Consuming Earths, Devouring Skies

"The Sirius Slaughter Robe," Yan Zaizen stood alone in chaotic space with a plain white robe in front of him. It gave off a distinct aura of predator superiority that caused his white blood to surge.

This robe was the second item given to him by the White Sirius Heavenly Monarch, Xiha. However, he didn’t explain much about this robe. The only thing Yan Zaizen discovered was that it didn’t use a True Spirit and functioned via complex formations in a similar way to Sky Shatter.

However, when Yan Zaizen tried to inspect the formations, his soul would often be lost in the maze of complexities. It felt oddly stifling.

"This robe is profound, it’s likely a grade higher than Sky Shatter." Pinaka softly commented from within his soul.

"But what grade is it?" Yan Zaizen frustratingly questioned. He knew that with the inclusion of the True Spirit Path in the recent eras of the 27th Heaven, an armament’s grade was determined by formations, concepts, and True Spirit.

For example, Pinaka was a mid-grade Spirit Armament. This couldn’t change or be enhanced unless Pinaka was fundamentally modified. This was only because her current concepts, formations, and body reached its limit.

Because he lacked proficiency in formations, he couldn’t enhance them. Because Pinaka’s concepts are based around a sovereign-level fused conceptual law, he couldn’t advance that. Not to mention, when True Spirits evolve from their Spirit Forms, their souls can’t be enhanced.

Pinaka had absorbed a large quantity of Yan Zaizen’s soulforce yet could not breakthrough. In truth, the True Spirit Path was heavily flawed.

This was an aspect that Yan Zaizen discovered. The flaw is that, independently, it could not advance.

"Was this why the heavens outlaw it, even the 7th Heaven? Because its flawed?" As he thought this, he looked at Pinaka looking beautifully in his soul form with an intrigued gaze. As if knowing that he was watching her, she looked up and softly smiled.

Thump!

His heart nearly skipped a beat.

It took a while before he calmed himself down and softly cursed. This woman wasn’t flawed by any means.

As for Sky Shatter and Sirius Slaughter Robe, they embodied the path of formations. They both seemed to exist as a segregated entity of the heavens. Sky Shatter embodied the Herculean Law while Sirius Slaughter Robe embodied Sirius Law. These weren’t innate to the heavens.

However, "what concept?" As he thought of these laws like heavenly laws, he recalled Zhou Xiuhei and his Unbreakable Herculean Method. Sky Shatter was likely constructed by another herculean which cultivated a different method.

"You should try it on," Pinaka suggested.

"Mhm," he agreed. After all, if he didn’t take a step to discover the aspects of the robe, what’s the point? With a wave, his current robe was sent into his Meteor Ring. With another wave, the Sirius Slaughter Robe replaced it.

When it did, it was slightly bigger than his body. Although it was described as slightly, it was nearly half a person longer than Yan Zaizen. The sleeves were nearly to his knees and it wrapped around him as snuggly as an oversized blanket on a child.

"...I look ridiculous." While he felt awed that Xiha was a very tall and large man, Pinaka was covering her mouth with her hands. Her eyes smiling.

Yan Zaizen mobilized his spiritual sense and integrated it into the Sirius Slaughter Robe. When he did, his eyes flickered. Information regarding the Sirius Slaughter Robe transmitted into his mind.

"So that’s it?" After it was done, he felt somewhat dissatisfied. With a thought, the white Sirius Slaughter Robe transformed. It became amber-gold. The size also reduced until it fit Yan Zaizen as well as a fitted material arts robe.

Pinaka’s eyes shined, "so? What else can it do?" This was an item by a Heavenly Monarch! One that had reached the peak of the Heavenly Creation Realm and established their own Path.

"It’s defensive-oriented, but it enhances my physical attributes in a similar way to Sky Shatter. However..." As he thought about it more, his brows sunk. "It focuses mostly on speed."

"What’s wrong with it?" Pinaka was curious, Yan Zaizen didn’t say a negative but looked dismayed. As they were deeply linked by the soul, she knew he wasn’t faking his dissatisfaction.

"It’s mostly speed-centric...not strength," he complained.

"..." Pinaka didn’t know whether to laugh, cry, or slap him across his head. He was complaining that it focused mostly on speed rather than strength? Why?

Grumbling, Yan Zaizen truly preferred strength over speed. What’s the point in speed if you can shatter an entire billion li with a single blow, space and all within it. If you can’t outrun the force of the blow, then you can only be destroyed. However, if you have the strength to defend and counterattack, who can be your match?

