The First Marquis of Daxuan

boom! boom! boom!
The muffled thuds continued incessantly.

Master Xuanxuan bounced up and down like a ball.

Finally, with a loud thud, he crashed heavily to the ground.

Unlike his previous nonchalant demeanor, Master Xuanxuan was now bruised and battered, looking utterly disheveled.

He had just started to get up when Su Mu had already stepped on his chest.

Although Master Xuanxuan was at the peak of the Dao Ancestor Realm, he was like a child in front of Su Mu.

Since absorbing the power of the Desolate Heaven, Su Mu's strength has surpassed that of the Dao Ancestor Realm.

He is not detached, but he is even more detached than detached.

The only difference between him and the transcendent is that he lacks that attainment.

In terms of strength alone, Su Mu is not much weaker than Jin Hong, a transcendent being.

Even the Xuanxuan Venerable who transformed into a desolate creature was no match for Su Mu, let alone the Xuanxuan Venerable in front of him.

Master Xuanxuan winced in pain, his face contorted as he glared at Su Mu.

He didn't understand why Su Mu would suddenly take action.

"Su Mu, have you gone mad?"

Master Xuanxuan roared angrily.

You can't kill me!

"I won't kill you, but I've decided that from today onwards, I will beat you up every day."

Su Mu said calmly, "Don't worry, I have good aim, I won't accidentally kill you."

Master Xuanxuan's eyes widened.

Are you a devil?
Do you beat me every day just to vent your emotions?
How will this help resolve the great calamity of desolation?

I was just telling the truth. You can't beat Huangtian Creatures, so you come and fight me?

The transcendent Jin Hong looked thoughtful, and after a moment, he suddenly realized.

It was indeed not an easy task to completely eliminate Master Xuanxuan.

But it's not difficult to beat up Master Xuanxuan.

Master Xuanxuan has come up with such a despicable idea; he should be taught a good lesson.

With Su Mu's methods, it was impossible for Master Xuanxuan to escape or die; he could only passively endure the beating.

Jin Hong, the transcendent being, put himself in the other person's shoes. If it were him, being beaten up every day, he would definitely go crazy.

"Su Mu, what exactly do you want?"

Master Xuanxuan roared helplessly.

He is now filled with helplessness.

Su Mu's attack was cunning, causing him excruciating pain and leaving him looking disheveled, but in reality, the damage he suffered was not significant.

Su Mu did this on purpose to torture and humiliate him.

"Su Mu, let's talk again."

Master Xuanxuan said helplessly.

Su Mu's actions are too unpredictable.

Who would use violence to threaten someone into cooperating?

Moreover, the collaboration involves such a significant matter.

They want him to eliminate the Great Calamity of Desolation, yet they dare to humiliate him like this. Do they really think he's easy to bully?

Okay, he is indeed easy to bully.

Master Xuanxuan felt somewhat helpless.

Su Mu's unconventional approach disrupted all of his plans.

He has no choice at all now.

Su Mu wouldn't kill him, but he couldn't take being beaten repeatedly.

This is outrageous!

"Xuanxuan, you only have one chance."

Su Mu said slowly, "If you can't help us solve our problems, then your only value is to let us vent our emotions."

Master Xuanxuan: "..."

Is it possible to bully someone so blatantly?
"Actually, there is another way to resolve the Great Calamity of Desolation."

Master Xuanxuan sighed and said.

The transcendent Jin Hong stared wide-eyed at Master Xuanxuan.

Is there another way?

He now understood why Su Mu had called Master Xuanxuan treacherous and cunning.

He truly hadn't expected that Master Xuanxuan was hiding other ideas.

If he were to face Master Xuanxuan, he really couldn't think of so many ways to deal with him.

Evil people need to be tormented by other evil people.

Only Su Mu can deal with Master Xuanxuan.

"If you don't want the world to be destroyed by martial arts, then you can only establish a system to control the number of martial artists in all the worlds."

As long as the fruit on the tree is controlled properly, the Great Cataclysm of Desolation will not be triggered.

Master Xuanxuan said, “According to my plan, I will select a group of people to act as travelers to the myriad realms and carry out missions.”

Their mission is to create chaos in all the heavens and myriad realms, so that they can control the number of martial artists when the heavens and myriad realms are in turmoil.

When necessary, I can also directly issue orders to the Celestial Walkers.

"This game can be played in many ways..."

When Master Xuanxuan got excited, he couldn't help but speak his mind.

Transcendent Jin Hong: "..."

Traveling through the heavens? A mission?
This was completely beyond his imagination; he tried his best to understand it, but it was still difficult for him to comprehend.

He subconsciously looked at Su Mu.

Su Mu's face showed a thoughtful expression.

"This is the solution you came up with?"

Su Mu said with a somewhat strange expression.

