Leo couldn't stop smiling as his guardian statues worked hard. Because of them, Leo received new rewards for free.
However, the battle was far from over. Drones and unmanned jets still rushed down toward his domain like angry Karens swarming an innocent store manager.
A hail of beams and lasers hit Leo's store, pylon tower, and apartments. Two of three external defensive barriers shattered, leaving them only a thin layer of energy shields.
Leo was annoyed. He had every ability to kill every lifeform, but he couldn't find the right skill to eliminate the machines.
Not giving up, Leo searched his pocket universe system to find the right person with related skills. He sorted the shadow's roster by strength.
Then, a certain angel appeared on the list.

.
Leo deeply frowned as this man's name and photo annoyed him. He didn't know why, but his guts hated the black-winged angel.
'This guy looks exactly like Meowmeow. Their names also coincide… is that really a coincidence? I need to ask that pervert angel later. Tsk. I have no time for that. I need any skill that can be used in this situation!'
Leo glanced at one of the skills that Mao Miaomiao had – Karmic Dao of Space and Time.
He was interested in it. However, it might not be the answer in this situation. Also, the cultivation base of this man was alarming.
It took Leo several minutes to defeat Esen's shadow, who was a 12-galaxy deity. Moreover, this guy's cultivation base sounded stronger than hers. It might take a long time to defeat this shadow.
Despite the hesitation, Leo tried it anyway. After all, the pocket dantian belonged to him, and he couldn't be killed in real life if he lost.
'Show me what you can do, doctor. Who the hell are you?!'
Leo summoned Mao Miaomiao's shadow to fight.
DING
The shadow manifested in Leo's universe. The silhouette silently spread his black wings and transformed into a 500-kilometer-tall black phoenix. It flapped its wings and floated freely in the void. The beast glared at Leo, who was still standing on a planet.
Before Leo could initiate the fight, an explosion erupted inside Leo's stomach. Black flame gushed out from his eyes, ears, nostrils, mouth, and other orifices.
"…"
It was warm enough for Leo to sense a mild danger. He groaned in frustration and shoved his hand into his chest. Then, he pulled out a ball of black flame from his flesh.
This was the source of the explosion earlier. Leo didn't know how the phoenix stuffed this fireball inside him.
"Nice trick. But can you do this?"
Leo used one of the skills he copied from Beatrice. He shoved his hand into his chest again and grabbed one of his ribcages. He broke it and pulled it out.
The ribcage transformed into a transparent broadsword. It illuminated the dark universe in the pocket dantian.
The shadow phoenix flinched when he saw the transparent sword. It also summoned a flame katana.
The weapon floated around the phoenix for a moment to scan the battlefield. Then, it turned toward Leo and rose up.
RUMBLE
The black katana extended and expanded. Then, it swung down, aiming at Leo's grassland planet.
Leo imposed an IAI stance, which he had learned from Beatrice. He sheathed the sword and sliced the incoming giant blade.
CLANK
The small broadsword and the black flame blade contacted. The smaller one cleaved through the massive metal and sliced it into two!
The cut didn't stop there. Cutting through the void at 300 times the speed of light was a crescent wind blade, which expanded according to the distance it traveled.
SWUA
The energy blade cut one of the phoenix's wings. It reverted to a humanoid form. However, one of his arms was missing.
The shadow glanced at his missing arm and rubbed it. The lost arm regenerated, and he moved it around.
"Yeah, I figured."
"!!!"
Although no sound could travel in space, Leo's voice echoed in the pocket universe. The shadow turned around and found Leo floating in space.
Leo had teleported behind the shadow earlier, using Grim Reaper's phasing techniques. By the time Mao Miaomiao's shadow realized it, Leo was already in his attack range.
The transparent sword swung down.
The shadow opened his mouth and bellowed in a hoarse voice.
"TIME!"
CLICK-CLICK-CLICK
Leo suddenly felt sluggish. His movement drastically slowed and came to a pause. However, he could still move his eyeballs to look around.
On the other hand, the shadow sneered and adjusted his posture. He resummoned his katana and hacked Leo's neck.
CLANK
The katana hit Leo's nape, but it only managed to cut 5 millimeters into his flesh.
"!!!"
The shadow exerted more force. Unfortunately for him, he failed to dig it further.
"This is a new record. Congratulations! Nobody managed to give me such a deep wound. I'm stoked!"
