NOVPUB"No, that’s... the Creation Jade Butterfly!"
Throwing out a chess piece, the Floating Life Emperor who just shockingly killed two Demon Monarchs and two Bodhisattvas seemed to recognize something, and lost the composure he had earlier. Ignoring the game, he abruptly stood up.
Because he moved too fast, a pile of pieces fell from the board in front of him due to the vibration.
His figure flickered, and the Floating Life Emperor crossed millions of miles in a single step, appearing in the sky above the Ten Directions Demon Realm.
Earlier, the three-way battle was intense, yet he did not make a move at all, and was even indifferent to the Eternal Golden Body. But upon seeing that butterfly, he couldn’t help but rush over.
"Go!"
Only then did Zhang Xuan realize that because of that butterfly, he had already lost his hidden power, fully exposed before everyone.
Knowing that in the sky above, any one of them could squish him to death, Zhang Xuan dared not linger even for a moment. Just as he was about to dive into the spatial wormhole he left behind, he suddenly saw not far away the shattered corpses and two Essence Pills, along with two Bodhisattva Relics.
They were precisely the two Demon Monarchs and two Bodhisattvas who had been smashed to death by a single chess piece from the Floating Life Emperor.
Perhaps it was the effect of the 90 tael of Qi Fortune he carried, or for some other reason, but they happened to fall near his hiding place, at a distance of less than a few hundred meters.
"Desperate times call for desperate measures!"
Knowing such a chance seldom comes, Zhang Xuan hesitated not a bit, his Eternal Heart suddenly thumped, and the Essence Pill of the Red Flame Demon Monarch burned intensely, releasing a massive surge of power aimed directly at the Essence Pills and Relics.
Fortune is sought amid danger, given the circumstances, it doesn’t matter going for it this time.
The two Demon Monarchs and two Bodhisattvas had only their bodies shattered, their souls were still around. Just as they tried to reclaim their pills, they saw an unknown spatial power envelop all of these items, making them disappear in the next moment.
This was a new type of spatial power, entirely different from that of the Source World.
"It’s a new world! This Zhang Xuan can actually mold a Realm? He, he is a Mandate Chaos Master!"
"A Mandate Chaos Master?"
"Mandate Chaos Masters can comprehend numerous fragments of the heavens, causing the Unique Destiny of 天道 to become uncertain and can even construct worlds. This person must be killed!"
Only then did everyone understand why this Zhang Xuan could repeatedly evade detection; it turns out he possesses his unique realm and is a Mandate Chaos Master.
"Stay here!"
The Buddha was the first to react, striking forcefully.
"Don’t flee!"
The Demon Lord also roared with demonic flames.
The two top-tier masters who were just battling fiercely, now resolved their enmity and simultaneously attacked Zhang Xuan.
"Go!"
Knowing any delay could mean eternal doom here, Zhang Xuan dared not hesitate, he leaped into the Suspended Realm.
"Can you escape?"
At this point, the Floating Life Emperor had arrived at the Ten Directions Demon Realm, suspending in the sky, reaching forward with his hand.
The figure of Zhang Xuan, about to vanish, was forcibly pulled out, hanging in mid-air, like an insect trapped in amber, unable to move no matter how much he struggled.
"Damn it..."
Zhang Xuan’s heart sank.
He originally thought the Suspended Realm, which he crafted and controlled as the Master of One Realm, wouldn’t allow the Floating Life Emperor or even anyone stronger to harm him. But now, it seemed he underestimated these First Level Destiny holders of the Source World.
Under this force, not only could he not escape, but the Suspended Realm might also be broken through with a single palm strike.
Could it be... the hand that killed Nie Yun years ago, the same hand that struck the Library of Heaven’s Path into his body, belonged to this person?
These thoughts flickered in his mind, realizing he had no time to ponder. If he didn’t find a way to break free, he’d surely die here. His mind sparked an idea, and the Qi Fortune within him began to burn furiously.
He dared to act amidst so many strong adversaries because his Qi Fortune was enough!
This might not be useful most of the time, but in a crisis, it could give him a ray of hope.
"Hand over the Eternal Heart first!"
As Qi Fortune burned, even the Buddha could no longer hold back, reaching out with a Buddha’s Palm from a distance.
Clearly, he too understood that once Zhang Xuan fell into the hands of the Floating Life Emperor, the Eternal Heart would be forever lost to him, and he must act before the emperor succeeds.
"So he holds the Eternal Heart, I want it too..."
Only now did the Ten Directions Demon Lord understand what both parties were vying for, a hint of greed glinting in his eyes as he also extended his hand.
The three great masters struck simultaneously. As their powers clashed, the compressed space developed a tiny fissure, embodying the one gone among the 50大道.
"What an opportunity!"
Zhang Xuan recognized this as his unparalleled chance brought by heavenly fortune, wasting no time he shook his hand, throwing out the Ten Directions Bodhi Demon Suppression Rope he obtained from Blue Cloud Venerable.
The opportunity dangled before him, yet it required sacrifice. Hopefully, this Buddhist Supreme Treasure could momentarily hold back the others.
With a thought, the power within the Demon Suppression Rope could no longer be contained and exploded instantly.
In the blink of an eye, the space in front shattered into powder, allowing Zhang Xuan to seize the moment and quietly disappear from sight.
This time, he traversed more than a dozen times, shifting through over ten locations, severing all causal links to the outside, silently returning to the Suspended Realm.
After completing all these, he found that the 90 taels of Qi Fortune borrowed earlier were nearly half consumed, with less than 50 taels remaining!
Nonetheless, it was totally worth it!
He wasn’t clear about what that butterfly was, but... just the Essence Pills of the two Demon Monarchs, plus the Relics of the two Bodhisattvas, were enough to accomplish anything.
As his cultivation grows, although the Essence Pill of the Red Flame Demon Monarch could also provide power, allowing him to unleash Saint 9-dan pinnacle strength, it could exhaust after a single battle if used at full capacity. But an Essence Pill of a Demon Monarch, refined tenfold, is another story. Not merely one fight, ten, even a hundred battles would be no problem. 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Sufficient to sustain him until his cultivation breaks through to the peak of Life Sea 9-dan.
"He managed to escape?"
While Zhang Xuan was inspecting his spoils, the experts within the Ten Directions Demon Realm were on the verge of eruption.
A group came to seize the Ethereal Butterfly Spirit, only for it to be taken by Feng Yuanping. Attempting to snatch the Creation Jade Butterfly and Eternal Heart, everything, including the Essence Pills and Bodhi, were taken...
Not only did they lose two Demon Monarchs and two Bodhisattvas but they were also utterly humiliated...
"Since it’s a Mandate Chaos Master, it seems we need to plan long term..."
The Floating Life Emperor hovered in mid-air, his face revealing neither anger nor emotion, only cold indifference in his gaze.
"Your Majesty, what exactly is the Creation Jade Butterfly you mentioned earlier, that it merits your personal intervention?"
At this, the Demon Lord couldn’t help but look up and inquire.
All eyes gathered on him.
