Book 12 Qin Yu – Chapter 36 – The Thirty Six Heavenly Stars

[TL: In Daoism, there lived a god in every Heavenly Star and a god in every Deity Star of the Big Dipper Star Cluster. There are 36 Heavenly Stars and 72 Deity Stars. I have no idea what the Big Dipper Star Cluster is.]

"The Hidden Emperor Star is divided into three major regions. One of them is the nucleus region of the Hidden Emperor Star — Hidden Lead. Hidden Lead is the region for the dwelling of the Hidden Emperor, his friends and descendents. No outsiders are allowed inside."

Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu and Qin Yu were standing on their floating clouds and flying in the air. Ao Wuming was currently introducing the Hidden Emperor Star to Jun Luoyu and Qin Yu.

Jun Luoyu had only cultivated for a couple hundred years. Although he was powerful, he didn't know any more than Qin Yu when it came to Immortal, Devil and Demon realms.

"Three regions, one of them is the Hidden Lead. What about the other two?" Qin Yu asked.

Ao Wuming laughed and said. "The other two regions are 'East Star City' and 'West Star City.' Although they're called cities, they actually are not cities."

"Oh?" Jun Luoyu grew curious.

Ao Wuming laughed and said. "This Hidden Emperor Star is immensely large. Its diameter is more than one billion miles. The 'East Star City' and the 'West Star City' are not even a tenth of a billion miles. In actuality, rather it is that the East Star City and the West Star City, they're both composed of a major city and numerous defensive cities that surround them."

"Defensive cities?" Qin Yu was confused as to what Ao Wuming meant by that.

"Defensive cities are cities that protect the 'main city' like guardians. For example, the East Star City's main city is surrounded by eight defensive cities on all sides. The entirety of the defensive cities and the main city is known as the 'East Star City.' The West Star City is the same. The only difference is that the West Star City has even more defensive cities; a total of sixteen!" Ao Wuming carefully explained.

Understanding it, Qin Yu laughed. "This Hidden Emperor Star is truly unusual. Especially the concept of defensive cities, I've never seen it in other planets."

Jun Luoyu sighed in admiration.

"Come, let me take you guys to these places. Let's go check out Hidden Lead first."

Following which the three began to proceed directly toward 'Hidden Lead', one of the three major regions.

With their speeds, after a short while, they had arrived in front a boundless and vast region. This region appeared to be filled with boundless mountains, trees, marsh, and so on.

"We can't go any forward." Ao Wuming said as he descended along with Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu.

Seeing the boundless region in front of them, Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu both were clearly able to perceive that not far away, there was an enormous restricting energy that was continuously drifting out from the boundaries of the region.

Ao Wuming pointed at this boundless region and laughed. "This is the nucleus region of the Hidden Emperor Star 'Hidden Lead.' The Hidden Lead has a circumference of several tens of million miles. However, the amount of people who live there is extremely low. As a result, the surrounding seems to be devoid of signs of habitation."

Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu nodded.

"Big brother Wuming, is there no way to enter this Hidden Lead?" Asked Qin Yu.

Wuming Laughed and said. "Of course there is a way to enter. Even Hidden Lead has an entrance. It's just that, the entrance is guarded by the people from within the Hidden Lead and only those who obtain their permission are allowed enter."

"Haha. With my strength, I can naturally force my way in. Only that it's very rude toward the Hidden Emperor."

Qin Yu started spreading his Immortal Awareness.

However, when his Immortal Awareness came into contact with that immense restriction field, unexpectedly, no matter what he did, he was unable to penetrate it. He was only able to sense that this enormous restriction field contained an astonishing energy.

"Qin Yu, you should stop trying." Ao Wuming told Qin Yu to stop. "This enormous restriction barrier was something that was deployed together by the top three experts of the Hidden Emperor Star. What I said earlier of using my strength and forcing my way through was only meant for the entrance. As for this restriction field, trying to break through it is simply impossible."

"The top three experts of the Hidden Emperor Star?" Jun Luoyu looked toward Ao Wuming.

Qin Yu was also confused, shouldn't the strongest person in the Hidden Emperor Star be the Hidden Emperor? How come there's this 'top three experts' of the Hidden Emperor Star then?

"Although the Hidden Emperor's sphere of influence only consist of the Hidden Emperor Star; rather, it only consists of the 'Hidden Lead' of the Hidden Emperor Star. Even then the major powers of the Immortal Realm, Emperor Yu, Profound Emperor and Cyan Emperor, don't dare to offend Hidden Emperor. If the Hidden Emperor Star only had Hidden Emperor alone, then Emperor Yu and gang could use their numerous subordinates and battle tactics against him and wouldn't be scared of him."

Ao Wuming continued to explain in detail. "This Hidden Emperor has two experts as his subordinates, the Black and White Immortal Emperors. Although I called them 'subordinates,' Hidden Emperor instead calls the Black and White Immortal Emperors as his close friends."

"Are those two very strong?" Jun Luoyu frowned. "How come I've only heard of the Hidden Emperor of the Hidden Emperor Star and not anything about the Black and White Immortal Emperors?"

Ao Wuming laughed. "The Black and White Immortal Emperors don't care about fame and reputation. They also rarely engage in worldly matters. Thus, their reputation is naturally not renowned. However, their strength was not something to be doubted. That's because... they are both level eight Immortal Emperors."

Jun Luoyu was startled.

Qin Yu was also shocked.

He knew that Emperor Yu was a level eight Immortal Emperor.

However, this Hidden Emperor was a bit too valiant. Not only was he a level nine Immortal Emperor himself, even his two friends were both level eight Immortal Emperors.

"If we were to compare the super experts, then perhaps only when Emperor Yu, Profound Emperor and Cyan Emperor combined their strength would they be able to compete with Hidden Emperor." Sighed Qin Yu.

"No." Ao Wuming shook his head and said. "Qin Yu, remember that the power level alone doesn't equate one's actual strength. Although Emperor Yu is a level eight Immortal Emperor, but his actual attack strength is something that's hard to determine."

Qin Yu slightly smiled.

He certainly understood this. To reach level eight of nine levels of Immortal Emperor could already be considered as reaching the pinnacle of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realms. When they fight, they would certainly need few special skills or extremely powerful Divine Weapons.

"With these three people present, who would dare to disturb the cultivation of the Hidden Emperor?" Ao Wuming laughed and said. "Furthermore, a large amount of scattered and idle Immortal Emperors are in the Hidden Emperor's Hidden Lead. The Hidden Emperor's strength... was extremely powerful. He has his own disciples and such."

Jun Luoyu couldn't help but sigh. He said. "The Hidden Emperor's influence is limited to a single Hidden Emperor Star but his overall strength is instead stronger than people like Emperor Yu. Extraordinary, extraordinary."

"The real strength in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realms isn't determined by how much territory you control. Instead, it's determined by the amount and strength of the level seven, eight and nine Immortal Emperors." Ao Wuming said solemnly.

Both Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu came to realize that.

In the war between the top powers, although level two and three Immortal Emperors were still influential, they are useless in the big picture. The people that truly influence the path of the war are those super high level experts. At the very least, they'd have to reach the level of the Green Blood Sword Immortal, Zhi Bai's level before they qualify to have the arrogance.

"Come, let's go to the East Star City's main city." Said Ao Wuming. "This time, the main reason why I came to the Hidden Emperor Star was to meet a friend. After meeting that friend, I don't have any other business here. At that time, we could all go and cultivate in seclusion together. Hehe..."

"Let's go quickly then!" Said Qin Yu with a laugh.

"Let's go!"

The three became three rays of light as they flew toward the East Star City's 'main city.'

Seeing these large cities in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realms, the mortal cities in the Qianlong Continent appeared to be like nothing more than villages. The disparity was extremely big!

The tall city wall continued to extend all the way from north to south. It appeared to be endless. Merely the walls on one side of the city were already an unknowingly thousands of miles long. Perhaps, only with the help of countless Immortal and Devil Realm experts were they able to establish such a huge city.

Inside the Main City of the East Star City.

"There're too many people." Right after entering through the city gate, Jun Luoyu started to lament.

"There's not even a hint of a man in the Hidden Lead but, there're countless people in here." Qin Yu also felt that this place was extraordinarily lively. The Hidden Emperor Star was deserving of being a famous planet within the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realms. There are experts from all over the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm and Demon Realm.

"Haha, the influence of the Hidden Emperor Star is both tangled and complicated. It is, after all, the Hidden Emperor's planet. No matter the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm or the Devil Realm, they all have their respective staffs stationed here." Ao Wuming said with a laugh.

The three strolled around the street.

Even walking on the street needed strength. Those who were weak had to walk toward the corner of the road whereas those who were strong could walk in the middle of the road. Of course, this was something that everyone in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm knew.

"Big brother Wuming, who are you meeting?" Asked Jun Luoyu.

"A good friend of mine, he's the boss of the Beasts of the Demon Realm in the Hidden Emperor Star." Ao Wuming said casually. "His power is a lot stronger than you two. I came to know him back in the days through drinking."

Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu both chuckled within.

Seems like this Ao Wuming was truly an alcohol addict.

"Jie Li, what does that young fellow possessing a treasure have anything to do with you? What, are you planning to snatch it away from him in broad daylight that too in the middle of the main streets of the East Star City just because you possess great skills? Isn't that a bit too excessive?!"

Qin Yu and gang were still chatting when they heard loud shouting coming from up ahead.

"Oh? Snatching in broad daylight? Interesting, let's go check it out." Ao Wuming evidently loved getting into the action. Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu also followed. At this moment, there was already a crowd gathered up ahead.

They entered inside the crowd to see.

Although Qin Yu's strength wasn't strong, with the assistance of the Meteor Tear, his Immortal Awareness was extremely sensitive. He immediately discovered two people in front of him. The black clothed male, with long hair, was a level nine Devil King. As for the purple clothed male, was a level eight Golden Immortal.

Standing behind the purple clothed male was a frightened youth. This youth's strength was only a level six Heavenly/Standard Immortal.

The black clothed long hair male said enthusiastically. "Jia Jin, although this youth was lucky enough to dig out this treasure, but with his strength, it's completely impossible for him to safeguard it. As they say... the treasure of a genius is the possession of the strong. You better step aside."

Qin Yu couldn't help it and started laughing.

The possession of the strong, the tamper was very smooth.

[TL:Don't know if this term came up before. Seems like it had.]

The purple clothed youth instead shook his head and said. "In your dreams. To want to snatch it in broad daylight in the middle of the main street, no matter what, you'd best forget about being able to get away with it."

"Then you can drop dead." The black clothed long hair male voice suddenly grew cold. His long hair moved without the wind. He barely moved but his body turned into a black shadow and disappeared.

"Asura Devil Technique, he's pretty skillful, his weapon is a Top Grade Devil Weapon." Ao Wuming stood aside as he provided commentary. "That level eight Golden Immortal... hohoho, their strength should be pretty close."

When these two started to fight, the crowd that surrounded them immediately retreated back.

Numerous aura waves of the two spreaded in all directions. The two experts appeared to be extremely familiar with each other, they were surprisingly equally matched instantly.

"Two idiots."

An ice-cold voice sounded.

Jun Luoyu had already arrived next to that pitiful and frightened youth. When they started fighting, their frantic aura had almost killed this level six Heavenly Immortal. Fortunately, Jun Luoyu arrived to block it.

"What did you say?!" The facial expression of both the black clothed long hair youth and the purple clothed youth immediately changed. They stopped fighting and looked at Jun Luoyu.

Everyone wanted to save their face, especially experts at the level like them.

"You!" Jun Luoyu pointed at the black clothed long hair youth. "The strong forcibly taking stuff from the weak is not something that rarely occurs. However, you tried to do in it broad daylight and even in the middle of the main street. If you're not an idiot, then what are you?"

"And you!" Jun Luoyu pointed at the purple clothed youth. "You wanted to protect him but then started fighting and completely forgot about protecting. Had I been a bit slower, this little fellow would've lost his life already. You call that protecting?"

The facial expression of both the black clothed long haired youth and the purple clothed youth were very unsightly. Regardless of who, if they're being pointed at and then scolded by someone, they would be in a bad mood.

"Scram!"

A cold shout sounded. Two large hands appeared in the air. They pushed aside the black clothed long hair youth and the purple clothed youth. Like sandbags, the two were smashed onto the walls of either side of the street.

He had dragon like muscular arms, robust body, explosive red hair and tiger like eyes.

Just standing there, his unshakable grandeur caused everyone in the surrounding to tremble in their hearts.

What a robust man!

"Meng Hong." Ao Wuming laughed and said.

"Wuming, you finally came." The red haired robust man laughed loudly and said. At the same time, he glanced at the black clothed long hair youth and the purple clothed youth and scolded. "Motherfuckers, as for your travial matters, this time, I'll spare your life cause I am in a good mood because of my brother's arrival, if in future I'm to see you guys block my road in the main street, I'll kill you."

The black clothed long hair youth and the purple clothed youth gulped, they didn't dare to say any superfluous words and immediately ran away.

Although others didn't know who this red haired robust man was, they did.

He was a Demon Emperor, an extremely strong Demon Emperor on top of that. Even if the black clothed long hair male and the purple clothed youth were to ask the seniors in their school to come, they'll still be throwing away their life.

"Meng Hong, let's chat after we arrive at your place." Said Ao Wuming.

"Sure." Meng Hong smiled at Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu. Jun Luoyu pulled that level six Heavenly Immortal's hand and followed Meng Hong.

Inside a Manor that was dozens of acres big.

"Wuming, you still haven't introduce me to these two gentlemen." Said Meng Hong with a laugh.

Ao Wuming immediately turned to Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu and introduced them. "This is Jun Luoyu. This is Qin Yu. They are both my good brothers."

Meng Hong looked at Jun Luoyu and Qin Yu, his face was filled with smiles.

"Brother Luoyu, brother Qin Yu, as you are Wuming's brothers, then you are also my brothers. In the future, if anything were to happen in the Hidden Emperor Star or the Devil Realm's Beast's territory, go ahead and come find me."

Said Meng Hong while patting his chest. He appeared to be very outspoken and straightforward.

Immediately after that, he laughed and said. "Of course, I am unable to take charge of the Bird Clan and the Dragon Clan. Anything within the Dragon Clan, Prince Wuming's words will be a lot more useful than mine." Ao Wuming who stood on the side also started laughing.

Jun Luoyu said. "Big brother Wuming, you still haven't introduce us to brother Meng Hong."

Ao Wuming did a facepalm and then laughed. "It's my mistake, Luoyu, Qin Yu, this is the Devil Realm's Beast Clan's 'Ox Demon Emperor's' Demon Emperor Meng Hong of the Thirty Six Heavenly Stars. He's very powerful."

Qin Yu didn't pay complete attention to what Ao Wuming said.

That's because he remembered what Meng Hong said, 'If anything were to happen in the Devil Realm's Beast's territory, go ahead and come find me.'

"Wasn't Fei Fei a Fiery Eyed Water Ape? He's part of the Beast Clan. Maybe this Meng Hong knows about the information regarding Fei Fei." Qin Yu started to become emotional.

Before he could even give any words of compliment, Qin Yu immediately asked. "Brother Meng Hong, did anyone called Huo Fei ascend into your Beast Clan within the past two hundred years?"

After saying those words, Qin Yu was so nervous that he was even able to hear his own heartbeat. His eyes were staring straight at Meng Hong.

Meng Hong was confused, he said. "Huo Fei? Is the one you're talking about... the latest arrival of the Apes and Monkey Clan, that super Divine Beast, that Fiery Eyed Water Ape?"

Chapter 37 – News Regarding Fei Fei

Qin Yu felt that a sudden burst of dizziness entered his brain. With eyes wide open, he looked at Meng Hong. "You said, you said... the Monkey and Ape Clan had a Fiery Eyed Water Ape named 'Hou Fei'?"

Qin Yu only asked Meng Hong about it because he suddenly thought about it, never had he expected that this Meng Hong actually knew about Fei Fei. Right now, what Qin Yu wanted to make sure of the most was whether the Hou Fei that Meng Hong spoke of was his second brother or not.

"Haha, why would I deceive you?" Meng Hong laughed loudly. "Brother Qin Yu, how about we discuss about this matter more after we reach the table? I have already prepared a banquet in the great hall."

Qin Yu knew that he was too impulsive, they were still in the corridor of the Manor. For him to try to get to the heart of the matter, he really was too anxious.

He forced down his excitement and apologized. "Yes, let's talk about this after we arrived at the table."

Ao Wuming looked at Qin Yu, he could sense the rapid change in Qin Yu's mood. That fast changing mood had Qin Yu's face to be slightly red.

With magnificent hospitality, Meng Hong lead Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu and Qin Yu into the great hall. Inside the great hall, numerous maids were standing and bowing. There were four seats in the great all. In front of every seat was a knee-high table. Each of the table was filled with beautiful culinary delicacy.

The four of them each took their seat.

After being treated to three rounds of wine, Qin Yu had calmed down a little. At this moment, he asked. "Brother Meng Hong, You had said earlier than a Fiery Eyed Water Ape called 'Hou Fei' had appeared within the Ape and Monkey Clan?"

Right after hearing Qin Yu's question, Meng Hong immediately placed down his wine cup. He crudely wiped the corner of his mouth and said with his eyes wide open. "Brother Qin Yu, regarding this matter, at that time, it had caused the whole Ape and Monkey Clan to be incomparably bustling with noise and excitement. That Fiery Eyed Water Monkey was called 'Hou Fei,' that I am absolutely certain."

"Are you sure that there's only a single Fiery Eyed Water Monkey called Hou Fei?" Qin Yu asked.

"Haha..." Ao Wuming started laughing out loud. "Oh Qin Yi, what did you think the Fiery Eyed Water Monkey was? That's a Super Divine Beast, there had only been a couple Fiery Eyed Water Monkeys in the whole history of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. As for the ones that's still alive right now, it's only Hou Fei. Did you think that it's that easy to be renowned?"

Qin Yu had a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart.

"When did that Fiery Eyed Water Monkey called Hou Fei appeared in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm?" Qin Yu had more questions. He wanted to thoroughly understand the situation so that he can be relieved.

"Very short, only a couple hundred of years ago." Meng Hong said casually.

For an expert at the level of a Demon Emperor, a couple hundred years was an extremely short period of time.

"There's only a small amount of Super Divine Beasts in the Demon Realm. The amount of Super Divine Beasts within the Beast Clan was even less. When my Beast Clan found that Hou Fei, we even had a large celebration." Laughed Meng Hong.

Qin Yu was completely certain now.

This Hou Fei that Meng Hong spoke of should be his brother.

"Qin Yu. Why are you so concerned about that Hou Fei?" Jun Luoyu asked curiously.

Qin Yu laughed and said. "Luoyu, this was something that you didn't know but this Hou Fei was actually my brother."

"Oh?" All of them grew curious.

"Qin Yu, how did you had a relationship with this Hou Fei?" Ao Wuming asked.

"Big brother Wuming, there's still a lot of things that I can't clearly describe. After a couple days you guys will be able to understand." Qin Yu passed the question by like that. Simultaneously, he looked at Meng Hong and asked. "Meng Hong, you said that the Fiery Eyed Water Ape was a Super Divine Beast?"

"Right." Meng Hong nodded with certainty. Immediately after that, he looked at Qin Yu puzzledly. "Could it be that you didn't know about this?"

Jun Luoyu also started to laugh and said. "It's not only Qin Yu who didn't know about it, I also don't have much knowledge of it. I only know that the Five Clawed Golden Dragon and the Phoenix of the Bird Clan are Super Divine Beasts. As for the rest, I know nothing about them."

"Brother Wuming, it's better for you to tell them about it. You're the most qualified one." Laughed Meng Hong.

Ao Wuming himself was a Five Clawed Golden Dragon, so it was obviously the best for him to speak. Ao Wuming laughed and said. "Haha, Super Divine Beasts... are extremely rare. Even the ones that numbered the most amongst the Super Divine Beasts, the Five Clawed Golden Dragon, it's also only a couple of them. You can even count them with your hands."

It was evident that the amount of Five Clawed Golden Dragon was less than ten.

"There's the most Five Clawed Golden Dragon Super Divine Beasts?" Said Qin Yu.

"Right." Ao Wuming laughed again. "The Bird Clan was divided into many different types. The Beast Clan was the same. Only my Scaled Clan was almost nearly dominated by the Dragon Clan. The Dragon Clan could be considered as the Scaled Clan itself. If the Dragon Clan doesn't have a lot of members, if they didn't have a lot of Super Divine Beasts, then how could they compete with the Bird and Beast Clans?"

Qin Yu, Jun Luoyu and Meng Hong all laughed.

They all knew that the Bird Clan was divided into the Eagle Clan, Peng Clan, Phoenix, Hong Luan... and numerous others. The Beast Clan was also divided into the Qilin, Lion, Ape and Monkey, Ox, Tiger, Bear and a lot more.

Only the Scaled Clan's minor clans were able to be completely disregarded. The Scaled Clan was almost completely carried by the Dragon Clan.

Or in other words, the Dragon Clan could represent the whole Scaled Clan.

"The Super Divine Beast within my Dragon Clan was only the Five Clawed Golden Dragon. However, the Super Divine Beasts within the Beast Clan are the Golden Eyed Rock Ape, Fiery Eyed Water Ape, Purple Eyed Ox Demon King and the Fire Qilin. The Beast Clan had four types of Super Divine Beasts whereas our Dragon Clan only had one. Thus, naturally our number would be slightly bigger." Laughed Ao Wuming.

Qin Yu smiled and nodded.

He now understood that the Super Divine Beasts within the Beast Clan are the Golden Eyed Rock Ape, Fiery Eyed Water Ape, Purple Eyed Ox Demon King and the Fire Qilin.

"Brother Wuming, although the Beast Clan had four different types of Super Divine Beast, but there's currently not even a single Fire Qilin in the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. There's at most only three Purple Eyed Ox Demon King and only a single Golden Eyed Rock Ape. As for the Fiery Eyed Water Ape, we had also only recently discovered one." Said Meng Hong with a smile.

Hearing these numbers, Qin Yu was amazed.

"Qin Yu, do you understand the status of that Hou Fei now?" Laughed Ao Wuming.

Qin Yu grew excited within.

How can he not understand? There's actually only two Super Divine Beasts within the Ape and Monkey Clan – one Golden Eyed Rock Ape and one Fiery Eyed Water Ape. Do one even need to think about what status Hou Fei currently held?

"The Beast Clan is mostly supported by the Ape and Monkey Clan and the Ox Clan. And because of the fact that there's three Purple Eyed Ox Demon Kings that's born with leadership, that's why the strength of the Beast Clan was very powerful." Ao Wuming praised.

"What is Hou Fei doing right now? Brother Meng Hong, do you know of it?" Asked Qin Yu with a smile.

Qin Yu wanted to know more information regarding his second brother.

Meng Hong laughed and said. "Who would not pay attention to the new Super Divine Beast of our Beast Clan? About two hundred years ago, I don't know what His Majesty the Ox Demon King was thinking, he actually sent the youngest Purple Eyed Ox Demon King, a Purple Eyed Ox Demon King that's only at the level of Demon King, Man Qian, into the Mortal Realm. Although the Ni Yang Realm was important, it's still unworthy of sending down a Super Divine Beast."

Meng Hong, as an Emperor of the Beast Clan and one of the Thirty Six Heavenly Stars of the Ox Demon Emperor, knows completely regarding the matter of the Ox Demon Emperor sending Man Qian down to the Mortal Realm.

"Meng Hong. Don't talk drivel, how would you be able to understand what His Majesty the Ox Demon Emperor was thinking?" Reprimanded Ao Wuming.

"Right, right."

Meng Hong fling his head, he knew that he was a bit hot headed.

"Meng Hong, my brother Qin Yu asked you about Huo Fei yet you went as far as to talk about Man Qian." Ao Wuming shook his head.

"Ah, my apologies, brother Qin Yu." Meng Hong immediately apologized and then said. "Regarding this Hou Fei. At that time when the Fiery Eyed Water Ape appeared within the Beast Clan, the news of it spread like a whirlwind. One of the two Emperors within my Beast Clan, His Majesty the 'Great Ape Emperor,' personally left to beat up Hou Fei and then started to keep Hou Fei by his side."

"His Majesty the Great Ape Emperor is personally keeping Hou Fei by his side?" Qin Yu felt relieved. Hou Fei was being treated as a treasure, so he would naturally not encounter any danger.

Ao Wuming puffed his mouth and said. "Although the Beast Clan possess two Emperors, but the one who's actually in charge is the 'Ox Demon Emperor.' As for the 'Great Ape Emperor,' he might take part in battles but if he were to be tasked with administering the enormous Beast Clan, that's certainly impossible."

"Although His Majesty the Great Ape Emperor doesn't do administer work, but he's naturally very concerned about the second Super Divine Beast of the Ape and Monkey Clan." Said Meng Hong solemnly.

The Ape and Monkey Clan, even with the addition of Hou Fei, only had two Super Divine Beasts.

How could the Great Ape Emperor not be concerned about Hou Fei?

"Come, drink." Qin Yu raised his cup up for a toast and started to drink happily with the rest. He was extremely happy to know news about his second brother Hou Fei.

After they ate and drank for half a day, they were on very good friendly terms.

"Brother Qin Yu, that Hou Fei, now that we mention him, he's extremely strange." Meng Hong drank a mouthful of wine and said with a frown.

"Oh? What's strange about him?" Qin Yu immediately prick up his ears. Meng Hong lay down his wine cup and said. "This Hou Fei, this Hou Fei train really hard by Great Ape Emperor's side. However, other than training, he surprisingly always wanted to go to the territory of the Bird Clan. Say, don't you think that's strange?"

"Going to the Bird Clan?"

Qin Yu immediately understand what he meant. His second brother wanting to go to the territory of the Bird Clan should likely be to seek for 'Xiao Hei.' Afterall, Hou Fei doesn't know where he, Qin Yu, would ascend to in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

However, Xiao Hei was certain to ascend to the Demon Realm's Bird Clan's territory.

"Did he managed to go to the Bird Clan's territory?" Qin Yu asked.

Meng Hong replied clearly. "In order to reach the Bird Clan's territory from the Beast Clan's territory, one must first past the Dragon Clan's territory. The journey was also filled with all kinds of danger. The Great Ape Emperor told Hou Fei directly that he would not bring him to the Bird Clan's territory until he's at least at the level of a Demon King."

"Guess what happened with that Hou Fei." Meng Hong looked toward Qin Yu, Jun Luoyu and Ao Wuming.

Seeing that the three had expressions showing that they were waiting for the answer, he contentedly said. "That Hou Fei was extremely abnormal, worthy to be called a Super Divine Beast, in a mere hundred some years, he managed to train all the way to the level one Demon King!"

"A hundred some years?" Qin Yu was somewhat amazed.

"Don't you think that's fast, how abnormal was that. Even if he was a Super Divine Beast, even if he had the guidance of the Great Ape Emperor, his speed still shouldn't be this abnormal." Meng Hong sighed.

Ao Wuming started laughing. "Haha... brother Meng Hong, had you said these words in front of others, then it's still good. However, saying those words in front of brother Luoyu, it's nothing but a jest. Do you know what people called brother Luoyu?"

Hearing Ao Wuming speaking like that, Jun Luoyu helplessly smiled.

"What people called brother Luoyu?" Meng Hong was startled.

"Genius Immortal Emperor!" Said Ao Wuming proudly. "Genius Immortal Emperor, in a couple hundred years, brother Luoyu already managed to reach level two Mystic Immortal. The time he took to reach Golden Immortal was less than a hundred years! That Hou Fei was even a Super Divine Beast and had the guidance of the Great Ape Emperor. Brother Luoyu is only a human and didn't had a master, he reached that level all by himself without any assistance."

Meng Hong looked at Jun Luoyu in shock.

Jun Luoyu could only shake his head and laugh.

"Genius Immortal Emperor, I did not expect brother Luoyu to be this outstanding." Meng Hong looked at Jun Luoyu with wide open eyes.

"Luck, it's only luck." Laughed Jun Luoyu.

Meng Hong took a deep breath and looked toward Ao Wuming. "Brother Wuming, the guests of today's fest were all extraordinary. Brother Luoyu is the Genius Immortal Emperor, then what about brother Qin Yu? Surely he's also extraordinary."

"Oh don't mention me, I'm but a commoner." Qin Yu waved his hand and laughed.

"What's there to be modest about?" Ao Wuming laughed.

He was extremely curious regarding Qin Yu.

To be able to flee from a level seven Devil Emperor, possessing an Immortal Mansion that's even bigger than his Wuming Dragon Mansion and then being brothers with the new Super Divine Beast of the Beast Clan, 'Hou Fei.'

A man like this, could he be a commoner?

"Brother Qin Yu, he's stronger than me." Jun Luoyu laughed insipidly.

Jun Luoyu had personally seen Qin Yu's astonishing speed when he was being chased by the 'White Haired Blood Devil.' A speed that even the 'White Haired Blood Devil' was unable to catch up to. Furthermore, he didn't even use his Divine Weapon, the Sky Shifter. He did all that using his skills.

Furthermore, Jun Luoyu also knew that Qin Yu could unexpectedly change his body. A man with the strength of only level two or three Golden Immortal that could easily flee from the 'White Haired Blood Devil' Xue Yileng.

Jun Luoyu was not ashamed of being inferior to him!

"Okay, you all don't have to look at me like this. To be honest... I am indeed the weakest amongst the four of us." Said Qin Yu with a smile.

Everyone had secrets hidden in their heart, seeing Qin Yu acting this way, they would not continue to question.

Merely Qin Yu's mysteriousness had already been deeply engraved in the bottom of their hearts.

"Brother Meng Hong, big brother Wuming, I have a thing to ask you two... had there been a black eagle called 'Hei Yu' appearing in the Bird Clan within the past two hundred years?" Qin Yu had always been concerned about Xiao Hei.

"Hei Yu?"

Ao Wuming and Meng Hong were both very confused. Ao Wuming promptly said. "Qin Yu, the population of the bird clan was immense. Those called 'Hei Yu' should be by the thousands and tens of thousands. Which one are you talking about?"

Qin Yu thought about it for a moment and then said. "Hei Yu is a black eagle. As for what exactly his species was, I am not even sure about that. However, I know one thing for certain... he's at the very least a Top Level Divine Beast. He might perhaps even be a Super Divine Beast. He ascended up within the last two hundred years. Do you know of him?"

Anxiously, Qin Yu looked toward Ao Wuming and Meng Hong.

Ao Wuming was the prince of the Dragon Clan and Meng Hong was one of the Thirty Six Heavenly Stars under the Ox Demon Emperor. They ought to know major news in the Demon Realm.

"Someone called Hei Yu? And at the very least a Top Level Divine Beast?" Meng Hong started to frown. Ao Wuming was also carefully thinking about the stuff he knew. Qin Yu was staring at the two and waiting for an answer.

Chapter 38 – Training of the Soul

"Have you all heard of him?" Asked Qin Yu who grew a bit impatient.

Meng Hong thought for a bit but still shook his head. He said to Qin Yu. "Qin Yu, I've never heard of a Divine Beast called Hei Yu appearing within the Bird Clan in the past two hundred years."

Seeing that Qin Yu was a bit disappointed, Meng Hong continued. "You should ask Wuming, he's the Prince of the Dragon Clan and the Dragon Clan's territory was next to the Bird Clan's. He knows more than me, maybe he would know."

Qin Yu firmly looked toward Ao Wuming. Ao Wuming started to helplessly shake his head. "Qin Yu, you said that that Hei Yu was at least a Top Level Divine Beast? And he's also just recently ascend to here within the past two hundred years?"

"Right, at the very least he's a Top Level Divine Beast." Qin Yu nodded continously.

Xiao Hei possessed inherited memories, this signifies that Xiao Hei was at the least a Top Level Divine Beast. He might even be a Super Divine Beast.

"You also said that he's a black eagle?" Ao Wuming had a slight smile on his face.

Qin Yu nodded.

"Qin Yu, let me tell you... the amount of Super Divine Beast was extremely sparse. As for Top Level Divine Beasts, they're also sparse. If that Hei Yu was a Top Level Divine Beast that ascended within the last two hundred years, then I would most certainly know about it!" Said Ao Wuming decisively. "However, I had never heard that there's a Top Level Divine Beast named Hei Yu ascended here within the last two hundred years."

Qin Yu was slightly startled. However, he suddenly came to realization and hurriedly asked. "Perhaps... perhaps he's concealing his name?"

"That is also possible." Ao Wuming loosened his firm expression. "According to the information that my Dragon Clan possess, there's three Top Level Divine Beasts that ascended to the Bird Clan. One of them was a Hong Luan, the other is from the Peng Clan and the last was from the Crane Clan. There wasn't any from the Eagle Clan."

"Therefore, the Top Level Divine Beast you spoke of was simply nonexistent." Ao Wuming once again cut off Qin Yu's hope.

Qin Yu felt a headache.

His heart began to feel somewhat jittery. Unable to help himself, he frowned.

"That shouldn't be the case, Xiao Hei ascended at the same time as Fei Fei. Fei Fei ascended into the territory of the Beast Clan, then why isn't there any news regarding Xiao Hei? Xiao Hei possessed inherited memories, and that was absolutely certain. So why?"

Qin Yu head was like being shocked by electricity. He's also extremely anxious.

Xiao Hei was the only person Qin Yu had with him growing up. Their relationship was very deep. Ao Wuming's speech caused Qin yu to have an indescribable panicky feeling from the bottom of his heart. He believed that Ao Wuming would certainly not lie to him.

And the grand Dragon Clan would certainly not had mistaken the information.

"Ah, could Hei Yu be a Super Divine Beast?" Asked Qin Yu.

Meng Hong who stood on the side started to laugh loudly. "Haha... brother Qin Yu, let me tell you. There's four types of Super Divine Beasts within the Bird Clan. Two types were from the Peng Clan. The other two are the Seven Colored Peacock and the Phoenix. There's certainly not Black Eagle."

Ao Wuming also nodded. "Qin Yu, if a Super Divine Beast were to appear in the Bird clan, then how would I not know of it? Let me tell you, there's only a single Super Divine Beast emerging within the the Bird Clan. It's a Golden Winged Peng of the Peng Clan. His name is Zong Jue."

"Zong Jue." Qin Yu understood everything.

The top individual of the Mortal Realm's Chaotic Astral Ocean, the Island Master of the Devil Peng Island, Zong Jue. Qin Yu naturally knew of him.

"There's absolutely no other Super Divine Beast other than that Zong Jue." Ao Wuming said certainly. "Besides, there had never been a Super Divine Beast from the Eagle Clan. Unless the Eagle Clan were to be super lucky and had a Variant Super Divine Beast appearing in their ranks."

Qin Yu's eyes shined.

Right.

Xiao Hei had the appearance of a Black Eagle. He's not a Peng, Peacock or Phoenix. Maybe he's a Variant Divine Beast of the Eagle Clan.

"Qin Yu, you should stop overthinking it. Super Divine Beasts are very rare. For a special Variant Divine Beast to appear, that's much harder to come by. In the whole history of my Dragon Clan, only my big brother was a Blood Dragon." When Ao Wuming mentioned his big brother, his expression grew sullen.

"The only Blood Dragon in the Dragon Clan's history?" Jun Luoyu was surprised.

How many years had the Dragon Clan been in existence?

Not many people know. However, it's certainly an enormous amount of years. However, in all those years, there's only a single Blood Dragon's emergence.

"Even if he's a Variant Divine Beast, then regardless if he's a Top Level Divine Beast or a Super Level Divine Beast, it's impossible for him to be unknown... if he were to exist, then my Dragon Clan ought to know. However, we do not know about him."

Ao Wuming's words were like Heavenly Thunders striking directly on Qin Yu's head.

"What exactly happened to Xiao Hei?"

Qin Yu was continuously thinking and immediately grew very worried. His second brother Hou Fei had the Great Ape Emperor of the Dual Emperor of the Beast Clan looking after him. This allowed Qin Yu to feel very at ease. However, what about Xiao Hei?

"This..." Seeing Qin Yu's expression, Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu and Meng Hong became lost at to what to say.

They were all able to tell that Qin Yu was very concerned about this Hei Yu.

"Qin Yu, perhaps some of the people within my Dragon Clan were slacking off and didn't gather all the information of the Bird Clan. Furthermore, the territory of the Bird Clan was extremely large, it's about as large as the Immortal Realm. In such a large territory, perhaps somewhere in it was Hei Yu." Ao Wuming went to console Qin Yu.

Qin Yu took a deep breath and then slowly exhale.

"It's alright, don't worry, I'm fine." Although Qin Yu said those words, they were still able to see that his complexion was somewhat pale.

"Come, let's drink."

Said Meng Hong loudly. Immediately after the four started to drink again. The atmosphere in the great hall immediately became lively again. Merely that within all the drinking and laughing, in the deepest part of Qin Yu's eyes were still a hint of worry.

The East Star City was enormous. Qin Yu had never seen such an enormous city before. Even the Blue Flame Star's city were a lot smaller compared to the East Star City.

Since they had arrived in the Hidden Emperor Star, Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu would not immediately start training in seclusion.

The two of them accompanied Ao Wuming and Meng Hong and began visiting the East Star City. And Jiang Yan who had been in the Wuming Dragon Mansion the whole time also came out of the Immortal Mansion to visit the city together with them.

A party of five were relaxingly strolling the East Star City.

Meng Hong was acting as the guide, he was introducing the surroundings to the four beside him.

"This building is called Heaven Connecting Building. It had nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine floors and is the tallest building in the East Star City. Within the Heaven Connecting Building were casinos, auctions, shopping malls, restaurants, tea houses, and recreation and entertainment facilities."

Said Meng Hong as he pointed at a tall building that lead all the way to the deepest skies.

From a glance, this Heaven Connecting Building does indeed thrust through the skies. It was impossible to see exactly how tall this Heaven Connecting Build was. However, the extremely tall Heaven Connecting Building would still instill a surge of emotions within those who saw it.

...

"This several hundred miles long extremely large palace is the Immortal Mansion Theme Park. There's a lot of fun and interesting things inside. When one's bored from cultivation, one could enter there and relax one's body and mind."

Meng Hong pointed at the enormous Immortal Mansion Theme Park that's not far away.

The Immortal Mansion Theme Park wasn't tall. From a glance, one could see numerous strange and mysterious buildings within it. The shorter ones were only a single floor building. As for the taller ones, they're also nothing more than a couple floors tall. On the walls of the Immortal Mansion Theme Park carved a long drifting dragon.

"This engraving of the Divine Dragon revolve around half the Immortal Mansion Theme Park's walls. Its length were over a thousand miles." Meng Hong smiled as he looked toward Ao Wuming. "The powers standing behind the Immortal Mansion Theme Park, amongst them were the Dragon Clan."

Ao Wuming nodded and laughed. "Fifty percent of the earning from this Immortal Mansion Theme Park goes to my Dragon Clan. At that time, the idea of building this Immortal Mansion Theme Park had come from a cultivator too."

"Within the Immortal Mansion Theme Park were places for entertainment, excitement, and freight. There's all sorts of places. Through the strange and exquisite game rules and the arrays of experts to control regulations, various fascinating and wondering places were constructed. Furthermore, there is a place within the Immortal Mansion Theme Park that allows practitioners to become even more intimate with and appreciate the nature." Ao Wuming was clearly very knowledgeable of this Immortal Mansion Theme Park.

"Intersting, intersting. Let's go, let's go there." Jiang Yan's eyes were shining.

The couple mens could only force a bitter smile as they followed Jiang Yan to the Immortal Mansion Theme Park.

... Three whole months passed. Under the guidance of Meng Hong, Qin Yu and them had went to every famous locations within the East Star City. They places were all strange and exquisite; so much that even QIn Yu feel that his mood had changed.

Sometimes, to train doesn't necessarily need to be in seclusion. This type of sightseeing was also a type of training. This was especially true toward people like Qin Yu who had never really rested.

Within the Wuming Dragon Mansion.

"I had seen so much in the three months, I must say... those cultivators who possessed the strength to overturn seas and rivers, not only are they extremely strong in combat, they're equally amazing in constructing a city and the various peculiar places within it." Qin Yu praised.

A building that's nine thousand nine hundred ninety nine stories tall.

The Immortal Mansion Theme Park that's several hundred miles wide. The thousand miles long Divine Dragon Carving. While it might be effortless to mention them, however when one really stood in front of them...

Standing under the Heaven Connecting Building as one looked toward the building that pierces through the skies.

Standing in front of the gates of the Immortal Mansion Theme Park as one looked at the unending Divine Dragon Carving.

Standing inside the Sculpture Building and seeing the millions of vivid and lifelike statues.

...

All in all, those majestic aura was enough to cause people to quake in fear.

So it turns out that... that using the immortal level skills on the field of art was even more awe inspiring. This was the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. A world where Heavenly Immortal, Golden immortal, Heavenly Devil, Devil King, Heavenly Demon, Demon King, and Emperor level experts exist in.

A world that's far surpassing the mortal realm.

Although this world was bustling and lively, it's also as cruel and grim.

...

"Brother Qin Yu, those are the training rooms that I specially constructed within the Immortal Mansion. You and Luoyu can go ahead and pick whichever one you prefer to train in. There will be absolutely no one to disturb you two." Smiling, Ao Wuming pointed toward a group of training rooms within the Wuming Immortal Mansion.

Ao Wuming didn't feel at ease to allow Qin Yu and Luoyu train in Meng Hong's place. That place was after all the outside world. However, this Wuming Dragon Mansion was much safer.

"Thank you big brother Wuming."

Both Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu thanked him.

"Training in seclusion, training in seclusion, all you know about is training in seclusion." Jiang Yan had her cheeks puffed up. She stared at Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu with her big eyes. "Who knows how long you'll be there once you started your seclusion training; I'll be left all alone."

"Yan'er, rest assured, I would not be taking a long time. Do you remember how long it took me to reach level two Mystic Immortal? Once I reached level three Mystic Immortal, I'll come right out. I suspect that I won't even need a hundred years." Said Jun Luoyu with a smile.

Qin Yu had finally experienced how outstanding this Genius Immortal Emperor was.

For others, to reach level three Mystic Immortal from level two Mystic Immortal, they would require an immense amount of time. Only this Jun Luoyu dared to say that he would only need a hundred years.

"Luoyu, you're totally showing off, totally showing off!" Said Ao Wuming detestfully.

Jun Luoyu exposed a forced smile. In reality, he wasn't showing off at all.

"I suspect the amount of time it takes for me to train would be about the same as brother Luoyu. It might even be a bit shorter." Said Qin Yu smiling. He had never dared to tell others his cultivation speed.

If he were to tell others that it had only been a dozen or so years since he since he ascended into the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, then Ao Wuming and them would likely be even more astonished.

'Three in Nine Soul Refinement.' Training the soul and refining the Nascent Soul to increase its energy. If one were to compare the speed of training, nothing could be faster than this.

"Good, you two, take care and train. As the training time is long and I have no serious matter in my hands, I will be staying in this Hidden Emperor Star for the next hundred years." Ao Wuming said while laughing.

Immediately after that, Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu each choose a training room and started training in seclusion.

Within a training room of the Wuming Dragon Mansion.

Qin Yu sat cross-legged and motionless on the vine mat. He does not have the dazzling radiance of others' cultivation. He also didn't have to engulf any Soul Aura. Qin Yu's cultivation was like sleeping.

Within the first layer of the Soul's Soul Space.

Clouds and mist were rolling. Within this boundless Soul Space, Qin Yu was sitting cross legged in mid air. However, his hands were constantly doing the Hand Seals of the Great God. After reaching the Earthly Soul Realm, Qin Yu's Thirty Six Forms Hand Seals were already different.

Likewise, executing this Thirty Six Forms Hand Seals consume an enormous amount of soul power; so much that Qin Yu smacked his lips.

Right after Qin Yu did a hand seal, he sensed that the energy within his soul were being franticly consumed. Qin Yu could only slowly do the hand seals. After doing two or three hand seals, he felt that he had to wait for his soul to replenish its energy become he could continue.

In order to completely execute the Thirty Six Forms Hand Seals, the amount of time Qin Yu needed was extremely long.

However, the effect was also extremely good. Qin Yu could feel that his soul were maturing at a continuous speed.

In order to the soul to transform, there's three methods. They correspond to the three types of cultivation experts.

The first method was to slowly let the soul progress with the passing of time. This method was extremely slow but very stable. The reason why many experts had cultivated for millions or even tens of millions of years was precisely this reason.

This method was very slow in increasing the expert's soul level.

The second method — Enlightenment.

Enlightenment were to let the soul achieve a profound state. Under that state, the soul would mature at a frightening speed. However, that state were something that can only be discovered but not sought.

Experts using this method, their cultivation speed were usually slow but were extremely fast at the moment of enlightenment.

The third method were something that only some special group of talented individuals possess. They were usually known as — Genius!

These people doesn't need enlightenment but their soul cultivation speed were always fast. Although their soul improvement speed were not as fast as those in the moment of enlightenment, but they're many times faster than those who use the first method.

Jun Luoyu belonged to this category. He was also the most excellent people in the third category. There's many geniuses within the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. However, a genius who achieved level two Mystic Immortal within a couple hundred years was a genius amongst geniuses.

As for Qin Yu...

He doesn't belong to any of the categories. His soul improvement speed was even faster than Jun Luoyu.

...

Time flew by. A year after another. The outside world was constantly changing. Within the training room, the amount of dust that covered Qin Yu were also continuously increasing...

Training within the Soul Space, Qin Yu was completely unable to sense the passing of time. He was only able to sense that his training had born fruit and that the Meteor Tear's Great God's Thirty Six Forms Hand Seals were a slightly easier to execute.

In the past, his soul strength only had the energy to execute two Hand Seals at once. However now, he could execute eight Hand Seals at once. And Qin Yu was still training hard. As for how many years had passed in the outside world, Qin Yu was completely unaware. He continued to be immerse in training…

Chapter 39 – The Black Hole Realm

Sitting by the pond, Jiang Yan's white toes were stirring the pound water. Her large quick witted eyes were spinning around and around. One does not know what kind of sinister plot she was currently thinking of.

"So boring!"

Jiang Yan suddenly shouted. After shouting, she saw that there wasn't anyone coming and then shouted even louder. "So freaking boring!"

"Little sister Yan'er, stop shouting." The beautiful and gentle Madam Ao walked over. "Qin Yu and your big brother Luoyu had both entered seclusion training, even your big brother Wuming had entered seclusion training."

Ten years after Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu started their seclusion training, Ao Wuming, having nothing to do, decided to also enter seclusion training.

This caused the restless Jiang Yan to be extremely pained. Initially, she was able to chat and play with her sister-in-law Lian Zhu. However, as time passed, Jiang Yan grew bored of doing that.

"It's been fifty years!" Jiang Yan held her palm toward Lian Zhu. With her eyes wide open, she said. "Big sister Lian Zhu, can you see? It's been fifty years! Qin Yu and big brother Louyu had already been in seclusion training for fifty years! I'm about to die from boredom, die from boredom!"

Lian Zhu shook her head and slightly smiled. She stroked Jiang Yan's head.

Jiang Yan puff her mouth but didn't say anything.

"Don't worry, if you really can't keep waiting for them, then you can also go and enter seclusion training. Once one started training, they'll be unable to feel the passing of time. If you were to strenuously wait for them, then the more impatient you are, the more painful it'll be to wait." Said Lian Zhu while smiling.

Jiang Yan shook her head very hard. "No, I don't like training."

"Qin Yu, Jun Luoyu and Ao Wuming, this lady would wait for another fifty years. If you all still don't come out to keep this lady company then, humph humph... then let's see how this lady would deal with you all when you do come out."

Jiang Yan looked toward the direction of the training rooms and said fiercely.

"Big sister Lian Zhu, let's go take a stroll down the street." Said Jiang Yan as she pulled Lian Zhu's hand.

Lian Zhu slightly laughed and nodded. She said. "Okay, I know that it's impossible to persuade you."

"Heehee." Jiang Yan showed a brilliant smile to Lian Zhu. Lian Zhu did a hand seal and then Jiang Yan and Lian Zhu disappeared into thin air from the Wuming Dragon Mansion.

This Wuming Dragon Mansion was created through Ao Wuming's refinement. Lian Zhu, as Ao Wuming's wife, naturally learned some techniques to control the Wuming Dragon Mansion.

In the Wuming Dragon Mansion's training room that Qin Yu was in.

Qin Yu's body was already covered with a thick layer of dust. He had trained for fifty years but neither his clothes nor his physical appearance changed slightly.

Within the first layer of Qin Yu's soul's Earthly Soul Space.

Qin Yu was sitting cross legged and in the air within the boundless space. He was continuously executing the Thirty Six Hand Seals of the Great God.

Executing the Thirty Six Hand Seals was very difficult. After training for fifty years, Qin Yu's current soul power was much stronger than before. He now could execute twelve Hand Seals at once.

However, when Qin Yu tried to continue the Hand Seals when he had reached the twelfth Hand Seal, it was as difficult as trying to ascend to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

Qin Yu's consciousness started to have a light and airy feeling, and, at the same time, his consciousness directly flew into the Earthly Soul's Second Layer Space from the Earthly Soul's First Layer Space.

"I broke through!"

The sensation of breaking through to the Earthly Soul's Second Layer Space from the Earthly Soul's First Layer Space caused Qin Yu to be completely clear-headed.

Within the training room.

"Buzz~~"

Qin Yu's cross legged sitting body started to vibrate. The dust that covered his body were all shaked off. His sharp Earthly Dark Star power circulated through his body's surface and, in a flash, there was not a hint of dust covering Qin Yu's body. His appearance was still the same cold handsomeness that he had fifty years ago.

His eyes opened, his gaze was even more profound than before.

"Now that my soul realm level was a lot stronger than before, I'm about the level of a level four or five Golden immortal. I could attempt to break through the Dark Star's later stage into the Black Hole Realm." Qin Yu's expression was no longer tranquil.

He stood up.

"The training of the soul is taciturn, it is something that I can do within this training room. However, in order for me to make a breakthrough, I am required to refine a Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul. When that time comes, my energy would be surging. It is better that I train within my Qingyu Immortal Mansion."

After considering about it, Qin Yu changed the Qingyu Immortal Mansion to the size of a speck of dust, placed it within the training room and then entered it.

From the Dark Star Realm breaking through to the Black Hole Realm.

Would it be successful?

In reality, Qin Yu doesn't have a lot of certainty. After all, the next realm for the Dark Star Realm would be the Black Hole Realm was only Qin Yu's own speculation. No matter what, if something were not to actually happen, then it's all a theory.

Within the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.

In the plaza within the main hall of Qin Yu's Immortal Mansion. Qin Yu was sitting in the middle of the plaza without moving. Qin Yu was able to feel completely reassured when he's inside the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.

"Fuu!" A blue flame that's blazing hot to the extreme started to revolve around Qin Yu's body. This was Qin Yu's current Stellar True Flame — Blue Heavenly Flame.

Qin Yu took out a level seven Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul. This Nascent Soul was the Yan Clan's great elder, Yan Gao's Nascent Soul.

Under the flames of the Blue Heavenly Flame, the Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul that doesn't have a soul to control it was easily dissolved. After a short amount of time, it melted into a puddle of golden liquid. This golden liquid started to coil around Qin Yu's body as it flew.

Qin Yu opened his mouth like a whale swallowing water, the Nascent Soul of a level seven Golden Immortal was directly swallowed by him.

A speck of dust was able to contain three thousand worlds.

Although the Dantian was located within the human stomach, but the space within it was also boundless.

Within Qin Yu's Dantian.

An extremely small black particle within the nucleus was faintly giving off an astonishing attractive force. The energy from the level seven Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul was being frantically swallowed. The Dark Star was slowly growing bigger and was undergoing some peculiar changes...

On the Qingyu Immortal Mansion's plaza.

Without any wind or sound, Qin Yu was quietly sitting cross legged in the middle of the paza. From the quietness, one was unable to tell that Qin Yu's dantian was currently ongoing a huge and astonishing change.

Suddenly–

"Boom!"

An extremely frightening energy was shot out from Qin Yu's body like numerous arrows. The energy shot all around without excluding anything. All of a sudden, a catastrophe covered the whole Qingyu Immortal Mansion...

At this moment, the defensive barrier of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion automatically started. The only thing that happened was that a faint light appeared in the plaza and the palace.

"Rumble~~~" Rumbles continued to sound in succession. A frantic wind whiz through the plaza. The whole plaza was shaking incessantly.

Qin Yu was floating within the explosions.

Swallow!

The energies that had shot to all directions frantically started to gather toward Qin Yu. Not only these energies, even the Elemental Spirit Aura from within the Qin Yu's Immortal Mansion were also gathering toward Qin Yu.

Like a whirlpool, Qin Yu swallowed the countless energy.

Within Qin Yu's dantian.

The Dark Star had already disappeared. Just like what Qin Yu planned, the Dark Star had turned into a vortex, a vortex that's swallowing everything... large amounts of energy were being swallowed up by it.

The Black Hole Realm.

The eighth great realm of the *Stellar Transformation* was the Black Hole Realm.

"What, what exactly happen?" Qin Yu was extremely shocked. He knew that the eighth great realm was the Black Hole Realm.

However, never had he expected that the Black Hole Realm had a 'black hole' like this. The Dark Star had absorbed enough energy to transform, it finally cave in and formed the black hole. However, this black hole was like a space channel that leads to a place that no one knows.

Qin Yu was able to sense that was frantically swallowing and absorbing immense energy of the surrounding. Regardless of what kind of energy it was, even the Qingyu Immortal Mansion's Elemental Spirit Aura is being swallowed.

Had the Qingyu Immortal Mansion not had its Defensive Barrier protecting it, then it's likely that Qin Yu would have also swallowed up all of the Elemental Spirit Core Stone.

At the moment the Black Hole was formed—

An ancient, extremely old and time surpassing space aura was transferred over from the other side of the black hole. All of a sudden, it binded up Qin Yu's consciousness and then assimilated into it.

Within Qin Yu's consciousness.

At the moment what that ancient aura assimilated into Qin Yu's consciousness, Qin Yu clearly sensed his transformation. It was an origin level transformation. It was a kind of feeling that Qin Yu was unable to describe clearly.

However, Qin Yu understood.

At that moment, Qin Yu felt as if he had turned from an ant into a person. Although it was an infant, he was nevertheless no longer an ant.

"The Black Hole Realm is still not stable enough, it needs energy."

Qin Yu immediately determined the reason why the Black Hole was continuously swallowing energy. Then, an idea popped into Qin Yu's head —

Blazing Profound Ring — Heavenly Flame Domain!

[TL: Combination of Black Flame Lord's Ring White Profound Lord's Ring Thunder called it Blazing Ice Ring Which is a bad translation. Also, Lord of White Ice should be White Profound Lord]

A blue flame dragon flew out and encircled Qin Yu. The Heavenly Flame the Blazing Profound Ring's Heavenly Flame Domain displayed was dependent on the user's power level.

Back when Qin Yu was still in the Mortal Realm, he was only able to produce Purple Heavenly Flames.

However now, he was able to profound endless Blue Heavenly Flames.

"A level eight Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul, I'll see if that's sufficient enough." Qin Yu took out a level eight Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul from within the Blazing Profound Ring. "The early stage of the Black Hole Realm, I suspect my strength is only comparable to level five or six Golden Immortal. Giving it a level eight Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul should be sufficient."

While this was what Qin Yu was thinking in his mind, what about the reality?

The level eight Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul turned into a golden stream after being burned by the frantic Blue Heavenly Flames. With an inhale of Qin Yu's mouth, all of the stream was sucked into Qin Yu's stomach and into the Black Hole.

"Heavens, a level eight Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul was swallowed yet this Black Hole only slightly stabilized, it was almost as if there was no change at all." Qin Yu was scared by this change.

He was merely trying to reach the early stage of the Black Hole Realm, yet exactly how much energy was required?

Qin Yu took out a level nine Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul. In the great battle on the Maple Moon Star, Qin Yu obtained a lot of Golden Immortals' Nascent Soul. Qin Yu had originally thought that it was enough Nascent Souls for him to train for a long time.

However now, it was merely the early stage of the Black Hole Realm yet it required such an excessive amount of energy.

The level nine Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul was refined and sucked into the Black Hole. "it truly is a bottomless pit."

Contrary to expectations, Qin Yu had a slight smile on his face. However, he was still somewhat worried. That's because he felt that refining a level nine Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul did indeed stabilized the Black Hole Channel within his Dantian a lot.

However, the current Qin Yu was still unable to easily control the Black Hole to make it stop absorbing energy.

"Let's see exactly how much you can absorb. I have more than enough Nascent Souls, let's see if you can absorb all of them."

Qin Yu started going extreme. He started to take out Nascent Souls from the Blazing Profound Ring. At a stretch, he took out six Nascent Souls.

Three level eight Golden Immortal's Nascent Souls and three level nine Golden Immortal's Nascent Soul were floating around Qin Yu's body. Under the Blue Heavenly Flame, they turned into a thick pool of golden water.

The extremely thick pool of energy from three level eight and level nine Golden Immortal's Nascent Souls were swallowed up by the Black Hole. Qin Yu felt as if he had ate a Great Recovery Pill as his stability level had leaped.

However, even though that was the case, the only thing Qin Yu was able to control was the absorption speed of the Black Hole – increasing it or decreasing it. He was still unable to control the Black Hole to make it stop absorbing.

Qin Yu's goal was — 'to make it speed up when he wants it to and to make it stop when he wants it to stop.

"Its stomach was pretty big."

Qin Yu continuously took out Nascent Souls from within the Blazing Profound Ring. He had taken out one after another... Qin Yu was dumbstruck by the Black Hole, it didn't refuse anyone and its stability level continued to rise.

After swallowing a total of thirty level eight Golden Immortal's Nascent Souls and ten level nine Gold Immortal's Nascent Souls, a fundamental change finally occurred to the Black Hole.

A golden ring of light came flying out from the other side of the Black Hole's Channel. After flying only a third of the Channel, it stopped.

Qin Yu's had a movement of thought.

And the Black Hole abruptly stopped its absorption. Immediately, the former peace had completely returned to the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. However, the density of the Elemental Spirit Aura had declined over a hundredfold. It was because they were all swallowed up by the Black Hole.

"What is that Golden Ring of Light?" Qin Yu started to ponder.

Although the Black Hole was powerful, it didn't have any attractive force toward Qin Yu's consciousness. After all, the Black Hole was something that Qin Yu cultivated. All of a sudden, Qin Yu's consciousness assimilated within the Golden Ring of Light.

"What a pure and concise energy." Qin Yu was able to clearly sense the extremely sharp energy from within the Golden Ring of Light. Its energy was even more condensed and tyrannical than the energy within the Dark Star.

Qin Yu extended his finger.

A ray of golden energy was shot out through his finger and landed on the Defensive Barrier of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.

Qin Yu opened his eyes and stood up. He had a confused expression.

"Although the energy from this Golden Ring of Light was pure, concise and forceful; but I had, at a stretch, refined thirty level eight Golden Immortal's Nascent Souls and ten level nine Golden Immortal's Nascent Souls. The energy from the Golden Ring of Light was only close to a tenth of the energy that was absorbed. What happened to the remaining ninety tenths?"

Qin Yu started to be completely confused.

Suddenly, Qin Yu's eyes shined. "Could it be because of the space the Black Hole Channel connected to?"

Even now, Qin Yu still didn't know where exactly the Black Hole Channel connected to. However, when the Black Hole Channel was formed, the ancient aura assimilated into his consciousness. The transformative sensation was something that Qin Yu was never able to forget for eternity.

"What's exactly at the other side of the Channel?" Qin Yu was unable to suppress his curiosity.

Finally, he decided... to check out the other side of the Black Hole Channel.

Qin Yu's consciousness started to flow through the Black Hole Channel. Gradually, Qin Yu's consciousness arrived at the other end of the Black Hole Channel. What he saw was a sight that completely stunned him.

Chapter 40 – Little Friend, We Were Waiting For You

The Wuming Dragon Mansion had turned into an extremely small speck within the Hidden Emperor Star's East Star City. The Qingyu Immortal Mansion turned into an extremely small speck within the Wuming Dragon Mansion. Thus, no matter what happened on the Hidden Emperor Star, Qin Yu, who was in the Qingyu Immortal Mansion would not know of it.

The Cosmic Space was the hardest to predict.

There are dangerous places that not even experts at the Immortal Emperor or Devil Emperor level would dare enter. For example, the Cosmic Fragmentary Golden Stream, the Utmost Frozen Cold Stream, the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame Stream... and numerous other kinds of frightening energies.

However, the Black Hole that was formed within Qin Yu's body, the moment it connected to a different area; a change occurred in the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

[TL: when translating Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. I have debated whether it should be Realms instead of Realm. However, after pondering over it, I felt like Realm would be better. Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm could be considered as the 'universe'. So they're the bigger Realm where the three realms existed in.]

Cosmic Fragmentary Golden Stream, the Utmost Frozen Cold Stream, the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame Stream, Countless Electric Serpents; all kinds of extremely frightening energies were rushing toward the Hidden Emperor Star with great momentum as if they're striving to be the first to arrive.

The sudden change in Cosmic Energies was something that even Golden Immortals could sense. So obviously, the experts at the level of Immortal Emperors felt it.

The experts in the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm, Demon Realm and some other special realms were all shocked.

Some of the non-famous hidden experts that are stronger than even people at Emperor Yu's level were also all roused by the event. They all sensed the astonishing change within the Cosmic Space; and, with their strength, they determined the source of the everything.

Hidden Emperor Star!

All the experts within the Indigo Bay Star Field determined this to be the answer. The powerful current of Cosmic Energies were rushing toward the Hidden Emperor Star. The news of that was quickly spread throughout the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

In about half a day's time.

All the top powers within the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm knew of it. They knew that the astonishing change in the Cosmic Energies was because of the Hidden Emperor Star. Thus, the Hidden Emperor Star had attracted the attention of the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

Within a certain pink palace hall in the Immortal Realm.

"What's going on? What exactly happened within the Hidden Emperor Star to cause all the Cosmic Energies to become mobile?" A mellow voice sounded from above in the palace hall.

"Your Majesty, could it be that the Hidden Emperor is about to undergo the Divine Tribulation?" Said a white haired and white clothed man standing underneath.

[TL: It's a bit confusing to translate. Usually emperors sit in their emperor seat, which is a few steps above the place hall where their subjects stand. Thus, they are literally 'above' and 'higher'. ]

The voice above once again sounded. "Humph, even if he was undergoing the Divine Tribulation, how could it possibly jolt all the Cosmic Space Energies within the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm? Some great extraordinary event must have happened."

"Great extraordinary event?"

The couple of people standing underneath in the palace hall looked at one another. They didn't know what to say.

"The Cosmic Energies had once went mobile before in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. However, the Energies was limited to two or three Star Fields. However this time, it extended to the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm..."

The person atop the palace hall started to mumble. "The reason why the Cosmic Energies spread to two or three Star Fields last time was because of the appearance of the Bewitching God Temple. Could it be that this time it's even more frightening?"

There was a cottage on a desolate uninhabited planet. No matter how big the storms within the planet was, they were still not in the slightest able to assail the cottage.

An kind looking old lady walked out of the cottage.

"Strange, strange. How could the an Energy Fluctuation that extended into the whole Cosmic Space occur in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm?" The old lady's face was filled with confusion. Her brows frowned.

"The Hidden Emperor Star was not damaged at all." In a blink of an eye, the old lady had figured out the current state of the Hidden Emperor Star. "However, the Hidden Emperor Star caused the fluctuation in the Energies within the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm; why exactly was that?"

"Strange. Strange."

The old lady thought for a long time and then finally sighed and shook her head. "Sigh, that girl Yan'er is also at the Hidden Emperor Star."

All the major powers and hidden experts had different reactions to what happened.

Some hidden experts didn't bother to move, some of them continued to train in ease. However, some hidden experts believed that something major must have happened for such an unprecedented mobility of Cosmic Energies that encompassed the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm to occur and decided to leave their hermit life.

As for Emperor Yu, Mystic Emperor...and other extremely powerful bosses. They had already reacted.

In a short period of time, the Hidden Emperor Star turned into the place where all the sight in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm landed on.

In the surroundings of the Hidden Emperor Star, countless frightening Energies started to whistle, surge and even ram into each other. However, what's strange was that... none of these Energies tried to assail the Hidden Emperor Star.

As the time passed, the amount of Energies surrounding the Hidden Emperor Star continued to grow.

Frightening!

The people living in the Hidden Emperor Star were trembling with fear. Cosmic Energies were gathered in the surroundings of the Hidden Emperor Star, even one percent of any of them were able to completely destroy the Hidden Emperor Star. Even if the Hidden Emperor and the Black and White Great Immortals were to join hands, it would still be for naught.

"Brother Li, quickly leave this Hidden Emperor Star. It's too dangerous. Who knows when the Hidden Emperor Star might be destroyed."

"Yes, wait a moment, I'll leave immediately."

"You are all trying to leave the Hidden Emperor Star? What fools. Such an extraordinary thing had never happened before in the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Even if you were to die, as long as you can experience such a thing, then you should be able to die without regret."

Cultivators, for the most part, do not fear death.

After all, majority of the cultivators have to cultivate for thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years. Due to their long life, they do not have serious attachment to life and death. The value of their existence was their respective goals.

Inside the Hidden Lead of the Hidden Emperor Star.

"Big brother, now that such an astonishing change had occurred in the Cosmic Space and the origin of this was our Hidden Emperor Star; third brother and I remained puzzled even after pondering over it for a hundred times. " Said a black clothed and black haired middle aged man.

A white clothed and white haired man also nodded and said. "Big brother, as you are the most knowledge amongst us, do you know the cause for this? Could it be because you're about to undergo the Divine Tribulation?"

A black bearded middle aged man who had his head raised up and looking the sky smiled and said. "Second brother, third brother, even if I were to undergo my Divine Tribulation, how could it possibly lead to the fluctuation of the Cosmic Space Energies in the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm? Furthermore, there's still a period of time before my Divine Tribulation."

"In that case, what's the cause for this?" The black clothed black haired man and the white clothed white haired man both started to puzzle.

"Second brother, third brother, do you still remember scene of the arrival of the Bewitching God Temple to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm?" Black bearded middle aged man faintly smiled and said.

