Immortal powerhouses have incredibly long lifespans. Throughout the vast void, a legend has persisted: the existence of an invincible being who has never succumbed to old age.
In the extensive lifespan of Venerable Shi E, he had witnessed many events.
Tens of thousands of years ago, he saw beings from the Divine Realm clashing with powerhouses from the Kyushu world. Both sides were formidable, and he dared not linger, fleeing from a distance.
Of course, the Kyushu world was not located here at that time, but Venerable Shi E remembered the aura of the Kyushu world.
Later, he heard rumors that the powerhouses of the Kyushu world were forced to abandon their world by the powerhouses of the Divine Realm, fleeing everywhere. He was unclear about the final outcome.
Therefore, he was certain that the Kyushu world before him had no connection whatsoever with the Divine Realm, nor was it guarded by any powerhouse superior to himself.
Otherwise, the Kyushu world before him would not be drifting aimlessly in the void like this, without any concealment.
Throughout the entire void universe, there were only two situations where a world did not conceal its aura: one was a powerful world like the Divine Realm, which needed no concealment because no one dared to provoke it.
The other was a newly born universe. Such universes, lacking their own powerhouses and unfamiliar with the survival laws of the void universe, did not know to hide.
Thus, newly born universes were the most coveted by all existing beings.
The Kyushu world before him clearly belonged to the latter category.
Of course, this was assuming that the powerhouses who left the Kyushu world back then had not returned.
Upon hearing Venerable Shi E’s words, the three void beasts felt a sense of relief. Since there was no backing, there was no need for apprehension.
As for Venerable Shi E asking them to stay and contribute, they were willing. After all, disobedience would lead to death!
"You three approach this universe first and await my orders!" Venerable Shi E commanded.
"Yes! Lord." The three void beasts replied.
Meanwhile, within the Kyushu world, Li Xiaotian was examining his own physical condition.
His only current deficiency was his inability to fully grasp the power of the Great Dao. He needed to resolve this issue as soon as possible.
In Li Xiaotian's mind, it was as if another void universe existed. A straight, long, heavenly Great Dao stretched from his body into the depths of the cosmos.
His consciousness followed the Great Dao forward, and along the way, his various experiences unfolded like a film on either side of the path.
It was a wondrous sensation. Although it was all illusory, Li Xiaotian felt as if he were truly treading on solid ground.
He had devoured the Great Dao, and the path beneath his feet was the manifestation of its power. Far from being demonic, it was incredibly sacred, like crystal diamonds.
After walking for an unknown duration, Li Xiaotian stopped.
The path had ended, and before him lay the vast void.
His Great Dao was nine thousand meters long, while the invincible realm reached ten thousand meters.
This meant that, in terms of Great Dao power, his current realm was considered late Heavenly level.
Li Xiaotian sat cross-legged at the end of the Great Dao, meditating on his Devouring Great Dao.
What was Devouring? It emerged from the Demonic Dao but was no weaker than it, resembling a new system of Great Dao.
Furthermore, he was the only one treading this Great Dao at present.
It was well known that many powerhouses walked the same Great Dao. For example, the Invincible families and the Sword Pavilion, all followed in the footsteps of their predecessors to forge their Great Daos.
Unlike Li Xiaotian, he walked alone, and everything had to be discovered and explored by himself.
Moreover, although the Demonic Master was his master, his understanding of the Devouring Great Dao far surpassed Li Xiaotian’s, rendering him unable to offer any assistance.
Devouring, Li Xiaotian whispered. From the beginning, he only knew to devour anything that could strengthen him, never considering the underlying principles.
He devoured everything, refining all things for his use.
Furthermore, it seemed his Devouring Great Dao possessed only one heaven-defying function: to devour!
Unlike the Blood Ancestor’s Blood Great Dao, devouring blood to strengthen oneself was merely one aspect. In addition to that, he possessed control over blood, could transform into a sea of blood, and control blood slaves.
And as he reached the invincible realm, Li Xiaotian began to feel that his Devouring Great Dao seemed somewhat weak, not at all like a supreme Great Dao.
This was because invincible powerhouses could also devour any energy to improve themselves, although not as heaven-defying as the Devouring Great Dao, allowing for instantaneous conversion.
Therefore, compared to others, his Great Dao was simply faster at absorbing energy, and his physical recovery was also quicker.
Compared to invincible powerhouses, these advantages seemed negligible.
Li Xiaotian frowned, deducing all possibilities of the Devouring Great Dao.
Time slowly passed. Li Xiaotian entered seclusion for a full month.
During this month, a cultivation craze swept through the Kyushu world, with all living beings cultivating with fervent intensity.
Moreover, the Tongtian Sword Master took it upon himself to pardon the curse placed upon the demon race. Now, the demons and humans of Kyushu were united against external enemies.
If Kyushu fell, the demon race would inevitably be implicated.
Furthermore, the demon race had always been suppressed by the human race since ancient times, and it could be said that they had atoned for the sins of their ancestors.
Of course, while pardoning the demon race, the Tongtian Sword Master also imposed exceptionally strict conditions upon them.
They were forbidden from harming humans arbitrarily, or their entire race would be annihilated!
However, if humans initiated harm against the demon race, the demons were allowed to seek revenge, but only individually, without seeking assistance.
The humans, on the other hand, had no such restrictions.
Furthermore, during battles, the demon race was required to fully cooperate with the human race and not to shirk their responsibilities, lest an entire forbidden zone be wiped out!
It could be said that these conditions sounded extremely unfair to the demon race, but for them, it was already a significant improvement from their previous situation.
The greatest benefit of the Tongtian Sword Master's pardon was that their cultivation realms could now advance.
Previously, due to the curse imposed by the invincible powerhouses of the human race, the strongest demons could only reach the mid-Heavenly level and could not break through further.
This had led to many demons with exceptionally high innate talent ultimately dying of old age.
But now, things were different. They could break through. Even if they couldn't reach the invincible realm, becoming supreme powerhouses would be excellent.
At the very least, with more powerful demons, they would have a greater say in Kyushu. Although they did not expect to achieve equality with humans, it was achievable to gain more preferential treatment from the invincible powerhouses of the human race.
On this day, a powerful aura erupted throughout the heavens and earth, signaling the birth of another invincible being.
It was Gu Zhan, the grandson of the ancient invincible powerhouse Gu, the ancestor of the Gu family!
He was likely one of the longest-living individuals of the same generation as the Tongtian Sword Master.
The Great Dao of the Saber, and the entire Kyushu world was enveloped by the silhouette of a long saber.
A fifth invincible being had appeared!
"We pay homage to the invincible! Congratulations to the invincible!" Celebrations erupted across Kyushu.
With five invincible beings, Kyushu's confidence had grown.
Meanwhile, outside the Kyushu world, three colossal bodies arrived. They encircled the Kyushu world from three directions, then opened their massive mouths, devouring the energy of the Kyushu world with ferocity.
