…

In the vast, dark void, two teams of people were engaged in a heated battle.

Both sides were cultivators at the level of a Sacred Sovereign, and their attacks were incomparably vicious. Every move and every move was directed towards death.

It was as if the other party was their own mortal enemy.

Of those two teams, some were cultivators from the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall who did not have the time to retreat, and the others were Sacred Sovereigns from the Void Alliance.

Moreover, the Void Alliance had a huge advantage at that moment.

No matter in terms of numbers or strength, they suppressed the Sacred Sovereign from the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall.

The Sacred Sovereign from the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall could only hold on in pain and resist with all his might.

“Lackeys of the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall, give up resisting. You are destined to die today. If you give up resisting honestly, we might leave you a complete corpse and let your primordial soul go, allowing you to choose to reincarnate.”

The Sacred Sovereign of the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall resisted desperately and replied with a cold smile,

“Stop joking. Do you think that we are three-year-old children? Do you think that we will really believe you just because you say a few words? Once we give up on resisting, I’m afraid that you will beat us to a pulp.

“We will devour the sacred blood and destroy our primordial souls.”

“Hmph! I originally wanted to give you a chance. Since you don’t know how to appreciate kindness, then don’t blame us for being rude.”

The chaotic battle continued, and the Void Alliance lords increased their attacks. In the blink of an eye, they completely suppressed the Sacred Sovereigns of the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall.

However, just as they were about to die, the Sacred Sovereigns of the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall suddenly laughed.

“What are you laughing at?”

A Sacred Sovereign of the Void Alliance could not help but ask.

“Hehehe… I’m laughing at you. Look behind you, you’re all finished!”

However, none of the Sacred Sovereigns from the Void Alliance turned around. They could not help but laugh at them.

“How ridiculous. It’s already at this point and you’re still not giving up. You want to deceive us to give you a chance to escape.

“Do you think we will go up?”

The Sacred Sovereigns of the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall did not continue to pay attention to them. Instead, they chose to slowly close their eyes.

The Sacred Sovereigns of the Void Alliance raised their brows. Just when they did not understand what they were trying to do? An incomparably sharp sword light instantly cut through their waists.

The speed of that sword was too fast, and the attack was too strong. They did not even have the chance to react before they were killed.

However, even if they had the chance to react, it was not enough.

They did not even feel the sword approaching them.

Although it was said that the sword was facing their back, it was already past the level of the Sacred Sovereign. He could only see with his eyes.

They were using divine sense.

Since the other party was able to perfectly avoid their divine sense, there was no need to think about it. Even if it was used in front of them, they would not have the slightest chance to dodge.

While that sword ray did not just simply get rid of them.

At the same time, it also got rid of all the people from the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall.

Moreover, right after that sword, a figure stepped out from the void.

He was none other than Ye Xiao.

Looking at those Sacred Sovereigns that he had killed, Ye Xiao’s expression did not have the slightest fluctuation.

He directly used the Void celestial art and devoured all those people.

Be it their sacred blood or their primordial souls, he did not let any of them off.

By doing so, on one hand, he could increase his cultivation, and on the other hand, he could prevent them from going out and snitching.

After doing all that, Ye Xiao took a deep breath, and a hint of excitement appeared on his face.

‘I’ve obtained quite a bit of strength again. My cultivation has increased even more now. At this rate, I reckon that it won’t be long before I can reach the level of those veteran Celestial Sovereigns.

‘At that time, with my cultivation technique and the Great Dragon! I’ll have more confidence in standing in the void.’

Those few days, Ye Xiao did not just devour that tiny bit of Sacred Sovereigns in front of him.

Due to that unprecedented decisive battle between the Void Alliance and the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall, many Sacred Sovereigns had been implicated in it.

Ye Xiao traveled across many battlefields and killed a batch of Sacred Sovereigns whenever he encountered one.

The number of dead Sacred Sovereigns who had died under his hands was probably no less than 200.

200!

How terrifying was that concept?

Even a single universe might not be able to gather so many easily.

The reason why Universe 78 had produced a large number of Sacred Sovereigns was mostly due to the heavenly bestowment brought about by the power of Ye Xiao bloodline, allowing the people of the Xuan Yuan immortal sect to advance.

