The massive altar was shrouded in deathly silence.
All the spectators stood in stunned silence, their eyes fixed on the tall, slender figure still standing in the center of the plaza. Though he had decisively defeated Xue Ming with ruthless means, his expression remained calm. His pitch-black eyes were like deep pools, making it impossible to gauge their depths.
At this moment, many of the powerful figures present felt a newfound sense of awe for this human who, at first glance, was merely at the Half-Step Eighth Grade Supreme level.
That awe stemmed from his sheer strength.
Because at the beginning, no one had believed that Mo Yu could have any chance of winning against Xue Ming. After all, there was a full grade difference between them.
In the Supreme Realm, a difference of one grade was like an insurmountable chasm—only the most monstrous geniuses could hope to bridge such a gap.
And reality had now proven that Mo Yu was precisely such a monstrous genius. They had simply been too blind to recognize it earlier.
"This guy is truly unfathomable..."
The silence stretched on for a long while before someone finally couldn't help but mutter.
With just Half-Step Eighth Grade Supreme strength, Mo Yu had defeated Xue Ming, who had already stepped into Half-Step Ninth Grade Supreme and even possessed a Quasi-Saint Artifact.
This overwhelming display of power made everyone understand why Mo Yu had shown no fear even when facing Xue Ming.
Compared to the shock and awe felt by the various experts, the expressions of the Blood Sky Flood Dragon Clan's members were more blank and dazed.
They stared at the blood-soaked, utterly battered Xue Ming lying on the ground in disbelief.
The pride of their Blood Sky Flood Dragon Clan... had lost?
And not just lost—he had been defeated so swiftly and decisively by a mere Half-Step Eighth Grade Supreme human?
No matter how much they refused to accept it, the truth was undeniable. Even Xue Ming himself, besides his overwhelming hatred, now felt only deep fear.
Atop the altar, Mo Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. As he surveyed the area, countless gazes fell upon him, each carrying varying degrees of respect and fear.
Seeing this, Mo Yu immediately understood.
After this battle, none of the experts present would dare to challenge him lightly—including the forest python prodigy, Qing Ling, who had also set her sights on the Ancient Heaven Swallowing Python's lineage.
After all, Xue Ming had already served as a grim warning.
If nothing unexpected happened, Cai Lin would now be able to approach the Ancient Heaven Swallowing Python's stone sculpture and successfully obtain the inherited essence blood.
Mo Yu's gaze shifted toward the Blood Sky Flood Dragon Clan's gathering place. Upon noticing his attention, the clan members immediately became vigilant, though not overly fearful.
No matter what, they were still part of the Blood Sky Flood Dragon Clan. Even if they were merely a branch of the True Dragon Clan, they still held their pride.
They acknowledged Mo Yu's terrifying strength, but they weren't worried that he would attempt to slaughter them all.
Xue Ming had lost, but that didn't mean the Blood Sky Flood Dragon Clan would hold a grudge against Mo Yu. However, if Mo Yu were to attempt to wipe them out, then he would be making a true enemy of their entire clan.
And that was a consequence that neither he nor the Heaven Swallowing Python Clan—nor even the Thunder Prison he had recently established—could afford.
Mo Yu clearly understood this as well.
Thus, he did not press the issue further. He merely cast a cold, warning glance at Xue Ming and his clan members, making his stance unmistakably clear.
Xue Ming could only grit his teeth and swallow his rage. After witnessing Mo Yu's terrifying strength firsthand, he no longer dared to provoke him.
Having helped Cai Lin secure the Ancient Heaven Swallowing Python's bloodline inheritance, Mo Yu did not relax. Instead, his gaze shifted toward the stone sculpture of the Primodial Ancestral Ape.
His fight with Xue Ming had served two purposes—one, to eliminate an eyesore, and two, to clear the path for Cai Lin. Now that his goal was achieved, it was time to focus on his own opportunity.
No matter what, he had to obtain the inherited essence blood of the Primodial Ancestral Ape.
However, he was concerned that once he left, someone might take advantage of his absence to target the Ancient Heaven Swallowing Python's inheritance.
Sensing his hesitation, Cai Lin approached him. Her delicate lips curled into a confident smile as she reassured him, "Go ahead, leave this to me. Don't forget, I'm not just a pretty face."
Mo Yu was momentarily stunned, then chuckled softly.
Even though over a decade had passed, he had never forgotten—back on the Dou Qi Continent, Cai Lin was the renowned Queen Medusa. Her beauty was matched only by her fearsome reputation, and back then, even he had been wary of her.
