Chapter 613: Nine Phoenix and the Shadow Demon
Chapter 613: Nine Phoenix and the Shadow Demon
Outside the battlefield.
Several Venerable Chaos Venerables were intently observing from a distance.
Far away, the space-time had completely split off from the Xuanhuang Universe, forming its own realm. The nine Great Chaos Saints were likely inside, engaging in all-out battles.
However, as they watched, the Venerables began to sense something amiss.
It was too quiet.
Too quiet.
Normally, with the power of a Great Chaos Saint, even the aftershocks of their battles would cause the heavens to collapse and the earth to shatter. The clash between the newly ascended Great Saints Nine Phoenix and Shadow Demon would have caused entire innate universes to prematurely enter the Great Destruction, forcing even the venerable Ancient Ming to retreat early to avoid severe injuries.
This was true for the two newly ascended Great Saints.
How much more for nine Great Saints? Among these nine, three were particularly formidable, while the newly ascended Great Saints like Shadow Demon and Nine Phoenix were the weakest.
For such a group of terrifying powerhouses, their mutual battles to be so silent? The isolated space-time showed not a ripple.
"Could it be that the nine Great Saints haven't even started fighting?"
"Without fighting? In the face of such a precious treasure, not even a move?"
"Indeed, that treasure that emerged is likely at the level of a Supreme Great Saint. At that level, even Supreme Great Saints can't resist making a move, let alone Great Chaos Saints."
"If it weren't for the fact that I would die if I tried, I would have wanted to compete."
The expressions of the numerous Venerable Chaos Venerables were peculiar. Logically, they were certain that the nine Great Saints would inevitably fight over the treasure.
But the current scene showed no signs of any conflict, which left the Venerable Chaos Venerables puzzled.
"Let's keep watching."
"What's the rush?"
One Venerable Chaos Venerable said, as they had no interest in the treasure and continued to observe.
What the numerous Venerable Chaos Venerables didn't know was that it wasn't that the Dual Source, Black Obsidian, and Savage Great Saints hadn't made a move. Rather, the power of Lin Yuan's external universe had completely enveloped and suppressed any aftershocks from their actions, preventing them from reaching the outside world.
"Can't escape?"
"The space-time is sealed. With my strength, I can't tear open a passage to the outside."
Tianlu Great Saint felt a chill in his heart after seeing Dual Source, Black Obsidian, and Savage Great Saints being comprehensively suppressed by Lin Yuan.
Tianlu Great Saint realized that Dual Source Great Saint had been overconfident or had underestimated Lin Yuan's strength.
To resist?
Could they even save their lives, let alone resist?
At this moment, Tianlu Great Saint began to regret. Had he known that agreeing to Lin Yuan's request to leave the universe would have avoided all this, he would have done so immediately.
He had insisted on joining forces with Dual Source Great Saint.
"Hmm?"
While dealing with Dual Source Great Saint, Black Obsidian Great Saint, and Savage Great Saint, Lin Yuan also noticed the actions of the other six Chaos Great Saints.
In fact, it wasn't just Tianlu Great Saint. Upon seeing Dual Source Great Saint and the other two formidable Chaos Great Saints being easily suppressed, Nine Phoenix Great Saint, Shadow Demon Great Saint, and the others had their first thought as escape.
They immediately began moving in different directions to get away.
But unfortunately, the surrounding space-time had all become part of Lin Yuan's external universe.
Ordinary Chaos Great Saints couldn't break free from the space-time constraints.
"Seal."
Lin Yuan glanced at the six Chaos Great Saints fleeing in different directions. With a thought, a vast wave of space-time surged, and the six Chaos Great Saints were instantly suppressed in place.
They were like insects trapped in amber, unable to move.
"Finished."
Tianlu Great Saint's spirit sank to the bottom.
Although he had realized he would be suppressed when he couldn't tear open a passage to the outside, the actual moment of being suppressed left him feeling heavy-hearted.
As a Great Chaos Saint, he had roamed through the voids of countless universes, unafraid even when facing formidable Great Saints like Dual Source. Now, he had been so easily suppressed.
