Endless black mist filled the space, its ominous and annihilation aura rippling outward, making the expressions of several Earthly Supreme experts present turn grim.

None of the top faction leaders had anticipated that the greatest threat this time would come from the usually low-profile and least conspicuous Ice Pavilion Lord.

His entry into this Earthly Supreme Hidden Treasure was not just for the Spiritual Divine Liquid—he was also after the remnant power of the Frost Demon Emperor, which had been sealed and suppressed by the Thunder Saint.

The Frost Demon Emperor, once a powerhouse on the same level as the Thunder Saint, had been at the pinnacle of Perfected Earthly Supreme. Now, even though the Ice Pavilion Lord had only borrowed a portion of this power, he already possessed strength comparable to a Greater Earthly Supreme.

"Truly a well-calculated plan!"

The Snow Valley Lord also sensed the terrifying transformation of the Ice Pavilion Lord, her silver teeth clenched as she spoke coldly.

"But you are utterly insane! This kind of power from the foreign races is completely incompatible with our Great Thousand World. Using it to break through will only lead you to endless regret in the future!"

Though the Frost Demon Emperor had long been suppressed and eradicated, its power did not belong to the Great Thousand World. Even if the Ice Pavilion Lord could temporarily control it, he would undoubtedly suffer consequences in the future.

However, upon hearing this, the Ice Pavilion Lord merely chuckled coldly and said,

"Where in this world does one gain power without paying a price? But this price is still within my acceptable limits.

Once I obtain the inheritance of the Ancient Heaven Palace, I may very well rise to become the overlord of Skylaw Continent, elevating my Ice Pavilion to the ranks of the Great Thousand World's super forces."

"Heh, quite the ambition!"

Hearing this, even the Blood Shark Tower Master couldn't help but sneer. He had initially assumed that the Ice Pavilion Lord merely sought to unify the Blood Rock Realm, but who would have thought this guy actually wanted to rule the entire Skylaw Continent?

The Skylaw Continent was one of the super continents of the Great Thousand World. If one could seize it, the resources and territory would be unimaginable. It was entirely possible to amass enough strength to create a super faction.

But attempting to dominate Skylaw Continent? That was easier said than done. Unless the Ice Pavilion Lord could reach the level of Heavenly Supreme, his ambitions were nothing more than a fool's dream.

"The Ancient Heaven Palace's inheritance?"

While the Blood Shark Tower Master was mocking, Mo Yu's eyes flashed with sharp brilliance.

From the Ice Pavilion Lord's words, he clearly knew the greatest secret of Skylaw Continent—the legendary Ancient Heaven Palace, which had remained hidden for countless years.

In ancient times, it had been a fearsome super faction with countless powerhouses, even possessing Heavenly Supremes.

Mo Yu remembered that in the future, the third fate-chosen of the Great Thousand World, Mu Chen, would obtain the inheritance of the Ancient Heaven Palace's Master—the Heavenly Emperor—which would serve as the foundation of his rise.

However, Mo Yu had little interest in the Heavenly Emperor's inheritance. It wasn't because he feared stealing Mu Chen's fortune but because he had already chosen his Path of Thunder and had no intention of switching to the Heavenly Emperor's Arts.

"You actually know the secret of the Ancient Heaven Palace?"

Feng Yuanzi's aged eyes locked onto the Ice Pavilion Lord, his expression showing a trace of contemplation.

The Ice Pavilion Lord merely responded with an ambiguous smile. Then, his pitch-black, eerily sinister eyes swept across the gathered Earthly Supremes, a smirk forming on his face.

"Now, do you still believe I am unqualified to rule the Blood Rock Realm?"

The space fell into a deathly silence. The leaders of various factions were speechless. Even the Demon Domain Lord and the Barbarian Sect Master, both Earthly Supremes, had iron-gray faces. The sudden shift in the situation had clearly caught them off guard.

At this moment, Feng Yuanzi and the Snow Valley Lord exchanged glances before their gazes fell on Mo Yu. Now, only Mo Yu seemed capable of posing a threat to the Ice Pavilion Lord.

According to intelligence, even the Blood God Clan's Clan Leader, Xue Lingzi, was no match for Mo Yu—and Xue Lingzi was a Greater Earthly Supreme!

"Lord Thunder Emperor, the situation has come to this. We can only rely on you now. The foreign races are the enemies of our entire Great Thousand World. Only you can turn the tide."

Feng Yuanzi respectfully addressed Mo Yu.

"If Lord Thunder Emperor can eliminate the Ice Pavilion Lord and rid the Blood Rock Realm of this disaster, my Snow Valley will surely offer great rewards in return."

The Snow Valley Lord's beautiful eyes fixed on Mo Yu as she slightly lowered her delicate head.

