Hiss!
Above the horizon, a massive black serpent’s silhouette instantly solidified, exuding a terrifying will that made the very void tremble.
The former ruler of the Syl continent—the Infinite Serpent—had finally seized this opportunity of cosmic ascension to completely transcend boundaries and arrive in the mortal world!
Suddenly, fear surged in the hearts of all the Syl people.
Previously, even the mere illusion of the Infinite Serpent was enough to awaken their deepest ancestral dread of giant serpents. Now, with its true form manifesting, the level of terror it brought multiplied exponentially.
Gazing upon the black serpent coiled amidst the starry sky, most ordinary people on the Syl continent nearly fainted in that very moment, oblivious to life and death.
Hoo! Hoo!
Almost simultaneously with its appearance, the primal forces of the entire continent surged and converged upon the giant serpent.
Its enormous vertical pupils gazed downward, and a mental message was transmitted: “Unknown being, despicable usurper, this continent belongs to me!”
“Why return, now that you’ve once let go?”
Wu Ming smiled faintly. The blue dragon roared continuously, and its sapphire-blue icy flames, as if alive, condensed their coldness inward, shifting into a deep purple hue.
Though no energy whatsoever leaked outward, the extreme cold it contained was more terrifying than ever before!
This was the authority of dominion—the mighty power of a seventh-level being.
Hiss!
Even the black giant serpent dared not be touched by the purple flames. Suddenly, the countless serpent shadows across the sky retracted, coalescing into a strangely alluring young man.
He wore a black robe, his face exuding an eerie charm, his skin pale, and his eyes possessing amber-colored vertical pupils.
“Do you think… this can threaten me?”
The black-robed youth roared: “This world has always been mine. It bears my deepest imprint!”
Boom!
Suddenly, the entire Syl continent trembled.
A black inverted triangular insignia appeared on the youth’s forehead, radiating black-purple light.
From the Syl continent itself, threads of primal force emerged, converging like rivers flowing into the sea, pouring into his forehead.
Even Wu Ming sensed hesitation in the Chaos Sea’s openness toward him, as if it were shifting toward the other side.
“Before leaving, you left sufficient measures behind?”
Wu Ming’s expression turned solemn: “You are not the world’s creator, yet you’ve hidden your imprint so deeply…”
“You don’t understand my terror at all!”
The black-robed youth sneered: “I will destroy your true body, crush your soul into fragments, and banish it into the nine layers of infernal hell, where you will suffer eternally as punishment for your trespass!”
“Primordial Force Torrent—Impact!”
With a wave of his hand, the Syl continent trembled. Bearing the power of an entire world, a chaotic torrent instantly engulfed the blue dragon.
Whoosh!
A flash of light, and from within a massive block of ice, Wu Ming’s figure slowly emerged.
“Seventh-level? Or rather… on the verge of breaking through to Great Luo?”
Just one clash allowed him to fully realize how formidable his opponent was.
Undoubtedly, the opponent also stood at the threshold of breaking through Great Luo, desperately needing massive accumulation.
Perhaps, this ascension of the Syl universe itself bore his hidden manipulations.
It was simply that, just as he was about to reap the rewards, Wu Ming came and plucked the fruit instead—an act that would provoke any being to fury.
…
“This feels increasingly strange!”
On the throne of the Suigu Heavenly Court, the Jade Emperor’s brow slightly furrowed: “This black serpent… I seem to recall it—it was a formidable ancient evil. Moreover, the power of these two beings might even rival mine!”
As the ruler of the Heavenly Court, and the divinely appointed monarch among divine pantheons, the Suigu Emperor’s cultivation was formidable, even among seventh-level beings he stood at the peak.
Yet at this moment, he could sense that the two beings currently clashing on the Syl continent each possessed power not inferior to his own!
At that moment, numerous deities from both East and West, who had previously schemed against the Syl continent, suddenly felt uneasy.
Fortunately, they hadn’t truly acted yet; otherwise, judging from the current situation, they might have indeed kicked a steel plate.
“However… these two beings don’t seem to follow the divine path!”
After observing for a while, Tao Zhu Gong suddenly remarked.
In this world, there were also cultivators, whose peaks could even reach the sixth or seventh level, possessing power equal to deities!
Within the Federation of the Great Chang Empire, there were several such ancient experts, whom even the descent of true gods could not overcome.
Otherwise, the Federation would have been destroyed countless times by divine beings.
Although in this world the divine path was mainstream, there also existed paths of transcendence no less formidable!
Previously, they hadn’t noticed, but once these two acted, such fluctuations could no longer be concealed.
“The divine path relies on the collective strength of multitudes, overwhelming and unstoppable. Other paths, such as the Daoist path, emphasize freedom and transcendence… they cannot be judged by the same standard!”
The Mazu goddess shook her head.
“Indeed, as with these two, wielding world permissions and fundamental forces with a mere wave of the hand, how are they any different from true gods?”
The assembled deities nodded in agreement.
Although they knew that the phenomenon of universal resonance occurred precisely because it was during the open period of the Chaos Sea, something impossible under normal circumstances, the deities still felt a complex mixture of emotions.
