"This!!!"
Xuanwu Jue saw that his full-power strike couldn't even break Ye Ling's defense, and his soul began to tremble, fear constantly growing in his heart.
Ye Ling looked at the terrified Xuanwu Jue and chuckled, "What, scared already?"
Hearing Ye Ling's words, Xuanwu Jue's expression became even more twisted. He bared his teeth and said, "Ye Ling, you're going too far!"
Xuanwu Jue roared loudly, summoning a black saber wreathed in chaotic Qi source with both hands, and fiercely slashed at Ye Ling!
The surrounding space was like paper, easily cleaved by the black saber. A terrifying spatial storm erupted from it, sweeping outwards!
Ye Ling watched the incoming black saber, still not dodging, standing in place as it came!
*Crack!!!*
The black saber of Xuanwu Jue, the moment it reached Ye Ling's neck, snapped into two pieces. Not even a white mark was left on Ye Ling's neck!
The surviving disciples of the Xuanwu Palace were all stunned, their limbs trembling uncontrollably.
"That... that's the Palace Master's supreme divine weapon, the Tai Xu Saber! It's said to be forged from Nine Nether Divine Gold and can cleave through anything in the world. How did it break so easily?"
"Look at Ye Ling's neck! The Palace Master's saber strike didn't even leave a white mark!"
"Heavens! How can this be? How strong is Ye Ling?"
For a moment, the disciples of Xuanwu Palace wailed in terror, their faces filled with despair.
They never imagined that the gap between their Palace Master and Ye Ling would be so vast!
Not only the disciples of Xuanwu Palace, but also the other extraterrestrial forces watching were shocked, all of them dumbfounded and their hearts trembling.
They had previously thought that no matter how strong Ye Ling was, he would be at most comparable to Xuanwu Jue.
Ye Ling and Xuanwu Jue's battle would likely result in mutual destruction, and they could then take advantage of the situation.
But now, it seemed Ye Ling's strength was infinitely close to that of a Creation God, existing on a completely different level from them!
No one among the observing extraterrestrial cultivators dared to seize the opportunity.
Xuanwu Jue was also completely terrified now, his hand gripping the saber hilt trembling, beginning to doubt his own existence.
Others might not know, but he himself was very clear!
His Tai Xu Saber, tempered over countless ages, was already invincible!
He had once used the Tai Xu Saber to kill a Chaos Dominator who specialized in defense. The power of his Tai Xu Saber even made him, its master, feel fear!
Yet, now, after his full-power strike, not only did he fail to break Ye Ling's defense, but his Tai Xu Saber had shattered?
At this moment, Xuanwu Jue clearly recognized the gap between himself and Ye Ling.
His pupils widened in shock, and he looked at Ye Ling with a terrified expression, asking in a trembling voice, "You... you... are you already a Creation God?" Da Feng Novel Network
Ye Ling chuckled, "Still a bit of a gap from a Creation God, but... almost there. By the way, you have one last move left. When are you going to make it?"
"You... you..."
Xuanwu Jue's breathing became rapid. After hearing Ye Ling's answer, how could he dare to continue attacking Ye Ling?
Xuanwu Jue no longer dared to think further, immediately discarding the broken Tai Xu Saber and fleeing into the deep space without looking back!
In an instant, Xuanwu Jue had fled tens of millions of miles away!
"Oh dear... already running away?" Ye Ling locked onto the fleeing figure of Xuanwu Jue, grabbed the broken Tai Xu Saber, and weighed it in his hand.
Then, Ye Ling aimed in the direction Xuanwu Jue was fleeing and hurled the Tai Xu Saber!
*Swish!*
The Tai Xu Saber tore through space, carrying a golden light, and directly pierced Xuanwu Jue, who was tens of millions of miles away!
A large amount of golden spiritual energy poured into Xuanwu Jue's body, and then golden runes appeared all over his body, his aura beginning to plummet wildly.
"Ahhhhhh!"
Xuanwu Jue screamed, his mournful cry echoing in the deep space.
If someone were near Xuanwu Jue at this moment, they would clearly see that within Xuanwu Jue's body, hidden beneath the golden light, the Devouring Domain was consuming his cultivation.
Soon, a Chaos Heart and a Great Dao Origin condensed in Ye Ling's hand.
"Done!"
Ye Ling crushed the Chaos Heart and the Great Dao Origin, absorbing all the power within.
And Xuanwu Jue, tens of millions of miles away, had completely turned into a dried corpse, floating alone in the deep space.
Xuanwu Jue had thus perished!
The starry sky beyond the cosmic barrier fell into silence.
All the cultivators who had been watching the battle had their minds gone blank.
They had all considered the possibility of Xuanwu Jue's defeat, but no one had expected the outcome to be like this!
The strength displayed by Ye Ling shocked the nerves of everyone present!
After dealing with Xuanwu Jue, Ye Ling quickly put him out of his mind and looked towards Quan Su, who was hiding far away, transmitting a message, "Why are you here?"
Quan Su, who was still in shock from Xuanwu Jue's death, suddenly jolted upon hearing Ye Ling's telepathic message. He quickly straightened his posture and said to Ye Ling, "R-reporting to Your Majesty, I... I came to deliver a message?"
"Deliver a message?"
"Y-yes... The Palace Master of the Underworld Palace, She Ji, and the Grand Elder, Tian Can, were planning to make a move on Your Majesty after Your Majesty and Xuanwu Jue were both weakened."
Quan Su said with a serious expression, and then added, "However, from the current situation, She Ji and Tian Can probably wouldn't dare to make a move on Your Majesty anymore."
Speaking of this, Quan Su almost burst into tears.
He had risked his life to escape from the Underworld Palace to inform Ye Ling, with the goal of gaining merit on Ye Ling's side, so that he would have a chance to live in the inner universe.
But from the current situation, he had gained no merit, and instead had completely offended the Underworld Palace. If Ye Ling didn't want to take him in, he would have to become a fugitive in the outer regions, forever evading pursuit from the Underworld Palace.
Hearing Quan Su's report, Ye Ling couldn't help but laugh, saying, "It seems the Underworld Palace is also a hidden threat..."
Hearing Ye Ling's words, Quan Su's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "Your Majesty, are you planning to deal with the Underworld Palace?"
For Quan Su, he had thoroughly offended the Underworld Palace. If Ye Ling could destroy the Underworld Palace, he would become a free man, at least not having to worry about being hunted by the Underworld Palace.
However, Ye Ling denied it, "No... The Xuanwu Palace has already been destroyed. The Underworld Palace is currently one of the few influential forces in the outer regions. Letting it live to promote our inner universe is better than letting it die."
Ye Ling had originally planned to make the Underworld Palace a defensive line for the inner universe. If invaders wanted to invade the inner universe in the future, they would have to pass through the Underworld Palace first.
Destroying the Underworld Palace now would not be a good thing for Ye Ling.
After all, the entire river of time had been compressed into a large water ball, and billions of spacetime had merged, making the universe incredibly vast and containing endless dangers... Ye Ling couldn't always guard the inner universe, waiting for crises to arrive.
Therefore, cultivating a few extraterrestrial forces for the inner universe was very important.
Quan Su, however, couldn't think that far. Upon hearing that Ye Ling was prepared to spare the Underworld Palace, he despaired and knelt down, his heart turning to ash.
It's over...
It's completely finished!
However, Ye Ling then asked Quan Su, "Hey, I remember your name is Quan Su, right? Are you interested in becoming the Palace Master of the Underworld Palace?"
Quan Su, who had been in despair, suddenly froze and looked at Ye Ling with disbelief, "Huh?"
