The entire space-time cracked inch by inch. The defense of this Tenth-Order Ultimate being was astonishingly formidable. Although she was not skilled in close combat, her defense, stemming from a single Grand Dao Iron-Base bloodline, was incredibly tough, comparable to the combined defensive power of Xu Zhi's multiple bloodlines. Only when Xu Zhi truly approached her main body did he realize that their defensive capabilities were on par. She couldn't hurt his sleeping self, and conversely, he couldn't hurt her either! After all, neither side possessed powerful offensive bloodlines. Furthermore, none of Xu Zhi's five genetic bloodlines were offensive; they were all primarily defensive. The bizarre and strange species evolved by the players lacked any direct destructive combat ability, making Xu Zhi's eyelids twitch.
"I, too, find myself somewhat unable to truly harm you!" The Emperor's face was stern. He swung his fists like a coiled dragon and crouching tiger, violently pressing her head into the void, grinding it until her features were unrecognizable, eyes and nose mashed together. Yet, like a resilient mollusk, her head quickly regenerated. To Xu Zhi, this was indeed a country bumpkin. For a long-range mage to integrate such a defensive melee bloodline, simply to endure blows, and to be so tough – a tanky mage was truly out of place. Bang, bang, bang! The Nine-Headed Ancient Mother's head was pressed into the void and pounded relentlessly, like mashing sticky rice cakes. She was utterly bewildered, dizzy and disoriented, her whole being stunned.
How could such a person exist in this world?? She was originally an extremely proud and discerning woman of unparalleled beauty. Countless Ultimate beings in the universe had once pursued her, only to be coldly rejected. She bore the heavy responsibility of revitalizing her gradually thinning clan bloodline. No matter how powerful the opponent's bloodline was, if it didn't match, she couldn't be bothered. She even valued appearance highly; if a creature wasn't humanoid, she wouldn't even glance at it. After all, living with a monster was simply not something her proud and arrogant heart would consider.
Yet now, she, the dignified Nine-Headed Ancient Mother, a great supreme being who overlooked all life in the universe, whom countless ancient taboos had sought to curry favor with, had for the first time ever actively offered to humble herself, marry him, and become his Dao companion. And he was beating her violently in the void?? Her opponent was just a common Tenth-Order offspring! For Tenth-Order Ultimate beings, when they had nothing to do, as long as they were willing to pay the price, offspring were abundant, weren't they? Over the long ages, she had seen countless numbers, as numerous as ants, everywhere! Perhaps, to the outside world, they were rare, a precious legend. But for beings of their true level, they were simply commonplace. When she visited other ancient Daoist friends, their Tenth-Order offspring would stand obediently on either side, serving as attendants or servants. During conversations, they wouldn't even dare to look at her while pouring tea or serving water, fearing they might anger her.
Yet now, an ordinary Tenth-Order offspring, a weakling of the "tea-serving" level, who possessed no Grand Dao bloodline, was being offered marriage by her, a supreme ancient overlord with three Grand Dao bloodlines! It was utterly incredible, like a dream. And her opponent actually refused? Looking as if he disdained her? She was completely dumbfounded. All the bizarre events that had happened before had already overturned her worldview and repeatedly shattered her confidence. Now, with this latest incident, she had swallowed her pride and humbling herself as a woman to offer marriage, only to be beaten like this, grabbed by the hair and slammed onto the ground – her mental state completely collapsed!
Indeed, against such close-range attacks, she was utterly defenseless. But she quickly recovered and tried to reason with him, muttering, "I'm telling the truth about the Grand Dao Covenant. We are both Ultimates who have merged with the Dao, and we can sense the profound cosmic rules. How could I possibly deceive you? If I were to deceive you, our consciousness, which is already gradually being assimilated by the Grand Dao and losing its self, would be eroded even faster. That means death." She thought her opponent knew nothing about the Grand Dao Covenant. The Grand Dao originally had no rules or covenants. The entire universe was initially incomplete and rudimentary, with only its main trunk. But with the laws and perfections established by ancient existences, filling in the branches of the universe's rules, there naturally emerged ancient heaven-defying beings of great vows, indescribable ancient taboos, who chose to merge with the Dao. They completed the Grand Dao's contractual rules, leading to the mysterious emergence of Dao Covenants that bind Tenth-Order Ultimates, thereby establishing order. Thus, the entire cosmic order wouldn't fall into chaos because of these Ultimate Grand Dao existences.
