Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

“Lord, where have you been for the past ten years?

Your subordinate asked Lady Wan, but she wouldn't say where you went, only that you would definitely return.

We waited and waited, and ten years passed.

Although ten years might seem short to us cultivators, the changes that have occurred in our Secret Realm World during these ten years are not small.

We were worried that if you didn't return, Lord, it might be very difficult to catch up with the progress we've fallen behind…”

“I went to another world that has a different flow of time. I only realized ten years had passed when I returned.

Now, have all the original inhabitants of the city cultivated flawless bodies?”

Hearing this, the Deputy City Lord looked excited. “Thanks to the Lord's blessing, that Life Wheel Flesh Zhī is truly amazing.

Now, in our entire Jun Yue City, all the people have completely escaped the constraints of the Secret Realm, and their bodies are flawless!”

“Very good, then I am relieved.

Give me the Life Wheel Flesh Zhī. Now that you no longer need it, there are others in this Secret Realm who can use it.”

“Alright.”

The Deputy City Lord hurriedly took out the Life Wheel Flesh Zhī from his spatial ring.

An extremely rich aura of life immediately filled the entire study.

The flesh zhī, with its sparkling divine light, looked extraordinarily mystical.

The people throughout the Jun Yue City's jurisdiction cultivated flawless bodies, but only consumed a small amount of the Life Wheel Flesh Zhī's life force.

After all, the grade of this Life Wheel Flesh Zhī is extremely high.

“By the way, resources such as Essence Fruits can be generously distributed to the guards who protect Jun Yue Pavilion, as well as the stewards who manage the medicinal fields.

Now, the Essence Fruit production in my Jun Yue Pavilion's medicinal fields is not low.

In the future, select Essence Fruits of a suitable grade for their current realm from the harvested ones and give them to them as cultivation resources.

This time, I will stay in the Secret Realm for a considerable amount of time.

In the future, there will be higher-grade exotic soil and Essence Divine Tree seeds.”

“Good, good!

When that time comes, this subordinate will be able to break through to the Eleventh Order.

With the Lord taking action, we will surely continue the glory of the past!

Now, powerful figures from a hundred worlds are gathering in the City of a Hundred Worlds, and the rankings on the Monument of Glory are constantly being updated, which is truly astonishing.

If the Lord didn't return, there really wouldn't be anyone who could suppress them.

A few years ago, they even came to attack our Jun Yue City…”

“What did you say?”

Jun Wuxie's eyes twitched slightly, and he said in a deep voice, “What exactly happened?”

“Reporting to the Lord, a few years ago, someone obtained a force's punitive edict, and our Jun Yue City was targeted.

Those people united a shocking number of trainees to attack, trying to seize Jun Yue City and take it as their own.

Fortunately, many trainees came to our Jun Yue City to help, and the mother of your precious son, Lian Yue Qingxian, Mu, Linglong, and other strong people rushed over, and only then did we manage to defend the city.

Fortunately, once a force's punitive edict is triggered, the time for the punitive action is limited, only two days in total.

If the punitive target cannot be taken down within two days, the qualification for punitive action will be lost, and the Heavenly Dao Order will cease the war.

In the end, we defended for two days, paying a huge price in casualties.

Fortunately, the people of our Jun Yue City had already used the Destiny Flesh Zhī to cultivate flawless bodies, and could use Substitute Death Talismans.

Otherwise, our Jun Yue City's army would probably have lost more than half of its forces.

You, Lord, are the only trainee who owns an entire regional city, which makes people jealous.

In the future, if those people obtain another punitive edict, they might come to attack again.”

“Who were the people who attacked my Jun Yue City?”

“This subordinate is not clear on the specifics, but many of the forces on the Hundred Worlds Combat Power Ranking must have participated.

Anyway, at that time, we saw Wutian, who was ranked first, and Biyue and Xiuhua, who were ranked second and third.

The other geniuses on the list were not seen, but it is difficult to guarantee that other geniuses from their forces did not participate.”

“At that time, the City of a Hundred Worlds had not yet been opened.”

“Yes, at that time, the City of a Hundred Worlds was indeed not completely open to the Hundred Worlds, but they stepped into the territory of the City of a Hundred Worlds through some path, and came to our Jun Yue City through the regional main cities at all levels!

However, at that time, the Hundred Worlds Ranking had not yet been updated.

At that time, it is not known whether Wutian, Biyue, and Xiuhua could be ranked in the top three in combat power.

