Let you simulate life, but you change fate every time?! Chapter 1146 - 598: Eighth Lifetime: Entering the Divine Temple, True Dragon Hatchling?

The Divine Hall Plaza.

Following the brutal man's demise at Lu Yuan's hands, an exceptionally heavy atmosphere descended upon the area.

Unexpectedly, Corpse Emperor and the other Immortal Strong Persons discovered a method to unlock the divine hall's gate through the recent events.

Unlike the blood sacrifice technique employed by Immortal Emperor Nanli and his group, the divine hall plaza would automatically absorb all Immortal True Blood and Essence of Life.

This implied something crucial.

The True Blood from Immortal Strong Persons originating from different world planes could also be utilized to open the divine hall's gate!

Yet, having endured endless hardships and braved numerous perils to reach the vicinity of the Ancient Divine Hall, who would willingly offer themselves as a sacrifice for others?

Consequently, the primary concern for everyone became identifying which unfortunate souls would be sacrificed.

But at this very juncture.

Lu Yuan turned his gaze toward the companions of those brutal men, his voice laced with frost.

"Did you lot claim you intended to blood sacrifice me just now?"

Upon hearing this, the hearts of those Immortal Strong Persons seized up instantly, their faces draining of all color.

They recognized that the brutal man from earlier was the most formidable among their group of five.

However, even such a powerful individual was dispatched by Lu Yuan's blade without the slightest resistance; how could they possibly stand a chance?

"Senior... Senior, please allow us to explain. What transpired just now was entirely his own volition and has no bearing on us!"

"Indeed, Senior, you are a paragon of virtue and respect. Why trouble us juniors?"

"As long as Senior shows us mercy, we pledge to become your slaves, at your complete disposal!"

These individuals trembled with fear, their voices quivering.

"Is that so?"

Lu Yuan's gaze, sharp as a blade, traversed each of the individuals before finally settling on the elder speaking with a trembling voice.

Despite the man's aged appearance, his aura was anything but ordinary. Possessing Late-Stage Immortal Cultivation, even within the Supreme Origin Sacred Realm—a High-Level Plane—he was considered among the elite.

Nevertheless, when the brutal man initially attacked, this very elder had clearly been offering support from the sidelines, poised to strike the moment Lu Yuan exhibited the slightest sign of faltering.

"Esteemed Senior, I am the sovereign of Profound Realm. Should you spare my life, I am prepared to lead all inhabitants of Profound Realm to pledge allegiance under your command."

The old man met Lu Yuan's piercing stare, his heart jolting violently. He hastily clasped his hands in a respectful gesture.

"There is no need. If a mistake was made, a price must be paid. Any further words can be spoken on the road to the Yellow Springs."

Lu Yuan harbored no inclination to show leniency toward his adversaries.

Given that these individuals had plotted to blood sacrifice him, he deemed it imperative to eliminate them entirely to prevent future complications!

In the subsequent moment.

With a casual flick of his hand, a brilliant saber light pierced through the void once more. It advanced with astonishing velocity, reaching the group in an instant.

Swift!

Unfathomably swift!

It was only at this critical juncture.

That the few of them finally comprehended why the brutal man, ostensibly a peak Immortal Strong Person, had been utterly incapable of mounting any defense.

Under the potent amplification of the Law of Time.

The saber's speed was so astronomically fast that even the Divine Thoughts of the Immortal Strong Persons were powerless to track its trajectory!

"Schlick!"

Their lips moved, seemingly on the verge of utterance.

But before any sound could escape, their heads were instantaneously severed by the gleaming saber light.

Immediately thereafter.

The Supreme Law of Destruction unleashed its overwhelming power.

In a flash, it extinguished all traces of vitality!

"Boom!"

The four severed heads plummeted to the earth, their eyes wide, still reflecting profound despair and unfulfilled desires.

Who could ever have fathomed.

That such esteemed Immortal Strong Persons would meet their end so ignominiously!

Meanwhile, the other Immortal Strong Persons present were profoundly affected, a shared sense of their own precarious fate washing over them.

Those who managed to reach the divine hall plaza were, without exception, individuals of extraordinary might, far surpassing ordinary Immortal Strong Persons.

Furthermore, among those who had ascended to the Immortal Realm, which among them had not emerged as a formidable being through countless eras of struggle?

Such formidable entities possessed the power to obliterate billions with a mere glance.

Even a Ming Dao Venerable would appear as insignificant as a mere ant in their presence.

Yet, when Lu Yuan executed these individuals, the act was as effortless as industriously gathering vegetables.

It was as though he wasn't confronting five Immortal Strong Persons, but rather a rabble of inconsequential weaklings!

"To fell four Immortal Strong Persons with a single strike, what manner of monstrous entity is he?"

"Truly? These individuals were, after all, Immortal Strong Persons. How could they be utterly devoid of any capacity for counterattack, unless they were mere impostors?"

"Your understanding is lacking. It is not that these individuals were inherently weak, but rather that the Supreme Law employed is excessively overwhelming."

"The Divine Law within the divine hall plaza possesses the power to suppress the majority of Law Origins. Any Tier Nine Immortal Strong Person present would likely only be able to wield a mere one ten-thousandth of their full strength."

"However, the Supreme Law knows no bounds and therefore holds an absolute advantage when it comes to pursuit."

A collective sigh of helplessness swept through the gathered crowd.

The Corpse Emperor stood directly before the entrance to the divine hall, his gaze locked onto the Divine Prison Thunder Saber held by Lu Yuan, a thoughtful expression momentarily gracing his face.

Just as the murmurs of the crowd subsided.

The plaza surrounding the divine hall began to quake subtly, causing intricate Law Dao Patterns to materialize across the ground.

In an instant, the bodies and blood of those four unfortunate individuals were rapidly absorbed and refined by these patterns, vanishing completely.

"Crack!"

Having assimilated the Life Essence True Blood from five Immortal Strong Persons, the previously sealed divine hall door creaked open, revealing a passage wide enough for everyone to enter.

"The divine hall door has opened?"

An uproar of elation erupted from the crowd. Quickly forgetting the preceding events, they surged with all their might towards the divine hall, desperate not to be left behind.

The Corpse Emperor, positioned nearest to the entrance, also showed a flicker of joy. His figure blurred, and he vanished into the divine hall.
