Chapter 1256 1250: Mortal Rejection
Wei Wuyin's patience had run out!
His single step forward elicited a heavy, irresistible shift in the void that could be felt within one's bones, blood, and soul. It was casual yet unprecedented, like the first step of a true Monarch on a grand stage, as natural and unfathomable as their very existence. As his body moved, as if linked to his thoughts, will, and innermost desires, Baby Defiant's solar light intensified yet again.
This was Wei Wuyin's first time testing the World-Bound Star Domain's true power in a combat situation, and he was deeply engrossed in the profoundness of its power! While in the Neo-Dawn Starfield, within the range of Baby Defiant's radiance, he felt as if his Worldly Domain was fully evoked!
There was a taste of indescribable control and monstrous power at the tip of his tongue, thoroughly intoxicating and unbelievably addictive. The urge to act had been suppressed by sheer curiosity and caution, but since the Moonfall Lunar Queen decided to remain silent and uncooperative, there was no need to hold back.
"...!" The beautiful invader was thunderstruck by the sealing of the three dimensional layers of space—Fixed Space, Stable Space, and Chaotic Space—unable to fathom why her greater Spatial Art had been canceled. Not even the typical Starfield-wide Array could halt her escape. She kept trying, causing continuous bursts of silvery and multicolored lights from her body.
When the multicolored lights appeared, this was no longer simply the execution of greater Spatial Arts but deeply profound Spatial Arts that replicated Stellar Transit Light! To produce this form of power, she was exhausting her lifeforce!
"!!!" The Moonfall Lunar Queen was immersed in her numerous mental setbacks as the futility of her efforts dawned on her. After failure upon failure, her violet-colored eyes violently darted to Baby Defiant, the existence responsible for her sealing, and she realized that this Solar Star was far, far more terrifying than she initially assumed.
Unfortunately, it was too late!
A cold chill abruptly coursed through her spine, reaching into the depths of her bones, slithering into her Sea of Consciousness, and her instincts flared violently as a sensation of deadly crisis crashed against her soul! Reflexively, she conjured a Mystic Ward! This ward was the combination of her Mystic Power and Lunar Spatial Energy, the resulting power of her Lunar Spatial Mystic Soul!
The beautiful silvery light of Lunar Power constructed a durable defense with the bulk of her strength. Despite its sudden creation, it was exceptionally sturdy and sufficient to defend against any ordinary Earthly Saint's attack! It was clearly a well-executed Spiritual Art that focused on defense.
"Oh?" Wei Wuyin emerged directly behind the Moonfall Lunar Queen without any prior warning or indication within the void. It was clear that even the Moonfall Lunar Queen hadn't noticed his arrival! And while she was unaware of his presence, she had formed a protective defense against him.
The survival instincts of an Earthly Saint could not be underestimated! Despite his Environmental Integration Art—Void-Origin Unity Art, he had been unable to effectively launch a killing blow! Yet when he had executed this art three times before, delivering three precise and crisp slaps, she had been completely unable to react!
Within a single blink of a mortal's eye, he had already considered three different angles to avoid those instinctive senses. Eventually, the Moonfall Lunar Queen located Wei Wuyin as she spun swiftly, her eyes honed onto his figure with startled surprise painted on her expression.
She retreated!
While doing so, she launched into a series of hand-seals as she prepared an attack. Since she couldn't escape through Spatial Arts, she would have to resort to brute force!
"No need; Let's see you face this," Wei Wuyin dismissed her retaliatory efforts, merely pointing a single finger toward her. Suddenly, the entire world began to react.
"...!" The Moonfall Lunar Queen's eyes constricted severely, and her heart was gripped by an unprecedented sensation of cataclysmic danger. For the first time since she had been discovered, genuine fear flashed across her gorgeous eyes! She hastily halted her hand-seals that had already reached the hundreds in number and forcefully canceled her art before bolting away in a burst of beautiful silvery light! She was full-on fleeing!
Unfortunately for her, she was within Wei Wuyin's STARFIELD! She was warned; Now, she had to suffer the consequences.
Mortal Intent!
Baby Defiant's power began to escalate into a territory that touched upon the limits of the Mortal Dao! One of the benefits of a World-Bound Star Domain, seizing a product of natural Star Ascension as theirs, was the ability to actively grasp Mortal Intent! This was an emulated will of the Mortal Dao!
Wei Wuyin's silver eyes, from his pupils to his irises, lost their color, becoming jet-black. Even his sclera, which was originally a white sea, had been painted with pure shadowy darkness. His current visage, which was as already unearthly handsome as physically possible, had gained a unique demonic flair, almost granting him the visage of a Demonic Emperor!
Yet the demonic feeling that was typically accompanied by violet light or a corrosive aura wasn't present.
The Moonfall Lunar Queen looked back with an irresistible urge in her heart, and seeing Wei Wuyin's appearance caused her mind to throb fiercely as she felt a sense of helplessness swell within her chest. "Wai-Wait!" She stuttered; her sensual voice lost all its charm in that single moment of desperation.
Since the very beginning, this thieving Earthly Saint was fearless as if her life was not in any danger. This caused Wei Wuyin's curiosity and caution to rise, as his displayed force was terrifying to behold, so to possess such confidence meant she had a trump card in her hand.
