To everyone's astonishment, a jaw-dropping scene unfolded.

Jin Jue, whose body had been shattered into countless fragments, began to recombine in an unbelievable way, as if time had reversed.

In the blink of an eye, Jin Jue's body reappeared completely before the Ninth Ancestor.

However, the Jinjue of this time was not the same as the Jinjue of that time.

His aura was noticeably weak and listless, and his power as a Celestial King was almost exhausted. His originally rosy complexion had turned extremely pale, like a candle flickering in the wind.

Immortal Kings are immortal beings; even a single drop of their blood is enough to shatter a world.

As long as there is a single drop of blood remaining, they can use that drop to reshape their bodies through recombination.

Therefore, to kill a Celestial King, one must possess extremely terrifying and powerful strength, capable of killing them in one blow, or continuously eroding their Celestial King body, Dao heart, and Celestial Soul; otherwise, it is impossible to completely kill them.

As one of the most outstanding Immortal Kings, Jin Jue is known as one of the Ten Most Invincible, and his strength is unimaginable.

Even so, faced with the terrifying strength of the Nine Ancestors, he could only helplessly admit his defeat.

Jin Jue spoke in a weak voice: "We are both among the Ten Great Masters, Yuan Shengyuan, your strength is indeed terrifyingly outrageous."

His words revealed his sincere admiration for the strength of the Ninth Ancestor, but also implied a hint of resentment and helplessness.

Then, Jin Jue took a deep breath and continued, "I, Jin Jue, am ashamed of my inferiority."

However, his tone suddenly shifted, and his voice became firm, "But, as one of the Ten Great Masters, you can only defeat and severely injure me. It is absolutely impossible for you to completely kill me!"

Upon hearing Jin Jue's words, the Ninth Ancestor couldn't help but let out a mocking smile, and sneered, "Ha! The Ten Absolutes?"

His tone was full of disdain, as if he didn't care at all about the so-called "Ten Great Masters" title.

"I have always looked down on these ten titles."

"And you, in my eyes, are like an ant."

His words were filled with endless contempt and disdain.

Then the Ninth Ancestor spoke in a cold, deep, and chilling tone.

"Today I will show you whether I can kill you or not."

As his words fell, the already terrifying aura emanating from the Ninth Ancestor intensified, instantly enveloping the entire space in a suffocating atmosphere.

Jin Jue's face turned as pale as paper under the pressure of this terrifying aura, and his originally smug look was instantly replaced by fear.

His eyes widened, and he stared at the Ninth Ancestor with disbelief, his body trembling involuntarily.

Huo Yan and Bing Jun, who were standing to the side, looked at each other in disbelief, both feeling an indescribable shock.

They exchanged a glance, both seeing the same thought in each other's eyes: "Just what kind of monsters are these Yuan Clan members?"

"Yuan Xingdao and Yuan Qianmo are already so powerful that they are able to kill and refine a ninth-level Immortal King."

"And this Yuan Shengyuan is even more terrifying, he can actually kill a top-tier expert!"

Just as the Ninth Ancestor was about to make his move, suddenly, a voice boomed like thunder in everyone's ears: "Fellow Daoist, please stop!"

Everyone looked in astonishment towards the sound, only to see two old men, one dressed in blue and the other in black robes, appearing suddenly not far from the Ninth Ancestor, as if they had crossed time and space.

The appearance of the two old men did not cause the slightest spatial fluctuation, as if they were meant to be there all along.

Upon seeing the two elders, Yuan Qianmo's expression immediately turned solemn. He said in a deep voice, "Quasi-Immortal Emperor level experts!"

Just then, everyone's attention was focused on the old man in the blue robe.

His expression was solemn. He cupped his hands to the Ninth Ancestor and said slowly, "Fellow Daoist, I hope that for the sake of my Xiantian Palace, you will be lenient and let Fellow Daoist Jin Jue off the hook."

Upon hearing this, the Ninth Ancestor snorted coldly and replied without any politeness, "What if I don't agree?"

His voice was cold and firm, clearly showing no intention of backing down.

Upon seeing this, the quasi-Immortal Emperor expert in the black robe frowned and said sternly, "If you insist on this, then today's matter will likely not end well!"

His words carried a chilling undertone, sending shivers down one's spine.

Upon hearing this, the Ninth Ancestor showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he burst into laughter, his voice deafening, as if the entire world trembled.

He declared loudly, "Haha! Let alone you, even if all those old fogies behind you were to be reborn, I would still be the same!"

The Ninth Ancestor's words were undoubtedly a provocation and contempt for the Innate Palace, shocking everyone present.

Upon hearing this, the two Quasi-Immortal Emperors from the Innate Palace were even more enraged and shouted in unison, "Insolence!"

With this angry shout, a powerful aura of destruction surged forth from them like a raging torrent, sweeping straight toward the Nine Ancestors.

This aura was like the end of the world, terrifying beyond measure, and seemed to tear the void apart wherever it passed.

Faced with such terrifying pressure, the Ninth Ancestor showed no fear.

He held the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Sword and swung it fiercely. A dazzling sword light shot out like lightning piercing the night sky, heading straight towards the two torrents filled with destructive energy.

In an instant, a deafening roar was heard, as if the entire world was about to be torn apart by this force.

The void shattered instantly under the impact of this immense force, and countless spatial cracks spread out like a spider web.
