Soul-Devouring Bead!
It is a magical artifact that can continuously grow.
The first Soul-Devouring Bead that Lu Tao refined had Shan Yu as its main soul, and it was used from the Qianyu Continent all the way to the God Realm.
Although the Soul-Devouring Pearl had devoured countless divine souls and was already incredibly powerful, even ordinary God-Emperor level experts would find it difficult to withstand its attacks.
However, the materials used to refine that Soul-Devouring Pearl were of low quality.
Therefore, its power is relatively limited.
In view of this!
To make hunting down the God Emperor faster and more convenient, Lu Tao used high-grade materials obtained from other demon god kings in Yulongtian to specially refine several Soul-Devouring Beads.
After devouring the souls of one god-king after another, these six Soul-Devouring Pearls have greatly increased in both power and grade, and their power is now even more terrifying than the original Dan Yu.
As for Shan Yu now...
After Lu Tao refined it again, placed Shan Yu into a new Soul Devouring Pearl, and upgraded it, Shan Yu was now incredibly terrifying, many times stronger than before.
The other Soul-Devouring Pearls were enough for Luo Xian and the other six to use.
At this moment, Luo Xian, with the help of the Soul Devouring Pearl, devoured the Celestial Phenomenon Divine Soul, and even indirectly prevented it from self-destructing its physical body and world.
"A physical body and soul sea at the mid-stage of the God Emperor realm!"
Luo Xian put away the Soul-Devouring Pearl, and then sealed and put away Tianxiang's physical body.
As for the shattered world of the celestial phenomena, Luo Xian ignored it and left it where it was, but she collected all the resources and items within it.
call out!
After dealing with everything, Luo Xian did not remove the formation, but left directly for the next location.
Continue to ambush and hunt.
——
"Roar! You bastards, do you humans really want to start a war with my demon race?"
On the other side.
Within the same large formation, a unicorn with its body shimmering with iridescent light roared fiercely.
The unicorn was in a very pitiful state at this time.
Its body was covered in blood and riddled with wounds. Its single horn had been broken in two, and there was even a huge bloody hole on its head, almost piercing through its skull.
It was listless.
"Start a war? You overestimate yourself. It's nothing more than hunting demons!"
Mu Xuan sneered.
As his words fell, countless rudimentary sword forms swept towards the unicorn, covering the sky and the earth.
"roar!"
The unicorn roared, but its eyes were filled with fear.
Buzz!
A brownish-yellow tortoise shell appeared before the unicorn, transforming into a canopy that enveloped the nascent swordsmanship.
Puff puff puff!
However, the tortoise shell, under the rudimentary form of swordsmanship, was as fragile as paper and was pierced in an instant.
call out--
The rudimentary form of swordsmanship, which pierced the tortoise shell into dust, rained down on the unicorn.
"roar!"
The unicorn let out a defiant roar and, feeling utterly frustrated, retreated into its own world to hide.
But what made it despair was that even though it was as powerful as it was, already at the mid-stage of the God Emperor realm, and its world had undergone a transformation, its world could not stop this person from unleashing the rudimentary form of swordsmanship.
Click!
As the sound of the world shattering rang out, a huge chasm burst open at the top of the massive world, as if the sky had been pierced, and a rain of swords fell upon the world.
Click click click—
In the unicorn's world, holes appeared one after another, and countless rudimentary sword forms rushed towards the unicorn with unstoppable force.
"Damn it! How could this happen?"
The unicorn was enraged.
It couldn't understand why this person wanted to hunt it down.
What made it even stranger was that this person's cultivation had reached the peak of the God Emperor realm, yet the world had only undergone one transformation.
Since one is already a God Emperor with unlimited lifespan, if one wants to prioritize improving strength at this level, one should first focus on cultivating the world.
Let the world undergo its transformation first.
Of course, under normal circumstances, the inner essence, the divine essence, and the world progress together.