The black clothed black haired man nodded. "Last time during the arrival of the Bewitching God Temple, we were still extremely weak nobodies. However, the Cosmic Space Energies that were fluctuated from the arrival of the Bewitching God Temple, while it stunned everyone, it still only covered two or three Star Fields."

"Big brother. You think that something similar to the Bewitching God Temple has appeared in the Hidden Emperor Star?" The white clothed white haired man had a slight happy expression on his face.

"No."

The black bearded middle aged man shook his head. "The Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm's Energies fluctuation was absolutely not that simple. At the very least, I'm still unable to determine... Have a look at those Energies gathered around the Hidden Emperor Star."

"Big brother, you can stop. Those Energies came from the extremely dangerous Cosmic Space. With so many of them gathered here, if a hundredth of them were to strike us, then our whole Hidden Emperor Star would be turned into ashes, us three included."

The assembly of so many frightening energies.

Even the strongest three individuals in the Hidden Emperor Star have to admit... even if only one percent or even a tenth of a percent were to strike them, they would be unable to resist it.

One could not blame the countless experts within the Hidden Emperor Star wanting to escape using the Interstellar Conveying Arrays.

Merely, the Hidden Emperor Star had limited amount of Interstellar Conveying Arrays yet the amount of people wanting to flee were much more than that. Interstellar Conveying Arrays was a point to point transmission. It do not have to care about the Energy Fluctuations in the surroundings of the planet. Thus, it is very safe.

However, the Greater Teleportation is different. The Greater Teleportation was an assimilation with the world in order to conduct its teleportation. The surroundings of the planet was covered with frightening energies; thus, Greater Teleportation was completely impossible to do.

Therefore... the amount of people that managed to flee was extremely small.

At the same time, there was even more people coming into the Hidden Emperor Star from the outside. Most of these people are experts dispatched from the major powers.

As for super experts like Emperor Yu and them; they were not willing to risk their own lives and merely dispatched subordinates under them. However, Emperor Yu, Blood Devil Emperor and other super experts have, nevertheless, rushed into planets like the Blue Flame Star that could lead directly into the Hidden Emperor Star.

The extremely frightening Cosmic Space Energies in the surroundings of the Hidden Emperor Star were continuously gathering. Although it was growing larger and larger, but because there's truly too much frightening Cosmic Space Energies gathered together, even the Hidden Emperor Star started to change a little.

For example, the Elemental Spirit Energy of the Hidden Emperor Star started to surge violently. The space was also no longer stable.

All in all... it was like the end of world.

"Why did my wife called me?" Ao Wuming was confused as he walked out from his training room. He was still doing seclusion training when Lian Zhu used her Demon Awareness to call him continuously.

Immediately after coming out, Ao Wuming's expression changed. "What's going on with the Hidden Emperor Star?"

As the master of the Wuming Dragon Mansion, he was easily able to sense the change in the space outside of the Wuming Dragon Mansion. At this moment, the space in the Hidden Emperor Star was slightly fluctuating. Furthermore, it's fluctuating nonstop.

"Big brother Wuming, you finally came out." Said Jiang Yan with her eyes wide open.

"Wuming, news have arrived from the Dragon Clan stating that half a day ago that all the Cosmic Space Energies started to fluctuate and started to continuously gather toward the Hidden Emperor Star." Lian Zhu had a serious expression.

Ao Wuming's expression changed. He immediately took out his Transmission Spiritual Pearl.

"The entire space of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm?" Ao Wuming found it a bit hard to believe.

From his knowledge and experience, he naturally knew that Energies in the entire Cosmic Space had started to move was an extremely shocking matter.

"That's right, the current Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm already have countless frightening energies gathered within. There's the Cosmic Fragmentary Golden Stream, the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame Stream, Cauterizing Dark Stream... all in all, there's all kinds of frightening energies gathered in the surroundings of the Hidden Emperor Star." Lian Zhu's expression was very serious.

"How could that be?" Ao Wuming was astonished.

Cosmic Fragmentary Golden Stream? What is that? That is something that even an expert of Ao Wuming's strength would likely be broken into pieces the moment he entered. Even the soul would be broken into pieces.

Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame Stream?

The Heavenly Flame was composed of the regular Purple Heavenly Flame, the next level was the Blue Heavenly Flame and the level after that was the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame. When burned by the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame, if one didn't have the protection of Divine Armors, then one could prepare to die.

Furthermore, there's a lot of other frightening Energies of the same level gathered here. With so many Energies, if they were to fall...

Then no matter who, even if it was the Hidden Emperor himself, he would still be turned into ashes.

"Quickly, call Luoyu and Qin Yu."

Ao Wuming immediately commanded. At this moment, Ao Wuming's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He wasn't worried about himself but he was worried about his wife, his brothers and his friends.

Within the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, Qin Yu was motionlessly standing on the plaza with his eyes closed.

Within Qin Yu's Dantian.

After passing through the Black Hole Channel, Qin Yu's consciousness finally arrived at the other side of the Black Hole Channel. However, what he saw on the end of the channel was a scene that's hard to believe.

"What kind of space is this?"

Qin Yu looked at the other side of the Black Hole Channel.

It was an enormous and boundless space. However, this space was crammed full with a special substance. This kind of substance was like essence, however, unlike essence, they were flowing.

They seemed like... flour paste!

Boundless flour paste!

As for the energy that from all the Golden Immortal's Nascent Souls that were refined, they were in the the other side of the Black Hole Channel. They composed of a small region of the boundless flour paste space. The energy from all the Golden Immortal's Nascent Souls composed only an region of around two to three meters wide.

Qin Yu's consciousness have passed through the Black Hole Channel and arrived at the space where the two to three meters wide energy was.

"Separated?"

Qin Yu was able to clearly sense that the two to three meters wide area that his energy occupied was completely separated from the boundless flour paste space. It seems like there's an existence of something like 'rules' that caused Qin Yu to be unable to leave the two to three meters territory of his energy and into the boundless flour paste space.

With a move of his thought.

Qin Yu's consciousness once again went through the Black Hole Channel and returned to his body.

In the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, Qin Yu opened his eyes.

"How strange, where exactly is that flour paste space?" Qin Yu rubbed his chin as he pondered. "Reaching the Black Hole Realm, why is the Black Hole Channel connecting to there?"

Qin Yu now knew where the majority of the energy that he obtained from refining the Gold Immortal Nascent Souls were. They are in that two to three metres wide area.

The territory that he had in the flour paste space was only that big.

"Forgot about it, stop thinking about it." After being unable to understand it, Qin Yu decided to give up.

Qin Yu took a deep breath. He clearly sensed his transformation.

Having reached the early stages of Black Hole Realm, the energy within his body was unexpectedly located in another space. It seems like his attack power was limited to the energy from the Golden Ring of Light. As for others, they are going to be unable to perceive anything. Furthermore... his own consciousness had also had a special transformation.

Qin Yu was not very knowledgable about the existence of consciousness .

He believes that 'soul' was the most important. As for consciousness... it was like an something that had always been there.

"I'm not going to think too much about it anymore, finding Fei Fei, Xiao Hei and Li'er is the most important." Qin Yu turned over his hand and took out a little green tower. "My current strength should allow me to open the Jiang Lan's Realm's first layer."

However, right at this moment —

Qin Yu felt that a transmission had arrived in his Transmission Spiritual Pearl.

"Qin Yu, there's a major event concerning the matter of life and death, quickly, come out!" It's a transmission from Ao Wuming.

Qin Yu was able to sense how grave the matter was. He can no longer spend his time trying to open the Jiang Lan's Realm anymore. After all, there's plenty of time in the future for him to open it. Immediately, Qin Yu rushed out of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion and then opened the doors to his training room and walked out.

Inside the Wuming Dragon Mansion.

Right after coming out, Qin Yu saw Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu , Jiang Yan and Lian Zhu all had a slightly worried look.

"Qin Yu, we will talk about this later. Let's go out and see exactly how the situation is first." Without saying much, Ao Wuming led Qin Yu, Jun Luoyu and them out of the Wuming Dragon Mansion.

Qin Yu, Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu, Jiang Yan and Lian Zhu appeared in Meng Hong's manor.

"Look toward the sky." Said Lian Zhu.

Everyone raised their head and looked toward the sky.

Now that there's too much frightening energies gathered there, it was now possible to see them just by raising one's head. The whole sky was covered densely covered with all kinds of colored frightening energies continuously flowing.

However, soon after Qin Yu and them raised their head to look, all of the frightening energies started to flow rapidly.

Soon after,

All of the different colored energies flowing actually formed a large sentence covering the entire sky — "Little friend, we were waiting for you."

At the same time, the words started to dazzle brilliantly, illuminating the whole Hidden Emperor Star.

When Qin Yu and them saw those words, countless experts within the Hidden Emperor Star also saw those words.

Everyone was dumbstruck!

Chapter 41 – Who is the Little Friend?

The golden light was dazzling. However, countless people on the Hidden Emperor Star still had their eyes wide open as they looked toward the sky and the words on the sky — 'Little friend, we were waiting for you.'

Silence.

A strange silence!

Cosmic Fragmentary Golden Stream, Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame Stream, Cauterizing Dark Stream... all kinds of frightening energies were surrounding the Hidden Emperor Star. They densely covered the whole Hidden Emperor Star. No one had expected that finally, they would form a series of words.

The whole Hidden Emperor Star grew silent. Everyone was dumbfounded.

However, after a short period of time had passed... the entire Hidden Emperor Star grew noisy. As though there was an explosion, everyone in the Hidden Emperor Star started making noise. They were all discussing their astonishment.

What exactly was going on?

The frightening Cosmic Energies of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realms all had gathered here only to form a series of words?

On the Blue Flame Star.

Emperor Yu was grasping his Transmission Spiritual Pearl. He had just received an information transmission from his subordinate at the Hidden Emperor Star. Emperor Yu was also completely astonished and confused. The series of words not only brought him immense shock, it also brought him something that was a whole lot deeper.

"Controlling all the energies in the entire universe, what kind of remarkable ability is that?" Emperor Yu shivered in his heart.

Emperor Yu clearly understood that the gap between him and the existence that controlled all the energies within the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was like the difference between an ant and a giant. The gap was as wide as Earth was from Heaven.

"Could those people possibly be... from the Divine Realm?" Emperor Yu guessed to himself. "'Little friend, we were waiting for you.' What exactly is the meaning of this sentence? The person who could cause such a large disturbance, what exactly was he planning?"

Actually, Emperor Yu already had a guess in his heart. However, he didn't dare to accept it.

It wasn't that they didn't have people in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm that had ascended to the Divine Realm. However, never had such a large disturbance happened before.

Thus, he didn't believe that ascending to Divine Realm would allow the super experts in the Divine Realm to cause such a large disturbance.

"Could it be that... a certain big shot of the Divine Realm reincarnated, started cultivating, and now that he had cultivated successfully, the super experts of the Divine Realm caused such a big disturbance to congratulate him?"

This guess of Emperor Yu was a bit comical. However, Emperor Yu was unable to think of any other reason than this.

"Little friend, little friend, who exactly is this little friend?"

Emperor Yu walked to the window and looked toward the sky. "Seems like I will have to go to the Hidden Emperor Star."

Not only Emperor Yu; Mystic Emperor, Cyan Emperor, Blood Devil Emperor, Black Devil Emperor, Asura Devil Emperor, Ox Demon Emperor of the Beast Clan, Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Clan... all the big shots of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realms had obtained the information. They all started to ponder who exactly was this 'the little friend' referring to.

Who is this little friend?

Not only were these big shots thinking about it. Everyone on the Hidden Emperor Star was thinking about it. And, likewise... Qin Yu, Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu and gang were also thinking about it.

In the main hall of Meng Hong's manor, a couple of people were drinking while discussing.

"Strange, so very strange. I, Meng Hong, have lived for so long yet I've have never heard of such a strange occurrence before. To maneuver all the Cosmic Energy and have them assemble here all to form a series of words? And the words even said 'Little friend, we were waiting for you!'" Said Meng Hong after drinking a large mouthful of wine.

"Not only is it strange, it's also enough to cause one to tremble."

Ao Wuming sighed in awe. "When I saw those words that were formed by countless frightening Cosmic Energies coming together, the feeling of oppression that it brought to my heart was extremely strong."

"That's right, at that time, I had a suffocating sensation." Said Jun Luoyu in approval.

The rest of the people also nodded in succession.

Cosmic Fragmentary Golden Stream, Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame Stream and other energies of those level gathering in one place on the sky forming a dense layer. Who would not be worried or scared when they had seen that? However, all these energies converged into a series of words.

The feeling of oppression was something that needn't be explained.

"Qin Yu, what do you think?" Ao Wuming suddenly looked towards Qin Yu.

"I," Qin Yu nodded. "was shocked as I stood there."

He merely had a shock, Qin Yu did not sense any feeling of oppression in his heart.

Actually, the current Qin Yu was surprised about one thing. Ever since he had reached the Black Hole Realm, the feeling he had in his heart when he looked at Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu and rest was completely different.

In the past, when he looked at super experts like Ao Wuming, he naturally had a type of high respect feeling in the deepest parts of his heart.

However now, Qin Yu felt very calm when he looked at the level seven Demon Emperor Ao Wuming. It was as if he was looking at someone from a third person's point of view. He was observing everyone in a detached manner. He no longer had any sense of oppression. It was as if he was the Heavens looking down on everyone.

Qin Yu turned around. His gaze looked past the doors and into the sky.

Even if it was those frightening Cosmic Energies, Qin Yu's heart still didn't have the slightest feeling of fear. It was completely tranquil.

"Qin Yu, you seem somewhat different from before." Said Jiang Yan as she stared at Qin Yu.

"Oh, different? What's different about me?" Said Qin Yu smiling.

Lian Zhu also nodded and said seriously. "You have indeed changed. How should I say it, it's like... you've become a bit more matured."

"Matured?" Qin Yu was amazed, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu, Meng Hong and rest all started laughing.

Ao Wuming laughed and said. "Qin Yu did change slightly. I reckon you've had a breakthrough in your training. Say, Qin Yu, am I right or wrong?"

Qin Yu nodded and said. "I did indeed have a slight breakthrough in my power, I reckon this is precisely the cause."

"Let's not talk about this anymore, instead, what kind of existence do you all think was able to control all the Cosmic Space Energies to form those words?" With a solemn expression, Jun Luoyu looked toward the sky outside the manor. It was covered with a dense layer of frightening energies.

To be confronted with that kind of existence, Jun Luoyu and them were unable to help themselves from admiring it.

Jiang Yan laughed with a hee hee sound. "Who cares about who he is? He's certainly someone that's very powerful. According to what my granny had told, even level nine Immortal Emperor level experts are unable to influence the flow of the Cosmic Energies. To be able to create such a large disturbance, I reckon that he must be someone from the Divine Realm. Furthermore, he must be a high level expert in the Divine Realm."

"Yan'er, be a bit more serious." Ao Wuming's expression was very serious. "The remarkable ability of the Divine Realmers is not something that you can imagine; in the future, you must not make absurd comments about the Divine Realm."

"Oh. I understand." Said Jiang Yan with a sullen expression.

Ao Wuming stood up from his seat and walked out. He walked out to the hall, into the courtyard and looked up toward the sky. In the sky, the dense layer of frightening energies continued to form those words — 'little friend, we were waiting for you."

"Little friend, who exactly is this 'little friend'?" Muttered Ao Wuming in a low voice.

Jun Luoyu and Meng Hong also walked out. When they saw those words, they had the same kind of puzzled expression on their face. Evidently, they were also trying to guess who exactly this 'little friend' was referring to.

"Little friend, who exactly is it referring to?" Qin Yu also started to guess when he saw those words.

Who exactly is this little friend?

No one knows.

Perhaps, only this existence who was surpassing the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm and had caused this tremendous disturbance knew of who this little friend was.

However, one thing was mostly certain for — this little friend was surely in the Hidden Emperor Star. Otherwise, why would all these Cosmic Energies gather in the surroundings of the Hidden Emperor Star?

Qin Yu, Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu, Jiang Yan, Lian Zhu and Meng Hong all had their heads raised toward the sky. They were looking at the words and pondering about who this little friend was. At this moment, in the Hidden Emperor Star, countless people were pondering about the same thing. They were guessing about who exactly this 'little friend' was.

Suddenly —

"Boom!"

As if the heavens were falling and the earth were cracking, the dense layer of frightening energies on the sky exploded. A rumbling voice echoed through the whole heaven and earth.

"Little friend, train quickly, we are waiting for you, ha ha..."

A clear voice sounded through the whole heaven and earth. For some unknown reason, the voice echoed through every part of the Hidden Emperor Star. It echoed in the ears of everyone. It echoed in the minds of everyone. It echoed in the deepest part of everyone's soul!

Regardless of whether they're infants, mortals, cultivators or even experts of the Hidden Emperor's level.

They were all unable to reject this voice from sounding in their ears, mind and soul.

Everyone was once again stunned.

"Boom!"

Two frightening energies of completely different attributes collided into each other and then exploded. Like fireworks, they were gorgeous and brilliant. However, the vibration caused by the explosion had turned into nothingness when it approached the Hidden Emperor Star.

The Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame Stream collided with the Utmost Frozen Cold Stream.

The Cauterizing Dark Stream collided with the Cosmic Fragmentary Golden Stream.

The Sand Flame Stream collided with the Bird Meteor Stream.

All kinds of Cosmic Energies of different attributed collided and exploded. One by one, gorgeous fireworks formed in the skies of the whole Hidden Emperor Star. However, the space fluctuation caused by the explosions were completely unable to penetrate into the grounds of the Hidden Emperor Star.

The Hidden Emperor Star was not damaged in the least.

Everyone, including the Hidden Emperor and the Black and White Dual Emperors, had an astonished expression on their face. Who had ever seen such gorgeous fireworks before?

These countless frightening Cosmic Energies exploded for close to an hour. Finally, they vanished like thin smoke into air. The strange Cosmic Energies that were created from the explosions once again turned into powerful streams and started to flow out in all directions of the universe.

The surroundings of the Hidden Emperor Star finally returned to the tranquility that it had before.

"What is this? Fireworks?" Qin Yu was truly startled.

Back when he was in the Qianlong Continent, there were mortals that had already researched into fireworks created by black gunpowder. However, the 'fireworks' that's created by the collision of frightening Cosmic Energies were even more gorgeous.

All the Cosmic Energies had left the Hidden Emperor Star. The Hidden Emperor Star had became auspicious and peaceful like before. However, in everyone's heart was a single matter.

Other than the Hidden Emperor, there was an even more mysterious 'little friend' on the Hidden Emperor Star.

Within the Hidden Lead of the Hidden Emperor Star.

In a small bamboo forest. Within a bamboo house, a couple stone stools and a couple stone tables, were placed.

The white clothed white haired man and the black clothed black haired man were sitting around a stone table in the bamboo house. Another black bearded middle aged man was holding his teacup as he looked up toward the boundless sky.

Suddenly, a white haired old man walked over. He saw the black bearded middle aged man, cupped his hands in respect and said. "Master..."

"I already know, let Emperor Yu in." The black bearded middle aged man said calmly.

"Yes, master."

The white haired old man didn't say much. His master knowing about the arrival of Emperor Yu was not something for him to be surprised about.

"It's likely that a lot of people would be coming soon. Mystic Emperor, Black Devil Emperor and other people like them. You need not block them, it would suffice if you were to allow them to come in directly." Said the black bearded middle aged man.

"Yes."

The white haired old man accepted the orders, turned around and left. Right after the white haired old man disappeared into the bamboo forest, a man dressed in a purple gown appeared in the middle of the bamboo forest. This man was precisely Emperor Yu.

"Brother Lin, you've truly startled me. The Hidden Emperor Star that you controlled was surprisingly capable of having such a large disturbance occurring." Emperor Yu walked in slowly. He had a faint smile on his face.

Emperor Yu's pace was neither fast nor slow. However, it had a strange rhythm. The whole bamboo forest, as if it was following the rhythm, also started to move up and down...

"Old boy Feng Yu, I suspect you're almost at the level of level nine Immortal Emperor." Said the black bearded middle aged man with a smile.

There weren't many people in the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm that dared address Emperor Yu as old boy Feng Yu. However, the Hidden Emperor of the Hidden Emperor Star was one of them.

"Brother Feng Yu."

The Black and White Dual Great Immortal Emperors got up at the same time. They smiled and greeted Emperor Yu.

Emperor Yu nodded his head and said. "Brother Lin, I presume that you have experienced the 'great disturbance' that had just occurred in the Hidden Emperor Star? Such a large disturbance was extraordinary."

"It was indeed extraordinary. However, I am still very confused." The Hidden Emperor had a smile mocking smile on his face.

The Black and White Dual Great Immortal Emperors didn't interrupt the conversation. They sat down and started to drink their tea calmly.

Emperor Yu sighed in awe. "Cosmic Fragmentary Golden Stream, Bird Meteor Stream, Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame Stream... the gathering of countless frightening Cosmic Energies from all around the universe around the Hidden Emperor Star. Such a large disturbance was unprecedented in history of the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm."

"That's right." The Hidden Emperor also sighed in awe.

"The Bewitching God Temple was an extraordinary existence. However, the arrival of the Bewitching God Temple on the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm only caused the Cosmic Energies of two of three Star Fields to fluctuate. However, this time around... the disturbance was too terrifying." Emperor Yu's eyes were burning with radiance.

"Brother Lin, who exactly is this little friend?" Emperor Yu suddenly asked.

Hidden Emperor shook his head. "I don't know."

"Brother Lin is the master of the Hidden Emperor Star, if such an extraordinary person were to appear in the Hidden Emperor Star, then how could brother Lin not know of it?" Said Emperor Yu while smiling.

Hidden Emperor slightly smiled. He walked to next to the stone table. He added some tea into his teacup and then said tranquilly. "Little friend, it's not that easy finding out who that little friend is. However, he should be someone on the Hidden Emperor Star."

And right at this moment —

Hidden Emperor, Emperor Yu and the Black and White Great Immortal Emperors all looked toward the narrow path in the bamboo forest.

Wearing a cyan garment, a long flute in his hand and an extremely charming smile that was able to cause one to fall in lust.

"There's truly a lot of people arriving at my tiny place today. Emperor Yu had just arrived and now Cyan Emperor has also arrived." Said Hidden Emperor while laughing.

Emperor Yu saw Cyan Emperor and promptly smiled. He said. "Brother Chi Qing."

Cyan Emperor, Chi Qing, had a very special position in the Immortal Realm. Although he was the boss of one of the Three Great Powers, Cyan Emperor, Chi Qing, was different from the bosses of the other two Great Powers. That's because the amount of time the Cyan Emperor, Chi Qing, had spent training was extremely long.

It was so long, long enough to make people shiver.

Even the level nine Immortal Emperor, Hidden Emperor's cultivation time was a magnitude lesser than the Cyan Emperor. Cyan Emperor, Chi Qing, had another nickname, 'Eternal.' This was to represent how long his cultivation time was.

What's the most strange was... this Cyan Emperor had already reached the level eight Immortal Emperor level many tens of thousands of years ago. So many years have passed, the experts of his generation had all either successfully passed their Divine Tribulation and ascended to the Divine Realm or had failed their Divine Tribulation and died.

However, only this Cyan Emperor still remained at level eight Immortal Emperor.

Merely with the length of his cultivation, no one dared to look down on this Cyan Emperor.

"Old boy Feng Yu, not only me, a lot of other people have also arrived." Cyan Emperor walked up to the side of the Hidden Emperor. He said as he turned around and looked toward the narrow path in the bamboo forest. At that moment, two individuals walked out together.

(Who's the little friend? Even Qin Yu doesn't know. Heehee~~~)

Chapter 42 – Green Clothed Girl

Two people walked out from the small narrow path in the bamboo forest. One of them was tall and had both handsome facial features and sparkling and translucent jade-like skin. However, it was hard to determine whether this person was a male or a female from the appearance. The other person was a large plump fatty.

"So Asura Devil Emperor and Black Devil Emperor have also arrived." Emperor Yu smiled as he greeted them.

Cyan Emperor, Black and White Dual Immortal Emperors and the Hidden Emperor all greeted them.

"Gong Pang, say, can you not change your appearance a bit?" Hidden Emperor laughed as he said this towards the big plump fatty. "You're the Black Devil Emperor, yet you always possess such a meatball-like appearance, it's really..."

Gong Pang was very fat. However, his expression was ice-cold. "The most important aspect of the Black Devil Path is the body. In a battle, the most optimum body figure is that of a meatball."

"Brother Lin, you'd best stop trying to persuade him. Nobody has been able to change something that Gong Pang had decided upon." Laughed the handsome yet gender indeterminate Asura Devil Emperor who had arrived with Gong Pang.

The Asura Devil Emperor was called Zi Ruxue. As for the gender... he was a male!

In the house within the tiny bamboo forest. In a short period of time, so many big shots had arrived. All of these big shots were at a super high level, aloof and remote. Many of the normal cultivators had even set them as their ultimate goal.

Cyan Emperor, Emperor Yu, Asura Devil Emperor, Black Devil Emperor all sat down in succession.

"I do know why you all have arrived at this time around." Hidden Emperor took a glance at everyone present. "Such a large disturbance happened, in the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realms, only to unexpectedly form a few words."

Emperor Yu laughed. "Not only words; at the end, those frightening energies collided with each other. It was a truly gorgeous and beautiful sight. At the same time, there were also the words of that existence which transcends the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realms. I believe you all have heard that."

Everybody's expression changed.

Heard?

That voice completely ignored the willpower of everyone. It directly sounded in their ears, their mind and then soul. Even experts of Hidden Emperor's level were equally unable to resist it.

Difference in level. That was precisely the difference in level.

"The person who said 'little friend, train quick, we are waiting for you,' how strong he is was not something that we need to think about. He was already way beyond the level of our imagination. However, as to who this little friend is, I am wondering if brother Lin have an answer to that." Black Devil Emperor looked at Hidden Emperor.

Hidden Emperor shook his head.

"Brother Lin truly don't know. I had already asked him earlier." At this moment, Emperor Yu assisted Hidden Emperor.

At the same time, Emperor Yu stood up. "Everyone, I apologize but I must leave now."

This Emperor Yu suddenly out of nowhere decided to leave first. However, Hidden Emperor, Asura Devil Emperor, Cyan Emperor and the rest of them all had a slight smile on their faces. Even the Black Devil Emperor's facial muscles trembled a bit.

"Old boy Feng Yu, you can leave first. We know about your difficulties." Said the Hidden Emperor with a smile.

Emperor Yu's old face grew slightly red. After walking for a couple steps, he disappeared into the bamboo forest.

Right after Emperor Yu disappeared, a figure of a beautiful woman appeared within the bamboo forest. Her pink silk dress was fluttering in the wind. A woman who's so beautiful, enough to move hearts, appeared in front of the Hidden Emperor and the rest.

"If old boy Feng Yu doesn't appear, then little sister Xuan Xi would also not appear." Said Cyan Emperor as he chuckled.

The person who arrived was the Mystic Emperor, Xuan Xi.

The Mystic Emperor merely faintly smiled but didn't say anything.

Hidden Emperor Star, East Star City. Inside a certain manor's garret.

Emperor Yu was currently sitting inside the garret.

"Xuan Xi's temper is way too strange. Wasn't she fine a couple of days ago, how come she's mad at me again? Sigh..." Emperor Yu sighed in his heart. He slightly had a bitter smile.

At this moment, a bald headed man walked in.

"Your Majesty."

Said the bald headed man respectfully. This bald headed man was one of the 'Eighteen Emperors' working under Emperor Yu, a level six Immortal Emperor, Yuan Lan.

Emperor Yu's expression returned to the tranquility it had before. "Yuan Lan, when I had you dispatch people to follow those people, did you manage to obtain any result?"

Immortal Emperor Yuan Lan said respectfully. "Your Majesty, fifty years ago, the Prince of the Dragon Clan, Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu and that man that Your Majesty wanted arrived to the Demon Emperor Meng Hong's manor."

"Did you manage to find out the identity of that person?" Asked Emperor Yu.

Yuan Lan nodded, he said. "Yes, Your Majesty. From the maids of Meng Hong's manor, we discovered that Meng Hong and the rest of them called that man 'Qin Yu!'"

"Qin Yu?" Emperor Yu's face had a slightly astonished expression.

To be able to flee from the White Haired Blood Devil, Xue Yileng; how could it be Qin Yu?

Emperor Yu had always thought that Qin Yu was only Lan Feng's sect nephew. He had thought that Qin Yu was only a nobody that had just ascended to the Immortal Realm. Who Emperor Yu truly held in importance in his heart was Lan Feng.

"Qin Yu? I'm afraid that's a false name that Lan Feng deliberately used." Emperor Yu laughed mildly.

"This subordinate doesn't know. However, Your Majesty had dispatched people to search for that Lan Feng, certainly that Lan Feng would also know of the dangers. Perhaps he truly was using 'Qin Yu' as a false name." Immortal Emperor Yuan Lan voiced in approval.

"Continue speaking." Said Emperor Yu indifferently.

Immortal Emperor Yuan Lan went through his thoughts before continuing. "In these fifty years, based on our investigation, we had determined that Ao Wuming and them should all be hiding within that Wuming Dragon Mansion. For a period of time, we had thought that Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu, Qin Yu and them had left the Hidden Emperor Star. However, in these fifty years, we had seen Jiang Yan and Ao Wuming's wife Lian Zhu strolling down the street. Thus, in these fifty years, Qin Yu and them should be hiding in the Wuming Dragon Mansion the whole time."

The existence of the Wuming Dragon Mansion was not a secret to Emperor Yu's intelligence organization.

"Not long ago, my subordinates had discovered that Qin Yu, Jun Luoyu, Ao Wuming and them have appeared in Meng Hong's manor and even held a banquet in the manor's grand hall." Said Immortal Emperor Yuan Lan respectfully.

"Oh?" Emperor Yu slightly smiled. "With so many frightening energies gathered in the skies of the Hidden Emperor Star, they instead dared to conduct a banquet? They're pretty courageous."

"Yuan Lan." Emperor Yu's expression turned somewhat serious.

Immortal Emperor Yuan Lan bowed. He knew that Emperor Yu was about to give him an order.

"I want you to continue to monitor that 'Qin Yu' in secrecy. As long as he's still together with Ao Wuming, you are not required to inform me. However... once he leaves Ao Wuming, you are to immediately contact me." Emperor Yu gave the order sternly.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Immortal Emperor Yuan Lan bowed to accept the order.

"Also, if that Qin Yu had any special movements, you are to note that too. After a period of time, you are to transmit all those information to me." Emperor Yu entrusted another task to Yuan Lan.

Even though Qin Yu relied on his Meteoric Tear a lot, his Immortal Awareness was very sensitive. Even if an expert of the Immortal Emperor level were to spy on him, he would still be able to easily discover them.

However...

The methods that Emperor Yu's subordinates used to investigate someone were extremely many. Even with Qin Yu's ability, he still had never discovered that he was being investigated. Furthermore, in the bottom of his heart, he had never worried about the dangers.

As for now, there's even less of a chance for him to worry!

Inside the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.

Qin Yu was sitting on a chair. He took out the little green tower, 'Jiang Lan's Realm.'

The incident with all the Cosmic Energies of the whole universe gathering in the Hidden Emperor Star had already passed. Qin Yu, with his mind at ease, opened the Jiang Lan's Realm.

"When you are able to completely control the Jiang Lan's Realm is the time when you're capable of meeting Li'er." Qin Yu clearly remembered Uncle Lan's words. Remembering those words, Qin Yu had a slight smile on his face.

"Uncle Lan had said that it'd be possible to open the first layer of this Jiang Lan's Realm with the strength of a level five or six Golden Immortal. I should be able to open it now." Qin Yu took a deep breath.

Within his Dantian, the Golden Ring of Light that appeared in a third distance into the Black Hole Channel flashed.

The power of the Black Hole was pouring into the Jiang Lan's Realm from Qin Yu's body.

The little green tower started to gradually tremble. Golden rays started to shine from within the little green tower. Gradually... as Qin Yu poured more and more energy into the little green tower, the little green tower was finally completely covered in a golden light.

The little green tower had turned into a little gold tower.

"Congratulations on opening the first layer space of the Jiang Lan's Realm. You have two more layers waiting for you. The moment when you open the whole Jiang Lan's Realm, that is the moment when you're qualified to meet Li'er."

Uncle Lan's voice echoed in Qin Yu's mind the moment he opened the first layer of the Jiang Lan's Realm.

"I opened it. I finally opened the first layer."

The golden light on the Jiang Lan's Realm had dissipated. It had once again returned to being a little green tower.

Seeing the little green tower on his hand, Qin Yu had a slight happy expression on his face. "So many years had passed, I finally managed to open the first layer of the Jiang Lan's Realm. To be able to open the first layer, it indicates that there would be a day when I would be able to open the second layer and then the third layer!"

Qin Yu's eyes were shining, he was filled with confidence.

"Li'er, we will meet again soon, soon!" Qin Yu felt that his heart was trembling. Regardless... he had finally managed to accomplish the first step.

Jiang Lan's Realm is a very special Divine Artifact. As for what level this Divine Artifact was – Middle Level Divine Artifact? High Level Divine Artifact? Or maybe the Top Level Divine Artifact? – Qin Yu didn't know.

[TL: I am putting Divine Artifact because I don't think Divine Weapon would be the best translation for a tower. 神器 literally means Divine Artifact/Tool/Weapon/Utensil. So yeah. I try my best to keep weapons for 'weapons' and armors for 'armors'. Since Jiang Lan's Realm is a tower, I decided to use artifact.]

However, he was currently the master of the Jiang Lan's Realm.

With a move of his intentions, Qin Yu disappeared from the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.

In the first layer world of the Jiang Lan's Realm.

A strange feeling. The moment he entered, Qin Yu was able to sense that the whole space here was different from the space outside. The construction of the space had some difference that Qin Yu was unable to understand.

The space in Jiang Lan's Realm's first layer was 10:1 in time compared to the outside world. When ten years passed in this space, only a single year had passed in the outside world.

With the time dilation, the Elemental Spirit Aura concentration was also changed. The concentration of the Elemental Spirit Aura in here was also ten times that of the outside world.

"Marvelous, what a marvelous Jiang Lan's Realm. To be able to change the speed of time and the concentration of Elemental Spirit Aura, oh how extraordinary." Unable to help himself, Qin Yu sighed in awe.

Qin Yu's currently cultivation level was too weak. He totally didn't know what it signified when someone was able to create a Divine Artifact that can create a space with a changed speed of time!

"Divine Artifact. A Divine Artifact with a containing a space. A Divine Artifact that one could enter." Qin Yu's eyes shined.

Space rings are powerful. However, they're only able to store items and were unable to allow people to enter.

Immortal Mansions like Qingyu Immortal Mansion were something that people could enter. However, their defense was based on the barriers. Moreover, these Immortal Mansions have a size limit. For example, the Qingyu Immortal Mansion was only that big.

But this Space Divine Artifact was different.

Not only was the space within it boundless, the Divine Artifact's defense power was also surpassing the Qingyu Immortal Mansion type barriers by far.

Once inside the Jiang Lan's Realm, even experts of Emperor Yu's level would not be able to break through it.

Opening the first layer of the Jiang Lan's Realm and becoming the master of it, Qin Yu was able to determine how strong its defense was.

With an move of his intention, Qin Yu came out of the Jiang Lan's Realm.

"Although I only barely opened the first layer, it allowed me to save ten times worth of time in my cultivation speed. It even gave me a place to hide in times of danger." Qin Yu looked at the little green tower in his hand. He was awfully excited.

Qin Yu hated the feeling of being ever fearful and nervous.

However, in order to see Li'er, he must live. And now that he had the Jiang Lan's Realm, Qin Yu now also had the confidence.

Although he didn't know what rank this Divine Artifact Jiang Lan's Realm was, but with Qin Yu's knowledge, this extraordinary Jiang Lan's Realm ought to be higher level than his Divine Weapon, Sky Piercer.

"Uncle Lan had casually given Zong Jue and Fei Fei those weapons constructed of special materials that was able to stand up to Divine Weapons. As for this Jiang Lan's Realm, when Uncle Lan gave it to me, he appeared to be very serious. It was clear how precious the Jiang Lan's Realm was."

"I really wanted to spend a couple hundred years and train in the Jiang Lan's Realm. Mn, let's go out first. Otherwise, Jiang Lan would make a scene again." Qin Yu departed from the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.

Inside a restaurant.

Qin Yu was drinking wine by himself.

"Brother Luoyu, don't blame me for being inadequate toward my brother. It's just that that Yan'er was truly too hard to deal with." Muttered Qin Yu as he looked toward the street underneath the restaurant. Jun Luoyu was helplessly following behind Jiang Yan as they shopped down the street.

Jiang Yan insisted that Qin Yu, Jun Luoyu and the rest to go strolling with her.

Qin Yu accompanied her for a while. As for now... it was Jun Luoyu's turn. Qin Yu didn't have any spirit of brotherhood to accompany Jun Luoyu and endure Jiang Yan's torments. When he accompanied Jiang Yan earlier, why was Jun Luoyu spared for it?

"I'll accompany Yan'er for a couple more days and then enter the Jiang Lan's Realm and train." Qin Yu had decided.

Training in the Jiang Lan's Realm would certainly allow Qin Yu's cultivation speed to enter a new level. Training a thousand years in the first layer of the Jiang Lan's Realm would only be a hundred years in the outside world.

He continued to drink wine silently. He was enjoying the rich and mellow flavor of the fine wines of the Immortal Realm. Suddenly —

"Miss, please sit here."

A sharp and clear voice sounded in the restaurant. Qin Yu raised his head to look. He saw a yellow clothed maid leading a green clothed girl toward the restaurant's window seat.

"Sisi, you can sit down too." The green clothed girl's face was abnormally pale.

Seeing that green clothed girl, Qin Yu quickly pulled back his eyes.

He remembered... that this green clothed girl was the girl his dumb disciple, Liu Hanshu, liked.

Qin Yu can't help but recalling the scene in his mind —

"In my lifetime, the only regret that I have is... her." Liu Hanshu who was bleeding from his eyes, ears, nose and mouth appeared to be having a fantasy. One the verge of death, his dimly lit eyes contained a reluctance. Soon after, Liu Hanshu who was bleeding from his eyes, ears, nose and mouth slowly and straightly fell. With a rumble, he smashed into the ground.

Qin Yu's body shivered, his whole mood had changed.

"Hanshu."

Qin Yu had a bitter expression. Never had he imagined that he would encounter the green clothed girl that his disciple, Liu Hanshu, liked.

Chapter 43 – Killing Someone

The sky gradually darkened. However, the people in the restaurant continued to increase.

"Miss, look at that man." The yellow clothed maid, Sisi, slightly pushed her young miss and slightly pointed at Qin Yu.

"What's wrong, Sisi?" Lin Lin looked over in confusion. "Isn't he that person we met several tens of years ago in the Maple Moon Star?" Lin Lin recognized Qin Yu with a glance.

Sisi frowned, she said to Lin Lin in a low voice. "Miss, you know that this man is awfully cold right?"

"Yes, he's a pretty cold person, what about it?" Lin Lin was confused.

Sisi continued slowly. "He had looked at you earlier and the moment when he looked at you... his gaze, mn, how should I say it? It was very melancholic very sentimental. It's like he had seen his lover."

"Lover?" Lin Lin had a stiff expression, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry and gave Sisi a glare. "You crazy girl, don't talk nonsense."

"I'm not talking nonsense." Sisi retorted.

"I said you're talking nonsense yet you still refused to admit, oh you." Lin Lin slightly smiled. Sisi however had a bitter expression. Earlier, she really did see Qin Yu's melancholic and sentimental expression.

"Ah, look at his current expression." Said Sisi hurriedly.

Lin Lin raised her head and looked.

At this moment, Qin Yu had a wine cup in his left hand. His gaze was, however, looking toward the dark sky out the restaurant's banister. He had a very sentimental expression.

"If only Hanshu was still alive..."

Qin Yu had a bitter smile on his face. No matter what, it was impossible.

At this moment, Qin Yu's mind was filled with scenes with Liu Hanshu. From the time when they first met till the time when they became master and disciple. There was also the scene when Liu Hanshu introduced him to the girl he liked as well as the final scene when Liu Hanshu had bled out from his eyes, ears, nose and mouth and died.

The reluctant expression that Liu Hanshu had when he died was something that Qin Yu incapable of forgetting.

That reluctant expression. Perhaps what he was reluctant to part with was precisely her!

Qin Yu's gaze turned toward the green clothed girl.

At this moment, Lin Lin was looking at Qin Yu. Seeing Qin Yu turning over, Lin Lin was slightly startled but she quickly reacted. She smiled and nodded. Qin Yu was startled and immediately also smiled and nodded.

After which Qin Yu started to slowly eat and drink.

After a short period of time...

"Miss, would you like to become like companion?!" A deep and low voice sounded in the whole restaurant. When the people in the restaurant heard this voice, they felt a numbing sensation throughout their body. At the same time, there was a trace of bloodthirst in the whole restaurant.

Qin Yu turned around to look.

A youngster with a pale complexion was standing in the middle of the restaurant. This youngster had a head full of crimson colored long hair. That crimson colored long hair was tied with a single golden colored ribbon. On his waist was a blade.

At this moment, this red haired youngster was staring at Lin Lin.

"Impudent." Sisi shouted. She had anger in her eyes.

The red haired youngster ignored Sisi's angry shout. He merely continued to stare at Lin Lin. "Miss, I, Guo Nu, a warrior of the Blood Devil Path, request you to become my companion. I can guarantee that I would only have you as my companion in this life of mine and would certainly not abandon you."

Lin Lin frowned.

"You're crazy." Sisi cursed in rage.

Sisi's curse was nearly what everyone in the restaurant thought. Out of nowhere, this red haired youngster wanted Lin Lin to become his companion. This was most certainly a strange and perverted thing to do.

"You." The red haired youngster stared at Sisi. "Shut up."

While he said those words, the left hand that he had on the top of his blade on his waist waved in a lightning speed. Without any power to resist, Sisi was knocked aside and started to bleed from her mouth.

"I'll ask again, are you going to be my companion?" The red haired youngster stared at Lin Lin very coldly.

Lin Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

She was currently a level three Heavenly Immortal. Even Sisi, who was stranger than her, was unable to resist him at all. What could she alone do?

"Guo, Guo Nu, right?" Lin Lin continued to have a smile on her face.

"Mn." Guo Nu nodded. "Warrior of the Blood Devil Path, Guo Nu!"

"Yes, Guo Nu." Lin Lin took a deep breath and said. "To become companions require both sides to agree voluntarily. Right now, I am not willing to do that. You also can not force me to. Understand?"

Guo Nu firmly shook his head. His eyes continued to stare at Lin Lin. With a cold voice, he said. "My level is higher than you. My strength is stronger than you. You cannot refuse."

Lin Lin's expression turned stiff.

"The weak must adhere to the strong. This is our Devil Realm's iron law." Said Guo Nu strongly.

"Brat of the Devil Realm, this is the Hidden Emperor Star, the territory of the Hidden Emperor. You better not act too impudent here." Someone was unable to stand by idly and watch anymore. A middle aged man stood up and shouted in anger.

The red haired youngster shoot a glance toward that man. "Level five Golden immortal, you are not able to match me. If you speak rubbish again, you will be dead."

The middle aged man was stared at by the red haired youngster and felt like he was being locked on by the death god. He was certain without the slightest doubt that if he were to say another word, that red haired youngster's battle blade would leave its sheath.

With merely that one sentence, no one in the restaurant dared to say anything anymore.

Qin Yu was watching.

He was able to tell that this red haired youngster was a Blood Devil Path expert that had been through countless life and death situations. However, regardless of how strong he was, Qin Yu was not willing to let him humiliate this green clothed girl.

Because... the green clothed girl was the treasured woman of his disciple.

It's just that Qin Yu was able to conclude that this red haired youngster had not threatened the green clothed girl. As long as there's no danger, Qin Yu was not going to act. He was only going to act when the green clothed girl was in danger.

"From the way that maid was thrown aside, this red haired youngster measured his strength when he attacked." Qin Yu took a glance at Sisi who had already stood back up and walked back to Lin Lin's side. Sisi only had skin and flesh injuries.

"Miss, this man is too much. Let's go back and get our senior martial brother out to teach him a lesson." Said Sisi to Lin Lin's ears.

"This is the final chance, are you going to become my companion?" Said the red haired youngster with a cold glare.

At this moment, Lin Lin also grew angry. "Guo Nu, you are a Devil Practitioner whereas I am an Immortal Practitioner. While you can force others to become your companion in the Devil Realm, I am of the Immortal Realm and would not accept such a rule."

Lin Lin pointed toward the restaurant staircase. "Get out, I don't wish to see people like you."

The red haired youngster suddenly had a slight smile on his face. He muttered. "Strange, strange. The Immortal Practitioners are indeed like what master had said. So not straightforward and so long-winded."

"Master had said to be a bit more courteous in the Hidden Emperor Star. However, it seems like even being courteous is useless. The ways of the Devil Realm is the most useful after all." After the red haired youngster finished saying those words, his right hand came toward Lin Lin to grab her.

Lin Lin's expression changed.

Qin Yu who had been calmly watching from the side had a cold shine flashing through his eyes,

"Bang!" A sharp and clear sound of a fist landing.

The red haired youngster stepped back a couple steps and then stared at a man in a black gown that had suddenly appeared.

"Boom!"

The sky that had been gloomy for a long time had finally given birth to thunder. The wind began to whirl. A storm had arrived. The storm caused the paintings in the restaurant to sway unceasingly. Qin Yu's black gown also started to fly in the wind.

Within the flickering thunder and lightning, the red haired youngster was able to clearly see the grave and stern appearance of that man.

Qin Yu laughed coldly toward Guo Nu.

"Young lady, do you remember a man called Liu Hanshu?" Said Qin Yu suddenly.

"Hanshu, you know Hanshu?" Lin Lin had a surprised expression. "Mister, you know Hanshu? Can you tell me where Hanshu is right now? Please."

Lin Lin's face was filled with anxiety.

"What is your relationship with Hanshu?" Asked Qin Yu softly.

"I, I, don't, don't have any relationship with him." Lin Lin was slightly embarrassed.

Qin Yu had a slight bitter smile on his face.

He was able to tell that this Lin Lin and his disciple Hanshu both had a somewhat hazy affection for each other. Merely, the two of them had not yet developed to the stage where they show each other their feelings yet.

"Oh foolish disciple." Qin Yu felt as if his whole heart was being crushed. It hurts, it really hurts.

Their relationship had yet to bloom, yet Hanshu would forever be unable to let it bloom. Even if this girl also liked him in her heart.

"Mister, can you tell me where Hanshu is right now?" Lin Lin held back her embarrassment and asked hurriedly. At this moment, she completely ignored that red haired youngster. The only thing in her mind was the simple and honest, easily embarrassed boy from the Maple Moon Star.

"Hanshu, he is already dead."

Said Qin Yu ruthlessly.

As if being stuck by lightning, Lin Lin stood there blankly.

"You with the black hair, move away. I do not want to have a completely uncalled battle with you." At this moment, the red haired youngster spoke out. He was able to sense the pressure that this man in front of him had on him.

"Mister, are you lying to me?" Lin Lin forced a smile and looked at Qin Yu with a face filled with hope. "Hanshu was such a good person and wasn't even a Heavenly Immortal, who would want to kill him? He won't even bully those weaker than him. He was that kindhearted. Who would have the heart to kill him? Mister, you're definitely lying to me."

At this moment, Lin Lin was still unable to accept what Qin Yu had just told her.

"I didn't lie to you. I am Hanshu's master. And Hanshu died because of me." Qin Yu said cold and matter-of-factly. However, if one were to listen to him clearly, one would still able to hear the slight trembles within his voice.

Lin Lin had a very pale expression.

However, after a moment, she merely had a bitter smile.

Qin Yu turned around and looked at the red haired youngster. "This young lady is the girl that my disciple liked, I would absolutely not allow anyone to humiliate her."

"Hanshu liked me?" Lin Lin heard what Qin Yu said and her face grew slightly rosy.

The red haired youngster slowly pulled out his battle blade from the scabbard with his right hand. The blade was extremely sharp. However, when he pulled the blade out, a very dense bloody aura came from the blade and filled the air. It was completely unimaginable exactly how many people were killed by this sword in order to give it such a terrifying bloody aura.

"I don't care, I have taken a fancy upon her." The red haired youngster stared at Lin Lin. "Therefore, she is mine. He who obstructs me, die."

Qin Yu stared at Lin Lin, his gaze grew cold.

"Huff!"

Qin Yu's long hair was scattering. At this moment, QIn Yu and the red haired youngster nearly struck simultaneously. After having reached the Black Hole Realm, Qin Yu's body does not give out the slightest amount of aura. The Black Hole energy was even more pure and concise than the Dark Star energy.

The red haired youngster, Guo Nu, was a level eight Devil King!

Qin Yu was in the early stages of Black Hole Realm. The attack power that he had in him was about that of a level six Golden Immortal.

A burst of continuous noise was heard.

The two experts were fighting in close combat yet they did not give out any bit of aura. Regular experts of their level, when they fight, they usually destroy the buildings in the surroundings completely. However, in Qin Yu and Guo Nu's battle, the tables and chairs in the restaurant was not a bit damaged at all.

The two of them separated.

"Your speed is very fast." Guo Nu stared at Qin Yu.

"Your reaction was also very fast." Qin Yu was holding a short sword in his hand.

It is a Top Level Immortal Sword. Against the man in front of him, there was no need for him to use his Divine Sword, Sky Piercer.

Qin Yu shot a glance at Guo Nu and then said calmly. "I can tell you clearly that you are no match for me. If you continue to be this unreasonable, then I would show no quarter and kill you."

Qin Yu knew that he had not used a lot of his abilities. Earlier, he had used nothing more than his speed and an Immortal Sword.

"You're boasting." Guo Nu sneered.

After saying those, Guo Nu's eyes suddenly became scarlet red. "Bang!" A fierce and violent aura started to wreak havoc as it rushed out of Guo Nu's body. Immediately, with a 'bang' sound, the whole restaurant had turned into customers in the restaurant had already left. As for Lin Lin and Sisi, they had moved far on the street and was looking over.

The floor of the restaurant that Guo Nu stepped on had turned into pieces. However, Guo Nu was still at where he previously stood. He was floating in the air.

Qin Yu was the same.

"You don't know your place." Qin Yu laughed coldly.

Blazing Profound Ring — Gravitational Domain!

Guo Nu who was about to attack suddenly felt an extremely terrifying gravity crushing down on him like an unreachable gigantic mountain. In a flash, his body fell to the ground.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, Qin Yu swung his right leg. It turned into an arc and then, like steel, it ruthlessly smashed into Guo Nu's skull. "Bang!" Guo Nu's head was twisted strangely as he was knocked flying.

"Scram."

In the skies of the East Star City, Qin Yu shouted coldly at the distant Guo Nu.

He knew that his simple kick was not capable of killing Guo Nu, he was already being lenient! However..."Hurrr!" Following an angry snarl, as if he went berserk, Guo Nu once again flew back up and toward Qin Yu.

"Gravitational Domain?" Guo Nu wiped the corner of his mouth. Bloodthirst rose in his eyes and his face showned a ruthless expression.

"Not knowing your standing."

Qin Yu started to have a killing intent. He had originally thought that this Guo Nu was only too simple and honest and that he was the kind of person that had experienced massacre since when he was young. Thus, he had acted leniently. However, seeing Guo Nu's expression; Qin Yu knew... that this Guo Nu had completely entered the Devil Path and enjoyed killing for fun.

Guo Nu's eyes were scarlet red. His crimson red long hair started to flutter in the wind..

Holding his battle blade in his hand, Guo Nu appeared next to Qin Yu in a flash.

This time around, Qin Yu did not bother to show mercy anymore.

Blazing Profound Ring — Double Gravitational Domain!

After the Black Flame Lord's Ring and White Profound Lord's Ring combined, the Blazing Profound Ring was able to execute 'Double Gravitational Domain.' Earlier, Qin Yu was being lenient and only used a single Gravitational Domain.

The rapidly arriving Double Gravitational Domain caused Guo Nu's flesh and bones to burst into a crackle.

"How could this be? How could his Gravitational Domain be this powerful?" Right when Guo Nu was unable to believe it, a tranquil and calm voice sounded.

"Die."

Guo Nu only felt a tremble coming from his soul. Soon after, his consciousness had become fuzzy. During the final moment of his life, he only saw those ice-cold eyes.

Chapter 44 – So It's You

Guo Nu's corpse fell from the sky and onto the street. The whole street was quiet without a bit of nouse. Only the sound of the storm whistling could be heard.

On the side of the street, Lin Lin and Sisi were standing together.

"Miss, miss." Sisi softly pulled Lin Lin's sleeve. "Stop grieving. Hanshu died. We can find of a way to avenge him in the future." Seeing Lin Lin's appearance, Sisi was very pained.

Lin Lin took a glance at Sisi and merely shook her head without saying a word.

"Young lady, is it possible for you to take out your Transmission Spiritual Pearl?" Qin Yu's voice sounded beside Lin Lin. Lin Lin raised her head and looked at Qin Yu who stood in front of her. She didn't bother thinking too much and took out her Transmission Spiritual Pearl.

Qin Yu received her Transmission Spiritual Pearl and imprinted his own Immortal Awareness within it.

"You too imprint your Immortal Awareness in my Transmission Spiritual Pearl." Qin Yu handed over his own Transmission Spiritual Pearl. Lin Lin faintly nodded and also imprinted her Immortal Awareness in Qin Yu's Transmission Spiritual Pearl.

[TL: need a rephrasing of what Qin Yu said. He didn't ask her, he kinda said it matter of factly.]

When Qin Yu was about to take back his Transmission Spiritual Pearl, Lin Lin instead pulled back her hand.

"Mister, are you really Hanshu's master? Please tell me, what is your name?" Lin Lin still had a slight delusion in her heart.

"Qin Yu."

After saying those words, Qin Yu took his Transmission Spiritual Pearl from Lin Lin's hands.

Lin Lin smiled desolately. "Sure enough, so that's why he didn't contact me for all these years. I was also unable to find any news regarding him in the Maple Moon Star. So, actually, it turns out that he really had an untimely death."

After the battle in the Maple Moon Star.

The amount of level eight and level nine Golden Immortals that died reached a terrifying amount. The three great clans of the Maple Moon Star took the same action without prior consultation and eliminated all information regarding that battle. Even Qin Yu and Liu Hanshu's accomplishments were eliminated.

"Young lady. If you were to encounter any problem in the future, you only need to send me a transmission. As long as I can accomplish it, I would certainly settle it for you." Said Qin Yu toward this Lin Lin. After saying those words, he immediately started to walk toward the other direction of the street.

From start to finish, Qin Yu had never asked the name of this green clothed girl.

He had no need to ask.

Qin Yu only needed to know that this girl was the most beloved girl of his disciple. The reason why he promised Lin Lin that earlier was also because of the guilt he felt for his disciple.

Guo Nu's corpse laid on the street. At this moment, another middle aged man with the same crimson red hair and a pale, grave and stern expression appeared on the street. He was half kneeling beside Guo Nu's corpse and closely hugging his corpse.

"Nu. Why didn't you wait a little bit longer?!"

The facial muscles of this middle aged man who was dressed the same as Guo Nu was trembling. "I was very worried, very scared the whole time that, with your temperament, you'll get into an accident."

The red haired middle aged man was holding a Transmission Spiritual Pearl in his hand.

The Transmission Spiritual Pearl had a message within it. "Master, I found the lover that I like. I was aware of it at the first sight that I fell in love with her. She would definitely become mine. Master, please wait. I will bring her to see you."

This was the message Guo Nu transmitted to his master after walking into the restaurant and seeing Lin Lin.

His master was the super expert of the Blood Devil Path — Devil Emperor Xue Yi.

[TL: Xue Yi means bloody garments. Not sure if this is his nickname or actual name.]

Devil Emperor Xue Yi was on the Blue Flame Star earlier. He had also came to the Indigo Bay Star Field this time around because of the Cosmic Energies gathering upon the Hidden Emperor Star. When the Devil Emperor Xue Yi received the transmission from his disciple, he already had a bad premonition.

As a reason, he immediately went through the Interstellar Conveying Array of the Blue Flame Star and arrived on the Hidden Emperor Star.

However, the amount of people who was going through the Interstellar Conveying Arrays of the Blue Flame Star was numerous and in this period of time there was numerous super experts on the Blue Flame Star. Devil Emperor Xue Yi also didn't dare to kill people in broad daylight to take their space.

Thus, he was only able to stand in line and wait for his time to take the Interstellar Conveying Array.

However, when he arrived, his disciple, Guo Nu, had already died.

Guo Nu.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi's most loved disciple. He had almost the same kind of childhood as Devil Emperor Xue Yi. He was abandoned as a child and lived amongst beasts. He had grew fond of killing and believed that the strong is right. The laws of the jungle had already deeply penetrated his brain.

The Devil Emperor Xue Yi was also abandoned as a child, although after he cultivated successfully his father managed to find him. However, the Devil Emperor Xue Yi still continued in his own ways. He grew deeply fond of Guo Nu the moment he saw him and took him, at the spot, as his youngest disciple.

"Regardless of whoever it is that killed you, even if it's Emperor Yu, Mystic Emperor and them, I will still be sure to kill them to avenge you." Said the Devil Emperor Xue Yi resolutely in front of his disciple's corpse.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi had the same kind of temperament as Guo Nu.

Whatever he said, he must accomplish unless he dies!

Devil Emperor Xue Yi's gaze swept across the street. Immediately, it locked on the master and servant Lin Lin and Sisi to the distant. At this moment, Sisi was still comforting Lin Lin.

"Who killed Guo Nu, speak."

Seeing the red haired middle aged man that suddenly appeared in front of them, both Lin Lin and Sisi were greatly shocked.

This man had the same attire as Guo Nu. He had the same eyes and pale complexion. He also had a battle blade on his waist and the same long red hair. The only difference was that one was a youngster whereas the other was a middle aged man.

"Not going to speak? Die."

Devil Emperor Xue Yi's expression did not change in the slightest.

"It's I who killed him." A faint voice stopped Devil Emperor Xue Yi's movement.

Qin Yu walked over from the other end of the street unhurried yet quickly. Earlier, his Immortal Awareness had noticed a frightening aura appearing and immediately knew something's wrong. After seeing that man half kneeling in front of Guo Nu's corpse, he was able to determine what's going on.

Originally, Qin Yu didn't plan to show himself. However, this matter bears upon the life and death of Lin Lin. Thus, he must show himself.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi looked at Qin Yu coldly. "It's you who killed my disciple, Nu?" Devil Emperor Xue Yi started to emit his aura that was dense like essence. It came pressing down toward Qin Yu.

"Right." Qin Yu nodded.

Against such a terrifying aura, Qin Yu didn't retreat in the slightest.

Ever since Qin Yu reached the Black Hole Realm, the aura from the other side of the Black Hole Channel had assimilated with his awareness and Qin Yu had completely transformed.

Aura Oppression?

Perhaps Qin Yu's strength was fall from his opponent. However, it was impossible for him to be afraid and surrender.

"Are you the woman that my disciple took a fancy upon?" Devil Emperor Xue Yi changed his gaze toward Lin Lin. "There's only a quick-witted lass like you here who is able to match my disciple."

"Yes." Lin Lin was not even slightly afraid when confronted with the Devil Emperor Xue Yi. "Your disciple did took a fancy upon me. However, I don't like him. Senior, could it be that the way you handle matters is that forceful?"

"Forceful?" Devil Emperor Xue Yi sneered. "I am stronger than you, you cannot disobey me. If you do, then you'll die."

Devil Emperor Xue Yi had a think killing intent in his eyes.

"You are the woman that my disciple took a fancy upon. Now that he died, you prepare yourself to go down there and accompany him. You should be honored that you'll be able to be buried with my disciple." After saying that, the Devil Emperor Xue Yi waved his hand.

"Kaching."

The sound of steel collison sounded.

Qin Yu stood in front of Lin Lin. He had a short sword in his hand. At this moment, Qin Yu was afraid of showing that the short sword in his hand was the Divine Sword, Sky Piercer. He used his Divine Armor, Black Frozen Snow, and covered his skin as he prepared to take on the attack.

"Quickly, leave. I am not able to block him for much longer." Said Qin Yu hurriedly transmitted.

QIn Yu was able to tell that this Devil Emperor Xue Yi's strength surpassed the strength of the Immortal Emperor Qian Qi of the Maple Moon Star by far. Even when compared with the White Haired Blood Devil, Xue Yileng, this man was not much weaker.

"Mister, this man is too strong. You need not fight with your life for us. I had already transmitted a message to my senior martial brother and them. My senior martial brother and martial uncle was soon to arrive."

Lin Lin transmitted back..

"Stop spouting nonsense, leave quickly." Qin Yu was very angry. Instead of fleeing with the opportunity, this green clothed girl continued to stand here and tried to persuade him.

"Pretty strong, that short sword of yours should be a Divine Weapon, right? You actually managed to cut through my Top Quality Level Arm Protector and injured my arm." At this moment, the Devil Emperor Xue Yi started laughing.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi licked the blood coming from his wound. He had a bloodthirsty expression on his face.

"Go! Now!"

Qin Yu forcefully pushed Lin Lin and Sisi. However, even though they were pushed several meters away, they still did not run.

"You're not even at the Immortal Emperor level yet have a Divine Weapon. Seems like your sect was certainly extraordinary... if you were to have met other people, then perhaps they might have misgivings. Unfortunately, I will not be lenient toward you."

As Devil Emperor Xue Yi said those words, he pulled out his battle blade from his waist.

However, at this moment, Qin Yu was instead concerned about Lin Lin and Sisi.

"If Hanshu were to know that I cannot even protect the person that he loved, then how could I have the face to continue living?" Qin Yu could not care anymore about his secrets being exposed and charged toward Lin Lin and Sisi.

"Stop resisting in vain, the area within a ten miles circumference of here all belonged to my 'Domain.' In here, it is impossible for those two little girls who aren't even Golden Immortal to run away." Devil Emperor Xue Yi's voice sounded in Qin Yu's mind.

Qin Yu, however, grabbed Lin Lin and Sisi.

"Don't resist."

Without considering Lin Lin and Sisi's confused expressions, Qin Yu took the two directly into his Qingyu Immortal Mansion. In order to send someone into the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, it required the other party to not resist.

"Hooh, seems like your master was pretty fond of you. Did you sent those two into your Immortal Mansion? Immortal Mansions that could be carried around casually, each and every one of them are created through painstaking effort."

Devil Emperor Xue Yi held his blade with one hand. His gaze gradually turned colder. "An Immortal Mansion that you can carry around with, the Divine grade short sword in your hand, your master was certainly awfully fond of you. Unfortunately... no matter who your master is, even if he is a god, I will still kill you."

A blood light soared into the sky.

"So fast!" Qin Yu merely relied on his Immortal Awareness to find the fuzzy silhouette. With rapid speed, he firmly thrusted his Divine Weapon Sky Piercer over.

The sound of weapons clashing sounded.

At the same time, a crimson red blade aura penetrated through Qin Yu's body. Fortunately, because the Divine Weapon Sky Piercer had obstructed that blade, the crimson blade aura merely slantly thrust through Qin Yu's chest.

A black ray of light flashed through Qin Yu's body and the crimson blade aura were dissipated.

At the critical moment earlier, Qin Yu used his Divine Armor, Black Frozen Snow.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" ...

Several thousands of blade strikes came continuously.

One blade strike following another.

Qin Yu finally became aware of what speed was. Perhaps the White Haired Blood Demon, Xue Yileng's strength was stronger than this Devil Emperor Xue Yi. However, his attack speed fell short when compared with Devil Emperor Xue Yi.

Relying on his sensitive Immortal Awareness, Qin Yu was vaguely able to tell the locations of every blade strike. He used his Divine Weapon Sky Piercer to continuously block them. Qin Yu felt as if he was walking on a tightrope. If he wasn't careful, he'll be immediately pierced through by that battle blade.

Qin Yu was unable to see the blade with his eyes. The only thing he was able to see was the deep red eyes of the Devil Emperor Xue Yi; the eyes that looked like those of a wild beast.

"Kaching!"

After blocking several thousand blade strikes, Qin Yu finally let one past.

"You have a Divine Armor?"

Devil Emperor Xue Yi's face was filled with shock. Never had he expected that the master of the man standing in front of him would be so fond of him that he would even give a the utmost precious Divine Armor to him.

At this moment, Devil Emperor Xue Yi's battle sword had stabbed into Qin Yu's abdomen. However, it only managed to penetrate a bit before being obstructed by the Divine Armor.

"However, you still have to die."

Devil Emperor Xue Yi's voice sounded in Qin Yu's mind. "Even the Divine Armor have to depend on who's wearing it. Toward you, I only need to have the vibration strength to slice through mountains and beat oxens. Although there would only be ten percent of the power left after going through the Divine Armor, it's more than enough against you."

The Devil Awareness transmission was only an instant.

A terrifying aura stormed into the exterior of the Divine Armor. Soon after, less than a tenth of the aura appeared within Qin Yu's insides. It directly attacked toward Qin Yu's dantian.

Wherever it passed, the organs within Qin Yu's body were destroyed. However, they were immediately restored.

"Kaching."

At the moment when his opponent pierced through Qin Yu's abdomen, Qin Yu's Divine Sword, Sky Piercer, also pierced through Devil Emperor Xue Yi's abdomen. "To not reciprocate is against etiquette." Qin Yu's smile was very grim. However, his expression soon returned to normal. "You also had a Divine Armor?"

Qin Yu only managed to thrust his sword in an inch before it stopped.

He only saw a crimson colored armor appearing on the Devil Emperor Xue Yi's body.

Divine Armors are extremely rare. Even White Haired Blood Devil, Xue Yileng, does not possess one. Thus, one could imagine how precious a Divine Armor was. However, this Devil Emperor Xue Yi possessed one.

"If I didn't have my Divine Armor, how could my left hand not block your Divine Sword?" Xue Yi had a grim smile on his face.

A burst of aura continued to penetrate into Qin Yu's body.

Xue Yi's strength was already very strong. Even if he was only relying on the ten percent vibrating strength that managed to pass through the Divine Armor, its power was still nevertheless enormous.

However, the moment when the burst of aura passed through Qin Yu's body and arrived in his Dantian, Qin Yu didn't even bother to use his Black Hole's Power to resist. That's because...

