# Chapter 51: World Devourer

The additional benefits of a max-level insect nest were something not anticipated before. If all the nest's output were sold to Reincarnation Paradise, then every 30 natural days would yield 1,180 ounces of Space-Time Force, which was quite considerable income.

When selling items to Reincarnation Paradise, there were generally two situations. The first was selling for Soul Coins, in which case there was basically no need to consider it—Reincarnation Paradise would definitely give a rock-bottom price. The second situation was selling for Space-Time Force.

This type of sale required certain basic permissions to trigger, such as having a Reincarnation Imprint level exceeding LV.70, or having Reincarnation Paradise reputation above a certain threshold, or having received A+ or above World Comprehensive Evaluations a certain number of times. Only after meeting these basic conditions could the Space-Time Force settlement method be triggered.

This selling method generally turned a profit. Even if it didn't, it would be at a reasonable market price, with at least no risk of loss.

The four types of materials that his insect nest could produce: [Life Energy Crystal] could be used to concoct potions, but Su Xiao didn't need this item. He had a substitute with the same effect at half the price, namely [Life Polymer Substance N]. Sometimes, more expensive materials didn't necessarily produce higher quality potions. Using the most reasonable cost to concoct the most effective potion was also part of Alchemy.

[World Crystal] was also useless to Su Xiao. World Force was occasionally useful, but [World Crystal], as the superior product of World Force, was generally used for high-level barriers.

[Strange Insect Embryo Egg] and [Radiance Source Matter] went without saying. Therefore, selling all these materials to Reincarnation Paradise was the most profitable option.

Now that Bio Energy was no longer lacking, Su Xiao brought Bubu Wang and Baha, following the passages inside the Mother Nest downward, arriving at the underground mine. Following the main branch of the mine all the way down, they reached the entrance of the Silver Queen's insect nest.

When Su Xiao walked into the Silver Queen's nest, he found that the Silver Queen had recovered the aloof aura from their first meeting. This was clearly her being prepared to face Su Xiao not honoring their agreement and killing her on the spot. Seeing this, Baha, perched on Su Xiao's shoulder, started brewing mischief in his belly. He said:

"Ready to hit the road?"

Hearing this, though the Silver Queen was filled with rage, she remained silent.

"Just kidding. The teleportation process might be a bit bumpy. Be mentally prepared."

Baha's words still didn't move the Silver Queen, until Su Xiao took out dozens of bottles of Insect Race Potions and placed them on the platform. The Silver Queen's expression softened considerably.

With Bubu Wang and Baha's cooperation, Su Xiao quickly set up a teleportation array. He formed a [Sealing Blade] in his hand and stabbed it into the node of the teleportation array. With this item, he could teleport to the outside world.

"Have coordinates?"

Su Xiao spoke. Hearing this, the Silver Queen traced a coordinate in the air with her finger. This was the world where she had risen, and also the place she most wanted to return to at this stage. Only by returning there could she possibly ascend to become a Dominator.

Su Xiao took out a Space Lock Plate and set the coordinates provided by the Silver Queen on it. He found that the destination world was quite far from Eternal Light World.

After thinking for a moment, Su Xiao took out a compressed bottle of Devourer Source Blood, collected after killing the Star Devourer. Originally, this was a good item, but unfortunately, the Star Devourer had been eroded by the Scarlet Scepter. Using this to provide energy for the teleportation array would definitely be fine.

Su Xiao had the Silver Queen stand on the teleportation array. He pressed one hand on the Silver Queen, and Crystal Layer began to spread, covering a very thick layer before he stopped. This made the Silver Queen ask: "Is this teleportation very dangerous?"

"Of course not."

After completely enveloping the Silver Queen in Crystal Layer, Su Xiao activated the teleportation array.

"Wait—"

Boom!!

The explosive sound of the Law-Destroying Teleportation Array made Su Xiao's ears ring. He tilted his head, covered his ears, and stepped back two paces before the world before his eyes stopped having afterimages.

With his extensive experience using the [Law-Destroying Teleportation Array], Su Xiao could determine that with that level of protection, the Silver Queen would not be in mortal danger. As for the teleportation experience, that was unclear.

