The devil descended from the sky, and his fists suppressed the mountains and rivers

Chapter 346 The Four Leaders' Profound Skills Are Truly Exceptional (Part 2)
Durand's expression was solemn. He knew that many of his previous opponents had been manipulated by him until their deaths, but Yi Beidou was clearly an exception.

Yi Beidou's guess was not wrong in general. Durand did not have the power to truly affect reality. If Yi Beidou had cut his arm just now, he could have used the power of "rewind" to heal Yi Beidou's wound, but the bloodstains would not disappear with the rewind. Therefore, he did not let Yi Beidou complete the action.

But what Durand didn't expect was that such a simple action allowed Yi Beidou to see through the true nature of his abilities.

This young man is not just powerful; his understanding of supernatural abilities and cultivation is beyond imagination.

"Then please, Mr. Yi, try to get closer to me."

Instead of directly answering Yi Beidou's question, Duland continued to speak with a smile.

Boom!

The next moment, demonic flames burst forth from Yi Beidou's body, jade power entangled around him, his life magnetic field surged and reversed, and the shape of a blazing throne condensed behind him.

The raging demonic flames surged upwards, seemingly unstoppable even by steel, gradually spreading across the ceiling of the basement.

That domineering aura put immense pressure on many of the deities.

Snap! !
With the combined help of the demonic flames and the power of the jade, Yi Beidou successfully broke through the blockade of Durand's faint power and took a step forward.

Just as he was about to charge at Durand, Durand pulled his hand out of his pocket, and Yi Beidou saw clearly the item he was holding in his palm.

It was an exquisite pocket watch.

At that moment, the pocket watch was trembling slightly, emitting a dazzling light. Then, it suddenly transformed into a stream of light, creating a luminous watch face behind Durand's head.

The hour, minute, and second hands all spun erratically, like a malfunctioning compass.

"Spiritual treasure?"

Yi Beidou narrowed his eyes slightly. The behavior of Durand's pocket watch clearly indicated that it could not be a real object. The only explanation was that it was a magical artifact that he had seen before.

However, compared to spiritual treasures, its nature seems to be quite different. After all, spiritual treasures are independent magnetic field entities, and even if they are extremely compatible with the user, there is still an undeniable sense of separation and independence.

This is something that cannot be changed even if it is refined into a natal spiritual treasure.

It should be noted that although Yi Beidou was unaware of the existence of natal spiritual treasures, he had experienced the power of the Three Yin Goddess's Soul-Capturing Bell in the long river of humanity.

Even the Soul-Capturing Bell of the Three Yin Goddess cannot compare to the compatibility between its magnetic field and that of the host's pocket watch in front of Durand.

This distinction is like the difference between a sword that has been blessed with blood and recognized its master, and a third hand that grows from the human body.

It's almost as if a portion of one's own life magnetic field was separated and forged into this magical treasure.

In fact, this is the strength of the "Celestial Realm" of the Investiture of the Gods lineage to which Durand belongs.

Their understanding of the human body's life magnetic field has reached an unbelievable level. This magical pocket watch was created from Durand's own life magnetic field.

The life magnetic field is closely related to various vital signs in the human body and cannot be easily changed. For ordinary people, a slight imbalance in their life magnetic field can lead to serious illness or even sudden death. Even for experts at the Saint Realm, damage to the life magnetic field is considered one of the most severe injuries.

Yi Beidou developed the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Secret Technique simply by reversing the life magnetic field. However, even when this technique is used to its fullest extent, it still carries the risk of exploding and dying, not to mention the possibility of transforming the life magnetic field into a special state completely different from the life form.

This is the "Refining God Technique," a secret technique passed down in the Celestial Realm, which uses one's own life magnetic field to create a natal artifact similar to a spiritual treasure.

It is precisely because of the perfect compatibility forged by its own magnetic field that it can achieve near-perfect control over the artifact, giving this natal artifact an incredible magnetic field influence.

The fact that Durand was able to use the power of the pocket watch to influence so many people at once, even affecting Yi Beidou's life magnetic field without being detected, shows just how terrifying it was.

“Confusion!”

Just as Yi Beidou was about to take a step and exert his strength, Durand shouted and the watch face behind his head shone brightly.

