The divine power contained the laws of heaven and earth. The immense impact caused the streaking fireball to rapidly deviate from its course, plummeting downward. Following Ming Qi's instructions, the Wu Xiang boy rapidly expanded the Supreme Diagram, preparing to receive the entire fireball.
After a decisive punch, Ming Qi swiftly launched a series of punches, one after another, each one striking swiftly. The surging force accelerated the fireball's descent, and in the blink of an eye, it was within striking distance of the unfolding Supreme Diagram.
But at this moment, the rapidly falling fireball suddenly trembled violently, then miraculously stopped falling, wobbled twice, and then rushed forward again.
"Trying to escape?"
Ming Qi would not let it go easily. He immediately activated his Primordial Wings to catch up, while simultaneously directing the Wu Xiang boy to follow below through his divine sense.
The Primordial Wings were noticeably faster, and soon caught up with the rapidly advancing fireball. Ming Qi repeated his old trick, striking again with his fists. After several blows, the fireball was once again knocked down.
Just as before, the fireball, though knocked down, abruptly stopped its descent upon contact with the Supreme Diagram, and then escaped once more.
After four or five such attempts, Ming Qi became furious. He felt this situation would have no end in sight. He immediately activated Star Attraction and unleashed the terrifyingly destructive Double Divine Strike.
The Double Divine Strike was Ming Qi's most powerful attack method yet. He intended to shatter the fireball with a single blow!
If he could shatter the fireball, the Axis of the World would reveal its true form.
Ming Qi left a dazzling afterimage in the air, plummeting like a cannonball, colliding with the fireball.
A deafening roar resounded like thunder, echoing for a hundred miles.
The fireball's blazing flames nearly singed off half of Ming Qi's hair, but the attack finally achieved its intended effect. The fireball, which had been attempting to soar again, ultimately failed. After swaying a few times in the air, it began to break apart, sending large, flaming fragments flying everywhere.
"Come back."
Seeing the fireball shattered, Ming Qi realized it was impossible to fit it into the Supreme Diagram. Summoning the Formless Boy back, he cast his gaze upon the rapidly shattering fireball.
The fireball, originally formed from the World Axis, was as large as a house. Now, fragments fell, revealing its core. Ming Qi peered closely and discovered it was a deep blue scroll.
The scroll was about a meter long, resembling a long scroll, but now rolled up. A deep blue divine aura permeated the scroll, creating a dreamlike feeling.
"Is this the true form of the World Axis?"
Seeing the World Axis reveal its true form, Ming Qi didn't hesitate, rushing forward and grabbing the scroll.
The moment he grasped the scroll, Ming Qi felt a buzzing in his head, as if he'd been struck by a club. Fortunately, the impact wasn't too strong. While it might surprise him, it wouldn't injure him.
Having grasped the World Axis, Ming Qi immediately activated his Primordial Wings to descend to the ground. Having achieved his goal, it was time to prepare for departure.
As Ming Qi descended, he noticed the space around him becoming unstable. Occasionally, space would tear and collide, different forces clashing against each other, even the starry sky began to waver.
Ignoring these thoughts, Ming Qi landed on the ground and carefully examined the scroll in his hand. He could sense a vast and boundless power permeating it, confirming that he had found the right place. This was the World Axis.
The World Axis connects the destiny of heaven and earth and holds crucial secrets for the Order World. While a single World Axis image alone isn't enough to glimpse the Order World's true mysteries, it's likely sufficient to determine the location of the Galactic Force.
At this moment, the ground began to slowly tremble. Clearly, after the World Axis was artificially restricted, cracks began to appear throughout the star field, causing unrest.
However, the star field was originally a lost secret realm, its five elements incomplete and its yin and yang unbalanced. It was destined for destruction. Even the existence of the World Axis couldn't change this fate. His removal of the World Axis merely accelerated the process.
With a casual movement, Ming Qi tore through space and vanished into the void.
It didn't take long for Ming Qi to return to the Great World of Tianhuang.
Upon his return, Ming Qi immediately sensed a difference: the world's fundamental power had been destroyed once again!
Landslides and tsunamis, the earth cracked and ripped apart. The sight was devastated, a dead silence, and a complete absence of life.
Clearly, during Ming Qi's absence, someone else had drained the world's primordial power!
Ming Qi now possessed the supreme artifact, the Ancient Book of Life and Death, and the Axis of Worlds, a power unknown to him. His combat prowess had greatly increased. Although he had yet to condense the divine seal and create a divine city, he was certain that ordinary gods would be no match for him.
"Let me see who it was!"
Ming Qi was furious. He had racked his brains to find a way to restore the Tianhuang primordial power, only to discover someone was so brazenly destroying it. This was a complete slap in the face.
Without hesitation, Ming Qi immediately began searching the entire Tianhuang world using the same method used to search star fields.
The Tianhuang world was much smaller than a star field, making the search much more time-consuming. After three days, he sensed a rapid drain of the world's primordial power. This wasn't a leak, but rather a deliberate extraction of it for personal use!
"He's simply tired of living!"
Ming Qi flew away in a rage. After flying some distance, he suddenly sensed a red glow emanating from one of the four remaining blood beads.
"It's truly a case of searching high and low for something, yet finding it effortlessly!"
It seemed the person stealing the world's essence was most likely one of the six who had besieged the Holy Flame Martial Emperor. If that were the case, there was no chance of his survival.
Not long after, Ming Qi flew over a roaring bay. He gazed at a massive whirlpool below, contemplating it for a moment. Then, with a single leap, he dove directly into the water.
His Martial God Realm cultivation allowed him to move freely underwater, unrestricted.
After entering the water, he dived nearly a thousand meters deeper and came upon a vast magic circle. At its center, a young man with red lips, golden eyes, and white hair was frantically draining the world's essence!
It was Wuji, summoned back from the Heavenly Sin Camp.
Ming Qi didn't recognize Wuji, but that didn't stop him from entering and killing him.
With a wave of his hand, a surge of divine power directly impacted the top of the magic circle, instantly crumbling it. Wuji, who had been concentrating on absorbing the essence of the world within the formation, suddenly opened his eyes, his golden eyes red and filled with murderous intent.
"Are you courting death?"
Wuji swiftly soared out, stopping one li away from Ming Qi.
Anyone who could easily break his magic circle must be no weakling. Wuji was arrogant, but he was not reckless. Since this person could confidently destroy his magic circle, he must be truly capable.
"I'm here to kill you."
