"Hongran, hold up the crack in the clouds and don't let it close," Zhou Hao's Second Primordial Spirit in black robes transmitted telepathically.

"Leave it to me." Hongran responded and moved, his Dharma Body body directing the five heads of the black serpent to slowly rotate in the clouds, trying his best to hold up the ninth layer of clouds and prevent the crack from closing!

It should be noted that once the cloud layer closes, the inside and outside of the Grassland Cloud Realm will be completely isolated, making it difficult for Zhou Hao and his group to attack the core of the grassland inside.

"Changsheng, the conquest of the grassland world is now in your hands," Hongran transmitted his voice after holding up the crack in the clouds.

"Don't worry." With these words, Zhou Hao, the Second Primordial Spirit spirit in black robes, suddenly appeared at the edge of the crack outside the Grassland Cloud Realm.

Originally, Zhou Hao in black robes and the other Supreme Beings were hiding together, relying solely on ranged attacks.

Even the most powerful ranged attacks are mostly energy attacks, and their effectiveness in damaging the nine layers of clouds and the core of the inner grassland is certainly not as good as attacks from melee entities.

Zhou Hao, who controls the three 'Eternal Ultimate Paths', is the strongest, and since the other Supreme only have one true body, this crucial task naturally falls to Zhou Hao's Second Primordial Spirit.

They were in the Ninefold Cloud Realm.

A giant black serpent propped up the crack in the clouds, while Zhou Hao, dressed in black robes, suddenly stretched out one of his arms, which became enormous.

The massive hand, with fingers pointing like a spear, thrust downwards towards the layers of clouds below.

Puff!

The fingertip pierced through eight layers of clouds, then continued downwards, piercing through seven more layers, six more...

The combined attack formation formed by the six Supreme ' true forms and Dharma Body behind them, along with Zhou Hao's Second Primordial Spirit, continuously supplied endless energy. Zhou Hao's arm, wielding the black robe, swept through seven layers of clouds with overwhelming force, instantly reaching the final first layer of clouds.

"Bolin!" Zhou Hao immediately transmitted his voice, as Bolin's true form was hidden in the first layer of clouds.

"It's here." A wisp of air, barely visible to the naked eye, immediately flew out from the clouds and landed on Zhou Hao's arm, which was as majestic as a divine mountain.

The divine power surrounding his arm surged and impacted the surrounding clouds, preventing the torn holes in the clouds from closing.

The wisp of air from the true form of the Supreme Being of Supreme Bolin, in his state of feigned death, followed the path opened up by Zhou Hao in black robes and escaped from the Grassland Cloud Realm with a 'whoosh'.

"Haha, I'm out too." As soon as he appeared in the void, Supreme Bolin stopped maintaining the state of feigned death, and his mind resonated with the origin of the universe, drawing energy from the Origin Will.

The Origin Will seemed to know that this was a crucial moment for both Him and the Cultivator Civilization, and was almost always ready to grant any request.

"Rumble~~~"

As endless chaotic energy descended, the true form of the Supreme Bolin instantly returned to its perfect state.

"Bolin, return to your positions immediately! I'm about to attack the core of the grassland," Zhou Hao transmitted telepathically.

"Alright." Supreme Bolin dared not delay and immediately flew to the location of the other Supreme ' main bodies, merging himself into the magic array.

The Supreme Beings had practiced this combined attack formation countless times. As soon as Supreme Bolin entered the formation, he immediately mobilized all his energy... With the help of another Supreme, Zhou Hao in black robes suddenly gained even more power!

With a flick of its finger, the magnificent arm, reaching deep into the nine layers of clouds, tore apart the last layer of clouds, followed by a powerful ' Great Chaos Hole Palm ' that slammed heavily onto the green grassland brimming with endless vitality.

"Bang!"

Like the majestic arm of a sacred mountain, towering into the clouds, piercing through eight layers of clouds, a palm imprinted on the grassland.

But the grassland truly lived up to its reputation as the core of the entire weapon of war, its resilience even comparable to the sum of nine layers of clouds. Moreover, there was a mysterious force-dissipating array within the grassland. Zhou Hao in black robes felt the energy unleashed by his supernatural power being diverted from a single point to the entire endless grassland, and his full-force attack only left a palm print no more than a hundred feet deep on the grassland.

