Chapter 763: Saint? The Power of Mu Heng

Originally, they thought they had victory in hand, but who could have predicted that their strongest fighting force would be defeated by Ghost Buddha in a matter of moments, and their fate was unknown.

And as for Mu Heng, who was the key to breaking the situation, he was directly swallowed by Ghost Buddha!

The constant sounds of crunching echoed, and blood splattered from Ghost Buddha’s mouth. Qin Feng and the others’ eyes were filled with rage.

Ghost Buddha said indifferently, “After all, he’s just a bag of old bones. There’s not much bite to him.”

Floating big eyes glistened, “Don’t waste time. Extract his memories and see what the secrets of the Dao of Life and Death are.”

“The Dao of Life and Death you forcibly seized just now shouldn’t be complete.”

“Indeed, something is off. The Dao is something one comprehends themselves, but the old man’s secrets all seem to be in this black coffin.” With that, Ghost Buddha waved his right hand, and the black coffin that had fallen to the ground flew into his hand instantly.

Seeing this, Qin Feng’s expression darkened significantly.

‘Commander Fu and Bai Wudi haven’t returned yet, and we don’t know whether they’re dead or alive. We can’t sense their presence at all.’

‘With Old Master Mu dealt with, we’re on our own from here. But even three transcendence realm cultivators together couldn’t defeat him; what can we do?’

‘This guy can take other people’s Dao and has an undying and immortal ability. How should we deal with him?’

‘Wait, can I use Bai Su to connect to the Netherworld Underworld like before in the Ninefold Prison, and have the Ghost Lord take action?’

‘No, that’s not possible. The giant eye is also there; it won’t fall for the same trick a second time.’

‘The enemy’s strength is beyond imagination. Didn’t the teacher foresee this?’

In this desperate situation, Qin Feng’s mind raced, but every plan seemed like a dead end.

At that moment, An Mingzhi, who still had some combat power left, appeared in front of Qin Feng and the others in an instant.

“The power disparity is too great. We can’t stay here. I’ll take you away.”

As he spoke, An Mingzhi clasped his hands together. Ghostly Yin Qi surged around him, and in an instant, the shadow under his feet rose up, transforming into a colossal beast that was half the height of a mountain.

This was a creature formed from ghostly Yin Qi, with blue feathers, and an imposing aura.

Qin Feng recognized this creature from the “The Chronicles of Great Qian’s Hundred Demons” It was called a Qingluan, known for its speed and formidable strength.

“This is Senior An’s ghost spirit.”

The Hundred Ghost Dao lineage could take the spirits of deceased demons and ghosts and incorporate them into one’s own shadow for use, and this Qingluan was clearly one such case.

“Take them away!” With An Mingzhi’s thought, Qingluan spread its wings wide, and a gale howled. It intended to sweep the surviving people onto its back.

However, the Qingluan spread its wings for only a few breaths before a powerful force crushed it to dust!

Since ghost spirits share the same soul with practitioners of the Hundred Ghost Dao, when a ghost spirit suffers severe damage, its owner naturally suffers backlash.

An Mingzhi’s face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His life force and soul essence weakened to the extreme.

It was Ghost Buddha who made the move!

A red light shot out from the pupil of the floating eye, covering everything within a ten-mile radius.

The red barrier carried a strange aura that made people’s skin crawl.

City God spoke in a solemn tone, “This area has been sealed off. There’s no escape.”

With the escape route completely blocked, was their only option to fight to the death?

Qin Feng’s expression was grim.

At that moment, as Ghost Buddha attempted to read Mu Heng’s memories, he let out a soft “Hmm?”

“What’s wrong?”

“I can’t see his memories at all.”

The large eye paused for a moment, then spoke faintly, “There are only two possibilities for this. Either the entity you devoured was not alive, or he simply has none.”

Before he finished speaking, his voice abruptly stopped.

A surprising turn of events occurred. A hand suddenly reached out from the black coffin by Ghost Buddha’s side, grabbing hold of the speaking giant eye!

Then there was a loud bang, and fragments of red and white splattered everywhere!

After the person in the coffin dealt with the large eye, the arm swept towards Ghost Buddha.

Seeing this, Ghost Buddha gave a sinister smile and waved all six of his arms simultaneously.

Having absorbed Fu Ruoyun’s Dao, each of his arms had earth-shaking power!

