Chapter 282: Heaven's Dao Slays!

"I'll go meet the Heaven's Dao!"

Chen Zhangsheng nodded, flicked his sleeve, and a wooden puppet flew out, following Lu Xuan as he flew over.

Lu Xuan directly tore open the Void, pursuing the aura of the Heaven's Dao.

Not long after.

Lu Xuan stood firm in the depths of the Void, seeing a girl in green robes being surrounded by three Nine Star Great Emperors.

The aura of the Heaven's Dao comes from this girl in green robes!

Lu Xuan blinked slightly, could she be the incarnation of the Heaven's Dao?

Actually, she's just a little girl.

The green-robed girl was delicately carved like jade, holding a strange stone only the size of a fist, yet Lu Xuan sensed a trace of the Lower Origin Star Core's aura from it.

It was an immeasurably vast and surging power, like a sealed sea far surpassing the Nine Star Emperor Realm, unexpectedly appearing in the Emperor Realm region.

At that moment.

The three Nine Star Great Emperors coldly stared at the girl, killing intent flashing: "Hand over the Heaven-Earth Strange Object you hold, or die!"

The green-robed girl patted the stone with her small hand; it flashed with brilliant divine light, then she shoved it into her mouth and swallowed it!

Seeing this, the faces of the three Nine Star Great Emperors turned icy cold.

This strange stone contains power surpassing the Emperor Realm; if they obtained it, they could break through to Half-Step Supreme, yet now this little girl has swallowed it.

"You're courting death!"

The three Nine Star Great Emperors struck directly; their terrifying, unparalleled power surged like an abyss and sea above the Void, as if the sea overturned and stars fell.

At that moment, the green-robed girl suddenly crouched, drawing circles on the ground with her small hand: "You want to kill me? I'll draw a circle to curse you!"

As she drew a circle, an abrupt anomaly arose in heaven and earth!

"Boom!"

"Void Rending!"

"Space warped!"

The power of this world's laws seemed to freeze in an instant, myriad phenomena continually unfolding: vast chaos, eternal starry sky, and heavenly water hanging high.

In an instant, the three Nine Star Great Emperors' terrifying killing intent was annihilated, like wind over grass, overwhelmed by a towering force, utterly insignificant.

They still tried to mobilize power, but it showed no effect; the Emperor's Dao patterns vanished, the meridians in their bodies, even imperial blood, ceased flowing, all bones seemed to congeal, and their Dao foundations grew dim.

The three Nine Star Great Emperors stood frozen in place.

What kind of power is this?

Their "Dao" seems to be drifting away from them!

But how could this be possible?

They could attain the Dao under the heavens and earth of Nan Huang, receiving heaven-earth validation, having reached the pinnacle of the Emperor Realm path—how could their Dao be annihilated?

Thinking this, their faces turned grim.

This green-robed girl is definitely not a Great Emperor!

She is above the Great Emperor!

What terrifying existence have they provoked?

"Senior, spare my life..."

"This matter is our fault..."

The three Nine Star Great Emperors wanted to speak, but no sound came; they felt an odd sensation, as if they were not tolerated by this world.

In an instant, they lowered their gaze to their bodies, every hair standing on end, hearts trembling with fear.

Their bodies turned into countless "motes," like dust drifting in the wind—a power that completely transcends the Emperor Realm.

After a moment.

A gentle breeze blew, and the three Nine Star Great Emperors instantly vanished from heaven and earth.

Lu Xuan blinked slightly.

Is this the power of the Heaven's Dao?

Life and death, granted and taken, decided by a single thought!

Soon.

The green-robed girl looked at Lu Xuan; beside him, the wooden puppet fashioned from Chen Zhangsheng said, "It's somewhat terrifying!"

Lu Xuan remained calm, his expression light and carefree.

"Boom!"

In the span of a breath, the green-robed girl's figure suddenly vanished from her spot and appeared beside Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan began to scrutinize the green-robed girl.

Her cheeks were delicately carved like jade, her features small and exquisite yet flawless; beneath her green robe, her petite figure hinted at a curve, her chest slightly raised, her lotus‑white arms like jade‑carved snow clasped before her, her slender, fair calves crystal‑clear, flowing with Dao and rhythm.

She was also sizing up Lu Xuan, her little canine teeth grinding audibly.

"Hey hey hey, have you looked enough?"

The green-robed girl suddenly spoke, stamping her foot hard, showing a displeased expression.

Lu Xuan gave a faint smile.

