Chapter 445: Foundation Established (Three Updates, Please Vote)
From the few messages left by the Black Demon Sovereign.
Especially among the many methods left in the 'Daoist Repository,' Wu Yuan not only found the complete "Origin Ritual of the Beginning" but also found another supreme-level method, the "Origin Saint's Law."
This was left by the Origin True Saint.
Wu Yuan had already understood that the "Origin Ritual of the Beginning," with its four parts — Upper, Middle, Lower, and Ultimate, was essentially the foundational volume of the "Origin Saint's Law" created by the Origin True Saint.
"The 'Origin Saint's Law' is divided into four volumes: the Foundation Volume, the Star Monarch Volume, the Monarch Volume, and the True Saint Volume," Wu Yuan thought to himself. "And the 'Origin Ritual of the Beginning' is a kind of explosive secret technique similar to the 'Creation Divine Prohibition,' specifically designed for cultivation by upper immortals and gods who have not yet become immortals."
"So, in the eyes of the Origin True Saint, the 'Origin Ritual of the Beginning' is the most fundamental. If one cannot even cultivate the most fundamental, then they have no qualifications to cultivate the remaining three volumes."
Even if it's just a supreme inheritance with a few methods and a few treasures, it's still immensely beneficial to the Black Demon Sovereign.
However.
"The 'Origin Saint's Law' is too profound, and only a transcendent genius who comprehends the laws of time and space to the extreme and has a foundation comparable to the transcendent realm has a chance to cultivate it."
If they have the mark of the Ancestral Tower, the difficulty of cultivation is slightly lower.
Therefore, to better comprehend it, the Black Demon Sovereign used himself as the foundation to transform the foundational part of the "Origin Saint's Law" into the "Black Demon Blood Ritual," allowing countless ordinary cultivators to use it.
"The Black Demon Sovereign creating the 'Black Demon Blood Ritual' wasn't for the sake of his talented subordinates," Wu Yuan shook his head slightly. "I'm afraid it was to use invisible cause and effect to accumulate countless karma and murders on himself, so as to better comprehend the two great paths of cause and effect and slaughter."
Some strong cultivators want to sever cause and effect.
Some strong cultivators crave to have cause and effect added to them.
This was a certain speculation made by Wu Yuan based on some things left behind by the Black Demon Sovereign and the personality of the Black Demon Sovereign.
"If the 'Origin Ritual of the Beginning' is cultivated to perfection, it can unleash terrifying combat power, challenging transcendent realms, immortals, gods, and even fighting against star monarchs," Wu Yuan thought to himself. "And the last three volumes of the 'Origin Saint's Law' have similarly high cultivation difficulty, but their power is not so exaggerated."
The reason is simple.
As cultivation progresses, those powerful beings are almost all early-stage transcendent geniuses.
Who among them didn't have great opportunities?
For monarchs, many of them can contact supreme existences, many of them cultivate supreme methods similar to the "Origin Saint's Law," and even if the methods are weaker, they still belong to the same level, so the difference in strength between them won't be too extreme.
As for upper immortals and gods, let alone supreme methods, how many of them have the ability to cultivate methods at the monarch level?
"The 'Origin Saint's Law' is too profound. At least after crossing the Nine Calamities and becoming a star monarch or a monarch, there's hope of cultivating it," Wu Yuan shook his head.
The last three volumes also require a deep understanding of the dao and a high foundation.
So.
"I'll focus on successfully cultivating the second part of the 'Origin Ritual of the Beginning' for now," Wu Yuan immersed himself completely in the method.
The "Origin Ritual of the Beginning" essentially utilizes the power of the origin to unleash its power through the stars of the origin.
But it also requires the condensation of the origin runes.
To condense the runes, one must have a profound understanding of the laws of time and space. The so-called runes are essentially a variation of dao runes.
"Boom!"
Powerful waves emanated from Wu Yuan's body, intertwining with the fluctuations of time and space, impacting in all directions.
Even.
Wu Yuan could faintly feel the pain. To condense the runes, the immortal body must withstand even more powerful bursts of origin power.
"Once the second part of the 'Origin Ritual of the Beginning' is completed, my mana will be able to burst out with the power of the 'Sevenfold Celestial Immortal,' and my combat power will soar significantly," Wu Yuan felt eager.
External forces like the Eight Great Demons can't always be relied upon and ultimately have drawbacks.
One's own strength is fundamental.
The middle part can only unleash the power of one Celestial Immortal, but the power of the lower part jumps to the power of the Sevenfold Celestial Immortal. How terrifying is that?
Once it's unleashed, the pressure from such powerful divine power will naturally be extremely formidable for the immortal body.
A slight mistake would result in the collapse of the body and the dispersal of the Purple Mansion.
"Before entering the Black Demon Blood Cave, I only comprehended the true meaning of time and space to the second level. Cultivating the second part of the 'Origin Ritual of the Beginning' has many difficulties and bottlenecks that are hard to overcome," Wu Yuan slowly condensed the origin runes. "In these five to six hundred years, if I can break through to the fifth level of understanding of the true meaning of time and space, then cultivation will be much easier."
"And."
"My refining Qi avatar has already transformed its foundation to the extreme. Although it's just a First Heaven Immortal, it's actually comparable to many Fifth Heaven Immortals or Sixth Heaven Immortals, and its mana is vigorous, making it much easier to condense the origin runes." Wu Yuan initially thought that at least a Fourth Heaven Immortal would have a chance to cultivate the second part.
Now, however, he saw hope.
This is the benefit of a strong foundation.
With a higher understanding of the dao, comprehending and cultivating many secret techniques becomes remarkably efficient.
As time passed, year after year.
Hundreds of years went by quietly.
It's been thousands of years since the emergence of the Black Demon Blood Cave.
Wu Yuan's refining Qi avatar leisurely cultivated in the Black Demon Blood Cave.
...In the Qingling Great Realm, the Xia Mountain World.
In the sky of the world, combined with the vast and majestic world source, on the basis of the space previously opened up by Wu Yuan, a refining pill ground was reformed.
Wu Yuan's refining body avatar was meditating in this extremely high-level refining pill ground, continuing to analyze the mysteries of all things and spirits.
Analyzing the essence of all things and spirits is not Wu Yuan's goal; his intention is to continuously comprehend the Dao of creation using these mysteries.
After the second test in the Black Demon Blood Cave.
Wu Yuan's refining body avatar found a new path, which made his efficiency in comprehending the laws even higher.
So, even though there was no need to undergo further tests, the refining body avatar continued to analyze the essence of all things and spirits.
"Although the refining Qi avatar has transformed somewhat."
"But the refining body avatar's spirit transformation to the extreme actually greatly increases the efficiency of comprehension, making the gap even greater," Wu Yuan sighed with emotion.
It's not that the refining Qi avatar's comprehension efficiency is not fast enough, but that the refining body avatar is too exaggerated, too monstrous.
"At this rate of progress, I'm afraid that in another ten thousand years, my comprehension of the Dao of creation will reach the ninth level of true meaning," Wu Yuan muttered to himself.
Too fast!
But Wu Yuan wasn't too surprised. With a supreme spirit, a life path body, Dao imprints, combined with guidance from the True Saint's will... the combination of many factors makes it the most top-tier talent under the supreme level, with no flaws.
"When the refining body avatar emerges, it will surely shake all realms," Wu Yuan's refining body avatar smiled, full of anticipation.
Suddenly.
"Hmm? The refining Qi avatar, succeeded?" A hint of joy flashed in Wu Yuan's refining body avatar's eyes.
...
In the Black Demon Blood Cave, in the vast world of comprehension.
Wu Yuan's refining Qi avatar sat cross-legged on the giant jade platform, his eyes closed tightly, and strands of red light appeared all over his body.
It was the light of the Origin Divine Runes, already enveloping his entire body.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a surging and majestic breath of life began to soar from Wu Yuan's body. At this moment, the Purple Mansion in his body rushed, and the surging and majestic celestial power, at this moment, was continuously transformed into Origin Divine Power through the giant Origin Star, pouring into his body.
The divine power flowed into his body, permeating through his meridians to his internal organs, limbs, and so on.
Quickly, Wu Yuan's life breath rose from the original Sixth Heaven Immortal to the First Heaven Celestial Immortal.
This is just the beginning.
Second Heaven Celestial Immortal, Third Heaven Celestial Immortal, Fourth Heaven Celestial Immortal... Wu Yuan's life breath became stronger and stronger.
More and more terrifying.
"It's so difficult." Wu Yuan felt the pressure; he felt as if his body was about to collapse.
The gap was too large, and his body couldn't bear such a burst of divine power.
He could only barely support it.
Finally, when his life breath reached the Seventh Heaven Celestial Immortal, it stopped, reaching an unprecedented peak.
"Hoo!"
When he reached his limit, Wu Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling the surging and majestic divine power in his body. "What a powerful force... Is this the power that those star monarchs possess?"
The biggest gap is between the third to fourth, and the sixth to seventh celestial immortals.
The difference in power between the seventh and ninth layers of celestial immortals isn't as exaggerated.
"With such powerful abilities, it's no wonder those star lords, who clearly have a low understanding of the dao, can still unleash such formidable strength," Wu Yuan sighed with emotion.
Understanding the dao and treasures are important.
But the foundation of power is equally important.
Like the lords, with their overbearing and miraculous power, they can easily overturn heaven and earth with a flick, effortlessly destroying any extraordinary beings among the celestial immortals and deities.
