Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

At Hengqi Inn, in Jun Wuxie's private courtyard, the innkeeper arrived once more.

As before, he brought a challenge letter.

These days, people had been coming to the inn daily, seeking Jun Wuxie to issue him challenges.

The inn, of course, could not reveal his location, so they could only receive the letters on his behalf and then forward them.

Yue Yao accepted the challenge letter and thanked the innkeeper.

These days had truly been quite bothersome for the innkeeper.

The current number of challenge letters delivered to Yue Yao was only a fraction of the actual total, as the innkeeper had turned away most of them.

He now spent his days doing nothing else but sitting in front of the inn with a chair, specifically dealing with the challenges issued to Jun Wuxie.

The continuous stream of people was simply too much, with hardly any breaks.

In his opinion, most of these challengers were oddballs, each excessively confident, even inflated.

The innkeeper did not deny that they were all amazing talents with strong bloodline gifts and high aptitude.

However, not everyone with high aptitude and a strong bloodline was qualified to challenge that legendary youth.

Aside from other things, when that youth checked into the inn a few days ago, there was blood on the corner of his mouth, clearly indicating an injury.

Afterward, people from the Underworld Dark Tribe of the Nether Ruins shouted threats outside the city.

From this, it could be inferred that the injury on that legendary youth came from people from a life-forbidden zone.

Others might not be able to tell, but he knew that there were definitely Semi-God realm experts among the people from the Nether Ruins.

This meant that even experts at the Semi-God realm could not stop that youth, only injure him.

One could imagine just how strong that youth was!

He was still far from the Semi-God realm, yet he possessed such heaven-defying abilities. If he were to cultivate to the Eternal Giant realm in the future, wouldn't even Semi-Gods be no match for him?

Just thinking about it felt extremely absurd, simply defying the heavens.

Now, so many people were ignorantly seeking to challenge him.

Without the combat power of an Eternal Giant, what qualifications did they have to challenge that legendary existence?

Of course, he knew that the legendary youth's reputation was too dazzling, shaking the starry skies.

Precisely because his name was so great, perhaps most people felt fear and awe, but some would also be jealous, and even more would see him as a shortcut to elevate themselves.

Just imagine, if one were to defeat such a legend, wouldn't they instantly become famous throughout the starry skies?

In this great era, amazing talents emerged endlessly, various powerful ancient bloodline physiques appeared in clusters, and many were the strongest bloodlines from past eras, all sealed and slumbering until this era to cultivate.

Every heaven-blessed talent was proud, there was no doubt about that; pride was etched into their bones.

This was the confidence of the prodigies, their confidence in themselves, and the foundation for them to grow and strengthen their Dao hearts.

How many people felt that they were weaker than others?

Unless they had witnessed a battle scene or fought against him personally, they would always be unconvinced in their hearts.

This was a normal mentality.

In addition, the people from the Nether Ruins, a life-forbidden zone, were targeting that youth and wanted to kill him.

This made some people feel that as long as they killed that youth, they might gain the favor of the life-forbidden zone, and perhaps even have a slight chance to establish a relationship with the life-forbidden zone.

Therefore, a large number of people came to issue challenges.

In the beginning, the innkeeper was truly overwhelmed, there were too many people, even more than those who came to stay at the inn.

He couldn't bear it anymore and eventually set a standard, constructing a law domain around his body.

He informed everyone in the city who wanted to issue a challenge that if they couldn't even pass the simple law domain he set up, they shouldn't come to issue a challenge, lest they embarrass themselves. With such strength, what qualifications did they have to challenge that legendary youth?

Everyone could see that the innkeeper of Hengqi Inn, Li Mingjun, was incredibly respectful, and his tone and eyes were even ardent whenever he mentioned Jun Wuxie.

Although many people felt very dissatisfied with the standard set by the innkeeper, there was nothing they could do.

The innkeeper of Hengqi Inn was not someone they could afford to offend; he was a high-level figure in the forces behind Hengqi Inn.

Besides, didn't they still have to rely on the innkeeper to forward the challenge letters?

If such a person was unwilling to forward them, who could force him?

This stopped some of the people; otherwise, he had no doubt that the challenge letters could have filled Li Mingjun's private courtyard.

Now, on the jade table in the private courtyard, the challenge letters had already piled up thickly, at least a hundred of them.

Several of them were placed separately to the side.

Those were the ones Yue Yao had selected, the few challenge letters among all the others that contained the most intense battle intent and killing intent.

Obviously, the people who wrote those challenge letters were also the strongest among those who issued challenges, without a doubt.

Also, the challenge letter Yue Yao was currently holding was the one the innkeeper had just given her.

"Miss Yue, the people who issued this challenge letter are not ordinary."

