Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Before long, Jun Wuxie entered the second tomb chamber, where he saw the same magic formation.

This place was the same as the previous tomb chamber; before entering, he could hear strange sounds, but after entering, the sounds disappeared.

There were no soul fluctuations within the blue stone coffin, indicating that it wasn't the residual soul of a deceased Semi-Saint.

"It's these magic formations, the sounds simulated by the formations, stimulating people's curiosity and luring them inside..."

Jun Wuxie still couldn't completely understand these magic formations, but he could roughly see the problem.

He didn't take the Dao fruit here, but he left a message at the entrance, hoping that others would see it when they came here.

Next, he continuously entered and exited the major tomb chambers, seeing the exact same scene, and after coming out, he left words of warning on the mountain rocks at the entrance.

He didn't know if doing this would be useful, because if one didn't get close to the blue stone coffin and activate the magic formation, the coffin wouldn't open automatically.

Trying to forcibly open the coffin from outside the formation was impossible, even he would find it difficult, let alone others.

And how attractive would the Heavenly Rank Dao fruit be to the young Supreme beings?

Would they really give up because of his warning?

"All I can do for now is this. Over the long years, the formations here have collected too much bloodline information from ancient bloodline possessors. It seems like stopping it now won't have much effect..."

Jun Wuxie stood on the peak of a mountain, looking out at the mountains here, frowning as he pondered.

What exactly did the person who evolved this Heavenly Rank Secret Earth want to do?

Collecting the bloodline information of ancient bloodline possessors, but not plundering their bloodline power, what's the point of doing this?

Mysterious runes appeared in his pupils, this was the pupil technique of the Primordial Rune Dao.

When this pupil technique was activated, he could see many hidden formation veins. In this world, in this vast Secret Earth, countless formation veins were closely connected, all extending towards the core area.

"This matter is no small thing. If I don't figure out the true purpose of the person who evolved the Secret Earth, I won't be able to feel at ease..."

Jun Wuxie had a faint, very bad premonition in his heart. There was probably an astonishing secret hidden inside, perhaps even a shocking conspiracy brewing.

It was now known that the Lower Realm Universe was a very special world. It was so special that even the Heavenly Emperor personally left behind order to protect it; so special that existences like Ye Qingxue and Zhuque appeared in this world; so special that Emperor-level powerhouses chose this world for reincarnation.

Now, these magic formations had been discovered. Someone had evolved the Secret Earth countless years ago, concealing it from all living beings, and unknowingly obtaining detailed bloodline information from the excellent ancient bloodline possessors of the Lower Realm Universe.

Also, so many deceased Semi-Saints, their Dao fruits no longer had any bloodline imprints. Where did their bloodline imprints go?

This was also very suspicious, a question worth pondering.

Just then, mysterious formation lights lit up on many mountain peaks.

Those lights converged towards the tomb entrances, and Jun Wuxie saw the words he had left on the stone walls of the entrances instantly erased.

This made his pupils contract slightly.

At the same time, a sense of danger surged into his heart.

On those mountain peaks, countless rune lights rapidly surged towards the same point, instantly evolving into formation diagrams.

The formation diagrams soared into the sky, blotting out the sun, interweaving into mysterious patterns, rotating in the high sky, the aura of killing sweeping across all directions.

Jun Wuxie was shocked and left without hesitation, like a stream of light.

Boom!

The moment he left that mountain peak, a huge formation diagram flew over, suppressing down from the sky, turning the mountain peak he had been on into ruins, dust soaring into the sky.

"What's going on over there?"

In an area far away from here, Ji Yinlan, Yan Qingcheng, Mu Yunxi, and Yan Ruyu saw the light of the formation diagrams soaring into the sky and heard the earth-shattering momentum.

"Should we go take a look?"

Yan Ruyu was more curious, eager to move.

"Don't run around. We just arrived here and don't understand the situation yet. Besides, he repeatedly told us, there must be a reason."

Ji Yinlan stopped Yan Ruyu's curiosity.

