Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Lower Realm, Covenant Council Hall.

Lord Xie himself brewed tea. Seeing that Jun Wu Xie remained composed and didn't mention what they had discussed on the road, he couldn't hold back any longer. He wanted to speak but hesitated, unsure whether he should open his mouth, caught between wanting to say something and holding back.

He knew very well that if he asked first, it would be difficult to refuse, as it would imply he was willing to take the blame for the Dawn Dynasty.

However, if he firmly refused, it would be equivalent to cutting off the opportunity to express his stance to the Dawn Dynasty.

For a moment, Lord Xie hesitated.

After all, this matter was no small feat, concerning the reputation of the Lower Realm Covenant and whether he would bear infamy for the rest of his life.

The worst thing was being exploited by opponents who seized the opportunity to stir up public opinion.

Although as the master of the Lower Realm Covenant, a powerhouse in the Mixed Origin Saint Realm, he didn't really care what others thought or said.

But no matter what, having people criticize him behind his back was never a good thing.

Moreover, the people of this City of Misfortune would eventually leave this barren land. Once their reputation was tarnished, they would easily be hated and targeted.

There were many ordinary cultivators in this city who couldn't withstand group targeting. In severe cases, they would be attacked and killed upon venturing out.

"Lord Xie seems troubled. Are you thinking about the three clans or the life and death of the future?"

Jun Wu Xie leisurely took a sip of tea. Zi Yun sat beside him, her cold and beautiful face expressionless, her eyes deep.

His acquaintances sat at nearby tables, also enjoying the Lower Realm Covenant's fragrant tea.

"No, I'm wondering what Lord Jun will say to me."

Lord Xie's thoughts were exposed, but he was unwilling to admit it. He didn't want to be put in a passive position at this moment.

"What I want to say is simple. This great era is different from the past. The rise and fall of powers are minor matters. Before the arrival of the apocalyptic torrent, the major life stars in the starry sky are likely to be swept up in a massive storm.

Leaving aside the apocalyptic torrent, it's uncertain whether your Lower Realm Covenant can withstand this storm before the darkness invades."

"Where will the storm come from?"

Lord Xie looked at him with some surprise. Although he had considered this question and felt that such a thing might happen, he didn't expect this young man to think of it.

After all, his speculation was based on his understanding of the Upper Realm's historical secrets, while this young man had only been in the Upper Realm for a little over a dozen years!

"The origin of the storm will be related to darkness."

"Didn't you say the storm would come before the darkness invades? How is it related to darkness?"

Lord Xie revealed a strange expression, somewhat puzzled.

"Does Lord Xie think that there are no shadows of darkness in this world before the darkness invades? Over the long years, how many apocalyptic torrents has the Dark Universe launched? Some forces in our universe have already been infiltrated.

I can tell you clearly that darkness has always existed, lurking in our Bright Universe.

The Soul Hunting Sacred Hall and the Heaven Cleansing Sacred Sect, Lord Xie should be familiar with them. Who does Lord Xie think is behind them?"

"Lord Jun means that the Soul Hunting Sacred Hall and the Heaven Cleansing Sacred Sect are backed by darkness?" Lord Xie was shocked. After thinking carefully, he shook his head: "No! That's impossible! This matter is too outrageous. How can Lord Jun expect me to believe it?

Although the Soul Hunting Sacred Hall has a fierce and notorious reputation, it has existed for a long time. Although it constantly hunts the origins and souls of ancient bloodline holders, it has never been heard of helping the darkness against the cultivators of our universe during the apocalyptic torrent. How can it be proven that they have already defected to the darkness?"

"If they had helped the darkness against the cultivators of this universe in previous apocalyptic torrents, wouldn't they have been exposed long ago?

Why does Lord Xie think the Soul Hunting Sacred Hall hunts ancient blood? The fundamental purpose is to collect the origin of heaven and earth in the Bright Universe for the darkness behind them.

You should know very well that each ancient bloodline holder's bloodline contains some of the purest ancient source of heaven and earth in the universe.

Since ancient times, how many ancient bloodline holders have been hunted by the Soul Hunting Sacred Hall, but they themselves have not used these ancient blood essences to transform their bloodlines on a large scale. Why is this? Has Lord Xie thought deeply about it?"

"This…"

Lord Xie's expression changed. He had thought about this and had doubts, but he couldn't figure it out. He thought that the Soul Hunting Sacred Hall's acquisition of ancient blood essences might have other uses, and he didn't think in the direction of darkness at all.

After all, after each retreat of darkness, the traces of dark creatures would disappear in this universe and never appear. Who would have thought that the eternal-level forces of this universe would be related to dark creatures in this situation?

