Perhaps the cultivators were not charming enough, but the ‘Heavenly Dao Molt Ball’ continued its descent steadily while remaining unperturbed by them. It descended at its own pace with unwavering determination.

At this stage, the ‘Heavenly Dao Molt Ball’ displayed a heart-wrenching obsession with its target. Even after losing ‘Tyrannical Song’s Battle Boots’, it remained fixated solely on Song Shuhang.

Faced against this colossal liquid metal sphere, most of the cultivators from the modern world and Earth dared not approach too closely. Those with lower cultivation levels felt as though their bodies might crumble and shatter if they got too close. The robust physique of these cultivators seemed as fragile as ordinary porcelain.

Getting any closer caused even their spiritual energy, holy light, and wizardry to run amok.

All this was happening even though the ‘Heavenly Dao Molt Ball’ was being influenced by the laws of the modern world and had been suppressed accordingly.

If the nomological suppression on the ‘Heavenly Dao Molt Ball’ were to completely disappear, it wouldn’t need to take any action. As it descended, the attribute of ‘destroying all things’ would spread outward from its center and cause apocalyptic destruction.

Even on a relatively large planet, it would only need to roll across it a few times to achieve world-ending devastation.

“Let’s figure out how to slow it down first, and ideally, we can block its descent,” suggested a Buddhist Supremacy with a resolute tone.

Following this, a massive lotus throne materialized with the Buddhist Supremacy at its center. This was the power of a Seventh Stage Venerable—an illusion turned into reality.

This illusion was an incredibly potent ability for cultivators. According to Senior Three-Eyed, theoretically, it shouldn’t be something a Seventh Stage Venerable could control. It transformed illusions into reality and created an illusory world unique to the Seventh Stage Venerable. The larger their heart, the larger the world they could create. This was a way to turn the void into reality.

In the Seventh Stage Venerable’s illusion, even if the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball descended several kilometers or tens of kilometers, it might only move forward by one or two centimeters once the illusion was dispelled.

The Buddhist Supremacy initiated his illusion and created a realm known as the Lotus Platform Buddhist Kingdom, which enveloped the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball within it.

Behind him, two Supremacies stood ready to take over once the first Supremacy’s illusion was exhausted.

Further back, a group of Fifth Stage cultivators held shields radiating ‘holy light.’ These were combined magical treasures. However, they were ordinary combined magical treasures, not genuine magical treasures. This magical treasure set was called Mountain Paradise. When all the shields were activated, they could project the shadow of Mountain Paradise to resist the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball.

Although it was a holy light-type treasure, cultivators from various factions, including Daoists, Buddhists, and scholars, could just barely activate and use it.

The Mountain Paradise was backed up by magical battleships and ancient cultivation immortal boats. These ships adjusted their cannons and locked onto the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball, ready to provide support when needed.

Following that, sorcery practitioners began casting various strengthening spells on the cultivators at the front.

The methods and spells employed by these cultivators were diverse and dazzling.

Profound Sage Tyrannical Song watched the battlefield through the virtuous lamia’s eye. He couldn’t help but feel envious. When would he reach such a level and possess so many spells, divine arts, magic tools, and divine weapons at his disposal?

With that thought in mind, his hands, hair, and arms moved even faster on the sealing pillar.

Four minutes later.

The illusion created by the Buddhist Supremacy shattered. His face paled, and veins bulged on his forehead. The illusion proved to be an effective way to delay the ‘Heavenly Dao Molt Ball,’ but it shattered much faster than anyone had expected.

“I’m taking over,” announced a Daoist Supremacy as he stepped forward to assume control.

Venerable Xi Chong of the Buddhist Sect nodded and communicated through mental transmission, “It’s in your hands now, my dear black-bellied Venerable.”

The Daoist Supremacy couldn’t help but feel speechless. Who was the real black-bellied one here? Not only were the Buddhists black-bellied, but their belly buttons seemed to be too!

Nonetheless, there was no time to waste, and the black-bellied Venerable quickly took over the position previously held by Venerable Xi Chong. He unleashed his illusion and enveloped the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball once more.

“I hope this black-bellied Venerable can hold on a little longer,” Venerable Xi Chong muttered as he swallowed a pill. His tone was tinged with regret.

The Holy Light Venerable nodded in agreement.

“By the way, if we allow this metal ball to continue descending, where will it land on Earth?” the Holy Light Venerable suddenly asked.

“It should land near China, but I can’t pinpoint the exact location,” replied Venerable Xi Chong. He secretly hoped it wouldn’t land anywhere near his cave abode.

“As for China, I recall that Profound Sage Tyrannical Song resides in the Jiangnan region, right? Has Profound Sage Tyrannical Song arrived yet?” The Holy Light Venerable inquired mentally.

This was primarily due to Profound Sage Tyrannical Song’s recent surge in popularity. Mention China, and cultivators from all over the universe would instantly think of him. Even the charismatic Sage Monarch White paled in comparison to Tyrannical Song’s current fame, thanks to his frequent television appearances.

Venerable Xi Chong shook his head and replied, “Profound Sage Tyrannical Song is an enigmatic figure. He even appeared on the moon not long ago, and for some reason, the universe ‘forgot’ about him. It was only a few days ago that he regained recognition. A being of his caliber can traverse the world with ease, thanks to Spatial Energy.”

“Unfortunately, Sage Monarch Winter Melon is still talking about him,” the Holy Light Venerable sighed.

“Is Sage Monarch Winter Melon present?” Xi Chong Venerable’s eyes brightened.

Due to the lack of time, only the three of them, the most formidable cultivators present, had ventured into space. If a Saint Monarch were to join them in defense, they would feel much more confident.

“Sage Monarch Winter Melon will be here shortly,” the Holy Light Venerable assured.

Boom!

The black-bellied Venerable’s ability to hold on proved longer than Venerable Xi Chong’s. However, it lasted only about six minutes before his illusion was shattered.

“I’m taking over!” The Holy Light Venerable rushed forward and immediately activated his illusion.

“This is bad. I sense that this metal ball is becoming more and more agile,” the black-bellied Venerable noted. His voice tinged with concern as he swallowed several pills. He felt that when he swept the metal ball into his illusion, it had become more agile. It was as if the metal ball was using his illusion to recover.

Perhaps using illusions to deal with it hadn’t been the best choice..
