Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

The death of the Fallen Immortal King released a vast amount of special Origin Qi, which surged like a torrent of rivers, continuously pouring into Jun Wu Xie's body and flowing towards Mu Lian Yue in the distance.

Jun Wu Xie glanced at the various divine artifacts, materials, and resources that had exploded onto the ground.

He temporarily suppressed the curiosity in his heart and didn't look at them. Instead, he absorbed the special Origin Qi while heading towards Mu Lian Yue.

Mu Lian Yue snapped out of her indescribable shock.

Seeing him walking towards her and remembering his earlier words about dealing with her after killing the Fallen Immortal King, she couldn't help but panic. For a moment, she didn't know how to face this domineering and powerful man.

"Cough! Cough cough!"

Jun Wu Xie, who was walking towards Mu Lian Yue, suddenly turned his back and covered his mouth, coughing a few times.

Opening his palm, his hand was filled with Primordial Golden blood.

He checked his body and found that the cracks in the Wheel of Life had indeed deepened and spread.

This was the reason why he hadn't used the Three Thousand疊 Killing Technique in recent days.

Since arriving in the Ancient God Realm, he had only used the Three Thousand疊 Killing Technique a few times at the beginning.

It had already caused the cracks in the Wheel of Life to show signs of deepening and spreading.

This time, he couldn't withstand the violent blood energy when the Three Thousand疊 Killing Technique was activated and suffered a backlash.

"Lord Divine, what's wrong with you?"

The panicked Mu Lian Yue suddenly saw him turn his back to her and heard him coughing while trying to suppress it, and her heart sank.

She suddenly realized that he had suffered a severe backlash.

Otherwise, he would have displayed such heaven-defying strength from the beginning. Why would he have waited until fighting to this point to use it?

This was enough to show that his strong state just now required an extremely huge price!

Jun Wu Xie wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, wiped the bloodstains from his palm, turned around, and looked at her expressionlessly.

"I..."

Mu Lian Yue met his gaze, and her heart was inexplicably flustered, even feeling a little scared.

She didn't know why she had such a feeling.

It was the first time in her life that she felt so flustered and uneasy when facing someone, as if she had done something terribly wrong.

"Congratulations to Shi and Princess Duskmoon for killing the quasi-fifth-order Immortal-level creature, the Fallen Immortal King, and each obtaining 800 honor points!"

"Congratulations to Shi, your team has completed the first kill of a quasi-fifth-order Immortal-level Fallen Immortal King in the entire region, and each member is rewarded with 1,500 honor points and a Rank 3 Eternal Spring Divine Restriction Pill!"

"Congratulations to Shi for the first cross-realm kill of a quasi-fifth-order Immortal-level Fallen Immortal King, obtaining the honor title of 'Defeating Immortals with Weakness', rewarded with 2,000 honor points, a Rank 3 Eternal Spring Divine Restriction Pill, and a Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill!"

"Congratulations to Princess Duskmoon for assisting in the first cross-realm kill of a quasi-fifth-order Immortal-level Fallen Immortal King, obtaining the honor title of 'Immortal Slayer', rewarded with 1,500 honor points, and a Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill!"

"Shi, Princess Duskmoon, you have obtained the hidden privileges of each list of divine artifacts, names, and honor points on the Monument of Glory for killing Immortal-level creatures for the first time.

A region-wide announcement is about to be made. Shi and Princess Duskmoon, would you like to hide your names and honor points?"

"Hide."

Snapping out of their thoughts from the voice of Order, they almost said the same thing in unison, making the same choice.

Jun Wu Xie wasn't afraid of attracting too much attention, but he was worried that those who wanted to deal with him would become afraid to act because of it.

As for Mu Lian Yue, her considerations were different from Jun Wu Xie's.

She just didn't want to continue provoking her Crown Prince brother and third brother, and didn't want to spread the matter to the ears of other royal family members.

"Region-wide announcement, all trainees, please note that trainee XX's team has achieved the first cross-realm kill of a quasi-fifth-order Immortal-level creature, and has respectively won the honor titles of 'Defeating Immortals with Weakness' and 'Immortal Slayer', as well as various special secret realm resource rewards.

The Secret Realm opens a major event, and the lists of the Monument of Glory open the function of hiding or adding hidden lists."

Inside the Secret Realm, countless people looked at the Monument of Glory in the sky in shock, hardly believing their ears.

Someone actually joined forces to kill a quasi-fifth-order Immortal-level creature?

What kind of concept was that?

