Within the Ming Realm dimension.
Lu Chen took out the Heavenly Dao origin of Shrouding the Heavens and crushed it in his hand!
Boom!
The Heavenly Dao origin of the Shrouding the Heavens World shattered into a shower of light that poured down from the skies of the Ming Realm.
It contained the cultivation system of Shrouding the Heavens, supreme emperor weapons, supreme emperor scriptures, and all kinds of immortal herbs. They scattered across the Ming Realm, awaiting discovery by those destined to find them.
By now, humanity had established countless factions, including sects, sacred lands, empires, and dynasties, and was developing at an astonishing pace.
Some factions practiced the Ming Realm's native armor cultivation system, while others practiced the Super Saiyan system.
Lu Chen made a point of glancing over the human factions practicing the armor system, and what he saw surprised him.
Someone had actually grasped the mysteries of the Law of Fire and summoned the Flame Dragon Armor.
Clad in the Flame Dragon Armor, that person had smashed through every obstacle, established his own empire on a continent, and named it the Flame Dragon Empire.
Lu Chen nodded in satisfaction. This person had good talent and had earned the initial recognition of the Law of Fire. As his strength increased and his understanding of the Law of Fire deepened, he would eventually be able to summon other fire-type armors, such as Xingtian, Nawa, Kapo, and Bayan.
Meanwhile, the eastern part of the Ming Realm was filled with human factions practicing the Super Saiyan system.
The strongest among them had already reached Super Saiyan Third Grade.
If the first and second grades could only destroy one or several enormous celestial bodies, the third could destroy small star systems like the solar system. The jump in combat power was considerable.
But to Lu Chen, the Super Saiyan system was nothing special. Even at its peak, it only reached the pinnacle of Beyond-Single-Universe-level, barely touching the lower threshold of the multiverse level.
Across the myriad worlds, that level of combat power was still pretty pathetic.
At least it was far stronger than those worlds that dressed themselves up as high fantasy but were really just low-end martial arts settings.
(Douluo, Battle Through the Heavens: You might as well call us out by name.)
Lu Chen looked toward Su Yuexi.
At that moment, the female Heavenly Dao was strolling across a snowfield, looking like a spirit of ice and snow, pure and utterly flawless.
Unfortunately, this stunningly beautiful, graceful female Heavenly Dao had already been thoroughly molded to Lu Chen's tastes.
Sensing someone watching her, Su Yuexi looked up and met Lu Chen's gaze. A moment later, her face flushed scarlet, and she turned away and ran.
Lu Chen smiled and left the Ming Realm dimension.
He wandered around the universe and picked up plenty of information.
For instance, Dimension Demons such as the Lord of Darkness Dormammu, the Lord of Hell Mephisto, the Serpent God Set, and Chthon had joined forces. No one knew what they were plotting, but it certainly could not be anything good. These Dimension Demons were notorious throughout the universe.
Mephisto in particular often traveled through different universes in the guise of a kindly old man, tricking people out of their souls to gain power.
However, Mephisto did not want just any soul. It had to be something special.
Ghost Rider was a prime example.
Ghost Rider's human host would rather surrender his soul and make a deal with a demon than abandon the mortal world.
Souls with such selfless love interested Mephisto most, which was why every generation of Ghost Rider met a miserable end.
The Celestials had not been stirring up trouble lately and had quieted down considerably.
But every powerhouse at Multiverse-level or above knew that the Celestials were definitely up to no good.
Lu Chen had no interest in any of this. He opened the Transcendent-Dimensional Chat Group. Tushan Susu had previously asked him to descend into the Fox Spirit World.
Heavenly Dao: "@Snack-Loving Tushan Susu, I'm finished."
Tushan Susu soon replied, "Brother Heavenly Dao, I'll send you the World Coordinates."
"Notification: Group member Snack-Loving Tushan Susu has sent World Coordinates to group member Heavenly Dao!"
Lu Chen clicked accept.
Hum!
A galactic vortex appeared beside Lu Chen, twisting and spinning violently.
Lu Chen stepped inside.
Boom!
The heavens and earth changed color as a thunderous roar erupted!
The Fox Spirit World's top powerhouses immediately sensed an unimaginably terrifying presence descending into their world!
Lu Chen knew that the Fox Spirit World was an exceedingly weak minor plane, so he had completely restrained his aura before descending.
Even so, the Fox Spirit World could not withstand the physical might of the Ming Realm's Heavenly Dao and immediately showed signs of collapse.
In an instant, the apocalypse descended upon the entire Fox Spirit World!
Earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, and an ice age!
Every natural disaster converged and erupted at once!
Countless cultivators in the Fox Spirit World died in the terrifying catastrophe!
"Waaah! What's happening?"
Over in Tushan, Tushan Susu burst into tears.
"Brother Heavenly Dao, is this because you descended?"
Tushan Susu began to regret it. She should not have asked Lu Chen to descend, because countless fox spirits were dying in the catastrophe!
"It is."
A gentle voice rang out as Lu Chen appeared before Tushan Susu.
He looked at Tushan Susu and marveled inwardly.
Just what I'd expect from Tushan Susu. She really is adorable!
"B-Brother Heavenly Dao, could you please stop all this?" Tushan Susu pleaded through her tears.
"No problem."
Lu Chen swept his hand through the air.
In an instant, the terrifying disasters that had been erupting continuously receded like the tide. The entire Fox Spirit World returned to its original state, and all the dead cultivators came back to life.
Tushan Susu's beautiful eyes lit up. "What incredible power! I want power like that!"
Lu Chen could not resist reaching out to pat Tushan Susu's little head.
"Who are you?! How dare you treat my sister like that!"
Just then, a sharp female shout rang out.
Lu Chen turned to see a tall fox spirit rushing toward him.
It was Tushan Susu's older sister, the leader of the Demon Alliance, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Tushan Yaya.
Boom!
A purple celestial fox phantom appeared in the air and charged at Lu Chen, carrying tremendous demonic power!
Tushan Susu cried out in alarm, "Sister, no! Brother Heavenly Dao is..."
"How rude."
Lu Chen shook his head with an amused smile.
The next moment, the purple celestial fox roared as it lunged right up to him!
Bang!
A ring of white air exploded outward, and the purple celestial fox shattered inch by inch!
Tushan Yaya's pupils contracted in utter shock. "He's so strong! He neutralized my attack without even moving."
As she spoke, she prepared to unleash everything she had and attack again.
Tushan Susu immediately stepped forward to stop her. "Sister, stop! Brother Heavenly Dao isn't a bad person!"
Tushan Yaya stopped. She stared at Lu Chen and racked her brains, but could not figure out who this mysterious powerhouse was.
There's no one like him in Tushan. Could he be a powerhouse from our sworn enemies, the Wangquan Family?
If this man truly was a powerhouse on humanity's side, he would spell utter disaster for Tushan's fox spirit clan!
"Sister, Brother Heavenly Dao is here to help me!" Tushan Susu said earnestly.
"Help you?"
"Yes, sister. I can't explain everything right now, but Brother Heavenly Dao means us no harm."
"All right."
Tushan Yaya stopped dwelling on the matter.
Tushan Susu looked at Lu Chen, blinking her beautiful eyes expectantly. "Brother Heavenly Dao, will you come back to Tushan with us?"
Lu Chen smiled gently and ruffled the adorable little girl's hair. "Let's go."
