Chapter 357: Main God Space (Part 13)

The strongest existence in the Myriad Beings Camp was actually a member of the Holy Clan!

This revelation left the Azure Bird Saint stunned. She stopped struggling, unable to believe the truth. The leader revered by the entire Myriad Beings Camp had been a Holy Clan member all along. The irony was overwhelming.

The Sword Bearer showed no shame. His expression remained calm. "I was born in the Holy Clan, but it was not the Holy Clan that raised me."

Abandoned by the Holy Clan as a child, he had been adopted by an ordinary human farming couple. He witnessed beauty that did not belong to the Holy Clan, experiences vastly different from the inheritance in his bloodline. He lived through the full spectrum of human life and came to understand that this world was not meant for the Holy Clan alone. It should have been a vibrant tapestry where countless races flourished together.

The Sword Bearer chose to aid the Myriad Beings Camp. He nurtured talents for them and accumulated foundations so that the Myriad Beings might one day break free from Holy Clan control.

As long as the Holy Clan remained, this world would never have a chance to advance further. Its path toward the Great Dao would end here. Setting aside racial ties, the Sword Bearer stood with the Myriad Beings Camp and opposed the Holy Clan.

"So be it... this is not a bad ending."

The Sword Bearer let out a long, wistful sigh.

After the Holy Clan's destruction, he would replace them as the greatest obstacle for the Myriad Beings. Su Chen's arrival had helped him reach this decision.

Though the Azure Bird Saint could not understand why the Sword Bearer would betray the Holy Clan to help the Myriad Beings, she broke down in tears.

To the Myriad Beings, the Sword Bearer was more than a leader and spiritual pillar. He was like a guiding father.

Su Chen greatly admired the Sword Bearer's ideals.

That admiration did not stop him from refining the Sword Bearer.

In the Azure Bird Saint's eyes, a terrifying change came over the youth before her. She suddenly felt fear. The figure in pristine white robes, who had seemed like an immortal, now presented an entirely different image.

'Demon!'

...

Inside the Holy Clan.

The ancestral progenitor regarded these uninvited guests who called themselves outsiders.

Each one possessed Saint realm cultivation, and the paths they walked clashed with the laws of this world. This convinced the progenitor of their identity as outsiders.

"You claim my Holy Clan faces the danger of annihilation?"

The progenitor's massive body revealed a portion of itself. Its gray-brown head was covered in eyes of varying sizes.

The horrifying sight made Gu Xiaoxiao step back. She muttered, "What an ugly monster."

All the eyes of different sizes turned toward her at once.

At that moment, the young man with the blade at his waist placed one hand on the hilt. His eyes narrowed into slits. An invisible force formed an unseen chasm between him and the progenitor.

Gu Xiaoxiao covered her mouth, realizing her mistake. None of the Godslayer Squad members paid it any mind.

The progenitor's enormous body broke through the gray mist and swallowed the heavens and earth.

"Another squad like ours has come to this world. They intend to help the other races overthrow your rule."

The young man spoke slowly.

Upon hearing his words, the progenitor burst into laughter. "Overthrow the rule of my Holy Clan? With the likes of you?"

"Leave. My Holy Clan has no need to cooperate with ants like you."

As soon as the words fell, a dimensional space transported the six of them outside the Holy Clan territory.

"The progenitor is far too arrogant. The Polar Star Region's ace team definitely possesses the strength to slay a Saint King!"

The woman surnamed Mo pushed up her glasses and sighed. They had gone through great lengths to make contact with the progenitor, only for him to reject their cooperation so easily.

As one of the top ace teams, they knew the strength of the Polar Star Region's ace squads well. They had hoped to borrow the Holy Clan's power to clear the mission without losses, but that plan had now fallen through.

"Since the Holy Clan refuses, we will have to face the Polar Star Region's ace team head-on," said the masked man carrying a blade and sword crossed on his back.

"Our priority right now is to locate the Polar Star Region team," the young man said helplessly.

The six of them scanned their surroundings.

A ninth-level world was vast. In the short term, they were doomed to wander like headless flies.

"?"

They had not traveled far when they suddenly sensed a majestic aura sweeping across the land.

