Translator: Fate Translation Checker: Silavin Made from unknown materials, the divine furnace was bright red and radiated with crimson divine light. Wisps of blazing flames continuously flared outwards, incessantly burning the screaming and rolling figure inside the furnace. “Please! Leave some of my Soul intact, and I swear I will never cause trouble for you again. In fact, I will never cultivate again. Please have mercy and let me live!” The figure was so weak that he could barely maintain his Human Form. Moreover, his blurry face was distorted with pain and agony. Despite everything, he constantly screamed and begged in an attempt to survive. As one of the strongest and youngest prodigies in the Zhuo Clan, his future was bright and unlimited. Furthermore, he had an Ancestor who not only cherished him greatly but also served as a Heavenly Elder in the Clan. If everything had gone smoothly, he would definitely have grown to the point where he could rival the Elders in strength. He might not necessarily qualify to become a Heavenly Elder, but he was bound to become one of the mainstays of the Zhuo Clan. However, he was now about to perish here. The last traces of his Soul would soon be burned away by the Eternal True Flame. His body crackled and hissed under the flickering flames, transforming into wisps of black smoke. The figure sitting cross-legged on the dirt-yellow crystal simply ignored the commotion in front of her and concentrated on nursing her wounds. Unfortunately, the horrifying wounds remained a ghastly sight. Blood kept pouring out from her wounds, so much so that the surroundings were stained bright red. “I expected no less from one of the greatest prodigies in the Zhuo Clan. I’ve certainly paid a heavy price just to kill you. In any case, there’s no need to beg for mercy from me. Did you ever stop to think about today when you were hunting me down to steal my Treasure from me? Besides, the Zhuo Clan is simply reaping their just desserts for what they have done.” She looked at the screaming figure inside the Eternal Divine Furnace, who was about to be burned to nothingness. Nevertheless, her voice was very calm and flat. As one of the greatest prodigies of the Zhuo Clan, he was bound to have many protective methods. It was only thanks to the special features of the Eternal Divine Furnace that she managed to trick the Heavenly Elder and hide from her probing efforts earlier. Be that as it may, she would eventually be found out if she did not get rid of Zhuo Tianyin as soon as possible. That would only cause more unnecessary trouble for herself. After all, the prodigies of the Zhuo Clan often had special marks on their bodies that could be tracked. The Eternal Divine Furnace might be powerful, but it was by no means something that she could fully control with her current strength. Every moment of usage was consuming a terrible amount of her Qi. Therefore, she immediately waved her hand and activated the Eternal Divine Furnace to obliterate every last traces of Zhuo Tianyin’s Soul, without any regard for her wounds “Argh…” The figure inside the Eternal Divine Furnace wailed in agony. Wisps of black smoke wafted out from the furnace and quickly dissipated into the void. One of the greatest prodigies of the Zhuo Clan vanished from existence just like that, never to reappear in the world again. If some of his Soul remained and the Elders of the Zhuo Clan took action to perform various Heaven-Defying methods to check through his future reincarnations, it would not be impossible to resurrect him and bring him back to life. Unfortunately, the Eternal Divine Furnace had extremely special properties that could burn the Soul completely into ashes so that nothing remained behind. All traces of him had vanished from every existing Spacetime. After that, the figure raised her hand. The Eternal Divine Furnace transformed into a stream of light and flew into her forehead. It was only then did she breathe a sigh of relief. Nevertheless, she seemed to have caused her injuries to worsen. She frowned deeply from the pain and steadily breathed in cold air to soothe herself. “The backlash is terrifying. It’s fortunate that the Eternal Divine Furnace has a special ability that can help me offset most of the backlash. Otherwise, it would have been hard for me to completely annihilate him.” Shaking her head, she took out numerous healing medical herbs from the storage space and stuffed them into her mouth to continue recovering from her wounds. This place resembled a solidified sandbank in all directions. Strong gusts of yellow wind would spiral into the sky from time to time, causing the entire area to become hazy. It was only possible to see clearly for a few dozen metres at most. This figure was a young woman who looked to be in her twenties. Her facial features were delicate, and her figure was slim. Her outward appearance did not seem much different from typical Humans. Moreover, she was wearing a rather ordinary dress made from coarse cloth. Nevertheless, one would discover that her eyes were actually dark gold upon a closer look. They resembled Golden Dragon pupils, flickering with eternal radiance. This young woman was Mu Yan, and she was not a member of the Zhuo Clan. While recuperating from her wounds, she considered her next move with a frown on her face. She had not only taken a huge risk to kill Zhuo Tianyin in the Zhuo Clan’s territory but also enraged the Heavenly Elder behind him. Her actions were so audacious that the Zhuo Clan’s Heavenly Elder