"One must comprehend a lower-level law to harness the immense power of the origin of heaven and earth, condensing such a powerful immortal body," Wu Yuan whispered, "Now, I've achieved the same through the 'Genesis Ritual.'"
"With such powerful abilities, paired with my swordsmanship..." Wu Yuan's eyes gleamed.
His combat power soared significantly.
In comparison, Wu Yuan's nine primordial flying swords are now not advantageous; they're even somewhat ordinary.
After all, those who can threaten Wu Yuan's life are almost all star lords now.
The treasures owned by the star lords, even if they are just source bodies, are at least middle-grade immortal treasures.
"When I return to the Temporal Island, I must seize the time to transform all nine primordial flying swords into 'middle-grade immortal treasures.' By then, their power will be comparable to top-grade immortal treasures," Wu Yuan has figured out his next path of cultivation.
To plan ahead is his habit.
Once the primordial flying swords are transformed, combined with swordsmanship and the second part of the "Genesis Ritual."
Many combinations.
"By then, maybe I can compete with the star lords," Wu Yuan is somewhat looking forward to it.
...After mastering the second part, Wu Yuan naturally wouldn't stop. He attempted to cultivate the final part of the "Genesis Ritual."
But after several years of comprehension and cultivation, Wu Yuan gave up.
"The understanding of the dao is not enough," Wu Yuan frowned, "At least I need to reach the peak level of the star lords, and achieve the seventh level of true meaning in the temporal dao before attempting again, otherwise the progress is too slow."
Forced cultivation is too slow, and it's hard to make progress even after thousands of years.
Besides.
Wu Yuan also realized that even if he really cultivated the final part, and his power soared to the level of the foundation of the star lords, his current body might not be able to withstand such a terrifying impact.
"When I become a Sixth Heaven Immortal, with my extreme foundation, I estimate that I'll be comparable to a true celestial immortal," Wu Yuan pondered, "By then, my comprehension will be higher, and it won't be too late to try cultivating the final part."
For now, the second part of the "Genesis Ritual" is Wu Yuan's limit.
"The dao is the foundation."
"Has the selection of the Demon Army not ended yet?" Wu Yuan asked the Great Demon via communication, and the reply was that it would take decades more.
"Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal has broken through to the third and fourth areas?" When Wu Yuan received this news, he was also quite surprised.
A Celestial Immortal of the Sixth Heaven, who used to be quite ordinary, can reach this level in just a few hundred years.
It shows her potential.
"However, even with potential, it's ultimately futile." Wu Yuan shook his head lightly.
Such is the cruelty of the path of immortality.
Wu Yuan closed his eyes and continued to comprehend the "Spatial Nine Swords."
Although he has understood the fifth style, he still has a long way to go before he can fully comprehend it.
...
In the Temporal Immortal Realm, in a special temple where the lords of the dao realms gathered, more than ten lords gathered here.
"The inheritance test of the Black Demon has lasted for thousands of years."
"Still no results."
"Most of those Celestial Deities are stuck in the first three areas of the third test."
"For these Celestial Deities, comprehending the great dao is indeed somewhat difficult." Many lords knew some information about the Black Demon Blood Cave through their celestial deities.
"Now, the most dazzling ones, besides the Ming Sword who entered the eighth test early, are that Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal," said the Floating Moon Palace.
"Yes, a little girl, without a good lineage or guidance, can still surpass many star lords. She's indeed remarkable."
"She's quite good."
"If she can come to the Dao Realm in the future, she might be worth cultivating," these lords have extremely high insight and can see Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal's potential.
At least she has the qualifications of a star lord.
A lord? The probability of that is very low. In fact, among countless celestial deities, only one in a million can become a star lord.
"As for Ming Sword, he's been in the eighth test area for hundreds of years, and still no results?"
"It seems not."
"With Black Demon's temperament, if Ming Sword succeeded, he would have made a decision long ago."
"The inheritance of Black Demon has lasted for hundreds of years, which is also normal," many lords spoke one after another.
Over the years, their attention to the Black Demon Lord's inheritance hasn't diminished.
As they communicated...
In another dimension of the Temporal Immortal Realm.
"Nine Blood, is everything arranged?" A towering figure in purple robes sat cross-legged on the king's throne, overlooking the blood-robed figures below.
"Reporting to Lord Molang."
"According to your orders, everything is ready." The blood-robed figure respectfully said, "We have mobilized twelve half-step star lords, one hundred and sixty-two space lords, and over eight hundred peak star lord experts."
"They have all been secretly mobilized and gathered in the core area of the Snowlight Mistland... Once Ming Sword or any other inheritor comes out, they won't be able to escape."
"This is only a covert mobilization. If a large-scale mobilization is needed, we can mobilize ten times as many." The blood-robed figure said, "At present, the other eight major forces in the Dao Realm probably don't even know."
"No need to mobilize further."
"The strength of these star lords should be enough. As long as Ming Sword hasn't become a star lord, he shouldn't be able to escape," Lord Molang's voice was majestic, "But be cautious and prevent any leaks of information."
"Lord, rest assured."
The so-called space lords and half-step star lords are rare, limited to a single immortal kingdom, star domain, or under a single star lord's command.
But when a lord gives orders, the resources and number of experts they can mobilize are terrifying.
...
Years passed by.
Wu Yuan's Qi Refining Avatar, carrying his Law Avatar, has been cultivating in the enlightenment realm of the Black Demon Blood Cave.
Another hundred years passed.
"Hmm? Is everything arranged?" Wu Yuan received a transmission from the Great Demon while in seclusion.
He opened his eyes, with a single thought.
Whoosh!
Wu Yuan disappeared from the enlightenment realm and appeared in another core area of the Black Demon Blood Cave, the 'Demon Land.'
Inside the dim temple.
Wu Yuan, dressed in full battle armor, appeared out of thin air, intentionally presenting himself this way.
In the Black Demon Blood Cave, maintaining one's dignity is one of the ways to gain more trust from subordinates.
"Master." The tall figure of the Great Demon respectfully saluted.
Wu Yuan nodded. "Have all the divine crystals been collected?"
"Collected." The Great Demon said solemnly, "Subordinate was afraid that nine hundred billion divine crystals wouldn't be enough... So, I collected some more. The total value should be able to reach two trillion divine crystals."
Two trillion divine crystals? Wu Yuan was stunned.
This exceeded his expectations.
"Master, this is the limit of what can be gathered from various worlds within the Black Demon Blood Cave," the Great Demon said, "The treasures that can be exchanged for divine crystals are still quite precious to countless cultivators in the Demon Realm... If we search for more, it might affect the operation of the Demon Realm internally."
"Okay, I understand." Wu Yuan smiled. "When I become stronger in the future, I will certainly do my best to make the Black Demon Blood Cave even stronger."
Wu Yuan understood the Great Demon's intentions.
As the 'spirit' of the Black Demon Blood Cave, the Great Demon is not only extremely loyal to his master, but his instinct also drives him to want to make the Black Demon Blood Cave even stronger.
Phew!
Wu Yuan packed away dozens of storage rings delivered by the Great Demon, checking them one by one while listening to the Great Demon's detailed explanation.
Each storage ring was piled with mountains of divine crystal treasures.
The value was astonishing.
All were flawless.
"Two trillion divine crystals! The treasures in these dozens of storage rings alone could drive countless star lords crazy," Wu Yuan sighed inwardly. "Even star lords would be envious."
He was also quite pleased.
With such wealth, when he returned to the Temporal Island, he could exchange it for a large amount of precious materials, enabling the successful evolution of his nine life-bound flying swords.
There would still be billions of divine crystals left.
"Immortal treasures." Wu Yuan sensed the last storage ring with his divine sense, which contained hundreds of high-grade immortal treasures.
All the high-grade immortal treasures in the entire demon world had been plundered by the Great Demon.
"Soul, refine the nine high-grade immortal sword treasures." Wu Yuan quickly selected nine high-grade immortal sword treasures.
When exerting full force, with Wu Yuan's insight into the Dao and the latter part of the Origin Law Sacrifice, it wasn't too difficult for his soul to activate the nine high-grade immortal treasures.
Like star lords, the soul bodies rarely used high-grade immortal treasures because most of them lacked high enough insights into the Dao, causing excessive consumption of divine power when used.
"Master, it's time to control the Demon-Sealing Tablet," the Great Demon smiled. "Over these centuries, I have screened out more than forty people."
"They all have the potential to become star lords."
"They were chosen from millions of celestial deities," the Great Demon said solemnly.
"More than forty people all have the potential to become star lords?" Wu Yuan hesitated slightly. "I heard that after being controlled by soul imprints, their cultivation potential would decrease. Is that true?"
"Yes."
The Great Demon nodded. "On the path of cultivation, the most important thing is the heart of a strong cultivator. Only with a strong will can one overcome many obstacles and difficulties."
"The mind is unpredictable."
"For servants, their minds are as if burdened with additional shackles. Even though their insights into the Dao and foundations seem unchanged, under the invisible influence of the mind, their achievements will mostly be slightly lower," the Great Demon said solemnly.
Wu Yuan sighed inwardly, it was indeed the case.
For servants, everything revolved around their masters, lacking that will and desire, their achievements would naturally be lower.
"Master, you need not worry too much."
"Once they are controlled, if we cultivate them with all our might, bestow many powerful techniques upon them, and even give them some precious resources, what they gain will far exceed their past, and their achievements won't be much lower," the Great Demon said. "I hope Master will consider this carefully."
"Don't worry, I'm just feeling sentimental," Wu Yuan smiled. "Let's go."