Otherwise, it would be very difficult to reach this number!

However, at that moment, the Golden Book divine soul in his mind suddenly emitted a faint layer of golden light.

Ye Xiao was stunned, somewhat confused.

The Golden Book divine soul had not reacted for a long time. What was going on? Why did it suddenly start to react?

At that moment, a few terrifying auras suddenly came from afar. One of them had even reached the lesser Celestial Sovereign realm.

Although it was impossible for them to threaten Ye Xiao, Ye Xiao was currently busy investigating the Golden Book divine soul, so he could not be bothered to tangle with them.

He directly shattered the spatial barrier around him with a punch and escaped into it.

Following that, the spatial barrier was repaired, and the other party arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye.

Looking at the empty surroundings, they were somewhat confused.

“This is really strange. We clearly felt that there were some auras fighting over here just now, but why is there nothing in the blink of an eye?”

“Could it be that they are hiding? However, among the people who fought just now, there should be our people! Logically speaking, they shouldn’t be hiding.”

“Search! Perhaps our people are being held hostage. We must search them out.”

“Yes!”

The Sacred Sovereigns spread out in all directions and began a carpet-like search.

Their divine senses could even break through a layer of dimensional walls.

However, it was a pity that Ye Xiao’s current strength was too powerful. The punch that he had just thrown out was terrifyingly powerful to the extreme. It had long surpassed the level that ordinary spatial barriers could withstand.

In other words, what he had destroyed was not just one layer of spatial barriers!

Instead, it was several layers of spatial barriers.

The deeper the destruction of the spatial barriers, the harder it was for the Sacred Sovereigns’ divine senses to detect. That was because their divine senses had a certain limit.

That also had something to do with their strength. Since their strength could not reach that level, their spiritual sense was also unable to reach that level.

After Ye Xiao entered the spatial barrier, he immediately began to mobilize the Golden Book divine soul.

So, it was the Void celestial art that was about to undergo a transformation!

That made Ye Xiao unable to help but be overjoyed.

As expected, he knew that there was definitely an even more powerful cultivation method above the celestial art.

Otherwise, the Golden Book divine soul would not have been constantly absorbing other sacred arts.

He did not expect that he would finally synthesize it that day.

Perfect!

However, very quickly, Ye Xiao stopped the thought of synthesizing the Golden Book divine soul.

The Golden Book divine soul was connected to his consciousness, so he knew the information of the Golden Book divine soul.

That synthesis should be the last synthesis.

After the synthesis, the Golden Book divine soul might completely disappear.

If that were the case, he would not dare to hastily synthesize it so quickly.

The synthesis of the Void celestial art would definitely refine an even more powerful existence.

That existence should be able to match the Supreme Sovereign!

If Ye Xiao’s enemy was merely the Supreme Sovereign, then he could directly choose to synthesize it.

That was because the cultivation technique that the Golden Book divine soul synthesized was definitely a supreme art and extremely superior cultivation technique.

However, his enemy was not simply a Supreme Sovereign, but a level that was even more powerful than the Supreme Sovereign, it was the God of Creation.

If he wanted to deal with an existence at that level, it was likely that he would not be able to do it just by relying on the power of supreme arts.

He should seize the one and only opportunity to obtain even more powerful energy.

He would not synthesize it for the time being. Once he synthesized it, he would have to have the qualifications to reach the God of Creation realm!

Thinking of that, Ye Xiao canceled the idea of synthesizing it.

Although it was a pity, he knew that there was no other way.

A drop of water formed a sea. He still needed to further accumulate his strength.

He had decided that he must kill more Sacred Sovereigns from the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall and the Void Alliance.

With that in mind, he tore open the spatial barrier once again and stepped out.

Just as he came out, he suddenly realized that there was a lesser Celestial Sovereign standing in front of him!

What was even more unexpected was that the lesser Celestial Sovereign was actually scratching his crotch.

“…”

The two of them looked at each other, and the air felt a little awkward for a moment.

