Chapter 77: The Spirit World

Chapter 77: The Spirit World The Spirit World was in complete chaos. The ground trembled, and many spirits in the city fell into utter despair as a massive object plummeted from the sky. They watched in hopelessness as the enormous object was about to crash into the Spirit World.

But then, an immense power surged from somewhere, slicing the descending world into two parts instantly. The remnants of the split world were destroyed by two spirits radiating immense power.

One spirit in the group breathed a sigh of relief. "It's the Rainbow Guardians! We're safe!"

Just as hope and relief began to spread, a void suddenly opened up, and a massive hand reached out toward the Spirit Emperor. One of the Rainbow Guardians quickly stepped in to block the attack, shouting with determination,

"Do you think you can touch our Emperor so easily?"

Before his words even faded, another void opened, and a young man stepped out from it. As he emerged, a terrifying pressure weighed down on every spirit present. They all felt an overwhelming sense of danger, knowing that if they made even the slightest mistake, they could be killed instantly.

"Who are you?" one of the Rainbow Guardians asked, but there was no reply from the man. However, everyone knew that the man before them was human—and incredibly powerful.

The Rainbow Guardian spoke again, his voice cautious, "Do you humans intend to start an all-out war with the Spirit World?"

Jiang Yun smiled faintly before responding in a cold tone, "Weren't you the ones who started this first?" As he spoke, he lightly stomped on the ground, and a massive ice dome appeared, covering nearly the entire area and instantly killing some of the spirits.

The Spirit Emperor looked at Jiang Yun with interest before saying, "Step back. I'll handle this myself."

The Rainbow Guardians, shocked by this command, quickly retreated, leaving the battle to the Spirit Emperor.

"What is your name?" Ling Meng asked. "I have never seen you before."

Jiang Yun smiled and replied, "My name is Jiang Feng."

Ling Meng nodded slowly before introducing himself, "I am Ling Meng."

Jiang Yun nodded with a smile. "Ah, I see."

The two smiled at each other before clashing immediately. The battle was fierce, with both exchanging blows and powers with great skill. They alternated between attack and defense with every move. Jiang Yun unleashed the Void Sword Technique, creating thousands of void swords that he sent hurtling toward Ling Meng.

Just before those swords could strike their target, Jiang Yun's arm was unexpectedly severed, and a sword pierced through his chest. However, Jiang Yun did not show any sign of pain.

Ling Meng spoke in a mocking tone, "Aren't you surprised by my illusion?" He continued his relentless assault.

Suddenly, Ling Meng split into millions of clones, attacking Jiang Yun from all directions. Jiang Yun smiled and waved his hand, creating a void around him that absorbed all the attacks and then unleashed the energy back, destroying the false clones. However, as the clones perished, they released a thick mist, obscuring everything from view.

Jiang Yun thought quickly, "A tough opponent indeed... the Dream Physique..."

But he smiled and purposely left three weak points exposed, all critical points. Just as he expected, Ling Meng immediately targeted them. But as the attacks drew near, Jiang Yun activated a void, swallowing the attacks and redirecting them back at Ling Meng.

The sound of blood dripping echoed softly as Ling Meng's body was struck. Simultaneously, a sword thrust through Jiang Yun's chest. "You're the most cunning and challenging opponent I've ever faced..." Ling Meng said as he coughed up blood.

Jiang Yun spoke calmly, "You're no less formidable yourself, but that's where it ends."

With those words, Jiang Yun pulled the sword out from his chest, and his body began to heal rapidly, ready for the intense battle to continue.

The fight between Jiang Yun and Ling Meng resumed with renewed vigor. Powerful energy waves radiated throughout the Spirit World as they clashed. They stood facing each other, their eyes gleaming with a mutual sense of enjoyment. The ground trembled under the immense pressure, and nearby spirits perished instantly.

Ling Meng made the first move, splitting into thousands of clones and attacking Jiang Yun from every direction. Each illusion had the same power as the real one, and every attack was brutally fierce. Jiang Yun quickly realized that he was facing an opponent of considerable difficulty. He created waves of void around him, absorbing the incoming attacks and redirecting the energy to destroy Ling Meng's clones.

