Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Jun Wuxie's brow radiated soul light that flickered continuously, his World Domain protecting his body.

The flower sprite could not break through and, having suffered a loss, did not continue its attack, but surrounded him instead.

Clearly, it knew that this human was trying to rescue its prey.

Prey of this level was something it usually wouldn't even dare to dream of.

The creatures on the island with higher cultivation levels than it had blood energy that was too vigorous, making them less affected inside this sea of flowers.

It was difficult for it to hunt them using these methods.

Only outsiders, humans whose main power came from mana, could be easily dealt with once they lost their mana.

Having finally encountered such an opportunity today, how could it miss it?

"Release her, and you can avoid disaster, otherwise today will be the turning point of your fate!"

Jun Wuxie transmitted a wave of divine thought to the flower sprite.

However, the flower sprite's vines danced in the air like flood dragons, stirring up violent currents, completely ignoring his warning.

Seeing this, Jun Wuxie stopped speaking, his eyes becoming extremely cold.

He floated in the air, his World Domain enveloping him, his gaze fixed on the area of berserk mana in the distance that was rapidly subsiding.

The berserk mana that had previously covered a large area had now shrunk to a radius of only ten meters or so.

The degree of mana's berserk state had also weakened considerably.

That area covered by mana continued to shrink and soon subsided, revealing Nan Zhi's figure.

At this time, her entire body was entangled and imprisoned by flower vines, and she was struggling with all her might, but she couldn't break free.

There was no longer any mana leaking from her body, and the immortal mana within her body had almost completely dissipated, and her blood energy was also severely suppressed.

Her face was extremely pale, and there was blood on the corner of her mouth.

In the process of resisting the flower vines, the entanglement and strangulation force of the flower vines had already caused internal injuries.

"You… why haven't you left yet…"

Nan Zhi looked at Jun Wuxie, who was supporting his domain and floating in the distance, her eyes filled with deep guilt and self-blame.

If it weren't for her, Little Brother Yuan Chu might not have chosen to walk through this sea of flowers, and wouldn't have encountered this kind of thing.

She, a peak Origin Realm expert, thought she could protect him in this unknown domain.

Never would she have thought that she would become his burden…

"Of course, it's to take you away!"

Jun Wuxie's words were full of confidence.

He stepped into the air, heading towards Nan Zhi.

The flower sprite's vines immediately intercepted him.

In addition to the original flower vines, a large number of flower vines appeared at this time, moving like pythons, quickly approaching and forming a vine wall in front.

"Do you think you can stop me with just that!"

Jun Wuxie suddenly accelerated, charging over like a berserk beast.

The flower sprite thought he was going to crash into its vine wall, but Jun Wuxie didn't.

He seemed to be charging straight ahead, but just as he was about to hit the vine wall, his body suddenly soared into the high sky.

The flower sprite's vine wall followed and quickly intertwined towards the high sky, but it was too late.

After Jun Wuxie's body crossed the vine wall, he cut through the sky like a stream of light, arriving beside Nan Zhi.

"Human, you can't take her away!

Although I don't know what means your domain uses to have such terrifying defensive power.

However, you only have defensive means; let's see how you can rescue her from my flower vine's restraints."

The flower sprite's divine thought fluctuations came from all directions of the sea of flowers, making it impossible to figure out where its body was hidden.

"Shameless boasting!"

Jun Wuxie sneered.

His brow, the soul light that was already blazing, suddenly erupted with a light that was many times stronger.

So much so that his body trembled violently.

"Jiu'er, help me suppress myself!"

As his voice fell, the Nine Beginning Exquisite Pagoda rushed out of his body, instantly growing larger, hanging down strands of chaos, enveloping him.

Jun Wuxie gritted his teeth, and his soul realm soared again, instantly reaching the final realm before the Emperor Realm—the Gui Zhen Realm!

"How is this possible? Such terrifying soul power. What kind of monster are you!"