...

Sea of Sand, Skeleton Island.

This island, located at the deepest part of the Sea of Sand, seemed to be composed of bones, especially at the island's center, where there was a giant skull hundreds of meters high.

This island was the entrance to the Nightmare Seal that sealed the Sand King. This place had a primitive tribe that could use Scarlet Power, called the Blood Tribe. The giant skull at the island's center was the symbol of the Blood Tribe.

The Blood Tribe's architectural style was primitive. The outer perimeter was wooden fences plastered with mud, and the residential buildings were the same, presenting an overall triangular structure.

At the center of the residential area was the great bonfire, above which was the Blood Disc. From this, it could be seen that the Blood Tribe and the Scarlet Faction had different attitudes toward the Scarlet Scepter. The former was more about worship, while the latter was respect born from fear.

The Blood Tribe was vastly different from the Scarlet Faction. The Scarlet Faction was the force of the Scarlet Monarch, and its members were all subordinates of the Scarlet Monarch.

As for the Blood Tribe, they took the Scarlet Scepter as their totem faith, worshipping Scarlet Power. As for the Scarlet Monarch, the Blood Tribe not only had no respect but was hostile, after all, the Scarlet Monarch had been holding their totem item all along, so naturally, they wouldn't have a good attitude toward him.

But at this moment, the Blood Tribe was deathly silent. At the great bonfire, fierce blood flames were burning. The tribe's Great Chieftain lay among incomplete corpses, his throat slit, blood and froth flowing from his mouth, making unwilling gurgling sounds. His dark red eyes were wide open.

Inside the large stone house at the innermost part of the tribe, corpses were everywhere. A trail of blood extended to the innermost area. Wolf Swordsman Losna was leaning against the wall, blood dripping down her chin. Light footsteps at the door made her look up at the hesitant World Child Yusha standing outside.

"Come closer. I don't have much strength left to shout loud enough for you to hear outside the door."

Losna spoke weakly. Her silver-blue pupils were somewhat dim. As for her story, she didn't seem prepared to tell others. Everyone had their own secrets.

Memories flooded her mind—Losna completely eroded by Scarlet, the burning blood flames, her daughter lying in a pool of blood. These scenes flashed through Losna's mind in an instant.

In a daze, Losna seemed to see this scene again, but soon, her gaze refocused, looking at Yusha before her.

"Back then... it was here."

Losna pointed to the ground not far away, but Yusha across from her couldn't understand what she was saying.

"To control the power of Scarlet, I came here many years ago. Unfortunately, I fell into a trap last time."

Losna opened her hand, and a hollow round core the size of a Dragon Flame appeared in her palm. This was the secret technique that could suppress Scarlet Power. She had come here many years ago to pursue this item, but was deceived by the Blood Tribe. So many years had passed, and she had prepared everything to destroy this tribe. Now, she had indeed done so.

"Swallow it."

Losna spoke. Yusha hesitated, not knowing what this was, so she asked weakly: "Can I swallow it later?"

"Immediately. Swallow it. Otherwise, I'll help you."

"Alright."

Yusha had no choice but to swallow the hollow round core. Swallowing this thing raw was indeed somewhat difficult. Yusha choked until her face turned red, then after swallowing, she gasped for air.

"Listen. Don't interrupt me."

Losna grabbed Yusha's arm and continued: "You're not exactly a puppet. When you were very young, you should have died. I saved you and gave you a puppet's heart. Don't thank me. I'm not a good person. You just look a bit like my daughter. It's your own good luck."

Saying this, Losna's aura grew weaker. She continued: "Law Destroyer Bai Ye will come to find you soon. Don't resist. Whatever he tells you to do, do it. But also don't trust him. After helping him finish his business, stay as far away from him as possible. Now, any questions, ask quickly."

"Didn't you say yesterday that you used to be from the Law Destruction Faction? If so, why should I be wary of a Law Destroyer?"

