Chapter 1009 - 434: Divine Mountain Remnant Body (Part 2)

Ning Qi and Saint Ancestor, Sea Ancestor, naturally also noticed the void in the Sea of Realms in the distance.

Ning Qi frowned slightly, he had underestimated Mountain Ancestor’s methods, not expecting the other party to be able to track him to the True Martial Spirit Realm!

"Ning Qi, oh Ning Qi, I have to thank you. Everything you did before was to fulfill my plans. Now I will completely devour that world and take the final step!"

Mountain Ancestor laughed wildly.

He was confident that if he could swallow the world within that void, his achievements would far exceed the goals he had previously aimed for.

The Dharma Seal in Mountain Ancestor’s hand transformed, and the entire illusion of Buzhou Mountain appeared like a giant ship floating in the Sea of Realms, heading towards the newly revealed True Martial Spirit Realm in the distance.

"Boy, quickly stop him!"

Saint Ancestor and Sea Ancestor had not expected Mountain Ancestor to have such a move.

Earlier, they were relieved as Ning Qi had saved the two realms, but now they couldn’t help but feel enormous anxiety.

Yet Ning Qi did not show the same worried expression as the two ancestors.

He said, "Have you tried attacking his location?"

Saint Ancestor and Sea Ancestor nodded.

"We’ve tried, but there seems to be a special barrier inside the illusion of Buzhou Mountain, even harder to break than the world’s barrier."

"Moreover, as it becomes more compact, its barrier also becomes thicker, and combined with the various forces within, our attacks almost cannot reach it."

Ning Qi said, "Nothing is impossible, follow me."

After speaking, a tree root emerged in the palm of his hand.

He and Saint Ancestor, Sea Ancestor flew towards the sky, the root in his hand striking towards the illusion of Buzhou Mountain.

Seeing Ning Qi’s movement, Mountain Ancestor smirked disdainfully:

"It’s useless, once Buzhou Mountain and Jianmu were symbiotic, but in the end, Jianmu is a tree planted by Buzhou Mountain, how could it not have a way to suppress its capability to traverse?"

As he finished speaking, the entire illusion of Buzhou Mountain strangely began to shrink.

Rumble!

A dreadful roaring sound echoed from within the Sea of Realms.

The entire illusion of Buzhou Mountain stopped outward expansion and instead began to compress inward dramatically.

Due to this contraction, the various suppressive forces within it soared once again.

But around Ning Qi and the other two, the tree trunk continued to emit creaking sounds of sturdiness, showing no indication of breaking.

Saint Ancestor and Sea Ancestor became even more worried.

However, Ning Qi remained calm.

As if acting indifferently, the root in his hand continued to reach towards the internal space of Buzhou Mountain.

The root touched the internal space and, under the gaze of the observers, drilled a root hole.

That root kept writhing and growing, gradually expanding, taking the space supported by the tree trunk opened by Ning Qi and the other two, ascending together.

Double-faced Mountain Ancestor gazed at this scene, his pupils slightly narrowed.

As the illusion of Buzhou Mountain swiftly shrank, the root’s speed at drilling seemed to slow down as well.

The expression on Mountain Ancestor’s two faces slightly relaxed.

An unknown amount of time passed, and the illusion of Buzhou Mountain, which was once larger than the Spirit Realm, shrank to the size of a small hill.

It was also not far from the location of the True Martial Spirit Realm.

The root in Ning Qi’s hand seemed to become weak and powerless, unable to advance further.

He and Saint Ancestor, Sea Ancestor, remained thirty zhang away from Mountain Ancestor!

"Haha, indeed the legacy didn’t deceive me, even if you’ve completely mastered the Seed of Jianmu, you can’t possibly oppose me!"

Mountain Ancestor actually had never fully witnessed the power of the Seed of Jianmu, nor had he truly mastered Jianmu, but from the legacy he obtained, he knew ways to suppress Jianmu.

However, in the next moment, Ning Qi chuckled lightly and said, "Is that so?"

In his hand, the root of the Enlightenment Realm Tree suddenly strained, and the previously weak root burst forth with unprecedented power as if it had taken a potent tonic.

Ning Qi and the two ancestors rapidly approached Mountain Ancestor atop the mountain peak.

"Impossible, how can this be? The legacy I received can’t be wrong!"

Double-faced Mountain Ancestor showed an incredulous expression, unable to believe everything he was seeing.

But everything under Ning Qi’s control had yet to stop changing.

Inside Buzhou Mountain, countless roots that Mountain Ancestor had previously summoned spontaneously appeared.