Those who favor one particular path and cultivate it first are generally rare.
after all.
Whether it's cultivating one's essence, energy, and spirit, or cultivating the world, the earlier the stage, the easier the cultivation.
It had seen those whose cultivation level was still in the early stage of God Emperor, but whose world was at its peak.
But I have never seen anyone like this person who first cultivates inner energy and then cultivates the world.
Reaching the pinnacle of inner energy cultivation doesn't actually significantly boost combat power.
Even if one achieves perfect inner essence, without a complete transformation of the world, one cannot advance to the God Emperor level. Such a choice is clearly unreasonable.
It couldn't quite understand it.
What it couldn't understand even more was that this person would ambush it in the secret realm.
As far as it knew, there seemed to be very few human god-emperors who entered the Imperial Universe this time, and none of them had reached the peak of god-emperor cultivation.
puff!
As the world continues to be shattered, the unicorn can't help but cough up blood.
At this moment, its soul seemed to be pierced by countless longswords, almost shattering.
"Even if I die, I will..."
A fierce look flashed across the unicorn's face. Seeing that there was no way out, it was about to drag Mu Xuan down with it.
Buzz!
But at that moment, a sudden fluctuation came from one side of it.
A sinister and terrifying spiritual power appeared very subtly and landed on it. Instantly, the unicorn felt that its spiritual power was somewhat out of its control.
It instinctively stopped all other movements and did its best to resist the pulling force.
But with a 'whoosh' sound.
Its already injured soul was pulled straight out of the sea of souls by that enormous pulling force, and before it could make any other move, it was devoured by the Soul Devouring Pearl.
"No……"
The unicorn let out a defiant roar, but its voice fell silent in just half a breath.
And its broken world, along with the disappearance of its soul, slowly disintegrated.
No!
To be precise, the world of unicorns did not collapse, but rather merged into the secret realm, becoming a part of it and making the secret realm even larger.
During this time, Mu Xuan also collected the unicorn's corpse and other resources in the world.
After finishing all this, Mu Xuan quickly cleaned up the battlefield, but did not remove the formation. He then left the area and headed to the next location.
——
"Ah...who are you? I am also a human, how dare you kill me?"
On the other side.
In a broken world, a young man stared at Nie Ting with a face full of resentment, and deep in his eyes was disbelief.
As a disciple of the Tianyu Sect, he had naturally heard the recent rumors about Yulongtian.
But he is a member of the Celestial Race. Even if the human race has some secret plans, they are only aimed at the demon and monster races. Since he is a member of the Celestial Race, he will not be targeted.
therefore.
Even though he was only at the early stage of the God Emperor realm, he didn't think anything unexpected would happen to him when he entered the secret realm.
But to their surprise, they crashed into a formation as soon as they entered the secret realm.
At first, he tried to appeal to emotions, saying that he was a member of the Celestial Race and also supported the human race's plan to exterminate the demon race, hoping to escape with his life.
To his despair, Nie Ting's determination to kill him remained unwavering.
actually--
Given Nie Ting and his companions' human identity, if they were unaware of the actions of the Divine Dynasty, Yulongtian, Tianyu Sect, etc., they would naturally not attack the Human God Emperor without any reason.
Let alone killing him!
After all, it is extremely difficult for a single God-Emperor to emerge in the desolate region for countless years.
However, after learning about the actions of these powerful figures from the Divine Dynasty, Nie Ting and his group naturally could not regard them as their own.
Let alone mere attempts to sow discord between the human and demon races.
Even when killing these humans and celestials, they show no mercy.
That's exactly how it is now!
"snort!"
Nie Ting snorted coldly, too lazy to say anything, and took out the Soul-Devouring Pearl directly.
Buzz!
The moment the Soul-Devouring Pearl was taken out, a sinister and terrifying aura filled the air, causing the young man to look horrified. He was about to make a move, but unfortunately, he was too injured to resist.
With a whoosh!