The Black Hole in his Dantian suddenly started to move.

"Huff"

The aura and energy that was planning to attack Qin Yu was directly absorbed by his Black Hole. There was not even a bit remaining.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi's expression changed.

"Die!"

Xue Yi shouted angrily. A terrifying power came from within the Devil Emperor's body and burst out as it stormed onto Qin Yu. Qin Yu's body was immediately sent flying.

While it might appear slow from words, Qin Yu and Devil Emperor Xue Yi actually only collided with their bodies. They each thrust their blade and sword into each other. After which the Devil Emperor's internal aura exploded and then they immediately separated.

"Strange, your soul was unexpectedly not jolted into pieces. Your soul had managed to reach the Immortal Emperor Realm?" Devil Emperor Xue Yi looked at Qin Yu in astonishment.

Qin Yu's complexion however changed.

The last move from the Devil Emperor Xue Yi earlier — he exploded all the energy within his body. Because Qin Yu was too close to him, the explosive energy had spread into his skull and jolted the soul in his brain. If he didn't had the protection of the Meteoric Tear, that move was more than enough to crumble his soul.

Qin Yu truly had a large gap with the Devil Emperor Xue Yi.

"Qin Yu." A familiar voice sounded.

Jun Luoyu landed beside Qin Yu. He then looked toward the Devil Emperor Xue Yi and his expression changed greatly. "So it's you."

That Devil Emperor Xue Yi saw Jun Luoyu and his expression also turned gloomy. He was staring deeply at Jun Luoyu.

Chapter 45 – Undying

"Qin Yu, what happened to you?" Jun Luoyu suddenly noticed that Qin Yu had a very pale complexion.

"I'm fine." Qin Yu shook his head. However, his mind was currently in a deep shock. "Seems like this Black Hole in my dantian is still not stable enough. Especially with the energy of that attack, trying to swallow it at once and refine it is still a bit troublesome."

The Black Hole Channel within Qin Yu's dantian trembled for a long time due to what happened earlier. The Golden Ring of Light also trembled. Finally, Qin Yu managed to persevere.

"That was a bit hard to believe. This guy in front of us is at least a level six Devil Emperor. Although the Divine Armor had lessened his power and left it with only ten percent of the attack power, it was nevertheless as strong as a full powered strike from a level two Devil Emperor."

Qin Yu bursted into a post-event fear. Although the Black Hole in his dantian was able to absorb the attack energy, however, if the attack energy were too powerful, it was still possible to cause the Black Hole to collapse.

"Jun Luoyu, never had I expected to encounter you here." Devil Emperor Xue Yi's face grew even more pale. The gaze he used to stare at Jun Luoyu was ice-cold. "You two will certainly die today."

"Xue Yi!"

Jun Luoyu was tightly biting down his teeth. His eyes seemed to be about to burst open.

"Boom!" Accompanied by a loud thunder, a bolt of lightning came striking down from the black cloud filled sky. However, the couple people present did not care about the lightning at all. Following the lightning, heavy rain came pouring down.

The thunder continued to rumble, the heavy rain continued to fall.

"Xue Yi, it's you, it's you who killed A'Jiao. It's you who killed her. Ever since the day A'Jiao died, I had swore to the heavens that the only goal of my life is to kill you, to kill you and make that Blood Devil Emperor regret."

[TL: A'Jiao is pronounced like Ah Jiao. Jiao is the name, Ah is just there as a prefix to make like the japanese suffix -chan.]

Jun Luoyu was shaking.

"Jun Luoyu. Listen carefully, A'Jiao is my woman." Devil Emperor Xue Yi said cold and matter-of-factly. "Since she is my woman, I would certainly not permit her to like someone else. I would rather kill my own woman than to yield her to someone else."

Devil Emperor Xue Yi looked at Jun Luoyu coldly. "Jun Luoyu, before A'Jiao died, she begged me to let you live. That time, I had agreed to her wish. However this time, I would not let you off again. You must die." After saying that, Devil Emperor Xue Yi looked toward Qin Yu.

"Jun Luoyu called you Qin Yu?" Devil Emperor Xue Yi's expression was very sinister. "Your master was very awfully good to you, not only did he gave you a Divine Weapon, he even gave you a Divine Armor and an Immortal Mansion. However, Qin Yu, you will also die today even if you have a Divine Armor."

Devil Emperor Xue Yi's body gradually started to emit a crimson colored light.

"Puff!" A human figure came out of Devil Emperor Xue Yi's body like a mirage.

Body Clone Technique!

Qin Yu clearly saw this Devil Emperor Xue Yi turning into two people from one. Devil Emperor Xue Yi once again smiled toward Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu. The two people surprisingly turned into four people.

The four people surrounded Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu from four different directions.

The four people had the exact same appearance. Their only difference was the weapons they held.

"Body Clone Technique?" Qin Yu's expression slightly changed. He had heard about this kind of secret technique but had never trained in it. However, Jun Luoyu had heard that this kind of technique likely belonged to useless techniques category.

Jun Luoyu's voice sounded in Qin Yu's mind. "Qin Yu, only one of the four is the action body. The actual body is the most powerful. The strength of the clones are hard to say. In ordinary situations, they only have a tenth of the original body's strength. However... " Jun Luoyu was able to clearly feel that the clones were powerful.

Qin Yu, with his sensitive Immortal Awareness, had also realized that the three weaker Xue Yi clones of the four also had the strength of level five Devil Emperor. How is that a tenth of the main body?

"Luoyu, I have the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, you can hide in there." Qin Yu said via his voice transfer. Qin Yu was still very confident in himself, that's because not only does he had the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, he also had most safe Jiang Lan's Realm.

The Jiang Lan's Realm that was refined by Uncle Lan naturally had a much stronger defense than the Qingyu Immortal Mansion refined by Immortal Emperor Ni Yang.

"No need." Jun Luoyu's expression did not change slightly. "Xue Yi snatched away my wife and killed her. I dreamed of killing him all the time. With him in front of me, I would absolutely not flee."

Qin Yu was slightly startled.

Both Jun Luoyu and Xue Yi said that A'Jiao was their wife, so who's wife was she exactly?

One main body and three clones, four Xue Yi surrounded Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu. To Xue Yi, Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu were people that he must kill. His sole beloved disciple, his only loved wife, it's all because of these two men that they died.

"Jun Luoyu, for seducing my wife, I sentence you to death."

"Qin Yu, for killing my beloved disciple, I sentence you to death."

These two words came from two different clones. With the same long red hair elegantly drifting in the wind, the four Devil Emperor Xue Yis all had a grim and bloodthirsty smile on their faces.

"Although I really disliked my father, I would use his ultimate move this time around!" Said the Devil Emperor Xue Yi with a deep and low voice. At nearly the same time, the four Xue Yis shouted. "Borderless Blood Ocean!"

Bloody rays rushed towards the heavens!

"Wawa..." The buildings within a hundred miles from where they stood suddenly turned into fine powder. The whole ground had subsided a whole layer.

Space distortion!

Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu were inside the distorted space.

Crimson colored light became the only color of the area several hundred meters around them. The surging Blood Devil Path energy had completely wrapped around Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu.

"Boom!"

Within the crimson colored area, a frightening energy was continuously exploding as it fluctuated in this distorted space. Devil Emperor Xue Yi had formed a large spell formation with his clones, confining the energy from the explosion inside the distorted space.

The energy of the explosions continued to refract in this distorted space.

"Borderless Blood Ocean is not only a crowd attack, it's also the strongest individual attack." In a mere seconds, the four Xue Yis combined into one. Xue Yi's face was filled with confidence. "If the distorted space is large, then it's a crowd attack. If the distorted space is small, then it's an individual attack. Even I am not able to take on it."

The distorted space returned to normal.

"Not dead?" Xue Yi looked at the three people in astonishment.

Yes, it's three people.

Two Qin Yus and a Jun Luoyu. One Qin Yu stood in the front whereas the other stood in the back protecting Jun Luoyu completely.

"How can this be, aren't you just a hedonistic son of rich parents who relied on your treasures? You haven't even reached the Emperor level, how could you possibly still be alive right now?" Said Xue Yi, unable to accept the fact. His complexion grew even more pale.

Xue Yi had been looking down upon Qin Yu.

A man without strength and only relies on all his numerous treasures, how could he not look down upon him? However, the scene in front of him?

"Even if you have Divine Armor, the power of Borderless Blood Ocean's frightening explosions that went through your Divine Armor would be more than enough to kill you. There were two of you earlier, how did it become three?" Xue Yi felt as if his world had been toppled over.

"You can clone yourself, how could I not?" One of the Qin Yus laughed grimly.

"Luoyu, you rest yourself. I will take care of him." The other Qin Yu said to Jun Luoyu.

The two Qin Yus turned into two lightning bolts and charged at Devil Emperor Xue Yi.

Lightning!

Mirage!

When Qin Yu fights, he does not rely on his attack power. Instead, he relies on his speed and the sharpness of his weapon.

"Clown." Devil Emperor Xue Yi also changed into two people; one main body and one clone.

The two Xue Yis and the two Qin Yus started to fight frantically. The two pairs fought from the ground all the way into the air and then from the air to a tall building far away.

Everywhere the two passed, the buildings were collapsing and exploding unceasingly.

The two pairs separated.

The two Devil Emperor Xue Yis looked at the two Qin Yus with an astonished expression.

"How could this be? Your clone also possessed a Divine Armor?" Devil Emperor Xue Yi was once again greatly shocked. "It's one thing for your original body's defense to be that strong, but how could your clone's?"

The two Qin Yus both smiled coldly and matter-of-factly.

"I have a many Divine Armors, is that unacceptable?" One of the Qin Yu said.

Clone?

Qin Yu don't even know of the Body Clone Technique, how could there be a Clone? He merely changed the appearance of the Sword Immortal Puppet to his own. Even when Qin Yu wore his Divine Armor, his body's sturdiness was still inferior to that of the Sword Immortal Puppet.

Even the strongest attack of the strongest individual attacker, Green Blooded Sword Immortal, Zhi Bai only left a single wound on the Sword Immortal Puppet. Devil Emperor Xue Yi wanted to pierce through Sword Immortal Puppet's body? Impossible.

"Two Divine Armors?" Devil Emperor Xue Yi was stunned.

Immediately after, Devil Emperor Xue Yi laughed ruthlessly. "Never had I expected that there was such an ordinary person in the Immortal, Devil, and Demon Realm. Although you possessed two Divine Armors, but regardless of who your master is, you still have to die."

Boiling.

The blood in Devil Emperor Xue Yi's body started to boil.

Like two red rays, the two Devil Emperor Xue Yis rushed to the front of the two Qin Yus. His speed was so fast that Qin Yu almost didn't manage to react in time.

"Bang!"

That red battle blade ruthlessly struck on Qin Yu's body. A terrifying aura, after passing through the Divine Armor and leaving behind only a tenth of its power, entered Qin Yu's body and started to rip apart the muscles within Qin Yu's body.

"Trying to kill me? You're still lacking greatly."

Qin Yu does his utmost to control his life elemental energy and rapidly restored his muscles. The penetrating aura had only penetrated a bit but was already restored by Qin Yu.

At the same time, the Black Hole energy within his body was also continuously whittling away this penetrating aura. Finally, for the remaining trace of the aura, Qin Yu effortlessly used his Black Hole to directly swallow and refine it. Like this, after passing through the Divine Armor, the muscles, and the Black Hole's power, the remaining bit of aura was not even slightly problematic for the Black Hole to swallow.

Using his life elemental energy to restore his body unceasingly.

Qin Yu literally possessed an undying body!

"Big brother Luoyu, are you okay?" Jiang Yan appeared next to Jun Luoyu.

Jun Luoyu was watching Qin Yu and Xue Yi's battle.

"I'm fine, it's just that Qin Yu is still fighting with Devil Emperor Xue Yi." Said Jun Luoyu as he shook his head. He had an anxious expression. "My strength was too weak, if only I was a bit stronger than I would've been able to help."

Jiang Yan looked at the scene in front of her with astonishment.

"Devil Emperor Xue Yi, you're saying that man is Devil Emperor Xue Yi? How did Qin Yu battle the Devil Emperor Xue Yi to such a circumstance? Impossible." Jiang Yan had her mouth wide open.

"I don't know either; Qin Yu had a lot of secrets. Earlier, had Qin Yu not used his clone and protected me from front and behind, I'd reckon that I would've been dead already." Jun Luoyu shook his head and sighed. "When I was approaching my death earlier, I suddenly came to a realization. Seeing one's enemy and then growing infuriated and frantic is of no use. I should continued to train. Train till my strength surpassed his and then take my revenge."

"You piece of blockhead, you finally understood." Jiang Yan had a sigh of relief...

Right at this moment —

"Bang!"

One of the Qin Yus was fiercely smashed onto the ground. He was smashed all the way into the underground. The surface of the streets were filled with shattered layers.

"Qin Yu." Jun Luoyu's expression changed greatly. He helplessly saw the other Qin Yu having his head chopped to pieces. His body was also hacked and then smashed into the ground.

The two Qin Yu were smashed into the ground in succession. One of them even had his brain chopped to pieces.

"Let me see if can still live." Devil Emperor Xue Yi was panting.

"Xue Yi." Jun Luyou's eyes were blood red. "You killed Qin Yu?"

Devil Emperor Xue Yi looked at Jun Luoyu and started to laugh frantically. "Haha, I killed him. Yes, I killed him! It really was hard to kill this guy. I still don't get it; isn't he only wearing a Divine Armor? How could he be this hard to kill? However... he still finally died."

Devil Emperor Xue Yi was greatly exhausted from the battle.

Qin Yu and his clone appeared to be unkillable. While Divine Armors could offer protection, but with vibration energy, a layer of attack power would still pass through the body.

A layer of attack power forcing through the body, in Devil Emperor Xue Yi's views, if Qin Yu was a level four or five Immortal Emperor level expert, then he might be able to take it. However, from Qin Yu's aura, he should not even be at the Emperor level.

He continued to be confused. Rows of auras entered Qin Yu's body, so why are they not providing any results?

Devil Emperor Xue Yi secretly had a sigh of relief in his heart.

This undying Qin Yu was finally dead.

"He who only relied on his sect's elders, no matter how many treasures he possessed, his own strength was still only that of a useless rubbish." Devil Emperor Xue Yi said cold and matter-of-factly. "As for Jun Luoyu you, you can follow Qin Yu and die."

"Bang!" "Bang!" A crisp sound echoed. Two human figures were shot out from the ground and then, like lightning, they landed. It was the two Qin Yus. Afterward, one Qin Yu assimilated into another Qin Yu's body.

"Did you really kill me?" Qin Yu looked at Devil Emperor Xue Yi and laughed.

"How could this be?" Devil Emperor Xue Yi opened his eyes wide. "I clearly cracked your skull and even felt that your soul had escaped into your dantian. However, my energy ought to have managed to attack your soul. How could you still be alive?"

While wearing the Divine Armor, the body would be surrounded by numerous auras. Amongst them, the defense of the head area was the weakest.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi hacked Qin Yu's head to pieces. Qin Yu's soul had already fled into his dantian the moment before. Xue Yi's energy frantically poured into Qin Yu's body. He wanted to destroy Qin Yu's soul. Afterall, the soul's defense was very weak.

But...

Qin Yu was still fine.

"You can't kill me。" Qin Yu smiled slightly, and his body once again split in two. Two Qin Yus once again appeared in front of Devil Emperor Xue Yi. Earlier, the reason that the Sword Immortal Puppet was smashed into the ground was because the energy of the Top Grade Elemental Spirit Stones was completely consumed.

Qin Yu exhaled a long breath from the bottom of his heart. "Even with the Divine Armor, and my life elemental energy that continues to repair my body, I was only able to barely defend against a level six Devil Emperor's attack. If it's stronger, my Black Hole will probably collapse trying to withstand that much attack power."

In today's battle, he finally realized his baseline.

"We haven't finished our battle yet, let's continue." Qin Yu stared at Devil Emperor Xue Yi.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi's pupils shrank.

He couldn't even kill a person who wasn't at the Emperor level yet. How can he not be shocked and uneasy?.

"Divine Armor, even his clone has one. Two Divine Armors, just who is his master? Does the Immortal, Devil, and Demon Realm have such a person?"

"Even if he possessed a Divine Armor, my one layer of attack power still continuously entered his body. I'd reckon that even a level three Devil Emperor cannot withstand it, how can his body resist it?"

The Devil Emperor Xue Yi's heart was full of doubts. Facing Qin Yu's challenge once again, his only feeling was...a headache.

Chapter 46 – Arriving on the Stage in Succession

"Rumble!" The sound of thunder grew increasingly louder; the rain continued to pour unceasingly from the heavens. However, when that rain came near people of Qin Yu, Devil Emperor Xie Yi, and Jun Luoyu and them, it unexpectedly made way for them. It was as if even the rain was afraid of them.

Facing Qin Yu's second challenge, Devil Emperor Xie Yi had a strange expression on his face.

"Qin Yu, you're challenging me?" Devil Emperor Xie Yu didn't have the headache anymore. Instead, he had a very a deep pondering smile as he looked at Qin Yu.

The two Qin Yu's coldly looked back at Devil Emperor Xie Yi.

"What's with Devil Emperor Xie Yi?" Qin Yu had a hint of suspicion in his heart. According to what he predicted, the Devil Emperor Xie Yi should have a headache right now.

With red hair that was as eye-catching as blood, Devil Emperor Xie Yi suddenly started to laugh out loud. He then stared at Qin Yu and said. "My father had one told me to not attack a little girl. This little girl possessed two extraordinary Divine Artifacts. Although her strength was only at the level of level one Immortal Emperor, but even if it was I, I would still be unable to harm her in the slightest."

Jun Luoyu and Qin Yu were both slightly startled. They couldn't help but look toward Jiang Yan.

The girl that this Devil Emperor Xue Yi spoke of was clearly Jiang Yan.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi continued. "Others might think that the master of this Jiang Yan was so very extraordinary. By merely bestowing two Divine Artifacts, she was able to make a level one Immortal Emperor to become unharmable by level six and seven Immortal Emperors. Perhaps a lot of people would envy this little girl. However!"

A slight trace of disdain appeared on the corner of Devil Emperor Xue Yi's mouth. "In my eyes, this little girl was merely a lucky rubbish that had treasures in vain!"

"Possessing two Divine Artifacts, her defense might be very strong. I am also unable to harm her one bit if she stood in front of me. However, what about her attack power? Level one Immortal Emperor, even if she possessed Divine Artifacts, her attack power would still not be that strong. I completely look down upon people like her who could not even threaten me in the slightest."

Devil Emperor Xue Yi looked toward Qin Yu. "As for now, amongst this type of people that I looked down on, other than that lucky little girl, there's also you, Qin Yu!"

Qin Yu was slightly startled..

"You possessed a Divine Armor and even your clone possessed a Divine Armor. Your weapon was also a Divine Artifact. Furthermore... my attack energy entered your body yet was surprisingly unable to kill you. I reckon that you also possess some kind of treasure within your body that can protect your Nascent Soul."

Devil Emperor Xue Yi looked at Qin Yu with a disdainful gaze. "Having battled with you for this long, I also clearly realized. You are the same as that lucky little girl. Your defense is exceptional. However, your attack power is very feeble. Even if you had a Divine Weapon, you're still unable to harm me."

"I... could totally ignore your existence."

Devil Emperor Xue Yi faintly lifted his chin. He looked at Qin Yu with a ice-cold gaze. "Don't you refuse that, if you aren't able to accept it, then you could come and attack me. I would stand here and not resist. If you are able to kill me, then I would accept my death with no complaint."

Qin Yu grew silent.

"Am I really able to kill him?"

Qin Yu asked himself in his heart. His body possessed the protection of the Divine Armor and the Life Elemental Energy. Within his body, he had the Black Hole with the extremely strong defensive power and a Nascent Soul that's not weak at all. These had allowed him to survive under the attacks of the Devil Emperor Xue Yi.

But, what about attack power?

Although he had the Divine Sword Sky Piercer, if he used his own strength to power the Divine Weapon, this Devil Emperor Xue Yi, even if he only had a Top Quality Devil Armor, but with his level six Immortal Emperor's strength infused into the Devil Armor, he was absolutely able to defend against his attack.

It was so much that if his opponent were to use a 'Domain,' Qin Yu would be completely unable to approach him.

"Not going to speak?" Devil Emperor Xue Yi slightly smiled. He then looked toward Jun Luoyu.

"Jun Luoyu, your good brother Qin Yu's strength was too weak. Even if he possessed many treasures, it's still impossible for him to harm me in the slightest. If I want to kill you, with his strength, it's completely impossible for him to obstruct me. You... prepare to die."

Devil Emperor Xue Yi held his Divine Battle Blade with one hand.

Suddenly —

"Red haired bastard!" An angry shout sounded.

[TL: 鬼 means ghost. However, it could also mean bastard under certain circumstances; usually as an insult.]

"Red haired bastard, did you not have ears? This lady here is calling you. Yes, you. Don't look all over the place, I'm talking about you. You with the wood chopping knife." The continuous shouting had caused Devil Emperor Xue Yi to realize that the person that girl was calling was him.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi's gaze turned cold. He looked at Jiang Yan.

"Red haired bastard? Wood chopping knife?" Killing intent were emitting from Devil Emperor Xue Yi.

Jiang Yan looked at Devil Emperor Xue Yi angrily. "You red haired bastard, what did you say earlier? You said Qin Yu a rubbish who possessed treasures in vain? You said that he was the same as that lucky girl?"

"Right." Devil Emperor Xue Yi nodded. "He is rubbish. That girl is also rubbish. Their own power was so weak, they depended on the treasures bestowed to them by their sect's loving elders to save their tiny lives. Yet, their attack power was so very weak. I have always looked down upon this type or people."

"Say it one more time." Jiang Yan's eyes seemed to be burning with rage.

"Little girl, are you also seeking your death?" Devil Emperor Xue Yi was confused.

Jiang Yan bit her teeth. With immense anger, word by word, she said. "I am that lucky little girl that you spoke of!"

"You..." Devil Emperor Xue Yi was stunned.

"Right, didn't you say that I'm very weak? Didn't you said that I'm just a rubbish that had treasures in vain? You bastard." Jiang Yan's figure suddenly changed. One turned into two, two into four and four into eight. One Jiang Yan suddenly turned into eight Jiang Yans in a flash.

The eight Jiang Yans surrounded Devil Emperor Xue Yi.

"Something's amiss." Devil Emperor Xue Yi's expression changed. "Where's your original body? How come your eight clones all have the same strength?"

"Find it if you can." Jiang Yan's angry voice resounded. Following, a red silk ribbon like weapon were shot out from the eight Jiang Yans' hands. In a split second, the area where the eight Jiang Yans surrounded were filled with this red ribbon weapon.

Qin Yu retrieved back his Sword Immortal Puppet and walked to the side of Jun Luoyu.

"Luoyu, what kind of secret technique was Yan'er using? How come she used Body Clone Technique yet all her eight clones have the strength of level one Immortal Emperor? Which one is the original body?" Qin Yu was really astonished. Jiang Yan's Body Clone Technique was a bit too frightening.

One turned into eight yet all eight Jiang Yans had the strength of the original body. Who could be able to tell which amongst the eight is the original body?

Jun Luoyu smiled and said. "Qin Yu, Divine Weapon Sky Shifter have eight positions inside it. That time, I had only borrowed Yan'er's Divine Weapon and was simply unable to display the full power of the Divine Weapon Sky Shifter. Currently, Yan'er was using the Divine Weapon Sky Shifter to turn into eight clones at once. As for her weapon, it's the Divine Weapon Heavenly Phantom Gauze."

Qin Yu came to an understanding.

"Rarely do Yan'er act out violently. However, when she does, she's very frightening. This Devil Emperor Xue Yi, even if he managed to survive, he would still have received a punishment." Said Jun Luoyu confidently. His expression showed that he was not even slightly worried about Jiang Yan losing.

Qin Yu was slightly relieved. He attentively looked toward the battle in front of him.

He saw that the position of the eight Jiang Yans were constantly changing as if they were flash shifting.

At the same time, the Heavenly Phantom Gauze covered the whole sky and earth as it attacked. No matter how strong that Devil Emperor Xue Yi was, he was still unable to cut through it. With the Heavenly Phantom Gauze's attack, a Devil Emperor was trapped within the area that it created.

"Let me see you looking down on me again. Didn't you say that I'm rubbish? Didn't you say that I'm a lucky little girl who luckily obtained treasures in vain?"Jiang Yan cursed as she attacked.

At this moment, Devil Emperor Xue Yi was suffering greatly.

With his Divine Armor and vigorous strength, it did not receive any major wounds. However, the Heavenly Phantom Gauze was both a defensive and offensive item. Its attack contained all kinds of illusionary techniques. With one attack came toward him, countless illusions appeared in endless successions.

Furthermore, no matter how much Devil Emperor Xue Yi tried, he was still unable to break through the Heavenly Phantom Gauze.

Endless illusions. The unbreakable Heavenly Phantom Gauze.

Just like that, Devil Emperor Xue Yi was trapped.

"Hooh, it started thundering."

With a movement of her body, the eight Jiang Yan's united into one. Immediately after, Jiang Yan arrived beside Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu. With her nose high up, she looked at them and said proudly. "Big brother Qin Yu, big brother Luoyu, what do you think about my power? I'm strong right?"

"Strong, strong." Said Qin Yu smilingly.

He was able to tell that when Jiang Yan's two Divine Artifacts worked together, not only could they help her rapidly escape from danger, they were also able to create large formations to attack. Even Devil Emperor Xue Yi who possessed a Divine Armor were left in such a sorry state. It was obvious how strong those two Divine Artifacts were.

Compared to them, Qin Yu's defense was totally inferior.

"Red haired bastard, do you admit defeat?" Said Jiang Yan as she stared at Devil Emperor Xue Yi.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi had only just escaped from the endless illusions and attacks. Facing Jiang Yan's question, Devil Emperor Xue Yi slightly admitted defeat. He sneered. "That Divine Weapon was actually able to create endless illusions; it's certainly extraordinary."

"Are you stating that my strength is not enough? Then let's fight again." Jiang Yan was about to fight again.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi couldn't help from feeling a headache.

When he was fighting Qin Yu, he was still able to have the upper hand and was even able to ravage Qin Yu. However, when confronting Jiang Yan, he, Devil Emperor Xue Yi, didn't even have the opportunity to fight back.

"Your strength was pretty good; at least your Body Clone Technique was the strongest that I've seen. To be able to reach the level of Body Clone Technique where your clones are as strong as the original body, I reckon that there is no other person in this whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm other than you. I am in awe, in awe." Devil Emperor Xue Yi reluctantly found a part that he admired and gave a slight complement.

Qin Yu snickered in his heart.

Body Clone Technique?

It was merely one of the Divine Weapon, Sky Shifter's secondary function.

"That's more like it." Jiang Yan was perfected contented.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi was completely clear about the situation on the stage.

"This lucky little girl, her strength was clearly inferior to mine. However she possessed Divine Artifacts and an extraordinary Body Clone Technique that were able to trap me. With her here, it is very hard for me to kill Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu." Devil Emperor Xue Yi was pondering in his mind.

"Qin Yu killed my loved disciple, Jun Luoyu seduced my wife, this two men must certainly be killed! From the looks of it, I could only mount a sneak attack against them."

Finally, Devil Emperor Xue Yi only came to such a conclusion.

Qin Yu was paying close attention to Devil Emperor Xue Yi the whole time.

"His temperament is similar to that Guo Nu. He would absolutely not give up. Perhaps this Devil Emperor Xue Yi would not care about his dignity and try to conduct sneak attacks. While I am not afraid of his sneak attacks, Luoyu doesn't have the protection of a Divine Armor."

At this moment, Jiang Yan was still boasting in front of Jun Luoyu and Qin Yu.

Being able to topple over the might of the Devil Emperor Xue Yi, Jiang Yan was very proud.

Suddenly —

"Boom!" With only a sound of collision being heard, two silhouettes knocked into two different directions. They broke apart a couple these two silhouettes started flying. They were Qin Yu and Devil Emperor Xue Yi.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi's expression was very ugly.

"Xue Yi, you're trying to make a sneak attack on us? I have already had my attention on you." Qin Yu touched his shoulder. Earlier, his shoulder had received an attack from Devil Emperor Xue Yi. Even with the protection of the Divine Armor, Qin Yu still received some injuries. In a flash, his Life Elemental Energy restored the injuries.

"Devil Emperor Xue Yi, you're after all a level six Devil Emperor, you actually went as far as trying to sneak attack us. You're truly brilliant." Jun Luoyu said angrily. He had never expected that the proud and arrogant Devil Emperor Xue Yi would actually mount a sneak attack.

Jiang Yan's expression also changed.

"Jun Luoyu, Qin Yu, consider yourselves lucky this time to have a lucky little girl beside you. Trash like you two could only hide behind the back of a woman." Sneered Devil Emperor Xue Yi. After he finished saying those words, he turned into a ray of light and flew toward the east.

However, this ray of light rebounded back with an even faster speed.

"Rumble!" Devil Emperor Xue Yi's body was smashed into the ground, cracking it.

In a flash, Devil Emperor Xue Yi flew out from under the ground.

"Xue Yi, you're a level six Devil Emperor yet you came to insult two juniors. Isn't that a bit too excessive? Didn't you consider yourself to be very strong? I, Wuming, came to exchange some blows with you." A clear voice sounded from skies atop the East Star City.

A golden ray was shot over from afar. Soon after, it arrived in front of Qin Yu, Jun Luoyu and Jiang Yan.

This was the second strongest expert of the Dragon Clan, Ao Wuming.

"Ao Wuming?" Devil Emperor Xue Yi's eyelids were twitching. His complexion grew even more pale. However, his gaze grew even more cold.

[TL: this dude gets paler by the second.]

[Editor Note: and everyone's gaze gets colder. If they ever find themselves glaring at someone for 49 days, they might get Icy Golden Eyes or something.(you know, from Journey to the west, huo yan jin jing, but it might just turn out to be xue yan jin jing)]

"Right, it is I." Ao Wuming was standing straight like a spear. His long golden hair were elegantly floating in the wind. The aura of the two were like aeons apart.

Who was Ao Wuming? He was someone that even level seven Devil Emperor Xue Yileng and level seven Immortal Emperor Zhi Bai cannot match even working together. This level six Devil Emperor Xue Yi, there was still a large distance between him and Xue Yileng. In front of Ao Wuming, he have absolutely no ability to resist.

"Xue Yi, there are two great experts in the Dragon Clan that you must be careful of. The Dragon Emperor was needless to mention. Even I, your father, am no match from him. As for the other Dragon Clan Prince, Ao Wuming; although he is merely a level seven Demon Emperor, but as a Five Clawed Golden Dragon, his true body's strength was no weaker than your father. Even though you possessed a Divine Armor; Ao Wuming possess the utmost strong and utmost firm Divine Spear, Absolute Piercer. In front of him, it's difficult to tell if you're capable of surviving."

His father's words appeared before his mind. Even the right hand of the Devil Emperor Xue Yi that gasped his battle blade had turned pale white.

[TL: damn, even dude's hand is turning pale...]

"Wuming, long time no see. You're willing to patronize and guide my son is his blessing." A clear and cold voice sounded from the skies of the East Star City. In a flash, a silhouette from afar had reached them.

Long jet-black hair was drifting in the wind. His face was so handsome that it's hard to determine his age. In addition, his body was draped with elegant white clothes. From his appearance, he looked like a noble and virtuous white clothed scholar.

"Father." Devil Emperor Xue Yi saw the man who had arrived. He only said 'father' and then immediately stood to the side.

The astonishing man who had arrived was Blood Emperor, Xue Tianya.

Chapter 47 – Granddaughter

"Xue Tianya." Ao Wuming saw the man who had just arrived and was unable to help himself from showing a smile. "Never had I expected that this Devil Emperor called Xue Yi is the son of the great Blood Devil Emperor. I remember... that you, Blood Devil Emperor, had a daughter. When did you have a son?"

Xue Tianya's appearance was like that of a refined scholar in his twenties. His clothing was incomparably white and spotless; there was not even a speck of dust.

"Son, daughter?" Xue Tianya took a glance at Xue Yi who stood next to him. Devil Emperor Xue Yi still had the same grim appearance. Even when facing his father, he was still that ice-cold.

"He is my son. As for my daughter... she was merely an adopted daughter." Said Xue Tianya indifferently.

"Adopted daughter, adopted daughter, humph!" A cold humph sound came from beside Ao Wuming.

Xue Tianya looked over. His expression slightly changed. However, he still retained that trace of smile. "Luoyu, you're also here."

Jun Luoyu only gave a humph and did not respond.

"Blood Devil Emperor, right?" Jiang Yan walked next to Jun Luoyu. She stared at Xue Tianya. "Blood Devil Emperor, you're also someone of high standing. At that time, your daughter was close with my big brother Luoyu. But why is it that at the end, you ended up giving your daughter to your son as his wife?"

"It's adopted daughter." Xue Tianya corrected.

Jiang Yan groaned. "I know she's your adopted daughter. But big sister A'Jiao and big brother Luoyu knew each other first. They also fell in love with each other first. How could you forcibly break them apart? You even ultimately allowed this Xue Yi to kill big sister A'Jiao."

"Little girl, although you had your granny as your backing, you must still know your manners when speaking with your elders. Understood?" Xue Tianya's voice was slightly imposing.

Back then, Jiang Yan's granny had informed the couple top experts of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm of Jiang Yan's appearance and aura. Xue Tianya was one of those top experts. Therefore, from the moment Xue Tianya saw Jiang Yan, he already knew that she was that lucky little girl. At the same time, he was able to sense how troublesome the matter was.

In the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, there existed few people that were able to cause Xue Tianya a headache.

The Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Clan was one. Hidden Emperor was barely enough to be considered as another. As for that mysterious granny behind Jiang Yan, she was another one.

"Xue Tianya."

Jun Luoyu spoke. His pair of eyes turned red. "You listen clearly. You do not have the qualifications to be A'Jiao's father. You also don't have the qualifications to talk about A'Jiao. In the future, I wish for you to never speak of A'Jiao again because I feel sick to my stomach when you do!"

"There is no father that would treat his daughter like that. There is no father that would be that ruthless, that heartless." Jun Luoyu's body was shivering. "Had it not been the fact that A'Jiao made me promise her before her death to never find you for revenge in my lifetime, I would have definitely killed you."

Jun Luoyu hated.

He hated the Blood Devil Emperor Xue Tianya. But, the request of his lover before her death, how could he dare to disagree?

"Jun Luoyu." Xue Yi's cold voice sounded. "Although you and A'Jiao have feelings for each other, you were not married. Father bestowed A'Jiao to me, thus she was my wife. She became my wife. However, you two still dared to fool around. Could it be that it was wrong for me to kill A'Jiao? Why do you think that you can continue to spout rubbish here?"

"Enough."

Xue Tianya's brows slightly frowned. He then smiled at Ao Wuming and said, "I'm sorry about the comical display, brother Wuming."

"It's not funny in the slightest." Replied Ao Wuming with a mild smile. Xue Tianya was unable to help himself from getting somewhat angry in his heart.

Qin Yu who had stood there and listened the whole time had finally understood what happened.

A'Jiao was Xue Tianya's adopted daughter. She and Jun Luoyu loved each other. As the Blood Devil Emperor, Xue Tianya, to not know about it was impossible. It was likely that at the beginning, Xue Tianya did not oppose their love. However, afterwards, Devil Emperor Xue Yi took fancy upon A'Jiao and asked his father to bestow A'Jiao to him.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xue Tianya bestowed A'Jiao to Devil Emperor Xue Yi.

Afterwards, a meeting between A'Jiao and Jun Luoyu was found out by Xue Yi. In a rage, Xue Yi wanted to kill A'Jiao. Jun Luoyu's strength was too weak and he was completely unable to resist.

Before A'Jiao died, she begged Xue Yi to spare Jun Luoyu. At the same time, she asked Jun Luoyu to not find her father for revenge. It's likely that A'Jiao still had a very deep feeling toward her father, Xue Tianya.

"A'Jiao is a pitiable person. Brother Luoyu is also a pitiable person. This Xue Yi is a boorish fellow. As for Xue Tianya..." Qin Yu was unable to make a judgement. If one were to say he's affectionate? He decided A'Jiao's livelihood at will without any regards to her own desire. If one were to say Xue Tianya was heartless? He was however extremely concerned about his son, Xue Yi.

"Don't speak of this matter anymore." Xue Tianya's face had a trace of anger. "Jun Luoyu, you listen clearly. I had raised A'Jiao and could also be considered as her father. Thus, I could naturally determine whom she marries. And Xue Yi is A'Jiao's husband. Thus he naturally could determine her life and death. This was unquestionable."

"As for you, Jun Luoyu. Just because you said that A'Jiao is your wife; does that make A'Jiao your wife?" Xue Tianya lightly laughed and said. "Aren't you a bit too delusional? You want to kill Xue Yi? Let me tell you; for every day that I live, you can forget about succeeding."

Xue Tianya took a glance at the Devil Emperor Xue Yi by his side. Within his eyes was a trace of deep love.

Xue Tianya owed his son greatly. He had lost Xue Yi when he was still an infant. Only after Xue Yi grew up amongst wild beasts and reached a high level did Xue Tianya find his son once more.

This caused Xue Yi to have an estrangement with Xue Tianya the whole time. It was so much that when Xue Tianya gave him the name 'Xue Yi,' it was also directly changed by Xue Yi into 'Xue Yi.'

[TL: this might be confusing. It's same sounding but different characters.

Xue Tianya's surname is Xue(雪,snow)

Xue Yi's surname is Xue (血, blood)

the original name was 雪伊 (snow, he/she), pronounced Xue Yi.

Xue Yi changed the name into 血衣(blood, clothes), also pronounced as Xue Yi.

Basically he changed the name to two different characters that had pretty much the exact pronunciation in mandarin. ]

Inside the Embroidery Forest.

"Big brother, that Devil Emperor Xue Yi requested for Lin'er to be buried with her disciple. How could you still be this calm and watch the fire burning across the river?" Said the Black Immortal Emperor of the Black and White Dual Emperors.

Lin Yin's face had a trace of smile. "Isn't the story getting more and more interesting now? Furthermore, it's about time for Lin'er to learn of the dangers. It is not too late for us to show up at the last moment."

"Last moment?" Big brother, aren't you afraid that Lin'er would be like her parents..." Right after the White Immortal Emperor spoke those words, Lin Yin's expression immediately changed.

Level nine Immortal Emperor Lin Yin.

Throughout the whole of Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, there were not many people that dared to underestimate him. However, several thousand years ago, his son and daughter-in-law were killed by someone in a war. It happened on an extremely big planet of the Indigo Bay Star Field, the Bright Feather Star.

From that day on, the Indigo Bay Star Field no longer had a Bright Feather Star.

All of the super experts knew that the furious Lin Yin had crushed the Bright Feather Star into pieces. It was so much that all the people that lived in the Bright Feather Star ended up being buried with his son and daughter-in-law.

No one was able to imagine that the Hidden Emperor that had always been soft, refined and cultured also possessed such a bloody and cruel side.

"Third brother, you need not worry. As long as Lin'er is on the Hidden Emperor Star, there's absolutely no one that can harm her." Said Lin Yi cold and matter-of-factly.

The Black Immortal Emperor and the White Immortal Emperor glanced at each other and then said no more.

"That Xue Yi. Xue Tianya ought to discipline him properly. Did he really think that he could make whoever he wants to make buried with his disciple?" Said the Hidden Emperor cold and matter-of-factly. Then, he moved his gaze toward the direction of the East Star City.

With Lin Yin's strength, he was absolutely able to arrive at the place of occurrence in an instant.

Countless people of the East Star City were standing around and watching from a distant. However, there was not a single person in the area of a hundred miles from where Xue Tianya, Ao Wuming, Qin Yu, Jun Luoyu and the rest stood. All of the people were outside of this hundred miles radius.

"Brother Wuming, the cause of this matter was merely a small thing. I suggest that we shall go through and clarify what happened here before we make a decision. What do you think?" Said Xue Tianya smilingly.

Ao Wuming also nodded in approval.

"Xue Yi, what happened here?" Xue Tianya looked at Xue Yi.

Xue Yi said calmly. "What exactly happened, even I am uncertain. I only know that my disciple, Guo Nu, fell in love with a woman and wanted to make their woman his companion. Afterwards, this Qin Yu killed my disciple Guo Nu."

"Qin Yu?" Hearing these words, Xue Tianya's gaze turned to Qin Yu. He merely took a glance and then didn't say anymore.

Amongst the four great upper realm emissaries that descended on to the Mortal Realm was Blood Devil Du Zhongjun that was dispatched by Xue Tianya. After exiting the Ni Yang's Realm, Du Zhongjun had also notified Xue Tianya of everything that happened. Thus, Xue Tianya was very sensitive toward the name Qin Yu.

"Guo Nu, no wonder." Xue Tianya came to an understanding in his heart.

He understood why his son was so frantically angry.

So it turns out that it's because of Guo Nu who practically had the same childhood as his son. Xue Tianya understood very well that his son had always been in an estrangement with him. However, his relationship with that Guo Nu was exceptionally good.

Perhaps in Xue Yi's heart, Guo Nu's standing was as high as Xue Tianya's if not higher.

"Xue Yi, where is that woman that you spoke of?" Asked Xue Tianya.

"She was taken into Qin Yu's Immortal Mansion by him." Xue Yi looked toward Qin Yu.

Xue Tianya's heart moved. He then smiled at Qin Yu. "Qin Yu, could you let that woman out of your Immortal Mansion first? Rest assured, with brother Wuming present, even I would not get violent."

Qin Yu's gaze fell on Ao Wuming.

"Blood Devil Emperor is after all a man of high standing, how could his words not be trusted? Brother Qin Yu, you should let that woman out." Said Ao Wuming while smiling.

Qin Yu nodded. Soon after, he released Lin Lin and Sisi from his Qingyu Immortal Mansion.

Lin Lin and Sisi suddenly appeared next to Qin Yu.

"I presume that girl clothed young lady should be the woman that Guo Nu took a fancy for?" Said Xue Tianya with a smile.

"Young lady, you need not be worried. You two are now safe. Xue Tianya is after all the Blood Devil Emperor, he is someone of high standing and would not go back on his words." Said Qin Yu to Lin Lin and Sisi.

"Thank you mister." Said Lin Lin. However, she was shocked from the bottom of her heart that this man in white was the Blood Devil Emperor. At the same time, she was also confused as to why none of her senior martial brothers or her grandpa were present.

Xue Tianya smiled and said. "Young lady, Guo Nu wanted you to be his wife, is that true?"

"Right." Lin Lin nodded.

"And then Qin Yu killed Guo Nu?" Asked Xue Tianya again.

"Mister Qin Yu killed Guo Nu in order to save me." Said Lin Lin hurriedly.

Xue Tianya looked toward Ao Wuming while smiling. "Brother Wuming, based on the words of both side, I believe both you and I have came to an understanding of what happened. Guo Nu forcibly wanted Lin Lin to become his companion. Although it is wrong, his crime was not enough for him to die. Furthermore... this matter should not be related to Qin Yu. Completely uncalled for, this Qin Yu killed Guo Nu. As the saying goes, he who killed another shall pay with his life..."

"He who killed another shall pay with his life?" Ao Wuming's gaze turned cold.

Qin Yu's expression had also changed.

This Xue Tianya unexpectedly went up against him. Ever since he opened the Jiang Lan's Realm, Qin Yu no longer feared anyone. This was also the reason why he was daring to openly use his Divine Armor.

"He who killed another shall pay with his life?" Lin Lin walked forward. "Senior Blood Devil Emperor, that Guo Nu forcibly wanted me to become his companion so much that he wanted to arrest me. Mister Qin Yu only moved to save me. Furthermore, Mister Qin Yu had even spared Guo Nu two three times. It's just that Guo Nu was acting as if it's either Mister Qin Yu who dies or he who dies. Without a lack of better option, mister Qin Yu finally killed him. Could it be that Senior Blood Devil Emperor thinks that Mister Qin Yu ought to allow Guo Nu to continuously try to kill him without retaliating?"

"Little girl, you dared to interrupt even me?" Xue Tianya merely gazed at her and Lin Lin started to shudder as her complexion grew paler.

As the Blood Devil Emperor, Xue Tianya had never placed the level three Heavenly Immortal Lin Lin in his mind.

"Xue Tianya, is it not acceptable for my granddaughter to speak her mind confidently?" A voice containing anger sounded.

A green figure, a white figure and a black figure appeared at almost the same time. The people who arrived were the Hidden Emperor and the Black and White Dual Emperors.

"Grandfather, second grandfather, third grandfather." Lin Lin saw the people who arrived and immediately flew to them. She directly threw herself into the bosom of Lin Yin.

"Senior Lin Yin." Seeing the arriving people, Ao Wuming immediately cupped his hand in respect.

At the same time, Ao Wuming had a slight smile on his face. In his heart, he was secretly pleased. "So it turns out that the story that when Hidden Emperor's son and daughter-in-law died, they left behind an infant was true. This Hidden Emperor concealed that so very tightly. Blood Devil Emperor, weren't you acting all arrogant? Let's see how arrogant you act now."

"Qin Yu, Luoyu, Yan'er, come, let me introduce you guys. This is senior Hidden Emperor. These two are senior Black Immortal Emperor and senior White Immortal Emperor." So Ao Wuming full of smiles.

Qin Yu, Jun Luoyu and Jiang Yan all had a smile on their face. They all walked forward and greeted their seniors respectfully.

And at this moment, Xue Tianya merely smiled as he shook his head. "Brother Lin, never had I expected it, truly never had I expected it. Who would've known that this girl was your Lin, you truly concealed the information about your granddaughter very tightly; even I didn't know that you had a granddaughter."

Xue Tianya still had a smiling appearance. However, Lin Yin's expression was ice-cold.

"Xue Tianya, today's matter fault lies in your son, Xue Yi. Could it be that you think that... your son could have whoever he wants to be buried with his disciple? He actually dared to want my granddaughter to be buried with his disciple. Humph, he even dared to act like a tyrant to my granddaughter." At this moment, Lin Yin didn't give Xue Tianya the slightest amount of face.

Xue Tianya's brows slightly creased.

"Xue Yi, come out and apologize to Miss Lin." Said Xue Tianya coldly.

Actually, Xue Tianya was very unpleased to help his son on this matter today. For one he would be offending Ao Wuming. Two, he would offend Jiang Yan's grandmother. It's one thing if it was merely those two. But now, there's an addition of the Hidden Emperor.

Hidden Emperor was way too strong. Not only was he himself a level nine Immortal Emperor, his two good friends, the Black and White Dual Immortals, were also level eight Immortal Emperors.

Xue Yi frowned. In a split second, he had thought a lot of stuff. However finally, he still clenched his teeth as he walked forward. He lowered his head and bowed. "Miss Lin, it is my fault this time around. I hope that Miss Lin would forgive me."

Qin Yu and them were able to see that Devil Emperor Xue Yi's veins on his forehead were violently bulging. He was evidently trying his hardest to resist his anger.

Chapter 48 – Three Demands

The Devil Emperor Xue Yi was, after all, a Devil Emperor. Moreover, he was a proud and arrogant Devil Emperor. For him to apologize to a level three Heavenly Immortal little girl in front of all these high level experts, it was truly painstaking.

"Let it pass, grandfather." Seeing Xue Yi's appearance, Lin Lin's heart grew soft and said.

"Xue Yi, quickly thank young lady Lin Lin." Xue Tianya said calmly.

Although Xue Tianya appeared to be calm and collected, he was burning was rage in his heart. As the Blood Devil Emperor that had crisscrossed the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, when had he ever suffered from an unfavourable situation? However today, being confronted with Ao Wuming, Hidden Emperor, Black and White Dual Emperors and the rest, he had no choice but to submit to humiliation.

Xue Yi clenched his teeth. His gums were trembling: "Thank..."

"Xue Tianya, this time, it was your son's disciple that wanted to force my granddaughter to become his companion. Who do you think your son's disciple was? He dared act so tyrannic in my Hidden Emperor Star. And then your son even wanted to bury my granddaughter with his disciple. Did you think that... a single apology would be enough?"

Lin Yin's eyes were flickering like a thunderbolt as he opened and closed them.

Xue Tianya was dumbstruck.

"I, Lin Yin, only have a single granddaughter. No matter who the person is, I would not allow them to bully my granddaughter. If you are not able to handle today's matter to my satisfaction, then I will definitely not let this matter drop."

Lin Yin was overbearing.

Xue Tianya was momentarily stunned as to what to say.

Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu, Jiang Yan and Qin Yu were also shocked to see this scene.

What a Hidden Emperor!

Qin Yu secretly gasped in admiration in his heart.

"It would appear than rumors cannot be trusted. This Hidden Emperor was not at all like the rumors. He doesn't have the good temperaments of the rumors at all. When he's mad, it's also enough to frighten people." Qin Yu happily watched the play from the side.

"Brother Luoyu, brother Qin Yu, if my guess is correct, Hidden Emperor is about to establish his prestige this time around." Ao Wuming voice, that was rejoicing in other people's misfortune, sounded in Qin Yu's mind.

Qin Yu looked toward Ao Wuming.

"You all don't have to be confused, Hidden Emperor isn't one to covet power or territory. However, he's utterly concerned about his relatives. That year when Hidden Emperor's son and daughter in law were killed, in his anger, Hidden Emperor eliminated all the people present on that planet without regards to whether they're enemies or regular civilians. The whole planet was turned into cosmic dust." Saying till this point, Ao Wuming also gasped in admiration.

"Experts at the Immortal Emperor level, it's not at all difficult for them to destroy a planet. However, those who dared to destroy a planet completely and make it into cosmic dust like the Hidden Emperor; were truly few and slim." Praised Ao Wuming.

Qin Yu was slightly startled. Unable to help himself, he looked at Lin Yin.

That amiable looking middle aged man actually completely destroyed a planet when he's angry.

"Hidden Emperor is also not someone that's to be provoked. This time around, Blood Devil Emperor is certain to pay bitterly." Qin Yu started to comprehend a little bit of the actions of Hidden Emperor.

Ao Wuming's voice once again resounded in Qin Yu's mind. "Qin Yu, Luoyu, the fact that Hidden Emperor had a granddaughter was extremely secretive. Hidden Emperor had also been always keeping this matter hidden. I also only found out about it today. I think that Hidden Emperor, taking into consideration that his granddaughter's existence was to be known by others after today, might be planning to take this occasion to establish his prestige and intimidate others."

"Pitiful Blood Devil Emperor." Qin Yu laughed as he sound transferred. "Hidden Emperor establishing his prestige ended up all the way to the Blood Devil Emperor."

Ao Wuming and Jun Luoyu both had a smiling expression on their faces.

Qin Yu and the others were able to tell that, Xue Tianya had also naturally concluded that Hidden Emperor was planning to establish his prestige.

"Xue Tianya, we three brothers are watching you. Lin'er has received such bullying, it's not something that a simple apology would fix." Black Immortal Emperor also said with an ice-cold face.

Throughout the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

Hidden Emperor and his two brothers really didn't come across anyone that they feared. Even if Emperor Yu, Mystic Emperor and Cyan Emperor were to join hands, Hidden Emperor and his two brothers would still not fear them in the slightest. Hidden Emperor, Black Immortal Emperor and White Immortal Emperor all had ice cold faces.

Clearly... if what Xue Tianya said was not pleasing, Hidden Emperor and his two brothers would not care about acting to dispose Xue Tianya. They were even willing to act together and kill the Blood Devil Emperor, Xue Tianya, on the spot.

"Three lunatics." Xue Tianya was burning with rage.

However, he displayed a sincere smile on his face. "Brother Lin, brother Hei (black), brother Bai (white), this time, it was indeed my son, Xue Yi's fault. I had already made him apologize earlier. If the three of you believe that it's inadequate, feel free to suggest how I should handle this unfilial son of mine. I would certainly not shield him!" Said Xue Tianya upright and strictly.

Hidden Emperor muttered to himself for a moment. He then slowly said. "Xue Tianya, you also only have this one son. Although he offended my granddaughter this time around, out of respect for you, Xue Tianya, I will also not take his life."

Hearing these words, Xue Tianya had a slight sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart.

As long as he's not going to kill his son, the matter is still tolerable.

"However, while death might be forgiven, punishment cannot be escaped. I would give three demands here. Xue Tianya, you must guarantee that your son would accomplish them, otherwise... I, Lin Yin, will definitely kill your son. At that time, I will not care about your, Xue Tianya's status." Lin Yin's voice was serene and calm. However, it had an irresistible majestic feel to it.

"Brother Lin, please speak." Said Xue Tianya while smiling.

While Xue Tianya was able to keep a calm appearance, his son, Xue Yi's whole body was currently slightly trembling. The veins on his hands and forehead were bulging.

"The first demand: starting from today, your son, Xue Yi, is not allowed to step into the Indigo Bay Star Field. The moment he does, he dies." Said Lin Yi indifferently.

The Indigo Bay Star Field is the common border of the Immortal and Devil Realms. It was classified as an extremely important strategic location. Generally, experts would frequently step foot on the Indigo Bay Star Field to get together. To make Xue Yi to be unable to set foot on the Indigo Bay Star Field for all his life was certainly a very heavy punishment.

Xue Tianya slightly paused before saying. "That's fine."

Xue Yi who stood to the side was not very concerned about the request. To him, the Indigo Bay Star Field was not something extraordinary. However, the fact that he was banned from entering it caused him to feel as if he had received the greatest insult.

The proud and arrogant Xue Yi's heart was currently filled with anger.

"Endure." This was the only word in Xue Yi's mind.

Lin Yin slightly nodded. He then once again said tranquilly. "The second demand: your son is to receive a palm strike from me!"

"What?!"

Xue Tianya's facial expression took a huge change.

"Seems like there is a major change." Qin Yu also immediately started to pay closer attention to the scene in front of him. To make the level six Devil Emperor Xue Yi take on the palm strike of the Hidden Emperor, Lin Yin, head on?

Who was Lin Yu?

He's a level nine Immortal Emperor, a super expert that's about to ascend to the Divine Realm and was known as the number one expert in the Immortal Realm.

Lin Yin's palm strike; if Lin Yin were to want to kill Xue Yi, then Xue Yi would definitely be unable to escape with his life intact after taking that strike.

"Brother Lin, isn't this demand a bit too excessive? Brother Lin, you are the magnificent Hidden Emperor, a level nine Immortal Emperor; your strength was so strong that even I resign myself to be inferior to you. However, you want to dirty your hands personally and handle my son..." The smile on Xue Tianya's face had disappeared. What replaced it was a gloominess.

"I could take a step back and personally receive your palm strike, what say you?" Said Xue Tianya as he looked at Hidden Emperor.

Xue Tianya was after all one of the three top players of the Devil Realm. His strength was only a level lower than Lin Yin. Moreover, with the addition of some of his special tricks, even if Lin Yin wanted to kill Xue Tianya, it would still be very hard. With merely a single palm strike... at the very most, it would cause Xue Tianya to sustain injuries. Xue Tianya was able to recover from the injuries in a blink of an eye.

Lin Yin shook his head. "When I said three demands, I meant three demands. It cannot be altered. This second demand of mine, your only choice is to accept or refuse. If you were to refuse; you know the consequences."

A light flashed past Xue Tianya's eye.

"Father." Xue Yi who had his head down the whole time had lifted his head up and looked toward Xue Tianya.

"Father, let's fight. We don't need to be afraid of that old fool." Xue Yi's voice transmission resounded in Xue Tianya's mind. "This old bastard is clearly humiliating us. We cannot let this continue."

The corner of Xue Yi's eyes were bloodshot.

"Keep standing to the side, don't be reckless." Xue Tianya transmitted his voice back shouting.

"Brother Lin." Xue Tianya looked at Lin Yin. "You had said earlier that you will spare my son's life. However, now you want my son to take on a palm strike of yours, what is your intention?"

"I have already said that I would spare your son's life so naturally I would spare your son's life." Said Lin Yin indifferently. "You still haven't told me whether you're agreeing or disagreeing."

Xue Tianya laughed. He stared at Lin Yin and said. "Good, Lin Yin, I trust that you will keep your promise. Xue Yi, come out and prepare to take on senior Hidden Emperor's palm strike. As senior Hidden Emperor is your senior, he would definitely not kill you."

Xue Yi took a deep breath and then walked a couple steps forward.

Although Xue Yi was proud and arrogant, he was not stupid. He knew when he could be proud and arrogant and when he had to endure silently.

"I will not kill you." Lin Yi waved away his sleeve.

[TL: Chinese gowns, or Hanfu, have super long sleeves.]

"But, I will make it so that you will forever remember today." Lin Yin's eyes shined brightly.

At the moment Lin Yi waved his sleeve, a "pfff" sound was heard and Devil Emperor Xue Yi was knocked back several tens of steps, by a palm strike. Soon after, Devil Emperor Xue Yi kneeled down as his blood continuously escaped from the corner of his mouth.

Xue Yi slowly raised his head and looked at Lin Yin with a cold stare.

A flash of anger flashed past Xue Tianya's face. He already knew what Lin Yin's palm strike was meant to do.

Qin Yu, however, didn't understand what he was watching.

Isn't that just a palm strike?

As long as he's alive, it should be very easy for him to recover. Why was Xue Tianya so angry?

Of those present on the stage, only the Black Immortal Emperor, White Immortal Emperor, Xue Tianya and Ao Wuming knew what exactly happened with that palm strike.

"Qin Yu, Luoyu, that palm strike from the Hidden Emperor was no regular palm strike. When his palm struck Xue Yi's body, did you guys notice that several green threads were shot out from the Hidden Emperor's hand into Xue Yi's head?" Ao Wuming's voice transmission resounded in Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu's heads.

"I didn't see that." Jun Luoyu's voice transmission resounded in Qin Yu and Ao Wuming's heads.

"I also didn't see it. I only managed to barely take note of a special energy." Said Qin Yu via voice transmission.

"That's right, that was a type of energy that belonged to Lin Yin. Even though Xue Yi wore a Divine Armor, Lin Yin still made the energy directly penetrate through Xue Yi's head and into his body. It even infiltrated into the interior of Xue Yi's Nascent Soul. " Ao Wuming gasped in admiration. "This move of his was certainly very fierce."

Hearing till this part, Qin Yu completely understood what happened.

"Unless this Xue Yi cultivated to the level of level nine Devil Emperor, he would forever be incapable of removing this energy."

"This energy of mine was not a lot. Xue Yi should be only a level six Devil Emperor right? When are to use your Nascent Soul, make sure to use half of your energy to suppress this prohibition energy I left behind. Otherwise, this prohibition energy of mine might cause your Nascent Soul to enter a chaotic state and explode." Said Lin Yin tranquilly.

The meaning was very clear.

Level six Devil Emperor Xue Yi, when he's a level six Devil Emperor, could only utilize half of his strength.

When his power increases, the amount of energy needed to suppress Lin Yin's prohibition energy's influence would naturally decrease.

Xue Tianya was however somewhat enraged. The prohibition set up by Lin Yin's energy, unless one reached level nine Devil Emperor level, was completely incapable of being destroyed. Furthermore, only the person who were inflicted with this prohibition energy could destroy it with his own strength. The energy of others cannot enter the internal part of the Nascent Soul as they wished.

"Brother Lin, we had already accomplished the second demand, what is the third demand?" Said Xue Tianya coldly.

The current Xue Tianya was already incapable of keeping the smiling appearance that he earlier had.

Lin Yin said tranquilly. "The third demand is very simple. Jun Luoyu and your son had grudges. It's one thing for them to kill each other. But this little brother by the name of Qin Yu..."

As Lin Yin said those words, he pointed at Qin Yu.

Qin Yu was slightly startled. "How did it come to me?"

Lin Yin continued. "Little brother Qin Yu, he was complete stranger to your son before this. This time, it was because of my granddaughter that he killed your son's disciple. Your son's disciple was excessively domineering this time around, he even tried a futile attempt to seize my granddaughter. Little brother Qin Yu stepping in was not only not wrong, he was also very much in the right."

Hearing those words, Qin Yu was unable to stop himself from shaking his head and smiling.

Right? Wrong?

Whether what he did was right or wrong, how could he possibly care about what others think? This time, the reason why he stepped in was because this 'Lin Lin' was the girl that his late disciple liked.

"Little brother Qin Yu was not wrong in the slightest but your son instead seriously injured him. Thus, he should apologize to him. This is my third demand!" Said Lin Yin tranquilly.

Xue Tianya's gaze shot towards Qin Yu.

"Xue Yi, apologize." Xue Tianya's voice was flat.

Devil Emperor Xue Yi who stood to the side currently had a face as pale as white paper. At this moment, he was still continuously using his power to suppress the prohibition within his Nascent Soul. The existence of the prohibition had caused him to be unable to utilize all his energy anymore in the future.

After clenching his teeth, Devil Emperor Xue Yi walked forward and stared at Qin Yu, like a viper staring at its prey. He said ice-coldly. "Qin Yu, it was my fault this time around, I'm sorry."

"There is no need to be like this."

Qin Yu suddenly stretch out his hand to stop Xue Yi. "I know that you are currently very unconvinced. To be forced to apologize to me like this, you find it difficult to say and I also don't feel comfortable in accepting it. I knew that with me killing your disciple, you would not let go of this hatred."

"Xue Yi, I welcome you to find me to avenge your disciple at any time. Of course... as for who would end up killing who, that's not a certainty." After Qin Yu finished saying those words, he turned around. "You shouldn't bother trying to attack me now. Earlier, you were unable to kill me. The current you should only have half the strength that you displayed earlier, I assume."

This type of apology, Qin Yu was totally disinclined to accept.

After Qin Yu said those words, he looked to Lin Lin and slightly smiled. "Young lady Lin Lin, with the Hidden Emperor as your grandfather, whether a nobody like me were to interfere or not, there wouldn't be much difference."

"Mister Qin Yu." Said Lin Lin hurriedly.

Qin Yu said while laughing. "Young lady Lin Lin need not speak further, I know what kind of strength I possess. However, there's still a sentence that I must say. The promise that I had made at that time, 'In the future, no matter what the matter is, if you were to come to me, then I would definitely spare no effort to help you in resolving it,' now sounds like a joke. However, young lady Lin Lin merely need to remember those words in your heart. If there comes a day that you could use my help and don't despise my low strength, please send a transmission to me."

After saying those words, Qin Yu looked toward Ao Wuming, Jun Luoyu and Jiang Yan. "Big brother Wuming, there's not much business for me here, I will return first. Seniors Hidden Emperor, Black Immortal Emperor and White Immortal Emperor, this junior bids his farewell."

Chapter 49 – Within the Jiang Lan's Realm

Lin Yin nodded while smiling. "If little brother Qin Yu has time in the future, feel free to come check out the Hidden Lead."

"Certainly." Said Qin Yu very respectfully.

At this moment, Jun Luoyu spoke. "Qin Yu, I will go home together with you." He then turned toward Hidden Emperor and the rest. "Seniors, this junior will be leaving first with brother Qin Yu."

"I'm going too." Jiang Yan didn't bother to pay any respect to anyone and directly followed Jun Luoyu.

As for Ao Wuming, it was hard for him to casually leave. After all, he was an individual at the same level as Hidden Emperor and them. Furthermore, he also had some things he wanted to discuss with the Hidden Emperor.

"Brother Lin, this girl Yan'er doesn't know etiquette, please don't mind her too much." Laughed Ao Wuming.

"That girl is called Jiang Yan, correct? I had heard about her from Granny Yin Hua." As Hidden Emperor looked at the Jiang Yan's distant figure, he had a slight smile on his face. "Before I met Granny Yin Hua, I really had never imagined that there are experts like her in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realms."

[TL: Yin Hua Silver Flower. Not sure if it's her name or a title yet.]

Ao Wuming gasped in admiration and said. "That's right, Granny Yin Hua's power is deep and unmeasurable. Merely, I do not know whether she had passed the Divine Tribulation or not."

"That's hard to say. I also cannot see through Granny Yin Hua. Regardless, her strength was at least that of a level nine Immortal Emperor." Said Hidden Emperor with absolute certainty.

"Brother Xue, what say you?" Ao Wuming suddenly looked toward Xue Tianya.

This time around, Xue Tianya had suffered a huge loss. However, this Xue Tianya still had his grand and imposing air. "Granny Yin Hua is indeed a super expert. We unexpectedly never knew of a expert like her all these years; to be honest, I really am a bit afraid. Exactly how many experts like Granny Yin Hua was there in this Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm?"

"It's impossible for there to be a lot." Laughed Ao Wuming.

Xue Tianya slightly shook his head and smiled tranquilly. "I would not talk about this matter anymore. Brother Lin, I still have an important matter to attend to so I would be unable to have a get-together with brother Lin and would be taking my leave first."

"Don't bother to see me out." Said Lin Yin as he nodded.

Xue Tianya looked toward Xue Yi who was at the side. The father and son soon turned into two rays of light and disappeared into the horizon.

...

Blue Flame Star.

In a certain back living room of a luxurious manor.

Blood Devil Emperor Xue Tianya had a gloomy expression. His son, Xue Yi, also had an ugly expression.

This time around, both father and son had suffered a major loss.

"Xue Yi, you were hit with that Lin Yin's prohibition energy; that Lin Yin is too vicious, he directly inserted that prohibition energy into the interior of your Nascent Soul. Even if I were to obtain the strength of a level nine Devil Emperor, I would still not dare to insert my energy into your Nascent Soul to break that prohibition energy. You could only rely on yourself." Comforted Xue Tianya.

The Nascent Soul of a Devil Emperor was created through countless years of cultivation. It is extremely important. It is not a place where others could casually enter their energy into.

That Lin Yin completely didn't care about what the consequences might be. That's why he directly used that move on Xue Yi.

"I'm fine." Xue Yi said indifferently. However, his eyes possessed an overcasting fierceness. "I am only a level six Devil Emperor right now, it requires me half of my energy in order to suppress that prohibition. However, once I reached level seven Devil Emperor, ten or twenty percent of my power would be all it takes. This prohibition would not affect me much in the future."

Xue Tianya nodded.

"Xue Yi, you have done very well this time around, did you know that?" Xue Tianya looked at Xue Yi.

Xue Tianya had instructed his son for very many years.

