In the midst of giggles, Zhenzhen's figure gradually faded away, vanishing into the void of the universe. Chu Mo stood alone in the void, silent for a very long time. He couldn't bring himself to trust Zhenzhen's words completely, believing them maybe seventy or eighty percent at most. He didn't buy that her intentions were so simple—helping out in times of trouble warranted her taking such immense risks every year and betraying the Luotian Imperial Clan? Please, even kids wouldn't fall for that!
The witch most likely initially thought to use this as leverage against him, but why she later changed her mind remained unknown. One thing was for sure, her real motives were anything but simple.
As for all this, Chu Mo didn't really care that much. Even if Zhenzhen went around claiming that she was Chu Mo, no one could prove it anyway. At most, it would just be a bit of trouble. Chu Mo still had great faith in the mask left to him by his mother.
Furthermore, he was skilled in many Supreme Arts, not just in sword techniques.
Especially after stepping into the Supreme Realm, the things he could unleash had fundamentally changed. Even if the Demon Lord appeared before him now, he wouldn't dare to acknowledge him. Chu Mo suspected that even his father, Chu Tianji, wouldn't be able to recognize him if he came!
So, Chu Mo really wasn't worried about Zhenzhen spreading rumors everywhere. Moreover, this witch was very clever, no, excessively clever. She would never go around broadcasting this matter.
She wouldn't even dare to reveal her true identity to the Luotian Imperial Clan!
With these thoughts, a slight smile appeared on the corner of Chu Mo's lips. He understood that Zhenzhen had no choice but to seek cooperation with him!
Firstly, her desire to break free from the Demon Realm and the Great Demon King was verifiable. But she didn't want to submit to a prince of the Imperial Clan, to become someone's plaything. Her aspirations... were high!
Secondly, she didn't dare to casually inform the members of the Imperial Clan about her own information, as those people would surely silence her and hog the news for themselves.
She had seen through what those Imperial descendants were all about, so she dared not do so.
But she also didn't want to let go of such a golden opportunity, so she found him and requested cooperation. The so-called help in times of dire need was pure nonsense. Her real purpose, more likely than not, was still undecided, but it definitely required significant effort from him.
Or, to say it was a kind of foresight for the future and to establish a good karma with him.
Such karma is often the hardest favor to repay!
Chu Mo couldn't help but sigh in his heart, feeling somewhat disheartened. He had hidden himself so well, yet this brash girl had still spotted a flaw. Truly, even the tightest net has its breaks!
Just then, an energy fluctuation coursed through the void, and a figure slowly appeared billions of miles away.
Upon appearing, this person immediately locked their divine sense onto Chu Mo.
"Here we go again!" A furrow formed on Chu Mo's brow, and a sense of annoyance welled up in his heart.
He was now finally experiencing firsthand the murderous intent that the cultivators on the Heavenly Ranking of Heaven and Earth felt.
"You're Lin Hei? What have you done to deserve a place on the Heavenly Ranking? You must have taken advantage of someone's misfortune, huh, got it right, didn't I? But you don't even have a trace of shame on your face, you're shameless!" the person babbled from billions of miles away.
Chu Mo was exasperated, wondering what on Seven Great Domains or the Immortal Domain this character might be—a top Heavenly Genius, or just someone with a screw loose?
Boom!
Suddenly, this person sacrificed a dharma instrument, a flying sword that flew at speeds hundreds of times faster than light and swiftly slashed towards Chu Mo.
"I'll take vengeance for Xue Wulei!"
When he said "I'll take", no flying sword had been sacrificed yet, but by the time he said "vengeance", the flying sword had already reached Chu Mo, coming with unprecedented killing intent, suppressing Heaven and Earth, and unleashing a sword qi that was astonishingly sharp.
Sharp to the extreme!
The void was instantly split into two halves.
Chu Mo casually swiped with his hand as if he was swatting a fly, full of disdain.
Bang!
The sword qi burst into fragments!
Then, the true body of the flying sword ferociously slashed towards Chu Mo's head.
In Chu Mo's hand, the Cold Moon Blade swept through the air.
Clang!
Crack!
The flying sword broke.
Then Chu Mo threw the Cold Moon Blade out, crossing billions of miles in the void, passing countless stars, and with one stroke, he bisected the cultivator.
