"Stop, I concede, don't continue," pleaded the Heart Demon Martial God, quickly speaking up. At this point, he knew he had been defeated. He did not wish to die, especially in such an obscure manner. He couldn't recall having provoked such a powerful Martial God, one whose laws could suppress his Law of Illusion. This was unprecedented in his experience.
Despite encountering numerous Martial Gods, some with stronger or more numerous laws, he had never seen a law that could suppress another's. But now, his Law of Illusion was utterly suppressed, even countered.
Realizing the futility of resistance in the face of complete suppression, the Heart Demon Martial God, wise from his thousands of years, chose to cooperate. He preferred life to prideful defiance.
Lin Fei nodded and stated, "I need Saber Worlds. Those transformed into mysteries will do as well. I want all the mysteries that were once Saber Worlds."
"You only want these Saber Worlds?" the Heart Demon Martial God asked, almost in disbelief. To Martial Gods, these mysteries were not particularly precious, merely spoils they had casually seized.
"Unless you have some World Origin? I wouldn't mind taking that as well," Lin Fei added.
"World Origin? No, definitely not. If I had any, I would have used it by now," the Heart Demon Martial God shook their head. Every Martial God required World Origin, so it was always quickly utilized.
"Then it's the Saber World," Lin Fei confirmed, his request quite modest. Even if he took all the available mysteries, it wouldn't be a significant loss to the Heart Demon Martial God.
After a moment of thought, the Heart Demon Martial God nodded in agreement. "No problem. However, I'm not entirely sure which mysteries originated from Saber Worlds. I can only take you to all the mysteries I know, and you can take any that were transformed from Saber Worlds."
"No problem," Lin Fei nodded in agreement.
As long as there was Saber World, everything else was trivial for Lin Fei.
Knowing Lin Fei's objective, the Heart Demon Martial God had no further resistance and cooperated willingly. He began to guide Lin Fei through the inspection of various mysteries. One after another, they examined numerous sites – the Heart Demon Martial God had amassed an astonishing number of them over tens of thousands of years, so many that even he couldn't remember which were transformed from Saber Worlds.
It was only at the fifth mystery that Lin Fei finally discovered a Saber World mystery, which excited him greatly. If there was one among the first five, how many more could there be in the remaining mysteries? Eager to find out, they continued their search.
Each mystery was unique. After exploring forty-eight in total, Lin Fei was immensely impressed by the Heart Demon Martial God's collection. To his exhilaration, he found that five of these mysteries were transformed Saber Worlds, far exceeding his initial expectation of two or three.
Grateful for this unexpected bounty, Lin Fei's view of the Heart Demon Martial God improved significantly.

"Heart Demon Martial God, for these five Saber World, I owe you a favor," Lin Fei declared jovially. "Should you need anything in the future, feel free to seek my assistance."
Lin Fei was not concerned about revealing his identity. Being from the Ancient Covenant, he knew the Heart Demon Martial God posed no threat to him. Moreover, his ability to counter the Heart Demon Martial God put him in a favorable position.
"Ancient Covenant, Lin Fei?" the Heart Demon Martial God mused, surprised by Lin Fei's distant origin. Though they felt somewhat humiliated by being suppressed and forced to relinquish five Saber Worlds, he recognized Lin Fei's extraordinary laws and potential for future cooperation.
The Heart Demon Martial God responded with a smile, "Martial God Lin, perhaps in the future, I may indeed have matters requiring your assistance."
"If I can help, I certainly will not refuse," Lin Fei replied, ready to part ways. "Esteemed Mi Tian, I take my leave."
Subsequently, Lin Fei did not linger any further. He merely bowed to the Heart Demon Martial God and transformed into a streak of light, vanishing into the vast expanse of the heavens.
The Heart Demon Martial God gazed at the fading silhouette of Lin Fei, his eyes assuming an incomparably profound depth. "Ancient Covenant, Lin Fei," he murmured. "This individual possesses formidable strength, surpassing mere mastery of my laws. Moreover, the aura of tribulation lingering about him is not dense, suggesting he has likely undergone a few tribulations. In the future struggle for the origin of the world, perhaps he shall prove indispensable..."
The Heart Demon Martial God also intended to dispatch someone to investigate Lin Fei. These pieces of information were easily ascertainable. Though he had lost face this time, who's to say it wasn't a blessing in disguise? Mere five hidden realms, after all. If it meant befriending a top-tier Martial God, sacrificing five hidden realms would be more than worthwhile!
Lin Fei was unaware of the Heart Demon Martial God's thoughts, nor did he concern himself with them. After departing from the Ten Directions Realm, he swiftly made his way back to the Ancient City without any delays. His heart was set on returning! After all, this journey had yielded bountiful gains. Five entire Saber Worlds! Such a notion was unimaginable in the past.
Previously, Lin Fei had only acquired two Saber Worlds in total. Yet now, he had suddenly obtained five. Once he devoured all five Saber Worlds and merged them into his own Saber World, Lin Fei would even have the confidence to overcome the third tribulation without exerting himself to acquire the origin of the world any longer.
Lin Fei returned to his own secret chamber.
"Let it begin," he murmured.
With that, Lin Fei unleashed his own Saber World, enveloping one of the Saber Worlds directly.
"Crack."
Instantly, the targeted Saber World began to crumble, fissures appearing and rapidly spreading. As the Saber World collapsed, Lin Fei's own Saber World, on the other hand, expanded rapidly.
Time passed bit by bit.
One day, two days, three days...
And Lin Fei devoured one, two, three Saber Worlds... until all five Saber Worlds were consumed!
"Boom."
Several days later, Lin Fei devoured the last Saber World. Simultaneously, his own Saber World had undergone a drastic transformation, even completing a metamorphosis. When Lin Fei's Saber World devoured the third Saber World, the transformation began, continuing until the fifth. In fact, including the two previously devoured, Lin Fei had effectively devoured seven Saber Worlds!
Thus, at this moment, the strength of Lin Fei's Saber World was formidable, especially when merged with the laws of the world, it was beyond imagination, overwhelmingly robust. If he were to encounter Martial Gods like Du Yuan again, Lin Fei might not even need to employ the Particle World. With just a thought, his Saber World could come crashing down, directly suppressing his adversaries!
It was evident just how formidable Lin Fei's Saber World had become.
"So, if I were to face the third tribulation now... how many heavenly thunders could I withstand? And how many laws could I plunder?"
A flicker of thought crossed Lin Fei's mind as he raised his head, gazing into the void, whispering softly to himself.