People's minds were racing, and their eyeballs were about to fall to the ground.

How could anyone do such a thing?

The Order's announcement didn't even say the names, only saying so-and-so.

Who exactly was the team of powerful people who killed the Immortal-level creature?

Were they people from the Great World of Interspace, or people from the Ancient God World?

People's moods were different, some were amazed, some were envious, some were jealous, and some were full of hatred.

Looking at the lists on the Monument of Glory, a hidden list was added next to the Honor Title List.

On the Honor List, some honor points were currently in a hidden state, and only the ranking could be seen, but not the specific value.

For example, Shi at the top of the list and Princess Duskmoon at the second, as well as the few behind them, had now hidden their honor points.

On the additional list of the Honor Title List, there were only two titles. The one at the front was 'Defeating Immortals with Weakness', and the second was 'Immortal Slayer'. The holders of the titles were all question marks.

The Exclusive Divine Artifact Ranking List didn't add a hidden list. When a divine artifact was listed, you could choose to make the owner's name public or hidden.

...

"Who is it! Who exactly is it?!"

The Emperor and the Son of Destiny both jumped up and down in rage, really unable to remain calm.

How could this be?

The two of them had already started teaming up now. Could it be that the sum of their luck was still not as good as others?

Shi and Princess Duskmoon had only recently obtained honor titles, killing many fourth-order Transcendent God creatures.

They were already very depressed.

How long had it been? There was actually another team that killed a quasi-fifth-order Immortal-level creature!

At this moment, they wanted to curse their mothers!

"Young Master, Son of Destiny, please be patient.

Opportunities like this come in turn.

No one can guarantee that their luck will always be so good.

The great opportunities for the Young Master and the Son of Destiny are bound to be in the future, but they have not yet arrived.

Besides, the team that killed the Immortal-level creature chose to hide their names. In this way, it seems that they don't want to be in the limelight and are afraid of attracting attention and causing trouble for themselves.

Therefore, they must not be from a large force."

Hearing the analysis of the strong man beside him, the Emperor and the Son of Destiny narrowed their eyes slightly, and then nodded in agreement.

"Everyone in the Secret Realm knows that Order allows us to create forces.

In the future, we will definitely be able to take land near the city and build our own city.

Therefore, anyone from a large force, with this honor, can't wait to let the whole world know. The higher the reputation, the more talented people the force will be able to attract in the future.

And people from small forces, with insufficient background, don't have much desire for building their own city, and their intention is not strong, so they will choose to hide their own glory, worrying about being targeted.

In this way, isn't it giving us a chance?

Our two major forces want to create huge forces in the Secret Realm, and we need the reputation of the Young Master and the Son of Destiny to support it.

Now, the team that killed the Immortal-level creature is incognito, which is exactly what we want.

At that time, we can reveal to the outside world that the heaven-defying team that killed the quasi-fifth-order Immortal-level creature is actually the team of the Young Master and the Son of Destiny.

And the real killers are afraid of exposing themselves and dare not come out to expose us, so we will take this reputation for ourselves.

Just right, the evil demon siege is getting closer and closer, and the time to create a force is also getting closer and closer.

We now urgently need a reputation to attract small and medium-sized forces and some powerful rogue cultivators to join us!"

The muscles on the faces of the Emperor and the Son of Destiny twitched fiercely when they heard this.

Stealing other people's honor and reputation for themselves is a very shameful thing.

However, they were somewhat tempted and their hearts were very contradictory.

At the beginning, when they came to the Secret Realm, what kind of glory and honor did they enjoy?

Since the fusion of the two worlds, they have been met with various blows.

Until now, they felt that if they couldn't show their brilliance again, the world might soon forget them. All the attention was on Shi and Princess Duskmoon, and that Mu and Linglong, and even a person called Lian Yue Qingxian who suddenly emerged recently!

They had been silent for too long, and they urgently needed a brilliant glory. In addition, the time to establish a force was approaching, and they really needed to create momentum.

Just as their strong man said, the people who really killed the Immortal-level creature hid their identities, presumably because they were afraid of being exposed, so it was impossible to come out and expose them, so there was no need to worry about anything.

"Okay, let's do it!"

After making the decision, the Emperor and the Son of Destiny suddenly felt a lot easier in their hearts, and even had an unbearable excitement and expectation.

They really wanted to know what the world's reaction would be after hearing that they had killed the Immortal-level creature?

At that time, wouldn't all eyes be focused on them, and Shi and Princess Duskmoon and others would be dimmed and fade out of people's sight?

