Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Jun Wuxie wasn't surprised by the reactions of Xingmeng and the others. The resources he possessed, even a small fraction, were enough to shock anyone.

“Hmph, don't think that just because you give us some benefits, we'll be grateful!”

Qingyi's eyes were complex. This man was originally their target for enforcement, but they were inferior in skill and had their heads chopped off by him, their lives in his hands. Yet, in the end, he didn't kill them and even gave them rare resources to heal their injuries.

Now, the Hall Master and the Enforcement Elders had compromised with him, even betraying the Starry Sky Ancient Road headquarters to go to Emperor Beginning Star, which meant they would have to survive under the protection of this man's dynasty in the future.

What shocked them the most was that the Hall Master had killed many of the Eighth Ancestor's confidants in the Enforcement Hall, leading a rebellion to Emperor Beginning Star.

Jun Wuxie didn't care about Qingyi's attitude, saying, “Your sword is fast, and you're rarely matched in the same realm, but that's all in the past. In this era, being at the peak of the first level of the Ancient Legend isn't enough to be called invincible. There are more than ten people with higher growth potential than you.”

“Are you… bragging?”

Qingyi ground her teeth lightly, still resentful about having her head chopped off and hung on Jun Wuxie's waist.

“Of course not. I'm just stating a fact, and reminding you that there's nothing wrong with being proud, but it depends on who you're dealing with. Don't be so proud in front of me in the future. Look, I'm so outstanding, but am I proud?”

“You're not proud, you're arrogant! Weren't you arrogant enough in the Western Luo Imperial Capital?”

“Oh, really?” Jun Wuxie smiled faintly, “Then you see, I'm living well now, so I have the capital to be arrogant. When facing arrogant people, I naturally have to be even more arrogant, so that those who are arrogant in front of me understand how ridiculous their pride is, how vulnerable their self-proclaimed strength is.”

“Hmph!”

Qingyi snorted coldly, shifting her gaze away from him.

“Alright, Qingyi, stop arguing with Lord Jun. I know you're uncomfortable, but you went to kill Lord Jun before. He didn't kill you, and Lord Jun was very generous in that regard,”

Xingmeng said, holding Qingyi's head.

“Everyone, Yinlan and I are about to head to the Fallen Star Sea. Please help Qingyi and the others reattach their heads as soon as possible. You don't need to wait for them to recover; they can heal in your blessed lands. The starry sky isn't safe now, so you need to go to Emperor Beginning Star as soon as possible and go directly to my Immortal Execution Dynasty. Find Regent Lingfei there, and she will arrange everything.”

“Lord Jun, do you really want us to join the Immortal Execution Dynasty?”

The Enforcement Elders, including Xingmeng, were all surprised.

They had thought about how to settle down after going to Emperor Beginning Star and had plans in mind, intending to hide in the Dragon Ridge Mountains.

That was a very special area. Even if the Eighth Ancestor sent strong individuals to Emperor Beginning Star, they wouldn't be able to sense their location through aura and divine sense.

They didn't expect that Jun Wuxie would directly ask them to go to the Immortal Execution Dynasty, which meant that the Immortal Execution Dynasty would directly face the Eighth Ancestor's wrath.

“Aren't you afraid that we will bring disaster to the Immortal Execution Dynasty?” Elder Xinghe looked at him with bright eyes, “The Eighth Ancestor's power is far stronger than you imagine. Even we Enforcement Elders don't know how many powerful experts this lineage has, how many peak Extreme Celestial Realm beings have sealed themselves and slept until this era!”

“Yes, Lord Jun, you must think carefully,” An Enforcement Elder named Xinggai said with a solemn expression, “Lord Jun, you are confronting the Eighth Ancestor in the starry sky, and he will only target you personally. But if we go to the Immortal Execution Dynasty, the nature will be different, and the dynasty will become the Eighth Ancestor's target!”

Elder Xingyun also said, “We originally planned to go to the Dragon Ridge Mountains after arriving at Emperor Beginning Star. As long as we hide well, it will be difficult for the strong individuals sent by the Eighth Ancestor to find us, ensuring our safety.”

After listening, Jun Wuxie said with a smile, “I don't like to beat around the bush or be subtle. To put it bluntly, Senior Xing Baitian asked you to take this step so that you would rely on my Immortal Execution Dynasty. Do you all admit this or not?”

