The Mountain Ancestor’s dual bodies combined, not becoming one person, but transforming into a four-faced, four-ard, four-legged figure fused halfway, resembling two beings back-to-back.
A strange glow enveloped the Mountain Ancestor.
A blood-red hue mixed with a touch of gray, like the statue of a god of slaughter.
The Saint Ancestor and Sea Ancestor watched the Mountain Ancestor’s transformation from below, instantly feeling a chilling fear.
"Be careful, his power seems different now."
The Saint Ancestor said with a frown.
The Sea Ancestor’s icy eyes trembled, struggling to equate the Mountain Ancestor before her with the one she once knew.
At the mountain’s peak, the Mountain Ancestor lowered his four eyes, reflecting the expressions of the three below.
His four eyes glowed slightly, seemingly enjoying the shock on the faces of the Saint and Sea Ancestors.
Suddenly, the Mountain Ancestor’s four hands ca together, forming a double "Mountain" seal.
"You three finally gathered together; now, I will make sure you die here!"
With his words, the shadow of Buzhou Mountain expanded once more.
This expansion occurred both internally and externally.
Outwardly, it expanded larger, pushing away the energy of the Sea of Realms, causing a massive surge of gray mist that seed to touch the Black Water Region.
Rumble!
Inwardly, it compressed further; previously, the protective barrier from the light of the Saint and Sea Ancestors spanned ten ters, but now it rapidly shrank by two ters, leaving only eight ters.
This was even with Ning Qi’s energy rging into their light wheels; otherwise, the barrier might have been compressed to half its size.
But this was only the beginning. As the Mountain Ancestor ford the seal, a double mountain shadow condensed within Buzhou Mountain, enveloping the three inside.
In an instant, the suppressive force they faced multiplied several tis over.
Their figures couldn’t help but sink heavily.
The protective shield around them collapsed by another ter, leaving only seven ters and continuing to compress.
Ning Qi gave a light shout, suddenly exhaling a breath.
"Break open for , Heaven-Supporting Pillar!"
Instantly, an imnse power from the True Martial Realm shot towards his location.
As soon as that power entered, it acted like several seeds, instantly taking root and sprouting in their area, rapidly drawing power from within Buzhou Mountain.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The seeds grew at a terrifying speed, branching out in all directions, in the blink of an eye transforming into several bare trunks growing horizontally and vertically.
From afar, it looked as if these tree shadows automatically constructed a massive beam.
Instantly, those trunks creaked under the internal pressure of Buzhou Mountain, emitting explosive sounds.
However, they held strong, with both flexibility and sturdiness, pushing back the compressed space to an eight-ter distance, resisting that terrifying compressive force.
The Saint and Sea Ancestors imdiately felt the pressure lighten.
The Sea Ancestor stared at the tree trunks growing in the surrounding space, saying, "Is this the power of that tree from the Mountain and Sea Realm?"
She had previously encountered the Seed of Jianmu, so she sensed a sowhat familiar aura from the trunks, yet it also felt subtly different.
"That’s right, it is."
The one responding to the Sea Ancestor was actually the Saint Ancestor, his avatar in the True Martial Spirit Realm had also witnessed Ning Qi summoning it.
Of course, the Enlightennt Realm Tree appeared twice before, both tis erging on its own, not deliberately summoned by Ning Qi, but the Saint Ancestor assud it was Ning Qi’s doing.
Ning Qi looked up.
The Mountain Ancestor’s four eyes gazed at the shadows of trees below, seemingly unfazed.
He said, "I guessed you would use the Seed of Jianmu’s power. I attained the legacy of Buzhou Mountain; did you not think of why I would deploy this Divine Technique?"
Instantly, one of the double mountain seals he held changed.
"Root-Seeking Art!"
Within the shadow of Buzhou Mountain, countless dark roots erged from the space, resonating in so mysterious way with the shadow of the tree summoned by Ning Qi.
All the roots swayed, simultaneously pointing in one direction.
In the Sea of Realms, far from the shadow of Buzhou Mountain, gray mist churned, gradually revealing a gigantic sphere.
Strangely, that sphere appeared as a massive void, with nothing within it.
The Mountain Ancestor said, "At last, I found the world where you are hiding!"
The Mountain Ancestor’s original plan was to devour and sacrifice two realms, involving the use of the Seed of Jianmu.
However, Ning Qi later took it away, stealthily integrating the two realms into the True Martial Spirit Realm.
The Mountain Ancestor was not truly discouraged by the disruption of his plans, as he still had hidden thods to reclaim everything.
However, everything hinged on Ning Qi.
As long as he could capture Ning Qi, nothing would change.
He did not know where Ning Qi took the two realms that should have belonged to him, searching through the void using every Secret Technique he mastered without success.
But now, Ning Qi, in his rescue of the Saint and Sea Ancestors, appeared within Buzhou Mountain and used the power of the Seed of Jianmu, allowing the Mountain Ancestor to trace the world where Ning Qi resided using the residual roots from the shadow of Buzhou Mountain.
Gazing at the massive void in the Sea of Realms, the Mountain Ancestor’s twin faces twisted into a sinister grin.
"I must admit, your hiding was indeed flawless; such a vast world, yet I couldn’t sense its existence at all."
His eyes also held a touch of shock, for neither the Mountain and Sea Realm nor the Vast Realm was as large as the void present now, not even combined.
Even the now-expanded shadow of Buzhou Mountain appeared smaller in comparison.
