Looking at the various expressions in front of him, Luo Xiu could understand the disbelief in everyone's hearts. However, Luo Xiu remained very calm on the surface. He knew very well that at this moment, he was carrying the monstrous might of killing five Supremes. Every word he said would definitely make everyone present listen to him obediently. This also made Luo Xiu feel extremely heroic.
Until now, Luo Xiu still felt that it was a little unreal. In fact, even he himself felt that it was somewhat inconceivable. This matter had gone so smoothly that it was simply unbelievable. Although he had only sealed the souls of these four supreme experts and did not refine them on the spot, Luo Xiu was already clear in his heart that he had absolute confidence in the transformation of his soul with the souls of these four experts.
"Who are you?
Why have I never seen you before?
Fellow Daoist, you shouldn't be from our Skywolf World, right? Why are you helping us?
Also, why are you helping us?
What is your goal?
From the strength that Fellow Daoist displayed, you shouldn't be a nobody, right? "The Skywolf World's High Priest looked at Luo Xiu and asked evasively.
At this moment, the battle in the sky and on the ground had stopped. Everyone was looking at Luo Xiu with all kinds of gazes. It couldn't be helped. The terrifying might that he had displayed had intimidated everyone in the field. He was too sharp. He had killed five Supreme-Beings in one strike. Such terrifying strength was simply a crushing existence.
"Hehe, this young master's background?
You wouldn't know even if I told you!
I'm from the Sacred Region of the Nine Rings … As for anything else, I really can't tell you!
The reason why I couldn't help but help you is because you are pitiful enough. Furthermore, I'm very interested in the future of your world. If possible, I want to understand your world as much as possible. As for the Holy Ground World, I've already killed half of their high-end combat forces. I believe that with your current overall strength, it shouldn't be a problem to take it down. You don't have to be so ruthless. Just extract a portion of the Holy Ground World's World Origin for your own use. At most, you can just plunder it when you encounter the next world. Isn't that what you've always done? "Luo Xiu's expression was full of disapproval as he spoke with a slightly frivolous tone.
After saying this, Luo Xiu's sharp eyes scanned the entire battlefield. His leisurely words reverberated throughout the battlefield. In particular, when he looked at the Supremes who were glaring angrily at the Holy Ground, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl into a playful smile.
At this moment, Luo Xiu's expression looked as if he was asking for a beating as he faced the gazes of the experts from the Holy Ground. However, no one dared to say anything. Thinking of the sharp methods he had used earlier, even though they were enraged, they did not dare to say anything in the face of the powerful Luo Xiu. The lesson from the past was still vivid in their minds. Luo Xiu had killed four of their Supremes with a wave of his hand, and to be able to kill five existences of the same level as them so easily, it was clear that his strength had already been deeply rooted in their hearts.
No matter how angry the Supremes of the Holy Ground were, no one dared to say anything at this moment, especially Luo Xiu, who was currently shrouded in the golden laws of time, giving everyone a mysterious feeling. Above his head, the Magic Lamp of Time was like a sun, shining brightly, and an incomparably tyrannical pressure of the laws of time pervaded the entire battlefield. The reason why everyone had suddenly stopped fighting was partly because they were shocked by Luo Xiu's strength, but more so because the ability of the Magic Lamp of Time had directly imprisoned most of them, and many of them were still maintaining their original fighting postures.
Luo Xiu felt as if he was in a dream. Although he knew that his combat strength was astonishing after mastering the laws of time, he did not expect that he would be able to kill four existences of the same level with a wave of his hand. As he looked at the scene in front of him, he could not be bothered to pay attention to the Holy Ground experts who were glaring at him. He turned his gaze to the High Priest, who was currently looking at him with a pensive expression. Only he knew how strong Luo Xiu was. Therefore, he did not have a good way to deal with Luo Xiu's attitude of not paying attention to them at all. After all, everyone knew that Luo Xiu was the biggest variable in this battle. As long as he clearly stood on one side, the other side would instantly lose their advantage even if they had a great advantage. Even the scales of victory would instantly be tipped in favor of him.
