“I’ve received the mission prompt as well,” said the handsome young man.
The young demon swordsman in purple robes immediately listened attentively.
Members of the Temple of Time and Space traversed countless worlds, and faced all manner of perilous situations. Without any mission prompts, they would be completely blind, making it extremely difficult to complete their missions. However, if one’s status and strength were high enough to be specially cultivated by the Temple of Time and Space, the Temple would not wish for such members to perish easily, and thus mission prompts would be provided.
To receive a mission prompt meant that the “handsome young man” was definitely extremely powerful!
“The mission prompt is… Dongbo Xueying of the Xia Clan, a Transcendent who wields the Ultimate Penetration Truth!” The handsome young man smiled slightly. Dongbo Xueying had chosen the name on a whim when he first felt its presence, yet it coincided exactly with the name established in the Divine Realm.
“Ultimate Penetration? Is it related to the legendary first-grade Truth, the Ultimate Truth?” the young demon swordsman asked hurriedly.
The man clad in black metal beside them sneered coldly, “Of course it is! Ultimate Penetration is a branch of the Ultimate Truth! It is a second-grade Truth, and an utterly extreme offensive Truth! If it weren’t for our senior being here, the rest of us might have all perished on this mission! For us Transcendents at the Saint level, surviving under the assault of the Ultimate Penetration Truth is practically impossible.”
“Very powerful?” the demon swordsman in purple asked in confusion, “How powerful exactly?”
He had never even heard of it before.
“Ultimate Penetration moves faster than teleportation—you can’t even think of escaping through teleportation,” the black metal man said coldly. “It can breach both spatial and material barriers. Even if you’re wearing armor made of semi-divine artifacts, it can directly penetrate into your body! Your defenses are completely useless. And since it is a purely offensive Truth, its attack power is far stronger than that of ordinary second-grade Truths!”
“In actual combat, Dongbo Xueying could appear before us in an instant and reduce our bodies to dust with a single strike! Even an immortal body would be useless—this destruction occurs at the particle level! No immortal body could withstand more than a few strikes,” the black metal man said, staring at the demon swordsman in purple.
“This… this…” the demon swordsman was stunned.
It was terrifying.
Second-grade Truths were already legendary and fearsome. A purely offensive second-grade Truth was even more terrifying!
The handsome young man said, “We’ve already paid the price to prepare a formation to prevent this Xia Clan Transcendent from forcibly penetrating. If we don’t stop his penetration, we will be picked off one by one. We also have a detailed plan for this mission. You’ll need to act accordingly when the time comes! Our preparation time is almost up; Kirlo will soon discover us.”
Buzz~~~
The surrounding space-time began to fluctuate, and the time flow in their area started to synchronize with the outside world.
…
Inside the Demon Palace.
Kirlo suddenly changed expression. He sensed a powerful surge of energy from one of the regions within the Demon Palace.
“Intruders!”
“Enemies!”
“It must be the Xia Clan Transcendent!”
The two third-stage demons responsible for monitoring the formation were the first to detect it. The formation covered the entire Demon Palace, including the vast surrounding area.
The message was immediately relayed to the linked demons.
A fat demon was indulging in food and drink when he suddenly received the message and was startled.
“Enemies?” The fat demon immediately channeled his magic, activating the secret rune on his soul. Buzz—he instantly enhanced his soul perception, immediately sensing another linked demon beside the general, and immediately informed him: “The Xia Clan Transcendent is attacking!”
As the linked demon reported—
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Kirlo immediately transformed into a streak of light, rushing toward the source of the energy surge. The distance of just a few miles was nothing to him. In an instant, he saw the five figures standing in the plaza, exuding powerful auras.
He was somewhat astonished at first sight.
“Hmm? A succubus? And this is a metal race lifeform?” Kirlo immediately noticed that among the five figures, one was a succubus from his own abyssal demon race, and the black metal man was a rare lifeform from the metal race across countless worlds.
But no matter what, since they had appeared within his own lair, Kirlo unhesitatingly threw a punch.
Boom~~~
His fist radiated dazzling brilliance, countless golden lights hidden within it, undergoing some mysterious transformation! This punch carried a terrifying, world-destroying power, tearing through all obstacles with astonishing speed, almost instantly striking down, its might reaching at least the level of a seasoned demigod!
“Kirlo, don’t rush to attack—we are not your enemies!” a strange wave directly transmitted into Kirlo’s mind.
At the same time, the handsome young man smiled and threw a punch as well.
Black flame battle aura flew from his fist, directly colliding with Kirlo’s terrifying punch.
Peng!
The two forces collided, a powerful shockwave immediately radiating outward in all directions, shattering the ground and causing the surrounding palace walls to begin collapsing.
The handsome young man, directly affected by the impact, floated gracefully backward to land.
Kirlo, however, let out a muffled groan, landing with a hand over his chest, a trace of pain on his face, and a slight trickle of blood at the corner of his mouth. He looked at the handsome young man in shock. His body, due to being in the second stage of the Golden Radiance Truth, was extremely strong. He could normally withstand attacks from fifth-stage demons barehanded without any injury.
