Chapter 473
【Brother Xiao Yan: So the Lord of Heart Demons is dead like this?】
【Pang Bo: What else could happen? You all know the group owner's strength—when has he ever let us down?】
【Ye Chen: I wonder who's stronger—the Lord of Heart Demons or the Source Elder?】
【Han Li: It should be the Source Elder! Though he is a Primordial Immortal, his great array grants him base power surpassing even a Primordial God's divine force, not to mention his myriad cultivation methods—he must be stronger than the Lord of Heart Demons!】
【Brother Xiao Yan: Correct! The Source Elder is one of the Black Lotus Divine Emperor's divine generals; his techniques are among the finest even among peak Primordial Gods!】
【Brother Xiao Yan: The Lord of Heart Demons's strength is decent, but he's a native—he never mastered many powerful methods!】
……
While the group members chatted idly…
On another front, upon witnessing the Lord of Heart Demons slain so effortlessly by Lu Qingshan, the entire third-tier void fell silent.
Neither the Nüwa faction nor the Wu Jian faction stirred a sound.
After all, according to the Lord of Heart Demons's own words, he had secretly orchestrated this cataclysm.
As the former king of the Wu Jian Chaos World, his name had once struck terror into all.
At his first appearance, even the Nüwa faction, which held overwhelming advantage, trembled with dread.
Yet no one expected the Lord of Heart Demons to be slain so easily by the Lord of All Worlds!
"How could this happen?"
In the Wu Jian faction, the Wu Jian Divine King stared blankly at the scene before him.
Earlier, when he saw the Lord of Heart Demons break free from the Heavenly Dao, his heart had burned with excitement.
Though nominally the leader of the Wu Jian faction, he had always been overruled by Feng Mo, while the other elders paid him no mind.
With the Lord of Heart Demons freed, he would naturally resume control of the Wu Jian faction—and then he could truly wield power under the Lord's shadow.
Later, when Lu Qingshan deliberately confronted the Lord of Heart Demons, the Wu Jian Divine King had been delighted.
After all, Lu Qingshan had once attacked him personally—if the Lord of Heart Demons could kill him, it would be a blessing.
Yet how could he have imagined that his supposed protector, the Lord of Heart Demons, had been slain outright by Lu Qingshan?
"Where did this Lord of All Worlds even come from?"
The Wu Jian Divine King now trembled with fear, subtly edging closer toward Feng Mo's direction.
That way, if Lu Qingshan turned on him, he could immediately beg Feng Mo for aid!
"This is…"
On the other side, inside the dark-gold fortress, Ci Xiu the Great Demon God and the Blade Lord both paled upon seeing Lu Qingshan slay the Lord of Heart Demons with two strikes.
The Lord of Heart Demons's strength was already formidable among peak Primordial Gods—especially his survival ability. Even if both of them unleashed their full power, they could not match him.
Yet now, such a mighty Primordial God had fallen into the hands of the Lord of All Worlds!
"The Lord of All Worlds's strength is nearly at the World Realm level!"
Ci Xiu's heart shuddered: "Among all the Primordial Gods and Primordial Immortals I've encountered in the Chaos, this Lord of All Worlds ranks among the top three!"
"Go! Leave now—unless we go now, we may never escape!"
"I just fought a peak Primordial God nearing the World Realm?"
Beside him, the Blade Lord was also stunned—he had indeed clashed with Lu Qingshan for a long time.
Whoosh!
The dark-gold fortress instantly became a streak of light, shooting into the endless Chaos.
Though the dark-gold fortress departed, it left behind two divine force avatars of Ci Xiu and the Blade Lord.
Both were deeply curious—what scheme did this immensely powerful Lord of All Worlds harbor?
……
Meanwhile, within the Wu Jian faction, the Source Elder also stared fearfully toward Lu Qingshan's direction.
"Thank heaven! Thank heaven I didn't act!"
The Source Elder silently rejoiced: "I never imagined this Lord of All Worlds was so terrifying—even my true body here would not be his match!"
"Thank goodness I held my patience and didn't strike rashly—I've escaped another disaster!"
"But after this cataclysm, I'll have to follow Feng Mo into the Chaos—later, I'll need another plan to slip away alone!"
With this thought, the Source Elder's mind settled.
His purpose in remaining within the Three Realms was, of course, the World Heart.