Under the suction force of the Soul-Devouring Pearl, the youth's soul only lasted for half a breath before it was forcibly pulled out of his soul sea by the Soul-Devouring Pearl, which even tore a large hole in his soul sea.
*Crack!*
The Soul-Devouring Bead devoured the youth's soul and began to chew it with smacking sounds.
"With the Soul-Devouring Pearl, hunting demons is so easy!"
Nie Ting sighed.
Although the young man in front of him was only at the early stage of God Emperor, the fact that he could kill a God Emperor so easily in less than ten breaths still felt somewhat unreal to him.
"Next!"
Nie Ting didn't linger. After tidying everything up, he flew out of the formation and, under Lu Tao's instructions, headed to the next location.
at the same time.
The other three Divine Emperor Elders of the Immortal Sect were also frantically hunting demons and monsters, even killing powerful members of the Celestial Race and the Human Race.
——
That's how it is.
The six Divine Emperor Elders of the Immortal Sect concealed their auras, each carrying a Soul-Devouring Pearl and a Rule Artifact, and went to one location after another, dropping off array plates and waiting for their prey to come to them.
They carried numerous array plates, which, once set up, did not need to be retrieved. They waited for the God Emperors to step into them, at least to trap these God Emperors first, and then deal with them one by one.
"Who is it? Show yourself!"
"You human insectoid, how dare you plot against me! You're courting death!"
"You think you can trap me with a mere formation? Break it!"
...
At this very moment, in many places in the Imperial Realm, numerous powerful Divine Emperors stepped into the formations without any precautions.
They all thought of the rumors circulating in Yulongtian recently, and wanted to break the formation, find the hidden human, and kill him.
However--
What terrified and enraged them was that this formation was simply too powerful; even a mid-stage Divine Emperor could not break it and had no way to escape.
They tried everything, but they couldn't break the great formation.
This plunged them into despair.
At this moment, they felt like caged beasts, utterly powerless.
Even though they were all powerful God-Emperors with endless lifespans, they couldn't help but feel a sense of fear when faced with the threat of death.
This kind of emotion hasn't appeared in them for many years.
puff!
laugh!
*Crack!*
Within the unknown grand formation, whenever Luo Xian, Mu Xuan, Nie Ting, and others passed by, they would each take a life.
This applies to demons, monsters, and humans alike.
There are almost no exceptions.
They died silently, without attracting the attention of any other living beings.
They all perished silently within the great formation, and everything they possessed was taken away by Luo Xian and the other six.
Ten digits, fifty digits, one hundred digits...
As time went by, the number of fallen Divine Emperor-level powerhouses continued to increase.
In just three hours, the number of fallen god-emperors reached 170.
Boom!
At this moment, a huge explosion suddenly rang out in a remote part of the secret realm, and a set of formations exploded, along with the formation plate.
With a whoosh.
A powerful figure appeared in mid-air, his face extremely grim. His immense divine soul power scanned the surroundings, as if searching for something.
But nothing was found.
He shouted, "Who dares to cause trouble in this secret realm?"
His voice carried far and wide, echoing throughout the secret realm.
However, to his dismay, his voice not only failed to elicit a response from the creatures in the shadows, but also failed to elicit any movement from the other creatures that had entered the secret realm.
You need to know.
Although the Imperial Realm is vast, with his late-stage Divine Emperor strength, his divine soul is incredibly terrifying. While his voice may not resound throughout the entire secret realm, it can still be heard by beings within half of the area.
But now, all the other creatures that had entered the secret realm seemed to have vanished, showing no response to his voice.
This is highly unusual.
"It seems that similar formations exist in other places as well!"
The man's face was extremely gloomy. He stopped flying around recklessly and instead carefully scanned his surroundings with his divine sense to avoid accidentally entering another formation.
Buzz!
Suddenly, after he had only explored a distance of ten thousand miles, he plunged into another formation.
