Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

After half an hour, Jun Wu Xie had repaired the damage to his body, and his spirit, energy, and essence were restored to their peak state.

He stood up, and Yue Chenyu followed suit.

"Stay here, don't come in."

He stopped Yue Chenyu, there was no need for both of them to go forward for a mere test, and the situation was currently unclear.

Yue Chenyu pondered for a moment, then said coldly, "Then be careful."

Jun Wu Xie nodded, and then stepped onto the platform.

However, the statue did not instantly revive, instead, the light of order lit up in the void in front of him, and at the same time, the sound of order rang out: "Starting from the thirty-seventh level, difficulty options are provided for clearing the level, and the level rewards increase with the difficulty mode. Each level's difficulty mode can only be selected once and cannot be changed once selected. Now, please select the difficulty mode."

As the sound of order fell, the light of order condensed into words in the void in front of him.

Normal Mode (One), Hard Mode (Two), Hell Mode (Three), Abyss Mode (Five), Nightmare Mode (Seven), Despair Mode (Nine).

Jun Wu Xie stood there stunned, there were actually so many difficulty mode options.

What did the numbers in parentheses after these difficulty modes mean?

It was obviously not the sequential number of the difficulty modes, otherwise the Abyss Mode would not have jumped directly to five, but should have been four!

He fell into silence, thinking.

Yue Chenyu quietly stared at his back from the steps below the platform.

She didn't know what mode he would choose, but she knew that she shouldn't influence his choice.

"Order Administrator, what is the difference between the rewards obtained when clearing Despair Mode and other modes?"

He knew that since Order had set different difficulty modes starting from this level, it should provide answers for the challengers.

"The number of Holy Source rewards obtained is different, and the first clear of each level in Despair Mode will additionally receive a reward of Universe Obsidian."

The sound of order echoed in the air, deep and desolate.

"Universe Obsidian?"

Jun Wu Xie was stunned, he had previously obtained information about the Universe Battle Armor and the Universe Spirit Stone, but there was no mention of Universe Obsidian!

The sound of order explained: "There are three types of Universe Stones below the Holy Realm, Universe Spirit Star Stone, Universe Spirit Obsidian, and Universe Spirit Yang Stone. Spirit represents their grade, hence they are also named Universe Star Stone, Universe Obsidian, and Universe Yang Stone, which are used for upgrading and forging different stages of the Universe Battle Armor respectively."

"This… is different from the information I received before."

Jun Wu Xie was speechless, there were actually detailed distinctions.

"The information you received before, the so-called Universe Stone, is a general term for the three types of Universe Stones: Star, Obsidian, and Yang."

"…" Jun Wu Xie thought for a while and said: "Is it only possible to obtain the reward of Universe Spirit Obsidian by clearing the Despair Mode? Is it not possible in other modes?"

"That's right, only the first clear in Despair Mode can obtain the Universe Spirit Obsidian."

The sound of order gave an affirmative answer.

"Where can I obtain the Universe Spirit Yang Stone later, will there be such a reward in the later levels?"

"Naturally, there is. Starting from the forty-sixth level, the first clear in Despair Mode difficulty will receive the drop reward of Universe Spirit Yang Stone."

It only starts dropping from the forty-sixth level?

He couldn't imagine how perverted the forty-sixth level would be.

In the current level, the Order Administrator has created so many modes, it must be very difficult, especially under the Despair Mode, I'm afraid it will be extremely perverted.

"May I ask, how many levels are there in total?"

"There are a total of fifty levels, set according to the number of Great Evolution, and the fiftieth level is the ultimate level. Passing the forty-ninth level, you can reach the ultimate land and start the ultimate challenge. Challenger, you have too many questions, please choose the difficulty mode now."

"I choose Despair Mode!"

Jun Wu Xie reached out and clicked on the words Despair Mode.

Instantly, the orderly text in the air disappeared, and the sound of order rang out in a timely manner: "Challenger, I admire your courage, I wish you good luck."

As the sound fell.

The statue in the middle of the platform instantly revived, and a powerful aura permeated, sweeping across the entire platform.

Jun Wu Xie's golden blood energy soared into the sky, the Primal Soldier Dissolution and Blood Transformation into Demon were superimposed, the Fighting Word Secret Art in his body operated frantically, he rushed up and faced the hammer that was smashing down frantically.

