What they’re seeking is this possibility, or if they find other accomplices, they can also claim rewards from the Acquired Divine Race Empire and the Zodiac Beasts.
In a world of spirits, they really didn’t expect there to be such powerful beings.
After all, their Acquired Divine Race Empire is currently powerful, and a world of spirits is a fixed place—what adversary strong enough to oppose them would dare to set their lair in such a location?
A fixed location, where the slightest clue revealed could result in their many powerful beings surrounding and annihilating the culprit.
This was also why they didn’t make much preparation before entering the Bloodslaughter Universe.
In their minds, as long as there wasn’t a Peak Divine Realm here, they could retreat at ease. If they discovered something amiss, they could just report the information after retreating without delay.
Who would have thought that although they truly did not encounter a Peak Divine Realm being within this Bloodslaughter Universe, there was a terrifyingly powerful being whose strength far surpassed that of a regular Peak Divine Realm, leaving them no chance to flee.
“Are you saying that the Blue Lotus God Monarch killed the Dragon?” Lin Yun asked, his eyes flickering slightly as he listened to the narrative of the intermediate Divine Realm and the occasional supplements from several other Divine Realms.
He didn’t expect the Blue Lotus God Monarch to so readily take responsibility for killing the Dragon; this outcome was much better than if Nantian Stone had taken the blame.
After all, Nantian Stone was just an upper-level Divine Realm, not even among the top in that category. To claim he killed the Dragon, who was extraordinary even among the Peak Divine Realm, who would believe it?
But the Blue Lotus God Monarch was different.
The strength of the Blue Lotus God Monarch was formidable, even among those in the Peak Divine Realm. To kill the Dragon with some strategy was not impossible.
“Could it be I’m overthinking it? The Blue Lotus God Monarch so decisively took responsibility for this matter, there should be no issue, right? Did Nantian Stone tell him any information about my side? Aside from the location, Nantian Stone doesn’t know much! As for the location, Nantian Stone probably didn’t tell the other party, otherwise, they would have come to negotiate! Or perhaps, Nantian Stone did tell them, but they just haven’t come yet?” Lin Yun mused to himself.
However, aside from the Blue Lotus God Monarch, there were still two Peak Divine Realm beings among the remaining Innate Divine Race, one being the Black Night God King and the other a Peak Divine Realm with a hidden identity.
Beyond that, there were many more miscellaneous members of the Innate Divine Race.
As the saying goes, too many cooks spoil the broth. Lin Yun hadn’t gone to the remaining Innate Divine Race base not because he truly suspected the Blue Lotus God Monarch, but for fear that other members of the Innate Divine Race might leak secrets.
In fact, after learning about the true strength of the Acquired Divine Race Empire, his worries about the ambitions of the Blue Lotus God Monarch had diminished greatly. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
The strength of the Acquired Divine Race Empire was too formidable, and the remaining Innate Divine Race was almost gasping for survival. Under such circumstances, would the current leaders of the Innate Divine Race truly harbour ambition?
Are they seriously concerned that his arrival as the Divine Clan prince might lead to a power struggle?
He figured those with real ambition might find it more reliable to defect to the Acquired Divine Race Empire!
Nevertheless, there were still many members concentrated over there, representing various parts of the Innate Divine Race, and as almost a billion years had passed, Lin Yun wasn’t too familiar with the situation there, nor did he need to rush over.
After all, no significant events had broken out between the Innate and Acquired Divine Races yet. He could wait until his strength further improved before heading to the remaining Innate Divine Race’s territory.
“Indeed! It was the Blue Lotus God Monarch who killed the Dragon… Even among the peak Divine Realm beings of our Divine Race Empire, the Dragon was not ordinary. Only a mighty being like the Blue Lotus God Monarch could have killed him. Previously, the Blue Lotus God Monarch had slain two of our empire’s Peak Divine Realms. Thus, possessing the ability to kill the Dragon was not surprising. Such a strong being shouldn’t falsely claim achievements,” the upper-level Divine Realm replied hastily.
Lin Yun frowned slightly and remained silent.
“My Lord, I see that you are also from the Acquired Divine Race. We have not seen your information in the empire. Have you not yet entered our Divine Race Empire? If you wish, I could introduce you…” said the upper-level Divine Realm, seeing that Lin Yun did not speak, and cautiously probed.
