The Chaos Swamp Lizard was in the best condition among its kind. It burrowed into the ground, its massive body incredibly agile, and in the blink of an eye, it had escaped dozens of kilometers away, never daring to return to the battlefield.
"boom!!!"
Jiang Mo faced two ancient ancestors of the Divine Descent alone, along with Ren Daoyi, unleashing the most extreme power within his body without any restraint. The three were utterly defeated and plunged into a desperate situation.
"It's time to finish."
With a cold voice, he declared his death. Jiang Mo couldn't care less about the Chaos Swamp Lizard's escape. His gaze swept across the void and he found that several Masters were already at the kill line. Dragging it out any longer would be pointless.
"open!"
As soon as the thought arose, an endless void portal suddenly appeared, enveloping the entire battlefield. Everyone was bewildered and their expressions changed drastically. They felt an extremely strong aura of death.
What exactly does Xuanzun want to do?
"call out--!"
The two from the Divine Descent Sect dared not linger and decisively retreated, using Blood Escape to escape in an instant. The other Masters, who reacted a beat slower, only felt their vision blur and the battlefield, which had been like ruins, was replaced by a vast and dark universe.
When they realized they were standing on a blue planet, everyone who came to their senses realized what had happened: Xuanzun had forcibly taken them to the outer heavens through a void array!
At the same time, to everyone's horror, Jiang Mo was hovering high above, his chest radiating a terrifying white light that condensed into a sphere as bright as the sun.
"?!"
"Boom!!!"
In that instant when time stood still, light swept across space, creating something unique throughout history.
The overwhelming heatwave was far more terrifying than the core of the sun, instantly melting space and obliterating countless figures within it, covering an area of thousands of kilometers.
"what!!!"
The piercing sound shook the void. Some people were burned beyond recognition, suffering unbearable pain, yet they had no idea where to escape to.
The high temperature was uniform everywhere—up, down, left, and right—and they simply couldn't make it across the distance of over a thousand kilometers.
"Pfft!!"
"Pfft!!!"
One cloud of blood mist after another evaporated, and as Jiang Mo burned with all his might, the masters fell one after another.
The blazing silver light lasted for more than thirty seconds, and Ren Daoyi, Wanfa Yuzhu, Jiuyou Zhenjun, and Chengtian Huangmu were all affected.
But these old monsters were ultimately ruthless and decisive. Rather than waiting to die, they self-destructed first to try and save their lives.
"Boom!!!"
"Boom!!!"
Not only their physical bodies, but also more than a dozen rare magical artifacts they carried became their weapons, all exploding and unleashing terrifying rays of light in space, accompanied by endless roars.
Amid the chaotic explosion, they disappeared without a trace.
Amidst the ruins of the Hengduan Mountains battlefield, a few panting individuals witnessed the most dazzling scene.
In the pitch-black depths of space, a white light streaked across the sky, like a giant meteor exploding in the heavens, creating boundless shockwaves that covered an area of immeasurable distance.
Nearly a minute passed before a familiar figure returned. Jiang Mo's clothes were stained with blood, and he maintained a certain rhythm in his breathing to relax his body, bringing the great battle to an end ahead of schedule.
He won.
Chapter 472 Likes to hide? Then don't come out.
"Mysterious Venerable...how is it?"
The Flying Immortal Master, panting wearily, inquired.
His old frame was almost falling apart in this battle. His wounds still retained the supernatural power of the enemy and could not heal for the time being. His entire right arm drooped down to the ground, as if it would break at any moment.
"The Masters we killed were insignificant; the most troublesome ones all escaped."
Jiang Mo said calmly, which was within his expectations. Those old monsters who had lived for five or six hundred years had a very deep symbiotic relationship with the secret realm. Their bodies had undergone countless transformations, making it too difficult to kill them completely.
He then gave a brief description of the space battle. Upon learning that they had self-destructed to escape, the Flying Immortal Master sighed slightly. It was something that couldn't be stopped by anyone.
"So, should we continue pursuing it?"
The person who asked this question was the Jade Pool Master.
Her face was pale, and a hideous gash appeared on her throat. Not long ago, her head had been severed in the fierce battle, but it had been sewn back on with true qi, and it was still bleeding.
"Chase."
Jiang Mo's eyes were icy, and his words were clear. He glanced at the Blood Python Demon Bull and the White-Winged Illusion Bird, who were bound by blazing silver chains not far away, and then looked at the Heavenly Mountain Wolf King beside him, whose head was half smashed and whose face was covered in blood. He instructed:
"Keep an eye on them, and wait for me to come back."