Wu Yuan never claimed to be a good person.
The road ahead was unpredictable, and the ancestral tower loomed like a huge shadow overhead, ready to engulf everything at any moment.
So, on this struggling path of cultivation, Wu Yuan would do his best to strengthen himself.
Phew! Phew!
The Great Demon and Wu Yuan appeared simultaneously on the giant altar in that direction, the Demon-Sealing Tablet hovering above the altar.
"Master, please look." The Great Demon waved his hand.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, faint projections appeared in the surrounding dark void. In the projections, many celestial deities were anxiously waiting.
Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal, Gu Shou Star Lord, Hong Mo Star Lord, Xue Yao Star Lord... Familiar figures.
A total of forty-six people.
They were all waiting nervously.
"Master, let's begin," the Great Demon said.
"Okay." Wu Yuan nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping across the void, murmuring to himself, "Blame me if you want... But my choice won't change."
Hum~
Wu Yuan's divine sense merged into the Demon-Sealing Tablet. Through the Black Demon Blood Cave and the altar, he could harness a trace of the Demon-Sealing Tablet's power.
And this trace of power was terrifying enough for celestial deities.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Seemingly silent and invisible, but in reality, the Demon-Sealing Tablet, woven with black and red, has erupted with incredibly terrifying power, attacking the forty-six celestial deities.
...In a space within the Black Demon Blood Cave.
"I have passed through several tests in succession, the seventh test, and obtained twelve Black Demon Tokens." Gu Shou Star Lord's law avatar stood in this space, looking around vigilantly. "Is this the location of the eighth test?"
"Where is Ming Jian? Why don't I see him?"
He was somewhat puzzled.
In that instant.
"Hum~"
Silent and invisible, a terrifying and overbearing soul wave instantly invaded his upper dantian.
"Not good!" Gu Shou Star Lord's eyes flashed with fear as he sensed the danger.
He wanted to self-detonate, abandoning this law avatar.
Boom!
This terrifying force had already invaded Gu Shou Star Lord's main body through the invisible causal connection between the law avatar and the main body.
"Hum~"
Silently and invisibly, Gu Shou Star Lord had been completely controlled. His eyes were filled with reverence as he muttered to himself, "My master, Ming Jian."
...Almost at the same moment.
In the Black Demon Blood Cave, in dozens of special spaces, this scene was playing out one by one.
One by one, celestial deities, perhaps powerful in strength or possessing extraordinary talent.
But!
In front of the high-grade Dao artifact, the Demon-Sealing Tablet, none of these celestial deities could resist successfully; they were all instantly controlled.
Except for one space.
"No!"
"No!" Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal gritted her teeth, struggling frantically. She half-knelt on the ground, her eyes turning red as large beads of sweat dripped onto the ground.
She was still struggling to resist.
"I absolutely cannot be controlled by the soul imprint."
"Absolutely not!"
"I, Xiang Fei, would rather die than be controlled by the soul imprint. The Demon Lord's inheritance... It's a trap! It's a trap!" Madness flashed in Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal's eyes.
Boom!
Her body instantly burst apart, completely annihilated.
Faced with such an astonishing soul invasion, she chose to self-detonate directly.
...Above the Demon-Sealing Tablet.
"What a powerful will Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal has, what a strong determination," Wu Yuan exclaimed in amazement.
One by one, celestial deities were being controlled.
Even the three semi-step star lord powerhouses were directly controlled, like Xue Yao Star Lord, Gu Shou Star Lord, they didn't succeed in resisting.
But!
Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal struggled to break free from this soul invasion attack and directly self-detonated her law avatar.
"The will of a star lord level." The Great Demon also sighed beside him. "A celestial deity at the sixth stage, actually has such a strong Dao heart and will. No wonder she was so dazzling before."
"Master."
"This is why subordinates didn't choose star lords," the Great Demon said. "The Dao hearts and wills of star lord level cultivators are too powerful one by one. This Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal still wasn't controlled due to insufficient soul strength... If it were a true star lord, they would break free in an instant."
"Even if the lord hasn't fallen, it's not difficult to kill a star lord's soul with the soul, but to directly control a star lord, it takes all-out effort."
"Okay." Wu Yuan nodded. The stronger the Dao heart and will, the more difficult it was to control with the soul.
And the pride of the strong also made them unwilling to submit completely.
Like Wu Yuan himself, if he were to be controlled by the soul imprint, then he would rather choose death!
"Master, the main body of Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal is in the demon world. I had previously locked onto her main body's location. Should we capture and teleport her over?" The Great Demon said, "If the Demon-Sealing Tablet goes all out, sparing no cost, consuming more of its original power, and repeatedly attacking her main body, there is a fifty percent chance of successful control."
"Her Dao heart and will are good, but she's still not a true star lord, her soul strength isn't strong enough."
"But her potential is extremely astonishing," the Great Demon said solemnly. "Such talent has never appeared in the demon world before."
"No need."
Wu Yuan shook his head. "If the control fails, given her temperament, she might choose to self-detonate directly. The risk is too high."
The Great Demon was taken aback.
"I'll go see her." Wu Yuan smiled.
Swish, Wu Yuan disappeared in the air above the Demon-Sealing Tablet.
...In the demon world, among the fifty-five thousand great worlds, there were countless legends and mergings of various worlds.
In the Xiang Fei world, originally an inconspicuous world in the demon world, ruled by Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal, but in recent centuries, Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal's reputation had soared in the demon world.
Countless powerhouses speculated that Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal had the potential to become the successor to the Demon Lord, naturally attracting countless celestial deities.
Today.
In the eastern part of the Xiang Fei world, on the vast and broad lake, floated a magnificent palace, which was the residence of Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal.
Inside the palace.
"How could it be soul control? Isn't it supposed to be the eighth test?" Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal's main body stayed in the temple.
Her eyes were full of fear.
Even if the Dao heart was strong, encountering such a thing would cause panic for a while.
"Could it be that the entire inheritance of the Demon Lord is a conspiracy?" Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal tried to calm herself down.
She didn't run away.
Because, she knew in her heart that if the forbidden land of the Demon Lord really wanted to capture her, it would be effortless.
After all, she couldn't escape the demon world.
Suddenly.
"Hu!" The space slightly distorted, and a figure wearing black battle armor appeared out of thin air, with a powerful and majestic aura.
"Hmm?"
Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal suddenly stood up, looking at the figure in the void in shock. "You are... Ming Jian? How did you come here?"
She asked herself.
With the numerous formations she had set up, even a semi-step star lord powerhouse couldn't directly break in.
"The demon world is vast. I can reach anywhere with just a thought." Wu Yuan said indifferently. "Also, you should call me the Demon Lord."
Demon Lord?
Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal's pupils contracted slightly, and she instantly realized, "You have already obtained the Demon Lord's inheritance? Also, the soul invasion just now came from you?"
"Very smart," Wu Yuan nodded. "In fact, I obtained the inheritance hundreds of years ago."
Wu Yuan was not afraid of Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal leaking information.
These demon world powerhouses couldn't leave the Black Demon Blood Cave without his permission.
"Hundreds of years?" Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal was stunned. She had realized that all of this was a conspiracy.
All her previous efforts and struggles seemed like a joke.
"Ming Jian, what do you want?" Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal gritted her teeth.
"Submit to me," Wu Yuan looked down at Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal.
"Daydreaming," Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal almost growled, "Even if I die, I won't submit to you. I refuse to be controlled by your soul."
"I won't control your soul."
"On the contrary, I'll give you the best cultivation conditions," Wu Yuan smiled. "I'll do my best to help you become a star lord, and even a great monarch."
"A monarch is the pinnacle strength of the previous Demon Lord."
"Star Lord? Monarch?" Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal's pupils contracted. She wasn't foolish and gritted her teeth, "Aren't you afraid that my strength will surpass yours in the future?"
"Not afraid."
"If you have enough ability, you can naturally challenge me. As long as you win, I can serve you in turn," Wu Yuan smiled. "But unfortunately, you won't be able to do it."
"I can also promise that if you become a monarch in the future, I will set you free," Wu Yuan smiled. "But I believe that by then, you will still be willing to be my follower."
"I have only one requirement."
"Until your strength surpasses mine, you must be absolutely loyal to me," Wu Yuan looked down at Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal.
"What if I refuse?"
"You have no choice," Wu Yuan shook his head. "Either agree to me, and you'll still be yourself, just becoming my follower... If you refuse me, I will try to control your soul again. If I fail again, you will have no value to me, then you might as well die."
A blatant threat!
Now Wu Yuan had the power to threaten Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal.
After a while.
"I agree." Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal nodded heavily. She had figured it out and quickly made a vow.
"Greetings, Demon Lord." Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal bowed.
Hu, a token appeared directly in her palm.
At the same time, Wu Yuan disappeared on the spot.
"Demon Lord?" Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal was stunned, looking at the token in her hand.
"Hold this token, refine it, and you can mobilize a bit of the power of the demon world. You can display the strength of a star lord threshold within the demon world and command the various worlds of the demon world." Wu Yuan's voice sounded in her mind. "From now on, you are my ambassador in the demon world."
"Wander the demon world and spread my glory."
"At the same time, you also have the qualifications to enter the supreme sacred place of the demon world, the Daoist Treasury Realm, and the Enlightenment Realm."
"When you become a star lord in the future, you will have the qualifications to send avatars into the outside world to explore."
"Haha."
"I'm giving you the best cultivation conditions... I look forward to the day you challenge me, don't let me down." Wu Yuan's voice disappeared completely.
But Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal's heart surged with waves of shock.
