Chapter 822 656: Eternal Divine City, Last Descendant of the Divine Race
Immediately, Lu Xuanji felt his cultivation forcibly suppressed to the Eighth Layer, as darkness eroded, death qi invaded, devouring and destruction, emotional interference, and various attacks continued incessantly.
"Creation Realm!"
Lu Xuanji activated a secret technique, with golden light flickering, holy and majestic, surrounding his body like a golden sun.
The golden domain clashed with the black domain, like two worlds colliding.
"Your understanding of the Mysteries is incomplete, still lacking compared to me!" The Heaven-Devouring Saint Heir sneered, but in the next moment, a crisp sound was heard, and the black domain shattered, like a broken porcelain.
"Impossible, how can you be this powerful!"
The Heaven-Devouring Saint Heir exclaimed in shock, but his eyes flickered, with gray runes flashing in his pupils, peering into the golden domain, his shock not diminishing but increasing: "Mysteries of Life, Mysteries of Death, Mysteries of Time, Mysteries of Space, Mysteries of the Five Elements, Mysteries of Yin and Yang, all perfectly integrated into the Mysteries of Creation... Impossible!"
Repeating "impossible" several times, his inner astonishment increased, along with his panic.
This Outer Realm Evil Demon had not perfectly comprehended the Mysteries, and his comprehension level was quite low.
Yet many Mysteries were perfectly integrated, with Creation Mysteries as the primary, Life and Death Mysteries as supporting, Space-Time Mysteries as derivative, and Five Elements Yin Yang Transformation as expansion, merging seamlessly without any conflict or discord.
It was this perfect integration that directly crushed the Heaven-Devouring Realm in their domain collision.
"Kill!"
Lu Xuanji wielded the Nine-Colored Divine Saber, aiming to strike down.
The Heaven-Devouring Saint Heir's figure flickered, dodging aside, but a massive gash appeared on his chest as he shouted, "Outer Realm Evil Demon, what do you call yourself, dare to say your name?"
Lu Xuanji shouted sternly, "Remember, grandpa's name is Xiao Yan!"
Silly would be the one to announce a name like that.
"Xiao Yan, I remember it!"
The Heaven-Devouring Saint Heir said, "This time I spare your life, but next time I will surely take it!"
As he spoke, a feather appeared in his hand, and upon activating it, he immediately vanished.
The Imprisonment Array set in the void instantly failed.
Lu Xuanji couldn't catch up in pursuit.
"Father, that person got away!" At this moment, Hong Tian appeared, with a trace of annoyance flashing across his face.
According to the division of labor, generally, the father would defeat the enemy, while she was responsible for sealing off the void and intercepting the enemy's escape route. In the end, the two would jointly kill the enemy. But who would've expected that the appearance of that feather would break through Hong Tian's restraint and allow escape.
"That's the privilege of big families!" Lu Xuanji said with envy, "They always have unknown trump cards to secure their lives. It's both unexpected and understandable."
Talents, only those who mature are truly considered talents.
A genius who falls halfway, perishing in the middle, is nothing at all.
Those born into top-tier forces often have Guardians assigned or escape tools provided to them, thus increasing the chances of certain geniuses surviving.
In this regard, the Heaven-Devouring Saint Heir is the best proof.
As for the Flame Demon Emperor, though appearing to be a Tribulation Crossing Cultivator, he had far fewer trump cards, and also fewer escape tools, ultimately being killed by him.
"This time you got away, but next time will be your burial ground. By then, perhaps you won't even see my shadow!"
Lu Xuanji set aside stray thoughts, shouted a killing cry, and wielded a hammer, beginning a slaughter.
The Heaven-Devouring Saint Heir ran away, but his followers had no way to flee. It was just right to slaughter them all, compensating for his own losses.
A quarter of an hour later, Lu Xuanji put down the hammer.
Those who ran slowly, with bad luck, were all slain by him; while a few with fast speed, good luck, Lu Xuanji also couldn't be bothered to pursue.
Leaving this forbidden zone, Lu Xuanji suddenly felt a familiar aura in the northwest direction, and his figure flickered, chasing after it.
...
The feather flickered, and the next moment, the Heaven-Devouring Saint Heir disappeared, traversing space-time.
Directly leaving the [World Ruins] and entering the outside world. As for leaving the World Ruins three years later, that's just a rule for small characters. As for some big figures, they can directly bypass it.
"Saint Heir, you've come out!"
At this moment, a terrifying aura descended, and a Tribulation Crossing Great Power appeared.
This Tribulation Crossing Great Power was his Guardian.
"I've come out!"
The Heaven-Devouring Saint Heir said.
The Tribulation Crossing Great Power asked with curiosity, still carrying a bit of anxiety, "How were your gains?"
The Heaven-Devouring Saint Heir said, "This time, I was very fortunate, acquiring six Mystery Fruits. Given some time, I can achieve small Perfection in the Mysteries!"
The Tribulation Crossing Great Power said, "Congratulations to the Saint Heir, Tribulation Crossing can be expected, and there's hope to become a top great power in the future!"
Tribulation Crossing cultivators have differences in strength; the weaker ones are just in the first or second layer, unable to progress further, serving more as bottom roles; while stronger ones can achieve the Ninth-Layer of Tribulation Crossing, becoming top figures. He has some talent, managing to become a Tribulation Crossing Great Power, but has only overcome two tribulations.
The success rate of surviving the third tribulation is less than one percent.
This is why he willingly became the Heaven-Devouring Saint Heir's Guardian, their destinies linked.
In the future, he may be able to advance with the Saint Heir's destiny.
However, the Heaven-Devouring Saint Heir wasn't delighted but instead said, "But I still failed, at the hands of an Outer Realm Evil Demon who comprehended the Mysteries of Creation and perfectly integrated many Mysteries together..."