Now, they seemed like squads of soldiers, awakened by some command.

Whether it was the illusion of Buzhou Mountain summoned by Mountain Ancestor’s secret technique or these black roots inside.

In truth, they were projections of reality, not non-existent.

They were a projection of the real power of Buzhou Mountain, cast into this Sea of Realms.

At this moment, those seemingly illusory roots all flew towards Ning Qi’s hand and the nearby tree roots and trunks, converging like rivers into the sea.

The entire illusion of Buzhou Mountain seemed to suddenly lose part of its power, this power absorbed by Ning Qi for himself.

Mountain Ancestor watched, his eyes nearly bursting with rage, never expecting that Ning Qi could still resist his existence inside the illusion of Buzhou Mountain.

Even what Saint Ancestor and Sea Ancestor couldn’t do, Ning Qi was doing, Mountain Ancestor truly didn’t understand why this was happening.

And now he was more worried, not about the roots that were lost, but rather about Ning Qi and Saint Ancestor, Sea Ancestor, who were continually closing the distance to him.

Double-faced Mountain Ancestor’s eyes seemed to become blood-red in an instant.

"No choice, you’ve forced me!"

Never before seen, the double-bodied double-faced Mountain Ancestor separated from the summit of Buzhou Mountain, stepping into the Sea of Realms.

For the first time, he set foot outside the Sea of Realms.

Within the Sea of Realms, black water and gray mist surged together, creating small ripples, like waves rising from the water.

Mountain Ancestor appeared within the Sea of Realms, also upon the outer wall of Buzhou Mountain’s illusion.

His four eyes gazed eerily in four directions of the Sea of Realms, not focused on Ning Qi.

His figure visibly paused but quickly adapted.

Suddenly, his double-faced Dharma Aspect expanded within the Sea of Realms, matching the smaller illusion of Buzhou Mountain in size.

"Seize!"

Mountain Ancestor shouted, fiercely embracing the illusion of Buzhou Mountain with four giant hands.

Instantly, the entire illusion of Buzhou Mountain began to shrink rapidly, continuously compressing.

The root in Ning Qi’s hand paused, originally intended to lead the two ancestors toward Mountain Ancestor at the peak, only to find Mountain Ancestor leaving the illusion of Buzhou Mountain.

Now, only Ning Qi and the two ancestors remained within the illusion of Buzhou Mountain.

At this moment, Mountain Ancestor seemed like a giant, compressing the entire illusion of Buzhou Mountain into a cone-shaped miniature model, placing it in his hand.

"Call forth the real into the illusion!"

Mountain Ancestor’s double-faced Dharma Aspect, holding the illusion of Buzhou Mountain within the Sea of Realms.

In his palm, the illusion of Buzhou Mountain emitted a ripple-like wave, seemingly summoning something within the Sea of Realms.

In the mysterious void, a response seemed to resonate from a direction of the Sea of Realms, emitting a faint low hum.

Churning sound!

At this moment, this Sea of Realms felt stirred, as if a giant entity was turning within the sea, converging toward this place, and its speed reached an extreme.

Ning Qi saw this and seemed to realize something.

In a few breaths, a fragment of a mountain body came flying from afar.

Initially immense, comparable to the Spirit Realm, but as it crossed the Sea of Realms, it continually shrank, ultimately becoming the same size as the small mountain model in his hand.

Swoosh!

The incomplete mountain body was about to fly into Mountain Ancestor’s palm, merging with the illusion of Buzhou Mountain.

Ning Qi sensed a terrifying crisis, and the root in his hand also broke out with full force, swiftly crashing through the seals and various suppressive powers.

Finally, before the incomplete real mountain and the illusion merged, Ning Qi and Saint Ancestor, Sea Ancestor broke through the wall from within the illusion of Buzhou Mountain.

The three of them also appeared within the Sea of Realms.

Immediately, Saint Ancestor and Sea Ancestor were assaulted by the energy of the Sea of Realms, struggling to maintain balance.

Sea Ancestor quickly adapted, while Saint Ancestor took a little longer to truly regain balance.

They both looked at Ning Qi with a hint of amazement, for Ning Qi wasn’t affected at all.

But that incomplete mountain had already merged with the illusion in Mountain Ancestor’s hand at this second.

Suddenly, an energy tide resembling a storm seemed to emerge within the Sea of Realms.

With the three of them flying out, Mountain Ancestor’s double-faced Dharma Aspect’s other three hands suddenly pressed toward the trio.