At this moment, the flower sprite hidden in the sea of flowers was terrified, its divine thought fluctuations filled with trembling.

"Die!"

Jun Wuxie's eyes exploded with cold light, and instantly, a beam of blazing soul light shot out from his brow, condensing into a soul spear that pierced through the sky, reaching directly into a certain place in the sea of flowers.

Too fast!

The soul spear instantly plunged into that sea of flowers, followed by a heart-wrenching scream.

Boom!

In the place where the soul spear struck, a burst of violent energy swept out, blasting the sea of flowers into a mess.

A plant that was several meters tall appeared.

It shook frantically, its leaves and petals falling, rapidly withering and decaying, emitting bursts of unwilling screams.

"No! I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled!"

The flower sprite, on the verge of death, emitted hysterical divine thought fluctuations.

But this process was only a brief moment; its divine thought fluctuations suddenly disappeared, its main body withered, covered with cracks, and directly exploded, its form and spirit destroyed!

Almost at the same time, with its place of death as the center, the sea of flowers rapidly withered, spreading madly in all directions, all the way to the end of the line of sight.

The soul light on Jun Wuxie's brow suddenly faded, he landed from the air, his steps staggered, almost unable to stand steady, his chest heaving violently, feeling a burst of dizziness.

"Master!"

The Nine Beginning Exquisite Pagoda quickly fell, transforming into a fairy-like woman with jade bones and peerless elegance, reaching out to support him.

"I'm fine, protect me."

Jun Wuxie sat down cross-legged, stabilizing his soul and body.

"Brother!"

The flower sprite died, the flower vines disappeared, Nan Zhi regained her freedom, and stumbled over.

"Don't disturb Master!"

Jiu'er reached out and stopped Nan Zhi, looking at Nan Zhi with unkind eyes.

"I… I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I've implicated him…"

Nan Zhi's eyes were red, filled with self-blame and guilt.

"Forget it, actually it's not your fault."

Jiu'er sighed softly when she saw her like this.

"I… is there anything I can do to help?"

Nan Zhi's heart was in chaos at this time, so much so that she lost her composure and lacked the calmness of a clan king.

"What do you think? You've lost all your mana now. What can you do to help?"

"Jiu'er, be quiet."

Jun Wuxie's weak voice reached Jiu'er's ears.

She gave him a resentful and distressed look, her red lips slightly pouting, and stopped speaking.

Half an hour later, Jun Wuxie opened his eyes, the weak state swept away.

He returned to his normal state.

He hadn't actually consumed much; he had only forcibly elevated his soul realm, causing an uncontrollable degree of separation between his soul and body.

Now it had been perfectly integrated.

Seeing him recover so quickly, Nan Zhi smiled with red eyes.

Jiu'er then glanced at Nan Zhi, then at Jun Wuxie, and then transformed into a streak of chaotic light and disappeared into his body.

"Brother, I…"

"Sister Nan Zhi, let's leave first. This place is not suitable for a long stay.

Such a huge sea of flowers, the territory of that flower sprite, suddenly undergoing such a change, is very likely to attract other Great Wilderness creatures.

Now that you've lost all your mana, if we face a Great Wilderness creature of a high realm head-on, we'll be at a great disadvantage."

After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he grabbed Nan Zhi, supported a blood energy sphere, and broke through the air.

Now that Nan Zhi had lost her mana, and her blood energy had not yet recovered to its peak state, her abilities in all aspects had greatly declined, and her speed was far from being able to keep up with Jun Wuxie, so he could only take her with him.

After leaving the withered sea of flowers, they entered the mountains and forests and found a relatively hidden valley.

This valley was on a small mountain range, located between the territories of two Great Wilderness creatures, making it relatively safe.

Looking out from here, you could still see the withering sea of flowers within the range of sight.

"Brother, let your sister return to the Eight Nine Profound Palace."

Nan Zhi didn't want to become his burden.

