Longevity Strange Immortal-Chapter 621 - 42: My Dao Is the Heavenly Dao (Part 2)
"Named Chunyangzi, he believes his Sword Dao can quell disasters. If I hadn't deliberately guided him, he'd probably still be wasting his efforts."
The Demon Ancestor chewed on dozens of souls, laughing loudly: "How can mortals control the Master of Time, so ridiculous, so ridiculous!"
Li Mo squinted his eyes, a flash of killing intent crossed them.
He pointed a finger at the sword blade.
The dark clouds behind him dispersed, revealing a bright full moon hanging overhead.
Taoist Intent [Time]
The Demon Ancestor felt time come to a standstill, as Li Mo passed him by neither quickly nor slowly. The moon in the sky merged into the Sword Tomb.
"Calming the Storm."
Li Mo whispered softly, and a sword mark appeared at the center of the Demon Ancestor's body.
Crack.
The Demon Ancestor's body fell to both sides, the cut was incredibly smooth.
Li Mo's temples had already turned gray; the cost of employing the Taoist Intent [Time] against the Demon Ancestor was significant, and his Undying Golden Body almost couldn't withstand it.
"Li Mo!"
The Demon Ancestor's body reassembled, but eighty percent of the previously digested avatars was wasted.
"How could the Heavenly Dao Realm be so weak? Demon Ancestor, keep eating, I'm watching."
Li Mo maneuvered around the Demon Ancestor, exhibiting the sharpness of Sword Dao to the fullest, forcing the Demon Ancestor to continue devouring avatars nonstop.
At this moment, the Demon Ancestor finally realized, Li Mo was far more powerful than he imagined.
"Li Mo, I already stand invincible; even if you cleave me with a thousand Sword Qi, you cannot harm me fundamentally, what's the point?"
The Immortal Mountain collapsed.
The Heavenly Court was completely destroyed, and the towering peaks were forcefully torn away by the two.
"Keep eating."
Without thinking too much, Li Mo provoked the Demon Ancestor with words, while each move and gesture was left to instinct, the sword glint growing more intense.
The Demon Ancestor didn't know how many souls he had swallowed, no longer resembling a human.
The cultivators of the Creation Sect stood in front of the Three Pure Ones Hall, watching the exchanges at the Immortal Ancestor level, as the entire Immortal Realm couldn't withstand the souls of the two.
Meanwhile.
The upheaval of heaven and earth was reaching its end.
Boundless corpses spread throughout the Devil Sect territory, deceitful objects piled up and surged.
The land of thousands of miles where Li Mo and the Demon Ancestor stood became a forbidden zone; any deceitful object that approached turned to dust in the aftermath, raising winds of white bone and sand.
Hell is empty, and the dead walk the mortal world.
Li Mo had no time to care about the upheaval; the situation had reached its most critical moment.
He understood the Demon Ancestor was about to step into the Heavenly Dao, but only when in a desperate situation could he grasp the elusive thing, otherwise, it would always be just a fantasy.
Li Mo's offensive changed, concentrating the sword light on the original Creation Book.
In response, the Demon Ancestor instinctively increased the speed of devouring avatars, causing his body to become deformed, growing countless heads.
"It's here."
Li Mo took a deep breath.
Quietly, the Demon Ancestor broke through the bottleneck, with brain tissue symbolizing the Heavenly Dao blooming branches and leaves, and flowers in various colors blossoming.
"Accumulations over hundreds of thousands of years cannot be erased by the Undying Golden Body!"
The Demon Ancestor laughed loudly, forcing his bloated body to stand upright.
Li Mo glanced at the original Creation Book, finding its pages nearly exhausted, representing the disappearance of Demon Ancestors from each timeline.
"It's enough; next, it depends on A Xiu."
Without hesitation, Li Mo retreated several miles, but his body still felt like it was stuck in mud, as if he was at the Nascent Soul Stage in the Void Realm, like fish on a chopping board.
He took advantage of the pause when the Demon Ancestor was sorting out body and soul to catch his breath, using a vast amount of Innate Essence to nourish his nearly exhausted flesh and bones.
The remaining Innate Essence was not much, barely enough to heal the wounds of body and soul.
Looking at the Demon Ancestor from afar, Li Mo noticed the upheaval of heaven and earth intensifying; apparently, the Master of Time couldn't wait to harvest this timeline.
Facing a great calamity, his Mental Realm became increasingly clear.
"The most critical part is left to A Xiu; if it's a complete loss, I'll accept it, maybe the Demon Ancestor can also transcend the Immortal and Mortal Realms."
The Demon Ancestor was another self, in a sense not considered a failure.
Li Mo smiled self-mockingly.
Since Chunyangzi turned into the Heavenly Dao with the Demon Ancestor's layout, Zu Xiuyun wanting to kill Chunyangzi would inevitably encounter the Demon Ancestor's obstruction.