Seeing this, Zhou Hao, dressed in black, frowned slightly and immediately transmitted his voice, "The grassland cannot be breached. What do you all think we should do?"

"This deep grassland should be the core of the ' Grassland Cloud Realm '," said Supreme Hongran. "Based on my understanding of the many powerful weapons of the Sith Clan, the more powerful the array formations and restrictions are at the core. Right now, Changsheng, when you attack, you need to resist the binding force of eight layers of clouds at the same time, and you can only exert part of your divine power. With only a portion of your power, I think it's hopeless to break through the core of a weapon with stronger protective power."

"Yes, that's true." Zhou Hao agreed.

His arm had to pierce through eight layers of clouds. Although the restraint of each layer of clouds was not very strong, the cumulative effect of each layer greatly consumed his divine power.

In reality, the power of the supernatural abilities used in the end was estimated to be only about 50%.

It's hopeless to try and break through the Sith Clan's strongest weapon of war with only half its power.

"Let's break through the nine layers of clouds first," said Supreme Hongran. "These clouds... are like layers of protective shells around its core. Once we peel away each layer, we can brew it however we want."

"Do you know how to break through the clouds?" Zhou Hao, dressed in black, asked, his eyes lighting up.

"Its core is inside, with nine layers of clouds on the outside. For such a troublesome cloud formation to exist, there must be a guiding formation, hidden within those nine layers. You only need to twist it as much as possible, causing it to crumble and regenerate. There will inevitably be a moment when it reveals a weakness," Supreme Hongran said. "Once a weakness is revealed, I can follow the clues and find the guiding formation of the cloud."

The divine power that Zhou Hao was using to activate his supernatural arm at this moment was a condensation of the Supreme power of Hongran, Bolin, and the others.

Every wisp of divine power contains a soul and true spirit. Wherever divine power reaches, it is as if the true self is present, naturally enabling them to observe and know everything.

"Understood. Observe carefully." Zhou Hao, dressed in black, stretched out another arm, his two arms stretching out like pillars of a divine mountain, stirring within the Grassland Cloud Realm.

With each swing of his arms, the eight layers of clouds he pierced were torn open with various wounds!

The clouds kept churning, and the wounds kept healing.

"Not enough, go harder." The voice of Supreme Hongran rang in his ears, and Zhou Hao, dressed in black robes, was inspired. He immediately unleashed the ' Cloud Hands ' Taiji Fist Art.

Cloud Hands, known as the "mother posture" in Taiji Fist, may seem like just two hands rotating in circles, but it embodies the profound state of "Tai Chi is everywhere in the body".

Especially when Zhou Hao uses it at his current level, just look at how he switches between his hands, revealing many profound mysteries such as time and space, yin and yang, and the five elements.

At first, small vortices appeared in the surrounding clouds as he rotated his arm. Then, the vortices grew stronger and stronger, and gradually, they seemed to conjure up all kinds of primordial energies, such as metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, as if they were about to create chaos in the clouds and recreate a new world.

"The Way of the Five Elements? The Way of the Five Elements at the eternal and ultimate level?" Supreme Hongran could no longer observe the clouds and looked at Zhou Hao in black robes with surprise.

"A breakthrough in the heat of battle?" The other five Supreme were also amazed and delighted.

"That's it. Changsheng is the only Ultimate Emperor in our Chaos Universe, and he is loved by the entire Chaos Universe. Now, it is the most crucial battle against the external enemy, the Sith Clan. The fortune and power of the entire Chaos Universe will probably be concentrated on him, allowing him to create some miracles!" Supreme Hongran controls the ' Origin of Myriad Dao Causality ' and usually values fortune the most. After a little thought, he suddenly understood and gained countless confidence in this decisive battle.

Zhou Hao, who had just broken through, also understood this principle. However, if he hadn't already accumulated a very high level of knowledge in the Five Elements, reaching the point of being on the verge of success, even with the gathering of good fortune, he wouldn't have been able to achieve a breakthrough in the face of adversity.

Moreover, luck is ultimately an external force, and it is far from enough to win a war and kill a great enemy.

Deep beneath the earth's core in the grassland world.

Inside the main hall.

Iyer's face was grim.

Standing on either side of him were three Source Walker Lord Master, including the woman in silver robes.

