The Opponent Who Knew the Future, Xu Tianluo
Dark.
In the depths of boundless darkness, a throne made of shattered stars floats in the void.
On the throne, Xu Tianluo rested his chin on one hand, his scarlet robe hanging down, the hem flowing with a viscous, blood-like dark light.
His face was hidden in the shadows, only his eyes—eyes that seemed to devour all light—coldly watched the figure kneeling at his feet.
"My lord... we have been lying in wait here for a hundred years, how much longer must we wait?"
The one who spoke was a man clad in black armor, with a third vertical pupil on his forehead, which was trembling uneasily at the moment.
He is "Zangtong," one of the three great Demon General under Xu Tianluo, commanding tens of thousands of elite troops.
Xu Tianluo did not answer.
He simply raised his hand slowly, his fingertips making a light sweeping motion—
"Laugh!"
Suddenly, Zangtong's third eye exploded, spraying out black blood.
He groaned, but dared not raise his hand to wipe it, instead lowering his head even further.
"A hundred years?" Xu Tianluo's voice was soft, yet it caused the entire void to tremble. "Think about my plan."
How dare you say 'a hundred years' is too long?
Beneath the throne, two other figures knelt simultaneously.
On the left is a woman with a seductive figure, her skin as pale as a corpse, and a chain like a living snake wrapped around her neck.
She is the "Mingfei," in charge of the spells of life and death.
On the right was a hunched old man, shrouded in Gray Mist, with only his white bones occasionally peeking out from his sleeves.
He is the "Ku Laoren," a master of puppetry.
All three were top experts personally recruited by Xu Tianluo, yet they didn't dare to even breathe loudly at this moment.
Xu Tianluo slowly rose to his feet, his long robes fluttering even without wind.
As he moved, the entire dark space began to distort, and countless Star Fragment reassembled behind him, transforming into a vast Star Chart.
The Star Chart clearly shows the projection of the Immortal Path!
Beneath this High Antiquity path of fortuitous opportunity, deeply hidden by the Ji Clan, lies a menacing void rift.
Deep within the crack, countless scarlet eyes could be vaguely seen peering into the darkness.
"No one would have imagined that the so-called Ancient Immortal Path is nothing more than a relic on the back of the World Devouring Beast." Xu Tianluo's voice carried a kind of manic pleasure. "The end of the Immortal Path is the Outer Realm, where even the Heavenly Emperor will be unable to perceive it."
"Such a good opportunity, such a good grave, specially prepared for you, Qin Wangchuan!"
He raised his hand and grabbed, and the Star Chart suddenly magnified, revealing the scene deep within the crack—
There, a massive, densely packed army of Alien Race is gathering!
There are "World Devouring Beast" covered in scales, "Tianlu Clan" with bone wings on their backs, and "Chaos Giant Demon" as large as mountains.
These elite Alien Race, who should have existed beyond the Outer Realm, are now all lying in wait here!
"Almost there... almost there..." Xu Tianluo murmured to himself, his eyes suddenly becoming unfocused.
Xu Tianluo's origin is extremely special; he was born in the future.
This causes him to exist simultaneously in the past, present, and future.
Even in death, one can revisit oneself at some point in time.
With this ability, Xu Tianluo once thought he was invincible.
Attributing it to the bloodthirsty and belligerent nature of the Alien Race, he certainly had a grand and ambitious goal—to invade the Ten Directions Immortal Court!
Once the Immortal Court falls, the coveted high-quality Blood Food and treasures of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces will all fall into our hands.
Everything went smoothly.
Until Xu Tianluo was destroyed by Qin Wangchuan with a single sword strike.
It was a bright day, the sky was bathed in a snowy white light.
But it wasn't the light of the sun or anything like that; it was Qin Wangchuan's Daoist magic illuminating the Outer Realm heavens.
Countless strange magical techniques descended from the sky, bringing only destruction.
He's a monster.
If Qin Wudao was invincible in terms of strength, then Qin Wangchuan was overwhelmingly superior in terms of talent.
Like a rising star, he emerged out of nowhere, leading Human Race powerhouses into the Outer Realm with the cultivation of Quasi-Emperor, and this step has never stopped since it began.
Getting stronger and stronger!
The final sword strike pierced the sky, blinding all the Alien Race.
To avoid that outcome, he must nip Qin Wangchuan in the bud before he rises to power!
In addition, the Qin Clan was really an eyesore, and that damned Divine Tree spread throughout the heavens, protecting the entire Ten Directions Immortal Court tightly.
Thus, a new plan was launched.
The plan was to first dismantle the Qin Clan, but because the Heavenly Emperor was in charge, this plan could only be implemented from within.
This quickly gave Xu Tianluo an opportunity.
He wasn't the only Alien Race coveting the Ten Directions Immortal Court; other Alien Race were also looking for an opportunity.
Qin Hongchen, the Liudao Child of the Qin Clan, has been searching for his lover's reincarnation.
This is a perfect opportunity.
Xu Tianluo didn't move, but the other Alien Race couldn't hold back any longer.
They used certain methods to find Qin Hongchen's reincarnated lover, Fang Yun, in advance, killed her, and then ordered someone to take her place.
At a crucial juncture, an attack was launched against the most important figure in the Qin Clan — the Divine Son Qin Wangchuan.
It was a success.
Qin Wangchuan was seriously injured, enraging the Qin Clan.
Qin Hongchen was executed for protecting her lover, which severely weakened the Qin Clan.
Those Alien Race were smug, believing they had dealt a heavy blow to the Qin Clan.
But what followed was an even fiercer counterattack.
In Xu Tianluo's view...
This strike wasn't deep enough, nor ruthless enough, to dismantle the Qin Clan.
But he came to a conclusion from this experience.
"Dealing with just one family isn't enough; it won't shake their foundation. Perhaps... we could drag the Ji Clan and Li Clan into this as well!"
Thus, Xu Tianluo retraced his steps countless times during his battle with Qin Wangchuan.
Finally, a special time point was found: the Immortal Path Trial.
"Deal with Li Qingluan, sever the connection between the Li Clan and the Qin Clan, and then take action one by one to sow discord between them."
Xu Tianluo snapped out of his reverie and looked at the Star Chart.
This plan has been tested several times and is almost foolproof.
As for why they didn't directly attack Qin Wangchuan, Xu Tianluo had certainly tried, but the outcome...
He died a horrible death.
"Although the ambush on the Immortal Path was set up a hundred years in advance, the target was Qin Wangchuan, but for the sake of the bigger picture, Li Qingluan had to be dealt with first."
"However... the expression on Qin Wangchuan's face when he learned that the End of Immortal Path wasn't some kind of fortuitous opportunity, but rather the stronghold of Alien Race... tsk tsk, it's truly captivating."
Xu Tianluo smacked his lips as he spoke, his expression expectant.
He then turned to look at the Immortal Path in the Star Chart, a cruel smile curving his lips.
"Qin Wangchuan, I want you to watch your fiancée turn to ashes before your very eyes!"
"If you knew what awaited you at the End of Immortal Path, you would still... Oh! You don't know."
While they were making their plans, the various Dao Child of the Qin Clan naturally noticed Qin Wangchuan's unusual behavior.
In fact, although Qin Wangchuan couldn't tell everything, he still told his Second Brother part of it, as a backup plan.
Qin Xuanji, meanwhile, secretly gathered everyone together behind Qin Wangchuan's back.
