Li Chen, now a Heavenly Sovereign, is recognized by Moluo Heavenly Lord, who witnessed Li Chen's past feat of killing an Immortal Emperor as a Celestial King. Despite initial shock at Li Chen's current power and his claim of returning from the Heaven Realm, Moluo decides to befriend Li Chen. Li Chen inquires about a meeting of the Four Realms and learns that King Yilin has already departed, but no news has returned. Suddenly, a spatial rift opens, and void creatures pour out.

"Damn it, with such a large-scale invasion of void creatures, if any of our people returning from the Ancient Battle Realm encounter this, it’s going to be a big problem."

Upon seeing the overwhelming swarm of void creatures emerging from the rift, everyone’s expressions turned grim.

Especially when the three Heavenly Sovereigns of Shen Tian Realm, the highest in cultivation among the group, discovered that there were beings of their same level among the void creatures, their expressions changed drastically.

The most prominent feature of void creatures is their astonishing numbers, while higher-level beings are quite rare. Generally speaking, Fifth or Sixth Rank void creatures are the most seen.

But this time, an Eighth-Rank void creature appeared? Coupled with the thousands of void creatures, this is an absolute disaster for anyone.

Even a king, let alone a heavenly lord, would definitely be devoured without a trace if they return from the Ancient Battle Realm.

"Quick, notify the others to send strong reinforcements. If we don’t eliminate these void creatures, those who haven’t returned from the Ancient Battle Realm will be in great peril," Moluo Heavenly Lord immediately directed at the stalwart saint King.

"Yes!" The stalwart saint King, understanding the severity of the situation, promptly accepted the order.

"Wait." It was at this moment that someone interjected, interrupting them.

Everyone looked somewhat bewildered at the person who spoke.

The one who spoke was none other than Li Chen.

"It’s just a group of void creatures; there’s no need to trouble the soldiers who are fighting and recuperating for the Heaven Realm," Li Chen said, and before anyone else could respond, he stretched out a finger toward the void creatures that had just noticed them and were charging at them with ferocious roars.

"The Wheel of Space-Time."

Without using a Domain Realm or any radiant power, he simply pointed out with one finger.

This one gesture was a Great Divine Power.

It belonged to Li Chen... the Wheel of Space-Time!

Initially, there was just an inconspicuous, small transparent bead, but as it approached the countless void creatures, the bead suddenly expanded without limits.

As if limitless, it filled the entire space around the approaching void creatures when it reached them.

The next moment, all the void creatures, including the Eighth-Rank creature, were sucked into this transparent bead.

Or rather, it was an entire Great Realm.

The Illusory Space-Time Realm.

All who witnessed this couldn’t help but slightly open their mouths in awe.

Even Heavenly Venerable Qingyu was no exception.

What kind of bizarre trick was this?

Trapping all the void creatures with just one finger?

However, this was not the most shocking aspect.

Because Li Chen acted once more.

"Creating such a large opening, are you intending to establish a permanent passage here?" Li Chen glanced at the spatial rift, knowing it led to the living space of the void creatures, as he had been there before.

"Suture."

With a swipe of his hand, the rift was smoothed over as if by an invisible large hand, and the rift vanished instantly.

"Since you’ve come here willingly, consider it my gift to the warriors of the Heaven Realm," Li Chen thought aloud.

Most of his belongings were left at the Palace of the Nether King, except for a few special items. He carried little wealth, but these void creatures, for someone who had comprehended the laws of life and death, presented a perfect experiment.

"Life—Extraction."

"Ssss!!!"

Instantly, within the Illusory Space-Time Realm, countless void creatures let out cries of agony, unable to escape, only able to howl in pain and madness.

"Boom boom boom!" Among them, the Eighth-Rank void creature was the fiercest, awakening earlier from the Illusory Space-Time Realm and frantically attacking the transparent realm’s boundary.

"Behave." Li Chen frowned slightly.

"Death—Entombment."

Black threads instantly emerged from the Eighth-Rank void creature’s body, entangling it at once.

Twisting madly, attempting to sever the black threads, yet they multiplied instead of diminishing.

Simultaneously, the power of Life Extraction was at work, weakening its aura continuously, rendering it increasingly powerless.

Soon, within Li Chen’s Illusory Realm of Divine Abilities, the void creatures vanished into dust, leaving nothing behind.

Meanwhile, at the other end of the Illusory Space-Time Realm, a silvery energy flowed out, forming a gradually enlarging sphere.

"Life energy, not bad, this could be considered a Healing Holy Medicine, most directly replenishing life," Li Chen, a grandmaster of the Dao of Alchemy, recognized the energy’s use at first glance.

Elsewhere, the Illusory Space-Time Realm continued shrinking, withering as the void lifeforms perished.

Eventually, as the last Eighth-Rank void lifeform perished, the entire Illusory Space-Time Realm dissipated with a ’pop’.

The once overwhelming void creatures left no trace at all.

The only remainder was a sphere of energy, exuding an abundant life force palpable from afar.

Moluo Heavenly Lord and others were dumbstruck.

Until now, they were speechless.

What did they witness?

A void creature army vast enough to annihilate a small Heavenly Realm team, was effortlessly eradicated by one person?

Moreover, refining such a vast quantity of life energy alive?

In the next moment, Li Chen pointed a finger, as the Power of Laws surged.

The abundant life energy, under Li Chen’s refining, grew smaller, finally dispersing into countless tiny particles, falling into the Jade Vase Li Chen had prepared.

A bottle of twelve, with hundreds of bottles total...

Li Chen waved his hand, leaving a small portion, the remainder flew towards the other three Heavenly Sovereigns of Shen Tian Realm.

"Please hand these to the Heaven Realm warriors," Li Chen smiled, "Though not Healing Pills, these can replenish life energy. In some circumstances, they’re more useful than simple Healing Pills, even life-saving at critical moments. Please convey my intention."

"Although I, Li Chen, wander alone most of the time, I am in my own way a person of the Heaven Realm. It’s only right to contribute where I can," Li Chen smiled.

Upon hearing this, the three solemnly bowed to Li Chen.

"Then we will thank Brother Red Dust on their behalf."

It was then Li Chen turned to Moluo Heavenly Lord, with a calm smile yet revealing his true intent.

"Now, might I ask Moluo Brother to tell me the location of the Four Realms conference?"
