Chapter 383: The Master of Absolute Dust Valley

Su Che really didn’t expect that the head of the mighty Absolute Dust Valley would also be a possessed one, possibly even the most powerful among them. Not only Su Che was surprised, but Bai Lao Mo in the Immortal Prison was equally astonished.
“Surprised, aren’t you?” the Master of Absolute Dust Valley laughed. “If you don’t intend to fight me right now, I’m not opposed to having a chat with you.”
“I’m not opposed either. Let’s talk,” Su Che nodded calmly. Since he was already involved, he might as well stay and figure out the situation before taking action.
“You’re not from the cultivation world of Mu Lan Star, are you?” the Master of Absolute Dust Valley asked first.
“No,” Su Che admitted frankly. “I come from another realm’s cultivation world.”
“No wonder. I can sense that there’s something about you that’s different from those people,” the Master said slowly.
After answering his question, it was Su Che’s turn to ask, “Was it you who caused the disaster on Mu Lan Star?”
The Master nodded. “I’ve been asleep for hundreds of millions of years and am extremely hungry. I need all the living beings on this planet as food to restore my original strength. Being the master of Absolute Dust Valley is perfect for gathering the strongest people on Mu Lan Star so that I can gradually devour them.”
Hearing this, Su Che understood. After waking up, this guy had planned to consume all the living beings on the planet to regain his strength. Thus, he chose the master of Absolute Dust Valley as his first target. He first seized the master’s soul, took over his body, then released impure primal demonic energy to trigger a demonic plague across the planet. Using Absolute Dust Valley’s prestigious status, he gathered the strongest Yuan Ying cultivators from the cultivation world, claiming to work together to fight the plague, but actually to give himself the chance to turn them one by one into his demonic seeds.
After figuring this out, Su Che asked again, “If you can silently eliminate a peak-level figure like the master of Absolute Dust Valley, does that mean your true strength has surpassed the cultivation world’s power levels? Then why hasn’t the law of the universe detected you in the Spirit Realm?”
“At this stage, my power is spread across millions of demonic seeds. As long as I haven’t reclaimed all my power, the laws of the universe won’t be able to see me,” the Master of Absolute Dust Valley replied with a faint smile.
Just as Su Che was about to ask another question, he waved his hand and said, “It’s my turn to ask.”

“Good,” Su Che smiled. “Question and answer—it’s indeed your turn now.”
“The last question,” said the Master of Juechen Valley, raising his index finger and speaking in a low voice. “Do you possess a spatial magic artifact that can completely sever the connection between me and the mana seed?”
“I don’t have such an advanced treasure,” Su Che replied calmly, shaking his head. Since it involved the Immortal Prison, he had to lie. “I do have a divine ability that can create a small domain to completely cut off…”
Before he could finish, the Master of Juechen Valley waved his hand. “You’re lying. But it doesn’t matter. I already know the real answer.”
He said with a smile, “Originally, my target was all living beings on Mulan Star. But since I’ve had the fortune to meet you, my goal has changed. I need that magic artifact of yours. Whether you like it or not, it must belong to me.”
Only then did Su Che fully understand. Earlier, the three from Chenyuan had deliberately escalated the situation and staged a scene where over forty possessed beings attacked the core forbidden area. Their real purpose was to create a legitimate excuse to deceive him, so that he would willingly come to this secret room and be alone with them.
His ultimate goal was actually his own Immortal Prison!
Before Su Che could react, the Master of Juechen Valley smirked darkly. “Besides, since you lied to me just now, you no longer have the right to ask more questions.”
Before his words faded, a strange fluctuation suddenly swept through the entire secret room.
Su Che felt a blur before his eyes, and the surroundings completely changed. It was no longer an underground chamber in Juechen Valley but the vast expanse of space, directly in the starry sky.
A hallucination?
The illusion array created by that demon?
No! In the starry sky before him floated a huge planet—none other than Mulan Star. Moreover, whether through his own divine sense or Lao Hei’s detection ability, Su Che could clearly determine that this was the real starry sky, not inside an illusion array.
“What method did that guy use to teleport me thousands of miles away into the starry sky?” Su Che was naturally shocked, because he hadn’t found anything related to a teleportation array in that secret room earlier.
“It’s certain that this isn’t the power of a teleportation array. It’s a teleportation divine ability he possesses.”
“Is it the Great Teleportation Art, one of the Three Thousand Great Paths? Could he be from the Immortal Realm? Or an ancient demon god who has slept for billions of years?”
Su Che was deeply alarmed. If that were the case, his situation would indeed be in grave danger.
Swish!

In the next instant, the figure of the Master of Juechen Valley appeared hundreds of feet away on the opposite side. Not only him, but also the forty-one Magic Seed cultivators at the Yuan Ying stage who had fled from Juechen Valley were there as well—transported there by some means unknown to him. In other words, Su Che was now surrounded by forty-two Yuan Ying cultivators in this starry expanse, trapped in a tight encirclement.

“I need your top-tier spatial magic artifact to evade the laws of this cultivation world. I don’t want to return to the Immortal Realm so soon,” the Master of Juechen Valley said in a deep voice. “Your artifact creates its own realm, so it should be able to bypass the laws of this world, right?”

“No!” Given the matter involved the Immortal Prison, Su Che would never admit it under any circumstances.

