Xing Yun, Dead!

Tai Ming took out a pill that shimmered with a crimson-gold luster from his bosom and handed it to Jin Ge.

"Jin Ge, take this to treat your wounds."

"Unfortunately, there's only one pill left, but right now, it's the only thing we can use it on."

Originally, this elixir was specially bestowed upon Tai Ming by the Saint Lord Cangwu because of the incident with Lingguang last time. He suspected that there were other powerful figures in that place and kept it as a backup plan, but now he had no choice but to take it out.

"The Great Dao Origin Pill!" Xing Yun's pupils shrank. "Cang Wu is really generous, even bestowing upon you such a sacred healing medicine!"

Although Jin Ge was surprised, he still took the pill and swallowed it directly.

In an instant, the wound on his chest began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, the shattered Great Dao Origin re-coalesced, and his aura rapidly returned.

Seeing this, Tai Ming coldly looked at Xing Yun: "Now, it's two against one."

Xing Yun's face was gloomy. He had thought that the fatal blow would render Jin Ge powerless, but he hadn't expected that the opponent would possess such a precious elixir.

The Great Dao Origin Pill is a top-tier pill capable of reshaping the Great Dao Origin. How could Cang Wu be so willing to part with it?

"So what if you've recovered?" Xing Yun sneered. "One is at the mid-stage of the Great Dao Realm, the other at the peak of the Great Dao Realm, and I'm still at the peak of the Great Dao Realm. Do you really think you can beat me two against one?"

Before he could finish speaking, Tai Ming had already transformed into a streak of black light and rushed straight towards him.

"Good timing!"

With a long howl, the Xing Yun Star Sword transformed into countless starlight, clashing head-on with the Han Yuan Spear.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

The sound of metal clashing resounded throughout the Chaos, and each collision caused the Chaos sea to tremble.

Both were at the peak of the Great Dao Realm, and each of their attacks contained the power to destroy the world.

The surrounding Chaos airflow was completely disrupted, forming countless terrifying vortexes.

With his rich combat experience and the power of the Chaos Supreme Treasure, the Han Yuan Spear, Tai Ming was able to subtly suppress Xing Yun.

The more the Xing Yun, the more terrified he became.

"This can't go on." Xing Yun's mind raced. Suddenly, he changed his sword stance, no longer fighting Taiming head-on, but transforming into Tai Ming full of starlight, constantly flashing in the Chaos.

He's stalling for time!

Tai Ming immediately understood Xing Yun's intention.

"Jin Ge, finish this quickly!" Tai Ming shouted, his spear technique changing once more.

"Eternal Freeze Domain!"

Centered on the Han Yuan Spear, terrifying cold air erupted.

The Chaos sea, spanning tens of thousands of miles, instantly froze, transforming into a frozen wasteland.

Each of those frozen Chaos currents transformed into the sharpest ice blade, tearing towards the Xing Yun.

Xing Yun's expression changed drastically, and his aura surged once again.

"Now!" A glint flashed in Jin Ge's eyes.

Killing Formation composed of nine golden flying blades was suddenly activated.

Nine Blades Punishing Heaven Formation!

Nine golden beams simultaneously pierced the Xing Yun from nine directions. These beams changed their trajectories as they flew, blocking all possibilities for the Xing Yun to evade.

"Damn it!" Xing Yun gritted his teeth, his Star Sword dancing into a curtain of light.

"Clang clang clang clang--"

Nine loud bangs followed. Xing Yun barely managed to block eight of the flying blades, but the ninth one pierced through his defenses, leaving a deep, bone-revealing wound on his left shoulder.

Xing Yun let out a muffled groan, its blood splattering into the Chaos.

He looked down at his wound, a glint of madness flashing in his eyes. If this continued, he would really die here!

"You forced me to do this!" Xing Yun suddenly retreated a thousand miles, a resolute glint in his eyes.

He reached out with his right hand and grabbed at the air, and a pill that shimmered with an eerie starlight appeared in his palm.

"That's..." Tai Ming's pupils shrank drastically, "The Star Burning Pill! Are you crazy?!"

The Star Burning Pill is a forbidden pill that grants a rapid increase in strength in a short period of time by burning one's own Great Dao Origin.

After taking it, one can advance to a higher realm, but after the effects wear off, at best one's Great Dao will collapse and one will become a cripple, at worst one will die on the spot and one's Dao will be extinguished!

A ferocious smile appeared on Xing Yun's face, "Mad? No, this is for survival, for my future!"

Before Tai Ming and Jin Ge could stop him, he swallowed the Star Burning Pill directly.

"Boom--"

Terrifying energy erupted from the Xing Yun's body.

His aura began to rise wildly, easily breaking through the barrier of the peak of the Great Dao Realm, and he moved towards a higher realm.

Dao Breaking Realm?

No, a true Dao Breaking Realm the Dao realm requires absorbing Primordial Chaos energy and gaining the approval of the Primordial Chaos Realm essence.

As for Xing Yun, he was only pushed up by forbidden pills.

Pseudo Dao Breaking Realm!

Even so, that's enough.

Xing Yun slowly opened her eyes, which were now filled with a sea of starlight.

He clenched his fist lightly, and the surrounding Chaos energy automatically retreated.

"Now, it's your turn."

A smile appeared on Xing Yun's face.

Tai Ming and Jin Ge exchanged a glance, both seeing the seriousness in each other's eyes.

The Pseudo Dao Breaking Realm, although only a pseudo-realm, has still touched the threshold of the Dao Breaking Realm.

Compared to the peak of the Great Dao Realm, that's a qualitative leap!

"We have no choice but to fight." Tai Ming took a deep breath, and the chill around him surged once more.

This time, he was willing to burn his own Great Dao Origin to unleash the full power of the Han Yuan Spear.