"A mere country peasant wants to marry me and forge a connection? What else could it be but taking advantage of me?" The Emperor's face was icy. He saw through her insidious plot at a glance, and straddling her, he relentlessly pounded her head with his fists. "You want to live, take advantage of me, and scheme for my bloodline! You want to take all three advantages!" "I..." Her mind was blank. *She* was taking advantage? Her opponent was a Tenth-Order being with no Grand Dao bloodline. If he hadn't restrained her, he might not even have been able to defeat the Stone Man Disc...
A punch. Another punch. The Emperor, with the spirit of Wu Song fighting a tiger, pressed her to the ground and pounded her like sticky rice cakes. But her incredibly tough body still had extremely strong defenses. Though he was exhausted from punching, she was merely a gooey mass of flesh rapidly regenerating. The life force of the Iron-Base race, after achieving a Grand Dao bloodline, made Xu Zhi's scalp tingle with how tough it was. Although the battle was fierce, it had reached a stalemate. Both were monsters with extremely high defense and lacked strong offensive capabilities; neither could wear the other down to death. Xu Zhi didn't dare to curse her at the moment, as once he fell asleep, she might truly seize the opportunity to escape. But it wasn't true that there was no possibility of killing her! Xu Zhi had the Bug Race's Great Annihilation energy, which constantly replenished him, so his stamina was definitely more abundant than hers. He would simply wear her down to death! What good was even stronger defense? It all relied on stamina. The Nine Revolutions Profound Art depended on stamina; without it, it was useless. As long as her opponent had no strength left to recover stamina, this Nine-Headed Ancient Mother would truly be beaten to death!
The entire space-galaxy was shattered. There was no sound; all molecules and atoms were disintegrating. The Nine-Headed Ancient Mother's aura began to weaken significantly. This signaled that the prolonged, intense combat had finally pushed her to the edge of her energy reserves. A large portion of her Grand Dao cells were now depleted of stored energy, showing signs of exhaustion. Her expression grew listless, her regeneration slowed considerably, and her wounds gradually accumulated. "I... I can't go on like this..." At this moment, Melville completely felt her body's profound weakness. Death was imminent. A mournful wail emanated from her entire being, and the strong premonition of death stimulated every nerve, every cell. The terror of death made her feel incredibly weak, trembling, and despairing—emotions she had once experienced as a mortal surged forth. For her, the more powerful she became, the more she feared death.
"I... I can only use *that* move... I need to survive this first, then I can think about how to live on..." Her face was pale, a flicker of struggle crossing it. From within her starry gown, she slowly pulled out an embroidery needle, and flicked it gently. "Spatial Ruler Flick." The next second, a spring-like path, as if made of countless crumpled spaces, unfolded instantly. A waterfall-like curtain, resembling a galaxy-screen, unfurled between the Emperor and her, growing larger and larger, seemingly covering the entire sky, pulling the distance between them further and further apart. It was as if this single needle, transformed into a ruler, could separate them to the ends of the world.
"In the end, she still escaped." Xu Zhi glanced sideways, his hands clasped behind his back, making no move to pursue. This scene was too sudden; he couldn't react in time, nor could he stop it. Her spatial maze was already a difficult problem he couldn't handle. At this moment, he already felt an unimaginable distance, unable to pinpoint her spatial coordinates. His victory of the weak over the strong—a weak Tenth-Order fighting against three Grand Dao bloodlines—was already an astonishing miracle, rare in the universe throughout history. This was a confluence of perfect timing, geographical advantage, and human harmony, all crucial factors. The two ancient relic bloodlines he had previously acquired were key to his victory. The power he displayed in this battle against her arrival was almost impossible to replicate! All credit belonged to the two great civilizations: the Ancient Cosmic Garden and the Elemental Ruins.
"However, an old-school Ultimate like her, who has lived for an unknown duration, still possesses powerful last-resort life-saving abilities. Even though I attempted with hope, it ultimately ended in failure." Xu Zhi stood in the starry void. Bathed in the light of a sun, he gazed up at the firmament, the golden radiance reflecting on his handsome face, emanating an ineffable sense of ancient holiness. But he hadn't imagined he would ultimately reach this point, becoming so powerful.