"I'm not dead."
Tianlu Great Saint carefully examined his surroundings. Although he was comprehensively suppressed, he could still perceive his basic surroundings.
"With the strength of a River Galaxy Great Saint, if he could suppress me, he could easily annihilate me. The fact that I'm not dead means he doesn't intend to kill me? Or that I still have a chance to negotiate?"
Tianlu Great Saint thought to himself. If there was a possibility, he naturally wouldn't want to abandon this physical body. Cultivating a new main combat body would require an immense amount of resources.
More importantly, it would take a lot of time.
Both resources and time would be a significant investment.
So, as long as there was a sliver of a chance, Tianlu Great Saint was unwilling to give up this physical body.
"Now I can deal with those three."
Having resolved the six ordinary Chaos Great Saints, Lin Yuan's gaze finally focused on the three Great Saints: Dual Source, Black Obsidian, and Savage.
It had to be said, these three Great Saints were indeed terrifying. Lin Yuan had to use the majority of his means to comprehensively suppress them at the first opportunity.
"Black Obsidian Great Saint."
Lin Yuan looked at Black Obsidian Great Saint, who was surrounded by an infinite darkness. The Black Obsidian Field around him was rapidly contracting under pressure.
"Rip Heaven."
Lin Yuan suddenly raised his right hand and grabbed toward Black Obsidian Great Saint.
In an instant, five traces filled with destructive energy flashed and landed on Black Obsidian Great Saint's Black Obsidian Field.
Immediately, the Black Obsidian Field began to collapse. After advancing to the second level of Infinite Void, Lin Yuan's foundation had significantly strengthened, and the power of 'Rip Heaven,' which depended on his foundation, had naturally increased.
Sssssss!
Black Obsidian Great Saint's physical body was directly pierced through, with the wounds continuously emitting destructive energy, eradicating all life force and healing power.
"What?"
Black Obsidian Great Saint's eyes widened as he felt his strength plummet due to that single grab.
"Another grab."
Lin Yuan continued to use the 'Rip Heaven' power.
Black Obsidian Great Saint was pierced through again, leading to his entire Black Obsidian Field collapsing, finally revealing his form.
Without the protection of his Obsidian Domain, the Obsidian Sage was like an unprotected piece of meat in front of Lin Yuan, immediately swept away and suppressed by the overwhelming power of space and time.
"Rampage Sage."
Lin Yuan turned his gaze to the other Chaos Sage.
This Chaos Sage, though not as troublesome as the Obsidian Sage, was still not easy to completely suppress. The Rampage Sage’s physical body was incredibly powerful, surpassing even the former Tulong Sage. While he had few tricks up his sleeve, his survival skills were extremely strong, as he was practically invincible.
However, under the continuous suppression of Lin Yuan’s external universe and the pure offensive divine skill 'Tear the Heavens,' the Rampage Sage only managed to hold on for a few dozen breaths before being swiftly suppressed, just like the Obsidian Sage.
"Dual-Origin Sage."
Lin Yuan looked at the last Sage.
Among the nine Chaos Sages, the Dual-Origin Sage was undoubtedly the most difficult to deal with, which was why Lin Yuan had left him for last.
"Galaxy Sage, I admit you are strong, but to suppress me like you did the Obsidian and the rest? Absolutely impossible."
The Dual-Origin Sage’s expression turned slightly mad, his body of green and gray suddenly boiling, unleashing a desperate attack. Instantly, he tore a narrow crack in the space-time barrier, leading to the outside world.
Buzz.
In an instant, the Dual-Origin Sage escaped through the tiny crack.
Lin Yuan watched quietly.
While his external universe was terrifying, the Dual-Origin Sage’s mastery of the primordial evolution force made him exceptionally skilled at tearing through space-time.
Tearing through to Lin Yuan’s location was difficult, but in a desperate bid, tearing through to the outside was still possible.
Whoosh.
The Dual-Origin Sage escaped to the outside, immediately darting toward the entrance, his voice spreading through space-time to Lin Yuan:
"Galaxy Sage, I admit defeat this time. I will leave this universe immediately and not come near for ten thousand cosmic eras. I swear."
