The boundary of the Fourth Heaven of the Nine Heavens.
Lu Ye's figure appeared, not pausing at all, and in an instant, he rushed out of the barrier and arrived in the Outer Domain.
The Outer Domain was also the Void, but compared to the Void of the Nine Heavens, the Void of the Outer Domain had a touch more of a chaotic color, not as clear and bright as the Void of the Nine Heavens.
Upon reaching the Outer Domain, one could feel even more strongly that sense of boundless sky and endless earth.
However, in just a moment, Lu Ye felt a sense of unease.
It was as if, in the short time he had been in the Outer Domain, he had already been targeted by something terrifying.
His life could disappear at any moment.
The time spent in the Outer β ππ¨π―ππ₯π’π π‘π β Domain generally should not exceed a quarter of an hour.
As long as it exceeded a quarter of an hour, or even shorter, it was possible to have one's life harvested by a powerful and mysterious existence.
Lu Ye knew what was harvesting life in the Outer Domain.
It was the Mother of Annihilation.
This was an extremely terrifying creature, not belonging to humans, but an evil existence conceived in the chaos. The curse she cast was not something she deliberately cast; it was merely a type of curse automatically formed by the patterns on her body since her birth, and it continuously harvested life in the Void.
If it weren't for the Dao Traces Great Emperor, Lu Ye would not have been able to stay long in the Outer Domain at all.
But now, he had the Dao Traces Great Emperor.
The Dao Traces Great Emperor was not afraid of the Mother of Annihilation, let alone just the curse that naturally flowed from her.
The Devouring Dao Beast rushed out.
One Devouring Dao Beast after another rushed out, quickly turning into a bloody mist, and the peak Heaven and Earth Realm aura instantly broke through.
Promotion! Promotion! Promotion!
Amidst the continuous promotions, An Li had already issued the command, "Kill him!"
The Dao Traces Great Emperor, hidden in the Void, watched this scene, a sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Come, try to make a move!
But the Devouring Dao Beast kept improving, kept merging, and quickly reached the Void Realm, reached the Shattering Realm, reached the Great Dao Realm...
It was already very close to Lu Ye. At such a close distance, the Devouring Dao Beast already had a million ways to annihilate Lu Ye.
"Make a move!" An Li shouted loudly.
"What's the hurry? I killed so many of my bodies. Wouldn't it be better to let him fall into infinite despair completely before killing him?" The Devouring Dao Beast spoke with anger.
"Are you sick? Don't you understand the principle that villains die from talking too much?" An Li's voice suddenly rose.
"I'm not a villain, and I don't need your consent. If you think it's too slow, then you make a move yourself!"
"I killed so many of my bodies, causing my realm to almost fall. How could there be such a cheap thing as letting me kill him instantly?" The Devouring Dao Beast roared, and a vast, overwhelming aura enveloped Lu Ye.
Lu Ye was actually directly suppressed by this aura, unable to move.
Yes, unable to move.
The disparity in strength between the two sides had reached such an inconceivable level.
The Devouring Dao Beast's strength was still increasing.
Imperial Dao expert!
Continue to improve!
An Li looked at Lu Ye frozen in the Void. She had never been this close to killing Lu Ye at this moment.
It only needed one move, a very simple move. The Devouring Dao Beast only needed to casually spit out a ray of light, and Lu Ye would completely disappear from the world.
Although Lu Ye's death would pain her, it was Lu Ye who had saved her from that dark and sunless place.
However, she really didn't want to live a peaceful life. She only wanted a magnificent and spectacular life!
The feeling of controlling everything at this moment was what she liked the most.
Facing the Devouring Dao Beast's stubborn refusal to make a move, An Li was practically gnashing her teeth.
"Make a move quickly! Don't you understand the principle that delaying will cause changes?" An Li shouted angrily.
The Devouring Dao Beast suddenly paused, and its Quasi-Emperor aura erupted.
It had become a Quasi-Emperor again.
"Then do you understand a principle?"
An Li was startled, "What?"
"When asking for help, have a better attitude. Don't shout and scream like a madwoman!"
When the Devouring Dao Beast said this, An Li was shocked upon hearing it.
A huge sense of unease rose in her heart.
She wanted to withdraw from the Devouring Dao Beast's body in an instant.
But now, what she was facing was a Quasi-Emperor Realm Devouring Dao Beast!
The power belonging to a Quasi-Emperor erupted completely from the Devouring Dao Beast's body.
Innate divine ability erupted.
The power of the Darkness Origin that was about to withdraw was instantly locked down.
Lu Ye, who had been completely suppressed and unable to move by the Devouring Dao Beast's aura, turned around, a faint smile on his face.
Yes, a performance.
A performance that was completely like deceiving a fool.
Originally, when Lu Ye was slaughtering, he and the Devouring Dao Beast were indeed in an antagonistic relationship, at least Lu Ye thought so.
He killed particularly fiercely, and the Devouring Dao Beast was also merciless; one person and ten thousand beasts fought until the sky was dark and the earth was dim.
That was true.
The problem arose when Lu Ye plundered the Devouring Dao Beast's energy.
Lu Ye massively absorbed the energy of the dead Devouring Dao Beast.
But as he absorbed, the energy suddenly broke off for a moment.
It was a complete break; Lu Ye couldn't absorb even a wisp of energy.
However, this situation only occurred for an instant, and Lu Ye could absorb energy again.
Lu Ye instantly understood that even if a part of the Devouring Dao Beast's body was killed, this energy still belonged to the Devouring Dao Beast.
As long as the Devouring Dao Beast didn't want him to absorb, he couldn't absorb even a single bit.
But the Devouring Dao Beast let him absorb.
The Devouring Dao Beast was even worried that Lu Ye wouldn't understand its meaning, so it disconnected several times consecutively, seemingly competing with Lu Ye for energy, but in reality, it was conveying its goodwill to Lu Ye.
Lu Ye understood.
He also heard the Devouring Dao Beast's loud roars in the fierce battle, shouting for An Li to support it.
Lu Ye understood even more.
However, even if he understood, Lu Ye couldn't put his life in the hands of the Devouring Dao Beast, so he continued to contact the Dao Traces Great Emperor to come and save him.
Lu Ye had already prepared for the Devouring Dao Beast's current actions.
"Ding! Preparation complete!"
"Drip, preparation complete!"
Two voices sounded simultaneously in his mind.
The Dao Traces Great Emperor also looked at the Devouring Dao Beast with curiosity, not quite understanding what the Devouring Dao Beast was doing, but it was obvious that the Devouring Dao Beast had embarked on the correct path and was gradually going further along this path.
"Look at me!"
The Devouring Dao Beast roared.
Above its head, a brilliant ball of light erupted. That light was the Great Dao it had devoured over countless years, now forming a net that completely enveloped a mass of black mist within.
In that black mist, An Li's face vaguely appeared.
And it was at this moment.
Lu Ye gave the command.
"Begin attack!"
"Ding, received!"
"Drip, received!"
Taking this mass of Darkness Origin as an opportunity, terrifying black lightning instantly surged towards the depths of the Void, covering the sky and earth.
"No!"
An Li let out a shriek.
The next second, it was as if she herself was struck by the black lightning, and she began screaming and struggling frantically.
