***********************************
The Hunyuan Ancestors of all factions within the Infinite Hunyuan Space were watching intently.
The impending battle would fundamentally alter the future power dynamics of the entire Infinite Hunyuan Space.
"We're almost there."
The 89 Hunyuan Ancestors of the Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction gazed into the distance, representing the foremost power within the Infinite Hunyuan Space.
After having dominated half of the territory for epochs, they now faced challengers: the Practitioner Faction, led by merely eight Lords!
The Practitioner Faction had directly occupied the 1,600-world cluster of the Southern River Territory and showed no signs of stopping, infuriating the entire Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction.
For the sake of their collective interests, they had to give their all.
"Buzz~~~"
The group of Hunyuan Ancestors traversed vast space-time, their murderous intent radiating.
"Kill!" The serpentine shadow of the Infinite Serpent Ancestor blotted out the vast void.
Upon arrival, they wasted no words, launching an immediate, merciless attack to annihilate the eight Lords of the Practitioner Faction.
"Rumble~~~"
Space-time distorted violently!
The combined manipulation of space-time by the Hunyuan Ancestor of Space-Time and the Infinite Serpent Hunyuan Ancestor clashed with Lord Xingmang's control over the same fabric.
Meanwhile, an immense and intricate formation quietly operated in the background, seemingly favoring Lord Xingmang's efforts.
"In terms of space-time manipulation... the practitioners have the advantage here!" The Hunyuan Ancestor of Space-Time and the Infinite Serpent Hunyuan Ancestor were startled.
In previous confrontations, the gap between the two sides hadn't been so pronounced.
"Yuan's formation is having a profound impact on the world," the Hunyuan Ancestor of Space-Time transmitted.
At that moment, all the Hunyuan Ancestors sprang into action.
Among the numerous Hunyuan Ancestors participating in the battle, five possessed mastery over the highest tiers of Life Force - blood-red, azure, emerald-green, and other hues.
These five supreme Life Forces spread out, influencing every Hunyuan Ancestor present.
Various defensive powers, immortal energies, world forces, and Domains began to operate.
These thirty-nine Hunyuan Ancestors, experts in self-preservation, had honed their coordinated strategies through repeated drills. Their combined efforts now functioned as a single, cohesive entity.
"Their Domains are too formidable. My formation can't penetrate them," Yuan said, surprised, "They're now taking self-preservation measures very seriously."
The Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction viewed the Practitioner Faction as their true, formidable opponent.
Instead of focusing on victory, they prioritized survival, placing self-preservation above all else.
The combination of 39 top-tier life-saving abilities caused even the Eight Lords to grow pale.
Though each power was a diluted manifestation of the Hunyuan "Dao," their sheer number proved overwhelming.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!..."
The Hunyuan Ancestors coordinated their efforts, unleashing a barrage of killing techniques.
They had abandoned many close-range combat tactics.
In the previous war, the Giant God Emperor, Hunyuan Beast Ancestor, and Black Tide Hunyuan Ancestor had dared to charge into the Practitioner Faction's battle formations with their true forms.
Now, they dared not.
After having forsaken risky maneuvers, they had developed numerous joint killing techniques.
Illusions descended, penetrating the minds of the Eight Lords.
Though each Lord possessed extraordinary mental will power and could dispel the illusions, but the mixture of chaotic illusions and reality still slightly affected them.
"Boom~~~" With Yuan's assistance, Lord Xingmang, who had mastered space-time manipulation, now enveloped the Hunyuan Ancestors with his space-time techniques.
The Hunyuan Ancestors developed numerous timelines for the future, each a complete infinite Hunyuan Space.
The "future selves" and "present selves" along these timelines resonated with each other, their power influencing one another.
"Hunyuan Ancestor of Space-Time, suppress the interference from his timeline," the Wu Jin Hunyuan Ancestor transmitted,
"With Yuan's formation assistance and Xingmang continuously burning his Main Combat Clone, his manipulation of the timeline is exceptionally strong this time,"
the Hunyuan Ancestor of Space-Time replied.
She was already doing its utmost.
"Attack! Ignore everything else - focus solely on the attack!"
Ensuring their own safety, the Hunyuan Ancestors unleashed a barrage of coordinated attacks against the Practitioner Faction's Eight Lords.
Invisible toxins spread, some even piercing through all defenses to directly infiltrate the Lords' bodies and souls.
World-destroying powers descended!
Some vast and overwhelming, intent on crushing everything in their path; others detonating like Origin Core explosions; still others silently annihilating all matter...
Imperceptible forces also influenced each Lord, slowly 'corrupting' their bodies...
Ubiquitous energies erupted repeatedly within the Practitioner Faction's battle formations!
Cause and effect power forces struck...
And powers specifically targeting the soul...
Occasionally, an extremely devastating force would pierce through Yuan's formation head-on.
Although Lord Wu Lan and Luo Feng joined forces to resist it as much as possible, some destructive power still bypassed them and struck the other Lords...
"Hahaha! Yuan and Luo Feng's strength has surged dramatically! Our task has become much easier!"
"It's certainly improved compared to before."
Lord Moman, Lord Naigu, Lord Jin, and Lord Minghuang felt considerably relieved.
Before Luo Feng became a Lord, under such overwhelming attacks, their injuries would have steadily worsened, inevitably leading to defeat.
But now, the situation was completely different.
"This minor injury? It's hardly worth mentioning."
"The energy consumed by my Main Combat Clone has been fully restored in the blink of an eye."
Yuan and Lord Xingmang had been continuously burning their Main Combat Clones, consuming about ten percent of their energy reserves every breath.
