Worldwide Simulation Era

The Heavenly Star Daoist's aura rose rapidly, and it soon reached a state similar to Lin Qiye's when he unleashed his full power.

"It's that strange power again!"

The battle-robed man sensed the power flowing around the Heavenly Star Daoist and could not help but clench the spear in his hand.

Lin Qiye's expression also changed slightly.

He discovered that the energy on the Heavenly Star Daoist's body was pulsing with an endless rhythm, which was the support of the world's power.

"How is that possible? The world power he controls is not weaker than mine!"

Previously, he had learned from Wan Meng that the Heavenly Star Daoist's world power was only a fragment at the edge.

But now, the power displayed by the Heavenly Star Daoist was no less than what he had.

"Hehe, are you surprised? I've already obtained the world's power a hundred thousand years ago."

The Heavenly Star Daoist smiled as he walked toward Lin Qiye.

"The demon you just dealt with was merely a human cauldron for me to cultivate the world's power. However, I have to thank you all. If it weren't for you, I would have had to pay a high price to take back that power."

Lin Qiye was shocked when he heard what the old man said.

The Demon King was actually a cauldron that the Heavenly Star Daoist used to nurture the world's power!

From what he said, he seriously injured the Demon King a hundred thousand years ago, causing him to go into hiding. It was not that he could not kill him, but he had long planned this and deliberately let the Demon King live.

Such a bold scheme! How powerful and confident must one be to do it?

"Alright, you've all worked hard today. I'll send you on your way to hell earlier."

The Heavenly Star Daoist took a step forward and instantly appeared beside Lin Qiye.

Lin Qiye was shocked. The space in this area was almost completely sealed. He and the battle-robed man moved like a snail, but the Heavenly Star Daoist was still so fast.

In a hurry, Lin Qiye couldn't dodge in time. He could only wave his blade to block and try to force the Heavenly Star Daoist to retreat.

The battle-robed man's reaction was also instantaneous. When the Heavenly Star Daoist moved, he raised his long spear and stabbed at his back.

The Heavenly Star Daoist's expression didn't change in the face of the pincer attack.

He grabbed the blade with his left hand and the spear with his right hand.

The sharpness of the weapons was applied directly to the skin of his palm, but it did not cause him any damage.

"What a pity. If you were still in your prime, you might be able to pose a threat to me. But now..."

The Heavenly Star Daoist shook his head as he muttered. He exerted force in both arms and directly snatched the weapons, throwing them out.

"Damn it. This guy is too strong! Young Master, you go first. I'll hold him back!"

The battle-robed man turned his head and shouted at Lin Qiye.

He had already been injured quite badly while fighting the Demon King, and he only had about 60% of his combat power left.

Lin Qiye was in an even more miserable state. He had released 80% of his origin power in one go. Now, not only had he lost more than half of his power, but it was also continuously decreasing.

Facing the Heavenly Star Daoist at his peak, the two had almost no chance of winning.

After all, he was an existence that even dared to use the Demon King as a cauldron to nurture his strength.

"Senior, the entire world is his territory. I can't run even if I wanted to."

Lin Qiye shrugged and smiled at the battle-robed man. It was obvious that he had no intention of running away alone.

Seeing Lin Qiye put on a relaxed show, the battle-robed man knew he didn't want to leave him behind. Thus, he pulled him back to avoid the Heavenly Star Daoist's attacks and said seriously, "Young Master, I still have some trump cards to protect myself. As long as you leave first, I'll have a way to escape."

"Really?"

Seeing how confident he was and didn't seem to be joking, Lin Qiye also didn't want to lose his life in vain.

"My mission is to bring you back safely. If you die here, how can I explain it to the Mistress? You should leave quickly. The longer you stall, the worse it is for me!"

The battle-robed man's aura instantly reached its peak as if to prove that he was not lying.

Lin Qiye did not hesitate any longer. After thanking him, he turned around and fled.

"Senior, I'll wait for you to come to find me again!"

As his voice faded, Lin Qiye's figure gradually disappeared from their sight.

The Heavenly Star Daoist watched Lin Qiye escape, but he was not in a hurry to give chase.

He looked at the battle-robed man, and his eyes lit up.

"What a miracle! What did you do? How did you recover your strength so quickly?"

A trace of golden liquid flowed out of the man's mouth. He licked his lips and swallowed it. In a few breaths, he displayed an aura that was more powerful than when he was in his prime.

"You want to know? In your dreams!"

The battle-robed man did not answer the question. With a wave of his hand, the long spear that the Heavenly Star Daoist had thrown aside flew back into his hand.

"The things of the main world are truly fascinating. It doesn't matter if you don't want to tell me. Once I kill you, everything about you will no longer be a secret!"

The battle-robed man's techniques had surprised and delighted the Heavenly Star Daoist.

He turned his hand and took out his long sword. His expression was stern, no longer in a playful posture.

The battle-robed man didn't dare to be careless when he saw the Heavenly Star Daoist getting serious.

The two moved almost at the same time. The long sword and the spear were like lightning, constantly clashing.

Every time they touched, the space would twist. If it weren't for Jieyin Token's restriction, each impact would be enough to break the space.