"Huh? So you recognized me?"

Hearing Feng Yuanzi and the Snow Valley Lord address him as Thunder Emperor, Mo Yu was momentarily stunned, raising an eyebrow.

"Heh, it seems so. Although Skylaw Continent is quite a distance from Western Heaven Continent, those with sharp information networks would have caught wind of such major events. After all, the Blood God Clan is not unknown in the Great Thousand World."

Feng Yuanzi chuckled.

"Thunder Emperor?"

On the other side, Zhong Cang and the others were slightly taken aback upon hearing Feng Yuanzi and the Snow Valley Lord's respectful address toward Mo Yu. They exchanged glances, confusion flashing in their eyes.

"You know him?"

"Heh, Lord Thunder Emperor has recently risen to fame in the Great Thousand World. Even this old man has heard rumors..."

Feng Yuanzi smiled, then, seeing that Mo Yu did not refute the title, proceeded to share the intelligence he had gathered about Mo Yu with Zhong Cang and the others.

"What?! He captured a Greater Earthly Supreme—Xue Lingzi—and extorted one hundred million Supreme Spirit Liquid from the Blood God Clan?!"

Hearing Mo Yu's exploits, Zhong Cang and the others were utterly dumbfounded. When they looked at Mo Yu again, their eyes were filled with disbelief.

A Lesser Earthly Supreme defeating a Greater Earthly Supreme, and even extorting a hundred million Supreme Spirit Liquid from the Blood God Clan—one of the four great god clans of the Western Heaven Continent? If this hadn't come from Feng Yuanzi's mouth, they would have thought it was a joke.

"Heh, and apparently, Lord Thunder Emperor hails from a Lower Plane. That's the most astonishing part..."

Feng Yuanzi sighed as he glanced at Mo Yu with admiration.

The Lower Planes were the barren lands of the Great Thousand World, rarely producing true powerhouses. Yet, Mo Yu had shattered that precedent. His terrifying strength was rare even among the super factions of the Great Thousand World.

Zhong Cang and the Blood Shark Tower Master exchanged glances, both seeing a trace of lingering fear in each other's eyes.

Earlier, they had unknowingly provoked such a terrifying existence!

No wonder even when the two of them joined forces, they were effortlessly suppressed by Mo Yu. Now, his terrifying battle record made everything clear!

"Oh? So Mo Yu has such an extraordinary background. In that case, I'll forgo my claim on the Perfect-Grade Spiritual Divine Liquid."

"I have a proposal: let's form an alliance and dominate the Blood Rock Realm together. Then, we can expand our territories in the Northern Region and, perhaps one day, join forces to unlock the ancient celestial palace's treasure and reign supreme over the Skylaw Continent. What do you think, Mo Yu?"

At this moment, the Ice Pavilion Lord's eyes, brimming with demonic energy, flickered slightly before he turned toward Mo Yu with a smile.

Based on his understanding of Feng Yuanzi, the latter was not one to lie. This meant that Mo Yu was indeed an extremely mysterious and powerful individual. Since that was the case, it would be better to temporarily rope him in and find an opportunity to deal with him later.

After all, this person was too enigmatic—allying with him was akin to making a deal with a tiger!

However, in the present situation, he was confident that Mo Yu would not refuse his proposal. After all, the treasure of the ancient celestial palace was enough to tempt any Earthly Supreme powerhouse.

Power was authority, but it was also a devil that devoured people's hearts. Otherwise, he himself would not have chosen to collude with the Extraterritorial Evil Clan for the sake of strength.

Hearing that the Ice Pavilion Lord was trying to recruit Mo Yu, Feng Yuanzi and the others' expressions changed. A single Ice Pavilion Lord was already difficult enough to deal with—if Mo Yu joined him, they would have almost no chance of turning the tables.

Thinking of this, Feng Yuanzi locked eyes with the Ice Pavilion Lord, took a deep breath, and said solemnly, "Colluding with the Extraterritorial Evil Clan makes you a target of all in the Great Thousand World—everyone has the right to exterminate you!"

Although his words were directed at the Ice Pavilion Lord in anger, he was also subtly warning Mo Yu. Since Mo Yu came from a lower plane, he might not fully understand the crimes of the Extraterritorial Evil Clan. If he were tempted by power and allied with the Ice Pavilion Lord, it would be disastrous.

Once someone was tainted by connections with the Extraterritorial Evil Clan, they would become a rat hated and hunted throughout the Great Thousand World. Mo Yu was an intelligent man—surely he would not make such a short-sighted and self-destructive choice.

Hearing Feng Yuanzi's words, the Ice Pavilion Lord was momentarily stunned before sneering coldly. He then said angrily, "In that case, after today, the Dao Palace will cease to exist in the Blood Rock Realm!"

