"NO! Why, why...?

" Everything that happened left Gu Meiyu,

who only had her immortal spirit left, in tears.
Wu Yu stood in front of her and said, "That’s because acting
arrogantly and provoking an unknown creature in the forest
could cost you your life!"
"What are you...." Gu Meiyu asked tragically.
Wu Yu reached out to grab her and threw her into his mouth
before answering, "A monster?"
Even he didn’t know the answer.
Regardless, he had devoured the delicacy. There was no way
he was going to let another delicacy off.
After which, he took a rest to digest Liu Yuanqing and Gu
Meiyu on the spot.
He reverted back into his human form.
Liu Yuanqing was a 7-Yuan heavenly immortal, so he could
replenish what Wu Yu had exhausted previously. In fact, he
could even bring Wu Yu to the level of a 6-Yuan heavenly
immortal.
Moreover, what Wu Yu had immolated previously was largely
the powers of ghostly immortals and demon immortals.
Therefore, after he started disintegrating and absorbing Liu
Yuanqing’s immortal energy and immortal body, it was hard to
find any traces of ghostly immortals or demon immortals
within Wu Yu.
If he morphed into his main body, others would only think that
he was a strange immortal beast with a ferocious look.
Unknowingly, Liu Yuanqing had helped Wu Yu.
Otherwise, if Wu Yu were mistaken as a demon immortal, it
would be rather troublesome.
He had also given Wu Yu an immortal treasure that Wu Yu was
comfortable with and could use for a period of time.
He was now growing very quickly, and no one could stop him.
The Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast was getting more and
more terrorizing.
Wu Yu benefited greatly while digesting the memories of Liu
Yuanqing.
The knowledge that Liu Yuanqing had wasn’t something that
the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor could compare with.
Evidently, he knew more about this world.
Including the 8,000 Sky Palaces and the immortals at the
Immortal Lord Realm, such as the Green Lotus Immortal King
and others.
When he obtained these memories, Wu Yu also understood a
rather frightening fact.
When Gu Meiyu was killed, Liu Yuanqing had sent out a
distress message to his father, General Qinghe. That was an
application of immortal techniques. Although he couldn’t
transmit much, he could roughly let General Qinghe know his
current position and that he was in danger!
Wu Yu could stop Immortal Message Talismans from getting
out, but he couldn’t guard against this.
Fortunately, he learned of this before General Qinghe arrived.
Wu Yu made a decision immediately and took the form of Liu
Yuanqing with Replicate. After this transformation and all the
memories he had digested, no one could possibly tell that he
was a fake from any aspect.
There was no way he would let the cat out of the bag.
Nonetheless, he had to remain vigilant when facing General
Qinghe, Liu Zheng!
General Qinghe was a well-respected general under the city
lord of Qingyuan City. He led the immortal army of Qingyuan
City and was an immortal in the Nine Xuan Dao Realm.
Moreover, he was a 5-Xuan immortal!
That was an opponent that Wu Yu had no chance against
regardless of how much he immolated. Once he was
discovered, he would definitely be dead. Without his main
body, he couldn’t escape with the Somersault Cloud.
He was quick to react, and just as he completed his Replicate,
a burly immortal in immortal armor stood right before him.
That immortal was domineering and took huge strides towards
Wu Yu once he showed up. His eyes were surveying the
environment before landing on Wu Yu. When he noticed that
Wu Yu wasn’t hurt in the slightest, he bellowed, "Speak! What
happened!?"
Wu Yu acted like how Liu Yuanqing would at other times and
answered anxiously, "Father.... There was a group of people
trying to get through on their warship moments ago. I was
bored and attacked them.... Uhm... in the end, they got off and
wanted to beat me up. They were all stronger than me, but I was
quick witted and told them about you. In the end, they were
scared away...."
"Scumbag! How did I get a fool like you as my child?!" As he
spoke, Liu Zheng swung his palm over. Having no chance to
avoid, Wu Yu took a solid slap on behalf of Liu Yuanqing.
After the slap, Liu Zheng said, "Follow me back. I’m going to
imprison you for a thousand years. Let’s see if you will learn
from your mistake!"
Wu Yu shuddered at the thought of it. If he was imprisoned for
a thousand years, everything would have changed. The Yan
Huang Ancient Emperor would have achieved his dreams.
Now was a moment he could only compete with wits.
He searched the memories in an attempt to find a solution.
"Don’t! Don’t imprison me. I agree to participate in the trial for
heavenly immortals at the place Uncle Liang is. I will make my
way there tomorrow. Let me prepare today. Please believe me
for once. I will definitely succeed! Please don’t lock me up!"
It was then that Liu Zheng’s anger dissipated. Wu Yu knew that
the trial for heavenly immortals would definitely be arduous.
Liu Yuanqing had always been unwilling to participate. Now
that he thought it through, Liu Zheng was pretty gratified.
"Shouldn’t you be rushing back to get prepared? I’m really
busy and have no time to clean up your messes every day!" Liu
Zheng stared daggers at him, turned around, and left in a jiffy.
Just like that, Wu Yu survived this strange ordeal.
"Immolate or Replicate are incredible abilities. We better leave
before the burly man gets back," The Full Moon of Nanshan
sighed.
Wu Yu morphed back into his original look swiftly, steered the
Divine Continent Warship, and got away from the region. He
flew towards the Well of Eternal Life and distanced himself
from the territory of Qingyuan City expeditiously. Having
learnt from this, he chose to advance through a deserted area
when he arrived in the proximity of another city. Therefore, he
didn’t encounter people like Liu Yuanqing again.
The Green Lotus Sky was peaceful and serene.
Wu Yu sat with his legs crossed in the Divine Continent
Warship while digesting the memories of Liu Yuanqing.
Now he had a better understanding of the 8,000 Sky Palaces.
He even learned that the Su Yu Sky Palace was above the Pu
Yuan Sky Palace, at the 271st level of heaven.
He also found out that the Green Lotus Immortal King that was
stationed in Green Lotus Sky was beyond the Immortal Lord
Realm. Instead, he was at the legendary Great Void Immortal
Realm!
Only those at the Great Void Immortal Realm had the rights to
be called Immortal Kings.
Those at the Immortal Lord Realm would only be addressed as
Immortal Lords.
Heavenly Immortal, Xuan Immortal, Immortal Lord, Immortal
King.
There were even some who were above the Great Void
Immortal Realm! Those were the levels of the true rulers of this
place.
It was said that that was the finish line in the path to eternal life.
As for the details, the 7-Yuan heavenly immortal wasn’t too
clear. This was because he had to complete the cultivation of
the Longevity Immortal Realm before reaching the Nine Xuan
Dao Realm. It was still uncertain how many paths of dao he
could eventually achieve. Therefore, it was impractical to know
more about the Immortal Lord Realm or even the Great Void
Immortal Realm.
Even reaching the Immortal Lord Realm was a dream that
trillions of immortals could never accomplish, let alone the
Great Void Immortal Realm.
Although Liu Zheng was a 5-Xuan immortal, he would
probably take several tens of thousands of years to complete an
additional path of dao. This was because the dao would get
more profound as one proceeded.

Wu Yu had the strength equivalent to a 6-Yuan heavenly

immortal currently. He could take the form of a 6-Yuan
heavenly immortal, so he definitely had the strength to enter the
Pu Yuan Sky Palace. The first 2,000 levels of heaven were the
territory of those at the Longevity Immortal Realm. Naturally,
as one advanced higher, one needed greater strength. For
example, to reach the Pu Yuan Sky Palace, which was nearing
the 300th level of heaven, one had to be a 2-Yuan heavenly
immortal or higher. A 1-Yuan heavenly immortal wouldn’t
survive.
With his current strength, Wu Yu could easily enter the Pu
Yuan Sky Palace.
He steered his Divine Continent Warship and crossed the
mountains and rivers of the Green Lotus Sky while traversing
through endless immortal fog.
The mountains and rivers in the sky palaces were different from
those in the mortal domain.
He saw countless immortals, and the majority of them had been
in the sky palaces for a very long time. Basically, they had
forgotten their lives as mortals.
Some had even forgot which realms they were from.
3,000 Greater Realms, 90,000 Lesser Realms.
Mortals procreated swiftly, but this wasn’t the case in the sky
palaces.
The majority of immortals died in battles rather than reaching
the end of their longevity.
Whether one was cultivating a Longevity Immortal Art or
trying to gain dao in the Nine Xuan Dao Realm, it required a
long time to find one’s own path amidst the large amount of
information.
It was typical for immortals to go into seclusion for thousands
of years at once. It was said that for the elite immortals, going
into seclusion for tens of thousands of years wasn’t atypical.
The concept of usage of time was completely different in the
mortal domain as compared to the heavenly domain. In the
mortal domain, one would perish after at most six hundred
years. This might be shorter than an immortal going into
seclusion once.
Therefore, Wu Yu had to get used to life in the sky palaces.
In the Green Lotus Sky, the closer to the central Well of Eternal
Life, the more prosperous the place would be.
One could see immortals and cities everywhere.
He had arrived in the central Green Lotus Sky Region from the
Green Spring Sky Region. This was naturally where most
immortals in the Green Lotus Sky gathered, as it was more
convenient to head to other palaces from here.
Basically, in every level of heaven, the central area was the
most congregated. Therefore, Wu Yu was no longer standing
out in this place, as there were plenty of other warships heading
towards the Well of Eternal Life.
Occasionally, Wu Yu would encounter people asking him
which level of heaven he was heading to and if he needed a
companion. Wu Yu had rejected all of their requests.
The Green Lotus Sky Region was exceptionally vast. This was
where the most important Green Lotus Immortal Palace was.
The Green Lotus Immortal King resided within, so no one
dared to approach. Wu Yu didn’t see it on his way here. When
he arrived in this place, he saw many Nine Xuan Dao Realm
immortals. These were all immortals with more than a million
years to live!
They were the core forces of the 8,000 Sky Palaces, and many
cities within were guarded by them. General Qinghe was a good
example.
Most city lords were said to be at the Immortal Lord Realm.
Wu Yu had not seen any Immortal Lord Realm immortals yet.
However, judging from the memories of Liu Yuanqing,
Immortal Lord Realm immortals were terrifying. It was said
that they could create a new autonomous realm within their
bodies, and they would be the owners of those realms. They
could mobilize the powers of that realm and even raise mortals
with those powers.
It was said that the 3,000 Greater Realms and 90,000 Lesser
Realms were developed from an immortal’s autonomous realm.
It was just that no one knew if an immortal that ancient still
existed.
For Wu Yu, this cultivation method was unbelievable. He
didn’t know if could develop a realm like this by devouring
one’s autonomous realm.
While pondering about the question, he spotted the Well of
Eternal Life!
Although it was called a well, it looked more like a colossal sky
pillar!
It was incomparably huge, and it connected the vast sky above
him to the Green Lotus Sky and to the sky palaces below.
The 8,000 Sky Palaces were connected in a column through the
sky pillar. Therefore, the Well of Eternal Life was also known
as the Pillar of Eternal Life!
Naturally, it was empty inside. Moreover, this was a name
given by an elite immortal. When that elite immortal stood at
the highest point and looked down, it was indeed a well rather
than a pillar.
Well of Eternal Life, Pillar of Eternal Life.
Enormous, magnificent, impressive - a miracle of the world.
One look and you would never forget it.
Wu Yu spent some time lost in wonder at the Well of Eternal
Life.
The Well of Eternal Life joined the 8,000 Sky Palaces up like
a skewer.
Therefore, it was no exaggeration to call this the most important
object in the entire Heavenly Domain.
Wu Yu and many other immortals were headed towards the
Well of Eternal Life. As he got closer and closer, his breath
grew more and more ragged.
Even when he reached the Palace of Eternal Life, which was at
the entrance to the Well of Eternal Life, he still could not stop
marveling.
The Well of Eternal Life looked like a wall to him.
Endless, without horizons.
The Palace of Eternal Life, put bluntly, was where the fee was
collected.
This was done in order to prevent heavenly immortals from
hogging up the Well of Eternal Life with misuse.
And also to provide the rulers, like the Green Lotus Immortal
King, with some immortal cultivation resources.
Everyone who wished to use the Well of Eternal Life would
have to fork out money!
And it was not cheap - 100 immortal recovery pills!
This was the price of some immortal treasures.
Therefore, not everyone could use the Well of Eternal Life to
go to other sky palaces as they wished.
Many immortals might stay in the sky palaces for tens of
thousands of years and only use the Well of Eternal Life once
or twice.
Luckily, Wu Yu had taken more than 1,000 immortal recovery
pills from Liu Yuanqing. It was enough for him to pass through
the Well of Eternal Life a few times.
Many of the immortals here at the Palace of Eternal Life were
like Wu Yu - passing through the Well of Eternal Life for the
first time.
They had no experience and were a little nervous.
After handing over the 100 immortal recovery pills, they would
line up.
The "flow" within the Well of Eternal Life was controlled by
elite immortals.
The 8,000 levels of heaven were all operated orderly and tidily.
Wu Yu had already set his destination as the Pu Yuan Sky.
After being in line for about four to six hours, Wu Yu saw that
one of the great doors to the Well of Eternal Life was right
before his eyes.
Actually, it was a small hole dug on the surface of the Well of
Eternal Life.
The immortals would jump in and vanish immediately. One
could vaguely see them either going up or down.
"Your turn. Go in quick, don’t waste my effort!"
At the door, a Nine Xuan Dao Realm immortal directed Wu
Yu.
Wu Yu waited for a long while.
"Pu Yuan Sky!"
Thinking of his destination, a wild look came to his eyes.
He would find the Ancient Emperor, take revenge, and win
back his body.
There was something important to note.
After devouring the memories of the Ancient Emperor, he
knew that the Ancient Emperor’s Immortal Art: Immortal
Fusing Body Seizing had not succeeded!
Because the Primordial Spirit of Wu Yu’s real body had not
been completely devoured.
Therefore, he had not completely succeeded.
Wu Yu’s real body still belonged to Wu Yu. It was connected
to his Heaven Devouring Avatar.
Wu Yu could even feel his real body with his current form. He
could feel them drawing closer and closer.
They had not been thoroughly severed, and so Wu Yu felt that
there was a good chance that he could win back his body
without needing to dispel the Immortal Art: Immortal Fusing
Body Seizing.
After all, what had not been done need not be undone.
And so Wu Yu planned to finish the battle quickly and close
things out while he was still finding his footing.
If he were allowed to find a place to enter seclusion, that would
be troublesome.
What Wu Yu was most worried about now was not confronting
the Ancient Emperor, but that the Ancient Emperor would hide
away and emerge in a few thousand years.
Therefore, he did not hesitate to enter the Well of Eternal Life
immediately!
Whoosh....
He was transported into another space.
It looked like a void.
He did not need to use any techniques, and he could already
float in midair.
All around him was an opaque fog, so he could not see clearly.
But he could feel that this was a world all around him.
He looked up. Eternity. He looked down. Eternity.
Of course, there should be more above him. After all, there
were more than 7,000 levels of heaven above.
It had been two breaths of time since Wu Yu had entered the
Well of Eternal Life.
"Begin ascent, to the Pu Yuan Sky!"
He began to rush upwards.
Suddenly, something incredible happened!
The entire Well of Eternal Life started to shudder!
Blam, blam, blam!
The intense shaking caused those inside, including Wu Yu, to
become very alarmed!
"What’s going on!?"
"I don’t know. Why is the Well of Eternal Life shaking?!"
"Impossible!"
The quarreling voices of other immortals reached him.
Weng, weng!
The shaking still persisted!
Wu Yu was afraid. It seemed like the entire Well of Eternal Life
itself was swaying. It made him nauseous and uncomfortable.
This was a test for him!
He did not know that everyone outside the Well of Eternal Life
was also shocked!
Outside, the Well of Eternal Life was actually swaying like a
noodle!
"What is happening!?"
"In billions of years, such a thing has never happened!"
All around, the immortals near the Well of Eternal Life were
alerted to the strange behavior of the Well of Eternal Life!
Everyone was looking at each other in fear and dismay.
"How could the Well of Eternal Life move...."
It was not just at the Green Lotus Sky!
All of the immortals could only see their own segments of the
Well of Eternal Life. What they did not know was that the entire
Well of Eternal Life was shaking, whether at the 1st level of
heaven or up in the thousands.
It shook a little less strongly towards the top.
But for those elite immortals, even this slight shaking was
considered a major event.
This was something that had never happened before in the
8,000 Sky Palaces.
Wu Yu, of course, did not know how the shaking of the 8,000
Sky Palaces would affect the entire domain.
All he could see was shaking in a very small area. It was very
intense; however, perhaps this was the most intense point.
......
Sky palace!
Swirling clouds and dense immortal qi!
The wind and clouds streamed everywhere.
Above, an endless galaxy, light filtering downwards.
In the mysterious depths, a golden-robed person was sitting in
the lotus position.
Suddenly, heaven and earth shook.
He started, and opened his eyes. There was an endless void in
his eyes.
"Impossible!"
A low cry that shook the cloud layers.
.......

It was finally over.

......
It persisted for maybe 10 breaths of time.
Wu Yu was still completely stupefied.
From the memories of Liu Yuanqing and the Yan Huang
Ancient Emperor, this behavior of the Well of Eternal Life
could not possibly have happened. It was something
monumental in the sky palaces.
And it had happened the first time he had entered the Well of
Eternal Life. Unlucky....
However, it did not affect him.
Within the Well of Eternal Life, all was silent, and not a single
sound was to be heard.
Wu Yu and the others were unfamiliar with each other, and
therefore no one spoke to him. He was in a rush, and now that
it was over, he immediately proceeded upwards swiftly.
He moved to the side of the Well of Eternal Life. Through the
thin well wall, he could vaguely see the world outside.
Here, one’s body moved up or down.
The world outside continued to descend, and the castles sank
beneath his feet, disappearing into the clouds below.
He continued to move upwards.
And then the clouds became ground again. Looking out, he saw
a vast sea, with many immortal beasts gamboling in it.
"This is the Boundless Sky!"
Wu Yu knew that he had moved up one level of heaven.
The Boundless Sky was very big, and suited for water-based
immortal beasts.
He continued moving up through the sky palaces, which
continued to bedazzle him.
There was great variety in the 8,000 Sky Palaces. For example,
one was called the Stellar Sky, which was suitable for those like
the Stellar Tribe in the Stellar Realm.
This time, he had to ascend about 200 levels of Heaven.
Wu Yu was counting. He knew what the Pu Yuan Sky looked
like and where his body had been last, when the Ancient
Emperor returned to the mortal domain.
He was headed there at full speed.
He had killed the Ancient Emperor’s real body, but the Ancient
Emperor would not expect him to come to the sky palaces so
quickly!
"Faster!"
Level after level passed.
Through the well wall, he could see huge sky palaces outside
that were boundless.
The 8,000 Sky Palaces were pyramid-shaped. The lower levels
were the largest, while the highest sky palaces were the
smallest. At the peak, the sky palace was indeed only a single
palace, the Jade Emperor’s Spirit of Heaven Jeweled Hall!
The Spirit of Heaven Jeweled Hall was the 8,000th level of
heaven, and also called the Spirit of Heaven Sky.
Wu Yu was currently near the bottom of the pyramid, which
was why the world looked so vast. The Green Lotus Sky was
boundless, and many immortals lived there.
"Ancient Emperor, you will not escape me."
Wu Yu had devoured the Ancient Emperor’s real body.
The thing was that the Ancient Emperor’s immortal spirit in
Wu Yu’s body did not even know that Wu Yu could devour
memories.
Therefore, he would not anticipate that Wu Yu knew his
location in the Pu Yuan Sky.
Wu Yu guessed that he was in no hurry to run. Besides, Wu Yu
knew roughly how strong his real body was now.
The Ancient Emperor was indeed talented in this aspect.
About three days had passed, and finally the number that Wu
Yu counted to himself reached 272, Pu Yuan Sky. He had
arrived.
A wild look in his eyes and a grim look on his face, he walked
out of the Well of Eternal Life into the world.
The Pu Yuan Sky did not look very different from the Green
Lotus Sky, albeit with denser immortal qi. Ordinary 1-Yuan
heavenly immortals could not reach this place. Even 2-Yuan
heavenly immortals would not be able to withstand the pressure
from the Well of Eternal Life.
Looking out, it was crystal clear for thousands of li.
Outside, there were many immortals, in twos and threes. Who
knew what they were up to.
All across the land, there were countless immortal palaces, and
the controller of the Pu Yuan Sky, the Pu Yuan Immortal King,
sat watchful.
Wu Yu left the Palace of Eternal Life’s boundaries and
immediately steered his Divine Continent Warship towards
Luo Tian City, one of the thousands of cities in the Feng Yuan
Sky Region.
The Ancient Emperor had taken over Wu Yu’s body here.
Before long, Wu Yu arrived!
"He is not far from me."
He could vaguely sense the connection growing stronger.
Much stronger than it had been at the Green Lotus Sky.
Luo Tian City!
The closer he got, the more agitated Wu Yu became.
He was the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast! His own body
had been usurped by someone!
This was the thing that would enrage him the most.
Consumed by his anger, it radiated out from him.
He even felt the impulse to devour other immortals, but he
curbed it.
Because right now, he was at his hungriest.
To him, he did not take a fancy to any other delicacies. After a
long and agonizing wait, the Ancient Emperor was the finest
delicacy to him.
"I’m near.
"Wait for me....
"I said that I would make you pay the price.
"Master, the day where I take revenge for you is almost upon
us...."
Even Ye Xixi was very emotional.
She had seen her parents die fighting.
That sort of emotional weight would never ease unless the
Ancient Emperor died.
Feng Yuan Sky Region! It was not especially far from the Well
of Eternal Life.
Luo Tian City was a big city!
It was twice the size of Qingyuan City, and there were many
immortals there, which made the place bustling. Nine Xuan
Dao Realm immortals were a common sight there.
Amidst the heavenly immortals, they were lofty and superior.
They had multiple daos, and great lifespans. They were all
elders who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, and
the ordinary heavenly immortals naturally respected them.
Wu Yu hid away from all of these Xuan immortals. The
stronger ones could crush him.
He did not want to be buried here.
After all, he now keenly felt the lack of an escaping ability like
his real body had.
Here at Luo Tian City, he found the immortal residence of the
Ancient Emperor.
He very seldom came here, but Wu Yu’s real body had been
here before.
But as he neared, Wu Yu did not show himself. When he was
nearby, his instincts told him that his target was no longer in
Luo Tian City.
"Shit." As expected, when he entered the immortal residence
with the help of the Ancient Emperor’s memories, there was no
one inside.
He went about the entire Luo Tian City once.
"Strange. The connection doesn’t feel as strong as when I was
near the Well of Eternal Life. Could he be near there?"
There had been too big a crowd near the Well of Eternal Life,
and it would have been reasonable that he had missed him.
"He’s not at Luo Tian City."
After Wu Yu ascertained this, he was discouraged. He was
most worried that his target would enter seclusion and be
completely unfindable.
He did not give up yet. His only clue for now was that the
feeling had been stronger near the Well of Eternal Life.
This meant that Luo Tian City was not the right direction.
"Turn back!"
Wu Yu decisively rode the Divine Continent Warship back
towards the Well of Eternal Life.
As expected, the connection was indeed stronger here.
But there were too many immortals near the Well of Eternal
Life. People were constantly coming and going.
And within 100 li, there were hundreds of thousands of
heavenly immortals. Finding his own body amongst them was
impossible.
But Wu Yu did not give up. He hung around the area for three
days and three nights, trying to get a sense of the minute
changes.
Finally, he realized that the strongest connection was to be
found at the entrance of the Well of Eternal Life. This meant
that he might not be at the Pu Yuan Sky anymore.
This connection had come to Wu Yu from other sky palaces,
through the Well of Eternal Life!
For Wu Yu, this flash of inspiration was a blessing.
"Go!"
He was very anxious. He had already wasted much time, and
he handed over another 100 Immortal Recovery Pills.
"Do you have a destination? Are you going to leave so
quickly?" Ye Xixi was also jumpy.
"There’s a place that’s very likely," Wu Yu said.
"Where?"
"The Su Yu Sky Palace, one level above. The Ancient Emperor
had some history with someone called Immortal Su Sang. In
the Pu Yuan Sky, I could feel his presence. That means he’s not
far away. If he hasn’t guessed that I’m here yet, then he might
have gone to Snow Feather City in the Su Yu Sky Palace."
The Full Moon of Nanshan laughed. "What a shameless guy
this Ancient Emperor is. He’s probably just an admirer of this
Immortal Su Sang, who isn’t his dao companion. He actually
lied to you by saying that she was your mother. What a
shameless fantasizer."
"The Ancient Emperor saved her life before, but he has no
background or talent. Therefore, Immortal Su Sang is grateful
to him, but only treats him as a friend. Immortal Su Sang is the
daughter of the Snow Feather City Lord, and the apple of his
eye. The Snow Feather Immortal Lord is also unwilling to let
the Ancient Emperor become his son-in-law. But this time, with
my real body, the Ancient Emperor’s great changes will
definitely make him want to go and see her."
The Full Moon of Nanshan said, "Truly a hopeless despot. A
toad trying to get a taste of a swan. Come. Let’s go meet your,
er, mother."
It seemed like Immortal Su Sang was a native immortal, just
like Liu Yuanqing.
Living in the sky palaces from the moment of birth. How
enviable.
Wu Yu entered the Well of Eternal Life and ascended again.
This time, it was very quick, as he was only ascending one level
of heaven.
"When I entered the Well of Eternal Life this time, there was
no disturbance. Which means that the previous one had nothing
to do with me."
Wu Yu thought to himself.
Actually, if not for more urgent matters on his plate, he would
have been more curious about the Well of Eternal Life’s
anomaly.
Because in these few days, he had seen immortals everywhere
discussing it.
Some had said that this heralded a heavenly change.
Because the Well of Eternal Life had never acted like this
before.
All of the immortals found it curious.
Even when Wu Yu arrived at the Su Yu Sky, the immortals here
were also discussing the Well of Eternal Life. Because of the
disturbance, the number of people using the Well of Eternal
Life had temporarily diminished. They were probably worried
that some breakdown would cause them to lose their immortal
lives.
But Wu Yu did not care!
After arriving here, he could sense that the connection was even
more pronounced now. Wu Yu could feel the bit of his
Primordial Spirit within the Ruyi Jingu Bang. The part that
belonged to him. And the Primordial Spirit trapped with Ming
Long could also sense Wu Yu’s nearness. The two were still
vaguely connected.
And the Ancient Emperor was probably oblivious to all of this.
Which meant that the Ancient Emperor was indeed here at the
Su Yu Sky.

