Chapter 1 The Lair

Inside the lair, the space twisted into a tunnel. Jiang Xuan, dressed in a white robe, flew through the spatial passage he had created, piercing through the silver-white vortex.

"Shasha sha~~~"

The enormous silver-white vortex possessed a destructive power that even the Xis Clan Honored Lords could barely withstand. However, the spatial passage formed by Jiang Xuan was very stable, resisting all impacts.

In terms of the Dao of Space-Time alone, no one in the entire Chaos Universe was stronger than him. Even the Ultimate Supreme of the Xis Clan was inferior to him in this Dao.

After all, the other party was the Ultimate Supreme of the Dao of Ultimate Light, and naturally far surpassed Jiang Xuan in the Dao of Light. But in terms of the Dao of Space-Time, the other party was only at the Eternal Ultimate level, while Jiang Xuan had integrated many Daos into the Eternal Ultimate Dao of Space-Time, naturally surpassing the other.

"Almost there."

As he traversed the silver-white vortex, the enormous lair-celestial body gradually approached. Its surface was covered with countless holes, dark and bottomless. Once any power was swallowed, it could no longer be sensed, nor could it ever return to the Chaos Universe.

"Worthy of the Ultimate Supreme's methods."

Jiang Xuan sighed. He knew this lair was crafted by Iyer, and even a powerhouse of that level had spent endless effort to forge it.

Especially the core of this Destruction Lair, which was the Source of Destruction nurtured by endless space, could not be refined without reaching the Ultimate Supreme level.

Time flew by, and after an unknown duration, Jiang Xuan finally landed on the cold surface of the lair-celestial body. At a glance, it was a giant weapon-celestial body comparable to a region. Only by penetrating time and space and traversing endless void could everything be seen clearly.

"Is it in that direction?"

Jiang Xuan had already obtained the Supreme Insignia, which allowed him to contact the Dharma Body of Honored Supreme Hong Ran, thus knowing their location. Jiang Xuan flew along the surface of the celestial body, instantly covering hundreds of millions of miles.

The surface of the lair-celestial body was a mixture of dark black and silver-white, mainly composed of dark black abysses. Only some areas on the surface were condensed with silver-white power. These abysses ranged in size from trillions of miles in diameter to merely a hundred miles.

"It's completely an enhanced version of the Yin-Yang Life-Death Wheel." Jiang Xuan thought. The Yan Dragon Region had previously been threatened by the Yin-Yang Life-Death Wheel, which similarly continuously devoured matter and grew stronger.

However, the Yin-Yang Life-Death Wheel ultimately belonged to the natural power of the Chaos Universe. Even if it devoured more, it would not affect the origin of the Chaos Universe. But this was different. If it devoured too much, the Chaos Universe might directly suffer severe damage.

Moreover, this lair initially was the size of a region. Allowing it to continue growing, it was hard to imagine how it could be controlled.

"I should first rendezvous with Senior Hong Ran and the others."

Jiang Xuan shook his head. Those dark abysses were swallowing all power. Regardless of whether it was Divine Sense probing or projection of the Heart World, everything would be devoured. He had originally wanted to investigate something from the surface, but now he had gained nothing. He could only enter one of them to find out.

Standing at the edge of the abyss, Jiang Xuan looked inside. The violent swallowing force roared constantly, devouring everything. After a brief examination, Jiang Xuan no longer hesitated, selected one of the abysses, and flew directly into it, proceeding along the dark abyss.

He isolated himself from the surroundings with the Dao Rhythm of Space-Time. On both sides of the abyss, there were spherical time-spaces suspended, each ranging in size from hundreds of millions of miles to only tens of thousands of miles.

These time-spaces… were like balloons, suspended and attracting each other, forming vast power.

It was very similar to the Guarding Dao Tower, but the time-spaces here were densely packed, endless, carrying the great power of destruction and creation.