His furious declaration carried an overwhelming killing intent, sending chills through the assembled powerhouses, making them feel an imminent crisis.

"Then let me witness the power you obtained from colluding with the Extraterritorial Evil Clan," Feng Yuanzi sighed. The next moment, terrifying spiritual energy erupted from him like a storm, tearing through space.

He stepped forward, causing the void to tremble. His sharp, aged gaze shot toward the Ice Pavilion Lord like a bolt of lightning. Clearly, he understood that there was no room for compromise today—only a battle to the death!

"Heh, just an ant." The Ice Pavilion Lord chuckled lightly, his words laced with killing intent that spread like a tangible force.

"It seems that if my Ice Pavilion wants to rule the Blood Rock Realm, your Dao Palace will be the first obstacle in my path. Once I eliminate you, the other forces should fall in line."

The Ice Pavilion Lord smiled faintly and waved his sleeve. Immediately, surging black mist billowed outward, exuding a strange and sinister energy.

In an instant, the sky turned murky, and even the spiritual energy of the heavens and earth began to be corrupted.

Even Earthly Supreme-level powerhouses could no longer control the tainted spiritual energy…

As Feng Yuanzi watched the increasingly polluted environment, his expression darkened. The Ice Pavilion Lord actually intended to use the power of the Extraterritorial Clan to corrupt the entire space.

By then, this place would become a cage, making escape impossible.

"Everyone, attack together! Tear open space and retreat! As long as we can escape and spread the news, let's see how the Ice Pavilion will survive in the Blood Rock Realm!" The Lord of the Snow Valley shouted decisively.

In the Great Thousand World, all beings were extremely wary of the Extraterritorial Clan. If the Ice Pavilion Lord's actions were exposed, countless factions would inevitably unite to hunt him down. Even the top powers outside the Blood Rock Realm would not sit idly by.

"Attack together!"

The Barbarian Sect Master and the others immediately reacted. Without hesitation, they unleashed their attacks, sending terrifying beams of spiritual energy toward the ominous black mist.

Sizzle!

However, when their attacks struck the black mist, they only managed to disperse it momentarily before it quickly reformed, even stronger than before.

Seeing this, Feng Yuanzi and the others turned grim.

"Heh, stop wasting your efforts. With the power of the Frost Demon Emperor, I now possess strength equivalent to a Greater Earthly Supreme. How can a few Lesser Earthly Supremes like you possibly challenge me?"

The Ice Pavilion Lord's ethereal voice echoed from within the boundless black mist.

As his voice fell, he let out a cold snort and reached out into the void. Suddenly, space twisted violently as a massive demonic palm, formed from dense demonic energy, coalesced and shot toward Feng Yuanzi with devastating force.

Though it appeared unremarkable, the terrifying power within the palm made even Feng Yuanzi, a Lesser Earthly Supreme, feel a suffocating sense of dread. The overwhelming aura of death surged into his heart.

Boom!

At the exact moment when the Ice Pavilion Lord attacked, a chilling light flashed in Mo Yu's silver eyes. Without hesitation, he stretched out his finger and pressed down in the void.

The moment his finger descended, vast lightning-infused spiritual energy erupted, forming a colossal spiritual energy finger thousands of feet in size.

Layer upon layer of crystalline lightning covered the finger, rendering it seemingly indestructible.

The moment it appeared, the lightning-imbued finger shot toward the Ice Pavilion Lord, carrying a terrifying storm of thunder that caused space itself to collapse and shatter in its wake.

Faced with Mo Yu's sudden attack, the Ice Pavilion Lord's brows furrowed slightly. He had no choice but to abandon his attempt to kill Feng Yuanzi and instead turned to meet Mo Yu's attack with a counterstrike.

Boom!

The massive demonic palm roared forth, exuding an evil aura that made the world feel as if it had plunged into absolute silence.

As the palm descended, the entire space collapsed—viewed from above, it seemed as if an enormous void imprint had been stamped onto the world.

This strike was powerful enough to destroy the heavens and the earth.

Boom!

Lightning-infused finger and demonic palm collided with earth-shattering force. The resulting shockwave was so devastating that even a Supreme at their peak would have no chance of survival.

The slightest wisp of residual energy caused the void to shatter, and the destruction quickly spread, utterly obliterating the massive palace they were in.

Such terrifying power left the surrounding top faction leaders both stunned and fearful. They could hardly imagine surviving such an attack.

After a long moment, as the aftermath of the clash slowly dissipated, Mo Yu emerged from the void, looking at the Ice Pavilion Lord with a cold smile.

"I have no interest in your proposal. However, your collusion with the Extraterritorial Evil Clan... I don't like it. So... I'm going to have to ask you to die."
