Chapter 1349: Chapter 522: The Empress Goes Online! You Can Always Rely on Me!
"What the hell, I thought it was a speed bump..."
Chen Mo frowned slightly.
The void Dao Power instantly vaporized the unknown Grandmaster, and the momentum continued unabated, slashing toward Yuan Junfeng.
The wave of Dao Power was extremely covert, formless and shapeless, Yuan Junfeng, who was pursuing, hadn’t noticed it. Suddenly, a mist of blood exploded in front of him, alerting him to the danger. He hastily halted his motion, and swiftly drew a circle in the air with his brush.
A Glazed Treasure Mirror appeared out of thin air, its entire body emitting radiant light, shielding him.
Boom—
The moment the Dao Power touched the mirror’s surface, the treasure mirror trembled violently, densely covered with black lines.
It lasted only five breaths before completely vanishing into nothingness, but it gave Yuan Junfeng a chance to catch his breath. Holding the brush in one hand and making a seal with the other, his figure dissipated like a bubble, narrowly avoiding the slash!
"Huff—"
The space twisted in the distance, and Yuan Junfeng’s figure appeared several zhang away, his chest heaving, eyes full of lingering fear.
As a Dao Master, he could sense how terrifying the power of that strike was! If not for someone suddenly bursting out to block the blow for him midway, he would have perished by now!
"This seems like the aura of Origin? There appears to be more than one?"
"Despite being a Second Grade Divinity, he can unleash such Ultimate Venerable-level techniques. This is truly incomprehensible... I thought he was just a lucky one favored by Dragon Qi to reach this far. Now, it seems I’ve underestimated him..."
A Heavenly Pride is known for their ability to challenge opponents beyond their Realm. He himself had defeated many stronger than him back in the day, which was nothing rare.
But the problem is—
Yuan Junfeng deemed himself a top First Grade, virtually invincible in the same Realm, yet he was pressured by this Second Grade greenhorn, something he found hard to accept!
No wonder Ling Yishan, also a Cloud Top Ranking, rated him merely "average," while placing significant importance on Chen Mo...
Even among Heavenly Pride, there is a difference!
"I must admit, you indeed have some skills. If given another half a century, you’d probably be unmatched across Jiu Zhou!"
"But unfortunately, you are still too young."
Yuan Junfeng floated in mid-air, his breath bursting out, rapidly sketching with the brush in his hand, ink diffusing in the air like a dazzling galaxy.
"I have reached the ’Returning to Truth’ Realm and single-handedly pushed the Divine Skill ’Turning Void into Reality’ to its limit!"
"That was your only chance. Since you didn’t seize it, you have no hope left now!"
Crack—
At the moment the painting was completed, accompanied by a clear sound, the surrounding space shattered like a mirror.
Through that "window," the vast cosmic void was visible behind, stars twinkling, galaxies swirling, exuding an endless and distant aura!
"This is..."
"Dao Domain?!"
Chen Mo couldn’t help but pause, surprised.
He was familiar with this place, having entered it as a Spiritual Body before. Inside, even time ceased to exist, leaving only pure void, a place where incautiousness leads to total assimilation!
He didn’t expect Yuan Junfeng to possess such a skill, capable of forcibly opening a passage to the Dao Domain!
"Ready to die?" Yuan Junfeng’s face turned pale, his lips curved with a brutal smile.
Before Chen Mo could react, a powerful suction force took hold of him, pulling him uncontrollably into the Dao Domain!
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Junfeng waved his large brush, and the fissure closed instantly as if nothing had ever happened!
"It’s finally over..."
Yuan Junfeng panted slightly, beads of sweat sliding down his temples.
Despite his cultivation, executing this move was no easy feat. Forcing open the boundary wall nearly exhausted all his Dao Power, but he finally resolved this trouble!
"His Majesty said Chen Mo usurped national destiny, shaking the Earth God, the root of all tumultuous phenomena!"
"To remedy the chaos, he must be slain. Bringing back his corpse would be a Heavenly Merit!"
"I meant to leave an intact body, but being pushed to this extent compelled me to use this move..."
"Fortunately, I didn’t let His Majesty down. Soon, he’ll be completely assimilated by the void, ultimately perishing, then everything will return to order."
Looking at the two groups still interlocked in internal fighting nearby, Yuan Junfeng frowned, his expression turning grim, "No idea where His Majesty found this bunch of useless people, unable to help and only creating chaos!"
He only knew His Majesty arranged personnel to kill Chen Mo, but was unaware of their identities.
However, there was no time to deal with them now; the Demon Suppression Department still had issues awaiting resolution.
Initially, his plan was to hold Chen Mo, retrieve the Array Map, and then process him together, meeting his objectives while clearing any suspicions and creating an alibi.
Unexpectedly, Chen Mo sensed it beforehand and arranged for experts to hold down the fort.
The situation was still unclear, so he had to check swiftly, even if risking exposure, he needed to get the Array Map!
Otherwise, if Ling Yishan reshapes his Dao Foundation, restoring Ultimate Venerable Realm strength, truly there would be no chance left!
Yuan Junfeng swallowed an Alchemy Pill, sitting cross-legged to meditate, his breath gradually steadied, his face reddening somewhat.
Just as he felt recovered enough and was about to leave, a familiar voice suddenly reached his ears:
"Did I permit you to leave?"
"Huh?!"
Yuan Junfeng’s hair stood on end, swiftly turning his head.
Two slender hands emerged from the void, gripping its edge, effortlessly tearing it like paper. Moments later, a tall figure stepped out slowly.
