Appearing!
"Idiot!"
What a bunch of idiots!
"They surrounded him in front of the Void Sea, yet that native brat still managed to launch a successful surprise attack."
Hidden within the distant domed fortress, the Great Demon God of Cixiu was enraged.
Previously, behind Zhou Hao was a deadly area, while the other directions were four top-tier True God Dao Ancestor leading four joint formations composed of twenty-six ordinary True God Dao Ancestor. In the eyes of the Great Demon God of Cixiu, capturing Zhou Hao alive would be as easy as catching a turtle in a jar.
But these perfect conditions for an ambush were squandered by this bunch of fools.
Especially that idiot with the Tumor Eye!
Knowing full well that the native Zhou Hao was strongest in close combat, why didn't he quickly set up the magic array instead of using that damned talent, the Bewitching Secret Technique?
If it were that easy, would I have needed to send all four of you with your men?
The Great Demon God Cixiu's tail lashed and swept through the air, causing a series of hissing sounds that tore through the space within the hall.
The six golden-armored servants standing below the throne had no doubt that if Tumor Eye's clone were here, he would surely be whipped to death by his master.
"Faced with an ambush, he didn't hesitate to strike first, instantly turning the tide and putting himself in a favorable position..." The one-armed man in golden armor nodded slightly. "This native named Zhou Hao is truly decisive."
"If Zhou Hao wants to escape now, even though there are many of those idiots in Solitary Silence, they can't stop him." The Great Demon God of Cixiu frowned.
Knowing that Zhou Hao had another avatar in the Three Realms, he originally did not want to expose himself and his six servants.
However, relying solely on the visible forces of the Ancient Ruins, such as the Silent Imperial Sovereign, the Dongxiang Emperor, and the Fusha Emperor, is no longer sufficient to defeat Zhou Hao.
Thinking of this, the Great Demon God Cixiu looked at the three burly, golden-armored figures standing beneath the throne.
These were three burly men in golden armor; even as they stood there silently, layers of water shimmered and flowed around them from time to time.
"Glutton Cliff," the Great Demon God of Cixiu ordered, "You three brothers, go and block Zhou Hao's escape route."
"Yes." The shortest of the three men in golden armor immediately bowed his head in response.
"And you two," the Great Demon God of Cixiu said to the other two golden-armored figures, "Quickly set up an array to seal off spatial fluctuations."
"Yes."
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!!
The five golden-armored figures all left, leaving only the Great Demon God of Cixiu and the one-armed golden-armored man in the hall.
"I hope these fools won't disappoint me again." The Great Demon God Cixiu said in a chilling tone, looking at the mirror of light in the void before him.
"The three brothers, Glutton Cliff and his brother, are of one mind. Combined with their expertise in formations, which are inherently good at defense and binding enemies, and with Solitary Silence and the others also present, even if the strongest members of Nuwa Faction, Rulai the Sanqing and Tathagata, came, they would only be captured and killed if they couldn't teleport," the one-armed man in golden armor said calmly.
If he and the Great Demon God of Cixiu were to personally take action, they could certainly defeat Zhou Hao.
However, as top-tier Ancestor God who had undergone numerous trials in the endless chaos, both he and the Great Demon God of Cixiu possessed an instinctive arrogance.
He's just a native of the True God realm; no matter how monstrous Zhou Hao is, they wouldn't bother to deal with him personally.
On the other side.
Looking at the twenty-three True God Dao Ancestor with their imposing aura not far away, Zhou Hao was filled with doubt.
According to the intelligence he knew, there were fewer than forty True God Dao Ancestor in the entire Ancient Ruins World.
There are now twenty-three in front of him, plus the seven he just killed, making a total of thirty True God Dao Ancestor mobilized, led by four top True God Dao Ancestor who are known as the 'Strongest Emperors'.
He absolutely refused to believe there was no reason behind it.
"Gentlemen," Zhou Hao said, his gaze sweeping over the powerful beings of various alien races, "I was born from chaos and have wandered within it. I merely discovered this continent and wish to find a place to settle down. Is such a grand welcome necessary?"
If you have doubts, just ask.
Anyway, there is a vast world behind him, and after breaking through both the power of Tai Chi and the power of Wuji, he has been able to tear apart the space and teleport.
Although not as easily as in the Three Realms, where one can stroll across vast worlds like a mortal, it is more than enough to shake off encirclements and attacks.