Now that the Demon Ancestor had devoured the other avatars, Zu Xiuyun had a glimmer of hope.
The earth shook and the mountains swayed.
The Demon Ancestor walked slowly towards Li Mo.
Li Mo no longer avoided it. For a Demon Ancestor at the Heavenly Dao Level, the Immortal Realm was not vast; escaping was futile.
"Demon Ancestor, what is the Heavenly Dao?"
The Demon Ancestor did not reply and continued on his way in silence.
His state had already undergone Deviation. Devouring a clone did not come without a price; every muscle fiber was erratically out of control.
An eye mutated, and moments later, it transformed into a Deceitful Object, detaching from the Demon Ancestor's flesh.
The Demon Ancestor's tongue swept and rolled the Deceitful Object into his mouth. The derivations of the Heavenly Dao above his head were infinitely profound, allowing any creature that gazed upon it to gain sudden enlightenment.
Of course, the Taoist inheritances gained were all under the Demon Ancestor's control.
"What is the Heavenly Dao?"
The Demon Ancestor looked deeply at Li Mo and said in a low voice, "The Endless Void is a sea of suffering. The self-evolving Heavenly Dao can protect the Body and Soul."
"I see."
Li Mo came to a sudden realization. The Endless Void was like a vast and boundless forest; if one hadn't stepped into the Heavenly Dao, they could easily be assimilated.
The Demon Ancestor stopped, "Li Mo, do you still plan to resist? You can no longer threaten me. Why not willingly throw yourself into my belly?"
"After I attain the Undying Golden Body, I will surely preserve a wisp of your remnant soul, to be completely eradicated once we escape the Master of Time's domain."
Li Mo sneered and said, "Then I really should thank you."
"What a pity, though, for I would prefer to claim the head of the Master of Time."
"Such arrogance."
Li Mo's skin saw tattoos spreading; the structure of his Five Internal Organs and Six Viscera changed, transforming into a Beast-Cultivation dominated [Beast Cultivation Li Mo].
The Demon Ancestor was unfazed, glancing upward at the Master of Time.
"What a small trick. I have no time to play these games with you. The Master of Time is becoming restless; I must digest you first."
Shadows spread under Li Mo's feet.
Candle Dragon for bone, Ghost Tiger for skin, Mountain Demon for flesh, Red Fox for blood...
Roar!!!
A ten-thousand-meter Gluttonous Giant Beast emerged from the shadows, biting down on the Demon Ancestor's body, securing a precious moment of respite for Li Mo.
As soon as Li Mo's injuries stabilized, he heard the sorrowful wails from the Tattooed Beast. The Demon Ancestor spat out the head of the Gluttonous Giant Beast, hastening his pace.
"Not even a match for a single round, even if the Undying Golden Body excels over the Immortal Body..."
"I must risk everything."
Veins bulged on Li Mo's forehead, and arms grew from his ribs. The Undying Golden Body fused both [Mother Furnace Li Mo] and [Lifeless Mother Li Mo], plunging his body into mutation.
The flayed Buddha appeared, with the Lotus Throne beneath his feet composed of billions of beings.
[Evil Buddha Li Mo] was born.
"The Undying Golden Body is right here, come and take it!!"
Li Mo spread his arms, casting a storm of blows from all angles. The air was filled with the overwhelmingly thick exhaust fumes of industry, turning the flesh of the Immortal Mountain into countless nurtured Evil Buddhas within the soil.
Many Evil Buddhas hysterically chanted Li Mo's name.
Li Mo endured excruciating pain as every Buddhist Practitioner from previous generations named Li Mo merged with him, to withstand the oppressive presence of the Demon Ancestor.
"Interesting, but ultimately not at the Heavenly Dao Realm."
The Demon Ancestor spoke with indifference, his size unconsciously expanding beyond twenty thousand meters.
From within Li Mo, the sound of bones colliding echoed; his body began to compress bit by bit, the size difference between him and the Demon Ancestor growing ever more apparent.
Swish.
A long tongue shot out.
Li Mo dangerously dodged it, the Demon Ancestor's eyes filled with mockery.
Yet after only a few teases, he bound Li Mo with his long tongue, instinctively sensing something amiss.
From start to finish, Li Mo remained exceptionally calm; even while restrained, he continued to struggle.
A muffled sound.
Li Mo's body shattered, seizing one of the Evil Buddhas, but it merely delayed for a few breaths.
The Demon Ancestor glanced; the multitude of Evil Buddhas died or were injured, just as he said: the Heavenly Dao Realm couldn't be approached by the Immortal Ancestor.
Pfft.
The long tongue pierced through Li Mo's chest.
The Demon Ancestor eradicated Li Mo's vitality, tossing the shell into his mouth.
The massive jaws closed.
"Huh?"
Just as the sharp teeth were about to crush the shell, the clearly dying Li Mo inexplicably uttered a sentence.
"The Heavenly Dao is not my Dao. My Dao is the Heavenly Dao."
