Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

As Long Yuan's words faded, Jun Wu Xie saw a woman descending from the distant sky.

Her figure was slender, her blue dress and silky blue hair swaying gently in the wind. Her skin was as delicate as solidified fat, crystal clear and snow-white. Her bright blue eyes, paired with exquisite and flawless features, made her a beauty capable of captivating a nation.

"Young Master Jun, it's been a while."

Long Xi's face was radiant with a smile as she landed before him, her bright blue eyes looking at him with a smile.

In her eyes, Jun Wu Xie saw a brilliance that hadn't been there before. She seemed more confident, and he couldn't help but smile, saying, "It seems your bloodline issues have been resolved. I am happy for you."

"Thanks to Young Master Jun. If it weren't for Young Master Jun, Long Xi would still be trapped in the shadows."

She said with a smile, then turned to look at the old man and the young man kneeling beside her, the smile vanishing from her face, replaced by an icy expression.

Feeling her cold aura, the old man and the young man went limp, trembling even more violently, sweat pouring down their faces like rain.

"Princess, spare us! We know we were wrong!"

They begged loudly, no longer possessing their previous aggressive demeanor.

"What are you? How dare you target this princess's benefactor?" As Long Xi spoke, she shattered the young man's head with a single palm strike, causing him to scream miserably as his brains splattered, his eyes wide with shock as he collapsed to the ground.

The others who had attacked with the young man were scared out of their wits, begging incessantly.

But their fate was already sealed.

Without another word, Long Xi killed them on the spot, leaving only the old man who was so terrified that he couldn't even kneel steadily.

"Uncle Yuan."

Long Xi spoke, and Long Yuan understood. He glared at the old man, and the old man exploded on the spot, turning into a pile of minced meat.

Jun Wu Xie was shocked. Just how strong was this Long Yuan? What realm was he in?

The old man cultivated Saint Spirit True Qi, indicating that he was a Saint Realm expert, yet he was obliterated by Long Yuan's glare!

"Long Xi, there are probably many people in your Dragon Nest who are hostile towards me. Now that you've killed them, there will probably be even more people who hate me."

Jun Wu Xie teased with a smile.

Long Xi's expression faltered, and she said, "Young Master Jun, rest assured, no one in the Dragon Nest will dare to target you again. Otherwise, I will kill whoever targets you! Disrespecting you is disrespecting this princess, which is tantamount to rebellion. I will naturally exterminate the traitors."

Jun Wu Xie gave her a thumbs up, laughing, "With that accusation, who would dare?"

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. I'll take you to meet my father. Ever since he learned that you gave me the Ancestral Dragon Heart and heard about your deeds, he has always wanted to meet you, this amazing talent. Today, his wish can finally be fulfilled."

"The Dragon Lord wants to see me?"

Jun Wu Xie was stunned. The master of the Dragon Nest was the supreme ruler of this forbidden zone of life.

In other words, he should be a powerhouse at the same level as his ancestral master!

"Young Master Jun, don't worry, my father has no ill intentions towards you."

Long Xi explained, seeing that his expression was a little dazed.

"Let's go."

Jun Wu Xie came back to his senses. He wasn't afraid of whether the Dragon Lord had any ill intentions.

Along the way towards the depths of the Dragon Nest, the further Jun Wu Xie went, the more he realized that his speed was constantly decreasing, and the rules of order were becoming more and more powerful.

At the same time, the aura of that middle-aged man named Long Yuan was also becoming more and more powerful, so powerful that it made him feel suffocated.

"Uncle Yuan, pay attention."

Long Xi frowned slightly, looking at Long Yuan with some reproach.

Long Yuan reacted quickly, immediately and perfectly concealing his aura, giving Jun Wu Xie an apologetic look, saying, "Little friend, this old man was negligent."

"It's alright."

Jun Wu Xie smiled, unable to help but guess in his heart, what realm was this Long Yuan in?

Even the intensity of his talent growth seemed to have become stronger.

In the past, he seemed to be in the Myth realm, but now he felt that he was more than just in the Myth realm!

In the core area of the Dragon Nest, there was a huge abyss.

They arrived in front of the abyss and looked down. Clouds and mist swirled, and they could vaguely see palaces and halls below.

Landing at the bottom of the abyss, magnificent palaces and various majestic buildings came into view.

The environment here was very beautiful, with birds singing and flowers fragrant, waterfalls cascading, rivers like jade belts, and a special energy pervading the air.

Jun Wu Xie couldn't identify that kind of energy.

After inhaling it, he found that the energy was difficult to preserve, and it automatically leaked out of his body.

They arrived in a forest, where there was an exquisite and secluded courtyard.

In the courtyard, there was a valiant middle-aged man sitting in front of a jade table, brewing tea. Green smoke curled up, exuding a refreshing tea fragrance. Just by smelling the fragrance, Jun Wu Xie felt refreshed, as if his soul was about to float away.