Nodding slightly, Mo Yu said, "In that case, I'll go claim the Primodial Ancestral Ape's inheritance. As long as I remain undefeated, no one will dare lay a hand on the Ancient Heaven Swallowing Python's legacy."
As long as he maintained an unbroken winning streak, with his support, no matter how much the other prodigies resented Cai Lin for securing the Ancient Heaven Swallowing Python's inheritance, they would never dare to cross the line—lest they face his wrath.
After all, in this world, strength was the ultimate rule.
With Cai Lin reassured, Mo Yu wasted no time. Under countless stunned gazes, he directly stepped into the plaza before the Primodial Ancestral Ape's stone sculpture.
Boom!
The crowd erupted in an uproar.
No one had expected that after helping his teammate obtain the Ancient Heaven Swallowing Python's inherited essence blood, Mo Yu would immediately head toward the Primodial Ancestral Ape's inheritance.
Was he trying to monopolize both inheritances by himself?!
Among the crowd, the pale-faced Xue Ming sneered resentfully. However, a trace of ridicule surfaced on his lips as he muttered,
"This fool really thinks he's invincible, doesn't he? The Primodial Ancestral Ape's inheritance has already been claimed by Hou Jun of the Titan Ape Clan. That guy's strength is far superior to mine."
"If Mo Yu overestimates himself like this, he might end up losing everything—including the Ancient Heaven Swallowing Python's essence blood!"
As he spoke, a dark gleam flickered in Xue Ming's eyes.
If Mo Yu lost the battle for the Primodial Ancestral Ape's inheritance, Cai Lin wouldn't be able to hold onto her claim alone.
Thinking of this, Xue Ming's gaze turned venomous. At this moment, he was undoubtedly the one who most eagerly hoped for Mo Yu's downfall.
Not far away, Han Yue and Mang Lie exchanged shocked glances.
"Mo Yu is actually challenging Hou Jun of the Titan Ape Clan?!"
"It's said that the Titan Ape Clan's divine strength is unmatched in the Divine Beast Continent—even the True Dragon and Phoenix Clans are wary of them. Is Mo Yu being too reckless?"
Upon hearing this, Mang Lie and his sister both showed a trace of concern on their faces. For them, the best outcome would be for Mo Yu to escort Cai Lin safely, allowing her to accept the Ancient Heaven Swallowing Python's bloodline inheritance without any complications. That way, they could complete their mission without unnecessary trouble.
However, they could also see Mo Yu's unwavering determination to obtain the Primodial Ancestral Ape's bloodline inheritance.
Therefore, all they could do was silently pray that Mo Yu would emerge victorious against the prodigy of the Titan Ape Clan. Otherwise, even the Ancient Heaven Swallowing Python's bloodline inheritance would be at risk.
At the stone-carved plaza of the Primodial Ancestral Ape, Mo Yu appeared in a flash. He looked at the emaciated man in yellow robes standing opposite him, cupped his hands, and smiled. "Apologies, but I, too, am interested in the Primodial Ancestral Ape's bloodline inheritance."
Mo Yu had heard of this prodigy from the Titan Ape Clan before. The man's name was Hou Jun, a standout among the younger generation of the Titan Ape Clan.
The Titan Ape Clan was a formidable race, no less powerful than true dragons and phoenixes. For Hou Jun to rise above his peers within the clan, his strength was undoubtedly extraordinary—far superior to the likes of Xue Ming.
However, no matter how formidable his opponent, Mo Yu would never back down when faced with the prospect of obtaining the Primodial Ancestral Ape's bloodline inheritance.
Meanwhile, across from him, Hou Jun's gaunt face did not show a hint of displeasure or anger upon seeing Mo Yu. Instead, his eyes gleamed with excitement as he chuckled.
"I, Old Hou, have been waiting for you for a long time. You possess the bloodline of the Heaven-Shaking Force Ape. It's only natural that you wouldn't pass up the chance at the Primodial Ancestral Ape's bloodline. You didn't disappoint me."
As one of the top talents of the Titan Ape Clan, Hou Jun had rarely encountered worthy opponents in his life. Ever since he set his sights on the Primodial Ancestral Ape's bloodline inheritance, no challengers had come forward, leaving him deeply disappointed.
For Hou Jun, finding an opponent who could ignite his fighting spirit was, in some ways, more valuable than the bloodline inheritance itself.
And among all the prodigies of the Divine Beast Continent, only Mo Yu—who had risen like a comet—had managed to catch his interest.
Seeing the excitement on Hou Jun's face, Mo Yu was momentarily stunned. He hadn't expected this guy to be such a battle maniac. However, Hou Jun's straightforward nature made him somewhat likable.