Wei Wuyin had only given her warnings, trying to handle the matter with civility while showcasing that she was dominated and at his mercy. He wanted her to yield. But it was as if his words and warnings were nothing but wasted air. Not only had she acted against Wei Wuyin by attempting to capture him immediately upon being caught, but she continued to disrespect him by neglecting his merciful offer and refusing to talk except when she asked that extremely pointless question.
He no longer had any patience or mercy to spare!
"Mortal…" Wei Wuyin's pointed finger was locked onto the Moonfall Lunar Queen's fleeing figure. From her reaction, Wei Wuyin knew that she had experienced this type of power before!
"...Annihilation!" When he finally spoke, it was like the whisper of a death god proclaiming one's exile. Baby Defiant's solar activity reached an all-time high, and the entire world began to tremble vigorously! Even those cultivating were stunned, terror and horror emerging in their hearts as well as a subconscious feeling of reverence!
"No!" The Moonfall Lunar Queen hurriedly tried to expel any Alchemic Spirit Remnants within her body and Mystic Soul! It was a renowned ability of Alchemic Sovereigns to invoke Mortal Annihilation—the active and endless rejection of the Mortal Dao—and she knew how to dispel it! She didn't run but hurriedly sat down in the Dark Void, cross-legged, her eyes closed, as she began to rapidly formulate hand-seals to dispel all traces of alchemic remnants from her body. Bursts of seven-colored light and liquid poured out of her pores. Her hectically urgent and extremely violent method caused her Mystic Aura to weaken considerably!
Her method was ingenious and decisive, clearly experienced with Mortal Annihilation; alas, that was only toward the Mortal Annihilation unleashed by an Alchemic Sovereign, not a World-Bound Star Domain. As long as one was within range of the Star Domain, the Mortal Dao's rejection was unstoppable!
This was one of the greatest, most horrifying powers of a World-Bound Star Domain, and why it perfectly represented the peak of the Mortal Realms! By cultivating their World-Bound Star Domain, the phrase 'invincible within the Mortal Realms' was accurate! At least while within the range of their Star Domain's influence!
Suddenly, a serene silence descended across the Neo-Dawn Starfield like an all-encompassing gust. As if by some unnatural force, countless gazes from all over focused on the Moonfall Lunar Queen's distant figure or general direction. While they couldn't 'see' her, they 'felt' something. It was something that provoked indescribable horror within them.
Wu Yu's eyes trembled as he felt the Mortal Dao for the second time in his life! The first time was when he transcended the Mortal Dao! Even then, it was like some kind of mother that was seeing her child off to greater pastures, gentle and warm, forgiving and encouraging, but this was entirely different. There was a current of rage, hatred, and downright ferocity that caused him to shiver.
He shivered!
Every iota of ambient energy, mana, and essence within the Neo-Dawn Starfield reacted! From every Secret Realm, every World Realm, every Flat Continental Earth, every Lunar Satellite, every Planet, every Solar Star throughout the Realm Region, and lastly, from Baby Defiant!
Like a gargantuan flood of hellish material, the energies, essence, and mana of myriad types and attributes began to thunderously barrel toward the Moonfall Lunar Queen from every conceivable direction and every dimension of space! Their speed was carried by mortal-graded light energies, reaching the speed of light!
Undodgeable!
Irresistible!
The Moonfall Lunar Queen was stunned as her pupils shrunk to their limits! She tried to move, but her previous actions had caused her Mystic Aura to teeter on the verge of complete collapse, and the flood of powers was simply too fast. While she had expelled all her internally present Alchemic Spirit Remnants, it didn't matter in the slightest! In fact, it only hastened her fate!
The flood of mortal power was seemingly endless, besieging her from all sides, and she was instantly drowned in a mass of colorful lights and gaeous clouds. She vanished…just like that.
"The Mortal Energies are bringing along Mystic Energies as well. Is it the harmony of Baby Defiant?" Wei Wuyin observed the situation curiously as his jet-black eyes congealed with frightening killing intent as if emulating the will of the Mortal Dao's rejection. He was channeling the state of the Mortal Dao's Will at the moment of rejection!
This was not the typical Mortal Annihilation that Alchemists could unleash, but Mortal Annihilation that was empowered by a Supermassive Solar Star with the harmony of Mortal and Mystic. Wei Wuyin could sense traces of Mystic Energies, Mystic Essence, and Mystic-graded Mana that had been brought along. While it wasn't actively rejecting anyone, the Mystic Dao was assisting the Mortal Dao!
Harmony!
Wu Yu and every other Earthly Saint present, including Lady Clearwind, were watching with unimaginable horror in their quivering hearts. Was this the might of the Neo-Dawn Starfield?!
Wei Wuyin's jet-black eyes narrowed slightly as he watched the continuous flood of crushing power besiege the Moonfall Lunar Queen. This Earthly Saint…was resisting!
Just as Wei Wuyin was about to unleash another ability of the World-Bound Star Domain to bring this to a perfect conclusion, a burst of violet-colored light that was as luminous as a Solar Star explosively erupted!
