Boom!
A pillar of light shot into the sky, piercing the heavens. Phenomena filled the sky, with chaotic energy surging and countless celestial lights swirling around.
In the void, chaos ascended, and one after another, mystical green lotuses took root, swaying gracefully and exuding profound elegance.
Countless celestial palaces emerged, emitting boundless celestial light, with tens of thousands of true immortals appearing simultaneously. At the end of the celestial palaces, a towering Immortal King sat cross-legged, his gaze sweeping across the heavens like the Great Dao itself.
Chaotic green lotuses sprouted, and the Immortal King descended upon the Nine Heavens. One after another, these heaven-defying phenomena appeared, creating an awe-inspiring scene.
And this was just one of the many phenomena.
“What is that?”
Countless beings and cultivators in this world were startled, each rising into the air, their gazes filled with shock as they witnessed these scenes.
Rumble!
In Wanxiang City, numerous grand saint arrays were instantly activated, their divine light dazzling. Countless runes soared into the sky, one after another, rotating like great stars with a thunderous roar.
Each great star emitted divine light, embodying myriad rules and the power of the Saint Dao, suppressing the myriad phenomena.
But even so, the phenomena remained incredibly terrifying, perceptible across millions of miles.
Boom!
Moreover, a tremendous devouring force emerged, drawing in the vast essence of the entire continent, including the spiritual energy from the heavens above and the energy from numerous dimensional spaces, all surging like a tidal wave.
It was as if a peerless Great Saint, an unparalleled existence, was sitting in the middle of the continent, devouring boundless essence, seemingly capable of swallowing the entire continent in one breath.
“Buzz, buzz, buzz—”
Across the True Saint Continent, numerous supreme beings, many Saints, and even hidden Saint Kings all turned their gazes towards the phenomenon, their expressions filled with shock.
“This is bad. At this rate, the entire continent will be drained in one breath!”
Su Changsheng’s face changed instantly.
From the very beginning, he had a premonition that his child’s aptitude would be extraordinary, so he had set up numerous arrays and personally intervened to conceal the power of the phenomena.
But even so, the phenomenon remained incredibly terrifying.
Moreover!
Not only was there the phenomenon, but the child was also devouring the boundless essence of heaven and earth. At this rate, the entire continent would be drained in one breath.
How terrifying was this?
“What kind of physique is this to be so heaven-defying?”
Su Changsheng was shaken, but he did not hesitate. His figure appeared in the room, and he picked up the child who was emitting boundless celestial light, then immediately vanished from the world.
He needed to head to the outer starry sky.
“What kind of terrifying devouring power is this? Could it be that an unparalleled prodigy is being born?”
“Impossible. No matter how terrifying a prodigy is, they couldn’t be this strong. It must be a supreme being breaking through to the Great Saint realm!”
“This phenomenon is earth-shattering, almost like the birth of a supreme treasure. But that terrifying devouring power feels more like a living being, so it shouldn’t be a divine treasure!”
Across the True Saint Continent, numerous Saints murmured to themselves, their eyes flickering with both desire and unease. They were eager to investigate but feared provoking a powerful figure.
If a supreme being was breaking through to the Great Saint realm and they happened to disturb them, it would result in an unending enmity.
For a moment, all the Saints hesitated.
“Hmph. I don’t believe someone is breaking through. It must be a supreme treasure being born!”
In the heavens and earth, an old man in a black robe snorted coldly, his expression arrogant, exuding a terrifying aura.
Without hesitation, he headed straight for the source of the phenomenon, which was Wanxiang City.
“It’s the Black Demon Elder. How can he be so bold?”
“His lifespan is nearing its end. If he doesn’t break through to become a Saint King, he has less than a thousand years left. Naturally, he doesn’t fear any so-called mysterious supreme being!”
“Very well, let him scout ahead. If there truly is a supreme treasure, it won’t be too late to act then!”
Saints and Saint Kings from various factions noticed the Black Demon Elder, their eyes flickering as they chose to observe for now.
Due to the opening of the Great Saint Secret Realm, many Saints from other continents had come to the True Saint Continent, all seeking to seize the opportunities left by the Great Saint.