When he first started, Xue Yi was exactly like Guo Nu. He didn't know how to be flexible or act. All he had in his heart was the law of the forest. After all these years had passed, Xue Yi was merely a little bit better than before. He was still very far away from the goal that Xue Tianya had.

"I know." Xue Yi nodded indifferently. "I shouldn't have allowed Nu to go to the Hidden Emperor Star to begin with. That was a total mistake. He was too unyielding and don't know how to endure silently at all."

Xue Tianya had a slight smile on his face.

His own son was criticizing Guo Nu. As a matter of fact, back then Xue Yi was about the same as Guo Nu. Even now, he was only merely a little bit better.

"I also know that I had made a mistake. You had taught me that I need to judge the hour and size up the situation. When I had encountered Jiang Yan, I should've calmed myself. Behind Jiang Yan was that Granny Yin Hua. There's also Qin Yu. Qin Yu possessed an Immortal Sword, two Immortal Armors and a Immortal Mansion. The sect that stood behind him was certainly extraordinary." Said Xue Yi sincerely.

"Haha..."

Xue Tianya started to laugh out loud. "Xue Yi, you're mistaken here. Jiang Yan does indeed have Granny Yin Hua standing behind her but that Qin Yu, contrary to your expectations, you need not worry too much."

"But he possessed two Divine Armors." Xue Yi emphasized.

"Two?"

Xue Tianya sneered. "Let me tell you, the Immortal Mansion that this Qin Yu possessed should be the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. The Divine Sword that he possessed should be the Divine Sword, Sky Piercer. As for his Divine Armor, it should be the Divine Armor, Black Frozen Snow."

"Father, are you talking about the things that Emperor Ni Yang possessed?" Xue Yi came to some sort of understanding.

Xue Tianya had not told his son about the information that Blood Devil Du Zhongjun sent over from the Mortal Realm. That's because Xue Tianya knew that his son's ability to analyze stuff wasn't that good.

"Right, if I am correct, then this Qin Yu's real name ought to be Lan Feng. If he really was Qin Yu, then this Qin Yu was a bit too much of a genius. In a mere two hundred years, he was able to reach his strength of Dacheng from the Mortal Realm to his current level?" Xue Tianya laughed insipidly.

[TL: debating about whether to translate Dacheng as Great Success. Guess not lol.]

"Father, what are you talking about?" Xue Yi was confused.

Xue Tianya stood up. "You need not concern yourself with this, all you have to know is that... this Qin Yu, he won't be able to live much longer."

"Of course he won't. He killed Nu, I would certainly kill him." Said Xue Yi coldly.

Xue Tianya shook his head and said. "You are to immediately return to the Devil Realm. If you were to continue to stay in the Blue Flame Star, then Lin Yin would certainly pick a quarrel and might even kill you. As for killing Qin Yu, it's better that your father, I, do it personally."

"Bewitching God Painting, Ten Thousand Beast Atlas, they ought to be mine this time." Said Xue Tianya in his heart.

At the moment when Xue Tianya just returned to the Blue Flame Star, Xue Tianya's subordinates had already started to monitor Qin Yu from the shadows. In fact, not only were Xue Tianya doing that, Emperor Yu's troops were also monitoring Qin Yu.

Xue Tianya did not uncover Qin Yu's identity when he was in front of Qin Yu because he wanted to have an even more relaxed time seizing his treasures. He didn't want other experts to know of this information.

Although Hidden Emperor's strength was very strong and he also knew that the big shots of all sides had previously dispatched people down to the Mortal Realm, he didn't know what had happened to the emissaries when they were in the Mortal Realm. Thus, he naturally didn't know of the existence of Qin Yu.

...

In merely a couple days, the Hidden Emperor Star had experienced a Cosmic Energies gathering in the surroundings of the planet and then strangely formed words. Afterwards, in the East Star City, a great battle between experts of the Emperor level occurred.

Regardless of whether it's the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm or the Demon Realm, they all had several hundreds troops located within the Hidden Emperor Star. The great powers had all even increased the amount of troops in the Hidden Emperor Star.

Within Demon Emperor Meng Hong's mansion.

Qin Yu had spent the past couple days pretty relaxedly. However, there was one thing that caused Qin Yu to feel somewhat unwell. It was that Jun Luoyu was about to depart from the Hidden Emperor Star. Jiang Yan, still as before, was also planning to follow Jun Luoyu.

After a short period of joyous time, Jun Luoyu and Jiang Yan still planned to separate from everyone.

At the Interstellar Conveying Array of the Hidden Emperor Star.

"Brother Qin Yu, big brother Wuming." Jun Luoyu squeezed out a smile. "The battle with Xue Yi had cleared my head. I would no longer think about other stuff. All I want to do now was to set my mind to training. I planned to return to my hometown, Blue Water Star, and return to the peaceful small island where I had previously trained at. The next time us brothers meet again, I would be at the very least a level six Immortal Emperor and might even be stronger than that."

Qin Yu was very much in approval of Jun Luoyu's decision.

Rather than wandering, it's better to stay in one place and practice quietly.

Qin Yu had once thought of telling Jun Luoyu to enter the Jiang Lan's Realm and train there. However, he knew of one thing. He needed to proceed toward the Demon Realm. From here to the Demon Realm, he would certainly have to pass through the territory of Emperor Yu.

This journey would be filled with danger and he didn't want Jun Luoyu to be worried about him.

Ao Wuming started to chuckle. "Luoyu, you said that the next time we meet, you'd be at the very least a level six Immortal Emperor and might even be stronger than that; you better not let us discover that you were bragging."

"Wuming, Genius Immortal Emperor is not someone who jokes around." Lian Zhu who stood at the side laughed.

"How talented my big brother Luoyu is, do we even need to discuss that?" Said Jiang Yan proudly.

Qin Yu patted Jun Luoyu's shoulder. "Luoyu, I don't know when we'll meet again. However, I wish that you don't go find that Xue Yi for revenge before you get strong enough."

"I know." Jun Luoyu nodded.

Finally, Jun Luoyu and Jiang Yan had departed. As for Qin Yu and Ao Wuming, they continued to stay on the Hidden Emperor Star.

Within the Wuming Dragon Mansion.

"What?! You say you're planning to enter seclusion training in the middle of the Cosmic Space?" Ao Wuming's face was filled with difficulty to believe. "Brother Qin Yu, this Wuming Dragon Mansion of mine was extremely safe. To enter seclusion training in the middle of the Cosmic Space is extremely dangerous."

Qin Yu slightly smiled. "Big brother Wuming, I have my own consideration. You don't have to be worried about that. Furthermore, I also have my own Immortal Mansion, you know that too."

"Right." Remembering Qin Yu's Immortal Mansion, Ao Wuming laughed. "You have that Immortal Mansion, you indeed don't have to worry about any danger. However, why must you enter into the Cosmic Space?" Ao Wuming was still a little puzzled.

Qin Yu felt helpless.

He was unable to tell Ao Wuming that he was going to absorb the Elemental Spirit Energy of the universe and enter into the Jiang Lan's Realm. With the absorption speed of Jiang Lan's Realm, if he were to use it in the Hidden Emperor Star, he would definitely be found out. The time rate and the amount of Elemental Spirit Energy within the Jiang Lan's Realm was really too astonishing.

"It's the difference between the training methods. When I train within the Cosmic Space, my speed is even faster." Qin Yu smiled and said. "Brother Wuming, the amount of time I would be spending in seclusion training this time around would not be long. It would absolutely not be longer than the fifty years from last time."

With the scale of ten to one, Qin Yu believed that in order to cultivate his soul from the second layer of the Earthly Realm to the third layer shouldn't take a long time.

"Fine, I am unable to persuade you." Ao Wuming smiled helplessly.

"Big brother Wuming, please tell sister-in-law Lian Zhu for me. I would now go do my seclusion training." After Qin Yu finished saying his farewell to Ao Wuming, he immediately left Wuming Dragon Mansion.

...

After leaving the Wuming Dragon Mansion, Qin Yu took a deep breath.

"It's about time for me to start. I cannot waste my time anymore. After this seclusion training is completed, my strength should be approaching the level of Immortal Emperors. The stability of the Black Hole could also be increased to the next level. At that time, even if I were to encounter a level seven Immortal Emperor, I should still be able to take them on."

Qin Yu looked toward the west.

"Fei Fei, Xiao Hei, we will meet again very soon." Said Qin Yu in his heart.

Greater Teleportation!

Not far away from the Hidden Emperor Star was a uncultivated and uninhabited planet. The morning of this uninhabited planet was hot enough to cause stones to split open. At night, it was cold air was like fog as it floated on the entire planet.

The fluctuations in the temperature have no effect to Qin Yu.

"Inhabited planets usually have a thick protection layer, it was almost impossible to clearly see the cosmic stars in the daytime. On the contrary, on these uninhabited planets, one could clearly see the cosmic stars."

Qin Yu gasped with admiration as he saw all those enormous celestial bodies that seemed as if he could grab them with outstretched hands.

He took out the Jiang Lan's Realm.

"Small, small, small!" Following Qin Yu's intention, that little green tower grew several million times smaller. As it was a Divine Artifact, changing its appearance was no difficulty. Qin Yu turned the Jiang Lan's realm into a little green speck.

Afterwards, the Jiang Lan Realm was placed into the deepest part of the planet.

With an intention, Qin Yu was in the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Within the first layer world of the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Qin Yu was standing high up in the air of the Jiang Lan's Realm's first layer world as he looked at the endless space.

"The Elemental Spirit Energy of this Jiang Lan's Realm needs to be taken from the outside world. That's a bit troublesome. However, I currently do not need to absorb Elemental Spirit Energy and only need to cultivate my soul." Qin Yu started to control the Jiang Lan's Realm to absorb Elemental Spirit Energy.

[TL: yes, I'm as confused as you are. He said he didn't need to absorb Elemental Spirit Energy and then started absorbing it...]

Right when Qin Yu just took control of the Jiang Lan's Realm...

"Bang!"

A strange sound came from all over the uninhabited planet that Qin Yu was on. The sound sounded like a water bottle being placed into the river and bubbling. Afterwards, on the surroundings of this uninhabited planet appeared something like an invisible vortex. All the Elemental Spirit Energy of the universe started getting absorbed by that invisible vortex.

The circulation of Elemental Spirit Energy in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was also very mixed up and chaotic.

However, from the moment when Qin Yu started to control the Jiang Lan's Realm, all the endless Elemental Spirit Energy of the Indigo Bay Star Field started to slowly flow toward the planet where Qin Yu was having his seclusion training at.

Water flows to lower places.

The interior of the Jiang Lan's Realm was hollow whereas the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realms was packed with Elemental Spirit Energy.

Therefore, Elemental Spirit Energy were constantly flowing into the Jiang Lan's Realm.

[TL: I'm pretty sure the water flows to lower places was not a good reference. It's more like the osmosis principle and not a higher or lower matter.]

...

"What's with this speed?" Feeling the absorption speed of the Jiang Lan's Realm, Qin Yu was overwhelmed with shock.

If the Elemental Spirit Energy absorption speed of a person cultivating is one.

Then the absorption speed of this Jiang Lan's Realm was over a hundred million by far!

Qin Yu forgot about one point.

Jiang Lan's Realm was considered to be a space. The speed of a space absorbing the Elemental Spirit Energy from another space; how could it be comparable with the Elemental Spirit Energy absorption speed of regular cultivators?

"Let's continue on like this."

Qin Yu sat cross-legged in the middle of the air and started to set his mind to begin training the . As for the Jiang Lan's Realm, it had been continuously absorbing the endless Elemental Spirit Energy of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Time slowly passed, the amount of Elemental Spirit Energy in the Jiang Lan's Realm continued to grow. As for Qin Yu, he was still cross-legged and motionless in the air...

[TL: I decided to change the name 3-in-9 Soul Refinement (三魂九炼) to Three Souls Nine Refinements because that's the direct translation and I also used baike to check if there's a next stage to 三魂九炼 and found out that's it's a stand-alone technique. There is no 6-in-9 Soul Refinement nor is there a 9-in-9 Soul Refinement. So there you go, I feel that Three Souls Nine Refinements would be better even though it sounds weirder. Anyways, also found a picture of Qin Yu and Li'er.

./baike/c0%3Dbaike92%2C5%2C5%2C92%2C30/sign= ]

Tens years in the Jiang Lan's Realm's first layer was a year in the outside world.

As Qin Yu continued to train without moving, time continued to slowly pass…

Chapter 50 – Achieving Success and Departing

On the surrounding of the nameless planet that Qin Yu was training on, an invisible vortex was continuously swallowing in the endless Elemental Spirit Energy for already fifteen years.

Within the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Qin Yu who had been sitting cross-legged in the air the whole time had finally opened his eyes. His gaze was even more profound and tranquil.

His soul energy dissolved into the world.

In a flash, Qin Yu had figured out how long he had been training.

"A hundred fifty years. Last time when I trained from the first layer of the Earthly Soul to the second layer took me a mere fifty years. However, this time when I trained from the second layer of the Earthly Soul to the third layer instead took me a whole hundred fifty years."

Qin Yu gasped in awe.

The time it took for him to train being longer than last time was something that Qin Yu had already anticipated. Afterall, the further one reaches, the longer it'll take to train. This was also the reason why many people reached Golden Immortal level from the Heavenly Immortal level very fast but their speed slows down over ten times when they tried to reach to the Mystic Immortal level from the Golden Immortal level.

[TL: this might be confusing. Mystic Immortal is the same as Immortal Emperor. I don't know why author have to give two terms.]

This hundred fifty years was merely a hundred fifty years within the first layer of the Jiang Lan's Realm.

In the outside world, only fifteen years had passed.

"My soul had already reached the third layer of the Eathly Soul, it is just a step away from the Heavenly Soul Realm. I should be able to once again absorb energy to train now." Qin yu adjusted his state a bit.

The time it took to train the soul was long whereas the time it takes to train one's power was short.

Especially for Qin Yu who had reached the Black Hole Realm. Regardless of what kind of energy it was, this Black Hole was able to absorb the energy and refine it. In the case where other trains, they would have to have extreme care about the purity of the energy but Qin Yu was different, he didn't have to care at all.

"Never had I attempted to use the Black Hole to its maximum power to train. Let's see how fast that'll be." Qin Yu's face showed a slight excitement.

Ever since the black hole was formed in his dantian, Qin Yu already knew that once the Black Hole tried to absorb energy at maximum power, it is going to be very frightening and fast. However, as to how fast it'll be, Qin Yu was uncertain.

Qin Yu closed his eyes, his awareness had completely entered his dantian's Black Hole.

Within Qin Yu's dantian.

The Black hole that had always been in an immobile state suddenly started to rotate. An astonishing engulfing energy started to fill the air from his dantian...

"Pfff!"

Qin Yu's whole body seemed to be surrounded by an invisible vortex. Countless Elemental Spirit Energy was being swallowed with an astonishing speed... in merely a moment!

Tornado.

The endless amount of Elemental Spirit Energy in the Jiang Lan's Realm had formed an enormous vortex as they frantically rush forth into Qin Yu's body. Its speed was numerous times faster than how ordinary people trained.

A million times faster? Ten million times faster?

No one knows.

"It's too fast, too fast." Qin Yu was clearly able to sense that his strength was increasing at a rate that's so fast that it would cause people to tremble.

Endless amount of Elemental Spirit Energy was rushing into the Black Hole in Qin Yu's dantian.

Although the amount of Elemental Spirit Energy was great, but after they were absorbed and refined by the Black Hole, they turned into only a small amount of energy as they entered the flour paste space and into that two or three meters wide small space that belonged to Qin Yu.

After a short while.

Qin Yu calmed himself. He carefully sensed his Elemental Spirit Energy absorption speed and suddenly found a very strange thing —

The speed at which his Black Hole swallows energy was precisely ten times the speed at which Jiang Lan's Realm swallows energy from the outside world. Qin Yu was the master of the Jiang Lan's Realm and therefore naturally knew very well about the absorption speed of the Jiang Lan's Realm.

"How could there be such a coincidence?" Qin Yu was puzzled.

"Furthermore, how come the Black Hole's absorption speed was even faster than Jiang Lan's Realm that's a spatial pocket?" Qin Yu grew even more puzzled.

Qin Yu thought about it for a long time but still didn't know why.

However, Qin Yu actually felt relieved.

"Last time when I reached the early stage Black Hole Realm from the late stage Dark Star Realm, I had consumed numerous Golden Immortal's Nascent Souls at once. I'm afraid that the energy required for the early stage Black Hole Realm to reach the mid stage Black Hole Realm would require even more energy. If I were to still rely on refining Golden Immortal's Nascent Souls, then I'd reckon that the Golden Immortal's Nascent Souls that's in the Blazing Profound Ring would not be enough."

Qin Yu had a slight smile on his face.

The Black Hole absorbing energy and refining them was something that Qin Yu didn't have to worry about in the slightest. All he needed was to put a little bit of his awareness into it to control it.

Currently, the speed at which the Black Hole absorbs Elemental Spirit Energy was not much slower than the speed at which Qin Yu refines Golden Immortal's Nascent Souls. Although the Elemental Spirit Energy is not as precious as Golden Immortal's Nascent Souls, its amount was enough to make up for the gap.

After approximately six hours.

Qin Yu felt a kind of pressure. The amount of energy within the Black Hole was too much. He was already reaching his limit to control it with his soul energy.

"It seems like the two to three meters area within that flour paste space had some kind of change." Qin Yu was able to sense that the energy on the other side was having a rapid change. After a short period of time —

An extremely large Golden Ring of Light flew out from the other side of the Black Hole Channel. When this Golden Ring of Light flew to a distance of three third of the Black Hole Channel, it stopped. Afterwards, the light of the Golden Ring of Light began to flicker and then mixed together and became one with the Black Hole. Like a circular hoop, it wrapped around the Black Hole.

Last time when Qin Yu reached the early stages of the Black Hole Realm, a Golden Ray of Light flew out to one third of the length of the Black Hole Channel. This time around, the Golden Ray of Light was much bigger and flew to two third of the distance of the Black Hole Channel.

"Two Golden Rings of Light signifies that it's the mid stage of the Black Hole Realm. I'd suspect that three Golden Rings of Light would be the late Black Hole Realm." Guessed Qin Yu in his mind.

Right at this moment, the golden lights from the two Golden Rings of Light started to mutually scatter. As the two Golden Ring of Lights' energies came into each other, their purity continued to increase. At the same time, the Black Hole was also slowly changing...

After a long while.

Everything returned to peace.

Qin Yu grasped his two fists and felt an unprecedented comfort. A hundred fifty years of seclusion training had allowed Qin Yu's body to reach a new level.

Even if Qin Yu didn't train, his Life Elemental Energy was still transforming his body nonstop.

"My body is now comparable to a level eight or nine Golden Immortal. This Life Elemental Energy is strange indeed. Not only does it possessed an endless amount of life force, it was also able to transform my body unceasingly." Qin Yu was puzzled about the Life Elemental Energy in his body.

Back when he was in the Mortal Realm,the 'Life Recovery Pill' he created through putting a slight amount of Life Elemental Energy was so strong that it could recover all the energy of a strong Loose Devil instantly.

After he arrived in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

That time when his Sword immortal Puppet was wounded by Green Blooded Sword Immortal, Zhi Bai, he used nine Top Quality Elemental Spirit Stones and was only able to recover ten percent of the injury. However, with merely a slight amount of Life Elemental Energy, the wound was completely recovered.

A slight amount of Life Elemental Energy gave a result that's ten times or more that of nine Top Quality Elemental Spirit Stones.

"What a miraculous energy." Qin Yu was very certain.

This Life Elemental Energy was something that surpassed Immortal Elemental Energy, Devil Elemental Energy and other energies at those level. Otherwise, it's effect cannot be as abnormal as it was. As for the Life Elemental Energy, it came from the mysterious Meteoric Tear.

Although he was the master of the Meteoric Tear, Qin Yu still only possessed a smattering of knowledge of the Meteoric Tear. Even when using it, Qin Yu only knew of the couple simplest functions.

Qin Yu stopped thinking and continued to control the Black Hole in his dantian to absorb the endless amount of Elemental Spirit Energy. Afterall, he had not yet reached the level that he cannot support.

Qin Yu continued to practice without moving.

Like before, the Jiang Lan's Realm still continued to form the Elemental Spirit Energy tornadu. After six whole hours later, Qin Yu finally felt pressure again. He should have attained the limit of his soul.

The six hours of training had caused the energy of the two Golden Rings of Light to become even more pure.

"I only needed six hours of training to reach the early stage Black Hole Realm to the mid stage Black Hole Realm. And now, I had trained for another six hours but only managed to make the mid stage Black Hole a bit more steady. The further one goes, the more energy is required."

Qin Yu took a stretch.

The twelve hours of Elemental Spirit Energy that he had absorbed was but a drop in the ocean for the Jiang Lan's Realm that had absorbed fifteen years of Elemental Spirit Energy from the outside.

The speed at which one space absorbs the Elemental Spirit Energy from another space was not something and people could compare unless that person also possessed a Black Hole like Qin Yu.

It was currently nighttime on the nameless planet that Qin Yu was on. Cold fog had filled the surface of the entire planet. In this type of environment, ordinary livings things was simply unable to survive. Likewise, this nameless planet also does not possess an Interstellar Conveying Array. Only experts that had reached the level of Golden Immortals could reach this planet.

On the surface that was covered with endless cold fog, a figure suddenly appeared.

His long black hair was fluttering. A youth in black walked out from the cold fog. In his hand was a little green tower. At this moment, the nameless planet's surrounding no longer had an invisible vortex. The Elemental Spirit Energy of the Indigo Bay Star Field had also returned to the chaotic state that it was before.

"Fifteen years."

Qin Yu looked all the enormous celestial bodies that filled the sky and had a slight smile on his face. "Although my current strength is still no match for people like Emperor Yu, it's still no problem if I only want to survive. Now is the time for me to find Xiao Hei and Fei Fei."

Qin Yu had currently reached the mid stage Black Hole Realm. His strength is close to that of a level eight or nine Golden Immortal.

After adding on the Blazing Profound Ring, Divine Sword Sky Piercer, Divine Armor Black Frozen Snow and his valiant body with the Life Elemental Energy, Qin Yu was now able to fight against a low level Immortal Emperor.

It was no longer like before when he fought against level one Immortal Emperor Sword Immortal, Yu Qingzi.

"Before I leave, I'll first go to brother Wuming and bid my farewell." Qin Yu executed the Greater Teleportation and arrived at the Hidden Emperor Star from the nameless planet.

Within the East Star City of the Hidden Emperor Star.

Within Meng Hong's manor. To Ao Wuming who had already reached the level of level seven Demon Emperor, a hundred years was but a flash. Although Ao Wuming might be considered to be a genius, he was nowhere close to a genius within a genius like Jun Luoyu.

The time it took for Ao Wuming to reach level seven Demon Emperor was still extremely long. This time, he came to the Hidden Emperor star to have fun, he would at the very minimum stay a couple hundred years.

Ao Wuming and Meng Hong were sitting in the manor drinking and chatting.

They chatted about a certain expert of the Immortal Realm, a certain woman of the Devil Realm, a certain famous Divine Beast of the Demon Realm. Their endless times had allowed them to waste time to their heart's content.

"Hey, Wuming, how long do you think Qin Yu's seclusion training would be?" Suddenly asked Meng Hong.

In every ten of their conversations, they would at the very least talk about Qin Yu five times. They talked about Qin Yu's mysteriousness, his weapons and so on. Once again, their conversations landed on Qin Yu. That's because, after all, they only have that many subjects to talk about.

"Regarding him, before he entered his seclusion training, he said it would not be over fifty years. It's just that it had only been fifteen years now. I reckon it'll take another dozen or twenty years before he would come out." Laughed Ao Wuming. He then grew puzzled and said. "Now that you mention it, it's strange indeed. The further down the path, the more time it takes to train. So why is it that Qin Yu said that this seclusion training would be shorter than the last?"

"Qin Yu had a special technique or he had already reached a level where he's about to break through last time around. It's not strange if he entered seclusion training this time around just to break through the wall." Meng Hong guessed.

"You're right, come, let's drink."

Ao Wuming's wine cup was toasted with Meng Hong's.

"Big brother Wuming." A clear and cold voice sounded from within the manor. However, this clear and cold voice contained joy within it.

Ao Wuming was stunned and immediately turned around to look.

"Brother Qin Yu." Ao Wuming was filled with shock.

Meng Hong also lifted his head up and looked toward Qin Yu with a astonished expression. "Brother Qin Yu, hasn't it only been fifteen years since you entered seclusion training? How come you're already out?"

Both Ao Wuming and Meng Hong was shocked that Qin Yu only entered seclusion training for fifteen years. How could they have imagined the existence of a type of Divine Artifact where the time flow within it was ten to one compared to the outside world?

"Fifteen years was all that I needed." Said Qin Yu while smiling.

"Qin Yu, your technique was most certainly strange. In normal circumstances, even I am unable to see through your strength. Only when you are fighting could I tell your level." Ao Wuming gasped in admiration.

Compared to before Qin Yu entered seclusion training, in normal circumstances, Ao Wuming really was unable to see through Qin Yu's strength unless Qin Yu decided to display it himself.

After all, Qin Yu's soul had assimilated into the Meteoric Tear and his power was within the Black Hole. Who would be able to discover it?

"Haha... big brother Wuming, one of the reason I came today was to see you and the second was to bid my farewell to you." Qin Yu directly said his purpose in coming.

"Farewell?" Ao Wuming was a slightly startled.

"Right, I am going to set off for the Demon Realm. I had already planned to go there since always. As of now, my condition had matured so it's about time for me to set off." Said Qin Yu while smiling.

"That's good too." Ao Wuming nodded, he smiled and said. "When you are on your way to the Demon Realm, if anyone were to make things difficult for you, feel free to send me a transmission. Within the Demon Realm, I your big brother still possess some capability."

As one of the Dual Emperors of the Dragon Clan, the Prince of the Dragon Clan, the future Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Clan, Ao Wuming's position within the Demon Realm was not something that required much thinking.

By the Interstellar Transformation Array of the Hidden Emperor Star.

Qin Yu, Ao Wuming and the rest were bidding farewell to each other.

Ao Wuming, Lin Zhu and Meng Hong were here to see Qin Yu off. After these couple people said some words of farewell him, only then did Qin Yu bid his farewell to his three close friends and entered the Interstellar Conveying Array.

"Big brother Wuming, sister-in-law Lian Zhu, brother Meng Hong, farewell."

Said Qin Yu while inside the Interstellar Conveying Array.

Soon after, the Interstellar Conveying Array shined with rays of light. As Qin Yu watched these rays of light, he knew that his journey to the Demon Realm had started. Would this journey be safe and sound?

After the rays of light dissipated, the Interstellar Conveying Array returned to its regular appearance. As for Qin Yu, he had already been delivered into the next planet.

"Let's go back." Ao Wuming had a slight disappointment and frustration on his face. Another one of his good brother had departed.

When Ao Wuming, Lian Zhu and Meng Hong left, they did not notice that a couple people of Golden Immortal strength took a couple casual glances at them. These people were precisely Emperor Yu's intelligence personell.

Not only Emperor Yu, at this moment, Blood Devil Emperor who had also been paying attention to Qin Yu and Ao Wuming also received information of Qin Yu's depart and, through the conveying array that Qin Yu entered, also obtained information as to where Qin Yu were sent to.

Chapter 51 – Two Emperors, Intercept and Kill

Indigo Bay Star Field. By the Interstellar Conveying Array of the Nine Dew Star, the core planet of the Dawn Dew Galaxy.

As the magnificent rays of light flashed past, a black clothed youngster appeared in this Interstellar Conveying Array. As the black clothed youngster appeared, more than ten people in the surrounding took a note of it.

"Sir, the target has arrived on the Nine Dew Star."

"Master, target arrived on the Nine Dew Star."

...

At about the same time, a couple people had already sent transmissions to their bosses and leaders. And this news had arrived at the final bosses, Emperor Yu, Xue Tianya and them.

On a planet of the Devil Realm that was close to the Indigo Bay Star Field.

A city of this planet was covered by boundless rain. Even its streets were damp. At this moment, majority of the cultivators were staying in their own residences.

A white clothed handsome man was walking on the street. He was lofty and unsullied like fireworks.

With his first step, the white clothed handsome man's hair reached all the way down to his buttocks.

With his second step, the white clothed handsome man's figure appeared somewhat thinner and shorter. His appearance turned to that of a white clothed handsome youngster.

With his third step, the white clothes on the white clothed handsome man turned red.

Blood Devil Emperor Xue Tianya had a habit. When he was truly prepared to kill a person, determined to win and was extremely serious, he would turn his white clothes into crimson colored. Regularly, Blood Devil Emperor wore white. Once his clothes turned red, it signals that he's about to cause a massacre!

"He had arrived on the Nine Dew Star?"

Xue Tianya was not anxious. With his power as the Blood Devil Emperor, he possessed troops on all of the major planets. Regardless of where Qin Yu was to go, he would still be discovered. That would only not hold true should Qin Yu use Greater Teleportation to flee.

However, Qin Yu evidently still didn't discover that he was being monitored.

"Father."

A figure suddenly appeared in front of Xue Tianya. It was the Devil Emperor, Xue Yi. "Father, for you to call me, is there anything that you need?" Seeing his own father turning into this sort of appearance, Devil Emperor Xue Yi was greatly shocked. "Father, you're actually wearing crimson colored clothes. With such a serious appearance, who are you planning to kill? You even changed your appearance?"

Xue Tianya lightly smiled and said. "Your enemy."

"My enemy? Who amongst my enemies would be deserving of father to dirty your hands and in such a serious manner?" Devil Emperor Xue Yi started to think about it carefully. The majority of his enemies were located within the Devil Realm. And those within the Devil Realm that were capable of making Xue Tianya so serious, he was unable to imagine any.

Xue Tianya's gaze shot toward the northwest direction. "The person who killed your disciple."

"Father, is it Qin Yu?" Xue Yi was surprised once again. He then looked at Xue Tianya solemnly. "Father, Qin Yu killed Nu. I must personally find him to seek revenge."

"Are you able to kill him?" Asked Xue Tianya.

Xue Yi stopped. He knew of Qin Yu's strength; it was far below his. However, Qin Yu not only possessed a Divine Armor, his internal body was also weird. He was unable to kill QIn Yu even after using all his power. And now that he had been inflicted with the Hidden Emperor's prohibition energy, his strength was only half of what it was; how could he possibly be able to kill Qin Yu?

"Furthermore, this matter is of great importance. No matter what, I would still have to personally undertake this task because... if it were to become a failure, then it'll be a great loss for us father and son. I absolutely cannot permit failure." Xue Tianya's voice was serene and calm. However, his lips were slightly pursed and his eyes possessed an unwavering determination.

Xue Yi heard Xue Tianya's determination and could only nod. "Father, when are you going to do it?"

"After a while." Said Xue Tianya with a smile. "Qin Yu is currently coming and going from one planet to another. In this kind of situation, it'll be hard for me to kill him. Therefore... I would attack when he stopped in a certain planet to rest."

"Well then, Xue Yi, you can return and continue training. In the period that I'm gone, if you have anything, just go and find your martial uncle." Said Xue Tianya.

"Yes. Father." Xue Yi nodded.

Xue Tianya faintly smiled. He then continued to slowly walk through the street under the rain.

...

Indigo Bay Star Field, Silver String Galaxy. In the headquarters of the Jade Sword Sect of the Red Leaf Star.

In a certain guest room of the Jade Sword Sect.

Three individuals were sitting cross-legged. Of these three individuals, one of them was the Sect Master of the Jade Sword Sect, Yu Qingzi. As for the other two... one of them was the level seven Immortal Emperor, Green Blooded Sword Immortal, Zhi Bai.

As for the last person, he was sitting on the host seat of the guest room, it was Emperor Yu who's wearing a purple gown.

"Yu Qingzi, you may excuse us first." Said Zhi Bai to Yu Qingzi with a smile.

"Yes. Your Majesty, this subordinate shall take his leave first." Yu Qingzi bowed to Emperor Yu extremely tactfully. He then quietly left this guest room.

After walking out to the main hall, Yu Qingzi had a puzzled expression. "His Majesty actually came to my place personally; even Immortal Emperor Zhi Bai came. Seems like there's going to be an extraordinary event that's about to occur."

Yu Qingzi was merely a bottom level gap filler amongst the 'Thirty Six Lords.'

However, Green Blooded Sword Immortal Zhi Bai was one of the strongest amongst Emperor Yu's 'Eighteen Emperors.' For Emperor Yu and Zhi Bai to appear here at the same time, what's about to happen was something that anyone could imagine.

Inside the guest room.

"Your Majesty, you sure it's enough for you to go alone? How about I join Your Majesty? That Qin Yu's had a very strange defense, trying to kill him within a short period of time is somewhat hard."

Even now, Immortal Emperor Zhi Bai still didn't know that what had took on two of his sword rays on the Blue Fire Star was the Sword Immortal Puppet. He had always believed that it was Qin Yu himself.

"No need, even if he possessed two Divine Armors, I still have certainty that I can kill him." Emperor Yu laughed indifferently.

Zhi Bai was shocked from the bottom of his heart.

Even Zhi Bai did not know exactly how strong Emperor Yu was. However, as Emperor Yu was able to become one of the three big players of the Immortal Realm, he would most certainly have some powerful trump cards.

"Then I shall await Your Majesty's good news from the Red Leaf Star." Said Zhi Bai with a smile.

"Zhi Bai, rest assured. As long as I manage to obtain the Ten Thousand Beast Atlas and open the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beast Atlas, my strength would definitely surpass the other two sides and I shall become the absolute number one power of the Immortal Realm. Also, after obtaining the Bewitching God Painting, not only me, you too would benefit from it." Said Emperor Yu while smiling. "I am certain that in the future when undergoing the Divine Tribulation, it would also be of help."

When Zhi Bai thought of the Bewitching God Painting, he also displayed a slight yearning expression on his face.

Since ancient times, the only master of the Bewitching God Painting was only Immortal Emperor Ni Yang. Originally, Immortal Emperor Ni Yang was only an ordinary Immortal Emperor. However, after he obtained the Bewitching God Painting, he experienced a reversal of fortune. Not only did his strength advance by leaps and bounds, he also came to possess powerful Divine Artifacts and finally became the most powerful person in the Immortal Realm. Even Emperor Yu, Mystic Emperor and the rest could not help but acknowledge that they were inferior to Immortal Emperor Ni Yang.

The Bewitching God Painting was known as the number one treasure of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Its preciousness was without doubt.

"Your Majesty, when are you going to attack?" Asked Zhi Bai.

Emperor Yu smiled and said. "Currently, that Qin Yu had only arrived at the borders of the Indigo Bay Star Field. I had already ordered people to have the Interstellar Conveying Array of the border planet, the Blue Snow Star, be stopped temporarily and tell the people that it required a day of maintenance. Once he reached that place, I reckon that Qin Yu would have to stop and rest for some period of time."

"Your Majesty's move is truly brilliant." Zhi Bai also had a smile on his face.

Emperor Yu had planned exceptionally well.

In the Cosmic Space, the space between two planets were generally not very dangerous. However, the distance between two galaxies were comparatively far and the dangers were also comparatively large. As for two star fields... their distance was extremely far apart. They were so far apart that there are frightening Cosmic Energies like the Cosmic Fragmentary Golden Stream and such existing between them.

Furthermore, a distance that far away, a distance of two star fields, if one were to try to use Greater Teleportation to cross that distance, then who knows how many times one would have to execute Greater Teleportation. Furthermore, one might even encounter Cosmic Energies on the way.

Therefore, Emperor Yu was convinced that there was more than ninety percent chance that Qin Yu would stay on the Blue Snow Star to rest for a day.

[TL: raws actually wrote Blue Snow Planet. In chinese, planets are known as stars or celestial bodies. For example Mars is known as Fire Star. Therefore, I believe some of the earlier translators and myself included prefer to call it Star as opposed to planet. However, for some reason IET decided to write Blue Snow Planet this time around and then wrote it as Blue Snow Star the next couple sentences. I took liberty to change it to Blue Snow Star for consistency and also because I prefer star for some reason...]

The border planet of the Indigo Bay Star Field, Blue Snow Star.

As the border planet of the Indigo Bay Star Field, the flow of people through the Blue Snow Star was so immense to the extent that it even surpassed the Hidden Emperor Star.

The size of the planet was equally large. It was comparable to top notch planets like the Hidden Emperor Star and the Blue Flame Star.

At the Interstellar Conveying Array of the Blue Snow Star.

"My apology, the two Interstellar Conveying Arrays to the Immortal Realm needed to undergo maintenance today. If you are to take these Interstellar Conveying Arrays, please come back tomorrow."

Said a Golden Immortal that worked for the management of the Interstellar Conveying Arrays respectfully.

"So truly unlucky." Said Qin Yu helplessly.

He looked toward the two largest Interstellar Conveying Arrays; they were currently being carefully serviced by five or six Golden Immortals. These two Interstellar Conveying Arrays are able to transport a person from the border of the Indigo Bay Star Field to the Immortal Realm. As its functions are so exceptional, the crystals and arrays that it had was complex to the extreme. It required maintenance every year or two. As for today, it just happened to be the day of maintenance.

"Forget about it, one or two days of delay is not going to make a difference. Using Greater Teleportation to teleport to pass through the borders of two great star fields? That I still don't have the ability to do."

Qin Yu turned around and walked away from the Interstellar Conveying Arrays and started to fly toward the biggest city of the Blue Snow Star.

Since he couldn't leave for now, he decided to travel around and stroll the streets of the Blue Snow Star.

Within the Jade Sword Sect of the Red Left Star.

"Good, Qin Yu has already arrived on the Blue Snow Star. Just as I have predicted, he has already entered the Blue Snow Star city." Emperor Yu's face was filled with smile. Everything was within his calculations.

As he said those words, Emperor Yu had already stood up. His purple gown had turned into a blue gown. Even his figure and appearance had changed.

In a flash, Emperor Yu whose appearance gave people a favorable impression had turned into a robust and grim man in blue. His eyes were terrifying like thunder and lightning. With such an appearance, it was truly had for others to imagine that he was Emperor Yu!

"Your Majesty, you're going to kill Qin Yu, why did you change your appearance? Is there a need to fear for that Qin Yu?" Seeing the sight in front of him, Zhi Bai grew puzzled.

Emperor Yu shook his head, smiled and said. "Zhi Bai, you're lacking understanding here. Although this Qin Yu is no stronger than an ordinary person, he has many people standing behind him."

"Oh?" Zhi Bai was slightly startled.

"For example, the Prince of the Dragon Clan, Ao Wuming who has an extremely friendly relations with Qin Yu. In the future, Ao Wuming will become the Dragon Emperor. Even now, Ao Wuming is no weaker than me in both strength and status." Said Emperor Yu.

Zhi Bai nodded. Even when he fought Ao Wuming together with Xue Yileng, the gap between them was still extremely large. One can very well imagine how strong Ao Wuming was.

"Other than Ao Wuming, there are several other people behind Qin Yu. For example Jiang Yan who has a pretty good relationship with him. If Jiang Yan were to find out that I killed Qin Yu, based on how pampered she is by granny Yin Hua, then maybe granny Yin Hua would really set out against us." Emperor Yu had a slight helpless expression.

Granny Yin Hua, this abnormal super expert; he had never heard of her in the past. It was only recently that he found out about her.

Emperor Yu was very certain that the gap between him and granny Yin Hua was exceptionally large.

It was so much that... he believed granny Yin Hua ought to be a super expert who had undergone the Divine Tribulation and was soon to depart to the Divine Realm.

"Other than Ao Wuming and the potential granny Yin Hua, there's also his sect." Emperor Yu had a expression filled with suspicion.

Zhi Bai also couldn't refrain from nodding.

"Right." Zhi Bai also had a expression filled with suspicion. "This Qin Yu's sect is very strange. They surpassed the level of Golden Immortals but were able to easily appear in the Mortal Realm. There's also that legendary 'Uncle Lan.' We're not even certain if the news transmitted over by Hua Yan is true or not. Unfortunately, he's now dead."

According to the information that Hua Yan transmitted over, both Emperor Yu and Zhi Bai were suspicious of the sect that stood behind Qin Yu.

Qin Yu, Lan Feng, and Uncle Lan. They are the people who were recently exposed from this mysterious sect. Qin Yu's strength wasn't strong. Lan Feng was at the very least a high level Golden Immortal. As for Uncle Lan, his strength was even stronger. How did these people arrive in the Mortal Realm?

"Whether it's those on the surface or the sect that stands behind Qin Yu, I don't want to invite troubles from either of them. You also know that Qin Yu possessed an outstanding defense. Killing him is a bit hard so I don't wish for him to transmit the fact that I killed him before he died." Emperor Yu slightly smiled.

"This this subordinate will quietly wait for the beautiful news that Your Majesty will bring." Zhi Bai cupped his hand respectfully.

Emperor Yu nodded, he then disappeared from the guest room.

Not only Emperor Yu, Xue Tianya who had also had people continuously monitor Qin Yu had also received news that Qin Yu had stopped on the Blue Snow Star. He also immediately rushed off to the Blue Snow Star.

On the streets of the Blue Snow Star.

Qin Yu was casually walking on the streets.

The pavement of this street was composed of black square-shaped rocks. In the horizontal direction, there are six square-shaped rocks side by side. In the vertical direction, the rocks are about four meters long. The extremely large square-shaped rocks were laid on the ground in rows of six... causing the street to be extremely orderly.

Qin Yu walked very comfortably.

"This Blue Snow Star's composition is extremely well-knit. There aren't even any street vendors on the street; it's only shops, one after another. They appear to be very symmetric and well regulated." Qin Yu who was looking around had come up his own evaluation.

As the main planet of the borders, the amount of people on the Blue Snow Star was undoubtedly immense. Thus, the planet was also bustling. On the streets were numerous groups. Experts of all Realms were clearly visible everywhere...

"Golden Immortal and Devil Kings are present everywhere. There's also a Mystic Immortal." Qin Yu's sensitive Immortal Awareness was currently checking out the strength of the people around him. Suddenly, his body slightly trembled.

He saw an individual.

A red clothed youngster. His long black hair was all the way down to his buttocks. He had an awfully cold appearance.

"His strength was even more powerful than White Haired Blood Devil, Xue Yileng." Qin Yu's heart trembled. "Level eight Devil Emperor? There's only that many experts of his level in the Devil Realm, who is he?"

The red clothed youngster appeared to have not taken note of Qin Yu. However, he was unceasingly advancing toward Qin Yu. That's because he was walking toward the opposite direction of Qin Yu. Thus, the distance between the two was getting closer at a rapid speed…

Chapter 52 – Disappeared

Qin Yu's focus was raised to the extreme. He was able to counterattack at any given moment.

Although his gaze was not on that red haired youngster, his Immortal Awareness was spread out. Everything was within his observation. Against a level eight Devil Emperor, Qin Yu didn't dare to slack off, even the slightest.

[TL: this is not a mistranslation, IET wrote red haired youngster. I think he meant red clothed.]

"Who is he? Is he the Black Devil Emperor, Asura Devil Emperor or could he be that Xue Tianya?" Qin Yu was unable to determine who exactly the person in front of him was. Although, with his sensitive Immortal Awareness, he managed to barely determine that the opposing party's strength was higher than Xue Yileng, but he was unable to determine what type of energy the opposing party practices.

At that moment, the two were only ten square-shaped rocks apart.

As the distance continued to decrease, the red haired youngster's gaze started getting colder. His gaze was only looking at the front and not toward Qin Yu who was in front and a bit towards his side. His pace was neither fast nor slow.

"I have never seen the Asura Devil Emperor or the Black Devil Emperor before. They too have never seen me before either. Thus, they shouldn't be planning to harm me." Qin Yu continued to analyse in his heart. "Ah, could it be that Xue Yi told Xue Tianya that I possessed a Divine Sword and two Divine Armors? Does this Xue Tianya have the intention to kill me and steal my treasures?" Guessed Qin Yu.

In a short while, Qin Yu came to a conclusion that it was very much possible.

One Divine Sword and two Divine Armors were enough to make any level eight Devil Emperor turn green with envy.

"I merely have a single Divine Armor, that Xue Yi must have thought that the Sword Immortal Puppet also has a Divine Armor since it has such a strong defense. Sigh, I truly feel a bit wronged. Seems like this turn of events is far from good."

Qin Yu continued to walk unhurriedly, he didn't dare to run away immediately.

After all, whether the opposing party is here for him was still uncertain.

However, because he's a level eight Devil Emperor, Qin Yu was certain that he's a threat to his safety.

Back then, a level six Devil Emperor's energy were transmitted into his body and almost collapsed the Black Hole. Although Qin Yu's strength had increased, but the opponent was a level eight Devil Emperor.

...

Qin Yu was currently imagining all kinds of things. Like him, Xue Tianya's heart was also stirred up.

No matter how cultivated he was, when confronted with the Divine Armor, Black Frozen Snow, Ten Thousand Beast Atlas and the most important Bewitching God Painting, he was still unable to keep calm.

"Qin Yu? I reckon that you would still not know who killed you even after death. And you still had the leisure to take a stroll down the street?"

Xue Tianya sneered in his heart. His Devil Awareness had already observed the surroundings carefully. Even if he didn't look at Qin Yu with his eyes, he was able to clearly see Qin Yu's expression and movements.

Even now, Xue Tianya still believed that Qin Yu was unable to recognize him.

Xue Tianya was not mistaken. After all, in order to discover someone, one's soul must be stronger than the counterpart's. Qin Yu's soul was a whole realm weaker than Xue Tianya's. Logically, he was absolutely unable to discover him.

Unfortunately... the Meteoric Tear had caused Qin Yu's soul to become even more unite with the heaven and earth. It had also caused Qin Yu's soul to become even more sensitive. Thus, even it was a level eight Devil Emperor, Qin Yu was still able to vaguely sense it.

...

The distance between the two once again grew closer, they were only six square-shaped rocks apart.

Xue Tianya still haven't attack yet, this distance is not the best distance for him to use his certain kill move. The optimal distance for his certain kill move to display the strongest power was around ten meters.

Five square-shaped rocks.

Four square-shaped rocks.

...

The distance between the two continued to grow closer.

Xue Tianya began to store up the energy from his body. It had already condensed enough and was ready to explode. All he needed right now was to reach the optimal distance. He was confident that he would kill Qin Yu with a single move!

The strongest move, the most powerful power!

...

Qin Yu felt an repressive sensation. That repressive feeling had completely filled Qin Yu's heart. His back was giving off cold sweat. However, before those cold sweat soak through his clothes, Qin Yu had already evaporated them with his power.

Tension.

As the two grew closer, Qin Yu began to get more and more nervous.

The ice cold red haired youngster suddenly turned around and looked at Qin Yu. Like a sharp arrow, that gaze shot through Qin Yu's heart. Qin Yu immediately started to feel as if his heart was twitching.

Not good!

He really was here to kill me.

Qin Yu immediately pulled his eyes back. With this single glance, Qin Yu was absolutely certain that this mysterious level eight Devil Emperor was here to kill him.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"...

Suddenly strong sounding footsteps echoed from the street. Those footsteps caused all the people on the street to feel a burst of distraction and anxiety. Even Xue Tianya who had reached the best state to attack was affected.

Qin Yu's soul had assimilated with the Meteoric Tear and wasn't affected greatly by the footsteps.

His Immortal Awareness automatically started to examine the location behind him that the footsteps sounded from.

He saw a blue clothed robust man walking over step by step. As he feet stepped on the street, utterly different sounds were being sounded.

This man was Emperor Yu.

"Never had I expected that this Xue Tianya would be a step before me." Right when Emperor Yu rushed to the Blue Snow Star and arrived at where Qin Yu was at, he discovered a man whose strength was equally matched as his. At the same time, he also sensed the characteristic aura of that person, the aura of a Blood Devil Path practitioner.

Level eight Devil Emperor, Blood Devil Path practitioner.

Other than Blood Devil Emperor Xue Tianya, who else would that be?

"It's you." Xue Tianya looked toward Emperor Yu and sent a voice transmission via his Devil Awareness. "Emperor Yu, your 'Sounds of Nature Technique' is more and more powerful. Those footsteps echoed at right when I stored my maximum power and caused me to be unable to execute my move perfectly."

Said Xue Tianya via voice transmission. It was clear that he didn't want Qin Yu to know that this blue clothed robust man was Emperor Yu.

"Xue Tianya, your speed is pretty fast too. You actually managed to arrive here this fast." Said Emperor Yu via voice transmission.

Both Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya had a tacit understanding of each other. They both pointed out the identity of the other person. It was evident that they were both secretly warning the other person to: 'Do not leak my own identity, else both of our identity would be known to Qin Yu.'

Both Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya knew that Qin yu had some powerful individuals standing behind him.

They didn't want troubles, thus that's why they both took the same action and changed their appearance to hide their identity.

...

"Another expert. An Immortal that's even stronger than Green Blooded Sword Immortal, he should be a level eight Immortal Emperor." Qin Yu felt a bitter pain in his heart. However, he didn't dare to move at all.

Emperor Yu was behind him whereas Xue Tianya was in front. They surrounded Qin Yu completely.

Two two individuals had completed their preparations at the same time. They are able to throw out a very strong strike at any given time.

Qin Yu feared that if he were to move, then these two great experts would attack him together. Although his defense was strong, but if he was to be matched with joined attacks from these two super experts, then he too was without a way out.

Qin Yu's forehead started to sweat cold bullets.

At this moment, Qin Yu didn't even bother to pretend anymore. That's because even since Emperor Yu used the Sounds of Nature Technique, Xue Tianya had also stopped hiding his intentions.

...

Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya stood on opposite sides. In the middle of them was Qin Yu.

Neither of the two had certainty that they could repel the other and kill Qin Yu. As of now, all of the cultivators on the street had sensed the terrible repressive sensation and immediately began to flee at a rapid speed.

"Fair competition." Said Emperor Yu via voice transmission.

"Whoever managed to snatch it owns it." Said Xue Tianya via voice transmission.

The two of them gaze at each other. Neither of them looked at Qin Yu. However, Qin Yu still didn't dare to move.

"Boom!" "Boom!"

Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya suddenly started to burst with a terrible energy. One of them was purple whereas the other was crimson. With them as the center, these two power frantically spread in all directions.

Wherever the energy passed, the streets started to crack in succession. Countless buildings collapsed and turned into crushed rocks. The countless cultivators had all directly exploded. Even their Nascent Souls exploded...

In an area of about ten thousand meters wide.

Within this ten thousand meters area, it was a deathly quietness. As for the outside of this ten thousand meters area, not even a regular cultivator was harmed in the slightest. It was evident that both Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya had extremely exceptional control over their energies.

This area of ten thousand meters was more or less sufficient for the two to go all out.

"Two freaks. They're much stronger than Xue Yileng and Zhi Bai." Qin Yu who stood in the middle had an unspeaking bitter suffering. The energies from earlier did not have a large effect on him.

Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya also knew that Qin Yu would not die so easily.

"Who are you two?"

Qin Yu turned his body sideways. He looked at the Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya to his sides and asked. At this moment, he also cannot continue to pretend that he had not discovered the other two individuals.

The blue clothed robust man and the red haired youngster didn't bother to look at Qin Yu at all.

"Humph, you two can stay here and glare at each other. I have no time to waste with you." Said Qin Yu brightly. He then immediately flew to the sky.

When Qin Yu spoke, these two individuals did not bother to look at him at all. However, when he moved, both of them started to attack!

"Swoosh!" A mystic ice short sword was suddenly shot out from the red haired youngster's hands toward Qin Yu. In midflight, that mystic ice short sword turned from a transparent color to crimson.

"Boom!" An enormous hammer came crashing down on Qin Yu's head.

However... as Qin Yu was flying toward the sky, he immediately turned around and started to rush toward the underground. Qin Yu had never believed that he would be able to escape so easily; thus, he had already decided to do that.

The short sword that had already turned crimson suddenly collided with the enormous hammer —

"Trying to flee?" The blue clothed robust man had a slight expression of disdain on his face.

"Qin Yu, there are not many people that can run away from this Thunder Hammer Immortal Emperor." The blue clothed robust man's voice resounded through the whole Blue Snow Star.

"Thunder Hammer, Qin Yu's little life belongs to I, the Ice Sword Devil Emperor. No one can snatch him from me." Another ice-cold voice resounded.

While their voices were still resounding in the heaven and earth, the two speakers had already disappeared. Qin Yu rushed into the underground to escape and these two speakers had already chased after him.

In the depths of the Blue Snow Star's underground. Within the endless blazing lava.

Qin Yu was once again surrounded by these two men.

"Sirs, you are the Thunder Hammer Immortal Emperor and the Ice Sword Devil Emperor, correct?" Qin Yu had no alternative other than stopping. He no longer tried to run. "I believe I do not have neither wronged either of you nor do am I your enemy."

At this moment, Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya didn't want to speak any more. The identity that announced earlier was only a disguise.

At this moment, Qin Yu felt helpless.

These two experts that proclaimed themselves to be the Thunder Hammer Immortal Emperor and the Ice Sword Devil Emperor had already launched their own 'domains.' Although it seemed that the space was still stable, but Qin Yu knew that if he were to wink, then he'll be dead.

Hide in the Qingyu Immortal Mansion?

Even Xue Yileng managed to discover the Qingyu Immortal Mansion and was even able to break through it after some time, then these two men who are even stronger than Xue Yileng was without mention.

Hide in the Jiang Lan's Realm?

Qin Yu had a plan. However, this was his final trump card. Qin Yu feared that the object that the Jiang Lan's Realm would transformed into would be seen through by these two great experts.

Once it was seen through, even if Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya were to be unable to break through Jiang Lan's Realm to catch Qin Yu, but they can also place the Jiang Lan's Realm in some sort of big array formation so that Qin Yu would be unable to escape when he comes out.

Thus, unless it's the final moment, Qin Yu still didn't want to escape into the Jiang Lan's Realm.

"He who strike first gains the upper hand." Right after he intercepted Qin Yu, Emperor Yu immediately started attacking.

"Boom!"

A large hammer flickering with thunder suddenly appeared beside Qin Yu and came smashing at him ruthlessly. Qin Yu immediately evaded it at a rapid speed. Xue Tianya who saw this scene also grew anxious.

"Fuck it all, I'm going all out." Qin Yu clenched his teeth.

That large hammer flickering with thunder carried with it an endless amount of power as it ruthlessly smashed onto Qin Yu's body. With a kacha sound, Qin Yu's chest was knocked inwards.

"Pfff!" Blood spurted out. Qin Yu powerlessly fell to one side.

Emperor Yu's eyes shined. "No matter how strong your defense are, against such a pure power attack, the Nascent Soul in your body was certain to have received a severe jolt and got seriously injured."

Against a pure power attack, even if one possessed the defense of a Divine Armor, there's still a lot of the power that would penetrate into the body.

Immediately after, Emperor Yu started to attack once again.

While Qin Yu was injured, he planned to take his life.

"In your dreams." How would Xue Tianya possibly allow Emperor Yu to kill Qin Yu and steal his treasures?

There's the Bewitching God Painting.

For the Bewitching God Painting, Xue Tianya was willing to burst out with his strongest fighting strength and spare nothing to kill Emperor Yu!

...

Blue Snow Star was filled with silence.

Suddenly —

"Boom!" The ground suddenly exploded and was split open. A thick and red ray of light rushed out from the ground. Soon, one by one, more rays continued to shoot out from the ground.

Chaos ensued.

Not only was there bloody red rays of light, there's also endless blue electric rays. The red rays of light and the blue rays of light were shot out continuously, they turned into dragons as they spread through the Blue Snow Star.

In a blink of an eye, a quarter of the Blue Snow Star's ground was completely ruined.

Not only the grounds, even the crust of the planet had received an equal amount of destruction. It was so much that lava had started to come out to the ground. It was a scene of destruction.

Numerous cultivators shivered in their heart as they saw this scene.

"Who exactly is it that's fighting underground?" Each and every one of the cultivators had a shocked expression. Once this fighting spread to them, they would undoubtedly die.

And at this moment underground.

After Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya determined that Qin Yu was seriously injured, they recklessly wanted to be the first one to snatch away Qin Yu. Thus, they burst into an unprecedented battle.

Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas and the Bewitching God Painting's charm caused the two great experts to display their trump cards and finishing moves one by one.

Space distortion!

Within the distorted space of the battle, the lava was met with lightning and turned into vapor and then frozen into ice chunks. All kinds of chaotic energies were continuously fluctuating.

Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya were frantically trying to kill each other.

They both wanted to obtain the Bewitching God Painting. For the Bewitching God Painting, the two men had employed their trump cards one by one. Their energies frantically wreak havoc.

While the two battled, they were also paying attention to Qin Yu. They were confident that Qin Yu cannot escape under their gaze.

"This hammer strike was truly powerful. Fortunately it didn't struck my stomach." Qin Yu was at the corner of the distorted space. Although the hammer strike earlier was very powerful, Qin Yu's Life Elemental Energy's restoration speed was also rapid.

"The Immortal Awareness and Devil Awareness of the two were all paying attention to me. It was impossible to dodge such frantic energies. There's no other option, I can only use my final move." Qin Yu finally came to a decision.

As Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya continued to battle, an frantic energy that their battle birthed forth was spread toward Qin Yu. Qin Yu was struck 'gone' by this energy.

That's right, when this energy struck Qin Yu's body, Qin Yu 'disappeared.'

Both Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya stopped their fighting. They started to frantically spread out their Immortal and Devil Awareness. In a moment, they covered the whole Blue Snow Star and even the planets surrounding the Blue Snow Star.

"How did he disappear?" Emperor Yu's expression changed. "That's right, Qingyu Immortal Mansion."

Xue Tianya also came to the same conclusion. "He have the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. Qingyu Immortal Mansion definitely became someone and concealed itself." Xue Tianya's long hair fluttered. His spirited gaze looked through every inch of the surroundings. His Devil Awareness was also carefully sweeping through each and every substance.

The frantic energies and lavas started to spiral around Xue Tianya and Emperor Yu. However, it was unable to approach either of them.

Chapter 53 – Latent Cultivation Transformation

Right away, Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya came to a conclusion that Qin Yu was hiding in the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. Afterall, in the situation earlier where the space was distorted, it was utterly impossible for one to flee by using Greater Teleportation.

In the depths of the Blue Snow Star's underground.

Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya were standing in the middle of the lava. The roaring lava was only able to approach them an inch at most. Whether it's the clothes or the fluttering long hair, the lava was unable to approach them in the slightest.

These two men stood motionless.

They used their Immortal and Devil Awareness to carefully search through each and every corner, every mountain, every stone, every sand, every dust and even every speck within the vapor.

...

At the beginning, Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya were very calm. They didn't believe that a person who haven't even reached the emperor level could escape. They were carefully inspecting everything and had complete confidence that they could catch Qin Yu.

However, after half a day, Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya both had worried expressions.

After a whole day!

"Disappeared." Emperor Yu's face was filled with an astonished expression. He looked at Xue Tianya who was next to him. "Xue Tianya, did you manage to discover it?"

Xue Tianya turned around and looked at Emperor Yu. "No. Feng Yu, had it not been for the fact that you disturbed me, I would've already killed Qin Yu." Xue Tianya's words contained a slight anger.

Bewitching God Painting and the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas was already within his grasp. However, because of Emperor Yu, he didn't manage to obtain them successfully.

Emperor Yu gave a cold humph.

He had already dispatched people to monitor Qin Yu back when he was still on the Maple Moon Star. Amongst all the top players of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, he was certainly the first to discover Qin Yu. If one were to compare the bitterness one felt in one's heart, then Emperor Yu felt the most bitterness.

"Xue Tianya, treasures at the level of the Bewitching God Painting and the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas aren't something that are so easily obtainable. Only by working together and catching Qin Yu would we have the hope to obtain the Bewitching God Painting and the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas."

Hearing Emperor Yu's words, Xue Tianya frowned. He then nodded and said. "However, how do we find him?"

Emperor Yu slightly laughed. He said "Rest assured, in the earlier circumstances, it was impossible for Qin Yu to escape using Great Teleportation. The only method that he had was to enter the Qingyu Immortal Mansion."

Xue Tianya nodded in approval.

"As for the illusion barrier of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, I have experienced it before back when Immortal Emperor Ni Yang was still alive. Even though it's considered to be profound, it should still not be possible for it to escape my detection..."

"But we still haven't discovered it." Xue Tianya interrupted.

Emperor Yu nodded. He said solemnly "That's right, we both carefully searched for it but still didn't discover anything. Then there's only one possibility – Emperor Ni Yang had improved the illusion barrier."

"True, that is the only possible justification." Said Xue Tianya in agreement.

How could Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya possibly imagine that Qin Yu possessed a spatial pocket type Divine Artifact that even people could enter. After all, even Emperor Yu had never encountered nor heard of such a Divine Artifact before.

They never believed that Qin Yu would obtain such an extraordinary Divine Artifact.

"Even if the illusion barrier was improved and we cannot find it, one thing is absolutely certain – that Qin Yu is certainly still within our surroundings." Emperor Yu deduced.

Xue Tianya's eyes shined.

At about the same moment, Xue Tianya and Emperor Yu both released their respective 'domain.' All the lava and ores within several hundred miles from them started to tremble. They are already within the 'domains' of the two great experts.

"Buzz!"

Even the tiniest speck of lava was destroyed into nothingness. Even the hardest ore were jolted into nothingness.

If amongst those materials was the object that the Qingyu Immortal Mansion had turned into, then it would absolutely not be destroyed. They were not investigating but rather using the method of exclusion. Within a twinkling of an eye, the area several hundred miles surrounding them had turned practically into nothingness. All that remained was a very small ore.

"There's one." Emperor Yu flipped his hand and the ore that was not shocked into nothingness was toward him.

"Mine."

Xue Tianya noticed the extremely rigid rock at almost exactly the same moment. He also dispatched a claw like energy to capture that ore. The two energies grabbed the ore at the same time.

They were fighting over the ore.

"Bang!" The little ore that was being fought and pulled by two different energies bursted open.

"So it really was a sulfer rock." Emperor Yu sighed and smiled.

Xue Tianya also had a self mocking smile.

A sulfer rock. However they had thought that the sulfer rock was what Qingyu Immortal Mansion had turned into. What had just happened had shown them that it cannot be the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. The great Qingyu Immortal Mansion of Immortal Emperor Ni Yang, how could it possibly be this easily broken?

"Xue Tianya, farewell." Said Emperor Yu as he cupped his hands respectfully.

Xue Tianya replied indifferently. "Farewell."

The two turned into two rays of light at the same time and was shot out from the underground. While they left the underground, neither of them left the Blue Snow Star. That's because the two of them were certain that Qin Yu was hiding at a certain corner of the Blue Snow Star. The two super experts both stayed at the Blue Snow Star. Their Immortal Awareness and Devil Awareness had also completely covered the Blue Snow Star. They continued it without stopping for even a moment.

Once Qin Yu come out from the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, these two men would certainly discover him.

The lava came spraying out from the cracked open grounds. Many of them even directly rushed into the rivers. Finally, they turned into ice-cold rocks. As for the Qin Yu's Jiang Lan's Realm, it had turned into a drop of lava and subsequently flowed into the river.

Following the movement of the river, Qin Yu's Jiang Lan's Realm turned into an ordinary speck of sand and sank to the bottom of the river.

Last time, Qin Yu's Qingyu Immortal Mansion was discovered by the level seven Devil Emperor, the White Haired Blood Devil, Xue Yileng. That was because the speck that the Qingyu Immortal Mansion turned into did not rupture under Xue Yileng's explosive energy nor was it mobile. That's how Xue Yileng managed to discover it as being unusual.

However this time around, Qin Yu turned the Jiang Lan's Realm to become the same as the lava. It followed the lava and was spurt out the ground and into the rivers. As for Xue Tianya and Emperor Yu, they only started to search using their explosive domains after a whole day. By that time, Qin Yu's Jiang Lan's Realm was already at the bottom of the river.

Within the first layer space of the Jiang Lan's Realm.

The ground of Jiang Lan's Realm was filled with boundless soil. Because of the ample amount of Elemental Spirit Energy, plants and flowers began to grow on the soil on the ground filling it with boundless life force.

Qin Yu was currently standing on the meadows of the Jiang Lan's Realm as he watched the boundless space of the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Qin Yu was certain that with the temperaments of Xue Tianya and Emperor Yu, they would certainly not simply leave just like that. He was certain that they would be outside and continue to carefully inspect the planet. Furthermore, Qin Yu was also able to sense flows of Immortal Awareness and Devil Awareness continuously passing through the top of the speck of sand that Jiang Lan's Realm had turned into.

The transformation function of the Jiang Lan's Realm was truly outstanding.

Even when Emperor Yu and Xue Yileng joined hands, they still cannot determine the location of the Jiang Lan's Realm. Their Immortal Awareness and Devil Awareness had already passed through and searched the speck of sand that the Jiang Lan's Realm turned into multiple times already. However, they still only considered it to be a regular speck of sand.

"I am truly not cautious enough." Qin Yu began to recall what had happened in this period of time and then shook his head and smiled.

Level eight Immortal Emperor. Level eight Devil Emperor.

The two top players were keeping a close watch outside. However, Qin Yu didn't particularly mind.

If he were to restrain his soul's energy and assimilate it completely into the insides of the Meteoric Tear and, at the same time, not use any of his internal energy, then even Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya would certainly be unable to sense him.

"If my body's energy stayed motionless, then Emperor Yu and Xu Tianya would be unable to discover me. However, if I were to leave the Jiang Lan's Realm and exit the Blue Snow Star, can I continuously not use my energy?" Qin Yu grew a bit worried.

If he were to immediately exit the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Qin Yu have to absolutely not use even a trace of his energy. If he were to use it, then Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya would immediately find him.

"Even if I don't use a trace of my energy, the moment I step foot on the Interstellar Conveying Array... Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya would find out that the Interstellar Conveying Array was being used when they can't feel anyone's aura within it. They would most certainly suspect it."

Qin Yu was able to imagine that kind of situation.

Interstellar Conveying Array was being used but there's no one inside?

This kind of situation was completely out of ordinary. If Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya were to find out about this, then they would likely teleport there immediately. Even if he were to be able to go through the Interstellar Conveying Array, then it's likely that Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya would dispatch their troops to await Qin Yu on the other side of the Interstellar Conveying Array and intercept him. Afterwards, Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya would immediately come chasing after him.

