Chapter 2245: Eye contact, confrontation

As soon as Zhixi entered the other side, Mu Cangyan put down the things in his hands, wearing a loose dark robe, wrapped in a mysterious black mist, tore through the void, and arrived in an instant.

The two were hundreds of miles apart, staring at each other from afar.

Many years ago, in order to help Ye Liujun break free from his confinement, Zhixi met with Mu Cangyan, but that was an incarnation of Mu Cangyan's will, not his real self.

Strictly speaking, this was the first time they met in their true form in more than six million years.

The glorious years of the past came flooding back uncontrollably like a tide.

I have so many mixed feelings that I can’t express them in a few words.

"Strolling around."

Zhixi finally stopped being silent, staring at the man in the black fog in front of her with an indifferent expression and spoke in a cold voice.

"From what I know about you, you're not one to hang around."

Mu Cangyan was hidden in the black fog, its massive body like a mountain vaguely visible. Its voice was hoarse, like a gust of sand blowing through its throat.

"You understand incorrectly."

On weekdays, Zhixi always appears aloof. Only a very few people can feel a hint of her tenderness.

Zhixi did not take out the jade box given by Emperor Taiwei immediately. If she did so directly, Mu Cangyan would most likely react and intercept her.

This matter concerns a trace of the original Dao seed of Emperor Taiwei, and there can be no slackness. If this item falls into Mu Cangyan's hands, it will be a big trouble.

"Although I know this isn't possible, I still want to ask if you're willing to join me in finding the path to immortality."

Mu Cangyan invited Zhixi several times, but was rejected every time.

This time, it is no exception.

"Boring."

Upon hearing this invitation, Zhixi refused without hesitation.

"Is war necessary?"

Mu Cangyan came in person, naturally not just for formalities. He knew that this war was inevitable, so he just asked one more question.

Zhixi was too lazy to say much and expressed her position through actions.

Swish!

Suddenly, Zhixi raised her hand, and a vast galaxy appeared, cutting through the sky, dazzling and brilliant.

The Milky Way appeared and suddenly locked onto Mu Cangyan, unleashing a terrifying and murderous force, causing the order and rules of this realm to collapse, bursting into billions of fragments of laws, as if hundreds of thousands of stars exploded at the same time, presenting a brilliant scene of the coming of doomsday.

Knowing that Zhixi would never stop, Mu Cangyan remained calm and immediately took measures to resist, extending his right index finger and pointing it at the air in front of him.

Pop! Chi!

A ray of extremely mysterious light, invisible to the naked eye, burst out from Mu Cangyan's fingertips and collided with the surging Diyun Galaxy.

The clash of Jidao Junwei instantly tore the outer area of ​​the other side into two halves.

In the middle of the two, a huge chasm over a million miles long suddenly appeared.

Chi Chi Chi!

Countless rays of light flashed, and various wonders appeared between heaven and earth. A dark blue sea of ​​fire burned the sky, and a dark brown river of Hades descended from the sky.

Just one head-on confrontation was enough to turn the world upside down and bring about the downfall of all things.

The sea of ​​red spider lilies growing nearby all died in an instant.

"You are indeed much stronger than before."

Zhixi stepped on the shattered Dao patterns of order, producing Dao lotuses that resembled the setting sun. She slowly walked forward, her eyes piercing the chaotic void, catching a clear glimpse of Mu Cangyan within the black mist. Recalling the past, she offered her assessment.

If it were the end of the ancient times, Mu Cangyan would not be able to resist Zhixi's attack so easily.

"Your time has passed."

Mu Cangyan's words are meaningful.

He admitted that in the late ancient times, he was far inferior to Zhixi. The situation now was different.

"Try it."

Zhixi's face was as cold as ice. How could she back down because of Mu Cangyan's warning?

"Then give it a try!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Cangyan's aura suddenly increased. He was like a tiger out of its cage, and a yin-yang diagram suddenly appeared behind him, flickering and fading, containing infinite mysteries.

At the same time, an ancient mirror appeared on his left.

The round, transparent, jade-smooth mirror was carved with hundreds of delicate, fine lines along its edges, a workmanship so exquisite it was flawless.

This item is called Yin-Yang Mirror, Mu Cangyan’s natal imperial weapon.

"kill!"

Mu Cangyan no longer suppressed the fluctuations of his own Dao power, untied the restraints, and vented freely.

From within the Yin-Yang Dao diagram, the destructive Dao of annihilation gushed out, and the black fog spread, covering every corner of the battlefield.

Whoosh!

In an instant, Mu Cangyan vanished from his spot and was in front of Zhixi, only a few feet away. He raised his hand and punched, his arms entangled with the ultimate chain, the fist roaring and annihilating all things.

Zhixi did not dare to be careless and immediately defended.

With a wave of his hand, the Yunhua Sushuang on his hand bloomed with a few strands of soft light. Instantly, an invisible and thick barrier condensed in front of him, on which Zhixi's original imperial pattern was integrated.

Boom!

The divine fist struck, and a large hole immediately appeared in the defensive barrier.

Under the impact of the huge force, Zhixi took half a step back, her eyebrows slightly frowned, obviously she had underestimated Mu Cangyan's ability.

However, Zhixi quickly adjusted her state. After a few breaths of stalemate, she found a better opportunity and controlled the imperial weapon, the jade flute, causing it to suddenly rush out from a void.

Whoosh! Puff!

Yu Di’s attack forced Mu Cangyan to devote some of his attention to solving the problem.

Although this sneak attack was unlikely to injure Mu Cangyan, he still had to take it seriously for safety's sake. He glanced sideways and waved his hand, repelling the rapidly charging Yu Di.

At the same time, Zhixi took the opportunity to dissolve the power of Mu Cangyan's annihilation fist, and stretched out his right hand through the air, grasping a jade sword.

The jade sword is not a physical entity, but is the manifestation of the imperial rhyme.

She is not a pure swordsman, but uses this method to exert her ultimate imperial power.

Hey!

She took another step forward, and the void beneath her feet exploded.

Then, starting from Zhixi's toes, a cloud of icy fog suddenly rose up and spread over billions of miles of territory.

Even the black mist emanating from Mu Cangyan's body was frozen.

Immediately, Zhixi shrunk the ground into an inch, holding the Emperor Yun sword in his hand, and thrust straight forward.

puff!

The sword formed by the entanglement of the supreme imperial power pierced through the sky and stabbed into Mu Cangyan's body protection barrier, causing a hole in it.

"It's not strong enough. Haven't you made any progress in all these years?"

Mu Cangyan's power became even stronger. The invisible rule of annihilation wrapped around the stabbing jade sword, crushing it into powder, and then the protective barrier with a small crack was repaired to its original state.

hum!

The next moment, Mu Cangyan took control of the Yin-Yang Mirror and attacked Zhixi head-on with an unstoppable momentum.

"It will satisfy you."

Zhixi wasn't angry, her expression remained as cold as ever. However, the chilling aura emanating from her body grew increasingly terrifying, creating a chilling purgatory.
