【My lord, three eighth-tier clansmen have arrived.】

【My lord, three eighth-tier experts from the ancestral land have arrived and have already begun searching for Blood God Sect disciples.】

【My lord, these three eighth-tier experts from the ancestral land ordered us to help them search for Blood God Sect disciples; we had no choice but to cooperate.】

Inside the core area of the five-colored chaotic glow, even the Eight Desolations Golden Token of the Eight Desolations clan could not communicate; now that he had just come out, a large amount of information surged in.

Looking at this information, Xu Jin's heart was as clear as a mirror.

Now, everything was clear.

Previously, the high-level members of the Blood God Sect had been worried about the Eight Desolations Wang Envoy Ju Zhang giving them quotas for the Secret Realm of Breaking Limits, and only for the backbone elites whose cultivation was about to break through.

The high-level members of the Blood God Sect, unable to refuse, racked their brains to patch things up.

They believed that without coercion, the Eight Desolations Royal Court could only use enticement.

They even spared no effort to throw out the Thousand Star Token; high status in the sect and cultivation prospects were all to resist the enticement of the Eight Desolations Royal Court.

They didn't expect that the true method of the Eight Desolations Royal Court was actually coercion.

Of course, the high-level members of the Blood God Sect had also made efforts to prevent coercion.

The Left Protector Fan Kai should still be guarding the entrance of the Secret Realm of Breaking Limits at this time.

So where did these three eighth-tier experts come from?

Spatial teleportation should be impossible.

Because even the communication of the Mandarin Duck Seal was forbidden.

In an instant, Xu Jin thought of the complete Law Power of the Middle World at the core of the Secret Realm of Breaking Limits.

This represented having the Heaven and Earth Authority of a complete Middle World behind it.

It was just like the Heaven and Earth Authority Xu Jin had obtained in the Seven Killings Star Domain.

In an instant, Xu Jin broke out in a cold sweat.

In this Secret Realm of Breaking Limits, he absolutely could not be too reckless.

He must be careful, careful, and even more careful.

Especially regarding the Divine Dao True Intent and Law Power that could alert the controller of this Secret Realm of Breaking Limits.

If the person who held the Heaven and Earth Authority of this place really came over—especially if they held the complete Heaven and Earth Authority—then even if a seventh-tier expert came, they could slay Xu Jin, or even torture him to death!

【Where are you? What is the current situation? What is the situation with the three eighth-tier experts?】 Xu Jin sent a message to Ju Qi.

As for the information from the other captives, Xu Jin did not reply.

These captives were scrambling to send Xu Jin warning messages, not because of loyalty, but because they feared death.

If Xu Jin discovered that eighth-tier experts had come in and they hadn't reported it, he would think they were colluding, and with a single thought, he could finish them off.

Very quickly, Ju Qi sent a message back, and they began to communicate.

In just a few breaths, Xu Jin understood the specific situation clearly.

The ancestral land was where the Golden Pillar aliens lived; it was an incomparably vast Great World.

The three eighth-tier experts had all come from the ancestral land—two early-stage eighth-tier and one mid-stage eighth-tier; they were all elites within the Golden Pillar alien clan, with extraordinary combat power, stronger than ordinary eighth-tier experts.

【How does their combat power compare to Ju Chu Xuan?】 Xu Jin asked one more question to grasp the specific combat power of these three eighth-tier experts.

【Ju Chu Xuan?】

【Does my lord also know Ju Chu Xuan? This Ju Chu Xuan is a top-tier genius in our clan, with superior combat power; when he was an early-stage eighth-tier, he could defeat eighth-tier late-stage clansmen, but he disappeared after entering the Seven Killings Secret Realm.

Comparing combat power, among the three who came, individually, none are Ju Chu Xuan's opponent; even two early-stage eighth-tier experts joining forces are not Ju Chu Xuan's opponent.

But the three of them joining forces should be able to defeat Ju Chu Xuan.】

【Understood.】

【Why does my lord ask about this Ju Chu Xuan? Does he know Ju Chu Xuan's whereabouts?】 Ju Qi, who was accompanying one of the eighth-tier experts to search for seventh-tier Blood God Sect disciples, asked curiously.