And at the Su Yu Sky, the only place he would go was Snow

Feather City!
Snow Feather City was a small immortal city. Even so, the city
lord, the Snow Feather Immortal Lord, was in the Immortal
Lord Realm, so he was quite a threat to Wu Yu.
As expected, the closer he got to Snow Feather City, the
stronger the feeling became. Even before entering the city, Wu
Yu could pinpoint his real body’s location!
"The connection with my real body is stronger than I thought.
As for him, he will be completely unprepared for my arrival
this soon!"
Finally, Snow Feather City came into view. He locked on to his
real body’s location. It had not moved much in these few days,
which indicated that his enemy might be oblivious to how near
he was.
"Or he might know that I’m near, and has set a trap and is
waiting for me."
Both were possible. If this was a trap, it would be unnerving to
walk into.
Wu Yu could not be sure if his presence had been detected.
But his enemy could not know what he was thinking, or that he
had the Replicate skill!
Therefore, he was in no hurry after ascertaining his enemy’s
position. Because this was not going to be an easy fight!
This concerned Wu Yu’s future, his dignity, his vengeance, and
his body. It was everything.
It also concerned Ming Long.
Here, his real body and Primordial Spirit were firmly
connected. Although the consciousness was very faint, Wu Yu
still had some awareness.
However, given that it was completely sealed off, Wu Yu had
no idea what was going on with the Ancient Emperor right now.
He forced himself to calm down.
Even though the anger in his heart was bubbling over from how
close he was, he still had to rein himself in.
He entered Snow Feather City like a starving wolf.
Of course, he would not go in with his white-haired, red-eyed
guise. That would be too obvious, and the Ancient Emperor
would recognize him in a flash.
Wu Yu transformed into Liu Yuanqing. He could deceive even
his own father, let alone anyone else.
Snow Feather City was smaller than Qingyuan City, but very
prosperous because of its proximity to the Well of Eternal Life.
There were many immortals here, and, as expected, they were
discussing the Well of Eternal Life’s anomaly.
Many immortals were gathered in the teahouses here. The
immortal teas were all made with immortal essences that had
dozens of spiritual marks. They were more efficacious than true
immortal medicines, and were very precious.
Besides immortal teas, there were also immortal wines and all
sorts of delicacies. Any one of them would be a great treasure
in the mortal domain.
Wu Yu knew that Ancient Emperor and Immortal Su Sang were
both in the Snow Feather Immortal Residence, the city lord
residence. Perhaps the Snow Feather Immortal Lord was there.
There were also many Nine Xuan Dao Realm experts there.
Even a 1-Xuan immortal would be more than Wu Yu could
handle.
But because of how strong they were, Wu Yu had to be even
more cautious. He went to Snow Feather Immortal Residence
and waited at the door. Actually, the Ancient Emperor had
come here many times before, and many of the guards
recognized him. After all, he was the immortal who had saved
Immortal Su Sang’s life once before, even though he was a
mess.
Immortal Su Sang was already a 7-Yuan heavenly immortal,
while the Ancient Emperor was still a 5-Yuan heavenly
immortal. Who knew if the immortal guards would recognize
him if he were in Wu Yu’s body.
For now, Wu Yu could not rock the boat needlessly. He could
only observe and find the right opportunity. As long as the real
body was here, he had a chance.
But the real body had the Somersault Cloud and could flee in
an instant. Therefore, Wu Yu could not afford to alert him.
"I have to end things in one decisive blow!"
He waited at the entrance of the Snow Feather Immortal
Residence.
Day after day passed. Sometimes, promising opportunities
appeared, but Wu Yu resisted them all.
Finally the day came when a female immortal walked out of the
Snow Feather Immortal Residence. Wu Yu’s heart quickened
as he recognized her.
Of course, she was not Immortal Su Sang.
But she was the waiting woman of Immortal Su Sang, who had
grown up with her, and was often close by her side. Her name
was Xue Yi, and Immortal Su Sang respected her deeply.
Xue Yi swaggered out of the Snow Feather Immortal Residence
and then surreptitiously changed her dress before heading
towards Snow Feather City.
Clearly, it was a rare outing for her, and she must be trying to
secretly do something.
The Ancient Emperor and Immortal Su Sang were still in the
Snow Feather Immortal Residence.
Wu Yu had to find an open way to get near them. Otherwise,
the many elite immortals in the Snow Feather Immortal
Residence could send Wu Yu’s Heaven Devouring Avatar to
the next world with ease.
By Wu Yu’s estimation, there were perhaps a thousand
immortals inside stronger than he was. Even the bodyguards at
the door had been cultivating for hundreds of thousands of
years, and were Nine Xuan Dao Realm cultivators with
immortal dao marks.
Luckily, Xue Yi was not that strong. She had been cultivating
for quite a while, but was only a 4-Yuan heavenly immortal. In
terms of talent, she might be considered a legend in the mortal
domain.
But here at the 8,000 Sky Palaces, she was just average.
Wu Yu followed behind her in the guise of Liu Yuanqing. Xue
Yi was his target, and also his golden ticket. He followed her
doggedly.
Wu Yu knew quite a bit about Xue Yi from the Ancient
Emperor’s memories.
Previously, the Ancient Emperor had been blocked from
Immortal Su Sang mostly thanks to Xue Yi.
This woman had a caustic tongue. She was scathing and often
laid the Ancient Emperor bare.
Because Immortal Su Sang’s mother had suddenly passed
away, she had grown up under the care of Xue Yi, and was very
respectful of her.
The Ancient Emperor could do nothing about her.
Besides, given his 5-Yuan heavenly immortal power, he could
not crush her either.
But now things were different.
Xue Yi did not seem to be in a good mood. She kept her head
low and plodded on. She was a vicious character - even though
she was not particularly strong, she had many devious methods
and resources. Within the Snow Feather Immortal Residence,
not even the Nine Xuan Dao Realm immortals dared to cross
her.
But where was she sneaking off to so surreptitiously?
She made a straight line for the eastern corner of Snow Feather
City. There was an immortal residence here that was rather
remote. No one came here.
Immortal residences generally had spirit designs to protect
them. Wu Yu could not enter, as these immortal designs could
even repel a Xuan immortal.
However, the immortal residence was not big.
At this time, a young immortal came out of the immortal
residence.
The young immortal was a 2-Yuan heavenly immortal, and not
particularly strong. But in terms of his aura, and his dashing
looks, he was the Full Moon of Nanshan’s equal. Besides, he
was young and had a bright future.
Xue Yi broke out into a happy smile upon seeing him. The two
embraced for a while, then eagerly stumbled into the immortal
residence. The door shut, and soon happy cries began to sound
from inside.
Wu Yu wiped his sweat. So she had come out for adulterous
purposes.
Wu Yu thought it over. He recalled that Xue Yi had a dao
companion. However, he was a guard in the Snow Feather
Immortal Residence. A 9-Yuan heavenly immortal who was
fairly powerful. Because of his connection to Xue Yi, his status
was fairly high within the guards as well. The two had become
immortal dao companions more than 100,000 years ago.
And that young man was clearly new to immortalhood, and not
Xue Yi’s immortal dao companion.
New to immortalhood, and only a 2-Yuan heavenly immortal.
It was not likely that he would have such an immortal
residence.
"Which means the servant woman Xue Yi is taking care of her
illegal lover here. How exciting!" the Full Moon of Nanshan
exclaimed.
Ye Xixi said, "You’re one to talk. You’re pretty sinful
yourself."
The Full Moon of Nanshan coughed twice. "Nonsense. Your
Big Brother Nanshan is a pious man."
Wu Yu could not go into the immortal residence, so he waited
for Xue Yi to leave.
"Kill her?" the Full Moon of Nanshan asked.
"If I don’t, there will not be many chances for me to win back
my body. I don’t know when he will leave."
Wu Yu knew that this was his best chance.
And Xue Yi was the perfect "bridge."
Xue Yi had held the respect of Immortal Su Sang for a long
time, and she had also harmed many people before. This
included the other waiting women and subordinates at the Snow
Feather Immortal Residence.
In an immortal’s world, even the lowly servants were
immortals! They wished to cultivate freely as well, but without
a power protecting them, a mere heavenly immortal would find
it harsh to continue surviving in the sky palaces.
Wu Yu already knew that this was a super-scaled version of the
mortal domain. It was still a jungle with predators and prey.
The strong ate the weak.
For Wu Yu, gaining back his real body was everything!
The immortal residence was remote, and he had many chances
to ambush her along the way.
He picked the best spot and waited there for her return.
The Su Yu Sky Palace was permanently day. There was no
night.
Finally, he saw Xue Yi stumbling along contentedly.
She was probably still reliving her good times, and not at all
wary. Perhaps she was thinking of the next escapade she would
have.
Wu Yu was in the guise of Liu Yuanqing, with the Ancient
Immortal Tomahawk in his hand.
The Ancient Immortal Tomahawk was a high-grade immortal
treasure. The Taigu Nine Immortals Genesis design had 9
million spirit designs, and was a sophisticated offensive
immortal design.
Wu Yu used the immortal technique 3,000 Boreal Slashes,
channeling it into the Taigu Nine Immortals Genesis Design!
When Xue Yi passed by, humming a little tune, he descended
from above. The snow-white crystalline Ancient Immortal
Tomahawk executed the 3,000 Boreal Slashes! Instantly,
killing intent exploded forth. Countless glimmering tomahawks
appeared, caging the entire area. Xue Yi was surrounded, and
the entire area went silent. Blinding, snow-white light flooded
the place!
"Who is it! I am...." Xue Yi had just begun to sense danger
when she was already killed by Wu Yu’s 3,000 Boreal Slashes.
Weng!
The Ancient Immortal Tomahawk killed her immortal spirit.
Devour!
Here in the remote areas, he quickly finished devouring. When
he opened his eyes again, he headed for the Snow Feather
Immortal Residence.
"Ancient Emperor, your doomsday is here!"
In the last few days, the Ancient Emperor had finally come. At
first, Immortal Su Sang had not believed him, but he spoke of
many things in their past and finally gained her trust.
The Ancient Emperor’s goal was to take Immortal Su Sang
away.
But Immortal Su Sang was unwilling.
While the Snow Feather Immortal Lord was away, the Ancient
Emperor was racking his brain to close things out with
Immortal Su Sang.
Xue Yi had also gone out during Immortal Su Sang’s
cultivation time. She had been rushing back to help Immortal
Su Sang fend off the Ancient Emperor again.
Actually, Immortal Su Sang treated him as a very good friend.
After all, he had saved her life. And now that he had undergone
a life-changing metamorphosis, his future was bright, and she
was secretly glad.
But she felt that the Ancient Emperor was rushing things. He
could have become strong and then sought her out after.
All of this, Wu Yu now knew.
He also knew that the Ancient Emperor had actually passed the
Great Trial of the Immortal Dao!
"Well done, bastard. Saves me even that bit of work."
Wu Yu quickly returned to the Snow Feather Immortal
Residence. Along the way, he turned his body from a man’s to
a woman’s, becoming Xue Yi.
From inside to outside, head to toe, there was not a single flaw.
Finally, the moment arrived.
Nursing his thirst for blood, he headed for the Snow Feather
Immortal Residence.
For this moment, he had agonized for such a long time. Ever
since he lost his real body, Wu Yu had dreamed of taking down
the Ancient Emperor.
Even though he had already done so once.
He was not satisfied.
Bloodthirst began to radiate from his body.
The Full Moon of Nanshan suddenly said, "Brother, I just
thought of something. Say, if one day you transformed into a
great beauty, and I was attracted. What if I knocked you up?"
"HUH?!" His tension completely dissipated as that unwelcome
scene violated his imagination. Ye Xixi could not help but
laugh.
"F*ck off!" Wu Yu was repulsed. The Full Moon of Nanshan’s
brain was diseased, and it had to be in its final stages for him to
think of such a rotten idea.
"Haha, just getting you to relax. Your menacing air is too
pronounced. When you reach the Snow Feather Immortal
Residence, everyone will smell a rat. Listen to me. Deal with
this with equanimity. This is nothing big. A mere 5-Yuan
heavenly immortal - what’s that to you?"
The Full Moon of Nanshan spoke reasonably.
This was not the Jambu Realm. What was a mere 5-Yuan
heavenly immortal?
He had just casually slain a 4-Yuan heavenly immortal.
"Calm down. And take your revenge," the Full Moon of
Nanshan said.
"Many thanks."
Indeed, his killing intent had been too overpowering!
He had to remain calm. And cold.
After adjusting this, Wu Yu quickly headed back to the Snow
Feather Immortal Residence. The Xuan immortal guards even
bowed upon seeing her.
"A mere 4-Yuan heavenly immortal, but so respected by the
rest. I’ve about had it with her strutting."
"Enough. She might not be strong, but those who offend her are
destined for death."
Wu Yu could hear the two guards speaking. Of course, Xue Yi
would not have been able to hear them, given the disparity in
their cultivation levels.
He headed quickly for Immortal Su Sang’s residence. The
Ancient Emperor was there with her.
They drew closer and closer.
"I wonder if he will recognize me."
If he hadn’t left by now, he probably did not.
Keeping his face neutral, he walked into Immortal Su Sang’s
residence. In the garden, two people were embracing and
fondling each other at the pavilion. Things were getting hot and
heavy, and they looked like they were about to take it to the
next step. It was the exact moment that Xue Yi stepped in, and
the woman hurriedly said, "Xue Yi, where did you go today?"
She was indeed breathless. If Xue Yi had been a moment later,
she might have not been able to fend this man off.
That silhouette was all too familiar for Wu Yu.
It was himself!
Finally, he had found himself.
He turned to look at Wu Yu with a fierce glare, that he had
again been blocked.
Wu Yu balked a little at being stared at by "himself."
But he knew that it was the Ancient Emperor.
Fortunately, he had not had Wu Yu’s real body for long. Most
of his time had been spent cultivating. Using his previous dao
to respond to Wu Yu’s dao, he had passed the three dao crises
and the Great Trial of the Immortal Dao. He had actually made
Wu Yu’s real body an immortal!
Wu Yu could naturally feel how strong he was. Although it was
but a 1-Yuan heavenly immortal, the Invincible Vajra Body and
the prodigious immortal energy that the Great Way of
Immortality Art provided meant that he could probably defeat
a 7-Yuan heavenly immortal!
Wu Yu’s eyes met his.
Their stares crossed.
However, Wu Yu hid it for the moment, speaking from Xue
Yi’s memories.
"While Xue Yi was not around, how dare you lay hands on the
lady immortal herself? Do you believe that I won’t call the
guards to throw you out?"
Before the Ancient Emperor, Xue Yi was always very fierce.
Immortal Su Sang was indeed a stunning beauty. It was not
surprising that she was the daughter of an immortal lord with a
dignified position.
Perhaps she had been living like a princess and therefore didn’t
have a mind of her own. If Xue Yi had not returned, she would
not have been able to withstand the relentless advances of the
Ancient Emperor.
It was especially so after the Ancient Emperor was different
from before.
He had greater charisma, was more masculine, sturdier, and full
of power.
"You just stopped someone from using your body to be
affectionate with a stunning beauty!" The Full Moon of
Nanshan smiled sheepishly.
Wu Yu had no time to respond to him now.
What he had just said infuriated the Ancient Emperor.
In fact, this wasn’t the first time the Ancient Emperor’s plan
was disrupted by Xue Yi in the same manner. Wu Yu knew
how deeply the Ancient Emperor hated Xue Yi. The
humiliation that Xue Yi had dealt him made even his heart
shudder.
If he could kill in the Snow Feather Immortal Residence, the
first person would definitely be Xue Yi.
Initially, he thought it would be different this time. However,
to him, Xue Yi was still annoying and constantly foiled his
great plan.
Evidently, he was afraid that Wu Yu’s clone would come for
him. Therefore, he wanted to verify his relationship with
Immortal Su Sang before going into seclusion and focusing on
cultivation. Otherwise, if Immortal Su Sang became someone’s
dao companion when he came out of seclusion, everything
would have been for nothing.
It just so happened that Snow Feather Immortal Lord wasn’t
around at the moment.
However, Xue Yi was still a hindrance!
Wu Yu could tell that the Ancient Emperor had the thoughts of
killing him now.
Wu Yu smirked in his mind.
Without fear, he walked forward to help Immortal Su Sang up
and said, "Our Immortal Su Sang will be accepting the
guidance of Fulan Xuan Immortal. An idle person like you
should be on your way out of here."
When he finished speaking, he pulled Immortal Su Sang along
as they left. Immortal Su Sang was obedient but still said, "Big
Sister Xue, don’t be too fierce to him. He’s a good friend of
mine."
"I understand. Hehe." Wu Yu took Immortal Su Sang away and
to a 9-Xuan immortal. The Ancient Emperor could only
suppress his anger as he watched Wu Yu take her away and foil
his plan again.
He naturally wanted to remain in the immortal residence of Su
Sang. He was waiting for the next opportunity as he had not
verified their relationship and couldn’t leave with peace of
mind.
However, he knew that if he wanted to achieve his objective,
he had to cross the hurdle that was Xue Yi.
On most days, after sending Immortal Su Sang to Fulan Xuan
Immortal, Xue Yi would remain behind to wait. A guidance
might take several hours, several days, or even several months.
However, it was different this time. Without staying for a
second, Wu Yu returned to the immortal residence of Immortal
Su Sang. Finally, he had the opportunity to face the Ancient
Emperor alone.
Once he got back, the Ancient Emperor was in the guest room.
Murderous intent was tumbling within Wu Yu’s heart, but he
suppressed it.
Wu Yu was like a volcano that was compressed to its limit. It
was only a matter of time before the surging hatred and anger
would explode.
He was gloomy, and when he got close to the door, he asked,
"Are you in the room?"
The Ancient Emperor opened the door forcefully and asked,
"You are looking for me? Aren’t you afraid that I will kill you?"
Wu Yu chuckled. The Ancient Emperor still thought that he
was speaking to Xue Yi. Therefore, Wu Yu answered, "If you
had the guts, I wouldn’t be looking down on you as much. We
are in the Snow Feather Immortal Residence and you are just a
pile of trash that was assigned to guard a lower realm. You can’t
even stay in the sky palaces for long, and you are thinking of
killing me? A toad lusting for the flesh of a swan. Even though
you once saved our Su Sang and she treats you with great
respect, I won’t be courteous with you."
The Ancient Emperor’s expression was contorting from anger.
He enjoyed incomparable respect and admiration when he was
in the lower realm, but he had to be humiliated by a servant in
this immortal residence!
Nonetheless, he knew that he had to endure. He had the capital
now, and it was just that he had not become an elite immortal.
Wu Yu believed that the Ancient Emperor was fantasizing that
once he became an elite immortal, he would definitely give Xue
Yi a tragic death.
It was time to act!
The opportunity to meet the Ancient Emperor alone wasn’t
easy.
Without saying a word, Wu Yu stepped into the guest room.
Once he got in, he closed the door.
"What are you doing?" His sudden action left the Ancient
Emperor puzzled.
However, after hearing what Wu Yu had said, he was
determined and wanted Xue Yi dead even in his dreams.
In this enclosed space, Wu Yu got closer to the Ancient
Emperor. Or rather, he was getting closer to his main body until
there was just a short distance between the two of them.
Letting an outsider control his body was the greatest
humiliation ever!
"What do you think I’m trying to do?" Wu Yu reached out and
grabbed the collar of the Ancient Emperor’s clothes. He was
still in the form of Xue Yi.
"Let me go. I’m not interested in you, bitch!" The Ancient
Emperor glowered at him.
"Haha. You got it wrong. I’m here to reclaim what belongs to
me!!" In that split second, Wu Yu’s expression turned
grotesque. From a woman, he morphed into his white-haired,
red-eyed form!
In just the time of a split second, the Ancient Emperor
witnessed an unbelievable scene. Seeing someone he hated to
the core abruptly becoming Wu Yu was too huge a blow!
"This cannot be...." The Ancient Emperor was dealt a severe
blow mentally.
His expression paled.
Obviously, that was Wu Yu’s expression as well!
When he said those words, he turned into a cloud of dense
smoke! When the Ancient Emperor was stumped and his jaw
was on the floor, Wu Yu dived into his body through his mouth
immediately.
The next instant, the Ancient Emperor did a flip and appeared
outside Snow Feather City! He naturally wanted to shake Wu
Yu off.
However, he had never expected Wu Yu to have entered his
body and spread into his primordial spirit, or one should say,
his immortal spirit!
Initially, Wu Yu could only switch between the mist state and
the primordial spirit state. Now that he had a body of flesh and
blood, it didn’t mean he couldn’t enter the interior world of a
dao treasure directly in his primordial spirit state.
He was even more familiar with the Somersault Cloud and
knew that the Somersault Cloud had to fuse into his body before
leaping. Both bodies had originated from the same sources.
Therefore, after Wu Yu entered his main body, he moved along
with the Somersault Cloud. Therefore, the Ancient Emperor’s
Somersault Cloud didn’t shake Wu Yu off!
Moreover, they were now in the wilderness!
After arriving at this place, the Ancient Emperor definitely
knew Wu Yu was still within him.
"Impossible! Impossible! Get out of me, now!" The Ancient
Emperor had never expected Wu Yu’s clone to achieve
something like this and morph into an immortal spirit state.
"I have you to thank for not completing your Immortal Art:
Immortal Fusing Body Seizing. I didn’t even have a way to
undo it! Ancient Emperor, what belongs to you will be mine,
including that which was once mine. I have you to thank for
achieving immortalhood for me!"
Wu Yu’s Heaven Devouring Avatar spread out swiftly within
the main body. Although the Genesis Immortal Panacea had
taken roots in his body, the real owner of the body would
always be Wu Yu, who had a greater compatibility to it.
Wu Yu finally reached this moment!
He no longer had to endure in silence!
All the fury and anger that had been suppressed in his chest was
released explosively, giving Wu Yu destructive and imposing
momentum!
The Ancient Emperor was flustered.
He was aware that the Immortal Art: Immortal Fusing Body
Seizing had not succeeded completely.
In the past, the devouring of Wu Yu’s main primordial spirit
had left him shuddering in fear.
And now, the secondary primordial spirit that specialized in
devouring entered his body directly in his immortal spirit state
and would be facing off against his immortal spirit right away!
How could the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord be so frightening?
The Xue Yi before him previously was no different from the
one in the past!
"Get out of me, now!" The Ancient Emperor assumed that his
immortal spirit was still stronger than Wu Yu. Therefore, he
berated at this point.
"You are the one that should get out! However, it will be hard
for you even if you wish to! Your immortal spirit will become
food for me!"
Wu Yu’s hysterical laughter resounded.

"I found it!"

The Ancient Emperor’s immortal spirit.
Within the sea of knowledge was the form of the Ancient
Emperor and not Wu Yu.
Gradually, Wu Yu took shape in the sea of knowledge.
The immortal spirit was the source of power for an immortal.
The Ancient Emperor’s immortal spirit had the strength of a 5-
Yuan heavenly immortal and encompassed Wu Yu’s initial
99%.
If it was just an immortal spirit, the Ancient Emperor would be
a compelling opponent.
However, Wu Yu’s Heaven Devouring Avatar was stronger.
His body was the same as his immortal spirit.
At this point, he finally faced the Ancient Emperor in the sea
of knowledge!
Within the sea of knowledge, Wu Yu’s white hair fluttered with
the wind. His eyes had turned red.
As for the Ancient Emperor, he had a proud and aloof
expression. One of his eyes was gold, while the other had the
shade of a gloomy moon.
He snorted, "Since you are here, don’t even think of leaving.
Your Heaven Devouring Avatar will be mine too." Wu Yu
burst into laughter driven by anger. At this point, he could no
longer endure another instant.
He wouldn’t want to spend time exchanging useless words with
the other party.
"Grrr!"
At the same time, Wu Yu turned into the Heaven Devouring
Titanic Beast within the sea of knowledge.
Naturally, he was still in the immortal spirit state. It was just
that he had taken up a more ferocious form.
This was his main body and therefore he could enter. If he were
someone else, he wouldn’t be able to enter the sea of
knowledge.
His second primordial spirit had detached from this place at the
very beginning!
"Now die!" Immortal energy surged forth from the Ancient
Emperor’s immortal spirit. The power of his immortal energy
was derived from the Great Way of Immortality Art! His
immortal energy swept forward like a deluge.
"Tsk!"
Wu Yu’s Heaven Devouring Avatar coalesced into a solid state.
Weng! In no time, he had become the Green Emperor!
The Green Emperor’s dreamy eyes could create illusions.
Hu!
A green glow penetrated the Ancient Emperor’s immortal
energy and shrouded the sea of knowledge.
Although the Ancient Emperor’s immortal spirit was powerful,
he was still dragged into the illusions created by Wu Yu.
Immediately after, Wu Yu transformed again!
He turned into the Red Devil!
Countless red blood vessels extended out. When the Ancient
Emperor was still resisting the illusions of the Green Emperor,
the red vessels had coiled and tangled around him.
The tricks that the Ancient Emperor’s immortal spirit had
couldn’t be compared with Wu Yu’s.
All he could do now was release immortal energy constantly.
As for Wu Yu, he transformed constantly between various
ghostly immortals, demon immortals, and immortals to use
their unique techniques. For example, the eyes of the Green
Emperor could create demonic illusions, and the Red Devil
could create countless red vessels.
A second later, countless blood vessels penetrated the Ancient
Emperor’s immortal spirit and coiled around him at least 10
times over!
Wu Yu’s Heaven Devouring Avatar was a notch stronger than
the Ancient Emperor’s immortal spirit to begin with. Now that
the Ancient Emperor was tied down, he couldn’t break away
by releasing immortal energy, as Wu Yu had him restrained!
"You can give up now! Your body is mine now and you are
never going to get it away from me!" the Ancient Emperor
berated.
"Is that so?" He was met with a cold laugh from Wu Yu.
"Wu Yu, don’t get carried away with your wishful thinking!
This is a fact that you can’t change. Just like the death of your
master, it has happened and can’t be reversed. Why do you
insist on this futile endeavor? Haha...." The Ancient Emperor
tried to deal a blow to Wu Yu in this manner.
"I, the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor, have been gifted by the
heavens from birth in the Jambu Realm. The legacy of the Great
Sage, Heaven’s Equal is an opportunity bestowed to me by the
heavens! It’s just that it came through you! I’m the person
chosen by the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal. You aren’t! My life
is destined to be glamorous, while you are destined to be a
cockroach living in the dark, never to see any light. You
definitely won’t live for long!"
Wu Yu tightened his grip, and the Ancient Emperor couldn’t
even move a finger now.
Wu Yu tittered, "You are gifted from birth? Why, then, could a
waiting lady humiliate you? Why can’t you even get the
daughter of an immortal lord? You should wake up now.
Undoubtedly, you are gifted in the Jambu Realm, which is one
of the 90,000 Lesser Realms. However, you are as insignificant
as a speck of dust in this Heavenly Domain! Are you feeling
mentally imbalanced? Is that why you thought of snatching
someone else’s body? Have you forgotten how I devoured your
flesh and blood bite after bite?"
Hatred, anger and other emotions weaved together. Through
the extension of the Red Devil’s body, Wu Yu tightened
furiously and almost crushed the Ancient Emperor’s immortal
spirit to death.
"Haha! So what if you are right? What else can you do other
than trap me? The Immortal Art: Immortal Fusing Body
Seizing can’t be reversed!" The Ancient Emperor was
smirking, and he was probably confident about it.
"Stop fooling yourself. Aren’t you the one who would know
most clearly whether the Immortal Art: Immortal Fusing Body
Seizing had succeeded completely? Ancient Emperor, you are
just trash. Why do you insist on miring yourself in
disillusionment? That you are someone favored by the
heavens?"
Wu Yu laughed loudly.
He had the Ancient Emperor restrained tightly.
"Now, I will show you the price for your audacious thought of
seizing my body!"
Had the technique truly been successful?
The Ancient Emperor probably thought so.
He seemed to have forgotten about the last seed that he failed
to digest fully in the past.
Even though it was just a meagre seed, if it was allowed to
germinate, it could eventually grow into a towering tree!
"You can come out now!"
Only a tiny bit of Wu Yu’s main primordial spirit was left. It
had resided within the Ruyi Jingu Bang for a very long time.
Only by hiding in that place could he escape the danger of being
devoured.
Only in that place could he survive. Otherwise, he would
eventually fade and die!
While waiting dully and in loneliness, he had been waiting for
the day that his Heaven Devouring Avatar trapped the Ancient
Emperor.
Moreover, the immortal spirit of the Heaven Devouring Avatar
was currently equivalent to a 7-Yuan heavenly immortal, which
could crush the Ancient Emperor!
The tiny bit of primordial spirit came out of the Ruyi Jingu
Bang in the form of a tiny head. After he got out, Wu Yu could
no longer sense where the Ruyi Jingu Bang was.
After which, the final bit of the primordial spirit flew towards
the sea of knowledge with great familiarity. Compared to the
other two colossal immortal spirits, the tiny bit was too fragile.
However, this tiny bit of primordial spirit belonged to Wu Yu
fully!
"You have yet to die?" The Ancient Emperor had probably
never expected Wu Yu’s main primordial spirit to still be
around. Perhaps he believed that Wu Yu’s main primordial
spirit had perished even with the protection of the Ruyi Jingu
Bang.
Wu Yu pried open the mouth of Ancient Emperor’s immortal
spirit to stop him from speaking and let him watch the main
primordial spirit enter his mouth and fly into his body.
"I will let you witness what it means to be devoured!"
At this point, he had the Ancient Emperor entangled in over
100 layers, forming a huge, blood-red sphere. The sphere was
the Ancient Emperor’s immortal spirit compressed to the point
that he was deformed. Within the Ancient Emperor’s immortal
spirit was Wu Yu’s main primordial spirit, frenziedly
devouring. The Ancient Emperor had now lost the 10 times
enhancement he once had and was being restrained by Wu Yu’s
Heaven Devouring Avatar, so his fate was sealed.
The main primordial spirit was strengthening by the second!
The stronger he got, the more resilient and tougher to erase he
would be.
As Wu Yu’s main primordial spirit strengthened, the Ancient
Emperor was weakening and becoming more fragile!
After all, he had once devoured 99% of Wu Yu and assimilated
that portion into his own immortal spirit. Therefore, there were
marks of Wu Yu left behind in various locations.
It was because of this that Wu Yu’s main primordial spirit could
devour. If this were the immortal spirit of someone else, he
definitely wouldn’t be able to do this. The main body wasn’t
the Heaven Devouring Avatar.
This process was Wu Yu having his revenge!
He was gratified to finally have this moment. Feeling extremely
delighted, he asked, "Does this feel good? What isn’t yours will
never be yours." The Ancient Emperor had gone silent. He was
struggling, resisting, and attempting to reverse-digest Wu Yu’s
main primordial spirit!
Perhaps he could do it. However, Wu Yu’s Heaven Devouring
Avatar had him restrained. The blood vessels had penetrated
into his immortal spirit, pushing it to the brink of shattering. He
couldn’t put up a meaningful resistance now. As the primordial
spirit of Wu Yu’s real body strengthened, the devouring ability
became more prominent, and the Ancient Emperor’s resistance
became more fragile. If this went on, even without the restraints
of the Heaven Devouring Avatar, the Ancient Emperor would
be dead for sure!
"Hahahaha!!" To Wu Yu’s surprise, the Ancient Emperor was
laughing as he approached his doom.
"You are right. I’m a god-like existence in the Jambu Realm,
but I’m really no different from a speck of dust in the Heavenly
Domain. It seems like what doesn’t belong to me will never be
mine. For example, Su Sang and this legacy! This physical
body!"
In his laughter, one could hear his sadness.
"Now that you are able to face that, I guess you can face your
death more openly." Wu Yu was close to success.
He gnashed his teeth and felt that the Ancient Emperor would
be getting away easy if he just finished the Ancient Emperor
off like this.
"Master, if only you could know that I’m about to kill him."
Wu Yu recalled his guidance as he entered the path to
immortality. Without him, there wouldn’t be the current Wu
Yu! Recalling the various memories, his solemnity and
kindness.
"Cultivation is plunder, the strong rule the weak!"
These words corresponded to Wu Yu’s dao and would never
waver. He understood that the core of cultivation was
plundering everything. This was the same reasoning behind the
devouring of his Heaven Devouring Avatar.
Therefore, he wasn’t against devouring.
He also knew that only the strong could speak of justice. The
weak had no right to justice!
Unknowingly, the main body had devoured half of Ancient
Emperor’s immortal spirit and reached a stable state.
Moving forward, the devouring would be quicker. Once the
devouring was complete, Wu Yu would regain control of his
body. He might even gain the dao from the Ancient Emperor.
Naturally, he would also gain the strength of the Ancient
Emperor.
The Ancient Emperor was indeed incredible to achieve
immortalhood in such a short period.
Wu Yu saw the light to victory.
"Now I can look for Luo Pin." This was something that Wu Yu
had always been looking forward to.
At this moment, the Ancient Emperor said, "Wu Yu, you have
underestimated me. Although I’m destined to die today and can
never accomplish my dreams and be with her, I’ll never allow
you to get what you want. You have overestimated yourself.
Aren’t you aware that all of this can be destroyed? For you, I
have prepared the Immortal Spirit Decimating Calamity
Technique!!"
The Immortal Spirit Decimating Calamity Technique!
The Ancient Emperor was truly deplorable, learning various
forbidden immortal techniques!
Immortal Art: Immortal Fusing Body Seizing.
Immortal Spirit Decimating Calamity Technique!
To put it simply, the latter was the self-destruction of one’s
immortal spirit. It was about using one’s death to attack the
enemy, targetting the enemy’s immortal spirit!
At this moment, Ming Long cried out tragically, "Wu Yu, run!"
If the Immortal Spirit Decimating Calamity Technique went off
here, with his immense immortal energy still intact, everything
here would be decimated!
Upon hearing this, Wu Yu could feel a chill from the bottom of
his feet to his head!