She quickly refined the token.
Verified what Wu Yuan said, all were true, naturally making her even more surprised.
"Demon Lord?"
"Ming Jian?" Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal murmured to herself, "What kind of person are you?"
"But."
"I promise you, until I defeat you, I will be loyal to you." There was a glint in Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal's eyes.
...
In an instant, Wu Yuan returned directly to the Demon-Sealing Realm, and the Great Demon was still waiting here.
"Master, do you really have to be so good to this Xiang Fei Celestial Immortal?" The Great Demon couldn't help but ask, "She's just a little celestial immortal."
"She's different."
Wu Yuan smiled. "Perhaps, with enough conditions given to her, she could really cultivate into a monarch."
"The hope is very slim," the Great Demon shook his head. "Countless peerless talents have appeared throughout history, but most of them have stopped at the pinnacle of star lords. This Xiang Fei is not bad, but to become a monarch... difficult! Difficult! Difficult!"
"He even said three difficult words."
Wu Yuan also understood why, back when the Demon Lord devoted all his efforts to nurturing many star lords under him, no monarch was born.
It was indeed difficult to cultivate a monarch.
"There's always a glimmer of hope," Wu Yuan smiled.
"Yes, following the master's command," the Great Demon said helplessly. As a spirit, he only had the power to advise.
"Master, what about these forty-five?" The Great Demon pointed to the distance, where forty-five new names had appeared on the Demon-Sealing List.
Soul engraving.
Unable to break free again.
"For the strong from the demon world, everything remains the same. Give them a monarch inheritance," Wu Yuan said. "For the strong from the nine major forces of the Dao Realm, let them lay low for now, don't expose them yet. Just tell them that they failed the final inspection before the eighth test, and Ming Jian succeeded, so it won't affect the main body... Let their avatars and sources commit suicide."
"When I leave the Dao Realm, I'll have these Dao Realm strongmen return to the Demon-Sealing Realm."
"Yes," the Great Demon said.
Wu Yuan would leave the Dao Realm for at least tens of thousands of years, so there was no rush.
If Wu Yuan practiced in the Dao Realm for a long time, these secretly controlled Dao Realm strongmen would be very useful as hidden pieces.
But it was a pity.
If Wu Yuan left the Dao Realm in the future, it would be difficult to return. Therefore, leaving behind hidden pieces wouldn't make much sense.
"In the future."
"Through the Demon-Sealing List, I can completely control some strong individuals from the Thunder Feather Temple," Wu Yuan secretly pondered.
Ordinary soul control methods had significant flaws.
And rare artifacts like the Demon-Sealing List were unparalleled.
... After instructing and arranging dozens of celestial immortals and gods who were controlled by their souls one by one.
Wu Yuan and the Great Demon returned to the Demon Realm.
"Master."
"Greetings, Master." Eight demon star lords such as the Second Demon Star Lord and the Ninth Demon Star Lord were already waiting here.
All were avatars and sources.
"Master, this is the middle-grade Dao artifact 'Illusionary Demon River Boundary' controlled by me through refinement. It has attack power, is also considered a spatial artifact, and also has the ability to conceal aura. I have released the master's recognition. It's up to the master to refine it." The Second Demon Star Lord flipped his palm and took out a purple spherical treasure.
In the treasure, there was a vast river flowing faintly.
"Middle-grade Dao artifact?" Wu Yuan was slightly surprised. Such treasures were probably among the most precious treasures of the Second Demon.
"Master, the avatars and sources of the eight of us will hide in the Illusionary Demon River Boundary, sleeping in the river water on weekdays. In this way, even a monarch may not be able to sense our presence."
"Some probing and fate deduction methods also find it difficult to deduce our existence," the Ninth Demon Star Lord explained. "At critical moments, if the master encounters danger, we can intervene."
"Good." Wu Yuan nodded.
The avatars and sources of the eight demon generals entered the Illusionary Demon River Boundary, and Wu Yuan quickly put away the Illusionary Demon River Boundary and began preliminary refinement.
"From today onwards, there is another trump card," Wu Yuan smiled.
As for trump cards, the most important thing was to keep the enemy unaware.
If the enemy knew in advance and set up countermeasures, then the power of the trump card would be greatly weakened.
"In this way, as long as I don't encounter monarch-level strongmen or extremely extraordinary star lords, I have nothing to worry about," Wu Yuan was quite pleased.
The Qi refining avatar was not like the body refining avatar.
The possibility of being directly targeted by monarch-level experts was very low.
"Master, are you planning to leave the Demon-Sealing Realm?" the Great Demon asked.
"Yes," Wu Yuan said.
The training environment of the Black Demon Blood Cave was good, but the Temporal Island's ability to accept temporal inheritances was more important.
Moreover.
Wu Yuan still had to complete more temporal tasks to accumulate temporal points before he could accept the Dao Lord's inheritance.
"Well, to become a monarch, the master needs to hone and explore more," the Great Demon said. "However, currently, there are many Star Lords gathering in the Snowlight Mist Realm."
"There are about a thousand peak Star Lord experts, and many of them are Spatial Star Lords, waiting stealthily beside the exit."
"It seems that the major forces of the Dao Realm are mobilizing, lying in wait for the master," the Great Demon said.
"A thousand peak Star Lord experts?" Wu Yuan felt slightly surprised.
What a bold move.
"Can you find out which faction they belong to?" Wu Yuan asked. The nine major forces of the Dao Realm each had different monarchs behind them.
Being able to mobilize so many peak Star Lord experts undoubtedly meant that there was probably a monarch guiding them.
"It should be the Ten Thousand Waves Palace," the Great Demon said.
"The Ten Thousand Waves Palace? The force led by Monarch Mo Lang?" Wu Yuan frowned, as he had no contact with this force.
"Master."
"The Ten Thousand Waves Palace was the life and death enemy of our Black Demon Blood Cave in the past, so it's not surprising that the experts from the Ten Thousand Waves Palace are here," the Great Demon said. "That Monarch Mo Lang almost died at the hands of the Black Demon Lord back then."
"Oh?" Wu Yuan suddenly realized that there was such a history.
"Master, activating the grand formation earlier and moving tens of thousands of celestial immortals and gods to the Snowlight Mist Realm has already consumed most of the power of the Blood Cave formation. It will take a long time to activate it again," the Great Demon said. "However, if the master doesn't want to interact with them... I can easily send the master to the edge of the Snowlight Mist Realm."
"No need."
"Just a group of Star Lords," Wu Yuan said softly. "If they really want to trouble me... so be it."
"Send me out."
Actually, Wu Yuan wanted to obtain the 'Primordial Power'. After thousands of years in the Black Demon Blood Cave, the Primordial Power had been exhausted for refining the power of faith.
Even if this group of Star Lords didn't come knocking on his door, Wu Yuan still planned to seize the opportunity for a slaughter.
And now, this group of Star Lords had come to him.
"I've obtained the Black Demon Lord's inheritance. Even if I don't say it, those Dao Realm monarchs will probably guess it and target me," Wu Yuan's eyes were cold. "I have to kill them fiercely."
"Intimidating them is the only way to make them not dare to act recklessly."
"Otherwise, in the future, when I carry out temporal tasks, these monarchs will probably send strongmen to interfere constantly."
"It's better to establish dominance and slaughter them sooner rather than later," Wu Yuan thought to himself.
Swoosh!
The Great Demon sent Wu Yuan out of the Black Demon Blood Cave and returned to the core area of the Snowlight Mist Realm.
...
In the core area of the Snowlight Mist Realm, layers of perception formations had long been laid out in the vast void.
In the void, and even in the high-dimensional space 'Space Turbulence Layer', there were Space Star Lords waiting.
Swoosh!
The moment Wu Yuan appeared, he was immediately sensed.
"Ming Jian!"
"He's come out." Many strongmen from the Ten Thousand Waves Palace immediately sensed Wu Yuan's presence.

Chapter 446: Invincible Ming Sword (Seeking Monthly Votes)
"Quick, surround him."
"Please, many Space Star Lords, take action immediately, set up a grand formation, seal the Space Turbulence Layer, don't let the Ming Sword escape." The Star Lords who noticed Wu Yuan's appearance immediately transmitted messages to other Star Lord experts.
"By the command of the monarch."
"This Ming Sword entered the Eighth Test Ground of the Black Demon Lord's inheritance early... but now he's come out alive, and the other strongmen in the palace, both their avatars and true selves, have been destroyed."
"He must have seized the Black Demon Lord's inheritance." Several leading quasi-Star Monarchs immediately judged.
Over a thousand years.
Various information about the Black Demon Lord's inheritance had long been spread, along with many rumors.
Wu Yuan was the most talked about.
"Activate the formation!" A vast and majestic grand formation spread from the material space layer to the Space Turbulence Layer, covering the vast void and enveloping Wu Yuan, who had just appeared.
...In the Temporal Immortal Realm, in the grand temple belonging to one of the dimensions controlled by the Ten Thousand Waves Palace.
Nearly a hundred figures gathered here.
At the highest seat, sat the towering figure in purple robes, 'Monarch Mo Lang'.
Standing beside him was the Nine Blood Star Lord, responsible for intelligence in the Ten Thousand Waves Palace.
At this moment, in addition to the Nine Blood Star Lord, there were also figures emitting powerful auras.
"So many Star Lords?" The Nine Blood Star Lord was astonished.
"Greetings, Monarch." Nearly a hundred Star Lords respectfully saluted.
"Are you all prepared?" Monarch Mo Lang looked down at the many Star Lords.