At this moment, the guard roared, and dense runes of order lit up all over his body.

Around his body, nine guards appeared out of thin air, all of them were of the same kind as the previous level, the first level of the Ancient Legend Realm, the early stage of the Middle Celestial Position.

One by one, the hammers smashed towards Jun Wu Xie like a blanket of the sky.

"Fuck!"

Jun Wu Xie's expression suddenly changed, and the muscles on his face twitched a few times.

He could actually summon, and he summoned nine at once!

He, with the superimposed double forbidden techniques, could block the nine small guards, but the guard leader was a strong man in the middle stage of the Middle Celestial Position.

He commanded his little brothers to rush to the front, and from a distance, he swung his hammer in the air and madly smashed at Jun Wu Xie!

Jun Wu Xie's Word of Travel and Word of Defense were added to his body, the golden blood energy was constructed in a circle, dodging with the ultimate speed he could achieve, temporarily avoiding the edge, trying to find an opportunity to attack the guard leader.

He was very clear that as long as the leader was defeated, these summoned guards would disappear into smoke.

But he tried his best and used his combat skills to the extreme, but he couldn't find an opportunity to attack the leader.

On the one hand, he had to dodge the leader's hammer blows, and on the other hand, he had to avoid the siege of the summoned guards. It was really overwhelming, he could only dodge, and he had no chance to fight back at all.

It didn't matter if he was hit a few times by the summoned guards, he could barely withstand it, but if he was hit by the leader's hammer, it would definitely be a critical hit!

Clang!

The sound of a sword resounded through the heavens, and the sword intent of time permeated.

Yue Chenyu came in, her sword energy crisscrossing, slashing towards those summoned guards, but because Jun Wu Xie was unable to contain them, they were blocked by their hammers, making it difficult to be effective.

The two joined forces, shuttling in the middle of this wide platform, fighting fiercely with the guards.

As time passed, their consumption was very severe, but the progress of clearing the level was still stagnant.

So far, the leader's damage-bearing value was still full, and only two of the nine guards he summoned had their damage-bearing value worn away by twenty or thirty percent, but as the mysterious runes on the leader's body lit up, the damage-bearing values of those summoned guards instantly filled up.

Yue Chenyu's mouth overflowed with blood after being shocked by the collision with the guards' hammers. Jun Wu Xie's body was also sore. In the collision with the leader, he also forcibly resisted the attacks of his guards. The blood in his body was surging, and he almost vomited a mouthful of blood several times.

"No, this level is too perverted, I must use external force!"

Jun Wu Xie saw that there was no hope of passing the level with regular combat. If he stopped to break through the realm, it was very likely that he would be caught up by the Dragon Girl and the young supreme of the Golden Ancient Mine.

He must ensure that he passes this level, and then take the time to attack the realm to be stable.

Because this level will definitely trap the Dragon Girl and the young supreme of the Golden Ancient Mine for a period of time, forcing them to stop and attack the realm, unless they give up all their pride and choose the easiest Normal Mode.

Obviously, as young supreme beings from the forbidden zone, although they may not choose Despair Mode, they will definitely not choose Normal Mode!

Now, on this road of trials, he cannot summon Lan Lan, he can only use the Hidden Bone Spirit Pearl.

With a thought, the Guardian Shield was activated.

Now, he was no longer afraid of being hit. Stepping on the Word of Travel, he looked for gaps in the summoned guards' attacks, locked onto the leader, and directly used a Life Cutting Technique.

Invalid!

Boom!

Almost at the same time, several hammers hit him while he was attacking the leader.

Although he was protected by the Guardian Shield, and he was not hurt himself, the violent force directly smashed him out, and his feet were still sliding backwards on the ground for hundreds of meters after landing.

Pfft!

The moment he was blasted away, the attack targets of the guards became Yue Chenyu. Nine hammers plus the leader's hammer came from all directions, forcibly collapsing the sword energy of time.

Yue Chenyu stepped on the Time Step, dodging while continuously performing several defensive secret techniques.

With a bang.

She dodged most of the attacks, but was still hit by three of the hammers, directly blasting her out, the runes of the defensive secret technique collapsing, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

Rumble!

At the same time, a vision of the collapse of the universe and the reversal of yin and yang bloomed in the fist seal as bright as the great sun, blasting forward, crushing the void, and shaking back the hammer chasing Yue Chenyu.