issued the All-Directional Universe Prohibition Order. Consequently, what she had to face next would be the full-scale search and pursuit by the Zhuo Clan. “Before that, I should keep a low profile and remain cautious. I refuse to believe that the All-Directional Universe Prohibition Order will never be lifted. After that, I will slowly settle this grudge with the Zhuo Clan.” she muttered to herself. At the time, she had been forced to kill Zhuo Tianyin. Now that the situation had reached a foregone conclusion, there was no point worrying about it anymore. “Heh heh… I’ve identified your aura.” At this moment, the void where Zhuo Tianyin’s figure was completely destroyed suddenly exploded. An eerie and sinister sneer came from the void. Zhuo Tianyin’s figure, that was destroyed earlier, faintly reappeared and gathered together again. A strange black line emerged among the remains. Behind that black line was a boundless void, and a horrifying shadow stood in the void. The figure seemed to be sneering and looking in this direction from across the endless void. It was that Heavenly Elder. The abilities of a Dao Realm expert were overwhelmingly powerful, spanning countless Spacetimes. They were generally beyond an ordinary person’s imagination. “Shit…” Mu Yan was recuperating from her wounds when her expression drastically changed. Fear and horror immediately flooded her heart. Then, she hastily pulled out an ancient rune. The area in front of her suddenly split open, and her figure crossed a distance of several hundred kilometres in an instant. As soon as she vanished from the spot, the entire area silently collapsed and disintegrated. A horrifying hand reached out from the void, so powerful that the galaxy was instantaneously obliterated. “You sure ran away fast. To think you have such a rare and precious ancient talisman, it seems your background isn’t that simple. But, I’ve already identified your aura. You won’t be able to escape. “Zhuo Clan, I order you to kill this woman! If you can capture her alive, then come and find me. I will reward you well.” In the distance, Zhuo Wu was incredulous that she could not obliterate the insolent Junior who dared to kill her descendant in one move. A moment later, the sneer on her face deepened. She had already identified that person’s aura, so there was nothing to be concerned about. In her opinion, this was merely a game of cat and mouse now. The further the other party ran, the greater their despair would be. Only by experiencing such despair would they be able to pay the painful price of killing her descendant. Using that person’s aura, she wrote down her decree and displayed her words throughout the surrounding Great Universes in the Zhuo Clan. Thus, every members of the Zhuo Clan would now move to hunt down and capture this criminal alive. The universes in the vicinity immediately fell into uproar. Countless members of the Zhuo Clan were shocked that a Heavenly Elder had personally issued a decree and offered a reward for the death of the murderer. At the same time, many of them swiftly perceived the fluctuations of the aura and charged out from their respective Clans. They then transformed into streams of divine light and crossed the starry sky in pursuit. The reward offered by a Heavenly Elder would definitely be amazing, so they were extremely excited. “I will give you a taste of the world’s cruellest torture and make you despair for killing my descendant.” The look in Zhuo Wu’s eyes was cold and ruthless. Boom! Millions of kilometres away, galaxies after galaxies exploded and crumbled to pieces. Mu Yan coughed blood. The wounds on her body were frightening. Activating the Offering Space Talisman, she moved at a high speed and crossed a distance of several hundred kilometres in an instant to arrive at another galaxy. Be that as it may, the pursuit of someone equivalent to a Dao Realm expert was terrifying. The entire Spacetime was enveloped in her aura, and the Star Territory where she was located instantly collapsed like the ones before. In the blink of an eye, the Star Territory had silently disintegrated until nothing alive remained. A horrifying and chilling murderous intent persistently followed her like maggots clinging to a rotten bone, trying to block all her escape routes. It was so overwhelming that the universe was completely shrouded. Those living in the universes nearby felt their Souls trembling. It felt as though they had been frozen in place, so they were filled with a sense of horror. “Unbelievable. This is just her killing intent. It doesn’t even count as her taking action, yet it is already so terrifying. “As expected, the Zhuo Clan’s Heavenly Elder is the most powerful being in the world. That is not a level that I can reach at my current strength. Destroying everyone in a Great Universe is just a pipe dream.” Mu Yan coughed out blood again. Even though she possessed countless exotic Treasures, they could not withstand the burden of those attacks. It was her first time confronting the power of a Heavenly Elder directly. If it were anybody else in the same cultivation realm, they would have been annihilated in an instant. They could never have fled as far as her. In any case, she activated the extremely precious Offering Space Talisman once more. Spacetime became blurry, and a passage opened up in front of her. She hurriedly stepped forward to escape. For a moment, the stars in the sky shone dazzlingly bright and the world turned upside down. However, the terrifying murderous intent