"Reporting to the monarch." Among them, a figure covered in black scales with nine hoof-like claws said in a deep voice, "I have commanded many Star Lords to wait outside the Snowlight Mist Realm. Once they detect the movements of the Ming Sword, they can immediately take action."
"Fogshine Star Lord?" The Nine Blood Star Lord looked in shock at this exotic Star Lord.
The Fogshine Star Lord was definitely one of the top ten superpowers among the many Star Lords in the Ten Thousand Waves Palace.
Not only did his combat power reach the ninth level of the Star Lord, but he was also a Spatial Star Lord with a very high status.
In terms of status and strength, the Fogshine Star Lord was slightly higher than the Nine Blood Star Lord.
"Nine Blood, don't be surprised."
Monarch Mo Lang sat on the high throne, overlooking the many Star Lords under his command, his voice resounding: "I ordered you to mobilize many Star Lords, just as the first means."
"I am also worried that the Ming Sword obtained the Black Demon Lord's inheritance and has a way to escape."
"So, I have secretly mobilized some Star Lords, led by Fogshine, as the second means."
"With multiple measures in place, we must capture that Ming Sword." Monarch Mo Lang said calmly.
Just a few simple sentences, but they highlighted his confidence.
"Monarch's wisdom." The Nine Blood Star Lord was secretly shocked, feeling that Monarch Mo Lang really valued this matter, actually secretly mobilizing nearly a hundred Star Lords.
It must be noted that none of these Star Lords were easy to deal with; even the weakest among them was probably at the fourth level of the Star Lord.
"It's begun."
"Monarch, the Ming Sword is out." The Nine Blood Star Lord suddenly brightened his eyes. "Please, monarch, take a look."
He pointed to the void from afar.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a super-large void projection appeared in the temple, and Monarch Mo Lang and the many Star Lords in the temple couldn't help but look at the scene in the projection.
"Ming Sword."
"Being able to come out alive, he should have obtained the inheritance." Monarch Mo Lang's voice was indifferent. "The other celestial immortals and gods in my Ten Thousand Waves Palace, as well as my avatars and true selves, have all perished."
"With so many Star Lords working together, they should be able to capture him," Fogshine Star Lord said.
"Just an upper immortal."
For a moment, Monarch Mo Lang and the many Star Lords under his command focused on this battle.
...In the core area of the Snowlight Mist Realm.
Whoosh!
Chapter 446: The Invincible Ming Sword (Seeking Monthly Votes)
Wu Yuan suddenly appeared in the void, his perception spreading in all directions, immediately sensing a powerful formation enveloping him.
The space became extremely stable.
"A sealing formation? It even seals the Space Turbulence Layer?" Wu Yuan was slightly surprised.
The other side was indeed prepared.
"Master, there's an invisible suppression in the Snowlight Mist Realm, the Star Monarchs can't enter, and our eight Great Demon Generals can't act." The slightly seductive voice of the Second Demon Star Lord echoed in Wu Yuan's mind.
"Hmm, there's no need for you to act," Wu Yuan responded.
He wasn't in a hurry.
Even if he couldn't win, he could simply teleport back to the Black Demon Blood Cave with a single thought. Even the monarch would find it difficult to deal with the Black Demon Blood Cave, let alone a group of Star Monarchs.
"However."
"If you really want to force me back to the Black Demon Blood Cave, you'll have to see your strength." Wu Yuan stood tall in the void, his gaze sweeping over the appearing celestial immortals and gods.
In an instant, more than six hundred of them had appeared, densely packed and powerful, comparable to Snow Yao Star Lord and Red Demon Star Lord, at least peak Star Lord experts.
Hundreds of peak Star Lord experts spread out over millions to tens of millions of miles of space and quickly converged on Wu Yuan, intending to trap him.
Wu Yuan didn't move.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the end, about a thousand peak Star Lord experts, seemingly scattered but actually gathering into groups, faintly formed a formation, ready to unite and erupt at any moment.
These Star Lord experts were scattered all around, surrounding Wu Yuan, standing between hundreds of thousands and tens of millions of miles of void.
But many Star Lord experts didn't act rashly, just vigilantly watching Wu Yuan.
"Are you really going to block my way?" Wu Yuan's voice was cold, finally speaking up.
"Ming Sword."
"We're just following the orders of the monarch." Among the thousand peak Star Lord experts, a figure in white robes appeared, looking at Wu Yuan from afar, his voice echoing in the endless void.
Hum~
Countless light points converged, forming a towering figure in the void in an instant. He wore a purple robe, his aura vast and unfathomable. His figure was slightly illusory, but he looked down at Wu Yuan.
"Pay respects to the monarch." A thousand Star Lord experts simultaneously bowed respectfully, most of them showing reverence in their eyes.
"Monarch Mo Lang." Wu Yuan also bowed slightly in respect.
If it wasn't necessary, Wu Yuan didn't want to directly offend the monarch.
"Ming Sword."
"Congratulations on obtaining the inheritance of the Black Demon Lord," Monarch Mo Lang's majestic voice echoed in Wu Yuan's mind.
Wu Yuan listened quietly.
"I have no grievances with you. I am happy for you for obtaining the inheritance of the Black Demon Lord," Monarch Mo Lang said, "But, there are deep grudges between me and the Black Demon Lord... You should know that."
"I have some understanding," Wu Yuan said.
"My request is simple. Swear to kill the Great Demon and promise never to seek revenge against my Ten Thousand Waves Palace. If you can do that, I will let you go," Monarch Mo Lang looked down at Wu Yuan. "But to kill the Great Demon? It's difficult to comply with."
"Do you want to defy me?"
The shadow of Monarch Mo Lang's incarnation flickered with cold light. "Bound by the command of the Lord, I cannot directly act against you... but I can sense that this is your true self."
"Are you not afraid of perishing?" Monarch Mo Lang stared at Wu Yuan. "The Great Demon must die!"
Wu Yuan's heart trembled!
Indeed, he couldn't underestimate the monarch. Even across endless time and space, he was still seen through.
"Do the monarch and the Great Demon have grievances?" Wu Yuan frowned. "The Great Demon is just a spiritual entity."
"A spiritual entity?" Monarch Mo Lang's voice was cold. "As long as he's alive, I won't rest."
"I'll ask you one last time, are you willing?"
"Unwilling." Wu Yuan replied resolutely. He had a stubborn nature; the more unwilling he was, the less he would yield.
"Hope, your strength matches your stubbornness," Lord Mo Lang's voice was cold.
Boom!
His avatar dissipated with a thunderous roar.
In the next moment, it seemed they received a command.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" In the surrounding void, three figures instantly transformed into streams of light, charging towards Wu Yuan.
They instantly turned into towering figures, their aura vast and endless, their speed terrifying.
"Three quasi-Star Lords."
"All of them are body-refining masters."
"They should be able to capture Ming Jian in one fell swoop." Thousands of Star Masters stood in the void, watching from afar.
Outside, many space Star Lords maintained a large-scale 'sealing array'.
"Three peak Star Lords?"
"No! It's not!"
"That one should be Lord Wei Jian, with his iconic bald head." Wu Yuan recognized one of the three powerful attackers.
Before coming out, among the dozens of heavenly immortals and gods enslaved by him, two were from Wan Lang Palace.
Naturally, he had obtained a lot of information about the strong figures of Wan Lang Palace, including Lord Wei Jian.
Quasi-Star Lord powerhouse!
Being able to join forces with Lord Wei Jian, the other two must not be weak.
"Three quasi-Star Lords? They move with such a lineup from the start, quite respecting of me, but unfortunately..." Wu Yuan's original body didn't even move.
But the Dharma body, vaguely merged with his original body, moved.
He directly unleashed the second part of the "Originating Dharma Sacrifice". Instantly, the life aura of the Dharma body soared, from Triple Heavenly Immortal to Sixth Heavenly Immortal... directly ascending to Seventh Heavenly Immortal.
At the same time.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Around Wu Yuan's Dharma body, nine flying swords appeared, each emitting terrifying sword intentions, with countless patterns on the surface... Intermediate grade Immortal artifacts.
Nine intermediate-grade Immortal artifacts.
With Wu Yuan's profound understanding of Dao, and manipulating them with Seventh Heavenly Immortal power, it wasn't difficult.
"Formation?"
"Hope, can you withstand my Sword Domain." Wu Yuan muttered to himself, a killing intent flashing in his eyes. The nine intermediate-grade Immortal swords that were originally surrounding him erupted completely.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The nine intermediate-grade Immortal swords, like nine Milky Ways, instantly left terrifying sword marks in the sealed void.
The sword marks intertwined with each other.
Like a giant net, it instantly enveloped millions of miles of void, with sword qi crisscrossing.
It completely shrouded Lord Wei Jian and the other three quasi-Star Lord powerhouses charging over.
"Kill!"
Wu Yuan stood in the void, pointing from afar. Only to see three of the nine great Immortal swords splitting off, each attacking one quasi-Star Lord powerhouse.
The nine great Immortal swords formed a sword array. Under normal circumstances, only three Immortal swords could be freely manipulated.
The other six Immortal swords were the foundation of the array, maintaining the ability to suppress and restrain over a large area.
"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"
The three Immortal swords danced, their sword light cutting through the sky, causing ripples to appear in the extremely stable void.
Bright and beautiful.
But this scene made all the Star Lords in the entire void change their colors.
In terms of realm, these Star Lords were only a step away from Star Monarchs, so naturally, they could feel the terrifying power of these sword lights.
