Douluo: Starting with the Signing in of Goddess Xiaowu

"No," Chu Qin's expression changed slightly, "There is not just one energy fluctuation, but two! It seems someone has set their sights on this Heavenly Crystal Beast before us!"

"Ah? Who could it be? Someone from the Outer Realms?" Wu Ji Heavenly Emperor asked in confusion.

"Let's observe the situation first," Chu Qin said with a gentle smile, "We might just reap the benefits without lifting a finger."

"Alright," Wu Ji Heavenly Emperor nodded.

With that, Chu Qin and Wu Ji Heavenly Emperor concealed their auras and quietly approached the source of the two energy fluctuations.

Finally, Chu Qin and his companion saw the origin of the two forces.

They were two old men in battle, one dressed in a purple robe with a youthful appearance despite his white hair, the other with white hair and beard, and his body partly transformed into ice-like crystals, making him look almost non-human.

At this moment, both had enlarged immensely, and their terrifying battle had created a powerful energy field, keeping numerous beings from the Outer Realms at bay.

"It's him!" Wu Ji Heavenly Emperor said, eyes blazing with anger upon seeing the youthful-looking elder.

"Who?" Chu Qin seemed to have guessed something.

"The Outer Domain Emperor, Ziri Mojue, 'Mojue' being the title for 'Emperor' in the Outer Realms," Wu Ji Heavenly Emperor said furiously, "It was he, along with another Outer Domain Emperor, who severely wounded my brother, who was ultimately refined by the Tower of Undying!"

"Good, today I must kill him!"

"Wu Ji, don't be hasty," Chu Qin consoled, "Ziri Mojue must be killed, but let's watch the situation first. There may be other Emperors from the Outer Realms present. Even if there aren't, it's better to wait for both to be wounded, for a more opportune moment."

"Hmm!" Wu Ji Heavenly Emperor nodded.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a huge blast, Ziri Mojue clashed with the Heavenly Crystal Beast.

The battle that had taken place earlier between Chu Qin, Tao Wu, and Bi Fang was powerful enough to destroy a universe; the energy of the Emperor level was even more terrifying to the extreme.

However, the Infinite River seemed extraordinary, for despite the collision of two Emperor Realm powerhouses, it merely shook, and space remained intact.

Or perhaps, there was no space here to begin with.

The special energy field they formed also prevented energy from leaking out, sparing Chu Qin and those from the Outer Realms from the impact!

"Heavenly Crystal Beast, let's see how long you can hold on!" Ziri Mojue said with a cold, ghostly laugh as he continued to battle the Heavenly Crystal Beast.

The Heavenly Crystal Beast, unlike other crystal beasts, was capable of shapeshifting into a human form and mastering Secret Manuals.

Except for not being able to speak the language of humans, they were no different from an ordinary Emperor.

Suddenly, with a low roar from the Heavenly Crystal Beast, ice-like crystals instantly spread across its billion-zhang-long body.

At the same time, the crystals spread out from its body, attempting to encase the entire Cosmic Void and Ziri Mojue within.

"Humph! Wishful thinking!"

"Purple Demon True Body!"

Ziri Mojue let out a furious roar, his body enveloped in a terrifying blackish-purple energy.

Upon closer inspection, within that blackish-purple energy, there seemed to be stars entwined and lurking.

Instantly, this blackish-purple energy coalesced into a massive demonic shadow that loomed behind Ziri Mojue.

The moment the Emperor's True Body was unleashed, Ziri Mojue's momentum and power skyrocketed.

In an instant, it crushed the Heavenly Crystal Beast's crystals, and his terrifying purple demonic power threatened to completely devour the Heavenly Crystal Beast.

Sensing Ziri Mojue's fearsome strike, the Heavenly Crystal Beast abandoned any thoughts of combat, and beneath its feet, a black hole like a star emerged, intending to escape into it!

"No one can escape in front of me!" Ziri Mojue let out a cold laugh, and visible energy instantly permeated the entire Cosmic Void.

Purple energy formed a circular shield, sealing off this space.

This was a terrifying method of space control.

In other words, within this space, Ziri Mojue had become the master of the domain.

As a result, the spatial rift at the feet of the Heavenly Crystal Beast was forcefully closed.

The Heavenly Crystal Beast was blasted out of the spatial cave!

Following that, a purple sun appeared in Lord Mojue's hand, shooting straight toward the heart of the Heavenly Crystal Beast!

"Ah!" A mournful roar resounded as the crystal armor on the outer layer of the Heaven-level Monster was shattered to pieces!