This made him pause in surprise.
"You bastard!"
He was furious; the hidden formation was simply impossible to defend against.
Sizzle!
Suddenly, a spatial fluctuation came from behind him, which he caught.
The man's expression suddenly changed drastically. Without thinking, he released the world and prepared to enter it, intending to use his divine soul power to observe the approaching enemy.
But suddenly...
Just then, he suddenly sensed a sinister and terrifying aura emerging in his soul sea.
"The power of a curse!"
Sensing the power of the curse within, the man was terrified. He immediately channeled the power of the world into the Wood Rule, filling his soul sea with it, in preparation to resist this curse power.
Sizzle!
However, despite his quick movements, he was still a step too late.
Under the onslaught of the curse's power, his soul sea shattered continuously, and almost instantly, countless holes appeared.
"puff!"
His soul sea was severely damaged, and he couldn't help but vomit a mouthful of blood essence.
Buzz~~~
Immediately afterwards, the power of the curse surged wildly towards his altar and soul.
With a loud bang.
The power of the curse struck the nascent wood form, instantly unleashing a massive explosion that nearly shattered the man's entire soul sea, even causing a crack over ten feet wide to appear on his divine platform.
His soul was even more unstable, showing a tendency to jump off the altar.
"Damn it, who is it?"
The man was somewhat panicked. The power of the curse was too strong; even with his late-stage Divine Emperor strength, he was unable to withstand it.
Click!
Suddenly, another crisp sound reached his ears.
He suppressed the discomfort in his soul and looked up at the sky in shock, only to see that his world had been shattered by the enemy at this moment.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The rudiments of swordsmanship, knife-wielding, and spear-wielding techniques engulfed his world and surged towards his physical body.
"It's over!"
The man muttered to himself, his expression somewhat blank, almost losing his will to survive. Even the nascent wood form in his soul sea, which was resisting the power of the curse, was momentarily stunned.
But in the next instant, he was overcome by a powerful will to survive.
He did his best to resist the curse, unleashing the nascent Wood Way, which surged toward the nascent forms of Sword Way, Knife Way, and so on.
He then used teleportation to escape.
Pfft!
Unfortunately, how could the nascent wood way possibly withstand the nascent sword way and spear way?
Almost instantly, his Wood Path was shattered, and then numerous attacks shot out towards his entire world.
Pfft!
At that moment, this person's world shattered.
"puff!"
The world shattered, and this person was also affected, his soul was shaken, and his divine platform broke.
Buzz!
Before he could come up with any other solution, three enormous suction forces appeared around his soul.
With a hissing sound.
The severely injured soul was forcibly pulled out of the sea of souls by these three forces, and then, amidst its despair, it was swallowed up by one of the forces.
"Even a late-stage Divine Empress is powerful!"
Only then did Luo Xian, Mu Xuan, and Nie Ting appear.
Facing a late-stage Divine Emperor, they dared not be careless; it took the combined efforts of the three of them to kill him.
but.
With the help of the cursed power, killing this late-stage god was much easier than dealing with Miao Yi back then.
"Retract the formation and prepare to retreat!"
At this moment, they received instructions from Lu Tao.
The three immediately took action, dispelling the formation and returning to the Great Thousand World.
at the same time.
The other three also successfully killed a late-stage Divine Emperor demon, put away the other array plates, and rushed back to the Great Thousand World.
In a short period of time, the six of them slaughtered almost all the God Emperors in the Imperial Realm.
Only a portion of the human race remained alive, along with three or five demons.
Buzz!
With the opening of the two realms, Lu Tao and the Immortal Sect disappeared from the Imperial Realm.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared in another secret realm.
"Shuang'er, wait for me here, I'll be back soon."
As usual, Lu Tao left He Yuanshuang behind, gave her some instructions, and then used the power of the golden statue to return to the lower realm to deal with the second batch of people from the Tianyu Sect who had descended to the lower realm...
