But could this combat power and killing force defeat Martial Ancestor himself?
“It’s unfair, there’s no way to get through the entrance to the Ninth Layer of Heaven.”
“Right, if it’s not the ten strongest beings since the birth of the Spirit Realm, even the First Layer can’t be breached.”
“To be the strongest beings since the birth of the Spirit Realm, yet to fight against one’s own life imprint?”
“How can one win?”
All the Supreme Immortal Kings started discussing animatedly.
The opponent formed by the life imprint would not suffer the slightest depletion of combat power, being capable of using all the methods, abilities, talents, and divine skills that the original owner possessed.
That’s why the reaction of the Supreme Immortal Kings was so intense, for any powerful being, defeating an enemy was one thing, but defeating oneself?
How could one defeat oneself?
Moreover, the opponent formed by the life imprint had no emotions, only fighting instincts, which made them even more formidable.
Of course, since both had identical abilities and methods, it was almost impossible for the opponent to defeat Martial Ancestor, but it was also nearly impossible for Martial Ancestor to defeat the opponent.
“This Ninth Layer of Heaven really doesn’t want us to pass,” sighed the Chaotic Celestial King, looking up at the Martial Ancestor on the tenth layer.
….
The Tenth Layer.
Lin Yuan looked at the opponent on this layer.
Indistinguishable from himself, with the same aura, the same fluctuation of vital energy, and even faintly emitting the scent of the Inner World.
The only difference was that the opponent’s gaze was indifferent and cold, like a machine.
“This Spirit Realm…”
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly, although he had not actively integrated his life imprint into the Spirit Realm.
But as long as one had existed in the Spirit Realm and exerted themselves, reaching a certain level of strength, their life imprint would be automatically recorded by the Spirit Realm.
Lin Yuan stood there momentarily.
The condensed ‘Martial Ancestor’ made the first move.
These strong beings formed by life imprints had no emotions or thoughts, only one idea, which was to defeat Lin Yuan.
Boom!!
A terrifying aura pierced directly through the entrance of the previous nine layers and spread over the Eighth Layer of Heaven.
“So strong?”
“Martial Ancestor didn’t use much effort in the previous eight layers…”
The Supreme Immortal Kings felt a chill run down their spines and immediately began to resist with all their might.
On the tenth layer, even just the residual effects of an exchange between Martial Ancestor and ‘Martial Ancestor,’ after passing through nine layers and reaching the Eighth Layer of Heaven, were still like heaven and earth collapsing.
One could imagine.
If the battlefield had not been on the tenth layer but in the Eighth Layer of Heaven, probably the entire Eighth Layer of Heaven would be destroyed.

It might even affect the Seventh and Sixth Layer Heaven…
This was simply inconceivable.
Keep in mind, even with the fall of the Prehistoric Era, the Chaotic Celestial King and a host of other Supreme Immortal Kings fighting with their lives only affected the surface of the Spirit Realm.
As for the Nine Heavens… not even the First Layer of Heaven was affected.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
On the battlefield of the Tenth Layer, Lin Yuan and ‘Martial Ancestor’ exchanged hundreds of moves in an instant.
Martial Tao Cultivation System, numerous Powers of Creation, even that wisp of Primal Force that surpassed the higher Powers of Creation, the forces of the Inner World nearly hundreds of millions of miles around…
Any method that Lin Yuan possessed, the opponent possessed as well.
“This is troublesome…” Lin Yuan slightly furrowed his brows.
The opponent ‘Martial Ancestor,’ could be said to be strong, and yet not strong.
Lin Yuan felt it was not strong because the opponent was a replica of himself, and who in the world understood himself better than he did?
But in this situation, there was no way for the opponent ‘Martial Ancestor’ to defeat Lin Yuan, yet it was also difficult for Lin Yuan to defeat the opponent.
“Sadly, my strength is still too low…” Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
The life imprint replica at the entrance to the Ninth Layer of Heaven also had its limits.
For example, it definitely could not replicate a complete Supreme Being.
Just that Lin Yuan’s current strength couldn’t compare to the entire volume of the Spirit Realm, the Inner World nearly hundreds of millions of miles in radius, not even comparable to a Great Realm of the Spirit Realm, so replicating everything about Lin Yuan was quite easy.
“Should I try the Physical Body Divine Ability ‘Enhancement’?”
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
The Physical Body Divine Ability ‘Enhancement,’ was indeed the divine ability awakened by Lin Yuan’s body during this descent.
Once used, all of one’s own being—including the physical body, qi, blood, soul, and mind—would be enhanced tenfold.
Of course, it could only last for ten breaths, and after those ten breaths, Lin Yuan would enter a period of weakness.
Ever since he had awakened this Divine Skill, Lin Yuan had never tried it, as there was no need; none of the opponents he faced had ever pushed him to the extent of needing to use this Divine Skill.