Moreover, it's not just these alien races that can use combined attack formations; even if a real battle breaks out, Zhou Hao is not afraid.
"Coming from chaos? Zhou Hao of the human race, do you think you can fool us by changing your appearance?" Under the layers of black light surrounding the magic array, even the voice of the Silent Imperial Sovereign sounded mysterious and unpredictable.
What!?
How could these alien races possibly know my identity?
Zhou Hao's mind raced, but his expression remained impassive. "What human? I am a Chaos God-Demon. I have no idea what you're talking about."
"Still pretending?" Emperor Fusha sneered. "You're using the supernatural powers of the Three Realms Buddhism, and your transformation technique is the ' Eight-Nine Arcane Art.' Whether you admit it or not, Tiandu."
"Go!" Emperor Fusha commanded the seven True God Dao Ancestor beside him.
"Yes."
Their eight figures transformed into black streaks of light and charged towards Zhou Hao.
The Silent Imperial Sovereign and the Dongxiang Emperor also gave orders, leading their subordinates to charge from the other two directions.
In the Ancient Ruins World the Heavenly Dao no longer exists and even the primordial energy of heaven and earth is gone, casting a combined attack formation can only combine the divine power and magical power of the formation casters. It is difficult to transform the formation with the primordial energy of heaven and earth as one would in the Three Realms.
Unless the divine power or magical power of those who set up the formation is nearly equal, they can only act in unison, just like the three emperors at this moment, by giving orders before taking action.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Seeing the three combined attack formations formed by twenty-three powerful alien beings rushing towards him, and dozens of black streaks of light attaching to flying swords, flying knives, flying shuttles, ropes and other magical treasures and enveloping him, Zhou Hao turned around and left.
"Something must have gone wrong, otherwise why would these alien races be so certain of my identity?" He was confused and instead felt a little wary of the alien races.
Even the jade slips given by my master couldn't possibly contain a complete and clear record of all the methods used by these Chaos Alien that came from the endless chaos.
You must not hesitate to act when the time is right, nor should you hesitate to slip away when the time is right.
Taiji Diagram symbol appeared beneath Zhou Hao's feet, about to tear through space and leave.
"Buzz~~~"
Suddenly, layers of golden light appeared in the void spanning hundreds of thousands of miles.
Golden specks of light appeared in the air, drawing in the power of chaos.
In the blink of an eye, a massive golden light shield, covering an area of hundreds of thousands of miles and extending all the way to the edge of the Void Sea, formed from his location.
"They've even prepared a sealing formation. It seems they've really confirmed my identity." Zhou Hao's eyes flashed with killing intent as he looked at the three burly, golden-armored figures that appeared at the edge of the formation.
Since we can't leave, let's fight!
Swish swish swish swish swish swish!!!!!!
Seven figures suddenly appeared around the lava god-demon that Zhou Hao had transformed into.
The seven figures, some male and some female, some monks and some laymen, were the seven clones he carried in his personal Immortal Mansion. They had only emerged from the Immortal Mansion after performing the Eight-Nine Arcane Art transformation technique.
"Even if these alien races confirm my identity, I cannot let them know that I have mastered the ' Twelve Dutian Gods and Devils,' and that my true self has split into twelve clones."
With his true identity exposed, the only possibility Zhou Hao could think of was that those Chaos Alien had connections with the Three Realms.
In that case, he needs to keep his secret of having a clone even more hidden.
"Set up the formation."
"Good."
Each of the eight clones spoke in a distinct voice—some deep, some hoarse, some cold, some clear—as if they were eight real, unrelated True God Dao Ancestor.
Buzz~~~~
The dazzling light enveloped Zhou Hao's eight clones. Their identical divine power and magical power merged together, and their completely interconnected thoughts ensured that his ' Eight Immortals of Upper Cavern Formation Formation' wasted almost no energy.
Before the horrified eyes of all the Chaos Alien, the Lava God-Demon, which was already tens of thousands of feet tall, grew even larger, exceeding one hundred thousand feet in height.
That was a magical body formed by Zhou Hao combining the divine power and magical power of his eight avatars.
However, the strongest Blue Flower -white porcelain body at the core also transformed into the Zhurong Clan Lava God and Demon when the array's light was obscured. Therefore, after the array was set up, it still looked the same as before.
