My disciple's cultivation returns ten thousand times, so I have to be invincible.

In the blink of an eye, the black-clad priest was swallowed whole by Zhong Qing's face, which appeared on the surface of the Nine Heavens.

And then... that was it.

Such a being, comparable to a god or demon, vanished in an instant, without ever making a ripple.

The priest in green robes changed his expression.

"How can this be!"

Just now, they were in a state of near-fusion, and although they were shaken back, they still maintained a certain degree of connection. Therefore, it was possible to feel that the disappearance of the black-clad priest was as if a piece of them was missing.

"Zhong Qing is out?!"

Not to mention the priests, Ling Mu's expression turned even more unpleasant after seeing that face and regaining her senses. She even subconsciously took several steps back.

No matter how much they hate Zhong Qing, they want to kill him.

Upon actually seeing Zhong Qing's face, her first reaction was still to run away.

They originally thought Zhong Qing was trapped.

Now that he's out, who in this universe can stop him?

Fortunately, the priest in blue robes reacted quickly and his gaze sharpened.

"No, he didn't leave the Nine Heavens!"

"He's still in there!"

"only……"

Sensing Zhong Qing's aura at this moment, the green-robed priest's face darkened.

"He somehow managed to merge with the Nine Heavens!"

The moment the words fell, a cold and chilling smile appeared on Zhong Qing's face on the surface of the Nine Heavens.

"Still babbling on? I'm here to take you in!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a gigantic phantom hand, comparable in size to a star, appeared out of thin air, grabbed a priest who had no time to dodge, and dragged him toward the Ninth Heaven.

"help me!!"

This time, the priest had more opportunities to call for help.

But this does nothing but add to the despair.

The priest in green robes and the others immediately tried to disperse the giant phantom hand, but no matter how hard they attacked, they could not budge the giant hand in the slightest.

He could only watch helplessly as his companion was dragged into the Ninth Heaven, and with a low roar, his aura vanished completely.

The blue-robed priest's gaze had turned completely gloomy.

He knew this was just an illusion; the Nine Heavens had been completely sealed off, and the priest could not have been dragged into the Nine Heavens. So, he was actually obliterated on the surface of the Nine Heavens.

"Scatter! Don't approach the Nine Heavens!"

The gray-robed priest gave a low shout, and the priests reacted, scattering and fleeing in the direction away from the Nine Heavens.

Ling Mu's expression changed drastically, and she turned and ran away without saying a word.

These priests ran faster than anyone else, and in the blink of an eye they had escaped to hundreds of billions of miles away. Ling Mu, on the other hand, was the slowest to react. At the same time, being watched by the Ninth Heaven and facing the Qiankun Wheel, she became the most conspicuous one.

Moreover, compared to the priests who are good at hiding their presence and always keep a low profile,

The aura of the spirits is as flamboyant as can be.

This is usually how divine power is displayed.

At this point...

With such an eye-catching bag, who else would they arrest if not you?

So Ling Mu, who was a step slower to react, felt herself being bound by an immense force the instant she turned around, and was dragged involuntarily toward the Ninth Heaven.

"Let me go!"

Ling Mu roared and unleashed all her strength in an attempt to break free.

And within that roar, there was even a hint of fear.

Many people, including the spirits themselves, once thought so.

They are beings without emotions.

Now it seems that this may not be absolute.

At least, they had more feelings than the priests.

Take Ling Mu, for example, who is currently struggling to break free of her restraints despite her best efforts.

She was really scared.

"He's gotten stronger than he was 30,000 years ago? How is that possible?!"

If he were a human, Ling Mu's current state could only be described as utterly devastated.

She is not the same person she was 30,000 years ago.

The spiritual god's improvement after completing the transformation is not just a little bit.

In the battle to conquer the gods 30,000 years ago, although Zhong Qing was equally powerful, his ability to suppress the transformed spirit gods was far from reaching this level.

It can be easily manipulated from a distance.

This is incredible.

As the saying goes, it's extremely difficult to take another step forward from a hundred-foot pole.

At Zhong Qing's level, a mere 30,000 years shouldn't even be considered a nap, let alone the fact that he just returned after being expelled from the universe. How could he possibly have become stronger again?

As the Ninth Heaven drew ever closer, Ling Mu's eyes widened, and a clear look of fear appeared in her silver-gray pupils.

She knew she couldn't enter the Ninth Heaven, so she could only be obliterated on the surface of the Ninth Heaven, just like the previous priest.

Sure enough, in the next instant, Ling Mu's body shattered on the surface of the Nine Heavens.

But in the next instant, the countless fragments began to recombine, transforming once again into Ling Mu's terrified expression.

"I...I'm not dead?"

Ling Mu cried out in alarm.

But she quickly realized what was happening.

"Yes, we have the future immortality."

So afraid that he forgot he was immortal.

Although Zhong Qing's attack was powerful, it was merely powerful and did not interfere with the power of the River of Time, so it was not really a threat to Ling Mu.

However, Ling Mu had just breathed a sigh of relief when she raised it again.

What she hadn't forgotten was that Zhong Qing possessed the means to kill a future immortal spirit god.

Sure enough, the next moment, a force struck again, pressing her firmly against the surface of the Nine Heavens and shattering her once more.

At the same time, Zhong Qing's laughter rang out again.

"After so long, I've almost forgotten what it feels like to fight your spirit gods."

"I really miss those days."

The next moment, Ling Mu opened her eyes again, her face filled with terror as she revived.

"I'm dead... No, I'm not dead yet, what's going on?"

Then, Zhong Qing's voice was heard, clicking his tongue in regret.

"Tsk, it seems that interfering with Shihe will be a bit difficult in this situation."

After surviving being killed twice, Ling Mu finally came to her senses.

"They didn't kill me... I see..."

"His true form is still within the Ninth Heaven."

She is not facing Zhong Qing directly now.

Zhong Qing was still trapped in the Ninth Heaven, but somehow managed to merge his power with the Ninth Heaven, allowing it to manifest on the surface.

Beyond the surface-level control over the spirits and the priests, there is actually another layer of time and space limitation.

With two layers of spacetime isolation restrictions, even someone as powerful as Zhong Qing would find it difficult to interfere with spacetime again and kill the future true form of the spirit god.

After all, he hasn't truly reached perfection yet.

Once Ling Mu came to her senses, she understood this and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He then let out a cold laugh.

"Zhong Qing, so what if you're back? You still can't kill me."

Zhong Qing's voice came out, tinged with a hint of a smile.

"I can't kill you, so what are you so smug about?"

"Are you sure you can leave?"
