Chapter 986 - 424: Ning Qi Battles the Mountain Ancestor (Part 2)

"What, you say you are..."

The avatar of the Saint Ancestor and the Vast Realm Will were hit by a massive wave upon hearing these words.

No matter how experienced they were, no matter how many battles they had witnessed, nothing shocked them as much as learning Ning Qi’s identity.

The shock was far greater than when they learned of Mountain Ancestor’s ambition to sacrifice the entire Mountain and Sea Realm.

Mountain Ancestor looked toward the avatar of the Saint Ancestor and the Vast Realm Will.

It was clear that Ning Qi had informed those two of his true identity, but without his consent.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze sharp, and smiled:

"Very well, now that I know it is you, things will be easier!"

Previously, he had been concerned about an enemy of their level hiding in the shadows, never showing themselves, which made him wary.

Ning Qi had practically admitted it was him lurking, allowing Mountain Ancestor to set his mind at ease.

Now, he had battled undefeated across two realms, suppressed Sea Ancestor and Saint Ancestor, and had arrived at the core of the Vast Realm.

He had also easily sealed the Saint Ancestor’s avatar and the Vast Realm Will within the Vast Realm.

The only obstacle to his existence, even he hadn’t expected, would be Ning Qi, that genius born from the Spirit Domain under his command.

"Hahaha, the world is indeed interesting, always full of surprises!"

Mountain Ancestor suddenly burst into laughter.

He took a step forward, shrinking the ground into an inch, teleporting his hulking figure right next to Ning Qi’s reincarnated body, and threw a punch at Ning Qi.

"Let me see just how powerful you are to show yourself now."

As the punch landed, the power of the entire cavern seemed to converge into Mountain Ancestor’s fist.

The World-Devouring Roaming Dragon continued to devour the cavern’s energy; his punch seemed supported by the entire world!

Ning Qi’s reincarnated body suddenly took a deep breath, and his eyes burst with dazzling divine light.

As Mountain Ancestor’s fist came towards Ning Qi, a strange dragon scale body appeared between them, blocking Mountain Ancestor’s punch.

The entire cavern shook violently.

Mountain Ancestor was momentarily stunned.

The World-Devouring Roaming Dragon he had unleashed suddenly appeared willingly, no longer under his will, blocking his punch to protect Ning Qi, as if Ning Qi were its master.

This...

Everyone stared at this scene, each showing a look of disbelief.

Could it be true; how did Ning Qi manage this?

Observing further, the divine light erupted in Mountain Ancestor’s eyes, seemingly vying for control of the World-Devouring Roaming Dragon.

But between them, more and more dragon scales appeared, transforming into armor that layered over Ning Qi.

Simultaneously, they formed a dragon scale shield, blocking Mountain Ancestor’s punch!

Ning Qi smiled at Mountain Ancestor and said, "Sorry, but this dragon is mine now!"

He reached out, and instantly, a giant dragon shadow appeared in the cavern, moving swiftly towards Ning Qi.

Countless dragon scales began to detach from the dragon, turning into a tornado, flying towards Ning Qi in unison.

With the collapse of the World-Devouring Roaming Dragon, the strength behind Mountain Ancestor’s punch weakened.

Next, the dragon head snapped towards Ning Qi, nuzzling like a playful dog.

Ning Qi reached out, gently stroking the dragon head, intending to extract the core treasure from within it.

This World-Devouring Roaming Dragon was a divine technique of Mountain Ancestor, with the branch of the Seed of Jianmu as its core.

The Seed of Jianmu had the power to devour worlds, which previously allowed him to swiftly seal the core of this Vast Pan, as well as suppress the Vast Realm’s own will and the Saint Ancestor’s avatar.

However, Ning Qi had completely subdued the Seed of Jianmu and merged it into the Enlightenment Realm Tree and the True Martial Spirit Realm.

Any branches or dead leaves of the Seed of Jianmu scattered outside, Ning Qi could reclaim.

Therefore, how could Mountain Ancestor possibly use the power of the World-Devouring Roaming Dragon against Ning Qi?

In front of Ning Qi, his strike was merely walking into a trap!

"Impossible, this is my sorcery! Even if you seize the Seed of Jianmu, there’s no way you could compete with my Buzhou Mountain heritage!"

Mountain Ancestor, seeing this, his vicious face revealed malevolent intent, becoming fearsome to behold.

Unexpectedly, he dove headfirst into the giant dragon head, transforming his punch into a claw, gripping the withered branch inside the dragon head.

A dreadful power seeped into the barren Jianmu branch, turning it black.

Ning Qi immediately sensed that his connection with that branch had been cut off.

Moreover, the dragon scale armor he wore seemed intent on leaving him, wanting to return to Mountain Ancestor.

Ning Qi quickly stored the dragon scale armor and shield in his Storage Space.

His avatar and main body shared the same Storage Space, so his main body instantly sensed it, retrieved them, and integrated them into the True Martial Realm.

Those dragon scales were initially leaves of the Seed of Jianmu, transformed into dragon scales by Mountain Ancestor’s magical power.

But once they entered the True Martial Spirit Realm, all the dragon scales instantly reverted to withered leaves.

The Enlightenment Realm Tree dropped a branch, and all the withered leaves flew towards it, reattaching themselves, turning from yellow to fresh green.

The return of these withered leaves seemed to strengthen the Enlightenment Realm Tree once more.

Mountain Ancestor held the Seed of Jianmu’s branch, and a terrifying aura infused it, turning the branch jet black.

And then, the next second, the branch transformed in his hand into an incredibly sharp Divine Sword!
