The sequence is too involutional, luckily I am too.

Chapter 179 Killing the Saint, Death Descends!

The terrifying pressure of the Dragon King swept across the entire Primordial Sanctuary like a tsunami, the air currents were compressed and made to produce a muffled roar, and even the sky showed a faint distortion.

Whether they were the extraordinary beings in the Tribunal or the remaining followers of the Evil God, they were all utterly terrified by the oppressive aura emanating from the ancient Dragon King. Their legs buckled and they all knelt on the ground, their foreheads touching the earth. They didn't even have the courage to look up and peek, and their whole bodies trembled uncontrollably.

As for the puppet saint who was closest to Lu Yan, he was so oppressed that his bones creaked and his face was filled with extreme despair.

He never imagined that he, a Sequence 4 Saint, would be driven to such a desperate situation, without even the right to escape.

Before he could struggle any further, Lu Yan, who had transformed into a giant dragon, mobilized all his power, gathering the dragon power of the Dragon King's true form, the holy light of the Giant Card, his own inner fire, and the power of the Blood Wedge Seal hidden in his bloodline into his mouth.

The next instant, he opened his mouth and spat out four completely different beams of light that suddenly intertwined, transforming into a world-destroying composite dragon breath. With the power to incinerate everything, it instantly enveloped the puppet saint and the nearly one hundred puppets he had thrown out.

The golden dragon flames, carrying temperatures of tens of thousands of degrees, exploded the moment they touched the puppet, easily tearing through its defenses and incinerating it into charred powder.

The silver holy light, like a purifying force, quickly penetrated into the remaining puppets, completely eliminating the evil spirit's contamination and causing the puppets to instantly lose their vitality.

The crimson seal acted like an invisible shackle, tightly binding the puppet saint's extraordinary power, making his body stiff and leaving him without the strength to even activate his magic.

The most deadly thing was that cluster of white heart flame, which was Lu Yan's own primordial heart flame, and now he was controlling it, slowly letting it fall onto the puppet saint.

The main puppets of the Puppet Saints had already been destroyed by Xue Jiansheng, and the remaining puppets were also easily destroyed.

He could only watch helplessly as the dragon's breath landed on him, powerless to resist.

In an instant, white flames shot up from the puppet saint's body, like an erupting volcano, the flames soaring into the sky and turning half the sky a fiery white.

The negative emotions such as anger, fear, and greed that had been stirred up by the Seven Emotions Demon had now all turned into the best fuel for the Heart Fire. His own despair and fear pushed the power of the Heart Fire to the extreme, scorching his body and soul.

But Lu Yan did not stop there. With a thought, a materialized secret magic book quietly appeared in front of him. As the pages turned, he casually tossed flowers of seven-colored light towards the puppet saint.

Secret Technique: Indulgence!

Amplification - Enhanced Spellcasting!

The seven-colored flower burst into bloom the moment it touched the puppet saint, and a strange and powerful force surged into his body, completely detonating all his suppressed emotions.

The range of the Heart Fire surged again, and the scorching heat swept in all directions, even affecting the people fighting in the Divine Tree Palace. This caused Xue Jiansheng and his daughter, along with the three saints, to pause and look in the direction of the flames.

But this intense burning did not last long. A moment later, the towering white flames quietly extinguished, as if the earth-shattering attack was just an illusion.

Only a charred body slowly fell from the sky, its body already lifeless; it was the puppet saint.

The Holy Disciple of the Mysterious Saint, who was comparable to Sequence 4, was actually killed head-on by Lu Yan, a newcomer who had just been promoted to Sequence 5!

A series of panel prompts flashed before Lu Yan's eyes, but he had no intention of checking them. He remained in his Dragon King form, immersed in the insights brought about by the powerful force he had just experienced.

The perfect fusion of the four powers, the synergy between secret arts and divinity, and the superposition of the Giant Card and the Dragon King's bloodline allowed him to vaguely touch upon a new direction on the path to transcendence.

He seemed to understand that his future path lay in this "integration and breakthrough".

At the Divine Tree Palace, Xue Jiansheng, who was engaged in a battle with three saints, caught sight of this scene again. His amazement deepened, and his tone was filled with disbelief.

"Good heavens, this kid actually killed a saint! That's even more outrageous than when I advanced to Sequence 5!"

Even though he had already reached the peak of Sequence 4, he couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart when facing that cluster of white heart flames, and a subconscious urge to avoid it arose.

No one would have imagined that such a terrifying attack would come from a little guy who had just advanced to Sequence 5!

However, Xue Jiansheng did not lower his guard because of this. Instead, he made a decisive move, abandoning his opponent who was currently engaged in combat, and his figure was like a streak of light as he sped towards Lu Yan's direction.

He knew better than anyone that the Holy Shrine Disciples were far beyond the reach of ordinary superhumans.

Their soul imprints conceal extremely terrifying and treacherous divine intentions, which could trigger catastrophic disasters if not handled carefully.