In an instant, Yi Beidou felt that he had lost control of his body. His limbs, torso, and consciousness were in different states, as if the time of his entire body had been disrupted. He could barely maintain his balance and was waving his arms and legs in a comical manner, almost losing his balance and falling to the ground.

Is it actually 'recording' and 'adjusting'?

Faced with this situation, Yi Beidou remained completely calm. After realizing that it was an influence on the life magnetic field, he was able to sense even more.

The pocket watch records the life magnetic field state of all living beings at various times within a certain range. By "adjusting" the life magnetic field of a living being, it can be made to revert to a previously recorded state, thus achieving an effect similar to "time reversal".

Disrupting the order of these records and adjustments creates an effect similar to "time distortion".

"This magnetic field influence is truly unbelievable. Even the combined power of jade and demonic flames cannot resist it?"

"It seems that the only way to break free from his control is by creating a life magnetic field form that exceeds the limits he can record and adjust."

Yi Beidou thought to himself.

This is no problem for him.

boom! !

In an instant, the life magnetic field within his body underwent a tremendous change. The perfect state was abruptly lifted, and the reversed life magnetic field instantly returned to normal. Moreover, at the moment of returning to normal, Yi Beidou once again activated the Heavenly Demon Disintegration state.

The several shifts in the life magnetic field were almost extreme operations. If Yi Beidou hadn't mobilized the power of the jade to protect his body, even he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand such instantaneous changes.

这 是
Durand's pupils contracted, and the dial behind his head trembled slightly. At this moment, the change in the magnetic field within Yi Beidou's body exceeded the recording limit of the artifact he possessed.

The veins on his forehead bulged and blood flowed from his nostrils. Even with the artifact activated to its maximum power, he still couldn't regain control of Yi Beidou's life magnetic field.

Unless he's willing to take that final step.

This guy's actions are practically suicide!

No, Yi Beidou didn't die. Instead, he used this sudden burst of energy to completely break free from his restraints.

A towering shadow hurtled toward him at an alarming speed, and a deluge of demonic flames engulfed his body.

What an amazing young man.

Durand gave a wry smile. He had other methods to evade Yi Beidou's attacks, but he didn't use them.

The pocket watch's function is not just to influence enemies; it can also be used on the user to "accelerate time," greatly enhancing their reaction time and speed.

But that's meaningless now. This isn't a life-or-death battle. At this point in the exchange, he has already lost and there's no need to struggle anymore.

Durand stood there, and saw a finger looming in front of him, seemingly about to touch his forehead. But seeing that he seemed to have given up resisting, the person withdrew their strength and changed their technique. Instead of touching Durand's forehead, they placed their palm on his shoulder.

In this way, the situation seemed to become a little more pleasant.

"Accepted."

Yi Beidou said calmly, took a step, and flashed back to his original position.

He was enveloped in the power of jade, his body as smooth as crystal. The injuries caused by the reversed magnetic field were suppressed by his body, which was reinforced by the power of jade, and were rapidly healing. The assembled deities fell silent upon seeing this.

"It seems that times have really changed."

Durand shook his head and sighed.

Then, the gentlemanly old man turned to the giant man and the beautiful woman and said, "Gentlemen, are you still interested in making a move?"

After testing with Dieter, it became clear that without using their final trump card, none of the five of them could restrain Yi Beidou. It would probably take at least two or even three people working together to have any chance of suppressing him.

In other words, such one-on-one sparring and probing is now meaningless.

"Then let me conclude this exchange. I'd like to test just how far Mr. Yi's jade-like power can go."

Just then, the beautiful and smiling woman came out and stood opposite Yi Beidou.

"Nina, you..."

Durand frowned slightly as he communicated telepathically with the beautiful woman.

"Neither you nor I can truly master 'immortal power,' which may be an opportunity for me. Our Mysterious Palace specializes in studying all the secret powers in the world. If we can break down its power into 'chaos,' perhaps I can further understand its principles."

“It has been a long time since ‘fairy power’ has appeared in this world.”

Nina replied via message.

"You want to open the Gate to the Ancestral Realm?"

Durand replied in a deep voice.

"Times are progressing, and we need to progress too, don't we?"