The Master of Juechen Valley laughed heartily. “I don’t need you to admit it. I just want to show you two choices. One: I’ll force you to transform into a Magic Seed, ending up like those puppets. Naturally, everything yours will belong to me. Two: You voluntarily hand over that artifact, and I’ll take you as a trusted subordinate, preserving all your thoughts and consciousness. Moreover, I guarantee you’ll be able to ascend to immortality someday. And when that day comes, we’ll enter the Immortal Realm together. I can even return your spatial magic artifact to you—just temporarily borrowed.”

Su Che remained silent, unable to listen to his nonsense. No matter how beautifully he spoke, he couldn’t expect Su Che to hand over even a single spirit stone. However, the words he had casually spoken earlier also filled Su Che with concern. His statement that he “didn’t want to return to the Immortal Realm so soon” confirmed his earlier suspicion—that this guy indeed came from the Immortal Realm and, for some reason, had fallen into slumber deep within the core of Mulu Lan Planet for countless years.

At present, the most crucial thing was to determine how strong his remaining power was—what level was he at? The Hua Shen stage? The Lian Xu stage? Or some even more terrifying cultivation realm? If it was the Hua Shen stage, there might still be a chance to fight back. But if it was above the Lian Xu stage…

“It’s a shame. I have a good impression of you. It seems you’ve reached the Yuan Ying stage at such a young age, with great fortune—extremely rare. That’s why I made an exception and took you as a trusted subordinate.”

The Master of Juechen Valley shook his head slowly. “You kid really don’t know how to be grateful. You insist on choosing a dead end.”

“Grateful?” Su Che laughed. “Ask me to be grateful to a bandit? Am I that despicable?”

There was no need for further talk. Given the current situation, words alone couldn’t lead to a satisfactory outcome. It was time to prove things with action.

Huh!

Su Che immediately summoned the Giant Wealth, creating a golden defensive barrier that covered an area of ten zhang, forming a large, gleaming golden sphere in mid-air.
Ten zhang! It was clear that Su Che wasn’t planning to fight alone—since his opponent had over forty people, he surely needed to bring in his own subordinates as well.
One reason Su Che still felt confident was that he bet the other party wouldn’t dare use attacks that truly surpassed the peak powers of the cultivation realm. Such forces that disrupted balance would be punished by the laws of heaven and earth; being sent to the Spirit Realm or Immortal Realm would be the least of it—there might even be direct divine punishment.
“A top-tier Dao artifact?”
The Master of the Dustless Valley’s expression changed slightly. “Just a pure defensive magic weapon. No wonder you’re so confident. Do you think my magic seeds can’t break through your shell?”
“Can we stop the nonsense?” Su Che said calmly. “If I don’t act now, I’ll fly away. Thanks for sending me into the starry sky—I was planning to leave anyway.”
As he spoke, Su Che summoned the Star Emperor Compass, which expanded to the size of ten zhang, resembling a circular platform. Then, his four top generals—Yan Gu, Yan Lin, Tai Wu, and Chen Xu—appeared simultaneously, standing on the compass, each wielding an elite spiritual treasure ready to launch an attack at any moment.
Let’s fight!
Unwilling to waste more time talking, Su Che immediately issued the battle order.
Whoosh!
Driven by Yan Gu, who was in the later stages of the Yuan Ying stage, the Star Emperor Compass shot out at extreme speed toward the nearest possessed person.
That possessed person’s flying magic weapon was relatively low-grade, so its speed couldn’t be fast. Facing the combined attacks of Su Che’s men, it would be impossible for them to dodge. So, they would start with him.
Soul Seize!
A blue beam shot out, followed immediately by the joint attacks of Yan Gu and his three companions.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
Four elite spiritual treasures unleashed their power at the same time, delivering four powerful divine attacks.
Rather than injuring all ten fingers, it was better to break just one—concentrating efforts on attacking one person while relying entirely on the Giant Wealth for defense.
The possessed person first suffered the impact of Soul Seize. His attempt to dodge sideways halted instantly, turning him into a passive target who could only take hits and not retaliate.
Boom! Boom! Boom…
The four divine attacks unleashed by the elite spiritual treasures instantly shattered his defenses. His protective magic weapon, a bone-armor-shaped defensive artifact, was blasted away from his body. But before it could fly far, Su Che used his Great Plundering Technique to forcibly pull the artifact back into the Giant Wealth’s barrier.

After seizing the treasures, this person’s defensive strength dropped by several levels abruptly. Faced with the combined attacks of the four Flame Bone warriors, he had no chance to resist at all.
Bang! Bang! Bang…
A series of blows shattered his bones and ruptured his internal organs. Before he could even fall into a coma from severe injuries, Su Che used his Great Plundering Art once again to absorb him entirely.
Swish!
He disappeared, taken back into the Immortal Prison.
After ascending to the Yuan Ying stage, Su Che’s Great Plundering Art could not only seize treasures but also, to a certain extent, “take” the owner of the treasures as well.
“The Great Plundering Art?”
The Valley Master of Juechen’s expression changed drastically. Coming from the Immortal Realm, he was certainly an expert in recognizing such powers and could easily tell that the technique Su Che had just used was one of the most renowned supreme arts in the Immortal Realm, ranking among the top ten of the Three Thousand Great Paths.
“How could he know such a great path art? Could it be that he is the reincarnation of an immortal?”
At that moment, the Valley Master of Juechen couldn’t help but imagine such possibilities, completely ignoring the magic seed he had just lost.