"Little friend, please come in and sit."

The middle-aged man looked up, his gaze calm, with a faint smile on his face, but also an indescribable air of majesty, the aura of a superior.

Long Yuan stopped there, not continuing to follow.

Long Xi led Jun Wu Xie into the courtyard.

"Junior Jun Wu Xie greets the Dragon Lord."

Jun Wu Xie was certain that the person in front of him was the master of the Dragon Nest, Long Xi's father. His facial features were somewhat similar to Long Xi's, even the unintentional expressions were slightly alike.

"Little friend, no need to be so polite, please sit."

The Dragon Lord gestured, looking at him with a smile.

His smile was like warm sunshine, a gentle spring breeze, making people feel refreshed and happy.

Jun Wu Xie was not polite and immediately sat down opposite the Dragon Lord.

At this moment, the Dragon Lord stood up and made a move that shocked both Jun Wu Xie and Long Xi.

He actually bowed deeply to Jun Wu Xie.

Jun Wu Xie immediately jumped up, saying, "Dragon Lord, what do you mean by this?"

"Little friend, please sit down."

After the Dragon Lord finished speaking, Jun Wu Xie felt an invisible force that he couldn't break free from, forcing him to sit on the jade stool.

"Dragon Lord, I can't accept this. You are a senior, and I am a junior. How can you bow to me?"

Jun Wu Xie was a little anxious. This was truly unexpected. The person in front of him was the master of a forbidden zone of life, unfathomable, and undoubtedly an Emperor-level figure, all-powerful.

"Little friend, don't panic. The one bowing to you at this moment is not the master of the forbidden zone, but just an ordinary father. Thank you for giving Xi'er the Ancestral Dragon Heart, giving Xi'er hope in life, and also allowing me to step out of the haze of many years and remove the boulder pressing on my heart."

"Father..."

Long Xi's eyes were filled with tears. She knew that her father loved her very much, but she never thought that her father would go to such lengths, an Emperor-level powerhouse bowing to Jun Wu Xie.

At this moment, she truly understood how important she was in her father's heart.

"Dragon Lord, please don't do this, it makes me feel very uncomfortable."

Jun Wu Xie was really speechless. An Emperor-level powerhouse bowing to him. Fortunately, he was a congenital fate variable. If it were someone else, how many people could withstand the cause and effect of this Emperor-level powerhouse's bow?

"Haha, please understand a father's feelings."

The Dragon Lord sat down with a smile, and Jun Wu Xie also felt the force that had forced him to sit down disappear.

"Xi'er's life was hard. Her mother was seriously injured when she was pregnant with her, which led to her congenital bloodline defects. If it weren't for the Ancestral Dragon Heart you gave her, Xi'er would probably never be able to embark on the path of the strong in this life. As the daughter of the master of the forbidden zone, this is such a cruel thing."

"It's all fate, perhaps Long Xi's life had such a tribulation, but fortunately, it has all passed now."

Jun Wu Xie responded.

"There are still many tribulations to come. You are a noble person in Xi'er's life. I hope that in the future, you can help her overcome those tribulations."

"If Long Xi needs help, as long as I know about it, I will definitely not stand idly by."

"Since little friend says so, then I am relieved. With your help as a congenital fate variable, I believe that the difficulties Xi'er will face in the future will always turn into good fortune."

Jun Wu Xie's heart was shaken. The Dragon Lord had actually seen that he was a fate variable.

You must know that his secret cannot be seen through by Emperor-level powerhouses.

There are beings at the Heavenly Emperor level by his side, so even Emperor-level powerhouses should not be able to see through it.

But the Dragon Lord saw it, which means that Qingxue and Aunt You had not hidden his secret from the Dragon Lord? Which also means that the Dragon Lord is definitely a trustworthy person in terms of the big picture?

"Little friend, if you have any business coming to the Dragon Nest today, please feel free to speak."

The Dragon Lord was naturally astute, knowing that he was definitely not just here to see his daughter.

"Then this junior will speak frankly." Jun Wu Xie organized his words, saying, "The doomsday torrent is about to arrive in the outside world. The prophecy says that this era is the darkest era. The enemies we will face are extremely terrifying. Therefore, before this, this junior wants to strengthen the camp's power as much as possible and wants to borrow the special environment of the Dragon Nest so that the people around me can break through the limitations of talent growth."

"Just for this matter?" The Dragon Lord smiled and took out a piece of Dragon Jade and placed it in front of him, saying, "Take this thing. With it, little friend can enter the core area of the Dragon Nest at any time. At the same time, when you arrive in the Dragon Nest, little friend, inject blood energy, and it will give you guidance to specific areas for the people around you to cultivate. In this Dragon Nest, little friend, you can be unrestricted, but your people can only go to the designated areas and cannot wander around."