Below them were a group of the Sith Clan Lord Master and three Supreme- level Strange Lifeform.

"So the greatest enemy I always thought was not Bolin, nor Ekong, but this newly emerged seventh leader of the cultivators." Iyer's gaze pierced through the layers of obstacles in the Grassland Cloud Realm, fixed on Zhou Hao in black robes.

"It's actually the Ultimate Emperor!"

"This Chaos Universe has silently given birth to an Ultimate Emperor!!!"

Iyer knew very well what it meant for an Ultimate Emperor to appear in a Chaos Universe.

Especially this unfamiliar native youth, who doesn't seem to have mastered an Ultimate Dao.

sky.

To be able to deduce a single 'Dao' to the eternal ultimate level is already an incredible stroke of luck. Such talent and comprehension surpass all ages, exceeding the billions upon billions of cultivators in the entire Chaos Universe. And to comprehend and control several more?

With such strong comprehension, why doesn't he specialize in one path, integrate the others, and deduce it to the point of ' One Dao Gives Birth to Ten Thousand Daos,' thus stepping into the ultimate Emperor realm?

Countless thoughts flashed through Iyer's mind in an instant, but now was not the time to explore these.

What he had to do was to kill this native Ultimate Emperor immediately!

Even if it means using every last card, even if all my men are wiped out!

Only by destroying this native Ultimate Emperor can one hope to win this war and seize this Chaos Universe.

"Eqiong, you three, come to the center." Iyer looked down.

The three Supreme- level Strange Lifeform looked at each other with suspicion, and then cautiously made their way to the center of the hall.

They had always been wary of these Sith Clan, but they were no match for them and were captured alive. They were forced to obey on the condition of freedom.

In the Endless Space, they are far inferior to Iyer, and in this grassland world, they are still far inferior.

However, the three Strange Lifeform also harbored a certain expectation.

Is Iyer trying to send us out to confront those cultivator leaders?

Wouldn't that allow us to take advantage of the situation and turn against them?

Although One-Eye, High Mountain, and Dragon Turtle did not directly participate in the traps and ambushes set by the cultivator leaders, they hovered in the distant void, waiting for their master Zhou Hao's orders.

These three Strange Lifeform were very familiar with their auras, and one of them, a One-Eye bear, was even sworn brothers with the "One-Eye" creature.

"If Iyer orders me to fight, I'll feign engagement first. Once I get close to that cultivator leader, I'll immediately call out to my One-Eye brother, hmph." The One-Eye bear had a plan in mind.

Therefore, when he heard Iyer say, "This is a crucial battle, and we need your great contributions," the One-Eye bear immediately responded.

"Just tell us what you need us to do, and we will do our best."

The other two Strange Lifeform looked at each other.

When will you be able to represent both of us?

However, since all three of them are Supreme- level Strange Lifeform and were all captured by Iyer from the Endless Space, they are naturally considered to be in the same camp, and there is no reason for them to undermine each other.

"Whatever you need us to do, Iyer, just give the order," the two Strange Lifeform said respectfully.

"Very well." Iyer smiled. "I need the three of you. I'll offer you your lives."

The three of them, One-Eye Bear, were all stunned.

What does it mean to offer our lives?

Should we go to war?

Before the three Strange Lifeform could ask any questions, nine purple-gold chains suddenly appeared out of thin air in the hall.

Each purple-gold chain was incredibly mysterious, howling and twisting as it attacked them.

"Iyer, what are you doing?"

"If you want us to fight, we'll go immediately. Why are you attacking us?"

The three Supreme- level Strange Lifeform tried to resist, but the purple-gold chains that Iyer personally manipulated far surpassed these three Supreme- level Strange Lifeform in both power and mystery.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

Almost instantly, the bodies of the three Supreme- level Strange Lifeform were ripped apart, and their respective life cores were then bound and seized by purple-gold chains.

"Iyer! Didn't you promise that if we help you, you'll set us free after the great war?" The One-Eye bear roared unwillingly within its life core.

"Set you free?" Iyer's eyes were icy cold. "Three idiots, you think you have the right to negotiate with me? If your lives weren't still somewhat useful, you wouldn't have been alive until now!"

As he spoke, Iyer extended his right hand.

In the palm of his right hand were three seemingly cute little black dolls.

call.