Moreover.
Even in the Temporal Immortal Realm, those Star Monarchs couldn't perceive it, but Lord Mo Lang, who was originally confident sitting on his throne, also changed his expression.
As a monarch, even across endless time and space, he could still remotely sense the battle in the Snow Light Mist Realm.
What kind of existence is a monarch?
Naturally, he could sense the power of Wu Yuan's sword.
"The Sword of Time... the 'Temporal Nine Swords' created by the Dao Master, it's the fourth move," Lord Mo Lang quickly judged, "The fourth move is probably the most perfect level."
The Temporal Nine Swords, each move has many levels.
And the 'fourth move' displayed by Wu Yuan at this moment was definitely the highest level, so flawless.
... "Not good!"
"Something's wrong."
"The life aura of this Ming Jian, and this sword technique." Wei Jian and the other three great powerhouses, as Ninth Level Divine Beings, were immensely powerful, and each had their own special means to unleash the strength of quasi-Star Monarchs.
So, they dared to be the first to attack Wu Yuan.
But when the vast Sword Domain enveloped them, the expressions of these three great powerhouses changed.
Under the suppression of the Sword Domain, their speed sharply decreased.
Then, they saw three sword lights shining in the vast Sword Domain... ripples appeared in the void one after another, but these three sword lights seemed to leave no trace.
In the instant the sword lights lit up, the hearts of the three great powerhouses trembled uncontrollably. Immediately after, the three sword lights each assaulted them.
Swift to the extreme.
"No!"
"Block it."
"Kill!" Wei Jian and the other three great powerhouses, after all, were extraordinary. In their shock and anger, they instinctively unleashed their strongest techniques to meet the attack.
"Pong~" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Either their weapons almost slipped from their hands, or their bodies trembled violently as if about to explode. The three quasi-Star Lord powerhouses were thrown out like three cannonballs at the same time.
"This... how is this possible! Just a single Immortal sword, not even a sword formation, and I can't resist it? Does this Ming Jian intend to possess the strength of a Star Monarch?" Wei Jian screamed inwardly.
He couldn't believe it.
In the terrifying sword light, there was an astonishing impact force, causing his divine body to suffer heavy injuries, and his divine power was rapidly depleting as it repaired his divine body.
Divine beings were powerful, but if their divine power was exhausted, they would die too.
... In the blink of an eye.
The three quasi-Star Lord powerhouses were directly blasted away by a strand of sword light, and the entire void seemed to fall silent for a moment.
The thousands of Star Lords standing in the void were all shocked by this scene.
An Immortal.
Instantly defeating three quasi-Star Lord powerhouses, what kind of monster was this after all!
"Divine beings are indeed hard to kill."
The experts of Wan Lang Palace felt incredulous, but Wu Yuan felt it was only natural. Without any hesitation, he pointed from afar again, pouring his divine power, "Go!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three sword lights once again tore through the sky, attacking Wei Jian and the others, intending to completely kill them.

PS: Four thousand words, one update, just one update today.
My wife started experiencing pain in her lower left abdomen yesterday. At first, we thought it was just fatigue and rest would suffice, but today the pain got worse and worse, tears started flowing. We immediately took her to the hospital, where she underwent a bunch of tests in the afternoon and received anti-inflammatory injections in the evening. Fortunately, the test results were okay, it should be pain caused by pneumonia, and she needs to receive anti-inflammatory injections for five consecutive days. Everyone, take care of your health too!
Chapter 447: Shaking the Dao Realm (Four Updates Requesting Monthly Votes)
Three Immortal swords moved within the Sword Domain, reaching extreme speeds.
They attacked.
"Clang!" "Clang!"
"Clang!" Wei Jian and the other three quasi-Star Lord powerhouses exerted all their strength to resist.
As the two sides clashed, even under the suppression of the Sword Domain, the shockwaves still impacted millions of miles around, shaking the void.
However, the terrifying power of those strands of sword light still pushed the three great powerhouses back step by step.
Wei Jian and the others were at risk of losing their defense and facing complete defeat.
Divine beings were adept at close combat, but if their weapons were blasted away and they lost their treasures like shields and weapons, their ability to withstand attacks weakened. Relying solely on their battle armor and divine bodies, they couldn't hold on for too long.
"Escape!"
"Hurry, run." Wei Jian urgently transmitted his voice, and the other two Star Lords also wanted to flee.
However, the Sword Domain formed by the other six Immortal swords was terrifyingly oppressive and restrictive, making it difficult for the three great powerhouses to break free for a while.
How fierce was the battle between these high-level experts?
It can be said that without external assistance, even if Wei Jian and the other two separated and fled, at least one or two of them would fall, and defeat was imminent.
"Quick, form a formation."
"Attack with full force!" Nine-Blood Star Lord, as the commander of the core area of the Snow Light Mist Realm, immediately issued orders through the Temporal Immortal Realm, "The power of the Ming Jian is very strong... With just Wei Jian and the others, there is no hope of capturing the Ming Jian."
Gathering thousands of Star Lords was not for solo fights.
If they fought as individuals, even a Star Lord could slaughter tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Star Lords without difficulty.
But if they could unite, hundreds of Star Lords would be enough to counter a Star Lord.
"Yes!"
"Formations." Numerous peak Star Lord experts who had already gathered from various parts of the void and vaguely formed the momentum of a formation immediately began to move.
"Whoosh~"
On one side of the void, with a quasi-Star Lord powerhouse at its core and dozens of peak Star Lord experts extending from it, they all emitted layers of fiery light.
In an instant, a huge fireball with a diameter of over a million miles formed in the void, with an extremely high temperature that distorted the space, completely protecting the dozens of previous experts, its imposing aura overwhelming!
The terrifying power of this fireball made Wu Yuan furrow his brows slightly.
It was called a fireball.
In reality, it was a thousand times, ten thousand times more terrifying than an ordinary star in the endless starry sky.
It must be noted that even Immortals and Gods dared to enter the stars in the sky at will. With full force, they could destroy a star hundreds of times in a row.
But at this moment, the flame formed by dozens of Star Lords exuded a hint of power that could kill Immortals and Gods.
"The Heavenly Fire Formation?" Wu Yuan murmured to himself.
With his extremely high vision now, he had some understanding of some powerful formations in the Dao Realm.
This was a powerful Immortal-grade battle formation formed by thirty-six strong experts.
In theory, the more people, the more terrifying the power of the formation formed, but on the other hand, the more people, the more loopholes in the formation, and the easier it was to be attacked.
After all, the strengths of the formation experts were uneven and their minds varied.
Especially as cultivation progressed, the differences between the strong became greater, making it harder to unite.
Therefore, for Immortals, forming a battle formation was often with nine or eighteen people, and reaching thirty-six people was extremely rare.
The usual limit for a battle formation was fifty-five people.
And the Gods were not good at forming formations, so the number of people forming a battle formation was usually much smaller, and their strength was naturally weaker.
Because of this.
The Demon Suppression List was considered the best among Dao artifacts. In its most perfect state, it could merge five hundred and fifty Star Monarchs into one, forming the Ten Thousand Demon Formation with endless power.
Of course, the premise was that all the Star Monarchs had to be in harmony with the will of the Demon Suppression List, leaving a trace of their soul on the Demon Suppression List.
At this moment, as the Heavenly Fire Formation formed.
"Buzz~" "Buzz~" "Buzz~" Silently, in this vast void, hundreds of Star Lords surrounding Wu Yuan faintly formed extremely powerful battle formations.
The 'Heavenly Fire Formation', skilled in attack.
The 'Five Elements Formation', skilled in defense.
The 'True Realm River Formation', skilled in entrapment.
Nearly twenty formations, each with overwhelming power, seemed like nearly twenty super experts joining forces to besiege Wu Yuan.
Especially nine of these formations, all led by quasi-Star Lord experts of the Qi Refinement lineage, were even more terrifying.
Among the twelve quasi-Star Lord experts, three were Gods, and nine were Immortals.
These formations were the confidence of the Nine-Blood Star Lord to capture Wu Yuan in one fell swoop.
Slow to speak, but in the moment when the three quasi-Star Lord experts were in danger, numerous formations converged.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Although Wu Yuan revealed formidable strength, the many experts from the Ten Thousand Waves Palace remained confident. After forming the formations, they immediately flew to attack Wu Yuan.
"Boom!"
The Heavenly Fire Formation, with the strongest overall power and best attack capability, surged like a star, spanning millions of miles in the void, rolling and crushing towards Wu Yuan's Sword Domain.
One quasi-Star Lord and thirty-five peak Star Lord experts, all Immortals.
The formidable power of the formation they formed was astonishing.
In terms of attack, it almost bridged the huge gap between Star Lords and quasi-Star Lords, approaching the level of a Star Lord.
"Condense!"
Controlling the Sword Domain, Wu Yuan chose to confront the Heavenly Fire Formation head-on. The Sword Domain spread across millions of miles, with sword energy vast and boundless.
At this moment.
The Great Demons and the Eight Great Demon Generals were secretly observing the battle.
Numerous Star Lords in formations from the Ten Thousand Waves Palace were watching from afar.
In the Temporal Immortal Realm, the Monarch of the Endless Waves and his many Star Lords were also observing the battle.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The earth-shattering explosion, the Heavenly Fire Formation's overwhelming power, endless flames incinerating the void, causing the Sword Domain to collapse at the slightest touch.
"Good."
"That Ming Jian couldn't hold up after all." This scene filled many Star Lords from the Ten Thousand Waves Palace with joy and excitement.