The muscles on the faces of several Enforcement Elders twitched a few times.

Of course, they were unwilling to admit it, but they knew very well that this was what the Hall Master meant.

Betraying the Eighth Ancestor, there was nowhere to settle down in the vast starry sky, and Emperor Beginning Star was the only place to go.

Although the Dragon Ridge Mountains could provide temporary shelter, it wasn't the best choice. They couldn't hide inside forever.

Sooner or later, they would have to come out and seek the protection of the increasingly powerful Immortal Execution Dynasty. Relying on it was only a matter of time.

It was just that thinking about the young man in front of them, who was lower than them in both seniority and realm, it was difficult to accept admitting reliance in public, both in terms of face and psychologically.

“Since you don't speak, then you default to agreeing,” Jun Wuxie said seriously, “Since you are relying on my Immortal Execution Dynasty, then my Immortal Execution Dynasty has the responsibility to protect you. The Eighth Ancestor is strong, but wanting to control my Immortal Execution Dynasty is probably impossible. I'm going to the Fallen Star Region this time, and when the matter of the Celestial Realm Dao Fruit is over, when I return, the overlords in this starry sky will eventually tremble!”

Hearing these words, Xingmeng and the others couldn't help but feel a tremor in their hearts.

The young man's words weren't very impassioned or sonorous, but he spoke such words very calmly, yet each word had unparalleled confidence!

“Does Lord Jun really have such confidence?”

Hearing these words, a blazing flame ignited in the eyes of several people, and they felt their blood boiling involuntarily. This feeling came strangely, just because of the young man's words in front of them.

Such words sounded very arrogant, but they knew that it wasn't impossible, but they still couldn't help but remind him, “Even if Lord Jun obtains the Extreme Celestial Realm Dao Fruit, when he returns, he should only be in the early stage of the Extreme Celestial Realm. It may not be easy to shake those overlords in the starry sky with this realm!”

“As long as I step into the Extreme Celestial Realm, in this lower realm universe, except for those beings that don't belong to this world, no one can suppress me anymore.” Jun Wuxie said here, quite sentimentally, “I remember when I first embarked on the path of cultivation, I thought invincibility was very far away, but now it is within reach, even if it is only invincibility among the creatures of the lower realm universe.”

Hearing this, the people didn't know what to feel in their hearts.

If it were someone else who said such words, they would only find it ridiculous, but the young man in front of them really had such capital.

He hasn't even stepped into the Great Celestial Realm yet, but he can kill a strong individual like Qingyi. It's conceivable how terrifying he is. This kind of combat power belongs to the category of subverting cognition. How powerful he will be when he reaches the Extreme Celestial Realm is truly impossible to measure with normal thinking.

“Before Lord Jun returns, how will the Immortal Execution Dynasty cope with the Eighth Ancestor?”

“You underestimate my Immortal Execution Dynasty too much. If the Eighth Ancestor dares to come in person, Emperor Beginning Star will probably be his burial ground. You can go to the dynasty without worry. There's no need to worry about the others. With my Immortal Execution Dynasty here, we are not afraid of strong enemies!”

“Also, I hope we can be purer with each other. At that time, perhaps I can send you a chance. Compared to the Starry Sky Ancient Road headquarters, you will get more.”

“Isn't Lord Jun afraid that we…”

“If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't accept you. Since I accept you, I will give you enough trust. I won't say any more unnecessary words. You should also understand my character. With me, those who sow good seeds will surely reap good fruits.”

After he finished speaking, he and Ji Yinlan activated the miniature teleportation array and disappeared on this desolate planet.

“He let us enter the dynasty. The Hall Master really didn't choose the wrong person…”

Xingmeng murmured softly.

“It seems that the Hall Master began to pay attention to and study the forces in the starry sky very early. Choosing Lord Jun and the Immortal Execution Dynasty must have been done with a lot of homework. Just because he is willing to let the Immortal Execution Dynasty face the Eighth Ancestor for our sake, it's not a grievance for us to rely on him.”

“Going to the Immortal Execution Dynasty this time is a good opportunity to contribute. The Western Luo Empire, the Church, and other forces will definitely come in force. We can't be protected for nothing.”

…

Several days later, Jun Wuxie and Ji Yinlan didn't know how far they had traversed the distant starry sky, crossing countless star systems, and finally arrived at the starry sky where the Fallen Star Region was located.

