Maiden Galaxy

Elder Under The Pine swiftly formed hand seals. That desert mountain and plateau pressed against Chen Mo's body. This peak was enormous beyond compare, a prehistoric air clinging about it. When it appeared in this Little Thousand World, it seemed that this place had become wilderness.

Other than Spirit Treasures, the average magic treasure was of little import to a Lord Of Heaven, not very useful at all. Furthermore, to make Elder Under The Pine activate a magic weapon, that naturally would have to be at the level of a Spirit Treasure. This "Desert Mountain Seal" was categorized as a Heaven Earth level Spirit Treasure. It was obtained by Elder Under The Pine a hundred years ago when he killed a beast as he searched around the Connecting Valley.

When the Desert Mountain Seal appeared, the tens of thousands of Earthly Immortals in the Great Thousand World would be pulverized. In the past, Elder Under The Pine had used the Desert Mountain Seal to kill another Lord Of Heaven, and he rose to fame in the Cangwu Star Field. Consequently, he was also considered a hegemon in the Cangwu Star Field.

A single Earthly Immortal unexpectedly was capable of making him use the Desert Mountain Seal. This caught Elder Under The Pine's attention.

However, this was merely a praying mantis trying to stop a carriage, an ant trying to shake a tree.¹

Elder Under The Pine formed another hand seal, simultaneously pouring his magic energy as well as the power of his soul into the Desert Mountain Seal.

The barren hill was an enormous chain, full of a primordial might.

Chen Mo firmly resisted the weight of the Desert Mountain with one hand. A Star Crest appeared on his forehead, his Star Energy continuous and endless.

If not for the Thousand Year Star Energy he had, this Desert Mountain Seal might possibly have flattened him to smithereens.

The prehistoric beasts that had been hibernating on the desert mountain took shape as Elder Under The Pine formed hand seals. Some looked like red pythons but with six legs, four wings, and mouths that breathed fire; they were Fei Yi.² Others looked like hogs with white fur. Their fur was as fine as needles, sharp as blades; these were called "Hao Zhi."³ Others had enormous builds, thick fur and looked like tigers or lions. They had red eyes and teeth, growing a white scorpion-like tail; they were Suan Ji.⁴ There were more varieties, surprisingly more than a dozen.

They were all Primeval Chaos Fierce Beasts, and their Realm reached Reincarnation Realm.

The Fei Yi coiled its serpentine body and slithered towards Chen Mo like a column of flame.

The Hao Zhi let out a shriek, and its quills were launched like a storm.

The Suan Ji also pounced, thrusting its scorpion stinger.

The other Primeval Chaos Fierce Beasts also used their various abilities.

Chen Mo saw that the situation was extremely unfavorable. Even if he had three heads and six arms, he could not easily defend against these Primeval Chaos Fierce Beasts. With the Desert Mountain Seal bearing down from above and Primeval Chaos Beasts attacking from every direction, the might of Elder Under The Pine's magic treasures far exceeded Chen Mo's expectations.

Chen Mo pushed his left palm out.

Dual Modes Life And Death.

White and black qi of primordial chaos were unleashed from his palm. They swirled in the surroundings and formed a Dual Modes space, trapping all of the Primeval Chaos Fierce Beasts' attacks within. Following the eternal fluctuations in the Dual Modes' life and death, the savage Fierce Beasts let out wails. They were merely leftover Primeval Chaos True Spirits inside the Desert Mountain Seal. Unable to undergo the cycle of the Dual Modes Life And Death, they became dust one after another.

The Desert Mountain's pressure tottered on the edge of collapse. Chen Mo flipped his wrist and brought out the Bodhi Treasure Karma.

He swung the Treasure Karma.

A thousand green lights broke out of the Treasure Karma. The moment these green lights touched the Desert Mountain Seal, they transformed into a flourishing bodhi tree that unwaveringly propped up the mountain's pressure.

The Bodhi Treasure Karma was a Primeval Chaos Spirit Treasure. Naturally, Chen Mo had no need to fear the similarly ranked Primeval Chaos Spirit Treasure, Desert Mountain Seal.

Chen Mo used the Bodhi Treasure Karma to suppress the Desert Mountain Seal. Then, he withdrew, bringing out the Northern Dipper Gamma Ursae Majoris Bow, pulling back its string.

"Huh."

Elder Under The Pine was overwhelmed with shock.

This man was surprisingly capable of warding off the Desert Mountain Seal.

A Primeval Chaos Spirit Treasure?

Upon seeing that Bodhi Treasure Karma, Elder Under The Pine became even more infuriated. He was determined to kill Chen Mo.