"Someone is undergoing tribulation to become a Saint?"

"What a terrifying Saint tribulation... does the Myriad Beings Camp still have such an existence?"

The Godslayer Squad watched a beam of black light pierce the sky and descend in one direction. It expanded continuously, swallowing everything in its path with black lightning and reducing it to nothingness.

...

The essence of a half-step Saint King had provided Su Chen with enough energy to successfully break through to the Saint realm.

Inch by inch, mysterious black runes intertwined in his mind before condensing into a miniature figure identical to himself. The small figure opened its pitch-black pupils and gazed upon the world, as if intent on devouring everything in existence.

Su Chen named it the North Nether Demon Embryo.

The formation of the demon embryo marked the moment Su Chen formally embarked on a path to immortality different from any he had walked in his previous lives.

The Azure Bird Saint witnessed this horrifying scene and felt incredibly small. Saint realm cultivation represented the pinnacle in this world, yet she now harbored such absurd thoughts.

When she looked again, the youth's figure seemed to tower endlessly in her eyes, like a giant that had broken through the limits of heaven and earth.

Shadows flickered. The terrifying youth suddenly vanished. The Azure Bird Saint snapped back to her senses, only to realize she had collapsed to the ground at some point, drenched in sweat.

Su Chen had no interest in the Azure Bird Saint, nor did he intend to continue acting against the Myriad Beings Camp.

He had sensed the presence of the Main God Space team sent to hunt him down.

In a single instant, he unleashed a terrifying great divine ability that crossed the barriers of heaven and earth, turning vast distances into mere steps.

The Godslayer Squad, who had been heading toward the source of the terrifying black light, suddenly found that the black light had disappeared without warning.

"Strange!"

The young man leading them frowned.

Even if someone had become a Saint, the phenomenon should not have vanished so quickly. Had the tribulation failed?

While he was still puzzled, the originally clear sky suddenly turned into a vast expanse of black. The world lost all color.

The Godslayer Squad was, after all, a top team from their region. Though they usually acted casually, anyone deceived by their appearance would pay a heavy price. To survive the cruel Main God Space and rise as a regional ace team, they were far from simple.

In an instant, they reacted!

Chapter 358: Main God Space (Part 14)

"Over here!"

The owl-like beastman's eyes rippled like water. He keenly detected a surge of aura and immediately pointed out the location for his teammates.

Almost the instant the words left his mouth, someone reacted.

A blade and sword crossed, unleashing overwhelming power that annihilated space. The attack slashed toward the direction the beastman had indicated, stirring up an endless torrent of destructive force.

"Did we hit him?"

The others looked at the obliterated area. They knew their teammate's strength well. That combined blade and sword strike would be difficult for even a peak ninth-layer Saint to withstand.

Yet just as they anticipated victory, the surging torrent suddenly rebounded. The terrifying destructive power swept outward, forcing them to squint. Within that devastating flood, ordinary Saints would likely be erased.

Not good!

They spotted a figure flickering within the annihilating aura.

Then it fully revealed itself.

A handsome white-robed youth with an immortal-like bearing.

"Where is Gao Qiang... where did Gao Qiang go?"

Gao Qiang was the man with the blade and sword. He had charged forward in an instant to kill Su Chen.

Yet only Su Chen emerged from the heart of the storm.

With a casual wave of his hand, Su Chen released a horrifying aura that nearly blinded them, like a blazing black sun descending.

He offered no reply, but the answer was obvious.

Gao Qiang was dead.

In a single instant, their teammate—who possessed power comparable to a ninth-layer Saint—had perished.

Though they had survived countless missions, the death of a comrade still ignited fury in their hearts.

"Kill him! No matter who you are, you will pay the price!"

Only one thought remained in their minds: kill the youth before them.

The young man acted first. He drew the long blade at his waist and executed a simple downward slash. A golden holy light shot forward, arriving before Su Chen in an instant. The terrifying force could threaten even a Saint King. This was the Godslayer Squad's trump card that allowed them to disdain the Holy Clan's progenitor.

They possessed fearsome strength and techniques that made them invincible in ninth-level worlds.

But this time, they had encountered Su Chen.

