Chapter 385: The Madness of the Ancestors |
The eight Lords waited calmly.
Among the Nine Emperors of the Naturally Born Primordial Lifeform Faction, ‘Initial Ancestor’ and ‘Mother of Space-Time’ were ranked among them due to their Undying and Indestructible nature. In terms of offensive capability, they were considered mid-to-lower tier among the Ancestors. The other seven, however, were all extremely terrifying in strength.
“It’s time.”
At this moment, the eight Lords stood ready to strike.
Across the entire Infinite Space, existences of the same level were watching from afar.
“Boom—”
Suddenly, the previously incomparably calm Initial Ancestor erupted with incomparably dazzling radiance. Endless light enveloped an immensely vast region! At the same instant, thirty-five Ancestors appeared within the area illuminated by that light.
The Ancestors who had originally been hidden all revealed themselves.
A total of one hundred and five Ancestors had completely gathered!
“Destroy the Cultivator Lords!”
“Crush them!”
This time, the Naturally Born Primordial Lifeform Faction had long prepared a plan. The moment they assembled, they launched a frenzied, all-out assault without holding anything back! The Supreme-Level Power controlled by each of the one hundred and five Ancestors, through simple coordination, surged like a boundless tide, engulfing the eight Lords of the Cultivator Faction!
Rumble~~~
The power and domains of the eight Lords, under Yuan’s formation control, resisted with full force. Yet they only managed to slightly obstruct the attack before the endless terrifying force fell upon Wu Lan and Luo Feng.
“This level of might—” Jin Lord, Momman Lord, Minghuang Lord, and Naigu Lord all changed expressions.
Before the absolute power of over a hundred Ancestors working together, unless one possessed terrifying life-preserving abilities, they would be completely destroyed! The Main Battle Avatars of the four of them simply could not withstand such might.
Yuan and Star Light Lord, when facing such force, could only evade.
But in this collective clash… they could dodge, yet the other Lords could not!
“Boom—”
Luo Feng and Wu Lan both felt an infinitely heavy pressure crushing down upon them.
“Hahaha, exhilarating, truly exhilarating.” Wu Lan laughed loudly. He even attempted to intercept more of the incoming force. His massive body formed from the Primordial Material Path was continuously sustaining injuries, yet he did not care in the slightest.
“Focus on Luo Feng!” The Ancestors deliberately avoided Wu Lan, so even though Wu Lan tried to intercept, he only blocked about half of the incoming force.
The remaining half fell upon Luo Feng.
Various forms of Supreme-Level Power struck Luo Feng’s body freely, eroding, destroying, and tearing him apart.
“The pressure is quite high!” The Protective Energy Layer on Luo Feng’s surface was repeatedly penetrated. One Hundred and Eight Million Sources replenished it frantically, while numerous forces tore and damaged his body.
Cracks split across Luo Feng’s body, and blood dyed parts of him red. His injuries were clearly far more severe.
However, Luo Feng’s physical body only accounted for one portion of his energy, while the One Hundred and Eight Million Sources accounted for ten portions! Even with severe bodily damage, his vitality was already terrifying. Even if destroyed, he could recover from nothingness. Combined with the recovery from the One Hundred and Eight Million Sources, his physical condition remained within bearable limits.
Instead, the consumption of the ‘Protective Energy Layer’ was quite significant.
“In one breath, about five percent of my energy reserves are consumed.” Luo Feng sensed it.
Previously, when facing seventy-three Ancestors within a battle formation, Luo Feng only consumed about one percent of his energy reserves per breath. Now it had increased fivefold! Clearly, as the power rose, the damage to Luo Feng increased exponentially.
If the power reached a certain threshold, even Luo Feng’s Main Battle Avatar would be shattered.
“Luo Feng actually held on?” The Ancestors led by the Nine Emperors were secretly shocked. From their attacks, they could tell that Luo Feng’s body was far less resilient than Wu Lan’s, and his injuries were clearly more severe.
Yet Luo Feng endured, maintaining his peak state the entire time.
“You should also try the methods of us Lords!”
A voice echoed among the Ancestors.
Momman Lord burned his Main Battle Avatar, causing the vast space-time where the Ancestors stood to transform instantly into countless musical notes, vibrating violently. The entire space-time became a song, resonating within the minds of every Ancestor.