"Lord Jun's analysis is reasonable. This matter is indeed suspicious. However, if there is only this point, and the purpose of those ancient blood essences has not been confirmed, it cannot be said for sure that the Soul Hunting Sacred Hall is related to darkness…"

"Lord Xie's ancestors came from the Lower Realm. You should know that there is a Soul Hunting Hall in the Lower Realm."

"Of course I know that. That's right."

"Then does Lord Xie know that there are also Soul Hunting organizations in higher-level cultivation civilization universes, but they are not called Soul Hunting Sacred Hall, but Soul Hunting Divine Hall."

"What?" Lord Xie was holding his teacup, ready to take a sip, but when he heard this, he was so shocked that he almost dropped the teacup on the table.

He looked at Jun Wu Xie in shock, "How does Lord Jun know that there is a Soul Hunting Divine Hall in the God Realm? Everything about the God Realm is extremely mysterious. One can only find sporadic records in some ancient notes, and those records are not authoritative, making it difficult to trace the truth, and impossible to distinguish between truth and falsehood!"

"I come from the God Realm."

Jun Wu Xie's faint voice shocked Lord Xie so much that he stood up directly, his lips trembling, unable to make a sound.

This young man comes from the God Realm?

Is he telling the truth?

He is actually a person from the God Realm. Didn't he grow up in a small town in the Lower Realm?

"Lord Xie doesn't need to be so surprised. Sit down first."

Jun Wu Xie signaled him to sit, and then said in his surprised and uncertain eyes: "You don't really understand the God Realm. The God Realm is just what you call that universe world. In fact, that universe is called the Divine Ancient World.

I was originally from the Divine Ancient World. Back then, due to…"

Jun Wu Xie briefly talked about his experiences.

Now, there is no need to strictly keep the matters about himself in the Divine Ancient World secret, and he doesn't mind telling Lord Xie.

He has now cultivated to the late stage of the Supreme Saint Realm. After that, there will be the Mixed Origin and Eternal Saint Realms. By then, he will be the ceiling of this world. After the apocalyptic torrent, he should return to the Divine Ancient World.

"I really didn't expect that Lord Jun's life would be so bumpy, but Lord Jun survived a great disaster, and there will be great fortune in the future! If I hadn't heard you talk about these things, I really couldn't imagine the Divine Ancient World…"

Lord Xie's eyes showed a deep longing. How many powerhouses in the Upper Realm don't want to go to the Divine Ancient World?

Perhaps some people want to stay in this world, but that is only a very small number, and there are special reasons. Other powerhouses all want to go to the Divine Ancient World.

Because the cultivation civilization of the Divine Ancient World is higher, the resources there are more abundant, and only that world has the source of divine power.

Only by reaching that world can one build the foundation of the God Realm and step into the realm of the gods, and this cannot be done in this Lower Realm, lacking the corresponding grade of energy source!

Cultivators all want to go higher and further, this is inevitable, and no one can deny it!

"The Soul Hunting Sacred Hall of the Upper Realm has spent so much effort and energy to lay out the situation. It seems that Lord Jun's origin has a very special meaning for them.

However, this doesn't seem to explain that they are related to darkness."

"Of course, these alone cannot say that they are related to darkness, but these are all doubts. Have you seen any forces that exist in every universe world? Except for the Soul Hunting Hall and the Heaven Cleansing Sect.

Deep in the forbidden area of the Soul Hunting Hall in the Lower Realm, there is a different space that is connected to darkness. I can't prove this to you now."

"Is this true?"

When Lord Xie heard this, if what this young man said was true, then there is likely to be a connection between the Soul Hunting Hall and darkness!

"There is no need for me to deceive you about this kind of thing. If I want to deal with the Soul Hunting Sacred Hall and the Heaven Cleansing Sacred Sect in the Upper Realm, I can do it with my own power in the near future, and there is no need to use this to scare you and drag your Lower Realm Covenant to be my helper."

"Isn't Lord Jun too confident?" Lord Xie naturally didn't believe it, and said: "Lord Jun is very strong, and his growth talent is only seen in ancient times, there is no doubt about this. At the same time, Lord Jun's methods are clever, able to make eternal giants willingly join your command.

I know very well that there must be other eternal powerhouses under Lord Jun's command, so the true strength of the Dawn Dynasty is beyond the imagination of the world, a hundred times stronger than what is seen on the surface!

However, even so, Lord Jun said that the Dawn Dynasty alone can deal with the Soul Hunting Sacred Hall and the Heaven Cleansing Sacred Sect, which is a bit of a fantasy.

Whether it is the Soul Hunting Sacred Hall or the Heaven Cleansing Sacred Sect, they have a long inheritance and have tens of thousands of years of accumulation. I don't know how many eternal giants are sleeping in their forbidden areas, and the number of eternal powerhouses below the giants is even unimaginable!