"Sister Yinlan is right. My husband wants to explore the core area. What we can do is to let him have no worries. We must never add trouble to him. Yan Ruyu, if you're curious, then go by yourself."

Mu Yunxi's voice was cold, and she became very impolite at the end.

"Then... I won't go..."

Yan Ruyu was immediately embarrassed. She knew that if she insisted, even her master might reject her.

......

At this time, the formation diagrams continued to move, chasing Jun Wuxie for hundreds of thousands of miles before stopping, scattering into a rain of light, disappearing into the mountains and rivers.

"It seems I was careless..."

Jun Wuxie landed on a vast plain shrouded in mist, watching the rain of light from the formation diagrams dissipate, his expression solemn.

Along the way, he had been thinking about why those magic formations would suddenly evolve into formation diagrams to attack him.

If it was just to obtain the Dao fruit, then this kind of problem shouldn't have occurred. Otherwise, most of the people who had come in to obtain the Dao fruit would have been killed in the Secret Earth.

The only explanation was that he had left words on the stone walls of those tomb entrances.

"If that's the case, then the person who arranged these things back then set certain conditions in the formations, so that the formations have special perception. The words I left just triggered the perception conditions of the formations..."

Jun Wuxie speculated that the person who set up the formations back then had set up a killing formation to prevent future generations from seeing through his purpose.

His message at the entrance caused the formations to perceive that he had seen through his purpose, so they evolved formation diagrams to kill him.

"Should I return to the starting point now, find everyone, tell them the secrets here, and stop them from obtaining the Heavenly Rank Dao fruit?"

He fell into deep thought, becoming entangled.

If he went back to find them, it might take a lot of time.

In this vast Secret Earth, the speed was only several hundred times the speed of sound, and the range of Divine Sense coverage was only a thousand miles. Finding someone wouldn't be easy.

"Yinlan has the Heavenly Emperor Dao fruit, she should be able to sense the problem with the formations. Qingcheng and Yunxi are with her, so there's no need to worry about them being obtained bloodline information. As for the others, I can't take care of them for now. I still need to hurry to the core area, and I also need to spend time breaking through my realm..."

He repeatedly thought about it and made a final decision. He would still do his own thing. There was no way to take everything into account for now. There were priorities, and he had to make trade-offs.

All the magic formations in this Secret Earth were connected to the core area. Perhaps he could uncover all the secrets when he got there.

Then, the bloodline information collected by the Secret Earth's magic formations seemed to also be gathered in that core area?

He continued to move forward, and gradually saw the end of the plain. The mist became increasingly thin, and a large river cut off the path at the end of the plain. The river was very calm, without the slightest ripple.

Just as he was only a few thousand miles away from the river at the end of the plain, the plain suddenly trembled. The green grass was like being blown by a strong wind, and then the ground shook, undulating like a huge carpet being shaken.

Cracks appeared on the plain, and formation lights lit up in those cracks.

A decaying aura permeated from the largest crack in the middle, carrying a rancid stench, stimulating people's olfactory nerves, making people want to vomit.

Jun Wuxie suddenly stopped, his eyes fixed on the largest crack in the middle of the countless cracks.

Rumble!

A ten-zhang stone coffin covered in dark red blood stood upright, slowly rising from the crack, the rancid stench becoming even more intense.

Jun Wuxie held his breath, the golden blood energy in his body surging, the Primordial Soldier Dissolution operating to the extreme, a fifteen-fold increase in overall strength, the Imperial Word Technique added to his body, and mysterious runes evolved under his feet.

Boom!

The coffin lid of the stone coffin was suddenly blown away, and a torrent of corpse gas rushed out, submerging the high sky.

Roar!

A roar came from the滔天 corpse gas, echoing in the sky above the plain, shaking the heaven and earth.

It was a decaying corpse, nearly ten zhang tall, wearing decaying armor, holding a greatsword, flowing with disgusting corpse liquid all over its body, its face festered beyond recognition, a pair of dead white eyes overflowing with thick liquid, making people feel extremely uncomfortable.