…
“The Infinite Serpent is indeed formidable!”
Wu Ming radiated purple flames like a small sun, inwardly murmuring.
It wasn’t just his opponent before him, but also the numerous gods secretly observing from the shadows that made him feel restricted.
After all, he still needed to maintain the form of William Wallace, and even his ultimate trump card—the Pantheon Temple—could not be deployed.
Even if he could suppress the immediate enemy, revealing his true capabilities might lead others to discover his secrets, resulting in more harm than gain.
“Moreover… the Infinite Serpent opposite me also seems rather strange!”
As Wu Ming pondered this, his eyes slightly narrowed.
Boom!
In the next instant, the Chaos Sea boiled completely, raining boundless primal forces downward like a curtain, isolating the entire continent.
“What are you worried about?”
The Infinite Serpent laughed maniacally: “The gaze of the Pantheon? But how about now? At this final moment of fusion, under the protection of the Chaos Sea, even the Supreme might not be able to break through the barrier…”
“Have you noticed?”
If he hadn’t sensed something amiss even after personally engaging the opponent, then the other wouldn’t deserve to be a seventh-level being.
Wu Ming raised his hand, and countless streams of pure light descended, transforming into the Five Elements, generating thunder: “Five Elements Unite—Celestial Thunder!”
Crackle!
In the sky, five differently colored lightning bolts appeared. The powers of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth flashed past, intertwining with each other, transforming into pure destructive force that descended.
Boom!
The lightning swept across, breaking through the many defenses of the Infinite Serpent transformed into the young man, directly striking his shoulder.
Buzz!
Purple energy scattered, revealing a charred black patch on the Infinite Serpent’s shoulder: “Daoist techniques? Methods of Eastern cultivators?”
He looked at Wu Ming before him, now with black hair and black eyes, his expression shifting slightly with caution: “Are you an Eastern cultivator?”
“Indeed!”
Wu Ming nodded: “Please, fellow Daoist, proceed to the next world!”
This final surge of primal force, isolating inside and outside, was also his heaven-given opportunity—at the very least, he could now unleash his full strength.
“I see. Reincarnation, then?”
The Infinite Serpent’s expression turned solemn: “You truly are meticulous…”
“The Dao is a narrow path—only through struggle can one obtain it!”
Wu Ming waved his hand, purple energy surging, as torrents of Daoist techniques emerged. Each spell was a supreme arcane art, refined through millennia by cultivators, even surpassing their wildest dreams.
Crackle!
Colorful torrents of Daoist techniques instantly engulfed the young man before him.
However, in an instant, the Infinite Serpent reappeared, his appearance refreshed, his aura not weakened in the slightest.
“It’s useless…”
He cackled: “Do you understand what the Ouroboros means? By constantly devouring its own tail, it undergoes cycles of death and rebirth—that is also my dominion!”
“Even if you can wound me, in the next moment I will regenerate as if nothing happened! What use are your attacks?”
The Infinite Serpent, transformed into the young man, laughed maniacally, stepping forward relentlessly.
“Regeneration through cycles? Dominion? In other words, the rule you command!”
Wu Ming multiplied into thousands, countless illusions appearing in the sky, dodging away instantly: “If that’s the case, then I can only seal you away!”
“Seal me away?”
The Infinite Serpent laughed as if hearing the funniest joke ever: “Seal me away? Can you even do it? With your strength alone!”
His true form was immensely vast, and with the dominion he commanded, he was essentially the ultimate survivor.
With such vast resources, to completely suppress and seal him would require an eighth-level Great Luo being; otherwise, it would be nearly impossible.
“With my strength alone!”
Wu Ming smiled mysteriously, a glow flashing from his forehead.
Buzz! Buzz!
Infinite transcendent light descended, illuminating the entire sky.
Within the milky-white radiance, a magnificent and grand palace slowly emerged.
No words could describe its brilliance and majesty; its very existence symbolized transcendence and reaching the other shore!
The Pantheon Temple!
After confirming there would be no leaks, Wu Ming finally resolutely unleashed his ultimate trump card!
Buzz! Buzz!
The Pantheon Temple roared, radiating an indescribable brilliance, as it suddenly plummeted downward.
“What… kind of artifact is this…”
The Infinite Serpent’s pupils dilated. With a scream, he instantly reverted to his true form—a colossal black serpent covering the sky, his vertical pupils gleaming strangely, his gaping maw opening wide, his sharp fangs warily targeting the Pantheon Temple.
“Suppress!”
With a flash of light, Wu Ming had already entered the Pantheon Temple, uttering the chilling two words.
Boom! Boom!
The primal force pool boiled, and the Pantheon Temple suddenly erupted with terrifying might, directly shattering the Infinite Serpent’s counterattacks. From its base surged an overwhelming suction force, instantly dragging the black serpent into the Pantheon Temple.
This seventh-level peak being, who commanded the dominion of cyclical rebirth and stood on the verge of Great Luo, was actually suppressed and sealed away in this manner.
