In an instant.

In the vast starry sky, towering, endless blood-red vines stretched wildly, countless bright red flowers bloomed, Shore Flower flowers directly burned Immortal Divine Power. The domineering and heart-trembling aura soared into the sky, and the bewitching red color rippled in the starry river, turning this area of nearly ten million kilometers into a dark and hellish place.

Boom!

Like man-eating flowers, these bright red blossoms frantically swarmed towards the other four immortal inheritors, with hundreds of blood-red vines covered in slender petals attacking each Alien Race powerhouse.

"Roll!"

The four immortal inheritors unleashed their raging Immortal Divine Power, each employing their unique skills to slash at the vines. The tough and thick vines broke and shattered under their attacks, only to regenerate again and again.

Their weakest members are all nearly Invincible Feng Wang, and their strongest member is also Invincible Feng Wang. They could even escape from the face of Universe Venerable. The Shore Flower is not enough to threaten them.

But just then—

"It seems you really don't have the ability to kill me."

"Then die!"

An invisible divine power descended, and a voice as cold as a god resounded in their minds. Immediately, their bodies froze, and their souls were trapped in an illusion.

"Hiss hiss hiss..."

The blood-red vines were completely intertwined and Strangulation, secreting a special plant toxin that frantically eroded their divine bodies. The fine serrations on the edges of the petals and the faintly visible black, cold teeth in the flowers resembled sharp maws, constantly Annihilation every bit of their divine power.

Soon...

These four powerful immortal inheritors perished directly from the entanglement of the Shore Flower, the blood-red vines enveloping their treasures and World Ring before shrinking back.

Lin Yan was not emotionally affected by this. With his current strength, killing other Immortal God would be extremely easy, except for some Defying Heaven Special Lifeform.

After each of them withstood the killing blows, Venerable Zi Ya and King Fei Jing stared intently at Lin Yan with burning eyes. Even when they saw their teammates fall, they showed no reaction. After all, they were just members of the adventure team, and their deaths were none of their business.

"Four Supreme Treasure!"

"You actually possess four Supreme Treasure!"

King Fei Jing's eyes were filled with madness and greed as he roared excitedly.

At this moment, Venerable Zi Ya was also greatly shaken. He was Universe Venerable, yet he did not possess a single Supreme Treasure, while King Xuanyuan had already displayed four treasures of Supreme Treasure value in such a short time!

Offensive weapon Supreme Treasure, top-tier Soul Supreme Treasure, psychic weapon Supreme Treasure, and top-tier Domain Supreme Treasure!

This is simply unbelievable!

I've never heard of anyone possessing so many Supreme Treasure at the Immortal level, but the thought of the three great treasures that King Xuanyuan wanted to open immediately made me realize that this was probably only a part of King Xuanyuan's enormous wealth!

Even with just these four Supreme Treasure, once you obtain them, you'll be incredibly wealthy!

"I seem to recognize your Domain-type treasure."

Venerable Zi Ya looked at Lin Yan, his voice hoarse. "When the Illusion Moon Sacred Tower was first created, the Heavenly Demon King of the Human Faction obtained the most precious top-level domain treasure and killed the Demon Race Ghost Mound King of the demon Evil Wing Cult Master of Demon Race demon race even publicly offered a bounty for the 'Heavenly Demon King'. I have seen the battle video, including that sword technique just now, which is exactly the same as the Heavenly Demon King's!"

"Moreover, it is said that the Heavenly Demon King is extremely skilled in illusion, and we have already witnessed some of this just now."

"Hahaha, brilliant, truly brilliant! Who would have thought... that the Heavenly Demon King who stirred up the Outer Domain Battlefield with the 'Path of the Wood Beast God the Sword Technique' would actually be the strongest genius of the human race, 'King Xuanyuan'?"

Venerable Zi Ya was also deeply shocked.

The Illusion Moon Sacred Tower was born two thousand years ago, which means that the King Xuanyuan two thousand years ago already had extremely high attainments in the Path of the Beast God, which was not the case as others thought, and his understanding of the Fusion Law was relatively shallow.