"Hmm?" Lin Yuan, who had initially planned to pursue and kill, now suppressed the urge.
Though the Dual-Origin Sage could barely escape, Lin Yuan could still chase him down. This was likely why the Dual-Origin Sage immediately submitted and swore after escaping.
"Dark Heavens' Heart?"
Lin Yuan glanced behind him. The Dark Heavens’ Temple had already emerged. If he pursued the Dual-Origin Sage, other variables might appear.
Lin Yuan stood silently, his right hand flipping.
The Rampage Sage, Obsidian Sage, Tianlu Sage, and the other seven Chaos Sages appeared nearby.
At this moment, these eight Chaos Sages were thoroughly suppressed, with no power to resist.
"Galaxy Sage."
The Obsidian Sage steadied his nerves, speaking slightly respectfully to Lin Yuan: "I wonder what price you would demand to let me go."
Since Lin Yuan hadn’t immediately annihilated him, there must be other thoughts.
"What price do you plan to offer?" Lin Yuan looked at the several Chaos Sages, speaking with interest.
For Lin Yuan, the most beneficial approach would be to exchange these Chaos Sages’ main combat bodies for more resources and treasures.
Directly killing them? He would only harvest their physical essence. But if he negotiated, the conditions could be set higher.
Besides, even if he killed these Chaos sages, they had means to revive. Therefore, using them as collateral for an exchange was what Lin Yuan intended.
"Ten million Primordial Stones."
The Obsidian Sage thought for a moment, tentatively offering.
"One billion Primordial Stones." Lin Yuan shook his head, looking at the Rampage Sage, "You too, if you want me to let you go, gather one billion Primordial Stones and send them over."
"And you." Lin Yuan looked at the Tianlu Sage and the others, "Each of you, five hundred million Primordial Stones."
"Five hundred million Primordial Stones?" The Tianlu Sage’s heart trembled. For a Chaos Sage like him, five hundred million Primordial Stones was a massive sum.
"As for you two." Lin Yuan’s gaze fell on the Jiufeng Sage and the Shadow Demon Sage.
"Galaxy Sage." The Jiufeng Sage and the Shadow Demon Sage immediately perked up.
At this point, the Jiufeng Sage and the Shadow Demon Sage were prepared to be slaughtered. Unlike the veteran Chaos Sages who had two or three main combat bodies, they, as newly ascended Chaos Sages, had only one.
Losing it would mean they couldn’t show their faces until fully recovered, with no means to protect themselves.
So as long as Lin Yuan’s demands weren’t too outrageous, the Jiufeng Sage and the Shadow Demon Sage were ready to agree first.
"I’ve heard of your grudges. After achieving the perfected Chaos Realm, you’ve been constantly battling." Lin Yuan looked down at the Jiufeng and the Shadow Demon, speaking.
"Galaxy Sage, the Shadow Demon—"
The Jiufeng Sage immediately explained.
"Hmm."
Lin Yuan nodded, suddenly asking, "Have you ever considered the impact of your battles on the beings in prematurely destroyed universes?"
"Beings within universes?"
The Jiufeng and the Shadow Demon were taken aback, not expecting Lin Yuan to ask such a question.
"Those ants. They die, so what? What does it matter?" The Shadow Demon Sage said.
The Jiufeng Sage remained silent but clearly agreed with the Shadow Demon Sage’s view.
"True."
Lin Yuan nodded, saying no more.
After a moment.
The Shadow Demon Sage tentatively asked, "Galaxy Sage, what price do we need to pay—"
Before he could finish, Lin Yuan glanced at him, "Chatterbox."
In the next moment, the Shadow Demon Sage and the Jiufeng Sage’s physical bodies and souls began to rapidly disintegrate.
In just a few breaths, the two Chaos Sages were completely obliterated.
"Galaxy Sage... This is..." The Tianlu Sage and the other Chaos Sages, witnessing this, trembled again.
"It’s nothing." Lin Yuan shook his head.
"These ants, they die, so what? What does it matter?"