"You claim to be a Chaos God or Demon, yet you don't know the human race of the Three Realms?" The shortest of the three burly, golden-armored figures who had just appeared sneered, "Don't know the Three Realms? And you're carrying seven True God Dao Ancestor from the Three Realms with you?"
"So what if I come from the Three Realms?" Zhou Hao said coldly, "What's so strange about changing your identity when you come to the Ancient Ruins?"
"No matter how you try to justify yourself, Tiandu!" The three golden-armored men, their bodies shimmering with water, also grew to a height of 100,000 feet. They then strode towards Zhou Hao.
In an instant, three golden-armored men blocked his way in front, and three emperors led three combined attack formations to attack from behind. A total of six opponents surrounded Zhou Hao, sealing off all his chances of escape.
Zhou Hao took a look.
He immediately chose the shorter man among the three men in golden armor who was clearly of higher status and threw a punch at him.
Bright black and white energy swirled around Zhou Hao's arm, forming Taiji Diagram diagrams, like countless snowflakes surrounding him, causing the power of his punch to surge.
Furthermore, a mysterious vortex-like force caused the short, golden-armored man's blocking arm to involuntarily veer outward, revealing his chest.
"Take care of one first!" A cold glint flashed in Zhou Hao's eyes, and a punch containing the combined power of his eight clones slammed heavily into the short, golden-armored man.
Wow~~~
The sound of flowing water could be heard.
To Zhou Hao's astonishment, layers of water shimmered on the short, golden-armored man's body, as did the other two burly, golden-armored men.
A punch powerful enough to kill even the most powerful true god was weakened by more than half in the flow of water.
Moreover, the force that was clearly aimed at the short, golden-armored man seemed to have suddenly been split into three parts and then hit all three of them simultaneously.
After being weakened twice, Zhou Hao's punch only made the three golden-armored men pause slightly, their golden armor denting inwards before returning to normal. They then joined forces to launch a frenzied attack on Zhou Hao.
"They appear to be three, but are actually one, able to share the damage?" Zhou Hao swayed, displaying his Three Heads and Six Arms, and blocked all the attacks from the three golden-armored men.
With four more arms, Zhou Hao's moves became increasingly mysterious and difficult to defend against. In an instant, he thrust out three fingers at the three golden-armored men.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
The sharpest of the Five-Form Formless Calamity Finger pierced through the layers of watery light on the three men's bodies and penetrated their golden armor.
But Zhou Hao suddenly realized that what his fingertips were touching was not flesh and blood, but still water...
"Are these three guys made of water?" Zhou Hao asked anxiously.
These three alien beings were clearly true gods, yet they used bizarre methods to make their bodies seem immortal.
Even if their techniques and supernatural abilities weren't as profound as his, they were incredibly resilient and seemed to be better at hindering and entanglement. If Zhou Hao hadn't been able to imbue every move he made with the divine power of eight clones, and had relied solely on one clone for close combat, he probably would have been bound by the three alien races by now.
At this moment, the attacks from the Silent Imperial Sovereign, the Dongxiang Emperor, and the Fusha Emperor also arrived.
"I can't worry about hiding my identity anymore." With a thought, Zhou Hao summoned the Apricot Yellow Banner, which unfurled in the air and blossomed into ninety-nine golden lotuses, protecting him from all sides.
"It really is you, Zhou Hao of the human race!" The three golden-armored men laughed loudly, and their six arms immediately transformed into six streams of water, wrapping around Zhou Hao.
"So what if it's me?" Zhou Hao sneered, reverting to his human form.
At this point, hiding one's identity is useless; the only thing to do is keep the fact that one has mastered the art of creating clones a secret.
Now that he was free to act, Zhou Hao immediately unleashed his strongest technique, the ' Great Chaos Hole Palm '.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Six enormous hands slammed down from the sky towards the three men in golden armor.
With the assistance of two primordial Taiji Power, and the combined divine power of his eight clones, Zhou Hao's attack this time caused even the three golden-armored men, who were most skilled in defense, to change their expressions.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.
The three of them instantly transformed into three streams of water and fled into the distance.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!!!!!!
Six supernatural hands struck the massive golden light shield of the sealing formation in succession, causing the entire formation to tremble repeatedly. Countless ripples appeared within the golden light shield, yet it did not shatter.
"Not enough?" More sword shadows appeared out of thin air around Zhou Hao. These were the seventy-two ' Darklight Swords ', which were of the high-grade innate spiritual treasure level, obtained after killing the Darklight Sword Lord.
