Breaking the Formation

Hearing the voice in her ear, Gu Mo, who was in the middle of the battle, was more concerned about the tone and timbre of the voice than the content of what the other party said.

The speaker's voice was so unexpected that Gu Mo was momentarily dazed.

However, Gu Mo's original skill level was high enough that she could maintain a short-term battle through subconscious actions, and relying on instinctive reactions, she was also able to cope with extremely high-level confrontations.

It's commonly known as fighting without using your brain.

Therefore, this momentary lapse in concentration did not cause Gu Mo to make any mistakes or give herself away.

She tried to speak softly.

"Miao Miao, is that you?"

The alternation between light and shadow became shorter and more frequent.

A few seconds later, the sound rang in Gu Mo's ears again, accompanied by rustling noise.

"It's me."

"That's great! You're alright! I thought you'd lost your 'self'," Gu Mo said joyfully. "You're really... that's wonderful!"

As she spoke, Gu Mo used a move called "Pulling the Ox's Tail Backwards" to grab the spear that was pointing at her heart, dragging down a golden-armored giant and using its massive body to knock down two other golden-armored giants on either side.

Why didn't you contact me before?

Gu Mo continued happily.

Shen Bingmiao's light and cheerful voice rang out, still carrying some distorted noise. "Oh dear, I did indeed fall into a deep sleep for a while... and after the Divine Realm was sealed off, I was also affected..."

"It's become very difficult for me to directly intervene in Real World affairs; even communication has become a struggle. Other Deity, on the other hand, have ways to circumvent the Rule by paying a price, but as the Rule- maker, if I want these Rule to continue to be effective, I can only 'abide by' them!"

"The only reason I can speak to you is because the arrival of this 'emperor' has indeed opened up some avenues..."

"Anyway, don't worry too much about me, I'll find a way to come back... You should worry about yourself first. The Two Authorities 'conquest' and 'Domination' are highly compatible, and they can even work together almost seamlessly like they are now. Moreover, under the Emperor's development, they can be used in direct combat to transform the surrounding environment into his temporary Divine Kingdom... This one method is enough for him to contend with the World Will and fight against you, who are supported by the World Will."

Hearing the voice beside her, Gu Mo nodded, kicked away the incoming arrow, then used her elbow to knock back a giant swinging a hammer, and spoke.

"So that's how it is... But it's alright, Miao Miao, the title 'God of Conquest and Domination' is enough."

"Can I conclude that whether it was the black guards just now or these golden ones... in essence, they were actually guards or generals who truly existed in life, souls who submitted to him, only now transformed into a 'part' that he could Domination through Authority?"

Shen Bingmiao's voice rang out. "Yes."

"Then there's nothing to worry about," Gu Mo exhaled deeply as the sky brightened. "I've discovered that their techniques actually exist in all Ten Realms: the Ten-Crown Warriors of the Black Marsh World, the Martial Ancestor of the Prison Mountain Realm, the Tail Race Ruin God Guards of the Nether Void Realm, the founder of the Fighting Tiger School of the Night Valley Realm... Hmm, it should be these guys. I've even recognized quite a few of their identities."

"I was just hesitant to confirm it right away—now that you're telling me this, it saves me a lot of trouble figuring things out."

"Since it's them, and since what they've shown so far is all they have... then things are easier."

Gu Mo said casually, "No matter how his Authority can circumvent the influence of the World Will, since he has chosen to confront me in the form of finding some experts to fight against me, then... I will definitely win."

"This is probably a result of his Authority and his way of doing things... Since he is the 'God of Conquest and Domination,' does he want to defeat and conquer me in my area of expertise? Ha, perhaps after I lose, I will also appear among these guys he summons!"

Shen Bingmiao's voice rang in my ears again.

"Wow, all those names you just mentioned sound terrifying! Do you really think you can win?"

"Certainly."

Gu Mo's response was firm and resounding.

Indeed, these thirty-six figures should be the strongest close-combat fighters from each of the Ten Realms —perhaps even the strongest fighters in the history of each realm, rather than just the strongest fighters of a particular era.

But it's okay...

Looking across the Ten Realms and over the millennia in each realm, Gu Mo didn't think she would lose.

Even if they went together, the result would be the same.

Even...

"I am somewhat grateful to you, Your Majesty... for bringing so many masters to spar with me."

Gu Mo took a deep breath as she spoke.

The light dimmed again, almost as if night had fallen, swallowing up the golden light completely.

Then...

Her punches and kicks were more powerful than before...

It's several times faster and several times heavier!

Now, even the "emperor" on his Imperial Carriage, standing before the Palace, couldn't help but turn his head in surprise.

"Just now... he wasn't even going all out?"