arrived just as she took a step forward and swept across the entire universe. The space passageway exploded instantaneously as a result. Her figure trembled violently, and her horrific injuries from earlier became even more frightening. Her entire body was covered in blood, so much so that it was impossible to see her face clearly. Moreover, she fell out of the passageway before she could reach the other end. The Zhuo Clan’s territory was unimaginably vast. She had been running for so long, but she remained stuck within this sealed region and could not leave. Despite falling out of the passageway, she did not dare to remain in place for long and hurriedly suppressed her injuries. Unfortunately, it was too late to erase her traces in the void. She could only resume moving in haste, leaving the current starry sky and escaping to another starry sky located millions of kilometres away. Although she was many Great Universes away from the place where she killed Zhuo Tianyin, she remained targeted by Zhuo Wu’s murderous intent. She could not break free from the pursuit. As a result, a heavy shadow of despair enveloped her heart. It was definitely one of the most dangerous experiences she had ever gone through in her life. Boom! Once again, a terrifying aura came from the Spacetime behind her. Charging forward like a boundless and raging torrent, the aura swept towards her. The galaxy immediately began to show signs of collapse around her. Meanwhile, Zhuo Wu’s murderous intent engulfed her again. It was endless and overwhelmingly powerful. Mu Yan gritted her teeth in pain. Gathering her strength once more, she transformed into a stream of light and continued fleeing. She could not sit around doing nothing, simply waiting for her death to come. “Why are there people in such a remote galaxy?”‘ From a distance, Mu Yan abruptly noticed three figures in the starry sky ahead. They seemed to have noticed the situation over here and were looking in her direction. The three figures were standing on an extremely desolate crystal planet, not far from her. Unfortunately, she was too preoccupied with escaping to take a closer look at those three figures and only managed to catch a vague glimpse of their outlines. Not wanting to drag them into her mess, she hastily sent a voice transmission to them before she got close, asking them to quickly escape. “If you don’t want to die, then quickly escape from here.” She knew that Elder Zhuo Wu would never care about the lives of other living creatures. After all, Elder Zhuo Wu had not hesitated to decimate several galaxies despite being within the Zhuo Clan. Gu Changge observed the blood-drenched girl with a strange look in his eyes. When the other party noticed them standing there, she hastily fled in another direction instead. It was obvious that she was trying her best not to involve them in her troubles, but she had underestimated the strength of the person pursuing her. The entire starry sky was crushed to pieces by the horrifying murderous intent. Large spiderweb-like cracks appeared behind her, and then Spacetime shattered and crumbled apart. A large hand that blocked out the sky came slamming down from within the cracks and covered the entire starry sky. It was obvious that the hand wanted to crush Mu Yan to death without regard for the other living creatures in the vicinity. [It seems that every Civilisation has no shortage of these Fortuitous Ones, but not everybody can reach the Dao Realm or achieve even greater heights. Be that as it may, why does this girl’s aura seem so odd?] The strange look in Gu Changge’s face deepened. “Young Master… Should we help?” the Spirit Empress asked. Just moments ago, she was shocked by the fact that a Heavenly Elder from the Zhuo Clan had activated the Universe Prohibition Order to seal the world. And now, she caught sight of the culprit behind everything. It was just that the girl was clearly in a life-or-death crisis. With her strength alone, it was impossible for her to defend against the murderous intent of an existence whose strength was comparable to a Dao Realm expert who had passed through their Third Decay Tribulation. Even if she was endowed with numerous miracles and blessings, they were useless in the face of absolute strength. Gu Changge did not say anything, but the look in his eyes was thoughtful. Although saving this girl was extremely easy for him, he clearly had something else in mind. Mu Yan did not expect to bring harm to these people, even though she had done her best to avoid others. Contrary to her expectations, they seemed indifferent to the situation. They did not even seem to have the intention to escape. “Can’t they sense the horrifying aura coming from behind me? Or, have they gone dumb from fear?” She sighed inwardly. Unfortunately, it was useless even if they tried to avoid them at this point. The murderous intent belonging to that Zhuo Clan’s Elder swept across the starry sky and covered all the living creatures within range. Nobody was spared. Although she did not wish to implicate the innocent, the current situation was out of Mu Yan’s hands. As the distance closed between them, she finally had a clear glimpse of the scene on the other side. There were three figures standing on the hill in the distance. The leader seemed to be the young man in white. Under the weak Moonlight and the steaming divine light that rose in the distance, his robes fluttered slightly. His elegant and refined appearance made him resemble the Immortal Celestials from legends.
