After condensing that silver needle, Xiao Yan's face turned incomparably pale. Although he was no longer the same as when he had first entered the Sovereign Realm during the battle with the Evil Demon Emperor, summoning this technique still consumed a terrifying amount of energy. Let alone the fact that this time, the power of Annihilation of All Life was far greater than before.
After all, Annihilation of All Life was an ultimate technique Xiao Yan had created by fusing every ounce of power he possessed. And since defeating the Evil Demon Emperor, he had gained many new forces—such as the Ancestor Symbols, divine treasures of heaven and earth, the power of his Yuan Spirit, and more… With the exception of his Plane Seed, which he kept as a final fallback, Xiao Yan had integrated nearly all of his available strength into this one move.
The last time he used Annihilation of All Life, he had jumped several grades in power and killed the Evil Demon Emperor, who had tapped into the power of an entire plane. Naturally, the version he was unleashing now would only be more terrifying. Thus, when the silver needle formed in the void, the auras of the three enemies opposite him surged once again—and this time, they didn't just rise to the Ninth Grade Sovereign level, but crossed into the Earth Sovereign Realm!
At the moment their aura breached the Earth Sovereign threshold, the Sovereign Celestial Body summoned by Mu Chen transformed into an entirely different form. Though its size shrank to less than one-tenth its former self, its aura increased by more than a hundredfold. And more notably, there were no longer just three people on the opposing side—but five.
Two new figures had appeared beside Mu Chen, each identical to his original form. Clearly, they were some form of clone, but Xiao Yan could sense that these two doppelgangers were no weaker than the main body. Compared to the two avatars he had summoned earlier, Mu Chen's were clearly in an entirely different league.
At this point, Xiao Yan still lacked full knowledge of the Great Thousand World. Otherwise, he would have recognized that the technique Mu Chen was using was one of the Thirty-Six Peerless Divine Abilities—One Qi Becomes Three Pure Ones. A Divine Ability of terrifying power. Xiao Yan had even assumed that everyone in the Great Thousand World possessed clones as strong as their original body.
But for Xiao Yan, it didn't matter anymore. Whether they were Ninth Grade Sovereigns or Earth Sovereigns, this was his final move. If this technique failed, then he would be forced to activate the power of the Plane Seed and escape on the spot. No matter how strange this space was, it shouldn't be able to restrain the Plane Seed's ability.
Besides, Xiao Yan was genuinely curious about the full power of Annihilation of All Life. Though he was its creator, even he wasn't sure where its limits lay. That was why he had always saved it as a trump card. If the enemy didn't possess the ability to infinitely grow stronger, he would never have been forced to use it now.
"Go… Annihilation of All Life!"
The silver needle, which seemed devoid of any energy fluctuations, quietly shot forth. There was no sound, but the moment it emerged, the expressions on the faces of the trio—who had just stepped into the Earth Sovereign level—grew extremely solemn. Clearly, they had realized how extraordinary this attack truly was.
"Buddha's Wrath: Imperial Flame Lotus!"
As the attack approached, the Flame Emperor moved first. Over his head, his Imperial Flame roared to life and condensed into a lotus of brilliant fire that spanned ten thousand zhang across, rotating in the sky. In both scale and aura, this lotus was easily a thousand times more powerful than the one he'd used previously against Xiao Yan. Beyond the improvement in strength, it was clear that this time, the Flame Emperor had gone all out.
"Eight Ancestor Glazed Bowl! Eight Symbols of Oblivion!" Martial Ancestor followed closely. His rainbow-colored spear morphed into an ancient glazed bowl, forged from the power of all eight Ancestor Symbols. Radiant beams of light of differing elements shot out in unison, converging mid-air into a beam imbued with the power of annihilation. It followed right behind the fire lotus, hurtling toward Xiao Yan. Clearly, Martial Ancestor had also brought out his strongest trump card.
"Undying Divine Marks—Everchanging Form—Undying Divine Finger!" On Mu Chen's golden Sovereign Celestial Body, line after line of strange purple-golden Divine Marks began to form. Just as it seemed he had reached his limit, the two clones beside him poured their Spiritual Energy into his main body, instantly boosting the number of Undying Marks from twenty-something to over fifty.
When the fifty marks were complete, a massive purple-golden finger took shape and fired forward with a single point of Mu Chen's hand, joining the Flame Emperor's and Martial Ancestor's attacks in a three-pronged assault against the silver needle that looked like an ordinary sewing pin.
Even Xiao Yan himself was curious about how this collision would end. He didn't know the true upper limit of Annihilation of All Life, but given that it could threaten Earth Sovereign-level beings, it was likely one of the most terrifying techniques even among Divine Abilities.
Mu Chen's Undying Divine Finger, formed from fifty Undying Marks, was the first to collide with the silver needle. Though it dwarfed the needle in size by tens of thousands of times, the outcome couldn't be judged by size alone. Upon contact, the purple-golden giant finger instantly shattered, disintegrating into powder.
The next instant, the strange beam forged from eight Ancestor Symbols struck the silver needle. But no matter how much corrosion it attempted, the needle's speed never dropped. Eventually, the beam's energy was completely exhausted and dissipated into the void.
Anyone witnessing this would have been utterly stunned. The combined might of Martial Ancestor and Mu Chen's attacks could crush even an upper-rank Earth Sovereign, yet Xiao Yan—at just Sixth Grade Sovereign—had broken through both consecutively. He might even shatter the third one!
"Boom!"
Finally, the enormous fire lotus collided with the needle. After breaking two attacks in a row, the needle finally met resistance. Unable to maintain its power any longer, it fractured and shattered midair.
But at the moment it broke apart, a strange ripple suddenly erupted. The scattered silver fragments instantly transformed into a dazzling starry sky that engulfed the ten-thousand-zhang lotus along with the Flame Emperor, Martial Ancestor, and Mu Chen.
Then, countless beams of light burst forth from the starlight, forming an overwhelming torrent of Spiritual Energy that submerged the trio completely.
The once-burning lotus was extinguished in the face of this torrent, and the starry sky swiftly collapsed into a sphere—before silently vanishing into the void.