If the other party joined their empire, then he would be one of them. Moreover, by acting as the intermediary, his own safety should no longer be a concern.
“I have just killed one of your people, and that isn’t a problem?” Lin Yun glanced at him, responding to the other’s suggestion.
“My Lord jests. Among us cultivators, regardless of where, the supremacy of the strong is an iron law. My Lord may be an upper-level Divine Realm but possesses strength vastly surpassing that of the average Peak Divine Realm, almost equivalent to a Peak Divine Realm status. What’s the big deal about killing an intermediate-level Divine Realm? Moreover, we have offended you, my Lord. That you killed only one of us already shows great mercy. Even if this matter were judged by the laws of our empire, there would be no grounds to blame you,” the upper-level Divine Realm quickly replied with a forced smile.
“Is that so?” Lin Yun responded with an ambiguous smile.
The few cultivators in the Divine Realm felt a chill run down their spines.
After a moment, Lin Yun finally opened his mouth and said in an extremely calm tone, “Rest assured, I have already promised to spare you, so I will not kill you again!”
“Thank you, my lord! Thank you for sparing our lives!”
“Your mercy is boundless, my lord! We are forever grateful!”
These cultivators from the Divine Realm, as if having returned to heaven from hell, hurriedly expressed their gratitude.
“Hum!”
Just then, Lin Yun extended his hand, and a Little Tower appeared in his palm.
The next moment, the base of the Little Tower emitted a terrifying suction force that instantly covered the bodies of these few Divine Realm cultivators.
“My lord, this is…”
“My lord! Spare us!”
The Divine Realm cultivators’ complexions drastically changed. The brave ones were still able to speak calmly with Lin Yun, while the fearful ones already believed Lin Yun had gone back on his word and began begging for mercy once again.
However, Lin Yun did not speak, watching as the Little Tower absorbed the Divine Realm cultivators into its space.
By now, the Heavenly Principle Tower had already broken through to the level of a superior Divine Artifact, and theoretically, it could enslave higher Divine Realm cultivators.
Moreover, with the Netherworld rapidly producing Divine Realm powerhouses, Lin Yun no longer needed to kill these cultivators for their godhood and allowed the Heavenly Principle Tower to subdue them.
Additionally, Lin Yun needed to use them to test something else.
Under Lin Yun’s formidable power, these Divine Realm cultivators had no power to resist, and they were quickly branded with the enslavement mark by the Heavenly Principle Tower.
“It seems that higher Divine Realm cultivators can also be enslaved and branded…” Lin Yun nodded silently to himself.
Previously, the highest strength that the Heavenly Principle Tower had enslaved and branded was the Zhong Stone, who was originally a middle Divine Realm, but later his strength and godhood dropped to the lower Divine Realm.
When Lin Yun first obtained the Heavenly Principle Tower, he hadn’t anticipated that it could break through to the level of a Divine Artifact, and naturally, even though it had reached the level of a superior Divine Artifact, he wasn’t entirely sure whether the Heavenly Principle Tower could enslave higher Divine Realm cultivators.
Now, it seemed that this was not an issue.
However…
Lin Yun carefully sensed the situation, which was the same as before.
Unlike Sanctuary cultivators, with whom the Heavenly Principle Tower could quickly complete enslavement after branding, enslaving Divine Realm cultivators with the Tower still required some time.
“The time hasn’t changed. Lower Divine Realm cultivators need influence for ten thousand years, middle Divine Realm cultivators need influence for a hundred thousand years, and higher Divine Realm cultivators need influence for a million years…” Lin Yun mused internally.
One million years…
Next, it was time for the experiment.
He would see whether he could use the Heavenly Principle Tower to bring these Divine Realm cultivators into the Netherworld.
Previously, Lin Yun had tried and found it impossible, but at that time, the Heavenly Principle Tower was only enabling Divine Realm powerhouses of the Spirit World to enter its space normally.
Now that the Heavenly Principle Tower had enslaved these cultivators, theoretically, they had become a part of the Tower.
Moreover, since Lin Yun had now broken through to the seventy-two layers of the Netherworld, his control over the Netherworld had also strengthened. He wanted to see if it was still impossible, or if the resistance had weakened somewhat, and with his strong control over the Netherworld, whether he could bring these Divine Realm cultivators into the Netherworld.