Jiang Xuan formed a sword with his fingers, and a ethereal and invisible sword light struck a time-space in the distance. A time-space with a range of tens of millions of miles was instantly destroyed, but there was nothing inside the shattered time-space.

"Gu~" However, in the next moment, a time-space suddenly emerged, similar to the one Jiang Xuan had destroyed, still about tens of millions of miles in size.

"Sure enough, destroying a time-space will cause a new one to be born inside this abyss, endlessly. Even a Supreme cannot destroy it," Jiang Xuan thought. This was just one of the abysses, and this abyss was only hundreds of millions of miles in diameter.

However, there were countless abyss entrances outside with trillions of miles in diameter, and even more smaller ones. It was conceivable how much amazing power this Destruction Lair had gathered.

Moreover, Jiang Xuan could clearly sense that after a time-space was destroyed, all the power was still absorbed by the Destruction Lair, and then a new time-space was born. One destruction, one birth, without losing a single trace of power.

The only way was to find the Source of Destruction and destroy it. Otherwise, even if several Supremes joined forces, they could not destroy this Destruction Lair.

However, this Destruction Lair was extremely huge, and it was not easy to find the Source of Destruction. Moreover, this Destruction Lair was constantly devouring external power, gradually weakening the Chaos Universe.

"I need to rendezvous with Honored Supreme Hong Ran and the others as soon as possible." Jiang Xuan thought. His Ultimate Dao of Space-Time had already integrated into the Dao of Array, so he could clearly sense that these countless time-spaces were actually a very mysterious grand array!

Since it was a grand array, there would naturally be a core. The core was where the Source of Destruction was located. In just a moment, Jiang Xuan discovered some traces, but now his goal was to rendezvous with Honored Supreme Hong Ran and the others. As for the location of the Source of Destruction, he was not in a hurry to go there now.

……

Inside the Destruction Lair, two figures were constantly traversing space-time, with the power of Karma sweeping, erasing their traces. But even so, they could still vaguely sense that creatures were heading towards their location.

"This Xis Clan leader is truly terrifying. Even after erasing the Karma, he can still find traces."

Honored Supreme Hong Ran was constantly moving between time and space. The creature behind him was indeed amazing, impossible to get rid of. Even if Honored Supreme Hong Ran personally erased the Karma, the other party could still find them time and time again.

"This is the Ultimate Supreme. Even when suppressed by the Chaos Universe, he is still unmatched." Honored Supreme Bo Lin's expression was equally grim. Although they were Dharma Bodies, they also possessed Supreme-level combat power. However, when they encountered Iyer before, they were completely suppressed.

In the end, Honored Supreme E Kong's Dharma Body decisively stayed behind to hold them off, which allowed them to escape temporarily.

But the creature behind them was impossible to get rid of, so they dared not stop, and could only keep moving, waiting for Jiang Xuan to arrive.

"I wonder if Taixuan's plan will succeed." Honored Supreme Bo Lin transmitted his voice again. They naturally knew Jiang Xuan's plan, and it was precisely for this reason that they chose to constantly shift through space-time, to delay time.

Honored Supreme Hong Ran was silent, and replied after a moment: "The Xis Clan leader is stronger than us, but it is limited. Otherwise, we would have already been defeated during the ancient war."

Honored Supreme Bo Lin nodded. Iyer was indeed an opponent that no single Supreme could face alone, but he was not completely crushing the Supremes. Otherwise, they would not have had a chance to escape.

Of course, they also understood that this was the suppression of the origin of the Chaos Universe. Otherwise, Iyer could obliterate a Supreme with a single thought.

"Huala~"

Just as they continued to escape, a huge fiery-red tail suddenly tore through space-time and swept towards them in an instant.

"Hmm?" Honored Supreme Hong Ran's expression changed. He struck out with his hand, forcibly crushing it.

"Bang!!!" With a loud bang, Honored Supreme Hong Ran felt his body constantly trembling, causing him to stagger back several steps, and a look of shock appeared on his face.