At that very moment, upon Lord Mojue's spherical protective shield, a thick layer of crystal formed.

Lord Mojue's spherical protective shield had turned into a Crystal Prison for the Heavenly Crystal Beast.

Lord Mojue and the Heavenly Crystal Beast were immediately enveloped by the Crystal Prison.

The figures of Lord Mojue and the Heavenly Crystal Beast were suddenly lost to the view of the outsiders from the Outer Realms.

"Lord Mojue!" cried out the mighty beings of the Outer Realms upon witnessing this scene.

"Lord Mojue won't be in any danger, right?"

"How could he be? With his divine might enveloping the world, that Heavenly Crystal Beast is merely struggling in its death throes."

Everyone thought that Lord Mojue was certain to kill the Tian Qiang Crystal Beast when, unbeknownst to them, Chu Qin and the Wuji Heavenly Emperor had entered this boundless space the moment the Crystal Prison formed.

"To think it could struggle so desperately, but this is the end!" Lord Mojue, with a resonating cry, pulled a massive sword covered in purple demonic patterns from the Void, directly stabbing it into the heart of the grievously wounded Heavenly Crystal Beast.

In an instant, the Heavenly Crystal Beast condensed into a single point, ultimately transforming into a red Crystal Stone.

The grade of a Crystal Beast corresponded with the color of Soul Rings, progressing from low to high: white, yellow, purple, black, red, gold!

This Heavenly Grade Crystal Core was unmistakably red.

A Heavenly Grade Crystal Core could enable a Saint Emperor to break through their limits and step into the Ancestral Realm!

"Hmph, not worth a single blow!" Lord Mojue looked at the red Crystal Stone before him and revealed a disdainful smile.

Just as he was about to collect the Red Crystal Stone, a pitch-black axe suddenly descended, severing Lord Mojue's palm with one swift stroke!

"Ah!" Instantly, Lord Mojue erupted with a wail of agony.

Before him appeared a figure covered in demonic patterns yet unspeakably handsome.

This was none other than Chu Qin in his demonic state and with the Immortal Demon Body!

Before Lord Mojue could react, Chu Qin already swung the Pangu Axe with supreme divine might aiming for Lord Mojue's neck.

Lord Mojue, acting immediately with his remaining arm, swung the Purple Demon Sword in defense!

But how could Lord Mojue, responding in haste and with just one hand, be an opponent for Chu Qin who had planned his attack carefully and was in his prime state?

Not to mention, Chu Qin with the Immortal Demon Body had surpassed beings like Yang Tian, the Ancestral Emperor; he was even stronger than the Ancient Emperor by a fair margin.

Thus, in an instant, Chu Qin managed to knock the Purple Demon Sword from Lord Mojue's hand, and straightaway brought his axe down toward Lord Mojue's head.

Lord Mojue had no escape, ultimately choosing to block Chu Qin's axe with his chest!

A thunderous boom resonated as Lord Mojue's Emperor's True Body was cleaved by Chu Qin's Pangu Axe, leaving a terrifying black pattern across his chest.

Within that pattern lingered the formidable energy of the Pangu Axe, making it nearly impossible for Lord Mojue, even with the Emperor's True Body, to recover in a short time!

Instinctively, Lord Mojue tried to flee into the space outside, but he recalled too late that out of overconfidence, he had not shattered the Crystal Prison of the Heavenly Crystal Beast.

It was precisely because of the Heavenly Crystal Beast's final full-force strike before its death that the Outer Realm powerhouses were unable to detect the commotion within.

At that moment, another figure emerged, shrouded in eerie darkness with peerless facial features, akin to an angel descending into darkness, who swung twin scimitars, relentlessly striking at Lord Mojue!

"Immortal Sacred Blade!" Lord Mojue, not recognizing the Wuji Heavenly Emperor, instead identified the Holy Artifact in her hands!

"Lord Mojue, prepare to be beheaded!" the Wuji Heavenly Emperor, in her Emperor's True Body state, issued a spine-chilling tremor.

"Thinking of killing me is not that easy!" Lord Mojue roared, with purple demonic patterns spreading all over his body, and a pair of purple wings unfolding from his back.

"Zi Mo Yan Shi!" The next moment, endless purple energy swirled around him like a cosmic storm.

Under this terrifying onslaught of energy, the Immortal Sacred Blade in the hands of the Wuji Heavenly Emperor was halted.

"The power of the Taiyin True Dragon!" the Wuji Heavenly Emperor exclaimed!