"What a terrifying guy, just how many secrets is he hiding?"

Venerable Zi Ya thought to himself, "Judging from the psychic weapon technique he just displayed, its power has already exceeded the scope of Immortal God and is infinitely close to that of Universe Venerable. King Xuanyuan is not Special Lifeform. Among all the immortal inheritors on Purple Thorn Island, only some Special Lifeform forms with extremely high Life Gene Level can surpass him in strength!"

This horrified him.

It's one thing for a human who has cultivated for thousands of years to have such high talent that he is famous throughout the universe, but his strength is also so terrifying!

"I certainly don't lack Supreme Treasure," Lin Yan sneered, "But with your strength, you don't have the ability to obtain them."

"Those four immortal inheritors, even if I'm just taking interest from them, Venerable Zi Ya, I may not be your match now, but if we meet again, your fate will be no different from theirs!"

Wow!

The sound was still echoing in the air when Lin Yan flapped his wings and instantly increased his speed to fly away.

A simple exchange is sufficient. Unless it's a war of attrition, his strength is not enough to pose a threat to Venerable Zi Ya and King Fei Jing. He should leave when necessary.

If he were to provoke some kind of Universe Overlord, he would be powerless to resist.

"King Xuanyuan, don't even think about escaping! I, King Fei Jing, am famous for my tracking skills and have an exceptional talent in spatial manipulation. I am naturally faster, and my divine body far surpasses yours. Let's see who is faster, you or me."

While King Fei Jing Barking also increased his speed, but he quickly shut his mouth because he was shocked to find that the distance between himself and King Xuanyuan was constantly widening.

The other person's speed... is indeed faster than his!

"King Xuanyuan cultivates both space and time, and his flight technique integrates the subtleties of the two laws of space and time, so his speed is naturally extremely fast," Venerable Zi Ya transmitted.

"Divine power forms threads!"

"A cage!"

A hint of madness appeared in the eyes of the King Fei Jing. A surge of divine power began to gather, and with a sudden swipe of its claws, hundreds of threads of divine power shot through the sky, chasing after Lin Yan.

"Snort."

With a flap of his wings, Lin Yan traced a winding path in mid-air. At the same time, the Bronze Compass reappeared, and under Lin Yan's powerful Will and Consciousness, the axe light soared into the sky!

"Boom!"

The axe light soared into the sky, incredibly concentrated, as if cleaving the Firmament in two, directly shattering dozens of threads of divine power, and enveloping King Fei Jing.

"Hmm?" King Fei Jing suddenly swung his claws.

Boom!

The two collided, and the void shattered!

The unparalleled impact force, transmitted through the claws of the King Fei Jing, reached his divine body. A layer of golden light faintly appeared on the surface of his divine body, which was his only Supreme Treasure "Golden Zhen Hou King Armor." With his Law Comprehension, he could activate it to the second level, reducing the external impact force to one-thousandth, and it did not cause him any harm.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Venerable Zi Ya tried to rush up and entangle Lin Yan.

Call!

The endless blue starry river unfolded once more, and their flight speed immediately decreased. Lin Yan was incredibly fast. As soon as he escaped the Space Lock, the surrounding spacetime trembled and distorted, and spatial vortexes immediately appeared, instantly forming several wormholes, each leading to a different location.

Lin Yan's figure disappeared into one of the spatial vortexes.

Immediately, all the spatial vortexes disappeared.

"No!" King Fei Jing roared angrily as he watched Lin Yan's figure disappear.

"Venerable Zi Ya, you can sense all Space Fluctuation within a radius of ten light-years. Quickly sense the location of his teleportation. Let's chase after him. He is human, and his divine body is insignificant. He can't sustain burning Divine Power for long. He's doomed!" King Fei Jing hurriedly looked at Venerable Zi Ya and urged him.

"I have already sensed it." Venerable Zi Ya's face was ashen. "I don't know what secret technique this King Xuanyuan used, but I simultaneously detected several Space Fluctuation within a light-year radius around us, in various directions around us. I have no way of knowing where he teleported to!"

