Chapter 795: Have You Arrived?

The original formation dissipated without a host—it had been a gift from the Tianku Sect Master to his subordinates. Now that the Tianku Sect Master himself had taken action, formations were of no concern to him!

“Demon Ancestor, I’ve long heard of your arrogance and audacity, and it seems the rumors are true. A newly ascended Chaos Realm cultivator like you, barely seasoned in the ways of cultivation, dares to provoke me so brazenly?” The Tianku Sect Master was truly enraged. Though he didn’t particularly value them, those five Unity Realm subordinates had still been killed right before his eyes—this was nothing short of utter disrespect.

At his level, humiliation was absolutely intolerable. As his fury surged, the vast void around them began to collapse. Yet, the space around the Demon Ancestor remained eerily calm, his cold gaze fixed on the distant Tianku Sect Master.

From start to finish, the Demon Ancestor had shown nothing but indifference—not even a trace of mockery.

“Demon Ancestor…” The Tianku Sect Master’s mind raced through the detailed intelligence he had on this figure.

The Demon Ancestor was infamous for his unyielding pride.

Legends spoke of how, upon arriving at the Grand Void Heaven Palace, he had disdained even his fellow disciples, boldly declaring himself the “Demon Ancestor.” Back then, when he was merely at the peak of the Unity Realm, such a title had been considered sheer arrogance. After all, in a place like the Grand Void Heaven Palace, few dared to claim the mantle of “Ancestor”!

Dongbo Xueying, though revered as the “Dongbo Emperor” in his home universe, would never have the audacity to flaunt such a title openly within the Grand Void Heaven Palace.

When one’s strength is lacking, it’s best to remain low-key.

But the Demon Ancestor was different.

Back then, he had provoked countless Unity Realm experts from the Grand Void Heaven Palace into challenging him. The disciples of the Grand Void Heaven Palace were no ordinary cultivators—those who specialized in the Dao of Rules and Mysteries were especially formidable, and the elites among them were even more exceptional. Yet, not a single one of them had managed to defeat the Demon Ancestor!

Not long after, the Demon Ancestor broke through to the Chaos Realm, brimming with ambition to challenge the Island Master of Heart Lake. However, to his dismay, the long-secluded Island Master emerged from his retreat having already reached the ultimate realm of cultivation—the Cosmic Deity Realm!

If the Demon Ancestor was considered a peerless genius—having reached the peak of the Unity Realm in his home universe and swiftly ascended to the Chaos Realm after joining the Grand Void Heaven Palace—then the Island Master of Heart Lake was a transcendent existence even among the Five Sacred Worlds and the Chaos Void. With access to the vast archives of the Grand Void Heaven Palace, he had achieved enlightenment and ascended to the Cosmic Deity Realm in a single epiphany.

“He is the Hall Master of the Punishment Hall in the Grand Void Heaven Palace. I’ve heard he once defeated the Hall Master of the Heavenly Water Hall, only to be effortlessly crushed by the Hall Master of the Inquiry Heaven Hall later,” the Tianku Sect Master mused silently. “His breakthrough to the Chaos Realm was relatively recent, and the gap between him and the Hall Master of the Inquiry Heaven Hall is still vast. Hmm…”

In truth, the Demon Ancestor had been in the Chaos Realm for quite some time. But to an ancient being like the Tianku Sect Master, it was still a short span.

…

Though the thoughts seemed lengthy, they flashed through his mind in an instant.

The Tianku Sect Master decided to act. He refused to believe that his eons of cultivation would be inferior to a newly ascended junior.

“Rules and mysteries are just flashy tricks. I’ll show you the folly of your arrogance!” The Tianku Sect Master’s voice boomed across the void as endless rain began to pour from the chaotic skies—torrents of black water cascaded down in a deluge.

Dongbo Xueying and Luo Hai both sensed the terrifying power within the rain.

Yet the Demon Ancestor remained unmoved. A frigid aura erupted around him, spreading outward and transforming the surroundings into a vast expanse of glacial land. The black rain froze solid upon contact.

“Your miniature cosmos is inferior to mine,” the Demon Ancestor stated coldly.

“Hmph.”

The Tianku Sect Master responded by thrusting out a skeletal, withered hand—a claw-like palm that moved with eerie silence, disturbing nothing in its path. Yet the Demon Ancestor’s expression grew solemn. He knew that despite the Tianku Sect Master’s crude combat techniques, his sheer battle prowess was monstrous after countless eons in the Chaos Realm.

The Demon Ancestor countered with a palm strike of his own. His hand was crystalline and translucent, radiating the condensed power of his miniature cosmos. The full might of his self-created Chaos Realm technique, the “Ten Thousand Demon True Body,” surged forth.

**Boom!**

Their palms collided, sending countless black fissures ripping through the void. Where the cracks appeared, all energy and space ceased to exist.