How could he have forgotten that the Ancient Emperor knew a

forbidden immortal technique like this?
Or perhaps he had never paid much attention to it. While he
searched through the memories of the Ancient Emperor, he
only took a quick glance instead of understanding the tricks that
he might have at hand. Wu Yu had never expected the Ancient
Emperor to use an immortal technique like this at this point.
Ming Long had asked Wu Yu to get away, but the primordial
spirit of Wu Yu’s real body was still in the Ancient Emperor’s
belly. With the Heaven Devouring Avatar coiled countless
times over the Ancient Emperor, there was no way he could
escape.
Moreover, the Ancient Emperor would never allow Wu Yu the
opportunity to escape!
After he was done, amidst his angry bellows, desperation, and
frenzy, he used the Immortal Spirit Decimating Calamity
Technique to self-destruct his immortal spirit! Wu Yu had
never expected the Ancient Emperor to attempt to bring himself
down with him!
What he couldn’t get, he wouldn’t allow Wu Yu to get either!
There was no chance of escaping. This terrifying explosion
turned everything into nothingness within the sea of
knowledge. Although Wu Yu’s Heaven Devouring Avatar
might survive, his main body and the primordial spirit of the
main body would be decimated!
The only thing he could have done was revert back to the
Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast form and cover the Ancient
Emperor’s immortal spirit with his colossal wings to prevent
the main body from being destroyed. However, the primordial
spirit of the main body would undoubtedly die, as it was in the
core of the explosion.
At the last moment, before destruction, Wu Yu thought of Luo
Pin.
"It seems like I have yet to meet her and bid my farewell...."
When the Immortal Spirit Decimating Calamity Technique
exploded, he overwhelmed everything. The primordial spirit of
the main body shattered, followed by the immortal spirit of the
Heaven Devouring Avatar. From the beginning, one’s
immortal spirit was the most fragile. However, only one’s
immortal spirit could enter the sea of knowledge.
There wasn’t time to evade at all.
Wu Yu suffered a severe blow. He felt like he might be fully
decimated this time. Even if a small bit of the Heaven
Devouring Avatar remained, it was possible that he might die
fully in the 8,000 Sky Palaces.
Lots of memories ran through his mind in this instant.
He had been careful but had still miscalculated the Ancient
Emperor’s frenzy.
Perhaps the Ancient Emperor was someone with a story.
He felt humiliated, belittled, and found it hard to endure.
However, Wu Yu couldn’t possibly spare him after he
attempted to rob himself of everything.
In the end, he wasn’t a simple man, and he wanted Wu Yu to
perish with him.
The thing he regretted the most was not being able to see how
she was after she became an immortal.
He regretted that he could never fulfill his promise to her.
Wu Yu could clearly feel the immortal spirit of the Heaven
Devouring Avatar, the immortal spirit of the Ancient Emperor,
and the primordial spirit of his main body shattering and on the
brink of dispersing.
Wu Yu used the Heaven Devouring Avatar to protect the sea of
knowledge and hence the physical body. However, leaving
behind a body without an immortal spirit was the equivalent of
death.
"Despair?"
Wu Yu didn’t know the attitude he should adopt to face it
before his consciousness faded.
He was indignant, but there was no other way. It had happened.
The cultivation world had always been brutal.
Misery and despair.
He had avenged himself, but he was gone too.
No matter how much he desired to live, it was pointless.
All of a sudden, in his groggy and shattering sea of knowledge,
Wu Yu saw a golden rod hovering above the sea of knowledge,
suppressing the scattering.
Just as everything was shattering, Wu Yu had not expected the
Ruyi Jingu Bang, which had been hidden within his body for
an unknown amount of time, to show up within his sea of
knowledge.
It had been a really long time since Wu Yu had seen the Milky
Way Suppressing Godly Metal Treasure so clearly.
When it hung high up in the sky of the sea of knowledge with
majesty, dominance, and an awe-inspiring aura, something
strange was happening.
Wu Yu could sense that when the Ancient Emperor self-
destructed his immortal spirit to destroy his Heaven Devouring
immortal spirit and the primordial spirit of his real body, the
Ruyi Jingu Bang had materialized to take control!
First, his Heaven Devouring immortal spirit had shattered by
now. At least 90% of it shot out of the Sea of Knowledge and
fused with Wu Yu’s physical body and meridians.[1]
For the remaining 10%, it combined with the lingering energy
from the Ancient Emperor’s self-destructed immortal spirit and
the shattered primordial spirit of the main body to enter a
chaotic state.
Soon, the lingering immortal spirit and primordial spirit would
shatter further and fade away.
Initially, Wu Yu was in despair. He knew he wouldn’t have the
opportunity to see Luo Pin ever again.
However, he had never expected the sudden emergence of the
Ruyi Jingu Bang to suppress the immortal spirit. Moreover, it
released two light rays, of which one was gold and the other
black.
The golden light surrounded the entire sea of knowledge, while
the black light flew out of the sea of knowledge to envelope the
entire immortal body.
What was happening?
"Could it be that the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal is still silently
helping and watching out for me?"
Wu Yu was a little moved. Sun Wudao suddenly came to mind.
The feeling that the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal was giving
him was similar to what he felt from Sun Wudao.
Meticulous care and concern.
Basking in the two colors of light, Wu Yu was returning from
death.
When the golden light illuminated the sea of knowledge, Wu
Yu could see his Heaven Devouring immortal spirit, the
primordial spirit of his main body, and the shattered immortal
spirit of the Ancient Emperor beginning to coalesce, solidify,
and eventually fuse into one.
What remained of the immortal spirit of the Ancient Emperor
was largely Wu Yu’s initial primordial spirit.
Moreover, with the usage of the Immortal Spirit Decimating
Calamity Technique, the Ancient Emperor was finished at last.
The golden light was warm and Wu Yu felt as though he was
back in the womb of his mother. The Ruyi Jingu Bang
gradually collected the shattered parts together and helped them
to fuse into one.
This was because both the Heaven Devouring immortal spirit
and Wu Yu’s primordial spirit were one to begin with.
The Ruyi Jingu Bang didn’t try to repair them separately.
Wu Yu realized that the two shattered spirits seemed to be
fusing into one.
This lasted for roughly 15 minutes.
In the end, a complete spirit emerged in his sea of knowledge,
with the Ruyi Jingu Bang suppressing it.
That was Wu Yu’s original look. It was just that the color of his
hair was slightly white and his eyes were slightly red. Overall,
he was similar to the Heaven Devouring Avatar in his human
form.
A devilish demeanor.
Amidst the devilish demeanor, one could feel the dominance
and masculinity of the main body.
This was Wu Yu’s new primordial spirit.
Or rather, since it had reached the level of an immortal, it could
be called the new immortal spirit.
The new immortal spirit was complete, powerful, and perfect.
With the Ruyi Jingu Bang still assisting him from above, Wu
Yu seemed to form a new connection with the new immortal
spirit.
At this point, the new immortal spirit was still at a recovering
and awakening stage. Wu Yu was consolidating the immortal
spirit strength that once belonged to the Ancient Emperor.
He kept his devouring ability and could devour this portion for
his own use.
The Heaven Devouring immortal spirit had fused perfectly with
the primordial spirit of the main body. Moreover, they kept the
abilities that each of them owned. Now that he had all the
abilities, he could maximize their potential to the fullest.
This was just the change to the primordial spirit within the sea
of knowledge.
Wu Yu still had 90% of the Heaven Devouring Avatar that
leaked out of the sea of knowledge. That portion should have
continued shattering and eventually faded into non-existence.
However, with the black light that came from the Ruyi Jingu
Bang enveloping his body, this portion was locked into Wu
Yu’s immortal body.
After which, under the guidance of the black light, those
shattered portions assimilated into each molecule of the main
body!
Soon after, they started fusing and the Heaven Devouring
Avatar finally completed the fusion with the main body!
For Wu Yu, this was a little similar to shattering both his bodies
and then putting them together.
Although the Heaven Devouring Avatar had shattered, it had
greater strength and was more ferocious. During the fusion
process, it stood up well against the main body.
"Could it be that my main body and Heaven Devouring Avatar
are going to fuse into one because of this encounter? Moving
forward, what changes will there be?
"Will I be able to bring out the strengths from both bodies?" At
the very least, Wu Yu was certain he wouldn’t die. As for
whether he would lose the ability to devour or if he would
inherit both sets of abilities, it would be dependent on the
changes that were still unravelling.
The Heaven Devouring Avatar was an uncertain and terrorizing
factor. If he could improve his control through certain means,
it would definitely be a lot better.
The fusion wasn’t quick. Wu Yu could pick up the minute
changes happening throughout his body. Now his new
immortal spirit was gradually taking shape.
In the aspect of the physical body, the shrapnels of the Heaven
Devouring Avatar had fused with the power of the physical
body.
Wu Yu could feel the changes.
Once when he achieved the Vairocana Vajra Buddha Body,
each molecule of his body was forged into the form of a
buddha.
And now, when the black mist fused into the image of the
buddha, the golden buddha was dyed black.
Black buddha.
This added a sinister feel to its majesty.
When trillions upon trillions of black buddhas piled together, it
would be Wu Yu’s immortal body.
In the end, the light traced back into the Ruyi Jingu Bang but
remained above the new immortal spirit. Wu Yu’s new body
was forged.
In the aspect of his immortal spirit, it retained the looks of the
Heaven Devouring Avatar in human form with the will of Wu
Yu’s main body. The portion of the Ancient Emperor had died
completely, but his memories and everything he once had were
robbed by Wu Yu.
The new immortal spirit was formed with 1/10th of the Heaven
Devouring Avatar and the portion of Wu Yu’s immortal spirit
that the Ancient Emperor had helped strengthen after achieving
immortalhood.
Although the immortal spirit forged by the Ancient Emperor
was just that of a 1-Yuan heavenly immortal, it was still
extremely powerful. Compared to other immortal spirits, it
wasn’t any weaker than a 4-Yuan heavenly immortal.
Moreover, it was still constantly getting stronger.
As for the physical body, the Heaven Devouring Avatar fused
perfectly with the main body. At this moment, Wu Yu opened
his eyes.
He was outside Snow Feather City and in the middle of a
mountain range. Many immortals were fond of building their
immortal residences within mountain ranges.
Fortunately, the immortals in the vicinity had not come to
disturb Wu Yu. Otherwise, the fusion wouldn’t be that
successful.
Wu Yu was looking at his new body.
After becoming an immortal, he felt really different.
He was at a level similar to the Ancient Emperor’s previously.
Although he didn’t experience an increase in cultivation level
because of the fusion, he was definitely stronger.

What Wu Yu was most anxious about was if the ability of

devouring had still remained after the shattered Heaven
Devouring Avatar fused with his main body.
Were the abilities of Immolate, Return, and Replicate still
around?
These were all frightening abilities. If Wu Yu lost them, he
would undoubtedly lose a lot in this encounter. He believed that
if the Heaven Devouring Avatar could fuse perfectly with the
main body, it was unlikely he would have lost these abilities.
Soon, after getting familiar with his new body, he gained a
sudden realization that nothing was lost.
The abilities of both bodies had fused together perfectly.
With just a thought, he could change the appearance of his body
from black-haired, black-eyed to a body with a devilish
demeanor, white hair, and red eyes.
With a simple thought, his body could enlarge swiftly as he
morphed into the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast! The sharp,
ivory horn; the pitch-black scale armor; the long, slender tail;
and the gruesome fangs were still around, not any different
from before.
Moreover, the key was that he still had pangs of hunger and
could devour and digest. As for Immolate and Replicate, it
wouldn’t be an issue.
He still could transform into Liu Yuanqing easily, keeping his
abilities.
At the same time, he could use the Immortal Ape
Transformation and the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and
Earth to further enlarge his body!
"I guess the two bodies have fused perfectly."
This might seem simple, but it was actually extremely
complicated. This was because the Heaven Devouring Avatar
didn’t have a specific cultivation level. As Wu Yu’s main body
strengthened, his cultivation level had to follow. In the past, the
Heaven Devouring Avatar just had to devour. However, if he
wished to strengthen himself through devouring, his cultivation
level had to increase too. Each cultivation level had a maximum
capacity that one could fit.
This was similar to the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast
existing in a different manner than before.
The details were complicated and Wu Yu was still integrating
his newfound prowess. He was searching through the memories
of the Ancient Emperor over this period. As such, he could
learn the changes that had happened to his physical body after
the Ancient Emperor took control.
"Who would have thought he would raise the strength of my
main body so extensively over this short period of time?"
When Wu Yu obtained those memories, he was rather stumped.
His new body was complicated and different from those of
ordinary immortals.
First, after achieving immortalhood, the Ruyi Jingu Bang had
given him two Longevity Immortal Arts!
One came from the Great Way of Immortality Art and was a
standard immortal technique. However, its might was
incredible and it was definitely elite among all other immortal
techniques.
Its name was the Bodhi Immortal Dao Art.
The Bodhi Immortal Dao Art honed one’s immortal spirit and
immortal body to pursue longevity. Of which, it focused on
one’s immortal spirit.
There was a total of nine tiers, and the first tier was the One
Bodhi Realm.
Within one’s immortal spirit, it would create light dots known
as Bodhi Seeds. Each light dot encompassed immense
immortal energy.
The second tier was known as the Three Bodhi Realm. The
number of Bodhi Seeds would increase to three to harness
Bodhi immortal energy. This power far exceeded other second
tier Longevity Immortal Arts.
The third tier was the Nine Bodhi Realm. As the name
suggested, there would be nine Bodhi Seeds, so Bodhi
immortal energy would be even more tempestuous.
The fourth tier was the Mortal Bodhi Realm, where the number
of Bodhi Seeds would reach 27.
Each subsequent tier would be three times the number from
before.
The fifth tier was known as the Lunar Bodhi Realm, with a total
of 81 Bodhi Seeds.
When he became a 9-Yuan heavenly immortal, he would have
a total of 6,561 Bodhi Seeds and his cultivation level would be
the Void Bodhi Realm.
At the Void Bodhi Realm, one would have numerous Bodhi
Seeds, and the Bodhi immortal energy would be immense and
seemingly endless. As Bodhi immortal energy circulated
through the immortal body, it cleansed and nourished one’s
meridians, enabling one to have a lifespan of a million years.
Previously, the Ancient Emperor had just gone through the
Great Trial of the Immortal Dao to reach the One Bodhi Realm.
Within his immortal spirit, there was a single light dot, and that
was the Bodhi Seed. Currently, it resided at the core of Wu
Yu’s new immortal spirit.
Wu Yu also had a second Longevity Immortal Art!
This second Longevity Immortal Art was called the Longevity
Buddha Art.
Its cultivation method was completely different from other
Longevity Immortal Arts.
The Ancient Emperor had also cultivated it.
This Longevity Buddha Art had come from the Invincible Vajra
Body.
It was actually the seventh tier of the Invincible Vajra Body.
Its name was the Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha.
The Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha did not hone one’s
immortal spirit, but continued to enhance the physical body.
But what was different from other immortals was that when one
trained the body, one could actually create buddha energy in
the molecules of one’s body!
Buddha energy was similar to immortal energy, but was stored
in the very molecules of one’s body. It was as strong as
immortal energy. And the buddha energy that Wu Yu cultivated
with the Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha was as strong
as Bodhi immortal energy.
Its name was the Nine Aspects Vajra Buddha Energy.
The Nine Aspects Vajra Buddha Energy complemented the
physical body even better than the combination of immortal
energy with the physical body.
Therefore, Wu Yu now had two types of energy within his
body. One was Bodhi immortal energy.
The other was Nine Aspects Vajra Buddha Energy.
As for his Heaven Devouring Avatar’s strength, it had already
been integrated into these two types of energy, making both
stronger.
The Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha was divided into
nine tiers, which also needed to be worked through step by step.
The first tier was the Fire Aspect Realm. In the buddha
molecules, one would create a fire aspect realm, unlocking the
power of fire within the Nine Aspects Vajra Buddha Energy.
The second tier was the Water Aspect Realm, which would
unlock the power of water.
The third tier was the Metal Aspect Realm.
The fourth tier was the Wood Aspect Realm.
The fifth tier was the Earth Aspect Realm.
The sixth tier was the Wind Aspect Realm.
The seventh tier was the Lightning Aspect Realm.
The eighth tier was the Darkness Aspect Realm.
The ninth tier was the Light Aspect Realm.
At the ninth tier, one would have 1 million years of life and
nine different powers within one’s Vajra Buddha Energy.
The Ancient Emperor had furthered these two Longevity
Immortal Arts equally. Although it might be a slower process,
their power was awesome.
With two different sources of strength, and both of them being
top-quality immortal energies, alongside all sorts of mystiques,
5-Yuan heavenly immortals could not fight him, even though
he was a 1-Yuan heavenly immortal.
The Bodhi Immortal Dao Art’s cultivation required dao
enlightenment, true immortal medicines, and various other
cultivation resources.
As for the Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha, that also
required precious treasures. For example, the fire aspect realm,
which the Ancient Emperor had completed, required a rare true
immortal medicine called the Scarlet Sky Pill.
Wu Yu was wondering - could his devouring continue to grow
these two strengths?
Currently, most of his dao insights had come from the Heaven
Devouring Avatar, and they were from a whole range of
schools of thought and differing immortal levels.
All of these could serve as reference for Wu Yu to contemplate
dao. He had yet to connect them to each other, but he felt that
given their own insights, he could definitely make their
experiences his own. All he needed was sufficient immortal
medicines or devouring and he could improve the Bodhi
Immortal Dao Art at a ferocious rate. Especially devouring. It
was still his greatest weapon.
He could devour others’ dao and use their dao as reference for
his own. Wu Yu could have an entire corpus of experiences
regarding the breakthrough of a single tier and make that
experience his own, as if he had doubly understood the
information.
His real body and Heaven Devouring Avatar were a complete
whole now!
Wu Yu felt that the Ruyi Jingu Bang had a certain suppressing
effect on his devouring urge. Under that suppression, Wu Yu
grew more and more alert.
"There is a possibility that my devouring will no longer have a
limit. But if I continue to devour, the Ruyi Jingu Bang might
not be able to suppress it all either. This means that it can help
me to stay alert and devour more without turning into a monster
that loses all self-control."
After merging into a single body, Wu Yu felt that many things
had become much simpler.
Before, it had been the real body controlling the devouring
limit, and now it seemed like the Ruyi Jingu Bang was the one
doing so. Each time Wu Yu had the urge to devour, the
presence of the Ruyi Jingu Bang would cause him to feel a
curious feeling.
He believed that with this suppression, he could use the Ruyi
Jingu Bang more effectively than ever.
Besides, he could still gain the dao of others, their memories,
and everything else. He could also use Replicate and Immolate
immortal energy as well!
Cultivation level was the capacity, and strength was the
foundation!
"Besides the two great Longevity Immortal Arts, there have
also been breakthroughs in the four mystiques!"
Mortals would usually remove their past Great Dao Mystiques
upon reaching the sky palaces, and learn Heaven Dao
Mystiques anew. But Wu Yu did not need to.
"First, the Unshackled Doppelganger has reached the seventh
tier. I can already create 100,000 clones, and they are all
immortal clones. Each clone surpasses a 10th tier Dao
Querying cultivator. Perhaps a few dozen clones are enough to
deal with a 1-Yuan heavenly immortal already."
An army of 100,000 was incredible indeed.
It has to be said that the experiences of the Ancient Emperor,
as an immortal, had played a great part.
"And the Eyes of Fire and Gold. They have reached the sixth
tier, the Optics of Immortal Expanse. This is a Heaven Dao
Mystique purely suited for offense. It can burn immortals to a
crisp!
"The Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth have reached
the fourth tier as well! I can grow to 12 zhang! Five times the
strength! As for the minimum, I can be as small as a thumb."
This was shockingly strong. Five times the power, in addition
to Violent Art, meant that he could dish out a total of 10 times
his usual strength.
"Finally, the Somersault Cloud has reached the fourth tier,
Immortal Cloud Field. This is even more powerful."
Within the Immortal Cloud Field, the clouds were under Wu
Yu’s control, and the Somersault Cloud would grow huge.
Within this field, Wu Yu could slip in and out with ease, but
his enemies would be hard pressed to see him. They would be
suppressed, as though they had sunk into a swamp. Their
fighting ability would be severely compromised.
100,000 immortal clones! Optics of Immortal Expanse! Five
times the strength! Immortal Cloud Field!
If the Ancient Emperor had managed to control himself, he
would have closeted himself away and cultivated seriously,
only emerging when he was strong.
And now Wu Yu had won back everything.
He even had the 72 Transformations, the Ancient Emperor had
not taken them seriously.
And now, those Ground Demon Transformation Arts would
have to be trained by himself, without the help of the Great
Sage, Heaven’s Equal. It would be fairly difficult.
These abilities, in addition to the strength of the Heaven
Devouring Avatar, were the sum of what Wu Yu was capable
of, for now.
He needed some time to take it all in and digest it.
The Ancient Emperor was now dead.
His great revenge was achieved.
And the Ancient Emperor’s Immortal Spirit Decimating
Calamity Technique had not managed to finish Wu Yu off.
"I’ve truly gained from this disaster. At first, I had two bodies.
Thanks to the Ancient Emperor, they’ve merged, and their
abilities have come together as well. It’s even more complete
than before!
"This is a much better state than just the Heaven Devouring
Avatar. With just the Heaven Devouring Avatar, I would have
lost control sooner or later. And now, I have so many abilities,
and they’re refined so much!
"With this current body, my improvement speed can not only
the match of the Heaven Devouring Avatar, it can also be more
stable. And I won’t be discovered as easily!"
He had truly gained much from this ordeal.
The Ancient Emperor’s plunder had eventually resulted in
gifting him a transformation, while the Ancient Emperor
himself had been gifted death with no burial.
Wu Yu knelt on the floor and kowtowed several times.

"Master, vengeance is finally taken. You can rest easy."

After Ye Xixi found out inside the Floating Dreams Pagoda,
she cried a lot as well. She gave three kowtows and nine bows,
imploring her parents to rest easy now.
The Ancient Emperor was dead!
Wu Yu had overcome another huge hurdle in his life!
The entire Heavenly Domain seemed endless before him, free
for him to grow into.
His future was bright and unlimited!
Who was his better in the Heavenly Domain?
Thinking of the future, Wu Yu’s heart leaped. He could not wait
to fight against the Xuan immortals and immortal lords to reach
the top!
The 8,000 Sky Palaces were just so huge!
What sort of glamor awaited him in the Spirit of Heaven
Jeweled Hall?
How terrifying the Jade Emperor must be, with more than 2
billion years under his belt!
All was filled with hope!
"Great Sage, why would an immortal like you die?
"And why would you raise me up?
"If you want me to take revenge for you, I will definitely not
reject you. Because all that I have is yours. Without you, there
would be no Wu Yu!
"In this life, I will definitely accomplish your wishes."
Wu Yu could feel the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal’s will. He
was different from others. He was not the Ancient Emperor. He
was arrogant and unyielding, he was free and unfettered, he
took no law for granted, and he was true to his nature.
That was who Wu Yu idolized.
Wu Yu wished to become him.
He wanted to go to the highest sky palace and see for himself.
These were all of his ambitions. The Ancient Emperor was
dead, and his greatest goal was now accomplished.
And now, the next goal was one that he thought about night and
day. It made him restless. It was the one he deeply loved, Luo
Pin.
"I want to go and see her. She has just come to the sky palaces,
and I can’t let her be bullied."
The mystical dragon tribe was powerful, and she was a rare and
valued Primordial Immortal Dragon. But in the end, she was a
loner type. With so many baddies around, she might be bullied
if Wu Yu was not around to protect her. His heart ached at the
thought.
Wu Yu thought of Ao Yang. It made him detest the mystical
dragons from the sky palaces.
Wu Yu clearly remembered his contempt and condescending
manner to Wu Yu’s humble qualities.
From Ao Yang’s behavior, he could guess the attitude of the
entire mystical dragon tribe towards him. He knew that it would
be very difficult for him to be with Luo Pin.
But he would not give up. Now that the Ancient Emperor was
dead, he would definitely fight heart and soul for Luo Pin!
Before, he had missed out with Nangong Wei.
This time, he would not pass up Luo Pin.
But all of this required him to calm himself down. He would
have to amalgamate all the past memories and dao. He would
have to seriously tackle the two Longevity Immortal Arts.
After all, it had all been the Ancient Emperor’s work before.
He had many daos, and they were of great help in cultivating
these two immortal arts. Just Liu Yuanqing’s dao alone had
been a great help for Wu Yu.
Wu Yu was confident that he could improve the Bodhi
Immortal Dao Art greatly.
The One Bodhi Realm was achieved by the Ancient Emperor.
Wu Yu was able to reap what he hadn’t sown as he gained
enlightenment of the One Bodhi Realm easily.
The Bodhi immortal energy within the Bodhi Seed could be
used as he wished.
Although there was only a single Bodhi Seed, the immortal
energy within was immense.
Wu Yu started to research the second tier of the Bodhi Immortal
Dao Art.
In this aspect, he was definitely better than the Ancient
Emperor. This was because he possessed the dao of many
immortals. He could use the perspectives of several dozen
immortals to see the same issue.
"Perhaps a certain problem might be too difficult for me or even
dozens of immortals to solve. However, there is always
someone who has a solution for it.
"It is especially so for a 7-Yuan heavenly immortal like Liu
Yuanqing when tackling an issue for a 2-Yuan heavenly
immortal.
"Different perspectives add great value for me!"
This didn’t just apply to the Bodhi Immortal Dao Art. It also
applied to the Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha. His
ability to understand and perceive issues had reached a
frightening level.
This was equivalent to having several dozen people tackling the
same issue, among which was a 7-Yuan heavenly immortal.
Many issues he faced could be resolved swiftly.
Second tier, third tier, fourth tier!
Within the short span of a few days, he completely overcame
the first four tiers.
This was how the Ancient Emperor had advanced previously.
Using his knowledge as a 5-Yuan heavenly immortal, tackling
Dao Querying Realm questions would be easy and enabled him
to advance swiftly.
In terms of cultivation level, Wu Yu reached the fourth tier, the
Mortal Bodhi Realm, in just a few days. At this point, he was
similar to a 4-Yuan heavenly immortal.
As for the 27 Bodhi Seeds that he had formed, they appeared a
little dull as they didn’t have sufficient immortal energy to
support them.
Previously, the Heaven Devouring Avatar had enormous
energy remaining within its body. However, even when all that
energy was directed into the Bodhi Seeds and with Wu Yu
consuming the large number of Immortal Recovery Pills he
had, it was sufficient to light up all these Bodhi Seeds.
At this point, he was only left with 100 Immortal Recovery Pills
that he had obtained from Liu Yuanqing.
This was the toll fee that Wu Yu had kept aside to look for Luo
Pin.
"Once I get rid of all the immortal treasures that I have no use
for, I should be able to get some Immortal Recovery Pills."
As for the fifth tier of the Bodhi Immortal Dao Art, Wu Yu
studied it for a while and found it to be a little difficult. With
the immortals he had devoured to this point, he was still lacking
a little perception. He needed more time and couldn’t advance
as swiftly as before.
Moreover, the effects of Immortal Recovery Pills were limited.
Although the 27 Bodhi Seeds had lit up, they weren’t fully
filled. At this point, Wu Yu could choose to rely on devouring
to double his Bodhi immortal energy!
Cultivation level was just a frame and immortal energy was the
crux.
As for the Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha, Wu Yu had
studied it for several days. He had also fully understood the
scriptures for the first four tiers. However, the cultivation of the
Buddha art required a "starter." For example, the Scarlet Sky
Pill was the starter for creating the Fire Aspect Realm.
Therefore, even if he chose to devour, he could only strengthen
the buddha energy of his Fire Aspect Realm. However, he
couldn’t achieve the Water Aspect Realm.
He still required a starter for the Water Aspect Realm for him
to make an advancement in this field. Regardless, devouring
could still strengthen him. Wu Yu’s Fire Aspect Realm had not
reached its limit.
"I’m starting to realize that the devouring of dao is more
important than the devouring of power."
Devouring dao enabled him to tackle issues of cultivation level
from multiple aspects, while devouring power could only
strengthen him to a certain extent.
Perhaps this was the true objective of the Ruyi Jingu Bang
reconstructing his body. By limiting the Heaven Devouring
Avatar, he ended up becoming more perfect!
At the moment, he could stack the power of the Fire Aspect
Realm with the Mortal Bodhi Realm. It was just that the Bodhi
Seeds weren’t fully matured.
"With both Longevity Arts, four Heaven Dao Mystiques, and
the various abilities that I have devoured, I should be able to
match a 9-Yuan heavenly immortal!"
Wu Yu was confident that he was invincible among those
below the Nine Xuan Dao Realm.
Now he had substantial capital. Moreover, as he had regained
the Somersault Cloud, his ability to escape had also increased.
Wu yu was standing in front of a mirror and observing himself.
His black hair was the most surface layer. If one moved the
surface layer aside, one would see the silver hair.
As for his eyes, the red was hidden within the black. The
Heaven Devouring Avatar had not vanished but was similar to
having evolved into a more perfect state.
"The devouring of dao is the most frightening of all."
This was the conclusion Wu Yu came to.
Looking at himself in the mirror, his dominant, tall, and strong
build and sharpness were a little similar to the Unparalleled
Monkey King.
If he used his Immortal Ape Transformation, he would likely
resemble him more.
However, if he morphed into his white-haired, red-eyed form,
he would have a different demeanor.
Devilish, cold-blooded.
Therefore, he was a fusion of both currently and was a little
different from the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal.
Perhaps this was the difference between equalling heaven and
devouring heaven.
"Alright, stop getting excited over your looks shamelessly.
Now that you have become an immortal, when are you going
to search for a way for this lady here to be reborn? As gratitude,
it wouldn’t be an issue for me to ‘wait on you’ a few times."
"Don’t think too much about it. I’m not interested in you." Wu
Yu chuckled.
Now the grey clouds that were over him had dispersed.
Ming Long was safe and sound too.
"Aiya. So you have grown up and gotten arrogant? You would
refuse me when I offer myself to you?"
"I’m not interested in a spoiled brat like you," said Wu Yu.
"Damn. When my breasts were larger than your head, you
weren’t even born!"
Although they were just joking, Wu Yu noted it as his second
objective.
"I’ll look around, there’s bound to be a way. Rest assured. My
primordial spirit was so fragile and similar to you previously.
Yet I survived."
She was the equivalent of a tiny and weak immortal spirit.
Therefore, Wu Yu felt that this was possible.
"Alright, I shall be compassionate and be with you for a while
longer. Once I’m reborn, I have no time for you."
The truth was, Ming Long was really delighted. She was
delighted for Wu Yu.
If she wasn’t, she wouldn’t be joking.
Previously, when both of them were hiding in Ruyi Jingu Bang,
it was tragedious to stare at each other.
However, it was because of her companionship that Wu Yu had
tided over a difficult period till he had the opportunity to kill
the Ancient Emperor.
"What are your plans moving forward?"
"I’ll sell some immortal treasures to get some money before
heading to the Dragon Immortal Sky."
The Dragon Immortal Sky was the 2,000th level of heaven and
where the mystical dragon immortal beasts resided. Luo Pin
should be there.
"You are indeed going to find your girl! What a stinky man that
pays more attention to a lover than friends!" Ming Long wasn’t
too happy.
"Why not? She’s a lot better looking than you."
"Aiya. Are you trying to piss me off to my death? I’ve noted
this down. When the time comes, I’ll definitely hinder your
relationship. I’ll separate you guys. At that time, let’s see how
cocky you will get!"
"......"
Wu Yu took the looks of Liu Yuanqing before entering Snow
Feather City. Snow Feather City was just like before.
Immortal Su Sang had just been sent to her mentor and was
cultivating at this moment. When she returned, she would
realize that the Ancient Emperor and Xue Yi were gone.
Moreover, they were gone forever.

