Boom!

"Invisible Secondary Wave Slash!"

Chu Ming's white robe fluttered, his black hair stood on end, both hands wielded the Blood Dome Sword, muscles bulging, he slashed horizontally towards Emperor Luo, layers of space quickly stacking up, instantly reaching over a hundred and fifty layers!

Slash!

As the sword descended, the sky suddenly darkened, as if at the beginning of the world, countless grey streams surged wildly, inch-long rays fell, the void trembled!

Bang bang bang bang...

The golden fist shadows were cut inch by inch, but Emperor Luo behind them had a mocking look on his face, sneering coldly against the backdrop of golden light.

"Chu Ming, admit defeat, I draw strength from the earth, the spiritual power within me is endless, you cannot defeat me!"

Against the backdrop of golden light, Emperor Luo's eyes faintly showed a hint of arrogance.

"Is that so?"

Chu Ming asked calmly, his Blood Dome Sword still swinging continuously, with every strike, a golden fist seal was shattered, pale golden light flowing, dazzling to the extreme.

Boom!

Light flashed in Chu Ming's eyes, he suddenly let out a long roar, the Blood Dome Sword in his hand seemed like a terrifying blood-colored War Sword, his right hand muscles bulged, slashing out five terrifying sword auras in succession, tearing the sky within a kilometer, creating a black fissure in the sky, like a giant mouth wanting to devour the entire world.

"Burial Sword!"

Boom!

Five sword auras, each stronger than the last, when the fifth sword aura appeared, the entire sky suddenly darkened, all things lamenting!

Snap snap snap snap...

Like peeling silk from cocoons, the golden light was broken inch by inch, when the fifth sword aura descended, Emperor Luo was instantly blown away, the golden thread connecting him and the earth shattered directly, countless golden lights scattered in the sky.

Puff...

A mouthful of pale golden blood sprayed from Emperor Luo's mouth, his face pale, the wounds not only harming his body but also his soul.

Originally, he thought that relying on his fortuitous encounter, even if he couldn't crush Chu Ming, he could fight evenly with him. However, reality proved that he had overestimated himself and underestimated Chu Ming.

Slash!

The sound of a breaking wind echoed in his ears, he glanced up slightly, a blood-red sword aura had already reached before him!

Slash!

Before Emperor Luo could react, his body was directly sliced in half, turning into white light and disappearing in front of Chu Ming.

Whew!

The blood-red sword aura dissipated, a white-robed figure stood tall in this world, Chu Ming let out a gentle breath.

Immediately, he glanced at his ranking and found his score had reached 180,000, pushing Fire God Ning Lie down to fourth, with Fire God Ning Lie in fifth, and Emperor Luo dropping out of the top twenty.

...

In the southern part of the Celestial Extreme Illusion Realm, in a blood-colored swamp filled with insects, ants, and poisonous snakes, many geniuses fell here, directly dead with no chance of survival. At this moment, a fiery red figure was fiercely battling a terrifyingly large Demon Beast, the intense combat waves crazily stirring the wind waves, causing the earth to crack.

Boom!

Fire God Ning Lie's palm wind was like flames, his expression terrifying to the extreme, his body like a volcano ready to erupt at any moment, with a slight move, causing great damage to the terrifyingly large Demon Beast.

"Die!"

Boom!

A violent pale flame burst from Fire God Ning Lie's fist, passed through layers of space, and exploded directly on the terrifying giant Demon Beast, the contained violent force suddenly erupting!

Snap snap snap...

The ninth-level top tier Demon Beast was instantly torn to shreds, blood like rain falling to the ground, Fire God Ning Lie bathed in the blood, resembling a god of slaughter.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Fire God Ning Lie noticed a change in his ranking, his fiery red pupils shrank sharply, sneering coldly.

"Chu Ming? Interesting, let me test your strength!"

As Fire God Ning Lie's voice fell, his body lightly spread out, moving in the direction of the rough black arm, disappearing in an instant.

...

Outside.

At the moment Chu Ming defeated Emperor Luo, the entire Holy City was in an uproar. Although Chu Ming had defeated Immortal Changqing before, they were mentally prepared for him to defeat Emperor Luo, yet when it actually happened, it still brought great shock to their hearts.

"Tsk tsk tsk, throughout the Celestial Extreme Illusion Realm, Chu Ming should rank in the top four now?"

An Inner Palace Elder of the Great Freedom Palace sighed, commenting.

"Top four? That's wishful thinking, Ling Yun, Soroch, and Snow Demon Immortal occupy the top three. Whether it's Fire God Lie Ning or the enigmatic Wang Xue'Er, they all possess strength not weaker than Chu Ming. If he can rank sixth, that's already impressive."

Blood Cloud Palace Grand Elder Hu Jingyu sneered lightly, saying plainly, with a flash of killing intent in his eyes. Chu Ming had already formed a life-and-death feud with Blood Cloud Palace. If he truly grows in the future, it would be an existential threat to Blood Cloud Palace.

"Blame yourself for provoking Blood Cloud Palace!"

Blood Cloud Palace Grand Elder Hu Jingyu silently plotted Chu Ming's assassination in his heart. In the history of the Human Race, some dazzling geniuses were killed in their cradles for provoking powerful forces before fully growing, but no genius like Chu Ming had ever appeared.

...

In the Celestial Extreme Illusion Realm.

A figure drifted through the space, stopping abruptly in a blood-red valley.

Chu Ming walked out of the space, staring dazedly at the valley before him, his soul power surged, completely enveloping the valley.

The valley was small, with blood-red vegetation stretching for dozens of miles, Chu Ming's soul power could surround the entire valley.

"The secrets of slaughter here are ten times thicker than elsewhere!"

Chu Ming's mind was shocked. It is said that in the Life and Death Tower, various secrets are ten times thicker than other places in the outside world. Does this mean that understanding the secrets of slaughter in the valley can equal the effect of the Life and Death Tower?

"No!"

Chu Ming's mind calmed down, his soul power turned into a thin thread, sweeping across the valley, extending three hundred miles, then slowly stopping, reaching Chu Ming's limit.

Chu Ming raised his head towards the direction of the valley, his eyes gradually showing a hint of surprise.

"That's...the direction of the black arm?!"

Suddenly, for some reason, a thought flashed in Chu Ming's mind, indicating that this blood-red valley is closely linked with the black arm that appeared suddenly in the Celestial Extreme Illusion Realm.

"Forget it, let's find a place for a retreat first!"

Chu Ming's eyes brightened, silently contemplating. Turning into a sword light, he fell towards the blood-red valley.
