Xiao Mu felt an incredible sense of defeat. He had already unleashed five strikes, which was at no small cost to himself. And now, he had only enough strength to launch one last strike of the Nine Slashes of the Heavenly Demon.
However, at present, the fifth strike was still unable to get the job done. Would the sixth strike make any difference?
Previously he was defeated at the hands of Ye Futian. Now, facing the cultivators from the Lost Clan, he was not faring any better. This was totally different from what he had in mind. He came from the Devil World and a direct disciple of the Devil Emperor himself. His cultivation was so tremendous that he thought no one could compete across all major worlds.
But after coming to the Original Realm, he had tasted nothing but frustration. He was defeated right off the bat in the first battle by Ye Futian, who was an entire realm lower than him.
In both battles that he had participated in after arriving in the Original Realm, Xiao Mu seemed to realize just how big the world really was and how many outstanding figures there were in the world. The Lost Clan that appeared during the changes taking place in the Original Realm was a good example; none of their cultivators were any less when battling the top figures in this world.
Above the firmament, the nine powerful cultivators from the Lost Clan put their hands together. A divine light bloomed at their brow chakras, turning into thousands of divine shadows. It was as if they were the ancient gods who were as solid as a rock. They had transformed their incomparably resilient Spiritual Will in combination with the bodies of the Great Path and forged this body of the ancient god.
The bodies of many ancient gods resonated and merged into one, turning this space into a rock domain, like a domain belonging to the deities. It was as indestructible as the will of the Lost Clan.
Ye Futian was not the only one who felt the immensity of that power. Even others realized that those nine cultivators, who were as strong as Xiao Mu, still couldn’t break down defenses such as this one. The cultivators from the Lost Clan were experts at constructing defense, so much so that this defensive force could not be destroyed at all.
Even the nine cultivators on the battlefield realized it themselves. Even so, they didn’t give up. The Great Path on their bodies roared as an extraordinary power burst forth. Xiao Mu, likewise, unleashed the sixth strike in the Nine Slashes of the Heavenly Demon in concert with the rest of the cultivators. The attack this time was several times stronger than the previous ones.
When the attack landed, the divine shadows that had filled the heaven shook violently, and some of them were shattered. Obviously, this extremely powerful attack could shake up the Battle Matrix of the Rocks to some extent. However, the outcome remained the same. The shapes of those nine cultivators from the Lost Clan were shaken a bit but remained as unmoving as a rock. Their physical bodies and Spiritual Will were integrated and were in perfect harmony with heaven and earth. Their Spiritual Will was as firm as a rock, and their physical bodies were deeply rooted in the earth. This was the true essence of the Battle Matrix of the Rocks; it was as the ancestors had intended when they created it. This was the only way that Shenyi Continent could be protected despite the darkness and continue its survival in the world.
As Ye Futian observed this power from the Battle Matrix of the Rocks, he could clearly perceive the firmness of the will from these cultivators. He could see how the cultivators from the Lost Clan were able to survive these countless years, wandering through the dark world on the Shenyi Continent. They had turned their own bodies into rock to protect the continent from destruction.
At this moment, there was more credence in what the cultivator from the Lost Clan had told them. This was certainly a clan worthy of great respect and friendship and definitely not as an enemy.
“Excellent.” Cultivators such as Emperor Nan and the others also realized this and let out an emotional remark. How determined were they need to be to shuttle through these endless years in the darkness like this? They had forged rocks out of flesh and blood to protect the Shenyi Continent.
This could not be achieved without a certain degree of conviction.

It was precisely on account of their steadfast belief that they were able to explode with such terrifying combative power. Even the one as great as Xiao Mu, the Devil Emperor’s own direct disciple, had no way of defeating them. Their spirit was simply awe-inspiring.
On the battlefield, Xiao Mu and the other nine cultivators were discouraged and frustrated. They knew they had been defeated, and it was impossible to break this defense. It was not just a matter of Xiao Mu and the others; the result would be the same with another set of nine cultivators. Perhaps if there were nine people at the same level as Xiao Mu, they might have a chance to destroy the Battle Matrix of the Rocks. But how strong of a force would be required then?
“Everyone, please exit.” The Battle Matrix of the Rocks opened up and a passageway appeared, allowing Xiao Mu and his party to leave.
Both sides understood that the outcome couldn’t be clearer, so there was no point in continuing the fight.
“Impressive.” Xiao Mu’s eyes were pitch-black as he looked at the cultivator from the Lost Clan. He then exited the bounds of the Battle Matrix of the Rocks and returned to the camp that belonged to the Devil World. The other cultivators followed his lead and returned to camp with him, disturbed to their core.
“This battle was not your fault. Few would be able to break this battle matrix,” an elder from the Devil World said to Xiao Mu. Even though he was watching the battle from the sidelines, he could sense the power exuded from the Battle Matrix of the Rocks.
But it didn’t make Xiao Mu feel any better. Defeat was defeat; no amount of excuses could explain that away.
“It’s a great feat for you to be able to shake the Battle Matrix of the Rocks like this. The Battle Matrix of the Rocks forged by the nine of them requires the full eruption of their Spiritual Will and physical strength to the extreme to render the battle matrix indestructible. You have done very well already.” At this time, the old man from the Lost Clan spoke up, perhaps wanting to comfort them.
However, from his words, one could detect the Lost Clan’s strong faith in the Battle Matrix of the Rocks. The power of the Great Path integrated Spiritual Will and physical strength. The ultimate power that erupted from it was then used to form this unbreakable battle matrix.
For countless years, generations of cultivators from the Lost Clan had protected the Shenyi Continent by relying on superior defenses such as the Battle Matrix of the Rocks.
Furthermore, this was not yet the ultimate configuration in the Battle Matrix of the Rocks.
“Would there be anyone in the Renhuang Eighth Realm who wants to give it a try?” the old man from the Lost Clan asked as he surveyed the cultivators from all forces. At this moment, those whose cultivation was at the very top were impatient, as if they were all eager to see just how strong was this Battle Matrix of the Rocks and if they could destroy it.
“I’ll try.” At this moment, another cultivator came forward. This was someone from Divine Prefecture. When this man appeared, many cultivators from Divine Prefecture sat up and took notice. Obviously, many cultivators knew who the man was.
Clad in white, this man was stunningly handsome. Just standing there, he seemed to be one with the Great Path, emitting an air of celestial detachment.
After the Renhuang in white walked forward, he glanced at the nine cultivators from the Lost Clan and then at the cultivators from Divine Prefecture. Someone else walked out as if wanting to give it a try. However, the Renhuang in white saw him walked out and said instead, “If you want to try it, try in the next round.”
The Renhuang at the receiving end of this remark frowned. The man’s words were so impolite they were bordering on rude. However, the Renhuang in white didn’t seem to care at all. He looked at all the cultivators from Divine Prefecture and said, “The Lost Clan’s Battle Matrix of the Rocks is indestructible, but all the principalities of Divine Prefecture are here as well, so how can there be battle matrixes that cannot be broken? Therefore, I would like to invite some others from Divine Prefecture to break the Battle Matrix of the Rocks with me.”
His meaning couldn’t be clearer. He wanted to pick his allies, and that cultivator who had walked out was not considered suitable. In his opinion, the man was not worthy of fighting side by side with him!
