“This is the strength of an Ultimate Ruler?” Jian Wushuang was surprised.

He had come into contact with an Ultimate Ruler before.

Like Devil Flame, he had been an Ultimate Ruler at his peak.

In the Bone Pupil Galaxy, the Golden Feather Star Lord and Green Flame Star Lord he had met were also Ultimate Rulers.

However, even though he had come into contact with them, he had never really fought with a final realm Ruler. It could even be said that he had never seen a final realm Ruler fight up close.

This caused his judgment of the final realm Ruler’s strength to be slightly off.

He had originally thought that the final realm Ruler and the fifth realm Ruler only had a difference in the power of their divine power and that they had fused an additional principle.

The difference between the two was almost the same as the difference between a fourth-level Ruler and a fifth-level Ruler.

However, now that Jian Wushuang saw an Ultimate Ruler making a move, he instantly understood that it was not the case.

An Ultimate Ruler was much more powerful than a fifth-level Ruler.

Not to mention the power of divine power, just the principles of heaven and earth alone…

A fifth level Ruler needed to fuse eight principles, and an Ultimate Ruler needed to fuse nine principles.

But one had to know that nine was the heaven and earth level.

Fusing nine principles was the pinnacle of all cultivators in the universe.

Once nine principles were fused, it meant that he had reached the highest level in the principles of heaven and earth and had no chance of further improvement. After reaching this level in the same principles, a cultivator’s strength would undergo a qualitative transformation.

This change included all kinds of aspects, but the power of the fusion of the nine Principles alone was ridiculously strong.

For example, the seemingly casual palm of the First Elder of the Thunder God Palace had brought Jian Wushuang endless pressure.

“Humph!”

Jian Wushuang snorted coldly, and the Wuqi Divine Sword in his hand burst out with majestic power.

An extremely violent aura condensed in his hand. It seemed to be able to cut through the sky and cut open the vast universe.

Whoosh!

The huge sword light directly slashed out, carrying Jian Wushuang’s highest understanding of the universe origin of sword principle, his comprehension of the universe principles, and most importantly, the two were perfectly combined.

Jian Wushuang had used the universe principles in the past years and combined them with sword principle to the extreme.

His strength had also reached the extreme and he had just displayed his strongest sword move.

This sword move was the first move of splitting heaven!

The same sword skill had been perfected over tens of thousands of years and was no longer the same as before.

Boom!

The world suddenly shook and the surrounding void seemed unable to withstand the impact of the two terrifying forces and began to shake.

In the blink of an eye, more than half of the mountain where the Blood Thunder Cliff was located disappeared. Previously, when the Blood Thunder Cliff was destroyed by the Devil Flame, there was at least a piece of debris left, but now there was no debris, only the bare mountain wall was left.

Under the impact of the two supreme forces, the giant crystal hand that covered more than half of the Void was broken in the middle. The entire palm was split in half, obviously forcefully split in half by someone.

Whoosh!

Jian Wushuang appeared beside Devil Flame.

“Let’s go,” Jian Wushuang said and then rushed toward the surrounding void with Devil Flame.

After a long while, the void slowly calmed down and the overwhelming power dissipated. The old figure, the First Elder of the Thunder God Palace, was still standing in the highest void with a calm expression, as for Emperor Rain King, who was beside him, he was extremely anxious.

“First Elder, that brat has escaped. Aren’t you going to chase after him?” Emperor Rain King asked in a low voice.

“Do you think that this old man doesn’t want to kill him?” The First Elder of the Thunder God Palace coldly glanced at Emperor Rain King.

Emperor Rain King was startled. When he sensed the cold eyes of the First Elder of the Thunder God Palace, his heart could not help but shudder.

Only then did he remember that although he was also one of the highest-ranking members of the Thunder God Palace and held an important position in the palace, compared to the First Elder in front of him, the difference was still like heaven and earth.

The First Elder of the Thunder God Palace, the Ultimate Ruler, was one of the most powerful forces of the Thunder God Palace.

After all, the Ultimate Ruler was the most powerful force in the entire Nine Luminaries Great Star area. There were only about twenty of them in the entire Nine Luminaries Great Star area, while the Thunder God Palace only had three.

Any one of these three ultimate Dominators was the true pillar of the Thunder God Palace, and they could not fall.

But like Emperor Rain, although he was the temple Ruler of the principle enforcement temple and the number one principle enforcement elder, if he died, the Thunder God Palace could easily find someone to replace him.

But the First Elder could not be replaced.

And how could he teach the First Elder how to do things?

“Grand Elder, could it be that even you can’t kill him?” Emperor Rain Ruler became extremely obedient this time and even addressed him as ‘you’ in a humble tone.

“Hmph, although I don’t know where this kid came from, his strength is indeed very strong. Although he is only a third-level Ruler, his divine power isn’t any weaker than a fifth-level Ruler. Most importantly, he has comprehended the principles of the universe, and his comprehension of the principles of the universe has reached an extremely high level, far exceeding our imaginations. Just by relying on his comprehension of the principles of the universe, he can already be considered invincible among fifth-level Rulers. Even compared to an Ultimate Ruler, he isn’t much weaker.”

“Didn’t you see that my palm was cut in half by his sword?

“Although I didn’t use my full strength, I’m sure that I can’t kill him even if I use my full strength. If I want to kill him, I need two or even three Ultimate Rulers to do it at the same time,” the First Elder said in a deep voice.

“That kid is so powerful?” Emperor Rain was shocked.

He did not expect that the First Elder would have such a high opinion of Jian Wushuang.

Moreover, Jian Wushuang was able to cut the First Elder’s giant crystal hand in half with a single strike. His strength was really impressive.

“Let’s go back first. When we get back, you can tell me what happened. I want to know why this person set you up,” the First Elder said.

“Yes.” Emperor Rain nodded respectfully.

Soon, the First Elder and Emperor Rain returned to the Thunder God Palace.

In the vast void, a universe boat stopped quietly. Jian Wushuang and Leng Rushuang sat together in the universe boat, while Devil Flame stood beside them.

“It failed.”

“I didn’t expect that Emperor Rain would be trapped in a well-designed trap. We were able to completely suppress him, but in the end, he still escaped.”

Jian Wushuang clenched his hands, a trace of unwillingness in his eyes.