Nina said.

Durand remained silent for a moment.

“Mr. Yi, you’d better be careful from now on. Even I would have a hard time controlling the power of this move.”

Nina said in a deep voice.

hum! !

The next moment, intricate seven-colored patterns appeared on her body. These patterns seemed to materialize and spread outwards from Nina's body into the surrounding void, like vines and spider webs.

Yi Beidou's eyes burned with demonic flames, seeing through the essence and discovering that Nina's secrets were not limited to this.

Her blood vessels, bones, nervous system, and life magnetic field had all undergone some kind of supernatural transformation, forming a complex array. This array, when activated by her will, released its power and connected with the surrounding natural magnetic field, acting like a lever to pry open even greater forces.

The Mysterious Palace, one of the Five Families of the Investiture of the Gods, cultivates all kinds of secret powers in the world and controls them with array formations and supernatural abilities.

Boom! !
The entire surrounding space seemed to be shaking violently, and the terrifying magnetic field fluctuations generated immense pressure, causing the colors of everything to become blurred.

However, Nina did not use this power to attack Yi Beidou. In fact, the real purpose of this power was to open a "door".

"Everyone, stand back!"

Durand gave a low shout. In fact, Durand didn't need to say anything more. All the gods had already changed their expressions and retreated, leaving a large space between Yi Beidou and Nina.

They sensed a trace of the "ancestral realm".

The Ancestral Realm is the most important place of inheritance for those who have been granted godhood, and it is also the most mysterious void realm in the world. All the positions attained by those who have been granted godhood come from the Ancestral Realm. At the same time, the Ancestral Realm possesses a powerful force that is beyond the imagination of all living beings.

Even the gods themselves could not understand the true mysteries of the Ancestral Realm. Even the most supreme slumbering beings could perish if they rashly colluded with the Ancestral Realm.

That place could be described as a forbidden zone.

What kind of supernatural power did the leader of the Mystic Palace use?
Yi Beidou vaguely saw a door appear in the great formation that Nina had constructed, and slowly pushed it open a crack.

hum! !

A dazzling seven-colored light shone through the crack in the door and shone on Yi Beidou.

In an instant, Yi Beidou felt as if everything in his body was collapsing. His flesh, spirit, and magnetic field all seemed to be kneaded into a ball, losing all their characteristics and turning into one.

Boom!

The demonic flames burned, and the power of the jade spread, beginning to resist the seven-colored divine light, allowing Yi Beidou's condition to stabilize.

"What exactly is behind that door? There's a familiar aura about it, the same feeling I had when I sparred with Long Yichen last time?"

Yi Beidou recalled the scene when he used his Heavenly Demon Sensation to follow the hollow inside Long Yichen's body, trying to find out the truth behind the God-Sealing.

Compared to that time, the aura behind that door this time was more specific and clear.

"The secret behind the consecration of gods? Perhaps this is an opportunity to find out. Let me see what is hidden behind that door."

A glint flashed in Yi Beidou's eyes, and in an instant, he raised all his skills to their peak.

In his perfect state, possessed by a calamity star, imbued with the power of jade, and with demonic flames forming a throne behind him.
The demonic flames, a mixture of blue and red, split into countless fiery tails, stubbornly resisting the power of the seven-colored divine light that merged with all things, and suddenly surged towards Nina.

It actually withstood the chaotic seven-colored light?!
Nina's pupils contracted as she prepared to use her abilities to resist Yi Beidou's attack, but the result left her quite astonished.

The flame-tailed threads were not targeting her, but rather the door that had opened in the array behind her.

In an instant, Nina felt her scalp tingle and the hairs on her body stand on end. She was even more panicked than when Yi Beidou attacked her.

"No!! You'll die!!"

Nina screamed and tried to stop them immediately, but it was too late.

Yi Beidou's fiery tail tentacles had already wrapped around the illusory door in the void with lightning speed, and extended into the world behind the door from the crack in the door.

Wow! !

This scene caused an uproar not only for Nina, but also for many other deities, and the other four leaders looked extremely grim.

They never imagined things would develop to this point.

Common knowledge among those who are conferred the title of God: those who dare to enter the ancestral realm without authorization.

Desperate!