An arrow formed of focused Star Energy drew a breathtaking rainbow as it shot straight towards Elder Under The Pine. Although Chen Mo had learned archery before, they were merely superficial techniques of the Outer Star Fields. This arrow was imbued with formidable Star Energy yet was otherwise nothing special.

Elder Under The Pine easily smashed it using the Ten Thousand Ancient Evergreen Flying Swords.

Chen Mo's figure flickered. The bow changed into a staff, and he launched an attack.

Elder Under The Pine had no way to control both Desert Mountain Seal and Flying Swords. He once again flicked a finger to attack with Heavenly Bamboo Green Thunder and immediately stepped back. Chen Mo's pace was oppressive, his iron rod like a dragon. Each swing rolled with foehn wind, making the Lord Of Heaven unable to help but feel chills.

Chen Mo's forehead shimmered with a Star Crest and used the Innate Skill, "Trampling." Though each attack appeared unable to touch his opponent, under the Trampling Innate Skill, his attack range promptly extended. Elder Under The Pine suffered several blows and immediately felt something was off.

The enemy's attacks clearly missed even the hem of his clothes, but the staff surprisingly pierced into his Primordial Spirit.

After several times, the old man was already injured.

Elder Under The Pine's complexion was pale. This was the first time he had been forced into a corner like this by an Earthly Immortal. He was very resentful in his heart. The staff-shadows abruptly multiplied. After being struck, Elder Under The Pine snorted. His eyes released an explosion of light as he used the Primordial Spirit ability, "Blue Armored God Of War." The old man's Primordial Spirit emerged from his body, transforming into a war god clad in blue armor and a helm. An indescribably formidable presence appeared with overwhelming force.

This Blue Armored God Of War was an ability a cultivator developed after training the Primordial Spirit, capable of converting the Primordial Spirit into substance, body into projection. This Blue Armored God Of War had followed Under The Pine through the Primordial Spirit Seven Divisions, Universe Origin Three Boundaries. Its martial intent was unfathomable and could be described as the old man's second Primordial Spirit. However, what was different was that this Primordial Spirit cultivated unrivalled power.⁵

One strike from the Primordial Spirit was equivalent to Earthly Star Three Calamities.⁶

This was the Lord Of Heaven old man's last trump card.

A Primordial Spirit projection ability capable of rivalling an Earthly Star.

When this Blue Armored God Of War appeared, it maneuvered above Chen Mo with inconceivable speed, sending its armored gauntlet barreling towards him. The intense punch-intent rolled like thunder, filled with primordial chaos.

Bang.

The Northern Dipper Staff rang against this punch. Chen Mo tumbled, his figure falling downwards.contemporary romance

The Bodhi Treasure Karma lost Chen Mo's spiritual energy, and the bodhi tree vanished. Chen Mo promptly collected himself. He moved his Divine Intent to first control the Bodhi Treasure Karma. Then, seeing the Blue Armored God Of War attack again, he used the Deva Eyes.

"Die…Limitless Savagery Fist!" The war god let out a kind of strange voice, filled with a harshness that shook the world.

Punch intent and voice, a two-pronged attack.

Elder Under The Pine was not idle either. Taking a small step backwards, his hands formed another hand seal. He activated his Flying Swords, magic treasures, Heavenly Bamboo Green Thunder and various other abilities to attack Chen Mo.

Gods And Demons Life And Death Wheel!!

Chen Mo threw a punch.

The Life And Death Wheel spun, and his punch contained the fury of gods and demons.

Their fists clashed.

Chen Mo combined the Book Of Changes Black Turtle and the Gods And Demons Wheel together, which were also insufferably tyrannical. This Blue Armored God Of War's attack was unable to seize an advantage. When their punches landed, they seemed to jolt the Little Thousand World like thunder. Cracks also formed in the dimension.

Elder Under The Pine's expression changed. This man's power was so frightening, for the Little Thousand World was actually unable to bear it.

Seeing that his magic treasures and Flying Swords were completely useless, like stones dropped into a lake, the old man's heart was in a panic. He once again used a natural magic treasure. This was an enormous stone shaped like a dish. Upon the stone were bloodmarks, and it exhibited an intense Yang blood-qi, like a burning flame.

This magic treasure was known as the "Blood Sacrifice Altar," refined from an ancient sacrificial altar. It had accompanied Elder Under The Pine for centuries, and this Blood Sacrifice Altar had been cultivated to the level of being a natural magic treasure. Just a little more, and it could become a Spirit Treasure.

The Blood Sacrifice Altar zipped towards Chen Mo when it appeared.

