Heaven Slaying Blade

To put it simply, most of the Red Serpent Clan beings have transformed into human-like forms, which gave Chu Mo—who had gotten tired of the ugly One-eyed Clan—a sense of familiarity. It seemed the aesthetics of the Gray Land weren't entirely awful.

Yet his actions were utterly decisive, clean, and sharp... brutally fierce!

A Red Serpent Clan being of the ancestral realm roared and charged toward Chu Mo. Chu Mo lifted his leg and struck without hesitation!

Ever since entering the ancestral realm, this was the first time he had fought so freely. His opponents… were mostly titans of the ancestral realm!

The thrill of such battle was truly invigorating!

With one kick, Chu Mo directly smashed the opponent's face. The entire head of the ancestral realm Red Serpent Clan being, who hadn't revealed their true form, was crushed into pieces!

The opponent's furious attack slammed into Chu Mo's chest, but it was blocked by Chu Mo's left arm. At the same time, a terrifying thunderbolt power instantly surged into the enemy's body through their arm.

The arm of the ancestral realm titan shattered instantly, followed by their body!

A dignified titan of the ancestral realm, an incomparably powerful existence, was defeated in a single clash, their physical form destroyed by Chu Mo!

The primordial spirit of the Red Serpent Clan titan escaped, staring at Chu Mo in shock. This style and manner of fighting were infinitely closer to that of humans. Since when did the One-eyed Clan have such overwhelming offensive capabilities?

But Chu Mo didn't give it the chance to speak. He raised his fist and struck without mercy!

This fist carried an unimaginable force—so powerful it seemed to hold the weight of an entire universe within its grasp!

BAM!

Chu Mo's punch exploded within the primordial spirit of the ancestral realm titan from the Red Serpent Clan, shattering it completely.

When the primordial spirit tried to reassemble itself amidst rage-filled screams, a dharma instrument suddenly shot out from Chu Mo's body, wildly absorbing the fragments of the spirit.

It was the Chaos Furnace!

Refine!

The terrifying power of the artifact frightened the primordial spirit of the ancestral realm titan so much that they almost lost their soul entirely!

Their very spirit trembled in terror!

They roared, "You are not of the One-eyed Clan… Who the hell are you?"

The roar echoed across the battlefield, even amidst the deafening chaos and cries of war, reaching every ear.

Countless One-eyed Clan warriors shouted back furiously.

"Bullshit! Meng Yi is one of the bravest warriors of our One-eyed Clan!"

"Not of the One-eyed Clan? Then are you—the ugly monster—a member?"

"Despicable Red Serpent Clan, save your underhanded schemes!"

"What utter nonsense!"

Their furious shouts merged into a thundering outcry that shook the battlefield.

The Red Serpent Clan titan didn't even have the chance to defend himself. Within mere moments, his primordial spirit fragments were all forcibly pulled into Chu Mo's Chaos Furnace, where they began being violently refined!

The enemy struggled desperately to escape, but Chu Mo's Great Dao pinned him down completely.

Over in the distance, General Meng Na took a deep look at Chu Mo without saying anything but continued battling several opponents relentlessly.

Suddenly, an ancestral realm titan of the Red Serpent Clan launched a fierce attack, striking Meng Na on the shoulder.

The attack carried a ferocious Great Dao force. Meng Na coughed up blood on the spot, suffering significant injuries.

The other ancestors of the Red Serpent Clan seized the opportunity to unleash their strongest dharma instruments, unleashing their most devastating attacks to ensure Meng Na—the commander of the One-eyed army—would be utterly destroyed!

This city's defensive forces were far stronger than Meng Na had initially described to Chu Mo. Perhaps Meng Na had been sabotaged by his internal informant.

But now wasn't the time to analyze the situation. Chu Mo saw Meng Na trapped in a dire situation and didn't hesitate for a moment. He immediately took out Heaven Slaying, stepped on the Chaos Furnace that was refining the primordial spirit of the ancestral realm Red Serpent titan, and activated the divine artifact Cangqiong Mirror above his head, while his Thousand Word Divine Text armor shielded his body. He charged toward Meng Na with unyielding courage.

CRACK!

Chu Mo's blade struck the shoulder of an ancestral realm titan who was about to land a hit on Meng Na.

The strike sliced the ancestral titan clean into two halves!

The sheer devastation of this attack was terrifying beyond imagination!

Even battle-hardened Meng Na, accustomed to witnessing monstrous warriors, couldn't help but twitch his facial muscles uncontrollably.

No matter who this person was, such battle strength… was simply too astonishing!

But Meng Na had no time to dwell on these thoughts. He unleashed his full strength, grabbing one of the opposing ancestral realm titans and adopting the stance of mutual destruction!

Before slashing another titan of the Red Serpent Clan, Chu Mo's left arm suddenly radiated boundless golden light, striking another ancestral realm titan with an immense force. The blow sent the enemy flying, shattering their body mid-air into smithereens!

Their primordial spirit fled in panic, not daring to utter a word, retreating frantically toward the city.

At this point, Meng Er and Meng San—the ancestral realm titans of the One-eyed Clan—arrived swiftly.

They intercepted the remaining two ancestral titans of the Red Serpent Clan.

Boom! Boom!

General Meng Na unleashed a desperate and ferocious attack, critically wounding his opponent, almost completely destroying them!