Six arms against one hand, this confrontation should have been a no-brainer, but the result was the complete opposite.

Qin Feng and the others were incredulous as they watched Ghost Buddha’s six arms being shattered into pieces by a single slap from the person in the coffin!

Boom!

The ground cracked, and the space trembled. Ghost Buddha’s body flew backward like a broken kite.

The floating eye fell silent and did not respond.

It had the ability to foresee the future and had already seen the outcome of the battle.

Just as they finished their conversation, Mu Heng made a move. With a slight wave of his right hand, a barrier instantly rose up, enclosing them within.

The blazing flames seemed to be frozen in place, and everything within the barrier turned black and white.

This was the domain established by the Dao of Life and Death—the Destruction and Survival Realm. Within this domain, all immortal abilities were nullified.

This included abilities like the Plucking Stars and Seizing Life methods of the Netherworld Realm, the Destiny Monument techniques of the Immortal Realm, and even human methods like life flame enhancement would all be rendered ineffective.

Only Mu Heng could possess transcendent powers over life and death within this domain!

Ghost Buddha scanned the barrier, “I see. So this is the true power of the Dao of Life and Death.”

The floating eye cautioned, “The black coffin is a technique that seals his own power. He is doing this to preserve his strength or avoid being suppressed by the laws of this world.”

“If your creation of the incarnation dies within this domain, you will lose your life force in the Immortal Realm as well.”

“You are being overly cautious. No matter how strong he is, he’s just someone who broke through the realm. It will just cost me a bit more to project more strength into this world.”

As Ghost Buddha spoke, cracks appeared on the foreheads of the three Buddha heads, and his body began to expand, his skin rupturing and his flesh pulsating.

In just a few moments, Ghost Buddha’s body was gone, replaced by a monstrous, grotesque arm made entirely of accumulated flesh.

The arm was covered with numerous human faces, all crying out in pain. These faces were the souls of those it had devoured.

“Are all these the people you devoured?” Mu Heng asked with a frown.

At the top of the giant arm, an ugly face appeared and responded coldly, “There’s no need for anger. You will become part of my collection, and you will struggle in endless darkness. This is the price you must pay.”

As soon as the words were spoken, all the faces on the giant hand opened their mouths, and black beams of light began to gather within their screaming mouths. The entire world started to tremble.

Crack!

Crack!

Those were the sounds of space being compressed and shattered.

Qin Feng and the others, observing from afar, felt an unparalleled killing intent enveloping them.

The power of this attack was unimaginable!

Whoosh!

Almost simultaneously, all the black beams of light poured towards Mu Heng.

The space within the barrier collapsed completely, and nothing could be seen except the black light.

The floating eye did not choose to stay and witness its opponent’s annihilation. Instead, it used the Void Dao to escape from the barrier, heading towards the depths of the volcano.

This strange action left the giant hand puzzled, and a sense of unease arose.

The floating eye had the ability to foresee the future, which the giant hand had long been aware of. Its decision to flee at this moment indicated that the floating eye did not have confidence in the outcome of the battle.

Recalling how the floating eye refused to answer earlier when asked about the calculated outcome, a bizarre thought immediately emerged.

“It knows I will surely lose this battle.”

But how could that be possible?

The annihilating flash was its strongest attack, a culmination of many destructive Dao forces.

In the past, countless gods and demons had perished under this attack!

How could a mere human from a broken realm withstand this attack?

All the faces on the giant hand stared at the point where the black light dissipated and the void twisted. Slowly, shock, confusion, and fear appeared in its countless eyes.

As the black light slowly faded, a figure stood within the cracks in the void.

Mu Heng had blocked its most powerful attack with just one hand!

“Has no one ever told you that fighting someone in their own domain is akin to seeking death?” Mu Heng’s cold voice echoed, as he opened his right hand and then squeezed it tightly at the giant hand from afar.

Within the domain, countless black and white sinister ghosts appeared. In a fraction of a second, they all rushed towards the giant hand.

“This... impossible,” the giant hand said.

Crack!

Cracks began to appear on its body, one, then two.

More and more cracks formed, becoming denser and denser until finally—Boom!

With a loud explosion, its body turned to dust and was completely obliterated from this world.

Mu Heng paid it no mind, instead looking coldly ahead, towards the direction where the floating eye had escaped, also the location of the Western Extreme Region.
