The Lord of the Universe's peak cultivation might not have been the strongest among the Outer Realm Cultivators, but it was certainly beyond that of the vast majority. The soul restriction he had mastered was undoubtedly extremely powerful. That meant there were very few Outer Realm Cultivators who could undo it—perhaps not a single one.