Even with the Demon Ancestor’s protection, Dongbo Xueying and Luo Hai felt their souls shudder violently from the aftershock.

Both the Tianku Sect Master and the Demon Ancestor staggered slightly, each taking a small step back.

“What?” The Tianku Sect Master was stunned. “His physical strength is on par with mine? My body has been tempered for eons, yet he…” He could tell the Demon Ancestor had matched him purely through raw power, without resorting to any underhanded techniques.

Among Chaos Realm experts, the Tianku Sect Master’s physical strength was considered formidable—ranking in the upper-middle tier was no small feat, given that every Chaos Realm cultivator was extraordinary in their own right.

“My Ten Thousand Demon True Body is still too weak. Even combined with the power of my miniature cosmos, I can’t suppress the Tianku Sect Master,” the Demon Ancestor frowned. “He has many vile techniques at his disposal. Even if I gain an advantage, it won’t be decisive.”

“He excels in rules and mysteries, yet I can’t even overpower him physically. Even if I unleash everything, victory is impossible,” the Tianku Sect Master reluctantly admitted to himself.

…

“Leave,” the Tianku Sect Master commanded coldly.

“Leave?” The Demon Ancestor’s voice was icy. “I said it before—all void creatures across the 289 Chaos Lands are to be exterminated without exception.”

“I will order their immediate withdrawal,” the Tianku Sect Master replied indifferently. “As for how many you can kill, that depends on your skill.” With the void creatures scattered across so many lands, even the Demon Ancestor couldn’t hunt them all down.

“Killing them is trivial. The robe you’ve been refining must also be destroyed,” the Demon Ancestor pressed.

The Tianku Sect Master’s expression twisted violently.

The robe?

He had spent countless years gathering materials and refining it. Now, after harvesting fear and resentment from over two hundred Chaos Lands to infuse into the garment—his masterpiece, which he had even proudly named the “Tianku Sacred Robe”—was nearly complete. Once finished, it would amplify his strength by over fifty percent.

The robe was already ninety percent complete, requiring only a final infusion of sufficient hatred and terror to fully manifest.

“You know about it?” The Tianku Sect Master’s face contorted with fury. “So you’ve been spying on me.”

“I’ve been investigating for some time,” the Demon Ancestor said coldly. “Personally, I wouldn’t care about your little project. But the laws of the Grand Void Heaven Palace are clear—any artifact nurtured through the suffering of countless lives must be eradicated!”

“You think you can stop me?” The Tianku Sect Master sneered.

Abandoning the two hundred lands meant nothing to him. The deaths of his subordinates were inconsequential. But the Tianku Sacred Robe? He had poured too much of his soul into it. Even if the Bone Ancestor himself ordered him to cease, he would refuse. For a true powerhouse, personal strength was everything!

“Yes. Me.” The Demon Ancestor’s eyes grew colder, his killing intent surging. Though victory was uncertain, he was ready to fight—to slay the Tianku Sect Master in a battle of life and death.

**Rumble—**

A profound aura descended, and endless bones materialized across the void. The glacial land and black rain vanished, replaced by an endless expanse of skeletal terrain.

Dongbo Xueying and Luo Hai stared at the boundless bone plains, their throats dry with awe. They had a guess as to who had arrived.

In the distance, a figure emerged.

His long white hair cascaded over his shoulders, and though his features bore the marks of age, his handsome visage was still evident. He wore resplendent white robes.

The white-robed elder gazed at the Demon Ancestor from afar. “Demon Ancestor of the Grand Void Heaven Palace, take your people and leave.”

“Oh?”

The Demon Ancestor’s eyes blazed with battlelust. “Bone Ancestor, a mere avatar won’t intimidate me. Fighting two against one? Hahaha! This just got more interesting!”

With that, multiple figures stepped out from around the Demon Ancestor—a shadowy crimson form, a towering brute, a scaled monstrosity, a sinister and alluring presence…

Six avatars, each radiating immense power, took their positions around his true form.

The Demon Ancestor’s laughter bordered on madness. “The six avatars of my Ten Thousand Demon True Body may not yet be perfected, but they’ll suffice for this fight. Come!”

Behind him, Dongbo Xueying and Luo Hai held their breaths.

What had started as a confrontation with the Tianku Sect Master had now escalated to involve even the Bone Ancestor—a supreme existence of the cosmos.

“Father, are you here yet? The battle’s growing more intense. If this keeps up, I might get caught in the crossfire,” Luo Hai transmitted urgently to his father. He had sent a distress call the moment the Tianku Sect Master reached for them.

A voice chuckled in his mind. “Hah! I’ve been here for a while. The Grand Void Heaven Palace’s Demon Ancestor is quite the character. Let’s enjoy the show.”