Perhaps she would search for both of them, but they would
never return.
However, this had nothing to do with Wu Yu. It was destined
that he would never encounter Immortal Su Sang again, whom
the Ancient Emperor had desired to be with dearly.
Even though he once thought she might be his mother.
Looking at her now, the spoiled daughter of an immortal
couldn’t be his mother....
The Ancient Emperor was really shameless to weave this lie.
As for the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi, they were still
cultivating with 10 times the amount of time in the Floating
Dreams Pagoda.
The Ancient Emperor was a pauper - there was barely anything
other than the Ancient Soul Tower in his Sumeru Pouch.
Although the Ancient Soul Tower was rather impressive, it still
couldn’t match the Ancient Immortal Tomahawk. Wu Yu had
the intention to sell both of them.
At this point, the Floating Dreams Pagoda was still shrouded in
mysteries. Even now, Wu Yu still couldn’t fully form a blood
bond with it.
And it only had 10 times the amount of time currently.
Both of them remained within the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
Using the immortal qi of the sky palaces and the resources of
immortals that Wu Yu provided, they were making vast
improvements.
When Wu Yu sold the immortal treasures and received roughly
2,000 Immortal Recovery Pills, they happened to withstand the
Heaven’s Thunder and successfully entered the fourth tier of
Dao Querying.
Moving forward, their improvements would be quicker.
After all, they were in the sky palaces. A little bit of immortal
qi would be equivalent to several tens of thousand units of
spiritual qi.
Immortal qi didn’t belong only to immortals. It didn’t have any
attributes, so Ye Xixi could use it for cultivation as well.
Immortal qi was also present in hell. It was just that the ghostly
immortals referred to it as ghostly spirits.
Wu Yu loitered around Snow Feather City for a little longer.
He hoped to find a starter he could use to create the Water
Aspect Realm.
With roughly 2,000 Immortal Recovery Pills, he should be able
to afford it.
"Who would have thought that all the immortal essences,
precious artifacts, and immortal kernels had spiritual marks?"
This was something that Wu Yu had discovered after arriving
here.
Immortal essences shared the same name that they had in the
mortal domain. They were plants that were grown between
heaven and earth.
Precious artifacts were referred to as precious treasures in the
mortal domain. They were created by the world. Examples
include metals, rocks, and precious materials. Basically, all
immortal treasures were made from precious artifacts.
There were also immortal kernels. In the mortal domain, they
were referred to as essences of heaven and earth. They were
formed naturally and had unique elemental attributes such as
water, fire, wind, thunder, and others. For example, Heaven’s
Thunder, Hellfire, and the Mighty Wind were all immortal
kernels.
The truth was that the Heaven’s Thunder, Hellfire, and the
Mighty Wind of the three dao crises had spiritual marks too. It
was just that mortals couldn’t see them.
The immortal essences, precious artifacts and immortal kernels
in the sky palaces all had at least 10 spiritual marks.
It was said that those with over 100 spiritual marks were formed
over a very long period and had immense strength. They were
referred to as ancient immortal essences, ancient precious
artifacts, and ancient immortal kernels.
Those immortal treasures that Wu Yu had were basically forged
from ordinary precious artifacts.
After searching for a few days in Snow Feather City, he finally
found it.
It was a kind of immortal kernel with 98 spiritual marks, very
close to being classified as an ancient immortal kernel.
Its name was the Universal Sea Wintry Water.
This was the core water of the oceans on the Universal Wintry
Sky Place that was on the 3,000th level of heaven.
Having been nourished for over 100,000 years by immortal qi,
98 spiritual marks were eventually formed.
Wu Yu was satisfied with the Universal Sea Wintry Water. It
shouldn’t be an issue to create the Water Aspect Realm with it.
The only problem was that it was too expensive, costing 2,000
Immortal Recovery Pills. Wu Yu had just received the same
amount after selling several immortal treasures. Yet he spent
them all and was left with 100 Immortal Recovery Pills the next
moment.
This was the toll fee for heading into the Dragon Immortal Sky.
The Dragon Immortal Sky was on the 2,000th level of heaven.
One needed to have the strength equivalent to a 9-Yuan
heavenly immortal to reach that place.
It just so happened that Wu Yu just made the cut.
Wu Yu knew that he had to be stronger before he headed to the
Dragon Immortal Sky.
Previously, Ao Yang had given him a reminder in the Jambu
Realm. He knew how difficult it would be to enter the mystical
dragon immortal beasts’ territory and claim Luo Pin as his
immortal dao companion.
This would be a much harder road compared to killing the
Ancient Emperor.
Therefore, he prepared to use the Universal Sea Wintry Water
to open the Water Aspect Realm.
The Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha would reach the
second tier.
His Bodhi Immortal Dao Art had already reached the fourth
tier.
Wu Yu had the experience of the Fire Aspect Realm that the
Ancient Emperor had developed with the Scarlet Sky Pill.
At the same time, he had the understanding of dozens of
immortals. He had already understood the scripture of the Nine
Aspects of the Venerable Buddha to the fourth tier.
"Previously, all I lacked was the starter and sufficient buddha
energy. Buddha energy can be supplemented later, but the
bridge into the Water Aspect Realm is built with this Universal
Sea Wintry Water."
Wu Yu had no money to rent an inn in Snow Feather City, so
all he could do was find a corner out in the wild and begin to
build.
This had an element of risk.
But with his real body’s mystiques back, he could deal with
many of the dangers.
"First, put the Universal Sea Wintry Water into your body, then
surround it with buddha energy. And then dissolve it into every
particle of your body, which are the black buddha images."
Wu Yu’s buddha energy was in every particle of his body,
which formed his physical body.
Therefore, buddha energy was his physical strength as well.
The Universal Sea Wintry Water was extremely icy. After it
entered his body, he was thoroughly chilled, turning purple
from the cold. Wu Yu’s entire body was shuddering from the
cold.
It was a type of pain that was difficult to endure. Ordinary
immortals would be unable to bear it.
However, Wu Yu’s physical body was strong enough to put this
immortal kernel with more than 90 spiritual marks into his
body. It was as if one had swallowed the dao calamities of
Mighty Wind or Hellfire themselves.
More, one would then go on to dissolve it into every molecule
of one’s being.
Buddha energy came from these particles, then the dissolved
bits of water would carry the Universal Sea Wintry Water
easily into the black buddha particles in Wu Yu’s body.
When each particle was infused with the Universal Sea Wintry
Water, there was an om sound, and a Water Aspect Realm was
created throughout his body!
It was like a new world had been born inside Wu Yu’s body.
There was a boundless sea inside it, and within the sea was Wu
Yu’s buddha energy.
Beside it, there was also a Fire Aspect Realm. There, the flames
burned strongly, and that, too, was a type of buddha energy for
Wu Yu. One was fire aspect Vajra buddha energy, the other
was water aspect Vajra buddha energy.
The former was ferocious and intense.
The latter was endless and resilient.
His buddha energy would only grow more and more complete,
until it became Nine Aspects Vajra buddha energy!
At that time, he would have nine aspect realms in his body and
possess nine different types of buddha energy. When his body
burst into action, all nine types would merge as one, forming a
perfect power. The limitless nature of the nine aspects lay in
the wealth of buddha energy behind it!
After a few days, Wu Yu succeeded.
His buddha energy was still quite weak in the Fire and Water
Aspect Realms, and he could not be considered to have 2-Yuan
worth of buddha energy. However, Wu Yu’s greatest treasure
was devouring. As long as he devoured, he could use his two
realms to increase his physical body to a terrifyingly strong
level.
Right now, his physical body was at the second tier, while his
immortal spirit was at the fourth tier. With so many mighty
mystiques, he had no equal below the Nine Xuan Dao Realm.
After this was accomplished, Wu Yu finally stopped. He was
very satisfied with his two-in-one body, and this was probably
the work of the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
His immortal spirit would occasionally look up at the Ruyi
Jingu Bang. Its presence allowed Wu Yu to keep his mind clear.
He had not felt the urge to devour in a while now.
It was as if he had full control of it.
This was a good thing. If he appeared before the mystical
dragons in the Heaven Devouring Avatar’s body and demanded
to see Luo Pin, they would definitely cast him out.
But now he looked like just an ordinary heavenly immortal.
"Time to go!"
Wu Yu could not wait anymore.
He went to the Well of Eternal Life.
After paying 100 Immortal Recovery Pills, he again entered the
Well of Eternal Life.
This time, he wanted to go to the 2,000th level of heaven.
Exactly level 2,000.
This would be a long journey.
After Wu Yu entered this time, there was no disturbance with
the Well of Eternal Life either. Therefore, he was even more
sure that the first strange encounter had nothing to do with him.
Even now, there were still many people discussing it.
Inside the Well of Eternal Life, the tension was palpable.
Everyone hustled along their journey, especially those who
traveled alone.
Some were going up, while others were going down.
Wu Yu continued to charge onwards. He was still accustomed
to being near the well wall, where he could see the vast worlds
outside.
Level after level of heaven.
About half a month had passed, and he had already seen a
thousand levels of heaven. Each level of heaven had countless
immortals, and the sheer immensity of the sky palaces kept him
marveling.
Many immortals had come from the mortal domain, but after
so many years, many immortals had forgotten what it was like
in the mortal domain.
After all, the mortal domain was but a very, very small fraction
of their entire lifespan.
Immortals who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years
would find it very difficult to remember those first few hundred
years.
If not for the sheer length of time, there would not be so many
immortals gathered in the sky palaces either.
At about 1,500 levels of heaven, Wu Yu began to feel the
pressure from the Well of Eternal Life.
As he continued to head up, he felt like he was moving through
mud.
The higher he went, the harder it got. Until finally he needed to
use his immortal energy and buddha energy, straining to go
higher.
He gritted his teeth and pressed on!
When he looked up, he felt how almighty the Jade Emperor
was. He was not only crushing Wu Yu - all the immortals who
were challenging their limits were being suppressed.
It was like a spirit design that permeated the entirety of the
8,000 Sky Palaces, pressing down on the heads of each
immortal, telling them: Rigid Limit.
That’s right, the limit was rigid.
All the immortals were divided into different levels, and only
the strongest of them deserved to stand at the top of the tower.
As for the heavenly immortals, they were the most numerous.
They swarmed around the base and had the most average of
immortal qi and scarcest of resources. They were often bullied.
If you wanted things to change, you could only claw your way
upwards!
As for the Well of Eternal Life, it was what drew the
boundaries.
Who was an elite immortal? Who was an ordinary heavenly
immortal? The Well of Eternal Life determined all.
This was also why Wu Yu was interested in challenging it. He
did not believe in cowardice.
Within the Well of Eternal Life, everyone wished to continue
ascending forever, finally reaching the Spirit of Heaven
Jeweled Hall.
"When standing there, one can look down on the whole
Heavenly Domain.
"If I can reach there in this lifetime, and no longer have all these
Xuan immortals, immortal lords, and immortal kings above me,
I can change my fate at will.

“If I can stand there and have eternal life like the Jade Emperor,
that would be the greatest."
This was what Wu Yu looked forward to immensely. It was
also his ultimate goal. He had this wish.
Before, he chased longevity. Now, he chased eternal life.
Moreover, he would stand at the pinnacle of the Heavenly
Domain and be invulnerable.
"Of course, that’s too far from where I am. I can only dream for
now."
He was still struggling towards the 2,000th level of heaven.
The 2,000th level of heaven, the Dragon Immortal Sky, was a
unique place.
It was territory that belonged solely to the mystical dragon
immortal beasts. As long as one was a mystical dragon
immortal beast, even a newly ascended 1-Yuan heavenly
immortal could be here.
This was a heavenly rule from the Jade Emperor himself.
However, other immortals would need to be 9-Yuan heavenly
immortals and above in order to reach it. Therefore, more than
99% of the people in the Dragon Immortal Sky were mystical
dragon immortal beasts.
Other immortals could enter by obtaining a Dragon Immortal
Pass. It allowed one to stay in Dragon Immortal Sky for 100
years at most. After which, the pass would lose its effect, and
one would have to leave.
If you wished to stay, then you would have to fork out a huge
amount to cover the "staying fee." The longer you stayed, the
larger the amount you paid. All in all, it was not worth it.
Therefore, if there was no special reason, immortals seldom
chose to take up residence at the Dragon Immortal Sky. After
all, there were many other places within the 8,000 Sky Palaces.
Wu Yu fought against the Well of Eternal Life’s pressure,
forcing his way upwards past the resistance.
"Almost there."
He knew that Luo Pin was at the Dragon Immortal Sky.
"Mystical dragon immortal beasts that attain immortality have
a mystical dragon who goes to escort them personally to the
Dragon Immortal Sky. This is unlike ordinary immortals, who
have to ascend by themselves. When they reach the Ascension
Platform at the first level of heaven, no one cares about them."
This was the immortal beasts’ way. It was said that other
immortal beasts did the same as well. For example, the
phoenixes. In the future, if Nangong Wei managed to reach
immortalhood, she, too, would be escorted into their folds in
heaven.
After all, she was an eternal phoenix, which was also an elite
bloodline amongst the phoenix immortal beasts. It was as
valuable as a Primordial Immortal Dragon.
1,800th level of heaven!
1,900th level of heaven!
At this point, he was already drenched in sweat, and his breath
came in ragged pants. Many people stopped to rest, even at the
cost of paying 100 Immortal Recovery Pills.
But Wu Yu persisted. The Dragon Immortal Sky was indeed
not easy to reach. And it was scary to think that there were still
6,000 levels of heaven above. But Wu Yu was prepared for the
difficulty, and he embraced it consciously.
To meet her!
For the vow of meeting in the sky palaces!
2,000th level of heaven!
"Finally."
Wu Yu was bathed in sweat, but he broke into a relieved smile.
"How touching. In order to copulate once, you charged from
the mortal domain to the sky palaces. This story is finally
nearing its conclusion," the Full Moon of Nanshan whooped.
"This is a love story that would make the ghostly immortals
weep!" For a frolicking lover like himself, he naturally did not
know what "love" was.
However, it did not matter. Love was not a prerequisite for
cultivation. In fact, a bad romance might even crush some.
But Wu Yu had made his choice, and he would not back down.
Right now, he could think of nothing else but her, and he was
in no mood to even cultivate.
"But the Dragon Immortal Sky is so huge. How difficult will it
be to find a mystical dragon who has just ascended? I had better
be prepared for a difficult journey!"
Wu Yu left the Well of Eternal Life.
"Another immortal? Don’t come and trample about our Dragon
Immortal Sky for no reason. Take it, take it!" When he arrived,
a Dragon Immortal Pass was thrust into his hands.
"Get out of the way." There were a few mystical dragon
immortal beasts at the mouth of the Well of Eternal Life, and
they were in dragon form, shooing Wu Yu away.
As expected, they did not welcome immortals in their territory.
The Dragon Immortal Sky was an exception. Although it was
the 2,000th level of heaven, the territory was exceptionally
huge and not any smaller than the Green Lotus Sky.
It could be seen as the waist area of the 8,000 Sky Palaces that
was wider in circumference than others.
Therefore, the borders of the Dragon Immortal Sky stretched
far and wide. Standing at the edge and looking up, one could
even see the highest point of the 8,000 Sky Palaces.
Wu Yu was almost chased out of the Palace of Eternal Life.
Those that emerged from the Well of Eternal Life were, 99%
of the time, mystical dragons that had returned from other
palaces. Only 1% of the people were outsiders.
Moreover, most of them maintained their mystical dragon
forms. Therefore, it was easy for other immortals to tell with a
single glance.
At least at the Palace of Eternal Life, Wu Yu didn’t see any
immortals.
Out of the Palace of Eternal Life and next to the Well of Eternal
Life, it was still the core of the Dragon Immortal Sky.
Wu Yu looked around him. The immortal qi on the 2,000th
level of heaven really wasn’t in the same tier as the bottom 200
levels or so.
The density had increased by at least 10 times.
Even the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi, who were in the
Floating Dreams Pagoda, could clearly feel the difference.
This was also the reason why immortals would want to head to
higher levels of heaven.
Immortal qi was an important factor for their continued growth.
Looking across, Wu Yu could see flying mystical dragons
everywhere. Compared to when he was in the Dragon Palace
of the Four Seas, the view was several times more majestic!
All the mystical dragons here were true immortal beasts of
higher class. Moreover, they were everywhere. Many species
were unbelievable, and there were in a myriad of colors.
For example, there were mystical dragons with golden wings,
mystical dragons with three horns, and mystical dragons that
were entirely red and blazing in scorching flames....
Any type that one could imagine could be seen here.
Over long periods of time, if one were to do a detailed
classification, there might be several hundreds of thousands of
species of mystical dragons.
As they were immortal beasts, they became a lot stronger as
they grew. Therefore, all of them had an air of pride around
them. When they saw immortals like Wu Yu, they often looked
at them with disdain.
This was a giant world that belonged to dragons.
At the faraway place where clouds and mist shrouded Wu Yu’s
view, lots of mystical dragons had their immortal residences
and cities built.
Wu Yu looked towards the east.
"I think Golden Fate Dragon City is in that direction. It’s ruled
by the Golden Fate Dragon King. There’s an Admitting
Immortal Palace there, which is responsible for leading and
receiving mystical dragons from the mortal domain. The
mystical dragons in the Admitting Immortal Palace have the
right to enter the mortal domain to welcome the mystical
dragons.”
That was all that Liu Yuanqing knew.
"Luo Pin was definitely brought to the Admitting Immortal
Palace. I’m not sure if she will still be in Golden Fate Dragon
City, but there might be information on her in the Admitting
Immortal Palace.
"The shame is that ordinary Message Talismans don’t work in
the sky palaces. Their qualities are likely too low to transmit
messages in a world like this. Moreover, I didn’t leave any
Immortal Message Talismans with her."
Otherwise, Wu Yu might’ve been able to find her by sending
her a message once he arrived in this place.
Wu Yu couldn’t wait to enter Golden Fate Dragon City to see
her. In fact, he was feeling a little anxious. He was pondering
what he should say to her to make him appear more humorous
when they eventually met....
Wu Yu moved swiftly towards Golden Fate Dragon City.
With the Dragon Immortal Pass he had, he could stay in the
Dragon Immortal Sky for 100 years. That should be sufficient
to find Luo Pin.
The Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi had 10 times the
amount of time in the Floating Dreams Pagoda. As they
progressed, they would likely reach the point where they had to
withstand the second dao calamity, Hellfire.
Finally, Wu Yu arrived in Golden Fate Dragon City.
In terms of size, Golden Fate Dragon City was probably 500
times larger than the Immortal’s Capital!
This was because most mystical dragons moved around in their
true forms and rarely transformed into their human forms. Each
one of them occupied a large area.
The palaces and inns in Golden Fate Dragon City were rather
huge as they had to accommodate mystical dragons with larger
body sizes.
Standing from afar, Wu Yu could see powerful mystical
dragons within. Most that lived here were at the level of Xuan
immortals. In fact, there was a number of Immortal Lord Realm
immortal lords.
When Wu Yu got closer, he realized that the number of
immortal lords at the Immortal Lord Realm was pretty large.
Those that flew in the sky were largely immortal lords.
Basically, Wu Yu felt like he couldn’t possibly put up any
resistance against them.
Evidently, his current strength would place him among the
weakest in the Dragon Immortal Sky.
"These mystical dragons have lived for at least several tens of
thousands to even hundreds of thousands of years to reach
where they are. Compared to them, I’m still a little too weak."
Wu Yu could only comfort himself. Regardless, he knew it
would be arduous to find Luo Pin and survive in a place like
this.
"This is a world that belongs to the strong, and I’m just the
weak."
The weak should keep a low profile.
He wanted to enter by the city gates. The stationed mystical
dragons were all at the Xuan Immortal Realm, and there were
also immortal lord commanders. It was just that they weren’t
doing the checks at the city gates. For mystical dragons that
entered, they largely wouldn’t care.
However, when Wu Yu arrived, the stationed mystical dragon
could tell that he wasn’t a mystical dragon with a single glance.
He demanded immediately, "Take out your Dragon Immortal
Pass, stand straight, and don’t move." He wanted to see if the
Dragon Immortal Pass had exceeded 100 years. If that was the
case, he would be brought to pay a fine.
Wu Yu naturally wasn’t afraid as he had just gotten the Dragon
Immortal Pass. When the other party took his Dragon Immortal
Pass and had a glance, he smirked and said sarcastically, "You
sure are daring to come here after you just got your Dragon
Immortal Pass. Get in quickly and don’t hold me up!"
Although he wasn’t kind, Wu Yu knew he didn’t have the
strength to serve a good attitude from him. In the sky palaces,
the concept of “experts ruled” was even more prominent. This
vast world was different from what Wu Yu had envisioned in
the past.
He arrived in Golden Fate Dragon City, a world that belonged
to the mystical dragons. There were palaces and residences
built specifically for mystical dragons. At the same time, he
was dazzled to see a myriad of dragons flying in the sky.
"Admitting Immortal Palace." Wu Yu’s objective was clear.
He couldn’t find Luo Pin in a large city like this. Even if he
were to ask around, others would likely ignore him. Therefore,
he chose to head to the Admitting Immortal Palace to see if he
could sneak in and search for information on Luo Pin.
There should be registration on mystical dragons brought here
from the mortal domain.
The Admitting Immortal Palace was at the eastern side of
Golden Fate Dragon City. Just the Admitting Immortal Palace
alone was the size of the Immortal’s Capital. There were
several thousand dragons tasked with the responsibility to
receive and lead newly ascended mystical dragons.
As Wu Yu travelled along the huge streets, there were indeed
few immortals. The sky was occupied by mystical dragons
flying. When he used the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and
Earth to shrink his body to the size of one’s thumb, he was no
different from a mosquito to the mystical dragons.
Therefore, no one took notice of him.
Soon, Wu Yu arrived at the Admitting Immortal Palace. He
realized that the so-called Admitting Immortal Palace was, in
fact, a giant hemisphere. There was only a single circular
entrance on the side facing the sky. Mystical dragons would
enter by flying, and there were several dozen mystical dragons
guarding the entrance.
Wu Yu took a look and couldn’t help but furrow his brows.
Based on his judgement, most of them were middle-aged
mystical dragons that had cultivated for at least four or five
yuan. That was the equivalent of 600,000 years! Most of them
should be stronger than 6-Xuan immortals and even close to the
Immortal Lord Realm.
Any one of them blowing a gust of breath at Wu Yu could send
him flying away.
"Moreover, there are elite immortal designs." The Admitting
Immortal Palace was a place restricted from outsiders. In fact,
many mystical dragons were not allowed in. This was because
it concerned the future of mystical dragons. Therefore, the
security was air-tight.

"It would be too risky to jump in with the Somersault Cloud, as

I can’t control where I would land. There are likely numerous
immortal designs within that can annihilate me before I get in."
It was too risky to attempt it.
Wu Yu still hadn’t reached the point where he had to take the
risk.
"The truth is, you don’t have to rush. Why don’t you wait a
little longer and find out more about this place?" the Full Moon
of Nanshan suggested.
Getting anxious would indeed not help the situation.
This was a world of mystical dragons. Although Wu Yu had
insane talent and limitless potential, he had just arrived in the
8,000 Sky Palaces after all. His strength was definitely not
considered anything in this place.
"Alright."
Wu Yu also understood that getting anxious wouldn’t help.
He decided to walk around and ask about the place. Although
this was the territory of the mystical dragons, there would
definitely be someone who would be willing to speak to him.
Now, unless they were foes, people who had committed
heinous crimes, or existences that wanted to kill him, Wu Yu
wouldn’t take the initiative to kill others and devour them.
This wasn’t something that he would do when he was calm.
He kept his composure and stayed around to observe. From the
looks and conversations of some mystical dragons, Wu Yu was
able to get some information.
Ordinary mystical dragons wouldn’t have heard information
about a Primordial Immortal Dragon.
There were mystical dragons brought from the mortal domain
to the Admitting Immortal Palace each day.
He couldn’t get much information, as there were too few
mystical dragons who were willing to speak with him.
After 10 days in Golden Fate Dragon City, Wu Yu was getting
a little restless.
"With those immortal designs and Xuan immortals guards,
barging in is not possible. The only way would be to jump in,
but the risk is too high." He was a little hesitant.
All those that he could possibly ask in Golden Fate Dragon
City, he had already asked. There were indeed none that had
heard about a Primordial Immortal Dragon. In fact, most
mystical dragons didn’t even know about Primordial Immortal
Dragons.
Regardless, Ao Yang, the one that once appeared in the Jambu
Realm, would know.
Just as Wu Yu was wracking his brain and didn’t have a plan,
he suddenly saw a glimmer of hope!
He saw Ao Yang! He was leaving the Admitting Immortal
Palace!
"So he’s someone from the Admitting Immortal Palace! In fact,
Luo Pin might very well have been brought here by him.
Therefore, there’s a high chance that he knows where Luo Pin
is!"
Wu Yu got excited immediately.
However, he could still recall the humiliation and scolding that
Ao Yang once hurled at him. In the Jambu Realm, he had
humiliated Wu Yu and stood aside as he watched the Ancient
Emperor kill Wu Yu.
One could say that Wu Yu’s anger towards him wouldn’t be
any lower than his anger towards the Ancient Emperor for that
day.
Looking at how it was, Ao Yang might just be an ordinary
member of the Admitting Immortal Palace.
The Admitting Immortal Palace was in charge of various major
mystical dragon tribes in the mortal domain.
Wu Yu was pondering ways that he could question Ao Yang
alone.
Where had Luo Pin gone? How was she?
Since Wu Yu had a few interactions with him, he could only
resort to the oldest trick.
He wanted to lead Ao Yang out of Golden Fate Dragon City
and to a deserted area.
He couldn’t possibly face Ao Yang directly in the city. If Ao
Yang wanted to kill him and they were surrounded by other
mystical dragons, it would be troublesome.
There were too many experts around.
Moreover, this was the territory of the other party.
Ao Yang was probably on a break right now. After he exited,
he didn’t head back to the Admitting Immortal Palace directly.
Instead, he stayed in his residence to cultivate.
Wu Yu followed him until he was right outside the residence.
The residence was shrouded in immortal designs and therefore
he couldn’t enter. If he jumped in directly, he would definitely
be noticed.
Nonetheless, Immortal Message Talismans could penetrate and
Wu Yu could designate the location.
Wu Yu used several Immortal Message Talismans to lock on to
the location before leaving Golden Fate Dragon City.
In the mountain range of the Dragon Immortal Sky, Wu Yu
found a rather hidden valley that few mystical dragons would
pass by.
He hid himself in the vicinity. Compared to the vast and
colossal mountain range, he was just an insignificant being.
After which, he started sending Immortal Message Talismans
towards Ao Yang’s residence.
"It has been many years since we met. Now that I’m back, I’m
definitely going to surprise you. Let’s meet up. Follow the trail
of the Immortal Message Talisman to find me."
At the end, he signed off as "An old pal."
Wu Yu was just trying his luck. Now that he had found Ao
Yang, it shouldn’t be that difficult to meet him.
He released the Immortal Message Talisman and continued
waiting.
He knew that Ao Yang had definitely received the Immortal
Message Talisman. However, whether or not he would come
was a different matter.
Nonetheless, Wu Yu had a number of Immortal Message
Talismans and wasn’t in a hurry.
After a day, he sent another message when he didn’t see Ao
Yang.
"So you are afraid to meet me? Ao Yang! I’m surprised you are
such a coward!"
The truth was, Wu Yu was just deliberately mystifying himself.
Considering that Ao Yang was an aloof, domineering, and
short-tempered person, he might just fall for it.
"How pitiful! To think that you were a wimp! Haha."
Wu Yu had already named him directly. Therefore, he
definitely knew someone was targeting him.
"How did I even lose to trash like you in the past? Now you
aren’t even qualified to bring me my shoes."
He knew Ao Yang wasn’t a Xuan immortal yet. At the very
most, he was a 9-Yuan heavenly immortal. He was probably an
errand dragon at the lowest echelons of the Admitting Immortal
Palace and Golden Fate Dragon City. In no way would he be
anyone with influence or status.
Therefore, Wu Yu became daring. At the very least, as long as
they weren’t in Golden Fate Dragon City, it would be easy for
him to escape. With a single leap of the Somersault Cloud, Ao
Yang definitely wouldn’t be able to find him.
Moreover, he had lots of tricks up his sleeve currently.
Finally, on the fourth day, Wu Yu could see a flaming dragon
approaching from the direction of Golden Fate Dragon City.
The flaming dragon had nine talons and a cloud of murderous
intent surrounding him.
When he arrived in the location above Wu Yu, he bellowed, "Ju
Yuandao! I know it’s you that’s hiding and resorting to such
underhand means. Since you dare to look for me, why don’t
you show yourself and have an open match with me?! Don’t let
me look down on you!"
Wu Yu laughed silently. He had never expected Ao Yang to
really have "an old pal" like this.
The truth was, everyone would have someone they had
defeated. It was natural. Wu Yu had made the right bet.
At this moment, he didn’t act immediately. Instead, he looked
around to see if Ao Yang had brought anyone with him. At the
very least, he couldn’t see anyone in the vicinity. This reassured
Wu Yu a little.
"Come out, now!"
Ao Yang landed in the valley and surveyed the surroundings
with his huge eyes. The surrounding trees that were set ablaze
were all immortal essences!
"What is there to be anxious about? Old pal." Wu Yu released
the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth and walked out
from the depths of the valley to face Ao Yang directly.
Ao Yang was clearly stumped and questioned, "You aren’t Ju
Yuandao. Are you an immortal? What’s your objective for
drawing me here? I don’t recognize you."
He wasn’t too anxious now. This was because judging from Wu
Yu’s immortal energy, Ao Yang knew Wu Yu wasn’t
particularly strong. At the very most, Wu Yu was a 9-Yuan
heavenly immortal, similar to him.
Moreover, when an immortal was at the same cultivation level
as a mystical dragon, the immortal wouldn’t be a match for the
mystical dragon.
"You are right. You are swarmed with work and it’s natural that
you can’t recognize me. However, why don’t you take a closer
look and see if you can remember anything?"
Ao Yang had truly not thought that Wu Yu was anything. To
him, a mortal was as insignificant as an ant.
Ao Yang was a little infuriated and felt like he had been fooled.
He widened his eyes and took a closer look at Wu Yu.
Gradually, Wu Yu could see the surprise on Ao Yang’s face.
In the end, he bellowed, "I remember you now! I saw you in
the mortal domain! Near a dragon palace that was getting
destroyed. You are the human from a Lesser Realm whose body
was snatched by an immortal! Wait, since you were successful
in stealing the body, shouldn’t you be the immortal from the
Lesser Realm?"
Wu Yu was surprised he saw him as Ancient Emperor.
Nonetheless, this didn’t matter.
"Even if you did successfully snatch his body, you are just an
immortal from a Lesser Realm. What reason do you have for
looking for me when you should be stationed in the Lesser
Realm? Are your brains boiled? Do you believe you can rise up
in sky palaces just because you changed your physical body?"
The truth was, he could sense that Wu Yu was much stronger
than before. Nonetheless, he still looked down on Wu Yu’s
status. A guardian immortal of a Lesser Realm would be among
the group that had it worst in the sky palaces.
Ao Yang was pissed off and felt like he had made a trip in vain.
In fact, he even thought of bashing Wu Yu to vent his
frustration.
Wu Yu kept his composure. He didn’t care whom Ao Yang
assumed he was. He questioned, "I’m here to ask you if you
brought the Primordial Immortal Dragon to this place. I would
like to ask where is she currently."
Upon hearing Wu Yu, Ao Yang was stumped initially.
Immediately after, he smirked and said, "Fuck off! Why would
I tell a trash immortal about the matters of the mystical
dragons? I don’t have a good impression of you after I saw you
in the mortal domain. And now you’ve shown up before me to
show off your strength? Are you really tired of living? Get lost
and never let me see you again! Trash!"
He had a bad temper and had encountered frustrating matters in
recent times. Now that he felt like Wu Yu had fooled him, he
was even more furious. Not attacking Wu Yu was compassion
on his end.
He turned around and wanted to leave.
Wu Yu naturally wouldn’t allow him to.
He said, "I just want to know where she is. As remuneration, I
can give you a gift. What about this Ancient Immortal
Tomahawk?"
Wu Yu retrieved the Ancient Immortal Tomahawk.
Ao Yang’s expression changed instantly. He exclaimed in
shock, "Why would you have an immortal treasure of this
grade? This is definitely a top-quality immortal treasure!"
"Tell me where she is and this is yours," Wu Yu said solemnly.
Ao Yang’s face darkened. He stared at Wu Yu for a while
before nodding and saying, "Hand it over and I’ll tell you."
He thought Wu Yu would hesitate, but Wu Yu didn’t. He was
decisive and threw the Ancient Immortal Tomahawk towards
him. Ao Yang put the Ancient Immortal Tomahawk away in
the first instant.
"Where is she?"
Ao Yang snorted and said, "In your mom’s ass. Get lost!
Trash!"
He was fooling around with Wu Yu. All he wanted was the
Ancient Immortal Tomahawk, he wasn’t going to tell Wu Yu
where she was.
Wu Yu hated him from the beginning, let alone after what
transpired now. Witnessing his disgusting acts, Wu Yu could
easily tell how he usually was.