The Heaven's Dao of Nan Huang appears harmless, even somewhat cute.

Then she extended her tender little hand toward Lu Xuan, as if asking for something, then remained silent.

A moment of silence.

Lu Xuan asked, "What are you doing?"

The green-robed girl blinked her big eyes, glaring at Lu Xuan, saying, "I want the star core in your hand."

Lu Xuan's face twitched.

This is too direct, right?

Is this the attitude of someone begging?

He said, "Not giving."

The atmosphere in the field stalled.

Chen Zhangsheng coughed dryly twice at the side, "Cough cough... Master, why not eat first?"

Lu Xuan nodded, looking at the girl in green clothes, "Together?"

He was about to leap into the air, the girl in green clothes didn't speak, blinking her clever big eyes, and followed behind Lu Xuan.

Soon.

The three arrived at the place of the Dao Xuan Iron Pot.

Chen Zhangsheng placed the steaming food on the stone table transformed by Dao patterns.

The pot contained spirit meat, giant pig ribs, giant lamb skewers...

The girl in green clothes also sat down.

Lu Xuan asked, "What's your name?"

The girl in green clothes had lively eyes, took a bite of the food, and said, "I have no name."

Lu Xuan stopped speaking and focused on eating.

Chen Zhangsheng wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say.

Heaven and earth were silent.

A moment of stillness.

"Still pretty tasty." the girl in green clothes said, then she added, "However, after putting so many heavenly treasures in, even a stone would become tasty."

Chen Zhangsheng: "..."

Not long after.

Lu Xuan finished eating, lay down on the Yan Chuang, began to rest, and threw the girl in green clothes to Chen Zhangsheng.

Chen Zhangsheng looked at Lu Xuan; he is an honest person, not good with words.

After a moment.

The girl in green clothes finished eating, came to Lu Xuan's Yan Chuang, wrinkled her jade nose, and loudly said, "Your guts are too big!"

Lu Xuan looked innocent, "What did I do?"

The girl in green clothes ground her sparkling little tiger teeth, saying, "You're truly invincible."

Saying that, she directly reached out her little hand to search Lu Xuan's body; in a moment, she had already rummaged through all his storage rings.

"Where did you hide the star core?"

Lu Xuan countered, "What do you want it for?"

The girl in green clothes wrinkled her jade nose and said, "This realm is called Taichu; this world is ill, just like cultivators, needing to replenish strength. After five regions experienced eight openings of the Supreme Path, this realm has consumed too much power and is now at its limit."

Lu Xuan slightly furrowed his brows and said, "I see."

But he did not take out the star core from the system space.

The girl in green clothes suddenly grabbed Lu Xuan's arm, bit his hand with her little tiger teeth, her big eyes watery, looking innocent, "If you won't give it, forget it. I'm leaving."

Saying that, she turned and left, but walked very slowly.

One step, two steps...

She was waiting.

She was waiting for Lu Xuan to call her back.

But it was useless!

Lu Xuan simply did not call her back.

In the next instant.

The girl in green clothes let out a soft hum, the sound of grinding her teeth again, "I'm going to look for heavenly treasures."

This time she really left, vanishing without a trace in an instant.

Lu Xuan: "..."

Chen Zhangsheng gazed deeply, "What the Heavenly Dao said is not false; this realm is indeed somewhat withered. This opening of the Supreme Path might be the last."

Lu Xuan slightly startled, "Old Three, have you dealt with the Heavenly Dao before?"

Chen Zhangsheng sighed, "Actually, there was once an agreement."

Lu Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

He thought silently, "How many things is Old Three hiding from me?"

Chen Zhangsheng sighed, "Master, the agreement from back then, I have sworn a Heavenly Dao oath not to speak of it; you will know when the time comes."

Lu Xuan smiled and did not continue questioning.

Imperial Realm region.

In the far reaches, Xuanji Holy Lord's jade feet moved gracefully, divine radiance flowing across her as she traversed the void; the mysterious and forbidden powers around her grew stronger, her speed extremely swift as she searched for the traces of ancient great medicines.

Within her inner world, the two forbidden powers were nearly reaching her limit.

Xuanji Holy Lord had inscribed Dao patterns in multiple regions; whenever abundant vitality appeared, these Dao patterns would sense it.

Several days later.

Suddenly, Xuanji Holy Lord Bai Li's beautiful eyes slightly furrowed, looking toward a direction, murmuring to herself, "The Dao patterns there have been activated."
