Unexpectedly, Zhong Stone actually said that he and the Bloodslaughter Saint King had slain those two Acquired Divine Race members at the Medium Divine Domain Realm, which truly shocked him.
“That’s right, did you understand what I just said?” Zhong Stone said with a slight nod, repeating his question.
“Huh?” Grey Leaf was first taken aback, then a flash of insight crossed his mind.
“I understand! I understand!” Grey Leaf nodded repeatedly, speaking quickly. During the conversation, he even nervously glanced in the direction of the Bloodslaughter Universe, even though Zhong Stone had already released a shielding power around them, but he couldn’t help feeling nervous.
Never had he imagined that the power of the Bloodslaughter Saint King was so formidable. He knew full well that the Bloodslaughter Saint King and Zhong Stone teaming up were able to annihilate those two Acquired Divine Race members at the Medium Divine Domain Realm. Their strength was definitely not inferior to someone of the Medium Divine Domain Realm.
Now, with Zhong Stone’s realm having fallen to the Lower Divine Domain Realm, it was more than likely that he was no match for the Bloodslaughter Saint King. If the latter heard what he had just said, who knew if he would come and kill him in a rage?
From what Zhong Stone said… he also picked up on a hidden meaning. Could it be that during the prior battle, Zhong Stone, having witnessed the fierce Blood Sword of the Bloodslaughter Saint King, also coveted it? But with his current strength not on par with the opponent, he had temporarily put aside such thoughts. However, could he be worried that if word got out, other Divine Domain Realm beings would take notice of the Bloodslaughter Saint King and take the Blood Sword before he could, which is why he spoke as he did?
Observing Zhong Stone’s expression and the faint aura he was emitting, Grey Leaf felt increasingly convinced this was the case.
So, as he nodded, he also anxiously glanced toward the Bloodslaughter Universe, for fear that the Bloodslaughter Saint King had sensed Zhong Stone’s intentions as well.
“Good, let’s leave now. When I take you back to the Stone God Clan, we’ll see if there’s a way to restore your strength!” Seeing that Grey Leaf had not misunderstood his hint, Zhong Stone nodded slightly and said with a light chuckle.
Whoosh!
As his words fell, he released a force of Divine Domain Power to envelop Grey Leaf, and together they flew in a particular direction.
As for the spatial array set up by the two Acquired Divine Race members in this space, he didn’t bother with it, letting it be. Should other Divine Realm powerhouses come, it might serve as a barrier to hold them off.
…
Netherworld.
Lin Yun’s true body was floating in a space, with his eyes closed, carefully sensing the various pieces of information that the Netherworld was conveying to him.
“So it turns out that spirits of the Spirit World’s Divine Realm cannot enter the Netherworld no wonder I have never heard of any Divine Realm Cultivators from the Spirit World entering the Netherworld. If the original Netherworld was deemed too inferior to pique the interest of the Divine Realm beings, now the Netherworld cannot be ignored. After so much time, it’s impossible that no Divine Realm beings have entered…” After a moment, Lin Yun mused.
“Luckily, I had previously broken through the nine New Layered Heavens of the Netherworld in succession. These nine New Layered Heavens are still a small whole, thus, I received a relatively complete force of laws from between the Netherworld realms, which allowed me to enter the Netherworld. Otherwise, my true body might not have been able to enter the Netherworld…” After pausing, Lin Yun felt sentimental, with a trace of relief in his words.
Indeed, it was a relief. It had been very close, and his true body might not have been able to enter the Netherworld again. His avatars probably could, but fundamentally, they also belonged to the spirits of the Spirit World. And once they broke through to the Divine Realm?
By then, neither his true body nor his avatars would be able to enter the Netherworld, which meant his plan to use the Netherworld as his final stronghold would have utterly fallen apart, not to mention he had a series of plans, all of which required the Netherworld to be executed.
Fortunately, he did not just break through seven or eight Layered Heavens before ascending to the Divine Realm, nor were the first two Layered Heavens coincidentally broken through by some other Ghost Practitioner, causing him to skip a Layered Heaven or two.
Instead, he had precisely broken through from the thirty-seventh to the forty-fifth Layered Heaven of the Netherworld, a small whole composed of all those Layered Heavens.
“Now that being the case, can I continue to break through new Layered Heavens of the Netherworld?” Lin Yun looked up, his gaze piercing through the layers of space, to the highest Layered Heavens of the Netherworld, murmuring softly.
Whoosh!
As he spoke, he took a step forward and set off toward the higher Layered Heavens of the Netherworld.
Each space he passed, channels opened up automatically before him.
