Seeing this scene, Ye Xuan suddenly opened his palm. The Qingxuan Sword directly pierced into the soul of the Shepherd God King!
Boom!
Soul Suppression!
However, it was useless!
The soul of the Shepherd God King still rapidly faded away!
The Shepherd God King suddenly spoke softly, “It’s no use. What they are killing is my true body. The me in front of you is not even a soul!”
Ye Xuan said in a low voice, “They are afraid you will reveal information about your world?”
The Shepherd God King nodded, “Yes!”
Ye Xuan asked again, “What kind of world is yours exactly?”
After a moment of silence, the Shepherd God King said softly, “A world that might surpass your understanding. We…”
Boom!
Suddenly, the soul of the Shepherd God King directly turned to ashes!
Seeing this, Ye Xuan’s expression instantly darkened!
Damn it!
This was silencing him!
Qin Guan said softly, “It seems these gods are even more powerful than we imagined!”
Ye Xuan nodded. He had already foreseen that the gods they had seen so far were merely the tip of the iceberg!
Thinking of this, Ye Xuan’s face grew solemn!
He really knew how to pick enemies. He had chosen the most powerful ones to challenge in order to break through to godhood.
At this moment, Qin Guan suddenly asked, “How is the cultivation of those powerhouses from the Void Realm going?”
Ye Xuan turned to look. At this moment, within the small tower, there were nearly a hundred thousand powerful auras. Compared to before, the auras of these Void Realm powerhouses had grown at least ten times stronger!
The functions of the small tower were truly heaven-defying!
However, he knew that even so, they probably still could not contend with those gods!
Qin Guan suddenly asked, “How many powerhouses do we have in total now?”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then said, “All the powerhouses from the Void Realm Cemetery have basically awakened. Adding the original powerhouses of the Void Realm, we now have roughly three hundred and sixty thousand powerhouses! Besides that, we are continuously recruiting more!”
“Three hundred and sixty thousand!”
Qin Guan nodded slightly, then said, “That is a massive number!”
Ye Xuan was a little curious, “Little Guan, why are you asking this?”
Qin Guan smiled, “To forge divine equipment!”
Ye Xuan was stunned.
Qin Guan said solemnly, “We have no advantage at all against divine powerhouses, especially since those gods possess the ability to resurrect. Once we die, that’s it, we’re completely finished! Under such circumstances, we definitely cannot outlast those gods. Therefore, I want to forge an extremely, extremely powerful set of equipment for them!”
Ye Xuan quickly nodded, “That is absolutely possible!”
Qin Guan continued, “To forge this kind of divine armour, two things are essential. First, we need money. Second, we need materials!”
Ye Xuan said, “You have both!”
Qin Guan rolled her eyes, then said, “Let me tell you, we started researching how to forge a truly powerful set of divine armour a long time ago, but even now, we still haven’t succeeded. Do you know why?”
Ye Xuan asked, “Why?”
Qin Guan said gravely, “Materials! My people have been searching for materials across various universes, yet it is still not enough. Right now, we are extremely, extremely short of materials!”
Ye Xuan’s expression darkened. If even the rich lady couldn’t find them, then no one in the world could!
Qin Guan suddenly opened her palm. In her hand was a sharply angled, special crystal shard.
Ye Xuan was somewhat surprised, “This is?”
Qin Guan said solemnly, “Star Crystal. This is a special crystal formed after a star burns out completely. Originally it was huge. We used a special method to condense it to this size. This material is extremely, extremely hard. The core material of that World-Exterminating Divine General you saw earlier was precisely this stuff!”
“A star that has burned itself out!”
Ye Xuan’s face grew grave, “This thing must be very, very rare, right?”
Qin Guan nodded, “Actually, it’s not that rare. Every day, stars fall and burn out completely. However, for us, it is far from enough! Unless… unless we actively destroy some stars ourselves!”
Hearing this, Ye Xuan immediately shook his head, “No way!”
Qin Guan fell silent.
Ye Xuan looked at Qin Guan, “Doing this would be sacrificing the future to achieve the present.”
Qin Guan nodded slightly, “I have considered this issue too, which is why I have held back and not acted!”
Ye Xuan fell silent.
Qin Guan suddenly said, “But if we cannot win this battle, there will be no future at all!”
Hearing this, Ye Xuan was stunned.
That’s right!
If they couldn’t win this battle, what future would there be?
Qin Guan said, “My idea is to destroy only those stars that can no longer be saved. If there are living beings on them, we help them relocate. Generally, such stars are already unsuitable for habitation or cultivation, so I believe they would be very willing to move.”
Ye Xuan thought about it, then nodded, “If that’s the case, it’s acceptable! However, this matter must be handled by people we trust, otherwise problems could easily arise.”
Qin Guan smiled, “Just the two of us will do it!”
Ye Xuan was taken aback, “Just the two of us?”
Qin Guan nodded, “This cannot be handed to anyone else. One careless mistake could bring catastrophic disaster to the beings on certain planets. Therefore, only the two of us can handle it. That way, we can be at ease and avoid many tragedies!”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then nodded, “Alright!”
Qin Guan suddenly waved her right hand. A map appeared in the sky. This map was tens of thousands of zhang in both length and width, incredibly vast!
Ye Xuan was somewhat surprised, “This is?”
Qin Guan smiled, “This is the map of our entire Guanxuan Universe. The marked areas are the stars we have already discovered. There are still some we haven’t found, and we are still exploring.”
Ye Xuan said softly, “Our Guanxuan Universe is actually this huge!”
Qin Guan nodded, “Extremely huge!”
As she spoke, she snapped her fingers. In an instant, countless tiny red dots appeared on the map!
Ye Xuan looked at Qin Guan, “These are?”
Qin Guan said gravely, “These are the stars that are about to be destroyed. All of them can no longer be saved!”
Ye Xuan fell silent.
In this vast universe, every day stars were destroyed and new stars were born!
This was the natural law of the universe!
At this moment, Qin Guan suddenly pointed to some of the red dots and said, “These stars are the ones we must deal with first, because there are still living beings on these soon-to-be-destroyed stars. If we do not relocate them in time, they will perish together with their home stars!”
Ye Xuan said solemnly, “The problem is, each star has a considerable population. Relocating all of them is no small task! Just the two of us?”
Qin Guan smiled, “The two of us are more than enough!”
Ye Xuan was puzzled, “How so?”
Qin Guan blinked, “Your small tower!”
Hearing this, Ye Xuan was stunned!
That’s right!
The small tower!
He had almost forgotten about it!
This tower contained its own world and could easily accommodate countless living beings!
Qin Guan said seriously, “Moreover, I have investigated. Many of the stars about to be destroyed are home to numerous beings, but the martial civilisation they have been exposed to is very poor. If we save all of them and impart our teachings, I believe your power of faith will experience a massive breakthrough!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Didn’t you say my power of faith would become my burden?”
Qin Guan smiled, “It might be in the future, but before that, you should first push it to its absolute limit. In the end, whether you break free from it or not will be your own choice!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Never mind breaking through to godhood or not! Let’s first save these beings! If I only did these things purely for the sake of becoming a god, it would be meaningless! My original intention remains the same as before. If I can do something for the countless beings of the Guanxuan Universe, that is enough!”
As he spoke, he smiled faintly, “As for becoming a god, if I can, I will. If I truly cannot, then I won’t! I will never sacrifice the people around me just for the sake of so-called godhood. If I did that, what would be the point of becoming a god! In one sentence, I will not let tragedy befall me!”