To a true immortal who had overcome one tribulation after another, so-called peerless geniuses, ancient monsters, and supreme freaks were nothing new. Su Chen had seen far too many of them—even bizarre physiques and terrifying races born with mastery over laws. In his eyes, they were merely larger ants. Only immortals could contend with immortals.

In Su Chen's pupils, the projection of a golden-feathered blade light appeared. The terrifying blade capable of cleaving a Saint King's body halted an inch from his face and could advance no further.

The young man stared in shock at the scene.

A single finger.

The youth had blocked his full-powered strike with just one finger. This was no fluke—it was an insurmountable gap.

The other four felt a ominous premonition rise in their hearts.

"We must save the captain!"

Su Chen sensed a perfectly coordinated killing move closing in on him, compressing the surrounding space.

A thunderous boom echoed, as if heaven and earth fell silent together.

At the same moment, with a light flick of his finger, the long blade in the Godslayer Squad captain's hand shattered. The blade's spirit let out a pained wail as the captain was sent flying backward.

"Captain!"

The owl-like beastman moved swiftly to catch the young man, but cold sweat suddenly drenched him. He stared ahead in disbelief.

His ability allowed him to glimpse brief moments of the future.

With a bitter laugh, the beastman roared, "Run!"

He chose to self-destruct without hesitation, buying time for his teammates.

The remaining three had yet to understand the situation when a hand seized the beastman's head and lifted him high. The destructive aura of his intended self-explosion vanished instantly.

He could not even detonate.

"You... what kind of monster are you?"

The owl-like beastman struggled desperately, his voice filled with shock and despair.

"Let go of my companion!"

Gu Xiaoxiao shouted in fury. She spread her hands and pressed them inward. This was her ability—mastery over space. She could compress the space in a region and use that force to kill her enemies. The technique had always been infallible. Even a Saint King would suffer severe injuries if caught off guard.

Yet Gu Xiaoxiao discovered that her hands could not come together. An invisible repulsive force kept them apart.

"Aaaah!"

With a scream, blood flowed from her seven orifices. Her petite body became drenched in blood, but her hands still refused to meet.

Not good!

The mechanical being beside her snapped out of his fear. His mechanical heart burned at full power.

Su Chen raised his other hand and slapped down casually.

Terror filled Gu Xiaoxiao's expression as she realized she could not move.

The horrifying force locked onto her. The strike arrived in an instant, impossible to dodge or block.

Bang!

A sea of flames erupted before Gu Xiaoxiao's eyes. The aura was all too familiar. She stood there in a daze, her hands dropping limply. Two streams of clear tears slid down her face, following her gaze of utter despair.

Su Chen paid no mind to the fact that he had not slapped Gu Xiaoxiao to death. A stream of black energy instantly swallowed the owl-like beastman. Accompanied by a miserable scream, the cry lasted only a few breaths before vanishing completely. Another eighth-layer Saint had been effortlessly refined.

The power was enough to make one despair.

Gu Xiaoxiao lacked even the courage to take a single step. She could only watch as the youth's figure—no, as the terrifying demon lord—approached her step by step.

"Hmm?"

Su Chen sensed an aura rising behind him. He slowly turned his head.

The woman in the suit had reached the heavily injured young man's side.

She transformed into a streak of white light, shifting and changing until she became a long blade that fell into the young man's hand. A terrifying aura erupted within him, surpassing all limits and instantly shattering the Saint King barrier.

Soldier transformation... the Main God Space contained all kinds of methods. A top-tier team's configuration was extremely comprehensive. Unless one possessed overwhelming superior force, destroying such a team was nothing more than a pipe dream.

"In the end, it is still an ant trying to shake a tree."

Su Chen's expression remained calm as he watched the young man charge at him once more, burning with fearless passion.

If passion were enough, what need was there for strength?

This was the lesson endless years had taught Su Chen.

A thunderous boom rang out.

The divine weapon shattered. This time it did not even utter a wail. The young man flew backward again. His illusory battle armor broke apart and slowly dissipated into the form of a hazy woman in a suit.

"What kind of monster are you exactly..."

Facing the question, Su Chen replied indifferently, "I am the Main God Space rookie you have been looking for."