From the cracks in the earth, countless formation lights centered on the corpse, constantly pouring into its body.

The corpse opened its mouth and roared, spewing corpse gas, and rushed over with the greatsword, its footsteps shaking the ground.

"It seems I've really been targeted by the formations. Is this to stop me from going to the core area?"

Jun Wuxie narrowed his eyes, his palms spread open, and the Primordial Sword Embryo appeared in his hand.

Clang!

The corpse fiercely slashed with the greatsword in the process of rushing over.

The greatsword was covered in rust, but the moment it was slashed, it burst out with brilliant light, the sword energy stretching for hundreds of miles.

To be able to display such power in such an environment was terrifying.

"A corpse at the peak of the Extreme Heavenly Rank!"

Jun Wuxie judged the realm of the corpse before its death from the power of this sword.

He took a step forward, the River of Mortal Dust flowed, and the Primordial Sword Embryo slashed forward, meeting the sword energy of the giant sword, wrapped in the great power of time, the sword energy traversing, three thousand floating worlds, ten thousand zhang of mortal dust, the rise and fall of civilization presenting various visions.

The sword energies collided, exploding one after another.

The next moment, with a clang, the swords clashed together.

Each time the battle swords clashed, Jun Wuxie felt his arm go numb and the blood energy in his body surging.

The power of the giant sword wielded by the corpse was too strong. After taking it head-on several times, he felt a little overwhelmed. He immediately used the Word Technique to avoid a head-on collision, wielding his sword from the side, using skillful means to deflect the corpse's offensive.

"Although you were at the peak of the Extreme Heavenly Rank before your death, you now possess your former power under the formation, but you no longer have your former combat awareness. You are just a clumsy killing machine!"

After several hundred exchanges, Jun Wuxie found himself becoming increasingly relaxed in battle. Despite the churning of qi and blood within him, and the cramping in his sword-wielding arm, a sign of the bone-jarring pain of each impact, he remained remarkably calm and composed.

Throughout the fight, he continuously activated the Battle Word Secret.

Finally, after tens of thousands of attempts, it triggered.

His cultivation realm instantly soared to the Great Celestial Realm Completion!

Clang!

This strike directly sent the corroded greatsword flying from his opponent's grip.

The greatsword sliced through the air, crashing into and collapsing a small mountain.

Simultaneously, Jun Wuxie, wielding the Sword Embryo, surged forward. With a *puff* sound, his sword energy severed the head of the decaying corpse. He then reversed his grip and cleaved downwards, splitting the nearly thirty-foot-tall corpse in two, sending it crashing to the ground.

Within its shattered remains, the power of the array dissipated, disappearing into the cracks in the earth.

"Hmph, the realm of the Rune Master who evolved the Secret Earth is high, but their mastery of runes isn't particularly impressive. They're unable to fuse functional arrays with killing arrays..."

Jun Wuxie unleashed the Sun Essence Flame, incinerating the decaying corpse into ashes.

The fact that the array relied on the corpse to kill him indicated a lack of offensive power. Its only means of direct attack using the array was limited to those tomb chamber areas; it couldn't be done elsewhere. Otherwise, it wouldn't have resorted to such measures.

He continued onward, soon arriving at the river that blocked his path.

Just as he was about to cross the river, the calm surface erupted in a terrifying surge.

A wave rapidly rose, reaching hundreds of meters in height, and a figure appeared atop it.

It was a woman wearing a gray-white long dress, her head covered in white hair.

The woman's features were delicate, but her facial skin was deathly pale, and her eyeballs were pure white, lacking pupils, giving her a bizarre appearance. Moreover, her pale hands had sharp fingernails that gleamed with a dark light, each nearly half a foot long.

"Another pinnacle expert of the Highest Celestial Realm, even stronger than the previous decaying corpse!"

Jun Wuxie coldly gazed at the woman atop the towering wave. Her gray-white dress fluttered, her white hair flying backward, and her hands were extended forward in a slightly bent posture, her dark fingernails radiating a chilling light, sending shivers down one's spine.