Whew~~~
The powerful and majestic pure Yang magic surged forth from the eight clones and poured into the Darklight Swords.
"Break!" Under Zhou Hao's control, the seventy-two jet-black high-grade spiritual treasure flying swords instantly transformed into a huge sword light, piercing straight towards the golden light shield.
"This time the power should be enough!" Zhou Hao's eyes gleamed with hope.
He was a god through the path of gods and demons, but he was not a true god; he was only at the level of a half-step true god.
It was only by relying on his divine body, which was comparable to a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, his profound supernatural powers and techniques, and the assistance of the power of origin, that he possessed such terrifying power and was able to kill True God Dao Ancestor.
In reality, his strongest skill right now is still the Qi Refining path, which has the most advanced True Immortal Golden Core.
With his eight clones combined with all his magical power to unleash the Darklight Swords, its power was so great that even a leader-level expert would have to temporarily avoid its edge and would absolutely not dare to confront it head-on.
But there are always exceptions.
"That is..." Zhou Hao stared in shock as a golden-armored, one-armed figure suddenly appeared within the magic array.
He held the knife in one hand and took a single step, already standing in front of the enormous sword light.
Immediately, the one-armed man in golden armor swung his knife.
The blade flashed sharply.
With irresistible power, it slashed directly at the sword light unleashed by Zhou Hao.
"Clang!"
A piercing sound of metal clashing rang out.
The flash of the blade dissipated.
The enormous sword light dissipated, transforming back into seventy-two Darklight Swords.
"The formation is good, and the magic power is quite profound. It's a pity you don't understand swordsmanship." The one-armed man in golden armor had a cold gaze, and his whole being was like a drawn sword.
"A powerful figure at the leadership level." Zhou Hao's expression changed slightly.
"Hahaha... What leader level? That's your native terminology. In the endless chaos, your so-called leader level is nothing more than ordinary Ancestor God, and there are as many as you want." An extremely sinister voice resounded throughout the entire magic array.
Zhou Hao then saw another powerful alien with a strangely handsome face, a bald head, and a bright green tail appear behind the one-armed man in golden armor.
"Owner."
"Owner."
"Great Master."
Inside the golden light barrier, all the alien races except Zhou Hao respectfully bowed to the powerful alien expert who had just appeared.
Even the one-armed man in golden armor, whose strength was at the level of a leader and who had shattered his own strongest attack with a single strike, bowed slightly and stood beside the powerful alien being.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Hao's expression completely changed.
"Have the Chaos Alien within the Ancient Ruins all been subdued by this unprecedented powerful alien being?"
He instantly understood why he was being besieged by almost all the True God Dao Ancestor in the entire Ancient Ruins.
"Zhou Hao, I have traversed countless Chaos Great World, and I have never encountered such a peerless genius as you before."
"If you are willing to submit and pledge allegiance today, I, the Great Demon God of Cixiu, can spare your life and even guarantee you the best training." The alien powerhouse looked at Zhou Hao with a smile. "How about it? I'm showing rare mercy."
"You think you can make me submit?" Zhou Hao sneered.
He was shocked that two powerful individuals at the leader level or above were hidden within the Ancient Ruins, but so what?
No matter how strong he is, he could never reach the Pangu God Realm, otherwise, would this alien powerhouse known as the 'Great Demon God of Cixiu ' still be in the ruined world?
"What a pity to waste such talent." The Great Demon God of Cixiu shook his head and sighed before coldly issuing the order.
"Do it!"
Call out!
The golden-armored, one-armed man's blade flashed down in an instant.
Attacks from other alien races also came in overwhelming numbers.
Zhou Hao just stood there silently.
It triggered the power of the blue-and- Blue Flower within the strongest clone.
"Clang!"
The golden-armored, one-armed man's blade struck Zhou Hao's divine body.
Sparks flew from Zhou Hao's chest, leaving a faint white mark; the knife hadn't even cut through his skin.
"Just as the information from the Wujian Gate suggests, his divine body is comparable to a top-grade innate magic weapon." The one-armed man in golden armor narrowed his eyes and was about to retreat.
But Zhou Hao was waiting for him to get close, so he wasn't going to let him back off so easily.
"Puff."
A hand pierced through the head of the one-armed man in golden armor.
"You understand the way of the sword, yet you can't even break through my divine body," Zhou Hao said coldly.
Second update.
The third update is estimated to be after midnight.