"What?!" King Fei Jing roared, "These are four Supreme Treasure! Four Supreme Treasure!"

Venerable Zi Ya was also heartbroken, watching the four Supreme Treasure teleport away was worse than death for him.

"There's still a chance," Venerable Zi Ya said. "There are seven Space Fluctuation in total. Although the locations are all quite dangerous according to the data, we can't worry about that now."

King Fei Jing nodded repeatedly, urging, "Hurry!"

Wow!

Based on these Space Fluctuation, Venerable Zi Ya chose one of them and stumbled upon the lair of a Universe Venerable level being.

"King Xuanyuan!"

"King Xuanyuan!"

I will definitely kill you!

The wrathful King Fei Jing roared, causing the heavens and earth to tremble.

Lin Yan passed through the wormhole and instantly arrived at a void 25 light-years away, a safe place he had passed through earlier.

"Haha, I wonder if those two idiots will keep chasing after them." Lin Yan stood in the void and laughed.

Having mastered the third level of the Black Hole Sacred Body, one can easily lock onto any coordinate location within a radius of 100 light-years using the gravity of Black Hole. Therefore, Lin Yan remained calm when facing Venerable Zi Ya and King Fei Jing, knowing that if he wanted to escape, they would have no way to stop him.

Before leaving, he deliberately left some loose ends, specifically choosing some dangerous places from the information, thinking that with the allure of the Supreme Treasure... even if it was dangerous, those two unlucky guys wouldn't easily let go.

He shook his head and began to analyze the previous simple contest.

"In terms of strength, I am still far inferior to a true Universe Venerable, but compared to King Fei Jing, I am almost equal."

Although King Fei Jing was able to defeat the Universe Venerable, it was through his Talent Secret Method. Soul Attack were ineffective against Lin Yan. Purely relying on his own strength, Lin Yan even felt that he still had a slight advantage.

The Celestial Origin Wheel, though Ordinary Supreme Treasure, can exert an effect similar to a "set" when fully combined with the three major systems of celestial bodies, space, and time, and its power barely crosses the threshold of "High-class Supreme Treasure".

The third move of "Celestial Movement," "Cosmic Creation," is extremely profound. Unlike the first two moves, it can be considered an "Ultimate Technique." Lin Yan only mastered it in recent years. Although he cannot unleash its full power, it is no less powerful than his self-created Peak Ultimate Skill.

In addition, his Soul Amplitude has reached near perfection, his mental power base can withstand more than 2 billion times the World Lord peak, and when he controls it with his heaven-defying Will and Consciousness... his power soars even higher!

When martial artists attack, they require less Will and Consciousness. However Mental Master lineage places great emphasis on Will and Consciousness. Weak Will and Consciousness will result in weak attacks from mental weapons, while strong Will and Consciousness will lead to a surge in strength.

All these factors combined make it no less powerful than the King Fei Jing Life Gene Level advanced.

"Haha, I estimate that my strength will only reach the pinnacle of the World Master level after several thousand years." Lin Yan smiled. "By then, I should be able to gain the recognition of the Ancestor God Cult and be granted the authority to Inheritance Land."

There was a hint of expectation in his eyes.

"Next, let's change direction and head towards the Initial Star. The Feng Tian Domain is fraught with danger, so we should be careful." Lin Yan flipped his hand, and a palm-sized crystal palace appeared in his palm, faintly glowing with golden light, surrounded by purple energy.

"Haha, with the Palace of Lingguang Purple Qi, as long as I don't encounter any powerhouses above the level of Universe Overlord, they pose no threat to me and I can come and go as I please." With a thought, Lin Yan entered the crystal palace.

Whoosh!

The Purple Palace of Lingguang accelerated rapidly, leaving a trail of purple light in the void before leaping into a spatial vortex and disappearing into the void.

Glory World, in the open-air plaza.

Countless inheritors gathered here, chatting and laughing with each other.