“This universe is vast. Even with our current realm, without following the Starry Sky Ancient Road that predecessors have stepped out, freely traversing is still full of danger…”

He and Ji Yinlan stood in the dark starry sky, looking back at the endless starry sky behind them.

Over the past few days, because the distance traversed was too far and the route deviated from the Starry Sky Ancient Road relatively far, they encountered situations several times and were almost swallowed by the cosmic black hole.

Fortunately, they were not directly teleported to the central area of the black hole, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.

In these experiences, they also saw magnificent scenes and witnessed the process of certain cosmic black holes swallowing star systems.

Those planets, those huge stars, disintegrated under the suction of the black hole. The vast energy, the scorching heat, covered billions of miles. All the matter disintegrated in this process, and then disappeared into the endless darkness in the center of the vortex.

“A Half-Saint is ultimately just a cultivator on the way to becoming a Saint, with limited strength. Even if they cultivate to the peak, they only have the power to destroy large stars. Compared to this vast universe, how insignificant they are. Speaking of which, a Half-Saint has this kind of strength because the order of this universe was too weak at the beginning, resulting in a very low level of material structure. Otherwise, I'm afraid they wouldn't even be able to leave the planet they live on.”

Ji Yinlan's feelings were deeper than Jun Wuxie's.

The universe she was in in her previous life had rules far beyond what the lower realm could compare to.

The material composition of most of that world was different from this world. Not to mention below the Saint Realm, even reaching the Saint Realm, they were extremely insignificant existences in that universe. The damage to the universe was far less than that of a Grandmaster Realm in this universe.

“The Fallen Star Sea is ahead.”

Jun Wuxie's brow blossomed with the light of his soul, evolving a star map in the void.

This was precisely what the Grand Elder of the Eternal Ancient Academy had shared with him, marked with the coordinates of the Fallen Star Region.

"Is that the star region that has already entered the stage of decline?"

Ji Yinlan pointed to the distant starry sky ahead, where a star was visible to the naked eye, a star whose life had entered its twilight years.

It was very conspicuous, different from normal stars, not only in its enormous size but also in its red color, having become a red giant, which is the natural law of decline for all things in the universe, even for stars with billions of years of life, it has entered its old age.

"According to the star chart, it is there." Jun Wuxie activated his Primordial True Eyes, seeing many broken star fragments and countless broken meteorites within that star region.

One could imagine that before that star entered its old age, there would have been even more meteorites.

Its expansion engulfed a large amount of space in the star region, causing the meteorites to perish.

"The sun in the Fallen Star Region probably didn't enter its old age naturally, otherwise, they wouldn't have chosen it as the battlefield for the Heavenly Rank Dao Fruit competition back then; it was mostly caused by human factors."

Jun Wuxie could basically deduce that extremely high-ranking experts at the peak of the Heavenly Rank had fought near that sun back then, or that experts of this level who cultivated fire-attribute techniques had forcibly devoured the energy of that sun, leading to this result.

"Let's go. Someone has organized a grand welcoming ceremony to greet us and cleanse the dust. It wouldn't be good to keep them waiting too long."

He put away the miniature teleportation array and chose to cross on foot. This distance was not far for them. Traveling at more than ten times the speed of sound, they should be able to arrive within an hour.

"Bei Lan has successfully returned to the Imperial Dynasty."

During the journey, Jun Wuxie received news from Ji Beilan, and his mood became even more joyful and relaxed.

Ji Beilan's return to the Imperial Dynasty, bringing back the Qiankun Battle Armor and Battle Garments, would greatly enhance the strength of the top experts of the Imperial Dynasty. Even if the Eighth Ancestor sent experts at the peak of the Heavenly Rank to join forces with other forces to attack, the Immortal Execution Dynasty would still be able to remain invincible.

This was still under the circumstance that Consort Ling did not take action. After all, she was the Regent, and her status was what it was. Unless the other experts could not cope with the enemy, she would not need to take action at all.

And Shangguan Wan'er, if she were to break through to the Heavenly Rank Realm in these days, the top combat power of the Imperial Dynasty would greatly increase again!

An Eternal Legend, a tenth-level peak Heavenly Rank Initial Stage expert, would have the power to contend against even a Heavenly Rank Peak expert. If there were some heaven-defying sublimation techniques and divine abilities, killing a Heavenly Rank Peak expert would not be out of the question, not to mention the Qiankun Battle Garment.