"Yes, please rest assured, Venerable Master, you can leave it to me."
The Wolf King of Tianshan said respectfully.
Its heart was in turmoil. Of the three ancient demon kings, two were injured and one had escaped, in addition to the three who had been injured by the Flying Immortal Master some time ago.
Only a few ancient demon kings remain alive in various parts of the Nine Provinces. If they are lucky, they might even be able to seize this opportunity to plunder their fiefdoms and unify the demon races of the four seas and eight wastelands.
Seeing that Jiang Mo was about to give chase, the Flying Immortal Master hesitated for a moment, then frowned and asked, "Have you thought this through?"
His implication was that continuing the pursuit might lead to a desperate fight in the secret realm, where those cornered individuals would unleash a world-destroying light and take them all with them.
"Go first."
Jiang Mo constructed another void portal, first targeting the Northwest Secret Realm of the Divine Descent Sect. A hurricane howled, and the two Masters leaped there with him.
On the vast, silent plateau, a flash of silver light suddenly fell, and three figures arrived at once.
Upon arriving outside the secret realm, several magic arrays were triggered, unleashing deadly attacks at close range, but these were destroyed by Jiang Mo's sword, leaving continuous shockwaves.
Without a doubt, this shows that it was left by the ancient ancestor who fled the battlefield a few minutes earlier, before he leaned over Qi Chi and escaped back to the secret realm.
"arrive!"
The Jade Pool Master was alarmed. The unknown secret realm beneath his feet was not recorded in historical records. It was the second stronghold of the Divine Descent Sect besides Mount Tai, and it had been sealed off so tightly that there was no way to enter.
"..."
Jiang Mo remained silent, lost in thought. He had heard about the feud between the Divine Arrival Sect and the Pegasus Clan from Yue Min, but he did not want to delve into it further, nor did he know whether this place was the ancestral home of the Pegasus Clan.
However, given the current situation, there is a 50% chance that the two residual Qi energies he tracked are located here and in the Himalayas.
After a brief deliberation, Jiang Mo made a decision: instead of charging into the secret realm, he opted for a more prudent approach. He planned to completely seal off the exits in this area, like blocking a rat hole, to completely trap the enemy inside.
Even his great victory on the battlefield did not go to his head. He knew that the light of destruction was a threat that could seriously injure him, and he was not confident that he could withstand it without breaking through to the seventh level of the Profound Fate Realm.
Moreover, if this place is indeed Yue Min's ancestral land, once he enters, he will most likely destroy the entire secret realm. It would be better to leave it for the future and let it resolve itself.
"Seal it away..."
After a long silence, Jiang Mo revealed his thoughts, and the Flying Immortal Master and the Jade Pool Master immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, how can we help you? We'll assist you."
"Use the Xuanwu Formation to block this passage. After that, I will set up a barrier and a void portal, ensuring they never have a peaceful day. As soon as they take half a step out, I will appear in person."
As long as Jiang Mo doesn't enter the secret realm, he has unparalleled suppressive power. He must make full use of his advantages and leave a backup plan in the outside world.
Not only this generation, but perhaps for several generations, the second stronghold of the Divine Descent Sect will not produce a single person who can rival him, and they don't have that much time left.
Upon hearing his arrangement, the Flying Immortal Master nodded slightly in agreement.
"What about me?" asked the Jade Pool Master, as she was not skilled in sealing techniques and could not be of any help in this regard.
"Let's go check on the other secret realms. They should all be sealed off. They're moving very fast."
"Alright, you two, I'll go first." The Jade Pool Master turned and left.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Several earth-shaking explosions rang out as Jiang Mo dismantled all the magic arrays set up outside the secret realm with his bare hands.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Flying Immortal Master took a deep breath, and his withered and decaying body gradually became full of new life, transforming into an old man with white hair at a speed visible to the naked eye, his face no longer as ferocious and ugly as before.
His condition was still not very good; he had only tried his best to improve to the peak he could recover from. Then, he slowly closed his eyes, resonated with the secret realm that coexisted with his body, borrowed power, and began to cast the secret technique—the Xuanwu Formation.
With a loud "boom!", boundless light condensed into a powerful aura, imprinted with mysterious and ancient patterns. These patterns linked together, resembling a lifelike Xuanwu (Black Tortoise), and were placed at the exit of the secret realm's passage, sealing it off.