An invisible attack, targeting both body and soul.
It was a group attack—no Ancestor could evade it and could only withstand it head-on.
The dozen or so Ancestors who had been severely injured previously had only partially recovered after ten days of rest with assistance from their companions. Among them, three still had heavy injuries, and under Momman Lord’s attack, their injuries immediately worsened.
“Haha, this time we’ll definitely kill a few more Ancestors!” Jin’s voice rang out as well. All his burning power transformed into thirteen black spheres. These thirteen black spheres appeared within the region of the Ancestors and instantly erupted with power, annihilating the surrounding vast area.
Immediately afterward, dazzling golden lightning descended! Bolts of golden lightning locked onto enemies—there was no escape!
……
“No need to bother.”
“Destroy them as quickly as possible!”
As Momman, Jin, and Minghuang unleashed their attacks in succession, the Nine Emperors remained completely unmoved. They had already understood the methods of the Lords and naturally had countermeasures prepared.
They could not defend against these attacks—so they simply chose not to. They arranged for the Endless Ancestor, together with the Mother of Space-Time and Initial Ancestor, to rescue some heavily injured Ancestors. As for the remaining six extremely powerful members of the Nine Emperors, they led the other Ancestors in a full-force assault.
“Wu Lan!”
Accompanied by a roar that shook heaven and earth—
The Infinite Serpent Ancestor roared. Its massive body instantly turned illusory, expanding a thousandfold, ten-thousandfold, becoming far larger than all the other Ancestors combined.
It bore the name ‘Infinite’! It could indeed grow infinitely large, even exceeding the size of a World Cluster, and could merge with the infinite void, becoming truly Undying and Indestructible.
However, in that state, it possessed no offensive power.
“Whoosh!”
First, it expanded into an illusory, massive form, enveloping Wu Lan—then instantly solidified and shrank.
A colossal serpent body completely trapped Wu Lan within its abdomen! At the same time, two terrifying forces merged into the serpent’s body—one from the Annihilation Ancestor, who transformed into a mass of black light, coiling around half of Wu Lan’s body; the other from the Yanhuo Ancestor, who manifested like a flaming star, binding the other half of Wu Lan.
The Infinite Serpent Ancestor, Yanhuo Ancestor, and Annihilation Ancestor—all three specialized in binding. Working together, even Wu Lan’s formidable body could not break free.
Previously, the Yanhuo Ancestor had swallowed Wu Lan and trapped him for about one breath. Now, with the three joining forces, Wu Lan could not escape at all.
“Break!!!” Wu Lan struggled with all his might. Yet all three possessed Lord-level combat power, and with their coordination, no matter how strong Wu Lan was, he could not break free.
“Destroy Luo Feng!”
At this moment, two Ancestors were heavily injured and retreated into the Initial Ancestor’s body. The Infinite Serpent Ancestor and the other two restrained Wu Lan. Exactly one hundred Ancestors remained! These hundred Ancestors attacked collectively—their Supreme-Level Power intertwined, surging toward Luo Feng!
Although they lacked the leadership of the three powerful members of the Nine Emperors—Infinite Serpent Ancestor, Yanhuo Ancestor, and Annihilation Ancestor—the overall strength of the hundred Ancestors dropped by at least twenty percent. Yet the might still made Luo Feng’s heart tremble.
“Space-Time Maze!”
Star Light Lord made his move.
Among the Ancestors, the one with the highest mastery of space was the Infinite Serpent Ancestor. It had repeatedly clashed with Star Light Lord in secret. Although at a disadvantage, it still interfered with Star Light Lord’s space-time techniques.
Now, however, the Infinite Serpent Ancestor had to fully suppress Wu Lan within its body. Wu Lan’s resistance was too fierce. Under these conditions, it could not fully control space.
As for the Mother of Space-Time? Her mastery of space was inferior to the Infinite Serpent Ancestor, and her mastery of time was far inferior to Star Light Lord.
Rumble—
Under the terrifying power of a hundred Ancestors, the Space-Time Maze shattered piece by piece. Yet it still forcibly diverted thirty to forty percent of the power. The remaining force then struck the battle formation.
After being further weakened by Yuan’s formation, the force that finally reached Luo Feng was only about ten percent stronger than before—still within his tolerable range.
