第三千八百七十八章 天上掉馅饼

The entire process lasted as long as a cup of tea. Then, the Heaven璇 Sword Sovereign suddenly let out an inhuman roar and leaped to his feet.

He was enveloped by a thick aura of煞气, his face twisted into a grotesque expression.

Panting heavily, he exuded an incomprehensible pressure that fluctuated wildly between strong and weak.

It was hard to put it into words.

Just one moment ago, he seemed to be facing a late-stage heavenly demon during a tribulation. In the next instant, he appeared almost human again.

Time passed slowly.

Finally, his expression calmed down as he looked at his hands, showing an indescribable joy on his face. He then burst into laughter: "Haha, what fools we are! Heaven is indeed generous to me. Wanting to take over my body, it instead bestowed such a great gift upon this Sword Sovereign. Does Heaven want me to seek revenge against that Lin Xuan?"

The Heaven璇 Sword Sovereign, with disheveled hair, howled like a madman.

It was no wonder he was so elated; the experience had been too miraculous and unbelievable.

Initially, it seemed like an unexpected calamity as a demon soul suddenly took over his body. At that moment, the Heaven璇 Sword Sovereign thought he was doomed to die. Although the demon soul was weak, its realm was undeniably at late-stage tribulation level—late-stage old monsters!

How could such beings be resisted?

The Heaven璇 Sword Sovereign was both terrified and enraged. But he did not surrender; instead, he fought desperately.

Despite knowing that his resistance would likely be futile due to the vast disparity in power, he still clung to hope.

Miraculously, he survived and even devoured the scheming demon soul.

How could this happen?

The victim became the benefactor.

The Heaven璇 Sword Sovereign was bewildered. He couldn't believe it himself; his strength was far inferior, so just surviving was a miracle. How could he have taken over the situation?

What exactly happened during that time? As an eyewitness, he was equally confused.

But regardless, he had survived.

Moreover, his power had surged significantly, breaking through the tribulation realm and advancing to late-stage.

A divine gift!

Such a fortunate encounter was beyond belief.

Across the three realms and throughout history, such events were unheard of. Victims of possession rarely gained strength by devouring their possessors.

This defied logic; normally, there would be no shortcut in cultivation.

Yet fate had smiled upon him.

In his excitement, he quickly regained composure.

Though Heaven favored him, he could not become overly arrogant. The better the opportunity, the more it should be cherished. His immediate priority was to stabilize his realm.

Revenge against Lady Gong Sun Yuer would have to wait.

Killing her would only vent a grudge; if anything unexpected happened, it would be counterproductive.

Now that he had reached late-stage tribulation, as long as he stabilized his realm, he could seek revenge against Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan, with Heaven's help, this Sword Sovereign would one day drain your soul and refine you to essence!

The Heaven璇 Sword Sovereign raised his head, cursing viciously before flying back along the same path.

Meanwhile, Lady Gong Sun Yuer was unaware of all this. She had nearly crossed over to the realm of ghosts during her mission.

Currently, she waited anxiously by the Lotus Purity Pool as the Immortal Alliance was just formed and in its prime. They launched a major counterattack against the域外天魔.

On one hand, they reclaimed lost territories; on the other, they built their reputation and prestige.

Each major sect took charge of different regions and fought with all their might. Whoever achieved the greatest success would be most likely to become the leader of the Immortal Alliance.

Given that her responsibility was the Cloud Maple Mine vein, which had been repeatedly attacked without success, Lady Gong Sun Yuer couldn't help but feel anxious: "Zhang Yan, this useless man, is he intentionally not fighting to his fullest?"

Anger flashed across her beautiful face as she grew increasingly impatient.

A thousand years ago, they already had a grudge, but with the changing times and her magnanimity, she no longer felt the need to settle old scores.

Their statuses were now entirely different; pursuing him would only diminish her reputation.

But unexpectedly, Zhang Yan was too disrespectful, secretly causing trouble for her. The Cloud Maple Mine vein was merely defended by域外天魔 whose strength was less than a third of the attacking force's. Even with an array to assist, how could they possibly hold out?

Clearly, it was due to Zhang Yan not fighting to his fullest.

Absolutely suicidal!

While willing to forgive and forget, Lady Gong Sun Yuer would not be lenient. If he continued to defy death, she wouldn't spare him either.

With this thought, a hint of murderous intent appeared on her face.

However, before the idea fully formed, the young woman's eyebrows lifted as if sensing something.

After about several breaths, a streak of light entered her view, and the glow faded to reveal a middle-aged man with a pale complexion. He was wearing rough cloth robes stained with blood, having endured a fierce battle.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, he prostrated himself before Lady Gong Sun Yuer: "Junior Disciple Luo, it's you! What happened? You look so disheveled."

The man in front of her was also from Cloud Concealment Sect and had participated in the attack on the Cloud Maple Mine vein. He hadn't expected to be in such a state.

"Master Uncle, I report that all comrades tasked with besieging the Cloud Maple Mine vein have perished. Please make your decision," the middle-aged man cried as he prostrated himself. He was fortunate enough to escape death.

"What? All of them dead? How is this possible?"

Lady Gong Sun Yuer was shocked. This scene was beyond her wildest dreams: "What happened? Their reinforcements were cut off, and the disparity in strength was enormous. How could they all be wiped out?"

"I don't know either," the Luo man cried. "At first, everything went smoothly, and we thought we would conquer the Cloud Maple Mine vein. But suddenly, a powerful域外天魔 appeared as if from nowhere…"
