Chapter 1102: Chapter 542: Divine Ninth Rank at a Snap!

Swish.

Amidst the Demonic Qi, Chen Mu’s figure manifested and reassembled once more.

He raised both hands, in his palms gathered a power that defied description, a power that seemed devoid of characteristics yet embodied all, the pure Creation Power!

"Reversing is the motion of Dao, Weakness is the use of Dao, All things are born from being, being is born from non-being."

Gazing at the ever-fluctuating Creation Power in his palms, countless thoughts arose in Chen Mu’s mind.

Creation!

In the past, he thought Creation was a force of opposition, containing all opposing traits. However, he later realized his understanding was too superficial; Creation Power was closer to the power of transformation, the limitless change.

The emergence of being from non-being, and non-being from being, the cycle of life and death, all transformations are brewed within; it also links being and non-being. Without Creation, the Void would remain eternally dead, and without Creation, Time would lose its meaning.

Time witnesses transformation, if everything were eternally unchanging, a perpetual silence, then Time would hold no meaning. It is Creation that gives Time its significance, and it is Creation that brings life to the Void.

"Void, Time."

Chen Mu muttered as he cast his gaze by his side.

Before him, the Fire of Time emitted dazzling seven-colored light, releasing strands of the Power of Time, enveloping him completely, while the Void Broken Sword also radiated invisible Void Force, surrounding him.

Suddenly.

The soil beside him erupted violently, accompanied by a roar, as an Exotic Beast with a massive bloody maw approached to devour Chen Mu. This Exotic Beast was covered in pitch-black scale armor, with its huge maw taking up half its body!

Chen Mu’s expression remained unchanged as he looked at the suddenly attacking Exotic Beast. The power this beast displayed was Creation Power, but its level was not high, merely at the Seventh Rank.

"Roar!!"

The Creation Beast lunged to devour the halo surrounding Chen Mu, first crashing into the Time Light Wheel formed by the Fire of Time. In an instant, its movements became extremely slow, as if it were mired in a swamp.

It roared, and from its maw burst forth a constantly changing power, tearing and disturbing the Power of Time, struggling to continue devouring, slowly surpassing the barrier of Time, reaching the Void Force flowing around Chen Mu.

Buzz!

Now affected by both Time and Void forces, the Creation Beast was finally frozen there, maintaining its posture with its maw wide open, seemingly immobilized for the moment.

Chen Mu remained motionless, quietly observing the scene, thoughtfully watching the Creation Beast constantly wielding Creation Power, watching the intertwining distortion of the three Origin Dao powers: Creation, Time, and Void.

After an unknown duration.

Chen Mu suddenly raised his right hand and pointed towards the Creation Beast.

As his finger lowered, a flicker of ever-changing Creation Power appeared at his fingertip, yet as this strand of Creation Power shot forth, the nearby Void Force and Power of Time were simultaneously drawn in, merging with it, culminating into an indescribable spark of Spiritual Light.

Hiss.

The Spiritual Light pierced through the Void, penetrating the Creation Beast.

The slightly trembling body of the Creation Beast fell completely still, then shattered from the head downwards, dissolving inch by inch, finally vanishing entirely, leaving only a small Primordial Fragment and a Creation Light Ball in the Void.

"Indeed, with the guidance of the Creation Dao, only can the Void Force and Power of Time merge to unleash their greatest potency."

Witnessing this, a profound and eerie glow flickered in Chen Mu’s eyes.

This strike, following his grasp of the rudiments of the Creation Dao, was an attack executed by guiding the Void and Time through Creation Power, and its potency was indeed extraordinary, undoubtedly reaching the level of Divine Under Ninth Rank!

Previously, when he wielded Void and Time powers, he could equally reach the Divine Under Ninth Rank in power, but this was entirely different from now!

Before, to unleash ’Silent Annihilation’, he had to activate both the State of Nothingness and Time State simultaneously, in the overlay of Void Force and Power of Time, maximizing the usable power to the fullest, to strike the pinnacle blow of Divine Under Ninth Rank without relying on a Divine Weapon.

Such a move, he found difficult to execute consecutively.

But now it’s different.

By guiding Void Years through Creation Power, even an ordinary finger could match the power of ’Silent Annihilation’!

Without relying on a Divine Weapon, without external aid, purely through his own strength, even a casual strike reached the terrifying power of the Divine Under Ninth Rank’s pinnacle, which compared to the past, is utterly different.

Buzz!!

A thought flashed in Chen Mu’s mind, and he suddenly stood up straight, instantly merging into the Void, displaying the State of Nothingness. In the next moment, with a thought, Time encircled him, displaying the Ethereal State.

The combination of these states brought immense pressure upon him once more.

"Creation..."

Chen Mu attempted to wield Creation Power in the amalgamation of the State of Nothingness and Ethereal State.

Bam.

But this time, he failed.

His entire self fell out of Nihility, stumbling a step forward.

Using Creation Power as a medium can indeed allow a more perfect fusion of Void Force and Power of Time, but under the amalgamation of the State of Nothingness and Ethereal State, the pressure was immense, making it hard to further utilize Creation Power.