Now that she had lost all her mana, it would take a long time to recover to her peak state.

Mainly, there were no resources that could quickly replenish mana, so she could only naturally absorb the world's origin energy to replenish it.

"Sister Nan Zhi."

Jun Wuxie knew what she was thinking and looked at her very solemnly, "If there is a need for you to return to the Eight Nine Profound Palace, I will naturally guide you in.

Now, I don't think that's necessary.

Don't let something happen, some kind of change, and you think it will drag me down."

"But your sister has become your burden!

How dangerous it was when you saved me before! At that time, your soul almost lost control!

Your sister feels so useless. She couldn't save the clan back then, couldn't protect them, and later she couldn't even protect Chong'er. If it weren't for you, our mother and son would have already become Fiend Spirits!

Now here, I thought that my cultivation could help you, could protect you, but in the end, I still need you to risk danger to save me!"

"Sister Nan Zhi, calm down. This is not your fault."

"It's my fault, it's my problem, it's me who's too bad, it's me…"

"Enough!"

Jun Wuxie suddenly shouted in a low voice.

Nan Zhi was stunned and suddenly stopped talking.

"I said, everyone has unsatisfactory things in their life, and most will experience misfortune.

You can't always carry the shadows of the past and use this kind of mentality to look at the things you are experiencing now.

When we encounter problems, we solve the problems, instead of solving ourselves!

Speaking of which, Jun Wuxie's voice became softer, "Sister Nan Zhi, I know you're worried about me, afraid of affecting me.

But you have to trust my judgment and ability.

This time, letting you come out is to solve the problems you encounter in your cultivation, to solve the flaws.

Only you can take the essence blood of that level of Great Wilderness creature."

"Sister knows, I was a little out of control just now. Is brother angry?"

Nan Zhi's face flushed red, realizing she had indeed been too agitated.

“I’m not that petty. I just wanted you to calm down quickly. My tone might have been a bit harsh, perhaps making Sister Nan Zhi uncomfortable…”

“Sister isn’t that petty!” she said, laughing as she habitually flipped her long hair. “Even if you really scolded me, I wouldn’t be angry with you.

It’s just that now my magic is gone, and I’m afraid it will be difficult to recover in a short time, which will delay your time.

Aren't you supposed to leave here within the specified time?”

“That’s right, there is a time limit, but the time should be sufficient.

We can recover a bit first, and then recover while going deeper.”

As Jun Wusheng spoke, he looked around the valley, then walked around an area with strange steps.

Nan Zhi saw that when his footsteps fell, brilliant golden runes sank into the earth, and she couldn't help but feel curious.

Is little brother setting up a rune array?

Before long, Jun Wusheng stopped.

Where he had walked, runes lit up, weaving on the ground, evolving into a complete array diagram.

Immediately, a large amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy quickly gathered towards the magic array.

“This is a Spirit Gathering Array, but it is different from the Spirit Gathering Arrays that Sister has seen before.

For little brother to construct a Spirit Gathering Array at his realm, it can actually achieve such a powerful effect…”

She knew that his rune path was only at the Heavenly God Realm, but the effect of this Spirit Gathering Array was far beyond what a rune master of this realm could achieve.

“I am a Primordial Rune Master, and I use the Primordial Rune Path, so my methods are naturally not comparable to those of ordinary rune masters.

Sister Nan Zhi, come in and absorb the spiritual energy quickly.

With the help of this Spirit Gathering Array, I believe it won't take long for your magic power to recover to the Chaos Realm.”

“Okay!”

Nan Zhi immediately entered the array and sat down cross-legged, circulating her cultivation technique, drawing the primordial energy into her body.

She had to recover as soon as possible to protect herself, otherwise she would have to rely on her little brother to protect her, which might affect his chances of finding opportunities here.

This was something she could not accept.

She only allowed herself to become her little brother's help, and would never allow herself to become his burden!