But Ling Meng was not one to be easily outmaneuvered. He transformed the remaining illusions into dragons that launched a deadly assault on Jiang Yun from all sides. Jiang Yun evaded the attacks swiftly while creating ice walls to defend himself. Many of the dragon illusions were frozen immediately, but several continued the fight.

Jiang Yun smiled faintly, stomping the ground lightly as the power of the void expanded like a wave. The surrounding area was engulfed by the void, quickly obliterating the remaining illusions. But before Jiang Yun could counterattack, Ling Meng reappeared from behind and struck with a razor-sharp illusionary sword. Jiang Yun summoned a shield of starlight to cover his body, but Ling Meng's sword still managed to pierce through, leaving a deep wound on Jiang Yun's body. Yet, he remained steadfast with a determined gaze.

"Finally, the real one!" Jiang Yun exclaimed as he summoned a massive ice sword, glowing with the power of the stars. The sword flew toward Ling Meng at incredible speed, mixing void power, ice, and starlight in the attack.

Ling Meng defended just in time by turning an illusion into reality, but the impact of the ice sword shattered the ground into fragments. Ling Meng split into millions of clones again, this time creating a thick mist to obscure the battlefield. Jiang Yun tried to locate the real Ling Meng but couldn't pinpoint his exact position.

The dense fog was not just a visual obstruction; it had the power to distort reality. Jiang Yun realized he was facing a Dream Physique capable of turning illusions into reality without limit. He activated the "Void Separation Technique," and suddenly, a small black dot appeared, beginning to swallow everything around it. Ling Meng, seeing the black orb devouring everything, thought to himself that if he didn't stop it, the entire Spirit World would be consumed. He activated his dream technique, turning reality into a dream instantly, and the black orb became harmless, causing no further damage.

Ling Meng was panting heavily, but he remained standing and began to laugh. Jiang Yun looked at Ling Meng with interest, both knowing that this battle would soon reach its conclusion.

"You are the strongest opponent I have ever faced," Ling Meng said, spitting out blood.

Jiang Yun smiled slightly and responded, "You're not bad either. I've never encountered anyone who could switch between reality and illusion like you." seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

As they prepared for another clash, their powers continued to grow. Both surged forward, their energies of void, ice, and starlight clashing with illusions and reality. The intensity of the collision shook the entire Spirit World.

But as the dust settled, both Jiang Yun and Ling Meng stood firm, neither heavily wounded, both still strong.

"A draw..." Ling Meng muttered softly. Jiang Yun nodded in acknowledgment. The battle ended in a stalemate, with both earning the respect of the other's power and skill.

"I'll remember you, Jiang Feng," Ling Meng said before disappearing into the void.

"And I will remember you too, Ling Meng, but although our battle ended in a draw, I've achieved what I wanted. Farewell for now—we'll meet again," Jiang Yun replied as he began to heal his wounds while Ling Meng silently watched Jiang Yun disappear into the void, making no attempt to stop him.

In the grand hall of the Spirit World, filled with swirling energy and the shadows of spirits floating in the void, Ling Meng sat on a high throne. Surrounding him stood several Rainbow Guardians, their demeanor respectful, yet the atmosphere was tense and silent. One of the guardians stepped forward, presenting a tightly sealed scroll to Ling Meng with a grave expression.

"What did he take?" Ling Meng asked coldly as he took the scroll from the guardian. The guardian did not reply, merely bowing his head in respect and stepping back quietly.

Ling Meng opened the scroll and began reading its contents. His eyes scanned the text slowly before a twisted smile of delight appeared on his face.

"Ahh... good... good... I'm going to savor you, Jiang Feng... You'll be mine... let me taste you... ahhh... so delicious..." he whispered to himself, his voice filled with dark satisfaction and an intense desire. The smile remained fixed at the corner of his mouth.

"Sss... I hope you won't disappoint me... Jiang Feng," he murmured, licking his lips.