In just a moment, Lin Yun reached the forty-fifth Layered Heaven of the Netherworld.
“Lily pays respects to the Blood Emperor!”
“We all pay respects to the Blood Emperor!”
The Lily Emperor and her entourage sensed a Cultivator entering the forty-fifth Layered Heaven and all promptly opened their eyes. Seeing Lin Yun, they teleported over and respectfully greeted him.
“No need for such formalities.”
Lin Yun nodded slightly to them.
At the same time, his Divine Domain Power covered the entire forty-fifth Layered Heaven, sensing the places around him where those people were practicing their cultivation without any obstruction from arrays or arrangements.
Although he had only been in the great world of spirits for two or three days, nearly a thousand years had passed here.
At this time, Xia Qingqing, Lin Mengmeng, and others had made great progress, all having entered the realm of Sanctuary, and even those with exceptional talent like Lin Mengmeng and Xia Qingqing had reached a formidable level within the Saint Lord Realm.
The rapid pace of their cultivation couldn’t help but make Lin Yun feel emotional, the Yin attribute energy of the Netherworld truly benefited the spirits of the Spirit World tremendously.
Following that, Lin Yun did not concern himself with them any longer.
“Tri-Eyed Emperor pays respect to Blood Emperor!”
Just then, as the barrier between the forty-fourth and forty-fifth Layered Heavens was opened to create a spatial passage, a streak of light flashed over, revealing a young man of extraordinary bearing, who clasped his hands in greeting and said respectfully.
It was the Tri-Eyed Emperor who had been searching for Guan Xiangsi in the Reincarnation Land and who had just been summoned back by Lin Yun.
The Tri-Eyed Emperor’s speed in searching the Reincarnation Land was too slow. Over such a long period, he hadn’t covered even a fraction of the area Lin Yun had during his own search. Naturally, he had not found Guan Xiangsi; otherwise, he would have returned long ago.
However, having not found her for such a long time, there was no rush for the moment.
Especially since the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s search pace was not fast.
When his own strength was greater, he would be able to search much more quickly. As the saying goes, sharpening the axe will not delay the work of cutting firewood; that was exactly the case.
“I will try to break into a new Layered Heaven momentarily. You can absorb as much energy as you are able to!” Lin Yun looked towards the multitude of Ghost Practitioners and spoke.
“What?”
Upon hearing Lin Yun’s words, the Ghost Practitioners were greatly surprised.
How long had it been since Blood Emperor had broken through the new Layered Heaven? So quickly, the Blood Emperor was going to break through another new Layered Heaven?
“Indeed worthy of being Blood Emperor!”
A Ghost Practitioner pondered inwardly.
In his previous life, Blood Emperor had effortlessly broken through new Layered Heavens of the Netherworld, and after his rebirth, it became even easier, as simple as eating and drinking; truly unmatched in history, likely with no one to follow.
“Congratulations to Blood Emperor for the significant increase in strength!”
One of the shrewder Ghost Practitioners once again saluted Lin Yun.
Clearly, Blood Emperor’s strength had once again improved significantly, otherwise, he wouldn’t be preparing to break through a new Layered Heaven of the Netherworld yet again.
“Congratulations to Blood Emperor for the significant increase in strength!”
The other Ghost Practitioners also reacted, consecutively saluting Lin Yun once more.
At the same time, they were all extremely excited. Blood Emperor was about to break through another new Layered Heaven, and he was allowing them to absorb as much energy as they could. This meant another opportunity was coming their way.
Their strength would be able to make another great leap.
Moreover, as followers of Blood Emperor, the stronger Blood Emperor was, the brighter their futures naturally would be.
Perhaps one day under the leadership of Blood Emperor, the Netherworld might truly compare to the grand Spirit World, and they all could become the top powerhouses of Netherworld, equivalent to the top powerhouses of the grand Spirit World, just as… in the legends of the Spirit World’s Divine Realm!
“Blood Emperor’s realm… could it be…”
Among the group of Ghost Practitioners, the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s body shook, his eyes looking towards Lin Yun filled with shock.
Not long ago, Lin Yun had stayed in the forty-fifth Layered Heaven of the Netherworld for a thousand years, and because he needed Tri-Eyed Emperor to continuously use his Divine Eye abilities, he had indirectly sparred with Lin Yun many times.
As a result, he was quite aware of Lin Yun’s level of strength.
At that time, Lin Yun’s realm had reached a formidable tier within the Peak Saint King Realm.
Further improving his strength was not a simple matter.
At this moment, he couldn’t help but suspect whether Blood Emperor’s realm had reached another level.
