— Chapter 338 —

Yunlong stared at the new guy with a calm look on his face. He can gauge Tang Ming’s strength and identity with Neo’s help, but one thing confuses him. The “Sealed.” part of their status seemed to be abnormal.

Tang Ming is a middle-aged man in a white tunic. He was oddly similar to Tang Hao in appearance and physical stature, having a pair of muscular arms. This man was Clear Sky Clan’s Ancestor, which explained some things. And that weird-looking Clear Sky Hammer proved that point even more.

Yunlong couldn’t help but narrow his eyes at the weird-looking Clear Sky Hammer because it was over 3.5 meters long with a black handle messily covered by brownish leather and a cylinder hammer’s head that had a goldish shine. It was comical to see because the Clear Sky Hammer was taller than Tang Ming. Yet, he could swing it fast enough to attack him.

“Who are you?” Tang Ming asked while staring at Yunlong. His tone is rather cold yet full of confusion.

Yunlong smiled and replied, “I thought you knew me enough by watching the stale drama from that damned moon. Oh well, I can’t judge someone’s taste easily.”

Tang Ming was unhinged and released his strength, causing the whole area to tremble violently. A thick blackish-gold aura exploded from his body and swept over the 10km radius with extreme pressure.

“Oh, we are playing around with strength now?” Yunlong responded by releasing 10% of his Infinite Sword Ways. The dimensional fabrics around them abruptly surround them with a sharp yet gentle aura. And compared to Tang Ming’s pressure, Yunlong’s release of power could slice this alternative reality apart.

Contrary to the Primordial Sword Goddess’s thought, Yunlong noticed Infinite Sword Ways’ value more than she assumed because having his natural comprehension placed in the number one spot of the Omniversal Sword Order was such a huge hint.

The opposite powers clashed with each other and created a spiritual spark on the Douluo Continent, causing violent storms left and right. Yunlong glanced at the Dragon Cleaver and noticed a strong resentment toward Tang Ming.

“I see… It’s you.” He pointed Dragon Cleaver at the Universal Laws of this reality, especially Tang Ming. “You’re the one who messed with this place the most.”

Tang Ming finally frowned when hearing this statement from Yunlong and activated his ability to know one’s identity. His eyes glowed with blue light, but a backlash smacked him on the face immediately.

“Guh…” Tang Ming grasped his face and felt an intense sting in his mind. Something was protecting this man from his observation ability.

[Omniversal Cover was in effect]

“Sorry, but something like that doesn’t work on me.” A grin appeared on Yunlong’s face.

“We are in a different league, old man. You better use VPN next time.”

“What are you waiting for, Ming?! Use the damn Fate Canceller to kill that annoying ant!” Spirit Mimic yelled while brushing her clothes. She has recovered from her physical injuries, but the damage to her soul is beyond repair at this moment.

Tang Ming nodded in agreement and was about to summon this so-called Fate Canceller, but Yunlong obviously won’t let them do that. Only a fool and a battle-hungry idiot would allow an enemy to get power-ups.

“Not on my watch.” Yunlong stepped once and arrived before Tang Ming. Dragon Cleaver flew toward the middle-aged man’s neck, releasing a powerful sword echo that vibrated the air.

SWOOOSH!

Clank! BOOM!

Tang Man hurriedly lifted the Clear Sky Hammer’s handle and defended himself against Yunlong’s attack but failed to realize Infinite Sword Ways actually weren’t focused on the wielder’s weapon. It is one of the most “powerful.” Sword Paths in the entire Omniveral Order, allowing the user to slash through anything.

SLASH! BAM!

Yunlong added more force to his slash and sent Tang Ming flying into the sky. A wide scar spread over the middle-aged man’s chest, which caused corrupted black blood to come out. As the corrupted black blood sprayed all over the area, the ground suddenly moved and formed several somewhat humanoid creatures.

[Name: Corrupted Minions]

[Species: Impurities]

[Cultivation: Wild God/Level 110]

[Description: The “Corrupted Minions.” are horrifying creatures known as God’s Plague in the Divine War created by Tang Ming using his corrupted blood and the natural surrounding. They can clone themselves quickly and become an army of Outer Gods]

“Alpha.” Yunlong doesn’t have time for these minions.

Alpha dodged the Divine Chimera’s attack in the sky and shouted, “Are you blind, Master?! I’m busy here.”

Yunlong chuckled in loss and was “honestly.” left with no choice besides using his long-saved Death Knights. He hasn’t used this skill for a while because he is too focused on improving himself.

“Summon, Death Knights.”

A thousand pentagrams appeared on the ground around them and released intense dark light. Yunlong’s crimson left eye released a burning black flame as he watched his loyal army claw out of the muddy darkness.

Yunlong smiled because a familiar-looking death knight with a lion-like helmet bowed before him. “It’s been a while, Singa.” He commented while staring at the death knight.

“Yes, my lord,” Singa responded naturally.

“Please give this loyal knight an order.”

“That things. Burned them with my Amaterasu.” Yunlong pointed at the corrupted minions while enhancing the death knight with his spiritual energy and Amaterasu, giving them the ability to burn through everything.