Once he got the Ancient Immortal Tomahawk, he wanted to

leave.
However, there was no way Wu Yu would allow him to leave!
"Optics of Immortal Expanse!"
This was the quickest offensive mystique that Wu Yu had.
From both of his eyes, two columns of blinding light burst
forth. The two columns of golden light shot out like spears and
pierced Ao Yang when he turned around. Two large, bloody
holes were opened on Ao Yang’s body instantly.
If he had not dodged in time, Wu Yu would have severed him
into three segments.
Ao Yang looked at his body with disbelief and bellowed, "You
dare to attack me? You are courting your doom!"
He was a Nine-Talons Scintillating Sun Dragon, which could
be considered to be among the top-end of the mystical dragon
species. In the future, he still had large room for improvements.
Becoming an immortal lord wouldn’t be particularly difficult!
Yet an insignificant immortal from the mortal domain had
dared to injure him! This definitely infuriated him!
"Raging Flames of Nine Suns!"
In the split second, he cast his Natural Mystique. Flames
engulfed all nine of his claws and then a giant golden fireball
coalesced into shape on each claw. He charged towards Wu Yu,
and wherever he crossed, even the mountain was reduced to
ashes!
Hu!
Wu Yu was emotionless. All of a sudden, his body sublimated
into black mist and formed a giant, black vortex. The next
instant, the nine huge, golden fireballs were devoured and the
vortex started spinning at high speed. Immediately after, nine
larger, pitch-black fireballs were spewed out!
This was the Return of the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast!
In a hurry to defend against the explosions of nine fireballs, Ao
Yang was covered in bloody wounds. He had lost terribly in
their very first exchange. He looked at his devastated body and
couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
"How can this be?! How can a meagre immortal be capable of
this!?"
Wu Yu’s attacks were swift and ferocious, completely
exceeding his imagination!
"Nine Levels of Purgatory!" Wu Yu morphed into his human
form and cast Nine Levels of Purgatory without a second of
delay. The Nine Levels of Purgatory had Ao Yang restrained
tightly from his head to tail. When Wu Yu reached out with his
hand, the Nine Levels of Purgatory was slowly sapping vitality
from Ao Yang’s body.
Ao Yang’s eyes widened and he stared at him with blood-shot
eyes. He screamed suddenly out, "You are looking for the
Primordial Immortal Dragon! You aren’t that insignificant
immortal! You are the one whose body he wanted to steal!"
He finally recalled it. How intelligent! However, this made it
even more unlikely for Wu Yu to spare him.
"I have given you the opportunity to speak, but you didn’t grab
it." Wu Yu smirked.
Ao Yang was terrified and could feel his scalp go numb. He
naturally knew how terrifying Wu Yu was. At this moment, he
berated, "Big Brother, come save me, quick!"
Wu Yu had not expected reinforcements to be hiding. Ao Yang
hadn’t come alone. Obviously, the reinforcements were hiding
in a faraway place. Perhaps he didn’t think anything would go
wrong. When the battle first broke out, he had started flying
over and finally arrived at this moment. Wu Yu raised his head
and saw another Nine-Talons Scintillating Sun Dragon.
However, he was stronger than Ao Yang, probably at the Nine
Xuan Dao Realm. Fortunately, he was at the first or second tier
of the Nine Xuan Dao Realm at most.
"Let him go and I’ll let your corpse be complete." The other
Nine-Talons Scintillating Sun Dragon, Ao Ding, stared at Wu
Yu with icy-cold eyes. His murderous intent was surging as he
saw his younger brother suffering such severe injuries.
"Why would I need a full corpse? Initially, I could have spared
his life. Now that you have shown up, I can only send him to
the afterlife." Wu Yu raised his head and smiled.
"YOU DARE?" Ao Ding roared.
What he saw was Wu Yu suddenly transforming into the
Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast, torching Ao Yang to death
with the Nine Levels of Purgatory, and devouring Ao Yang in
full.
The incomplete Bodhi Seeds, the Fire Aspect Realm, and the
Water Aspect Realm were rising swiftly to their limits. In fact,
Wu Yu had lots of remaining energy that was piling up!
Naturally, he also inherited the memories, dao arts, and more.
This was the first mystical dragon that Wu Yu had devoured. It
was not surprising to him now why the Heaven Devouring Evil
Lord was so fond of devouring mystical dragons. This was
because the essences of their flesh and blood were immense and
exceeded those of all other living creatures.
If he didn’t devour him, Wu Yu wouldn’t know where Luo Pin
was. He also wouldn’t survive at the hands of Ao Ding.
Wu Yu had cultivated 27 Bodhi Seeds in his immortal spirit.
And then, after he reached the Water Aspect Realm, he had
built the framework, but he still needed a lot of energy.
If he just used true immortal medicines and immortal essences
to get this energy, it would cost him a fortune.
Whereas devouring was much stronger and purer.
At this moment, the Nine Aspects Vajra buddha energy was
flooding through Wu Yu’s body. The Bodhi immortal energy
was also expanding! All of this was absorbed from devouring
Ao Yang.
A mystical dragon’s mighty body definitely produced amazing
results.
At the same time, Ao Yang’s dao, memories, mystiques, and
immortal techniques - all of it was also acquired by Wu Yu. It
was all now part of him.
Prior to this, the strongest immortal that Wu Yu had devoured
had been Liu Yuanqing. Liu Yuanqing’s knowledge could not
compare to Ao Yang’s. Wu Yu had his eyes opened in many
aspects.
Although he was still using Water Aspect Realm buddha
energy and the Mortal Bodhi Realm’s immortal energy, Wu Yu
was now much stronger than before. He even had a lot of
leftover energy that had not been converted into Bodhi
immortal energy or Nine Aspects Vajra buddha energy. Wu Yu
stored it all in the black buddhas in the particles of his body.
The black buddhas seemed to be able to store an infinite amount
of energy. Once Wu Yu had new Bodhi Seeds or more aspect
realms, he could convert this stored energy into buddha energy
and immortal energy.
This was how frightfully strong Wu Yu’s new body was. It had
not only preserved Wu Yu’s cultivation level, but also his
devouring ability.
But Wu Yu realized something. Once he had finished
devouring, he noted that his own immortal spirit was slowly
changing into a Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast. After
devouring Ao Yang, his immortal spirit grew black scales, and
his eyes were turning red as well.
His spirit and will had also grown more violent, a hunger
beginning to gnaw at his insides.
However, the Ruyi Jingu Bang seemed to be having an effect
on him. Wu Yu felt a strong suppression on him. This made his
immortal spirit calm down and turn back from the Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast into human form.
"This means that the Ruyi Jingu Bang is helping me to suppress
the urge to devour!
"The more this body devours, the more susceptible I will be to
the primal urges of the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast. If I
were to continue devouring, I would eventually lose myself.
"But after devouring, the Ruyi Jingu Bang will help me to come
back to my senses.
"And as long as I do not devour in quick succession, to the point
where I pass its suppressive limits, there will be no problem.
And if I do pass that limit, and it can no longer hold the urges
back, then my new body will probably succumb and become
the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast. There will be no turning
back."
This meant that the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast was still
a very large portion of his new body.
Wu Yu could feel the speed of the Ruyi Jingu Bang’s
suppression. It was probably affected by how much he had
devoured. After devouring Ao Yang, he might need a few days
to fully recover.
But at this time, seeing his little brother killed and devoured by
Wu Yu, Ao Ding flew into a rage. While Wu Yu was still
digesting, he had already attacked.
"You dare to kill a mystical dragon immortal beast here in the
Dragon Immortal Sky?! Die!"
He flew into a berserk rage.
Wu Yu had not forgotten that he was at another realm entirely,
the Nine Xuan Dao Realm.
The Longevity Immortal Realm mainly cultivated one’s body
and immortal spirit. In terms of dao, there was no great
breakthrough until the Nine Xuan Dao Realm, when one would
materialize dao into immortal dao marks. That was a
completely different story.
Wu Yu knew that immortal dao marks had great utility. They
could be paired with various attacks, transforming them with
the imbued strength of dao!
Ao Ding’s aura was completely different from Ao Yang’s - he
was like a higher life form.
"Dragons’ Congregation!"
He suddenly appeared before Wu Yu.
This was a Natural Mystique!
The sky changed colors. In a huge area around Wu Yu, the sky
split, spewing out flames!
This was not the air of the sky palace actually splitting, but
some other phenomenon that he could not see clearly.
In any case, Wu Yu was suddenly accosted from all sides by
flames!
"The power of immortal dao marks are in these flames."
It seemed like ordinary fire, but there was something odd about
it. It homed in shrewdly on Wu Yu’s weak points, putting him
in a dangerous position.
"Meteor Rain Immortal Technique!"
After using his Natural Mystique to suppress Wu Yu, Ao Ding
immediately followed up with an immortal technique. He
roared towards the sky, and suddenly many comets streaked
around the sky, forming a great "dao" character. And then it
fell, bearing down on Wu Yu’s head.
It was like two nets of dao, one below and one above. The one
below entrapped him in layers and layers, while the one above
crushed him with explosive strength.
"The power of immortal dao marks is indeed remarkable. It’s
hard to defend against it with brute strength. It must be undone
through dao."
Wu Yu had a strong hunch about this attack. Ao Ding’s attacks
were much more sophisticated. It seemed like after
understanding "dao," the entire world was helping him and
lending its strength to him.
However-
This could not kill Wu Yu, because he had just digested Ao
Yang. He, too, was bursting with strength!
"Somersault Cloud!"
Amidst the intense flames and falling meteors, Wu Yu
suddenly flipped and appeared away from the mystique and
immortal technique.
He appeared behind Ao Ding.
Ao Ding’s Meteor Rain Immortal Technique completely
whiffed.
This was why his real body was strong, and also why Wu Yu
could not give it up. These Heaven Dao Mystiques were just
too strong.
"Eh?"
Ao Ding’s eyes were wild as his head whipped back. He was
stunned by Wu Yu’s moves.
"You killed a mystical dragon! You cannot possibly escape the
Dragon Immortal Sky! You will be hunted down by the entire
mystical dragon tribe!"
Wu Yu’s reply was to attack!
"Immortal Cloud Field!"
This was the fourth tier of the Somersault Cloud, which the
Ancient Emperor had learned. Wu Yu was using it for the first
time.
Suddenly, clouds formed and filled the entire valley to the brim.
These clouds were not fluffy and empty, but had some
substance to them. They were like very sturdy balls of cotton
that crowded one in! Ao Ding felt like he had been plunged into
a swamp. And the entire world was like this!
"What kind of mystique is this?!"
Immortal Cloud Field seemed innocuous. It was just some
clouds after all. But only after you were in it would you know
how uncomfortable it was. Ao Ding used Nine Immortal Suns,
but he was unable to burn away the clouds. Instead, more of
them started to crowd up against him, until he found it difficult
to even move.
Whereas Wu Yu could move freely here.
He had even sent out a lot of Unshackled Doppelgangers, who
were moving through the Immortal Cloud Field.
"Go to hell!"
Seeing Wu Yu, Ao Ding lashed out wildly, trying to kill him,
but he very quickly despaired because each Wu Yu he killed
was replaced by another. And they were sneaking attacks on
him!
"Little punk, what trickery is this? You’re not at the Nine Xuan
Dao Realm. You can’t hurt me! You’re already dead! Stop
struggling!"
"Is that so?"
Suddenly, a giant appeared before Ao Ding! It was a gigantic
golden immortal ape, as huge as his own mystical dragon body!

It was bathed in flames, and held a jade-like Ancient Immortal

Tomahawk in its hand!
"Violent Art!"
After Wu Yu used the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and
Earth and the Immortal Ape Transformation, he used the
Violent Art as well! His hands bulged with strength, his eyes
popping with the surge!
"3,000 Boreal Slashes!" In the Immortal Cloud Field, he lay
into his opponent with all sorts of immortal techniques, with
the Ancient Immortal Tomahawk in hand. When the Taigu
Nine Immortals Genesis Design activated, it was as if there
were nine immortals surrounding the Nine-Talons Scintillating
Sun Dragon. Wu Yu himself passed through their ranks!
"Break!" The immortals used their ancient strength to hold Ao
Ding.
Wu Yu’s 3,000 Boreal Slashes furiously chopped out 3,000
slashes on him!
For this attack, Wu Yu was using Nine Aspects Vajra buddha
energy and Bodhi immortal energy, as well as the fivefold boost
from the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth, which
doubled to tenfold with the Violent Art!
These were actually two separate strengths, because the Lawful
Embodiment of Heaven and Earth increased his physical
strength, which was his Nine Aspects Vajra buddha energy!
Two different sources of strength had accumulated in the
Ancient Immortal Tomahawk, and it hacked out 3,000 times!
Ao Ding, still reeling from the shock, was completely cut up!
This was the strongest attack that Wu Yu was currently capable
of!
Swish, swish, swish!
A mystical dragon died, his body and dao fading!
"You!"
Ao Ding could not even finish his last word. He was caught off-
guard by Wu Yu’s boldness.
And he did not even know who Wu Yu was, or why he would
do this!
In denial and confusion, even his immortal spirit could not run
away, as Wu Yu’s 3,000 Boreal Slashes was targeting it.
“ROAR!”
After destroying him, the huge golden Immortal Ape
transformed into the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast. Without
hesitating, it began to devour Ao Ding.
Within his body, newfound strength exploded. This was a Xuan
immortal after all!
Wu Yu firstly stowed the Immortal Cloud Field and returned to
his usual form. As he digested, the first order of business was
to escape this place.
He jumped multiple times with the Somersault Cloud, moving
far away from Golden Fate Dragon City. He continued to
change positions, until he finally ended up in a deep lake with
not many mystical dragons around.
Wu Yu’s body currently felt like it was going to explode!
This was clearly a dangerous state to be in. He had devoured
two mystical dragons one after another. One of them was even
a Xuan immortal. This was his limit.
His immortal spirit had changed completely into the Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast. Within his mind, it continued to roar,
urging him to continue devouring. The need was overpowering.
It even wished to procreate.
Within his Sea of Knowledge, a storm of blood took him. If not
for the Ruyi Jingu Bang’s suppression, the Heaven Devouring
Titanic Beast would probably have directly wrested control of
Wu Yu’s body.
Luckily, he could still control himself, which meant that Wu
Yu had been very close to overstepping the limit.
The primordial spirit of his real body was also struggling for
calm.
Luckily, he encountered nothing to devour during this time, that
would further aggravate him.
Right now, he needed to wait until he was under control.
Of course, he now knew where Luo Pin was.
What comforted Wu Yu was that Ao Yang’s memories
revealed that Luo Pin was not in a bad place.
Therefore, he did not need to be too worried for now.
He should worry about himself instead.
His Water Aspect Realm and Mortal Bodhi Realm were already
at their limits. He had devoured too much, and the power from
a Xuan immortal mystical dragon felt like too much even for
his black buddhas, which felt like they were about to burst.
His body was completely different from the Heaven Devouring
Avatar before. Previously, it had no limit, but he might’ve lost
his rationality.
Now it was perfected, but it needed to be controlled.
So much power, and no way to release it. Therefore, the one
solution that came to Wu Yu was to increase his cultivation
level until he could hold this power.
"Heaven always leaves a way!" After digesting the memories
of the two brothers, Wu Yu knew that there were two things
amongst Ao Yang and Ao Ding’s possessions that would help
him!
There was a precious artifact in Ao Ding’s Sumeru Pouch that
had 99 spiritual marks. It was called the Golden Stone of
Heavenly Energy. It was a material that could be used to forge
high-grade immortal treasures, and it was a decent sized chunk.
In Ao Yang’s Sumeru Pouch was an immortal essence named
the Jade-Core Immortal Tree. It had 87 spiritual marks.
Although it was not as powerful, it was enough to form the
Wood Aspect Realm!
These were all materials that Wu Yu could use to increase his
cultivation level.
"I’m really lucky!" If not for these materials, he would be in
trouble. Much of the devoured energy would have nowhere to
go.
Of course, for these two people, these two treasures were great,
but they were not all of their riches. Wu Yu had also obtained
many true immortal medicines, immortal talismans, immortal
essences, precious artifacts, and immortal kernels.
He also obtained some belongings of the mystical dragon tribe,
such as plaques of authority and proofs of identity.
He submerged himself in the lake and swallowed the Golden
Stone of Heavenly Energy, using his buddha energy to break it
down!
This was a material used to forge immortal treasures!
If not for the formidable power of the Nine Aspects of the
Venerable Buddha, he would not have been able to break down
the Golden Stone of Heavenly Energy and dispersed it to every
particle in his body.
Weng!
With his mighty strength, he crushed the Golden Stone of
Heavenly Energy into powder.
Of course, it almost burst Wu Yu’s stomach apart.
The Golden Stone of Heavenly Energy shattered, entering each
particle.
Wu Yu successfully began building the Metal Aspect Realm!
With the power of the Water Aspect Realm, and having pre-
studied the scripture, it was much easier to execute. After about
a day, he had already built his Metal Aspect Realm.
Much of the devoured energy was poured into the Metal Aspect
Realm, forming Wu Yu’s third type of buddha energy, the
metal aspect buddha energy.
But there was still much strength leftover from Ao Ding’s
essence.
"Strike while the iron’s hot."
Wu Yu began to use the Jade-Core Immortal Tree to build his
Wood Aspect Realm. The Jade-Core Immortal Tree was an
immortal essence, and originally meant to be consumed.
Therefore, it was much easier to break down, and entered his
body easily.
However, building the Wood Aspect Realm with the Jade-Core
Immortal Tree was a little tricky. Before, he had built worlds
of fire, water, and metal. Now he was supposed to build a forest
world within his body. That was a little more complicated.
Therefore, this process took Wu Yu a little more time.
But after three days, he had finished, and now he had added the
wood aspect Vajra buddha energy in him.
Finally, Ao Ding’s energy was completely converted.
Although this process of devouring was more complicated than
before, it was also more complete and stable. The real body
could also benefit from the devouring.
Before, the real body could only cultivate by itself, while the
Heaven Devouring Avatar could only improve after the real
body improved.
Now he could use devouring to supplement his improvement,
especially when he devoured dao!
"In my Sea of Knowledge, my immortal spirit has calmed down
in these four days. It is still in the form of the Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast, but with the Ruyi Jingu Bang
suppressing it, it will probably change back to my real body’s
appearance gradually. At that time, I will be completely myself
and can continue to devour."
The Ruyi Jingu Bang had played a great part in making his
body what it was.
Right now, his buddha energy and immortal energy were more
or less balanced. He was a complete 4-Yuan heavenly
immortal. But actually, both his buddha energy and immortal
energy were much stronger than a 4-Yuan heavenly
immortal’s. They might even be equal to a 8-Yuan heavenly
immortal’s when added up. A frightening prospect. After all,
this was the finest of Longevity Immortal Arts.
He reached a stable level of power, higher than he had ever
been before.
"Where is Big Sister Luo Pin?" Ye Xixi asked, seeing that Wu
Yu was no longer anxious.
Wu Yu said, "Now I know that the Dragon Immortal Sky is not
all of the mystical dragons’ territory. Think about it. The
legendary mystical dragon immortal beasts are a great race in
the sky palaces. How can they only be limited to the Dragon
Immortal Sky? After all, Golden Fate Dragon City is the core
of the Dragon Immortal Sky. The strongest being here, the
Golden Fate Dragon King, might only be equivalent to the
Green Lotus Immortal King."
"Is there another place?"
Wu Yu nodded. "There is a Demon Immortal Realm-like place.
However, it is attached to the 8,000 Sky Palaces, almost as if
the tower of the 8,000 Sky Palaces has a waist pouch attached.
Of course, it might seem like a small waist pouch, but it is
actually very huge. That is the true base camp of the mystical
dragon immortal beasts. The Dragon Immortal Sky is but a
window for them. That place is called the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm."
"Big Sister Luo Pin is at Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm?"
Wu Yu said, "That’s right. Because her bloodline is the best - a
rare Primordial Immortal Dragon belonging to the Ultimate
Mystical Dragon type - she will be brought to the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm immediately upon ascending. Ordinary
mystical dragons that ascend can only live at the Dragon
Immortal Sky."
Wu Yu carefully sifted through Ao Yang’s memories.
"Because she is a Primordial Immortal Dragon, she should’ve
been taken to the Sky Heart Tribe for nurturing."
"Are you going to the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm to find
her?" the Full Moon of Nanshan asked.
Wu Yu nodded. "Of course I’m going. I vowed to her to meet
her no matter what. She has gone to the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm, and might not come out for tens of thousands
of years. I have to go in to see her. At least I have to let her
know that I have succeeded in taking revenge, and am alive."

This was extremely important to Wu Yu. Besides growing

stronger, this was his greatest goal. He wanted to be with Luo
Pin, no matter where she was.
"Big Brother Yu, are there many mystical dragon experts in the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm? Will they allow an immortal
like you to go into their territory?" Ye Xixi asked.
They did not understand the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm
well, but they wanted to confirm this out of concern for Wu
Yu’s safety.
Wu Yu carefully combed the memories and visualized a
complete image of Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm.
He thought about it. "The Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm has
a long history, almost as long as the Heavenly Domain itself.
They have been creating their heritage in the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm for countless years and then later branched out
to have descendants all throughout the 3,000 Greater Realms
and 90,000 Lesser Realms. And then, when the mortal dragons
ascended, they would return to the sky palaces and be the
strength of the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm. The mystical
dragon immortal beasts of the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm are divided into nine tribes, and their numbers are
immense. Of course, this is nothing compared to all the
immortals of the 8,000 Sky Palaces, but amongst the immortal
beast tribes, they are considered to be flourishing the best.
"The nine tribes are: Seeping Wind Tribe, Burning Life Tribe,
Abyssal Sea Tribe, Stormy Tempest Tribe, Golden Luster
Tribe, Wooden Tendrils Tribe, Deep Soil Tribe, Shackled God
Tribe, Sky Heart Tribe. Amongst them, the Sky Heart Tribe is
the greatest!
"The mystical dragon immortal beasts have a being called the
Dragon Ancestor, who rules the mystical dragons. This Dragon
Ancestor has not appeared in hundreds of thousands of years,
as if he has disappeared. The nine great tribes are basically
ruled by the Nine Great Dragon Emperors. Each dragon
emperor rules a tribe!"
Ye Xixi asked, "How strong are these Nine Great Dragon
Emperors? Are they the fabled elite immortals that the Ancient
Emperor spoke of? The strongest in the Heavenly Domain?"
The Full Moon of Nanshan was also curious about this
question. They wanted to know the ceiling here in the sky
palaces. Right now, all they knew were the Longevity Immortal
Realm, the Nine Xuan Dao Realm, the Immortal Lord Realm,
and the Great Void Immortal Realm.
"They’re rumored to be above the immortal kings at the Great
Void Immortal Realm. One passes the barrier of eternity, gains
heavenly dao, and comes into eternal life. Perhaps the Jade
Emperor and the Nine Great Dragon Emperors are beings like
that! Those beings are called Eternal Immortal Emperors, and
each one has their own title. Those are the elite immortals, and
perhaps the rulers of the Heavenly Domain!"
That sort of cultivation level, where one would never die,
sounded very appealing to Wu Yu!
From longevity to eternal life.
The 8,000 Sky Palaces were too huge, and drew one irresistibly
to aim higher to see what was in the Spirit of Heaven Jeweled
Hall, to stand at the highest of sky palaces, and look down on
all of Heavenly Domain.
Wu Yu was especially eager.
"Perhaps the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal, the Victorious
Fighting Buddha, was one of those elite immortals. An Eternal
Immortal Emperor!"
"Of course. Otherwise, why would he be so powerful? He
definitely can’t be just an immortal king. I reckon that Marshal
Tian Peng was also at least an immortal king."
"Then was my Curtain Lifting General also an immortal king
and above? After all, he seems to have been by the Jade
Emperor’s side. Hmm, why would a ghostly cultivator remain
by the Jade Emperor’s side?"
As for these mysteries, they had no answer, and were far away
from the realm where they could find out.
"Best not to speak of the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal, Marshal
Tian Peng, or the Curtain Lifting General to others. After all, if
even immortals like them can die, who knows who could have
killed them.... If it leaks out beforehand, we could all get in
trouble."
"Doesn’t this mean that we can’t use their secret arts?" the Full
Moon of Nanshan mused.
"Not necessarily. After all, the Great Sage must have
considered all of this, but still imparted his legacy to us to use.
He must have a plan."
"Alright, let’s wait and see, then. See if the three of them have
any lingering wishes! If they want us to take revenge, the three
of us will not turn them down either."
Wu Yu naturally felt the same way.
The Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal was the parent of his rebirth.
Going to the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm to find Luo Pin
was something that could not be rushed.
Therefore, Wu Yu was waiting for the commotion to pass. He
was not sure what sort of attention the fight with Ao Yang and
Ao Ding would draw.
For now, he did not return to Golden Fate Dragon City.
"Big Brother Yu, tell us more about the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm. We don’t know if you can go in," Ye Xixi said.
If it was too dangerous, she might be thinking of trying to
dissuade Wu Yu. After confirming her safety, Wu Yu could go
in after growing stronger.
Wu Yu said, "I don’t know if it’s dangerous or not. But there
are indeed a lot of experts in the mystical dragon tribe. For
example, besides the Nine Great Dragon Emperors, there is the
Revered Dragon Council with a total of 81 dragons. They are
said to be the strongest besides the Nine Great Dragon
Emperors. For major decisions, the Nine Great Dragon
Emperors and the Revered Dragon Council decide together.
Each dragon emperor has nine votes, while each dragon of the
Revered Dragon Council has one vote. This means that the
power of the revered dragons is as great as that of the Hundred
Empires Dragon Kings."
"So many experts. And who are the Hundred Empires Dragon
Kings?" Ye Xixi asked curiously.
Wu Yu patiently said, "Before, I mentioned that the mystical
dragon immortal beasts have nine great tribes. Within each
tribe, they are further divided and ruled by their Hundred
Empires Dragon Kings. These Hundred Empires Dragon Kings
are the 100 strongest of each tribe, besides the dragon emperor.
I’m guessing they are at the Great Void Immortal Realm.
Because each tribe is divided into 100 empires, each empire has
a Hundred Empires Dragon King who rules over countless
mystical dragons."
This was a simple system. The race was divided into nine tribes,
which were further divided into 100. Therefore, the mystical
dragon immortal beasts had 900 empires. 900 Hundred
Empires Dragon Kings.
"What about the Golden Fate Dragon King? Is he one of the
Hundred Empires Dragon Kings?" the Full Moon of Nanshan
probed.
Wu Yu shook his head. "He’s but an ordinary dragon king. As
far as I know, each tribe has many ordinary dragon kings
besides the Hundred Empires Dragon Kings. Perhaps they are
also at the Great Void Immortal Realm, like the Green Lotus
Immortal King. For example, the Scarlet Sun Empire that Ao
Yang and Ao Ding belong to. Besides the Scarlet Sun Empire
dragon king, there are also dragon lords, Xuan immortals, and
heavenly immortal-level mystical dragons beneath."
The Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi were awestruck.
"One immortal beast race - but so huge!"
"Nine Great Dragon Emperors, 81 revered dragons, 900
Hundred Empires Dragon Kings! And even more Great Void
Immortal Realm dragon kings. Let’s not forget the Immortal
Lord Realm dragon lords. And you, Big Brother Yu, can only
defeat a 1-Xuan immortal mystical dragon. Are you sure you
will go to the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm?" Ye Xixi was
a little apprehensive.
The greatness of the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm had
indeed intimidated her.
Wu Yu grinned and shook his body, changing into Ao Ding.
He asked Ye Xixi again, "I am Ao Ding from head to toe. The
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm is my home. Why can’t I go
in?"
"But won’t those Nine Great Dragon Emperors or Hundred
Empires Dragon Kings see through your transformation?" the
Full Moon of Nanshan asked.
Wu Yu said, "I’m not sure. But I’m only going in to see Luo
Pin. It’s not likely that I’ll meet the dragon emperors or
Hundred Empires Dragon Kings, especially the former. At
most, I’ll meet the dragon lords at the Immortal Lord Realm.
Shouldn’t be a big problem."
Wu Yu had met other Immortal Lord Realm immortals outside.
All of them walked like they ruled the world. Their auras were
incredible, as though they could punch with the force of an
entire world.
"Alright, take care, then. Xixi and I are going to prepare to
overcome Hellfire. Afterwards will be Mighty Wind, and soon
we, too, can attain immortalhood. We won’t be left too far
behind. Otherwise, we’ll just be following you around all the
time and watching the show."
"I’ll work hard too! Hmph!" Ye Xixi puffed up her chest.
"Meow meow!" Lazy too stretched itself, as though seemingly
eager to become strong.
Wu Yu smiled. Along his journey, with them around, and Ming
Long, and now Luo Pin, who he was going to meet, these
siblings and loved ones gave his life color. He had no regrets.
He missed Luo Pin too much. Therefore, he still wanted to go
in to tell her that he was alive.
This time, he was going back to Golden Fate Dragon City,
where the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm, the waist pouch
of the 8,000 Sky Palaces, hung.
The entrance to the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm was in
Golden Fate Dragon City. It was a place called the Imperial
Realm Palace.
Ao Yang and Ao Ding had been working in the Admitting
Immortal Palace of Dragon Immortal Sky. But every once in a
while, they were allowed to return to visit kin. Their father was
a powerful Immortal Lord Realm mystical dragon known as the
Burning Sun dragon lord. He was also a Nine-Talons
Scintillating Sun Dragon, which was a fine class of mystical
dragon.
Wu Yu first entered Golden Fate Dragon City as himself and
then hid himself away. He poked around and discovered that
the disappearance of the pair did not seem to have stirred any
great change.
Therefore, he proceeded on to the Imperial Realm Palace and
then changed into the appearance of Ao Ding. He even had his
memories.
When he devoured Ao Ding, Wu Yu had seen his immortal dao
marks. Those were not easy to digest. If Wu Yu wished, he
could have left them alone.
However, he eventually digested them. The gains had been
great. While immortal dao marks had no strength, they were the
condensed form of Ao Ding’s dao, which made for a great
reference. In these few days, Wu Yu had begun to review the
Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha and the Bodhi Immortal
Dao Art through the new perspectives of Ao Yang and Ao
Ding. It was very fulfilling, and he could probably bring both
Longevity Immortal Arts to the fifth, and possibly even sixth
tier before long.
This was the advantage of taking from many, and making it into
his own dao! To encompass the world!
This was the will of devouring!
The Imperial Realm Palace was a busy place, with many
mystical dragons entering and leaving the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm.
Even Ao Ding would have to queue up obediently. Luckily,
there were not many people here who recognized him. He was
but a 1-Xuan immortal, serving the race in a modest way while
training himself.
Many of those in the queue were at the Immortal Lord Realm,
and had many younger disciples with them.
The mystical dragon tribe were a muscular lot, and they
crowded the Imperial Realm Palace.
After queuing for a long time, it was finally Wu Yu’s turn. Of
course, there were still checks, but they were not especially
strict. One could tell at first glance that he was a mystical
dragon. After noting his identity and registering it, he could
enter.
The customs official was an Immortal Lord Realm dragon lord.
He looked at Wu Yu and said, "The Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm is sacred ground. Don’t bring immortals in with
immortal treasures, or you will be severely punished."
He said the same thing to everyone. Of course, he would not
inspect the immortal treasures of every person. He did not have
that authority.
There were indeed some immortals who entered the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm this way, just like how the Bitter
Bamboo Immortal had brought Wu Yu to the sky palaces.
However, immortals would be all too obvious inside, and they
would be exposed immediately. If they had no good reason,
they would all be kicked out. After all, it was the mystical
dragons’ territory.
"Understood."
Wu Yu walked into the Imperial Realm Palace’s tunnel.
Before him was a huge, nine-colored vortex. Wu Yu walked
through it, like anyone else. A colorful world opened up before
him, with nine paths. The end of each path looked like a cliff,
and the mystical dragons jumped off each one.
Very soon, it was Wu Yu’s turn.
"Burning Life Tribe, you’re this way!" On the platform, there
was a dragon lord at each path. Seeing Wu Yu walk towards
the center path, he hurriedly called out to him, gesturing him
over to the path at the side.
Ye Xixi and the Full Moon of Nanshan were scared.
Wu Yu turned back and said mildly, "Dragon Monarch, I want
to go to the Sky Will Empire at the Sky Heart Tribe to look for
a friend. That’s why I’m headed to the Sky Heart Tribe. After
all, it would be too far to go back to the Burning Life Tribe and
then head to the Sky Heart Tribe." There were still many people
behind and the dragon lord did not want to hold them up, so he
said, "Quickly, then. Stop wasting time."
"Many thanks, Dragon Lord!" Wu Yu hurriedly entered the
passage to the Sky Heart Tribe. It was a wide path, and many
mystical dragons were walking along it in their human forms.
When they reached the end, clouds stretched out below them,
and the deepest point seemed to be a snow-white vortex of
immortal qi. It looked beautiful, like a white lotus blooming in
the depths of a valley.
Looking at the end of other pathways, one was a flaming
vortex, while another was a whirlpool. Yet another was a
stormy whirlpool. On the right was a black vortex, imposing
and mysterious. Wu Yu knew that it led to the Shackled God
Tribe. If the Shackled-God Rogue Dragon could enter the sky
palaces, he would probably be sent to the Shackled God Tribe.