"Uh~ Law Destroyers are people you can entrust with trust, people who can defeat world-destroying enemies. However, each of them has their own... unique code of conduct. Hmm, they're all quite unique."

Saying this, Losna's expression was somewhat complicated, as if she didn't know how to express it. But she then turned serious and said: "This current Law Destroyer is very dangerous. He killed three of the Four Giants, and the fourth barely escaped in a sorry state."

"Then isn't he... a reliable good person?"

"Not necessarily. He could scheme to kill three of the Four Giants, who are world-destroying calamities. If he wants to scheme against a young person with your life experience, you're finished. So, stay away from this Law Destroyer."

"Hmm, I'll remember."

"Also, about the Wolf Sword Technique, I've thought it over. You'd better not continue practicing."

Hearing this, Yusha looked puzzled. She really liked the Wolf Sword Technique Losna had taught her. Not only was it powerful, but it also combined the combat sense of strength and beauty. So she asked: "Why shouldn't I continue practicing? Is there a risk in practicing this swordsmanship?"

"Not really. Your swordsmanship talent is pretty useless, so don't waste time."

"?"

Yusha looked at Losna in confusion, then turned away indignantly.

"But in terms of Moonlight Power, you have more talent than me, much more. I even suspect your talent in Moonlight Power could reach the level of the Moon Wolf Clan. Work hard on this aspect."

"Hmm."

"Soon, a guy wearing a mask will come to take you away. That's my older brother. And... what else was there? Ah~ I forgot. Anyway, I finally don't have to seal this damned Scarlet anymore. Let me sleep for a while..."

Losna gradually lowered her head. Seeing this, Yusha suddenly felt a strong sense of sadness welling up. With a sobbing tone, she urgently said: "Don't die!"

"What?"

Losna looked up, squinting slightly, and said: "I've lost too much blood. Just sleeping for a while. I won't die."

After saying this, Losna leaned against the wall behind her and gradually closed her eyes, until she completely lost signs of life.

No one noticed that on Yusha's forearm under her sleeve, the golden lightning strike patterns had become more pronounced.

...

Base Camp, open space before the insect nest.

Demon Flame Dragon Barbatos spread its wings and landed. If observed closely now, Barbatos was slightly larger than before, with a ring of dark gold circles in its pupils. This was a characteristic of reaching Level 3 after being boosted by War Lord.

All of their Demon Flame Dragons had been replaced with enhanced versions. The insect nest absorbed World Force, converted it into Bio Energy, and then cultivated Demon Flame Dragons. Not only that, but earlier, after their insect race level reached max, they had gained 5 Evolution Points, all used to enhance the Demon Flame Dragons.

This resulted in needing 800 Bio Energy to cultivate one Demon Flame Dragon now. Fortunately, they no longer lacked Bio Energy. After absorbing a large amount of World Force, the number of their Demon Flame Dragons had reached 350,000, an unprecedented scale.

Having all 350,000 Demon Flame Dragons reach Level 3 was difficult. Su Xiao had tried having the Demon Flame Dragons fight each other, but the result was that it didn't increase combat experience. This form of combat couldn't pass notarization judgment. As for Barbatos and some Demon Flame Dragons, they had only leveled up by clearing out various monsters in the Erosion Rain Land.

Although not all Demon Flame Dragons had reached Level 3, the quantity was 3.5 times the estimate. Moreover, because the Bio Energy used was sufficiently high-grade, the insect race's strength was 20% stronger than estimated. Looking at it this way, this lineup was much stronger than originally planned. If the original plan's strength against the World Devourer was 100, then now it had reached at least 280 to over 300.

Everything was ready. Su Xiao controlled Demon Flame Dragon Barbatos to take flight, followed by the sky-covering Demon Flame Dragon army, heading toward the direction of the World Devourer.

The wind whistled past his ears. Although he had prepared the lineup to deal with the World Devourer, Su Xiao had a feeling of unease. The reason was that for so many days, the World Devourer had been sleeping. He didn't believe the World Devourer hadn't noticed the situation in the Wild Growth Land. Yet, under these circumstances, it still chose to complete this sleep. This could only mean that the World Devourer didn't consider the insect race a threat.

