Chapter 898: Reflecting the Heavens, So What

All races were stunned. The woman in white, who had been standing silently with her back to the great abyss, suddenly made a move. She didn't attack Chu Feng, but instead directly snatched Mechanical Vajra's massive metal hand!

Who would dare to attack a Reflecting the Heavens-level expert? Mechanical Vajra was renowned throughout this universe, his fame having spread for countless years, yet now he had been snatched away in an instant!

This sight was terrifying. Her slender, pearly-white fingers were incredibly long and appeared perfect. They reached out from the abyss, overshadowing the heavens and earth, instantly suppressing everything.

"Ancestor!"

"Our immortal and indestructible Mechanical Vajra Ancestor!"

The Mechanical Race grew desperate, shouting themselves hoarse. But what good was it, even if they were present, let alone being deep within the universe?

"Hm!?"

Mechanical Vajra's true body opened its eyes in an ancient cosmic mine. Its metal body was covered in mottled rust, but at its heart, a piece of crimson metal glowed with a scorching red light, burning like a sun.

This was his greatest discovery: finding mother metal within this vast, floating cosmic ore vein. He absorbed its essence, integrating it into his heart, which provided him with terrifying energy and even healed many of his hidden soul injuries.

"You want to take one of my hands? It won't be that easy!"

He let out a low roar; he couldn't give up. The Mechanical Race was a unique life form, having gained sentience from metal, with their bodies growing and evolving by continuously absorbing metallic essence.

At his level, the metallic essence contained within a single hand was unimaginable. To reform a hand for a Reflecting the Heavens-level expert would require astronomical amounts of rare metals!

Boom!

Near the great abyss, another massive metal hand reached out, tearing through space. Distance meant nothing to the top-tier beings of this universe.

Even across star seas and brilliant starry skies, they could arrive instantly!

Within the great abyss, the woman raised her hand again. A delicate, jade-like hand emerged, blocking Mechanical Vajra's hand, which was larger than many planets combined, and exerted force!

"I have arrived!"

Across the universe, violent tremors and ceaseless fluctuations occurred.

In some brilliant evolutionary star systems, above the altars and spirit tablets of many evolved races, Mechanical Vajra's imposing figure materialized, suffocating all who saw it. He stood within a massive star, radiating immense power, his metallic sheen cold and his might pressuring the heavens!

What was known as "Reflecting the Heavens" was a respected concept among all races in the Netherworld Universe. The top hundred experts were enshrined on altars, revered by countless races.

Whenever they became angry, joyful, or unleashed their power, their forms would manifest on altars across the universe, thereby "reflecting" their presence everywhere.

"Heavens, Mechanical Vajra has revived! Among the hundred stars suspended above our race's altar, one has lit up, illuminating all directions with a rainbow-like aura, threatening to tear the sky apart!"

At this moment, not just near the great abyss, but even in the most remote regions of the universe's edge, evolvers exclaimed in shock, witnessing the emergence of a Reflecting the Heavens-level expert.

Outside the great abyss, Mechanical Vajra's true body arrived. Its eight fragmented parts rushed from various corners of the universe, assembling with its head in this dark region, forming a colossal, terrifying metal life form that could suppress star seas.

Its aura was like a cosmic sea breaking its banks, supreme energy surging forth. Outside the great abyss, one planet after another appeared minuscule compared to its body.

For instance, when it opened its eyes, its golden gaze outshone many stars, not just in luminosity but also in size and energy, far surpassing them.

Its entire body was primarily made of bright silver metal, adorned with azure metallic patterns, gleaming brilliantly and exuding a powerful, cold, and intimidating metallic presence.

However, everyone could see numerous mottled rust spots on its metal body. Some parts were truly decayed, an irreversible trend; time had forcefully taken its toll.

At this point, because the woman in white had stopped using her special breathing technique, and the rhythm had ceased, everyone could move again. They frantically contacted the outside world, activated super wormholes, and began a desperate escape spanning millions of miles.

Even Yellow Ox, Big Black Ox, and Old Donkey had fled, hiding inside the Demon Ancestor's Cauldron.

At the same time, some individuals couldn't escape in time. Though they weren't directly attacked, they exploded in large numbers throughout the area, turning into wisps of blood mist.

Some were experts at the Golden Body Great Perfection level, others were evolvers in the Shaping Realm. Yet, before Mechanical Vajra, they were so insignificant, like dust.

In essence, they were negligible, exploding from the sheer impact of his aura without even being directly attacked!

Many planetary remains floated outside the great abyss. Upon closer comparison, the horror was palpable: these stellar remnants were smaller than Mechanical Vajra's earlobes. This terrifying metal life-form was truly monstrous.

"Return!"

In fact, Mechanical Vajra had already acted upon arriving, secretly contending to reclaim his hand. He absolutely could not afford to lose a part of his body, or his aging process would accelerate, and his life force would wither.

Once all his fragmented parts were reassembled, he became supremely powerful, his Reflecting the Heavens-level aura sweeping across this part of the universe.

Chu Feng had already fled far away, yelling for "Through-Heaven Express" to teleport him outside the great abyss. However, he didn't go far, choosing to observe the battle from nearby.

He had a feeling that even with Mechanical Vajra's personal arrival, he wouldn't necessarily be able to forcibly reclaim his hand. It likely wouldn't change anything.