The innkeeper naturally understood a lot of information and knew many prodigies, learning their identities and origins.

He indicated that the challenge letter was not issued by one person, but by a full five people, called the Five Heroes of the Northern Alliance.

"This Northern Alliance is a very famous starfield alliance in the deep space. The Five Heroes of the Northern Alliance come from those five starfields and are the most outstanding young experts of those five starfields in the current era.

The five of them have traveled together for many years. During their travels, they jointly encountered an opportunity and all awakened some kind of special alien-eye pupil technique.

From then on, they used Bei (North) as their surname, and the five became brothers, each taking a name based on the characteristics of their alien-eye supernatural powers.

They have a tacit understanding and cooperation between them. It is said that at any time, every battle is fought together and never separated.

Regardless of whether the opponent is one person or several, once they make a move, all five of them come out together.

In addition, their alien-eye supernatural powers make their combat power extremely terrifying, with very strong ability to fight opponents beyond their realm.

Now, on this Eternal Road, they have encountered many opportunities and their realms have advanced by leaps and bounds.

Originally, their realms were already much higher than Jun Shen's.

Now, although they are not cultivating as fast as Jun Shen on this Eternal Road, in terms of realm, they are probably still slightly ahead of Jun Shen."

The innkeeper did not know what Jun Wuxie's realm was. On that day, he only vaguely felt that the legendary youth's realm seemed to be around the Small Heavenly Position of the Eternal Saint Realm.

He wasn't sure if he had seen it wrong, but he felt that it was roughly the same.

After all, the legendary youth had only been cultivating for a short time, and for the first few decades he was still in a place like the Lower Realm. How many years had it been since he came to this world?

To be able to cultivate to the Small Heavenly Position of the Eternal Saint Realm was already a miracle since ancient times.

Such a cultivation speed was quite terrifying, even heaven-defying.

However, the Five Heroes of the Northern Alliance were much older than that legendary youth, had been cultivating for much longer, and were born in the strongest eternal forces of the five major starfields of the Northern Alliance, receiving great cultivation, born with a golden spoon in their mouths, and growing up soaking in rare resources.

"Thank you for the reminder, Innkeeper. You have been tired these days."

Yue Yao glanced at the challenge letter in her hand and then expressed her gratitude to the innkeeper.

Although they were some polite words, there was also a genuine sense of gratitude.

After all, the innkeeper had helped them a lot these days. Although they didn't really need it, no matter what, it was all out of good intentions.

"Miss Yue, you're welcome. To tell you the truth, without fear of Miss Yue laughing at me, this old man greatly admires Jun Shen.

Such a legend, his life has truly been difficult.

Born in the Lower Realm, from a small city, he became strong on his own, unified the starry skies, quelled the doomsday torrent, and fought for a brilliant and prosperous age for the beings of the Lower Realm!

Coming to this universe, I have also guessed Jun Shen's ambition: the Dawn Dynasty is just the beginning.

Jun Shen's grand aspirations are a great blessing for the beings of this universe.

Such a person, regardless of his strength, character, or responsibility, is worthy of my respect.

This is just a small help, a mere effort, it is what I should do.

I won't bother you any longer. Farewell."

The innkeeper left, and Yue Yao sealed the private courtyard's barrier again.

The hidden Golden Flame Divine Dragon appeared, flew over to look at the challenge letter in Yue Yao's hand, and couldn't help but sigh, "It's another one who doesn't know the meaning of death. The times have really changed. Nowadays, even seeking death is so active, everyone is like they've been injected with chicken blood.

Profits make people crazy. They all want to kill the master to 'prove their Dao' and want to use this to climb up the ladder to the life-forbidden zone. Everyone is whimsical, delusional, and doesn't even look at their own weight."

"They know how much they weigh, but they don't know how much Wuxie-gege weighs.

Amazing talents are all confident. Just like you, before seeing Wuxie-gege fight, would you have thought that you couldn't beat him?"

As Yue Yao spoke, she casually threw the challenge letter in her hand onto the table, landing on the few challenge letters that were placed separately to the side.

"Let's just treat it as a diversion on the road of cultivation. He's been in seclusion this time to cultivate. When he breaks through his realm, it'll be good to stretch his muscles and bones."

… …

At the same time, hundreds of thousands of miles away from the Second Eternal Pass City, in the mountains, on a certain mountain peak, in front of a cliff surrounded by a sea of clouds.

Here were several large trees with lush branches and leaves, covering a large area. There was also flowing water and a large waterfall, rushing straight down from the top of the mountain. The scenery was very beautiful.

The seven Divine Realm experts of the Underworld Dark Tribe were all here.

That True God Heaven's Chosen One was sitting cross-legged on a large bluestone, looking indifferently into the distance. The other six Semi-God Heaven's Chosen Ones were sitting cross-legged on either side of him, slightly behind him.