Jun Wu Xie's body slid backwards, taking the opportunity to retreat to Yue Chenyu's side.

"Are you okay?"

Jun Wu Xie saw that her muscles were cracked, obviously forcibly cracked by the force of the hammer, and blood had soaked her clothes.

Yue Chenyu shook her head, indicating that such injuries did not affect her combat power.

"What are you fighting for, get out of here!"

"No! I still have several sublimation-type forbidden techniques. If they are superimposed, there is hope to pass this level!"

At this moment, hammers came from all directions, making the void collapse beyond recognition.

Jun Wu Xie's pupils shrank. He turned around, facing the hammers with his back, and protected Yue Chenyu in his arms.

Bang!

Both of them were blasted out. With the protection of the Guardian Shield, he and Yue Chenyu were unharmed.

"What are you pretending to be strong for? How many forbidden techniques can your physical body superimpose? Are you trying to die?"

Jun Wu Xie forcibly picked her up and rushed to the edge of the platform, directly throwing her onto the steps.

The guards will not attack this range, and all energy aftermath will not spread outside the platform.

Seeing that he was turning around to return to the battle, Yue Chenyu immediately rushed up, trying to enter the platform and fight alongside him.

"Stop! If you dare to come in, I will spank your butt, do you dare to disobey the words of the Sect Master Senior Brother? This is an order!"

Jun Wuxie, his face grim, issued a deep command, causing Yue Chenyu to pause, stunned in place. She finally shook her head, not stubbornly pressing forward.

Returning to the platform battlefield, Jun Wuxie frantically refined divine beast essence blood and Scarlet Jade Ginseng within his Dao Palace to repair his physical body, providing a continuous supply of lifeblood. Simultaneously, he unleashed the Primordial Sword Embryo, the Immortal Execution Sword Intent cleaving through the nine heavens!

Using the "Word" Secret to move, while dodging the combined assault of the leader and guards, he condensed the strongest soldier intent and merged it with the Immortal Execution Sword Intent, seeking an opportunity to attack the leader with the Immortal Slaying Sword Draw Technique.

In this process, he was constantly struck by the great hammer. For every successful strike against the leader, he would be hit by the hammer several times.

There were simply too many opponents. Primarily, the leader, a powerful adversary, restricted his movements, making it difficult for the "Word" Secret to perfectly evade all attacks.

Especially when he launched an attack on the leader, the nine guards would seize the opportunity to block all his escape routes, unleashing a thunderous bombardment.

Clearly, these guards, formed from order, were extremely shrewd, possessing an acute battle awareness. They wouldn't miss any opportunity to attack, controlling the situation perfectly.

Fortunately, he had the Shield of Defense, which could completely withstand all attacks, though each time he would be blasted away.

And so, he slowly whittled away at the leader's damage threshold using the Immortal Slaying Sword Draw Technique.

After a grueling half-day of fierce battle, he had worn down sixty to seventy percent of the leader's damage threshold!

But by this point, his physical body was also extremely damaged.

The dual forbidden techniques stacked together were too terrifying. Even with his strong and abnormal physical body, astonishing recovery ability, and the aid of divine beast essence blood and Scarlet Jade Ginseng, he still couldn't withstand such a long period of consumption from the dual forbidden techniques.

Furthermore, he could feel that the energy within the Shield Spirit Pearl of the Bone Burial Spirit Pearl was being depleted rapidly. He estimated that it could only last for another half-day at most. At that point, he would lose the defensive effect and be unable to activate the Shield of Defense!

"There's no turning back. I must clear the leader's damage threshold before the Shield Spirit Pearl's energy is completely exhausted, or everything will be in vain, a wasted effort!"

Jun Wuxie's eyes held a resolute glint. Even with his severely damaged body, he forcibly maintained peak offensive power, constantly seeking opportunities to attack with the Immortal Slaying Sword Draw Technique.

If he missed this opportunity, it was unknown when the Shield Spirit Pearl, having exhausted its energy, would be able to fully recover. If he wanted to clear the level then, he would only be able to spend time breaking through realms and increasing his talent growth intensity. In that case, it was highly likely that he would be overtaken in progress by the people from those two great life-forbidden zones.

He had to maintain his lead at all times, only in that way could he guarantee security.

Otherwise, without the first clear, he would not be able to obtain the materials needed to upgrade and forge the Universe Battle Armor.
