In that brief moment, Occisus had truly acknowledged the Pharmacist. It had helped her to break through to Paragon.
The white lotus shot forward. Its power was far inferior to the Violet Princess' Domain, but the Domain couldn't stop the murderous aura of the Pharmacist.
The murderous aura caused the world to change color.
All powers seemed to retreat in front of it.
The Violet Princess was strong, but for a moment she hesitated. She didn't dare make the first move.
Lan Jue's Captus seemed to be affected by Occisus. It began to vibrate, and a halo of crimson light erupted from the blade. It formed a sea of crimson light that seemed to weave itself into something. It melded with the murderous aura of Occisus, causing everything around it to feel strange.
The Violet Princess shrieked, and without hesitation she turned and fled. She disappeared in a flash of purple light.
Just as she was about to escape, a door made of red and white light appeared in the void.
Above the door were three words: Gate of Immortal Slaughter!
Everything between heaven and earth seemed to become a sea of red and white. The space around them collapsed and shattered.
All the asteroids within a hundred kilometers stopped moving. Then, one by one, they crumbled into dust.
The murderous aura that filled the void threatened to destroy the entire world.
At Lan Jue's back, Captus grew in size. She slashed through the void, and as she did so the snow-white Occisus flared to life. It released a beam of white light that engulfed the Pharmacist.
"What are you waiting for? Let's go!" Jun Yongye's low voice rang in Lan Jue's mind.
Lan Jue snapped out of her daze. With a wave of her right hand, Captus shrank and fell into her palm. She became one with the blade and shot forward in a beam of crimson light. Occisus transformed into a beam of white light and followed close behind.
The two sword lights disappeared without a trace in an instant.
In the sky, the huge light gate gradually faded after a dozen seconds. Even so, the entire space seemed to be filled with an unparalleled majesty.
Streaks of invisible, distorted ripples wreaked havoc in the surroundings, constantly changing.
It was as if the laws of the universe were subdued by that terrifying Slaughter Qi.
After another ten seconds or so, an incomparably tyrannical will swept across, and then two purplish-red lights appeared at the same place.
It was the Violet Prince and Princess.
Bewilderment flickered in the Violet Princess's eyes. Her flawless face contorted in incredulity.
"So scary. The aura just now was really scary."
The Violet Princess muttered. "It's like my energy and spirit are about to crumble.
How could there be such a superior aura?
According to the laws of the universe, after attaining the control of heaven and earth, one would be strongly suppressed!
But just now, I clearly sensed that this power had already broken through the laws of the universe. It even surpassed that of an Imperial Lord who couldn't unleash his full power. "
The Violet Prince's brows furrowed, as if trying to sense something.
After a long time, he spoke in a low voice. "His Majesty said it wasn't real. It was a simulated energy wave.
But it was of a very high level.
It was similar to the sword left behind by that man.
His Majesty had only recently been able to control the power of that human sword. Perhaps in the near future he will be able to discover what it was.
Princess, you are too timid. "
The Violet Princess responded with pride. "I am to be Empress, I must seek fortune and avoid calamity.
However, I am more interested in that human. I must mate with him. I am sure we will produce stronger offspring. "
The Violet Prince's eyes narrowed. "What did you say about that human woman?
Perhaps, I've found a suitable mate. "
A violet light flashed in the Violet Princess's eyes. In front of her, the image of the Pharmacist appeared.
Even the energy waves were eighty percent similar.
… …
Silver stars twinkled in the night sky. Beams of silver light wove together to form a dazzling halo of light. In the next moment, space was torn apart. A deep blue battleship emerged from the rift and floated down to earth.
In the next instant, all the energy fluctuations of the battleship were completely withdrawn, and everything became quiet, as if nothing had happened.
Aboard Zeus -1, the Wine Master slumped to the floor in exhaustion. Using his own power to teleport such a long distance had been a strain on him.
This was the Shattered Starfields, a place where energy interference was strong.
Not to mention the battleship's size.
Lan Jue's face flickered with shock. Captus had been sheathed, but Occisus hung upside down in the air, its white light faintly discernible.
