Chapter 165: Urgent Reinforcements

Listening to the urgent request for immediate reinforcement from the Marquis-level immortal legion commander named Luke, Luo Yuan nodded. Instantly, the golden flame god-king armor covered his body, and the Soul-Deriving Weapon materialized behind him. With a single step of teleportation, Luo Yuan vanished out of the spacecraft, retrieving it as he departed.

Below, three Marquis-level immortal beasts of the Monster race were leading a formidable monster legion in the slaughter of the human legion. The two Marquis-level immortals of Luke's legion were pinned down by two monster immortals, clearly losing the upper hand. Down in the human legion, Commander Luke caught sight of the suddenly appearing Luo Yuan, his eyes widening in utter shock. Teleportation! That was an ability even King-level immortals struggled to master.

However, once Commander Luke perceived Luo Yuan's cultivation realm, only despair remained in his eyes. "What? He's merely a peak World Lord? It's over, we're finished!"

Caring little for the thoughts of those below, Luo Yuan's eyes flashed like lightning. Under the control of his powerful spiritual force, the Soul-Deriving Weapon behind him instantly split into 10,081 golden miniature swords that hovered densely in the air. With a single thought from Luo Yuan, they surged toward the monster soldiers below. He decided to clear out the cannon fodder first, lest any of them managed to escape later.

The tens of thousands of golden flying swords acted like a colossal meat grinder, instantly shredding the monster soldiers beneath into pulp. Universe-level, Domain Lord-level, and World Lord-level combatants alike were indiscriminately massacred. This breathtaking display left the human soldiers staring in blank astonishment; never in their lives had they witnessed such a terrifying peak World Lord.

Among the monster ranks, a Marquis-level immortal Iron-Backed Demonic Wolf, which had been actively slaughtering humans, felt its eyes split with rage as it watched. The tribe it led happened to be caught within the range of Luo Yuan's massacre. Seeing its former subordinates slaughtered into bloody paste one by one by the golden flying swords, it let out a furious roar, "Human brat, prepare to die!"

The Marquis-level immortal Iron-Backed Demonic Wolf soared into the sky, extending its razor-sharp claws as it lunged fiercely toward Luo Yuan. Seeing this, Luo Yuan merely sneered. Without drawing any other weapon, he simply raised a hand, transferred all the human soldiers lingering on this Fragment of Continent Number 05 into his inner world, and then teleported directly beside the demonic wolf, bringing his right fist down with ferocious force onto its massive skull.

"Boom!"

The sound resembled the detonation of billions of atomic bombs. The body of the Marquis-level immortal Iron-Backed Demonic Wolf was driven downward by Luo Yuan's single punch like a streak of light crashing into the ground below. A terrifying shockwave swept outward in all directions, blowing everything into chaos and reducing the corpses of nearby monster soldiers to ash. A gigantic mushroom cloud generated by the energy shockwave surged straight into the heavens.

The collision of the demonic wolf's divine body with the hardened continental ground shattered Fragment of Continent Number 05 into pieces, while the wolf's divine body itself disintegrated into countless golden particles of light.

"Space Lockdown! Spatial Annihilation!"

Luo Yuan quickly eradicated those golden light particles into nothingness, instantly obliterating every trace of the demonic wolf's life imprint. There was no helping it; an immortal's undying body was notoriously difficult to finish off. Having dispatched the Marquis-level immortal Iron-Backed Demonic Wolf, he turned his gaze toward the remaining two monster immortals—a cyan true dragon and a spacetime phantom beast, both belonging to the imperial bloodlines of the Monster race.

However, those two monster immortals, along with the two human immortals fighting them, were currently frozen in mid-air, staring at Luo Yuan with expressions of utter bewilderment. They had never encountered a World Lord capable of obliterating a Marquis-level immortal in a single move, let alone one from the Monster race renowned for their formidable physical strength.