Yet, with just one strike, he had actually been injured! Of course, his immortal body immediately healed, so the injury wasn’t too significant.
“Kill them!” As the two clashed, the other two fifth-stage demons and the rest of the demons quickly arrived to join the fight.
“Hmph!” The woman in red robes standing nearby let out a cold snort, and instantly summoned a vast surge of magical power, drawing upon boundless cosmic forces. Although these demons were all capable of controlling cosmic forces, at this moment, they could not compete with this woman in red robes. In an instant, many regions across the hundred-mile-wide palace suddenly sprouted countless red lotuses. These red lotuses abruptly enveloped the demons rushing toward them.
In an instant,
The two fifth-stage demons and the rest of the demons were all wrapped in red lotuses, struggling in vain to break free.
“So strong!” Kirlo’s expression changed slightly. This woman in red robes was a Transcendent mage! And a terrifyingly powerful one at that—her strength likely rivaled his own!
“If we were to fight, Kirlo, you might still put up a little resistance, but your subordinates would already be dead,” the handsome young man smiled as he extended his arm, revealing a smooth forearm. Strange patterns emerged on his forearm’s skin. Looking at these patterns, one couldn’t help but feel drawn into an endless vortex of time and space, a sight that sent chills down one’s spine.
“The Temple of Time and Space?” Kirlo was shocked. “You are Reincarnators of the Temple of Time and Space?” However, his hostility had greatly diminished.
Across countless worlds, in the Abyss, in the Divine Realm…
There were truly supreme powers!
Such as the “Temple of Time and Space” and the “Blood Blade Tavern,” the beings behind these organizations stood at the very pinnacle across all worlds.
The great being behind the Temple of Time and Space was said to be the truly strongest in the domain of time and space! Even the rules of the material world could not stop this being, so he could capture countless beings and put them through countless trials. The weak were weeded out, leaving only the strong. And he prepared the best training methods and environments, among other things.
Those chosen were called “Reincarnators” because each mission carried the danger of death. Some were almost certain death! Each mission was like a cycle of life and death, hence the name “Reincarnators.”
This selection process made the Temple of Time and Space extremely powerful at the top echelon, naturally becoming one of the most supreme powers across countless worlds!
In fact, the Blood Blade Tavern, which was on par with the Temple of Time and Space, and several other supreme powers, each had their own terrifying characteristics.
However!
In the mortal world, other major powers were at a disadvantage. Because the mortal world belonged to the “Material Realm,” gods could not directly descend. Relying on world projections? Too weak! Relying on divine avatars? The cost was too high! It was already very difficult to send treasures into the mortal world.
But the Temple of Time and Space could easily enter one mortal world after another…
Of course, by mutual understanding among all parties, the Temple of Time and Space was forbidden from building their own temples in countless mortal worlds! For example, the Blood Blade Tavern had branches in countless mortal worlds but was forbidden from spreading its faith!
“Why have you Reincarnators of the Temple of Time and Space gotten involved?” Kirlo frowned and demanded. The Reincarnators of the Temple of Time and Space undertook missions for deadly trials and selections. Sometimes they helped one side, sometimes the other. Even the Temple of Time and Space would sometimes arrange their own Reincarnators to fight on opposing sides.
“To help you!” the handsome young man sneered. “Still don’t understand? If we wanted to attack, we would have done so already! You should realize that you are no match for us at all!”
Kirlo’s expression changed, but he nodded slightly: “I believe you. You’re helping me? What do you need my help for?”
“Red Leaf, has the formation been set up?” the handsome young man turned to the woman in red robes. She was a companion of his strength, and the one he trusted the most.
“The formation to block spatial penetration has already been laid,” the woman in red robes said. Using the countless red lotuses spread throughout the Demon Palace, she had already begun setting up the formation subtly. “Other formations will take a bit more time.”
“Hurry up. Dongbo Xueying is estimated to arrive soon,” the handsome young man urged.
“Dongbo Xueying?” Kirlo was somewhat uncertain. “You’re talking about Dongbo Xueying of the Xia Clan, the Transcendent?”
“It’s him,” the handsome young man nodded.
“But this Xia Clan Transcendent is only about as strong as a fifth-stage demon. Why would he come here?” Kirlo frowned.
…
Within the spatial rift.
Dongbo Xueying, Chi Qiubai, He Shan Zhu, and Sikong Yang were traversing through the void, arriving outside the membrane of a small Transcendent world.
“This is the third location,” Dongbo Xueying said, gazing at the massive world membrane before him. Just now, he had already swept through the second demon lair, and everything had gone smoothly. Although one fifth-stage demon had torn through space to try to escape, the corresponding external area was guarded by Chi Qiubai and the other two demigods—he had flown straight into their trap!
“I’m going in,” Dongbo Xueying smiled and tore through the world membrane.
“Be careful,” Chi Qiubai warned. “Don’t get careless just because things have gone smoothly so far.”
“I understand,” Dongbo Xueying took a step forward and entered the small Transcendent world, vanishing from the sight of the three behind him.