"Sacred Domain of the Nine Rings?
Then may I ask, what is your purpose in coming here?
What do you want from my Skywolf World?
I don't deny that you know the true situation of my Skywolf World, but you seem to be too arrogant!
Also, you have such a deep understanding of our world. What exactly is the matter? Don't tell me that you were just wandering in the chaos and accidentally discovered our place? "The High Priest's eyes were filled with vigilance as he looked at Luo Xiu and spoke word by word.
"Haha, all of you don't have to be so nervous. If I really had any intentions towards you, do you think that I would still help you? Also, do you really think that you can block my all-out attack with just the few of you?
I'm not boasting, nor do I have any intention of looking down on you. With the various divine powers that I have mastered, even if the experts of your two worlds were to combine, they would probably not be enough to be insta-killed by me!
The reason why I noticed you is because of the uniqueness of your world. After traveling in the Chaos for so many years, this is the first time I've seen a world like yours that can nurture an entire world like a supreme treasure. It really makes me curious. As for the thing that is still being nurtured in your world, I'm not interested. Don't be nervous! "
Upon hearing the High Priest's question, Luo Xiu instantly understood what he was thinking. Luo Xiu did not hesitate as he bluntly told the High Priest what he was worried about.
He knew better than anyone what the High Priest was worried about. He also knew that compared to what the High Priest was worried about, Luo Xiu could only say that the High Priest was overthinking. This was because Luo Xiu did not have any thoughts about it at all. What he said was indeed true. That thing did not attract him at all.
After all, he had plundered the Universe Origins of the myriad worlds through invading to replenish the Skywolf world. He had turned the Skywolf world into an Origins Dharma treasure that could travel through the Chaos void. This item might be fatally attractive to other cultivators, but to Luo Xiu, it was close to nothing.
It could not be helped. Many things were completely different from what he had planned. At this moment, Luo Xiu even wondered if he was dreaming. He did not expect things to go so smoothly. Although he did not attack the Supremes of the Skywolf World, Luo Xiu took advantage of the time law's effect on them to secretly search their souls. Of course, he did it very discreetly.
After a long while, Luo Xiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry in his heart. He thought of the previous battle and how he was able to read their memories so easily in the minds of these few Sovereigns. Everything showed that he had made a fatal mistake earlier. He had misjudged his own strength and wasted a lot of time for nothing. Now that he thought about it, he really didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He even suddenly realized that he was scaring himself earlier.
Seeing that everyone else was looking at him in horror, Luo Xiu felt an inexplicable sense of loss in his heart. Soon after, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry at his own speechless thoughts. He wasn't a sentimental person. He had originally prepared all kinds of methods, but now, he couldn't use any of them. It really made him a little disappointed. Looking at everyone who was still looking at him, Luo Xiu waved his hand and removed the suppression of the time law on them.
With the removal of the Time law, some people, who were maintaining difficult movements, were caught off guard and fell directly to the ground. Many people, as if drunk, strangely fell into an awkward silence again. No one was thinking about killing each other. However, this made Luo Xiu feel a little bored. The two sides, who were originally fighting fiercely, were actually restraining each other in such a strange way. Luo Xiu did not know whether to laugh or cry. At this moment, he inexplicably wanted to look up to the sky and laugh. Controlling the thoughts of hundreds of millions of people. This feeling was unprecedentedly good. Luo Xiu felt a sense of exaltation when what he had dreamed of suddenly came true.
He didn't feel anything before, but with his words and actions, the people of the two great worlds were very obedient to him. This made Luo Xiu feel a little smug. This was more convincing than any flattery. It was no exaggeration to say that Luo Xiu actually enjoyed this feeling very much at this moment.
However, he quickly came to his senses. He knew that it was just an illusion. These people were not aware of his background, which was why they were restraining themselves. If he really showed a trace of weakness, it would cause both sides to attack him. Be it the Holy Ground or the Skywolf World, it was impossible for them to find a retired emperor for him.