Indeed, with a clang, the delicate, unadorned hand shot up from the great abyss, striking Mechanical Vajra's other hand and sending it flying.

Sparks flew, illuminating the dark edge of the great abyss.

"Kill!"

Mechanical Vajra was shocked and enraged. His true body had arrived, yet he was still forced back. Moreover, he sensed the state of the hand that had been snatched: it was cracking and disintegrating... truly terrifying.

"Crack!"

A dazzling burst of light erupted, illuminating the central area of the great abyss. People saw the woman in white crushing the massive metal hand, extracting a small, bright silver metallic block from it. It was mother metal, rapidly shrinking as it settled into the woman's palm.

"Ah!"

Mechanical Vajra was furious. His hand had been destroyed, a massive loss, because it contained a piece of mother metal. This was also why he dared to only send out one hand—outsiders couldn't damage it.

But now, his hand was destroyed, and the mother metal was stolen!

"It's over, we've caused a huge disaster, we've entrapped our ancestor!" Within the Mechanical Race, all the metallic life-form evolvers trembled, their hearts chilled with dread, sensing that something terrible was about to happen.

"Who could have imagined that the great devil Chu Feng had this hidden card? Does he know the being within the great abyss?"

"Heavens, why? Isn't the great abyss supposed to be devoid of life, renowned as the Netherworld Universe's foremost forbidden zone? How did a woman suddenly emerge today and stand with Chu Feng?!"

Within the Mechanical Race, a storm raged. Everyone trembled as if the end of the world had arrived. Their momentary anger and agitation, which led them to summon their ancestor Mechanical Vajra, had instead harmed him. The soul and most powerful figure of their race would likely suffer greatly!

As expected, a shocking turn of events occurred.

As Mechanical Vajra roared, he also recoiled. Although he had been reckless earlier, he now understood everything. This woman in white was far more powerful than he had imagined, utterly beyond the capabilities of an old Vajra like him, whose body was half-rusted and decaying.

However, it was too late. The woman in white, like a flying immortal, surged out of the great abyss, accompanied by brilliant showers of light, heading straight for him.

Radiant light bloomed, as if an immortal was ascending from the great abyss, illuminating the eternal darkness.

The woman struck, sending a palm strike towards Mechanical Vajra that pierced through space, making the universe tremble!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Sparks flew, and terrifying energy erupted!

At this moment, the "Sky Eye" technology of the Black Blood Platform and Prime Beast Platform finally caught up, capturing the scene and shocking cultivators from all races across the universe.

This was mainly because Mechanical Vajra stood towering, his body immense, while the woman in white, employing the Dharma Idol of Heaven and Earth, also appeared exceptionally tall, casting her reflection across the cosmos.

Thus, even from a great distance, both figures could be captured.

Even so, precious Sky Eyes exploded, shattered into dust by the lingering shockwaves despite having the most powerful runic protective devices.

"Oh my god, what am I seeing? Mechanical Vajra's arm is deformed, and his chest is caved in!"

People were shocked to discover that Mechanical Vajra's body twisted as he resisted, his metallic form dented and deformed, rendered unrecognizable by that delicate jade-like hand.

Then, Mechanical Vajra shrank, his body continuously diminishing in height. He could no longer stand towering in the cosmos, suppressed and transforming towards the size of a normal person.

Yet, even then, he still reached a height of one hundred thousand zhang.

"Argh..."

Mechanical Vajra roared in fury, his body battered. The decayed parts were pierced by the delicate jade-like hand, bringing forth the unique lifeblood of the Mechanical Race, splattering blood across the starry sky.

"This is a Reflecting the Heavens-level expert, yet he was defeated so tragically, easily pierced through. It's too terrifying!" Evolvers everywhere were stunned.

Even Chu Feng was dumbfounded, finding it almost impossible to believe. The woman's strength was terrifyingly monstrous. Her slender back and crystalline long hair exuded beauty, yet her power defied the heavens!

To the regret of all races in the universe, the woman consistently kept her back to them, her true face unseen!

Furthermore, this was still near the great abyss, where various mysterious rays and strange mists heavily permeated the area, obscuring many of the images captured by the Sky Eyes, rendering them blurry.

"Ah..."

People heard a tragic roar of anger. Mechanical Vajra was struck through his body more than a dozen times by the pristine white hand, finally being dragged into the great abyss, letting out fearful and furious cries—his final wail.

"This is f***ing terrifying!" Not just others, but even that fellow Ouyang Feng himself was shrinking his neck and trembling his lips, completely out of character with his usual demeanor.

All of this happened in a flash. The battle abruptly ended, too swiftly for anyone to fully comprehend.

Within the great abyss, a bright light surged. This was because the woman in white's crystalline palm had split open Mechanical Vajra's body, extracting a piece of crimson mother metal—the rare treasure that was about to merge into Mechanical Vajra's heart—now her spoils of war.

Subsequently, Mechanical Vajra sank. His eyes were wide open but hollow, as he descended into the great abyss, never truly resting in peace. His final, decaying divine soul had been slain!

A Reflecting the Heavens-level expert had fallen, shaking the star sea!

In ancient times, he had been ruthless and arrogant, once attacking Yaoyao's father and dominating everything. Yet now, he had been beaten to death like this.

Just like that, everything ended so swiftly!