Noticing the chilling gaze Luo Yuan directed at them, the cyan true dragon and the spacetime phantom beast both shivered involuntarily. Suspecting that this human might be a King-level immortal masking his true strength as a weakling, they immediately began plotting their escape.

"A cyan true dragon and a spacetime phantom beast. Perfect—one will make a fine snack to accompany drinks, while the other can be farmed for time and space law attributes. Such law attributes are exceptionally rare to pick up," Luo Yuan murmured with a smile as he looked at the two monster immortals.

"Brother Qinglong, there's a human here possessing strength comparable to three immortals. Let's look for a chance to run, or perhaps launch a joint attack against that golden-armored human in the sky and deal with the other two human immortals later. What do you say?" The spacetime phantom beast sent a telepathic message to the cyan dragon.

The cyan true dragon nodded in agreement, failing to notice the cunning glint hidden deep within the spacetime phantom beast's eyes.

"Roar!"

A thousand-foot-long cyan dragon and the spacetime phantom beast suddenly broke away from the attacks of the two human Marquis-level immortals, hurtling fiercely toward Luo Yuan. Facing these two gigantic beasts, Luo Yuan directly activated the "True Body of the Universe," transforming into a ten-thousand-foot-tall giant. Two sky-covering hands descended from the heavens—one grasping the cyan dragon by its head, the other lunging to seize the spacetime phantom beast.

"Spacetime Freezing!"

The spacetime phantom beast unleashed its strongest innate technique, yet it only managed to cause Luo Yuan's colossal hand to pause for a mere fraction of a second. Before it could utilize its God Kingdom to escape, it was firmly gripped in Luo Yuan's grasp. Channeling his immense world energy, Luo Yuan condensed the laws into golden chains of law, tightly binding the two Marquis-level monster immortals and rendering them utterly incapable of mobilizing their divine power.

The eyes of the ten-thousand-foot giant transformed into a bloody crimson. Unleashing the World-Destruction Divine Eye, Luo Yuan directly wiped away the consciousness of both monsters. Exhaling a breath of golden flames forged from fire-attribute laws, he incinerated the cyan dragon. The divine power within the cyan dragon was rapidly refined and extracted, ultimately condensing into a giant golden elixir, after which the dragon's divine body dissipated completely into nothingness.

Luo Yuan tossed the giant golden elixir into his mouth and chewed on it as if it were a piece of candy. The divine power elixir tasted simply marvelous; transformed into world energy under the influence of the law forces, it instantly replenished all the energy expended by this avatar.

"Spacetime phantom beast, you're next!"

The gaze Luo Yuan cast upon the spacetime phantom beast was filled with tender affection and eager anticipation, causing the creature to tremble violently.

"Awooo~!"

Next came a decade-long whipping session inflicted upon the spacetime phantom beast by countless golden swords.

"Time law attribute +1"
"Time law attribute +1"
"Space law attribute +1"
"Space law attribute +1"
……

A decade later, looking at the utterly demoralized spacetime phantom beast and the dwindling number of dropping attributes, Luo Yuan shattered its divine body entirely and eradicated every last trace of its life imprint. He was becoming increasingly proficient in the workflow and techniques required to dispatch immortals.

Commander Luke and his human soldiers had long since been relocated by Luo Yuan to another continental fragment. Luke had attempted to invite him to join the legion, but Luo Yuan politely refused; he had no interest in playing babysitter. Moreover, the attributes dropped by beings below the immortal tier were practically useless to Luo Yuan at this stage of his growth.

Luo Yuan's true body was currently seated within his private antique-style courtyard in Chaos City, operating this avatar as if he were playing a mecha game—doing entirely as he pleased. Even if this avatar were to be overly reckless and get destroyed by alien races, it would merely cost him a bit of time to forge a new one. Inspecting his Star-Eating Vine, which was rapidly approaching the immortal breakthrough threshold and being soaked daily in Locke God Water, he decided that once it reached immortality, he would hand it over to his avatar to clear out the cannon fodder below the immortal tier.
