My strength increases by one percent every day; I can destroy stars with my bare hands.

Inside the courtroom, Yan Fa was talking to Li Xuancang.

Judging from Yan Fa's gloomy expression, the conversation between the two was not harmonious.

"Xuan Cang, Blackrock Fortress is in dire need of help. All factions and the Inquisition hope that you can go to its aid."

The strict laws are no longer concealed, but are laid bare.

"Lord Yan, I recently went to the Abyss to hunt monsters, and my injuries have not yet healed. I am truly unable to continue. Please find someone more capable!"

Li Xuancang refused without hesitation.

If they can use him whenever they want and discard him whenever they want, wouldn't Li Xuancang become their lackey, summoned and obeyed at will?

"Xuan Cang, I know you harbor resentment. As long as you are willing to fight, the Tribunal will rescind all punishments imposed on you."

Faced with Li Xuancang, Yan Fa had no other choice but to offer kind words of advice.

"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."

Li Xuancang ignored him and turned to leave.

"Ugh!"

Watching Li Xuancang's departing figure, Yan Fa sighed.

He didn't know when he and Li Xuancang had become estranged, and what he could do about it.

After Li Xuancang returned to the palace, Su Xinghai and Bai Meng secretly left the capital.

Li Xuancang's refusal to go to Blackstone Fortress was not out of spite.

Bai Meng is about to break through, and he plans to enter the abyss with Su Xinghai to hunt down powerful demons in the Cave Heaven Realm, helping Bai Meng break through to the Cave Heaven Realm as soon as possible.

Not long after the three left, the Divine Dynasty dispatched four experts at the Cave Heaven Realm to reinforce Black Stone Fortress.

The Divine Dynasty voluntarily abandoned some counties, contracted its defenses, and concentrated its forces to defend Blackstone Fortress.

Some of the world's garrisons are on high alert, ready to receive orders at any time.

In a dark place in the Land of Abandoned Heaven, two figures are talking.

"The cosmic rift is about to heal, at which time all the heavens and worlds will be connected. We must make plans in advance."

One of them exuded an aura that made all things feel at ease; if a knowledgeable person were present, they would recognize him as a Holy Spirit at a glance.

"The cosmic rift is healing, and the abyss will launch an invasion against you. How will you respond?"

A cosmic rift severed all the heavens and realms, dividing them in two.

It not only severed the communication between the myriad realms, but also cut off the passage from the abyss to the other side.

Expansion is the abyss's instinct, and it will inevitably invade the myriad worlds on the other side.

"We need the eternal fire."

The Holy Spirit spoke startling words, plotting to establish the eternal fire of God's kingdom.

The Eternal Divine Fire is the foundation of the divine dynasty and an unparalleled weapon against the abyss; the Holy Spirit Realm desperately needs it.

"Although the Divine Fire is guarded by the Palace of Fire, it is monitored by the Court of Judgment. All the great formations in the capital are under the control of the Court of Judgment, and there is nothing we can do about it."

The man in black robes explained his predicament.

The Eternal God Emperor trusted the Tribunal the most, because only the Tribunal could take away the Eternal Divine Fire.

Upon hearing this, the Holy Spirit remained silent for a moment before continuing, "Put aside the matter of the divine fire for now. I need your full assistance to kill Li Xuancang."

The mention of Li Xuancang made the Holy Spirit grit his teeth, as if he had an irreconcilable hatred for Li Xuancang.

"Yes, but Li Xuancang is very powerful. We must have a perfect plan before we make a move, to kill him in one strike and leave him no chance of survival."

The Holy Spirit's request was exactly what the man in the black robe wanted.

They already had a blood feud with Li Xuancang and were always thinking about getting rid of him.

"The cracks have begun to heal, and we can send more people here. Li Xuancang is doomed."

The Holy Spirit's murderous intent surfaced, and he couldn't wait to grind Li Xuancang to dust.

The two talked for a long time before parting ways, and no one knew about their secret plot.

As Li Xuancang and Su Xinghai entered the abyss, the abyss mark on Li Xuancang's head instantly appeared.

"You should hide first."

Li Xuancang instructed Su Xinghai to hide, using himself as bait to lure the powerful figures from the abyss.

"It's the aura of a Deathbringer. Kill him."

The Abyss Mark was even more terrifying than Li Xuancang had imagined; its appearance attracted countless demons to attack it.

Even those demons at the Divine Treasure Realm and Dharma Body Realm, who already possessed their own will, couldn't control themselves and, disregarding the vast difference in their cultivation levels, frantically attacked Li Xuancang.

"boom!"

Li Xuancang's body trembled slightly, and instantly the world changed color, and yin and yang were reversed.

He was surrounded by crimson lightning, and his vital energy formed an invisible force field.

"puff!"

"what!"

"Well!"

"..."

Countless monsters that approached the force field were crushed into dust, their minds and bodies utterly destroyed.

Li Xuancang stayed in one place without moving for half a month, which finally attracted the demons of the Cave Heaven Realm.

"roar!"

A colossal creature with two heads, wings on its back, golden feathers covering it like armor, and three sharp claws charged towards Li Xuancang.

After a roar, the surrounding demons seemed to receive a command and became orderly, launching a fierce attack on Li Xuancang.

"Bang……"

Some demons self-destructed to clear a path, hoping to deplete even a tiny bit of Li Xuancang's power.

"call out!"

Li Xuancang flashed and appeared in front of the demon. He opened his arms, bent his five fingers into a fist, and unleashed a world-destroying punch.

"roar!"

Sensing danger, the monster opened its two gaping maws, and two forces, one blue and one white, suddenly burst forth.

"boom!"

Li Xuancang threw a punch, and the force of his fist collided with the two beams of light, resulting in a fierce clash.

"Bang!"

After a brief stalemate, the force of his fist shattered the pillar of light, and a punch landed on the demon, sending it flying.

The demon's golden feathers scattered all over the ground, and the force of its punches pierced through its body, leaving him covered in blood.

Li Xuancang's strength is even greater than it was a year ago; he can severely injure someone in the early stage of the Cave Heaven Realm with a single blow.

Come here!

As the monster's body tumbled about, a black hole enveloped it, emanating an irresistible suction force that pulled it in.

"roar!"

Under the oppressive force of the black hole, every movement of the monster was extremely difficult. He sensed the danger and fought back desperately.

"puff!"

Li Xuancang rushed over and kicked one of his heads so hard that it was unrecognizable, with brains and blood splattering out.

"Bang!"

Li Xuancang smashed the other head with his fist, and the demon was instantly left barely alive, with no power to resist anymore.

"Haha, we got it."

With little effort, Su Xinghai subdued the monster and took it into his cave.

"Oh no, let's go!"

Suddenly, Li Xuancang's expression changed drastically, and he urged Su Xinghai to flee for his life.

Su Xinghai didn't know what had happened, but he still obeyed Li Xuancang's orders and fled at top speed.

"Bang!"

The moment the two escaped, the ground they stood on instantly collapsed, as if crushed by an invisible hand, turning into nothingness.

"what!"

Suddenly, Su Xinghai let out a scream and was forced to stop.

"Click, click click click..."

His face was flushed, his clothes were shattered, and his bones were cracking as if they were about to be crushed.

"puff……"

His body was like a sieve, with blood gushing out.

Su Xinghai's aura suddenly dropped, and his life force began to dissipate.
