Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

An alarming anomaly occurred within the Swiftwind Clan!

Jun Wuxie, having learned of the situation through his Primal Avatar, rushed to the Swiftwind Clan's territory with utmost speed.

The Swiftwind Clan's territory was situated within a vast mountain valley, its interior spacious, spanning hundreds of miles, with various architectural complexes scattered artfully across the plains and hills.

Above this great mountain valley, baleful aura soared into the sky, the air thick with evil and violent energy surging from the valley.

A series of low, ferocious roars echoed incessantly within the valley.

Jun Wuxie arrived just in time to witness this scene.

He entered the valley from the sky, surveying the situation below.

Deep within the Swiftwind Clan's territory, an area exuded an eerie and sinister aura, with visible gray-black cursed substances materializing into countless strands, ceaselessly infiltrating the bodies of the Swiftwind Clan members, while dark energy overflowed.

The Swiftwind people were absorbing the dark energy with ferocious expressions, their bodies covered in crimson fur, pupils blood-red, mouths revealing fangs, and nails black, sharp, and elongated.

They were unlike the completely berserk crimson-furred fiends he had encountered before.

The Swiftwind Clan, from top to bottom, had transformed into crimson-furred abominations, but they had not descended into a state of chaos, absorbing the dark energy in a very orderly manner to enhance their strength.

Whether ordinary Swiftwind clansmen or high-ranking members like the Swiftwind Clan's ancient ancestors, all had become fiends.

Jun Wuxie's gaze swept over the Swiftwind Clan members, finally settling on the source of the dark energy deep within the Swiftwind Clan's territory.

This dark aura felt even more terrifying to him than the dark powerhouses he had slain some time ago.

As he gazed into the darkness, he could clearly sense the darkness gazing back at him.

It was an unusually cold sensation that caused an involuntary shiver to run down his spine.

They stared at each other in this way, neither yielding.

Jun Wuxie was in the light, while the dark powerhouse was hidden in the shadows, unable to see his eyes, but he could sense that he was being watched.

After staring for a long time, Jun Wuxie did not see the dark powerhouse take any action; it remained dormant, continuously releasing dark energy.

"It seems you are trapped here and unable to come out."

Having figured out the situation, Jun Wuxie finally spoke his first words.

"Submit to the great darkness, choose the right path, and your future will be filled with glory and splendor! If you foolishly attempt to resist the great darkness, you will be forever cast into the abyss!"

The voice from within responded, its tone forceful and commanding, as if it were a supreme ruler, demanding Jun Wuxie's submission.

"I don't know what submission means. Why don't you come out and submit to me so I can learn a thing or two?"

Jun Wuxie placed his left hand behind his back, his right hand hanging naturally at his side, runes appearing beneath his feet as he walked towards the depths of the Swiftwind Clan.

"Insolence!"

The dark powerhouse issued a deep roar.

Roar!

Instantly, the fiendishly transformed powerhouses within the Swiftwind Clan turned abruptly, blood-red eyes flashing with fierce light, their violent aura soaring to the heavens as they roared and charged forward.

Jun Wuxie remained expressionless, facing the onslaught of these crimson-furred fiends from the Swiftwind Clan, not even bothering to spare them a second glance.

With each step he took in the air, rune after rune materialized, imprinting themselves in the sky, blossoming into arrays of runes that rapidly evolved into killing formations.

Each step he took was the evolution of a killing array.

Runic dao of slaughter weaved through the air, coalescing into various forms of weapons, sweeping away all resistance with irresistible force, reaping the lives of the fiendishly transformed Swiftwind Clan powerhouses, causing them to fall in droves.

The other charging crimson-furred fiends met the same fate, constantly exploding into pieces under Jun Wuxie's footsteps, turning the path he walked into a road of blood and carnage, with fragmented corpses strewn across the ground, a horrifying sight.

When Jun Wuxie arrived deep within the Swiftwind Clan's territory, very close to the area shrouded in dark energy, he stopped.

