437: Kill Through the Silver Sea

These matters were still very far from Xun Xiuyuan; at this moment, he had already crossed the Void Realm and arrived at the border of the Silver Sea Universe.

This was the first time Xun Xiuyuan had approached the base of the Silver Sea Universe from such a close distance. He stood in the Void Realm, and wherever his gaze fell, there was only vastness and boundlessness.

When he had returned from the Silver Sea Secret Realm before, he had seen this base from a great distance, but at that time, it was too far away. He could only see a blur of light and shadow, like viewing a mountain through clouds and mist, unable to see its full form.

Only now, when he was close in person, did Xun Xiuyuan truly understand what True Person Yuan Ling meant when he said, "The base of the Silver Sea Universe is very large."

Even with his current cultivation Realm, looking out, he still could not see where the end of this base lay. It stretched across the starry sky like an independent Small World.

Even when he fully unleashed his immense Divine Sense, he was completely unable to fully envelop this area.

However, to Xun Xiuyuan, this meant nothing at all.

His goal was clear and definite; the obstacles before him were merely a shallow ditch on his path forward.

Facing the towering fortress that crouched like a giant beast, Xun Xiuyuan turned a blind eye and charged straight forward without the slightest hesitation.

He did not even use his most powerful physical strength, but instead directly activated the Dream of a Thousand Years Mind-Cultivation Technique. An illusory and Ling Li Aura erupted from within him, like a long rainbow piercing the sun, cleaving a path forward for him.

At this moment, Xun Xiuyuan's combat power was comparable to an eight-system powerhouse. Unless an existence in the Guiyi Realm personally took action, he could find almost no rivals within this base of the Silver Sea Universe.

The first person to appear and block him was actually an old acquaintance—Leven.

As the Minister of the Combat Department of the Silver Sea Universe, the moment Leven detected someone attacking the fortress, he received an urgent report.

He immediately used the internal teleportation array and arrived at this border fortress at the first possible moment.

In the Cosmic Abyss, Leven had met Xun Xiuyuan once, but at that time, Xun Xiuyuan was still very weak and could not catch his eye at all.

Later, in several incidents, Xun Xiuyuan's name gradually spread, and Leven had also seen video footage of Xun Xiuyuan from his brother, Lai Wu.

Therefore, the moment their eyes met, Leven clearly recognized that the Great Saint with the rainbow-like Aura before him was indeed Xun Xiuyuan.

However, Leven did not feel afraid because of this. In his intelligence reports, Xun Xiuyuan was still a top-tier powerhouse with strength comparable to a Six-Element Saint King; however, such a Realm was not enough to make him feel afraid.

Leven quickly made a detailed report of the current critical battle situation to his superiors and urgently requested that the rear send reinforcements.

This was because, within the entire fortress, almost all of the soldiers under his command had already sacrificed their lives, and the battlefield was silent as death.

After decisively completing his tactical deployment, Leven did not hesitate and charged straight toward Xun Xiuyuan—and then, everything came to an abrupt halt.

Xun Xiuyuan just lifted a hand, seemingly casually. The next moment, this hand had firmly gripped Leven's neck, as if he had voluntarily rushed forward to let the other party capture him.

At that very instant, Leven understood that this person's comprehension of the Law of Space was far beyond what he could reach.

And what made his heart tremble even more was Xun Xiuyuan's unfathomable strength.

The moment he was restrained by him, Leven felt the strength in his entire body recede like a tide. He could not make any resistance, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Until this moment, a look of unprecedented terror finally appeared in Leven's eyes.

Nuke and a group of Saint Kings quickly arrived at the scene. Their movements were swift and orderly, clearly well-prepared.

However, when their eyes fell upon Leven, who was firmly controlled by Xun Xiuyuan, looks of shock and disbelief could not help but appear on everyone's faces.

Leven was a true top-tier expert in the Silver Sea Universe, and his strength was obvious to all. Precisely because of this, he was able to sit firmly on the throne of Minister of the Combat Department and was deeply respected by all.

In the entire Silver Sea Universe, apart from the leader Nuke himself and Lai Wu, who had defected and left in his early years, Leven's combat power could almost be said to be invincible, with no one able to rival him.

But the scene at this moment made all the Saint Kings feel baffled—Leven was actually completely powerless to resist, held by Xun Xiuyuan with one hand like a weak little chick, unable to move at all.

Even more astonishing was that the people of the Silver Sea Universe were born with powerful bodies, far from comparable to ordinary cultivators, while Xun Xiuyuan's figure appeared much smaller by comparison.

It was like a newborn baby lifting an adult giant without any effort, the movement relaxed and easy, as if it took no effort at all.

The entire scene was filled with an indescribable sense of weirdness; it both defied common sense and made one's hair stand on end.

As the leader, Nuke's resilience and will far exceeded the Phantom Poison King's. This was mainly because he had never personally experienced Xun Xiuyuan's cruel ravaging and lacked that deeply ingrained fear.

Therefore, the moment he witnessed Leven being restrained, Nuke did not hesitate and immediately ordered all the Saint Kings to attack collectively, attempting to besiege Xun Xiuyuan by sharing their strength.

Unfortunately, the outcome was already destined—the Saint Kings suffered heavy casualties; some died on the spot, others were severely injured and fell to the ground, with no power to fight back.

Xun Xiuyuan's goal remained clear and cold: he was only there to obtain more exotic beast value and accumulate lottery attempts; he had no interest in other trivial matters.

Throughout the entire process, he did not utter a single word, merely executing his plan mechanically.

After completely clearing out one fortress, he did not stop for a moment and instantly teleported to the next target location.

As for Nuke, this former leader had already perished under a casual slash from Xun Xiuyuan, without even the chance to struggle.

Leven witnessed the tragic deaths of his clansmen with his own eyes. His heart was filled with pain and anger, and he struggled desperately to break free from his restraints, yet all these efforts were ultimately in vain.

He could only watch helplessly as his compatriots fell into pools of blood, powerless to change this cruel reality.

Xun Xiuyuan spent a long time completely purging every fortress in the base of the Silver Sea Universe; he ruthlessly annihilated all resistance forces.

It could be said that apart from Leven, whom he held in his hand, the few survivors of the Silver Sea people in the entire base were very scarce; almost the entire army had been wiped out.

At this moment, Leven had completely given up struggling. Even though Xun Xiuyuan was no longer restraining him, he still stood blankly in place like a walking corpse, his eyes empty, as if he had lost all vitality and consciousness.

Xun Xiuyuan's cold and ruthless killing behavior had deeply terrified Leven, making him unable to understand this extreme method of revenge.

Xun Xiuyuan, however, just smiled lightly, his tone carrying a hint of sarcasm: "What? You're scared by this? In the Cosmic Abyss, your Silver Sea Universe once brutally murdered hundreds of thousands of our Yuan Ling Universe Initial Saints in a single day. At that time, our Yuan Ling Universe had just stepped into the Cosmic Battlefield and had no prior grievances with your Silver Sea Universe. You haven't forgotten that, have you?"