...

Qingfeng Ancient Town, City Lord's Mansion.

The City Lord looked at the Monument of Glory in the sky, his expression both shocked and excited.

His heart, which had been hanging for many days, finally relaxed at this moment.

"Although it didn't say who it was, it must be him!

I received a hint from the Heavenly Dao a few days ago, saying that Shi and Princess Duskmoon shared this task.

Today, the Immortal-level creature died, and it must have been them who killed the Fallen Immortal King.

I didn't expect that the Fallen Immortal King had actually recovered to the quasi-fifth order!

My information was inaccurate, and I almost harmed Shi.

Fortunately, he is naturally divine and martial, and even if he is quasi-fifth order, he was also beheaded by his sword!

It is really the blessing of my Qingfeng Ancient Town, and the blessing of all living beings!

Come, come quickly!"

"City Lord, what are your orders?"

Several people came in a hurry and said respectfully.

"Quickly prepare various high-quality building materials, the best materials from our Qingfeng Ancient Town, and prepare a million craftsmen to wait for orders at any time!"

"City Lord, are you going to build on a large scale?"

"Is this something you should ask? Go quickly!"

The Qingfeng City Lord glared at those few people.

"Yes, I will do it immediately!"

Those few people left in a hurry.

The Qingfeng City Lord paced back and forth, his face filled with excitement, muttering to himself, "I must give him the best treatment and privileges.

His potential is limitless, and his background is extraordinary; even the Heavenly Dao will heed his advice.

As long as I perform well in front of him and leave a good impression, no matter how turbulent things become in this secret realm, our Qingfeng Ancient Town will stand firm and enjoy a prosperous age!"

… …

Looking at Fallen Immortal Cliff, the core area.

Jun Wuxie put away the elixirs rewarded by Order.

Mu Lian Yue, however, carefully examined the Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill, a divine pill flowing with golden light, its surface covered with patterns, exuding a special essence.

So, this is the Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill; this is what it looks like.

It was her first time receiving this pill, and she couldn't help but feel excited and curious.

"Put it away and sit down."

Jun Wuxie's voice interrupted her thoughts, pulling her mind back from the Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill.

"Lord Jun, I…"

Mu Lian Yue looked into his deep eyes, and involuntarily lost all confidence, feeling quite uneasy.

"I told you to sit down!"

Jun Wuxie reached out and placed his hand on her shoulder, forcibly pressing her down to sit.

Then, he clasped her radiant jade-like wrist, and his divine sense and blood energy entered her body, carefully examining her physical condition.

Throughout the entire process, he remained expressionless.

In the end, Mu Lian Yue saw his face growing darker and darker, and her heart followed suit, becoming more and more uneasy.

"Do you know what you did wrong?"

Jun Wuxie did not release her wrist, his voice slightly cold.

"I…"

Mu Lian Yue originally wanted to admit her mistake; his aura was simply too powerful.

But for some reason, a feeling of grievance suddenly surged in her heart, igniting the stubbornness in her bones, and she bravely met his gaze, saying, "I did nothing wrong!

We took on this task together, and we joined hands to kill the Fallen Immortal King; I did my best to suppress the Fallen Immortal King's reaction speed, all because I was afraid you would be under too much pressure. How could I be wrong?"

"Still being stubborn? You insist on arguing, don't you?"

Jun Wuxie looked at her coldly and said, "Do you know that your origin has already begun to show signs of damage, and you almost gave yourself an origin wound! Your wheel of life almost cracked!

You should understand how difficult it is to repair an origin wound!"

Upon hearing this, a layer of mist uncontrollably gathered in Mu Lian Yue's beautiful eyes, which reflected the evening sunset.

"Didn't you also suffer injuries from the backlash?

Are you only allowed to protect me, and am I not allowed to return kindness with kindness?

I, Mu Lian Yue, am not such a selfish person!

Do you know that it makes me feel very uneasy, and I feel very sad!"

After speaking, she suddenly shook off his hand, turned her body away, and refused to look at him.

She didn't know how important that old friend was to him, so much so that, despite their brief encounter, just because she resembled his old friend somewhat, he treated her so well.

But everyone's heart is made of flesh, and the relationship between people should be mutual.

To receive someone's kindness and always think about reaping the benefits without giving anything in return, such selfish behavior is not her code of conduct, and she always feels very uncomfortable and indebted.

Jun Wuxie fell silent.

After a moment, he walked around to face her, leaned closer to look at her face, her eyes were wet, and she looked aggrieved.