Jin Ge made the same choice.

The nine golden flying blades began to merge, eventually transforming into a single golden giant blade a hundred feet long.

"Kill!" The two attacked simultaneously.

Tai Ming's Han Yuan Spear transformed into a colossal ice dragon, frozen for eternity, roaring as it lunged towards Xing Yun.

Jin Ge's golden giant blade followed closely behind.

Xing Yun merely smiled dismissively.

He raised his hand, spread his fingers, and then gently clenched them.

"The Universe in Palm"

The surrounding Chaos suddenly vanished, replaced by a vast starry sky.

Tai Ming and Jin Ge found themselves trapped in this starry sky. Their attacks gradually weakened in the starry sky and eventually dissipated into nothingness.

"In my Star Domain, your Great Dao will be suppressed by thirty percent." The figure of Xing Yun appeared in the starry sky, like the ruler of this star field. "And my Star Dao will be strengthened by thirty percent."

The gap has widened.

But Tai Ming and Jin Ge did not give up.

The two attacked again, one on the left and one on the right.

Although Xing Yun held an absolute advantage, the counterattacks from Tai Ming and Jin Ge made him dare not be careless.

The three fought their way from one end of the Chaos sea to the other, shattering countless Chaos bubbles along the way with the aftershocks of the battle.

Each of those bubbles is a nascent, Chaos World, perhaps already teeming with life and civilization.

However, in the face of a battle at the peak of the Great Dao Realm, they are as fragile as bubbles, and when they shatter, they don't even have time to let out a mournful cry.

The battle lasted for hundreds of rounds, Xing Yun gradually began to feel uneasy.

The effects of the Star Burning Pill are limited; he must end the battle before its effects wear off.

"We can't delay any longer!" A ruthless glint flashed in Xing Yun's eyes as he decided to unleash his strongest attack.

"Myriad Stars Annihilation!"

All the stars in the sky lit up at the same time, and then—exploded!

The explosion of each star is equivalent to the self-destruction of a powerful cultivator in the early stage of the Great Dao Realm.

And in this starry sky, there are billions of stars!

He wanted to resolve these two problems completely before the medicine wore off.

Tai Ming and Jin Ge were deathly pale; they sensed the threat of death.

This attack is unstoppable!

"Jin Ge, help me!" Tai Ming suddenly roared.

Jin Ge instantly understood Tai Ming's meaning. Without the slightest hesitation, he injected the remaining essence into Tai Ming's body.

Tai Ming's aura surged once more, and he gripped the Han Yuan Spear with both hands, causing cracks to appear on the spear shaft.

"Eternal Annihilation!"

Where the spear tip passed, time stopped, space froze, and even the exploding stars were frozen in that moment.

There was no earth-shattering explosion; at the center of the collision, everything vanished, everything returned to nothingness.

After an unknown amount of time, the darkness gradually dissipated.

Xing Yun's figure reappeared, kneeling on one knee in the void, his starlight dimmed, and his aura extremely weak.

The effects of the Star Burning Pill have worn off, and the backlash is beginning to appear.

On the opposite side, Tai Ming and Jin Ge were in even worse condition.

Both were covered in blood, their Great Dao Origin almost depleted, and they could barely maintain their stance.

"Cough cough..." Xing Yun coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, his face showing resentment, "I... I still couldn't kill you..."

Tai Ming stared coldly at him, raising the Han Yuan Spear once more.

Xing Yun laughed, a bitter laugh, "I never imagined that after a lifetime of scheming, this would be my final fate..."

He didn't finish his sentence.

Jin Ge's last flying blade pierced through his brow.

The Xing Yun's body began to dissipate, turning into specks of starlight, and finally vanished completely into the Chaos sea.

Jin Ge stared at the spot where the Xing Yun vanished, remaining silent for a long time.

"Let's go," Tai Ming suddenly spoke, his voice weak. "People from the Limitless Realm could arrive at any moment."

Jin Ge nodded, and the two of them, despite their injuries, transformed into streaks of light and flew away into the distance.

They had barely left when a dark figure appeared at the edge of the battlefield.

The newcomer was clad in black armor, his face hidden beneath his helmet, revealing only a pair of scarlet eyes.

He was none other than Li Xue, a general under the command of the Saint Lord Cangwu.

"Hmm?" Li Xue glanced around, his brows furrowing slightly. "Such intense aftershocks of a battle!"

"It seems something has happened." Li Xue muttered to himself, about to give chase, when suddenly he sensed something and turned to look in the other direction.

A flash of silver light appeared, and a man clad in silver armor appeared not far away.

This person was handsome, with a faint smile on his lips; he was Jiu Chen from the Limitless Realm.

"Li Xue Warrior, it's been a long time," Jiu Chen said with a smile.

Li Xue snorted coldly, "Jiu Chen, what do you people from the Limitless Realm want on my Star Sea Realm?"

"Just taking a casual stroll." Jiu Chen shrugged. "The Chaos Sea isn't anyone's backyard, why can't I come here?"

"Enough with the nonsense." A murderous glint flashed in Li Xue's eyes. "Is Xing Yun from your Limitless Realm?"

A strange light flashed in Jiu Chen's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. "Xing Yun? I don't know that. What, are your people missing?"

Li Xue stared at Jiu Chen for a long while, then suddenly turned and left. "That's for the best. If I discover that your Limitless Realm is up to any tricks, the Holy Lord will not let it go."

Watching Li Xue's disappearing figure, Jiu Chen's smile gradually faded. He surveyed the battlefield, a look of seriousness flashing in his eyes.

"The Xing Yun failed... It seems that Cang Wu man Cangwu was prepared."

Jiu Chen muttered to himself.

"What a waste of such a good piece."

He transformed into a silver ray of light and flew off in another direction.