Yuan's formation, now channeling the power of the Eight Lords, amplified their combined power, significantly reducing the impact of attacks on the Lords.
Lord Xingmang's mastery of space-time manipulation also weakened the attacks the Lords received.
With Luo Feng's healing and energy replenishment, the Lords felt only a slight breeze, considering the attacks merely "a touch of frost."
"The Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction's attack power poses no threat to us!" Yuan said with a smile.
"Let them see how formidable we are," Lord Moman said.
"Time Slaughter Formation!" Yuan commanded.
The Eight Lords, steady and composed, first blocked the Hunyuan Ancestors' attacks before launching their counterattack.
Their first strike was the Time Slaughter Formation, one of the Eight Great Slaughter Formations they had previously tested.
"Buzz..."
The formation activated.
Lord Moman's waves spread silently, permeating every corner of the void.
No one could escape its probing gaze.
"Cut."
Luo Feng also struck with his blade.
The blade's light condensed into an infinitely thin thread, merging perfectly with the forces of space-time and harmonizing with the waves.
Guided by the laws of the Hunyuan Void, the thread of blade light freely traversed timelines past, present, and future, rendering many defensive maneuvers useless as it slipped past them.
To the Hunyuan Ancestors, it seemed as if the blade's light was attacking simultaneously from different timelines, impossible to intercept.
"Can't see it."
"There's no way to block it."
They tried to evade the blade's light...
They tried to intercept it...
But it continued to strike as if from an illusion...
"This blade's light flows through different timelines. Unless we block all timelines within this span, we'll inevitably be struck," the Hunyuan Ancestor of Space-Time transmitted to her companions, "But there is nothing to fear. While the blade's light can traverse different timelines, it must return to the present timeline to strike. Moreover... its ability to flow through timelines limits its power."
"Swish!"
The blade's light descended instantly on the current timeline, slicing through a Hunyuan Ancestor's body and cleaving it in two.
Yet, aided by omnipresent Life Force, the Hunyuan Ancestor instantly recovered to its peak.
"The blade's power isn't strong, but it effortlessly split me in two!"
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
"Swish...!"
The blade's light of the Time Slaughter Formation swept repeatedly across the Hunyuan Ancestors.
In mere breaths, it had passed through all of them.
The Hunyuan Ancestors were bewildered.
Split in two?
With their vitality, even if divided into tens of thousands, they wouldn't die.
Moreover, their life-preserving formations had significantly enhanced their survival capabilities.
"These 89 Hunyuan Ancestors have already gathered partial intelligence," Lord Xingmang transmitted, "Although the Time Slaughter Formation's power isn't great, it's the most effective method for bypassing defensive formations and gathering intelligence. Knowing the enemy as well as oneself is crucial for victory."
Lord Xingmang immediately transmitted the battle plan.
In the war between the two great factions, Lord Xingmang was the one formulating the combat strategy.
Of course, even with flawless planning, the ultimate outcome still depended on strength.
"Be careful," the 89 Hunyuan Ancestors cautioned, not daring to let their guard down.
Although the Eight Lords had previously been mostly on the defensive, their counterattacks using the relatively weak Time Slaughter Formation had still managed to split the Hunyuan Ancestors protected by their formation in two.
Even though the Ancestors remained unharmed, they couldn't help but feel a flicker of fear.
"Boom!"
"Rumble!"
This time, the Eight Lords unleashed their full, unrestrained power.
The clash between the Hunyuan Ancestors' battle formations and the Eight Lords' formations erupted with devastating force, sending tremors that even reached the distant observers.
"As I anticipated, the Practitioner Faction's strength has surpassed that of the Icepeak Faction," the Bingfeng Hunyuan Ancestor thought, gazing at the twenty percent of territory now occupied by the Icepeak Faction.
'Can we still hold onto it?'
"Eighty-nine Hunyuan Ancestors combined are only equal to the Eight Lords?" The other observing Ancestors now fully grasped the Practitioner Faction's formidable power.
Suddenly-
Luo Feng ignited the Main Combat Clone wielding the Blood Shadow Blade.
The blade's power surged, infused with the power of Destruction, and slashed out with devastating force.
At that moment, all Eight Lords except Lord Wu Lan ignited their Main Combat Clones.
Through the coordination of their formations, their combined power channeled entirely into the sharpest edge of the Blood Shadow Blade in Luo Feng's hand.
The Blood Shadow Blade possessed unimaginable power, capable of cleaving through all matter and energy!
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
"Swish...!"
Though the formation of the 89 Hunyuan Ancestors offered formidable defense, the combined strike of the Eight Lords, led by Luo Feng, shattered every obstacle. Dozens of the highest-tier forces, meant to halt the blade, were severed in an instant.
The blade moved with such speed that it instantly struck the Dark Peng (An Peng) Hunyuan Ancestor, protected by layers of formations.
The moment the blade struck, waves of destruction, thunderous energy, and life-severing force erupted within the Dark Peng Hunyuan Ancestor's body.
Although the combined protective power of the 89 Hunyuan Ancestors rushed to save him, the Dark Peng Hunyuan Ancestor had been selected by the Practitioner Faction's Time Slaughter Formation as the easiest target.
In that instant, the combined forces obliterated the hidden Life Core. The corpse vanished instantly into the fabric of space-time.
The Dark Peng Hunyuan Ancestor had fallen in battle!
The Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction, now reduced from 89 to 88 Hunyuan Ancestors, sent shockwaves through both the combatants and the observing factions.
"Even with such caution, a Hunyuan Ancestor has still fallen?" Even the Nine Sovereigns found it hard to accept.