At this moment, the cultivator was only able to say the word "tears" referring to Xue Wulei.
After being bisected by the Cold Moon Blade, the four words "take vengeance for" were finally completed.
Then, he let out an earth-shattering scream, "How can you do this... You're too cruel! You..."
Chu Mo withdrew his Cold Moon Blade, through billions of miles of void, without even sparing him an extra glance, flicked his finger and a wind sliced through the air, instantly arriving.
Thunk!
Directly, a bloody hole appeared on the young supreme's head, falling dead on the spot.
His name also instantaneously vanished from the Heavenly Ranking on the reincarnation river.
A few people gathered around the Ranking sighed. Just now, they watched him boast about challenging Lin Hei, who was ninth on the Heavenly Ranking. Claiming that Lin Hei must have used some despicable means to replace Xue Wulei. He also bragged to his friends about what kind of trump cards he had.
But in just a little while... his name... disappeared.
If it were just a defeat, his name should still be on the Ranking. Disappearance meant only one possibility. He was dead.
"This Lin Hei, doesn't seem like someone who's just entered the Trial Field."
"Indeed, those who have just entered the Trial Field usually harbor some illusions about benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith. They wouldn't kill so swiftly and directly."
"Tragic, someone ranked over two thousand seven hundred on the Heavenly Ranking, even in the Luotian Immortal Domain, would hold a certain status and position. And just like that, he's gone. Was it worth it?"
"Don't mind how others climb the ranks, as long as their name appears on the Heavenly Ranking, they definitely possess great strength..."
All of these people shook their heads and sighed, leaving the area. Among them, there were those who contemplated making their move. But what they thought most was: Even if they defeated Lin Hei, they would soon be challenged and replaced. With their strength, they had no way of holding their ground on the Heavenly Ranking!
But now they understood, even this Lin Hei was not someone they could provoke!
However, the world would never lack those who dream of overnight fame. Even top young Heavenly Geniuses from the Seven Great Domains are no exceptions.
When it comes to challenges on the Heaven and Earth Rankings, the monks on the list cannot be challenged by another during a battle. But as soon as the fight ends, they can immediately be challenged by the next person!
This utterly unfair rule created the cruelty of the Trial Field. Indeed, many monks on the Human or even Earth Rankings have been worn down to death through repeated battles. Therefore, during combat, almost no one shows mercy.
Unless it's those on the Heavenly Ranking who are acquainted to a certain extent, or even those from various families who have deep ties with each other. Then the nature of their sparring might involve more camaraderie.
Below the Heavenly Ranking, there is no sentiment.
Right after Chu Mo had just killed a challenger, the second one... appeared.
This was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. He was calm and did not attack Chu Mo right away. Instead, he assessed Chu Mo cautiously, measured him up and down, and then bowed with fists clasped towards Chu Mo, "My name is Lin Luan, I am actually related to you. This time, I came mainly to seek some advice and I hope you can show mercy."
Chu Mo's eyes were cold as he looked at this sincere-faced middle-aged man, "Are you done talking?"
The middle-aged man was slightly taken aback, "Ah, I've finished."
"Make your move. Those behind you are getting impatient," Chu Mo said indifferently.
His unexpected appearance on the rankings was strange to many. It goes without saying, the number of those challenging him would be endless!
There are many rational people, but likewise, a significant number believe that he relied on luck, or sneak attacks, or took advantage of others' vulnerabilities to defeat Xue Wulei. They speculate that he stole the ninth spot on the Heavenly Ranking. Right now, those who want to take him down are innumerable.
The middle-aged man displayed an awkward smile, "No, I didn't mean to fight to the death with you..."
While he was speaking, Chu Mo made his move.
One strike!
Just one strike!
A palm imprint struck the middle-aged cultivator's chest, sending his body flying away.
At the same time, a powerful disposable dharma instrument with fierce killing intent fell from the middle-aged man's body.
Then, the dharma instrument exploded with a bang. Blasting the middle-aged cultivator's body to smithereens.
"Not even a fart." Chu Mo rolled his eyes and looked towards the fluctuating void in the distance. An icy chill flashed in his eyes, and in his gaze, a world was collapsing, perishing.
Everyone comes, then let them all die!
