No hope for eternal life

Chapter 536 The original and the clone

Outside the Tiansheng Realm, Mu Changsheng and Lin Yu attacked continuously for half an hour and finally broke through the Tiansheng Realm's sky-covering formation.

Mu Changsheng and Lin Yu both felt heavy-hearted about this. On the one hand, their actions were equivalent to indirectly killing most of the creatures in the Tiansheng Realm. On the other hand, they both realized how difficult Emperor Changsheng was to deal with, which could be seen from the unusually tough sky-covering formation just now.

"Recover for a while first, don't rush into the Heavenly Saint Realm." Mu Changsheng reminded Lin Yu that they needed to be in the best condition to fight against the Changsheng Emperor.

While Mu Changsheng was recovering, he was also paying attention to the battle situation in the Tianling Realm through his white-clothed clone. Xiao Niansheng had invited Ji Tianyu to take charge of the Tianling Sect in advance. While Ji Tianyu was in charge of the Tianling Sect, he could also assist Xiao Niansheng and others in the battle. Since the appearance of the Black Demon clone, no new enemies had appeared, so the situation was relatively stable.

After another half an hour, Mu Changsheng and Lin Yu recovered and stepped into the Tiansheng Realm.

As soon as they arrived at the Tiansheng Realm, Mu Changsheng and Lin Yu realized that something was wrong. The spiritual power of the Tiansheng Realm was too strong, even surpassing that of the Tianling Realm. This was very abnormal.

Suddenly, the sky-covering formation appeared again, and at this time Mu Changsheng and Lin Yu were temporarily trapped in the Tiansheng Realm.

"This great formation." Mu Changsheng frowned as he observed the newly appeared Heaven-covering Great Formation. It had been difficult to detect from the outside before, but now that he was inside, he easily discovered that the power of the formation came from underground. To be precise, it was the underground spiritual vein of the Heavenly Saint Realm!

"No wonder the formation is so strong." Mu Changsheng suddenly realized that with the power of the entire Tiansheng Realm's spiritual veins as support, how could it not be strong? Moreover, Mu Changsheng seriously suspected that their previous breakthrough of the formation was just an illusion, and the Changsheng Emperor deliberately let them in!

Soon, the appearance of the Great Emperor Changsheng verified Mu Changsheng's guess. Under the blessing of the Heavenly Saint Realm's great formation, the Great Emperor Changsheng was so arrogant that he said fiercely: "Today, neither of you will leave alive!"

The Great Emperor Changsheng certainly knew that Mu Changsheng and the other two were here to slay demons and eliminate evil, and he also wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of Mu Changsheng and the other two.

"How dare you mobilize the power of the spiritual veins of the Tiansheng Realm so casually? You deserve to be cut into pieces." Mu Changsheng said angrily. The spiritual veins must not be moved lightly. The actions of Emperor Changsheng may damage the foundation of the spiritual veins, causing the Tiansheng Realm to become as barren as the Tianhuo Realm in the future.

"You ignorant boy, let alone the spiritual veins of one realm, I can move any of the spiritual veins of the nine realms if I want to." The Great Emperor Changsheng sneered. His life span was coming to an end, and he had no taboos. There was simply nothing he could not do.

"Damn it, these demons deserve to die." Mu Changsheng cursed in his heart. If there were more people like Emperor Changsheng, the Nine Realms would not be corrupt enough even if they had more spiritual veins. He didn't dare to imagine what the Nine Realms would become after losing their spiritual veins.

In fact, a cultivator from the Nine Realms once deduced that once the Nine Realms' spiritual veins are destroyed, the entire Nine Realms will enter a Dharma Ending Age with spiritual energy exhausted. By that time, let alone reaching the Eighth or Ninth Realm, it would be extremely difficult to cultivate to the Golden Elixir or Nascent Soul stage.

On the other side, Lin Yu sent his clone to rescue the remaining cultivators in the Tiansheng Realm, while his original body stayed behind to prepare to deal with the Changsheng Emperor together with Mu Changsheng.

Afterwards, according to the prior agreement, Mu Changsheng took the lead in attacking the Changsheng Emperor to test the opponent.