【I was just weighing the combat power of these few eighth-tier experts; Ju Chu Xuan was slain by me.】

The moment Ju Qi saw this message while flying, he shuddered violently, his flight even stalling for an instant, causing the mid-stage eighth-tier clansman in front to turn around and check.

Ju Chu Xuan was the existence with the strongest combat power and highest potential among the previous wave of clansmen who descended.

Normally, after the Eight Desolations Wang Envoy Ju Zhang broke through to the ninth tier, he was going to focus on cultivating this one.

Yet he went missing after entering the Seven Killings Secret Realm.

The Eight Desolations Wang Envoy Ju Zhang had always firmly believed that Ju Chu Xuan was not dead, but had obtained the inheritance of the Seven Killings True Lord and was practicing in seclusion within the Seven Killings Secret Realm, and that when the time came, he would return.

He didn't expect that he was already dead!

And he was slain by the powerhouse who had captured him.

Then just how strong was this person?

For a time, Ju Qi felt somewhat fortunate—fortunate that his decision was correct and wise.

【Report your location to me.】

【Okay.】

In just an instant, Ju Qi extinguished the last bit of luck remaining in his heart.

Before this, Ju Qi had been fantasizing that if the three eighth-tier experts from the ancestral land could encounter the person who controlled his Divine Soul, they might be able to slay him by surprise, and he would be completely liberated.

He wouldn't have to be controlled by others at every moment, wouldn't have to worry about being discovered by his clansmen, and wouldn't have to live such days of fear and trepidation.

He even thought about plotting to bring the three eighth-tier experts and Xu Jin together.

Now, however, he gave up instantly.

Being able to slay Ju Chu Xuan meant that even if these three eighth-tier experts joined forces, they would be unable to slay Xu Jin in a short time.

As long as they couldn't slay him in a short time, Xu Jin, who controlled their Divine Souls, would order them to besiege him.

At that time, they would fall into a dilemma.

They would either have to expose themselves or die.

Xu Jin learned from Ju Qi that the three eighth-tier experts were currently targeting the seventh-tier ninth-layer peak and seventh-tier late-stage elites of the Blood God Sect; to improve operational efficiency, they had split into two groups.

Two early-stage eighth-tier experts were in one group with several seventh-tier aliens, and that mid-stage eighth-tier expert was in another group with several seventh-tier aliens.

This lineup was enough to form a crushing situation for any seventh-tier Blood God Sect elite.

Ju Qi was following the mid-stage eighth-tier clan elite Ju Feng, who had already subdued one seventh-tier ninth-layer peak Blood God Sect elite.

At this moment, they were searching for the next one.

Because they were seventh-tier ninth-layer peak experts, they were currently searching in a ring shape in the four-colored chaotic glow area.

Although it was difficult to distinguish directions, under Ju Qi's constant guidance, Xu Jin quickly found a group of people.

The mid-stage eighth-tier Ju Feng was leading the team, with four seventh-tier ninth-layer peak aliens—two of whom were Xu Jin's captives—and they were also carrying one seventh-tier ninth-layer Blood God Sect disciple.

The next instant, Xu Jin greeted them openly.

The first moment, Ju Feng discovered Xu Jin.

"A sixth-tier ninth-layer Blood God Sect disciple?"

The moment he sensed the aura clearly, Ju Feng hesitated; the order he had received was to coerce those disciples whose Divine Souls were controlled by the Blood God Sect to surrender as much as possible, write a letter of surrender, and at the same time confess a secret within the Blood God Sect.

In situations where Divine Souls could not be controlled, this was the only way.

And the Eight Desolations Royal Court would also promise to help them lift the Divine Soul control and provide a portion of eighth-tier cultivation resources.

Under the dual means of coercion and enticement, the first seventh-tier ninth-layer peak Blood God Sect disciple chose to surrender in the face of death, promising to act as a nail for the Eight Desolations Royal Court inside the Blood God Sect.

However, this time Ju Feng had come under orders to subdue Blood God Sect disciples in the Secret Realm of Breaking Limits, which was only the first part of the order.