Fortunately, with Captus' help, its murderous energy was restrained. Otherwise, the others aboard the battleship would have succumbed long ago.
The Pharmacist was nowhere to be seen, but Lan Jue could feel the power pulsing from Occisus.
The Pharmacist had become a Paragon. She didn't know if she would be able to become a Reflection of Heaven and Earth like Lan Qing.
After all, she had the Immortal Slaughtering Sword, a super divine weapon.
If she could use Occisus to its fullest potential, she would be a cornerstone in the fight against the aliens in the future.
Lan Jue would be lying if she said she wasn't envious of the Pharmacist's breakthrough.
Many of Lan Qing's companions had recently broken through to Paragon. Lan Qing was a Reflection of Heaven and Earth with the Buddha's Light and Vairocana dharma. He was the most talented Paragon in all of humanity.
Huali had also received Neptune's inheritance. She had successfully ascended to Paragon status, becoming the true Majesty of Neptune.
Chu Cheng was only a hair's breadth away from becoming a Paragon.
Even the Pharmacist had broken through.
What about himself?
Lan Jue was now ninth level eighth rank. If he wanted to he could break through to ninth level ninth rank in no time at all, and even break through to Paragon.
He had the Immortal Qi brought by the Thunder Essence, and he had the Heavenly Thunder, a great killing weapon. The current him was no longer a pure ability user.
However, he was limited by his own bloodline. Bize's Arrow of Kindness had caused his blood to merge with Qianlin's. Both of them had to become Paragons in order to break through.
Zhou Qianlin's cultivation was slightly lower than his own, and Lan Jue was worried that if Zhou Qianlin couldn't break through while conscious, it would be a problem for her to become a Paragon.
How could she advance without experiencing the changes of protogenia that came with breaking through to Paragon?
What's more, it was hard to say if there would be any dangers along the way.
After all, at the Paragon level, understanding was the most important thing.
Lan Jue's face betrayed a helpless expression. But he knew he couldn't be too hasty.
No matter what, he had to wake Qian Lin.
He couldn't help but think back to when Zhou Qianlin had pulled at his sleeve. It was a sign that she might wake up soon.
Every time he cultivated with Zhou Qianlin, Lan Jue poured the immortal qi of the thunder essence into Zhou Qianlin, using it to nourish her body.
It was why Zhou Qianlin looked more and more like a fairy.
Lan Jue believed that no matter how deadly the Phantom of the Astral Phantom's poison was, it couldn't compare to immortal qi. With the healing power of immortal qi, Qian Lin would recover.
"What in the world just happened?" The Clockmaker looked at the startled Lan Jue.
Lan Jue snapped out of his reverie and smiled wryly. "The aliens are more sensitive than we thought.
I grabbed an alien as quickly as I could, but the Violet Princess was drawn to me.
Under the pressure, the Pharmacist broke through.
Then our swords formed a power that scared the Violet Princess away. I brought her back as fast as I could, but she's still in the process of breaking through. "
"The Pharmacist's breakthrough is unexpected!
Meditate and feel the protogenia she brings.
I'm here to protect you. "
Zeus -1 had completed its long-distance teleportation. So long as the alien planets didn't head in their direction, they wouldn't be discovered.
Su Xiaosu, Lin Guo-guo, and the Driver didn't need the Clockmaker's reminder. As soon as the ship touched down, they sat down and began to meditate.
Su Xiaosu and Lin Guo-guo still had a long way to go before they could break through to Paragon, but the Driver was very close.
The day he completed his transformation was the day he would break through to Paragon.
His mastery of the Violet Myrtle Lightning was improving by the day. Although it couldn't compare to Lan Jue's, it was a foregone conclusion that he would become a Paragon.
Lan Jue also sat down cross-legged and began to feel the Pharmacist's protogenia. It was the easiest for him to understand.
It was the aura of Occisus. Lan Jue himself had Captus, and when he broke through to Paragon they would both use the Banishing Blades as Paragons. That was why they had something in common.
Of course, Lan Jue had his own share of the power. His All-Heaven lightning and thunder essence continued to fuse with each other. His Discipline continued to rise, and at the same time, he began to sense the unique power of the immortal realm.