Why does that sound so familiar?
They travel among the heavens, carrying out their missions, and thus instigating unrest.

Isn't this the Stream of All Heavens?

Master Xuanxuan also wanted to act as the biggest mastermind behind the scenes.

This method is indeed much gentler than the one used to exterminate Wu.

“There are countless living beings in the myriad realms. You think you are doing this for their own good, but they may not appreciate it.”

Human hearts are unpredictable. The beings of the heavens do not need to kill people directly. They can simply go with the flow and instigate wars in all the myriad realms.

Wars will result in death, and then we can naturally control the number of living beings in all the heavens and myriad worlds.

This is human nature, and you don't need to do it yourself. Their deaths are their own fault.

This way, the number of all living beings can be controlled, while also preserving a portion of the warriors.

If the Desolate Creatures were to launch another Desolate Calamity, then the myriad realms wouldn't be completely powerless to respond.

"We could even train the Walkers of the Heavens, and have them fight in the Desolate Plains every few years, so that the creatures of the Desolate Plains will be wary of us."

Master Xuanxuan became increasingly excited as he spoke.

He seemed to have been thinking about traveling through the heavens for a long time.

Once he starts talking, he can't even control himself.

Jin Hong, the detached one, became increasingly confused.

But Su Mu found it becoming more and more familiar.

According to Master Xuanxuan's idea, this is a typical template for the multiverse genre.

Putting aside Master Xuanxuan's whimsical ideas, this method does indeed have some feasibility.

Turning his head to look at the Transcendent Jin Hong, Su Mu saw the puzzled look on his face and knew that the other party had not understood.

For those who have never been exposed to the Zhutianliu, it is indeed difficult to understand such a thing.

The transcendent Jin Hongzhan was positioned too high; he always regarded all the heavens and myriad worlds as a whole, and he never thought about this issue from another perspective.

Su Mu slowly began to explain.

After listening to Su Mu's explanation, the transcendent Jin Hong finally understood.

"This method isn't entirely unworkable..."

He pondered, “But who will manage the movement of the heavens is a problem.”

"Master Xuanxuan is not qualified. I think you are the most suitable."

His gaze fell on Su Mu.

Master Xuanxuan rolled his eyes. This was an idea he'd been thinking about for countless years.

He was thinking about what he would do after he replaced the Transcendent One.

He wanted to treat all the heavens and myriad worlds as a playground.

Now Su Mu has come to pick the peaches!

Su Mu, you just wait!

Master Xuanxuan secretly hardened his heart.

He has never been one to willingly suffer a loss.

He will avenge today's humiliation a thousandfold, sooner or later!
"Traveling through the heavens is indeed a solution, but before we can implement it, we must first overcome this great calamity of the desolate heavens."

Su Mu said in a deep voice, "Xuanxuan, can't you sense your own body?"
I ask you, is there a powerful Desolate Creature on the Desolate Plains?

You know what I mean by powerful.

The existence of Master Xuanxuan is somewhat special.

Part of his body transformed into a creature of the desolate heavens.

The consciousness of that body lies dormant within him, and under normal circumstances it is suppressed by the power of the Desolate Heaven, but under certain special circumstances he can also sense the consciousness of that body.

In other words, Master Xuanxuan is like hiding an eye in the desolate wilderness.

This is the reason why Master Xuanxuan went to devour the creatures of the desolate heavens.

From beginning to end, Master Xuanxuan knew that his body would be assimilated into a creature of the Desolate Heaven.

He did it all so that he could bury an eye in the desolate wilderness.

In this way, he will be able to grasp all the situations in the universe.

This large tree, from its roots to its fruit, was entirely under his watchful eye.

He, Master Xuanxuan, is the one who is omnipresent and omniscient.

Even the desolate wilderness, beyond the reach of the power of the transcendent, would become his backyard.

"Yes."

Master Xuanxuan did not hide anything and said, "That desolate creature is more powerful than the Transcendent One. If you want to use my method, the first thing you need to do is defeat it."

"If we don't defeat it, the initiative will forever remain in the hands of the Wasteland Plains."

Ultimately, we still need to fight a battle.

The transcendent Jin Hong said in a deep voice, "You don't need to worry about this desolate creature. I'll deal with it. I'll take it with me and leave you a simple environment."

The transcendent Jin Hong had a murderous look on his face, as if he wanted to perish together with his opponent.

Master Xuanxuan curled his lip.

If it weren't for Su Mu suddenly appearing, how could someone with Jin Hong's impulsive personality, who transcends worldly affairs, possibly defeat him?
Once he completes his plan, the transcendent Jin Hong will eventually become his trap.

At that time, I will be able to easily take the position of the transcendent.

All the heavens and myriad worlds truly became his territory.

pity.

All his years of planning have been ruined by Su Mu.