Due to the side effects of the Divine Skill ‘Enhancement’, this Divine Skill could only be used as a last resort.
“What if the opponent has also replicated the Divine Skill ‘Enhancement’…” Lin Yuan looked at his opponent ‘Martial Ancestor’.
He then suddenly burst forth, using his left arm as a sacrifice, he crushed the opponent’s right arm.
Whoosh…
The Physical Body Divine Ability ‘Blood Rebirth’ automatically activated, and Lin Yuan’s left arm quickly regenerated.
Lin Yuan looked towards his opponent ‘Martial Ancestor’, and noticed that the opponent’s right arm was also rapidly recovering.
“Blood Rebirth has been replicated, presumably ‘Enhancement’ has been as well…” Lin Yuan immediately had a clear understanding.
He knew that once he used the Divine Skill ‘Enhancement’, the opponent would likely instantly use the ‘Enhancement’ Divine Skill as well.
Although this Divine Skill has the effect of increasing one’s own capabilities tenfold, if everyone is amplified, it equates to no amplification at all.
…
The Eighth Layer of Heaven, entrance to the Ninth Layer of Heaven.
Although the clash and slaughter between the two ‘Martial Ancestors’ affected the Eighth Layer of Heaven, with Supreme Immortal Kings mutually defending, they could still hold on for a while, unwilling to give up viewing the battle on the tenth layer.
The fight between the strongest beings since the birth of the Spirit Realm, perhaps after today, there would be no next time, all Supreme Immortal Kings would watch, even at the cost of their physical bodies.
“Although Lord Martial Ancestor is not at a disadvantage, he hasn’t gained any advantage either, dragging on like this will only lead to a deadlock…” spoke the Chaotic Celestial King in a low voice, even though the combat level of the two Martial Ancestors was exceedingly high, the basic advantage and disadvantage could still be discerned.
“Beyond man, there’s always another, beyond the heavens, there’s another sky, above the Ninth Layer of Heaven there are heavenly beings, but this Ninth Layer of Heaven, it’s practically unreachable, even the Martial Ancestor, the strongest being in history, is struggling so much, who else could ascend it?”
A Supreme Immortal King spoke in a disheartened tone, feeling that the Ninth Layer of Heaven he sought was nothing but an illusion.
“Beyond man, there’s always another, beyond the heavens, there’s another sky, above the Ninth Layer of Heaven there are heavenly beings…” the Chaotic Celestial King remained silent.
This saying had existed for who knows how long, even among the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, it extended into another meaning.
That is, beyond the strong, there are stronger ones, even for a Supreme Immortal King, invincibility is not guaranteed.
At this moment, using it here seemed quite appropriate, even for the historically strongest being, Martial Ancestor, who was blocked on the tenth layer.
Even if Martial Ancestor were able to surpass the tenth layer and enter the Ninth Layer of Heaven, perhaps he would meet even more formidable opponents.
…
The Tenth Layer.
Lin Yuan was still clashing with his opponent ‘Martial Ancestor’.
“To conquer the opponent, the only possibility is to use a method that he cannot replicate…” Lin Yuan thought calmly, yet his eyes were glowing.
“Unable to replicate…”
Lin Yuan looked at his opponent ‘Martial Ancestor’, “You may possess everything I have, but can you possess my… understanding?”
Lin Yuan’s Against-Heaven’s Understanding came from the Door to the Myriad Realms, and since even the Supreme Beings in the Spirit Realm could not replicate it, how could they replicate the Door to the Myriad Realms?
[Your understanding is against heaven, as you fight the opponent, you gradually discern the opponent’s weaknesses…]
In an instant, many vulnerabilities of the opponent Martial Ancestor appeared in Lin Yuan’s realization.
“Primal Force…”
Lin Yuan activated the power of the world, merging it with the Primal Force, which transcended higher creation powers, forming a terrifying strike that instantly penetrated his opponent ‘Martial Ancestor’.
With that, the battle ended.
The opponent Martial Ancestor stood there stunned.
His inner world began to collapse rapidly under Lin Yuan’s strike, and his physical body started to disintegrate into dust.
Crashing sounds…
The opponent on the Tenth Layer disappeared.
Lin Yuan stepped forward, vanishing from the Tenth Layer.
…
The Ninth Layer of Heaven.
Clouds billowed.
Endless and vast.
Lin Yuan stood alone on the peak of a mountain.
“They say there are always greater skies beyond the heavens, and greater people beyond men, above the Ninth Layer of Heaven there are heavenly beings…”
Lin Yuan looked around, all creatures and matters lay beneath his feet, standing alone on the mountain peak, overlooking as though in the vast world, he was alone.
“But where are the people?”