Therefore, this method was not workable.

"There's another method that's a bit more troublesome." Qin Yu went over all the possible situations in his mind.

This method was: if Qin Yu were to go out of the Jiang Lan's Realm and then don't use any energy and then suddenly use the Greater Teleportation to teleport to a different planet! Even if Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya were to discover him, how would they be able to tell where Qin Yu was?

Although this method was pretty good. But, Qin Yu wanted to go to the Demon Realm. Through the closest route, he would absolutely have to go through the Immortal Realm. If he were to go through the Devil Realm, then he'll have to go all the way around.

From the Indigo Bay Star Field to the Immortal Realm and then to the Demon Realm.

This Blue Snow Star was one of the two main planets one must take in order to be transferred into the Immortal Realm. After he exits the Jiang Lan's Realm, he would be able to go through the other planet. However, how could Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya not imagine such a thing occurring?

Qin Yu reckoned that either Emperor Yu or Xue Tianya would move directly to the other transferring planet and await him.

"What should I do? If I were to leave now and try to go through the transferring planet to the Immortal Realm, that is simply unrealistic. Could it be that I would have to make a detour through the Devil Realm?" Qin Yu was pondering in his heart. He had simply never considered about using Greater Teleportation and teleportation directly into the Immortal Realm.

There is an extremely long distance between two star fields without any planets. This distance was so big that it surpassed the length of a whole galaxy. Although there existed no large planets within this cosmic space, it possessed some frightening and dangerous energies.

To use Greater Teleportation directly to move forward, even if it was Emperor Yu or Xue Tianya, they would still not dare to do such a crazy thing. Qin Yu had already subconsciously rejected this idea.

Right now, there was only two safe roads in front of Qin Yu.

The first one: Right after going out, execute Greater Teleportation to a different planet. Afterwards, change his appearance and proceed to go through the Devil Realm and take a huge detour to the Demon Realm.

The second one: Wait. Wait until Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya run out of patience and start to believe that Qin Yu had already left the Blue Snow Star. Only then would Qin Yu go out!

Which one to choose?

"I better determine my attacking technique first and then consider which road to take." Qin Yu swing his head. He decided to temporary not decide which method to leave.

He decided to first deal with the issue of attacking technique during battle.

Attacking technique!

It was Qin Yu's weak spot.

During the battle against Yu Qingzi and Immortal Emperor Qian Qi, even at the battle against Xue Yileng, Zhi Bai and Devil Emperor Xue Yi, Qin Yu had felt that he had an issue with his attack.

Especially after Qin Yu saw Ao Wuming's great battle against Xue Yileng and Zhi Bai and also the battle of Emperor Yu against Xue Tianya, Qin Yu was even more certain that he had an issue with his attacking technique.

Other people's attacks are very powerful and even contained an extremely strong attack power.

What about Qin Yu's?

It seems like he could only rely on his speed and his nearly unkillable body to fight against his opponent while risking his life.

That's right, he possessed a Divine Armor and the Life Elemental Energy; it was very difficult for others to kill him. His Divine Sword, Sky Piercer, was able to kill level one or two Immortal Emperors.

However, this type of attacking method was only a simple attacking method that utilizes his strong points. His attacking method was still at the level of the mortal experts of the Qianlong Continent. It was still at the level of regular cultivators.

His attacking method was simply not something that Golden Immortals would use nor was it something that Immortal Emperors would use!

Qin Yu's foundation was firm and solid. His soul was strengthened by the Meteoric Tear. His body was nearly unkillable. And he even possessed a Divine Armor for defense. For attack, he possessed the Divine Sword Sky Piercer.

Qin Yu possessed both strength and weapon. It's just that his attack power was not able to completely burst out.

Qin Yu had a kind of urge.

He wanted to create an attack technique that belonged to him and suited him. A kind of technique that was able to utilize all of his attack power. An attack technique that would allow him to execute the greatest might!

For example, if he possessed an attack power of one hundred; Qin Yu wanted to create an attack technique that suited him the most and increase his attack power to one thousand or even higher.

...

Within the Jiang Lan's Realm. Qin Yu was wholeheartedly in the state of trying to create his own attack technique.

Time passed...

Qin Yu recalled all the past scenes, especially the scenes in which all those experts were fighting each two most important battles that he was recalling were the battle of Xue Tianya against Emperor Yu and Ao Wuming against Xue Yileng and Zhi Bai.

Qin Yu continued to constantly recall the scenes in which these experts fought. That's because although his sensitive Immortal Awareness did not see each and every move of their battle, it still managed to see a portion of it.

After continuous research and study, occasionally Qin Yu would become excited as a child obtaining a new toy. Occasionally, he would display a most simple and honest smile after realizing a profound attacking technique...

Qin Yu's comprehension toward battle was increasing with an astonishing speed.

Finally, Qin Yu came to understand why a large amount of experts wanted to go and watch the battles of Emperor level experts. The most important reason was because they wanted to attain realizations from the attacks of the Emperor level experts and advance to a new realm.

Although Qin Yu's soul's realm was high but his soul realm was not something that he obtained via realizations nor was it something that came to be gradually understood and risen via the passage of time like other experts.

[TL: I don't know why author used soul's realm. I felt level would be better. maybe it's soul's realm level. Well, just leaving this here.]

His soul's realm was reached through constant cultivation through practicing the *Three Souls Nine Refinements* technique of the Meteoric Tear. He had continued to execute those hand seals that contained a remarkable ability so naturally he did not recognize that although such a training method could build a strong foundation, he never truly completely comprehended the level that his soul was on.

Thus, although Qin Yu's current soul realm had reached layer three of Earthly Soul realm, his attack technique's level was still very low. He was, at the very most, at the level of Heavenly Immortals.

When the level of attack technique was low, it's efficiency was naturally also low.

As the amount of people he fought increased, Qin Yu naturally came to feel that there was an issue with his attacking technique.

Qin Yu's soul's realm was very high level and he was recalling the scenes of experts fighting. Qin Yu was comprehending things in a reverse order, thus his comprehension speed was naturally faster. Thus, Qin Yu's own attack technique was also being gradually shaped.

The attacks of true experts are based on the condition that suited them the most.

As time passed, Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya who was still on the Blue Moon Star were still persistently keeping a close watch over the planet. However, Qin Yu was currently immersed in the happiness of attaining true comprehensions of each and every layer of his soul's realms.

Chapter 54 – Finger Technique

Inside the Jiang Lan's Realm, Qin Yu was unable to sense the passage of time. Time and time, he managed to arrive at a comprehension. This had caused Qin Yu to be at an excited state. In that kind of state, Qin Yu was filled with enthusiasm...

Energies surged forward, like a mirage, Qin Yu was drifting unceasingly. Each and every one of the energy was extremely fast and also extremely powerful.

Suddenly!

"Wrong, wrong!" Qin Yu suddenly stopped. At this moment, Qin Yu had an expression that could not be described as either crying or laughing.

From starting to comprehend the realms until now, Qin Yu suddenly discovered...that the *Eighteen Forms Finger Techniques* that he had previously created, needed to be thrown away because the finger techniques that he had recently created wasn't suited for him.

This caused Qin Yu to feel a bit of pain but also some excitement.

Because... Qin Yu finally came to understand what 'domains' were.

Domain, a superb skill that belonged to Emperor level experts.

If one didn't understand what it was, then it would appear to be a profound mystery. However, once one understood it, it was in fact extremely simple.

"So the world was actually like this. The boundless Cosmic Space contained its special rules and regulations. Each and every energy, each and every existence all had their own reason for existence." Qin Yu looked at each and every space of the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Before, Qin Yu had never viewed the Cosmic Space as more than a Cosmic Space.

However, to the current Qin Yu, Cosmic Space contained its own distinctive rules and regulations. Those rules and regulations were extremely profound and mysterious. The current Qin Yu had only managed to sense its existence. As for understanding it... that was simply out of the question.

However, with merely sensing its existence, it was already enough for Qin Yu to execute 'domain.'

"It seems like that *Eighteen Forms Finger Techniques* is also considered to be very complicated and troublesome. Real attack technique only required a couple types. A fusion domain attack is the actual attack that belongs to experts."

Qin Yu closed his eyes, his Immortal Awareness and the energy within him started to fill the air around him.

The most important aspect for one to realize 'domains' was the degree in which one's soul and the Cosmic Space is in agreement. Although Qin Yu's soul level was merely at the third layer of Earthly Soul Realm, but with the help from the Meteoric Tear, he was able to execute 'domain.'

Within an area of a hundred miles from Qin Yu.

The space remained calm like it used to be. However, hidden beneath the surface were strands of Black Hole energy. Qin Yu's Black Hole energy had assimilated into every spot within the space of his domain's range.

Qin Yu was able to restrict the movements of his opponents and even able to suddenly attack his opponents. Back when Qin Yu battled Yu Qingzi, Yu Qingzi precisely used this move to restrict Qin Yu's movement and disrupt his attack pattern.

After comprehending domain, Qin Yu's comprehension toward battles once again increased by a layer.

The *Eighteen Forms Finger Techniques* that he had previously created was completely abandoned by Qin Yu. Now that Qin Yu had an understanding of the Cosmic Space, he began to once again create an attacking technique that suited him better.

On a mountain peak of the Blue Snow Star.

One wearing white and one wearing purple, Xue Tianya and Emperor Yu were standing on the mountain peak.

"Brother Xue. It's already been five years. These five years, we have been carefully inspecting every location of the Blue Snow Star. Although we managed to find some other interesting things, we were absolutely unable to find any traces of Qin Yu." Said Emperor Yu with a mild smile.

Xue Tianya also had an indifferent smile.

The battle that they had on the Blue Snow Star had caused the relationship between them to be a bit tense and they had almost became enemies. However, in these five years, neither of them managed to discover Qin Yu. For a long time, they had used their Immortal Awareness and Devil Awareness to cover the entire Blue Snow Star. Now, the two great experts were starting to feel tired.

After all, they were not in any seclusion training location where they are able to train for a number of years at once. At every moment, they would have to carefully monitor the planet.

They had a feeling... that perhaps they had already lost Qin Yu.

As the two were both losers, they started to empathize with each other and caused the relationship between them to become a lot better.

"Brother Feng Yu, I cannot wait anymore. Who knows whether that Qin Yu would decide to stay several hundred or even thousand or ten of thousands of years in the Qingyu Immortal Mansion at once?" Said Xue Tianya with a smile.

Emperor Yu also had a bitter smile.

That's right, who knows how long Qin Yu was going to stay in the Qingyu Immortal Mansion? Even now, the two of them still believed that Qin Yu was in the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.

"Brother Xue, I have a lot of important matters and also cannot continue to stay on the Blue Snow Star. I will immediately return back to the immortal Realm and dispatch one or two Emperor level expert to this Blue Snow Star to keep a close watch over it." Said Emperor Yu while smiling.

"I will do the same. The Blue Snow Star is only this big, Qin Yu still hasn't reached Emperor level yet, sending a single Devil Emperor level expert here would be more than enough to monitor the whole Blue Snow Star. Once he reappears, he would definitely be detected." Said Xue Tianya with absolute certainty.

Even now, these two men still didn't know about the sensitivity of Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness.

"Merely, I am afraid that they might not have the patience to keep watch continuously." Sighed Emperor Yu.

Even Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya, the two great experts, felt tired after monitoring for five years straight. If a level two or three Immortal and Devil Experts were to come and monitor, then it is reckoned that they would have to rest for a long time after monitoring for a single year.

Xue Tianya said without caring. "After they monitored for a period of time, they could rest for ten days to half a month and then continue to monitor. That Qin Yu is not even at the Emperor level yet, it is absolutely impossible for him to sense the surveillance of Emperor level experts. I do not believe that he would have such a reemerge at such a timely period where there would be no one monitoring him."

"Right, before Qin Yu reaches Emperor level, he cannot sense the surveillance of Emperor level experts." Emperor Yu said in approval.

This was the best hope that both Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya had to catch Qin Yu.

Unfortunately...

Their hope was absolutely flawed.

"If that Qin Yu was really to be that lucky and come out right when our men are resting, then we can only admit that he's got immense luck. To be that lucky, it could only be said that... even the Heavens were helping him and that Bewitching God Painting would be temporarily inaccessible to us." Said Xue Tianya with a mild smile.

Xue Tianya looked toward Emperor Yu and said. "Even if Qin Yu managed to run to the Immortal Realm, brother Feng Yu still possesses a very large hope. After all, in the Immortal Realm, brother Feng Yu's influence is awfully large."

Emperor Yu merely smiled without saying anything.

"Well then, brother Feng Yu, the people that I dispatched have already arrived on the Blue Snow Star, farewell."

"I too would be departing the Blue Snow Star, farewell."

The two top experts separated. What they had to do now was to tell the people they had dispatched the aura of Qin Yu's energy and soul. After all, the Immortal Emperor and Devil Emperor that came had never met Qin Yu before.

If one hadn't met the person before but still wanted to recognize that person, then there are two methods.

The first method was through jade slips. One could insert the image of another person into a jade slip. The other person would know how the person looked just by looking at the jade slip. However, this is only the appearance. Once the person's appearance changed, then they were unable to determine who they were anymore.

The second method was to imitate the aura of the person so that it could be imprinted into the mind of the other person.

What Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya were about to do was precisely imitating Qin Yu's aura to imprint it onto their subordinates' minds.

Of course, the second method was not flawless. That's because an imitation of the aura was after all an imitation and absolutely cannot be exactly the same. The knowledge of Qin Yu's aura to the arriving Immortal and Devil Emperors would be deviated from the actual person.

The arriving Immortal and Devil Emperors also knew about this. They planned to capture all the people who possessed aura close to that of the imitation. They would rather be mistaken and catch everyone than be sorry and let Qin Yu run away.

The inside of the Jiang Lan's Realm was still as peaceful as before.

In these past years, the main focus of Qin Yu's research was the finger technique. That's because regardless of whether it's the Dark Star energy that he previously had or the Black Hole energy that he currently had, both of them were extremely condensed.

An energy so condensed like this was best suited for finger techniques.

...

Qin Yu was motionlessly standing atop the meadows.

"Ten Termination Fingers!"

Ten golden finger rays were shot out in succession from Qin Yu's fingers. These ten finger rays did not fly out at the same time and they each possessed some minute differences. However, unless one's soul realm level was high enough, they were absolutely unable to detect the differences between these ten finger rays.

The ten finger rays turned into ten rays of light.

"Bang!" Finally, the ten golden finger rays strangely gathered together and were shot on to the ground.

At the moment these ten finger rays were shot out, they were actually shot out from six of Qin Yu's fingers. At the moment when they were shot out, the ten were all parallel and matched up to each other!

The ten finger rays gave an impression that they were flying in a straight line.

Theoretically, the ten finger rays would never combine into one. However, mysteriously, the ten finger rays actually combined.

If it was the Qin Yu before he had gone through his latent cultivation, then it was absolutely impossible for him to comprehend and he would even believe that this was a mistake. However, the current Qin Yu understood it and even created this extremely fierce 'Ten Termination Fingers."

[TL: yeah, I'm as confused about finger logic as you are. IET, wtf bruh?

Kulops: man, ten shots out of 6 fingers, seriously? ]

The was precisely the gap between realms.

The comprehension of mortals, the comprehension of cultivators, the comprehension of immortals and even the comprehension of high level emperors were all different from each other. Now, Qin Yu had also realized that.

Back when he was fighting against Yu Qingzi, he was clearly the one who acted first and his speed was also faster than Yu Qingzi's. However, Yu Qingzi was able to block each and every one of his attacks.

So it turns out... that sometimes, the optimal method of attack for pointed swords were not thrusting in a straight line; least not the kind of rigid straight line thrust.

Because of the fact that the Cosmic Space was always mobile, it was always changing. The so called 'straight line' that mortals knew was slow to a certain degree. That's also the reason why Qin Yu felt that the attacks of experts at Xue Tianya's level were elegant and possessed exceptional results. It's just that the Qin Yu back then did not understand the cause for it. However, now he does.

Qin Yu's finger technique was separated into four different forms.

The first form — Ten thousand Weight Fingers.

The second form — Thousand Illusions Fingers.

The third form — Ten Termination Fingers.

The fourth form — Sky Piercing Finger.

The last technique, the Sky Piercing Fingers, was a specialized technique created by Qin Yu using the Black Hole within his body. It was also the strongest technique that the current Qin Yu could execute.

Qin Yu had previously thought about the fact that the Black Hole, when it's rotating forward, was able to give birth to such a frightening absorbing power. Then, what would happen if it was to rotate backwards?

Qin Yu began his experiment. Once the Black Hole was to be reversed, it would give birth to a frightening energy emission. As long as Qin Yu control a string of Black Hole energy on the other side of the Black Hole; after it sped up after undergoing a reverse rotation, then the moment when it was ejected from the Black Hole, it would obtain a frightening speed.

Afterwards, this string of Black Hole energy would go through Qin Yu's finger and, in accordance with his current understanding, be shot out with the best method!

The power of it was so strong that even Qin Yu was overwhelmed with shock and amazement after he created it.

However, in order to execute this move, Qin Yu himself also had to go through a lot of pain.

That's because that string of Black Hole energy, after it went through the other side of the Black Hole and obtained a reverse spin and sped up, it's speed was far exceeding what Qin yu had imagined. At the moment it was shot out from the Black Hole, it would rapidly pass through Qin Yu's body before being shot out of his finger.

From his dantian to his finger, it was impossible for Qin Yu to operate it with his meridians. That's because the speed of that Black Hole energy was simply too fast. It was so fast that it was very hard for Qin Yu to flow it through his meridians. The most Qin Yu could do was to barely make it change directions.

As a result, in Qin Yu's body was a channel created with Life Elemental Energy. This channel directly connected Qin Yu's dantian to his finger. That Black Hole energy would go through the Life Elemental Energy channel and be shot out according to the direction Qin Yu's index finger was pointed to.

Fortunately, ever since Qin Yu reached the Black Hole Realm, his awareness absorbed the aura from the 'flour paste space' and obtained a transformation. Qin Yu's body's energy control ability had also improved by a whole chunk.

That's why he was able to barely control that finger ray with an extremely frightening speed and shoot it out accordinging the the trajectory that he had decided.

...

Within the Jiang Lan's Realm, Qin Yu's aura had risen.

Ten Termination Fingers!

Ten golden finger rays were shot out in succession from Qin Yu's hands. They looked to be overlapping each other but were still parallel. Like that, they were shot out from Qin Yu's hands. In a short moment, the ten golden finger rays once again started to overlap each other.

The ten finger rays joined and became one. It's power was extremely large.

Qin Yu paused. After the space of his surroundings became stable, immediately, toward a far away space in the direction where the Ten Termination Fingers were shot at.

Sky Piercing Finger!

"Bang!"

A golden savage ray was show out from Qin Yu's index finger. A short moment after the golden blur was shot out, the space started to give out an astonishing vibration sound. And at this moment, the golden rays of the Ten Termination Fingers had already came into Qin Yu's field of view.

With a "bang."

The Ten Termination Fingers were defeated whereas the golden savage ray continued to fly.

With a thought of Qin Yu's intention, the ground faraway protruded out to block the Sky Piercing Finger. After a series of explosive sounds, the Sky Piercing Finger finally stopped after shooting through numerous protrusions.

As the master of Jiang Lan's Realm, it was very easy for Qin Yu to control the movements of the ground of the Jiang Lan's Realm.

"The power of the Sky Piercing Finger was several times greater than the Ten Termination Fingers." Qin Yu was able to determine that after the Sky Piercing Finger broke through the Ten Termination Fingers, it only received a slight damage.

"What shall I call this series of finger techniques?" Qin Yu thought about it for a short while.

For some unknown reason, Qin Yu started to recall the memories he had in the Qianlong Continent.

At that moment, he had called himself Mister Meteor. He had undergone the Four-in-Nine Heavenly Tribulation together with his royal father in the great desolated land... It was also because of the descent of the Meteors that he managed to came into contact with the transformative Meteoric Tear that changed his destiny.

[TL: Mister Liu Xing Mister Meteor]

Qin Yu possessed a special relationship with 'meteor.'

"Meteor, I'll just call it Meteor Finger Technique." Qin Yu didn't really mind a lot about this name. A name was nothing more than a symbol. What's most important was the power of the Finger Technique itself.

This *Meteor Finger Technique* first three forms might be something that others can learn but the fourth form was likely something only Qin Yu himself could execute. After calculating it in his heart, Qin Yu couldn't help himself from sighing. "It's been a hundred years. I've actually trained for a hundred years. It actually took me so long to create a single finger technique."

The current Qin Yu was still at the mid stage Black Hole realm.

His power did not increase by much. However, his actual attack power had increased to a new realm.

In this hundred years, Qin Yu mainly spent the time on creating the *Meteor Finger Technique*. While this *Meteor Finger Technique* is called a finger technique, it could also be turned into a palm technique, fist technique and so on. That's because the preciousness of the *Meteor Finger Technique* lies in the comprehension Qin Yu had towards the Cosmic Space and the Realms.

Qin Yu's field of vision and level of techniques had all reached a new extent. At the same time, he came to comprehend the 'domain' and was now able to finally be qualified to fight against emperor level experts.

Chapter 55 – Ice Wind Sect

As he looked at the boundless space within the Jiang Lan's Realm, Qin Yu took a deep breath.

"It's about time for me to exit. I should be more cautious this time around; at the very least, I need to change my appearance!" Qin Yu changed his appearance.

His long hair turned into three inch long short hair. His black gown had also turned into a blue colored close-fitting clothes. His appearance turned a bit more capable and vigorous. At the same time, he also made his facial features to be a little bit more coarse and fierce.

After preparing everything, Qin Yu was prepared to leave the Jiang Lan's Realm.

"Mn? Somebody's monitoring?" Qin Yu was able to clearly sense the soul energy of two individuals sweeping past the sand that the Jiang Lan's Realm had turned into.

"One is an Immortal Emperor whereas the other is a Devil Emperor. Their strength seems to be around level two or three Immortal Emperor's level." Just from the level of soul energy that swept past the sand that the Jiang Lan's Realm had turned into, Qin Yu was able to roughly estimate these two individual's strength.

After Qin Yu muttered that to himself, he felt a lack of better option. "Seems like these two should be the people that the two level eight Immortal Emperor and Devil Emperor have dispatched."

Toward these two level eight Immortal Emperor and Devil Emperor, after deeply pondering over it, Qin Yu had determined that there's eighty percent chance that they were Xue Tianya and Emperor Yu.

"Humph. Even if they were to be a level eight Immortal Emperor, they would still not be able to continue to press on with the surveillance. They were unable to continue and had decided to let their subordinates do it. Hm?" Qin Yu suddenly noticed that one of the Immortal Awareness suddenly disappeared.

Qin Yu was slightly astonished. However, he soon reacted. "Seems like that Immortal Emperor who had been monitoring the planet has gotten tired."

There was a total of two individuals that were keeping surveillance over the Blue Snow Star. One was an Immortal Emperor whereas the other was a Devil Emperor. It was evident that this Immortal Emperor had retired to rest. When would this Devil Emperor retire to rest?

"I hope that these two are not working with each other." Hoped Qin Yu.

If these two were working together and matching their resting timing where one rests while the other continues to keep a close watch on the planet, then if Qin Yu wanted to leave peacefully, then he must certainly have to make a detour through the Devil Realm. To take a large detour through the Devil Realm was something that Qin Yu didn't want to do.

Qin Yu firmly believed that the level eight Immortal Emperor and the level eight Devil Emperor that were trying to kill him were competing with each other. Thus, how would they possibly cooperate?

With this idea in his mind, Qin Yu decided to wait and see.

He started to wait and waited a whole month.

After a month had passed.

Qin Yu excitedly found out that there was actually no Immortal Awareness nor Devil Awareness monitoring the outside world.

Qin Yu didn't know that every year, the Immortal Emperor and Devil Emperor that keep watch over the planet had to rest a month. Although their resting period intersects with each other, but every year, there's always a period of blank time without anyone keeping surveillance.

Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya firmly believed that Qin Yu was unable to sense the surveillance of Emperor level experts. Furthermore, the blank time when there is no one keeping surveillance was extremely short. Thus, they didn't really care much about it.

A clear and boundless sky. In the sky, there were only a couple white clouds drifting. At this time, the Blue Snow Star was extremely lively. Its streets were packed with large amounts of cultivators.

Qin Yu was currently walking on the street.

"I remember that my alias 'Mister Meteor' was a short haired man when I was still taking assassin missions back in the Qianlong Continent. It's been a long time since I had short hair." The current Qin Yu had a three inch long short hair. He felt that it was also very comfortable as it had been a long time since he had short hair.

[TL: Mister Liu Xing Mister Meteor. Also, agree with Qin Yu, short hair is comfortable. But long hair looks better.]

With a very fast speed, Qin Yu passed through the city.

Once he entered the grassland area, he immediately used teleportation and arrived at the location of the Interstellar Conveying Arrays.

As there was no one monitoring him, Qin Yu didn't fear being discovered.

There were truly quite a many people that were going to the Immortal Realm from the Blue Snow Star. At this moment, there were already a large amount of people in line.

"Where to?" The administrative personnel of the Interstellar Conveying Array asked Qin Yu.

Qin Yu smiled and said. "To the 'Forever Bright Star' of the Immortal Realm."

The Forever Bright Star of the Immortal Realm was a border planet of the Indigo Bay Star Field on the side of the Immortal Realm.

"Three high grade elemental spirit stones." Said that administrative personnel ordinarily.

Qin Yu was slightly startled. From a Star Field to another Star Field was indeed excessively pricey. However, to Qin Yu, this amount of money wasn't much either.

After he paid the three high grade elemental spirit stones, Qin Yu stepped into the Interstellar Conveying Array.

Rays of light that cause one's mood to become cheerful started to flicker.

Qin Yu was also unable to keep himself from smiling. "Both the level eight Immortal Emperor and Devil Emperor, you are still unable to catch me. It's a pity that you had wasted so much energy and even showed me a marvelous fight that granted me boundless benefits."

After the rays of light disappeared, QIn Yu also disappeared.

On the extreme south of the Immortal Realm was a bright planet. All year round, it was shined upon by stars. On this planet, there were no nights. Thus... this planet was named 'Forever Bright Star.'

In the same galaxy as the Forever Bright Star was another planet with quite a bit of reputation. It is called the Bright Sulfur Star.

The reason why the Bright Sulfur Star came to be well known was because the planet produced extremely rare ores. And at this moment... Qin Yu was currently on the Bright Sulfur Star.

In a common restaurant on the Bright Sulfur Star.

Qin Yu was currently drinking the 'famed wine' of this restaurant. Qin Yu felt that this wine wasn't really of that high grade as it was said to be. Merely, he had never tried this wine before and this time could be considered as gaining experience.

"All these years, I have been in the Jiang Lan's Realm with neither alcohol nor good food, my mouth has grown so weak that it even started discharging water." Qin Yu was completely relaxed.

Having arrived in the Immortal Realm, as long as he doesn't cause trouble, it was simply a pipe dream for that level eight Immortal Emperor to try and catch him. Unless he directly ran into that level eight Immortal Emperor; however, even if he was to run into that level eight Immortal Emperor, he would still be unable to be a hundred percent certain of Qin Yu's identity.

"That level eight Immortal Emperor ought to be Emperor Yu." Said Qin Yu in his heart. "During our conversations, big brother Wuming had also mentioned that there are three big shots in the Immortal World. Mystic Emperor was a woman. Cyan Emperor rarely undertake a task and was very mysterious."

Based on what Wuming said and the fact that Emperor Yu was already chasing after Qin Yu, Qin Yu was certain that this level eight Immortal Emperor was most likely Emperor Yu.

As long as he was to be extra careful in the territories of Emperor Yu and not cause any trouble, he ought to be very safe.

Amongst the countless planets with countless amount of people, the chances of encountering Emperor Yu face to face... just by thinking about it one would know how slim the chances were. Trying to encounter someone in a planet with over a hundred million people was already very hard. There's needless to mention about the numerous planets within a galaxy. And how many galaxies exist in the Immortal Realm?

After resting for a day on the Bright Sulfur Star, Qin Yu finally began to set off.

He set off from the most southern end of the Immortal Realm and started to go straight toward the boundaries of the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm. This boundary was also the most western end of the Immortal Realm.

The Immortal Realm composed of about twenty percent of the whole Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. It possessed about twenty star fields. All at once and without resting, Qin Yu managed to cross from planets to planets, galaxies to galaxies...

[TL: once again, I would like to point out. I am not putting Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm as Realms because technically, IET is referring to the Ascended Realm. IET interchanges his words every now and then. So yeah, it is not referring to the 3 Realms but rather the whole Ascended Realm that included the hidden experts area that don't belong to either 3 Realms.]

In the whole journey, he continued to advance unceasingly.

The current Qin Yu possessed an Interstellar Map of almost the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. This Interstellar Map was something that Qin Yu obtained from Ao Wuming. Having obtained such a brother, how would Qin Yu not know about cherishing the resources?

The Dragon Clan's Prince was indeed extraordinary.

On this map of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, it contained very detailed information about the plants and Interstellar Conveying Arrays of everywhere. Furthermore, this Interstellar Map was also the latest edition of the map that the Dragon Clan possessed. Even till now, it had only been a hundred years old.

Eight Great Star Fields!

In a single stretch, Qin Yu advanced past eight great star fields in a ten days. In these past ten days, Qin Yu had only rested for half a day.

"Unceasing transport, unceasing transport, now I get a headache whenever I see the lights of Interstellar Conveying Arrays." Qin Yu stepped out of the Interstellar Conveying Array of the Warm Wood Star. This time around, he did not once again get in line to continue onward, instead... he decided to go to the Warm Wood Star's city and rest for a while first.

Warm Wood Star was a very ordinary planet. It was also not within Emperor Yu's range of influence. Qin Yu had decided that in this journey, he would absolutely not rest on Emperor Yu's territory.

Inside a Warm Wood Star's city.

After strolling the streets for half a day, Qin Yu casually brought some interesting gadgets. Qin Yu then stepped into a restaurant, sat down and causally ordered some dishes and a couple bottles of wine.

"It has already been eight star fields now, I would reach the Demon Realm in less than a month's time." Qin Yu watched the scenery outside the window. He was very relaxed.

"Senior martial brother, why did master order all of us to come back so urgently?" Following a clear talking sound, four white clothed youths walked into the restaurant. These four individuals were all emitting an air of arrogance.

Indeed, these four martial brothers, two of them were level eight Golden Immortals and the other two were level nine Golden Immortals. This kind of strength, on an ordinary planet like the Warm Wood Star, was certainly considered to be top notch.

It was very rare for Emperor level experts to appear on ordinary planets like the Warm Wood Star.

"Third martial brother, master did not write in detail about the reason on the Transmission Spirit Pearl." Helplessly said the only tanned youth amongst the four youths.

"Eldest martial brother. Third martial brother. I had heard rumors about the reason why master is gathering us back in the monastery." Said the second martial brother of the four mysterically.

The other three martial brothers immediately looked at this second martial brother.

"Second martial brother, tell us, stop hiding it." The fourth martial brother urged.

"Second martial brother, quickly, tell us." The eldest martial brother also urged.

Qin Yu who was drinking closeby slightly frowned. He was constantly on the move and only managed to finally gain some time to rest but these four martial brothers appeared and started to make a big fuss.

Qin Yu restrained himself and didn't say anything.

"Actually, I am also not very certain. But I know that this time around, the sect master was very happy and even invited two Immortal Emperors to celebrate." Said the second martial brother proudly with a reddened face.

Level nine Golden Immortal was only a step away from a level one Immortal Emperor. However, countless experts were stuck on the threshold of level nine Golden Immortal and were unable to move a step further.

Just by looking at how many level nine Golden Immortals and how many level one Immortal Emperors there are in the Jade Sword Sect, was enough to show exactly how hard it is to cross this step.

"Two Immortal Emperors? Which two Immortal Emperors?" The three other martial brothers all grew curious.

This second martial brother slowly took a slip of his wine. Only when these other three martial brothers grew so anxious that they wanted to beat him up did he spoke. "These two Immortal Emperors, one of them was one of the Eighteen Emperors underneath His Majesty, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan."

"Wow, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan." The fourth martial brother's eyes shined. "I had heard that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was extremely powerful. Back then, there was a tiny power whose head was disrespectful toward His Majesty, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan with his 'Heavenly Fan Seal Techniques' killed three great Immortal Emperors in succession, his strength was so powerful that it directly ruptured the earth."

[TL: The Fan in Heavenly Fan Seal Techniques is the same as Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's name, Fan. So basically it could also mean, Fan's Heavenly Seal Techniques.]

"Eighteen Emperors?"

Qin Yu's left hand that was holding his wine cup slightly stopped.

"Didn't Emperor Yu have 'Eighteen Emperors' working under him? Could these four martial brothers be Emperor Yu's men?" As it concerned Emperor Yu, Qin Yu was unable to refrain himself and started to concentrate his attention to these four's chat.

"Second martial brother, then who is the remaining Immortal Emperor?" Asked the fourth martial brother.

Second marital brother laughed and said. "The remaining Immortal Emperor is also no ordinary person, he is someone who's ranked equal as our sect master of the 'Thirty Six Lords,' from the Indigo Bay Star Field, the Jade Sword Sect's sect master, Yu Qingzi."

"Immortal Emperor Yu Qingzi? He's a Sword Immortal." The eldest martial brother's eyes shined. "It is said that this Immortal Emperor Yu Qingzi is only a level one Immortal Emperor but his attack power is exceptionally high."

...

"Yu Qingzi!"

Qin Yu trembled in his heart and was unable to refrain his face from showing a trace of excitement. "Yu Qingzi oh Yu Qingzi, last time I didn't manage to kill you, never had I expected that after all these years, you didn't hole up in the Jade Sword Sect, but instead came into the Immortal Realm. This time around, even the Heavens want you dead."

Qin Yu had always kept the death of Hanshu in his heart.

Although Hanshu's death was a suicide, it was also a forced suicide.

In Qin Yu's heart, the person that he wanted to kill the most was the mastermind of the plan, Yu Qingzi. It was precisely Yu Qingzi who arranged for the plan to encircle and annihilate Qin Yu. Had it not been for that plan, then how could his disciple possibly die?

On the Maple Moon Star, Qin Yu had attacked Yu Qingzi consecutively for countless times. However, the difference between their strength back then was simply too much. Even with the Sword Immortal Puppet, his comprehension toward battle was still too low. Qin Yu was completely restricted by Yu Qingzi's 'domain.'

"This time around, Yu Qingzi, you will certainly die."

Qin Yu had made his resolution to go kill Yu Qingzi first.

"From what these four martial brothers said, Yu Qingzi should be with the other two Immortal Emperors. One of them was one of the Thirty Six Lords and the other one was one of the Eighteen Emperors called Immortal Emperor Yu Fan. That Immortal Emperor Yu Fan is a bit problematic. However, that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan is certainly no stronger than Green Blooded Sword Immortal; he is unable to kill me."

Qin Yu held no fear in his heart.

However, in order to put things in order, doesn't he still have to plan a bit?

At the very least... he had to know about what sect these four martial brothers belonged to and where it was located at.

Qin Yu considered it carefully in his heart and was unable to help himself from displaying a slight smile.

"To invite two Immortal Emperors to celebrate, sect master was certain to have some exclusive matter." Said third martial brother while smiling. At this moment, they were also looking forward to going back. After all, they could see two Immortal Emperors.

Soon, the four started to become noisy again.

The other people in the restaurant were simply not daring to reprimand them since these four individuals were simply too strong.

"You four juniors better quiet down."

A deep and low voice resounded from a corner of the restaurant.

"Who?" The four martial brother's expression immediately changed, they simultaneously looked toward the direction of the voice. It was precisely Qin Yu who had changed his appearance.

"Eldest martial brother, this enemy is unfathomable." Said second martial brother via voice transmission.

How could the eldest martial brother not know? Right when these four marital brothers looked at Qin Yu, their heart already started to feel terrified. It's because they discovered... that they were all unable to detect Qin Yu's aura and would even think that there was simply no one there if they were to close their eyes.

"Senior, us four juniors didn't know that senior was here, we apologize for our hot-headedness." The eldest martial brother walked out and said respectfully.

"Which sect are you all from? Who are your elders?" Said Qin Yu indifferently as he drank his wine. He didn't even bother to look at the four martial brothers.

The eldest martial brother said respectfully. "Junior is a disciple of the Floating Moon Galaxy's Ice Wind Sect. Our sect master is the Immortal Emperor Bing Lian."

[TL: Bing Lian means Ice Ripple.]

"Oh, so you're disciples of Bing Lian's sect. Taking Bing Lian's honor into consideration, I will let this matter go." Qin Yu indifferently stood up. Then he arrived on the doorway in an instant and had his back toward these four martial brothers. "Juniors, remember, in the future, before you start to make a ruckus in a restaurant, first determine who is in the restaurant."

"Yes, yes."

The four martial brothers were all standing there respectfully. Hearing how Qin Yu addressed Immortal Emperor Bing Lian with a familiar tone and the strength that even they were not able to see through, they were determined that this unfathomable man in front of them was an Emperor level expert.

By the time these four martial brothers raised their head, Qin Yu had already disappeared. Only at this moment did the four martial brothers heave a sigh of relief.

Chapter 56 – Devise a Stratagem

By the Interstellar Conveying Array. Qin Yu had directly teleported here.

"Floating Moon Galaxy, Ice Wind Sect."

Qin Yu took out a jade slip. This jade slip was obtained from Ao Wuming. It contained a map that contained almost all the places in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

"Fortunately I asked big brother Wuming for this Interstellar Map. If it was still that simple map that I had before, then I reckon that it would be impossible for me to find the Floating Moon Galaxy's planet that the Ice Wind Sect was in. This Interstellar Map from big brother Wuming was a lot more detailed."

Qin Yu had a very happy expression.

On the map that was given to him by Wuming, there was a detailed introduction to each planet. For example, it contained information about which power was in control of the planet and who are the experts that are in charge over this power. In short, it's extremely detailed.

Qin Yu used his Immortal Awareness to sweep past all the planets that are in the Floating Moon Galaxy. Immediately, he found the planet that the Ice Wind Sect was in.

White Ice Star.

This was the planet that the Ice Wind Sect was on. This planet was covered with a layer of ice. The two great cities on the White Ice Star were directly created by cultivators using their powers. Its interior temperature was also maintained by a barrier so that it was as warm as spring.

"The Floating Moon Galaxy is not far from here. So many years had already passed, there's no need to be hurried for several more days." Afterwards, Qin Yu handed over the fees and entered the Interstellar Conveying Array. As the rays of lights flickered, Qin Yu continued onward.

Although the Warm Moon Star does not belonged to the Floating Moon Galaxy, it was on the same Star Field as the Floating Moon Galaxy.

After half a day.

In the Floating Moon Galaxy, White Ice Star, White Wind City.

Inside a restaurant on the White Wind City. This restaurant could be considered as luxurious in the whole White Wind City. On the backside of the restaurant was many peaceful patios. A day of staying also cost an expensive price of a hundred low quality elemental spirit stones.

"Boss, don't allow others to disturb me unless it's important." After casually leaving a piece of high quality elemental spirit stone, Qin Yu walked toward the direction of a patio behind the restaurant.

"Senior, please rest assured. There will certainly not be anyone that would disturb senior." As that middle aged man on the front desk saw the high quality elemental spirit stone, he immediately displayed a delighted expression. Ordinary, for experts that casually give one or two high quality elemental spirit stones as payment, they would still not ask for change when they leave.

And Qin Yu, in the eyes of this boss, was clearly a generous senior.

On the quiet patio.

Qin Yu was currently deeply pondering about how to kill Yu Qingzi. After obtaining the major loss from last time around, Qin Yu had also learned his lesson.

"The Floating Moon Galaxy is Emperor Yu's territory and the Ice Wind Sect was the one in charge of it. However, the Floating Moon Galaxy was the only galaxy in the Plate Roe Star Field that belonged to Emperor Yu." Qin Yu was reading the information on the Interstellar Map.

There exist three big shots in the Immortal Realm. However, none of the big shots have complete control over a star field, all they had are the control over different galaxies of different star fields. In some star fields, they occupied a single galaxy. In others, they occupied two or three galaxies. It was also possible for them to not occupy any galaxy in a star field.

In Qin Yu current plan to kill Yu Qingzi.

His only concern was the other two Immortal Emperors. Qin Yu who had created the *Meteor Finger Technique* and understood 'domain' had completely confidence on killing a level one Immortal Emperor, Yu Qingzi. However, the other two Immortal Emperors were a bit troublesome. Especially that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan who was one of the Eighteen Emperors; he was very powerful.

Working under the Emperor Yu were the Eighteen Emperors and Thirty Six Lords. Of which, the weakest one of the Eighteen Emperors was stronger than the strongest one of the Thirty Six Lords.

Clearly... Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was at the very least stronger than Immortal Emperor Qian Qi.

"Immortal Emperor Yu Fan is not the Green Blooded Sword Immortal, it was impossible for him to kill me. However, no matter what, I must not let Emperor Yu find out about me and come chasing after me. If he were to come, then it would become a lot more troublesome."

Although Qin Yu has still yet to strike, Qin Yu was already considering the worst possible outcome.

"First of all, even if I killed Yu Qingzi, I still cannot let Immortal Emperor Yu Fan and them know that I am Qin Yu." Qin Yu had decided in his heart that when he attack this time, he would use the 'Meteor Finger Technique'. It was impossible for them to conclude that he was Qin Yu from the 'Meteor Finger Technique'.

Even if they were to find out about it years later, by that time, Qin Yu would likely become so powerful that he'd have no need to be afraid of others anymore.

"In the case if my identity were to be exposed, if Emperor Yu were to come chasing to kill me? How should I escape then?"

Qin Yu didn't know the current location of Emperor Yu. If he were to be far away, then it was impossible for him to chase after Qin Yu in a short amount of time. However, right now, Qin Yu needed to go through and consider all kinds of possibilities.

"Here."

Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness found a place — another galaxy within the Plate Roe Star Field,

'Angelica Dahurica Galaxy'. Angelica Dahurica Galaxy was Cyan Emperor's territory!

Cyan Emperor.

One of the three big shots of the Immortal Realm.

"The Dragon Clan's map's power partition section actually placed the Cyan Emperor as the power that one absolutely must not provoke?" Qin Yu saw some of the detailed cues on the Dragon Clan's Interstellar Map and was immediately shocked.

Qin Yu didn't know that this Interstellar Map, that belonged to the internal members of the Dragon Clan, was renewed every hundred years. Thus, it was a resource for internal members and was something that only high level people were allowed to read.

For Wuming to give this to Qin Yu, he had truly considered Qin Yu to be his good brother.

"Cyan Emperor was crazily known as 'Eternal.' He had stayed at the level eight Immortal Emperor and was known as... as the history's longest cultivator?" Qin Yu saw the introductions about the Cyan Emperor on the jade slip and was astonished.

Cyan Emperor is a man that's brimming over with talent.

The time it took for him to reach level eight Immortal Emperor from Heavenly Immortal was not long at all. However, once he reached level eight Immortal Emperor, he had never had a breakthrough anymore. When he first reached level eight Immortal Emperor, even Hidden Emperor Lin Yin was only an unknown entity in the Immortal Realm.

In the time that he stayed at the level eight Immortal Emperor, the unknown entity Lin Yin had cultivated all the way to level nine Immortal Emperor in a single stretch and became the most top-notch person in the Immortal Realm.

Anyone who saw this introduction would be baffled.

A man brimming over with talent, why has he stay a level eight Immortal Emperor for so long? Even if he only had the aptitude of a regular Immortal Emperor, over that extremely long period of time, he would still have been able to reach a breakthrough and become a level nine Immortal Emperor.

"Could it be that the Cyan Emperor deliberately refuse to absorb energy? Something's amiss." Qin Yu's brows creased. "Even if a cultivator refuse to deliberately cultivate, one's body would still automatically absorb energy. Even if the speed of the body absorbing energy automatically was very slow, but in that long period of time, the amount of energy that is absorbed was more than enough to cause one to reach level nine Immortal Emperor."

Not mentioning experts.

Even if they're cultivators that had only entered the Jindan stage, their body would also automatically absorb energy.

[TL: Jindan Golden Pellet stage, lol.]

It's just that the speed at which they absorb energy was relatively slow and cannot match to the absorption speed of one who wholeheartedly use one's awareness to absorb.

"Could it be that Cyan Emperor didn't wish to reach level nine Immortal Emperor? Thus, he had been always controlling his body to not absorb energy and even scatter a portion of his body's energy after a period of time?" Qin Yu was unable to believe this.

What good is it to remain a level eight Immortal Emperor forever? Merely to scrape a living?

Qin Yu was unable to believe that Cyan Emperor decided to stay at the level eight Immortal Emperor because he feared the Divine Tribulation. It was simply impossible for people with weak disposition like that was to cultivate all the way up to a level eight Immortal Emperor.

Cyan Emperor had cultivated for a long time. His soul's realm level might be very high, surpassing that of a level nine Immortal Emperor or even higher! The soul's realm level only determines how much energy one could control. The body's energy was the actual foundation for resisting the Divine Tribulation.

One must eventually undergo the tribulation. Why drag?

Qin Yu was very confused.

"This Cyan Emperor is certainly mysterious. He was even deemed the Immortal Realm's number one person to not provoke by the Dragon Clan." Qin Yu had a slight smile on his face. He didn't care about why Cyan Emperor remained a level eight Immortal Emperor the whole time.

However, he knew of one thing.

Even the Dragon Clan had deemed Cyan Emperor as the number one person to not provoke in the Immortal Realm, then it was impossible for Emperor Yu to not know of how strong this Cyan Emperor was.

Thus, in Cyan Emperor's territory, Emperor Yu would not dare run rampant.

he safest move is to flee to the Cyan Emperor's territory.

"It ispossible to directly reach the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy via the Interstellar Conveying Array of the White Ice Star." Qin Yu thought of a possibility. Once he killed Yu Qingzi, then that Immortal Emperor Bing Lian and Immortal Emperor Yu Fan might give an order to stop the Interstellar Conveying Arrays from working.

"If that really was to be the case, then I would directly use Greater Teleportation to move onward. In any case, the Floating Moon Galaxy is close to the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy." Qin Yu felt relaxed in his heart.

Qin Yu didn't dare to use Greater Teleporation between Star Fields.

However, between galaxies, Qin Yu had the guts to do it. Furthermore, it was also possible for him to go to a different planet before going to the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy. There was more than just the Interstellar Conveying Array on the White Ice Star that goes to the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy.

"Good, let's go with that." Qin Yu had absolute certainty.

No matter what kind of situation it would come to, if worse comes to worst, he will just flee to the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy.

The White Ice Star had two major cities. One of them was the White Wind City and the other was the Ice Imperial City.

The White Wind City was a bit larger than the Ice Imperial City. However, the status of the Ice Imperial City was a bit higher than the White Wind City. This is because the Ice Wind Sect's monastery was located in the Ice Imperial City. There was also a large amount of experts within the Ice Imperial City.

After arriving at of the White Wind City.

"Huu, what cold weather." Underneath his feet was an endless amount of ice. Even though the sun was bright up in the sky, the temperature was still very low.

An air cushion created by a layer energy aura automatically appeared on Qin Yu's feet. Toward the ice that covered as far as the eye can see, Qin Yu started to dash toward the Ice Imperial City at a rapid speed.

"Skating is truly interesting."

After skating for a while, Qin Yu started to use teleportation. After he teleported for a large distance, he started to skate for a short distance again before he once again started to teleport a large distance... just like that, he teleported three times before he arrived at the entrance of the Ice Imperial City via skating.

The two guards of the Ice Imperial City saw a man in the distant and immediately dashed toward him.

"Skating?" The two guards were stunned.

The distance between the White Wind City and the Ice Imperial City was very large. If one were to skate here, how long would that take? Most of the people who come here arrived by either teleportation or high speed aerial flying. There have truly never been anyone that arrived via skating.

"Brother, quickly, get away, that is an expert." Shouted one of the guard to the other one.

As the guard of the Ice Imperial City, one must at the very least have the strength of a Golden Immortal. Thus, they have the ability to make discerning judgments.

Qin Yu directly slide into the Ice Imperial City's city gate.

"Interesting, interesting." Qin Yu exhaled slowly. He then retrieved the aura on his feet. There was no ice in the inside of the Ice Imperial City. Furthermore, earlier, Qin Yu merely had a period of childish innocence.

The Ice Imperial City was flourishing. Although it is not as big as the White Wind City, the entire city's composition was very tight and exceptionally beautiful.

While walking on the street, Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness was, in a moment, emitted and covered the entire Ice Imperial City.

In the middle of the Ice Imperial City was the Ice Wind Sect's monastery. The main hall of the Ice Wind Sect's monastery was ninety nine floors tall. On top of the summit of the monastery was an an extremely beautiful and large ice sculpture of a beautiful woman.

Bustling with noise and excitement!

With merely a sweep of his Immortal Awareness, Qin Yu discovered the liveliness of the Ice Wind Sect. It was as if some sort of rejoicing thing was happening. The entire Ice Wind Sect was decorated with lanterns and colored banners and everyone was laughing.

"A bit troublesome, this Yu Qingzi was actually sat together with the other Immortal Emperor Yu Fan."

At the moment the Immortal Awareness swept through, Qin Yu had already discovered the experts located within the Ice Wind Sect.

There are four Immortal Emperors in the Ice Wind Sect.

The strongest one was a level six Immortal Emperor. This should be Immortal Emperor Yu Fan, one of the Eighteen Emperors under Emperor Yu.

Second only to Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was a beautiful female Immortal Emperor. That beautiful female Immortal Emperor's appearance was exactly the same as that gigantic ice sculpture of a beautiful woman. She was most likely the sect master of the Ice Wind Sect, 'Immortal Emperor Bing Lian.'

The third strongest person was the level one Immortal Emperor Sword Immortal Yu Qingzi.

As for the weakest Immortal Emperor, it was a youngster, a youngster that had just reached level one Immortal Emperor.

"That Immortal Emperor Bing Lian and that youngster should be people of the Ice Wind Sect. They lived in the location of the main sect members of the Ice Wind Sect. However, Yu Qingzi and Immortal Emperor Yu Fan lived in the guest area."

Qin Yu concluded because the location where Yu Qingzi lived had several tens of people and their aura were all different from members of the Ice Wind Sect.

"Martial sister, the young sect master martial uncle was truly worthy of being called a genius. He had started cultivating a lot later than us. When I was a Heavenly Immortal, young sect master was still only a child. And now, young sect master had reached the level of Immortal Emperor in less than a hundred thousand years."

"Mn, young sect master martial uncle is so hardworking that even sect master herself was very happy. From what master had said, sect master had been beaming with smiles these past couple days."

Two white clothed girls brush past Qin Yu while laughing and chatting.

"Young sect master?" Qin Yu continued forward.

As he continued walking, Qin Yu discovered that the entire Ice Imperial City were discussing about this genius youngster that had reached level one Immortal Emperor with less than a hundred thousand years of cultivation — the young sect master of the Ice Wind Sect, Bing Xian.

To reach level nine Golden Immortal in less than a hundred thousand years was unworthy of astonishment. However, those who managed to reach level one Immortal Emperor was sufficient to be called a genius.

"Genius? Taking almost a hundred thousand years to reach level one Immortal Emperor is still considered as genius?" Hearing all those voices of admiration and praises, Qin Yu instead thought of his good brother, Jun Luoyu.

Genius Immortal Emperor, he reached level two Immortal Emperor in only a couple hundred years.

"The gap was simply too big when compared with my brother Luoyu." Qin Yu sighed. Actually, the amount of time Qin Yu cultivated was even shorter. It's just that Qin Yu didn't consider himself to as having talents and ability as he possessed assistance from the Meteoric Tear. However, Qin Yu forgot... that the success of many people, luck was also a huge factor. For example, Jun Luoyu also possessed luck.

Qin Yu quietly walked on the street.

He had already decided that once he reached a distance close to the Ice Wind Gate's monastery... it was the moment of death for Yu Qingzi! And the time in which Qin Yu walked are the final moments for Yu Qingzi to live.

Chapter 57 – One Finger

The Ice Wind Sect was located within the Ice Imperial City. However, outsiders were strictly not allowed within the internal areas of the Ice Wind Sect. That's because surrounding the Ice Wind Sect was a large protective barrier. The surrounding of the Ice Wind Sect was filled with drifting mist all year round; from the outside, one could only see the ice sculpture located at the peak of the monastery.

Numerous white figures were shifting back and forth in the Ice Wind Sect. The whole Ice Wind Sect was brimming with a cheerful atmosphere.

At the guest residence of the Ice Wind Sect.

"Path senior Yu Fan." Yu Qingzi was dressed in a cyan robe. His face contained traces of smile. "Bing Xian was able to reach level one Immortal Emperor in such a short period of time, it would appear that nephew Bing Xian possess boundless prospects."

[TL: yeah, path senior yu fan sounds weird. but that's what he said. basically, you know... devil practitioners have like 3 paths... blood, asura, black. but this yu qingzi is an immortal... but yeah..]

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan also had a smile on his face.

Seeing this scene, Yu Qingzi snickered secretly. "There were a lot of rumors stating that this Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was Bing Xian's biological father. Seems like these weren't baseless rumors."

The Ice Wind Sect's sect master, Immortal Emperor Bing Lian, was a female but didn't have a companion.

However... Immortal Emperor Bing Lian nevertheless had a son called Bing Xian. Countless people had been guessing as to who exactly the father of Bing Xian was. The Eighteen Emperors and the Thirty Six Lords under Emperor Yu were also guessing.

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was the foster brother of Immortal Emperor Bing Lian and looked after her in every possible way. Thus, many people had guessed that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was the father of Bing Xian. However, neither Immortal Emperor Yu Fan nor Immortal Emperor Bing Lian acknowledged that.

"Xiao Xian cultivated for less than a hundred thousand years and yet, was able to reach the level of Immortal Emperor, it is both a good and a bad thing. He... had never really suffered under Bing Lian's protection." Sighed Immortal Emperor Yu Fan.

[TL: Xiao Xian Little Xian.]

"Bing Lian indeed was extremely loving towards nephew Bing Xian." Yu Qingzi nodded in approval.

"A caring mother causes more damages to her son. Fortunately Bing Xian was naturally intelligent and managed to cultivate to the level of an Immortal Emperor even under this sort of circumstances." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan shook his head and smiled as he said.

Bing Xian reached the level of Immortal Emperor so Immortal Emperor Bing Lian decided to hold a majestic celebration. Countless experts of the Ice Wind Sect have returned from the other parts of the universe. Even Immortal Emperor Yu Fan and Yu Qingzi arrived to congratulate.

For a single sect to have two Immortal Emperors, it was certainly a very extraordinary matter.

And at this current moment, Yu Qingzi who was chatting with Immortal Emperor Yu Fan simply didn't know that a Death God had already arrived outside of the Ice Wind Sect.

Mist filled the air, Qin Yu was within the boundless mist filled surroundings of the Ice Wind Sect. His silhouette was blurry.

"Together with Immortal Emperor Yu Fan? I'll wait a little while then." Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness immediately discovered that Yu Qingzi was together with Immortal Emperor Yu Fan. He didn't want the killing of Yu Qingzi to be troublesome.

At this moment, a white clothed woman walked over. This white clothed girl appeared very cold. Her hair was tied up with a jade hairpin inserted in it.

"Excuse me, may I ask what senior is doing here? If senior wants to enter our Ice Wind Sect, this junior could notify for you." The white clothed woman was very respectful toward Qin Yu. Evidently, it was because she cannot see through Qin Yu's cultivation level.

Qin Yu smiled lightly and said. "There is no need for that." The white clothed woman became confused. Normally, there are a lot of people standing outside of the Ice Wind Sect in order to admire it. However, she can tell that Qin Yu was an extremely powerful expert. Would such an expert stand there to admire the Ice Wind Sect?

"Then this junior will stop disturbing senior. If senior wishes to enter the sect, please enter through the main gate because our Ice Wind Sect is surrounded with a large barrier blocking entrance from other locations." Said the white clothed woman respectfully.

Qin Yu smiled and looked at the white clothed woman. "You think that I cannot tell that there's a large barrier protecting the surroundings of the sect?"

The white clothed woman grew a bit embarrassed.

Certainly with Qin Yu's strength, he was able to tell from a glance the defensive barrier surrounding the Ice Wind Sect and that one could only enter through the main gate.

"In that case, this junior will shall leave senior alone." The white clothed girl then withdrawn from the location. She felt a bit helpless; how could an expert of this level stand outside the Ice Wind Sect and admire the building like a small entity that had never seen something great? It was certainly somewhat strange.

Qin Yu stood in the maze without moving. After a period of time, he would use his Immortal Awareness to investigate the Ice Wind Sect that was surrounded by the large barrier. Even Qin Yu was unable to directly teleport inside and could only enter through the main gate.

"It's about time." Qin Yu's eyes shined.

Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness clearly detected that, at this moment, Yu Qingzi had left Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's residence and returned to his own.

"Yu Qingzi, last time, with Immortal Emperor Qian Qi, you guided several tens of of level nine Golden Immortals and two hundred level eight Golden Immortals to encircle and kill me. You even bring about my foolish disciple's death. Today, I shall make you settle your debt."

Qin Yu's gaze grew cold. He started to walk toward the main entrance of the Ice Wind Sect.

In all directions of the entire Ice Wind Sect, only this main gate does not possess the obstruction from the barrier. However, if outsiders wanted to enter, they would at the very least be notified by the guards and needed to obtain permission before they were allowed entrance. Yet, the Ice Wind Sect's disciples were able to enter and exist as they wishes.

"That mysterious expert had came?" The white clothed woman that had previously inquired Qin Yu was standing in front of the main gate. Seeing Qin Yu walking over, she looked toward him.

One step, two steps!

Qin Yu was approaching the main gate.

"Senior." The white clothed woman stepped forward and was about to speak, however —

"Woosh!"

Suddenly, Qin Yu's body turned into a flash. Before the white clothed woman could react, he had already bursted into the main gate. Seeing this scene, the white clothed woman was slightly shocked. She then immediately reacted. "There's an enemy!"

Following the white clothed girl's loud shout, the entire Ice Wind Sect grew panicky.

With a figure like a blue phantom, he was indefinitely blurry. Agilely, he passed through countless buildings. In a mere blink of an eye, he had arrived at Yu Qingzi's residence.

"Not good."

At the moment Qin Yu rushed rapidly into the Ice Wind Sect, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan had already discovered him and then disappeared from his residence.

"Mother." A cute youngster with rosy complexion heard the external movements and was very excited.

"Xiao Xian, you are not permitted to go outside."

Said Immortal Emperor Bing Lian coldly. Afterwards, she exited the room like a lightning.

...

With Qin Yu's speed, Yu Qingzi had only discovered that someone had rushed in front from main gate of the Ice Wind Sect before immediately discovering that the enemy was already in front of his eyes. The first response of Yu Qingzi was to launch his 'domain' to immediately bind the opponent's movements.

A Top Quality Immortal Armor appeared on Yu Qingzi's body. On his hand was also a Top Quality Immortal Weapon. At the same time when he was evading Qin Yu, he also immediately sent a voice transmission. "Who are you, path friend? I believe I have no grievance nor animosity with you, path friend."

[TL: I am really debating about rather to keep the 'path' part. It sounds super weird. He just say that cause he assumed Qin Yu was an immortal.]

Qin Yu felt that his movement was being restrained. He humped coldly.

His 'domain' was also launched.

"Emperor level expert." Yu Qingzi's face grew pale, he was able to sense that his opponent was contesting over the control of the surrounding space with him. At this moment, Yu Qingzi didn't bother to show any quarter and immediately took out his sword to attack.

"Yu Qingzi, prepare to die." Shouted Qin Yu furiously via voice transmission.

The Black Hole in Qin Yu's dantian started to revolve in the reverse direction. As it revolved, the surrounding space also started to fluctuate. Yu Qingzi was also to sense that the situation was bad. A golden Black Hole Energy appeared in the other side of the Black Hole channel. Following the Black Hole's rapid rotation, it was shot out at a rapid speed!

Following the tunnel created with Life Elemental Energy, a golden blur passed through the channel at a rapid speed and was shot out following the direction of Qin Yu's index finger —

Meteor Finger Technique, the fourth form — Sky Piercing Finger!

"Bang!"

A fierce vibration echoed. Yu Qingzi was thrown to the other side. Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was standing on front of him. Earlier, in a split second, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan appeared in front of Yu Qingzi and blocked Qin Yu's Sky Piercing Finger.

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's residence was very close to Yu Qingzi's. When Qin Yu arrived at Yu Qingzi's residence, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan had already arrived. It's just that he had not moved yet.

At the moment when Qin Yu used his Sky Piercing Finger, the space started to fluctuate with Qin Yu as the core. Sensing that the situation had turned bad and that Yu Qingzi would most likely be unable to resist the move, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan immediately moved and pushed away Yu Qingzi to help block the incoming attack.

"Who exactly are you, path friend?" At this moment, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was also astonished.

He was prepared when he stepped in to block the attack. However, even though he was prepared, the Immortal Elemental Energy that he had covered his Top Quality Immortal Sword was still completely jolted to nothingness by the Sky Piercing Finger. Even his Top Quality Immortal Sword was nearly broken.

"I, am an avenger."

Qin Yu saw the appearance of Immortal Emperor Yu Fan and immediately knew that it would become a bit more troublesome to kill Yu Qingzi.

Of course, it's only a little bit more troublesome.

Qin Yu was no match against a level six Immortal Emperor. However, a level six Immortal Emperor also cannot do any harm to him. With Qin Yu's defense, it was absolutely possible for him to kill Yu Qingzi even when he's being protected by Immortal Emperor Yu Fan.

"Who dared to behave atrociously in my Ice Wind Sect?" A cold shout echoed. A battle armor that appeared as if it was composed of mystic ice wrapped itself around a lofty and unsullied beautiful woman's body. That woman was standing several tens of meters to Qin Yu's left.

In the small courtyard, several great experts had assembled there all of a sudden.

The corner of Qin Yu's lips were slightly raised!

He was very clear about the strength of the Sky Piercing Finger. It was nearly equivalent to Divine Sword, Sky Piercer's close strike to the body. After all, the Sky Piercing Finger was only a condensed energy that was speed up through the black hole and Qin Yu's comprehension of space. For it to display such a power was already extraordinary.

But...

Qin Yu's strongest attack wasn't that.

Seeing that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan and Immortal Emperor Bing Lian had arrived, Yu Qingzi felt a lot safer in his heart. At once, he stood next to Immortal Emperor Yu Fan and shouted coldly to Qin Yu. "Who are you? What hatred was there between us for you to desire for vengeance? Why do you want to kill me?"

"What hatred? Desire for vengeance? You'll find out when you die." Sneered Qin Yu.

"Shameless boasting." Said Immortal Emperor Yu Fan coldly. "I can see that you are also an Immortal Emperor level expert, I cannot bear for you to waste all your countless years of bitter cultivation; if you were to clarify the situation, I could be your mediator so that the grudges between you and Yu Qingzi could be removed."

To reach the level of Immortal Emperor was a very difficult task. Furthermore, Immortal Emperor level experts also only make friends with other Immortal Emperor level experts. To kill a single one might bring about a group of Immortal Emperors.

Thus, in general, for Immortal Emperors, any grudges that can reach a peaceful solution would usually be solved peacefully.

"Reconcile?" Qin Yu heard what Immortal Emperor Yu Fan said and grew even more furious.

Would reconciliation revive his sole disciple?

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan, Yu Qingzi and Immortal Emperor Bing Lian saw Qin Yu's silence and were all calmly waiting for Qin Yu's answer. If they didn't have to make this into a fight, then you would rather not. Furthermore, Qin Yu's earlier Sky Piercing Finger had also displayed his strength.

"Woosh!" Qin Yu's figure suddenly rushed forward.

"Seeking your own doom." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan also rushed toward Qin Yu. Seeing Qin Yu's movement, he already knew Qin Yu's decision... it's either he who dies or I who dies!

As they're both subordinates of Emperor Yu, how would Immortal Emperor Yu Fan not help Yu Qingzi?

"Attack." Yu Qingzi and Immortal Emperor Bing Lian's expression were both cold. They simultaneously rushed toward Qin Yu to attack.

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's right palm gave of a dazzling golden light, a mysterious talisman seal print was patterned on his right palm. It contained with it a heart trembling power. 'Heavenly Fan Seal Techniques'. The technique that made Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's name known.

However, Qin Yu's index finger was already pointed toward Immortal Emperor Yu Fan.

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan who had already had a taste of the Sky Piercing Finger knew that Qin Yu's finger strike was extremely powerful and was unable to refrain himself from increasing his attack power to the maximum. In a moment, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's right palm was shining even brighter than the sun.

A palm strike!

A finger strike!

A palm strike against a finger strike, which is stronger and which is weaker?

"Bang!"

Strangely, at the moment their attacks reached each other, Qin Yu's arm moved, his finger surprisingly swept past Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's palm attack and took on the palm strike toward his chest without resistance. Although Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was startled, his heart grew ruthless. "You dared to take on my palm strike head on, deathwish!"

That golden palm heavily laned on Qin Yu's chest. Following the palm energy, Qin Yu's figure made an arc and surprisingly started to rush toward Yu Qingzi.

"How could this be?" Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was unable to believe what just happened. When he took on Qin Yu's finger strike, he was able to determine Qin Yu's strength. He didn't believe that Qin Yu was able to take his palm strike head on and not die.

Qin Yu's expression grew cold. The wound on his chest was recovered by his Life Elemental Energy in the twinkling of an eye.

At the moment when he used his body to block that palm strike, the Black Hole in Qin Yu's body had already started to rotate reversely. With Qin Yu as the center, the space around started to oscillate. A golden blur that had reached an terrifying speed was emitted out of the Black Hole. It followed Qin Yu's index finger and was shot out.

In the courtyard.

Almost just after taking on that palm strike, Qin Yu had already pointed his index finger toward Yu Qingzi. The golden blur was shot out at an astonishing speed, it streak across the most dazzling trajectory.

Sky Piercing Finger! At the moment Qin Yu's finger was pointed toward Yu Qingzi, he had closed his eyes and used his awareness to completely control the trajectory of the Sky Piercing Finger.

