A Terrifying Ultimate Move, the Fleeing Conofier

In the void, earth-yellow ripples emanated from a single point. It seemed like an ordinary strike, yet it contained boundless power that spread outward, aimed directly at Ren.

"Since that's the case, come on!" A fighting spirit flashed in Ren's eyes. The longsword in his hand hummed, instantly turning translucent, and the sword shadows multiplied into thousands with the vibration, each one imbued with a Dimensional Blade.

The sword shadows swirled in from all directions, converging at a single point before the earth-yellow ripples to form a massive lotus, which erupted at its center.

"Void—Dimensional Slash!"

Accompanied by a booming sound, the thousands of fused Dimensional Blades unleashed a powerful force, piercing through the earth-yellow ripples and transforming into a cyan halo that shot straight toward Conofier.

"How is this possible?"

Conofier was shocked and unable to comprehend it. He could only instinctively raise his Sovereign Artifact to block his chest. The moment the cyan halo struck, a powerful force swept over him. Conofier's figure retreated dozens of meters before stopping, blood flowing from the corners of his mouth and his arms, his eyes looking at Ren in terror.

"You, you, are you a Paragon? No, that's impossible. If you were a Paragon, I would be dead already. Could it be... a special ultimate technique?" Conofier stared at Ren with fearful eyes, his resolve beginning to waver.

Cultivators differ in their application of the Laws and Mysteries; therefore, even those who cultivate the same Laws and fuse the same Mysteries have different techniques and varying levels of power, though most are relatively similar with their own strengths.

However, there are some who, after years of research, can develop their own unique special techniques. Without increasing their level of Law comprehension, they can significantly boost their combat power. Such people are extremely rare, and Conofier had only heard of them from Gaiseresen. It is said that the legendary Destruction Overlord possessed similar techniques.

Ren did not know what Conofier was thinking, and even if he did, he wouldn't care. He naturally understood the benefits of researching one's own techniques, which was why he never forgot to contemplate them while cultivating the Laws over the years. Resjing's Amethyst Space was one such special technique. Linley also relied on this to create the technique "Inch Earth Foot Heaven" on the Planar Battlefield, allowing him to possess power comparable to someone who had fused five Mysteries despite only having fused four.

Furthermore, among the Sovereigns, the Destruction Overlord used the Tartar Clan to research his own technique, World Destruction, and later developed Space-Time Chaos. The Fate Overlord Oufu not only completed the Samsara Golden Body but also created Transcending Samsara.

Though he thought of many things, Ren's movements were not slow. The moment Conofier retreated, his body erupted with astonishing speed, rushing toward Conofier like a meteor.

"Damn it! Gravity Space! Condense!"

Conofier cursed inwardly as he retreated at high speed. The Gravity Space instantly shrank its range, increasing the suppression on the intruder. The earth-yellow divine power condensed into black, forming a cage that enveloped Ren.

"A technique similar to Blackstone Prison? But it's useless against me!" Ren gripped his longsword, tracing a strange arc in mid-air. A cyan light instantly erupted, forming a hundred-meter-long sword shadow that shot toward the ground beneath his feet.

Wind Law Dimensional Attack—Cyan Light Sword Shadow

"Boom!"

With a massive explosion, the black cage crumbled instantly. At the same time, a translucent cyan sword shadow flew out, aimed directly at Conofier's head, moving so fast that he barely had time to react.

"Oh no!"

Cyan light flashed in Conofier's eyes, and he instinctively raised his right hand to block the light sword with his Sovereign Artifact. However, the moment the light sword touched the warhammer, it suddenly split into dozens of Dimensional Blades that grazed Conofier, instantly leaving several bloody gashes on his thighs and shoulders.

On a mountain peak not far away, Emmanuel and his companion were dumbfounded, frozen in place. They could never have imagined such a scene.

"This, Elder Emmanuel, should we leave first?" Alfred asked, retreating slightly. He truly hadn't expected Ren to have hidden his strength when they fought. If he had known, he wouldn't have come back. Just how many tricks did this guy have?

"Run? Run where? I don't believe he dares to kill me; I am an elder of the Four Divine Beasts Clan." Hearing Alfred suggest leaving, Emmanuel exploded. Although he was also shocked by Ren's strength, the thought of leaving in such a dejected manner made him feel like he was going crazy.

Alfred opened his mouth, wanting to say that he didn't know if Ren dared to kill someone from the Four Divine Beasts Clan, but he certainly dared to kill him! He wasn't a member of the Four Divine Beasts Clan.

But he didn't dare to just leave, lest Emmanuel kill him in a fit of rage, leaving him with no room to resist. Now, he could only pray that Conofier would step up and not actually capsize in the gutter.

Conofier did not notice the state of Emmanuel and his companion. He was now focusing all his energy on Ren before him. Feeling the blood flowing from his body, anger surged in his heart. Deep within his soul, his true body instantly triggered a drop of Water Sovereign Power. Cyan-blue energy erupted from his body, and his original wounds immediately began to heal at an accelerated rate.

"So it has come to this," Ren sighed inwardly. He also triggered his Water Sovereign Power. He was, of course, not surprised that Conofier would use Sovereign Power; the Four Divine Beasts Clan would never lack such things, and even if an honorary elder wasn't a member of the clan, it was impossible for them not to have any.

"It seems it's impossible to kill him today. I must leave quickly. At worst, I'll talk to Gaiseresen after I return. After all, I am an honorary elder, and since I came to help Emmanuel this time, the Four Divine Beasts Clan cannot ignore it. We can surround and kill Ren together then." Conofier pondered for a moment and made his decision. In an instant, he turned into a stream of light, flying over Emmanuel and his companion in the blink of an eye.

Emmanuel only felt a powerful suction force, and his body, uncontrolled, flew directly toward Conofier. In a flash, he was grabbed by him, and they headed toward the horizon together. As for Alfred, who was standing where he was, he was simply ignored.

"Damn! You guys..." Alfred was so angry he couldn't speak, his body trembling slightly. This Emmanuel had just said he wouldn't leave and didn't believe Ren would dare kill him, and now, he had left him behind.

Emmanuel was a bit dazed for a moment, not having reacted in time. By the time he came to his senses, they were already far away. He immediately sent a voice transmission: "Elder Conofier, what are you doing?"

"If you don't want to die, don't move!" Conofier couldn't care about much else and just snorted coldly. Carrying a Seven-Star Demon would have some impact on his escape, but he didn't dare leave Emmanuel behind. If Ren were bold enough to actually kill Emmanuel, he wouldn't survive either.

If he went out with a Seven-Star Demon elder of the clan and the elder was killed while he returned alive, Gaiseresen and the others would definitely not let him off. In the eyes of Gaiseresen and the others, honorary elders like him were merely servants of the Four Divine Beasts Clan. They usually showed a bit of respect for the sake of his strength, but when it came to a critical moment, he was nothing.
