Chapter 438 You must believe in your man!
Xuantian Saint King hated Li Xuanfeng to the core. If it weren't for Li Xuanfeng ruining his plans, he might have already obtained the Legacy of Emperor Xuan.
After experiencing the despair of her Family being annihilated and losing her loved ones, followed by the pain of impending starvation, An Ya's Devouring Heaven Physique might have been stimulated and Awakened.
But all of this was destroyed by Li Xuanfeng.
Separated by a vast distance of four or five light-years, and with a hidden Formation obscuring the view, Xuantian Saint King wasn't certain it was Li Xuanfeng, but this didn't diminish his killing intent towards Li Xuanfeng.
He had firmly locked onto that location.
The same was true for Tianyu Saint King and Xueling Saint King, who were stationed in the other two directions of the Void Realm. The three Saint Kings simultaneously locked onto the Void Realm where Li Xuanfeng was hiding.
If this person wasn't Li Xuanfeng, they wouldn't bother with him.
If it was Li Xuanfeng, the subsequent events would proceed according to their plan.
Let Li Xuanfeng obtain the Star Devouring Source. Once he helps An Ya Awaken her Devouring Heaven Physique and activate the Legacy of Emperor Xuan, he will have served his purpose. Tianyu Saint King and Xueling Saint King wouldn't mind eliminating him along the way.
After all, this person is quite a Prodigy, and he even killed Baiyu Saint and Xuemei Saint.
As for Xuantian Saint King, his killing intent towards Li Xuanfeng was undoubtedly the strongest. The death of Extreme Blade Saint wouldn't make him too angry, but ruining his plans and obstructing his path to becoming stronger had already made him harbor resentment. He wouldn't be at peace until he killed Li Xuanfeng.
He was already prepared to strike Li Xuanfeng down with a single palm the moment the Devouring Heaven Physique Awakened and the Legacy of Emperor Xuan was activated.
At the same same time the three Saint Kings locked onto Li Xuanfeng's position, several other powerful individuals near the Void Realm also cast their gaze towards Li Xuanfeng's location.
These were all Saints attracted by the news of the Star Devouring Source, a total of four.
Among them were an old man and a woman in colorful robes. If Li Xuanfeng saw them, he certainly wouldn't find them unfamiliar.
These two were precisely Star Mist Saint and Cloud Mist Saint from the Blazing Star Domain.
Strictly speaking, the preciousness of the Star Devouring Source couldn't compare to the Hundred-Zhan Star River Condensation, but it was still considered a rare treasure. Coming to check the situation wouldn't result in any loss.
If they could contend for it, it would naturally be a good thing; if not, there would be no impact.
However, after arriving at the Void Realm, both Star Mist Saint and Cloud Mist Saint discovered something amiss.
The Star Devouring Source did indeed exist. It was currently inside a desolate planet within the Void Realm, quietly staying there like a black hole, devouring the already scarce energy of the desolate planet.
Yet, when they approached, they were blocked by a powerful invisible Starry Sky Great Formation. Both of them sensed trouble and didn't dare to act rashly.
The news of the Star Devouring Source spread so widely and so far, only to be sealed by an invisible Formation in the end. It was hard not to suspect that it was an owned item, deliberately placed there to bait someone.
The Starry Sky Formation was very strong, most likely created by a Saint King. This Formation probably wouldn't open until the target it was meant to bait appeared.
Star Mist Saint and Cloud Mist Saint no longer dared to covet the Star Devouring Source, and the other two Saints who were attracted were also the same.
But none of them left; instead, they retreated to the edge of the Void Realm, wanting to see what was going on.
They wondered who would be worth baiting by an existence suspected to be a Saint King.
Of course, the four Saints also kept their guard up, ready to flee at any moment, fearing that they themselves were the ones being baited.
The recently descended magnificent Heavenly Might attracted the attention of all four Saints.
For Saints, Heavenly Tribulation was all too familiar. The pressure brought by the Heavenly Dao was almost impossible to conceal with a Formation, so half-Saints usually ran to a very distant, uninhabited Star Domain to Undergo Tribulation, the farther the better.
In the Universe, the commotion during the descent of Heavenly Tribulation was even more dazzling than a supernova explosion. With a Saint's keen perception, it was difficult to ignore.
"Someone is about to Undergo Tribulation. I wonder who it is."
Cloud Mist Saint hid in the Void Realm, gazing towards Li Xuanfeng's location.
A half-Saint was not worth mentioning to a Saint, but Undergoing Tribulation was still somewhat interesting to watch. If one couldn't pass the Heavenly Tribulation, they would turn to dust; if they did, the Star Realm would gain another Saint.
In the vast Star Realm, there were only so many Saints, each with a name and surname, and everyone could call out each other's names.
