Ling Tian and the others knew full well that the Lord of the Universe was immensely powerful. Even now, after they had broken through to the Twenty-ninth Heaven of Near-Saint, they had little confidence they could defeat him, let alone those cultivators who had yet to reach the Near-Saint Twentieth Heaven. And those cultivators were still inside the Lord of the Universe's universe. There was only one reason they could use their archery skills to pierce the firmament and endure the final tribulation for so long: the Lord of the Universe was deliberately going easy on them.
The Lord of the Universe was no one with time to kill. If he was deliberately going easy on them, it was naturally because he wanted the cultivators he had chosen to do something for him. Or, as Ling Tian and the others had surmised, those cultivators had the potential to reach Sainthood. Then the Lord of the Universe could possess them in the future and improve his own condition.
In short, since those people had been chosen by the Lord of the Universe, they were certain to "break free" of his restraints. That meant they would surely manage to escape the God Realm. Both Ling Tian and Little Devourer were utterly certain of this. What Little Devourer worried about now was whether the cultivators who escaped the God Realm could make it out of the Demon God Forbidden Ground alive. After all, they would be surrounded by so many cultivators; escaping unscathed would be incredibly difficult. Their cultivation levels were far lower than those of the cultivators surrounding the Demon God Forbidden Ground. Any cultivator at the Twenty-second Heaven of Near-Saint could easily defeat them, and cultivators at that level were practically at the bottom of the pack among those surrounding the