"In the end, King Xuanyuan's grasp of the Path of the Beast God is not profound enough. He abandons all treasures in the virtual world and relies entirely on secret techniques based on the Fusion Law. Haha, even Bug Hunter King had to bow down back then. King Xuanyuan hasn't even shown his face once since we challenged him. It seems he has backed down!"

"Haha, he's not backing down now. Does that mean he's really prepared to fight and let us trample him in the Battle World?"

"I estimate that he has received millions, or even tens of millions, of challenge letters during this period. Many inheritors have sent them."

"The more the better, since King Xuanyuan can't beat anyone anyway."

"Ha ha..."

These strangely shaped Alien Race laughed and joked in the open square.

No matter how extraordinary King Xuanyuan's talent was, he still ended up looking rather pathetic. In the universe, strength is ultimately the most important thing. Without outstanding performance in terms of strength, one cannot truly win the respect of other powerful beings.

Suddenly--

"Hmm? King Xuanyuan just accepted my challenge."

"What? He actually accepted the challenge? You're incredibly lucky to have the chance to teach this peerless genius a lesson in the Battle World. What a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity... Uh, he agreed to fight me too."

"I also received a reply."

"Me too."

At this moment, in the open-air square of the Glory World, a large number of Alien Race powerhouses were looking through their Black Book, and one by one they had received replies agreeing to fight.

"Has the King Xuanyuan gone mad?"

"How many challenges did he accept? It must be at least several hundred thousand."

"Perhaps he heard some rumors and his pride was hurt. Haha, geniuses who have had it all the time are always like this, they can't keep their tempers up at all. I'm getting more and more excited to give this famous King Xuanyuan a good beating in the Battle World."

"Interesting, very interesting."

The inheritors became even more excited, and the atmosphere was filled with joy.

King Li Shuo and King Chaman, who were in the corner of the square, were somewhat bewildered.

"King Xuanyuan, why does King Xuanyuan accept the challenge?"

"When we went there last time, he didn't seem to react much to this, did he? What happened?"

They couldn't understand why King Xuanyuan would engage in such a battle he was destined to lose. It would be understandable if he chose the weakest opponents, but the current situation clearly did not.

At this moment—

In the Glory World, a golden-haired, golden-eyed powerhouse, slightly hunched over and resembling a werewolf, appeared. He surveyed the scene in the open-air plaza, recalling the painful experience of being toyed with by King Xuanyuan. His anger intensified, and his icy voice rang out, silencing the murmurs of the other inheritors:

"Laugh? What are you laughing at?"

"You've all fallen into King Xuanyuan's trap without realizing it. You all think he's weak in Fusion Law, but you don't know... that 'Heavenly Demon King' who became famous two thousand years ago is him!"

"That guy has been studying the Path of the Beast God for a long time. What he is truly proficient in is the fusion of Mu Kong with the Path of the Beast God. This is not a challenge, but giving him Glory Points and humiliating yourselves!"

The King Fei Jing Feijing spoke, the more agitated he felt.

With so many Glory Points, King Xuanyuan can now rule the Inheritance Land. With his extraordinary talent, how could he not become Universe Venerable?

If he's this strong even when he's immortal, what will he be like when he becomes Universe Venerable?

"What, what Heavenly Demon King?"

"The one who killed the Demon Race Ghost Mound King in the Outer Domain Battlefield? How could he possibly be King Xuanyuan? King Fei Jing, where did you get this information from?"

Several inheritors asked the question.

"You'll soon find out whether I'm telling the truth or not," King Fei Jing chuckled, then vanished from the open-air plaza.

Immediately, a buzz of discussion arose in the open square.

Most inheritors are not very familiar with this.

"The Heavenly Demon King, is it the King Xuanyuan?"

"He achieved extremely high attainments in the Path of the Beast God as early as two thousand years ago? How did he do that? How is that possible?"

The powerful figures of the Four Great Peak Races alliances had a clearer understanding of the events on the Outer Domain Battlefield. Seeing King Fei Jing speak with such certainty and the unusual nature of King Xuanyuan's acceptance of the battle, they immediately believed him to some extent, feeling somewhat bewildered.

If it's true...

What will happen?