“Hmph. A bunch of fools. Do they really think I haven’t made any preparations?”
On the other side, the Black Demon Elder sneered inwardly. Did these idiots think he would be their cannon fodder?
Did they really believe he was that foolish?
He had certainly made his own preparations.
A few years ago, he had unexpectedly obtained a treasure that could detect the hidden aura of supreme beings.
If any supreme beings were nearby, they would be detected by this treasure, leaving them nowhere to hide.
However, according to his treasure’s detection, there were no supreme beings present.
Clearly, it was not a supreme being breaking through to the Great Saint realm.
It was very likely that a supreme treasure had appeared.
“My lifespan is running out. I must seize the supreme treasure. Whoever dares to fight me for it, I’ll kill them!”
The Black Demon Elder’s face twisted with ferocity, filled with murderous intent.
As long as he seized the treasure and used his secret technique to escape, the other powerful beings wouldn’t be able to do anything to him, even if they reacted.
“I’m here!”
Soon, the Black Demon Elder descended upon Wanxiang City, unleashing an aura that was nearly at the level of a Saint King. He then stomped on the city’s grand array.
Boom!
An unimaginable force struck down, causing the grand array of Wanxiang City to shake violently. It was pierced through layer after layer, almost being completely breached.
“Hmm… a mere saint array actually withstood my strike?” Seeing that the array hadn’t been completely shattered by his stomp, the Black Demon Elder was somewhat surprised.
He was a half-step Saint King, and if he used his trump cards, he could even rival a Saint King for a short time.
The power of his stomp could injure an ordinary Saint at the Ninth Heaven, yet it was blocked by the saint array?
“Who is that person? He almost breached the saint array of Wanxiang City with just one stomp!”
“Hiss, that must be a terrifying Saint. Wanxiang City has a nine-layer saint array, and it almost couldn’t withstand it!”
“This Saint comes with such ferocity. Could he be planning to destroy Wanxiang City?”
Within Wanxiang City, countless cultivators’ faces changed, their eyes revealing shock and fear.
Recently, in the True Saint Continent, there had been frequent annihilations of factions.
Often, the beings across tens of thousands of miles of land were devoured or slaughtered, sacrificed to refine treasures and the like.
These tragedies were all caused by powerful Saints from other lands. Some supreme demonic cultivators acted with utter disregard, often slaughtering billions of beings.
One of the most terrifying incidents involved the complete annihilation of a dynasty, where all its beings were sacrificed to refine a treasure, shaking the entire True Saint Continent.
This enraged many Saint ancestors, but no one dared to seek revenge.
Because that was an extremely powerful Saint King.
“The master of this city, come out and face me!” In the sky, the Black Demon Elder’s gaze was cold as he shouted, shaking the heavens and earth.
He acted with utter disregard.
Using that treasure, he had not detected the aura of any supreme beings in this area.
The two strongest individuals were at the Ninth Heaven and Fifth Heaven of the Saint realm, respectively.
Although formidable, he did not consider them a threat.
He was a half-step Saint King.
Even without using his trump cards to unleash the power of a Saint King, he could easily contend with and even suppress the combined efforts of five Saints at the Ninth Heaven.
“This is bad!”
Within Wanxiang City, the ancient Saint of Wanxiang felt a pang of dread. He recognized the identity of this black-robed Saint, and his heart sank.
The opponent had a terrifying record of killing Saints at the Ninth Heaven.
Could their master be a match for him?
“Boom!”
Soon, two figures emerged from within Wanxiang City, exuding terrifying saintly might.
Su Jie and the ancient Saint of Wanxiang appeared.
This time, however, Su Jie did not conceal his face but revealed it, appearing as an ordinary middle-aged man.
“Hmm? Who is that person? Such a powerful aura, at least a top-tier Saint, but I’ve never seen him before!”
“When did Wanxiang City have such a formidable expert?”
“Could it be someone Su Changsheng has been hiding?”
The powerful figures and spies from various factions within Wanxiang City were all taken aback upon seeing Su Jie’s appearance.