The dignified Nan Ju King, a peak powerhouse of the Origin Realm, must not become a useless person!

… …

Time passed in the blink of an eye, and half a month had passed.

Nan Zhi's magic power in her body finally recovered to the Chaos Realm level.

Generally speaking, it shouldn't be so slow to recover magic power after it has been exhausted.

But her magic power was lost, which was not the same as controllable consumption.

Her magic power was lost under uncontrollable circumstances, not a trace was left, and the entire Star Sea was completely withered, even the stars disintegrated and disappeared.

The exhaustion caused by battle is only the exhaustion of the stars, dim and dull, and there is no more magic power to circulate, but it does not mean that there is really not a trace of magic power in the body.

A few more days passed like this.

It wasn't until she recovered to the peak of the Chaos Realm that she walked out of the Spirit Gathering Rune Array.

Twenty days had already been delayed here, and it couldn't be delayed any longer.

Time was getting tighter and tighter.

“Little brother, how are we going this time?”

Nan Zhi no longer made decisions or suggestions, completely handing it over to Jun Wusheng to decide.

She believed that his decision would be better than her own.

Although his realm was not high, his knowledge was broader than her own, and he knew more than her.

“We still have to go through the sea of flowers. This place is closest to the sea of flowers, and taking other routes is more circuitous.”

“There should still be those sprites in the sea of flowers.”

Nan Zhi stood on the cliff of the valley and could see the sea of flowers that had not withered at the end of her line of sight.

Obviously, there was more than one flower sprite in the sea of flowers, each with its own territory.

“I will use the World Domain, and the poisonous fragrance of the sea of flowers will not affect us.

The realm of the flower sprites is not high, around the peak of the Chaos Realm.

At that time, Sister Nan Zhi can open the way in my World Domain, and we will force our way through.”

“Okay, Sister will listen to you.

Did you deliberately not kill the other flower sprites last time?”

With his terrifying soul power at that time, he could have completely killed the other flower sprites, but he didn't do so.

Therefore, only deliberately letting go of the other flower sprites could explain it.

“Little brother, could it be that you kept them in preparation for dealing with the Ghost Witch Clan?”

Jun Wusheng smiled upon hearing this, “Sister Nan Zhi is indeed the Nan Ju King, with a quick mind, ice and snow smart.

Although I don’t know if it can be used, but since I know that there are flower sprites here that can disperse people’s magic power, of course I have to leave a few behind, just in case, maybe it can really be used.”

… …

At the same time, somewhere on the island.

The people of the Ghost Witch Clan walked out of the cave.

There were many bloodstains on their bodies, which had long since dried up.

“Finally recovered, the suppression of the order rules here is really hateful. Just this little injury actually took so long!”

“It doesn’t matter. Although we wasted a lot of time, the gains we got are not small!”

The protector of the Ghost Witch Clan spread out his palm, and in the space evolved in his palm, there was a shining beast core suspended, containing majestic power.

“A Chaos Peak Primordial Living Creature Beast Core, its value is immeasurable, as well as its original essence blood, beast skin and beast bones!

Well, we originally discovered new traces of Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian, and went after them, but we didn't expect to encounter a primordial creature that we could just deal with, which can be regarded as an opportunity delivered to our door, hahaha!”

“So many days have passed, I don’t know where that Yuan Chu Su Qingqian has gone to hide.

Do we want to use the King’s Blood Secret Technique to track them down?”

“Of course!

Haven’t you discovered it?

Following their footprints, the chance of encountering opportunities will be greater. They are indeed people with great luck!

There are no Dao Rules left by my royal ancestors in this world, so that kind of deduction method cannot be used. We can only use the King’s Blood Forbidden Technique to track them down. The cost will be greater. We need several of us to cast it together, so the impact on a single person will be relatively small. If one person casts it, they will definitely enter a period of weakness.

All of you come together!”

The protector of the Ghost Witch Clan said to the eight Chaos Realm clansmen.