Furthermore, Lord Jun said that they are backed by darkness, so they must be even more powerful and terrifying, and cannot be measured by common sense."

"That's right, they are indeed very powerful and unfathomable as you said, but Lord Xie underestimated the strength of my Dawn Dynasty."

As Jun Wu Xie spoke, he summoned Long Huan out.

As soon as Long Huan appeared, he slightly released some of the pressure of an eternal giant, which immediately made Lord Xie feel cold all over, and his body and mind were greatly shaken!

Eternal Giant!

There is actually an eternal giant hiding in this young man's body!

Lord Xie was really shocked beyond measure!

Such beings are normally invisible and can only be seen at the pinnacle of each golden age, or when the torrent of the apocalypse confronts the dark invasion.

Now, two eternal giants are constantly by this young man's side, acting as his bodyguards. This is truly outrageous!

The existences at the ceiling of the upper realm are all willing to do this!

This young man's methods are truly remarkable and terrifying. How on earth did he do it?

"These two are just a fraction of what Alliance Master Xie sees. My Dawn Dynasty has even more powerhouses of this level that you cannot see."

Hearing this, Alliance Master Xie's lips trembled, and he didn't know what to say.

Even more eternal giants?

How many eternal giants does the Dawn Dynasty actually have?

Judging from this, the number of eternal giants in the Dawn Dynasty is probably no less than that of their Lower Realm Alliance.

The most terrifying thing is that the eternal giants of the Dawn Dynasty are not in a sealed and dormant state, but in a state of being in the world!

He knew that Jun Wuxie was showing him his powerful strength, putting psychological pressure on him, and increasing the likelihood of him making the choice he wanted.

"If, and I mean if, our Lower Realm Alliance is willing to form an alliance with Lord Jun's Dawn Dynasty, can we relocate to the territory of the Dawn Dynasty?"

Alliance Master Xie's eyes were filled with hope.

They, for generations, have wanted to leave the Ominous State and this land of deserts and yellow sand.

Although there are massive high-grade mineral resources beneath the land here, the surface environment is truly too harsh, and living here is really uncomfortable.

"Of course, you are welcome to the Dawn Dynasty at any time. However, the mineral resources here cannot be abandoned and must continue to be mined, and the intensity of mining must be increased."

Hearing this, Alliance Master Xie sighed and shook his head, saying, "We also want to increase the intensity of mining, but things don't go as planned."

He explained that the underground mineral resources of the Ominous State are interfered with by a mysterious magnetic field derived from the will of the earth, and people above the Supreme Saint Realm cannot enter the mines for mining, otherwise they will encounter misfortune.

Their ancestors had suffered losses because of this, and many Supreme Saint Realms had perished inside.

"The geology of the veins is also very special and too hard. Even with people of the Saint Emperor and Saint Ancestor Realm leading the mining, the speed is limited.

However, the mining speed is completely sufficient for our use, and there is even a slight surplus, but it is very difficult and impossible to accumulate a large amount of surplus."

"I can use the Dao of Talismans to solve this matter."

Jun Wuxie already understood Alliance Master Xie's attitude and position. He had already tacitly agreed to take the blame for him. Since they had discussed these things, it meant that he had already agreed.

"Yes, Xie had forgotten that Lord Jun has a Grandmaster Talisman Master of the Primordial Chaos level under his command. With the help of such a Talisman Master, perhaps the mining speed can really be increased!"

Speaking of this, Alliance Master Xie asked, "When does Lord Jun plan for us to take action?"

"Tonight, annihilate the three clans in one night!"

Jun Wuxie gave the time, but Alliance Master Xie showed a look of embarrassment, "Is Lord Jun in such a hurry? Although our Lower Realm Alliance is an eternal force, it is not advisable for the powerful eternal experts to come out at the moment.

If the three clans face the crisis of annihilation, all the sleeping eternals will awaken and take action, so we need time to prepare…"

"No preparation is needed. I am asking you to take the blame, not just to take action. I will also take action. With my two eternal giants here, they won't be able to make waves."

"Since that's the case, then that's naturally for the best!"

Alliance Master Xie was delighted. In this way, their eternal experts would not have to come out forcefully.

"It's settled then. Now, I will first take my old friends away. I want everyone in the city to know that we have left. At that time, I will quietly return."

After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he stood up directly, and Alliance Master Xie sent him all the way to the mountain gate.

"Lord Jun, why are you doing this? You can just destroy the three clans directly, why bother so much?"

Long Huan expressed his incomprehension, feeling that it was too troublesome. As for the infamy, he didn't think that Lord Jun would really care about it.
