454: Chapter 464 Information about the Crystal Coffin
Returning to the skies above the Sword Domain, the battlefield had now completely devolved into a one-sided massacre.
Without the command of the Demon Commander, those Saint Realm demon generals were utterly insignificant before Patriarch Mu Chuan and Su Jin.
As for Su Xuan, who had already attained the Dao and become an Emperor, these low-tier demons had lost any value for devouring. The energy they contained was negligible, and they weren't even qualified to be absorbed by the prison-suppressing ming king armor.
He put away his long spear and stood quietly in the Void Realm.
"In-law!"
A streak of lightning flashed by. Covered in blood yet radiating high spirits, Patriarch Mu Chuan blinked over to Su Feng's side and offered a cupped-fist salute.
"Old Brother Mu, you've worked hard."
Su Feng smiled and cupped his fists in response.
After exchanging pleasantries, the excitement on Patriarch Mu Chuan's face gradually faded. Looking at the Blood-colored Passages still standing in the distance, his tone was laced with deep solemnity.
"In-law, I heard that this time the Realm Demons are launching an all-out, indiscriminate attack on the Great Thousand Star Domain at all costs. What is the overall situation now...?"
Patriarch Mu Chuan remained pessimistic about this mismatched war.
The Sword Domain was able to hold its ground because the traitor had been rooted out and members of the Su Family were present here. But what about the other Star Domains?
"The situation is tragic."
Su Feng did not hide anything. "However, I have already had the Emperor of the Brilliant Star Domain step in to join the fight. As long as we hold steady, the defense line won't collapse immediately."
Su Feng stopped discussing the war situation and turned to look at Mu Linglong and Bai Qiuqiu, who had been standing in the rear.
"Linglong, Qiuqiu." Su Feng's voice was gentle yet unquestionable.
"The front lines are perilous and change in a split second. It would be best for you both to return to the Wanxiang Star Domain with me."
"From now on, Su Xuan and Su Jin will act as the main force, bound to slaughter across various Realm Battlefields. Only when you are completely safe can they fight without any worries."
Hearing Su Feng's words, Mu Linglong tightened her grip around the child slightly.
She looked back at the devastated battlefield. Though she felt a pang of reluctance, she knew full well that her father-in-law made sense.
"Everything will be as Dad arranges." Mu Linglong lowered her head and replied.
"Me too..." Bai Qiuqiu immediately chimed in obediently, not forgetting to steal a glance at Su Xuan in the distance.
To be honest, as daughters-in-law, both of them held a deep, heartfelt reverence for Su Feng.
Even someone like Su Xuan—a slaughter god who viewed all living beings as mere grass—or Su Jin—a sword god with innate arrogance—would become as docile as kittens the moment they saw Su Feng.
Within the Su Family, Su Feng was the sole heaven.
"Old Brother Mu, time is of the essence; I'll take them away first. With you and Su Jin holding down the fort here in the Sword Domain, it'll be more than enough."
"Take care, In-law! Important matters come first!" Hearing this, Patriarch Mu Chuan immediately stepped aside.
Su Feng waved at Su Xuan and the others. A wave of Space Law swept past, and Mu Linglong and Bai Qiuqiu were smoothly pulled into his internal world.
...
A moment later.
Wanxiang Star Domain, Su Family Heavenly Palace Command Post.
Su Feng brought Su Xuan back to the legion's grand hall commanded by Wu Qin.
Here, Su Feng had specially recalled the Void Emperor, who was proficient in Space Law, from the Brilliant Star Domain.
"Fellow Daoist Void." Su Feng pointed to Su Xuan beside him.
"In the days ahead, could I trouble you to act as a guide and take him around to a few more Realm Battlefields where the fighting is intense?"
Su Feng knew very well that if Su Xuan's prison-suppressing ming king armor was to continue evolving, he needed to slaughter as many Demon Commanders as possible.
But the Great Thousand Star Domain was simply too vast. If Su Xuan traveled at his newly Breakthrough speed, it would take forever.
With the Void Emperor—a titan capable of instantly crossing rivers of stars—acting as a driver, it was equivalent to equipping this killing machine with the most efficient space-jumping device!
"You're too polite, Head of the Su Family." The Void Emperor looked at Su Xuan, whose aura was restrained yet deeply chilling, and nodded solemnly.
"Leave it to him; I guarantee he'll have a killing spree to his heart's content!"
"Then I'll take him away first!"
With a wave of the Void Emperor's hand, he directly tore through space, taking Su Xuan with him as they departed.