And the vortex below Wu Yu’s feet was the Sky Heart Tribe.
One after another, the mystical dragons jumped, sucked into the
vortex of the Sky Heart Tribe.
"Luo Pin." Wu Yu imagined that she must have also jumped
from here not long ago.
"I wonder how she is below."
Thinking that, Wu Yu leaped. When he left the platform, the
immortal qi vortex below exerted a powerful gravitational force
that sucked him in. He had finally entered the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm!
Weng!
Wu Yu entered the white vortex.
Suddenly, he heard a voice.
"Child, you’ve finally come...."
The voice was faint and vague, as if coming from a dream. Wu
Yu started. He was first shocked, but the vortex swallowed
everything up. He could not help but doubt if he had heard
wrongly.
"Did you guys hear something?" Wu Yu asked Nanshan and
Xixi.
"Nope."
The vortex carried him deeper down, and he did not hear
anything else, save for the whistling of the clouds.
Perhaps he had heard wrongly. After all, he had not heard
clearly.
He could feel that he had reached another world. There were
clouds all around him, and the gravity sucked him down onto
one. He got his footing and then looked around. Underfoot was
the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm, the territory of the Sky
Heart Tribe - the Sky Heart Dragon Region!
The Sky Heart Dragon Region was divided into 100 empires,
controlled by the Hundred Empires Dragon Kings.
The empires were all ruled separately.
Luo Pin was here in the Sky Heart Dragon Region.
Wu Yu knew that the Sky Heart Dragon Region was about 10
times the size of the Dragon Immortal Sky!
This meant that the 10 empires were each roughly equal to the
Dragon Immortal Sky’s size.
Which meant that any one empire would probably be as big as
the higher level sky palaces.
And there were 900 of such empires.
Therefore, the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm was indeed
huge. It would be fairly difficult to find Luo Pin within the Sky
Heart Tribe!
What Wu Yu felt keenly now was the level of immortal qi.
Even any random spot had immortal qi on par with the 4,000th
level of heaven.
No wonder the mystical dragons were reluctant to stay at the
Dragon Immortal Sky and wanted to live at the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm.
This was their true home!
Wu Yu was currently in the territory of the Sky Heart Tribe.
The Sky Heart Tribe also had 100 empires.
Just the Sky Heart Tribe alone had an endlessly large territory.
He was currently at the border of it.
"With so much ground to cover, searching for news in each and
every empire is very tedious. Luckily, she’s an ultimate
mystical dragon, and should be a little more famous."
Wu Yu was a little troubled by how big the Sky Heart Tribe’s
domain was.
Sky Heart Tribe’s 100 empires were divided up, and he had to
look for information in each one.
That would be tedious and time-consuming.
But in order to find her, Wu Yu was naturally willing to do it.
His heart was already full of excitement.
He wanted to know if she was doing fine in the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm, and if there would be threats in her
future.
If this was not a place suitable for her, Wu Yu would even take
her away.
The Green Lotus Sky was huge, and now he was in a place 10
times bigger, trying to find Luo Pin.
There were mystical dragons everywhere here, and each only
had knowledge limited to their empire. They would not know
anything about other empires, much less a Primordial Immortal
Dragon who had only recently arrived.
Wu Yu began his search.
He traversed the mountains and rivers, which were extremely
majestic in the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm. The highest
mountains passed the clouds, while the deepest seas extended
deep underground.
The mystical dragons in the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm
all moved in their true forms. They took to the skies and kept
their distance.
Some young dragons could be seen playing tag.
There were also huge mystical dragons that one could not see
head or tail of as they soared through the skies.
It was like a dream world.
Wu Yu had also changed into the form of a Nine-Talons
Scintillating Sun Dragon. This way, no one would suspect him.
Although this was the territory of the Sky Heart Tribe, and he
came from the Burning Life Tribe, the relationship between
mystical dragons was still quite active. They even had
intermarriages. Therefore, although a Burning Life Tribe
dragon was a rare sight in the Sky Heart Tribe, it was not
unheard of, and no one would question his purpose.
Wu Yu was currently near the heart of the Sky Heart Tribe, in
a place called the Immortal Cry Empire.
He found a few mystical dragons here, and chatted with them.
"I hear that an ultimate mystical dragon came here recently
from the mortal domain. A Primordial Immortal Dragon?"
After breaking the ice, Wu Yu opened up the topic this way.
"Where did you hear that from? I haven’t heard that." Such
doubtful replies always came to him.
"Perhaps I heard wrongly. I heard that they came to the Sky
Heart Tribe, but I forgot which empire." Wu Yu would casually
laugh it off.
His affable manner was disarming, especially in the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm.
And this way of asking did not rouse suspicion either.
Wu Yu had asked about a dozen mystical dragons, but all of
them answered the same way. They were all surprised by Wu
Yu’s news.
"An ultimate mystical dragon from the mortal domain is a rare
phenomenon indeed. If it really happened, there would be
news. Probably not in our area. Unless someone is hushing it
up. In any case, I haven’t heard anything at the Immortal Cry
Empire."
Wu Yu could more or less tick off the Immortal Cry Empire
now.
And then he moved on to the Immortal Shadow Empire, using
the same method. The results were the same.
Wu Yu was not discouraged. There were 100 empires. If he got
it first try, that would be ridiculous luck.
Just these two worlds had already cost him 10 days or so. After
all, he could only move as Ao Ding did, which was slightly
slower.
He spent most of that time flying from the Immortal Cry
Empire to the Immortal Shadow Empire.
In his hand, he had a map of the Sky Heart Tribe, which he had
bought from a mystical dragon in the Immortal Cry Empire. It
demarcated the various empires very clearly.
Wu Yu moved long distances, searching one by one.
"You’re searching for your wife all over. If Luo Pin finds out,
she’ll probably be so touched that she’ll cry her heart out. It’s
so touching, haha...." the Full Moon of Nanshan jibed.
Ye Xixi was indeed moved to tears. "Big Sister Luo Pin is so
lucky."
"How bout this, little girl? We’ll get together! We’ll mush it
out every day and frustrate this brother to death." The Full
Moon of Nanshan chuckled.
"Go to hell. I wouldn’t look at you even if you were the last
man left in the world." Ye Xixi glared at him.
Of course, it was a joke. The three of them were like siblings.
The Full Moon of Nanshan was not at all interested in her.
He liked the meatier types....
Wu Yu was a little nervous that he would get no information.
But he continued to ask. If he did not try, he would remain
ignorant. Where was she? How was she?
If he did not find the answers, his heart would remain restless.
Time seemed to creep by.
Hustling on the road, asking.
Segueing himself into others’ conversations, and lying with Ao
Ding’s identity.
He had the memories of two mystical dragons, so naturally he
could lie smoothly without drawing suspicion.
Wu Yu saw that amidst the 100 empires, there were experts
hidden everywhere. He saw a mystical dragon who was
definitely in the Immortal Lord Realm fly grimly over his head.
That mystical dragon was not large, but it was said that the
Great Void Immortal Realm was an unbelievably strong realm
that far surpassed ordinary immortals. Wu Yu had no
understanding of that level. He even felt like a mortal meeting
an immortal again.
It seemed like the Great Void Immortal Realm was another new
level.
He knew the cultivation levels’ names now, but he still had no
idea how to cultivate to reach that point. The Immortal Lord
Realm was about creating an autonomous realm. And then
what? What could be higher, more terrifying than that?
He had to be careful, because there were too many experts here
who could kill him. He was only able to deal with the younger
mystical dragons.
There were Xuan immortal mystical dragons everywhere, and
those at the heavenly immortal level were either infants or had
ascended less than one yuan ago.
In a flash, three months passed. The Full Moon of Nanshan and
Ye Xixi had been cultivating for more than two years in the
Floating Dreams Pagoda, and were both at the 10th tier of the
Dao Querying Realm. They were already preparing for the
Great Trial of the Immortal Dao and the Great Trial of the
Ghostly Dao.
However, they still needed some time, so Wu Yu still had time
to spare.

He had already been to more than 70 empires, but he had not

heard about Luo Pin yet.
This made him rather dispirited. He was still rather nervous,
afraid that something bad had happened to her.
"Don’t worry too much. There are still 20-odd empires, aren’t
there? This place is huge. If she’s in the remaining places, it’s
normal that haven’t heard anything from the other empires
either. It’s hard to know. Besides, Luo Pin has been here only
for a while."
In the long lives of the mystical dragons, one or two years
passed in the blink of an eye.
With Ming Long’s reassurance, Wu Yu calmed down a little.
He knew that even if he finished asking everywhere, there was
still hope. Because it was possible that the dozen people he had
asked in each empire were coincidentally ignorant.
He now came to a world called the Primordial Immortal
Empire.
The Full Moon of Nanshan said, "Should’ve come here sooner.
Look, it’s called the Primordial Immortal Empire. and she’s a
Primordial Immortal Dragon. Could it be any more obvious?
She’s most likely here."
Wu Yu laughed, but he felt that the name probably had nothing
to do with Luo Pin.
However, this did seem like a likely place. He entered the
Primordial Immortal Empire. Most of it was high forests, and
there were many deep lakes as well. Meandering rivers twisted
their way through the landscape, where immortal fog hung
deep. It was like a paradise from the legends. Amidst the
immortal fog, many mystical dragons were cultivating, while
younger dragons were playing. It was a lively place.
He searched high and low and finally found a young, snow-
white dragon lazing by the riverbank. The little dragon was
lounging absently with a sapling between his teeth, thinking
about something.
Wu Yu spotted that he had a single horn, which looked like a
sword. He also had a pair of white wings and brilliant, snow-
white scales.
He vaguely remembered that this sort of mystical dragon was
slightly higher ranked than the Nine-Talons Scintillating Sun
Dragons. They were supreme mystical dragons. Their
bloodline was powerful, and they were called Sworn-Horn
Flying Immortal Dragons.
The bloodlines of mystical dragons were classified
accordingly. The lowest class were the ordinary mystical
dragons, such as the green, black, or red dragons commonly
found in the mortal domain. Next up were the mid-tier mystical
dragons, such as the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon.
One step up were the high-tier mystical dragons, such as Ruby-
Horned Hell Dragon.
Above them were the supreme mystical dragons, which were
the geniuses’ bloodlines. Those such as the Shackled-God
Rogue Dragon and this Sworn-Horn Flying Immortal Dragon
belonged here.
And finally above the supreme mystical dragons were the
ultimate mystical dragons! For example, the Primordial
Immortal Dragons. They were the absolute cream of the
mystical dragon tribe’s talent.
It was rumored that the Nine Great Dragon Emperors were
basically all elite ultimate mystical dragons, and their
bloodlines were probably even higher than Luo Pin’s. Those
who had ultimate mystical dragon bloodlines would at least
become dragon kings in the future.
Within each empire, there would not be more than 20 ultimate
mystical dragons, and usually less than 10.
The Sworn-Horn Flying Immortal Dragon that Wu Yu had
spotted was already a fine supreme mystical dragon.
However, he was young, and Wu Yu prepared to ask him.
"Hello there."
Wu Yu popped his head out of the forest, addressing the little
dragon.
"Burning Life Tribe?" The little dragon cocked his head at Wu
Yu. "What are you up to? Something wrong?"
Wu Yu grinned at him. "What’s your name? I’m in the
Primordial Immortal Empire for the first time, just wanted to
get to know others."
"I’m called Little Left-Right. You can just call me Little Left.
Haha, I gave myself this name. The name my parents gave me
is boring, so I gave myself a better one. Look how special it is!
Left AND right." The little dragon grinned.
Clearly a talkative fellow.
"Right, what are you doing in the Primordial Immortal
Empire?"
Wu Yu said, "I’m fulfilling my little dream. The Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm is so big, and I wanted to see it for
myself. So I’m planning to spend 10 years walking the land and
making new friends."
"Damn! That’s cool! I wanna do that too!" The Sworn-Horn
Flying Immortal Dragon Little Left-Right leaped up
animatedly.
Wu Yu used this phrase to confuse others. Normally, mystical
dragons would think he was addled in the head. But this Sworn-
Horn Flying Immortal Dragon wanted to jump on the horse and
join Wu Yu.
"I can’t wait. The Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm is huge."
He was worked up, asking Wu Yu enthusiastically about the
details. Wu Yu fibbed his way through.
Amidst the intense conversation, Wu Yu suddenly interrupted,
"Oh, yes, I heard that an ultimate mystical dragon came to
Primordial Immortal Dragon recently from the mortal domain.
A Primordial Immortal Dragon, I heard. I’m so envious. To
think that there are ultimate mystical dragons even in the mortal
domain. As for my life here in the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm, I’m only a high-tier mystical dragon."
He feigned indifference, but was watching him carefully. He
had been through this process many times, and Wu Yu was not
holding out much hope.
"What? An ultimate mystical dragon?" Little Left-Right shook
his head. "I haven’t heard about that!"
So she wasn’t here!
Wu Yu thought there was hope. Seemed like it was another
lemon.
He said glumly, "Perhaps I heard wrongly. Haha...."
He forced out a smile. She wasn’t even in a place like the
Primordial Immortal Empire. Where would she be....
Little Left-Right thought about it, then suddenly said, "I
haven’t heard of any ultimate mystical dragons, but if you’re
talking about Primordial Immortal Dragons, we have three in
the Primordial Immortal Empire. The first is the Primordial
Immortal Empire’s dragon king - Wu Jun. Second is his
younger brother, the Baiyin Dragon King, and his immortal dao
companion, the Baiqin Dragon Queen. I heard a few days ago
that they took in a mortal domain mystical dragon as their
adopted daughter, who is quite something. Her name is Luo
Pin, and she’s said to be very beautiful. I haven’t heard what
kind of mystical dragon she is though....”
A new lease of life! Or perhaps revival after death!
So news hadn’t spread that Luo Pin was a Primordial Immortal
Dragon.
But this guy had even mentioned Luo Pin’s name and that she
was a mortal domain mystical dragon. Adopted by a Primordial
Immortal Dragon couple as daughter. Even without asking
more, Wu Yu could confirm that Luo Pin was in the Primordial
Immortal Empire!
Finally, he had found her.
Wu Yu was extremely excited.
Of course, he still had to shake Little Left-Right off first.
"Oh, I see. That adopted daughter is probably a Primordial
Immortal Dragon. I’m so envious," Wu Yu said.
"Forget about her, Brother Ao Ding. Tell me, what do you need
to prepare to set off on such a journey? After I send an Immortal
Message Talisman to my parents, I’m going to run for it.
They’ll say no anyway."
He was extremely hyped about this.
Wu Yu patiently let the conversation play out. When he had all
the information he needed, Little Left-Right scampered right
off.
Wu Yu had also asked some news about the Primordial
Immortal Empire.
"So the Hundred Empires Dragon King of the Primordial
Immortal Empire is a Primordial Immortal Dragon. No wonder
it’s called the Primordial Immortal Empire.
"And then his younger brother and his wife, the Baiyin Dragon
King and the Baiqin Dragon Queen, took Luo Pin in as their
adopted daughter. Because Luo Pin is a Primordial Immortal
Dragon, they should be doting on her. She must be doing fine
with dragon kings as her parents and a Hundred Empires
Dragon King as her uncle. He’s even the master of the
Primordial Immortal Empire.
"Besides them, there are dozens of other dragon kings in the
Primordial Immortal Empire. But they all listen to the
Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king, Wu Jun. This Wu
Jun even has the same surname as I do.
"Below them, there are the dragon lords of the Immortal Lord
Realm, and then even more Xuan immortals and heavenly
immortals below that."
Luo Pin now had a family, and Wu Yu breathed a sigh of relief
upon learning that there would be people protecting her.
Because the Baiyin Dragon King and his wife had not taken her
in as a disciple, but an adopted daughter, it indicated that her
treatment was special.
At least he could ascertain that she was not only safe, but in a
place of power that recognized her potential. She was like the
princess of the Primordial Immortal Empire. After all, the
Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king had no sons either.
Therefore, he would be very fond of Luo Pin. She was the only
young Primordial Immortal Dragon, which meant that she was
the future of the Primordial Immortal Dragons in the mystical
dragon tribe.
Wu Yu’s heart lifted.
He had been worrying for a few months, and finally he could
lay that burden down.
Now his goal was to find her and tell her that he was still alive.
Their goal of reuniting in the sky palaces was close to
realization!
Of course, the Primordial Immortal Empire was huge, and Wu
Yu still had to keep a careful ear out. He needed to know where
the Baiyin Dragon King lived, and where Luo Pin might be.
After some asking around, he learned that the mystical dragons
that ascended from the mortal domain, or those who were less
than one yuan old, would have to spend their first yuan at
Hidden Dragon Peak, receiving cultivation guidance from their
mystical dragon ancestors.
If one yuan had passed, or they became a 5-Yuan heavenly
immortal, they could successfully graduate from Hidden
Dragon Peak.
Luo Pin had just ascended, but the mystical dragons would be
fair. Although she would be greatly helped by her adoptive
parents in cultivation, she would probably follow the rules and
go to Hidden Dragon Peak, complying with the instructions of
the mystical dragon elders who were responsible for teaching
the younger ones. They would also arrange practice fights and
the like.
The Sworn-Horn Flying Immortal Dragon from before had
spent but a few thousand years before he had successfully
graduated from Hidden Dragon Peak.
Wu Yu guessed that Luo Pin was probably at Hidden Dragon
Peak.
With his map, he roughly pinpointed where Hidden Dragon
Peak was, and headed over.
However, it would be strange for him to infiltrate deep into the
Primordial Immortal Empire’s Hidden Dragon Peak as a
Burning Life Tribe mystical dragon. The Hidden Dragon Peak
was in the core of an empire, and Wu Yu had been moving
around the periphery up till now.
Therefore, Wu Yu decided to move in his real body instead.
Using the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth, he shrank
himself to the size of a tack and proceeded through this huge
world.
There were actually also cultivators in the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm, although they were very few. In the last few
months, Wu Yu had seen two. One looked to be a willing slave
of a mystical dragon, while the other was a dao companion of
a mystical dragon.
From the memories of Ao Yang and Ao Ding, some mystical
dragons had human immortals as their immortal dao
companions. But it was rumored that one had to be extremely
strong, as the requirements to be a mystical dragon’s immortal
dao companion were strict. Besides, one would have to be
willing to serve the mystical dragon tribe.
It was like joining the family.
For now, all Wu Yu wanted to do was see her. He did not think
that far.
He passed by many mystical dragons before he finally reached
Hidden Dragon Peak. This was a lush, green mountain, and all
of the vegetation was actually immortal essences. They all had
spiritual marks, and were shrouded in immortal fog. Wu Yu
could not see how high it was, but he could see that the highest
peaks had palaces on top, each built on a super scale in order to
fit the bulk of the mystical dragons who lived within.
The sounds of little dragons fighting and huffing could be heard
indistinctly, as well as the admonishments of the elders. This
was basically a training ground.
"She should be above."
Wu Yu hid in the shadows as he continued moving upwards,
traversing through the jungle.

The closer he got, the faster his heart beat. Before, he thought
that their reunion in the sky palaces was a faraway dream, but
Wu Yu had done it so quickly!
The feeling of a dream coming true.
Luo Pin herself could not expect that Wu Yu would show up so
quickly!
Hidden Dragon Peak was very high indeed, and Wu Yu tried
his best to be discreet in his small body. There were many
experts above, so Wu Yu was very nervous.
Finally, he scaled Hidden Dragon Peak to the peak, where there
were many clusters of palaces. In the immortal fog, he saw
many mystical dragon statues, carved in vivid and unique
styles. The entire place was teeming with flying dragons and
dancing phoenixes.
"This place is huge. How do I find her?" Wu Yu was stunned
after coming up. After all, the place was too big.
Besides, if he wanted to enter these dragon palaces, there were
immortal designs everywhere that would end his life if he
wasn’t careful.
He frowned anxiously. He had to think of something.
"It seems like the place is divided into four sectors. It can
probably be seen as the sectors for the 1-Yuan heavenly
immortals, 2-Yuan heavenly immortals, and so forth since 5-
Yuan heavenly immortals can leave this place," Ye Xixi said.
"You’re a clever girl."
Wu Yu understood this after she pointed it out. The dragon
palaces were indeed divided into four. This meant that Luo Pin
should be in one of the blocks. Logically speaking, the dragon
palaces closest to Wu Yu should be where the 1-Yuan heavenly
immortals were living.
Luo Pin had not been here for long, and she obviously at the 1-
Yuan heavenly immortal realm.
Wu Yu crept towards that area slowly and cautiously, inching
ever closer like a falling leaf.
Luckily, there were many trees near the dragon palaces, which
provided some cover.
Even if he met Luo Pin, he could not move recklessly, because
the ones guiding them would be powerful mystical dragons.
He got closer, and more nervous....
He felt like he could almost smell her scent.
That was how much he missed her.
He landed on a huge tree close to the Hidden Dragon Palace.
The view was good from here, and he could see many of the
courtyards in the dragon palace. If there were people inside, he
would not be able to see them, but if they were outside the
palace, he could see all of them clearly.
"That biggest courtyard. Mystical dragons!"
Wu Yu spotted them instantly.
There were about 100 little dragons clustering about. They
were making a big fuss, as though venting their anger.
The leader was a huge mystical dragon covered in golden
flames. The total mass of all the little dragons did not even
match his bulk.
From his aura, he was probably an Immortal Lord Realm
dragon lord! This had to be the instructor for the little dragons.
And within the circle, there were two little dragons fighting.
One of them was snow-white, with immortal qi surrounding
her. She was a work of beauty, and Wu Yu could confirm that
this was Luo Pin, whom he had thought of day and night!
Finally, they had met in the sky palaces.
He finally saw her.
Perhaps because the Ancient Emperor had brought such huge
waves of change to his life, Wu Yu felt that a long time had
passed since the last time he saw her.
Their reunion in the Dragon Palace of the Four Seas felt like it
had been ages ago.
And now, looking at her using mystical dragon immortal
techniques against another mystical dragon in combat, Wu Yu
was mesmerized by her beautiful form.
He had thought about it day and night, and now his beautiful
dreams had finally become reality.
Even though she was in her mystical dragon form, and covered
in snow-white scales, Wu Yu still found her perfect.
"This kid hasn’t seen the world yet. Already gaping," the Full
Moon of Nanshan hooted.
"You don’t understand his true feelings," Ye Xixi countered.
"Oh, true feelings? Sounds tiring. I don’t get it, haha...." More
sleazy laughter from him while waving his fan of babes.
Luo Pin was exceptionally talented, and her fighting drew
many admiring exclamations from the little dragons around.
Although she had just arrived, her performance was
outstanding. While Wu Yu was still daydreaming, she had
already defeated her opponent and then apologized
courteously.
"No matter." Her opponent was a male dragon. Perhaps to him,
Luo Pin was a great beauty, and so he was very mannerly as
well.
The dragon lord said, "Luo Pin, well done. Continue to work
hard. Your parents have great expectations for you."
"Yes, Teacher." Her voice was the same as it had been.
However, perhaps because of her relationship with Wu Yu, he
saw that her manner was a little cool. She did not speak up
proactively, and stood at the side on her own after it ended.
Others found it hard to approach her.
She was not especially happy.
This made Wu Yu’s heart ache for her. He knew that his own
unknown fate was bothering her.
Next, the other little dragons fought and trained. The teacher
guided them, pointing out their weaknesses. Luo Pin watched
from the side, the very poise of attentive listening.
However, this teacher did not seem like a great person.
Towards the male dragons, he would often scold and cuff them
for their mistakes, while he treated the female dragons much
better. He would even carelessly brush up against them when
fighting, causing them to become especially nervous.
"This old scoundrel. If not for Luo Pin’s status, he would
probably do the same to her," the Full Moon of Nanshan
groused.
He was very polite towards Luo Pin.
After all, she was the adopted daughter of the Baiyin Dragon
King and Baiqin Dragon Queen, and the niece of the Primordial
Immortal Empire’s dragon king.
During their sparring, Wu Yu could not possibly meet Luo Pin
at all. He could only wait silently from the tree, looking blankly
at her.
Time passed.
But as long as Wu Yu was looking at her, he could not help but
smile. Perhaps this was what love felt like. It seemed like
everything she did was charming, and exactly what Wu Yu
liked.
Throughout this time, Wu Yu heard that the dragon lord was a
type of Golden Immortal Radiance Dragon, whose title was the
Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch. He was one of the
teachers here in the Hidden Dragon Palace, of which there were
a few dozen. He was in charge of instruction in mystiques,
immortal techniques, Longevity Immortal Arts, and other
practical aspects of battle.
Finally, after everyone had faced off and the Immortal
Radiance Dragon Monarch had corrected each of them, he
announced, "After receiving my guidance, I’m sure that
everyone is now better at practical battles. Next, I will bring
everyone into the Demon Hunting Zone, where we will have
real battles. I’ve told you earlier: the demon immortal puppets
in the Demon Hunting Zone are built in the image of demon
immortals. They are no different from the real thing in terms of
appearance, and their immortal designs are very similar to
demon immortals’ Natural Mystiques. They will be difficult
fights. Those that perform well will be praised and rewarded.
Are you ready?"
"Ready!"
Wu Yu was still looking at Luo Pin in a daze.
"Demon Hunting Zone?" He prepared to follow. He might be
able to meet Luo Pin privately.
"Your job will be to kill the demon immortal puppets and
obtain their spirit design cores. After 10 days, whoever has the
most is the winner. It is forbidden to snatch the spirit design
cores that others have already obtained. I will supervise
throughout. No hanky panky.
"Follow me."
The huge Golden Immortal Radiance Dragon took to the skies,
flying west. The little dragons followed. Luo Pin might have
ruled the Dragon Palace of the Four Seas in the mortal domain,
but here, she was a newborn little dragon, and had to participate
in these systemic instructions. Although they were actually
quite helpful.
She followed quietly. Occasionally, when other mystical
dragons spoke to her, she would reply, but not speak too much.
She looked preoccupied.
As they flew, the Golden Immortal Radiance Dragon stuck to
her side. "You haven’t been to the Demon Hunting Zone
before. If you’re not mentally prepared, you can choose not to
go."
"Teacher, I have been through much in the mortal domain. As
long as my strength is sufficient, there is no problem," Luo Pin
said.
Golden Immortal Radiance Dragon snorted loudly. "What does
mortal domain experience count for? For you, the demon
immortal puppets are quite intimidating. But since you choose
to go, I will definitely give you more instruction."
"My thanks to Teacher," Luo Pin replied.
The Golden Immortal Radiance Dragon wanted to talk to her
more, but Luo Pin’s reply had been cool. However, he lingered,
continuing to talk beside her.
Wu Yu followed far behind. Although the Golden Immortal
Radiance Dragon was at the Immortal Lord Realm, he would
not expect an immortal to be following them here, and so he
did not notice him.
Wu Yu saw that the Demon Hunting Zone was an ancient forest
enclosed by an immortal design. The immortal design was a
dome, and many huge trees grew within. The enclosed space
was huge, and many could train within.
After arriving, the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch opened
the door to the immortal design, and the mystical dragons flew
in one by one. Because of how huge they were, the immortal
design door was also huge. Wu Yu hid in a corner and then
darted in speedily as the last mystical dragon entered.
And then the immortal design closed. However, Wu Yu
reckoned that the Somersault Cloud would allow him to jump
out.
Before entering the Demon Hunting Zone, the immortal fog
was dense. But now there was a spooky aura in the air, and the
entire Demon Hunting Zone was filled with a rare and dense
demonic aura.
"Seems like the mystical dragon tribe uses demon immortals as
their simulated enemy. Although there’s not much connection
between this place and the Demon Immortal Realm."
They had created demon immortal puppets here, which were
said to be uncannily similar to real demon immortals. Wu Yu
believed this. After all, the elite immortals had created them.
When they entered, they gathered on a metal platform, where
the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch distributed immortal
talismans to each of them. If they were in danger, the immortal
talismans would immediately bring them back to this metal
platform, which was a safe place.
"Of course, if you have the heart of a mouse, you can also cower
here on the Demon Hunting Platform for the full 10 days. If
you’re not afraid of being laughed at." The Immortal Radiance
Dragon Monarch applied some more pressure on the little
dragons.
"Remember, defeat the demon immortal puppets and obtain
immortal design cores. Return here after 10 days. Top three get
prizes!"
"Understood!"
Each Demon Hunting Zone expedition was an opportunity for
the little dragons to fight to their hearts’ content, and they were
all in high spirits.

The battle just now had been a decent warm up.

"I declare it begun! Go!"
When the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch cried out, more
than 100 little dragons pushed and shoved to enter the Demon
Hunting Zone. The rules forbade them from teaming up, and
they were all out to win. They dispersed throughout the vast
confines of the Demon Hunting Zone, vanishing like stones in
the wide ocean.
Luo Pin was also amongst them.
To Wu Yu, this was the best opportunity to meet her!
Naturally, he followed Luo Pin.
However, he was dismayed to find that when they entered the
Demon Hunting Zone, the Immortal Radiance Dragon
Monarch followed Luo Pin. Wu Yu had to remain hidden.
"Why is Teacher following me?" Luo Pin halted and asked.
The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch chuckled. "It’s your
first time here, I had best follow you. Don’t worry, I won’t
interfere. At most, I will give you some pointers."
"Teacher, there is actually no need...."
Before she finished, the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch
looked at her sternly. "Just fight as you would. Ignore me. I
often give such help to the new dragons who have just arrived."
Luo Pin did not say more.
Wu Yu was very frustrated. It was a rare chance to get her
alone, but this guy was as annoying as a housefly, buzzing
around Luo Pin. Wu Yu could not get close.
Wu Yu saw that the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch had
a bad glint in his eye, but he seemed to be content with spending
more time with Luo Pin. He would not dare to do anything
overboard. After all, he still valued his life.
He said that he would "look after" her, and spent the entire
journey chatting Luo Pin up. He was probably trying to show
her his charm and build some goodwill towards him. But Luo
Pin did not pay much attention to him.
A demon immortal puppet appeared!
Wu Yu looked carefully. It was indeed just like a demon
immortal. It was a silver wolf with three eyes and a powerful
Natural Mystique. It was evenly matched with Luo Pin, and she
entered combat mode. With great difficulty, she finally took it
down, and she had been lightly injured as well. The Immortal
Radiance Dragon Monarch immediately took out true immortal
medicines to help her recover.
"It’s normal to be injured the first time. You’ll get better. You
work so hard and are so talented, you will definitely do better
than others in the future."
Along the way, he continued to chatter. One day, two days, and
finally on the third day, Luo Pin could stand no more. She said,
"Teacher, can I move alone? If you keep this up, I will be easily
distracted."
Luo Pin chasing him away made him angry. It was not what he
had imagined would happen.
"What an obstinate child. I’m doing this for your own good...."
"Then I had best go back to my adoptive parents and ask them
if what you’re doing has my welfare at heart." Luo Pin looked
coldly at him.
"Oh, well.... Although the Baiyin Dragon King can understand
my good intentions, in order for you to have a taste of real
battle, I won’t protect you anymore. It’s up to you from now
on." the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch forced a smile.
But clearly, he had been intimidated by Luo Pin.
Wu Yu smiled. Luo Pin was still Luo Pin. As headstrong as
ever.
When the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch left, he finally
had a chance to appear before her.
Luo Pin was finally moving alone.
The snow-white mystical dragon moved stealthily through the
dense and boundless forest, alertly looking for demon immortal
puppets.
"She has just come here. Although she is more talented than the
other mystical dragons, she has been cultivating for too short a
time. She is probably in the middle of the pack here. It will not
be easy for her to get top three."
Therefore, her first foray here was to try her hand at real
fighting with opponents at the same level.
Wu Yu resisted his impulse to rush up.
Because the Golden Immortal Radiance Dragon had just left.
Wu Yu wanted to wait until he was far away, and for Luo Pin
to go deeper into the Demon Hunting Zone.
There was virtually no one nearby now.
He had missed her for so long, and just looking at her was
already a wonderful feeling. He did not mind waiting.
After an hour, she had successfully defeated another demon
immortal puppet, obtaining its immortal design core.
The demon immortal puppet was a black eagle, made out of
some hard metal, just like the Black Phoenix.
However, the Black Phoenix was not as lifelike, whereas the
demon immortal puppets here looked like they had both flesh
and demonic aura, just like the real thing.
After defeating her opponent, she was slightly tired, and hid in
a tree hole to recover.
She usually spoke little, and not at all when she was traveling
alone. Occasionally, when she came across other mystical
dragons, she breezed right past them.
Seemed like she was not in a good mood.
He recalled that she had bravely faced the Great Trial of the
Immortal Dao and succeeded.
Perhaps she wished to quickly grow stronger and help Wu Yu.
"It’s time to meet her."
Wu Yu was deliriously happy.
He suddenly had the urge to play a trick on her and give her a
big surprise.
Therefore, he changed into the Crimson Blood Roc Demon’s
appearance.
The Crimson Blood Roc Demon was a huge bird, reeking of
blood. His feathers were crimson, and he appeared with a
strong demonic aura. Within the tree hole, Luo Pin naturally
sensed it.
"Another demon immortal puppet? So many in this area?"
By the design of the Demon Hunting Zone, each region would
not have that many demon immortal puppets. She had just
defeated one, and it was improbable that another would appear.
But it had.
Luo Pin had already rested for a while.
She naturally faced each trial as it came. The snow-white
mystical dragon emerged from the tree hole to face Wu Yu’s
crimson roc.
Wu Yu purposely let out a blood-curdling cry, flexing his
savageness.
Inside, he was over the moon that she had finally seen him.
Wu Yu was always like a child before her.
But after Luo Pin saw him, she attacked without hesitation. She
used a mystical dragon immortal technique that she had just
learned, attacking him with the immortal energy.
It was a sharp spear of light that divided into three, lancing its
way towards Wu Yu.
Ting ting ting!
Three tinny sounds.
Luo Pin was startled that her immortal technique had dealt Wu
Yu no damage at all!
This was beyond her expectations. Because they were the
beginner class of the Hidden Dragon Peak, why would there be
such a strong demon immortal puppet?
"Did they release the wrong demon immortal puppet?" She
frowned. But she did not wish to retreat at this time.
Continue attacking!
Next, her Natural Mystique.
"Hidden Sea’s Heart!"
The entire space turned into a sea region. Wu Yu was trapped
within it, and the sea region shrank rapidly. It formed a heart-
shaped ball of water and continued to shrink around him!
It was a heavy and robust attack, weighing even more than
metal precious artifacts. It was about to squish Wu Yu flat!
Wu Yu smiled.
He lightly extended his arms and tore Luo Pin’s Hidden Sea’s
Heart apart.
"Little girl, you look really good. How about giving Roc Daddy
a hot kiss?"
Wu Yu appeared from within, and instantly used his Nine
Levels of Purgatory mystique to trap Luo Pin. Of course, he
only trapped her, but did not attack her in any way.
The long, slender mystical dragon body was held down with
nine rings, and Wu Yu did not even leave her a way to crush
her immortal talisman.
"You!" Luo Pin was completely dumbfounded. She could
clearly sense that Wu Yu was much stronger than she was.
She had never seen Wu Yu turn into the Crimson Blood Roc
Demon’s guise before, so she still did not know that it was him.
At this time, Wu Yu flew up to her and hugged her with his
huge wings. He plummeted with her, pinning her to the ground.
The crimson wings squeezed her close to him, and his bird head
was up against her dragon head.
"Little girl, give daddy a kiss?" Wu Yu chuckled.
He wanted to tease her, but she suddenly looked emotionally at
him, her tears streaming down.
She lowered her head to look at the Nine Levels of Purgatory.
Wu Yu recalled that she had seen him use it before.
And the Nine Levels of Purgatory did not attack her, it only
held her.
Putting it with the fact that she had just defeated a demon
immortal puppet, and there shouldn’t be another one nearby....
Her tears came bursting out, and she was frantic. "Wu Yu, is
that you?"
Her voice, trembling from tension, yet soft, made Wu Yu
shudder.
She, too, had missed him and had waited for him just as dearly.
The games ended here. Wu Yu immediately deactivated the
Nine Levels of Purgatory and reverted to human form.
In his arms, Luo Pin also changed from mystical dragon to
human form. Wu Yu lied on top of the girl in his arms, and their
faces were closer than an inch apart.

