Tianlu: The True Use of the Law of Devouring

At the same time.

Deep within the deepest reaches of the Kunlun Sacred Realm, at the base of the supreme spiritual vein.

In the shadows, the consciousness formed by the very first wisp of Primordial Yin Qi in the world peered through the earth veins of Kunlun Mountain, staring fixedly in the direction Lu Wu was carrying Tianlu.

When she realized that the direction Lu Wu pointed toward was the very blessed land where her Accompanying Birth Dao Field resided, a tempest of shock and fury erupted in her heart, and she began to feel a deep sense of distress.

That place, shielded by a Xiantian Array, nurtured the top-tier opportunity that belonged solely to her.

The array protecting that opportunity felt incredibly intimate to her.

She had tested it from afar before; with just a single thought, she could cause this Xiantian Array to open its path and allow her to pass through at will.

Once she successfully took human form and emerged, everything within that array would naturally be her treasure.

She never expected that someone would beat her to it today, breaking directly into the Kunlun Sacred Realm and intending to snatch away her opportunity.

"No! This absolutely cannot happen!"

"I must make this greedy Pixiu get out of my Kunlun Sacred Realm!"

However, when she recalled the scene of Tianlu easily suppressing Lu Wu just moments ago, a deep sense of powerlessness rose within her.

Even Lu Wu, the Kaiming Beast at the mid-stage of the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm, had been instantly subdued by his immense martial power.

Could she, a wisp of Primordial Yin Qi that hadn't even taken form yet, defeat a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal even if she exhausted all her foundations?!

Reason told her that rushing out would be a path to certain death.

But watching her accompanying opportunity being seized, she could not sit still no matter what.

"Forget it!"

"You shameless Pixiu, do you really think this Palace's Dao Field is a place where you can run wild as you please?"

With that, the wisp of Primordial Yin Qi transformed into an intangible, formless shadow and fled rapidly in the direction of Tianlu.

Meanwhile, in another hidden location within the Kunlun Sacred Realm.

At this moment, the Kaiming Beast Lu Wu was carrying Tianlu, landing steadily on the edge of a valley.

The spiritual energy surrounding this valley was so dense it had almost turned into liquid, and the faint, rhythmic sounds of the Great Dao echoed through the void.

Lu Wu stopped, his massive body crouching slightly as he turned his head to speak respectfully to Tianlu on his back.

"Heavenly Venerable, this is the place with the Xiantian Array that this small beast mentioned."

"This array was formed naturally and is closely connected to the earth veins of the Kunlun Sacred Realm; it must surely nurture a rare and supreme opportunity inside."

Tianlu stood up lazily from Lu Wu's back, his gaze lifting to look in the direction Lu Wu indicated, carefully sizing up the Xiantian Great Array before him.

The array's light screen appeared chaotic in color, with countless complex and profound Xiantian array patterns flickering in and out of existence upon it.

As the array circulated, it seemed to form a world of its own, isolating all prying eyes from the outside.

"It is indeed as you said, a truly excellent blessed land!"

Tianlu nodded in satisfaction, a trace of greed flashing in his eyes.

Relying on his divine sense as a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, Tianlu could clearly perceive the terrifying nature of this Xiantian Array.

The level of this array was extremely high, containing the mysteries of creation from when the world first opened. Among all the Xiantian arrays he had ever seen, aside from the top-tier array that protected the Twenty-Four Petal Creation Green Lotus, this one was the most profound.

Subsequently, Tianlu calmed his mind and began to pace back and forth along the edge of the array, pondering how to break through this obstructive Xiantian Array.

Initially, Tianlu's intention was to rely on the Law of Space he had already mastered to discern the flaws in the array's spatial operation.

After all, any array existing within the Primordial World must rely on space.

As long as he found the weak points where the array's space folded and intersected, he could execute the art of spatial traversal, slipping inside unnoticed to claim the opportunity for himself.

But just as he prepared to mobilize the power of the Law of Space, a bold idea suddenly flashed through his mind.

I don't just master the Law of Space alone; I also have the Law of Devouring!

Tianlu calculated in his heart.

If he could directly use the Law of Devouring to consume the patterns of this Xiantian Array, not only would he break the array, but he might also be able to assimilate the Primordial Dao Rhythm and the origin of the array's power for his own use. Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?

Thinking of this, Tianlu did not hesitate.

He stood firm at the edge of the Xiantian Array, his four limbs gripping the ground tightly as he suddenly opened his mouth, which seemed capable of swallowing the heavens and the earth.

"Law of Devouring, devour for me!"

Accompanied by a low roar from Tianlu, a terrifying, extreme power of devouring erupted from his maw.

In an instant, Tianlu's mouth seemed to transform into a bottomless black hole, pulling and distorting even the surrounding light and space.

The once indestructible Xiantian Array light screen began to tremble violently the moment it touched the power of the Law of Devouring.

One by one, the Xiantian array patterns shimmering with chaotic luster were forcibly stripped from the light screen as if being unraveled, turning into streams of light that flowed continuously into Tianlu's gaping maw.

For a time, as the Law of Devouring was unleashed to its full extent, the spiritual energy of this world formed a massive vortex.

And the once-flawless Xiantian Array began to weaken at a speed visible to the naked eye under Tianlu's frantic consumption.

Standing to the side, the Kaiming Beast Lu Wu witnessed this scene with his own eyes, his heart filled with utter shock.

"Is this a Pixiu?!"

However, after the initial shock, he watched as Tianlu focused his full attention on dealing with the Xiantian Array. Lu Wu's eyes darted around, and the urge to retreat suddenly sprouted in his heart.

He pondered to himself.

This Pixiu's strength is unfathomable, and his conduct is so overbearing and unreasonable.

If I let him get used to sitting on my back, I fear he might truly treat me as his full-time mount for the rest of my life.

I, Lu Wu, am at the very least a divine beast of heaven and earth from Kunlun Mountain. I am barely considered a peer to this Pixiu, so how could I remain beneath him for long and suffer such humiliation?

Thinking of this, Lu Wu carefully restrained his aura and inched backward bit by bit, wanting to sneak away while Tianlu was too preoccupied to notice him.

Although Tianlu was exerting his full strength to utilize the Law of Devouring, as a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, how could his divine sense be anything but sharp?

How could Lu Wu's little movements possibly escape his notice?

However, breaking this Xiantian Array would require a significant amount of time.

Once he obtained the opportunity inside, if he still wished to hunt for treasures in the Kunlun Sacred Realm, he could simply catch Lu Wu again later.

There was no need to stop him from leaving at this moment.

After all, this was the Kunlun Sacred Realm, and Lu Wu's home was right here; the monk might run, but the temple could not.

With the Law of Space and Law of Luck he commanded, finding Lu Wu again within this Kunlun Sacred Realm would be as easy as turning over his hand.

Seeing that Lu Wu had completely slipped away, Tianlu withdrew his focus and began to exert his full effort into utilizing the Law of Devouring.

He drove the mana within his body to its limit, and the intensity of the devouring surged once more.

More Xiantian array patterns were forcibly torn away, transforming into wisps of flowing light that vanished into the mouth of the Pixiu.

However, Tianlu had always been cautious in his actions. Even while breaking the array with all his might, he still left a wisp of divine sense on the outside, constantly monitoring the surrounding movements to prevent any unexpected guests from launching a sudden attack.