When Su Xiao arrived at the central area of the Wild Growth Land, he saw a giant pit several kilometers in diameter. Inside this giant pit was surging darkness, like a giant vortex. In the midst of this vortex, the World Devourer could be faintly seen.

Individual World Devourers weren't large, similar in size to ordinary flying insects, appearing iron-gray with three pairs of wings. Because the wings had a metallic texture, they made a buzzing sound when flying. If hundreds of thousands of World Devourers vibrated their wings simultaneously, it would be enough to render most living beings unable to move, or even cause death from it.

The number of World Devourers, of course, wasn't just hundreds of thousands. In Eternal Light World, the number of World Devourers had to be counted in the billions. The exact number was hard to estimate, but one thing was certain: World Devourers couldn't be too far apart from each other. Otherwise, this thing would have long been invincible, and no one could eliminate it.

The reason for this was that World Devourers had no distinction between main body and split body. Even if only one World Devourer remained, it could rapidly expand through splitting and quickly return to its peak specifications.

The World Devourers in the dark pit, upon sensing the Demon Flame Dragons' arrival, began to gradually become active. This caused the darkness enveloping them to be rapidly gnawed and devoured.

Under the dim yellow sky, the sky-covering Demon Flame Dragons circled and danced above. A few golden daylight rays filtered through the gray clouds, creating an epic sense of grandeur.

Whoosh!!

Dragon Flame was unceremoniously sprayed down, plunging into the giant pit below. The platinum-gold Dragon Flame immediately engulfed the World Devourers, crackling as it burned. But in the next second, something terrifying happened. The World Devourers in the bottomless pit surged up against the flame. This wasn't pushing back the Dragon Flame, but devouring it. Even more horrifying, the World Devourers were using the energy absorbed from the Dragon Flame to rapidly split more of themselves.

With a roar, countless World Devourers surged out from the bottomless pit. This scene was like a metal magma erupting from underground, shooting straight upward.

The World Devourers formed a sky-piercing pillar several kilometers thick. The surrounding hundreds of thousands of Demon Flame Dragons all sprayed Dragon Flame at this pillar.

Although quite a bit of Dragon Flame was absorbed, with hundreds of thousands of Dragon Flames, even the World Devourers couldn't absorb all of it. Therefore, areas of the pillar kept turning red-hot, and then the World Devourers in those areas scattered and fell, their bodies glowing red as they gradually turned into metal powder residue.

In just a few dozen seconds, the sky turned iron-black. At the same time, except for Su Xiao, all contractors, hunters, Death Rangers, Battle Angels, etc., in this world received warning prompts from the Void Tree, with various warnings continuously flooding the screen.

The Void Tree also notarized a temporary regulation: at this stage, all contractors could immediately return to their respective Paradise factions. Ongoing tasks would be considered as having basic completion status, and they would receive the most basic standard task rewards.

In a very short time, only one-tenth of the contractors in Eternal Light World remained. Mainly, the constant flood of scarlet warning prompts was too frightening. From fighting from First Rank to Ninth Rank, they had never seen or heard of such a situation.

At this moment, if one looked up at the sky, they would find that nearly half of Eternal Light World's sky had turned iron-gray, covered by the World Devourers. A terrifying buzzing sound came from above, causing many mutated monsters in this world to instantly explode into blood mist.

All defensive barriers of Black Iron City activated. As for the already empty Sanctuary City, under this terrifying buzzing, it was shattered into dust.

The World Devourers covering half the sky began to converge and aggregate. After a few minutes, the World Devourers also transformed into a flying dragon, but one with a wingspan of hundreds of kilometers. Close observation revealed it was composed of individual World Devourers.

The World Devourer spread its wings, opened its massive mouth, and sprayed metallic Dragon Flame at the Demon Flame Dragons below that had been continuously spraying Dragon Flame at it. This wasn't really metallic Dragon Flame, but relatively looser World Devourers.

Where these Dragon Flame-like World Devourers swept past, any Demon Flame Dragon they touched was instantly devoured by the World Devourers, leaving at most some broken dragon wings falling.