After all, even an ordinary World Heart was a treasure prized by World Gods and Chaos Immortals—but this one formed from the collision of two Chaos Worlds? Its value would be far greater.
Unfortunately, during the ancient Great Annihilation, he had missed his chance—and now, this cataclysm brought yet another variable: Lu Qingshan.
……
On another front…
"Lord of All Worlds, Sui Ren Shi, the Three Pure Ones, the Buddha…"
The Demon Lord stood in the void, gazing across at Lu Qingshan and the great ones of the Nüwa faction: "By now, the situation is clear."
"This cataclysm was ignited by the Lord of Heart Demons to escape the Heavenly Dao. Now that he is dead, and both sides have suffered heavy losses, the burden on the Three Realms has lessened—could we not call a truce?"
"This…"
Upon hearing Feng Mo's words, the Nüwa faction's experts felt deep reluctance.
After all, both sides had lost many in this battle—they were unwilling to let the Wu Jian faction remain in the Three Realms.
Yet the Lord of Heart Demons had been slain by Lu Qingshan—and Lu Qingshan was a Chaos outsider; they still could not fathom his true intentions.
Moreover, Lu Qingshan's displayed strength far surpassed that of the Lord of Heart Demons—if he harbored some scheme, stopping him would be nearly impossible.
Thus, they could not press the fight further.
"Lord of All Worlds—what do you say?" The Three Pure Ones, still commanding the Nüwa's Heavenly Mending Array, turned to Lu Qingshan at once.
Hearing these words, the other great powers of the Nüwa camp quickly turned their heads to look at Lu Qingshan.
Although they could not fully trust Lu Qingshan, before he displayed obvious hostility, they were still willing to respect him.
"No rush!"
Lu Qingshan looked far away at the Old Man Yuan hiding within the Wujian Gate camp, then smiled and said, "Heart-Mind General, you have watched the show for so long; now it is time to reveal yourself, is it not?"
Hearing these words, the powerful ones of both the Nüwa camp and the Wujian Gate camp all changed color drastically.
For there was no such powerful figure as the Heart-Mind General in the Three Realms, and since Lu Qingshan said this, the other party was naturally a Chaos Alien Race of extremely powerful strength.
Subsequently, the countless powerful ones in the void all turned their heads to look toward the direction where Old Man Yuan was.
And after Old Man Yuan heard Lu Qingshan call out the name Heart-Mind General, his heart was also startled sharply.
It must be known that his true body was the Heart-Mind General; only his second primal spirit had come to this Chaos World.
Moreover, his second primal spirit had originally entered the Pangu Chaos World while severely injured, and then successfully possessed Old Man Yuan.
By all rights, after such a tortuous experience, even those who knew his true body would definitely not recognize his identity upon seeing him.
Furthermore, in Old Man Yuan's memories, his true body should never have encountered a powerful figure like Lu Qingshan.
Precisely for this reason, after being recognized by Lu Qingshan, Old Man Yuan was extremely shocked.
It was just that now that his identity had been exposed by Lu Qingshan, he naturally could not continue to hide.
"Lord of the Ten Thousand Worlds!"
Old Man Yuan was seen lightly waving the whisk in his hand, then stepped forward two paces and said, "Have we met somewhere? I wonder how you recognized my identity?"
And after hearing Old Man Yuan's words, the other powerful ones around were also each deeply alarmed.
"It really is this Old Man Yuan?"
"Heart-Mind General? Could it be that Old Man Yuan has been possessed by a Chaos Alien Race?"
"It is actually the Heart-Mind General under the seat of the Black Lotus Emperor!"
The Thorn Cultivation Great Demon God, who had left an avatar to watch the battle on the side, exclaimed with surprise, "It seems there is truly a spectacle to watch this time!"
"Hahaha!"
Lu Qingshan looked toward the direction where Old Man Yuan was, then smiled and said, "Heart-Mind General, you could perhaps deceive others by possessing Old Man Yuan, but deceiving me is impossible!"
Lu Qingshan naturally would not tell the other party that he recognized the identity because he was familiar with the plot, but continued speaking, "Since I have finally encountered you, Heart-Mind General, naturally I must witness your strength!"
"Of course, if your strength is not strong enough, you will only perish in my hands like the Heart-Demon Lord!"
Hearing Lu Qingshan's words, the Heart-Mind General who had possessed Old Man Yuan immediately changed color drastically.