"Roar~"

But then, he saw a towering figure, accompanied by a deep voice, appearing in front of them.

This was a figure like a high mountain. It stood upright, similar to a human form. Its entire surface was covered with red scales, its head was triangular, its eyes were cold and violent, and its whole body was covered with a terrifying flame.

"A Supreme-level strange lifeform?!" Honored Supreme Hong Ran paused. Outside the Chaos Universe, there was endless void space, the Nine Great Chaos Universes, and many small Chaos Universes.

And strange lifeforms were creatures that could survive in endless space. They fed on small Chaos Universes in endless space. The top strange lifeforms could even be comparable to Supremes.

And this strange lifeform in front of them was at the Supreme level, a overlord-level lifeform in endless space. Even inside the Nine Great Chaos Universes, they could still unleash Supreme-level power!

Of course, strange lifeforms did not understand the Dao Laws. Although their bodies were powerful, their understanding of the Dao was extremely superficial. Under normal circumstances, they were not a match for Supremes.

But it was also extremely difficult for Supremes to kill strange lifeforms. These were lifeforms that could rival Supremes with just their bodies. Their physical bodies were extremely terrifying. Even Honored Supreme Hong Ran and the others had joined forces to hunt down two Supreme-level strange lifeforms in the past.

And now, a Supreme-level strange lifeform was standing in front of them.

"You won't escape."

The towering Supreme lifeform shouted, blocking Honored Supreme Hong Ran and the others, constantly approaching. With each step, countless time-spaces were being destroyed.

At the same time, in the distant void behind them, an aura suddenly erupted. It was a creature shrouded in light, traversing endless void, stepping on time and space. Its speed was so fast that it crossed hundreds of millions of time-spaces in one step.

"Not good!"

"Go!"

Honored Supreme Hong Ran and Honored Supreme Bo Lin erupted at the same time, not intending to entangle with the Supreme lifeform. At this time, their most important task was to rendezvous with Jiang Xuan. Jiang Xuan had mastered the Ultimate Dao of Space-Time. With his methods, even Iyer could not catch up without being able to use the "Dao."

"You can't escape!"

A magnificent voice came, and then a man stepped through time and space. His face wore a smile, his eyes seemed to contain all living beings, making people involuntarily submit.

When Honored Supreme Hong Ran and Honored Supreme Bo Lin heard that voice, their Dao hearts trembled. A god of light seemed to want to rush into their hearts.

"Hold on! Taixuan is not far from here!"

Honored Supreme Hong Ran shouted. They were actually just Dharma Bodies. If it were in a normal state, it would not matter even if they died in battle. It would just take more time to refine and nurture them.

But now that the war had broken out, and at this time Jiang Xuan was planning to scheme against Iyer, they had to hold on until Jiang Xuan arrived, divert Iyer's attention, and thus buy more time for the war outside.

"Attack!"

Honored Supreme Bo Lin's expression was cold. He manifested six arms, each hand forming a claw, and fiercely attacked the Supreme lifeform, crushing and distorting the entire time-space. The power was terrifying and unpredictable, seemingly ordinary, but vaguely containing endless changes.

He had become a Supreme from the origin of the Myriad Dao Claws, and at this time he was also using his true ultimate means to kill the Supreme lifeform.

"Bang."

The Supreme lifeform also quickly attacked, and divine flames emerged from its body, each strand capable of burning a Chaos World. It collided with Honored Supreme Bo Lin's palm, crushing layers of time and space.

Honored Supreme Hong Ran also erupted, with Karma intertwining, and the Supreme-level Heart World reflecting, transforming into a Karma Blade, slashing towards Iyer in the distance.

Among the several Supremes, he was the oldest and most powerful, and he had constructed a complete Heart World with Karma, with endless Dao might.

"A small trick."

The magnificent voice came, and Iyer had a gentle smile on his face, and pushed out with one hand, and boundless light erupted in his palm.