His heart softened, and he said softly, "Alright, don't feel wronged.

I just didn't want you to suffer such a serious injury.

At the same time, I should have told you earlier that since I dared to enter Fallen Immortal Cliff, I must have a way to kill the Fallen Immortal King. There was no need for you to pay such a high price."

"Then what about you? Didn't you also pay a huge price?" Mu Lian Yue stared into his eyes and said, "You are a body cultivator, your physical body is so strong, and your lifeblood is so vigorous, yet you suffered a backlash and coughed up blood!

Don't think that just because I turned my back to you, I wouldn't know that you coughed up blood. I smelled your bloody scent at the time!

Tell me the truth, have you already injured your origin?"

Her eyes were stubborn, with an expression that said, 'If you don't tell me the truth, I won't give up.'

Jun Wuxie was stunned, and after a moment of silence, he let out a sigh.

"I already had an origin wound, with cracks on my wheel of life, so I wouldn't easily use that secret technique, the divine power that can greatly increase my attack power when killing the Fallen Immortal King…"

"Was it left behind during the apocalyptic torrent in the Upper Realm?"

As clever as Mu Lian Yue was, she understood instantly.

Lord Jun had just returned to the Divine Ancient, it was impossible for him to have left it behind in the Divine Ancient.

No one he encountered had the ability to injure his origin.

"Yes."

Jun Wuxie nodded, "The apocalyptic torrent, the darkness completely invaded, the number of strong people was despairing. Being able to survive after sweeping away the darkness was already good enough; what does a slight origin wound matter?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Lian Yue suddenly felt a soreness in her nose.

This man in front of her, in the Lower Realm and the Upper Realm, protected all living beings. When he arrived in the Divine Ancient, he protected Barre and protected herself. His whole life was spent fighting, his whole life was spent protecting others.

His life was too tiring.

But it was because of such a great person that this apocalypse had hope, and the living beings of the Lower Realm and the Upper Realm could usher in a prosperous age…

"What's wrong with you?"

Jun Wuxie saw her staring at him, the mist in her eyes growing thicker and thicker.

"I just feel that it's too hard for you, too difficult."

She sighed and said quietly.

"This path is destined to be full of hardships and thorns, but I am not alone. There are still many people accompanying me on this path, cutting through thorns and brambles together.

Born in a great era, we always have to face it. There is no escape. Only by fighting can we see true hope."

"But what about your origin wound? After this battle, I'm afraid it has become more serious, right? Is there anything I can do to help you?"

"It's just an origin wound; you don't have to worry.

It might be difficult for others, but it's not as serious as you think for me.

Therefore, I don't allow your origin to be damaged, and I have my own methods to repair my origin wound.

Don't do this again in the future. Once your origin is damaged, with your physical strength, your strength will drop drastically, and even breaking through realms will become a problem. Your cultivation will stagnate for a long time, and you will be left behind by your peers!"

"You only think about me, not at all about yourself…"

Mu Lian Yue sighed and said.

Jun Wuxie did not respond to this sentence.

But he couldn't help but think in his heart, how could I not think about you, I finally found you.

Although it was only our first meeting back then, we immediately hit it off, and you still have my blood in your body.

He cherished the friendship between old friends in the chaotic space-time, and he also felt sorry for her experiences.

"Don't overthink it. I have my own sense of proportion when I do things. At any time, you must believe that the things I do are all within my control.

If I can't even do this, how could I have calmed the apocalyptic torrent in both realms and returned alive to the Divine Ancient?"

"I know, Lord Jun, you are amazing, alright?"

Mu Lian Yue suddenly smiled, her eyes blooming with the light of dusk, like a beautiful sunset scene unfolding before her eyes, so beautiful that it felt unreal.

Her sudden smile caused Jun Wuxie's mind to be in a trance for a moment.

"Let's go, let's go see what good things the Fallen Immortal King dropped."

Mu Lian Yue no longer dwelled on other things.

Although she was still a little worried about his origin wound, what he said also made sense.

A person who can lead both realms to calm the apocalyptic torrent must have many methods that she doesn't know.

Perhaps, he really has a way to solve this origin wound?

"There must be a lot of good things, but a large area exploded out, there are more than a dozen exclusive divine artifacts, and many rare materials, elixirs, and so on.

We have a great harvest this time.

When we return to the city, we can also receive generous rewards from the City Lord."

After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he pulled her towards the place where the Fallen Immortal King's dropped items were located.

At the same time, he injected a vast amount of life essence into her body to help her recover faster.