Three black dolls flew out and hovered in the center of the hall.

"Hiss hiss hiss~~~"

The flesh and blood from the three Supreme- level Strange Lifeform, which had been ripped apart, quickly flew towards the black doll. Even the three life cores, which were already bound by purple-gold chains, flew towards the black doll.

"No--"

"No, what is this, no--"

The three Supreme- level Strange Lifeform suddenly felt boundless fear.

That seemingly ordinary black doll now possessed a fatal attraction.

Their life cores, utterly powerless, flew towards the black doll, along with their own flesh and blood...

"Hiss hiss hiss~~~"

The flesh and blood of those Strange Lifeform were easily devoured the moment they approached the black doll.

Because the three life cores condensed all the true soul energy of the three Strange Lifeform, the black doll was initially slow in absorbing them.

However, as they absorbed more energy, the three black dolls became increasingly mystical, their rate of absorbing energy from the life core skyrocketing.

"Iyer, you will fail, you will fail!"

"You will die. The leader of the cultivators will definitely kill you."

"Damn Iyer, shameless Iyer..."

The three Supreme- level Strange Lifeform were cursing and roaring madly within their life cores, but with a chilling 'crackling' sound, the three life cores were completely devoured by the black doll, leaving not a trace.

The Sith Clan Lord Master beside them, including the three Source Walker Lord Master, watched in fear and dared not utter a sound.

They were all well aware of Iyer's indifference.

To achieve his goals, everything is merely a pawn in his game.

Those three Supreme- level Strange Lifeform talking to him about 'promises' is a joke!

"Whoosh~~~~"

The three black dolls floating in mid-air suddenly began to grow larger, transforming into three imposing black-scaled ferocious beasts.

The three ferocious beasts squatted motionless in the main hall, exuding a powerful aura.

After all, each ferocious beast devoured all the energy and flesh of an entire Supreme- level Strange Lifeform.

"As I arranged earlier, you will split into three teams, each team operating a War Beast Weapon." Iyer looked at the three Source Walker Lord Master and their subordinates.

"The cultivators have already produced Ultimate Emperor. We have no way out!"

"I must win this war, I must take control of this Chaos Universe! If anyone doesn't fight with all their might at this point, or holds back... then don't blame me."

Iyer's face was icy, and his eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion as he stared at the three Source Walker Lord Master.

The three women, including the woman in the silver robe, felt a tremor in their hearts.

They all knew that Iyer was speaking to them.

Iyer has been fighting for control of this Chaos Universe for countless years. If they fail because of their fear of death, Iyer will probably kill the three of them immediately.

"We will fight with all our might."

"With the Holy Lord's strongest War Beast, victory is ours!"

The woman in the silver robe and the other two immediately expressed their opinions.

They already knew that the reason they were sent here was to oversee this ' War Beast Weapon '.

After all, ordinary Sith Clan Lord Master are weaker and find it difficult to fully utilize their War Beast Weapon.

As the three Source Walker Lord Master, even though they were ostracized and oppressed by the Origin Will, their own immense power was no less than that of Supreme cultivator who could mobilize the power of the universe's origin.

Each of them controlled a War Beast, and with the assistance of the Sith Clan Lord Master, their power was so great that they were confident they could defeat even Supreme cultivator who unleashed a combined attack formation.

"Although the War Beast has devoured all the power of a Supreme- level life form, it can probably only sustain itself for half an hour under extreme conditions," Iyer instructed. "Therefore, you must win as quickly as possible."

"Yes."

The silver-robed woman and her group of powerful warriors all flew into the War Beast Weapon.

"Roar~~~"

The three black War Beast, now under control, raised their heads and roared.

"Go. I will control the Grassland Cloud Realm to assist you." Iyer waved his hand and moved the three-headed War Beast out of the hall.

He wouldn't risk his life without first figuring out how many trump cards the cultivators had prepared for the final battle.

Moreover, the Grassland Cloud Realm was his most prized weapon of war; what he displayed when he killed Bolin was only its most basic power.

"Origin, burn!" Iyer's eyes seemed to burn with flames as he unhesitatingly activated the core of the ' Grassland Cloud Realm '.

Buzz~~~

Suddenly, almost every part of the grassland world began to be filled with a hazy blue light.