“That Star Light Lord!” The Ancestors felt a headache.
With the Infinite Serpent Ancestor occupied suppressing Wu Lan, Star Light Lord could unleash his space-time techniques freely!
“Boom—”
Amid the overwhelming power of the Ancestors, an infinitely towering figure stepped forward and arrived before Luo Feng in a single stride.
Its body was enormous—several times larger than Wu Lan! It was covered in black-golden scales, with massive razor-sharp wings. A vast multicolored radiance surrounded it, while endless black mist filled its surroundings.
“Gigantic God Emperor! Primordial Beast Ancestor! Black Tide Ancestor!”
Luo Feng recognized them at a glance.
The immense multicolored domain was the transformation of one of the Nine Emperors—the Primordial Beast Ancestor. Its body itself was the most terrifying domain in the Infinite Space! Within its domain, even Star Light Lord could not mobilize a single trace of spatial power.
Upon closer inspection, the vast multicolored domain was actually a massive, fat beast covered in multicolored fur.
Every part of the domain was its fur—its body. Naturally, no other powerhouse could control any spatial power within it. Even Star Light Lord could only rely on timelines to escape this domain.
Outside the multicolored domain, the endless black mist was the manifestation of the Black Tide Ancestor’s body.
The Black Tide Ancestor transformed into an endless calamity of black tides—a disaster-type domain. Though its suppression was weaker than that of the Primordial Beast Ancestor, it brought various calamities upon enemies.
With the ‘Black Tide Calamity Domain’ and the ‘Primordial Beast Ancestor Domain’ layered together, combined with the most terrifying physical body—this state of the Gigantic God Emperor had no weaknesses.
“Bang—”
Carrying the immense domains, it tore through space and arrived before Luo Feng.
“Get lost!” Luo Feng slashed with his blade. The blade light surged violently, yet after passing through the Black Tide Domain and then the even stronger multicolored domain, it was completely submerged—never even touching the Gigantic God Emperor’s body.
The Gigantic God Emperor arrived before him. Its massive arms embraced forward, its enormous wings enveloping him. The multicolored and black tide domains flooded over Luo Feng.
“This domain—”
Luo Feng did not care about the calamities of the Black Tide Domain—his endless vitality could resist them.
But the binding force of the Black Tide Domain, combined with the overwhelming multicolored radiance, made every movement of his feel incomparably difficult. As the Gigantic God Emperor’s arms and wings closed in, Luo Feng could not evade and was instantly seized in an embrace.
Under the siege of a hundred Ancestors, the battle formation of the Lords was already under immense strain.
With the combined efforts of the Gigantic God Emperor and the other two, and with Luo Feng’s Movement Technique inferior to Star Light Lord’s, he could neither dodge nor escape while resisting the encirclement.
In a single exchange, Luo Feng was entangled by the three of them.
“Good!”
“This is exactly targeting the two with the strongest bodies!”
The Ancestors were invigorated.
Wu Lan and Luo Feng were the most capable of resisting power among the eight Lords. Their role in the battle formation was immense—especially Luo Feng, who could rapidly restore his companions to peak condition!
To deal with Luo Feng and Wu Lan, the Infinite Serpent Ancestor and the others alone had not been enough before. Even with the Infinite Serpent Ancestor, Annihilation Ancestor, and Yanhuo Ancestor working together, they could only guarantee trapping one.
Only with the Gigantic God Emperor and the other two working together could they ensure trapping the other Lord.
“Whoosh.”
After trapping Luo Feng, the Gigantic God Emperor and the other two immediately retreated, as their massive size and vast domains interfered with the surrounding Ancestors’ siege.
With this retreat, they withdrew into the midst of the Ancestor group.
“Trapping me?”
Suppressed by the combined efforts of the three, Luo Feng entered the midst of the Ancestors, his eyes turning cold.
“Then explode for me!!!”
In an instant, Luo Feng’s physical body vanished.
His body transformed into energy, completely pouring into the One Hundred and Eight Million Sources! Originally, the One Hundred and Eight Million Sources had already been fully saturated with energy. With the forced influx of his physical body’s energy, they suddenly contracted.
Then—
They erupted into an infinitely dazzling energy storm! In an instant, it tore apart all restraints and bindings!
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!!!!