This situation was destined. It was impossible for Luo Xiu to be the peacemaker between the two sides. Therefore, the war had to continue. This was what Luo Xiu wanted to see. Seeing that the others were uncomfortable with him staying here, Luo Xiu chuckled. Then, he waved his hand and completely removed the seal. Following that, he vanished from his original spot.
To him, since he had achieved the ideal outcome he wanted, the continuation of the war did not have much to do with him. Devouring the souls of five Supremes in a row was a huge burden for Luo Xiu. He needed to spend time digesting these things. Therefore, he needed to find a safe place to cultivate in seclusion.
Along the way, Luo Xiu fell into deep thought. After all, he didn't know how long he would be in closed-door cultivation for. It was safer to stay in the Chaos. Moreover, even if the system made it sound extravagant, Luo Xiu still maintained sufficient vigilance against the system. He didn't want the system to cause any trouble while he was in closed-door cultivation. At that time, it would really catch him unprepared.
After returning to the Chaos, Luo Xiu looked back. His expression was extremely surprised. He saw that the two connected worlds, the Skywolf World and the Great World of the Holy Ground, were undergoing an unbelievable change.
The dimensional passageway that seemed extremely stable to him seemed to have changed due to the ongoing battle between the two sides. It was as though the Skywolf World was pulling the Holy Ground, slowly drifting into the depths of the Chaos.
When he thought of the real outcome he had obtained, the Universal Treasure that the Skywolf World had nurtured had turned the entire world into a powerful spatial treasure that could fly in the Chaos, Luo Xiu found it unbelievable. Even though he had thought of many possibilities, Luo Xiu still found it unbelievable when the real situation appeared in front of him. What the Supremes of the Skywolf World had done was a little crazy. These people had definitely made the craziest choice when they were at their wits' end.
Shaking his head and looking at the empty scene in front of him, Luo Xiu no longer paid attention to the two places he had abandoned. He reoriented himself and headed into the depths of the Chaos. The rest of his journey was very safe. The chaotic spatial storms that could be seen everywhere did not affect Luo Xiu at all.
At that moment, be it his cultivation level or his knowledge, he had far exceeded his previous self. Even though he had only spent an extremely short period of time in the Skywolf World, the things he had gained far exceeded anyone's imagination.
Especially all along the way, he had been refining the Soul Energies of the four Sovereigns with all his might. The nourishment to his soul was extraordinarily great. Not to mention anything else, just the boundless Chaotic Qi that circled around him at this moment was enough to explain everything.
Because he didn't expect that as his soul force was replenished, the energy required to transform his soul would be unimaginably terrifying. This was already the soul of the third Supreme-Being. His soul had long been full. However, just as he was about to take the step towards nine colors, he was actually stuck. That's right, he was stuck, even though he had absorbed a large amount of Primal Chaos Qi.
However, the soul transformation that he had imagined did not happen. Instead, Luo Xiu felt powerless. Luo Xiu knew that something was amiss as he hurriedly focused his mind. He knew that he could not panic at that moment. If he panicked, he would definitely cause a huge mess. More importantly, even if he panicked, it would be useless.
More importantly, Luo Xiu had no idea what to do at that moment to prevent the soul powers that he had spent so much effort to refine from dissipating. He had never encountered such a situation before, so he even felt a sense of panic.
Originally, Luo Xiu was hoping that the system in his mind would give him some advice, but when he raised the problem and the system expressed that it was unable to help, Luo Xiu knew that the situation was getting out of hand. This was because no matter how he looked at it, Luo Xiu could clearly sense that his soul powers were slowly dissipating. Even though he was surrounded by endless Chaos gases that prevented the dissipation of his soul powers, it was an indisputable fact that he was losing his soul powers. He could feel it.
The most important thing was that during this period of time, the integration process between the small world in his body and the Origin Universe was accelerating. As a result, the difficulty of the advancement of his soul had increased exponentially.
