dy remained motionless, while Kong Benchu staggered backward until he retreated several steps before managing to stand steady.Even so, the already slightly flushed face turned crimson in an instant. A...Looking down at the fully revealed Moyun City below, besides the two ghost tribe men who looked alike and remained expressionless, both Meng Qiao and Yin Hong's faces were filled with excitement.

Meng Qiao smiled slightly: “Jiang Yun was the one who interfered with the reincarnation of Heaven in this city, shattering my Gate to the Underworld and preventing the creatures from becoming immortal.”

"This indicates that there must be someone of utmost importance to him within this Cloud City."

If he's in the city, then that would be best, of course. Even if he isn't, as long as we hold the lives of these creatures in the city hostage, I believe he will surely appear before us!

"Let's catch him!"

……

As for Yin Hong and the others, they had already appeared above Moyun City, but Jiang Yun was still oblivious.

Although a sudden flash of insight had just appeared in his mind, letting him know that choosing only one of the two personalities, good and evil, would allow him to instantly step into the realm of Dao nature, he was unwilling to give up the other personality.

Moreover, he felt that since everything in this world has two sides, if one were to abandon either of the opposing personalities of good and evil, then their true nature, even themselves, would become incomplete!

Cultivation is about refining oneself and pursuing the Dao.

If even the realization of Dao's nature is incomplete, and even one's own self is flawed, then how can one possibly pursue the true Dao

Of course, he knew that too.

If what one comprehends is not the duality of good and evil, but rather, like other cultivators, only understands domineeringness, coldness, and other singular personalities, then one would have no such entanglement.

But since I have realized two kinds of Dao, I must persevere!

Ginger Yun's personality is extremely tenacious, or you could say stubborn!

He was resolute about what he believed in, and almost nothing could change it. Therefore, since he wanted to retain both personalities at this time, he wouldn't give up, even if he couldn't enter the realm of Daoism!

As Jiang Yun continued his contemplation, a voice tinged with both resignation and wry amusement echoed from above the mountain peak where he sat cross-legged: “My instincts were right, this child… certainly won't behave!”

I don't know what you're still hesitating about, but I can't keep protecting this world any longer. All I can do now is protect you.

The voice gradually lowered, fading away into the world.

And as the sound completely vanished, in this world that only existed in the eyes of people like Yin Hong and Meng Qiao—a world entirely comprised of Mo Yun City—a sudden gust of wind started blowing from somewhere unknown.

The wind was not strong, it should have passed without a trace, but this gust of wind, as it swept through the heavens and earth, left its mark, just like a bird flying over the water surface, leaving behind a faint ripple.

At first, this was just a ripple.

But gradually, this ripple grew larger and larger, covering an ever-wider area. In the end, it transformed into towering waves, as if sweeping across the entire world.

Under the tumultuous waves, in their veiled eyes, a clearer picture of the world's true visage began to emerge.

This world is much like other worlds; it has mountains, water, forests, and rocks.

However, there was only one mountain, and the solitary figure seated atop its peak, remained entirely beyond everyone's sight.

This sudden change caused the four of Yin Hong to temporarily stop their journey to Moyun City. Their faces were filled with vigilance, and they each released their divine sense, covering all directions.

They naturally knew that this change came from the strong one who had removed the assimilating force that shrouded this world.

Therefore, Temo was searching for Ginger Cloud's whereabouts while also on guard against the possibility of that powerful individual suddenly appearing.

It's a pity that they ended up empty-handed in the end. They could only walk back towards Mo Yun City with confusion and bewilderment.

……

"I might have a way!"

At the same time, a look of sudden enlightenment appeared on Jiang Yun's face within the illusion. His eyes were filled with dazzling light as he spoke softly.

As Jiang Yun's voice fell, black lines suddenly appeared on his body.

This is the Extinction Demon Mark.

Although the Annihilation Demon Body he summoned had vanished and the demon runes forming it had dissipated, some annihilation demon runes still lingered within him during the time of the Great War Heavenly Fortune.

Looking at the annihilation magic patterns on his body, three of Jiang Yun's Dao Bodies appeared before him again.

Chaos Dao Body, Flesh Dao Body and Thunder Dao Body!

With the return of the physical body to the spiritual body, the cultivation levels of the three spiritual bodies also remained at the same level as Jiang Yun's main body.

Jiang Yun's gaze continuously swept across the three Dao bodies, finally settling on the Primordial Chaos Dao body.

The primordial Dao body originated from the Dao demon Huntian, or perhaps it was a spirit of Huntian, descendant of the Primordial Chaos race, who helped Jiang Yun condense it.

During Jiang Yun's growth, the chaotic Dao body did indeed give him a lot of help.

Moreover, his cultivation didn't require any concern from Jiang Yun at all.

As for this, Ginger Cloud although a little confused, did not think too much about it.

Until within the Nine-colored Realm, he summoned nine powerful figures from various clans to spar with him.

When facing the strongmen of the Chaotic Clan, the Chaotic Yang within him spontaneously released an irresistible force, devouring them. This made Jiang Yun have a deep suspicion about this Chaotic Dao Body.

But he couldn't say what exactly he suspected.

After all, as one's own dao body, one can still clearly know that this chaotic dao body still belongs to oneself and is under one's control.

His existence also allowed his own abilities to improve.

After gazing at the primordial spirit body for a moment, Jiang Yun shifted his gaze to the physical body.

Next, the annihilation demon runes located above his main body rapidly detached themselves, separating from his main body and moving towards his physical and spiritual bodies.

Until it entered the body of a fleshly Daoist's inner self and disappeared.

Because the Dao body is essentially just like the cloud of ginger, there is no obstacle to the transfer of demonic patterns.

"Although this Demonic Sealing Rune is indeed powerful, its power is simply too overwhelming."

Just like the "Demon" in its name, it is not only frenzied and brutal, but can also control my body, automatically summoning whirlpools and stirring the Annihilation Demon Statue.

Jiang Yun was born free and did not like to be controlled by others.

And his final battle with Dao Tianyun, although it looked like he was fighting, only he knew the truth. At that time, he himself was merely a tool.

The one who truly makes a move, the one who truly possesses the power to kill Dao Tianyun and shatter the power of the Great Dao Body, is the Annihilation Demon Physique.

Or perhaps, it's the Demon Mark of Extinction!

Especially when he learned that his life, even his reincarnation, could be manipulated by others, he became even more averse to the Annihilation Magic Pattern. Therefore, he transferred the Annihilation Magic Pattern onto his Dao body.

Now we can find out if my method actually works!

After completing all of this, anyone would probably not understand what he had done. At the same time that Jiang Yun spoke to himself, he also opened his eyes and left the illusion.

And the physical body and spirit body also left the illusion, appearing before him, and walking towards his body.

As his Taoist body and main spirit merged together, Jiang Yun's originally somewhat thin body slowly became muscular. A murderous look also appeared on his previously expressionless face.

Even, in his eyes, there was a flash of ferocity!

At the same time, Ginger Cloud also coldly opened his mouth and said: "My... Dao nature!"

"Hum!"

As soon as the four characters "Ginger Cloud" left his mouth, within this nameless wasteland's boundary gap, a sudden gust of wind and swirling clouds arose!