The stone altar's sinister blood-qi billowed, and a blood-light surrounded Chen Mo. The blood and flesh on his body were immediately consumed by the Blood Sacrifice Altar bit by bit. Suffering the altar's attack, Chen Mo's spiritual power began to ebb, and the Bodhi Treasure Karma also dimmed.

Elder Under The Pine cackled. His Blood Sacrifice Altar was but an extremely unorthodox magic treasure. It devoured Essence Blood and magic energy, refining them into its own power. As the target weakened, the Blood Sacrifice Altar grew stronger. Once activated, even a Lord Of Heaven could only flee in defeat.

No one in the Cangwu Star Field knew that Elder Under The Pine possessed this magic treasure because if it were to be discovered, his ordinarily seeming benign old man act would immediately be reduced to a Devil Ancestor of the Devil Paths. He could even suffer the pursuit of disgusted Star Generals.

Starting the moment that Elder Under The Pine activated this treasure, no cultivator or even a Star General could leave this place alive. In truth, many a Star General had spilled their blood and flesh and even died on the Blood Sacrifice Altar.

Demonic blood-qi gloomily howled. These blood-lights barreled towards Chen Mo straight on, leaving him unable to flee even if he wanted to.

The Blue Armored God Of War roared with laughter upon seeing this. Its Limitless Savagery Fist thundered with more power.

Though the Body of the Black Turtle possessed domineering defenses, it was unable to block the Blood Sacrifice Altar's blood-light.

Chen Mo was expressionless. He abruptly read an incantation, "Calling, calling out. Revealing, revealing all. Making heartfelt prayers. Dissolving, disappearing blame. Vanishing vanished blame. Eminent virtues appear…"

"This Old Man's Blood Sacrifice Altar can match the ‘Chi Devil Six Treasures.'⁷ Do you think chanting some prayers to Amitabha can purge this?" Elder Under THe Pine laughed.

The attack was very fierce.

Chen Mo finished the last incantation, and a golden light bloomed like a lotus. The blood-light covering him emitted a shriek. That blood-light was defeated like a withered flower when the golden light shone upon it. The golden light revealed countless brahmanistic scripts that wrapped up the Blood Sacrifice Altar like golden talismans, completely restricting it.

"Impossible."

Elder Under The Pine was mortified, "How can you have a trick like this."

This Lord Of Heaven was simply frightened out of his wits. How could an Earthly Immortal cultivator be able to counter and dispatch his abilities one after another. Elder Under The Pine felt that what he face was not an Earthly Immortal but a Lord Of Heaven. If Chen Mo reached his own Realm, Elder Under the Pine did not dare think himself able to live for long.

But this old man immediately realized he was overthinking.

Because Chen Mo would not let him live a second longer.

After the Blame Dispersing Words of the Seven Buddhas eliminated the disaster of the Blood Sacrifice Altar's light, the Star Manual Of Masters Gan And Shi reached its limit. The Star Crest on Chen Mo's forehead became a white one, Auntie's Innate Skill, "Invincible."

When Elder Under The Pine saw the Chen Mo's forehead Star Crest transform, he was astounded.

He had never seen such a thing before.

The Blue Armored God Of War's fists hurtled over, resounding with a thunderclap.

Chen Mo raised the Northern Dipper staff.

Bang.

The Northern Dipper and the Blue Armored God Of War clashed, but this was not the same as before. Chen Mo's attack did not stop. Instead, in a spurt of energy, Northern Dipper continued to sweep forth.

Phoenix Dark Rank.

A Gentleman Is Invincible!

Elder Under The Pine's Primordial Spirit God Of War blocked several dozen strikes in succession. This Primordial Spirit also showed a frightened expression.

Chen Mo's staff beat apart this Primordial Spirit projection.

When the Primordial Spirit ability broke, Elder Under The Pine promptly suffered serious injury. Under this injury, the Desert Mountain Seal and Flying Swords also showed an opening. Chen Mo flew over and attacked.

Elder Under The Pine could only see staff-shadows everywhere in his field of vision. Chen Mo's attacks were filled with an aggression that only Star Generals could have.

And that Star Crest on his forehead was especially blinding beyond compare.

Elder Under The Pine was completely unable to ward him off. Northern Dipper pounded him all over his body again and again. The Star Energy shook apart his magic energy protection and shattered his meridians and organs. In the end, it touched his Primordial Spirit.

The old man's face was ashen. In his heart, there was only terror, terror, and incredulous terror.

Bang.

An enormous noise.

Chen Mo's last strike rendered him into dust. Not even his Primordial Spirit was able to escape.

Lord Of Heaven.

Dead.