At that moment... Qin Yu's soul clearly felt the fluctuation within the Cosmic Space. Following the fluctuation, Qin Yu's Sky Piercing Finger had also started to slightly move about. The Sky Piercing Finger's power had reached its maximum —

Yu Qingzi brandished his sword to block!

"Bang!"

The golden blur brushed through the Top Quality Immortal Sword and was shot into Yu Qingzi's stomach.

Too fast!

It was so fast that Yu Qingzi's Immortal Sword didn't even manage to get in contact with the Sky Piercing Finger. The Sky Piercing Finger pierced through Yu Qingzi's Top Quality Immortal Armor and, at the same time, also pierced through Yu Qingzi's Nascent Soul.

"Yu Qingzi, do you still remember that night on the Maple Moon Star? That night, your men killed my disciple. Today, I killed you. Don't you worry. Not only you, that Immortal Emperor Qian Qi would one day join you."

At the moment when Yu Qingzi's soul began to scatter, Qin Yu's voice transmission sounded in Yu Qingzi's mind.

"It's you..." Yu Qingzi's eyes were wide open. He then collapsed with a loud bang.

Yu Qingzi died on the spot!

Qin Yu coldly glanced at the Yu Qingzi who died uncontented and with his eyes open; he started to remember Liu Hanshu. "Foolish disciple, those three Immortal Emperors from that night will all be buried with you. Not one of them will be able to escape. Now... only one remains." All of a sudden, Qin Yu disappeared from the scene.

Immortal Emperor Bing Lian and Immortal Emperor Yu Fan saw Yu Qingzi collapsed and Qin Yu disappeared; they were both slightly startled. In merely a moment, the two both recovered and reacted.

"Close off the Interstellar Conveying Arrays, don't let anyone escape." Immortal Emperor Bing Lian took out her Transmission Spiritual Pearl.

"Chase after him." Shouted Immortal Emperor Yu Fan coldly. He immediately rushed out of the Ice Wind Sect.

Chapter 58 – Dark Star Realm

Boundless mystic ice filled the horizon.

"Trying to chase after me?" Qin Yu turned his head and glanced at the direction of the Ice Imperial City. "Back then, even the White Haired Blood Devil found it really difficult to chase after me. Although I was using the body of my Sword Immortal Puppet, but there was not much gap between the current me and the Sword Immortal Puppet."

Qin Yu was at the middle stage of the Black Hole Realm. However, if one were to only compare the body, then even that level six Immortal Emperor, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan, was also inferior to him. Adding onto the fact that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan doesn't even possess a Divine Artifact, it was very normal for him to be thrown off by Qin Yu's speed.

"Sure enough, the Interstellar Conveying Arrays have closed." With a sweep of his Immortal Awareness, Qin Yu discovered that the Interstellar Conveying Arrays have been completely closed. Without the special techniques to start the Interstellar Conveying Arrays, no matter how strong he was, it would still be impossible for him to use them.

"Seems like I can only use Greater Teleportation."

Through the map that was given to him by Ao Wuming, Qin Yu knew of all the major planets surrounding White Ice Star.

"Don't you dare escape!" An angry shout sounded. A palm was struck toward Qin Yu once more. It was Immortal Emperor Yu Fan.

Seeing the Immortal Emperor Yu Fan that had suddenly appeared, Qin Yu was shocked. "How could this be? I had already restrained my power and my soul had also assimilated into the Meteoric Tear, how did this Immortal Emperor Yu Fan find me?"

Qin Yu was unable to understand. However, he also cannot stay stunned at this moment.

Divine Sword Sky Piercer appeared on Qin Yu's foot. He then turned into a ray of light and disappeared into the horizon.

Qin Yu didn't dare to use Greater Teleportation on the battlefield.

"Trying to escape? Humph, even if you were to be able to escape from Emperor Yu and the Mystic Emperor, I would still not allow you to escape from me." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan looked at the direction that Qin Yu disappeared from and coldly laughed. He then immediately started to chase after Qin Yu again.

"Bing Lian, you don't need to chase anymore, just leave it all to me." At the same time, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan sent a sound transmission over his Immortal Awareness to Immortal Emperor Bing Lian.

Immortal Emperor Bing Lian who had chased halfway immediately stopped. "Big brother, if that guy is to be very powerful, it's better for you to send a transmission to Emperor Yu. Furthermore, we still have to report the death of Yu Qingzi to Emperor Yu."

"Right, I know."

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan took out his Transmission Spiritual Pearl. While he was chasing Qin Yu, he started to send a transmission to Emperor Yu.

"Go!"

Seeing that he had already left Immortal Emperor Yu Fan far behind, Qin Yu started to execute the Greater Teleportation. Immediately, he disappeared from the endless cold wind.

The target of his Greater Teleportation was a planet that's a bit far from the White Ice Star — Green Tree Star. Green Tree Star was in the same galaxy as the White Ice Star. There was a more than a dozen planets between them.

On the Green Tree Star was numerous giant trees. Each one of the tree was over several hundred meters tall. The whole Green Tree Star was covered by an endless amount of green. It was a wonderful sight.

"How strange, how did this Immortal Emperor Yu Fan managed to find where I am?" Qin Yu stood on top of a large tree. He was very confused. "Even Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya were unable to find me after I vanish my aura. How did this Immortal Emperor Yu Fan found me?"

Possessing the Meteoric Tear, Qin Yu's ability to conceal himself was always something that he was most proud of.

However now, he was instead discovered by that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan. How could Qin Yu not be vexed and confused?

"Could it be... that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was blinding chasing after me and coincidentally managed to find me?" The more Qin Yu thought about it, the more he think that was the case. "Mn, that must be it, he must've just been lucky."

Suddenly —

A silhouette was shot over toward him at a rapid speed from afar. Qin Yu's sensitive Immortal Awareness immediately discovered the incoming person.

This incoming person was unexpectedly Immortal Emperor Yu Fan!

"How could this be?" Qin Yu was once again stunned.

He arrived on the Green Tree Star via Greater Teleportation, how did this Immortal Emperor Yu Fan find out that he was on the Green Tree Star?

A golden ray of light was shot toward Qin Yu. Qin Yu immediately rushed to dodge. It was Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's Immortal Sword. Qin Yu didn't want to fight against this level six Immortal Emperor at all.

Killing a level six Immortal Emperor? Qin Yu knew that his strength was still insufficient for that.

Whether it's the knowledge and comprehension of 'domains' or his attack power, they were both much weaker. On the Ice Wind Sect, his opponent used merely a Top Quality Immortal Sword and was able to block his Sky Piercing Finger. The gap of strength between them was obvious.

"Who are you? Why must you kill Yu Qingzi? If you have the ability and courage, announce who you are." Shouted Immortal Emperor Yu Fan via voice transmission.

Actually, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan also had a headache. "This guy's fleeing speed was certainly fast. It was truly hard for me to catch him. Seems like I could only ask for help from Green Blooded Sword Immortal, Emperor Yu and them. Unfortunately, Emperor Yu was still back in the headquarters, was several star fields away from here and cannot come here in a short period of time."

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan felt helpless.

Right now, he merely wanted to know Qin Yu's name so that they can chase after him in the future.

Qin Yu continued to flee, at the same time, he sent a voice transmission. "Yu Fan, are you dumb? You wanted me to announce my name? If you have the ability, find it out yourself, bye!" Qin Yu once again threw Immortal Emperor Yu Fa off with his speed.

"This scoundrel." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan grew angry.

Since he was unable to keep up with his opponent's speed, what then could he do?

Qin Yu flew to a very far distance at a stretch and got rid of the Immortal Emperor Yu Fan. Seeing that the surrounding space was stable, he immediately used Greater Teleportation to once again flee far away.

...

"If he were to be able to chase after me again, then it would be truly strange." Qin Yu sat on top of a rock. He was feeling grudgingly yet nevertheless still spread out his Immortal Awareness to see whether if that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan would once come chasing after him.

In a mere second!

A man suddenly appeared several hundred meters from Qin Yu. Evidently, that this man also used something along the lines of Greater Teleportation.

"Immortal Emperor Yu Fan came chasing after me again?" Qin Yu felt a major headache.

What exactly was happening?

However, he was unable to spend time thinking about it as that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan had already arrived by him.

"I really can't be at peace unless I kill you." Qin Yu was furious.

Qin Yu pointed his finger toward Immortal Emperor Yu Fan!

A golden blur was suddenly shot out. Following along the straight trajectory, it was fired rapidly toward Immortal Emperor Yu Fan. That golden blur was unusually strange. It appeared to be going in a straight line but there was always a floating sensation to it.

"Break!"

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan pointed with his sword. The sharp end of his sword hit the golden blur directly. With a slight tremble of his body, he had broken Qin Yu's attack.

"Your comprehension toward domains was pretty good, unfortunately... when compared to mine, the gap between us was still very far." Said Immortal Emperor Yu Fan as he laughed lightly. His sword strike earlier didn't appear to be fast at all but was able to block the extremely fast Sky Piercing Finger.

This was precisely the difference between realm levels.

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan saw that this time Qin Yu surprisingly did not immediately flee and was secretly delighted. He started to rapidly fly toward Qin Yu.

At the same time, he launched his domain!

The strength of a domain was dependent on its range. With Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's strength, if he were to create a domain that's several thousand miles wide, while it might appeared very good, it would actually not cause much menace toward those that was encompassed in his domain.

Contrary, if Immortal Emperor Yu Fan were to execute a domain that's several hundred meters wide, then the domain would be small and it would also be a lot more threatening toward those within the domain. However, as the domain was small, it was also harder for one to try to contain the enemy within the domain's range.

This time around, Qin Yu did not flee. Instead, he charge to attack. This caused the distance between the two to be very close.

"Let's see you try to run away again this time around." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's gaze turned fierce.

Immediately, Qin Yu felt as if the surrounding space had turned into a swamp, his movements had received a very large hindrance.

Stepping on the Divine Sword, Sky Piercer!

Flee!

"You're not getting away this time around. You who dared to kill a subordinate of Emperor Yu is seeking your own death." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan immediately rushed over. His speed was even faster than Qin Yu's. Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's speed did not receive any restriction whereas Qin Yu's was. It was clear what the result of this chase would be.

"Trying to chase after me?" Qin Yu also tried to use his 'domain.'

However, his comprehension toward the space was nowhere near that of the level six Immortal Emperor Yu Fan and was completely unable to use his own 'domain' to break apart his opponent's 'domain.'

The distance between the two was rapidly growing closer.

Qin Yu grew anxious.

"Humph, let's see how you're going to flee this time. Earlier when you saw me, instead of running you decided to battle me. That was the worst mistake that you had ever made." A golden glowing talisman seal pattern appeared on Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's left hand. The Immortal Sword that he was stepping on also started to radiate a golden light.

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was completely confident that he would be able to capture Qin Yu this time around.

However —

A gravity that was much stronger than that of a 'domain' suddenly descended upon him. This gravity was so strong that it caused Immortal Emperor Yu Fan who was completely unprepared to suddenly sink and smash onto the ground.

Seizing the opportunity, Qin Yu immediately distanced himself from the 'domain's' range.

"Huff!"

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan could only watch as Qin Yu disappeared from his sight.

"Gravitational Domain, it's actually Gravitational Domain. Could this Qin Yu actually be a person of the Dark Star Realm? Other than the Dark Star Realm, there shouldn't be any other places that is proficient in Gravitational Domain." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan had a solemn expression.

[TL: okay, IET, bro, you be mistaken. Yu Fan didn't know our MC is called Qin Yu.]

As a level six Immortal Emperor, he knew a lot about this Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

An Emperor level expert from the Dark Star Realm surprisingly came to kill Yu Qingzi; Immortal Emperor Yu Fan knew about the seriousness of this matter.

"When did Yu Qingzi provoke the people of the Dark Star Realm? I must certainly report this matter to His Majesty. No, I must capture that assassin before that. I need to understand thoroughly about this situation." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's frame of mind was completely different now.

Earlier, he merely wanted to kill Qin Yu.

However now... even if Qin Yu didn't attack him, he would still not dare to kill Qin Yu.

When comparing defending its clansmen, compared to the Demon Realm's Dragon Clan, the legendary Dark Star Realm's people were even more protective of their clansmen. Whoever dared to kill a single clansman of theirs, then likely all of the experts from the Dark Star Realm would immediately move out.

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan still remembered that an Immortal Emperor under Mystic Emperor killed a person of the Dark Star Realm that had the strength of a Golden Immortal and ultimately, Mystic Emperor was forced to present that Immortal Emperor to the Dark Star Realm and allow them to handle him as they wished.

Fortunately, the people of the Dark Star Realm didn't like to be associate themselves with the matters of the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm and the Demon Realm. Otherwise, who knows how chaotic this Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm would've become.

...

Qin Yu once again used Greater Teleportation and fled to a new planet.

"My comprehension toward the space was still much inferior to this Immortal Emperor Yu Fan. The difference between the power of our domains was unexpectedly so much. In his domain, I could only rely on this Gravitational Domain." Qin Yu was filled with helplessness.

At the same time, his Immortal Awareness was carefully observing the surroundings.

Sure enough... Immortal Emperor Yu Fan also teleported here.

Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Yu immediately got on his Divine Sword Sky Piercer and started to flee.

"Friend from the Dark Star Realm, how did Yu Qingzi anger you to make you kill him? Rest assured, I would not attack you." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's voice transmission sounded in Qin Yu's mind.

"Not attack, whoever believes that is an idiot." Qin Yu instead sped up. Right after he shake off Immortal Emperor Yu Fan, he immediately used Greater Teleportation and once again arrived on another planet.

Only after arriving on a new planet, did Qin Yu had a reaction.

"He called me friend from the Dark Star Realm?" Qin Yu was startled. "Dark Star Realm, how did he come to think that I'm from the Dark Star Realm?" Hearing the words, Dark Star Realm, Qin Yu remembered the map that was given to him by Ao Wuming.

The map that was given to him by Ao Wuming was the one that was drawn by the Dragon Clan through immense effort. Almost all of the routes in the Immortal, Devil and Demon world were on this map. Of course... it's only 'almost.'

It didn't have the routes for all of the places.

There's a place that they didn't have on routes on the map, the Dark Star Realm!

In the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, twenty percent of the region belonged to the Immortal Realm, twenty percent belonged to the Devil Realm and fifty percent belonged to the Demon Realm. As for the ten percent that remained, it was the legendary 'Dark Star Realm,' the Dark Star Realm that didn't have much of a reputation!

The people of the Dark Star Realm would not leave the Dark Star Realm under normal circumstances.

The people of the outside world were also not allowed to enter the Dark Star Realm.

Even regular Immortal Emperors, they only knew that there was a mysterious region within the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm that they cannot enter. However, those Immortal Emperors of ordinary status also didn't know that this mysterious region was called the 'Dark Star Realm.'

[TL: I would like to make this clear again. by Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, IET meant the 'ascended' realm, which composed of all 3 realms plus dark star area. Don't ask me why he changes his terms all the time. Bad writing I suppose. Also, why would he name Qin Yu's previous skill level the same as a place?]

"I am a person of the Dark Star Realm? How did I not know that?" Qin Yu slightly smiled.

On the map that Ao Wuming gave, there was not much introduction of the Dark Star Realm. It merely had a single sentence: 'do not enter the Dark Star Realm.'

The intention of the Dragon Clan was very clear, if one were not to enter the Dark Star Realm, then they would not anger the people of the Dark Star Realm. After all, the people of the Dark Star Realm, unless for a reason against their will, they would not leave the Dark Star Realm.

"I'm not going to think about this matter anymore; how come that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan could always find where I teleported to?" Qin Yu started to ponder.

"Friend from the Dark Star Realm..."

"He's here again." Right after hearing the sound transmission in his mind, Qin Yu immediately stepped onto his Divine Sword Sky Piercer and started to flee again. While he was fleeing, Qin Yu was still pondering about how this Immortal Emperor Yu Fan kept finding him.

...

After continuously using Greater Teleportation to three planets.

"I finally arrived on the most northwest end of the Whirlwind Galaxy. This is the closest location to the border of the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy. I should be able to use Greater Teleportation to teleport there at once." Qin Yu followed the map and found out that the closest border of the Whirlwind Galaxy to the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy was here.

Seeing as he's about to arrive on the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy, Qin Yu's heart also grew a bit more calm.

Exactly as how Qin Yu had anticipated, Qin Yu stopped for a moment and that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan had already appeared on this planet.

"Friend from the Dark Star Realm..." Said Immortal Emperor Yu Fan with a face full of smiles.

"Sigh, shut up." Said Qin Yu while holding his hand out. "To the northwest of here was the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy. The Angelica Dahurica Galaxy is the Cyan Emperor's galaxy. Enough, I shall take my leave." After saying those words, Qin Yu immediately stepped onto the Divine Sword Sky Piercer and started to rapidly flee.

After a short period of time, Qin Yu did a Greater Teleportation and left the Whirlwind Galaxy and arrived on the Cyan Emperor's territory — Angelica Dahurica Galaxy.

"Cyan Emperor's territory." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan frowned. He remembered Emperor Yu's words — 'Unless it's important, do not attack others on the Cyan Emperor's territory. For the time being, I do not wish to become enemies with Cyan Emperor.'

"I won't attack, I think it should be fine for me to only give chase." Promptly, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan did a Greater Teleportation.

Chapter 59 – Crescent Moon Bay

Angelica Dahurica Galaxy was a galaxy on the western edge of the Plate Roe Star Field. The core planet of this Angelica Dahurica Galaxy was the 'Jade Wave Star.' As for the border planet that Qin Yu had just stepped foot on, it was not that far away from the Jade Wave Star.

With a Greater Teleportation, Qin Yu appeared within the borders of the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy. A divine light suddenly flashed through his brain that had been in a confusion the whole time.

"Palm strike, that's right, from the beginning till the end, I had only truly came into contact with this Immortal Emperor Yu Fan once from his palm strike." Qin Yu immediately lowered his head to look. There was nothing special on his chest area.

Qin Yu started to use his Immortal Awareness to closely investigate the surface of the clothes that covered his chest.

An extremely small golden stain was stuck on his body. It was so small that Qin Yu was unable to sense any energy reaction from this golden stain. Had it not been his suspicion through being always followed, Qin Yu would had only thought that this golden stain was just some dust and nothing else.

"Tsk tsk..." An extremely sharp Black Hole energy was rushed forth from Qin Yu's body. It directly attacked that golden stain.

As the golden stain was attacked by the Black Hole energy, it unexpectedly and suddenly shined. Qin Yu was shocked as he saw the talisman seal engraving pattern that was previously on Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's palm appearing on the outside of the golden stain.

The attack failed!

"This energy was certainly strange, this attack of mine actually didn't manage to eliminate it." Qin Yu was unable to refrain his astonishment. He knew very well of how strong the attack power of the Black Hole energy was. However, to his surprise, he was unable to eliminate this strange golden stain.

"Could it be that this is Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's Heavenly Fan Seal Technique's nervelessness? At regular occasions, this golden stain does not even give off a bit of energy. However, when I attacked it, it burst off that much energy."

Qin Yu was astonished but he didn't feel nervous. A fire without source, how could it last for a long time?

"Friend from the Dark Star Realm, please have a chat with me. I would definitely not approach you..." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan once again appeared using his Great Teleportation. At the moment when Qin Yu attacked 'Heavenly Fan Seal Technique's' special 'Fan Seal,' he already knew about it.

"You are truly boring."

Qin Yu felt a bit helpless, he didn't want to hide into the Jiang Lan's Realm and waste time. However, even if he were to pick up his Divine Sword Sky Piercer and fight against Immortal Emperor Yu Fan, he was aware that the possibility of him winning was awfully low.

Fortunately, Qin Yu had already discovered the reason why he was being caught up every time.

"Immortal Emperor Yu Fan, this Heavenly Fan Seal Technique of yours was certainly amazing." Qin Yu started to laughed. It was a rare sight. In a breath, several Black Hole energies ruthlessly pounded against that 'Fan Seal.'

Seeing this scene, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan knew that he would not be able to catch up to this man in front of him again.

"Friend from the Dark Star Realm, can you please tell me what exactly was the hatred between you and Yu Qingzi?" Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's face showed a friendly smile. He tried his best to make himself appear more amiable.

However, Qin Yu didn't bother to pay him any attention. Instead, he looked at Immortal Emperor Yu Fan with a puzzled appearance. "My hatred, why must I tell you?"

"You..." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's face turned red.

Qin Yu's earlier sentence was clearly contained tones of ridicule, how could Immortal Emperor Yu Fan not be able to hear that?

"Ah, finally eliminated it. Immortal Emperor Yu Fan, to be honest, I admire this technique of yours. I reckon that there aren't many people in the Immortal Realm that knew this move." Qin Yu used his hand to pat the cloth on his chest.

Fan Seal only contained a certain amount of energy within it. Although it was hard to eliminate, but after being continuously attacked by Qin Yu, its energy was being continuously consumed. Finally, it gave off a 'bang' sound and scattered.

"Sigh, friend from the Dark Star Realm, I knew that there was hatred between you and Yu Qingzi. However, it is better to squash enmity rather than keeping it alive. If you were to make the matter clear, His Majesty, Emperor Yu, would certainly settle this matter magnanimously." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan tried his best to persuade Qin Yu.

Reaching this point, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan knew that it was hard for him to catch up to Qin Yu again.

"Settle magnanimously? Emperor Yu is that good of a person?" Qin Yu eyes contained sarcasm.

No matter how magnanimous Emperor Yu was, he would still never let go of the Bewitching God Painting that Qin Yu's possessed. In order to obtain the Bewitching God Painting, Emperor Yu even flat out turned hostile toward Xue Tianya and fought a great battle against him. It was evident that Emperor Yu wanted this Bewitching God Painting very badly.

"His Majesty, Emperor Yu, is very broad-minded and open. He would definitely not..."

Seeing that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was still trying to persuade him, Qin Yu raised his hand up and said unconcernedly. "Enough, I don't have time to spout rubbish with you. Farewell." After saying those words, Qin Yu rapidly fled. Afterward, with a Greater Teleportation, he disappeared.

Qin Yu's next destination, 'Jade Wave Star.'

Jade Wave Star was the core planet of the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy. Naturally, there are a large amount of Interstellar Conveying Arrays on the Jade Wave Star. Its transportation was also very developed. The amount of Interstellar Conveying Arrays that leads to other Galaxies was also many.

"Friend from the Dark Star Realm..." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan wanted to follow and chase after Qin Yu.

"Seems like I can only have Emperor Yu settle this himself. I wonder where he is now." Back on the White Ice Star, he originally wanted to send a transmission to Emperor Yu. Unfortunately, he did not manage to.

It was because the distance between him and Emperor Yu was too great. Only by entering the 'Transmission Secret Array' could he successfully send a transmission. Finally, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan decided to let Immortal Emperor Bing Lian report this matter to Emperor Yu.

From the transmission sent to him by Immortal Emperor Bing Lian, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan came to know that at the moment of the transmission, Emperor Yu was still at their headquarters. However, Emperor Yu had already set off.

With Emperor Yu's speed, after this long period of time, it was likely that he would've passed by one or two Star Fields already.

Suddenly, a earth-shattering Immortal Awareness arrived from the west and pervaded the air. It pass through the outer space and arrived on the planet that Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was on. That enormous Immortal Awareness was immediately locked onto Immortal Emperor Yu Fan.

"Yu Fan!" A dull voice sounded in Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's mind.

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was startled, he had sensed how powerful that person was just by coming in contact with his Immortal Awareness. That power was beyond imagination... that person was certainly able to kill him like an ant.

"I am unaware of who senior might be?..." At this moment, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan still didn't know which mysterious expert had appeared. This expert was actually able to make him Immortal Awareness pass through the cosmic space and cover him.

"Cyan Emperor." It was a dull voice once again.

Hearing the two words 'Cyan Emperor,' Immortal Emperor Yu Fan felt a powerlessness throughout his whole body. To be confronted with the Cyan Emperor who had cultivated for an exceptionally long period of time, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan could only be utmost respectful. He said. "I am uncertain as for what senior seeks from this junior?"

"Yu Fan, you can stop chasing after that person from earlier." Said the Cyan Emperor indifferently.

"Senior Cyan Emperor, that man killed Yu Qingzi of the Thirty Six Lords that served Emperor Yu." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was not an individual who would easily retreat. "He killed Yu Qingzi, how could I just give up chasing him like this?"

While those were the words that came out from his mouth, in actuality, even if he wanted to chase, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was unable chase after Qin Yu.

"Yu Fan, with that man's skills, chances are that even if you wanted to chase after him, you'll still be unable to. When I wanted you to not chase anymore, I also wanted you to tell Emperor Yu that when in my territory, he'd best not touch this man. As for after this man left my territory, regardless of what you all planned to do, it would no longer be of my concern." Cyan Emperor's voice clearly resounded in Immortal Emperor Yu Fan's mind.

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan grew puzzled.

Why would the Cyan Emperor involve himself in this matter? Could it be that this person from the Dark Star Realm possessed an extraordinary status?

"Senior Cyan Emperor, this junior is unable to respond on behalf of His Majesty Emperor Yu. However, this junior is able to help you relay these words to His Majesty Emperor Yu. As for how His Majesty Emperor Yu would react, this junior is unable to make any promises." Said Immortal Emperor Yu Fan very respectfully.

"Mn, relaying the message would suffice." Cyan Emperor's voice grew faintly discernable. "Remember, it's best for you to leave the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy soon."

"Yes."

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan didn't dare to refuse.

Traveling night and day, Emperor Yu was rushing over to the Plate Roe Star Field without stopping. When Yu Qingzi was killed, Immortal Emperor Bing Lian used the Transmission Secret Array within the Ice Wind Sect to notify Emperor Yu about what had happened. Right after obtaining the information, Emperor Yu had already felt that it was a problematic situation. With the Green Blooded Sword Immortal not being present and Immortal Emperor Yu Fan being unable to resolve the matter, he could only set out personally.

After all... Yu Qingzi was one of his Thirty Six Lords.

Furthermore, Yu Qingzi was his only influence in the Indigo Bay Star Field. Only the Silver String Galaxy within the Indigo Bay Star Field was Emperor Yu's territory and the people who control that was precisely the Jade Sword Sect.

Emperor Yu speed was very fast. Majority of journey, he used his Greater Teleportation to travel. Only when he had to travel a long distance would he use the regional Interstellar Conveying Array to travel. With the combination of Greater Teleportations and Interstellar Conveying Arrays, in a short while, Emperor Yu had passed through half the distance.

On a barren planet, Emperor Yu suddenly stopped.

"What, lost him?" Emperor Yu was holding the Transmission Spiritual Pearl while frowning.

At this moment, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan used a Greater Teleportation, then took a Interstellar Conveying Array and returned to the Ice Wind Sect of the White Ice Star. He was currently in front of the Transmission Secret Arrays and reporting to Emperor Yu.

"Yes, that's right. Your Majesty, that man's speed was extremely fast. This subordinate was unable to catch up to him." Replied Immortal Emperor Yu Fan through the transmission.

"Yu Fan, once your 'Heavenly Fan Seal Technique' managed to hit a target, your 'Fan Seal' would be attached to the body of the enemy. How could you possibly lose him?" Emperor Yu knew very well about this unique skill of Immortal Emperor Yu Fan. Once the Fan Seal were attached to the body, it would not emit even the slightest amount of energy. Under normal circumstances, it was simply impossible for one's Immortal Awareness to detect it.

"At the beginning, that man did not detect the Fan Seal. However, the Fan Seal was still discovered and broken through in the end. Your Majesty, this subordinate have a very important matter to report." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan remembered the 'Dark Star Realm' and started to grow anxious.

"Oh? What matter?" Emperor Yu stood motionless on the barren planet.

"That man who killed Yu Qingzi, I believe... he should be someone from the Dark Star Realm." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan spoke what he had deduced.

Emperor Yu's expression slightly changed. "Someone from the Dark Star Realm? Why would you come to such an conclusion?"

"Your Majesty, that man actually used Gravitational Domain while fighting against this subordinate. Your Majesty, you also know that the Gravitational Domain was a special ability possessed by individuals from the Dark Star Realm." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan spoke out his reasoning.

Emperor Yu's heart moved.

"At the moment when Bing Lian reported to me, she had said that man had received one of your palm strike but, as if the palm strike did nothing on him, he still nonchalantly killed Yu Qingzi. Is that correct?" Emperor Yu instead asked about this matter.

Immortal Emperor Yu Fan was confused as to why Emperor Yu would ask about the matters that happened before instead of the matter with the Dark Star Realm; however, he still send a transmission and replied. "Your Majesty, that is exactly what happened."

"Quickly, tell me, where is he now?" Emperor Yu immediately sent a transmission over.

Sensing Emperor Yu's impatience, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan immediately replied. "Your Majesty, that man had already arrived on the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy."

"Angelica Dahurica Galaxy." Emperor Yu frowned.

"Your Majesty, when I was on the border planet of the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy, Cyan Emperor sent his Immortal Awareness pass the outer space of the cosmos and directly sent a voice transmission to this subordinate. He told me to leave the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy and at the same time to relay a message to Your Majesty." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan didn't dare to hide this matter.

"Speak."

"Your Majesty, the Cyan Emperor said that he wishes for Your Majesty to not attack that man in his territory. However, once that man is out from his territory, then regardless of how Your Majesty wanted to handle that man, the Cyan Emperor would not care in the slightest." Immortal Emperor Yu Fan relayed the message.

"Oh."

Emperor Yu who originally wanted to immediately set off for the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy actually stopped. How two thick brows was deeply creased. "Yu Fan, you can stay in the Ice Wind Sect at ease and wait for my orders." After saying those words, Emperor Yu put away his Transmission Spiritual Pearl.

"That Cyan Emperor also want to interfere?" Emperor Yu was carefully pondering.

Both Emperor Yu and the Mystic Emperor were afraid of the Cyan Emperor's strength.

Ten millions of years ago, when Emperor Yu and the Mystic Emperor were nobodies, the Cyan Emperor was already a big shot of the Immortal Realm. He was a level eight Immortal Emperor level super expert. So many years had passed... no one would think that the Cyan Emperor had not improved.

Furthermore, the Cyan Emperor from over ten millions of years ago was already a big shot in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. So what would he be now that it's ten millions of years later?

"During the time when we explored the Bewitching God Temple, Cyan Emperor did not participate in it. Even when sending people to the Mortal Realm to break through the Ni Yan Realm, Cyan Emperor also did not do that... in all these years, it seems like the Cyan Emperor didn't have much interest in the Bewitching God Temple."

Emperor Yu was unable to understand.

The Cyan Emperor who didn't have any interest in the Bewitching God Temple, would he now try to seize the Bewitching God Painting from Qin Yu?

"That's unlikely. Humph, this old fart Chi Qing had received a treasure of mine back then. He owe me a favor that I had never allowed him to return, it's about time for him to return the favor now." Emperor Yu did a Greater Teleportation and disappeared from the barren planet.

Angelica Dahurica Galaxy, Jade Wave Star.

With a Greater Teleportation, Qin Yu arrived on this planet. His frame of mind became more relaxed and he began to leisurely walk among the endless forests and mountains of the Jade Wave Star. Occasionally, Immortals would fly past him in the sky.

"You are called Qin Yu, right?" A amiable voice resounded in Qin Yu's mind.

Qin Yu was slightly startled. "Who are you?" Earlier, he had only given off a little bit of his aura when using Greater Teleportation. He had immediately concealed his aura afterwards. However, he was still discovered. The strength of this person who discovered him was certainly extraordinary.

"You can call me the Cyan Emperor."

Qin Yu was slightly startled, the person sending the voice transmission was actually the Cyan Emperor.

Qin Yu knew that this Angelica Dahurica Galaxy was the Cyan Emperor's territory; however, Cyan Emperor possessed a lot of galaxies and his true headquarters was also not located on this Angelica Dahurica Galaxy. Thus, Qin Yu had never expected that Cyan Emperor would be here.

"Senior Cyan Emperor, is there anything you need from this junior?" Qin Yu decided to speak with manners.

"If you don't mind, can you come to the Jade Wave Star's Crescent Moon Bay. I have a old friend here who wanted to meet you. And I... also wanted to meet you." Cyan Emperor's voice was very amiable.

"Crescent Moon Bay?" Qin Yu recalled that Dragon Clan's map.

On the Dragon Clan's map, it had such a sentence for the introduction of the Jade Wave Star: Crescent Moon Bay, it exist in the deepest part of the Jade Wave Star's endless ocean. It was a secluded place that the Cyan Emperor occasionally reside.

"This junior would immediately go there." Qin Yu immediately replied respectfully. At the same time, he was also confused. Cyan Emperor's old friend wanted to see him, who was this old friend?

Chapter 60 – Meeting

Crescent Moon Bay, the deepest part of the Jade Wave Star's endless oceans was a Crescent Island. It was the special residence of the Cyan Emperor. The Crescent Moon Bay was distinguishably decorated and also possessed many different kinds of flowers and planets.

In a flash of an eye, Qin Yu had already flew to the airspace of the Crescent Moon Bay.

"What an beautiful place." From the sky, Qin Yu saw Jade colored water, Green colored land and all kinds of flowers and plants growing naturally. It was like an elegant place of paintings.

Qin Yu descended and landed on the edge of the Crescent Moon Bay.

"Are you perhaps path friend Qin Yu?" A white clothed youth walked over with a face full of smiles.

"I am humbly Qin Yu. I came over following the request of senior Cyan Emperor." Said Qin Yu very courteously. He didn't want to offend anyone in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. However, there are some people... that Qin Yu must offend.

Emperor Yu and the Mystic Emperor, they are the final task entrusted by Emperor Ni Yang. On top of that, there's his disciple's death. They had determined that Qin Yu would oppose Emperor Yu.

As for the Cyan Emperor, Qin Yu didn't want to become his enemy.

"Sure enough, the amount of experts under the Cyan Emperor is numerous. A mere youth was actually a level seven Immortal Emperor, how truly frightening." Qin Yu felt a shiver in his heart. A youth from the Crescent Moon Bay was already so powerful and already at the same level as the Green Blooded Sword Immortal.

This Cyan Emperor's strength, wasn't that a bit too frightening?

"Master is currently waiting for path friend Qin Yu beside the cold pond." Said the white clothed youth. He had a very amiable smile on his face. "Path friend Qin Yu, please follow me."

"Then I shall trouble you." Qin Yu followed behind the white clothed youth.

The Crescent Moon Bay was located within the endless amount of ocean of the Jade Wave Star. Thus, it naturally appeared to be small like a tiny boat. It appeared as if just a wave would be enough to cover the entire island. However, the Crescent Moon Bay was in fact very big. It had a circumference of close to a thousand miles.

Following beside the white clothed youth, Qin Yu passed through a bamboo house, flew through a lake within the island, and passed through the ocean filled with loose waves. Finally, revolving around multiple garrets, he descended; following the winding corridor, he arrived on the remote cold pond.

The cold pond was not large. It was about seven or eight meters wide and a hundred meters long. It's just that the cold pond was filled with pressing cold airs. Even Qin Yu felt a shiver in his body. What's strange was that even in such a cold temperature, this cold pond did not freeze. Instead, there was numerous fishes swimming in the cold pond.

By the cold pond was a man in a cyan garment. He was currently holding a fishing rod and angling without moving.

"Do not disturb master, please wait a while." The white clothed youth pulled Qin Yu and said to him via voice transmission. Qin Yu nodded and then quietly stayed on the side of the cold pond and waited.

"This humble self is Qin Yu, I am unknown as to who brother might be..." Qin Yu waited for a while and grew bored and began to try to converse with the white clothed youth via voice transmission.

"Ah, sorry, I still haven't told you my name. I am the Cyan Emperor's fourth disciple, Song Shi." The white clothed youth gave Qin Yu an apologetic smile. "For me to forget about introducing myself to path friend Qin Yu, I am deeply ashamed."

[TL: Song Shi means turquoise gemstone.]

"Path brother Song Shi need not mind." Qin Yu did not mind at all.

What Qin Yu wanted to know the most right now was... who exactly was the old friend of the Cyan Emperor that wanted to meet him?

"Path brother Song Shi, Cyan Emperor had me come to the Crescent Moon Bay to meet a person, do you know who I am to meet?" Asked Qin Yu. From Qin Yu's perspective, Song Shi was a level seven Immortal Emperor and was likely the Cyan Emperor's right or left hand man; thus, he ought to know about it.

"Path friend Qin Yu, this was something that I truly don't know about. In a while, master would naturally tell you about it." Song Shi had a simple and honest smile on his face.

Qin Yu could only nod. He continued to patiently wait for the Cyan Emperor to finish fishing.

After two hours.

"Got one." The cyan clothed man's voice sounded. At the same time, the fishing rod was pulled backwards. What appeared on the fishing hook was a six inch long fish with three silver stripes on its backside.

"Haha, once little brother Qin Yu arrived, the luck had immediately turned good. I actually managed to catch a silvery light fish, and a level three one too." The cyan clothed man laid down his fishing rod and turned around.

The white clothed youth smiled as he said respectfully. "Usually, it would take several days for master to catch a silvery light fish. Today, he caught one in a single day; it was certainly a rare event. Path friend Qin Yu, this is my master." The white clothed youth gave an introduction to Qin Yu.

The cyan clothed man flipped his hand around and took out a bamboo flute. He nimbly flipped it around a couple times over his hand. His gaze, however, was fixated on Qin Yu. "You are Qin Yu?" From Cyan Emperor's expression, it was clear that he also held a deep interest in Qin Yu.

"This junior is precisely Qin Yu. I pay my respects to senior Cyan Emperor." Said Qin Yu as he cupped his hands respectfully.

Cyan Emperor clicked his tongue and said. "I remembered that ten years ago, a great battle appeared on the Blue Snow Star of the Indigo Bay Star Field. In that battle, there were two people, one of which was shouting that the Thunder Hammer Immortal Emperor would kill Qin Yu..."

Qin Yu was startled.

Could it be that this Cyan Emperor knew about Qin Yu? However, according to what Qin Yu knew, this Cyan Emperor had never dispatched anyone to the Mortal Realm back then.

"That Feng Yu and Xue Tianya was certainly interesting; they thought that they could kill you easily but who would've known that you would be able to escape from them. Haha... now that I've seen you, your reputation was certainly well-deserved." Cyan Emperor looked at Qin Yu as he praised.

Hearing the Cyan Emperor's praise, Qin Yu immediately replied. "This junior's strength was still very insufficient, for me to be able to escape with my life that day, it was all because of luck."

"Luck, what is luck?" Cyan Emperor shook his head. It seemed that he didn't approve of this at all. "No matter what, you should not sum things up as being lucky. For example opportunity, even if opportunity were to present itself in front of someone, that person still needed to grasp it. Immortal Emperor Ni Yang's luck was certainly good, his fortune changed as he turned from a regular Immortal Emperor to one of the great Emperors of the Immortal Realm. However, how did he die in the end? Some says it's luck, but I say it's because he's not careful enough!"

It seemed that Cyan Emperor was very knowledgeable about the cause of Immortal Emperor Ni Yang's death.

"In the Bewitching God Temple, no matter when, one cannot be distracted in the slightest... back when I was younger, there are more than one or two individuals that died in the Bewitching God Temple because of a slight distraction." Cyan Emperor appeared to have recalled the memories of his youth.

Qin Yu was listening attentively.

Back when the Cyan Emperor was young? How many aeons ago was that? Those experts of the same generation as the Cyan Emperor, they ought to have either ascended to the Divine Realm ,have died after failing the Divine Tribulation or have died due to some other reason.

Bewitching God Temple, what is that?

However, upon hearing the Cyan Emperor's words, Qin Yu also agreed with it. That Immortal Emperor Ni Yang had always said that his luck was bad, but in actuality, he had obtained the Bewitching God Painting, the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas and many Divine Artifacts, how could he possibly have bad luck?

"No matter what it is, when it came from the Divine Realm, it cannot be treated lightly. A poisonous insect of the Divine Realm, even the people of the Divine Realm would be injured if they were to be poisoned by it, let alone an Immortal Emperor. Even a dead poisonous insect is not something to be looked down upon. Ni Yang, who can you blame if you decided to court death?" Cyan Emperor muttered to himself.

Suddenly, the Cyan Emperor woke up from his self-muttering and looked toward Qin Yu. "Oh, Qin Yu, I was too immersed in my own recollection of the past that I even forgot about speaking with you. Sigh, when one grows old, one starts to like recalling the memories of the past."

Qin Yu was stupefied.

Having only met the Cyan Emperor for a short while, Qin Yu had discovered that this Cyan Emperor was not unflustered. Instead, he likes to joke around and was very witty.

"No more talking about that idiot Ni Yang anymore, Qin Yu, I'm bringing you to meet a person." Said the Cyan Emperor mysteriously.

"Senior Cyan Emperor, who is this good friend that you spoke of?" Unable to suppress his curiosity, Qin Yu asked.

The Cyan Emperor held his bamboo flute on his hand and did a couple flips over his finger; he was smiling so hard that his eyes had turned into lines. "Who? It's my good friend."

Qin Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He decided not to ask anymore.

"Song Shi, you are to immediately prepare a banquet. In these couple days, all my good friends would be coming. If you were to neglect your seniors, then you'd better be careful that I don't make you endure seclusion for a million years." Said the Cyan Emperor to Song Shi who stood to the side while smiling.

"Master's good friends?" Hearing those words, Song Shi's face immediately started to shine. "This disciple would set up the banquet immediately."

Qin Yu was however greatly surprised.

Cyan Emperor's good friends, even the level seven Immortal Emperor Song Shi have to call that group of people as 'seniors'? Who are those good friends?

Qin Yu had a kind of feeling in his heart.

That amongst this group of good friends, there most likely won't be Emperor Yu! Of course, this was merely the feeling that Qin Yu had in his heart, there was no basis at all.

"Qin Yu, follow me." Cyan Emperor was smiling as he walked by the cold pond and toward the winding corridor in the distance.

Following behind the Cyan Emperor, Qin Yu did not speak a word. He was only checking out all the places, buildings, arrangements, and so on of the Crescent Moon Bay. As he continued to check out the Crescent Moon Bay, it gave of a kind of feeling of nature that contained a thriving life force.

Seeing these sceneries, Qin Yu's mood had also turned pretty good.

"Qin Yu, we are arriving." The Cyan Emperor finally spoke. He turned around and smiled at Qin Yu. "Little brother Qin Yu, when you see that senior, you need to know how to be respectful toward your senior. That senior is an extraordinary expert."

Extraordinary expert?

Qin Yu was slightly startled. What he was startled about wasn't the fact that that man was an expert. What he was startled about was... that Cyan Emperor actually addressed that person as an 'extraordinary' expert.

"This junior understands." Qin Yu nodded.

"Mn." Cyan Emperor smiled in satisfaction. He brought Qin Yu to a flower pond. There was a limestone road by the flower pond. At the end of the flower pond and beside the limestone road was a stone table and several stone stools.

And at this moment, there was an elderly lady and a woman sitting there chatting.

"Big sister Yin Hua." The Cyan Emperor started to shout out happily from afar.

The elderly lady turned around to look toward the Cyan Emperor. She deliberately changed her expression and said. "You unrespectful toward your elders fellow. At the very least, address me as path friend Yin Hua. Instead, you decided to go and call me big sister?"

Seeing this scene, Qin Yu's expression remained the same. From his earlier conversations with the Cyan Emperor, he had already came to know the Cyan Emperor's character.

"Wife, you're here too?" Said the Cyan Emperor with a smile as he saw the woman beside the elderly lady.

That girl wore a purple gown, her hair tied in a knot, she was emitting a natural noble aura. The smile on her face would cause one to think that this dame was easily approachable.

"You still act the same even when there's guests present." This purple gowned dame sighed helplessly.

"Big sister, ever since Chi Qing came out from his seclusion training a couple days ago, his whole temperament had turned a lot more flippant and insincere. How did this come about? Sigh..." Said the purple gowned dame to the elderly lady helplessly.

"Wife —-" The Cyan Emperor's expression grew upright, he appeared to be a lot more lofty. "Wife, isn't it a bit more excessive to describe me as flippant and insincere? I merely had a change of mood after attaining a breakthrough. Enough of this, Big sister Yin Hua, didn't you want to meet little brother Qin Yu? I have brought him here."

The Cyan Emperor had been smiling amiably the whole time. Sometimes, he smiled so hard that his eyes even grew shut.

To speak the truth, Qin Yu actually prefer the Cyan Emperor with this temperament.

"Qin Yu?" The old lady looked toward Qin Yu in astonishment. "You are Qin Yu?"

At this moment, Qin Yu had also came to realization. The Cyan Emperor wanted him to come over this time was precisely because this old lady wanted to meet him. From what he had heard earlier when Cyan Emperor addressed this elderly lady as 'big sister Yin Hua,' Qin Yu thought of a person — granny Yin Hua.

"This junior is precisely Qin Yu." Said Qin Yu respectfully.

"Qin Yu, Qin Yu." The elderly lady walked to the side of Qin Yu and carefully inspected him. As if her eyes were going to see through all of him, she inspected him for a long time. "Strange, strange, strange."

The elderly lady sighed three 'strange's.

Hearing that, Qin Yu was full of confusion.

Seeing Qin Yu's confused expression, the elderly lady woke up from her thoughts. She smiled and said. "Junior have cultivated for such a short period of time yet had already obtained such an accomplishment, you could also be considered as an extraordinary genius. No wonder Yan'er was praising you to me."

Hearing 'Yan'er,' Qin Yu was certain without doubt; he immediately smiled and said respectfully. "So senior is granny Yin Hua."

"You can just address me as granny." Granny Yin Hua nodded, smiled and said. "I have heard praises about you from others numerous times and decided to ask Chi Qing to bring you to me to see. Mn, once I saw you... you can be considered to be pretty good."

Qin Yu felt wronged in his heart. "Can be considered to be pretty good?"

Qin Yu's cultivation speed was already so fast that it's astonishing, but granny Yin Hua only said 'can be considered to be pretty good.'

"Qin Yu, listen to granny." Granny Yin Hua patted Qin Yu's shoulder.

"Granny, please speak." Seeing that granny Yin Hua was so intimate to him, Qin Yu felt a bit overwhelmed by favor from a superior.

Granny Yin Hua sighed and said. "I'm not going to bother mentioning about that girl Yan'er, she doesn't even bother to cultivate at all. This time when she left, to this date, she has not even once come back to see me. With her nature, I no longer have much hope for her. Seeing a youngster like you, I wanted to let you know — you must certainly train earnestly. No matter where you are, only those who have the strength have the power."

"Your current activities, I had also came to know about them through Chi Qing. Actually... you were a bit reckless." Granny Yin Hua sighed and said. "You best not think that you would not die because you possessed a Divine Armor. The Black Frozen Snow was merely a low level Divine Armor, with your strength wearing it, the amount of people in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm that could break through this Divine Armor are no less than ten."

Qin Yu was greatly shocked to hear these words.

Leaving aside the fact that this granny Yin Hua knew that he possessed the Divine Armor, 'Black Frozen Snow,' but what granny Yin Hua said... the amount of people that can break through this Divine Armor in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, was actually no less than ten!

"Mn, what's the most important is the strength of one's body. Continue to train properly. In this Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, talented people are hard to come by." Granny Yin Hua sighed and said.

"Yes, junior would certainly firmly bear that in mind." Qin Yu was indeed somewhat moved.

He also wanted to cultivated all the way to the late stage Black Hole Realm in a single stretch so that he can open the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas. However, in the deepest part of his heart, he also wanted to meet his brothers extremely bad. Qin Yu merely thought that with the Jiang Lan's Realm, it would be no problem for him to pass through the Immortal Realm. He had set off with this sort of mentality.

Chapter 61 – The Old Friends

Immortal Realm, Plate Roe Starfield, Jade Wave Star. On the Crescent Moon Bay. Qin Yu was currently chatting with granny Yin Hua.

Granny Yin Hua carefully took a couple glances at Qin Yu before she started to laugh and said. "Actually, from the way it seems now, having you suffer hardships a couple more time is also a good thing. To grow from the frustrations of battle, it is faster than going through seclusion training."

"Big sister Yin Hua's words are very reasonable. Back when I was younger, I cultivated all the way to level eight Immortal Emperor in a single stretch through almost practically all fighting against other people. That speed... was much faster than the cultivation speed of these recent years." Sighed the Cyan Emperor.

Like a clever child, Qin Yu nodded in approval.

"Chi Ching, you're also a person with very good fortune. If it were other people, it was impossible for them to be like the way you are." Said granny Yin Hua while smiling.

Cyan Emperor displayed a contented smile. "That's because I know when to be content."

Qin Yu continued to listen quietly while standing on the side. He was also to tell that the conversation between granny Yin Hua and the Cyan Emperor involved the reason why the Cyan Emperor has been level eight Immortal Emperor for all this time. However, Qin Yu was still unable to tell what exactly was the cause.

But, he was certain about one thing, for the Cyan Emperor to be level eight Immortal for all this time, it wasn't because he was unlucky but rather because he was very fortunate.

"Qin Yu, hows things going along between that girl Yan'er and that Jun Luoyu?" Granny Yin Hua turned around and asked Qin Yu. She had a loving expression in her eyes, it was the love toward Jiang Yan.

Qin Yu smiled and said. "Brother Luoyu had already returned to his hometown and started bitter seclusion training. As for Yan'er, she had followed him. Their relationship... I am unable to clearly describe it."

Jiang Yan, Jun Luoyu?

Qin Yu was really at a loss as to how to describe them. That Jun Luoyu only remember his wife. Toward Jiang Yan, he was at the very most only concerned about her, it was not at all romantic love. As for Jiang Yan... she didn't care about that and continued to stay by Jun Luoyu's side.

"Sigh, an ill-fated relationship." Granny Yin Hua smiled bitterly. "Back then, that girl wanted to go to the Immortal Realm to check things out and begged me numerous times; finally, I agreed. Who would've imagined that once she steps into the mundane world, she became tangled up into a knot with this Jun Luoyu."

Granny Yin Hua also appeared to be helpless.

The purple gowned dame beside granny Yin Hua comforted. "Big sister, don't mind too much about it. Just take it as Yan'er's training in the life of the mundane world."

"Mn, I can only think like this." Granny Yin Hua nodded.

Immediately afterward, granny Yin Hua smiled and took a glance at Qin Yu. "Coming to Chi Qing's Crescent Moon Bay this time, what brought me the most happiness is seeing little brother Qin Yu. Certainly possessing potential and promising. Merely, the current strength was too weak."

"Granny, junior would certainly continue to train hard." Qin Yu felt a bit weird.

This granny Yin Hua knew that he was acquainted with Jiang Lan, thus it was logical that she might be curious about him. However, it shouldn't be so exaggerated to the level of — Coming to the Crescent Moon Bay, what brought her the most happiness was seeing him. Wasn't that attaching a bit too much importance toward him?

Qin Yu had never met granny Yin Hua before.

"Qin Yu, stay for a couple more days in the Crescent Moon Bay. In these couple days, Chi Qing's old friends would be coming, you should also meet them in passing." Said granny Yin Hua to Qin Yu while smiling. She had a very kind expression in her eyes.

"Big sister Yin Hua?" Cyan Emperor looked toward granny Yin Hua with an astonished expression.

While others don't know the who Cyan Emperor's old friends are, he himself naturally knew who they are. As he knew who they are, he naturally felt strange as to why granny Yin Hua would say such words. Afterall, his friends were not people that ordinary people can just meet.

Granny Yin Hua took a glance at Cyan Emperor and then smiled lightly. "Qin Yu, he is qualified to meet them."

Seeing granny Yin Hua speaking this way, Cyan Emperor decided to no longer refute. He turned around, looked at Qin Yu and said. "Little brother Qin Yu, stay here for a couple more days."

Qin Yu was able to deduce some things from the conversation between granny Yin Hua and the Cyan Emperor. Clearly from Cyan Emperor's opinion, he should not have the qualifications to meet those people. Qin Yu smiled and said. "The meeting between seniors, this junior should not disturb it."

"No need, when the time comes you just have to come." Directly said granny Yin Hua. Immediately after, she smiled toward Qin Yu. "If you were to not come, granny would be angry."

"Qin Yu, big sister Yin Hua wanted you to come, so just come." At this moment, the Cyan Emperor also started urging Qin Yu.

Qin Yu felt some warmth in his heart and immediately nodded. "For this junior to be able to meet those seniors, it is this junior's blessing. This junior would certainly show up."

Soon after, Qin Yu followed the servants into his residence. Cyan Emperor's wife had also left. As for the Cyan Emperor, he stayed in the flower pond and continued to chat with granny Yin Hua. The target of their talks were precisely Qin Yu.

"Big sister Yin Hua, you want Qin Yu to come, is that really fitting?" Asked the Cyan Emperor. "Even if this Qin Yu's cultivation speed was very fast, he might be able to become qualified to make friends with the people of my generation after a thousand or ten thousand years. However, the current him, his strength was truly insufficient."

Granny Yin Hua did not speak, instead she stood up and looked toward the sky. Her gaze appeared to have passed through the atmosphere of the Jade Wave Star, passed through the endless hollow... "Chi Qing, there's a lot of things that you still didn't know about." After a long time, granny Yin Hua's voice resounded in this large garden.

The Cyan emperor was shocked.

"Not mentioning the things of the future, even the current Qin Yu was qualified to meet those old friends of yours. You will naturally understand this in the future." After saying those words, granny Yin Hua started to walk toward her own residence.

The Cyan Emperor watched granny Yin Hua departing, he then turned around and looked toward the direction of Qin Yu's residence. His brows started to slightly crease.

...

In this Crescent Moon Bay, from the Cyan Emperor to the granny Yin Hua and all the way to a random maid, they were all very friendly and amiable. Qin Yu felt very comfortable in the past few days that he stayed in the Crescent Moon Bay. He had also met the Cyan Emperor and granny Yin Hua a couple times in these past few days.

"Haha... Chi Ching, your old friend had arrived yet you're still not out?" A loud and open laugh sounded through the skies of the Crescent Moon Bay.

"Old friend?" Qin Yu who was chatting with Song Shi was unable to refrain himself from stopping. He raised his head and looked toward the direction in which the voice resounded from.

He saw a golden silhouette slowly descending from the sky. Although the golden silhouette was not far from Qin Yu and the speed of the descend was also not fast, but Qin Yu was still unable to see clearly the true appearance of that golden silhouette.

"Ah, Qin Yu, I have to go and work now, let's talk about in the future." Said Song Shi to Qin Yu hurriedly.

Qin Yu knew that Song Shi was the one in charge of receiving the Cyan Emperor's old friends. Thus, Qin Yu also did not obstruct him. He smiled and said. "Song Shi, go ahead."

Right at the moment when Qin Yu just said those words.

"Young master Qin Yu, His Majesty wanted young master to go to the south side of the cold pond." A maid appeared in front of the door to Qin Yu's residence.

"I'll go right away." Qin Yu immediately got up.

He knew that granny Yin Hua had said to let him see those old friends of the Cyan Emperor. And now... it must be the time to see that golden silhouette person.

Having stayed in the Crescent Moon Bay for a couple of days, Qin Yu had became familiar with the roads. Following the corridor, he turned nine times and then eighteen more times. Soon, he had arrived on the cold pond where the Cyan Emperor had been fishing at last time. The cold pond was extremely cold. Its surrounding was covered in a layer of drifting mist.

The ground on the south side of the cold pond was covered with a spongy black grass. At the same time, there was two stone tables and over a dozen rock stools arranged all over the place. On the stone tables was some peculiar culinary delicacies.

At this moment, on the south side of the was three people: granny Yin Hua, Cyan Emperor and that golden silhouette. Even the Cyan Emperor's wife was not present.

The maid had also stopped far away from the cold pond.

"It's Qin Yu, right? Come, come quickly." Granny Yin Hua turned around and looked towards him. She called out to Qin Yu while laughing. Immediately, Cyan Emperor and that golden silhouette had also turned around to look toward Qin Yu's direction.

Only at this moment did Qin Yu see clearly that the golden silhouette person was an white haired elderly man wearing a golden gown.

Of course, Qin Yu knew that one cannot determine the age of a cultivator from their outer appearance. Some Immortal Emperors looked like youngster but it was completely possible for them to be actually tens of millions of years old. To cultivators, age does not have much significance.

Strength, that was what foundation of determining who's senior and who's junior.

"Come, Qin Yu, let me introduce him to you." Granny Yin Hua was full of laughter as she pulled Qin Yu's hand. Qin Yu had also closely looked toward the golden clothed white haired elderly man.

Majesty.

There was no need for the golden clothed white haired old man to pretend; even a single smile of his contained a kind of top quality majesty. That was the kind of noble majesty that was emitted from the bones, from the soul.

"Qin Yu, this is the current clan chief of the Dragon Clan." Said granny Yin Hua while smiling.

Qin Yu's heart jumped.

It's actually the Dragon Clan's Dragon Emperor, his big brother Ao Wuming's father!

Dragon Emperor Ao Fang. He possessed the utmost fame for fighting prowess in the Dragon Clan/ He had two sons, one was a Five Clawed Golden Dragon whereas the other was a Variation Super Divine Beast, the Blood Dragon that had never once appeared before in the Dragon Clan.

"Junior Qin Yu paying his respect to senior Ao." Said Qin Yu respectfully immediately.

The Dragon Emperor. The Dragon Clan's strength was comparable to the whole Immortal Realm; one was able to imagine the status of the Dragon Emperor. He was someone that even Emperor Yu, Cyan Emperor, Mystic Emperor and others were unable to compare with.

The Dragon Emperor looked toward Qin Yu with a rather deep anticipation-like feeling for a long time. "You are Qin Yu? The brother of that unfilial son of mine?"

"Unfilial son?" Qin Yu was slightly shocked.

Ao Wuming was actually an unfilial son in the eyes of the Dragon Emperor?

"Ao Fang, it's been so many years now, you still mind about that thing? From where I stand, I think that Wuming is a pretty good child. Wasn't it only that he took a white fox as his wife? What's so wrong about that?" Said the Cyan Emperor discontentedly.

The Dragon Emperor's expression turned somewhat sour. "Chi Qing, you asked what's wrong with that? Do you know how revered and valuable the bloodline of the Five Clawed Golden Dragon was? The child of a Five Clawed Golden Dragon, even if it was not a Five Clawed Golden Dragon, it would also likely be a Golden Dragon. However, this unfilial son Wuming refused to marry a girl from the dragon clan and instead married a white fox. Isn't this wasting the bloodline of a Five Clawed Golden Dragon?"

Qin Yu suddenly realized what happened after hearing that.

The children of Five Star Golden Dragons are usually extraordinary.

Just by looking at the two sons of the Dragon Emperor and one would know. One was a Super Divine Beast while the other was a variation Super Divine Beast.

Of course, Dragon Emperor's children were a bit special. However, the children of ordinary Five Clawed Golden Dragon were usually Golden Dragons. But... Ao Wuming was married to a white fox; he married someone who's not from the Dragon Clan.

Usually, dragons who married those that aren't a pure dragon would give birth to children that are a pure dragon. While it is possible for the child to be a dragon, it was also possible for it to be a white fox!

"Old Dragon oh Old Dragon, you demand too much from your children. You even wanted to be in charge of who they marries?" An amiable and gentle voice sounded and then a red light appeared beside the people present.

This red light turned into a person, a beautiful woman.

This woman gave off an grandeur that is hard to describe. It caused others to give the mind to serve her the moment they saw her. When her gaze landed on you, it would cause you to feel warmth.

"Who is this person?" Qin Yu started to ponder.

Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness was very sensitive. However, these few people in front of him all gave Qin Yu a kind of fuzzy sensation. These four people that stood in front of him, Qin Yu was actually unable to see through any of them. This included the legendary level eight Immortal Emperor, the Cyan Emperor.

Qin Yu was also to sense the strength of Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya. However, he was unable to see through Cyan Emperor and them.

"You also arrived. I am unable to control that unfilial son of mine anymore. All these years yet he had never came back to see me once." The Dragon Emperor shook his head helplessly.

"Senior Ao, big brother Wuming and sister-in-law Lian Zhu are very loving of each other. Please don't force him too much." Persuaded Qin Yu.

"Senior Ao? You can also be considered as the brother of my son, it's fine for you to just call me uncle in the future." Said the Dragon Emperor to Qin Yu while smiling.

Qin Yu was startled. However, he still replied. "Qin Yu paying his respect to uncle." However, Qin Yu was also somewhat astonished. This Dragon Emperor's manner toward him seemed to be a bit too overly good.

The Dragon Emperor smiled as he nodded. "Mn, since you called me uncle, then when you see that unfilial son Wuxu, you can also address him as your big brother."

"Wuxu?" Qin Yu recalled a person, it was the Variation Super Divine Beast, Blood Dragon Ao Wuxu. Why did the Dragon Emperor suddenly mention Ao Wuxu? I have never met him before.

"Sly." Cyan Emperor laughed out loud.

"So very cunning!" The red clothed woman also had a smile on her face.

The Dragon Emperor, after being called such by the Cyan Emperor and the red clothed woman, had a slight reddened face. He immediately said. "Qin Yu, I suspect you still don't know who she is right? Let me introduce her to you, this is the super expert of the Bird Clan, Phoenix Emperor Ni!"

Emperor Ni, the Super Divine Beast, a phoenix of the Bird Clan. A level nine Demon Emperor Super Divine Beast.

Her strength was definitely amongst the utmost peak of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

"Junior paying his respect toward senior Emperor Ni." Qin Yu said hurriedly.

He had never expected for this red clothed woman to be Emperor Ni. From Qin Yu's perspective, a level nine Demon Emperor level Super Divine Beast was definitely able to be considered as the top individual of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

Emperor Ni smiled and nodded at Qin Yu.

"Emperor Ni, I believe you should know who this is." The Dragon Emperor smiled as he pointed at granny Yin Hua.

"It's big sister Yin Hua." Emperor Ni smiled and said. "Last time, I merely saw big sister's appearance through her remarkable ability and have not yet met big sister in reality. This is the first time for us to meet."

"It is indeed the first time for us to meet. This opportunity was also given to us because Chi Qing managed to cultivate successfully." Granny Yin Hua smiled and said. "Otherwise, who knows how long we will wait till we meet?"

Qin Yu was startled. A level nine Demon Emperor level Super Divine Beast also revered granny Yin Hua as such?

He began to become confused, who exactly was the number one expert of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm?

The level nine Devil Emperor level Super Divine Beast, the mysterious granny Yin Hua, or the Dragon Emperor?

"Ah, I have still yet to congratulate brother Chi Qing yet. Brother Chi Qing had bittered trained for tens of millions of years and have finally attained success. In this Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, brother Chi Qing ought to be the number one individual right?" The Dragon Emperor gasped in admiration.

Hearing those words, Qin Yu was once again stunned.

Cyan Emperor who was a level eight Immortal Emperor was actually the number one individual in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm?

Confusion.

Qin Yu was completely confused about the strength of these four individuals.

(These four people, who exactly was the strongest?)

Chapter 62 – Agreement

"Old Dragon oh Old Dragon, you truly wished for the whole world to be in chaos. I, Chi Qing, am not gifted like your Dragon Clan nor do I possess the love from the world like Emperor Ni; even if I was to be somewhat lucky, but to be called the number one individual of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, I'm far from it." Scolded the Cyan Emperor while laughing.

The Phoenix Emperor Ni also laughed and scolded. "This old dragon, as the Emperor of the Dragon Clan, who knows how many treasures that he has but we don't know of. This Phoenix Clan of mine, at the time when we have the most members in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, we have merely two. And now, there's only me that's left. After I passed the Divine Tribulation and ascended, there won't be any more Phoenix in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. As for the Dragon Clan... it's a densely packed herd."

Qin Yu found it funny as he listened.

However, he was also able to guess that how could the Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Clan not possess exceptional treasures?

Level nine Demon Emperor level Super Divine Beast, the Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Clan, the Cyan Emperor who had remained a level eight Immortal Emperor for countless years and the mysterious granny Yin Hua. One cannot look down on any one of them.

"In the previous years when we meet together, there was also that Gold Punishment Lord. However, now the Gold Punishment Lord was already gone." Emperor Ni suddenly sighed and said.

"That's right, Gold Punishment Lord. I still remember the scene of us four meeting together." Cyan Emperor also sighed.

Qin Yu grew surprised.

Gold Punishment Lord, who is that?

Dragon Emperor noticed Qin Yu's confusion, he smiled and said. "Oh Qin Yu, it would seem that you still didn't know about the Gold Punishment Lord. However, you should know about the Dark Star Realm, right?"

Qin Yu nodded.

Between the territories of the Immortal Realm and the Bird Clan, in a region to the northeast of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, there was the legendary Dark Star Realm that occupied ten percent of the area of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

"There are three great sovereigns in the Dark Star Realm. These three great sovereigns belonged to a type of continued tradition and were passed on from generation to generation. These three great sovereigns are respectfully the Gold Punishment Lord, Black Flame Lord and the White Mystic Lord." The Dragon Emperor carefully explained.

Stunning!

Qin Yu's heart started to tremble.

He finally knew who the Black Flame Lord and the White Mystic Lord are.

They're actually two of the three great sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm.

The Dragon Emperor continued. "The three great sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm were passed on from generation to generation. Of which the Gold Punishment Lord was the leader whereas the Black Flame Lord and the White Mystic Lord were the assistants. The three great sovereigns ruled over the entire Dark Star Realm together. The Gold Punishment Lord of the previous generation was a good friend of I, Emperor Ni and the Cyan Emperor. The four of us frequently get together."

Experts are lonely.

Upon reaching the level of the Dragon Emperor, they are usually only associated the other three. The four of them all knew of the exceptional aspect of the other three.

Cyan Emperor also nodded and said. "Amongst the four of us, the Gold Punishment Lord's strength was the strongest. He was also our big brother. However... Gold Punishment Lord had already passed the Divine Tribulation and ascended into the Divine Realm."

Ascended into the Divine Realm?

Qin Yu was slightly shocked. Although he had always heard of passing through the Divine Tribulation and ascending into the Divine Realm; but all these years, it was the first time that he heard about someone who had actually ascended into the Divine Realm.

Gold Punishment Lord, the leader of the three great sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm. "Now that we mentioned the Divine Tribulation, it was also the three great sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm that's amazing. No matter which generation's sovereign they are, it seemed as if none of them had ever failed. However, the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm and even the Demon Realm, the chances of them failing was all very high." Cyan Emperor gasped in admiration.