But they were indeed strong, especially with the exclusive divine artifacts in their hands, they actually made Lian Yue Qingxian and the mother of your precious son unable to do anything to them, unable to completely suppress them.

You must know that coming to a region like our Jun Yue City, the realm is subject to suppression, it is completely a battle of the same realm!”

“Wutian, Biyue, and Xiuhua, you coveted my Jun Yue City as soon as you arrived, and led the crowd to attack.

You guys are really inflated.

Deputy City Lord, manage the city well and develop it well.

Don't be stingy with resources, improve everyone's realm and enhance their strength.

In the future, I will bring better exotic soil and Essence Divine Tree seeds.”

“Lord, are you leaving?”

“Of course, I haven't returned for ten years, and now I have to seize the time to catch up with the Secret Realm's progress.

This time, after I finish dealing with matters in Hanzhou Ancient City, I will go to the Fourth-Level Region—the City of the World.”

“Lord, take this with you.”

The City Lord handed over an exclusive coin card, saying, “The funds inside are the total amount accumulated from the auction of all the exclusive divine artifacts sent by Lady Lian Yue Qingxian over the years, plus part of our city's income.

In case the Lord encounters the Ancestor of Strange Goods, and has enough exclusive coins on hand, he might be able to buy a lot of good things from him.”

“Alright.” Jun Wuxie put away the card and casually asked, “How much is in there?”

“Reporting to the Lord, there are more than nine hundred billion exclusive coins in total.”

“So much?”

Jun Wuxie was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, it didn't seem like a lot.

“Lord, after our Jun Yue City was upgraded, more and more trainees have come, and the daily profits of the major shops and industries, after deducting costs, are still quite considerable.

The money in this card is just a small portion of the surplus funds from many years of profits, plus the money from the exclusive divine artifacts auctioned by Lady Lian Yue Qingxian.”

Jun Wuxie nodded, got up, and prepared to leave.

The Deputy City Lord sent him all the way out of the City Lord's Mansion, to the post station in the city, and watched him disappear into the teleportation formation with his own eyes.

Jun Wuxie arrived in Hanzhou and went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.

The City Lord looked at him, his face full of surprise, his lips trembling, unable to speak for a long time.

This transcendent legend, the era promoter, disappeared for ten years, and now he has finally returned, making him feel like he is dreaming.

The City Lord was very excited, pulled him into the study, and talked a lot.

Finally, after he had said almost everything, Jun Wuxie talked to him about the matter of the flawed bodies.

Jun Wuxie said that he could help the aboriginals of Hanzhou and the enlightened creatures that had not been infected by the evil demonic energy to cultivate complete and flawless bodies.

The City Lord of Hanzhou was so excited that he could not control himself, and suddenly stood up from his seat.

“Is this true?”

“Absolutely true.

Now, all the original inhabitants of my Jun Yue City have broken free from the shackles of this world.”

As Jun Wuxie spoke, he took out the Life Wheel Flesh Zhī.

When the City Lord of Hanzhou saw it, his eyes bloomed with brilliant divine light, and he instantly took two steps forward, uncontrollably holding the Life Wheel Flesh Zhī in his hands.

He carefully observed it, feeling the majestic life force inside, his face full of shock.

“What a treasure!

There is such a divine object in the world!

Beginning God, this object must have been obtained with great difficulty, right?”

“For this object, I risked my life many times, and went through many hardships.

Fortunately, I finally brought it back, so you Secret Realm aboriginals can solve the problem of your bodies.”

Hearing this, the City Lord of Hanzhou couldn't help but tremble.

At this moment, a feeling of indescribable emotion suddenly arose in his heart.

Beginning God disregarded his safety and risked his life to find this life divine object, just to solve the physical defects for the Secret Realm beings!

At this moment, when the City Lord of Hanzhou looked at this young man again, he only felt that his radiance was so dazzling, even more brilliant than before, his figure was so tall and majestic, his heart was so broad, and he had great love in his heart!

“The Secret Realm beings are so lucky to meet Beginning God!

Beginning God bestows blessings and is as kind as a mountain to us beings.

On behalf of the people of Hanzhou, I express my gratitude to Beginning God, and in the future, we will definitely repay Beginning God and go through fire and water without hesitation!”

“City Lord, you are too polite.

Put the Life Wheel Flesh Zhī here with you.

Find time to arrange for the people of Hanzhou to cultivate flawless bodies.

After the bodies are flawless, take good care of the Life Wheel Flesh Zhī, so that it can be used by the beings in other regions in the future.