Across the battlefields of the Great Thousand Star Domain, a "ghost assassin" duo that struck terror into the hearts of the Realm Demons was officially born.
After arranging for Su Xuan—their trump card for grinding monsters and leveling up—Su Feng turned his gaze to Wu Qin, who was rapidly making deductions in front of the star map.
"What is the overall battle situation like now?"
Wu Qin raised her head from the complex intelligence reports, rubbed her brow, and spoke in a slightly heavy tone.
"In a mere half-day, at least ten medium-sized Star Domains have fallen, with countless casualties. The troop-spawning speed of the Demon Mother Nest has exceeded expectations."
At this, a flash of cold severity crossed Wu Qin's eyes.
"However, once we integrate our scattered forces, we will gradually fight our way back bit by bit!"
Su Feng sighed, deeply understanding the tragedy of it all.
War was never just idle talk on paper; casualties were inevitable.
History always repeated itself with startling similarity: worlds started from humble beginnings, flourished, declined amidst the flames of war, and finally welcomed rebirth through destruction.
This was not something he, Su Feng, could save simply by acting out of benevolence.
"Defensive counterattacks are your domain; I won't interfere."
Su Feng changed the subject, his gaze suddenly turning resolute, as if he had returned to the state he was in when he first awakened the System back then.
"But there is one matter that must be put on the agenda right now, without a single moment of delay!"
Wu Qin was stunned for a moment. "Husband, what could be so urgent?"
"It concerns our future life and death!!"
Su Feng planted both hands on the star map, speaking with resounding force. "I will tell the children!"
"Have them immediately form a Su Family matchmaking rescue fleet! Go to those Holy Lands and Sects on the brink of destruction, no matter what it takes! I only care about one thing—exhaust every possible means to find Dao Companions!"
But at this point, Su Feng no longer cared whether a forcibly plucked melon was sweet or not.
In an era of war where life was uncertain from day to day, there was simply no time for romantic sentimentality!
"The Demon Mother Nest can rely on drawing upon the Star Domain Origin to ripen demonic eggs and nurture combat power. Are we on the Star Domain side supposed to just sit here and await our doom?"
Su Feng's eyes flashed. "Since they can mass-produce soldiers, we can do the same! As long as our population base is large enough, offspring with Advanced Spiritual Roots will be born endlessly. This is our true trump card to outlast the abyss!"
"Aside from the front lines, there are also the Wanxiang Star Domain and Life Star Domain!"
"My internal world now boasts the massive populations of those two Star Domains. Pass down the order: open up the highest-level Cultivation resources as fertility subsidies, and encourage the Prodigies within both Star Domains to intermarry with my Su Family descendants!"
Hearing Su Feng's seemingly absurd strategic layout, Wu Qin took a deep breath and nodded solemnly. "I understand, Husband."
After properly arranging the grand plan for Family reproduction, Su Feng did not linger here much longer.
With a flash of his figure, he vanished into thin air from within the grand hall, entering the deepest depths of his internal world all by himself.
This was an independent space sealed off by Su Feng.
There were no flowers, trees, sun, moon, or stars—only endless Chaos and tranquility.
In the center of this Chaos, a [Crystal Coffin] exuding a desolate aura was quietly suspended there.
Su Feng walked up to the Crystal Coffin. Looking through the transparent lid at the breathtakingly beautiful figure inside, he fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, a thought stirred in Su Feng's mind, and he raised his hand in a beckoning gesture.
Hum—!
A brilliant golden sword light pierced through the air, transforming into the illusory figure of an old man—none other than the Sword Soul of the Heavenly Emperor Sword.
As an artifact spirit who had once accompanied the ancient Heavenly Emperor to conquer the heavens and knew the most core secrets, the Sword Soul usually always put on the airs of an expert who looked down on all living beings and saw through the Mortal World.
"Su Feng..."
The Sword Soul stroked his beard and spoke.
However, before he could finish speaking, his gaze inadvertently swept across the [Crystal Coffin] quietly suspended ahead.
Boom—!
With just a single glance, the Sword Soul's illusory spiritual body trembled without warning!
"This... This aura..."
Watching the Sword Soul's reaction, Su Feng's eyes flashed with a sharp glint as he asked calmly:
"Judging by your reaction, have you seen her before?"
"Tell me, who on earth is lying inside?"
The Sword Soul's expression turned unsightly.
"How could she be here... How could she possibly be here?!"
"She was clearly already dead!!"