The second part of the order was to take advantage of the Secret Realm of Breaking Limits opened with massive resources to cross the spatial barrier between this Great World and the Middle World, reaching the Eight Desolations Continent directly to serve as reinforcements under the Eight Desolations Wang Envoy Ju Zhang.

He had come for his future. Subduing a few more Blood God Sect disciples was his merit.

So seeing the sixth-tier ninth-layer Xu Jin, Ju Feng wanted to blast him to death directly, but after thinking about it, he said to the seventh-tier ninth-layer peak Blood God Sect disciple he had just subdued, "Go, persuade him.

If he is willing to surrender, I will count it as a great merit for you.

If he does not surrender, kill him yourself."

That seventh-tier ninth-layer peak Blood God Sect disciple understood immediately that this was his pledge of allegiance.

But it was only a sixth-tier ninth-layer peak disciple; surrendering was better, as he would have a companion, and if he didn't surrender, he would just kill him.

Upon receiving the order, starlight moved, and he rushed toward Xu Jin.

"Which hall are you from?"

Boom!

Almost the moment Ju Feng's expression changed drastically, five-colored Five-Element lightning had already been fired, directly blasting this seventh-tier ninth-layer peak Blood God Sect disciple into ashes.

When Ju Qi witnessed this scene with his own eyes again, he was still incomparably shocked.

Instantly killing a seventh-tier ninth-layer peak cultivator with one strike—even the mid-stage eighth-tier Ju Feng couldn't do that!

Almost simultaneously, the mid-stage eighth-tier Ju Feng realized the strength of this sixth-tier ninth-layer cultivator before him; his aura surfaced, and as his Star Tower appeared, he shouted, "Everyone..."

Suddenly, massive Divine Soul fluctuations flashed by, and Ju Feng clutched his head and screamed, blood spraying from his seven orifices simultaneously.

Divine Soul attack—Thought Blade Explosion.

Whoosh!

The moment the terrifying sonic boom sounded, Ju Feng's head had already been blasted into a watermelon by Xu Jin's Yellow Dragon Sword.

Five-fold Triple Liushuo.

His Original Spirit escaped, and the look of terror on his face turned into despair in an instant.

Because the moment Ju Feng's Original Spirit escaped, five-colored Divine Lightning crashed down on his head.

His mid-stage fifth-tier Original Spirit was directly blasted into fragments.

Boom!

Almost simultaneously, cold ice star power poured toward Xu Jin.

It was another seventh-tier ninth-layer peak alien who had reacted extremely quickly and followed Ju Feng's order to attack Xu Jin.

Xu Jin, supporting his Fish Screen Jin Zhong, didn't even move; he stood in place and took the full-strength strike of this seventh-tier ninth-layer peak alien head-on.

The Fish Screen Jin Zhong only sent out a ripple.

The next instant, dark green vines exploded instantly, then drilled into the body of this seventh-tier ninth-layer peak powerhouse in thousands of strands, before exploding out from within his body.

But every strand of starlight that exploded out was stained with blood or even internal organs.

Special Star Art: Green Shadow Thousand Scorches.

Such a tragic sight made the other seventh-tier ninth-layer peak alien react, and he turned and fled without the slightest hesitation.

However, his path was blocked by Ju Qi and another companion.

"You..."

"Brother, if you surrender, you still have a path to live..."

This seventh-tier ninth-layer alien was stunned.

He had never expected that two companions—especially one who was a Golden Pillar alien, a noble among them with high status—would actually surrender to this terrifying sixth-tier ninth-layer peak alien before him.

With someone appearing to speak from experience, and facing the choice between life and death,

this person naturally made a very correct choice.

He chose to open his Divine Soul and hand over all the items in his Sumeru space.

A few breaths later, Xu Jin pulled out all the Sumeru spaces of that seventh-tier expert and the eighth-tier Ju Feng; the harvest made Xu Jin happy.

Eighth-tier experts were indeed very wealthy.

There was a sixth-tier elixir that could directly boost cultivation.

A sixth-tier elixir that could directly boost cultivation, if nourished, would have an effect even stronger than a seventh-tier Pure Pearl.