"What a formidable formation, disrupting the void." Wu Yuan, however, remained calm. With a thought, the three mid-grade Immortal swords, previously used for offense, immediately merged into the Sword Domain. The nine swords transformed and immediately displayed the fifth form of the Space-Time Nine Swords - Void Disturbance.
The nine flying swords intertwined, leaving endless sword marks in the void.
In an instant, it seemed as if the heavens were torn apart.
"Swoosh!" "Swoosh!"
As the sword lights intertwined, the power of the Sword Domain surged. Waves of sword lights fell on the Heavenly Fire Formation, and the massive formation began to collapse.
The outcome was clear!
However, while the Heavenly Fire Formation was skilled in attack, it was also extremely resilient. Its defense was far superior to that of quasi-Star Lords, and it could barely hold on.
But under Wu Yuan's full force, the three trapped quasi-Star Lord experts were unlucky.
"No!"
"Damn it, how could the power of the Sword Domain's sword light be so strong?" Wei Jian and the others couldn't believe it, struggling desperately.
This time, without an Immortal sword specifically targeting them, the many sword lights generated within the Sword Domain completely overwhelmed the three quasi-Star Lord experts.
Those strands of sword light had reached the level of quasi-Star Lords in power.
In an instant, it was as if dozens of peers were besieging them. How could Wei Jian and the others withstand it?
"Boom!"
"Bang!" "Boom!" In the blink of an eye, sword lights danced, and three powerful Heavenly Gods, each reaching the quasi-Star Lord level, were completely annihilated.
Leaving behind numerous treasures.
"So much Primordial Energy." Wu Yuan murmured to himself, as the blood-mist-like Primordial Energy from the slain quasi-Star Lord experts flowed into his Upper Dantian Palace like a tide from the Black Tower.
Exactly what Wu Yuan urgently needed.
"Just killed three, and there's so much blood mist. What if I kill dozens more?" Wu Yuan's gaze fell on the Heavenly Fire Formation in the distance.
..."Impressive!"
"The intertwining of space and time, the master's swordsmanship has become extremely exquisite." The demons in the Black Demon Blood Cave, watching the Sword Domain displayed by Wu Yuan on the light screen projection, exclaimed in admiration.
"This one sword from the master, it's almost at our level." The short Nine Demon Star Lord sighed, "In terms of power and subtlety, the master's swordsmanship is inferior to ours, but it excels in strangeness, merging space and time, making it difficult to defend against."
"The Sword of Space and Time." The other demon generals chimed in.
Their avatars and Source Origins followed Wu Yuan, but their true selves remained in the Black Demon Blood Cave.
At first, they were somewhat worried, but now they had let go of their concerns.
"There are too many enemies."
"So many formations."
"The master's power is still too weak. Even if he uses the Black Demon Blood Sacrifice, it's still far from enough." The eight demon generals exchanged words, their gazes sharp.
..."Such a Sword Domain."
"So powerful!"
"Wei Jian and the others, all three of them died in the blink of an eye?" Many Star Lords in the Temporal Immortal Realm changed their expressions.
Although they couldn't perceive the subtlety and power of the swordsmanship, the fact that three quasi-Star Lords were instantly killed, and the Heavenly Fire Formation was overwhelmed, couldn't be faked.
"The Fifth Form?" Mo Lang, the ruler of the Endless Waves, sat high on his throne, his eyes cold. He recognized the intricacies of the Sword Domain.
But his heart sank.
Being able to unleash the Fifth Form, and so proficiently at that, indicated that Wu Yuan's understanding of the Dao had reached near the pinnacle of the Star Lord level.
Combined with the seventh level of a Heavenly Immortal's power, its might had reached a terrifying level.
"Master Yan Yu, immediately lead your 'True Realm River Formation' and rescue the Heavenly Fire Formation." However, the Nine-Blood Star Lord was extremely anxious, directing from afar, "Trap Ming Jian, entangle him. His power won't last long."
Among the three major formations, the True Realm River Formation was the best at trapping and binding, and the most resilient!
Many formations had already begun to move.
Led by the Nine-Blood Star Lord, the nearest formation to Wu Yuan surged forward like a mighty river.
True Realm River Formation!
"Trap him."
As Yan Yu, under the Nine-Blood Star Lord's command, led the formation to attack the Sword Domain, intending to relieve the pressure on the Heavenly Fire Formation.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Two formations simultaneously attacked, instantly putting immense pressure on the Sword Domain, while even more formations were rapidly approaching.
"Relying solely on avatars, it's not enough." Wu Yuan's eyes were cold as he swept over the formations roaring towards him in the void.
In terms of power.
Wu Yuan's avatar surpassed any single formation, but when ants swarmed an elephant, numbers mattered.
Moreover, although Wu Yuan had reached the extreme foundation, he was ultimately only a Heavenly Immortal. Even with the Black Demon Blood Sacrifice, he couldn't sustain it for long.
Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!
Wu Yuan's Qi Refinement Avatar raised his hand, and the nine ancestral flying swords converged, forming a nearly transparent sword of space and time.
With mana infused, the divine sword revealed endless sharpness, sword energy traversing through millions of miles of void.
The direction pointed by the tip of the sword changed the expressions of hundreds of Star Lords along its path.
They even felt a trembling sensation in their souls.
"Kill!" Wu Yuan saw the True Realm River Formation, which was surging like a river and pressing against him with all its might, and realized that it would be difficult for the Sword Domain's sword light to shake this formation.
He waved his palm, and the Sword of Space and Time stabbed out.
Nine ancestral flying swords.
Although they all seemed to be low-grade immortal treasures, in Wu Yuan's hands, they were much more terrifying than middle-grade immortal treasures.
The divine soul of Wu Yuan's Qi Refinement Avatar was much stronger than his physical body.
Fully exerting.
This was the strongest outburst of Wu Yuan's Qi Refinement Avatar.
"Swoosh!"
In the blink of an eye, the void within millions of miles flashed and distorted as if space folded over itself! No, in an instant, the Sword Domain and the entire void returned to calmness, as if nothing had happened.
But.
That extremely tenacious True Realm River Formation, known as the best at trapping and binding enemies below the Star Lord level, was like a river cut off by a towering mountain.
The entire formation collapsed with a rumble.
And the 'Yan Yu Star Lord', who was originally in the center of the formation, along with three other Star Lords, were instantly annihilated by this terrifying and swift sword light.
"No!"
"Quick, escape."
"How did his sword become so fast?"
"It's definitely at the Star Lord level." More than thirty Star Lords who were previously covered by the formations revealed themselves, completely panicked, and fled madly.
However.
Previously, Wei Jian and the others, as quasi-Star Lords at the level of Body Refiners, couldn't withstand the slicing power of the Sword Domain's sword light.
Let alone this group of Qi Refiners?
"Pfft!"
"Swoosh!"
"Pong~" Strands of sword light whistled, all condensed by the Sword Domain, sweeping through the void, easily slaughtering one peak Star Lord after another.
In the blink of an eye, more than twenty Star Lords fell.
Just then.
"Pfft!"
In the sky and earth, another dazzling and endless light flashed, and the Heavenly Fire Formation, which had been struggling to hold on, was instantly pierced through, completely collapsing.
Still, the ancestral Sword of Space and Time.
Still, just one sword.
Caused a powerful formation to collapse.
"Escape!"
The dozens of Star Lords inside the Heavenly Fire Formation trembled in their hearts, fleeing frantically in all directions.
"Kill!"
Wu Yuan's Qi Refinement Avatar manipulated a divine sword to kill the enemy, while his physical body exerted all its strength to maintain the operation of the Sword Domain. The nine ancestral flying swords danced, unleashing sharp sword lights, chasing and killing fleeing Star Lords one by one.
The Sword Domain, fundamentally a formation of swordsmanship, is mainly used to restrain, suppress opponents, or stabilize space to prevent attacks from higher dimensions.
But when the gap in strength becomes extreme, every strand of sword light automatically generated by the Sword Domain contains terrifying power.
With the full eruption of Wu Yuan's physical body and Qi Refinement Avatar, they had both reached the level of Star Lords.
Equivalent to two Star Lords working in perfect harmony.
Naturally, easily slaughtering this group of Star Lords.
"No!"
"This Ming Sword is clearly just a Heavenly Immortal."
"Too strong, the intelligence was wrong." These Star Lords wanted to flee, but facing those terrifying sword lights, they could resist at most two or three swords before being slain.
Moreover.
There was also a Sword of Space and Time manipulated by the Qi Refinement Avatar of Wu Yuan, touching it meant death for these Star Lords.
In less than a breath.
Two formations, seventy-two peak Star Lord experts, were all wiped out!
...In the Time-Space Immortal Realm, it had become silent, with hundreds of Star Lords shocked to see this scene.
Even though those Star Lords who fell only lost their physical and divine soul.
But it was still extremely frightening.
All of this was achieved by just a Heavenly Immortal! No matter how monstrous he was, he was still just a Heavenly Immortal.
"This shouldn't be."
"While the power of his Sword Domain is strong, it's still somewhat understandable, but how did his attacks suddenly soar to such terrifying heights?" Nine Blood Star Lord stared, extremely anxious.
But he didn't know.
Wu Yuan could easily find flaws in each formation through insight into space and time, and the Sword of Space and Time moved at extreme speed, leaving each formation no time to make up for or switch its formation nodes.
Most importantly, Wu Yuan's ancestral flying swords possessed astonishing power, making the eruption attack of his Qi Refinement Avatar far superior to his physical body.
