The Swordsaint managed to escape, much to the surprise of Su Han and Saint You Heng. They hadn’t expected the Swordsaint to be so ruthless and callous as to use the self-destruction of Lan Yi the Female Saint to flee the Holy Rune Great Formation.
Lan Yi the Female Saint was not from the Demon Slayer Sect but was a saint from the Mirror Lake Holy Ground. She had stayed by his side out of admiration, yet he had planted a special mark within her, having long been prepared to sacrifice her at a critical mont to save himself.
Su Han had never encountered such selfishness and cruelty before.
"If this man isn’t eliminated, he will be an endless source of trouble. I will hunt him down. Be careful, leave Qingzhou, and return to Cang City first!"
Saint You Heng’s expression was grave as he spoke. Then, his figure tore through space, quickly giving chase to the Swordsaint.
If such a cold-hearted person were to escape today, he would undoubtedly beco a future nace. Now that the Myriad Treasures Pavilion had decided to wage war against the Demon Slayer Sect, dangerous individuals like him had to be eradicated imdiately.
The Swordsaint was severely injured, making this the best opportunity to kill him. Saint You Heng had no intention of missing this chance.
As Saint You Heng pursued the Swordsaint, Su Han was left alone.
Su Han also detested the Swordsaint, but his strength was insufficient to give chase. He could only pray that Saint You Heng would succeed.
What a pity. The Holy Rune Great Formation is broken and no longer complete.
Su Han withdrew his gaze and focused on the Holy Rune Great Formation, which had been shattered by the self-destruction of Lan Yi the Female Saint. Countless fragnts of Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes now drifted down like snowflakes, with few remaining intact.
These Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes were extrely effective, and Su Han had no intention of letting them go to waste. He collected all the runes and eventually obtained eighteen complete Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes, along with a pile of their fragnts.
It was unclear if these fragnts were still usable, but Su Han collected them anyway, planning to study them later.
To strike such a fatal blow against a woman who admired him... the assassins of the Demon Slayer Sect are truly cold-blooded.
The bloody remnants from the self-destruction of Lan Yi the Female Saint still lingered in the air, falling like a gory rain. Su Han felt she had died in vain.
This is no place to linger!
After collecting the Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes, Su Han had no intention of staying any longer. His figure flickered as he rapidly moved away.
「Three days later」
Su Han arrived at the capital of Ning Country. Revisiting a familiar place, he had no intention of seeking out the King of Ning.
He found an ordinary inn and took up residence, preparing to begin his seclusion.
I hope to break through to the Heavenly King Realm Ninth Level this ti.
Su Han set up a warning formation, then took Exalted Blood’s corpse from the Bronze Ring.
Although Exalted Blood did not possess a Special Physique, Su Han still intended to devour him to enhance his own strength.
Saint You Heng had told Su Han to return to Cang City, but obtaining the Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes gave him a new idea. He couldn’t deal with Ye Chuanfeng or the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign for now, but he saw an opportunity for revenge against Qin Wushuang, who was only at the Supre Realm Fourth Layer. How could Su Han let such a chance pass him by? He decided against returning to Cang City. Instead, he would first increase his strength, then study the Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes, and finally go to the Heavenly Demon Cult to find an ambush for Qin Wushuang.
Su Han activated the Devouring Heaven Demonic Art. Dense black Demonic Qi instantly enveloped Exalted Blood’s corpse, covering it and beginning the process of devouring and refinent.
Exalted Blood was, after all, a powerful expert at the Supre Realm Third Layer, and his corpse contained an imnse amount of energy. After Su Han refined it, his aura began to climb steadily.
It’s a sha Lan Yi the Female Saint self-destructed. With a saint’s corpse, I might have had a chance to break through to the Supre Realm.
After a day and a night, Exalted Blood’s corpse was fully digested and refined. As he had wished, Su Han successfully broke through to the Heavenly King Realm Ninth Level.
But he did not end his seclusion. Instead, he used Taiyi Golden Thunder and Purple Lightning Yin Thunder for Body Tempering, purging the impurities left in his body from the devouring process. He then used the Thunderbolt Ice Fire Tempering thod. The combined power of Yin Yang Thunder, Samadhi True Fire, and Triple Chilling Nether Qi quickly eliminated the impurities, leaving no hidden dangers behind.
Su Han slowly opened his eyes and exhaled in relief. "I succeeded!"
His robust Demonic Qi had deepened his aura, making him seem like a vast expanse of darkness capable of engulfing everything.
At this point, he had successfully broken through to the Heavenly King Realm Ninth Level. If he were to wear the Ghostly Face Mask, perform Physique Fusion, and enter the Demonized State, he should be able to contend with an expert at the Supre Realm First Layer.
Of course, this level of strength was nowhere near enough to confront Qin Wushuang, who was at the Supre Realm Fourth Layer. Su Han still needed to study the Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes.
WHOOSH!
With a grasp of his hand, a large number of Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes appeared before him. Unfortunately, only eighteen were complete; the rest were fragnts.
It looks like I can only use these eighteen complete Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes as a foundation and fill the gaps with the fragnts. Hopefully, I can still set up a Great Formation!
Having received the mory inheritance from the white-haired man, Su Han’s Formation Mastery could be considered at its peak. Although the Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes were different from ordinary formation materials, he was still able to arrange and assemble them.
For three consecutive days, Su Han studied how to combine the complete Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes and their fragnts into a Great Formation. He ca up with over a dozen plans and tried different combinations before finally succeeding.
SWISH!
Inside the room, the eighteen Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes shone brilliantly, like eighteen dazzling stars. Arranged in the four cardinal directions, they ford an Eight Trigrams pattern.
Then, over a hundred glittering fragnts filled the gaps. The formation shone with a crystalline light, as magnificent and beautiful as a star-filled night sky.
"Eight Extres Star Array!"
Su Han looked at his creation with a satisfied smile.
He had spent three days wracking his brain but had finally managed to set it up. Moreover, he could carry this Eight Extres Star Array with him.
Although he couldn’t set up formations as instantaneously as Master Gong Ming, he could deploy it anywhere at any ti and wait for his enemies to take the bait.
Su Han believed this Eight Extres Star Array would not only be useful against Qin Wushuang but also effective against Ye Chuanfeng and the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign. Within the Supre Realm, it would be unstoppable.
However, the Eight Extres Star Array could only seal space-ti and couldn’t suppress an enemy’s strength like the Nine Palaces Bagua Formation. If it could, the effect would have been perfect.
I wonder if Saint You Heng succeeded in his pursuit.
Su Han stepped out of the inn and began asking for news in the capital, quickly learning the latest developnts.
Saint You Heng had failed in his pursuit. The Swordsaint had escaped, but he was seriously injured and would likely be unable to fight again for so ti.
But another, more explosive piece of news shook Su Han.
The Myriad Treasures Pavilion had officially declared war on the Demon Slayer Sect. Except for the two Great Emperors who would not intervene for now, everyone else would participate.
Saints would battle, Supres would participate, and Heavenly Kings would serve as soldiers. It was an all-out war.
War has begun?
This was the first ti Su Han had heard the news, and he was utterly shocked.