With his final step, all the rune arrays instantly erupted with dazzling light, converging and merging to form a massive rune formation that spread in all directions, instantly covering all of the Swiftwind Clan's territory except for the area where the darkness lay dormant.

The rune formation crushed down, and all ten million of the Swiftwind Clan's fiendishly transformed members were annihilated in this slaughter, leaving behind only blood and mud.

"Boy, this seat advises you to retreat quickly!"

The dark powerhouse did not seem to care much about the Swiftwind Clan's extermination, instead attempting to use reverse psychology on Jun Wuxie.

"Don't insult my intellectual floor with your intellectual ceiling."

Jun Wuxie gave a sharp response, not moving forward.

The dark powerhouse was dormant within a large tomb in front of him.

He did not know the situation there and would naturally not approach rashly.

It was known that the dark powerhouse was stronger than the ones he had killed some time ago. Facing such a powerhouse, unless he used the Godslaying Sword or asked Aunt You to take action, it would be impossible to deal with.

In this situation, approaching rashly would be a very unwise move.

This dark powerhouse had been trying to provoke him from the beginning, with the aim of getting him to come to the depths, within a certain range.

How could he fall for that? Such tricks were too inferior in his eyes, completely out of his league.

"Boy, you are quite arrogant, your courage is quite fat!"

The dark powerhouse's cold voice contained a very obvious forced restraint of anger.

Clearly, in this confrontation, he had been defeated by Jun Wuxie's repeated sharp words.

He had lost in words, but was helpless, which made him a little frustrated.

"Perhaps, compared to you, who only dares to cower in dark corners like a rat, my courage is indeed greater."

Jun Wuxie remained calm and composed, but each response was very sharp.

The dark powerhouse fell silent, without a sound, and after a long while said: "You want to anger this seat, such tricks are very inferior. Boy, you are very arrogant now, but when this seat comes out, this seat will see the expression of panic, fear, and despair on your face."

"I'm afraid that by the time you come out, things will have changed, and what awaits you is not hope, but despair."

As Jun Wuxie spoke, he slowly raised his right hand, which had been hanging at his side, and opened his palm, revealing a sacred furnace engraved with profound runes in his hand.

It was the Eternal Sacred Furnace!

The sacred furnace flew into the sky and quickly grew larger, then turned upside down, covering the entire area.

"Boy, do you think you can stop this seat from coming out by doing this? You are daydreaming!"

The dark powerhouse's voice was full of anger, extremely cold.

Boom!

The only response he received was the Eternal Sacred Furnace falling upside down, instantly enveloping the place where he was dormant.

"Eternal Sacred Furnace, thank you for your hard work for the next period of time."

Jun Wuxie stroked the body of the furnace, and the sacred furnace emitted a slight tremor in response.

"I have to hurry and leave this small world as soon as possible."

There was actually such a dark powerhouse in the depths of the Swiftwind Clan.

Judging from the situation, this dark powerhouse should have also suffered heavy damage back then and had been sleeping for a long time, and should have only woken up a few years ago.

Jun Wuxie activated his Devouring Power, cleaning up all the dark energy and cursed substances wandering within the Swiftwind Clan's territory, leaving the Eternal Sacred Furnace behind, and then turned and left.

After leaving the Swiftwind Clan, Jun Wuxie went directly to the Fire Domain and had the Primal Avatar bring the news back to the village.

Currently, the only goal left was to explore the mysteries of the Fire Domain.

Once this was completed, he would be able to lead the people of all clans out of this abyss small world.

After leaving, it would not matter if the dark powerhouse came out, because there would be no more living beings in this world.

The top of the abyss had Yin-Yang Fire, so it would probably not be easy for the dark powerhouse to come out, otherwise he would not have been trapped here back then.

The dark powerhouse who could only stay here was destined to be refined into ashes by this Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams Furnace in the future.

The Fire Domain was located in the central area of the abyss small world, but not exactly in the middle.