"This junior thanks the Dragon Lord!"

Jun Wu Xie put away the jade pendant, stood up, clasped his fists and saluted.

With the Dragon Lord's promise, the restrictions on the intensity of talent growth outside would no longer be an obstacle.

"Sit down, you're welcome. You are indebted to Xi'er, helping you with this little matter is nothing. Little friend, if you have any other difficulties, please feel free to speak."

Hearing this, Jun Wu Xie thought for a while, and then said, "I am indeed encountering some difficult problems to solve..."

He immediately told the matter of his preparation to protect the myriad spirits of the universe and the difficulties involved, saying, "I wonder if senior can give me some guidance on how to move tens of millions of stars to the Emperor Beginning Star Region in a short period of time."

“There are no shortcuts,” the Dragon Lord said, shaking his head. “What you call a 'short time,' my young friend, is far too brief. Even with profound rune techniques, it would take a very, very long time. However, if you had enough powerful individuals helping you, that would be a different story. But one thing remains: how will you imbue those stars with life?”

“I do have a method, but I don't know if it will succeed, because I don’t know if she will help me. After all, this concerns the lower realm universe and is my own affair. I shouldn't be asking for help, but time is of the essence, and I have no other choice…”

Jun Wu Xie sighed. If he could get the Vermilion Bird to act, or his grandmaster and grandmaster's wife, there would definitely be no problem. But whether they would actually help was another matter.

“Father…”

Long Xi looked at the Dragon Lord, her eyes filled with pleading.

“Very well. I will send people to help you construct the ecological environment of the Emperor Beginning Star Region. Once the stars are in place, the Dragon Nest will send even stronger individuals to revitalize them.”

“Thank you, Senior!”

Jun Wu Xie hadn't expected the Dragon Lord to make such a promise, and he was both surprised and delighted.

With this, there was no need to worry any further. The entire star region's ecological environment could be constructed very quickly. For the forbidden area experts, handling this matter would be a piece of cake!

“Young friend, come and taste the tea of my Dragon Nest.”

The Dragon Lord pushed a cup of hot tea towards Jun Wu Xie.

Looking at the crystal-clear tea and smelling its fragrant aroma, Jun Wu Xie had long been unable to resist.

Just the scent of this tea seemed to make one's soul float. What would be the effect of drinking it?

Without even thinking, this tea had the effect of nourishing the soul.

Jun Wu Xie picked it up, took a small sip, and found it sweet and fragrant, leaving a lingering taste in his mouth that made him want more. So, he drank it all in one gulp.

“Young Master Jun, don't…”

Long Xi's expression changed slightly, but it was too late to stop him.

Looking at Jun Wu Xie again, after drinking the cup of tea, he seemed to have fallen asleep. He sat there with his eyes tightly closed, motionless. The light of his soul in his brow flickered brightly and dimly, uncertainly.

It seemed that his soul was in a very unstable state, as if something could go wrong at any moment.

“Father! Why didn't you stop him?”

Long Xi's face was filled with anxiety, and her eyes carried a hint of blame.

“Xi'er, don't worry. If he had sipped slowly, he would have only absorbed the effects of the first two sips. Drinking it all in one gulp might give him an even greater opportunity. With Father here, he will not be in danger. Now, how much he can absorb and to what extent he can elevate his soul depends on his own fortune.”

At this moment, Jun Wu Xie found himself in a dark space, unable to see anything around him.

He walked forward in the darkness, trying to find a way out. As he walked, faint light gradually appeared ahead.

Suddenly, the scene changed.

All around him were open doors, each door radiating a crystal-clear light.

“Is this the light of the soul?”

Jun Wu Xie was shocked. Dozens of doors around him were all emitting soul light, the kind of unowned soul light without will.

The soul light shone on him, making his soul feel incomparably comfortable.

But he had a feeling that he was facing a choice. Once he chose one of the doors, the other doors would be completely closed, and the soul light within would never be obtained again.

So, which door should he choose to enter?

Which door contained the purest soul light?

He tried to sense them with his soul, but he couldn't distinguish them. He couldn't see any difference with his Primitive True Eyes and Rune Eye Technique either.

“I still have to use my soul to sense them. To improve the sensitivity of my soul to soul light, I have to use the special sensing methods of a runemaster…”

Thinking this, the rune energy in the Qiankun Cave Heaven within his sea of consciousness surged. Countless runes were derived, each rune incomparably brilliant, combining with each other to form a special array, releasing mysterious energy that merged into his soul.

His perception was improving at an astonishing speed, and his perception of everything became clearer and more acute.

The light emitted from those soul doors finally had differences in his perception, gradually showing strong and weak distinctions.