Perhaps to her, this was the greatest surprise in the world. She
had not even dreamed it would come true, and she was at a loss
for words.
She simply hugged Wu Yu tightly.
"Don’t speak."
Wu Yu’s eyes were red as well.
He looked at her cherry lips and, unable to control himself,
planted a kiss on them.
It had been a long time since he had devoured Ao Ding. The
Ruyi Jingu Bang had already brought Wu Yu’s immortal spirit
back to human form, and he was well in control.
A long, tender kiss that made them forget their cares, so sweet
that Wu Yu did not want to come up for air.
All of their feelings were put into this kiss and embrace.
Only the two of them remained in this world. They would not
care even if the sky fell down at this point.
She was crying and hugging Wu Yu. She said hoarsely, "I
thought I would never see you again in this lifetime...."
She choked out those words, shaking as she said them. She was
so afraid.
"Don’t worry. I survived. I defeated the Ancient Emperor and
took my body back. I won back all that was mine, and I killed
him too!"
Wu Yu hugged her back, and the two stood under the huge
trees.
Wu Yu was still hugging her, unwilling to let go.
"How touching." Within the Floating Dreams Pagoda, Ye Xixi
was bawling as well.
Luo Pin looked up slightly. Her hands were hooked around Wu
Yu’s neck, and she looked up at him tearfully, as though
needing to confirm for herself that this was no dream or fantasy.
Wu Yu was slightly calmer. He already knew that this was real.
He said, "The last time we parted, my real body was stolen by
the Ancient Emperor. I only had my avatar. And then the
Ancient Emperor entered the sky palaces with my real body. I
roamed around the Greater Realms with my avatar and
eventually fought my way to the sky palaces and tracked him
down. I devoured his immortal spirit and took back my real
body. And then I came to Dragon Immortal Sky to look for
news of you. I met Ao Yang in the Admitting Immortal Palace,
then I killed him."
He explained briefly.
But Luo Pin knew that none of the things he had just said were
as easy as it sounded.
"It must have been difficult." She reached out a slender hand to
caress Wu Yu’s rough face.
"Mm, sometimes. I thought I would never see you again either.
Especially in the days that the Ancient Emperor tormented me.
But in the end, I won."
"You’re always even more resilient than I ever imagined. I
didn’t expect you to come to the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm, and all the way here," Luo Pin said, on the verge of
tears.
"Luckily, it hasn’t been that long. Otherwise, with all these
handsome young men around, you might have forgotten me,"
Wu Yu teased her laughingly.
"What nonsense. If I didn’t have you, I would not need a dao
companion in this life." Luo Pin smiled at his teasing. Wu Yu
was again entranced by her beauty. Just looking at her cherry
lips, he recalled the taste. It was the highest pleasure in his life.
Wu Yu was calmer, and he was watching their surroundings.
He said, "There are many mystical dragons and experts in the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm. When we were in the mortal
domain, I could not imagine such a scary place existed."
"The first time I heard about the Nine Great Dragon Emperors,
the Revered Dragon Council, and the Hundred Empires Dragon
Kings, I was so shocked that I couldn’t speak. It is indeed the
dream land of our mystical dragon tribe."
Wu Yu nodded. "When I first heard you were in such a place
alone, I was very worried. I then heard you have a Primordial
Immortal Dragon couple who took you in as an adopted
daughter. How are they treating you?"
This was what Wu Yu was more worried about.
Luo Pin smiled slightly, patting Wu Yu’s chest. "I am very
fortunate to have met them. They have always wanted a child
throughout their long years, but did not succeed. Don’t worry.
My adoptive father and mother treat me very well. So well that
I’m thoroughly spoiled.
“Therefore, I’m very safe here in the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm. Even the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king
treats me well, because the three of them are Primordial
Immortal Dragons. My future growth will be smooth."
Hearing her say this, Wu Yu was relieved. With three dragon
kings doting on her, and the Hundred Empires Dragon King
here in the Primordial Immortal Empire adopting her as niece,
they must really love her. Wu Yu could only imagine that the
Baiyin Dragon King would be only too happy to have a strong
and obedient child like Luo Pin.
With that, Wu Yu was reassured. Here in the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm, she had talent, the bloodline, and elite expert
dragon kings protecting her. Her future was bright.
The Baiyin Dragon King had already arranged a reasonable
cultivation plan for her.
In the first few years, learn about the heritage of the mystical
dragons and undergo instruction at the Hidden Dragon Peak.
The Baiyin Dragon King had already given her the best
Longevity Immortal Art, which was definitely better than her
peers’.
Occasionally, the dragon king couple would also instruct her.
When she reached the 5-Yuan heavenly immortal level, they
would guide her personally.
"Before becoming a 5-Yuan heavenly immortal, they will not
let me leave the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm. And not
even the Primordial Immortal Empire. They say that it’s too
dangerous with my current strength. That is why I could not go
out to find you. I tried asking my adoptive parents, but even
with their power, it would be extraordinarily difficult to search
the 8,000 Sky Palaces for the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor. I
was also afraid that I would expose your secret, and so.... At
first, I did not know that they would treat me so well. Recently,
I was conflicted as to whether I get them to help me catch the
Yan Huang Ancient Emperor first.... But you’ve already
succeeded......"
Wu Yu understood her difficulties.
"It’s all in the past. Next, we should look to the future. After
all, we have finally reached our goals, and we’re together in the
sky palaces." Wu Yu brushed away her tears.
"Mm." Luo Pin nodded.
Wu Yu thought about it. "I probably cannot stay here for long.
I came here because I wanted to see you and let you know that
I’m still alive, and to check in on your situation. Now that
everything is good, I might have to leave. After all, there are
too many experts here. In the future, can I come visit you in the
guise of Ao Yang? We can say that I escorted you to the sky
palaces and we became friends along the way."
Luo Pin’s face clouded. She mumbled. "As Ao Yang, of course
you can.... But I don’t want to be separated from you...."
Wu Yu shook his head. "No, the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm is the best place for you. I cannot take you away from
here to wander and risk yourself with no one to guide you...."
Luo Pin smiled and tapped him on the head. "What are you
thinking? I was thinking of how to get you to remain here
publicly."
If he could stay, or if he could enter and leave the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm at will, that would, of course, be great!
But the thing was, this was the territory of the mystical dragons.
He had sneaked in, now how was he to breach the issue?
Wu Yu, too, wished he could stick with her every day. After
all, he had plenty of time. Besides chasing eternal life, his only
other goal was to be with Luo Pin.
To watch her cultivate and see her smile.
At this point, suddenly Wu Yu was seized with extreme
discomfort!
Weng!
A powerful force held him. Although he was still in the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm, there was an additional layer
on his body that seemed to move him to another world. He was
completely immobilized, and even his flesh started to crumble!
This was the terrifying pressure that an absolutely superior
expert could call forth!
"Damned immortal! You dare to sneak into the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm! And even to the Demon Hunting
Zone!"
From afar, there was a loud roar. It was the Golden Immortal
Radiance Dragon!
The voice traveled from far away, and the little dragons nearby
could all hear it.
The huge Golden Immortal Radiance Dragon appeared before
Wu Yu and Luo Pin. His face was furious, and he was probably
worried about Luo Pin. He demanded, "You best have a good
reason for why I should not kill you! Otherwise, I will end your
life immediately!"
It was still within the realm of possibility for immortals to
appear in the Primordial Immortal Empire, but the Demon
Hunting Zone was where the mystical dragon tribe nurtured
their young dragons. The mystical dragon tribe took their
heritage very seriously. If something happened here, the
Golden Immortal Radiance Dragon would bear huge
responsibility.
"This is the power of the Immortal Lord Realm? I’m
completely unable to resist or react!"
Wu Yu felt this keenly. Before the Golden Immortal Radiance
Dragon, he was as helpless as a trussed up chicken! His
adversary held the power of a world. An immortal lord was too
far above him.
Even the Somersault Cloud could not be used. This was like the
Fixed Body Art, paralyzing him completely.
The power of a world entered his body, freezing his immortal
spirit, immortal energy, and buddha energy completely.
Wu Yu guessed that the Golden Immortal Radiance Dragon had
been left unsatisfied and had come back to see Luo Pin again.
And then he had spotted Wu Yu. And seeing Wu Yu so close
to Luo Pin, he naturally acted.
Seeing Wu Yu being manhandled thus, Luo Pin flew into a
rage. She shouted at the Golden Immortal Radiance Dragon, "I
warn you! Let go of him! He is the most important person to
me! And also an esteemed guest of my adoptive parents! If you
kill him, I will see your head roll!"
She was very clever, and knew what to say at this time. This
was the Primordial Immortal Empire, the territory of the
Primordial Immortal Dragons. Being the most important person
and an esteemed guest of the Baiyin Dragon King was enough
to convey Wu Yu’s value.
As for his head rolling, that was Luo Pin’s own threat. She
might just be a little dragon, while he was a dragon lord. While
a dragon lord was definitely more valuable to the mystical
dragon tribe as a whole, Luo Pin had even stronger beings
backing her, so he had to submit.
Luo Pin was usually rather well-natured. Today, she had caused
trouble twice, and this time, she was much more serious than
before. She had been the Dragon Lord for a long time and
therefore was used to being high up above. She still had a
commanding presence.
"What? Esteemed guest?" The Immortal Radiance Dragon
Monarch had not thought about that. He had assumed it was
some trespasser barging in. But seeing Luo Pin so furious and
anxious, he knew it was not like that.
"Release him!" Luo Pin again added.
The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch finally let up on the
pressure applied on Wu Yu.
At this time, the little dragons had heard the commotion and
came running over. They were confused by the situation. There
was someone new, and they watched from the side rather than
come forward.
The number of little dragons grew.
The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch was embarrassed. He
coughed to mask it. Luo Pin’s words had been harsh, but she
had not spoken loudly. The little dragons probably had not
heard them, and he had not lost all face.
He asked sternly, "Explain, Luo Pin. Who is this immortal who
has infiltrated the Demon Hunting Zone? As a teacher at the
Hidden Dragon Peak, I must ensure your safety. As for this
unknown person, I will definitely stop them from harming you.
That is why I did what I did. It was reasonable."
Luo Pin realized when to back off. She said, "Teacher, I was
worried about him, and spoke rashly. Please do not take offense
at my words."
She allowed the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch to
maintain his pride as well.
The little dragons did not understand what was going on. They
only knew it had something to do with the immortal by Luo
Pin’s side.
"Who is that? An immortal?"
"So immortals have human forms just like us, huh?"
"He looks handsome. I feel strange...."
"What’s on between him and Little Princess Luo Pin?!"
Because Luo Pin had emerged out of the blue as an esteemed
person, they had given her the nickname of “Little Princess.”
Here in the Primordial Immortal Empire, she was treated just
like one.
After all, the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king, Wu
Jun, had no other heirs.
The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch was naturally still
resentful at being scolded by a junior. With a stern face, he said,
"Then explain everything. What is the relationship between this
person and you? And how did he get here?"
Luo Pin looked at Wu Yu. She seemed to have made up her
mind. She turned to the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch
and the little dragons, and said clearly, "Everyone knows that I
was in the mortal domain, cultivating for a few centuries. I
attained immortalhood and was brought here. In the mortal
domain, a few centuries is considered a long time for us."
"What are you trying to say?" The Immortal Radiance Dragon
Monarch frowned.

Luo Pin said firmly, "Didn’t you ask what our relationship was?
Let me tell you. He is my husband in the mortal realm. We
helped each other through thick and thin, and now that he has
reached immortalhood as well, he came to the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm to see me. As for how he entered, that’s the
arrangement of my parents, and nothing to do with you."
"Wa!"
For the little dragons who had grown up here, this news was
just too exciting.
After all, they were just like babies!
Luo Pin was more mature than them when she came, but they
still treated her as one of the dragon babies.
To think that she actually had a husband in the mortal domain!
One of them dragon babies had a husband....
They all looked at Wu Yu with wide eyes.
And the word “husband” held great meaning for Wu Yu.
The Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm was the most important
place for Luo Pin.
Truthfully, they had not yet become dao companions.
But Luo Pin had said that Wu Yu was her husband from the
mortal domain. This was her vow and resolution.
How could Wu Yu not be moved by this? After all, he had not
made the same vow to the world that this was his woman and
wife.
The mystical dragons saw Luo Pin’s future as endlessly bright.
But she did not care at all.
Wu Yu had planned to see her and then leave. He would let her
improve properly, while he came back occasionally to see her
as Ao Yang.
But she had now directly declared him her husband.
He longed to sweep her up in his arms and kiss her fiercely.
But Luo Pin was already wrapped about his waist. She said to
the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch, "We cultivated
together, became immortals together. It has been so long."
Wu Yu saw that the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch
looked like his soul had left him.
Wu Yu knew what this old guy was up to. He must have homed
in on Luo Pin, who he thought was young and naive. While she
was young, he would use his overwhelming power to make her
develop good feelings for him. In the future, he would be able
to win the Baiyin Dragon King over easily.
But suddenly, a wild Wu Yu appeared.
"That... That doesn’t mean he can barge in here!" The Immortal
Radiance Dragon Monarch was incoherent with anger.
Luo Pin said, "That was wrong of him. I apologize on his
behalf, and guarantee that he won’t come in again. I will bring
him to Qin Yin Peak now. You can just continue."
After all, Luo Pin had said that Wu Yu was brought in by the
Baiyin Dragon King and the others. No matter how unhappy
the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch was, he could not
doubt that.
Because Luo Pin implied that Wu Yu had been here a for long
time.
At this time, Wu Yu was about to bring Wu Yu to Qin Yin
Peak.
The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch frowned. "No. He
trespassed in the Demon Hunting Zone. I have to bring him to
see the Baiyin Dragon King and the Baiqin Dragon Queen
myself. You stay here."
Clearly, he suspected that Luo Pin was lying.
If he took Wu Yu to Qin Yin Peak himself, and Luo Pin was
left behind, the Baiyin Dragon King and the others would
naturally not know who Wu Yu was.
They might even cut him down on the spot.
And so Luo Pin insisted, "No way. I have to go with him.
Otherwise, you might talk nonsense in front of my parents."
In truth, Luo Pin was a thorn to the Immortal Radiance Dragon
Monarch. If she was unhappy, there was nothing that he could
do against her.
Because he naturally could not win against her. This was the
Primordial Immortal Empire, and no one would be on his side.
He only insisted to save his pride.
Of course, to him, it did not matter whether Luo Pin came
along. As long as the Baiyin Dragon King objected, the entire
case would come crashing down.
The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch naturally knew how
difficult it was for an immortal to want to wed a mystical
dragon, let alone an elite ultimate mystical dragon. He
suspected that the Baiyin Dragon King did not even know about
this!
"Fine. Come with me, then. The others, back to training!" the
Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch snapped irritably.
He glared at Wu Yu and then took control of him and Luo Pin.
He casually dragged them out of the Demon Hunting Zone and
then took to the skies. With frightening speed, he headed for
Qin Yin Peak.
It goes without saying, but Qin Yin Peak was the territory of
the Baiyin Dragon King and the Baiqin Dragon Queen.
The Baiyin Dragon King’s name was Wu Hao. Of course, he
shared the same surname as Wu Yu as well.
The Baiqin Dragon Queen’s name was Ye Qianning.
An Immortal Lord Realm cultivator flew at great speeds. The
scenery ripped past them so fast, they could not see it.
Wu Yu saw that Luo Pin was smiling serenely beside him.
Clearly, she was confident.
"Aren’t you worried that your adoptive parents won’t play
along? Or are unwilling to play along? After all, I don’t think
they will accept such a direct declaration."
Luo Pin was taking a risk.
"Don’t worry. I know them," Luo Pin said.
"If I come visit you as Ao Yang frequently, won’t that be much
safer? Won’t that do?" Wu Yu asked her. She had determined
all of this.
Luo Pin shook her head. "I don’t like that. I want you to stay
for a long time. I don’t want to have to skulk around to be with
you. Besides, that’s not sustainable. After a few times, people
will start to suspect. After all, Ao Yang counts for nothing in
the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm."
Wu Yu naturally wished for the same thing, to be able to live
here openly.
"Of course I want that too. But I don’t know the actual situation.
Will they be willing to let us live together?" Wu Yu still
remembered Ao Yang’s words clearly. It was those words that
had cut him so deep that he had killed Ao Yang.
The mystical dragon tribe still discriminated against outsiders
that would sully their bloodline. They highly valued their
legacies, especially those of elite bloodlines. Because the
immortal beasts would have to multiply until they were strong,
or they would simply die out.
"There’s hope. Wu Yu, would you be willing to throw away
your pride for our sake? For example, if we become immortal
dao companions, the mystical dragon tribe only accepts
marrying in. This means that you’d be a member of the mystical
dragon tribe. You would have to work on our behalf. They
don’t care about names, so our children can still have your
surname."
Wu Yu did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Children.... Too
far to think about. As long as I can be with you, husband and
wife are enough. All that you say is too abstract for me."
He did not care about any of this. It was not important for him.
Especially here in the sky palaces. As long as you were strong
enough, no one cared about marrying in. Even for the legendary
beasts like mystical dragon immortal beasts, they were worried
that their talents would leave. That was why they used such a
policy to attract the elite immortals to work on their behalf.
Since Luo Pin was a princess here, he would be her consort.
That was a comfortable position. Wu Yu had even been an
emperor before.
Hearing this, Luo Pin smiled, contented. "I knew you wouldn’t
care about those trivialities. Then I’m not worried. I also know
that even an ordinary mystical dragon would meet resistance in
trying to marry an immortal. They would need the immortal to
be stronger and more talented and willing to work for the
mystical dragons. Then they would be willing. As for you, you
completely fulfill those conditions. Your future is limitless. Of
course, because I’m an ultimate mystical dragon, the resistance
might be greater."
She gently told Wu Yu, "But I’ve asked my adoptive mother
before. She said that she supports me seeking true love.
Because that was the case for them, they know how important
it is. She said that no matter who I like, she will support me.
After all, they are both Primordial Immortal Dragons. It is very
difficult for them to have a child, and so they see this more
liberally."
Hearing her words, Wu Yu knew that her adoptive parents were
wonderful people. Such a way of thinking might be madness to
most of the elite mystical dragons.
In order for the two of them to be together, she had done so
much!
After Wu Yu heard this, he said, "I was afraid of affecting you.
After I found that all was well with you, I had planned to leave.
But now, I’ve decided. No matter what, I want to remain by
your side! I will fight to earn respect and admiration from the
mystical dragon tribe! Until I can openly marry you! And make
you the wife of Wu Yu! Let us not skulk around. Let us make
everyone envy us!"
Luo Pin broke into a tender smile. She was too happy, and it
made her more beautiful than ever.
She said, "Silly, you’re thinking too much. What do you mean
by making me the wife of Wu Yu? Here, I’m making you the
husband of Luo Pin."
Even she had a humorous side.
"Don’t be like that. I have some dignity." Wu Yu’s brain
spazzed out.
"Are you sure?"
"For such a beauty, I guess my dignity isn’t worth much. Forget
it, I’ll throw it away. Haha...."
He had not been this happy in a long, long time.
Their hearts felt close to each other. Wu Yu understood her,
and she, too, understood Wu Yu.
Wu Yu had decided that no matter what storms came at them,
he would stand by her side. He would win the respect of the
mystical dragons in an open manner.
This needed him to become stronger, and he was ready.
When they finished speaking, they arrived at Qin Yin Peak.
"Respectful greetings to the Baiyin Dragon King and the Baiqin
Dragon Queen. The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch begs
an audience."
Outside, the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch still needed
to announce himself.
"Pin Er is back? Come in." From an even higher mountain
compared to the Hidden Dragon Peak, a woman’s warm voice
came ringing out. Just from her voice, one knew that it
belonged to a kind soul, and she was likely very beautiful as
well. It had to be Luo Pin’s adoptive mother, Ye Qianning.
And also a Primordial Immortal Dragon.
"Greetings." The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch brought
Luo Pin and Wu Yu in. Although Luo Pin had been composed
along the way, they were about to be challenged, so Wu Yu was
now nervous. After all, they might be exposed.
Above them were two incredibly terrifying auras. They were
experts of the Great Void Immortal Realm. It was Wu Yu’s first
time seeing experts at this level.
"Are you nervous that you’ll meet my parents? Don’t worry,
they’re very nice." Luo Pin smiled slightly.

In the mortal domain, Luo Pin had lost her parents at a young
age.
And for these new parents that she had just become acquainted
with, she could not possibly be that close with them, compared
to Wu Yu.
But the way she said it, it felt like an unworthy son-in-law going
to meet the parents. The more he thought about it, the more
anxious he got. What if they were unsatisfied with him....
BOOM!
The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch charged into the
cloud layer, and they could see a huge, silvery-white palace at
the peak. That was Qinyin Palace, where Luo Pin usually lived
as well.
After passing through the dense immortal fog, the Immortal
Radiance Dragon Monarch landed before the magnificent
Qinyin Palace. It was breathtakingly beautiful. A sea of clouds
stretched out in every direction, and Qinyin Palace seemed to
be built on the clouds itself. It was huge and pristine, and built
from some jewel-like precious artifact. Absolutely gorgeous.
Wu Yu could not breathe for a moment. Because in front of
Qinyin Palace, there was a huge, white mystical dragon. It was
evidently a Primordial Immortal Dragon, and dozens of times
larger than Wu Yu. It was completely shrouded in immortal qi,
and was extremely beautiful from head to tail. This should be
Luo Pin’s adoptive mother, the Baiqin Dragon Queen, Ye
Qianning.
There was also an even more majestic and massive Primordial
Immortal Dragon. He flew out from Qinyin Palace. This
mystical dragon was more dignified and impressive. He was
probably stronger, and the pressure he exuded was incredible.
After all, he was at the Great Void Immortal Realm, and
considered an elite immortal even throughout the sky palaces.
Reaching that level was Wu Yu’s future goal. It was normal for
Wu Yu to be so shaken.
The feeling they gave Wu Yu exceeded the Immortal Lord
Realm cultivators. It was an abstract realm that he did not
understand at all. He felt like they were at an enigmatic level
that transcended this world, and nothing could stop them.
The one who came out was, of course, Wu Hao!
The Baiyin Dragon King!
Baiyin Dragon King said immediately, "Why have you
personally brought Pin Er back? Did she have an accident at the
Hidden Dragon Peak?"
The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch was a little fidgety
before the two dragon kings. He naturally did not dare to bind
Wu Yu and Luo Pin at this time, so he hastened to get in the
first word. "Not at all. Luo Pin’s performance has been
outstanding. But today, when we were in the Demon Hunting
Zone, I caught her husband sneaking in. After all, he is an
immortal, and it’s not appropriate for him to be in the Demon
Hunting Zone. I brought him back to you. As for Luo Pin, she
herself wished to follow."
He had already prepared this along the way.
If the dragon king and queen did not know about Wu Yu, they
would definitely be shocked to hear the word “husband,” and
would fly into a rage.
And the whole lie would come undone.
The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch was a wily one.
Wu Yu was also anxious, because he knew how terrifying the
might of these two mystical dragons was.
He held his breath.
He looked at the Baiyin Dragon King, whose eyes flicked over
Wu Yu. Wu Yu felt a chill, as though he was being completely
read.
The moment dragged on and on, as though time had stopped.
Wu Yu started to sweat.
And then the Baiyin Dragon King spoke.
"Oh, I did not make it clear to him. You may go. I will take
appropriate action."
A simple statement.
But Wu Yu could hear that the Baiyin Dragon King doted
dearly on Luo Pin.
He did not know anything, but he was completely calm upon
hearing the word "husband," and had the Immortal Radiance
Dragon Monarch leave first. That spoke volumes.
The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch had been quite
confident.
Because he thought that if Wu Yu had been called by the Baiyin
Dragon King, he would have heard some words.
But the Baiyin Dragon King’s answer had killed his hopes.
So Luo Pin did have a mortal domain husband. Crucially, these
two Primordial Immortal Dragon kings seemed to be
supportive of it.
This was an ultimate mystical dragon!
"I see. But, Dragon King, she is an ultimate mystical dragon
after all...."
Before the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch could finish
speaking, Luo Pin’s adoptive mother, the Baiqin Dragon
Queen, interrupted him. "Is the Immortal Radiance Dragon
Monarch prying into our family business?"
The Golden Immortal Radiance Dragon hurriedly lowered his
head. "This humble subject would not dare, would never dare.
I’ll take my leave now, and not bother you further."
He knew that the Baiqin Dragon Queen often spoke warmly,
but was a terror when angered. Clearly, this matter was beyond
his interference. He was wise enough to hurriedly take his
leave.
In the wide space of Qinyin Palace, only Wu Yu, Luo Pin, and
the two dragon kings were left.
Even the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch had been so
deferent before these Great Void Immortal Realm cultivators,
and Wu Yu did not feel too comfortable under their combined
gazes either.
After all, he had come as a surprise to them.
A brief moment of silence.
Luo Pin immediately stood up. She addressed both of them
sincerely. "Adoptive Father, Mother, I did not mean to hide it
from you. I was only trying to find the right opportunity to tell
you. He is my husband from the mortal domain. We cultivated
together, grew up together, and ascended together. We have
been through much, and without him, I would not be in this
world at all. He is my dearest love. I will only acknowledge
him in this life. His name is Wu Yu."
To only acknowledge him in this life.
For Wu Yu, these words at this time were too precious to
behold.
She spoke simply, and not completely truthfully. After all, they
had not been together that long in the mortal domain. But in
order to make the news more palatable, she had twisted it that
way.
Both of them were elite immortals worthy of respect, Great
Void Immortal Realm dragon kings. Although they were her
adoptive parents, they were as good as birth parents. Wu Yu
knelt on the floor, and said respectfully, "Wu Yu greets the two
seniors. I made a pact with her before that I would come to find
her after I reached immortalhood. I infiltrated the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm and came to the Sky Heart Tribe. I
traveled through 79 empires before I found her in the
Primordial Immortal Empire. Unfortunately, I was discovered
by the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch. She saved me, and
had to tell the truth to the Immortal Radiance Dragon
Monarch." Wu Yu also told his side of the story so that they
would know what had transpired before.
"To be reunited in the sky palaces was our vow, and also our
dream. We hope that we may have your blessing." Sincerity
was clearly written on Luo Pin’s face.
They were done speaking.
A few short sentences had explained everything. They were in
love, and did not wish to be separated by anything.
Wu Yu and Luo Pin looked at them anxiously.
Wu Yu had not expected that Luo Pin would be taken in by
such mighty mystical dragons. Their decision here would affect
everything.
The Baiyin Dragon King and the Baiqin Dragon Queen looked
at the two and then at each other.
Evidently, today’s turn of events was too great a surprise.
The Baiqin Dragon Queen said kindly, "No need to kneel.
Stand up when you speak. We will go home first. Let’s not talk
outside. Child, follow us."
"Yes, Adoptive Mother." Luo Pin saw a glimmer of hope.
Wu Yu could see that Ye Qianning clearly doted on her. She
was also a kind and reasonable person.
The Baiyin Dragon King did not speak. He turned and headed
back into Qinyin Palace. Ye Qianning followed. Wu Yu and
Luo Pin looked at each other, unsure of how the response was.
They could only follow.
Wu Yu naturally knew that he was a bother to the two dragon
kings.
Walking into the classy and cosy Qinyin Palace, Wu Yu was
immediately fascinated by the drawings and carvings on the
walls. They were very artistic and magnificent, and even had
deep "dao" imbued within them. He felt like he was benefiting
just by looking at them. It was enchanting.
"This is the work of Adoptive Father. He often lets me look at
them. I often get a lot of inspiration," Luo Pin said quietly by
his side.
Truly a god among gods. Because of these two Great Void
Immortal Realm beings, the entire palace was elevated to a
whole new level, and Wu Yu felt completely thrown off by the
logic of the place.
Just based on all this, he was already completely humbled by
the two dragon kings.
Walking deeper, they reached a hall where the Baiyin Dragon
King’s bulk could move freely.
He turned around and stood side by side with the Baiqin Dragon
Queen. Wu Yu and Luo Pin also came in, and their eyes were
locked onto Wu Yu, especially the Baiyin Dragon King’s.
"Your family name is also Wu?" the Baiyin Dragon King Wu
Hao asked.
Wu Yu nodded.
Beside him, Ye Qianning said, "Enough with that grim face,
you’re scaring the children. Speak your mind."
"You do it." Wu Hao shook his head, frowning slightly.
"I’ll speak, then." Ye Qianning turned to the pair. "In truth, this
has come very suddenly for us, and we’re still not sure how to
feel about it. After all, Pin Er is like a newborn in our eyes.
How can she suddenly have a husband?"
Her voice was especially kind, and her attitude as well. She was
like the embodiment of the water of life. With her around, Wu
Yu felt hopeful.
She continued, "But this, too, is normal. Pin Er has spent a few
centuries in the mortal domain, and has been through a lot. To
have someone like you cultivating with her, and in a Lesser
Realm, no less, that’s a rare destiny. I once told her to fight for
anyone she loved, and we would support her. However...."
She paused, pursed her lips, and shook her head. "We won’t
interfere, but there might be more hurdles than you have
anticipated. If she were but an ordinary mystical dragon, or you
were stronger and willing to work on the mystical dragon
tribe’s behalf, it might be seen as acceptable. But in reality,
there are few precedents in history where ultimate mystical
dragons have taken immortals as companions. Perhaps none at
all. Therefore, even if we do not object, others will step forth to
express their dissatisfaction, or even stop you."
Luo Pin nodded. "I know all of this. But we will not give up. I
simply want the both of you not to object. That will be enough
for me."
Ye Qianning said affectionately, "Silly child, how could we? I
am just worried. I have a simple suggestion. If you need to
convince people, there is one necessary and fundamental
criterion. Be it in talent or fighting ability, he has to be stronger
than you. Otherwise, many will not agree. After all, you are one
of the future pillars of our tribe."
She spoke in a reasonable manner. There were many things that
they could not get around. Even with their support, if Wu Yu
was far from Luo Pin, then the resistance would be fairly
violent.
Besides, they had probably never met anyone who came from
a Lesser Realm that could surpass an ultimate mystical dragon.
But Luo Pin was all smiles. She looked at Wu Yu as she said,
"There’s no need to worry about that. Whether in terms of talent
or fighting ability, Wu Yu eclipses me. We became immortals
at the same time, and he is already at this level. In the mortal
domain, I spent a few centuries before ascending, while he did
it in less than 50 years."
Wu Yu had urged her to say this. Since both of them seemed to
be open, then Wu Yu would win their support. He could not
make them worry.
"What?" The two dragon kings, originally very worried about
their future, were shocked.

