Chapter 710: Chapter 704: All Heavens in Turmoil! Endless Carnage!
When Ma Ran mentioned "you," the Supreme of Time, Mo Xing, could still hide in the darkness, concealing his presence, holding onto a glimmer of hope.
But after he said those words, Mo Xing could no longer continue pretending to be dead.
In the pitch-black vacuum environment, beams of multicolored light flowed, intertwined, and coiled. The Vacuum Spirits, who had been dead, revived one by one and emitted eerie voices—words spoken by Zhu Ding when he was still alive, only now they sounded like the rewinding of an old audio tape, fragmented and unsettlingly eerie.
A transparent human silhouette gradually outlined itself in front of Ma Ran.
Black droplets coalesced, bit by bit, filling the silhouette.
Soon, a young figure clad in a silver-white outfit rich with a sci-fi flair, donning a purely black crown and wearing sneakers appeared.
This mismatched attire simultaneously bore ancient, modern, and futuristic styles, standing out conspicuously and seeming as if it shouldn’t belong to this era.
"You must be the Supreme of Time?"
Ma Ran looked at Mo Xing with a faint smile, sizing him up before slightly nodding, saying: "I know your name."
"Mo Xing."
"It sounds poetic, full of charm."
"Moreover, compared to Zhu Ding, your personality is much more cautious."
"I can sense that your survival ability is not inferior to Chi Xiao’s, yet upon hearing a warning, you chose to distance yourself immediately, sending only a thought projection."
Unlike the previous Supreme of Reincarnation, Chi Xiao, Mo Xing is remarkably handsome, gender indistinguishable, with naïve and passionate yet also aged eyes, exuding a conflicting aura, leaving a profound first impression.
After hearing Ma Ran’s words, Mo Xing’s eyelids twitched slightly before he calmly said: "You’re mocking me for fearing death, trying to provoke me into a life-and-death duel with you."
"I won’t be fooled, nor will I be angered because of it."
"Even having reached the Supreme Ruler realm, I was not born noble."
"To reach where I am today, I’ve endured countless adversities and hardships; my friends who once fought alongside me have all perished, their souls extinguished."
"What I rely on is not just my minute abilities, but also caution and patience."
Having said this, Mo Xing paused, gazing unmoving at Ma Ran’s face like a statue, with nearly imperceptible lip movement, yet his voice echoed directly in Ma Ran’s mind: "You’ve already proven your ability by killing Chi Xiao."
"Coupled with the mysterious veil over you and those Cangming Overlords."
"Heh..."
"I really want to kill you and that Ye Honglian."
"I won’t deny this point."
"After all, the three of us share a non-stop competitive relationship, leaving no room for reconciliation."
Mo Xing furrowed his brows, shifting his tone to a determined one saying: "Don’t try to deny it, earlier when you battled Zhu Ding, you even split your focus and used the highly prioritized Power of Time, temporarily obscuring my perception."
"I didn’t forcibly break through that confusion barrier at the first moment because I wanted to find your secret through it."
Saying this, Mo Xing focused intently on Ma Ran, trying to catch a glimpse of some negative emotions on his face.
For instance, fear, cowardice, panic.
Unfortunately, there was none.
Ma Ran just looked at him with calm eyes: "Say something worthwhile."
"Do not disappoint me."
"Otherwise..."
"The consequences would be severe."
Mo Xing’s thought projection floated back a few meters, distancing himself from Ma Ran, then gave a self-deprecating smile, softly saying: "Of course."
"Even someone as dangerous as you, engulfed in demonic flames, I wouldn’t want to provoke lightly."
"If not for different standpoints, I wouldn’t wish to be your enemy."
"Speaking of which..."
"The conflict between us is an interest dispute."
"Though irreconcilable, there’s no personal vendetta or grudge between us either."
"On this, we should both agree, shouldn’t we?"
"So please have a little patience."
"This conversation will not disappoint you by the end."
"Now, let me continue with what I was saying."
"Firstly, I didn’t find your secret."
Mo Xing’s face displayed a somewhat awkward formulaic smile: "Even something hidden so deeply, if Cang Lian couldn’t find it, neither could I."
"But I still discovered some important information."
"That Power of Time confounding my Perception Ability is definitely not ’a borrowed power from someone else.’"
"It originated from you!"
"Because of this, once I seize the opportunity and have enough confidence, I would undoubtedly take action immediately."
To take action means—to kill Ma Ran and Ye Fengqing, to destroy not only their bodies and souls but even their True Spirit Seal. To root out completely, never to have future troubles!
Condensed into two words afterward, it might sound a bit more pleasant.
Seeing Ma Ran still with that composed demeanor, Mo Xing sighed: "But..."
"You and that Ye Honglian aren’t eternal friends, are you?"
"For you, the best outcome is to, after eliminating me, seize and obtain the supreme temporal authority, pushing me off that position."
"Even if everything goes smoothly, the Supreme of Time status taken from me holds just one spot."
"Would it be enough for you two?"
Mo Xing shook his head, saying disappointedly: "No need to answer, I already know the outcome."
"Your connection is indeed close..."
"Ma Ran controls Destiny, Su Qiangwei controls Fusion, Ye Fengqing controls Time, Lin Qiubai controls Reincarnation, Zhang Kuang controls Power, Zhao Guanlan controls Merit."
"Quite a reasonable distribution scheme."
"Apart from the Primordial Supreme Cang Lian’s authority, the other six positions are clearly arranged by you all."
"Faced with such an unbreakable alliance of interests, schemes to sow discord are utterly useless!"
As the Supreme of Time, Mo Xing can exist simultaneously in the past, present, and future.
If he wants some information, he doesn’t even need to speak to people directly; a mere thought, and he can immediately acquire the answer.
However, once the target becomes Ma Ran, things become vastly different.
Ma Ran’s stature is nearly equal to that of the other six Supreme Rulers in the Divine Court.
To find out anything related to him, Mo Xing must personally intervene to keep variables within a bearable limit.
Just a moment ago, his future self personally experienced the results of engaging Ma Ran and Ye Honglian countless eons, trillions of outcomes.
Death, downfall, decline, ominousness, annihilation, his True Spirit crammed into the Wall of the End...
From the perspective of the future, Mo Xing hasn’t had a single favorable outcome.
If not for the "present" and "past" selves not being completely annihilated, allowing for infinite ’future forms’ to spawn, had his survival ability been any weaker, he would have likely followed in Zhu Ding’s footsteps.
Now, amidst the Demon Nests rising across the cosmos, with the end approaching, even Mo Xing cannot know all things.
He can now ascertain—Ma Ran and those formidable figures in the future will not be weaker than the current setup of the Divine Court.
Mo Xing even saw a scene where the Extraordinary Ones on Earth, led by Ma Ran, fought against Otherworld and Outer Plane invaders.
The chaotic battles across the heavens stirred up bloody storms among the Endless Plane, decimating countless beings, causing universe and plane after plane to fall, their origins divided and devoured by victorious worlds.