"Senior Cyan Emperor, you said none of them had ever failed?" Qin Yu found it a bit hard to believe.

"That's right, the three great sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm, at least as far as I know, no matter which generation's sovereigns they are, they have never once failed the Divine Tribulation." Cyan Emperor nodded.

Qin Yu was unable to refrain himself from smacking his lips.

To be able to successfully pass a tribulation signifies the strength of the person involved. Every generation of the three great sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm had successfully passed the Divine Tribulation; the strength of these three great sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm was evident. Furthermore, the Gold Punishment Lord from the previous generation was known as the big brother of the Cyan Emperor and them. To be considered as the big brother by Cyan Emperor and them, his strength was obvious.

"Although the Dark Star Realm composed of only ten percent of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, but their true strength was reckoned to be powerful to a frightening level." Qin Yu was unable to help himself from gasping in admiration in his heart.

Granny Yin Hua, Cyan Emperor, Emperor Ni and the Dragon Emperor were chatting. Some of the secret stories of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realms were casually being said by them. As for the Dragon Emperor, he was unusually good toward Qin Yu and would frequently explain some things to Qin Yu.

As these four people conversed, Qin Yu also found it a bit hard to ask. Thus, he frequently came across things that confused him. Having obtained the Dragon Emperor's careful explanations, Qin Yu also started to have a favorable impression of the Dragon Emperor.

After hearing all that, Qin Yu came to understand completely.

This time around, the Dragon Emperor and Emperor Ni came to congratulate the Cyan Emperor. The main thing was that the bitter training that the Cyan Emperor had been undergoing for all these years had finally succeeded. As for what the training was for... Qin Yu was not certain of it.

"Chi Qing, when do you plan to take on the Divine Tribulation?" Suddenly, the Dragon Emperor asked.

"When?" The Cyan Emperor pondered for a moment. "I have yet to carefully think about it. However... it shouldn't be too long from now. To be honest, what I wished the most all these years was to train and cultivate successfully. As for undergoing the Divine Tribulation after actually obtaining success, I instead grew a bit hesitate and indeterminate." The Cyan Emperor had a self mocking smile.

Qin Yu was confused. One could prepare when to take on the Divine Tribulation?

According to what Qin Yu knew, to undergo a tribulation, usually when one's strength reached the level, one would automatically sense when the tribulation will come. When to take on the Divine Tribulation, it was something that the Heavens decides, how could one possibly decide when to take on the tribulation?

However, Qin Yu did not ask and instead only continued to listen quietly.

"Chi Qing, maybe you would take on the Divine Tribulation even earlier than me." Said Emperor Ni with a smile.

Emperor Ni was also a level nine Demon Emperor. It's just that she currently still haven't sense when she would be undergoing the Divine Tribulation.

Granny Yin Hua spoke. "The amount of time Chi Qing stayed in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was truly too long. There's not much sense for him to continue staying any longer. It's also good for him to undergo the Divine Tribulation earlier and ascend into the Divine Realm."

"Mn, that's right." Dragon Emperor said in approval.

...

In the middle of their conversations, Qin Yu decided to leave. It was mostly because toward the end of their conversations it had became trivial matters amongst friends. For an outsider and a junior like Qin Yu, it was not good for him to continue staying there and listen. Granny Yin Hua, Dragon Emperor and them also knew that Qin Yu felt awkward and decided to let Qin Yu leave earlier.

This time's banquet, Qin Yu did not eat anything. However, he managed to learn a lot of things.

After returning to his own residence, Qin Yu was still unable to keep his calm.

"Dragon Emperor, Emperor Ni and them, they ought to be the most upmost level group of people in the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm." Qin Yu's heart was trembling. The strength of those people were too powerful. Qin Yu was able to sense that...

If any of these four wanted to kill him, they would all be able to do it easily.

As for the Divine Armor?

Granny Yin Hua had once said that there are no less than ten people in the Immoral, Devil and Demon Realm that could break through his Divine Armor. From what Qin Yu saw, these four people was absolutely able to break through his Divine Armor and cause the Black Hole within his body to collapse!

These are the true experts "The gap between me and them was so very big" Qin Yu took a deep breath.

These four people, even if the opponent was to be the level nine Immortal Emperor, Hidden Emperor, Lin Yin; Qin Yu still felt that... Lin Yin was inferior to these four.

As the core planet of the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy, the Jade Wave Star's transportation was very developed. There was also a lot of Interstellar Conveying Arrays. Amongst them, there were even three Interstellar Conveying Arrays that transports one to other galaxies from the Jade Wave Star.

These three Interstellar Conveying Arrays respectfully lead to the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy's north side, west side and east side. Altogether, it's leads to three major galaxies.

The galaxy to the west of the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy was the Blood River Galaxy. The Blood River Galaxy took the form of a strip. The outside of the galaxy was surrounded by a thin layer of red. It appeared like a crimson colored river.

The Interstellar Conveying Array that lead to the Blood River Galaxy is connected to the Reef Yellow Star.

On the Reef Yellow Star of the Blood River Galaxy.

The surging river was rushing toward the north. There are three people high up in the skies above the surging river. The leader of the three was Emperor Yu who was donned in a purple gown. Behind him stood two white clothed youths.

An enormous Immortal Awareness was sent over from the direction of the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy. It passed through the cosmic space of the two major galaxies and directly covered the entire Reef Yellow Star.

"Brother Chi Qing's Immortal Awareness is so very powerful." Emperor Yu's Immortal Awareness was also extended. It came into contact with the opposing Immortal Awareness.

"Old boy Feng Yu, what business do you have for you to send a transmission to me?" Asked the Cyan Emperor. Before this, Emperor Yu had just send a transmission to him via his Transmission Spiritual Pearl. Because the two were not located far from each other, they decided to communicate with their Immortal Awareness.

Not located far from each other; that was only in regards to the Cyan Emperor and Emperor Yu only. The distance of two whole galaxies, that's still a very frightening distance.

"Yu Fan had already told me everything, I am merely very surprised... that brother Chi Qing actually knew that person was Qin Yu." Emperor Yu had a smile on his face as he transmitted those words via Immortal Awareness.

"If old boy Feng Yu knows, it's not surprising at all for me to know." Said the Cyan Emperor with a gentle laughter.

Emperor Yu was cursing in his heart.

The old guy Cyan Emperor truly conceals too much. All these years, Emperor Yu and the Mystic Emperor had still never managed to see through exactly how much strength the Cyan Emperor were hiding. However, just the portion that was discovered by Emperor Yu and the Mystic Emperor was already terrifying enough."

"Brother Chi Qing, I seek for brother Chi Qing this time around because of the matter with Qin Yu." Emperor Yu directly voiced his purpose in coming.

"You said Qin Yu? Could it be that you want that Bewitching God Painting?" Cyan Emperor asked instead.

Emperor Yu was startled. He only now discovered that the Cyan Emperor actually knew so much. At this moment... Emperor Yu grew alert. He did not believe that the Cyan Emperor would not care about the Bewitching God Painting.

"So brother Chi Qing actually already knew everything. That's right, I want that Bewitching God Painting. You also know that it is very hard to take on the Divine Tribulation. WIth a misstep, millions of years of bitter cultivation and training would become nothing. No matter what, I want to increase my confidence and increase the success rate of taking on the Divine Tribulation." Said Emperor Yu very sincerely.

The Cyan Emperor grew silent for a long while.

"I understand what you were thinking." Said the Cyan Emperor after some consideration. "It's just that I have a favorable impression toward this little brother Qin Yu. If he were to be killed by you just like that, then..."

"Brother Chi Qing." Emperor Yu interrupted Cyan Emperor.

"I believe brother Chi Qing wasn't acquainted with Qin Yu in the past, even if you were to have a favorable impression of him after meeting him now, that does not account for much. Wasn't acquainted with him before and only knew him for a couple days, it shouldn't be enough for you to have a deep affection toward him. Could it be... that brother Chi Qing also have his eyes on the Bewitching God Painting?" Emperor Yu instead asked.

"Bewitching God Painting? Humph, Feng Yu, when Ni Yang had that Bewitching God Painting, when you, Mystic Emperor and him all gone to the Bewitching God Temple together, did I join you? That time when you all invited the Blood Devil Emperor and them to go together with you, did I join you? It seemed to me that I have never once bothered to go. You said that I had my eyes on the Bewitching God Painting? Isn't that a bit too ridiculous?" The Cyan Emperor sounded a bit angry.

Of course Emperor Yu knew about these things.

The top experts of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm had previously entered the Bewitching God Temple several times. However, this Cyan Emperor did not go even once. At the very least, Emperor Yu and them had never heard of the Cyam Emperor entering the Bewitching God Temple.

Unless the Cyan Emperor secretly entered by himself.

Emperor Yu didn't believe that Cyan Emperor would be foolish enough to refuse to enter with others but instead go in by himself into such a dangerous place.

"Brother Chi Qing, my words were mistaken. However, why must you protect that Qin Yu like so?" Emperor Yu grew a bit anxious. If Cyan Emperor were determined to protect Qin Yu, then it would truly be difficult for him to kill Qin Yu.

Emperor Yu clenched his teeth, he then said via sound transfer. "Brother Chi Qing, I remember that you still owe me a favor. You had said back then that if there is a request for you, then you would help me with your all. Now, I..."

"If you want me to kill Qin Yu, that's absolutely cannot be done." Said the Cyan Emperor decisively. "I owe you a favor, if you want me to help you in other things, then I can do it. However, killing him was absolutely out of the question."

"I didn't want you to kill you, I only need you... to not obstruct me from killing him." Emperor Yu continued. "This way... I would absolutely not do anything in the territory of the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy. However, once he exit the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy, you are to immediately tell me. As long as you let me know, then you would have returned my favor. What do you think?"

Experts at the level of the Cyan Emperor rarely owes other favors.

At that time, the Cyan Emperor needed a treasure. When Emperor Yu found out about that he instead was overjoyed. He used all means possible to obtain that treasure and presented it to the Cyan Emperor so that the Cyan Emperor would owe him a favor. Now that he had used this favor, Emperor Yu was also a bit unwilling to let it go.

Seeing that the Cyan Emperor was still silent, Emperor Yu continued. "I only wanted you to inform me. I don't need you to kill him and would even not attack him in your territory."

"Then... alright."

The Cyan Emperor finally agreed. "When Qin Yu go through the Interstellar Conveying Array, I would let you know about it. However, you must remember that no matter what, when you are within my territory, you are not allowed to kill him. As to how you will attack him and whether or not it's successful, those are none of my concern."

"Good, it's a deal." Emperor Yu was overjoyed.

"That's settled then." The Cyan Emperor retrieved his omnipresent Immortal Awareness.

Emperor Yu had a slight smile on his face. One of the two white clothed youths behind him spoke and asked. "Your Majesty, is it a success?"

"Cyan Emperor, since he agreed he would absolutely accomplish it." Emperor Yu was very confident. Suddenly, he asked. "That's right, how many of the Immortal Emperors underneath me managed to arrive on the three assemble points?"

The white clothed youth on the left side said respectfully. "There are currently sixteen Immortal Emperors that have arrived on the three assemble planets. The other Immortal Emperors were still rushing over. I estimate that in another day, there would be certainly forty eight Immortal Emperors."

"Very good." Emperor Yu's current mood was very good.

The famous Immortal Emperors underneath Emperor Yu included the Eighteen Emperors and Thirty Six Lords. At the same time, he also has many Immortal Emperors underneath him without much reputation. However, their strength was also very strong.

"Qin Yu, I have arranged an inescapable net; let's see how you will flee this time around." Emperor Yu was completely confident.

Chapter 63 – Sealing Element Refining Flame Array

Angelica Dahurica Galaxy, Jade Wave Star. On a courtyard on the Crescent Moon Bay. At this moment, Cyan Emperor was anxiously questioning granny Yin Hua.

"Big sister Yin Hua, why would you make me agree to it?" Cyan Emperor was a bit angry and worried. At the same time, he was also confused. "Big sister Yin Hua, now that Feng Yu laid down an inescapable net, it would be very hard for Qin Yu to safely escape. Not only did you refuse to let me prevent him, you instead make me agree to let him know when Qin Yu leaves. This..."

At the moment when Emperor Yu and Cyan Emperor were conversing, all the information from their conversation was directly transmitted into granny Yin Hua's mind by the Cyan Emperor.

Emperor Yu requested that the Cyan Emperor not to obstruct him in killing Qin Yu and even tell him when Qin Yu leaves the Jade Wave Star. At that moment, the Cyan Emperor was prepared to decline that. However, granny Yin Hua who was next to him instead told him to agree to it.

Cyan Emperor trusted granny Yin Hua and thus he agreed.

"You need not be worried about this." Granny Yin Hua said while smiling. "If Qin Yu were not to receive some setbacks, then how could be become someone who is worthy of respect? Furthermore, if he were to be unable to break through even Emperor Yu's trap, then even if he were to die, there was no one that he can blame for that."

Granny Yin Hua's tone contained within it a disdain toward Emperor Yu's trap.

"That's right, young people should receive more setbacks so that that can temper themselves. That's also to their benefit." Hearing granny Yin Hua's reasoning, Cyan Emperor also decided to speak no more.

The main reason why the Cyan Emperor was so nice to Qin Yu was also because of granny Yin Hua. Had it not been for the fact that granny Yin Hua was fond of Qin Yu, then how would the Cyan Emperor be so nice to a total stranger?

When even granny Yin Hua was speaking like this, Cyan Emperor naturally didn't say anymore. "Big sister Yin Hua, I'll stop bothering you and will be taking my leave first." Said the Cyan Emperor while smiling. Granny Yin Hua only slightly nodded with her back toward the Cyan Emperor. Then Cyan Emperor quietly left the courtyard.

In the courtyard, granny Yin Hua was looking at the endless empty sky.

"This Qin Yu's cultivation speed. It gives the impression that it's pretty good, but... why am I unable to tell what he have that's exceptional and amazing?" Granny Yin Hua had a slight puzzled expression. "Hopefully he doesn't disappoint me."

Qin Yu stayed in the Crescent Moon Bay for several more days. In these couple days, Qin Yu had met with the Dragon Emperor, Emperor Ni, Cyan Emperor and granny Yin Hua several times. Amongst which he met with the Dragon Emperor the most often. That was mainly because the Dragon Emperor took the initiative to come and chat with him.

At this moment, the Cyan Emperor, Dragon Emperor, Emperor Ni, granny Yin Hua, Song Shi and others were seeing Qin Yu off. Today, Qin Yu had finally decided to leave.

"Worthy nephew Qin Yu, stay for a couple more days, Emperor Ni and I was still going to stay here for quite a while. You also don't need to be anxious to leave too fast." Said the Dragon Emperor to Qin Yu with a slight unhappiness.

"Uncle, I really have an important matter." Said Qin Yu helplessly.

The expression and tone that the two had when they were talking to each other had caused others to be able to clearly sense the intimateness of the two. In these past several days, the Dragon Emperor had always been calling Qin Yu 'worthy nephew Qin Yu.'

"Old Dragon ah, call it a day. A child must always leave the house and wander the world." Said Emperor Ni while smiling.

The couple people on the scene all knew why Dragon Emperor was so excessively good toward Qin Yu. When thinking about the reason, these couple people all snickered in their heart.

"Qin Yu, take well and go out to wander the world. Granny believes that the next time she sees you, your strength would have increased by leaps and bounds." Said Granny Yin Hua to Qin Yu.

Qin Yu immediately replied respectfully. "Granny, please rest assured. This Qin Yu would definitely not slack off."

Qin Yu was also to sense the demand that granny Yin Hua had for his strength.

"Senior Cyan Emperor, senior Emperor Ni, uncle, granny, Song Shi. I will be leaving now, goodbye." Said Qin Yu as he cupped his hand respectfully.

Afterwards, Qin Yu's body turned into a ray of light and disappeared into the horizon.

Blood River Galaxy, Reef Yellow Star.

Emperor Yu who was donned in a purple gown was standing atop the peak of an isolated mountain. He was looking toward the distant east, the direction of the Angelica Dahurica Galaxy.

"Mu Yan, are all the preparations ready?" Asked Emperor Yu tranquilly.

A yellow gowned old man standing behind him said respectfully. "Your Majesty, there are three Interstellar Transmission Arrays on the Jade Wave Star that leads to other galaxies. Of these planets the three Interstellar Transmission Arrays leads to, the other two both have sixteen Immortal Emperors assembled. As for this third planet, Reef Yellow Rock, there are more than twenty Immortal Emperors assembled here. We certainly have enough manpower to arrange a large formation."

"Very good." Emperor Yu's eyes shined.

"Transmit the orders, tell the forty eight Immortal Emperors that are setting up formations on the three major planets to be ready to immediately start the Sealing Element Refining Flame Array the moment they receive my order. This time, we must capture Qin Yu no matter what." Said Emperor Yu decisively.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The yellow gowned old man also had a slight excited expression on his face.

At the same time, a Transmission Spiritual Pearl appeared on the yellow gowned old man's hand. He started to send Transmission to the Immortal Emperors on the three major planets.

Time passed by the seconds.

Emperor Yu stood motionless on the peak of the isolated mountain. There was no sense of urgency on his face. Today was the day that Qin Yu was leaving from the Jade Wave Star. This was the information that the Cyan Emperor personally transmitted to him and would definitely not have any problem. As for when Qin Yu would be going though, that's a bit hard to say.

At this moment, Emperor Yu was holding onto a Transmission Spiritual Pearl. He was waiting for the Cyan Emperor's transmission!

"Feng Yu, Qin Yu had stepped onto the Interstellar Conveying Array that leads to the Reef Yellow Star!" A transmission suddenly arrived on the Transmission Spiritual Pearl. With a sweep of his Immortal Awareness, Emperor Yu's eyes shined.

"My task is already accomplished. As for whether or not you can catch Qin Yu, that's your own task. Furthermore... do not tell Qin Yu that I have helped you out." The words of the Cyan Emperor contained within it dissatisfaction.

Emperor Yu's face was smiling to the brim. "Rest assured, I would certainly not tell him."

"Your Majesty, a man arrived from the Jade Wave Star's Interstellar Conveying Array. His appearance does not match the appearance that Your Majesty spoke of. He most certainly have changed his appearance. As for his strength... this subordinate was unable to tell." Another information message was transmitted over.

After Emperor Yu saw this message, he was absolutely certain.

"Everybody, I command you to start the Sealing Element Refining Flame Array of the Reef Yellow Star completely." Emperor Yu send an order to the sixteen Immortal Emperors who had been waiting for his order the whole time.

An Immortal Emperor who was stationed in the surrounding of the Reef Yellow Rock and awaiting the whole time received the command. He had a long sigh of relief. "Finally started."

Not only him, the other fifteen Immortal Emperors who were also waiting the whole time also relaxed. At the same time, the sixteen people started the Immortal Spiritual Energy within their body. Numerous hand seals were executed unceasing.

In a snap of the fingers.

One by one, light pillars soared into the sky. At the same time, numerous light pillars were shot into the Reef Yellow Star from the Cosmic Space. In a split second, the whole Reef Yellow Star startled to tremble as if it had an earthquake.

By the Interstellar Conveying Array of the Reef Yellow Star.

Qin Yu had just walked out of the Interstellar Conveying Array and immediately felt that the land was trembling. There were also frightening light pillars falling from the surface of the ground was shattered. The energies filled the air. All the cultivators in the surroundings had alarmed expressions.

"What happened here?" Qin Yu was completely unknown as to what had happened.

The cultivators in the surrounding were also confused and alarmed upon seeing such powers being displayed. "Ah, could it be that the Immortal Emperors were battling? They actually caused the entire Reef Yellow Star to tremble. Everyone, run away. This Reef Yellow Star might explode." Some Immortal practitioner started to shout.

"I'll pay ten top quality elemental spirit stones, quickly, send me off." Someone took out some top quality elemental spirit stones and wanted to take the Interstellar Conveying Array.

At this moment, the entire Reef Yellow Star was filled with powerful energies. If one were to use Greater Teleportation, then they'll only be courting death. They could only leave via using the Interstellar Conveying Array. A lot of people started to assemble by the Interstellar Conveying Arrays trying to leave.

"Scram. Get to the side, let me go first. Otherwise I'll kill you." Shouted a black clothed one-eyed man angrily.

Chaos ensued.

There was only that many Interstellar Conveying Arrays; a large amount of Immortals came rushing over trying to fight over those Interstellar Conveying Arrays. Forcing their way through with their power or bribing their way through with their money... a chaotic scene.

"What exactly happened?" Everything came too sudden. Qin Yu was still confused as to what had happened.

Suddenly —

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" Continuous explosions were heard. Some of the tatters from the explosions firmly landed on Qin Yu's body and were jolted into dust by Qin Yu's external protective aura.

Qin Yu turned his head around to look.

It turned out that all the Interstellar Conveying Arrays of the Reef Yellow Star were completely destroyed from the explosions earlier.

"What are you doing?" Qin Yu coldly looked at the white clothed man in front of him. "Why did you destroy all the Interstellar Conveying Arrays?"

It was precisely this white clothed man that destroyed all the Interstellar Conveying Arrays in a flash. This caused Qin Yu to be very angry. However, Qin Yu had also discovered this man's strength — level four Immortal Emperor. The sole Immortal Emperor in the surrounding.

Seeing the destroyed Interstellar Conveying Arrays, all the Immortals in the surroundings were stunned.

"Why did you destroy the Interstellar Conveying Arrays? Can't you see that the entire planet is vibrating?" A youngster walked out and shouted angrily. "There might even be a great disaster that could happen in the Reef Yellow Star. A while back there were even two great Immortal Emperors fighting each other on the Blue Snow Star that have destroyed half of the planet. If such a thing were to happen again today, then because of you, we all might lose our lives."

"You, can shut your mouth." Said the white clothed man indifferently. With a sweep of his Sword Ray.

That youngster that was reprimanding him were impaled on the spot. His soul was scattered.

Absolute silence.

None of the numerous Immortals that were present dared to speak. Firstly because they were able to tell how strong this white clothed man was. And secondly because that youth from earlier was a extremely strong Golden Immortal, yet he was killed with a single sword strike.

Let alone... no disaster had occurred on the Reef Yellow Star yet. All of what had happened was merely speculation.

"You should be an Immortal Emperor right? A magnificent Immortal Emperor yet dared to destroy Interstellar Conveying Arrays. Say, why did you destroy the Interstellar Conveying Arrays?" Said Qin Yu to the white clothed man indifferently.

At the same time... Qin Yu spread his Immortal Awareness through the entire planet.

Immortal Emperors!

One, two, three...

"Twenty two Immortal Emperors!" Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness had already discovered all the Immortal Emperors on the planet. That included the Immortal Emperor with the strongest strength — Emperor Yu. Qin Yu immediately felt that the situation's bad.

"Could it be that after I entered the Jade Wave Star, Emperor Yu had people waiting here ever since? They discovered my identity the moment they saw me? But how did he recognize me?" Qin Yu was confused. He was able to vanish his aura; they should not be able to sense him.

Could it be that they decided that whoever that they cannot tell the strength of must certainly be me?

Qin Yu believed that Emperor Yu cannot be this reckless.

Unfortunately, he was unable to imagine that it was the Cyan Emperor who sold him out.

"Haha, Qin Yu, in order to catch you, His Majesty have assembled all his top experts in the three major planets to wait for you. Humph... you can forget about running away this time around." Said the white clothed man while laughing loudly. Afterward, he flew toward the sky.

Almost at the same time, Qin Yu also flew to the sky.

"The Interstellar Conveying Arrays were destroyed; everyone, fly away from the Reef Yellow Star first. Once we arrive on the stable Cosmic Space, then we can use Greater Teleportation." An Immortal said that as he flew toward the sky. At the same time, a large group of Immortals also followed him and started flying toward the sky.

One in front and one behind, the white clothed man and Qin Yu flew toward the sky.

With the speed of Immortals, they break through the atmosphere of the Reef Yellow Star in a blink of an eye. At this moment, Qin Yu was however standing in the middle of the atmosphere. The surrounding mist was drifting pass him. Qin Yu had a real deep frown.

"The whole planet was trapped, seems like one cannot teleport away from here." Qin Yu was very calm.

The Immortal Emperor from earlier had directly flew into the Cosmic Space. However, Qin Yu was unable to succeed in doing that. He was instead obstructed by an omnipresent net of light as he was flying.

That net of light appeared to be a circular shape. It covered the entire Reef Yellow Star.

At this moment, the entire Reef Yellow Star was like an egg yolk. It was completely covered by an eggshell known as the net of light.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"...

Ramming sound sounded in succession. All of the Immortals that flew after them were all knocked against the net of light in succession. Initially, the net of light was completely invisible. However, after it was knocked into by the Immortals, it gave off rays of light before once again turning invisible.

"Huff!"

With a figure like a ray of light, in a single flash, he arrived back on the ground from the atmosphere.

"Emperor Yu, what a huge scaled trap that you used in order to catch me." Said Qin Yu after a cold humph.

A purple gowned man flew down from the skies at a rapid speed. He landed on the ground and smiled at Qin Yu. "Qin Yu, you should also know that the you today is like a turtle in a jar. It was impossible for you to escape from here."

"Having covered the entire planet, that enormous energy had caused it to be impossible to use teleportation or Greater Teleportation at any place in the Reef Yellow then send people to destroy the Interstellar Conveying Arrays. What a beautiful plan. It is indeed impossible for me to escape." Qin Yu sneered.

"Haha..." Emperor Yu's face was filled with smiles. "To be honest, up until now, I still do not know whether you're Qin Yu or Lan Feng. I am a little bit confused. However, I know... that you possessed Divine Armor, Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, and the Bewitching God Painting." At this moment, Emperor Yu believed that victory was within his grasp.

"If you are to be obedient and hand over the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas and the Bewitching God Painting, I would leave you with all the rest of the Divine Artifacts and even the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. I would even spare your life. What do you think?" Said Emperor Yu very magnanimously.

Although the Divine Armor and the Divine Sword Sky Piercer were very good, Emperor Yu possessed his own Divine Weapon and Divine Armor. From his point of view, the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas and the Bewitching God Painting were the most important things.

Qin Yu was slightly amazed. He immediately then smiled and said. "Your condition was certainly pretty good. However, the Ten Thousand Beasts Scroll and the Bewitching God Painting are mine. Why must I give them to you?"

Chapter 64 Emperor Yu's Rage

"Are you cracking jokes?" Emperor Yu still had a smile on his face. It's just that there was a slight anger in his eyes.

Qin Yu replied with a matter of course appearance. "Cracking jokes? What jokes? The Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas and Bewitching God Painting are mine and mine only. No matter who it is, they can forget about trying to snatch them away from me."

Emperor Yu's expression immediately dropped cold. His smile was completely gone. He stared at Qin Yu with his ice-cold gaze. "Qin Yu, I offered you a path for survival yet you refused to take it; are you wholeheartedly seeking for your own demise?"

"Who said that I'm seeking my demise?" Qin Yu asked instead.

Emperor Yu's eyes grew narrow. He stared at Qin Yu deeply and didn't say a word. However, his Immortal Awareness had covered the entire Reef Yellow Star. All the Immortals within the Reef Yellow Star were in a state of dismay.

"Zhi Bai, Mu Yan, come over quickly." Emperor Yu's voice sounded in Immortal Emperor Zhi Bai and Immortal Emperor Mu Yan's minds.

Green Blooded Sword Immortal Zhi Bai. Yellow Gowned Immortal Emperor Mu Yan. They are the two great level seven Immortal Emperors under Emperor Yu. Of course, if one were to compare their attack power, then Green Blooded Sword Immortal would be slightly better. However, the Yellow Gowned Immortal Emperor Mu Yan was the one in charge of all the troops underneath Emperor Yu.

Emperor Yu had always thought that Qin Yu possessed an amazing technique to vanish his aura. He had only thought that QIn Yu was able to hide himself but never was he aware that... Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness was able to detect his own Immortal Awareness.

"You're going to attack now?" Qin Yu's entire body's energy have completely vanished into his Black Hole. His soul's power was also completely vanished into his Meteoric Tear.

Emperor Yu did not attack. That's because he had heard of how astonishing Qin Yu's speed was. He figured that if he wanted to catch Qin Yu, it'll be very difficult a task to do by himself. Thus, he was prepared to have the Green Blooded Sword Immortal and the Yellow Gowned Immortal Emperor to surround Qin Yu with him from three sides!

However...

Would Qin Yu give him the chance to do that?

"Haha... Emperor Yu, you are determined to steal my treasure; if you have the ability, then come!" Qin Yu shouted loudly . His voice echoed in the heaven and earth. However, he had instead completely disappeared into the east.

Emperor Yu's expression changed. He suddenly spread out his hands. With Emperor Yu as the center, the area within a circumference of ten thousand miles had turned into his 'domain.' Within this domain, Emperor Yu was even able to sense a speck of sand clearly. Unfortunately... with Qin Yu's speed, he had already left the range of the domain.

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"

Zhi Bai and Mu Yan appeared beside Emperor Yu.

"Your Majesty?" Mu Yan spoke. He had a slightly confused expression.

At this moment, Zhi Bai and Mu Yan's Immortal Awareness had completely filled the air. However, even though their Immortal Awareness had covered the entire Reef Yellow Star, they were still unable to find Qin Yu's aura.

Likewise, Emperor Yu's Immortal Awareness have also covered all the places of the Reef Yellow Star.

With a cold and detached expression, Zhi Bai spoke. "That Qin Yu has a secret technique to vanish his aura. Back when he was on the Blue Flame Star, he suddenly appeared when I did not even sense his existence. And now... I reckon that he had once again used that aura concealing secret technique."

Emperor Yu nodded.

Numerous times Qin Yu attacked, however, every time before he attacked, his opponent was unable to determine his strength. They were only able to sense it through his dissipated energy after the attacks. That was something that Emperor Yu knew about.

"Everyone, you need not be worried. Now that the entire Reef Yellow Star was sealed off by us, it was impossible for him to escape out of it. There is more than enough time for us to catch him. Furthermore... I do not believe that he has unmasked his true nature. If there truly is no other way, then I would..." Emperor Yu's eyes flashed a trace of ruthlessness.

"Your Majesty, you cannot." Said Mu Yan hurriedly.

Mu Yan knew what Emperor Yu's final method was. Upon thinking of that method, Mu Yan immediately thought of the terrible consequences.

Green Blooded Sword Immortal Zhi Bai still had a cold and detached appearance.

Emperor Yu's Immortal Awareness filled all the areas of the Reef Yellow Star. Breeze, speck, river, air, all the aura within them; the air oscillation caused by the battles of Immortals on the Reef Yellow Star... any kind of energy fluctuate was completely detected by Emperor Yu.

"Humph, still trying to run?"

Emperor Yu suddenly shot toward the northeast. Without the slightest hesitation, Zhi Bai and Mu Yan also followed.

Emperor Yu, Zhi Bai and Mu Yan rapidly flew. In a blink of an eye, they saw Qin Yu who was resting on a stone within a valley. At the same time, Qin Yu also discovered the three. His eyes was filled with shock.

"You actually managed to find me?" Qin Yu's eyes had a slight excitement. "Emperor Yu is worthy to be called Emperor Yu."

Emperor Yu humped coldly. "Did you think that after you vanish all your aura, I would be unable to find you?"

"How did you find me?" Qin Yu asked.

Zhi Bai and Mu Yan who stood behind Emperor Yu were also confused. They were confused about how Emperor Yu determined Qin Yu was here when none of them were able to sense Qin Yu's aura.

"Why must I tell you? If I were to tell you, then won't that be telling you how to flee from me?" Emperor Yu sneered. He then coldly ordered. "Zhi Bai, Mu Yan, kill him directly!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Mu Yan and Zhi Bai nodded and rushed toward Qin Yu simultaneously.

Neither Mu Yan, Zhi Bai nor Qin Yu noticed that Emperor Yu's complexion was somewhat pale. Earlier, the reason why Emperor Yu was able to discover Qin Yu was through a method that he comprehended after reaching his current level of realization of the cosmic space.

In a split second, his Immortal Awareness covered each and every aura, air, stone, Immortals, etc. of the Reef Yellow Star... He was able to clearly take note of the fluctuation of energy in any place. Thus, he was able to determine the location that was unreasonable.

The ground would not cave in for no reason.

For the land to cave in, it might be because the ground underneath was a vacant space. Or it might be because someone stepped on it from above. However, it was absolutely impossible for it to cave in without any reason.

With this theory, Emperor Yu discovered that the location that Qin Yu was at, the grass underneath him was being pressed down for no reason at all. Although valleys have winds, but the grass in the other areas of the valley was still not pressed down to that extent. If there was no external force being exerted upon it, why would the grass be pressed downward?

There was only a single explanation.

An existence that Emperor Yu was unable to detect was pressing down upon the grass.

Emperor Yu had determined that Qin Yu was there.

The theory was simple in speech but this Reef Yellow Star was such a large place, it was a boundless area with all kinds of places. There are deserts, swamps, valleys, mountains, forests... all kinds of tiny energies. Ants, air movements, rock movements...

Merely the population of the people was over a hundred million. The movements of each and every person would cause all kinds of effect to their surroundings. Each and every person's action would cause a chain reaction. Emperor Yu also have to take that into consideration. Otherwise, he would certainly make a mistaken in his judgement...

All in all, Emperor Yu had to analyze millions and millions of things in a split second. He had to determine whether or not each and every one of those places was within reasons. Unless one had a large Immortal Awareness, it was something that's impossible to be done. Even though this was the case, Emperor Yu also felt the mental exhaustion. That's why he did not immediately attack Qin Yu.

...

"Where did he go?" Shouted Zhi Bai toward Mu Yan.

Mu Yan shook his head helplessly and said. "Earlier that Qin Yu had received a palm strike of mine and then fall behind that mountain. However, when I got over there, I only discovered that he had disappeared."

Like the wind, Qin Yu was drifting. His valiant body had allowed him to be able to reach the speed of level eight or nine Golden Immortal without even using the Black Hole energy. In a flash, Qin Yu had arrived at a little village.

"This Emperor Yu is truly abnormal. How did he manage to find me earlier?" Even now, QIn Yu was still unable to get over that problem. "That shouldn't be the case. He was unable to detect my soul's aura nor was he able to detect my energy's aura. How did he manage to discover me?" Like an ordinary person, Qin Yu walked toward the village unhurriedly.

Fortunately, for Emperor Yu to use his Immortal Awareness to cover the entire Reef Yellow Star and then analyze every aspect of it was, even more tiring than fighting a battle. If Emperor Yu was able to immediately use his Immortal Awareness to analyze the entire planet once again, then it would be impossible for Qin Yu to flee.

"Big brother, are you an Immortal?" A six or seven year old child from this little village was looking at Qin Yu with wide open eyes.

"I guess so. What's wrong?" Said Qin Yu to this child while smiling.

Qin Yu had currently vanished his aura and has let himself become an ordinary man. He didn't believe that Emperor Yu would once again discover him.

This six or seven year old child took a gulp of saliva. With eyes wide open, he said hopingly. "Big brother, I want to cultivate into an Immortal. Can you teach me?"

Qin Yu was slightly startled.

There are non-cultivators in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm?

To be honest, even till now, Qin Yu was still not very clear about the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. There are some mortal planets, like this Reef Yellow Star, that are very big. The Reef Yellow Star possessed a diameter of several billions of miles. However, there were only three cities in the entire Reef Yellow Star. The distance between each city was over a billion miles.

A billion miles.

Outside of the three cities were some villages. Many of the people in those villages don't know how to cultivate. A distance of a billion miles, to these non-cultivators, was truly way too distant.

Thus, in many planets, there are tiny remote villages located outside of the cities and ordinary people that aren't cultivators living within those villages.

The greatest hope that those people had was to meet a foreigner or someone that flew by from the sky. That's because majority of those people were cultivators. What they hoped for the most was to learn how to cultivate from those people so that they can fly in the skies.

"I can." Qin Yu smiled at this child and said.

The child's eyes immediately shined brightly. He was so excited that his face had turned red. "That's awesome. Ah, I need to go tell mother."

At this moment, some people from the village had also discovered Qin Yu.

"Niu Wa." From afar a woman shouted loudly.

Qin Yu smiled. So this child is called Niu Wa. What a simple and honest name.

[TL: Niu Wa basically means Ox Child.]

"Mom, I met a..."

"Qin Yu, it seemed that you're pretty relaxed." Emperor Yu suddenly appeared. The current Emperor Yu's complexion wasn't very pale. It was because this time around, after he determined Qin Yu's location, he slightly rested before rushing over.

At the same time, two other figures appeared. It was the two great Immortal Emperors, Zhi Bai and Mu Yan.

As Emperor Yu was still talking, a golden thin sword suddenly appeared within his hand. With the golden thin sword as the center, an surging sword aura was being spread out. Qin Yu was only able to use his energy to protect little Niu Wa in time.

"Bang!" The area within a radius of several tens of miles were completely turned into dust. That little village from earlier had disappeared into nothingness.

"Mom!" Little Niu Wa who was being protected by Qin Yu were shouting nonstop. He was so pale very pale that it seemed as if there was no blood underneath his face.

Qin Yu's hand touched little Niu Wa's neck and little Niu Wa immediately fell unconscious. Qin Yu then immediately sent little Niu Wa into his Qingyu Immortal receive such a large shock, it's better for one to be unconscious.

"Emperor Yu, you did that deliberately." Qin Yu's eyes started to turn red.

"That's right, I did that deliberately." Emperor Yu's expression had also turned malevolent. "I already have no more patience to waste my time with you. I have made a mistaken assessment back on the Maple Moon Star and allowed you to escape. On the Blue Snow Star, I once again let you escape from me. This time around, I will certainly kill you."

Emperor Yu raised the golden thin sword in his hand. "Last time on the Blue Snow Star, in order to conceal my identity, I only used the Thunder God's Hammer against you. This time around, I shall let you experience my true strength that allowed me to move unhindered in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. This Divine Weapon is a mid level Divine Sword — 'Great Emperor's Sword.' "

"Pop!" "Pop!" "Pop!" "Pop!" ...

Several thousands of golden sword rays fell consecutively from the skies. Qin Yu's surroundings were filled with attacks by the golden sword rays. There wes nowhere for Qin Yu to dodge. He tried his best to dodge and receive the least amount of attacks.

"What's going on?"

After merely being hit by a golden sword ray, Qin Yu started to feel a sense of dizziness. Everything that he saw started to give seven or eight phantom images...

"What a strange attack."

Qin Yu had no way of defending against it...

"Where did he go?" Mu Yan looked everywhere in a state of confusion.

Emperor Yu had an ashen expression, and he once again spread out his Immortal Awareness and covered the entire Reef Yellow Star... he did not let any place slip past. A speck of sand, a tiny piece of grass, Emperor Yu was carefully analyzing everything.

He analyzed for the first time and was unable to find Qin Yu. His complexion had also grew pale.

He analyzed for the second time and was still unable to find Qin Yu. His complexion grew as pale as paper.

He analyzed for the third time, Emperor Yu's complexion suddenly turned red.

He forced down a mouthful of blood back into his stomach.

"He had hidden away again. He had hidden away again!" Emperor Yu was giving off a frightening frantic energy. Fiery anger burned within his eyes. "Like that time on the Blue Snow Star, Qin Yu decided to hole himself up again."

"Your Majesty?" Both Zhi Bai and Mu Yan were greatly shocked.

They had followed Emperor Yu for a long time and had only seen Emperor Yu getting angry twice. The first time was because of Emperor Ni Yang and the second time was because of Mystic Emperor. Never did they expect for Emperor Yu to get angry again.

"I had already anticipated that he would hide himself. Sure enough..." Emperor Yu's voice was ice-cold. "Transmit my order to the sixteen Immortal Emperors. They are to execute the 'Refining Flame' of the Sealing Element Refining Flame Array. Burn, burn the entire Reef Yellow Star completely. I just don't believe that he can still escape from this!"

"Your Majesty, you absolutely cannot." Mu Yan said hurriedly. "Reef Yellow Star is a huge planet. There are millions of Immortals and over a hundred million cultivators living here. If Your Majesty were to destroy such a planet, then it would be a very vile influence toward you."

"When Lin Yin destroyed a planet, who dared say anything about it? So what if I decided to burn one to ashes? This Blood River Galaxy was neither the Cyan Emperor's territory nor is it Mystic Emperor's territory, who in this Immortal Realm would dare speak ill of me? Burn it, burn the whole planet completely. I want to see how if that Qingyu Immortal Mansion would still be intact after being burned by the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame!" Emperor Yu's anger was soaring through the skies.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Mu Yan was only able to follow his order.

"Sixteen Emperors, listen up. First use the Blue Colored Heavenly Flame and burn down the entire planet. Then whatever that cannot be burned down, use the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame to once again burn it completely!" Mu Yan slightly changed Emperor Yu's command. If one were to continuously use Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame, then even if they're the Sixteen Immortal Emperors and possessed a formation array to assist them, they would likely all die from over exhaustion.

Chapter 65 – Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames

The Reef Yellow Star was covered in a thick layer of atmosphere. And now, outside of the atmosphere was a layer of net of light enclosing the entire Reef Yellow Star. In the skies surrounding the Reef Yellow Star, there are sixteen Immortal Emperors controlling the Sealing Element Refining Flame Array.

This time around, Emperor Yu had gathered a large amount of Immortal Emperors underneath him. Immortal Emperor Qian Qi, the leader of the Thirty Six Lords, was naturally amongst them. As his strength was considered to be pretty good, he had became one of the sixteen Immortal Emperors formation setters stationed in the Reef Yellow Star that Qin Yu was most likely to appear on.

Immortal Emperor Qian Qi was high up in the skies. He was standing there just like that. In his hand was a Transmission Spiritual Pearl. However, Immortal Emperor Qian Qi had a expression of finding something hard to believe.

"Burn down the entire planet? How is that possible? This is a huge planet and there are over a million Immortals. The amount of cultivators were even over a hundred million. Did Immortal Emperor Mu Yan mistaken the order?"

At this moment, Immortal Emperor Qian Qi did not immediately execute the order. Instead, he send a transmission back to inquire.

...

Not only Immortal Emperor Qian Qi, all of the sixteen Immortal Emperors in charge of setting up the Sealing Element Refining Flame Array have sent transmission back to Immortal Emperor Mu Yan and Emperor Yu to inquire again. They didn't dare to believe in the original transmission.

Immortal Emperor's Immortal Awareness swept through the contents of the Transmission Spiritual Pearl.

Immortal Emperor Mu Yan who stood next to him had also received the messages. He looked toward Emperor Yu and said with a slight anticipation. "Your Majesty?" Although Immortal Emperor Mu Yan can also be considered as vicious and merciless, but burning down an entire planet was too truly too ruthless.

"Everyone, start the Sealing Element Refining Flames Array's Refining Flames. Burn down the entire planet. No matter what, we must find Qin Yu." This time, Emperor Yu decided to give the command personally.

"Humph, the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames are immensely powerful; other than Immortal Artifacts, what else can't it burn?" Emperor Yu was filled with confidence. He then turned around and gave the Green Blooded Sword Immortal and the Yellow Gowned Immortal Emperor beside him orders. "Let's go, we'll leave the range of the Reef Yellow Star first."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Mu Yan and Zhi Bai accepted the order at the same time.

Immortal Emperor Mu Yan was a bit disappointed and frustrated in his heart. As for Zhi Bai, he didn't really care much about it. Wasn't it merely burning down planet? The boundless Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was filled with a countless amount of planets; so what if one were to be burned down?

When the sixteen great Immortal Emperors received Emperor Yu's personal command, they no longer held any wishful thinking.

Amongst the sixteen great Immortal Emperors, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan who was in charge of the great formation started to spread out his Immortal Awareness. He gave an order to the fifteen other Immortal Emperors. "Start out with the Blue Heavenly Flames, start the Refining Flames Technique."

Once he gave the order, the sixteen Immortal Emperors almost simultaneously executed the seal technique. Every one of the Immortal Emperor started to emit Blue Heavenly Flames from their bodies. They assimilated into the Hand Seal Technique. And, at this moment... the net of light that enclosed the entire Reef Yellow Star began to shine.

At the same time, the Elemental Spirit Energies within the boundless Cosmic Space started the move about frantically. They started to assemble on the Sealing Element Refining Flames Array's net of light. The energy of the entire great formation was increasing greatly. A dim blue flame started to burn atop the net of light that covered the entire Reef Yellow Star. Immediately after, lumps of flames were falling down from the net of light.

Sealing Element Refining Flames Array!

It had two major usages. One was to Seal Elements and the other was to Refine Flames.

Once the Refined Flames were dispatched, everything will become nothingness.

...

There are three major cities on the Reef Yellow Star. The cities take up an exceedingly vast area. Inside the cities were a large amount of cultivators.

Inside a restaurant.

"Great Martial Uncle, now that the entire Reef Yellow Star was sealed off and even the Interstellar Conveying Arrays are destroyed, we have simply no way to leave the Reef Yellow Star. What exactly should we do?" An elegant youth had an anxious expression on his face.

Majority of the people in this restaurant were looking at this Great Martial Uncle. He was a level eight Golden Immortal. In the Reef Yellow Star, he was already considered as a top-notch character.

"What should we do? We can only wait." This Great Martial Uncle also don't have any solution. "However, everyone should be at ease. This great formation array that sealed off the Reef Yellow Star ought to be the legendary Sealing Element Refining Flames Array. For them to use this formation array, it ought to be that the people who set up this formation array were trying to catch someone. I believe that after they catch that person, they would voluntarily undo the great formation array."

Hearing the words of the Great Martial Uncle, the people of the restaurant all grew a slightly more calm.

"Great Martial Uncle, look —" Suddenly, a youth who was sat near the window was pointing out the window. Astonished, he said. "that is... that is the Blue Heavenly Flames!"

A lump of man sized blue colored fireball fell from the sky. It tumbled onto the street. Soon, it exploded and, in an instant, flames covered the entire circumference of a hundred meters from the explosion. The ground was also immediately burned into ashes.

"Everyone, run." Suddenly someone shouted loudly.

Because even the roof of the restaurant were burning with blue flames, the rocks that the restaurant were composed of and those defensive barriers have absolutely no means of resistance. Easily, the Blue Heavenly Flames have burned everything down.

As if he had gone mad, that Great Martial Uncle rushed out of the restaurant.

What he saw with a single glance.

As far as the eye can see, covering everything, the entire Reef Yellow Star was raining fireballs composed of Blue Heavenly Flames. Boundless amount... densely packed. There was nowhere safe.

Seeing this scene, this 'Great Martial Uncle' stood there expressionlessly. He knew that it was impossible for even experts of the Immortal Emperor level to send out this much Blue Heavenly Flames at once. In fact, even the sixteen Immortal Emperors who set up the great formation array were only able to send out this much Blue Heavenly Flames with the help of the great formation array and after absorbing the Cosmic Energies.

"Blue Heavenly Flames, this much Blue Heavenly Flames. Could it be, could it be that they really used the 'Refining Flames' of the Sealing Element Refining Flames Array?" Great Martial Uncle started to tremble. Within his eyes were surprise and fear.

"Who is it, who is it that's crazy to such extreme, who is it that's so savage? Refining Flames, Refining Flames, are you to refine this entire planet, refine the millions of Immortals, and over a hundred millions of cultivators?" An extremely loud bellow, enough to shout himself hoarse, was being shouted from from this Great Martial Uncle's mouth.

A Blue Heavenly Flame came crashing down directly on this Great Martial Uncle.

An Immortal Sword appeared in the Great Martial Uncle's hand. With a sword strike, he struck back that Blue Heavenly Flame. As a level eight Golden Immortal, even when faced with Blue Heavenly Flames, it was still not that easy for him to die.

"Who is it? Who exactly is it?!" Angry bellows sounded from other areas of the city.

Countless amount of Immortals and countless amount of cultivators were in frantic rage!

The person who set up this large formation array wanted to kill them; and not only them, but rather all of the people in this entire planet. Such viciousness and mercilessness had caused these Immortals who have been overcome with feelings of despair to grow frantically angry!

...

Angry bellows rose and fell in succession from the entire Reef Yellow Star. The cultivators were unable to resist the Blue Heavenly Flames and died immediately. Even the Heavenly Immortals died on the spot.

Only the Golden Immortals were able to resist for a moment.

However, the Golden Immortals knew that they were only able to resist for a moment and that once the Blue Heavenly Flames surrounded them... they would also undoubtedly die.

Anger! Despair! Hysteria!

"Who is it?! Who exactly is it?!"

The desperate Golden Immortals were roaring in anger. Even the strongest person in the entire Reef Yellow Star was merely a level nine Golden Immortal. (Other than Qin Yu.) Against the endless amount of Blue Heavenly Flames, they were simply unable to resist them.

The roars of the Golden Immortals resounded through heaven and earth. Emperor Yu, Mu Yan and Zhi Bai who are high up in the space above the Reef Yellow Star were also able to hear them clearly.

Immortal Emperor Mu Yan had a very complicated expression on his face. As he heard the numerous bellows of despair and the hatred within those voices, his heart also slightly trembled. As for the Green Blooded Sword Immortal Zhi Bai, he had pulled back his eyes.

As for Emperor Yu...

His face was completely emotionless. However, there was instead a slight excitement in his eyes.

"What a large resentment. You all can resent all you want. Unfortunately, even till death, you still won't know who killed you." Emperor Yu was not swayed in the slightest. "Qin Yu, I have even buried an entire planet with you, you should die happily now."

...

A speck of sand in the Reef Yellow Star. It was precisely what the Jiang Lan's Realm had turned into.

Within the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Qin Yu had already taken Little Niu Wa out from the Qingyu Immortal Mansion and into the Jiang Lan's Realm. Little Niu Wa was still unconscious. Qin Yu didn't know how to explain the situation to him after he wake up.

"It's all because of me." Qin Yu was filled with guilt.

Suddenly—

"Huh, fire?" Qin Yu sensed that the Jiang Lan's Realm was being burned by the Blue Heavenly Flames. He was unable to refrain from feeling strange.

Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness started to spread out from the Jiang Lan's Realm. In a short moment, it encompassed half of the Reef Yellow Star. What he saw caused him to shiver and his eyes to redden.

That extremely big Reef Yellow Star was one tenth of its former size. All the other places were burned into nothingness. Under the Blue Heavenly Flames, those rocks and so on were burned so bad that there was not even any ashes left.

"Who is it? Who is it that wanted to kill us?" "Who exactly is it? Who is it?"

The angry roars were still resounding unceasingly in the skies above the Reef Yellow Star. Several hundred Golden Immortals with strong powers were still flying in the skies. Every one of them were filled with a malevolent expression. Their gaze was filled with intention to kill.

Frantic. Hysteria.

The struggle before death!

The angry roars have caused Qin Yu to shiver in his heart.

He have never anticipated for Emperor Yu to be thus ruthless. When he was on the Blue Snow Star, Emperor Yu was unable to find him and ultimately only dispatched people to monitor him. However this time... Emperor Yu actually wanted to burn down the entire planet.

"Emperor Yu, Emperor Yu..." Qin Yu's mind was in a chaos.

The frantic yells of those several hundred Golden Immortals have caused Qin Yu to rage, to surge. He was surging with guilt toward everyone in the planet, extreme hatred toward Emperor Yu and hatred toward himself!

An entire planet, the Reef Yellow Star that was even larger than his own home planet.

How many cultivators, how many Immortals were in there? However... they are all dead or about to die. Furthermore, they were burned into nothingness by the Blue Heavenly Flames; not even their ashes remained.

Under the burning flames of the Blue Heavenly Flames, the remaining couple hundred Golden Immortals all started to fall and die. However, their angry bellows continued to echo in the Sealing Element Refining Flames Array.

The humongous Reef Yellow Star started to grow smaller and smaller. At this moment, it was only as big as a single mountain. However, under the burning flames of the Blue Heavenly Flames, this mountain sized Reef Yellow Star was still growing smaller little by little.

Eight Golden Immortals.

These eight Golden Immortals, seven of them were level nine Golden Immortals and the other one was a level eight Golden Immortal. These eight Golden Immortals were still struggling. They had already flew as close as possible to the net of light.

"Who is it? Who exactly is it that killed us?"

These eight Golden Immortals were shouting furiously toward the net of light.

There was only a final obsession in the hearts of these eight Golden Immortals — to know who the murderer was. They knew that they have no hopes of obtaining revenge. However, they still wanted to know who exactly it was that killed them.

In the sky up atmospheric skies, Emperor Yu's group were looking at these final eight Golden Immortals.

"A bunch of ants." Emperor Yu's voice was ice-cold. He then immediately ordered. "The Reef Yellow Star was surprisingly still this big. Those are mostly top quality ores, it is already very hard to refine them with the Blue Heavenly Flames; execute the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames!"

The sixteen Immortal Emperors all accepted the orders.

Experts at the level of Heavenly Immortals have regular Heavenly Flame as their Nascent Soul's True Flame. And those experts at the level of Golden Immortals, their True Flame was the Blue Heavenly Flame. As for Immortal Emperor level experts, their True Flame was the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame.

Even for Immortal Emperors, they only possessed a small amount of Extremely Silent Heavenly Flame within their body.

The sixteen Immortal Emperors was only able to create a large lump of Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames with the assistance of the Sealing Element Refining Flame Array that borrowed the power of Cosmic Energies.

The complexion of these sixteen Immortal Emperors all started to turn somewhat reddened. They executed hand seals in succession. Threads of blurry golden flames were being shot out from their palms. At the same time, the entire Sealing Element Refining Flames Array also started to tremble. The Cosmic Energies started to frantically gather toward the Sealing Element Refining Flames Array.

The internal flame was colored gold and the external flame was colored blue.

That was precisely the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames.

One by one, Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames were shot out from the net of light. Several hundred Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames were shot out in succession from the net of light. At the same time, the net of light was also absorbing Cosmic Energies to brew the next group of Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames.

"It's, it's the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames!" The final eight Golden Immortals were dumbstruck.

"Kill them." Emperor Yu ordered.

The sixteen Immortal Emperors who controlled the great formation array immediately controlled the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames to surround the eight Golden Immortals. Even if the eight Golden Immortals were to once again flee for their lives, they were still unable to run faster than the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames. Their Immortal Swords were burned and melted by the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames.

With the body of Golden Immortals, when confronted with Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames, they possessed no strength to resist and was immediately burned into nothingness. Even their Nascent Souls were melted into a liquid. After the energy within their Nascent Souls were completely consumed, it was also burned into nothingness.

"Who exactly is it that killed us?"

The final roar sounded. The final Golden Immortal was also killed. Even death... they did not know who the killer was.

And at this moment, several hundred Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames have covered that little mountain from all sides. That little mountain was what remained of the entire Reef Yellow Star after being burned and refined by the Blue Heavenly Flames.

"Chi Chi —- with an frightening speed, that little mountain was rapidly reducing in size. After a short moment of time, the Sealing Element Refining Flames Array once again sent out a new round of Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames.

The volume of the little mountain was rapidly decreasing.

Finally, it turned to the size of a common house. Gradually... this house sized lump continued to grow smaller. At the same time, it also started to turn into a liquid and started to drip in all directions... after finally refining it completely, the liquid was merely the size of half a house.

"Your Majesty, those liquid are materials that could be refined into Top Quality Immortal Swords. The most we they can be refined to was liquid, it was impossible to completely refine them." Said Mu Yan.

In order to refine a Top Quality Immortal Sword, the flame that was needed was precisely the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames.

"Where is Qin Yu's Divine Artifact? That Qingyu Immortal Mansion was certainly unable to resist the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames; Qin Yu ought to be dead. However, his Divine Artifacts would not be melted by the flames, where are his Divine Artifacts?" Emperor Yu carefully used his Immortal Awareness to inspect the large chunk of liquid that was being burned by the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames. "The Divine Artifacts did not appear, it signals that Qin Yu still didn't die."

"Could it be that the Qingyu Immortal Mansion was not burned?" A cold smile appeared on Emperor Yu's face. "Even if it didn't manage to get burned, it was still definitely in that lump of liquid."

Chapter 66 – Jiang Lan's Realm's Defense

Emperor Yu's Immortal Awareness was carefully inspecting every liquid droplet. However, he didn't know that the Jiang Lan's Realm had already been turned into a liquid droplet by Qin Yu. Emperor Yu was carefully inspecting everything, his expression had gradually turned pale.

...

"The characteristic of a droplet are very hard to imitate. As it moved, its form was constantly changing." Qin Yu was trying his hardest to control the change in the appearance of the Jiang Lan's Realm. As the water droplet touched other droplets, deformation would occur. Qin Yu needed to change the Jiang Lan's Realm whenever that happen.

All in all, to change into a liquid is a lot harder than changing into a solid.

Qin Yu was able to clearly sense Emperor Yu's Immortal Awareness carefully examining everything. In order to not be discovered, this was the only thing that Qin Yu could do.

...

"Withdraw the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames!" Emperor Yu suddenly commanded.

At once, the sixteen Immortal Emperors obeyed the order and stopped. One by one, the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames withdrew from that lump of liquid. After losing the burning of the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames, those liquid immediately started to condense into a solid.

"Haha... Qin Yu, what a Qin Yu ah. Let me see how you're going to escape?" Emperor Yu displayed an excited smile.

He immediately rushed toward the light net of the Sealing Element Refining Flame Array. The sixteen Immortal Emperors immediately allowed Emperor Yu to pass through. In a moment, Emperor Yu had flew next to that lump of liquid. "Qin Yu, you can stop hiding, I know that you can hear me." Emperor Yu had an extremely confident expression.

"You turned the Qingyu Immortal Mansion into a droplet and were even changing the property of it according to the characteristic of water droplets, that's certainly astonishing. I also didn't manage to discover you all this time... Unfortunately, I suddenly removed the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames and the other droplets immediately solidified. Amongst all these water droplets, there was only one that solidified a bit slower. Although the time was very short, but it was easily detected by my Immortal Awareness."

Within the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Qin Yu felt helpless.

No matter how fast a person's reaction was, it is unable to compare to that of the natural reaction of a liquid. When the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames were removed, those liquid droplets instinctively solidified. By the time Qin Yu reacted, his reaction speed was already a bit slower.

Although it were merely a moment slower, but with Emperor Yu's Immortal Awareness, it was easily distinguished.

"Emperor Yu, you are certainly amazing. That's right, I have been discovered by you. However, so what if I am? You think that you can catch me?" Qin Yu did not care at all. Jiang Lan's Realm was a Divine Artifact, Qin Yu was confident in its defense.

To destroy a Divine Artifact was an extremely difficult matter.

Divine Artifact, as its name implies, are weapons refined in the Divine Realm. People of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm wanted to break it? That's extremely difficult.

"Haha... Qin Yu, could it be that you think that the Qingyu Immortal Mansion could protect you?" Emperor Yu's tone was filled with disdain.

Qin Yu was slightly startled. Qinyu Immortal Mansion?

Immediately after, Qin Yu realized that even till now Emperor Yu was still thinking that he was hiding in the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. Emperor Yu didn't know about the existence of the Jiang Lan's Realm at all.

"Immortal Emperor Ni Yang, I didn't even consider him to be extremely powerful back in the days. However, never did I expect that, before his death, he would increase the defense of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion to a level that even the Extremely Silent Heavenly Flames were unable to burn through it. Worthy of admiration, truly worthy of admiration."

Emperor Yu said indifferently. "However, Qin Yu you shouldn't be happy too quick. Even that Divine Armor of yours, the Black Frozen Snow, I was still able to break through it. Let alone this Qingyu Immortal Mansion of yours."

Qin Yu was startled.

Break through a Divine Armor?

"Back then granny Yin Hua had said that there are no less than ten people in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm that could break through my Divine Armor. It would appear that this Emperor Yu was one of them." Qin Yu grew a bit worried.

The Divine Armor is a Divine Artifact. Jiang Lan's Realm is also a Divine Artifact. Would Emperor Yu be able to break through that?

Qin Yu was confused. In order to break a Divine Artifact, the people of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm could only use another Divine Artifact. At the same time, the user of the Divine Artifact must have enough power to display the attack power of the Divine Artifact.

Back in the Blue Snow Star, in order to hide his identity, Emperor Yu had only used the Thunder God's Hammer. The power of the Thunder God's Hammer was not considered to be large. Thus, it was naturally unable to break through Qin Yu's Divine Armor.

However, Emperor Yu's true weapon — Great Emperor's Sword, was a weapon of the same rank as the Divine Sword Sky Piercer.

Great Emperor's Sword was a mid quality Divine Weapon. With Emperor Yu's strength that surpassed Qin Yu's, he was absolutely able to break through Qin Yu's Divine Armor with the Great Emperor's Sword. After all, the Divine Armor was unable to fully exert its defense when being worn by Qin Yu.

"Could Emperor Yu be able to break through the Jiang Lan's Realm? Uncle Lan had also not told me exactly what level Divine Artifact this Jiang Lan's Realm was." Qin Yu grew puzzled.

However, he had forgotten.

That with his current power, he was merely able to open the first layer of Jiang Lan's Realm. Would the Jiang Lan's Realm be an ordinary Divine Artifact?

"Break!"

With a loud shout, Emperor Yu held the Great Emperor's Sword in his hand as he pierce through the air. That thrust was so strong that it was able to break apart top quality Immortal Weapons easily. The tip of the Great Emperor's Sword just happened to thrusted at the speck of solid that the Jiang Lan's Realm had turned into.

That speck of solid was green colored.

As the Great Emperor's Sword was thrusted at it, the Jiang Lan's Realm unexpectedly did not shudder in the slightest.

Emperor Yu's face that was previously filled with confidence had instead turned to one of shock.

"How could this be?" Emperor Yu was extremely shocked. That thrust of his was at least eighty percent of his strength. Even if it was the Divine Armor, Black Frozen Snow, would also likely be close to breaking. However, this Qingyu Immortal Mansion, why did it not have any reaction?

Qin Yu who was in the Jiang Lan's Realm took a deep sigh of relief.

"Impossible, Qin Yu, what exactly did Immortal Emperor Ni Yang did to the Qingyu Immortal Mansion? How is it possible for it to withstand against my Great Emperor's Sword?" Unable to understand, Emperor Yu instead asked Qin Yu.

Qin Yu's heart started to calm down.

He randomly fabricated a lie. He still didn't want others to know about the existence of the Jiang Lan's Realm yet. "Emperor Yu, Immortal Emperor had no choice but to face death because of you all. However, before he died, senior Immortal Emperor Ni Yang instead came to a comprehension and created an extremely powerful defensive barrier. You want to break through that? In your dreams."

"A defensive barrier that he came to comprehension before his death?" Emperor Yu was filled with amazement. "This Ni Yang was truly amazing for him to actually create such an outstanding defensive barrier."

No matter who Emperor Yu asked, it was still impossible for this lie to be broken.

Afterall, even the White Haired Blood Devil Xiu Yileng, although he was only attacking Qin Yu's Qingyu Immortal Mansion, was unable to break through the defensive barrier. Thus, he naturally didn't know about the true defensive power of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.

"A defensive barrier that Ni Yang came to a comprehension and created on his deathbed. No matter how strong that is, it can't be that strong." Reaching this point, how could Emperor Yu possibly give up?

He held up the Great Emperor's Sword.

Rows of Golden Light were being emitted from the Great Emperor's Sword.

At the same time, Emperor Yu was executing numerous hand seals with his left hand. A marvelous golden talisman seal was shot toward the Great Emperor's Sword from Emperor Yu's hand. The golden light of the Great Emperor's Sword grew even more dazzling. However, Emperor Yu still haven't attacked. He was continuously storing up the attack power.

"Come at me if you have the skills." Qin Yu was filled with confidence. "That sword strike from you earlier did not even cause even the slightest effect to the Jiang Lan's Realm. Even if you were to increase your power by ten-fold, it was still impossible for you to break through the Jiang Lan's Realm. Uncle Lan's Jiang Lan's Realm's defense was truly amazing... I truly wonder what level Divine Artifact this Jiang Lan's Realm is."

Having received an attack, Qin Yu already had an understanding of the Jiang Lan's Realm's defense.

Emperor Yu wanted to break it? He's far from capable.

Emperor Yu's complexion started to turn red. The golden light of the Great Emperor's Sword that he held had already grew to an incomparable level of brightness. At the same time, the Great Emperor's Sword was trembling unceasingly. It was as if it wanted to fly out from Emperor Yu's hand.

Emperor Yu knew that this was the maximum attack power that he was able to display with the Great Emperor's Sword. All of the energies were completely bonded together. At the same time, talisman seals were used to create a regulated entity; causing the attack power to grow even more powerful.

If the energies within the Great Emperor's Sword were to spread out, it was enough to destroy a planet. However, these energies were currently condensed together.

"Break apart!"

Following a bellow!

The Great Emperor's Sword had turned into an extremely thin golden ray. Ferociously, it was shot at the green speck.

"Bang!"

The Jiang Lan's Realm was still not damaged in the slightest.

Qin Yu who was inside the Jiang Lan's Realm had a cold smile. "Could it be that this was your strongest attack? Unfortunately, Jiang Lan's Realm was not even damaged in the slightest. You want to break through the Jiang Lan's Realm? You're far from capable."

Emperor Yu's expression changed. A sweet sensation was felt in his throat as a trace of blood escaped from the corner of his mouth.

Emperor Yu was injured.

"What a strong defense, even that Divine Armor didn't have such a strong defense." Emperor Yu had a ashen complexion. Although he had trapped Qin Yu, but he was completely unable to do anything to Qin Yu.

Within the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Qin Yu now no longer cared about Emperor Yu who was outside. He knew... that Emperor Yu cannot do anything to the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Qin Yu wave his sleeve back and the Qingyu Immortal Mansion appeared on the green grounds of the Jiang Lan's Realm. At the same time, Qin Yu took out four people from the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas — Kong Lan, Tu Gang, Tang Meng and Wan'er.

"Paying our respect to the master." The four bowed simultaneously.

Qin Yu nodded and said. "Kong Lan, I have a matter to request of you four."

"Master please speak." As the chief of the second layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, Kong Lan was naturally the leader of the four.

Qin Yu pointed at the unconscious little Niu Wa and said. "That Emperor Yu, in order to catch me, had already burned down the entire Reef Yellow Star. This little Niu Wa was the only survivor. I have here a method of cultivation, you four are to temporary help me teach him."

The current Qin Yu did not have time at all to teach little Niu Wa.