"Nonsense!"

Gu Mo roared and began throwing punches again.

But this time...

She was no longer "entangled" with the giants around her, but... "fighting"!

Now, Gu Mo is finally unleashing her full power, something she hasn't done in a long time!

Her understanding of combat and martial arts has improved many times over compared to when she first entered the "Death game".

Moreover, she hasn't unleashed her full potential in a long time.

After all, Gu Mo usually only has two kinds of opponents now.

Either they were defeated by her without her using her full strength, or they knew how to limit her from using her full strength.

Even Deity wouldn't engage in such a brutal, hand-to-hand combat with Gu Mo — Deity would choose to restrict Gu Mo in other ways.

But the "Emperor"... the "Emperor" who holds the Two Authorities of "conquest" and "Domination," just as Gu Mo guessed, will use his subordinates, in the area where Gu Mo is most skilled, to defeat her.

This is a crazy idea.

But...

Gu Mo liked it very much!

"I truly underestimated you... Grandmaster!"

The emperor watched in astonishment as the golden-armored giants fell one after another.

Thirty-six against one, the thirty-six most skilled Martial Arts and combat experts from all walks of life, working seamlessly together under the unified coordination of "Authority"...

Still no match for Gu Mo!

"What a pity! What a pity!"

"These experts are ultimately just illusions created by 'Authority.' If... they were all still alive when you summoned them, possessing their own experience and on-the-spot judgment, it might have been even more enjoyable!"

Beside Gu Mo, in the blink of an eye, only seven golden-armored giants remained!

The emperor sighed, "It's truly a pity—especially your martial arts skills, which cannot be used by me. It's a real shame!"

"Are you really not considering... joining my ranks?"

Gu Mo burst into laughter. "If I knew how to submit to you, I wouldn't have all these skills."

As she spoke, Gu Mo defeated another golden-armored giant.

The emperor raised his hand, and the giant dragon coiled beneath his Imperial Carriage returned to his grasp.

But this time, the black dragon did not transform into Scepter, but into a jet-black... Coiling Dragon Jade Seal.

"I agree... However, although I admire you, since you're blocking my way, I still can't let you go."

As the emperor spoke, he raised the Imperial Seal in his hand.

"Although no one can match you in martial arts... I have never built my empire on the help of a few fierce generals."

"What I rely on... is the emperor's power."

"You are also adept at using the 'power of heaven and earth'... but in the end, you are only borrowing it."

"But what I possess is something I earned myself!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Armored Soldier similar to the black-clad Imperial Guard from before surged out from the Palace behind the emperor.

However, the quantity this time...

It's several hundred times more than before.

Tens of thousands of Armored Soldier emerged from the end of the passage like a black wave.

However, if viewed from the perspective of forces at a higher level...

At this moment, the emperor's Divine Kingdom seemed to have completely covered a corner of the sky, as if it had pried open a hole in the Real World.

"That 'Diviner' really wasn't trying to harm me... I now understand the purpose of his arrangements underground... This city can now actually bear the arrival of my Divine Kingdom."

The emperor murmured, then sighed, "If only I had been told sooner..."

He sighed, and the last two golden-armored giants fell as well.

Gu Mo sensed the tens of thousands of soldiers emanating from the Authority "Domination" and "conquest," and felt the "Divine Kingdom" that had almost completely taken shape around her. She also understood...

The current emperor has indeed abandoned the idea of "directly defeating" me and has instead decided to deal with me by "restraining" me.

"So many people... they're really not easy to deal with."

Gu Mo spoke softly, then let out a breath.

It's not impossible to try to stop them, but I'm ultimately alone. Even with the Heaven and Earth Momentum protecting me, I'll eventually tire, become weary, and neglect my duties...

Being constantly held back increases the likelihood of making mistakes.

Not to mention...

That "emperor" has never personally launched an attack.

Therefore, "Grandmaster" Gu Mo Leng Jing down for once and did not rush up to fight to the death with the other party.

She looked at the army formation rushing towards her like a black tide, and before making a move, she spoke loudly.

"Hello!"

Gu Mo was not calling out the voice of Shen Bingmiao, who had already disappeared.

Instead...

"Feng Shui Master," I've kept you waiting for so long, are you finally better yet?

Gu Mo questioned him impatiently.

Below Gu Mo, at the location on the ground, a beam of clear light shot into the sky.

"I apologize, Heroine... This time, the 'Diviner's' setup was extremely well-concealed, and there was another expert, whose identity I don't know, who helped with it, so it took me a little longer."

"But now... it's possible."

Jian Cunyi's gentle voice rang out.

The soaring Pure Qi, upon encountering the golden light, actually...

They were forced back!