According to the ancient records of the Tribunal, there was once a chief judge of the Sun Path who exhausted his life's cultivation and burned his life force to kill a Shadow Serpent Saint. However, just as he was about to die, he was corrupted by the evil divine will remaining in the Saint's soul and eventually became the new Shadow Serpent Saint, turning around and slaughtering his own colleagues.

Although the will of the evil god would be greatly weakened under the shadow of the Judgment Sky, Lu Yan had just experienced a fierce battle and his aura had not yet calmed down, so his condition was obviously not good.

If the will of the evil god were to take advantage of the situation and complete its erosion, the consequences would be unimaginable, something no one wants to see.

However, Xue Jiansheng was a step too slow. Just as he moved, strands of puppet threads, as thin as hair and gleaming with a dark luster, suddenly emerged from the charred corpse of the puppet saint, darting about like venomous snakes, heading straight for Lu Yan's face.

"It's a divine artifact formed from the authority of a treacherous god!"

Xue Jiansheng's eyes sharpened, his heart tightened, and he immediately unleashed his extraordinary power, his movements becoming even faster, as if he wanted to reach Lu Yan's side instantly to intercept him.

Lu Yan remained standing still, neither dodging nor avoiding, calmly watching the puppet thread fly towards him, without the slightest panic in his expression.

Just as the puppet's silk threads were about to touch his robes, the jet-black threads vanished into thin air, as if they had never existed, leaving not even a trace of the eerie aura behind.

[The power of the Demon God's authority has been discovered; it has been recovered and purified.]

[Successfully purified and recovered, obtained Mithril Rare Item: Boundary Fragment (God)!]

【Boundary-Severing Threads: Forged from the power of the Puppet God, rumored to be able to sever space and control puppets; Characteristics: Indestructible, incomparably sharp, can be fused with other wondrous objects to amplify their power.】

"Only Mithril grade?"

Lu Yan raised an eyebrow, his tone tinged with a hint of astonishment. He had originally thought that the strange object formed from the power of the Demon God would be at least at the level of refined gold.

"That's true. It seems that this puppet god itself is only at the Sequence 3 level. With just this wisp of residual authority, it naturally cannot reach the adamantite level. It is estimated that all of its authority must be collected to condense an adamantite level artifact."

Lu Yan pondered to himself, barely managing to convince himself, and then with a thought, he directly fused the Boundary Severing Silk with the Thousand Slashes in his hand.

The next instant, the silver sliver of the boundary appeared out of thin air, coiling around the end of the Thousand Cuts hilt like a serpent. It was slender and lustrous, like a delicate ribbon, which neither affected the grip of the sword nor hindered the sharpness of the blade.

"Lu Yan, are you alright?"

Xue Jiansheng finally arrived at this moment. He carefully scanned Lu Yan and saw that he was unharmed and his breathing was not completely calm, but he was still composed. His eyes were full of surprise.

He clearly saw with his own eyes that the puppet thread touched Lu Yan, but the next second, the aura of the puppet god completely dissipated, as if it had never existed.

"I'm sorry, Master, my sequence ability is somewhat special and I can't go into details."

Lu Yan gave a wry smile and offered no further explanation.

Fortunately, Xue Jiansheng was also sensible and did not ask any further questions, but quickly turned his gaze back to the direction of the Divine Tree Palace.

We've only dealt with one saint so far, but there are still three more evil saints to deal with, so we can't afford to be careless.

Just then, the Death Saint seized the opportunity when Xue Jiansheng withdrew and Xue Hanyi was left to fend for herself. He suddenly unleashed his power, forcibly breaking free from Xue Hanyi's entanglement. In a flash, he appeared next to the charred corpse of the Puppet Saint.

"Thank you for your trouble, it has saved me a lot of trouble." The Death Saint's face curled into a ferocious smile of pleasure. With a snap of his fingers, the red-clad Death Gods that were originally scattered throughout the shelter gathered around him like a tide, quickly entwining and merging, transforming into a Death God phantom that grew ever larger.

Seeing this, Xue Jiansheng unhesitatingly unleashed all his power, transforming his body into a pure white holy sword, carrying the power to burn everything, and rushed straight towards the red-clad death god who was in the process of merging.

Xue Hanyi immediately put down her opponent and activated her Law Domain. Golden Laws intertwined rapidly, attempting to intercept the Death Saint's movements.

However, the two were a step too slow. Just as the holy sword was about to touch the phantom of the Grim Reaper, the red-clad Grim Reaper had already devoured the charred corpse of the puppet saint.

The next instant, wisps of dense, chilling black energy surged from the red-clad Grim Reaper's body, slowly staining its originally bright red exterior until it was completely black. The overwhelming aura of death swept in all directions, and even the air seemed to freeze.

A terrifying pressure enveloped the entire area, and Lu Yan and Xue Jiansheng's expressions both froze.

Death has come!