The education at the time when one's a child was very important. Qin Yu did not wish for little Niu Wa to still have the temperament of a child after he grew older.

"Usually Wan'er would take charge of little Niu Wa's everyday life. Tu Gang and Tang Meng were to be in charge of teaching cultivation attacks and so on. You guys are also to teach him some interaction between people and so on. Kong Lan... you are to supervise and plan everything." Said Qin Yu directly.

"Yes, master." The four immediately accepted the orders.

"You all can just live in the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, if there's a matter, you can just send me a transmission." With a movement of Qin Yu's intention, the inside of the entire Jiang Lan's Realm have changed. The green grounds that Qin Yu was currently at had already separated itself completely from the surroundings.

Without Qin Yu's permission, it was also impossible for Kong Lan and them to see him.

This green ground was the location where Qin Yu was about to train at.

"Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, in order to open the third layer, one needed the strength of a level one Immortal Emperor." Qin Yu grasped the scroll in his hand. He felt very helpless in his heart. He had already attempted to open the third layer.

However, his strength was still insufficient. The mid level Black Hole Realm's strength was only close to that of a level nine Golden Immortal. There was still a large gap between it and a level one Immortal Emperor.

Qin Yu sat cross-legged on the green ground.

"At the very least, I would cultivate all the way till the late level Black Hole Realm and open the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Scroll. I wonder what kind of Demon Emperors are in the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Scroll and how strong their attack power are?"

Suddenly, Qin Yu's gaze grew cold. "Never did I expect that this Emperor Yu is still not giving up." That was because he had sensed that his Jiang Lan's Realm was being frantically attacked by numerous Immortal Emperors.

...

A speck of green.

Surrounding that speck was more than a dozen Immortal Emperors. These Immortal Emperors were all Emperor Yu's elite subordinates. Some of them have rushed over from the other two planets. After all, since Qin Yu had arrived at the Reef Yellow Star, the traps laid in the other two planets have became useless.

Emperor Yu had a slightly ugly expression.

"Whoever managed to break through this green speck, I will bestow upon him a Divine Artifact." Emperor Yu's orders resounded in their ears again. Although Divine Artifacts are precious, but these Immortal Emperors that possessed their own special techniques instead only looked at each other helplessly.

Earlier, more than a dozen Immortal Emperors tested it out themselves in succession. They frantically attacked this tiny speck of green!

They even attacked the speck of green together with Emperor Yu. However, they were still unable to do anything to it.

"Your Majesty, how could the Qingyu Immortal Mansion possess such a defense?" Immortal Emperor Mu Yan's face was filled with an astonished expression.

Emperor Yu's expression was also ashen. He said cold and matter-of-factly. "That's merely what that Qin Yu said. As to whether or not that's actually the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, that's still up for debate. However, if this green speck wasn't the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, then what could it be?"

In the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, no one have ever heard of a Divine Artifact with a spatial area within it.

Jiang Lan's Realm was completely different from all the storage pocket type Divine Artifacts. Although storage pocket type Divine Artifacts are very precious, they were only able to store objects. No matter what, they were unable to store people; unless it's a corpses!

Those who don't have the concept of spatial area type Divine Artifacts, how could they imagine a spatial area type Divine Artifact?

"If it's not the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, then what is it?" All of the Immortal Emperors felt helpless.

"Emperor Yu, even after death, Immortal Emperor Ni Yang is still stronger than you. That Qingyu Immortal Mansion that he created, it is impossible for you to break through it." Qin Yu's voice sounded from the green speck. This caused the whole bunch of Immortal Emperors to look toward the green speck.

Emperor Yu tried his hardest to suppress his anger. He said. "Qing Yu, you need not continue to stubbornly resist. I will give you a final opportunity, as long as you immediately come out of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion and hand over the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas and the Bewitching God Painting, I will spare your life. The Divine Armor and the Divine Sword Sky Piercer would be yours. I, Emperor Yu, will certainly accomplish what I said!"

Qin Yu heard those words and didn't know what to say.

"Emperor Yu, you're going to spare my life? Haha... I'll be in the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, if you have the ability, then come in and catch me. You can't even break through the Qingyu Immortal Mansion yet you're here acting all high-sounding as if your heart was so broad and wide. Don't you forget about how the millions upon millions of cultivators of the Reef Yellow Star died!" Said Qin Yu. The later words of his also contained within them anger.

Emperor Yu was angry to the extreme, however, he smiled. "Millions upon millions of cultivators of the Reef Yellow Star? That's right, there are millions upon millions of cultivators and I killed them all. What about it? Could it be that you want revenge? With you who only knew about hiding and fleeing? Revenge? Haha..."

Even if Emperor Yu was angry, he still must incite Qin Yu to come out.

"Emperor Yu, remember that it's not that I won't take my revenge but instead that the time is not yet right." Said Qin Yu coldly. After saying those words, he stopped responding to any words that Emperor Yu said.

Inside the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Qin Yu sat cross-legged and started to calmly train.

Chapter 67 – Matchless Great Sword

No matter what disaster falls upon the Jiang Lan's Realm from the outside world, Qin Yu would still not care about it. The current Qin Yu was wholeheartedly training.

Within the third layer space of Qin Yu's soul's Earthly Soul Realm.

Qin Yu's awareness took the shape of a person, it was continuously executing series after series of hand seals. The 'Three Souls Nine Refinements' have a total of a hundred and eight hand seals. There were thirty six hand seals for each the Mortal Soul Realm, Earthly Soul Realm and the Heavenly Soul Realm.

Currently, Qin Yu was practicing the thirty six hand seals of the Earthly Soul Realm. With his current soul's power, Qin Yu was only able to execute twenty four hand seals at a stretch. When Qin Yu become able to execute all thirty six hand seals at a stretch, it would be the time when he successfully completed the entire Earthly Soul Realm.

Time passed by.

The amount of hand seals Qin Yu was able to execute at a single stretch turned from the original twenty four to twenty five and then to twenty six...

Within the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.

A robust youngster had turned his whole body into a mirage. He was frantically attacking Kong Lan. Kong Lan, merely using only a single hand, casually and easily stopped all of the robust youngster's attacks.

"Eldest Master, let's rest for a while." The robust youngster kneeled to the ground with a single knee.

"Big brother, let him rest for a bit. He is only at the Kongming stage." A beautiful white clothed woman walked over. It was Tan Meng. At this moment, Tan Meng was holding a plate on her hand. On the plate was a single fruit.

Qingyu Immortal Mansion was originally a place that with a lot of fruit trees; and now, the fruit trees were transported to the surroundings by Tan Meng.

"Second master." The robust youngster's eyes shined as he saw Tan Meng. Rapidly, he ran to her. He picked up that fruit and immediately gnaw down on it.

"Second master, when would master Qin Yu come out?" The robust youth suddenly asked.

"Niu Wa, do not be anxious, master is still cultivating." Said Tan Meng while smiling. This robust youngster was precisely the older Niu Wa. Because the amount of Elemental Spirit Energy within the Jiang Lan's Realm was ten times of the outside world and adding on the fact that Niu Wa was originally a child of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, his aptitude was a lot better than the children of the Mortal Realm. In merely a dozen or so years, he have already reached the Kongming stage.

With Tan Meng, Wan'er, Tu Gang and Kong Lan accompanying and educating him, although Niu Wa still remembered the calamity from his childhood, but he was instead very optimistic. He only remembered that his main enemy was Emperor Yu.

"Boom!"

A cyan colored Heavenly Thunder stuck down from the sky. A robust man was holding a battle knife as he ruthlessly hack it toward the thunder. His slash hacked away more than half of the power of the thunder. The rest of the Heavenly Thunder hit his body. This robust man's complexion merely grew a little bit red.

"Nine-in-Nine Heavenly Tribulation is only that strong." The robust man laughed.

That Heavenly Thunder from earlier was already the final Heavenly Thunder of the Nine-in-Nine Heavenly Tribulation.

"Niu Wa, don't be complacent, this Nine-in-Nine Heavenly Tribulation of yours wasn't powerful. The Nine-in-Nine Heavenly Tribulations of Divine Beasts are a lot stronger than yours. Your Nine-in-Nine Heavenly Tribulation was merely only at the strength of a regular cultivator's." Kong Lan walked over.

In this year, Qin Yu had already cultivated for thirty years.

Fifty years, eighty years, a hundred years...

Sealing Element Refining Flames Array have been maintained the whole time. Those sixteen Immortal Emperors who set up the array were also sitting around in the skies. Fortunately,not a lot of energy was needed in order to maintain the large formation array. However, these sixteen Immortal Emperors were still very tired.

That's because ten years have already passed.

Inside the Sealing Element Refining Flame Arrays.

A group of Immortal Emperors under Emperor Yu were standing next to that speck of green. All these years, they were unable to do anything to that speck of green. As for Emperor Yu himself, he was instead not present. No one knew where he went go.

Suddenly, two people appeared from the Cosmic Space.

The first person was precisely Emperor Yu donned in a purple gown. As for the second person, it was a white clothed beautiful woman. Between the brows of this girl was a little bit of golden light. She was giving off a kind of repressive feeling.

"Xi'er, it's over there."

Emperor Yu was holding that white clothed woman's hand and flying toward the location of the Sealing Element Refining Flames Array.

"Feng Yu, you truly are ruthless, the entire Reef Yellow Star was burned into nothingness; did you know that... as this matter was spread out and with you all staying here for all these years, I reckon that the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm knew that it was you who who caused this massacre." Said the white clothed woman helplessly.

Emperor Yu smiled indifferently; he said. ""Xi'er, when did you also start to care about those opinions? Wasn't the purpose of our lives to attain power so that we can ascend to the Divine Realm?"

The white clothed woman also smiled indifferently. "Cruelness of the method doesn't matter; however, the way you did it causes too much influence. Back then, Lin Yin went mad and destroyed a planet after his son died. No one say much about it. You, on the other hand, destroyed a planet because you wanted to catch someone."

As the two were speaking, they had already passed through the Sealing Element Refining Flames Array.

Seeing Emperor Yu and the white clothed girl coming over, how would the sixteen Immortal Emperors setting up the formation array dared block their path? They had already created a path for them.

As for the Immortal Emperors that are within the Sealing Element Refining Flames Array, when they saw that Emperor Yu came with the white clothed woman hand in hand, they were unable to refrain their astonishment.

"The Mystic Emperor actually came together with His Majesty?" Zhi Bai sent a voice transmission to Immortal Emperor Mu Yan who was next to him.

Immortal Emperor Mu Yan also nodded, he replied via voice transmission. "His Majesty was certainly amazing. He had got into such a huge fight with the Mystic Emperor but now he managed to coax her back again. However, as they are husband and wife, no matter how big of a fight they get into, they would still not reach the stage of separation."

"For the Bewitching God Painting, His Majesty apologized to the Mystic Emperor; what a rare occurrence." Zhi Bai gasped in admiration.

That white clothed woman was precisely one of the three big shots of the Immortal Realm, Mystic Emperor. The Mystic Emperor and Emperor Yu were husband and wife; it's just that the two of them both possessed very strong subordinates and are both very strong-minded. When the two of them started to fight, neither admitted defeat and thus they separated.

This time, in order to obtain the Bewitching God Painting, Emperor Yu actually went and apologized. As for the Mystic Emperor... having received face and, at the same time, she was also very interested in the Bewitching God Painting, she naturally decided to come with Emperor Yu.

When comparing strength, Emperor Yu and the Mystic Emperor were on par.

Furthermore, the two of them were also companions. When they join hands, their strengths doubles.

"Feng Yu, is this green speck the 'Qingyu Immortal Mansion' that you spoke of?" The Mystic Emperor glanced at that green speck. She pointed at it and asked.

Emperor Yu nodded and said. "That's right, I tried every possible method and was still unable to break through it. The only thing I can do is find your help."

"You would only come find me when you reach such a point; normally, you even refused to look at me." Mystic Emperor gave a cold humph and said. Emperor Yu immediately felt bitter in his heart, he really wanted to slap his own face.

The Immortal Emperors nearby were all snickering in their hearts. However, they didn't dare to display even the slightest smile on their face.

"You all withdraw first." Shouted Emperor Yu to the surrounding Immortal Emperors.

""Yes, Your Majesty." These Immortal Emperors all flew away. Following their departure, Emperor Yu displayed a smile as he looked toward the Mystic Emperor. "Xi'er, is it not enough for me to apologize for my wrongdoings? Let's break apart this Qingyu Immortal Mansion first."

Mystic Emperor started smiling. She nodded and said. "Fine, you best not forget about what you promised me."

Emperor Yu felt bitter in his heart.

In order to ask Xuan Xi to come here, he promised Xuan Xi a thing: This time, the Divine Artifacts on Qin Yu, the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas would be Emperor Yu's. The Divine Armor and the Divine Sword, Sky Piercer, would be the Mystic Emperor's. As for the Bewitching God Painting, the two of them would share it. At the same time... Emperor Yu must also serve the Mystic Emperor for a thousand years.

A thousand years, and Emperor Yu must also serve her personally.

"Let's start then." Urged Emperor Yu.

"Mn." Mystic Emperor nodded. The Great Emperor's Sword appeared in Emperor Yu's hand. As for Xuan Xi, a jade green colored long sword appeared in her hand. This long sword appeared to have water flowing through it; it looked very special. This jade green colored long sword was Mystic Emperor's weapon — Divine Sword, Flowing Great Sword.

Great Emperor's Sword, Flowing Great Sword.

They were Divine Swords the two of them obtained together.

Xuan Xi and Emperor Yu glanced at each other and then they closed their eyes simultaneously.

At the same time, the Great Emperor's Sword and the Flowing Great Sword soared to the sky. The hand seals that Emperor Yu and Xuan Xi were executing with their hands were exactly the same. Finally, they even softly spoke special chants. The Great Emperor's Sword and the Flowing Great Sword started to shine brilliantly.

One was gold and the other was jade green.

Suddenly —

Emperor Yu and Xuan Xi who were standing there non-moving actually started to rotate. As if the space was shifting, the location of the two were constantly switching. At the same time, the Great Emperor's Sword and the Flowing Great Sword combined together. An extremely sharp Sword Aura was soaring in the skies.

The Great Emperor's Sword and the Flowing Great Sword combined into one. They became the High Quality Divine Weapon, 'Matchless Great Sword.'

"Is that the legendary Matchless Great Sword?" Green Blood Sword Immortal Zhi Bai who stood outside of the Sealing Soul Refining Flames Arrays watched the scene with a completely astonished expression.

The emission of the sword aura had distorted the entire space. Zhi Bai, Immortal Emperor Mu Yan and the rest were unable to clearly see Xuan Xi and Emperor Yu.

"Break!"

As if simultaneously, the shouts sounded. It was Emperor Yu and Xuan Xi's shouts.

"Space Crack!" Shocked, Immortal Emperor Mu Yan shouted.

A tiny black crack appeared. That misty and indistinct looking sword, the Matchless Great Sword, was thrust directly at that green speck. The entire space started to shake. "Klang!" The Matchless Great sword had once again separated into two long swords — the Great Emperor's Sword and the Flowing Great Sword.

Emperor Yu and Mystic Emperor both caught their respective swords. Their complexions were very pale.

"How could this be?" Emperor Yu looked at that still unchanged speck of green. His expression was very unsightly. "Xi'er, with the two of us acting together, our strength was most definitely that of a level nine Immortal Emperor. On top of that, we have the power of the High Quality Divine Weapon, Matchless Great Sword. How can we not break through that?"

Xuan Xi looked at that green speck and started to frown.

"Feng Yu, have you noticed that this speck of green did not even move from from its original position after receiving our attack?" Xuan Xi noticed an area of confusion.

Emperor Yu also noticed this.

Even if its defense was to be very strong, but to receive such a powerful attack, at the very least it should have knocked flying. However, this speck of green did not even move. Unfortunately... how could Emperor Yu and Xuan Xi possibly knew about the powerfulness of the Jiang Lan's Realm?

Their attack?

Even if it was to be ten times stronger, Jiang Lan's Realm could still easily strip away all of the attack power.

xxxxxxxxx

Inside the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Qin Yu was still calmly training. Qin Yu had already trained for close to two hundred years now. Even little Niu Wa had cultivated and trained all the way up to the level four Heavenly Immortal level now. However, Qin Yu was still training.

Inside the third layer of the his soul's Earthly Soul Realm.

Qin Yu was able to execute thirty five Hand Seals at a single stretch now. Every time he tried to execute all thirty six Hand Seals at a single stretch, he would always fail them. However, Qin Yu continued to persevere and train.

Finally, Qin Yu was able to execute all thirty six Hand Seals at a single stretch.

Qin Yu's soul's Earthly Soul Realm's space started to tremble. Qin Yu's awareness directly ascended from the Earthly Soul Realm into the first layer of the Heavenly Soul Realm.

Qin Yu's eyes were suddenly opened.

"I've succeeded." Qin Yu stood up from the green ground. He calculated in his heart and immediately knew the amount of time his training took. "It's been two hundred years, it's true that the further down the training, the longer it would be."

Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness was spread out from the Jiang Lan's Realm.

"Sure enough, Emperor Yu and them are still outside." Qin Yu had a cold smile and then stopped caring about those people.

"Your Majesty, it's Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness." All of the Immortal Emperors present sensed Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness. Immediately, they, including Emperor Yu, grew into a burst of restlessness. Afterwards, Qin Yu there was no longer any Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness spreading out.

As for the Mystic Emperor Xuan Xi, after the failure from last time, she had already left. She didn't have the time to waste here.

Within the Jiang Lan's Realm, the Elemental Spirit Energy once again started to fluctuate. A large amount of Elemental Spirit Energy was being absorbed by Qin Yu's body. It was as if Qin Yu was being surrounded by an invisible vortex.

Since his soul realm level had already reached Heavenly Soul Realm, Qin Yu naturally began to absorb a large amount of Elemental Spirit Energy and began to train. An amount of Elemental Spirit Energy so much that it was enough to cover the whole sky were rushing into Qin Yu's Black Hole. They were unceasingly being refined into pure essence.

A whole eighteen hours! After absorbing energies for eighteen hours, Qin Yu's Black Hole finally started to shudder. Qin Yu was also able to sense that... on the other side of the Black Hole Channel, that flour paste space, the energy within the two or three meters wide area that belonged to him started to fluctuate.

After a short period of time.

A Golden Ring of Light that was even bigger than the previous two Golden Rings of Light flew out from the other side of the Black Hole Channel. It flew past the one third distance, the two third distance and all the way to the end of the Black Hole Channel.

The Golden Ring of Light later assimilated with the Black Hole. Like a circular hoop, it binded the Black Hole.

Within the three Golden Rings of Light, golden Black Hole energy was being transmitted through unceasingly. In the process of the transmission, the energy was growing more and more pure. Even the Black Hole itself was absorbing those golden energies. The stability of the Black Hole was also increasing.

After a long period of time...

The three Golden Rings of Light all grew stable. However, they were very dazzling. On the surface of the Golden Rings of Light were even streams of energy moving about. The current power of the Black Hole was certainly ten times stronger than before.

Qin Yu opened his eyes; he had a smile on his face. "I have finally reached the late stage Black Hole Realm."

Sensing the condensed Black Hole energy within his body, the two hundred years of transformation and his even more valiant body, Qin Yu knew that... his current strength was close to that of a level two or three Immortal Emperor.

He flipped his hand and took out the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas.

The extremely condensed Black Hole energy rushed into the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas. The hurdle that he was unable to open no matter what had been brazenly opened. After a short period of time... the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas started to shine. It was indicating that Qin Yu had already successfully opened the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas.

At the moment when Qin Yu opened the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, the Demon Emperors within the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas were all woken up.

"Paying our respect to the master." The four great Demon Emperors within it immediately said respectfully.

However, Qin Yu's Immortal Awareness did not pay attention to these four great Demon Emperors. Instead, his Immortal Awareness was completely gathered on the other three Demon Emperors.

Chapter 68 – Three Great Demon Emperors

The third layer space of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas was nearly boundless. As the master of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, Qin Yu naturally immediately knew about all of the information regarding the entire third layer space of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas. There are a total of seven Demon Emperors in the third layer space of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas.

"It's actually these three people!" Qin Yu was immensely shocked.

At the moment when he opened the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, the four Demon Emperors who addressed him as 'master' respectfully weren't that powerful. The weakest one amongst them was a level one Demon Emperor. The strongest was also merely a level five Demon Emperor.

These four Demon Emperors would not bring about much assistance to Qin Yu. The true attraction were the other three great Demon Emperors.

These three Demon Emperors were very powerful.

They were so powerful that even Qin Yu's heart trembled.

Two level seven Demon Emperors and a level eight Demon Emperor!

"Long time no see." A heart connected voice transmission sounded in Qin Yu's mind. Qin Yu's attention was focused on that man who had greeted him — a black and thin man that appeared like an youngster.

However, his skin was covered in an indescribable radiance. His gaze was also very deep and profound.

"Mister Wu Lan." Qin Yu was both pleasantly surprised and shocked.

Back in the Ni Yang's Realm, the person who determines who enter the ninth floor of the Ninth Heaven, Wu Lan, was actually one of the great Demon Emperor in the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas. Toward this old acquaintance, Qin Yu also possessed a favorable impression.

With a movement of Qin Yu's thought.

The seven Demon Emperors of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas all appeared on the grounds of the Jiang Lan's Realm. Although these seven Demon Emperors were powerful, so much that there are some that's a lot more powerful than Qin Yu, but Qin Yu was the master of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas.

[TL: I felt like IET skipped a line. There should be something like: thus, Qin Yu naturally was able to transport them out of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas.]

Seven people.

"This subordinate is called Ming Zheng, paying respect to the master." A tall and robust man said respectfully. This tall and robust man was the weakest amongst the seven. He was only a level one Demon Emperor.

"This subordinate is called Dong Xue, paying respect to the master." Said a beautiful white clothed woman respectfully. This woman was the only female amongst the seven. Her strength was at the level of level four Demon Emperor.

"This subordinate is called Ding Jiao, paying respect to the master." This was a level three Demon Emperor middle aged looking man.

"This subordinate is called Yun Ming, paying respect to the master." This was the strongest of the four, a level five Demon Emperor.

These four Demon Emperors were all Divine Beasts. Amongst them, only Yun Ming was a high level Divine Beast. The other three were all mid level and low level Divine Beasts... as for the other three great Demon Emperors, Qin Yu was instead unable to determine what they are.

"You four can go rest aside for now." Said Qin Yu indifferently.

"Yes, master." Said the four very respectfully.

It was evident that these four great Demon Emperors also knew of their own standings. Obediently, they stepped aside. It's just that these four Demon Emperors have never approached the other three Demon Emperors.

The other three Great Emperors, one of them was the black and thin Wu Lan. To the side of him was an extremely tall and sturdy burly man. There's also a tall and thin, cold and proud man on the side who didn't even bother to glance at Qin Yu.

"Haha, never had I expected this. Merely how many years has it been? That youngster who wore the Black Profound Ring and only had the strength at the Dacheng stage actually has already reached Emperor Realm level." Said the extremely tall and sturdy burly man while laughing loudly.

This burly man's two tiger eyes were like bursting lightnings, filled with aggressiveness.

"You are... that pass guard?" Qin Yu immediately recalled the memories of that time. Back in the Ni Yang's Realm, numerous people wanted to pass through the Blue Cloud Road; the burly man that guarded that road was precisely this burly man in front of Qin Yu.

"That's right, it is I." Said the tall and sturdy burly man proudly. "Let me introduce myself, I am called Ye Qu... Mn, my original body should also be considered as a Demon Beast."

Qin Yu was stunned.

What does he mean by 'should also be considered' ?

Wu Lan who was at the side smiled and said. "Qin Yu, Ye Qu is full of brawns and crude, it's better for I to explain. Ye Qu's original body was a type of legendary Divine Beast, the Tyrannosaurus rex."

"Tyrannosaurus rex?" Qin Yu searched through all the information he have in his brain and was unable to find any Divine Beast called Tyrannosaurus rex.

"Mister Wu Lan, I do not believe there's any dragon within the dragon clan called the Tyrannosaurus rex. Could it be that... Tyrannosaurus rex is a kind of variation Divine Beast?" Puzzled, Qin Yu said. He was unable to think of another kind of explanation.

[TL: T-rex in chinese is called literally Overlord Dragon. Hence why Qin Yu thinks dude's a dragon clan.]

Wu Lan shook his head and laughed.

Ye Qu's tiger eyes opened wide; he said. "Youngster Qin Yu, my Tyrannosaurus rex clan is incomparably large and powerful. The amount of clansmen within my clan were never less than ten thousand. How could I be a variation Divine Beast?"

"Ten thousand?"

Qin Yu was shocked, with such a large number, this type of Divine Beast ought to be a famous one, how was it possible that he didn't know about it? "Ye Qu, why is it that I have never heard of it before?"

"That's because your knowledge and experience are lacking." Said Ye Qu complacently.

"Ye Qu, stop teasing Qin Yu." Wu Lan smiled indifferently and said. Hearing what Wu Lan said, Ye Je mumbled to himself and then stopped saying anymore.

Wu Lan looked toward Qin Yu and explained. "Qin Yu, you do not know about the Tyrannosaurus rex clan because... the Tyrannosaurus rex clan was not a life form of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm's space."

"Not a life form of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm?" Qin Yu was astonished.

"That's right." Wu Lan nodded. "Before we talk about this, I must let your understand a thing. This boundless universe actually has a lot of different spaces. Some spaces are ranked high, some spaces are ranked low and then there's spaces of the same rank; they are classified as parallel spaces. Do you understand this?"

Qin Yu naturally understand it.

Lei Wei's hometown was a cosmic space filled with science and technology. It was equal level and classified as a parallel space with the space that his own hometown, the Qianlong Continent, was is.

The cultivators in both of these spaces, after they reach a certain level, would both ascend toward a space that's ranked higher.

Wu Lan started smiling. "The space ranks are determined by their interior energy and stability. For example the Mortal Realm, there was more than merely the space that your hometown was in, there's also other spaces that are classified as Mortal Realm. Likewise, there are also many other spaces of the same rank as the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. The space that the Tyrannosaurus rex clan is located in is precisely one of them."

Qin Yu completely understood it.

Ye Qu's hometown was a space that's the same rank as the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.

"A living creature from another Cosmic Space?" Qin Yu found it unbelievable that a living creature from another space would actually appear in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. It was the first time for him to hear such a thing.

Hearing till this part, Ye Qu grew a bit sad.

Evidently, for him to leave his clan and his hometown, Yu Ju felt a bit pained about it.

"Youngster Qin Yu, although my hometown's space was the same rank as the space here, but own overall strength should be many times stronger than yours." Ye Qu said confidently. "The Divine Beasts here were separated into Low Level Divine Beast, Mid Level Divine Beast, Top Level Divine Beast and Super Divine Beast. However, for us... there wasn't that much differences."

Wu Lan explained from the side. "In their space, they were mostly divided into two major clans. One was the Dinosaur Clan and the other was the Human Clan. The Dinosaur Clan was further subdivided into the Tyrannosaurus rex, Flying Dragon... and all kinds of other varieties. As for the humans, they were about the same as those from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm."

Qin Yu completely understand everything.

That space appeared to be a lot less complicated than his own space.

"Our dinosaur clan needed to only train our bodies. Once our dinosaur bodies were trained to the extreme, humph humph... we would directly take on the Divine Tribulation with our bodies and ascend into the Divine Realm." Ye Qu appeared to be very proud of his clan's training method.

Wu Lan nodded and said. "The training technique of the Dragon Clan was truly outstanding."

"Idiots that only know how to fight close ranged." An ice cold voice sounded from not far away.

Qin Yu was unable to refrain himself from turning his head to look. The person who spoke was precisely that tall, skinny and cold looking man. That cold looking man still didn't bother to look at Qin Yu.

"Close combat is the way for the strongest attack power; how could magic and energy attacks possibly kill people in a single move like close combat?" Retorted Ye Qu to that cold looking man.

That cold looking man merely gave a cold humph and didn't speak anymore. However, he still didn't bother to even look toward the direction of Qin Yu.

Wu Lan smiled and said. "Wuxu, you need not deny the attack method of the dinosaur clan. The Tyrannosaurus rex's aptitude is equivalent to those of a Top Level Divine Beast; however, their dinosaur clan's training method is extremely suited for them. Although Ye Qu was at the level seven Demon Emperor Realm, but in battles... he is not much weaker than that Emperor Yu outside."

Qin Yu's eyes shined.

Ye Qu, a level seven Demon Emperor, have strength that approached Emperor Yu's? It would appear that the dinosaur body of the Tyrannosaurus rex was extremely valiant.

"Mister Wu Lan, what did you call him earlier?" Qin Yu was suddenly woken up.

He definitely heard that Wu Lan called that cold looking man 'Wuxu'!

Is he Ao Wuming's big brother, Ao Wuxu?

"Qin Yu, let me introduce him to you. He is Ao Wuxu, his original body was the unprecedented variation Super Divine Beast of the Dragon Clan, Blood Dragon. Not long ago, his power had reached the level of level eight Demon Emperor."

There were admiration in Wu Lan's eyes.

Qin Yu was shocked to the brim.

A level eight Demon Emperor Super Divine Beast?

Qin Yu still remembers that the level seven Demon Emperor, Ao Wuming, in his Battle Mode Human Form, was able to easily defeat both Zhi Bai and Xue Yileng. In his Battle Mode Human Form, he was able to fight against Emperor Yu.

As for the level eight Demon Emperor level Super Divine Beast, that would be truly frightening. His Battle Mode Human Form would definitely surpass Emperor Yu and not just by two or three times!

"Mister Wu Lan, I have a question." Qin Yu found a problem. Ye Qu and Wu Lan were both level seven Demon Emperors and Ao Wuxu was even a level eight Demon Emperor, how is it possible for them to be caught by Immortal Emperor Ni Yang and sent into the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas?

Wu Lan smiled indifferently. "I know, you wanted to ask about how we became spiritual beasts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas right?"

"Yes, that's right." Qin Yu looked toward Wu Lan.

Amongst these three, Qin Yu have the best impression toward this Wu Lan.

Wu Lan smiled and said. "Then let me tell carefully tell you all about it... when Wuxu was still young, he had left the Dragon Clan and even refused to pay attention to the orders of the Dragon Emperor. Do you know about this?"

Qin Yu also heard about the grudges that Ao Wuxu have toward the Dragon Clan. It was likely that the source of this grudge was because Ao Wuxu was mistakenly deemed to be a 'Red Dragon' when he was a child.

Qin Yu nodded to show that he knew about it.

"Wuxu lived for battles." Wu Lan gasped in admiration and said. "When he was young, Wuxu left the Dragon Clan and started to wander around the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. He had challenged countless amounts of experts and his power grew stronger and stronger. However, he had never once returned back to the Dragon Clan."

"During that time, Wuxu reached the level of leven seven Demon Emperor and met Ni Yang who was at the time at the pinnacle of his life. The Ni Yang from that time was a level eight Immortal Emperor Sword Immortal." Wu Lan had a slight smile on his face. "Wuxu challenged Ni Yang and the two had established a bet."

At this moment, the cold and grim Ao Wuxu also walked over.

Ao Wuming gave voice and said. "Ni Yang and I had established a bet, if I were to lose, then I'll become his spiritual beast. If I were to win, then his Divine Armor was to be mine. As for the results... I lost."

Level seven Super Divine Beast against a level eight Immortal Emperor level Sword Immortal, their strengths were about the same and either one of them could possibly win.

"Wuxu is a very stubborn person." Wu Lan said while smiling. "Afterwards when the Dragon Emperor found out about this matter, he directly step in to ask Ni Yang to reme his son's soul binding."

"Qin Yu, the Dragon Emperor's strength was very powerful, extremely powerful. At that time, Immortal Emperor Ni Yang surrendered..." Wu Lan started to laugh. "Did you know what kind of response that Wuxu gave?"

Qin Yu was naturally able to guess it.

If Ao Wuxu were willing to leave back then, then he would not still be in the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas now.

"I have no relationship with the Dragon Clan, why must I accept his benevolence? Furthermore... I also have no expectation toward the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm; there was too few people that's worthy for me to challenge them." Said Ao Wuxu indifferently.

Qin Yu was able to clearly sense how large the estrangement Ao Wuxu has with the Dragon Clan.

"What's more, the most important thing... is that since I agreed to bet, I must accept my loss. Since I lost, I naturally cannot go back on the deal." Ao Wuxu added.

Qin Yu came to a judgement about Ao Wuxu in his heart.

He's very stubborn and was certainly the type of person that is amenable to coaxing but not coercion.

"Mister Wu Lan, I am very confused... that Ni Yang from that time, with the protection of you all, why did he still fought with Emperor Yu and the Mystic Emperor to such an extent so much that he even died?" Puzzled Qin Yu.

With these three with Immortal Emperor Ni Yang, how could they possibly fear Emperor Yu and the Mystic Emperor?

Hearing this question, Wu Lan laughed.

Ye Qu also laughed. Even Ao Wuxu have an expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Youngster Qin Yu." Ao Wuxu stared at Qin Yu." I do not like to be threatened by others. I would only help others do a single task should I owe them a favor. Otherwise... even if you were to kill me, I would still not help you."

Qin Yu was dumbfounded.

Wu Lan explained. "Qin Yu, Ao Wuxu is extremely stubborn. At that time, the promise that he had with Immortal Emperor Ni Yang stated that only during the times of life and death crisis would he come out to protect Immortal Emperor Ni Yang's life. In other times... Ni Yang only had a single opportunity to order Ao Wuxu. As an exchange, at the moment when Ni Yang ascend to the Divine Realm, he must remove Ao Wuxu's soul binding and return his freedom."

Hearing the promise between Immortal Emperor Ni Yang and Ao Wuxu, Qin Yu was unable to refrain from being startled.

Wu Lan smiled and said. "The Ni Yang from that time could only agree to the promise. If he were to agree to the promise, he would still have one opportunity to command Ao Wuxu, an opportunity to make Ao Wuxu do something for him. At the same time, when he's in mortal danger, he can also get help from Ao Wuxu. If he were not agree, the only thing he can do is to kill Ao Wuxu and that would not benefit him in the slightest."

Qin Yu completely understood.

Ao Wuxu would rather die than submit.

"Big brother Wu Lan, enough about Wuxu. At the very least Wuxu agreed to listen to one of Ni Yang's command. What about you? You refused to listen to even a single command and only agreed to save his life in times of crisis." Said Ye Qu while laughing on the side.

Ao Wuxu also looked toward Wu Lan. The meaning in his sight was clear to everyone present.

Chapter 69 – Wu Lan's Promise

Qin Yu completely understood.

"That pitiful Ni Yang." Qin Yu had a sigh in his heart. It was evident that these three great experts do not hear and obey Ni Yang at all. Experts have the arrogance of experts, these three would rather die than submit.

From the way it sounded, Ao Wuxu was still not bad.

He promised Ni Yang two demands; he'll protect Ni Yang during the moment of life and death and would also listen to a single command from him.

Wu Lan was even worse, he actually won't even listen to a single command and had only promised to protect Ni Yang when he's in danger.

"Youngster Qin Yu." Ao Wuxu suddenly looked toward Qin Yu. "Although you have became the master of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, but your strength is much weaker than my own. I have originally intended to not listen to even a single one of your commands, however, giving face to big brother Wu Lan, I would listen to a single command from you."

This extremely arrogant sentence shocked Qin Yu.

"Had it not been Ni Yang, how could you possibly be able to command me?" Ao Wuxu looked down upon Qin Yu. "I would only protect you during the moment of life and death. In other times, you only have a single opportunity to command me. When you ascended to the Divine Realm, you are to return my freedom. If you were to refuse that, then you might as well kill me."

From start to finish, this Ao Wuxu's facial expression did not even change.

Qin Yu lightly smiled. "Ao Wuxu, Ao Wuming is my brother and I also respect you. Good, I accept your demands."

"Wuming is your brother?" Ao Wuxu's expression slightly changed as he looked toward Qin Yu.

Qin Yu nodded.

Ao Wuxu who was originally indifferent toward everything actually smiled lightly. "Wuming, how is he?"

"Big brother Wuming is doing well. He has been traveling the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm with sister-in-law Lian Zhu." Qin Yu replied. Ao Wuxu heard this and nodded. He took a deep breath and then walked far away and no longer bothered conversing with Qin Yu.

Qin Yu looked at Ao Wuxu's back.

"This Ao Wuxu has an estrangement with both the Dragon Emperor and the Dragon Clan but it seemed like his relationship with his own brother was actually pretty good." Qin Yu was able to sense the different kind of bearing Ao Wuxu had toward Ao Wuming.

Qin Yu didn't know at all that during the time when Ao Wuxu was a child, there was only Ao Wuming, his own brother, that didn't discriminate against him in the slightest.

Ye Qu and Wu Lan's manners toward Qin Yu was instead a lot better.

"Qin Yu, you possessed both talent and luck, with your cultivation speed, I reckon that it would not take a long time for you to ascend to the Divine Realm." Said Wu Lan while smiling. "Merely, you must certainly be very strict to yourself. If you were to rely on others, then your own progress would certainly become very slow. Do you understand that?"

Qin Yu nodded.

Cultivators, their path was filled with dangers. If one were to rely on others all the time, how could they possibly achieve great success?

Wu Lan nodded and then consoled Qin Yu. "It's good that you understand that. To be honest, I have never really took that Ni Yang into consideration. With his temperament, passing the Divine Tribulation? Humph, there's was a fifty percent chance that he'll fail." Wu Lan seemed to not care about Immortal Emperor Ni Yang at all.

Ye Qu who stood to the side said confused. "Big brother Wu Lan, I remember that back then, it seemed like you didn't even want to talk with Ni Yang and didn't listen to his orders at all. Only when Ni Yang was dying and requested your help did you finally help him. Why is it that you're this good to this youngster Qin Yu?"

Ye Qu sized Qin Yu from head to toe with his two tiger eyes. "I also cannot sense what's so extraordinary about this youngster Qin Yu, his strength was even weaker than Ni Yang. Why is it that you're so good to him?"

At this moment, Ao Wuxu who was far away also looked toward their direction.

Clearly, he was also puzzled about this.

Wu Lan lightly laughed and looked toward Qin Yu. "That's because I am confident of Qin Yu. To be more exact... I am confident of that Uncle Lan."

"Uncle Lan?" Qin Yu was stunned. "Mister Wu Lan, you know Uncle Lan?"

Wu Lan smiled as he shook his head. "No, I don't know him at all. However, when we were in the Ni Yang's Realm, I have seen a puppet. I asked you who refined that and you told me it was Uncle Lan, isn't that right?"

"Yes, that's right."

Qin Yu still remembered the things in the Ni Yang's Realm.

At that time, Wu Lan was actually able to immediately determine that the Sword Immortal Puppet was not a real person and even asked who it was that refined it. It was as if after he knew about it, Wu Lan's manners toward Qin Yu had changed greatly.

"Big brother Wu Lan, who is that Uncle Lan?" Asked Ye Qu confused.

"You cannot ask, you cannot ask." Said Wu Lan mysteriously.

Qin Yu was able to determine that this Wu Lan ought to know a bit about Uncle Lan. Or perhaps... he determined some things about Uncle Lan from the Sword Immortal Puppet. Suddenly, Qin Yu remembered a matter —

Where did Wu Lan come from?

Qin Yu was completely unable to determine Wu Lan's original body nor do he know about his history.

Wu Lan immediately continued. "Ye Qu, your dinosaur true body is extremely powerful, like this... you are the same as Wuxu, continue to stay in the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, Qin Yu can command you once and during the time of life and death, you are to protect Qin Yu."

"Yes, big brother." Ye Qu appeared to obey Wu Lan's words. Wu Lan smiled and look toward Qin Yu. "Qin Yu, if Ye Qu were to always be by your side protecting you, then even if your power were to increase, you would not have the strength that's tempered from real combat and would not be able to completely display your powers."

Qin Yu immediately nodded in understanding.

He was able to absolutely understand this point, only through experiencing Emperor Yu and Xue Tianya trying to kill him in the Blue Snow Star did he manage to comprehend and create the 'Meteor Finger Technique' and the 'domain' technique that belonged to Emperor level experts.

"Qin Yu, Wuxu and Ye Qu's battle prowess was something that you're not clear about. It's better for I to tell you about it." Wu Lan's expression grew somewhat serious.

Qin Yu carefully listened.

A person's strength was most certainly not something that can be determined merely by his level.

Wu Lan said slowly. "Wuxu is currently a level eight Demon Emperor and his original body was also that of a Super Divine Beast, Blood Dragon; in his battle mode, there are only a couple people who can surpass him in the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm..."

"Which?" Qin Yu immediately asked.

Wu Lan smiled. "I have already not been in the Immortal, Devil and Demon world for so many years, I would only talk about the people that I know of. The Dragon Emperor from the Demon Realm's Dragon Clan, the Peng Demon Emperor and Emperor Ni from the Bird Clan."

[TL: debating about whether to keep it as Peng or change it to Roc...]

Qin Yu naturally knew about the Peng Demon Emperor

The latest clan in the Bird Clan was the Peng Clan. The Peng Demon Emperor was the Emperor of the Peng Clan and at the same time was also the the Emperor of the Bird Clan.

Emperor Ni. Although her strength was very formidable, Phoenixes are both from the heaven and earth and there is only a single Phoenix in the entire Bird Clan. Thus, how many people are there that actually listened to the commands from Emperor Ni? After all, the Peng Demon Emperor has the powerful Peng Clan behind him.

"From the Devil Realm... as far as I know, there wasn't anyone. Of course, it was also possible for there to be powerful hidden experts that I don't know about." Said Wu Lan while smiling.

Qin Yu nodded. On the surface, there are three big shots in the Demon Realm. However, who knows if there are any hidden experts.

"As for the Immortal Realm, Hidden Emperor's strength ought to be at about the same level as Wuxu. As for those that are stronger than Wuxu, there was only one person that I know from the Immortal Realm — Cyan Emperor." Said Wu Lan with absolute certainty.

Qin Yu was already prepared for that.

Cyan Emperor was most certainly stronger than his displayed strength.

"As for the Dark Star Realm, the Three Great Sovereigns would not be weaker than Wuxu..." Said Wu Lan tranquilly.

Qin Yu was startled.

The Three Great Sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm were truly terrifying. Back when he was on the Crescent Moon Bay, Cyan Emperor and them even said that the head of the Dark Star Realm's Three Great Sovereigns, the previous Gold Punishment Lord, was even their old big brother.

"Other than some hidden experts, the rest of the people, for example Emperor Yu, Mystic Emperor, Blood Devil Emperor and them, were definitely not a match for Wuxu." Said Wu Lan indifferently.

From Wu Lan's speech, Qin Yu knew of one point —

Wu Lan didn't know about the existence of granny Yin Hua.

"You ought to know about Wuxu's power right? Other than those couple experts from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, there are not many other people that can match him." Said Wu Lan while smiling. "As for Ye Qu, his strength is close to that of Emperor Yu's."

Qin Yu was able to have a clear hierarchy of the strength of Ao Wuxu and Ye Qu.

Only after knowing how strong they actually are would he be able to better use the sole command that he has of them.

"That's right, you have to be careful of Emperor Yu and Mystic Emperor joining hands." Said Wu Lan all of a sudden. "They are both level eight Immortal Emperors; however, once they join hands, not only would they be able to match a level nine Immortal Emperor, what's most important is that... their Divine Weapons could combine into one and turn into a High Level Divine Weapon. I reckon that even Wuxu would not be able to take that on."

As if he was recalling the memories from back then, it was evidently that Wu Lan knew about Emperor Yu and Mystic Emperor's attack power.

"I understand." Qin Yu nodded.

Although Emperor Yu and Mystic Emperor joining hands could not do anything to the Jiang Lan's Realm, but one still cannot belittle these two's attack power.

Ao Wuxu who stood afar suddenly gave voice.

"Youngster Qin Yu, where is this?" Only now did Ao Wuxu noticed that this place was different.

In the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, there was not a single planet with the vastness of land that Jiang Lan's Realm possessed.

A boundless amount of land, anyone would feel strange.

"Youngster Qin Yu, in the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, there are no place with such a vast land. For even my Demon Awareness to be unable to determine the boundary." Ao Wuxu said in astonishment.

A Level eight Demon Emperor's Demon Awareness was certainly able to cover an entire planet.

"The amount of Elemental Spirit Energy here is also excessively dense." Wu Lan was also surprised.

Qin Yu started to smile. "This is the inside of the Jiang Lan's Realm."

"Jiang Lan's Realm?" Wu Lan, Ye Qu and Ao Wuxu looked to Qin Yu.

Qin Yu nodded, as these three were also bounded by the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, Qin Yu decided to tell them. "Jiang Lan's Realm is a Divine Artifact that Uncle Lan refined. There is an extremely large space inside of this Artifact."

"Spatial Divine Artifact?' Wu Lan was filled with astonishment.

"Spatial Divine Artifact, why is it that I've never heard of that before?" Both Ye Qu and Wuxu grew puzzled.

"And this was also refined by that Uncle Lan?" Wu Lan immediately asked.

Qin Yu nodded.

Wu Lan took a deep breath as if to calm himself down from the shock. He then looked at Qi Yu with a profound look. "Qin Yu, this Uncle Lan of yours truly cared for you."

"Uncle Lan is indeed very good to me." Said Qin Yu as he sighed. He recalled the memories of the days in the Mortal Realm when he was together with Uncle Lan and Li'er.

Only after a long while did Qin Yu awoke from the memories. "Mister Wu Lan, there's also another matter that I haven't spoke yet. I believe that you all would probably understand it in the future; the time flow speed in the Jiang Lan's Realm is different from that of the outside world. Ten years in here is only a single year outside."

"Ten years in here is one year outside?" Ye Qu was astonished. Ao Wuxu also walked over, his face was filled with shock.

"Isn't that a bit too fantastic?" Said Ye Qu, he found it unbelievable.

Time is an theoretical existence. For the flow of time to be different in the two spaces, it was truly very fantastic.

"Mister Wu Lan, what's wrong?" Qin Yu looked toward Wu Lan in confusion.

At this moment —

Wu Lan's eyes were filled with shocked, his complexion had also grew a bit pale. He had an appearance as if he had just saw a ghost.

"Mister Wu Lan." Said Qin Yu once again.

"Big brother Wu Lan, what's wrong?" Ye Qu and Ao Wuxu also looked toward Wu Lan.

Only after the three of them calling out to him a couple more times did Wu Lan come back. Wu Lan took a couple breaths and allowed his expression to be a slightly more calm. However, there was still some astonishment in his eyes. "Qin Yu, are you telling the truth that the flow of time in the Jiang Lan's Realm is different from that of the outside?"

"That's right." Qin Yu nodded.

Wu Lan took a deep breath and then once again look at Qin Yu profoundly for a couple more times. He then gasped in admiration and said. "Qin Yu, I will also promise you that during the time of life and death, I would protect your life. Also, you would have a single chance to command me."

"Oh." Qin Yu smiled as he nodded.

Wu Lan didn't even give Ni Yang a chance to order him. For him to give Qin Yu a chance, Qin Yu was already very satisfied.

"Big brother Wu Lan."

"Big brother Wu Lan."

Ye Qu and Ao Wuxu both looked at Wu Lan in surprise.

Wu Lan continued to smile as he looked at Qin Yu. "Qin Yu, when you reach the Divine Realm, I do not care if you'll return my freedom, you can do as you please."

Ye Qu and Ao Wuxu grew even more surprised. Wu Lan actually didn't ask for the freedom when they reach the Divine Realm. From Ye Qu and Ao Wuxu's point of view, they were completely unable to understand this.

Wu Lan did not bother to explain, he merely smiled.

Qin Yu nodded. For others to be so nice to him, he too cannot be excessive. Qin Yu had already decided in his heart that if he were to be able to reach the Divine Realm, he would certainly return to Wu Lan his freedom.

"Qin Yu, when you leave the Jiang Lan's Realm, I hope that you'll allow us to continue training in the Jiang Lan's Realm. We are able to save ten times the time if we trained in here." Said Ao Wuxu suddenly.

Qin Yu smiled and instead asked. "Could this be considered as you seeking a favor from me?"

Ao Wuxu nodded cold and matter-of-factly. "Yes, I would most certainly not ask a favor for free, if you were to allow me to train in the Jiang Lan's Realm, I would give you another chance to command me."

Like this, Qin Yu would obtain two chances to order Ao Wuxu. Thus, he was naturally willing.

"Ao Wuxu, I would use the first chance right now." Said Qin Yu.

"Qin Yu, you'd best not waste the chance. Although you have two opportunities to command Ao Wuxu, but if you were to want Ao Wuxu seek a favor from you again in the future, it was a nearly impossible matter." Wu Lan reminded Qin Yu.

Qin Yu merely shook his head. "I know. Ao Wuxu, currently outside of here was Emperor Yu and his subordinates, about twenty Immortal Emperors. They also have a Sealing Element Refining Flames Array, I hope that you... teach him a profound lesson."

"The subordinates under Emperor Yu, twenty some Immortal Emperors, and a Sealing Element Refining Flames Array?" Ao Wuxu had a slight smile on his face. "It would be a bit hard to kill Emperor Yu. However, as for teaching him a lesson... I would make that lesson extremely profound, so profound that Emperor Yu would not be able to forget about it for his entire life."

Ao Wuxu looked toward Qin Yu. "Let me go out."

The master of the Jiang Lan's Realm was Qin Yu, thus no matter how strong Ao Wuxu was, he was still unable to leave it by himself.

Qin Yu nodded.

"Qin Yu, let me remind you." Ao Wuxu suddenly said in a low voice. "Big brother Wu Lan gave you a chance to command him, unless you're at the most important moment, it's best for you to not waste that chance." Ao Wuxu exclaimed softly. "I really don't understand... why is it that big brother Wu Lan is so nice to you?"

Qin Yu was unable to refrain himself from being startled.

"Enough about that, let me out. I'll teach Emperor Yu and his men a good lesson." Said Ao Wuxu indifferently.

Qin Yu stopped over thinking anymore. With an intention of his will, Ao Wuxu disappeared from the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Chapter 70 – Sweep Away

Seeing Ao Wuxu leaving the Jiang Lan's Realm, Qin Yu grew excited in anticipation.

What kind of situation would it be on the outside?

"Qin Yu, rest assured. With Wuxu's strength, it was very easy for him to take care of Emperor Yu and his subordinates." Said Wu Lan while smiling. He appeared to be certain of Ao Wuxu's victory. "Both the Blood Dragon and the Five Clawed Golden Dragon are Super Divine Beasts. For Five Clawed Golden Dragons, not only are their energy attacks very powerful, their body's defense was also extremely strong. As for the Blood Dragon, it's close range attacks have inherited the superiority that's specific to Divine Beasts. However, its energy attack is instead not good. Thus, it goes to a different extreme."

"Extreme?"

Qin Yu looked at Wu Lan, he really didn't know about the attack power of the Variant Divine Beast, Blood Dragon.

Wu Lan explained. "Five Clawed Golden Dragons are able to execute some attack techniques. As for the Blood Dragon, what it was best at was — Devouringattacks."

"Devouring attacks?" Qin Yu was startled.

Wu Lan nodded and said. "That's right. From the way I see it, this type of attack technique was even stronger than the attack techniques of Five Clawed Golden Dragon. The Blood Dragon was able to separate into multiple Blood Dragons. Once those Blood Dragons enter the body, it directly aims for and swallows the Nascent Soul."

Devour!

Just thinking about it was enough to astonish Qin Yu. The Blood Dragon was indeed worthy of the title, Variation Super Divine Beast.

"Mister Wu Lan, when he was competing with Immortal Emperor Ni Yang, why is it that he lost the battle?" Qin Yu started to become puzzled. If this type of attack was that powerful, then why did he get defeated?

Wu Lan smiled and said. "Although devouring attacks is powerful, but it is not an attack that can easily swallow anyone. For those that are a lot weaker than him, naturally he is able to swallow them easily. As for those experts who are the same level as him, it is a lot harder to swallow them."

Qin Yu came to an understanding.

"Against crowds, there's the swallow attack. Against a single person, there's close combat. The Blood Dragon could be considered as the most perfect Super Divine Beast that I have seen." Wu Lan gasped in admiration. "Of course, the other Super Divine Beasts were also pretty good as they possessed their respective traits."

"Ao Wuxu finally attacked." Qin Yu who had been paying attention to the outside the whole time finally discovered that the battle had started.

"He only started to attack now?" Wu Lan was a little startled. He had already been conversing with Qin Yu for a while now but they had only started to fight on the outside.

In actuality, one of the reason was because of the fact that the Jiang Lan's Realm's time flow is ten to one compared to the outside world. And there was another reason, that is — Ao Wuxu was putting on airs.

"Youngster Qin Yu. Quickly, let our Demon Awareness spread out of this Jiang Lan's Realm so that we can have a clear look at the battle outside." Said Ye Qu hurriedly. It was impossible for his Demon Awareness to spread out of the Jiang Lan's Realm when he's in it.

With an intention of his will, Qin Yu allowed Ye Qu and Wu Lan's Devil Awareness to escape from the Jiang Lan's Realm.

The location where the Reef Yellow Star used to be had already turned into a boundless empty outer space.

The gigantic Sealing Element Refining Flames Array had been maintained the whole time. Afterall, no one knew whether Qin Yu would suddenly come out and escape from the Sealing Element Refining Flames Array. If he were to escape, then all the efforts would be for naught.

Surrounding the green speck were twelve Immortal Emperors including Emperor Yu.

Emperor Yu and them were all sitting cross-legged around the surroundings of the green speck.

Twenty years!

Emperor Yu and them had guarded the surrounding for an entire twenty years. In this twenty years, Emperor Yu had tried everything. He had his subordinates join hands and attack and even got the Mystic Immortal to come and join hands with him and attack the green speck together. However, without exception, Emperor Yu failed in all his attempts.

Unable to break through!

Although Emperor Yu appeared to be undisturbed as he sat cross-legged in the space, he was actually thinking of ways to break open the green speck.

"What to do? I really don't know how that Immortal Emperor Ni Yang managed to comprehend this before his death. He actually managed to comprehend and create such a dreadful defensive barrier that even I and Xi'er cannot break open after we joined hands." At this moment, Emperor Yu still thought that the green speck was Qingyu Immortal Mansion.

One cannot blame Emperor Yu. Afterall, he had never heard about there being such a thing like a Spatial Divine Artifact.

Suddenly, Emperor Yu looked toward his left.

In the empty space several hundred meters to the left of all the Immortal Emperors, a grave and stern man suddenly and surprisingly appeared.

"Who are you?" Emperor Yu immediately stood up.

Ao Wuxu looked at Emperor Yu but did not utter a word.

Besides Emperor Yu were eleven Immortal Emperors. These eleven Immortal Emperors all stood up next to Emperor Yu. Including Emperor Yu, all these people had a very serious expression. They have all felt the pressure!

That was the oppressive feeling that comes naturally with a frightening strength!

"When did the Demon Realm have a new level eight Demon Emperor?" Emperor Yu was greatly shocked. He was a level eight Immortal Emperor, although he was unable to see through this new arrival, he was able to barely sense the Demon Aura that was specific to those from the Demon Realm.

"Friend from the Demon Realm, I am Emperor Yu, I am not aware of who you might be..." Right when Emperor Yu only said half of what he wanted to say, he was interrupted by Ao Wuxu.

"Emperor Yu, it's been a long time, you actually don't even recognize me anymore. Haha..." Ao Wuxu started to laugh loudly. However, it was as if the entire space had frozen, his laugh brought about only intense nervousness to those Immortal Emperors.

Emperor Yu shrink his eyes. At this moment, the eleven Immortal Emperors beside him were prepared to attack at any moment.

"Are you ready?"

Suddenly, two rays of red shined in Ao Wuxu's eyes!

"Roar~~" Suddenly, an extremely reverberating dragon roar resounded in the boundless space. Ao Wuxu's figure had completely disappeared and a gigantic crimson dragon that was over a thousand miles long had suddenly appeared covering the sky. Those crimson colored dragon scales were radiating a demonic brilliance.

The malevolent dragon head was staring at Emperor Yu and them.

Emperor Yu and the eleven Immortal Emperors were shocked stunned.

"It's the Blood Dragon, Ao Wuxu." Emperor Yu woke back up.

However, right at this moment, the thousand miles long Blood Dragon suddenly started to move. It immediately turned into a crimson colored phantom. Emperor Yu and his subordinates were only able to see an enormous dragon mouth coming toward them to swallow them.

[TL: I decided to keep it as miles because 'li' is a chinese mile. A Chinese mile is equal to American mile or km. I just felt that it is more true to the story to use one thousand miles as opposed to 500km.]

Devour!

All of a sudden, Emperor Yu and the eleven Immortal Emperors felt that they have entered a crimson colored world.

"Break!" The Great Emperor's Sword in Emperor Yu's hand gave off a boundless amount of golden light.

In a flash, the Blood Dragon had flew back to where it was previously.

As for Emperor Yu and them, they were also still at their original location. It's just that at this moment... including Emperor Yu, there was only four Immortal Emperors who were still alive. Green Blooded Sword Emperor Zhi Bai, Yellow Gowned Immortal Emperor Mu Yan and a level six Immortal Emperor.

The Blood Dragon had swallowed eight great Immortal Emperors at once.

The thousand miles long dragon's enormous dragon head was suddenly raised and looked toward the Sealing Element Refining Flames Array's net of light. The enormous dragon body once again immediately turned into a crimson colored phantom. It ruthlessly knocked against the net of light.

The Sealing Element Refining Flames Array that the sixteen Immortal Emperors set up; even the strongest one amongst these sixteen, Immortal Emperor Yu Fan, was merely a level six Immortal Emperor. Although this Sealing Element Refining Flames Array's defense was very strong, but it was still able to be broken by the attack of a level seven Immortal Emperor.

"Bang!"

A level eight Demon Emperor Super Divine Beast. The fierce strike from its true body.

Emperor Yu was completely shocked.

That's right, he wanted to kill the sixteen Immortal Emperors! Emperor Yu woke up to reality.

"Stop him!" Emperor Yu suddenly shouted. At the same time, he sent voice transmissions to those sixteen Immortal Emperors. "Yu Fan, you all, quickly run away." Like lightning, Emperor Yu's voice transmission resounded in the sixteen Immortal Emperor's minds.

The sixteen Immortal Emperors were already shocked the moment when the thousand mile long Blood Dragon appeared. It's just that as Emperor Yu was still alive, how could they possibly dare to run away?

At this moment, they wanted to run after hearing Emperor Yu's command. However... it's too late. The breaking of the Sealing Element Refining Flames Array had caused the entire space to fluctuate. It was simply impossible for the sixteen Immortal Emperors to teleport.

With a dragon roar!

That thousand miles long Blood Dragon actually divided in a split second. The thousand miles long Blood Dragon had turned into sixteen Blood Dragons all of a sudden. In a flash, these sixteen dragons had already bound up the sixteen Immortal Emperors.

This was precisely what Wu Lan had mentioned to Qin Yu about. The characteristic specific to the Blood Dragon, dividing into multiple Blood Dragons to carry out group Devour attacks.

This was not a Body Clone Technique.

The sixteen Blood Dragons, each and every one of them has the strength of around a third of Ao Wuxu's. They were merely a bit weaker than a level eight Immortal Emperor. After a shout of screams, the sixteen Immortal Emperors disappeared.

"Roar~~~" Another dragon roar sounded.

The sixteen Blood Dragons suddenly started to rush toward Emperor Yu and the other three. At the same time, they merged together and returned to a thousand miles long Blood Dragon. While rushing over, that thousand miles long Blood Dragon unexpectedly disappeared into thin air.

A person appeared.

Covered in a layer of crimson colored dragon scales, his long hair had turned crimson colored, there were even two dragon horns growing on his head. That pair of ice-cold, crystal-like eyes were staring at Emperor Yu.

It's the Ao Wuxu in his Battle Mode Human Form!

The Ao Wuxu with the strongest attack power!

Emperor Yu, Green Blooded Sword Immortal Zhi Bai, Yellow Gowned Immortal Emperor Mu Yan and that level six Immortal Emperor were all filled with anger and fear.

"You are Ao Wuxu." Emperor Yu's whole body was shivering.

"That's right." Said Ao Wuxu as he looked at Emperor Yu coldly. "Emperor Yu, the me from back then was unable to prevail over you and could only draw a tie. However, the currently i have already reached level eight Immortal Emperor, today's conclusion would only be — me trampling on you."

In merely a brief of a moment, twenty four Immortal Emperors had died.

"Qin Yu managed to open the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas?" Said Emperor Yu. His voice was cold.

At the moment when he saw Ao Wuxu, Emperor Yu already knew that Qin Yu must've opened the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas. Afterall, Ao Wuxu was a Spiritual Beast of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas back then. This matter was something that high level people of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm knew of.

"That's right." Ao Wuxu looked at Emperor Yu coldly.

"Run away." At almost the exact same moment, Emperor Yu sent voice transmissions to his subordinates.

A level eight Demon Emperor Super Divine Beast, even Emperor Yu was no match for him. Back then, the level seven Demon Emperor level Ao Wuxu was already at the level of Emperor Yu. The current Ao Wuxu was even more frightening than that.

The four great Immortal Emperors moved out at almost the same time.

"Die!"

An ice cold voice echoed. Ao Wuxu had turned into a crimson ray of light. All of a sudden, that crimson ray of light turned into four. The four crimson rays of light simultaneously charged toward Emperor Yu and the other three, causing the four of them to be unable to escape.

The level six Immortal Emperor died in battle.

Afterwards, the four crimson rays of light were once again turned into three crimson rays of light.

Battle!

Ao Wuxu's main body was holding a battle knife. This battle knife was extremely long, it was as tall as Ao Wuxu himself. However, Ao Wuxu was extremely fast when using it to attack and its attack power was also very astonishing.

Ao Wuxu's main body was attacking Emperor Yu. His two clones were attacking the Yellow Gowned Immortal Emperor and Green Blooded Sword Immortal.

...

The space was shaking. The frantic energies were spreading in all direction like storms. Emperor Yu, Green Blooded Sword Immortal and Yellow Gowned Immortal Emperor were all trying their hardest to escape.

In a mere ten breaths time.

Ao Wuxu's body appeared next to the green speck.

"What a pity. It's one thing to be unable to kill Emperor Yu because he possessed a Divine Armor. Never did I expect that the Yellow Gowned Immortal Emperor were also able to escape." Ao Wuxu sighed. "Sigh, to simultaneously control the attack of my two clones caused adversely affects on the main body's attacks. Otherwise, Emperor Yu would not have been able to escape so easily."

"Qin Yu, let me return."

Said Ao Wuxu via voice transmission. Soon after he disappeared into thin air.

At this moment, the boundless space energies were still shaking. However, other than some drifting blood in the cosmic space, there were nothing else that can show the trace of a battle.

On a desolate planet.

Two figures in a sorry state appeared on this planet.

Yellow Gowned Immortal Emperor Mu Yan was half kneeling on the ground. His complexion was deathly pale. Yellow Gowned Immortal Emperor Mu Yan, although his attack power was not as strong as the Green Blooded Sword Immortal, his defense was a lot stronger. It was precisely due to his defense that, although he was seriously wounded this time, he managed to survive.

As for the extremely famous 'Green Blooded Sword Immortal,' Zhi Bai, he had lost his life in this battle. While the Green Blooded Sword Immortal's attack was very strong, but his defense was inferior to that of the Yellow Gowned Immortal Emperor. Because of that, he had lost his life.

'Green Blooded Sword Immortal' Zhi Bai who had moved unhindered through the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm had fallen.

Emperor Yu's luxurious purple gown was stained with blood. His completely was also very pale. "Mu Yan, what's the loss this time around?"

As the subordinate who managed all the troops underneath Emperor Yu, Emperor Yu would usually ask Mu Yan about the statistical results after every battle.

Mu Yan stood up. His expression was extremely ugly. "Your Majesty, in this battle, we had lost twenty six Immortal Emperors."

"Twenty six." Just by hearing this number, Emperor Yu felt a major pain in his heart.

Mu Yan continued. "Your Majesty, the Reef Yellow Star was the planet with the greatest possibility of Qin Yu appearing amongst the three major planets; those sixteen Immortal Emperors stationed there were also those that are stronger. As for the other ten Immortal Emperors that had been gathered there to attack the speck of green, those ten Immortal Emperors were also the ten that were amongst the strongest."

Emperor Yu started to shiver in his heart.

It was precisely because those ten were powerful that he gathered them over to attack the speck of green.

These twenty six Immortal Emperors, they accounted for less than half of the subordinates under Emperor Yu, but they were the true elites underneath Emperor Yu. This battle... more than half of the elites underneath Emperor Yu were lost and his strength had dropped to less than half of its former strength!

"Even Zhi Bai died in battle, Your Majesty's war generals were almost completely wiped out. Those who reached above the level six Immortal Emperor level were only this subordinate and Your Majesty left." Said Mu Yan with an awfully downcast voice.

While it is true that Emperor Yu still have quite a bit of Immortal Emperors underneath him.

But none of those Immortal Emperors were above level six Immortal Emperor.

"Qin Yu, Ao Wuxu!" Emperor Yu's whole body were shivering. He took a deep breath. "Let's return."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Soon after, the two disappeared from the desolate planet.

...

Inside the Jiang Lan's Realm.

Seeing Ao Wuxu appearing before their eyes, Qin Yu, Ye Qu and Wu Lan all welcomed his return. Even the four other Demon Emperors were filled with excitement. They also knew about what had happened earlier.

Killing twenty six Immortal Emperors and all of them were Emperor Yu's elites. Amongst which there's even the Green Blooded Sword Immortal Zhi Bai.

"Wuxu, not bad." Said Wu Lan while smiling.

There were admiration in Qin Yu's eyes. "Wuxu, you killed twenty six in a single stretch, you even killed that Green Blooded Sword Immortal. There's also a couple level six Immortal Emperors including Immortal Emperor Yu Fan. Truly amazing."

Ao Wuxu still had a grave and stern expression. "It's nothing. I had said that Emperor Yu might be a bit hard to kill and thought that I would've been able to kill twenty seven of them this time. Never did I expected that one of them escaped." After saying those, Ao Wuxu even had a slight regretful expression on his face. It seemed as if he was very dissatisfied with his accomplishments.

Qin Yu, Ye Qu, Wu Lan and them were immediately dumbfounded.