Compared to someone as insidious as Xue Ming, Hou Jun was much easier to deal with.
"I watched your fight with Xue Ming just now. From what I see, your strength is no weaker than an ordinary Ninth Grade Supreme. Since that's the case, let's not waste time testing each other. Let's go all out with our strongest moves and decide the winner in a single strike. What do you say?"
As Mo Yu was still processing his thoughts, Hou Jun clenched his fists tightly. A powerful aura erupted from his body as he laughed heartily.
Hearing this, Mo Yu didn't refuse. Instead, he chuckled and nodded. "Since that's the case, let's settle this in one move."
"Haha! Mo Yu, your personality suits my taste. Regardless of whether I win or lose this battle, I, Old Hou, will be your friend from now on."
Before Mo Yu could respond, a terrifying surge of spiritual energy erupted from Hou Jun's body. This spiritual pressure was even stronger than Xue Ming's, proving that Hou Jun had truly stepped into the Ninth Grade realm.
Hou Jun was actually a Ninth Grade Supreme! As expected of a supreme genius of the Titan Ape Clan!
Feeling the immense spiritual pressure, all the divine beast prodigies present couldn't help but reveal expressions of awe. Ninth Grade Supremes were only a step away from breaking through to the Earthly Supreme level.
Although everyone knew how difficult it was to take that final step, standing before a true Ninth Grade Supreme, none of them could remain calm.
Xue Ming, in particular, looked at Mo Yu with unconcealed mockery. With Hou Jun's strength and the power of the Titan Divine Might, what could Mo Yu possibly use to win?
Once Mo Yu was defeated—perhaps even gravely injured—the Ancient Heaven Swallowing Python's bloodline inheritance, which had seemed within his grasp, would be lost as well.
Thinking of this, Xue Ming could barely suppress his laughter at Mo Yu's foolishness!
Boom! Boom!
At that moment, an extremely dangerous aura erupted from Hou Jun's body.
Crimson spiritual energy, resembling raging flames, surged outward like a tidal wave. From a distance, it looked as if he was engulfed in a sea of fire. In an instant, the fiery spiritual energy expanded to a height of several hundred feet, dyeing the entire sky blood-red.
At the same time, Hou Jun's pupils underwent subtle changes, and a savage, beast-like aura seeped from his body, bit by bit.
His hands also began to expand, resembling the massive claws of an ape. With a single squeeze, the air itself shattered under his grip, while a stone staff appeared in his grasp.
"The Titan Divine Might…"
Mo Yu's gaze sharpened as he looked at Hou Jun's hands. As expected, they had swelled significantly, with veins bulging like coiled dragons, radiating overwhelming strength. Dark-red spiritual energy coiled around his palms, continuously burrowing in and out through his pores.
After activating the Titan Divine Might, Hou Jun's combat strength had practically doubled—similar to entering a berserk state.
At this moment, Hou Jun exuded an overwhelming sense of danger!
Yet, instead of fear, Mo Yu's black eyes flickered with a blazing battle intent that was enough to send chills down one's spine.
It was the exhilaration of wagering one's life in a battle to the death!
Since Hou Jun had chosen to go berserk, then Mo Yu would risk everything!
Taking a deep breath, Mo Yu's body began to emit a blood-red aura that swirled around him.
This aura was brimming with an intense, slaughterous energy—so fierce and relentless that it seemed as though he was willing to risk everything, even his own life, to break through this dire situation!
A terrifying killing intent surged into the sky, forming a spiraling storm of energy around Mo Yu, mirroring Hou Jun's crimson spiritual flames. The massive boulders in the surroundings were instantly crushed into dust under the overwhelming pressure, dissipating into the wind.
"What's going on?!"
Beyond the battlefield, numerous powerful figures witnessed this scene, and their expressions changed drastically. Their eyes were filled with shock and doubt as they stared at the slaughterous aura surrounding Mo Yu. In that moment, their pupils shrank.
Because the sheer intensity of that killing intent sent chills down their spines.
The aura emanating from Mo Yu left no doubt in their minds—this man would stake his very life on this battle. Even if he were to fall into the abyss of death, he would drag his enemy down with him!
He was a complete madman!
"That's a fist intent! But… this isn't something an advanced divine technique can produce!"
Among the spectators, a few knowledgeable experts pondered for a moment before suddenly exclaiming in shock.
If it wasn't an advanced divine technique, then that meant it had already surpassed the realm of divine techniques.
And what lay beyond divine techniques? The domain of divine abilities!
A power that only true Earthly Supreme-level experts could wield!
Did this mean that Mo Yu… was unleashing a divine ability through his fist technique?!