"The one surnamed Jun has not appeared. He claims to be in seclusion, but I think he is mostly healing.

In that battle that day, although he briefly received two moves from Brother Mingde, he must have paid a huge price. At that time, I saw cracks all over his body and his complexion was not right.

“He hasn't shown up until now, it seems his injuries are more severe than we imagined.

Otherwise, with his forceful personality, how could he allow those people to come to his door to challenge him every day?”

“Well, he is a body cultivator, and not just an ordinary one, you should all be very clear on that.

So, unless he was killed outright at the time, or his source shattered, no matter how severe the injury, he can recover as before, it’s just a matter of time.”

The True God named Mingde spoke indifferently, then a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips, “He’s just prolonging his life for a few days. Once he leaves this city, I can kill him at any time.

When we meet again, I will not make the same mistake as last time, and will not give him any chance.”

He thought of that day, if he had gone all out from the beginning, would Jun Wuhui have had a chance?

The answer is no, of course, he would not have had a chance.

Then he would have taken his head back to the tribe to report for duty long ago.

“Brother Mingde is right, that Jun will not live for many days anyway.

However, he can still be glorious for a while.

Those challengers, I estimate that many of them will be killed by him on the life and death arena.”

The Yinming tribe's demigod prodigy who spoke could not help but reveal a sinister smile, and said: “He probably really thinks that our words in the air these days are provoking him, urging him to leave the city.

Knowing that he will not leave the city, how could we do such useless work.

Well, what we want is to use the psychology of some people who want to become famous by this, and then climb up to my Mingxu, and let them challenge that Jun.

As long as that Jun kills those people on the life and death arena, the hatred between the Liming Dynasty and the major forces in the starry sky will be formed.

We people from the restricted area, it is not good to attack the Liming Dynasty, but the external forces can.

Just wait until we kill Jun Wuhen, and the news of his death spreads, then, the Liming Dynasty…

Cutting off the head of my Yinming tribe's young master, such public provocation, the price he will pay will not only be his own life, but also the fate of the entire Liming Dynasty!

My Yinming tribe wants the world to know what the bloody consequences will be for daring to provoke the forbidden zone of life!”

… …

Inside the city, the three guardian clans also have different thoughts these days.

They often gather, their faces are full of worry, and they all know what the worry on each other's faces is for, but no one mentions it.

People from the Youyu clan and the Lanqin clan have met alone several times.

Now the Lanqin clan is slowly alienating the Heiji clan.

However, on the surface, they still appear to be close to the Heiji clan.

“The Jun God has been in seclusion, I don’t know if it’s because of the serious injuries he suffered that day.

This time, I don’t know what realm the strong people from the Yinming tribe are, but they have made Jun God, such a powerful physique, not come out for half a month. I hope there will be no big problem… … ”

The high-level members of the Youyu clan looked solemn.

“The Jun God should be fine, we don’t need to worry too much. His physique is so powerful, and his performance in the first Eternal Pass Secret Realm can be called heaven-defying.

What we have to consider now is that the strong men of the Yinming tribe are guarding in the mountains outside the city.

Now the Jun God is safe in the city, but the Jun God can’t always stay in the city, he always has to leave.

When the Jun God leaves this Eternal Pass City and embarks on the starry sky road to the third Eternal Pass, the strong men of the Yinming tribe will definitely show up.

At that time, they will definitely ask us to give the starry sky coordinates of the Jun God.

If we don’t agree, we are not their opponents, and we can’t resist at all. If we agree, we will be sorry for the Jun God, and we will also violate our mission and responsibility.

Also, even if we risk our lives, what about the Heiji clan?

They hate the Jun God to the bone, and they have been targeting him in the first Eternal Pass. How could they give up such a good opportunity.

The problem now is that when that time comes, the people of the Heiji clan will definitely show the way to the strong men of the Yinming tribe.

How do we prevent this from happening? It seems that we can’t find a way now, unless we kill all the people of the Heiji clan.

Obviously, that is impossible to do.”

The high-level members of the Lanqin tribe frowned, feeling overwhelmed and not knowing what to do.

It's all the damn Yinming tribe, the restricted area of life has actually participated in the road of eternity, making it difficult for them to deal with.

In the past, according to the Jun God's intention, the people of the Yinming tribe were allowed to chase and kill him on the road of the starry sky.

But now, the Jun God is obviously not the opponent of this group of people from the restricted area. If he continues to do so, it is very likely that the Jun God will be buried on the road of the starry sky.

“We are really powerless… … ”

The high-level members of the two major clans looked at each other, then shook their heads helplessly, and said: “We can only wait for the Jun God to leave seclusion, and then we will visit him, ask him what he means, and see what he says.”
