Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit, and Mu Jiu never let his guard down when facing Yang Cheng.
Throughout the journey, he tried to get close to Yang Cheng, and he stayed close to Yang Cheng whenever Yang Cheng made a move, all in order to understand Yang Cheng's abilities.
Mu Jiu even had countless opportunities to ambush Yang Cheng, but he gave them all up.
Because Yang Cheng's strength is indeed formidable, and the inheritance of Qingyuan Daomiao Zhenjun is indeed a powerful inheritance that can rival that of Shenting Dayi, Mu Jiu is not absolutely certain that a single clone can kill Yang Cheng.
Moreover, he also coveted the inheritance of the Queen Mother of the West, so he had been waiting for Yang Cheng to kill the Queen Mother of the West and be completely exhausted before making his move.
After finally waiting for Yang Cheng to exhaust himself, he didn't expect that Yang Cheng could recover his strength to the peak so quickly, and even block his sneak attack.
For a powerful Yin-Yang Realm expert and the Lord of the Nine Netherworld to resort to sneak attacks against juniors is already quite despicable. If he were any more shameless, he would have threatened his family.
Unfortunately, Yang Cheng's parents are both dead, and he has no female lead or descendants to rely on. Even if Mu Jiu wanted to use despicable means to threaten him, he would not have the chance.
However, Mu Jiu was also confident that if a sneak attack failed, surely a direct confrontation with Yang Cheng, a realm master of the Yin-Yang Realm, would be enough to defeat him.
Until the Heavenly Eye appeared, its extremely powerful energy and its great divine ability that could pierce through the nine heavens and ten earths truly made Mu Jiu feel an overwhelming sense of powerlessness.
It wasn't that his main body couldn't withstand it, but rather that even if his clone unleashed its full power, it couldn't stop it.
Seeing that the divine light was already in front of him, Mu Jiu formed a hand seal, freezing space and time in front of him, turning into an invisible shield to slow down the time.
At the same time, the Yellow Springs water spread beneath his feet, and Mu Jiu's figure was about to disappear into it to hide.
But the next moment, a strange force suddenly made Mu Jiu's figure stop abruptly.
What should I do?
Wasn't he supposed to use the Yellow Springs Water to dodge the Heavenly Eye's attack?
Why am I still standing here?
The Soul-Stealing Technique hidden within the Heavenly Eye was activated, and Mu Jiu's memories were instantly erased.
But in that instant, the power of the Heavenly Eye shattered the frozen time and space in front of Mu Jiu, completely obliterating him!
Although the effect of Soul Stealing is only momentary, in a fight between people of Yang Cheng's caliber, that moment is enough to kill the opponent.
With his Heavenly Eye shut off, Yang Cheng instantly collapsed to the ground, his face deathly pale.
The power of the Yin-Yang Realm is far inferior to that of the Three Pure Realms. Heaven knows how the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden managed to venture into the Nine Netherworlds alone with the power of the Three Pure Realms and leave unscathed.
You can tell from Mu Jiu's attitude today; the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden is a thorn in his side.
With a wave of his hand, Yang Cheng placed the jade ring in his hand, which contained the inheritance of the Queen Mother of the West.
Gao Benrong walked over, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Yang..."
Yang Cheng waved his hand and said, "No need to say more, take Ji Man down the mountain and back to Haojing."
The Queen Mother of the West is dead, and all the dangers on and off Kunlun Mountain will no longer exist.
There are no immortal emperors in this world. Ji Man fell into the Queen Mother of the West's trap because he wanted to live forever. This is what he brought upon himself.
Bring Ji Man back to Haojing, return him to the dragon vein, and choose a prince to ascend the throne. The Zhou Dynasty will then naturally return to normal.
As for me, I don't belong here, and you don't need to ask me anything more. I'm leaving now.
Before Gao Benrong could react, Yang Cheng told the Reincarnation System that he wanted to return, and instantly stepped into the portal and disappeared.
Besides the Queen Mother of the West, there are many other evil things in this world.
Yang Cheng was already exhausted, so he didn't want to stay here any longer, lest he encounter any more unexpected events.
Back inside the Lingxiao Palace, Yang Cheng was so exhausted that he almost lost his balance for a moment.
With a casual gesture from the Heavenly Emperor, a golden light surged around Yang Cheng, instantly restoring his power to its peak.
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor."
Yang Cheng quickly bowed in greeting.
"Have we retrieved the legacy of the Queen Mother of the West?"
Yang Cheng took out the jade ring, which floated directly into the Heavenly Emperor's hand.
Nodding slightly, the Heavenly Emperor asked, "Indeed, was the journey successful?"
Yang Cheng said in a deep voice, "The acquisition of the Queen Mother of the West's inheritance went relatively smoothly, but I did not expect that at the last moment, Xuanming Mujiu, the Lord of the Divine Court's Divine King Realm, would use his clone to ambush me, trying to kill me and seize the Queen Mother of the West's inheritance. I was forced to fight desperately to kill the clone and escape back."
Yang Cheng obtained the inheritance of Qingyuan Daomiao Zhenjun, which makes him a high-level reincarnator in the Heavenly Palace. He has also caught the eye of the Heavenly Emperor and now has a powerful backer.
So of course he would complain in this situation.
The Heavenly Emperor frowned slightly: "Mu Jiu? Is it because of what happened last time?"
Yang Cheng said in a deep voice, "His main goal is probably to seize the inheritance of the Queen Mother of the West, and incidentally kill me to vent his anger."
The Heavenly Emperor paused for a moment, as if communicating with some being.
After a moment he asked, "You want revenge?"
Yang Cheng said coldly, "Of course I want to!"
The Nine Netherworld is domineering; they tried to suppress me with their power back then, but I managed to overcome it.
In the last battle on Paradise Island, everyone relied on their own abilities.
"He, Mu Jiu, doesn't dare to cause trouble for the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, nor does he dare to cause trouble for Pei Donglai, who has already advanced to the Yin-Yang Realm, yet he dares to come looking for trouble with me. Does he really think I'm a pushover, easy to bully?"
The Heavenly Emperor chuckled lightly: "You certainly hold a grudge."
I can give you a piece of information: if you want to retaliate against Mu Jiu for taking action against the Nine Netherworld, the Eastern Emperor will not interfere.
Mu Jiu has been at the peak of the Yin-Yang Realm for too long, and has been a Realm Lord for too long. He recently did something out of line, which has already aroused the dissatisfaction of the Eastern Emperor.