“As you wish, my lord.” Singa’s blue flame eyes torched even more under the sunlight. He pulled out a greatsword from the shadow and walked toward the army with a death aura lingering in the air.

“Our lord has given an order, ATTACK!!”

ROAR!!

BOOM!

The two armies collided immediately, and the death knights trampled over corrupted minions. After Yunlong reached his current level, his summon also became stronger because their strength came from him.

“Nine Extreme Arts of the Eclipse Dragon.” Yunlong’s draconic blood boiled quickly and created energy circulation inside his body, increasing his base strength by several levels. “Devil Sin Trigger.”

He breathed in and pressed his chest acupoint, releasing the Nine Dragon Gates. “Seventh Gate: Death Flow.” He aligned the Dragon Cleaver with Tang Ming’s position.

BOOM!

Yunlong kicked the ground and arrived at the sky with dragon scales like armor covering his body. He powerfully swung the Dragon Cleaver at Tang Ming and slashed the dimension around them, creating spatial chaos.

SLASH! BAM!

Tang Ming parried this by using the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer and hoofed Yunlong in the sky, destroying the area with their attacks.

CLANK!

BOOM!

Yunlong kicked Tang Ming’s hammer away and created a gap between them. He pulled the Dragon Cleaver back and ignited the dragon blood into pure power in his lungs.

“ECLIPSE DRAGON ROAR!” He opened his mouth and engulfed the middle-aged man in a gray-colored shockwave. It caught Tang Ming off guard because he thought Yunlong’s mastery “merely.” was based on the sword alone.

RROOOAAARR!

BOOM!

Tang Ming couldn’t protect his body and “violently.” was blasted by Yunlong’s dragon-based attack, which was “extremely.” was powered by his Crimson Star of the Omniversal Order’s Title and Dragon Clan’s resentment toward the Universal Laws.

Yunlong actually was in the lead with a noticeable advantage because none of the Outer Gods knew about his existence as the Crimson Star of the Omniversal Order, the broken title for a fight like this.

Spirit Mimic suddenly appeared out of nowhere and sent a knife-like weapon at Yunlong’s chest. The corner of Yunlong’s Mangekyou Sharingan twitched a little when seeing the knife.

[Name: Fate Canceller]

[Type: Outer God’s Weapon]

[Description: A weapon imbued with Outer God’s Magic, which can change alternative reality’s destiny with a simple swing and rewrite anything like it doesn’t exist]

“DIE!!!” Spirit Mimic stabbed Yunlong in the chest.

STAB!

Spirit Mimic furiously stabbed Yunlong, but what came next surprised him. A series of bones covered Yunlong’s body like a barrier, preventing the knife from reaching him. And it’s not like that weapon could injure him. The clue is the “Alternative reality.” part of the description.

CLANK!

“HUH??!!”

“How unfortunate,” Yunlong commented while flowing Dragon Clan’s resentment toward the Dragon Cleaver. “Do you think I’m that easy to attack? I’ve seen something bigger than the two of you combined, and for reference, watch this closely…”

In the Omniversal Order, Saeko had a shocked look on her face when observing Yunlong’s fight. She placed the avocado juice in her hand on a table and grabbed the crystal ball immediately.h

“No way…” A disbelief look plastered all over her beautiful face.

“Yunlong… He copied my Sword Zero Universe!!”

Yunlong waved the Dragon Cleaver gently and released the sword intent from the Infinite Sword Ways to the air, expanding them into a small galaxy filled with sharp destruction. He stared at Spirit Mimic’s surprised Pikachu face and swung the saber at her.

“Erase…”

Tang Man watched the small galaxy of swords move toward his partner and erase everything like violent sea waves. A black-haired man with slitted crimson eyes stood above the “nearly.” destroyed Spirit Mimic. The outer god has lost a good chunk of her physical appearance and 99% of her soul.

“M-Monster…” Spirit Mimic trembled while getting her head pressed by Yunlong’s shoe.

Yunlong stabbed the Dragon Cleaver in her face and heard Neo’s notifications. And some of them surprised him.

[You have killed Spirit Mimic]

[Mortal Sin: Gluttony activated]

[Ding! Innate Skill, Mortal Sin: Gluttony reacted with Spirit Mimic’s nature and reached the requirement to advance even further]

[Evolution 100%]

[Do you want to evolve Mortal Sin: Gluttony?]

[Yes/No]

“Yes. Go Gluttony.” Yunlong felt the hunger in the depth of his soul become excited.

[Evolving…]

Tang Ming frowned and solemnly stared at Yunlong because he felt a change in this odd man. It was something that made his Outer God’s nature scream in fear for some reason. “This presence, what’s this primordial presence?” He muttered while grasping his Clear Sky Hammer.

[Mortal Sin: Gluttony squealed in excitement]

[Mortal Sin: Gluttony has devoured all skills that don’t help the host so far]

[Mortal Sin: Gluttony has devoured Outer God’s life source]

[Mortal Sin: Gluttony was evolving…]

[…]

[…]

[Innate Skill, Mortal Sin: Gluttony have evolved into…]

[Primordial Lord of Hunger and Gluttony, Beelzebub]