"Buzz!"
Jiang Mo wasn't idle either. He toured the nearby area. With his cultivation of the Boundless Realm and advancement to the fifth level, he could clearly see all the boundary walls that connected this secret realm to reality. He could even touch them with his own hands, but he couldn't break them.
However, just being able to touch it was enough for him to do what he was about to do.
There are different ways to enter and exit both inside and outside the secret realm. Inside, one can also bypass the exit and use the Boundary-Breaking Shuttle to arbitrarily break through a boundary wall to transfer or smuggle across.
The Divine Descent Sect has a profound foundation. As one of the six strongest sects in history, it is impossible for it not to have a World-Breaking Shuttle. However, Jiang Mo did not want to give them such an opportunity.
"clatter...."
His right hand pressed silently against the boundary wall, and then a pale purple glow burst forth from his five fingers, spreading like wildfire and covering the entire boundary wall.
The entire process lasted for nearly fifteen minutes. Jiang Mo weakened the void barrier as much as possible in the form of a thin film, making it fit perfectly against the boundary wall.
He doesn't need to forcibly seal it away; all he wants is to discover it.
The void membrane here is extremely fragile. Once a boundary-breaking shuttle pierces through it, it will cause irreversible damage to these membranes at the same time.
No matter how far away they are, Jiang Mo can sense them instantly and come to kill them, giving them no chance to struggle.
Do you like to hide things?
Then we'll hide until the day our destruction comes!
"Wow!"
As Jiang Mo's eyes narrowed slightly, his right hand naturally left the boundary wall, forming a thin, almost non-existent, void membrane that was imperceptible to the naked eye.
By the time he returned to the vicinity of the secret realm, the Flying Immortal Master's arrangements had been successfully completed.
The Xuanwu Formation, one of the strongest defenses in the human world, completely blocked the passage.
"Boom!!!"
Jiang Mo then took action, urging his true qi to forge a barrier. About half an hour later, he and the Flying Immortal Master finally turned this unknown secret realm into a prison.
It was at this time that the Master of Yaochi returned, bringing news:
"Master Xuan, as you said, they have indeed hidden themselves and are not yet dead. However, the secret realm where Hai Kuoya is located cannot be closed due to the death of its master. Do you think we should take action?"
Hai Kuoya, a first-rate sect involved in this incident, is allied with the Samsara Palace and has a lineage spanning 2,300 years.
"Leave no one behind."
"What is rightfully yours, you shall take back by any means necessary."
"Ah."
After a brief exchange, the three parted ways again.
Jiang Mo and Fei Xian Yu Zhu successively headed to the secret realms where Cheng Tian Dao Zong, Huang Quan Ming Fu, Shen Lin Zong, and Lun Hui Gong were located, and followed suit.
During the long night, as the sealing process was underway, the two discussed the details of their previous battle. Jiang Moxin had some doubts and asked him about the words spoken by the Ancient Ancestor of Divine Descent.
“…”
The old man pondered deeply, his tone slightly wary, and said, "That person knew you were cultivating the Ancient Universe Physique and even told you that they had the cultivation techniques and scriptures you wanted?"
"Then it seems to be the Divine Descent Sect, which destroyed the lineage created by the Ancient Zhou Dao Lord. However, due to the great age of the time, I cannot be sure whether it is true or not."
"But what he meant by a wider world, a world beyond this world, sir, do you have any clue about it?"
Jiang Mo has read countless books from ancient times to the present. Special spaces, such as secret realms, were called blessed lands or grotto heavens by ancient cultivators.
In modern times, anyone with a modicum of common sense knows how dazzling the billions of stars above are, each a world as real as the planet beneath our feet.
What puzzled him was whether the Divine Descent Sect originated from the planet itself or from deep space in the universe.
If it's the former, it's not so difficult to handle; but if it really came from across the stars, the level of terror is unimaginable.
Just as his thoughts were drifting further away, and he was still trying to figure out why he couldn't find the ruins of the Divine Descent Sect no matter which timeline he went to, the voice of the Flying Immortal Master murmured again:
"Perhaps that's not an exaggeration. Based on my intuition, the ancient ancestor of the Divine Descent really wants to make a deal with you. The continuation of the secret realm and the sect is certainly important, but what I'm thinking is... could this be their last hope?"
"Hmm? Sir, what do you mean?"