The Changsheng Emperor accepted all challenges and immediately exchanged punches with Mu Changsheng. The powerful force of confrontation pushed both Mu Changsheng and the Changsheng Emperor back, but Mu Changsheng retreated thousands of miles before he could stabilize his body, while the Changsheng Emperor only retreated a few steps.

"Be careful, his power is stronger than before in the Tianling Realm." Mu Changsheng reminded Lin Yu that the increase in Emperor Changsheng's strength was obviously due to the blessing of the great formation.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu nodded slightly, drew his sword, and no longer let Mu Changsheng face the Emperor Changsheng alone.

Afterwards, sword energy was all over Lin Yu's body, and he slashed out one after another. He did not attack the Emperor Changsheng, but attacked the Heaven-Covering Array in the sky. With the blessing of this array, the Emperor Changsheng was almost invincible in the Tiansheng Realm. Therefore, if anyone wanted to defeat the Emperor Changsheng, they had to break the Heaven-Covering Array above their head first.

Moreover, Lin Yu was vaguely uneasy about the existence of the Heaven-Covering Array. Only by completely breaking through the array could she and Mu Changsheng come and go freely, attacking or defending.

The Great Emperor Changsheng was not at all panicked when he saw this. This sky-covering formation was what he had painstakingly built over tens of thousands of years. Now that it was connected to the spiritual veins of the Heavenly Saint Realm, it was no exaggeration to say that it was the most stable formation in the Nine Realms.

Despite this, Emperor Changsheng still directed his attack at Lin Yu. Compared to Mu Changsheng, whose physical body was equally strong, Lin Yu was obviously easier for him to kill.

As soon as Mu Changsheng saw the Changsheng Emperor move, he guessed what the Changsheng Emperor was planning, and hurriedly stood in front of Lin Yu and confronted the Changsheng Emperor head-on.

"You are really looking for death." The Emperor Changsheng was fed up with Mu Changsheng clinging to him like a piece of taffy and attacked Mu Changsheng with all his strength. In his opinion, Mu Changsheng was still inferior to himself. If he fought to the death, he would definitely suffer certain internal injuries. Even if Mu Changsheng's body was strong, the internal injuries would accumulate to a certain extent and it would be irreversible. Then he would also have the opportunity to kill Mu Changsheng.

However, Mu Changsheng did not think so. He believed that Lin Yu would be able to break through the Heaven-covering Array before he could not hold on any longer. Then he and Lin Yu would have a chance to kill Emperor Changsheng together.

This is a gamble. Either the Great Emperor Changsheng completely defeats or even kills Mu Changsheng before the formation is broken, or he will end up facing a joint siege by Mu Changsheng and Lin Yu.

"It's a pity that even though my cultivation and my physical body have reached the ninth realm, my strength is still not as good as that of the Changsheng Emperor." Mu Changsheng sighed inwardly. He couldn't help but think of something Lin Yu mentioned not long ago. Lin Yu said that her clone was always weaker than the original body, and the reason was unknown. Was it because he was a clone that he was always weaker than the Changsheng Emperor in terms of strength?

Mu Changsheng couldn't think of an answer to this question for the time being, so he could only secretly note it down and study it later.

In this way, Mu Changsheng was responsible for fighting against the Changsheng Emperor, Lin Yu was responsible for breaking the formation, and occasionally he would allocate a few sword energies to help Mu Changsheng, and the situation was temporarily stalemate.

On the other side, Lin Yu's clone quickly traveled around the Tiansheng Realm, seeing widespread grief and misery along the way. It was a horrible sight. The Great Emperor Changsheng had not lied before, the cultivators here were indeed forced to connect their lives with the Great Array of Covering the Sky. The only thing Lin Yu could do now was to try his best to rescue those who were still alive, put them into the Dongtian Ring he carried with him, and then take them away from the Tiansheng Realm.

Outside the Tiansheng Realm, there has actually been a figure secretly observing the battle situation in the Tiansheng Realm. This person is one of the Black Demon's clones.

After seeing that the Heaven-Swedish Covering Array of the Heavenly Saint Realm was reopened and that Mu Changsheng and Lin Yu failed to break through the array in a short period of time, the Black Demon's clone left with peace of mind.