I should go to the City of the World.

I haven't returned for ten years, and the progress of the Secret Realm has fallen far behind.

It's time to catch up.”

Hearing this, the City Lord of Hanzhou suddenly had a deep look of guilt on his face, and said, “Beginning God, when your Jun Yue City was attacked that year, we were unable to help because of the Heavenly Dao rules, Beginning God…”

“I don't blame you.

After all, Hanzhou City is not my force, and it is located in a different level of region.

Due to the limitations of the rules, it is naturally impossible to go.”

“I'm afraid that Jun Yue City will still face such problems in the future.

Although Beginning God has returned, if Beginning God is in the Secret Realm and does not know the situation outside, I am afraid there will still be crises.

I hope Beginning God can obtain another City-Building Order as soon as possible.

At that time, I and the people of Hanzhou are willing to serve Beginning God as our master, just like Jun Yue City.

At that time, we and Jun Yue City can rightfully support each other.”

“Are you really willing?”

“Willing!

As long as Beginning God brings the City-Building Order, I will immediately give up the position of City Lord.

From then on, I am willing to serve under Beginning God, doing my best until I die!”

“I am already very gratified that you have this heart.

City-Building Orders are not easy to obtain, and the difficulty is extremely high.

Let's talk about this later.

I am going to the City of the World now.”

“I will send Beginning God off.”

“No need, you rest.”

Jun Wuxie did not let him see him off.

Leaving the City Lord's Mansion, he went straight to the border of Hanzhou.

According to the map obtained previously, there were markings indicating the road to the Level 4 Region.

It's just that the Level 4 Region was not open at that time, so even if you reached that intersection, you couldn't continue forward due to the Order Barrier sealing it off.

Now, there is naturally no need to worry about these problems.

After leaving Hanzhou Ancient City, Jun Wuxie took out the Swift Wind Shoes and put them on.

As for other exclusive divine artifacts, he did not wear them.

The Swift Wind Shoes possess a fifty-fold speed increase, an astonishing effect, and are truly worthy of being called a divine artifact for traveling.

Of course, the effect is still powerful during combat, allowing the wearer's speed and agility to reach an astonishing level.

Then, he took out a High-Level Swift Travel Talisman, providing a hundred-fold speed boost in a non-combat state.

He sped along the way, like a streak of light cutting through the night sky, disappearing into the vast horizon.

The Hanzhou territory is very large, with a vast area, much larger than the Junyue City territory.

Even though Junyue City has been upgraded to a Level 3 City, raising the region level from Level 2 to Level 3, and the territory has been greatly expanded, it is still not as vast as Hanzhou.

It took him a full two days to reach the border area between Hanzhou and the Level 4 Region.

In the past, he had never been to the World Capital, so he couldn't directly teleport from Hanzhou's post station and could only fly there himself.

However, once you have been to the World Capital and left a mark at the Life Crystal there, you can teleport through the post stations of the main cities by paying the corresponding exclusive coins, saving time and effort.

The Order Barrier that once separated the two major regions had long disappeared, and the road was now unobstructed.

Jun Wuxie passed through the border area, and the power of space rippled.

In an instant, a vast landscape came into view.

"Initial, welcome to the Ningzhou territory, begin a new growth journey, and wish you a lot of opportunities!

You can go to the World Capital to buy combat aids and improve your training efficiency."

The long-lost voice of the Secret Realm Order sounded in his mind, giving him a hint of the rules of order.

Jun Wuxie took out the map and studied it for a while.

In the past, he couldn't see the full picture of Ningzhou, only a marked area on the map.

Now he can finally see it.

His divine sense entered the Ningzhou area on the map, and the entire Ningzhou map rapidly enlarged in his eyes.

Its area on the map reached more than ten times that of Hanzhou!

Many large and small secret realms are marked here, numbering over a thousand, with more than a dozen secret realms with a difficulty of nine stars.

In the past, the highest difficulty was only seven stars, and the strongest creatures in the secret realms were Origin-level beings.

With a difficulty of nine stars, one can imagine that there must be Chaos-level beings.

As for Chaos King-level, Jun Wuxie speculated that Ningzhou did not have them, and that only the World Capital should have Chaos King-level beings.

How strong are Chaos-level beings exactly?

It can be imagined that the Chaos-level beings here must all be at the thirteenth-order realm, and most of them should be at the peak of the thirteenth-order!

The peak of the thirteenth-order is equivalent to the Great Celestial Realm of the Supreme God, which is two celestial realms higher than him.