For a time, hundreds of thousands of Demon Flame Dragons were no match for the World Devourer, showing signs of being completely annihilated.

Just as the World Devourer scattered and surged downward, streams of dazzling golden Dragon Flame sprayed into the World Devourer swarm. This dazzling golden Dragon Flame was particularly conspicuous, and looking directly at it felt like it would burn one's eyes.

The Demon Flame Dragons that sprayed this kind of flame had dark golden pupils, indicating they were ultimate Flame Dragons that had reached Level 3.

The World Devourer, which had been suppressing the Demon Flame Dragon Legion, immediately suffered large-scale damage. Patches of World Devourers were scorched into liquid, falling and turning into metal residue.

Faced with this situation, the World Devourer didn't choose to disperse. Instead, all World Devourers converged together and fully compressed.

With a buzz, billions of World Devourers compressed into a round core several meters in diameter. The surrounding space cracked and popped from the compression force. The Dragon Flame sprayed on it could only gradually make the core red-hot.

Boom!!

The round core exploded, creating a blast impact. One-third of their Demon Flame Dragons were caught in it. The powerful kinetic energy turned these Demon Flame Dragons into flesh and blood fragments, which were then devoured and absorbed by the World Devourers, becoming energy for the World Devourers to expand their numbers.

The World Devourers, which had just been reduced, quickly returned to their initial numbers in a short time. Having learned from the previous disadvantage, the World Devourers specifically targeted those Demon Flame Dragons that could spray dazzling golden Dragon Flame. More World Devourers surged toward these types of Demon Flame Dragons, devouring them completely.

Su Xiao stood on Barbatos's dragon back. Barbatos was continuously spraying dazzling golden Dragon Flame, but against the overall number of World Devourers, this was a drop in the bucket.

After regaining the upper hand, the World Devourer turned its spearhead toward Su Xiao. Like a metal gale, the World Devourers surged toward Su Xiao.

Boom!

A plasma cannon pillar slanted through the sky and earth. It was the enhanced Titan Giant Beast.

This plasma cannon pierced through the World Devourer swarm, causing the swarm that had been surging toward Su Xiao to suddenly converge.

Boom! Boom! Boom!...

Dense plasma cannons began bombarding the World Devourers, causing the swarm to completely converge. It seemed the World Devourer was losing ground, but in reality, it wasn't. The World Devourer swarm formed a vortex, which then transformed into a black hole.

With a thunderous roar, everything around was pulled toward this World Devourer black hole. Over half of the Demon Flame Dragons were sucked in within a short time. Over a hundred thousand Demon Flame Dragons were instantly shredded and absorbed.

After a violent explosion, the entire ground of the Wild Growth Land collapsed, breaking into pieces of earth and giant rocks of various sizes, flying toward the World Devourer black hole above.

Plasma cannons fired into the World Devourer black hole one after another, but barely caused any ripples. Instead, the Titan Giant Beast on the ground was pulled up, accelerating as it rose, finally crashing into the World Devourer black hole and being instantly devoured.

An even more terrifying scene appeared. Their insect nest was also pulled from the ground, along with the Silver Queen's nest below, lifted out and heading straight for the World Devourer black hole, eventually being devoured as well.

From the start of the battle until now, their Demon Flame Dragon numbers had been continuously replenished. But after the insect nest was destroyed, the replenishment of Demon Flame Dragons abruptly stopped.

The World Devourer black hole continued for a while longer before finally subsiding. Looking at the Wild Growth Land now, several layers of ground were gone, with the overall height dropped by at least ten thousand meters.

With a buzz, the World Devourer swarm dispersed again, forming a metal dragon. Ignoring the Dragon Flame sprayed at it, it began devouring the remaining over a hundred thousand Demon Flame Dragons.

At this point, Barbatos displayed extraordinary flying skills, both avoiding the World Devourer's attacks and continuously spraying Dragon Flame at the swarm. But no matter how one looked at the situation, the World Devourer was steadily winning.