A moment later, the lesser Celestial Sovereign slowly withdrew his hand and stared at Ye Xiao with a gloomy expression. The strength in his body was already rapidly expanding.

It was very obvious that he wanted to make a move against Ye Xiao.

However, it was a pity that his thoughts were very beautiful, but the reality was very bleak.

Following the slash of a sword light, he walked with incomparable peace.

It was only at the moment of his death that he realized how huge a mistake he had made.

That fellow was able to hide in the alternate dimension in front of him, and his divine sense had yet to be able to scan him.

Then his cultivation had already become incredibly powerful.

At that time, the thing that he should have chosen was to run away, not to go against him.

In the end, he had chosen the wrong decision.

Even so, there was no room for regret. He quickly became the nourishment that helped Ye Xiao raise his cultivation.

After Ye Xiao absorbed him, he obtained another sacred art, as well as some improvements in his cultivation.

However, compared to those, what was more important was that he obtained a portion of his memories.

Those were the memories related to the Void Alliance and the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall. It was the Void Alliance’s next battle plan.

The Void Alliance attempted to surround the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall and carry out the final decisive battle.

“Looks like they should have already noticed that the Lord of Heaven is advancing to the Supreme Sovereign realm.

“This should be the final battle between the two of them. Perhaps, I should personally go over and take a look.

“At the final moment, regardless of which side wins, as long as they are weaker than me, I don’t need to waste time and directly annex them.

“If both sides make peace, then I’ll settle for the second best. I’ll continue to spy on them in the dark and wait for an opportunity.

“In short, we are in an invincible position!”

After saying that, he turned around and instantly disappeared from where he was heading.

…

At the same time, outside the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall the void, the Void Alliance had already sent out all their forces to surround the sacred hall.

“Senior Wu, we have already completely surrounded the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall, but the Lord of Heaven still hasn’t come out. It seems like it is really as you expected. He is concentrating on cultivating and advancing the Supreme Sovereign realm.”

Wu Shi Shui nodded.

“This guy has always been arrogant. He would never allow us to provoke him like this. Now that so many people from our Void Alliance have come and surrounded his territory, he still hasn’t come out. This means that he is most likely at the critical moment of his closed-door cultivation and has no way to come out.

“Now might be the best time for us to attack. If we miss it, we might never have such a good opportunity again.

“In fact, if we let him successfully advance, we won’t even be able to escape, let alone attack.”

After saying that, everyone’s expressions changed drastically.

“Since that’s the case, let’s not wait any longer. Let’s go all out and start the battle.”

With that order, the Void Alliance’s Sacred Sovereigns took the initiative to attack!

In an instant, countless lightning-like attacks rained down on the barrier of the sacred hall.

However, the barrier of the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall had been carefully strengthened by the other party. Even if so many Sacred Sovereigns joined hands, they would not be able to break it.

The Sacred Sovereigns in the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall could not help but heave a sigh of relief when they saw that scene.

What they were most afraid of was that the barrier would be broken.

The Lord of Heaven Yin Shi was still in seclusion and had not come out yet.

If the barrier was broken, they would definitely be massacred.

At that time, they would be dead for sure.

“Fortunately, we have the array set up by the Lord. Otherwise, we would be finished.”

“That being said, we can’t rely too much on the defensive array. Immediately activate the offensive array and turn the defense into an attack. Otherwise, no matter how strong the barrier is, there will be a time when it can’t hold on.”

“Activate the offensive array. Kill them!”

The offensive array was activated, and countless rays of light clashed with the attacks of the Void Alliance’s Sacred Sovereign. A brand-new white-hot zone was formed outside the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall.

Energy layers continuously formed in that zone. Even a lesser Celestial Sovereign would not feel good inside.

It was possible for him to fall.

From the outside, it looked like the entire sacred hall was surrounded.

When the Wu Shi Shui and the other Sacred Sovereigns saw that scene, their expressions were grave.

“I didn’t expect him to have this trick up his sleeve. The longer we delay, the more dangerous it will be for us.”

“However, it’s useless even if he has this trick up his sleeve. Today, he’s dead for sure. No matter who comes, it won’t work.”

With that, the Celestial Sovereigns moved out!