"Tear."

In an instant, that palm tore the blade light, and the field woven by Karma was also pierced through in an instant. A palm emitting a crystal clear light directly attacked Honored Supreme Hong Ran.

"Retreat!"

Honored Supreme Hong Ran was shocked. Even though it was not the first time they had fought, he still felt shocked. Although he was a Dharma Body, he still possessed 70-80% of his true combat power, but he could not shake this person in the slightest. Even the art of Karma was instantly broken.

Chi!

Even though Honored Supreme Hong Ran had quickly retreated, the edge of that great hand still pierced his chest, and a sharp penetrating force drilled into his body, causing him to involuntarily spit out a mouthful of blood.

With just one encounter, he had already been injured. Even if his true body was here, the situation would not be much better. The strength of the Ultimate Supreme was indeed not something that a single Supreme could handle.

Of course, he also had some discoveries. Although this Iyer was very strong, he was not absolutely crushing, but was limited in strength. If several Supremes joined forces, it would not be impossible to fight him.

"Taixuan's plan may succeed." Honored Supreme Hong Ran, with his golden robe stained with blood, used the origin of the Myriad Dao Karma to construct a barrier, and retreated rapidly, wanting to delay Iyer.

"You can't escape!" Iyer smiled faintly, but then paused and looked towards a void, vaguely sensing something.

In the next moment, a figure appeared. It was an extremely special feeling. That figure seemed to not exist in this time-space, but was walking in another dimension.

"The Dao of Space-Time?" Iyer thought, but immediately overturned it: "It is the Ultimate Dao of Space-Time!"

"Taixuan!"

As the Space-Time Domain fell, the space-time around Honored Supreme Hong Ran and Honored Supreme Bo Lin was isolated, constructing a Chaos Origin barrier, independent of the Destruction Lair's space-time.

"Taixuan?" Iyer had a compassionate expression on his face, with light added to his body, as if to save all living beings. He looked at Jiang Xuan, his smile still undiminished, and slowly opened his mouth: "Are you the Ultimate Emperor Lord?"

"That's right."

Jiang Xuan isolated the void with the Ultimate Dao of Space-Time, but he knew that this method could stop the Supreme lifeform, but not Iyer.

Even if the other party could not use the power of the Dao, his position was still that of an Ultimate Supreme, mastering all the Eternal Ultimate Daos. His understanding of space-time might not be as good as Jiang Xuan's, but with his perception and powerful strength, it was not difficult to break through this space-time barrier.

"Why did you appear here? They are just Dharma Bodies, is it worth you taking such a risk?" Iyer smiled faintly. He was indeed very wary of Jiang Xuan. The birth of the Ultimate Emperor Lord meant that there would be more and more creatures with the Ultimate Dao in the future.

The more it was delayed, the greater the probability of the emergence of an Ultimate Supreme. That was why he chose to start the war immediately.

Moreover, after learning that Jiang Xuan had achieved the Ultimate Emperor Lord with space-time, he also knew that it would be difficult to kill Jiang Xuan. Therefore, he did not attack him immediately, but released the Destruction Lair to attract other Supremes here, preparing to weaken the strength of the cultivator civilization in advance.

Although only three Dharma Bodies had come this time, it was still a good harvest. After all, Supreme Dharma Bodies were difficult to refine and required a long period of time to nurture, unlike Jiang Xuan's Emperor Lord Dharma Bodies.

However, he did not believe that three Supreme Dharma Bodies were worth an Ultimate Emperor Lord personally coming to save. If it was the Supreme's true body, it would be more likely.

"Naturally, I am here to kill you." Jiang Xuan said directly. That was indeed his purpose, but the process was slightly different.

"Kill me?" Iyer was stunned, and then laughed: "Hahaha...you want to kill me? Even if I can't use the power of the Dao, I am not comparable to you. Do you really think that the Xis Clan lost in the ancient war?"
