Gao Wu: Others practice martial arts, but you cultivate immortality?

"You actually dared to come..."

"Why wouldn't I dare? Do you really think I'm afraid of you, you stray dog?" Under the light of the Yin-Yang order's explosion, Chu Yuan calmly activated the Xuan Yang Sword and the Xuan Turtle Armor.

He scoffed, "How profound is the Dao of Yin and Yang?"

You idiot, all you know how to do is blow things up! With a head as hard as a rock, no wonder Xi threw you in as a latrine lid!

He retorted sharply, "You're all talk and no action; you're just relying on a few treasures to protect yourself."

If you are not afraid of me, why don't you come and see my true form?

Chu Yuan scoffed, "If you've got the guts, come out here. I'll be waiting for you right here."

The Lord of Slaughter stood in the distance, looking wistful.

Things are definitely different now than they used to be;

Previously, in the territory of the Light Saint Clan, they had taken advantage of their home ground, chasing the two away and even causing them to self-destruct many treasures...

Although I did not possess the ruler again today...

Yet it was a genuine projection of a supreme being, and it couldn't do anything to Chu Yuan, who possessed a supreme treasure.

He knew that even if Chu Yuan possessed a supreme treasure, he shouldn't have been able to block this projection of his power.

The real reason is...

As expected, he inherited Xi's creation order!

A continuous lineage...

His lackey!

Although his understanding seems shallow and his application is quite clumsy;

But for the time being, his projected power really couldn't do anything to Chu Yuan...

"Plagiarizing others! Do you really think this is your own method?" Ni Xin hardened his heart, determined to teach Chu Yuan a lesson, even at the cost of losing this power projection!

The supreme ruler of humanity should have already noticed the commotion here; there's not much time left...

"You're getting anxious because you can't find it yourself?" Chu Yuan seemed as nonchalant as ever.

Just then, an extremely sinister wave swept in!

It bypassed the Xuan Yang Sword and landed directly on the Xuan Turtle Shell!

Chu Yuan finally frowned slightly, not because this method could harm him, but because... this fluctuation seemed to carry a mysterious charm, as if it wanted to transform living beings into something strange!

It seems that reversing the control over the Yin-Yang order is not so rudimentary after all...

Just as Chu Yuan was considering how much he was going to get hurt, a curse suddenly rang out!

"You dare touch him! Chu Yuan is someone I value! You're courting death!"

The newcomer flicked his sleeve, and the wave of energy that had attacked Chu Yuan vanished without a trace...

Chu Yuan, having survived the ordeal and still shaken, let out a long breath and looked at the newcomer.

He exclaimed in disbelief, "It's you!?"

If it wasn't Anjiang, who else could it be?

An Jiang, still dressed in a black robe, gave Chu Yuan a gentle smile;

"I told you to come find me on the front lines long ago, why are you only coming now?"

"I......"

An Jiang's ears twitched, and he raised his hand, saying, "Alright, no need to say more."

I'll deal with this scoundrel for you first!

He laughed defiantly, "An Jiang, have you been driven mad by Yi?!"

Chu Yuan picked up the conversation: "Your Excellency! Does your previous promise still stand?"

"You mean, you're specifying a supreme being, and I'll kill them for you?"

"That's right!" Chu Yuan pointed at Ni without hesitation: "I want him dead!"

It's not this projection....

I want his true form dead!

To Ni's surprise and anger, An Jiang actually fell into deep thought.

He had been corrupted by the first era for many years, and the essence of his soul had become a bizarre shape.

Just like the master among humans who refines the seeds of the bizarre.

These kinds of things have one thing in common... Although they are strange, they cannot sense Chu Yuan's attraction to them!

Perhaps it's because they still have bodies;

Perhaps it's because they are beings from this cosmic era...

However, Chu Yuan guessed it was the former, because Li Hong and the others inside the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, after refining the strange seed, also coveted his body.

The reason why Ni coveted Chu Yuan was simply because of the favor of the vast universe behind Chu Yuan;

To refine it into one's own inner world is tantamount to tearing another piece of flesh from the vast universe...

A secret telepathic message entered Chu Yuan's mind;

He knew they were talking, but he didn't know what they were talking about.

However, he didn't have much of a virtue in helping others achieve their goals;

Seeing that these two were in cahoots, it was impossible to eliminate Chu Yuan today;

He actually began to unleash his aura directly, attempting to give a detailed assessment of the supreme being...

Although An Jiang harbored resentment in his heart, he had no choice but to speed up the exchange.

How do I know you won't go back on your word after I fulfill my promise?

"A secret technique for signing contracts is possible!"

"Among you humans, those who easily grasp the essence of the information law can bypass the contract... it's not difficult."

"Then what do you say?"

"If you are willing to join us, then find a way to get to the Spirit-Slaying Formation."

At that time, I will not only eliminate the rebellious forces for you;

I'll also bestow upon you an opportunity... an opportunity powerful enough to elevate you to the supreme realm!

Chu Yuan simply couldn't believe it: "How could such an opportunity possibly exist!?"

"Whether it's true or false, you'll know when the time comes!" An Jiang stopped transmitting his voice and pointed a finger in the opposite direction;

Black smoke billowed and condensed into an ancient longsword that shot out!

Chu Yuan observed carefully and discovered that An Jiang still hadn't activated any order; it was merely a fusion of some laws, not yet reaching the threshold of true order...

But this method is also extremely mysterious;

The Yin-Yang order erodes upon it, but for a time it can only wear down its surface.

Amidst the violent tremors, Chu Yuan used the residual energy to retreat.

Then I saw a streak of multicolored aurora brush past my ear and penetrate into the center of the shockwave!

The five elements rotate and alternate in a generating cycle!

In no time at all, all the smoke and dust were wiped away...

"Are you two alright?" Hua nodded almost imperceptibly to Chu Yuan, then asked loudly.

The Lord of Slaughter then rushed over from a great distance;

"Greetings, Your Majesty! We are unharmed!"

But... how can they be allowed to come and go as they please within this outer perimeter?

Hua shook his head: "They paid a heavy price... There won't be a second time in the short term."

Since there's nothing else, let's go back.

Hua Zhizun left in a hurry, not giving the Lord of Slaughter a chance to speak again, leaving him with mixed feelings...

Something feels off... but I can't quite put my finger on what it is.

He hesitated before saying, "Chu Yuan... that..."

That mysterious supreme being... is he here to save you?

He said you're someone he values... what does that mean?

Chu Yuan's expression remained unchanged: "You actually believe such crude attempts to sow discord?"

You doubt me?

"Of course not! But..."

But that strange supreme being did indeed act on Chu Yuan's behalf, didn't he?

"Don't worry, I have my own plans..."
