Back during the first exploration, it didn’t seem significant, but now it’s apparent that the gray mist energy once discovered in the tomb clusters can be seen everywhere on these Immortal Domain Continent ruins, appearing every few dozen or hundred light-years.
"Replicate [Alien Species Energy Purification Sculpture], full power operation."
Song Chi’s command was delivered through the Ethereal Body.
Instantly, a radiant seven-colored halo emanated from the warship’s hull, forming a purification field around it.
The mont the gray mist attempting to approach touched the field, it imdiately emitted a "sizzling" sound, being purified into harmless energy particles.
[Sky Patrol Radar scan shows a strong energy reaction 30,000 light-years ahead, possibly a gray mist energy body of eighth rank or higher.]
As the prompt from the replicated Do Sky Wisdom Brain rang, a gleam flashed in Song Chi’s eyes:
"Full speed ahead, maintain the highest alert state."
As the mirror image warship darted toward the target area, the gray mist grew denser, and even with the protection of the purification field, the warship’s various performances were noticeably suppressed.
More unsettling was the vague sight of nurous irregular floating land fragnts hovering in the vault of heaven with countless twisted biological outlines clinging to these floating land fragnts in this fog-covered area.
It was only due to the strong concealnt effect provided by the replicated [Three Realms Five Elents Certificate] that these twisted gray mist energy bodies remained unaware of the mirror image warship’s presence.
After hours of continuous advancent, at a certain point, the replicated Do Sky Wisdom Brain suddenly blared an alarm:
[Detected high-intensity spatial energy fluctuations, unknown object rapidly approaching the warship!]
Song Chi imdiately pulled up the holographic image to see the gray mist before him churning violently, as a massive shadow rapidly took form.
It was an indescribable terrifying creature, with a body composed purely of gray mist, exuding a suffocating might.
"Mythical-grade gray mist lifeform!"
Song Chi’s pupils contracted sharply. Although he was ntally prepared when deciding to restart the exploration of the Immortal Domain Continent ruins, encountering a tenth-rank mythical gray mist lifeform so soon still shook him greatly.
Yet his response was not difficult. Upon capturing the tenth-rank gray mist energy body, massive weapon systems on the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong Image Warship were instantly activated, the White Hole Halo Shield burst out in brilliant light, and the mirror image warship entered combat mode in the shortest ti possible.
At the sa ti, the gray mist creature emitted a silent screech, causing the gray mist energy in the vast area spanning thousands of light-years to boil, and an epic battle was on the verge of breaking out.
The gray mist surged, and the mythical-grade gray mist lifeform’s body fully took shape—formless and shapeless, yet it bore six illusory twisted tentacles, each ending in a multitude of cutting blades.
Its head had no facial features, only a constantly rotating gray mist vortex, exuding an overwhelming oppression.
However, what Song Chi focused on was not that. Over ten thousand years ago, deep within the Immortal Tomb Mountain Range, he had also witnessed an unknown mythical lifeform in action. When compared, the scenes from then to now were entirely different, as he couldn’t find a trace of similarity between them.
While controlling the mirror image warship to dodge and attack, Song Chi was also filled with doubt.
"Could there be more than one mastermind behind the scenes left in these Immortal Domain Continent ruins?"
"Or was the one back then a forr myth of the Immortal Domain, while this one is the true mastermind?"
...
In an instant, nurous thoughts flashed through Song Chi’s mind, but they quickly returned to present matters.
No matter how it was, the current battle was key.
Woo woo woo!
The gray mist mythical lifeform’s six illusory tentacles were raised high, the myriad cutting blades condensed from gray mist energy clashed, producing a soul-piercing sharp explosion.
In the face of such an attack, Song Chi might have been worried in the past, but now with the replicated [White Hole Halo Heaven-Supporting Shield] of colorful extre quality, the shield itself countered all energy, soul, and physical attacks equally, making the soul-targeting shriek difficult to shake.
Over on the gray mist energy body’s side, it noticed this imdiately, then to Song Chi’s great surprise, it abruptly changed its attack mode.
Amidst raging gray mist energy, the tenth-rank gray mist energy body suddenly concealed itself within the depths of the gray mist. Just as Song Chi thought it was attempting to attack slyly, the distant gray mist was abruptly torn apart.
"This is..."
Upon seeing the newly erged black shadow, Song Chi’s heart lurched with shock.
Completely different from the previous gray mist energy body, this reappeared black shadow was no longer in a phantom form but rather a colossal dog-like creature with three heads and entirely pitch-black.
"Is this... a mythical-grade Hell Three-headed Dog?"
For a mont, he felt utterly confused.
He genuinely couldn’t fathom why a mont—a energy-type lifeform in a phantom energy form—could instantaneously transform into a carbon-based divine beast.
If not for the replicated [Eye of Truth] clearly indicating that the energy fluctuations emitted by the Hell Three-headed Dog were completely consistent with the previous gray mist energy body, Song Chi would have undoubtedly suspected the two were fundantally different lifeforms.
But then again, what was really causing this?
"Soul egression?"
"Or parasitism? Or body seizing, or symbiosis perhaps?"
...
At so point, Song Chi felt a twinkle of clarity in mind as if he had grasped a key point, but before he could continue, the mythical Hell Three-headed Dog had already launched a full-scale attack on the mirror image warship.
Left with no choice, he could only rein in his thoughts and focus on controlling the mirror image warship in combat with the Hell Three-headed Dog.
Compared to the previous gray mist energy form, the physical form of the Hell Three-headed Dog now posed much greater threats to the mirror image warship, demanding careful handling.
Not to ntion, the Hell Three-headed Dog itself possessed a rare high-rank divine beast bloodline, with a body terrifyingly strong, coupled with multiple impressive bloodline divine abilities, making its combat power often top-notch among peers.
Song Chi was well aware of this, so he wasn’t overconfident. He imdiately summoned the Skeleton Giant.
With a turn of his mind, the armor on the belly of the mirror image warship opened, and a Skeleton Giant just slightly smaller than the Hell Three-headed Dog stepped out.
"Roar—!"
The Skeleton Giant let out a deafening roar, its bony right arm clenching the five-colored [Rakshasa Heaven-Slaying Sword] and swinging it down violently, the Rakshasa Heaven-Slaying Sword carrying destructive energy slashed toward the Hell Three-headed Dog.
The two mythical-grade creatures instantly clashed, and space shattered wherever they passed.
Seizing this opportunity, Song Chi maneuvered the mirror image warship to the side, starting the charge of powerful main cannons like [Judgnt Light], [Blood Erosion Destruction Cannon], and [High-dinsional Particle Collapse Cannon].
Just as the mirror image warship’s main cannon was about to fire, the Replicated Eye of Truth suddenly captured abnormal data:
[Detected abnormal energy fluctuations from the target!]
[Dual energy reactions detected inside the Hell Three-headed Dog!]
Song Chi’s gaze sharpened, and he quickly accessed the data captured by the Eye of Truth.
Displayed in the holographic projection was a phantom gray mist silhouette within the Hell Three-headed Dog,which precisely matched the initial form of the gray mist energy body!
Yet beside this gray mist energy body, there was another gray mist energy light group.
Within this gray mist was yet another gray mist energy body, albeit with weaker energy level fluctuations, wavering between ninth-rank overturn and half-step myth.
More subtly, this gray mist light group extended a fine gray mist thread, connecting the gray mist light group and the heart of the Hell Three-headed Dog as a link.
This discovery made Song Chi feel increasingly eerie, yet he couldn’t fathom what it all truly ant, and no one would co to provide him an answer.