The sky roared without cease, dragon roars continued, and time quietly passed in this chaos. Several hours later, the Demon Flame Dragon Legion still held on against the World Devourer's attacks, though precarious. But more and more max-level Demon Flame Dragons that could spray dazzling golden Dragon Flame appeared. Fighting the World Devourer, their combat experience was skyrocketing.

Ten hours passed. The Demon Flame Dragon Legion remained precarious, but the number of Demon Flame Dragons that could spray top-tier Dragon Flame had noticeably increased. It was worth noting that the World Devourer's efficiency in killing Demon Flame Dragons had always been very high, and it hadn't stopped for a moment.

Twenty hours passed. The Demon Flame Dragon Legion was still the same as before, seemingly precarious but also seemingly endless. The only change was that among the over a hundred thousand Demon Flame Dragons, half could now spray top-tier Dragon Flame. This meant they now had over 80,000 max-level Demon Flame Dragons.

The reason for this was that this morning, Su Xiao had decided to move the main insect nest to the Elemental Zone. That was a cylindrical pit terrain with a diameter of several hundred kilometers and a depth of nearly a hundred thousand meters. With the Titan Giant Beast there, it was easy to defend and hard to attack. More importantly, the World Force there was more concentrated.

In other words, from the start of the battle, their main insect nest had been quietly cultivating Demon Flame Dragons. When there were casualties in the Wild Growth Land, they would gradually reinforce, keeping the number of Demon Flame Dragons at around a hundred thousand.

To prevent the World Devourer from determining the location of their base camp through the direction of these reinforcements, these Demon Flame Dragons flew in from all directions.

Compared to the start of the battle, the World Devourer was no longer so dominant. Especially as more and more max-level Demon Flame Dragons appeared. And from the very beginning, one thing was certain: given the World Devourer's speed, it couldn't actively escape. This was also why Su Xiao had mainly developed Demon Flame Dragons—they could tank, fight, and pursue. Combined with the 90% flight speed boost from War Lord, the World Devourer was even less able to escape.

By this point, the World Devourer's defeat was only a matter of time. Or rather, the World Devourer's defeat was because after arriving in Eternal Light World, rising again and even surpassing its former peak, it had somewhat underestimated the insect race. So it chose to complete its sleep transformation to reach its strongest.

Their Demon Flame Dragon numbers grew more and more, from over a hundred thousand to over two hundred thousand, all the way to a peak of 600,000!

A full 600,000 Demon Flame Dragons formed an encirclement flame ring, spraying Dragon Flame at the World Devourer. This caused the World Devourer swarm to shrink more and more, until finally only a large cluster several kilometers in diameter remained.

These World Devourers surged, trying to break out, but surrounded by 600,000 max-level Demon Flame Dragons spraying Dragon Flame, the dazzling golden Dragon Flame seemed to burn even the daylight in the sky.

It was worth mentioning that among the over a hundred contractors originally in this world, except for a few, all had chosen to leave this world, going to the space transfer station to wait for this world progress to end, complete the ranking settlement, and then return to their respective Paradise factions.

Su Xiao controlled Barbatos to fly to the highest point. Looking down now, he could see countless Demon Flame Dragons spraying Dragon Flame at the World Devourer swarm, which had shrunk to only about a hundred meters in diameter.

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred. The World Devourer swarm suddenly stopped surging, then formed a World Devourer black hole. This black hole, though not large, was exceptionally rapid, instantly exploding and swallowing half of the Demon Flame Dragons. The black hole subsided, reforming into World Devourers.

After devouring a massive amount of energy, the World Devourer swarm expanded again with a buzz, even approaching the scale at the start of the battle. But under the Dragon Flame spraying of 300,000 max-level Demon Flame Dragons, the World Devourer's just-revived momentum gradually weakened, and the swarm's scale began to decrease again.

Fifty hours into the battle, under the Dragon Flame spraying of over 400,000 max-level Demon Flame Dragons, the World Devourer swarm's scale visibly decreased: a hundred meters, ten meters, five meters, until one meter.