There were also two fifth-tier Divine Soul elixirs.

And the seventh-tier Pure Pearls that Xu Jin needed most were there in abundance—five of them, and twenty sixth-tier Pure Pearls.

More importantly, because he had used a Divine Soul star art to launch a sneak attack, the eighth-tier Ju Feng's Seven-Star Spirit Armor hadn't even been fully activated before Xu Jin blasted his head off.

This allowed the Ju Feng's Seven-Star Spirit Armor to be preserved completely.

Although it was only a seventh-tier low-grade Seven-Star Spirit Armor, Seven-Star Spirit Armors were precious and very rare.

Many eighth-tier experts in the current world didn't have Seven-Star Spirit Armor to protect their bodies.

Harvesting one like this was excellent; Xu Jin didn't need to use it himself, but it was great for others to use.

On the other side, the seventh-tier ninth-layer peak alien who had been persuaded by Ju Qi was already kneeling halfway there, completely opening his Divine Soul, waiting for Xu Jin to control him.

Xu Jin still used the Thousand-Strand Imprint.

It took a full two quarters of an hour to finish.

Xu Jin then had these three lead the way to search for the other two early-stage eighth-tier experts.

When they tracked them to the edge of the four-colored chaotic glow area, Xu Jin directly ordered these three to step into the three-colored chaotic glow area.

Within half an hour of these three stepping in, each of them encountered two or three three-colored phantom spirits.

Xu Jin had them slay the phantom spirits, but the three strands of Heaven and Earth Star Will they obtained after slaying the three-colored phantom spirits were taken away by Xu Jin and thrown directly into the Law Stars on his Arena Platform.

Xu Jin could not directly collect the complete Law Power of the Middle World in the core area of the Secret Realm of Breaking Limits.

If he collected it directly, he would inevitably be discovered by the controller.

But Xu Jin had discovered in the process of comprehending ninth-tier star patterns that this Law Power could be nibbled away.

While comprehending ninth-tier star patterns, he discovered that the Law Power under the jurisdiction of the Divine Dao True Intent was constantly decreasing and constantly recovering.

The total amount didn't change much, but it would be less by a few parts at times, and recover by a few parts at others.

Combining this with his own experience of traveling all the way, Xu Jin understood.

Manifesting new phantom spirits, whether they were single-colored or dual-colored, would consume this Law Power, but the consumption was very small.

After the slaying was finished, other people—and they didn't have the ability—would not directly forcibly collect the Heaven and Earth Star Will left behind after the phantom spirits were slain.

They would only activate it to comprehend and improve their cultivation.

After the comprehension ended, these Heaven and Earth Star Will would return to the Law Power at the very core.

The entire Secret Realm of Breaking Limits formed a great cycle that repeated itself.

A complete Law Power of a Middle World, under the augmentation of a strand of Divine Dao True Intent and under the clever refining of the holder, turned into a Secret Realm of Breaking Limits that could continuously and batch-produce seventh-tier and eighth-tier powerhouses.

In the constant cycle, as long as the Law Power was not taken away, it would not be consumed.

And the Divine Dao True Intent consumed by breaking through to the seventh and eighth tiers was extremely, extremely little.

In this way, one strand of Divine Dao True Intent could allow this Secret Realm of Breaking Limits to continue operating many times, enough to cultivate a massive number of seventh-tier and eighth-tier powerhouses for the Eight Desolations aliens.

But now, Xu Jin could take the opportunity to nibble it away.

Because in essence, a complete Law Power of a Middle World was condensed from a massive amount of Heaven and Earth Star Will.

And the Heaven and Earth Star Will power carried by those phantom spirits was split off from that Law Power; when the breakthrough was finished, it would be taken back!

Now, it was directly taken away by Xu Jin.

This was the plan Xu Jin had come up with to collect this complete Law Power of the Middle World—nibbling!

At this very moment, it had been thoroughly verified and succeeded!

Since it had succeeded, Xu Jin would have plenty of time to execute this plan next.

The next instant, Xu Jin led the few seventh-tier experts and searched for the location of the two eighth-tier aliens.