In this realm, dying was exceedingly hard. But within battles between equals, outcomes could either be decided over endless millennia or resolved in mere moments!

At the cost of severe injury, Meng Na killed the ancestral titan of the Red Serpent Clan directly.

"The young prince is dead!"

"The young prince is dead!"

"The One-eyed Clan killed the young prince!"

The battlefield erupted with frenzied cries of panic.

The mention of the "young prince" left Meng Na utterly shell-shocked. Observing more and more Red Serpent Clan titans emerging from the city and attacking, he clenched his teeth and escaped toward the distant horizon.

Chu Mo and other ancestral beings of the One-eyed Clan followed closely, breaking through space as they fled.

Those remaining One-eyed Clan forces suffered a disastrous fate, drawn into a frenzy of slaughter by the furious Red Serpent Clan warriors!

The carnage continued for days on end. In the end, the trillion-strong army brought by Meng Na was completely annihilated!

Fewer than a hundred escaped!

And among them, twenty to thirty were hunted down by relentless ancestral beings of the Red Serpent Clan. Along the way, other cities' Red Serpent Clan elites blocked their escape with relentless aggression.

Chu Mo shielded Meng Na all the way until they escaped the Red Serpent Clan's territory. Yet at the end, there were only thirty-some individuals remaining, including Chu Mo himself.

Among the ancestral titans, only ten survived—including Chu Mo and Meng Na.

Upon reaching the One-eyed Clan's territory, General Meng Na burst into tears. The trillion-strong army that was annihilated meant nothing to him, as they were merely expendables—destined to die either in this war or in some other tunnel battle in the future.

Thus, Meng Na cared little for the casualties.

But what he cared about was his personal elite guard!

A contingent of three thousand One-eyed Clan elite guards, meticulously chosen and trained—they were his most prized force!

Among them, the weakest were at the peak of the Great Saint Realm, and they included over a hundred ancestral titans of the One-eyed Clan!

Now, just counting the survivors from his elite guard: only ten ancestral titans remained, including himself. Barely more than twenty remained in the Great Saint Realm. This battle had cost Meng Na nearly everything he had!

Even if Meng Na returned to his clan's high command, he'd be severely punished. And on top of everything, he had committed an unprecedented catastrophe.

The mention of the young prince from the Red Serpent Clan had paralyzed Meng Na with fear. Amidst their frantic retreat, he had finally pieced together the shocking realities of what had transpired.

Turns out his informant hadn't sabotaged him. Based on Meng Na's army size and strength, that city should've been conquerable. While the process wouldn't have been easy, ultimate victory had seemed inevitable. But, as fate would have it, just when Meng Na made his move, the direct descendant of the old Red Serpent sage—the young prince—had stopped in the city for rest and resupply.

Upon seeing someone bold enough to attack this place, the young prince came out to battle with his entourage in high spirits.

Initially, even the Red Serpent Clan residents hadn't taken it too seriously; the young prince was indulging in the thrill of combat, so they let him battle. Who could've imagined, however, that Meng Na's forces concealed a monstrous presence like Chu Mo—a warrior capable of slaughtering equally powerful beings as effortlessly as cutting vegetables? Before the Red Serpent elites realized the prince was in danger, it was already too late. Meng Na, as ruthless as ever, traded his own grievous injuries for the young prince's life!

This was a disaster of cosmic proportions!

Not only would it bring catastrophe to the One-eyed Clan, but also doom all the beings of the Red Serpent Clan city where it happened…

Who could predict whether the old sage of the Red Serpent Clan would lose their mind and retaliate?

Deep down, Meng Na knew he was utterly finished; there was no chance of redemption anymore!

He could vividly picture what awaited him: if he dared return to the One-eyed Clan's territory, he'd immediately be restrained upon arrival. Then, he'd be handed over without hesitation to the Red Serpent Clan in hopes of appeasing their fury. All his loved ones, his remaining resources… would also be confiscated and offered to the Red Serpent Clan royal family.

In short, he was ruined.

Ruined completely.

And as for his surviving guards? Their fates would be equally grim.

Most troubling of all… Chu Mo—an anomaly—was still by his side.

Upon crying his heart out, Meng Na looked at Chu Mo with bloodshot eyes and said, "Thank you, brother. If not for you, I wouldn't have had a chance to escape. No matter who you are, this war has nothing to do with you. You were dragged into this mess because of me."

Chu Mo looked at Meng Na and asked, "Are the consequences severe?"

Meng Na sighed bitterly and said, "Severe doesn't even begin to describe it. Let me put it this way: right now, I have absolutely nothing left! No family, no resources, no rank or status! The Red Serpent Clan wants to skin me alive, and the One-eyed Clan… is probably going crazy trying to hunt me down as well."

Then, Meng Na looked at Chu Mo and the other survivors. "You all should leave. The farther, the better! The Gray Land is vast; there are many places where you can hide. Go, never return! If you must, I think Evil Foot Sovereign might have room for you. Especially you…" He looked at Chu Mo. "With your strength, you won't have trouble finding a way to survive wherever you go!"

Chu Mo gazed fixedly at Meng Na and responded earnestly, "Let's go together!"

Meng Na's surviving guards knelt immediately and declared, "General, we live and die with you!"

Touched, Meng Na's lone eye glistened for a moment, then dimmed with resignation. He shook his head and murmured, "Go? But where?"
