The appearance of Venerable Yuan Shi's clone shocked the entire dominion. The eyes of Gongsun Yingxiong and the others who had just returned turned wet as they exclaimed in surprise.
"The guild master has not abandoned us! He has always been with us!" said Gongsun Yingxiong as he wiped his tears.
"Yes, he is merely visiting a different world to proclaim his hegemony there. However, his will still protects us," said a different expert.
As for the super experts at the other locations, they all wore pleased smiles. They knew that this unrivaled man was absolutely capable of creating a miracle. Even with only a remnant clone, he was still unrivaled.
Everywhere in the dominion, anyone with even a tiny bit of cultivation could sense the unrivaled will. All of them knelt down and exclaimed, "This is the venerable one, the protector of the dominion!"
Numerous cries and numerous prayers resounded all over the dominion. The emotions created an incorporeal amalgamation of willpower that attached itself to the clone. That incorporeal power was not something anyone could sense. Only those in the Nine Revolutions Realm understood that this was the power of faith and reverence Venerable Yuan Shi had obtained from the denizens of the dominion.
That was the benefit enjoyed by Venerable Yuan Shi after he had contributed massively to the dominion. Venerable Yuan Shi's clone gazed at the Divine Dominion City and the surrounding lands with burning eyes. A look of melancholy covered his eyes as though he was recollecting everything that had happened in the past.
However, Mo Langhan and the spear did not give him the chance to reminisce further. The torrent of attacks descended on the clone like a waterfall. The attack was so overwhelming it was as though a ferocious devil was descending to devour everything in existence.
If the attack was allowed to land on the city, the city would be blown out of the sky. In fact, even the dominion would be destroyed. That was the strength of those in the undefeatable realm. Venerable Yuan Shi raised his head and unhesitatingly sent his palm out.
The palm made of primal chaos energy formed an entire world and erased the incoming attack before crushing Mo Langhan's body. As for the spear, it was sent flying far away. All the Anti-Human Army members became frightened. They saw no hope in winning this fight.
"Since ancient times, the aliens have been the invaders. When will humanity be able to step into the Myriad Planet Field and occupy a major position there as well?" muttered Venerable Yuan Shi before sending a slap toward the retreating Anti-Human Army.
Before the palm even arrived, a portion of the army fainted from sheer terror. As for the super experts in the army, they fled with all they had, not daring to stay even one second longer.
Boom!
Countless warships and Anti-Human Army members were turned into powder. The terrifying attack caused all the experts of the dominion to exclaim in surprise.
"Truly worthy of being the strongest man in the dominion. Even a clone of his is so terrifyingly powerful," said Gong Chang'e with a look of adoration.
Beside her, Ling Ziruo agreed, "Lord venerable is truly unrivaled."
At the same time, the white-haired old immortal had the look of someone ashamed of his own inferiority. He had been cultivating hard for countless years in hopes of one day surpassing that man. Alas, even after so many years, at such an old age, he wasn't comparable to even that man's clone.
"Time is merciless," sighed the old immortal as he stroked his white beard.
As for Mo Dingtian and his people, their expressions turned unsightly. It almost seemed like they did not wish to see Venerable Yuan Shi appear. Venerable Yuan Shi's strength had reached a level nobody could compare with. He was able to destroy half the Anti-Human Army with only two slaps. The invaders were completely helpless before him.
And thus, the invaders hurriedly fled while cries resounded in the air. As for those in the Divine Dominion City, they started cheering.
"Lord guild master is unequaled!"
"Lord guild master is unequaled!"
Reverence filled their eyes. Nobody could win more respect from them than this person. Qin Hongyan had a helpless smile. He was happy the dominion was saved, but he and his great-grandson had not played any role in it. That man was like a massive mountain, forever looming above them, making it so that they could never raise their heads high.
As for Qin Jiu, he randomly yelled, "A day will come when I become as strong as him!"
He had completely forgotten the cowardly attitude he had displayed earlier. How could someone with his character step into the undefeatable realm? Venerable Yuan Shi did not kill everyone in the Anti-Human Army. After killing two thirds of them, he ignored the fleeing enemies. He then left the Divine Dominion City and started heading elsewhere.
Like a paramount emperor out on patrol, everywhere he reached, phenomena would appear from the heavens. An auspicious aura flooded the skies, and purple clouds appeared from the east. The scenes of his arrival were truly astonishing and breathtaking.
First, he traveled through the Central Region. Next, he went through the Eastern Pass. He then took a turn toward the Western Desert. Everywhere he went, countless humans knelt down before him.
"Long live lord venerable!"
"Lord venerable, the protector of our dominion!"
...
Looking at the masses, Venerable Yuan Shi had a look of regret as he muttered, "Humanity should always strive unremittingly. If you forever hope to receive protection from the strong, when will you be able to take your place among the strong races? May this invasion be a wake-up call to make everyone cultivate even harder. One day, humanity will be able to stand at the pinnacle of the myriad races."
Venerable Yuan Shi's words were akin to the sounds of heavy bells, entering the ears of every human in the dominion without fail. A seed to work hard was thus planted in humanity.
One young cultivator after another clenched their fists and vowed, "A day will come when I become as strong as Venerable Yuan Shi. I will even aim to surpass him!"
Venerable Yuan Shi did not say anything else. This was merely one of his willpower clones. The moment the clone was activated, it wouldn't stay standing for long.
When he arrived at Wumo Pass, Baili Xiongshi rushed out in his coffin and roared, "Are you here to stop me?"
"What a pity," said Venerable Yuan Shi as he easily saw right through the coffin. Looking at the sturdy figure within, he sighed.
"What do you mean?" questioned Baili Xiongshi resentfully.
"Originally, you had the highest hope of surpassing me. Alas, you ruined your own hope," said Venerable Yuan Shi. "You lack the heart of the undefeated."
"Bullshit!" howled Baili Xiongshi furiously.
Boundless primal chaos energy rushed out of the coffin and shot toward Venerable Yuan Shi.
"The alien invaders are here. If you have the courage to face them, you might still have a small chance to take that step," said Venerable Yuan Shi calmly.
Right that moment, a devil hand appeared from the boundless universe and grabbed the spear. Then, the hand tossed the spear back to the dominion.