Under the intense pressure of Dragon Flame, the World Devourer swarm, now only the size of a fist, was pressed to the ground, until only one World Devourer remained. This World Devourer wrapped itself in its wings, curled all its legs, and covered its compound eyes.

Under the spraying of dazzling golden Dragon Flames, this World Devourer was pressed into the air by the pressure, then, because Dragon Flame came from all directions, it hovered in midair, continuously enduring the Dragon Flame's scouring.

But even under this level of focused Dragon Flame, this World Devourer only turned red-hot, not burning to ashes. Worse, the space here was now covered with cracks. If the burning continued, this space would directly explode. The chaotic space currents would likely sweep away the World Devourer, teleporting it to an unknown location.

At this point, Su Xiao suddenly understood why the ancestral Law Destroyers often sealed world-destroying beings and world-destroying races into this world. Because when such enemies were at their peak, they were truly too difficult to kill.

Su Xiao issued a mental command, and all Demon Flame Dragons stopped spraying Dragon Flame. The single remaining World Devourer began to fall freely. Barbatos, carrying Su Xiao, swooped past. When Barbatos landed, Su Xiao jumped off the dragon's back.

Hiss hiss hiss~

High-temperature white steam spread from Su Xiao's right hand, which was covered in Crystal Layer. He was holding the World Devourer in one hand. After landing, he took out a prepared sealing box.

Su Xiao had a characteristic: in all situations, he never considered himself the chosen one. He was particularly self-aware. Therefore, in his view, the world-destroying races that the ancestral Law Destroyers often couldn't completely eliminate must have their troublesome aspects. As the saying goes, preparedness prevents calamity. If he really couldn't eliminate it, he would seal it.

Eternal Light World was no longer suitable for sealing this world-destroying race. The space seals here hadn't been maintained for too long. It was already remarkable that they had lasted this long.

Su Xiao forcefully threw the World Devourer in his hand into the sealing box. At this point, the World Devourer was burned red-hot all over, its mobility reduced to the minimum. Even so, once locked in the sealing box, it still banged around violently.

With his proficiency in sealing Original Sin Objects, Su Xiao wouldn't claim his seals were the strongest, but in terms of sealing speed, he was quite confident. Applying various seals to the sealing box, in just ten seconds, the box was covered with 15,300 layers of seals. Good hand feel today. His previous limit was 15,000 layers in ten seconds. Today, he had broken his limit.

Inside the seal now, the World Devourer's aura was still terrifying. Its mental fluctuations seemed to say: 'Law Destroyer, you cannot eliminate me, nor can you seal me forever.'

This wasn't the World Devourer being arrogant. A sealing box with ten thousand layers of seals indeed couldn't seal the World Devourer forever. Therefore, Su Xiao took out the [Book of Original Sin] and sealed the World Devourer, along with the sealing box, into the last page of the [Book of Original Sin]. Soon, the World Devourer's image appeared on the page, along with its information below.

Unlike Brother Molten Gold Demon, the World Devourer, sealed in the [Book of Original Sin], still stared at Su Xiao with its compound eyes, showing no retreat or fear.

Su Xiao closed the [Book of Original Sin]. Although he hadn't eliminated the World Devourer, he still triggered the notarization mechanism of the Legendary Task: Eternal Light Lord, obtaining 30% task completion. This brought the task completion to over 80%.

As for the task requirement of [Eliminate over 90% of world-destroying races in this world], that wasn't a problem. The World Devourer was just powerful, but this world had over twenty world-destroying races. Even if it was powerful, in terms of quantity, it was only one of them. However, the World Devourer corresponded to a high task completion. Eliminating it would account for 50% completion, sealing it would account for 15%. Since Su Xiao had sealed it in the [Book of Original Sin], the judgment naturally surged, earning him 30% task completion.

Regarding eliminating the World Devourer, Su Xiao had only considered the possibility. After actually fighting, he admitted he couldn't do it. Of course, not being able to do it now didn't mean he would never have a way to deal with the World Devourer.

Although the Legendary Task completion hadn't reached 100%, Su Xiao was already satisfied with the current level. Moreover, since there were no other world-destroying races in this world, he chose to complete it.