Of course, except for outsiders like Leng Wuyan and Li Xuanfeng, especially this monster Li Xuanfeng, who could actually Breakthrough to half-Saint in battle, and kill Myriad Fire Saint right in front of her and Star Mist Saint.
It simply overturned Cloud Mist Saint's understanding of Prodigies and Prodigies.
Moreover, Li Xuanfeng was precisely her favorite type. His golden, purest Qi and blood power had always made her yearn for him, but unfortunately, she wanted to devour Li Xuanfeng but couldn't.
"Could this person be him?"
A thought suddenly popped into Cloud Mist Saint's mind.
"It shouldn't be. It hasn't been even a year since his last battlefield Breakthrough to half-Saint. Even if he's an unparalleled Prodigy, it's impossible for him to attract Heavenly Tribulation now, right?"
"And, it shouldn't be such a coincidence to meet him here."
Cloud Mist Saint thought to herself.
Tongtian Tower.
Top floor space.
With his cultivation and Soul reaching saturation, and his Chaos Golden Bones finally Breaking through to the fifth stage, Li Xuanfeng's current strength could not only be described as invincible below Saint King, but he could already stand shoulder to shoulder with a Saint King!
Facing an Early Stage Saint King alone, it was still unknown who would win or lose.
"It's time. The suppression of my aura has reached its limit, and Heavenly Tribulation could descend forcefully at any moment. Before that, I must get my hands on the Star Devouring Source."
Li Xuanfeng's gaze pierced through the Tongtian Tower, through the layers of hidden Formations he had set up, and looked towards the Void Realm four or five light-years away.
"Senior Leng, after I obtain the Star Devouring Source, the matter of helping Xiao Ya Awaken her Devouring Heaven Physique will be entrusted to you."
Li Xuanfeng withdrew his gaze and looked at Leng Wuyan.
"You are going to…"
Leng Wuyan's heart suddenly tightened. Although Li Xuanfeng's level of being a Prodigy couldn't be judged by common sense, worrying about the person she loved was entirely an instinct.
When Li Xuanfeng took the Star Devouring Source, the Saint Kings might not make things difficult for him, and might even open the door for him.
But once An Ya's Devouring Heaven Physique Awakened and the Legacy of Emperor Xuan was activated, the three Saint Kings would most likely attack him.
"Since they want to use my hand to activate the Legacy, then we'll see if they have the strength to receive it."
Li Xuanfeng had a confident smile on his face.
Regardless of the other two Saint Kings for now, there would inevitably be a battle between Li Xuanfeng and Xuantian Saint King.
This person had treated An Ya so cruelly, and Li Xuanfeng would definitely settle this score.
"Xiao Ya doesn't want to Awaken any Physique. Xiao Ya only wants Brother Xuanfeng to be safe and sound!"
An Ya, at some unknown moment, hugged Li Xuanfeng's leg. The little girl looked up at Li Xuanfeng with teary eyes. Although she didn't know what powerful enemies Li Xuanfeng would face, she didn't want Li Xuanfeng to take risks for her.
An Ya could also tell from Leng Wuyan's expression that Li Xuanfeng was definitely not facing ordinary enemies.
It was Li Xuanfeng who saved her during the most desperate and darkest time of her life, and it was Li Xuanfeng and Leng Wuyan who slowly led her out of sorrow, helping her find the meaning and courage to live again.
To An Ya, Li Xuanfeng and Leng Wuyan were the most important people to her, and she didn't want either of them to risk themselves for her.
"Don't worry, Xiao Ya. Do you believe in your brother?"
Li Xuanfeng rubbed An Ya's little head.
"Mhm."
An Ya wiped away her tears and nodded.
Of course, she believed in Li Xuanfeng.
"Brother will definitely act only when he has absolute certainty. Stay with big sister and watch brother deal with the bad guys who hurt you."
Li Xuanfeng wiped An Ya's tears, then picked her up and placed her in Leng Wuyan's arms.
"Senior Leng, keep this rune with you, just in case."
A shining rune floated out from Li Xuanfeng's Sea of Consciousness.
This was a powerful rune left to him by Lian Yuezhou, enough to deal with a Saint King.
Leng Wuyan didn't speak, but just looked at him with a determined expression, then slowly shook her head.
This was Li Xuanfeng's trump card; how could she take it!
"Listen to me, you have to believe in your man!"
Li Xuanfeng, without explanation, grabbed Leng Wuyan's jade hand, directly forced out a drop of fingertip blood, let it merge into the rune, and then forcibly pressed the rune into Leng Wuyan's Sea of Consciousness space.
Ding! Leng Wuyan obtained a Saint King Rune, a hundredfold return, and you obtained a Great Saint Rune!