"Whatever, let’s go." Looking outward in the vast chaotic space, he smiled. No longer did he need to draw upon his laws to sense the outside world. With heavenly sense, an advanced version of qi-sense, he could see essentially the shadow of the Canis Major Realm.

"Haha, let’s go ’receive’ some more materials." With those words, he stepped forward and vanished.

-----

In the Lycan’s Ancestral Burial Grounds, a group of Lycan cultivators was gathered. These cultivators were the top elites of the Lycan Race, Heavenly Commanders! King Moshe was also there, his eyes effused baleful hostility and fiery impatience.

There were fourteen Lycan Race’s Heavenly Commanders, and they were not alone. Two figures stood before them, a man and a woman who were obviously a couple, but they did not belong to the Lycan race. Instead, they had white hair, pure white fangs that left their mouths slightly, and three lines on each side of their cheeks.

They were not divine beasts in human form but hybrids. They had a mixture of heavenly and beastial aura, but their heavenly aura was far more dominant than their bestial aura. Despite this, their heavenly aura seemed beast-like itself, creating a very confusing aura.

Their pupils were golden and looked like a diamond. They belonged to the Banhu Race, descendants of Byakko or Baihu Race. The Banhu Race was exceptionally powerful and could rival the Darnixian Race in many ways.

However, they were in a strange position. Originally, the Banhu Race were not in the 7th Heaven, but a part of the 27th Heaven. They heavily supported the war against the Extreme Rebirth Heavenly God beside the Chaos Origin Heavenly God. Unfortunately, with the defeat and death of the Chaos Origin Heavenly God, they had to depart in fear of eradication.

Therefore, they departed to the 7th Heaven. As for how they knew the Lycan Race, it was through the White Sirius Heavenly Monarch. Xiha was an extraordinary figure in the 27th Heaven, many believing he could fight to become a Heavenly God at any time. Even the Extreme Rebirth Heavenly God paid his respects to Xiha even after death and bestowed his lineage with a Regalia of the Heavens.

Because of Xiha, when they arrived in the 7th Heaven, they stayed as guests in the Canis Major Realm to gather their bearings. After they did, they departed.

Since Yan Zaizen had cultivated in Chaotic Space, only a year had passed in real time. During this year, the Lycans had drawn upon their loose relationship with the Banhu Race and hoped to receive their support.

The two before them was the commanding leaders of their race, both of which were eighth-floor Heavenly Genesis cultivators. As they stood before these Lycan Heavenly Commanders, they had relaxed looks.

Even the Darnixian race had to respect them, allowing them free entry and exit into the barrier despite the possibility of teaming up. This was the level of power these two possessed. However, even the Lycans had suspicions as to why they were so willing, as if they didn’t believe they could gain the Banhu’s support.

"Jing Biao, are we in agreement?" The young man dressed in crimson leather armor asked in confirmation. He was called Admah, a seventh-floor Heavenly Genesis cultivator.

In the entire Canis Major Realm, he was recognized as the second strongest. The only one that surpassed him was the Lycan Grand Ancestor Abrams, the sole eighth-floor Heavenly Genesis cultivator and ruler of the realm. It’s because of him that the Canis Major Realm was classified as an eighth level force.

Jing Biao, the male Banhu, smiled and nodded. Within the depths of his eyes was a well-hidden light of mockery and disdain. While he was hidden, Jing Yu, his wife, was outspoken about her feelings.

"If we say something once, don’t make us say it again! Who do you think you are?" Her tone was aggressive and the Lycan Heavenly Commanders flinched, their expressions starting to shroud over in rage. Even Admah had trouble hiding his rage, but he remained calm, only nodding in response.

Seeing this, Jing Yu coldly harrumphed and said no more. Jing Biao chuckled and insincerely apologized for Jing Yu’s outburst, labeling it as too much excitement at the deal.

The others felt their hearts clench at his words. They truly felt a sharp pinch of deep shame emerge in their hearts when they thought about the deal.

"Of course I’m excited! I’ve always wanted the remains of Heavenly Commanders of the Lycan Race for my personal collection." Jing Yu smilingly said, gripping Jing Bao’s hand in a loving manner.

Those words were like knives, peerlessly sharp and malicious.

Yes!

They were trading their ancestors remains for a way out!

While this was going on, rather nearby, Yan Zaizen looked onwards with disgust in his eyes at those words. He was currently mimicking the aura of normal atmospheric essence. To all those in the area, he was nothing but.

However, his expression was dark and filled with righteous rage. "Pathetic!"