Leo mustered his willpower and strength. He clenched his fist and broke free from the mysterious restraints. Then, he did what Jotaro usually did in anime.
"ORAORAORAORAORAORA!!"
A thousand fists barraged the shadow's face, chest, stomach, legs, arms, and groin simultaneously as if Leo could shoot his fists like a shotgun.
The clone widened his eyes in disbelief. His body slowly crumbled and disintegrated as he was pummeled so hard that his flesh and bones broke down into atoms.
Leo didn't have enough as the mysterious anger swelled in his heart. He reached out and pointed his palm toward the dust. Then, he activated one of Esen's magic.
Death Magic!
The spell was designed to attack a soul directly. The magic revolved around converting yin Qi into a black gas, which was hazardous to living beings and souls. As long as the black gas touched the target, the victim's soul would always perish if it was unprotected.
Black miasma erupted and surrounded Leo and the dust. It seeped into every atom of the shadow's dust, but the miasma ignored Leo.
A loud screech followed, but no one could hear it. In one of the participles of dust, the artificial soul of the shadow emerged and tried to escape.
Leo brightly smiled and swung his transparent sword. Again, he relied on Beatrice's death knight sword domain, which was capable of attacking anybody within the invisible dome.
The soul was beheaded while the miasma consumed it.
DING
<You have defeated Dr. Mao Miaomiao's shadow!>
<If you defeat Dr. Mao Miaomiao 999 more times at this difficulty, you can learn one of his skills!>
Leo brightly grinned and nodded in approval. It was easier than he had thought.
"I'm glad he's stupid. He's not the type to dodge any attack, I see."
There were many types of shadows in Leo's pocket dantian universes. Leo fought many death knights, Marc, and grim reapers in his free time to learn their skills, and they were the most annoying opponents.
Every time Leo fought Beatrice or her comrades, they dodged his attacks as if their lives depended on it. As a result, it took a long time to defeat one of them at a time.
On the other hand, Ivy and liches were stationary most of the time. They relied on teleportation magic and blinking techniques, but they couldn't dodge even basic attacks when they were caught.
Other cultivators also fell into the two prior categories. Situ Nantian, Hua Jiashan, and Han Hao had high agility and dexterity while Tang Xuan, Dongfang Mei, Xu Nuan, Han Meng, and Tiger Swordsman always tried to defend or block his attacks, which was futile.
Gao Yan, Yao Qiqi, and Jin Yong, on the other hand, were the balance type. They usually made a correct judgment when to dodge or defend. But in the end, none of them managed to cleanly dodge Leo's attacks when he put his mind to it.
Leo had enough for now. He opened his eyes in reality.
Only a second passed in the real world. Leo didn't miss anything dangerous.
Although Leo didn't manage to get a skill from Mao Miaomiao, he gained insight from the previous fight. He shoved his hand into his flesh and dug a ribcage out.
SWUA
The ribcage transformed into a transparent sword like what happened in the simulation mode.
Then, Leo activated Beatrice and Marc's domain powers at the same time. Two layers of dome expanded and covered the sky.
Beatrice's personal domain allowed Leo to cut anything inside the dome. As for Marc's domain, it multiplied the attacks he delivered. The Jojo fist barrage earlier in the simulation was also one of Marc's abilities.
"What if I combine the one-hit slash technique and the multiplier skill together?"
Leo smirked and tested it out. He swung the transparent sword down.
SWUA
SWUA
SWUA
As it was Leo's first time using the skills, only 46 drones and 16 unmanned jets were cut in half. However, ten thousand slashes only cut empty air.
Leo pouted as he felt bad. He retried one more time.
SWUA
SWUA
SWUA
It was worse than before. A total of 30 machines were broken while the rest missed the mark.
"Eh… Annoying. STAY STILL AND LET ME CUT YOU!!"
Leo swung his sword like a baseball bat. Every time he swung, battleships, jets, and drones fell from the sky.
.
.
Meanwhile, Esen pursed her lips as she watched her husband work. She was proud of him.
"Isn't that Beatrice's soul domain? The multi-hit domain is the same as Marc's too! Hehe, damn, geezer. You're secretly practicing my subordinates' daos, I see."
Esen didn't want to lose to him. She pointed her fingers at the countless militated corpses on the ground and shouted.
"DON'T EVER THINK DEATH IS THE END! ARISE, MY SLAVES!"
The fleshes of corpses mended and combined into new beings. 10,000 zombies and skeletons slowly stood on their feet and howled.