According to Jun Wuxie's deduction of the terrain of this small world using runic dao, the circle surrounded by the four major forces was actually the very center of the small world, divided in the middle by a curve, like a Taiji circle.

Within this area, there were two relatively special points, one was the Fire Domain, and the other was the Stone Pagoda of Ancestral Refining Village.

The positions of the Fire Domain and the Stone Pagoda, in the overall environmental map, were exactly the Yin and Yang fish eyes.

The Stone Pagoda had disappeared, but the Yin fish eye had not been damaged as a result, it had only been hidden.

Obviously, the understanding and speculation of the Fire Domain by the powerhouses of the various clans in this world was not completely correct, their cognition had great one-sidedness and limitations.

Having obtained the inheritance in the Stone Pagoda, understood the secrets of the Stone Pagoda, and also seen the Eight Phases Qiankun Immortal Slaughtering Formation at the end, as well as various information summaries, Jun Wuxie realized that the formation of this special small world, as well as the Taiji Eight Trigrams land outside, may have been evolved from the Stone Pagoda.

He had accepted the Stone Pagoda's inheritance, so his runic dao was not suppressed by order.

The dark powerhouse was not suppressed, probably because the order here was not actually in a particularly strong state, it had always been semi-dormant.

The Fire Domain, the Yang fish eye of the Yin-Yang Fish, had a not small area.

The entire Fire Domain was circular, with layers of different fires surrounding it.

Jun Wuxie stood before the Fire Domain, and even from a certain distance, he could feel waves of heat coming towards him.

The flames here made the air around the Fire Domain extremely dry and the temperature very high.

The flames in the first layer of the Fire Domain were exactly the Earth Core Flames that he had seen most people in Ancestral Refining Village using to refine weapons.

However, this Earth Core Flame was not pure, which led to its low quality, but even so, the temperature was still very terrifying.

The Taiji land in the center of the Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams Furnace, the Yang fish eye, what kind of things could it derive, or was there only different fire and nothing else.

What exactly was the truth, he would know once he explored it.

He did not stay in front of the Fire Domain for too long, only for a short while, before he stepped into the Fire Domain.

Even without using any means to resist the burning flames, he remained as leisurely as strolling through a garden.

However, he didn't ignore the Earth-core Flames. Instead, he activated the Devouring Power of his Natal Star, extracting the essence from these flames, stripping away the Law fragments of the Earth-core Flames, and storing them.

This process only took a little over half an hour.

Jun Wuxie essentially slowed his pace, absorbing and stripping as he walked. By the time he walked out of the first layer of the Earth-core Flame zone, he had stored a large amount of the Law fragments of the Earth-core Flames.

The second layer of the Fire Domain contained flames that were gray with hints of black—a very strange type of flame.

Being in such flames, one couldn't feel any burning sensation. Instead, there was a bone-chilling coldness, but the damage these flames inflicted on the body was indeed burning damage.

"This is Yin Flame…"

Jun Wuxie searched his mind and found the answer.

The "Primordial Forging True Understanding" recorded various strange flames in the world.

Yin-attribute flames were very rare and precious. They were scarce even among strange flames.

Although the quality of the Yin Flame in the second layer of the Fire Domain wasn't high, what was valuable was that Jun Wuxie had never come into contact with this type of flame before, so his body hadn't fused with the origin of this Yin-attribute strange flame.

This time, he paid a little more attention. He stopped in the center of the Yin Flame zone, sat cross-legged in the flames, activated the Devouring Power, absorbed a large amount of the flames into his body, extracted the origin and laws within, and fused them into his flesh.

In this way, his physical body benefited somewhat.

This was energy and origin he had never encountered before.

"Good stuff! I wonder what kind of surprises the next strange flame will bring me…"

Jun Wuxie's heart was full of anticipation. After fusing with this Yin Flame, the strength of his physical body had been slightly improved, and his origin had been slightly strengthened, resulting in a slight increase in his talent growth intensity.

His path of cultivation was to constantly improve his origin, evolve his bloodline, transform his physical body, and devouring and fusion were his specialties.