Now that the Transcendent One Jin Hong actually wants to give up his Transcendent One status to Su Mu, how can this be allowed?
Su Mu is as cunning as a fox, much more troublesome than Jin Hong.

Master Xuanxuan lowered his head, a glint of conspiracy flashing in his eyes.

He has to find a way to prevent this from happening.

If Su Mu really becomes a transcendent being, then his day of triumph will come.

Su Mu is much younger than him, and once Su Mu obtains the status of a transcendent being, it is almost impossible for him to wait until Su Mu steps down.

He absolutely refused to stand by and watch this happen!

The only way to stop this is to kill Su Mu!

With Su Mu dead, the Transcendent Jin Hong had no choice but to pass on his Transcendent status to himself.

Once the Transcendent Jin Hong dies, I can implement those plans and select a group of Walkers from all realms to become my helpers in controlling all realms and the Desolate Plains!

Only when Su Mu dies can everything get back on track!

In an instant, dozens of methods flashed through Master Xuanxuan's mind.

But then he shook his head slightly, rejecting these methods.

Although he hated Su Mu, he had to admit that Su Mu was the most difficult opponent he had ever encountered in his life.

Moreover, Su Mu has fully matured, making it extremely difficult to kill him.

Although Master Xuanxuan came up with dozens of methods, none of them were absolutely certain of success.

After much thought, the only chance to kill Su Mu was probably that person on the desolate plains.

Apart from that one person, across all the myriad realms and the desolate plains, there is almost no power capable of killing Su Mu.

It may sound unbelievable, but that's the truth.

Master Xuanxuan was also helpless.

When facing someone like Su Mu, you either have to annihilate him with overwhelming force from the start, or never make an enemy of him.

Master Xuanxuan did not want to be enemies with Su Mu, but they were naturally competitors.

He was unwilling to let his years of planning go to waste, and Su Mu was unwilling to be subordinate to him.

Therefore, the conflict between the two is almost irreconcilable.

Master Xuanxuan was almost certain that if given the chance, Su Mu would kill him without hesitation.

He was the same.

“Su Mu, if you are going to the Wasteland to deal with that Wasteland creature, I can guide you, and I can also help you.”

Master Xuanxuan suddenly spoke.

"You'll help us?"

Su Mu gave Xuanxuan Shangren a meaningful look and said in a deep voice.

"Su Mu, don't underestimate me. I admit that this part of my body is no match for you."

But I, the Venerable Master Xuanxuan, have traversed the heavens and universes for so many years, I am not one to be trifled with.

If I fight with all my might, even if I'm not your match, the difference won't be too great.

Master Xuanxuan snorted coldly.

"Brother Jin, what are your chances of defeating that being on the Desolate Plains if we join forces, along with Xuanxuan?"

Su Mu ignored Xuanxuan Shangren and instead looked at the transcendent Jin Hong.

He took everything that Master Xuanxuan said as a mixture of truth and falsehood.

Those who dare to completely believe in Master Xuanxuan are probably already long gone, with grass growing on their graves.

Master Xuanxuan has never been a good person.

"I don't know either, I've never fought against him."

However, I can assure you that unless I die, it won't be able to kill you.

The transcendent Jin Hong shook his head and said.

“Even you haven’t fought it before. It seems we really should go to the Wasteland and test its strength.”

Su Mu pondered for a moment and said.

The matter of traveling through the heavens can be delayed, but the matter of the desolate plains must be resolved as soon as possible.

Although they won a great victory in their last attack on the Wasteland, the Wasteland creatures there have not given up.

The power of the Desolate Heaven on the Desolate Heaven Plains has now weakened to the point where it affects the survival of the Desolate Heaven creatures. In order to survive, they must launch the Great Desolate Heaven Calamity.

To stop this desolate calamity, the desolate creatures must be completely defeated.

The simplest way is to kill more of the Wilderness creatures.

Isn't the power of the Desolate Sky Plains insufficient?
A smaller number of wild creatures will suffice.

A few of the wild creatures can be left behind as whetstones for future journeys through the heavens.

But you shouldn't use too many whetstones.

Therefore, Su Mu now has only one idea: to take a two-pronged approach.

The power of the Desolate Plains cannot be too great, even though it is necessary for one to travel through the heavens.

Both roots and fruits must be weakened simultaneously so that they can coexist peacefully.

Only the Great Calamity of Desolation can completely disappear.

"Brother Jin, I'd like to test the waters of that desolate creature. What do you think?"

Su Mu asked in a deep voice.

"I said, you tell me how to do it, and I'll do it."

Since you want to test the other party, then let's go.

If I'm no match for him, I'll hold him off; you can leave now.

I believe that as long as you are here, the Great Calamity of Desolation will surely be resolved! (End of Chapter)