One strike, one kill!
If Wu Yuan's physical body's strength was fully unleashed, it would only reach the threshold of the first level of the Star Lord.
But the eruption of his Qi Refinement Avatar was approaching the second level of the Star Lord.
"The gap in strength is too great to withstand."
"Even the True Realm River Formation was pierced through by one sword. This is the toughest formation. How else can we besiege?" Nine Blood Star Lord was extremely anxious.
When the gap in strength becomes so great, the number loses its meaning.
"A Heavenly Immortal bursting out with the power of a Star Lord? In the history of my Dao Realm, there have only been two instances, but they were both the strongest geniuses."
"If it fails...how will the Sovereign view me?" Nine Blood Star Lord was secretly anxious.
Before this, he believed he was prepared enough.
After all, before entering the Black Demon Blood Cave, Wu Yuan had only burst out with the peak strength of a Star Lord.
Normally, it was extremely difficult, even for a monstrous genius, to cross from the peak of a Star Lord to the level of a Star Lord.
But no matter how much Nine Blood Star Lord didn't believe it.
Facts were facts.
"Nine Blood." In the silent temple, the voice of the Sovereign resounded, echoing in the temple.
The voice was neither joyful nor sad.
"Sovereign." Nine Blood Star Lord quickly saluted.
"Order the retreat. The first resort has failed. With only these Star Lords, it's impossible to defeat Ming Sword again." The Sovereign said indifferently, "Continuing to fight will only be courting death."
As a Sovereign.
His vision was beyond compare, and with just one glance, he could see that even if the remaining hundreds of Star Lords rushed up, it would only result in their deaths.
"Yes, sir!"
..."Extraordinary."
"The master's strength has definitely reached the level of a Star Lord, comparable to the Sovereign when he was a Supreme God." Inside the Black Demon Blood Cave, the watching Greater Demons and Eight Great Demon Generals were extremely excited.
Wu Yuan's eruption was too terrifying.
In their speculation, Wu Yuan must have cultivated the "Black Demon Blood Sacrifice," but such a formidable technique also required sufficient strength to unleash its power.
Regardless.
A Heavenly Immortal bursting out with the power of a Star Lord, this fact couldn't be faked, which was enough to be dazzling.
Even formations close to the level of a Star Lord were pierced through and destroyed with just one move.
Moreover, Wu Yuan had only cultivated for a little over two thousand years.
"When the Sovereign was still a Supreme God, there was no such formidable technique as the 'Black Demon Blood Sacrifice.' Even at his peak, he only reached the strength of a Star Lord."
"That was based on the Sovereign's insight into the Dao."
"The master relies on powerful secret techniques to have such strength, but his cultivation time is extremely short. After cultivating for hundreds of thousands of years, he will surely shine brighter than the Sovereign did back then." The Greater Demons and Eight Great Demon Generals were quite expectant.
They were awaiting the passage of long years.
They were waiting for the day when they could once again follow a powerful master and conquer the heavens and earth.
And Wu Yuan had already revealed this potential.
"Hmm, the strongmen from the Ten Thousand Wave Palace have started to retreat." The Second Demon Star Lord suddenly spoke.
..."Retreat!"
"Escape, run for your lives." Those formations directly collapsed.
Dozens of Star Lords inside the formations turned into streaks of light and dashed towards the distant void.
Although forming a formation could increase their speed, in the eyes of these Star Lords, their target was too large. Once chased by Wu Yuan, a single sword could pierce through a formation, followed by the Sword Domain's slaughter, causing dozens to fall in an instant.
And fleeing separately.
With hundreds of Star Lords, Wu Yuan could only 'slowly' chase after them one by one, making the killing slower.
This way, the hopes of other Star Lords for survival would be greater.
Although the participating Star Lords were all divine avatars, they also carried many treasures with them.
And once a divine avatar fell, the price paid was not small.
Who would be willing to suffer such losses?
"Space formation, oppression." Nine Blood Star Lord ordered again, and immediately, ripples appeared in the void.
The vast and expansive formation that covered billions of miles of void began to shrink, and nearly a hundred space Star Lords appeared.
They were scattered throughout the void, maintaining the massive formation that covered billions of miles of void.
This super large-scale formation, its role was the simplest sealing, with a high tolerance, so it could accommodate a large number of powerful beings working together.
But without the ability to jointly defend or attack like a formation.
"Hum~"
"Boom!" Waves of invisible spatial oppression swept over, acting on Wu Yuan, slowing down his speed.
"Spatial oppression? Targeted at me?"
"Daring to make many formations disperse? It's practically seeking death!" Wu Yuan's eyes were ice-cold, to the extreme.
His temper, nicely put, was about avenging grudges.
If spoken harshly, it was about never forgetting grudges, striking without warning.
The Ten Thousand Wave Palace dared to hunt him.
Naturally, Wu Yuan wouldn't show mercy.
If these Star Lords from the Ten Thousand Wave Palace didn't disband the formations, Wu Yuan could only unite his divine avatar and physical body to kill the enemy. After all, the attack power of the divine avatar was not enough to quickly break through a formation.
However, these Star Lords from the Ten Thousand Wave Palace dared to disperse the formations?
"Boom!"
"Boom!" Originally, there was only one figure of Wu Yuan, but it instantly split into two.
Two Wu Yuans, one formed a powerful Sword Domain, and the other swept through the void with the Sword of Space and Time.
Each went in a different direction, killing a large number of Star Lords who were fleeing in all directions.
Then, Wu Yuan's Qi Refinement Avatar and physical body both turned into eighteen real shadows.
With the power of "Moonlight Shadow," they easily broke free from the spatial oppression.
Too fast.
Under Wu Yuan's full eruption, although he couldn't penetrate high-dimensional space, under the acceleration of time, he easily erupted to 'ten times the speed of light,' which was several times faster than the speed of other Star Lords.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Sword lights flickered, cutting through the vast sky.
One by one, Star Lords fell.
Regardless of the strength of the Celestial Immortals, even those at the level of half-step Star Lords.
All fell to a single sword.
The vitality of the Heavenly Gods was strong, usually enduring two or three swords, surviving a little longer.
"The oppression of the spatial formation has no effect on him at all?" The nearly a hundred space Star Lords looked at each other in dismay.
They only felt extremely headache-inducing, Wu Yuan's revealed strength was simply flawless.
"So terrifying speed."
"The slaughter is too fast." These crazily fleeing Star Lords were completely frightened.
One companion after another fell.
Whoever replaced them would feel extremely anxious and terrified.
"What, two Ming Swords? His Qi Refinement Avatar and physical body are both here? No wonder the strength he erupted with was so terrifying." Nine Blood Star Lord was equally shocked.
...In the void.
Kill!
Kill!
Wu Yuan's Qi Refinement Avatar and physical body attacked separately, killing with unparalleled pleasure, venting the long-held anger in his heart.
Want to besiege me?
Want to disturb me?
Then try to see if your strength is enough.
Those not strong enough will all die.
Sword Qi filled the air, those sword lights sweeping through the void made the Star Lords of the Ten Thousand Wave Palace tremble in fear.
"Ming Sword!"
"You've won this battle, but you've incurred such a great enmity with my Ten Thousand Wave Palace. You will regret it in the future."
"Don't think that just because you're a member of the Space-Time Island, you can't be dealt with by us."
"I will watch you fall." Before falling, each Star Lord transmitted their furious roar to Wu Yuan.
The death of the divine avatars was also a big loss for them.
"Me, dead?"
"Today, my divine avatar is right here. If you have the ability, come and kill me, Ten Thousand Wave Palace." Wu Yuan said coldly, killing crazily.
Finally.
Dozens of breaths passed.
Out of more than eight hundred participating Star Lords, fewer than a hundred escaped the range of the spatial confinement formation.
The other more than seven hundred Star Lords.
All were slaughtered by Wu Yuan.
The immortal tools, treasures, and storage treasures scattered throughout the void were all confiscated by Wu Yuan's Qi Refinement Avatar and physical body.
Although there were two trillion divine crystals sent by the Greater Demons.
But even a mosquito's meat was still meat.
The treasures left by hundreds of Star Lords' divine avatars combined were worth at least ten billion divine crystals.
"Escape."
"Go!" Many space Star Lords outside the range of the spatial confinement formation immediately carried the large group of fleeing Star Lords and quickly merged into the chaotic spatial streams, fleeing frantically.
The entire void quieted down.
"Hoo!"
"They've all escaped?" Wu Yuan stood in the void, no longer continuing the pursuit.
Although, with his current understanding of the Dao, limited by his mana, he still couldn't enter the void layer.
But in the chaotic spatial streams, he could already achieve 'the speed of light,' almost surpassing all space Star Lords.
Even Star Lords, for the most part, were slower than Wu Yuan when traveling in high-dimensional space.
So, if Wu Yuan wanted to continue the pursuit, before these space Star Lords completely escaped, he could probably kill about a dozen more.
However.
"The mana consumption is too great." Wu Yuan muttered to himself, the consecutive full-force eruptions of slaughter for dozens of breaths, coupled with the casting of the second part of the "Primordial Law Sacrifice," consumed too much mana.
The Qi Refinement Avatar was slightly better, with much less consumption in controlling the Flying Sword of the divine avatar, and about thirty percent of mana remaining.
But the physical body, the mana was even less, with only about ten percent remaining.
Although he could retreat to the Black Demon Blood Cave, Wu Yuan had his own pride and didn't want to do so.
"Got to be careful."