"Your immortal energy is probably already at an 8-Yuan

heavenly immortal’s level. Less than a year?" Baiyin Dragon
King Wu Hao stared incredulously at Wu Yu.
Wu Yu gritted his teeth, saying, "Esteemed Senior, Wu Yu
obtained the legacy of an elite immortal in the mortal domain.
It has helped me progress tremendously."
This was the answer that he had come up with after much
agonizing. Otherwise, he would not be able to stand here beside
Luo Pin.
"Which immortal? What’s their title?" Wu Hao asked.
Wu Yu said, "Because the immortal has instructed me thus, Wu
Yu cannot say it. I seek your understanding."
"What cultivation level is this immortal at?" Wu Hao probed.
"I do not know. To me back then, immortals were all very
powerful."
He purposely made it sound like the Great Sage, Heaven’s
Equal was still alive, rather than dead. This made him seem
more powerful, as though there was "someone" backing him.
"Do you know where he is?"
"After imparting me the legacy, he vanished, and I have not
seen him since."
Wu Yu refused to give Wu Hao any of the information he
wished. After all, he had to keep Wu Hao interested and
guessing, as well as anyone else in the mystical dragon tribe.
After all, there were many experts in the sky palaces. Their
guesses could go anywhere.
"Show me one of his mystiques," Wu Hao said.
This one could not be avoided. Wu Yu directly demonstrated
the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth. He immediately
grew to 12 zhang, a giant that towered over Luo Pin. He
clenched his fist slightly, showing off the prodigious strength
he had.
"This mystique is called the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven
and Earth. It makes my physical flesh stronger," Wu Yu said.
Wu Yu could see a hint of surprise and alarm in their eyes when
witnessing this mystique. Wu Yu had guessed right. They did
not know about the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal. They did not
know this mystique.
Therefore, they did not know who the immortal backing Wu
Yu was.
Wu Hao simply said, "Your immortal energy is righteous, and
your aura pure. Your master must be a righteous immortal, and
his cultivation level fairly high."
Hearing this, Ye Qianning gave a warm laugh. "Enough, you
old tot. Stop that sour face. The fact that he has such talent is
indeed a good thing. If this child’s future can continue to
outstrip Pin Er’s, then their future is bright indeed. And you
will have gained a fairly incredible son-in-law."
"Alright! I’m off to make food!" Wu Hao said. He immediately
left via a passageway.
"Make food?" Wu Yu was nonplussed.
Luo Pin took Wu Yu’s hand and then knelt before Ye Qianning,
her eyes full of tears.
"We thank adoptive parents for your blessing," she choked.
Ye Qianning huffed gently and stopped them from kneeling.
Her eyes were loving as she said, "We’re all family now. No
need to stand on ceremony. We two old folks have wished all
these years that Qinyin Palace can be a little livelier. With you
and this child, we are actually very happy."
It was a great surprise that this had gone so smoothly.
They truly were in debt to this couple.
In the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm, Wu Yu had
successfully passed the first hurdle.
For now, the two dragon kings had acknowledged his ability.
Wu Hao had moved deeper into the palace, and only Ye
Qianning was still with them.
She had also changed into her human form, which was an
otherworldly beauty. For her age, she was the most beautiful
woman that Wu Yu had seen.
She said, "Child, since you’re here, no need to be too reserved.
I’ll arrange a quarters for you."
"Thank you, Senior," Wu Yu said respectfully. It seemed like
Ye Qianning was willing to let him live here for a long time.
"No need to call me ‘Senior.’ If you’re not averse to it, you can
just call me ‘Aunt Ning.’ And that guy, you can just call him
‘Uncle Hao,’" Ye Qianning said.
Although Luo Pin had said that they were husband and wife in
the mortal domain, to the mystical dragon tribe, their
relationship was still not yet set in stone. Therefore, they could
not have Wu Yu call them by the same names as Luo Pin.
Next, Ye Qianning arranged for a place within Qinyin Palace
that was not too far from Luo Pin. Qinyin Palace was huge, and
Wu Yu’s quarters here were spacious as well. Furthermore,
they were magical and luxurious, and the immortal qi was
concentrated with spirit designs, making it conducive for
cultivation.
From now on, Wu Yu had free reign in Qinyin Palace. There
would occasionally be concealed places where Wu Yu could
not reach.
This was equal to allowing Wu Yu to stay here.
"I told you. They’re wonderful, right?" Luo Pin said to Wu Yu.
"They’re wonderful, indeed. Your luck is really something."
Wu Yu was gratified that he could meet such adoptive parents
here in the vastness of the sky palaces. It was a blessing indeed.
Along the way, Ye Qianning also made small talk, asking Wu
Yu about matters in the mortal domain and after he ascended.
She did not ask about private matters, and Wu Yu answered
selectively as well.
"I have no idea which mighty immortal took a liking to you.
However, we immediately knew that you were very talented at
first glance. Those at your age are like newborn dragons to us.
To think that you have such rich experience. It seems like that
immortal’s thinking was inspired when they chose to look to
the mortal domain for a successor. Once you ascended, your
qualities, experience, and talent far surpassed that of other
immortals."
After all, they were in the Great Void Immortal Realm, so they
could see many things that Wu Yu could not.
Wu Yu guessed that they evaluated the immortal behind Wu
Yu’s legacy very highly.
If not, they would definitely be worried about the pair’s future.
"Almost done. Come, let’s go taste your Uncle Hao’s work."
Ye Qianning beckoned them to the Delicacy Hall.
"What do you mean?"
"My adoptive father is very good at cooking, but it’s different
from mortal domain dishes. They are all the finest immortal
essences, much better than true immortal medicines, and also
very delicious! One meal and you will gain much immortal
energy. In this aspect, no one can match him, at least within the
Sky Heart Tribe," Luo Pin said.
A great chef!
It was hard to tell that an old, stony-faced dragon like Wu Hao
would have such a hobby. Throughout the ages, besides
cultivating, they could still focus on other passions.
Wu Yu was stunned to see a sumptuous banquet awaiting them.
Although they were all immortal essences, and there was no
meat, immortal qi hung around the table. The fragrance wafted
over to tickle their noses. It was all the finest immortal
essences. Even the broths could extend a mortal’s life by a great
amount.
This was the first time that Wu Yu had seen something like this,
and he was completely impressed by Wu Hao.
Of course, they usually lived as mystical dragons, which was
why the portions were huge - even the table was massive. If Wu
Yu did not use the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth,
he would be like an ant in the Delicacy Hall. Therefore, he used
it to turn himself into a giant, then he could enjoy this feast.
The "family of four" sat around the table. Wu Yu was still
admiring the dao and art of the food, as well as the immortal
designs imbued within. Ye Qianning raised her cup. "Wu Yu,
welcome to Qinyin Palace. The three of us toast to your arrival.
Wash the dust from your throat. Cheers."
Wu Yu was like a son-in-law who had turned up at the door.
He hurried to pick up his own wine cup. It held a fiery red liquor
within, which was both thick and fragrant. It was a heady brew,
and difficult to stand.
"Thank you, Uncle Hao, Aunt Ning." Wu Yu had not sat down
in such a setting in a long while. This was a feeling that he had
last experienced back in the mortal kingdoms. He was grateful
for the warmth here in the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm.
He had still thought all immortals were high and mighty, and
far above human pleasures.
Before drinking, Luo Pin warned Wu Yu in a low voice, "This
is wine brewed from an ancient immortal essence. It’s very
potent. Don’t drink too much. Even an immortal will get
drunk."
Ancient immortal essences had more than 100 spiritual marks,
and they were ancient objects that had endured many yuan.
Some had even persisted for more than 10 yuan, and were
extremely rare.
"No matter. If you are a real man, how could you hold your
head up high if you can’t even drink a cup of wine?" Wu Hao
said mildly.
Putting it that way, Wu Yu could only be looser. Luo Pin drank
very little, but he would have to go hard. This was definitely
the most potent alcohol that Wu Yu had ever drunk. One
mouthful set his body on fire, and every single buddha
shuddered. Besides its intensity, after drinking it down, it was
changed into formidable power that coursed through his whole
body. It even burst forth from his body, causing him to steam.
"I told you to drink less...." Luo Pin grumbled.
"It’s fine. Haha, today is a celebration."
An immortal’s wine could numb one’s mental faculties. With a
cupful of wine, Wu Yu was already much looser.
As for Wu Hao, he was a direct sort of guy. When he saw that
a heavenly immortal cultivator like Wu Yu dared to drink his
own ancient immortal wine brew, his brows lifted in surprised
approval.
However, he was also intrigued to test Wu Yu’s limits.
Therefore, he poured it on....
Following that first glass, Wu Yu matched Wu Hao’s drinking,
even as he continued to savor the delicacies. The ancient
immortal essence wine did not affect Wu Hao greatly, but Wu
Yu was flushed red from it. But he was also the Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast, so his digestive abilities were
formidable. When the ancient immortal essence wine reached
his stomach, it was very quickly broken down into pure strength
and then stored in the black buddhas. They filled up more and
more, until it was like Wu Yu was devouring bodies.
Two hours had passed since they began eating. Wu Yu and Wu
Hao were the main highlights here. Luo Pin and Ye Qianning
could only watch on helplessly. These two men were laughing
and chatting as though they were old friends. As the saying
went, friendships developed faster over alcohol.
"Enough. Any more and he won’t be able to take it. The fact
that he can take this much already shows how strong his body
and immortal spirit are. He’s definitely a match for Nine Xuan
Dao Realm cultivators," Ye Qianning said quietly to Wu Hao.
Actually, they were testing if Wu Yu was truly capable.
"Don’t underestimate him. He’s not at his limit yet. But I’ve
already run out of ancient immortal essence wine. What
madness. Such fine wine, and it’s all gone down the throat of
that young kid. I’ve brewed it for 8,000 years to develop that
taste!" Wu Hao’s heart was bleeding. He no longer wished to
continue.
"Wu Yu, you can remain at Qinyin Palace from now on. You
can ask us anything regarding cultivation. As for Pin Er, you
still have to go to the Hidden Dragon Peak." Ye Qianning
finished. This meant that Wu Yu had passed their test.
The test of drinking....

"Thank you, adoptive parents." Luo Pin was secretly glad.

Although she had to go to the Hidden Dragon Peak, the
program was not full-time. She could return every 10 days or
so, or actually anytime she wished.
There would be many opportunities for them to meet.
And Wu Yu could also improve greatly when he quietly
cultivated here. For example, this meal tonight had been
equivalent to devouring many opponents.
"Take him to rest," Ye Qianning said to Luo Pin.
Wu Yu still maintained some level of alertness. His devouring
ability was a match for the peculiar ancient immortal essence
wine. What he struggled to contain now was the strength.
In this meal, Luo Pin had only eaten a little, while Wu Yu had
eaten well over 100 times more than her....
The two left first, returning to their quarters. Wu Yu very
quickly calmed down. "This test from your adoptive parents
was quite something. But also very interesting."
Luo Pin said, "You’re one to talk. I was worried sick. I only
dared to drink a sip of the ancient immortal essence wine, but
you downed it cup after cup. How reckless."
"Don’t worry, it was a piece of cake." Wu Yu was still fired up
from his drunkenness.
"You might be happy, but my adoptive father is definitely
hurting. That ancient immortal essence wine is like his baby
usually. You drank so much of it."
"Ah?" Wu Yu still thought that he could drink more of it....
But he did not dwell on it. After returning to his quarters, Wu
Yu said, "I can’t be with you for now. I have to deal with all
this energy. You can just go to your lessons at the Hidden
Dragon Palace, as usual."
"Mm, okay."
Now that Wu Yu could stay here, they would have plenty of
time to get mushy in the future.
An immortal had a lot of time. Wu Yu’s cultivation and
digestion would also take a lot of time.
He mainly wanted to grind his Bodhi Immortal Dao Art and
increase the amount of Bodhi Seeds. He would turn this flood
of power into Bodhi immortal energy. Otherwise, it would be
wasted if left alone long enough.
Actually, he had not sat down to cultivate properly in a long
time now. And now that he had met Luo Pin, he could
peacefully remain here and continue to grow stronger.
He had the cultivation experience of a Xuan immortal. It came
from Ao Ding.
The cultivation experience of the 9-Yuan heavenly immortal
Ao Yang was also helpful for Wu Yu.
Of course, Wu Yu still had access to the thinking, perspectives,
and experience of dozens of immortals and ghostly immortals,
which he used to cultivate the Bodhi Immortal Dao Art. This
time, he aimed for the fifth tier.
The fifth tier would allow him to create 81 Bodhi Seeds.
After settling down, he used the dao and experience that he had
devoured to ponder difficult issues. The immortals of the Great
Ancient Ink Realm were limited in their thinking, but after
adding Liu Yuanqing, Ao Yang, and Ao Ding - especially Ao
Ding, who was already at the Xuan realm - these questions were
not particularly difficult for his dao.
Wu Yu again raced forth like a horse over flat ground. Within
a month, he understood the fifth tier of the Bodhi Immortal Dao
Art and gained 81 Bodhi Seeds.
Of course, these Bodhi Seeds were all dim.
However, Wu Yu had accumulated a large reserve of energy
from that meal. If he did not convert it, he would burst soon.
These Bodhi Seeds were real lifesavers.
He used the powerful conversion ability of the Bodhi Immortal
Dao Art to create a huge store of Bodhi immortal energy that
made his Bodhi Seeds glow. Because the ancient immortal
essence wine was so potent, when all 81 Bodhi Seeds were full,
he still had a huge reserve of energy.
But Wu Yu was now stronger than before.
Next, he would have to grind until he reached the eighth tier of
the Bodhi Immortal Dao Art. That might take some time.
Of course, he need not go into seclusion, and could accompany
Luo Pin each time she came back from the Hidden Dragon
Peak.
The two roamed the land and wooed and cooed like immortal
lovers. Their lives were as fulfilled as could be.
Just like that, Wu Yu settled down in the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm.
He and Luo Pin lived the life that they had dreamed of in the
mortal domain.
Together, without restriction or being ostracized, and the envy
of all.
As the two grew stronger, they also grew closer, and they talked
about everything.
In Qinyin Palace, the Baiyin Dragon King and the Baiqin
Dragon Queen were often cultivating, and did not appear
frequently. Occasionally, Wu Hao would be in a good mood
and would serve up one of his feasts. But he did not trot out his
ancient immortal essence wine again.
Time passed slowly.
Sometimes, Wu Yu would even go to the Hidden Dragon Peak
to escort her back.
Others could not possibly be ignorant of his life here at the
Primordial Immortal Empire.
In truth, word had gotten out from the day that he had appeared
at the Hidden Dragon Peak. Everyone knew that Luo Pin’s
husband in the mortal domain was an immortal.
An ultimate mystical dragon’s immortal husband was big news.
Even if Wu Yu had not gone outside, news of him would’ve
inevitably spread to other empires.
He had already guessed that this would be sensational news in
a peaceful world. Wu Hao had also warned Wu Yu before that
he would face many challenges if he wished to be with Luo Pin.
And some of those challenges would have to be overcome by
Wu Yu himself, as they would be unable to help him.
In the end, whether he could sustain a relationship with Luo Pin
would depend on himself.
That was reasonable.
The mystical dragons obviously did not want their own genius
daughter from an elite bloodline to marry out.
Recently, Wu Yu sometimes went out, and some mystical
dragons looked at him in a different way.
Of course, they did not dare to do anything to Wu Yu blatantly.
After all, the rumor was that the two dragon kings had escorted
Wu Yu in, and he was living at Qinyin Palace.
The Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch had wanted to bury
Wu Yu by bringing him to them, but the two dragon kings had
brushed him off.
Hearing this account, no mystical dragon would be foolish
enough to do anything to Wu Yu.
But the strange looks came at him from everywhere. Even when
Luo Pin went out alone, others would ask very impolite
questions.
Wu Yu had seen all of this coming. He knew that the surest way
of deciding things was his own fighting ability.
The fact that Wu Hao and Ye Qianning could help him was
already an enormous boon. If not, Wu Yu would have been
chased out of the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm long ago.
Therefore, he and Luo Pin were both aware and not that
mindful of these insults. They focused on cultivation, and both
improved together.
Although Luo Pin had just arrived not long ago, she was
already close to becoming a 2-Yuan heavenly immortal.
And as they got to know him better, the dragon king couple
grew to like Wu Yu as well. They could see that Wu Yu was
tenacious, responsible, and had a fiery drive for improvement.
At the same time, he was clever and discerning, but also
someone who could maintain his composure in the face of
difficulty.
Wu Hao was not a bad person either. Although he had a gruff
expression most of the time, and a blunt manner of speaking,
he could also see the depth of the feelings between Wu Yu and
Luo Pin.
Their feelings were real, and could not deceive the couple, who
themselves had walked the road of love for far, far longer.
The fact that Wu Yu dared to come to the Primordial Immortal
Empire was testament to his resolve and courage.
In their peaceful life, Wu Yu and her both enjoyed this blissful
time. At the same time, he was also cultivating as hard as he
could.
Besides the Bodhi Immortal Dao Art, Wu Yu was also training
the Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha.
Both were equally important.
The Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha required a starter.
Of course, such things were also for sale in the Primordial
Immortal Empire. Luo Pin could definitely ask her adoptive
parents for such things, and they would obviously have it.
But Wu Yu did not want to cultivate by depending on her
adoptive parents.
He could not appear in the busy streets of the Primordial
Immortal Empire either, or many mystical dragons would be
staring at him.
Therefore, he had set aside a good portion of Ao Yang’s fortune
and asked Luo Pin to buy three things for him.
They were:
a Colossal Mantled Rock, a precious artifact with 99 spiritual
marks.
a Gamma-Blue Nefarious Gust, an immortal kernel with 93
spiritual marks.
and a high-grade true immortal medicine called the Lightning-
Rod Vacuum Pill.
Now that he had the Earth Aspect Realm, the Wind Aspect
Realm, and the Lightning Aspect Realm’s starters all prepared,
he could create three more aspect realms. If he succeeded, Wu
Yu would reach the seventh tier of the Nine Aspects of the
Venerable Buddha.
Of course, this would be no easy task.
He had wanted to buy the starters for the final two, the Darkness
Aspect Realm and the Light Aspect Realm, as well, but Luo Pin
could not find them, despite her best efforts. After all, they were
rarer objects. The higher caliber ones, Wu Yu could not use.
The overly inferior ones would not be effective. There was
nothing that matched Wu Yu perfectly.
Of course, that was still a ways away, so there was no need to
rush it right now.
He advanced both his immortal energy and buddha energy at
the same pace.
He actually had many offensive techniques and mystiques
already. What determined his fighting ability now was his
Bodhi immortal energy and the Nine Aspects Vajra Buddha
Energy.
In the remaining half a year -
He used Colossal Mantled Rock to bring his Nine Aspects of
the Venerable Buddha to the fifth tier, the Earth Aspect Realm.
And then he used the Gamma-Blue Nefarious Gust to bring his
Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha to the sixth tier, the
Wind Aspect Realm!
At the sixth tier, he had six types of vajra buddha energy mixing
within him!
And with the Bodhi Immortal Dao Art, he had made relatively
greater improvements. Not only the sixth tier, he had even
finished the seventh tier!
He now had 729 Bodhi Seeds.
In terms of cultivation level, they were roughly at the 6-Yuan
and 7-Yuan heavenly immortal level, which was already very
high.
However, all of his money had been spent. He had also finished
using up all of the energy from the ancient immortal essence
wine. Without devouring for a long time, his Earth Aspect
Realm and Wind Aspect Realm stood mostly barren of buddha
energy, and his Bodhi Seeds were all mostly empty and dim.
"Although my cultivation level is higher now, I haven’t actually
gained that much effective strength. I still need immortal
energy and buddha energy, and I have to absorb immortal qi
and slowly convert it. After all, I have no more true immortal
medicines or the like."
Luckily, the immortal qi here was plentiful. With enough time,
Wu Yu could plenish himself. He would only need a few
decades to do it.
For ordinary immortals, this might be normal, but Wu Yu
naturally felt that it was too long.

"Right now, given Ao Ding’s dao and intellect, it’s very hard
to improve the Bodhi Immortal Dao Art and Nine Aspects of
the Venerable Buddha any further."
If he did not devour, he would indeed have to depend on
himself.
Of course, Wu Yu was already very satisfied with his
monstrous rate of improvement. His fighting power had
rocketed up.
Others, who lacked the dao and memories of stronger
immortals, would not be able to match Wu Yu’s growth.
Wu Yu could use the perspective of dozens of immortals to
consider a problem, but others could not.
Wu Yu continued to cultivate. Next, he wanted to complete the
Lightning Aspect Realm. As for immortal energy and true
immortal medicines, he could only slowly accumulate them.
Actually, if he just asked the two dragon kings, they would
definitely have some. But Wu Yu was stubborn by nature, so
he would not ask. Luo Pin knew this, and that he wished to rely
on himself, so she let him be.
After all, Wu Yu’s improvements were too speedy, and she was
totally left in the dust. She was a little nervous....
Wu Yu was not even like an immortal.
The two dragon kings naturally knew of his cultivation
progress. Perhaps this fortified their resolve to support Wu Yu.
Time passed.
After half a year, Wu Yu had spent much time with Luo Pin,
and was very familiar with every inch of her body.
But they had not yet taken the final step.
Because Luo Pin had said that she wished to wait for marriage,
when he openly wed her.
Wu Yu, of course, respected her. This was not the most
important thing. Besides, Wu Yu knew that if he claimed her
before they were officially accepted, it would also anger many
experts amongst the mystical dragons.
In this half a year, some people had come to give them trouble,
but Wu Yu had ignored them.
He was still thinking of ways to grow stronger, and also
enjoying his time with her. Her warmth and intellect would
always calm Wu Yu down from his peevishness, and keep him
alert and focused on the situation before him.
Occasionally, Wu Hao and Ye Qianning would also instruct
Wu Yu, providing considerable help.
Wu Yu was wondering if he could do anything besides killing
to earn money, and make some bank on the immortal energy
and buddha energy that he sorely needed.
Besides Wu Hao’s feasts, there didn’t seem to be much that
could give Wu Yu the volumes of the energy he needed. And
Wu Hao’s meals completely depended on his mood. He could
not possibly ask for them every day....
One day, Luo Pin had returned from the Hidden Dragon Peak.
"I’m not going to the Hidden Dragon Peak tomorrow. Adoptive
Mother told me to go with her to the 1-Yuan Mystical Dragon
Battlefield” She hugged Wu Yu from behind while he was
contemplating immortal dao, her pliant body pressing into his
back.
"What are you going to do there?" Wu Yu asked casually.
Wu Hao and Ye Qianning were patient with her nurturing, and
Wu Yu had no doubts about her continued growth.
"It’s said to be for all of the mystical dragons at 1-Yuan and
below within the Primordial Immortal Empire. They will join
the bouts, and the top three will have many prizes. And also
seems like there are other prizes," Luo Pin said absently. She
did not seem very interested.
"You don’t have to join?"
Luo Pin said, "Of course not. I’m still a ‘baby’ here."
Wu Yu turned around to catch her with a chuckle. "I don’t
believe it. Why would a baby be so big!"
Luo Pin blushed and struggled. "There will be many people
there, and it will be very crowded. Be a good boy and wait for
me to come back."
"No problem."
It did not have anything to do with Wu Yu anyway. If he went,
he would draw attention, and the elite experts might turn their
eyes this way.
"Tomorrow, my uncle, Wu Jun, will return as well. He might
appear," Luo Pin said.
Wu Jun was the dragon king of the Primordial Immortal
Empire, the absolute ruler of this place.
He represented the Sky Heart Tribe among the Hundred
Empires Dragon Kings.
Up till now, he had not been in the Primordial Immortal
Empire. Therefore, Wu Yu had not met him. Wu Yu was
surprised he would return for this assessment.
The immortal dragons defined the age of one yuan as mystical
dragons below the age of 120,000. This was similar to the
definition mortals had for children below the age of 10.
Therefore, this was equivalent to mortals assessing children
below 10 years old.
Luo Pin would undoubtedly be seen as a baby in this place. She
naturally couldn’t compare with those that had cultivated for
100,000 years.
She would just be following Wu Hao and Ye Qianning to
spectate the battles the next day. This was also the rule.
Watching battles between children would still be greatly
beneficial to babies who had just started cultivating.
As an outsider, it was best that Wu Yu not show himself at this
critical juncture.
Therefore, after spending the night with Luo Pin, he sent her
back to Wu Hao and Ye Qianning the next day. He continued
his routine and started cultivating.
While heading towards the 1-Yuan Mystical Dragon
Battlefield, Ye Qianning asked spontaneously, "Pin Er, do you
know the extent of his improvements over the past half a year?"
"I guess it’s alright? He cultivated at about the same speed
when he was in the mortal domain," answered Luo Pin.
Ye Qianning didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She said,
"Child, how could the cultivation in the mortal domain be
compared with the sky palaces? Within our Primordial
Immortal Empire, the quickest to complete the cultivation of
heavenly immortal to Xuan immortal was at least a thousand
years. You are a top notch genius, but you will likely still
require 2,000 years."
Wu Hao interjected and said, "And for him, judging at the pace
he’s going, he will likely take less than 10 years! What kind of
speed is that? Or could it be that he has exceptional perceptive
acuity?" Luo Pin naturally knew about the Heaven Devouring
Titanic Beast, but she couldn’t say a thing about it. Therefore,
she answered, "Perhaps the immortal that imparted his legacy
to him was truly formidable. He is as frightening as he was in
the past."
Ye Qianning nodded and said, "That should explain it.
However, it’s still early. Perhaps his speed of improvement will
be more typical after this spurt period. Nonetheless, his legacy
definitely isn’t bad since he is moving at the current speed. That
kid has a righteous personality and is especially resilient.
Moreover, the bond between you two is really strong. We are
still supportive of you two. However, before you guys are
considered strong, it is best to keep a low profile and not cause
too huge of a ruckus. Do you understand?"
Luo Pin nodded and replied, "I do."
Soon, they arrived at the 1-Yuan Mystical Dragon Battlefield.
This was an unusual piece of flat and vast land within the
mountain ranges. The ground was paved with jade stones with
dense engravings. Those were all the art of Wu Hao! Looking
down from above, this land resembled the peaceful sea and
smooth surface of a mirror.
At this time, a large number of mystical dragons had gathered.
There were tens of thousands of immortal mystical dragons,
among which many were Xuan immortals. Immortal Lord
Realm dragon lords like the Immortal Radiance Dragon Lord
could also be seen around. Obviously, even dragon lords
couldn’t sit at the highest point. This was because that area was
reserved for Great Void Immortal Realm dragon kings!
The Baiyin Dragon King and the Baiqin Dragon Queen landed
at that height and brought Luo Pin along.
Looking down, one could see all the mystical dragons packed
densely below. This was a grand event for the Primordial
Immortal Empire!
At the same height, there were also several dozen dragon kings
that had arrived. Luo Pin knew all of them. They weren’t
Hundred Empires Dragon Kings, they belonged to the
Primordial Immortal Empire like the Baiyin Dragon King. All
of them were subordinates of Wu Jun.
Nonetheless, the Baiyin Dragon King was definitely stronger
and had slightly higher standing. Therefore, when they arrived,
most of the dragon kings were courteous.
As for the various mystical dragons below them, they lowered
their heads to welcome the two dragon kings. After all, they
were all ultimate mystical dragons, and ultimate mystical
dragons were extremely rare. Other dragon kings were largely
supreme mystical dragons.
"Greetings, dragon kings. I hope everyone has been well!" Luo
Pin was polite. After the other party showed goodwill, she
stepped out and paid her respects to her seniors.
"It’s been half a year and Pin Er has gotten even more
stunning!"
"Yeah, and she’s making good improvements. She’ll probably
reach the strength of a 2-Yuan heavenly immortal soon despite
her young age!"
"With the guidance of the two dragon kings and her exceptional
talent, her future is bright. We are really envious of the two
dragon kings!"
The dragon kings had not met in a long time and therefore were
exchanging pleasantries. In this place, the Baiyin Dragon King
definitely had the highest standing! This was because he was
the younger brother of the Primordial Immortal Empire’s
dragon king.
Below them, the ground for the assessment was prepared. The
young dragons couldn’t wait to give it a try.
The crowd was raucous.
It was clear that they had to wait for a crucial person to arrive.
At this moment, the mystical dragons chanted in unison,
"Greetings, Primordial Immortal Empire dragon king!"
Even the dragon kings at the highest point lowered their heads.
Luo Pin knew it had to be Wu Jun that had arrived.
After going through the ritual bows, she lifted her head. Above
her, she saw a familiar mystical dragon. That was a Primordial
Immortal Dragon as well, but he looked even more unique. His
size was similar to Wu Hao’s, but his colors were stronger and
deeper. As the strongest dragon king among the Hundred
Empires Dragon Kings of the Sky Heart Tribe, he was naturally
different from Wu Hao. Just his demeanor was enough to cast
a shadow over Wu Hao and other dragon kings. Moreover, he
was more solemn than Wu Hao. Although Luo Pin knew he
was fond of her, she was still a little afraid of him.
"Skip the trivial matters and let’s begin." The moment the
Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king, Wu Jun, arrived,
he waved his hand and declared the start of the assessment.
Simple and direct.
"Yes! Yes!" The one in charge was none other than the
Immortal Radiance Dragon Lord. He started the assessment in
a hurry to determine the final three among all mystical dragons
within the age limit.
Luo Pin wasn’t very interested initially, but Wu Hao wanted
her to watch and learn. Therefore, she was watching attentively.
Multiple thrilling battles broke out below as mystical dragons
gave everything they had. Indeed, Luo Pin found it to be useful.
As Wu Jun was watching silently, the other dragon kings didn’t
exchange words extensively. As for the mystical dragons below
them, they were cheering and rallying!
It might take a few days to determine the top three. However,
as the battles were intense, they were thrilling to watch, so one
wouldn’t lose interest. Moreover, many people were curious to
know who would be the top three.
Among them were the sons and daughters of the dragon kings.
Therefore, several dragon kings were watching with
exceptional attention and Wu Jun rarely spoke.
After several days, amidst all the intense battles, Luo Pin could
see several familiar faces that had outstanding performances.
They thrashed their way through and made it to the very end!

Almost all of them were well known. After all, they were the
descendants of dragon kings. Their starting lines were different
from others.
Luo Pin met them previously when Wu Hao brought her to the
gathering of descendants of the dragon kings. For her, those
were her elder brothers and sisters.
For example, there was a Clear Jade Xuan Dragon named Yu
Manyuan. He had been cultivating for 10,000 years and was
currently a 2-Xuan immortal. On the battlefield, he was
probably one of the youngest. However, he had lots of tricks
and frightening Natural Mystiques that allowed him to defeat
several opponents at his level in quick succession.
There was another Clear Jade Xuan Dragon a short distance
away from Luo Pin and that was the Jade Mirror Dragon King.
She was a female dragon and was said to have strength
comparable to Ye Qianning. She had a flirtatious look and a
bombastic personality. At this point, she was singing high
praises of her son in front of Wu Jun.
Wu Jun commented, "To be able to defeat five opponents at the
same level as him, he’s not bad."
Jade Mirror raised her eye amorously and said, "Manyuan is
still young and definitely slightly weaker than the sons of the
Luminary Dragon King and the Interstellar Domain Dragon
King. However, once Manyuan reaches their age, he might not
be any weaker than them."
The sons of the other two dragon kings were also on the
battleground today. Their performances were indeed more eye-
catching than that of Yu Manyuan as they were stronger. The
son of Interstellar Domain Dragon King, the 3,000 Stellar
Domain Dragon, Xing Ling, had a cold personality. He was
ferocious, swift, and decisive against his opponents, and
basically no one was a match for him as he progressed to the
final stage. He was the only 3-Xuan immortal. Other mystical
dragons might not even be at this level after cultivating for
120,000 years.
However, no matter how outstanding Xing Ling was, the light
on him dimmed when compared to the son of the Luminary
Dragon King. That Taiyi Luminary Celestial Dragon was Ye
Xuanyi. He had a righteous demeanor and gentle looks. When
he fought, he seemed gentle, but he easily crushed anyone in
his way. Moreover, he was widely regarded as the absolute
number one and the only 4-Xuan immortal on the battleground.
The closest to him was the 3,000 Stellar Domain Dragon, Xing
Ling.
Ye Xuanyi had taken 20,000 years to become a 4-Xuan
immortal. The dao of a Xuan immortal was extremely hard to
grasp. Considering his speed, he could be considered a supreme
genius.
Where the dragon kings were, the Interstellar Domain Dragon
King chuckled upon hearing the Jade Mirror Dragon King. He
said, "Manyuan isn’t bad. However, it’s unknown if he could
complete another dao in two thousand years. Younger Sister
Jade Mirror, let’s not exaggerate. You have been spoiling your
son too much. From what I see, Yu Manyuan seems a little too
pampered."
Jade Mirror Dragon King wasn’t too pleased. "Isn’t a son
supposed to be spoiled? Or should I be like you? Xing Ling
always puts on a cold expression and barely speaks to anyone.
Who knows if he will get himself in trouble in the future."
Sensing the confrontational vibes between the two dragon
kings, the Luminary Dragon King stepped in to ameliorate the
situation. "Let’s stop the quarrel here, or we might be seen as a
joke by the other dragon kings. Both your child-raising ways
are the best, and both your children will definitely grow up
well. They are definitely the future pillars of our Primordial
Immortal Empire. We are nearing the end of the assessment to
determine the top three. Let’s keep our focus and attention
there."
The Interstellar Domain Dragon King snorted, "That’s easy for
you to say. Your son is 8,000 years older. The number one spot
will definitely be his."
The trio was of comparable strength and therefore wouldn’t
give in. As for the others, their descendants weren’t
participating and therefore were too lazy to get dragged into
their verbal war. Luo Pin felt out of sorts. She had seen multiple
battles over the few days. Although the battles had reached the
final stage, the outcome was pretty much cast in stone.
In the end, it was just as everyone had expected.
Clear Jade Xuan Dragon, Yu Manyuan. Third!
3,000 Stellar Domain Dragon, Xing Ling. Second!
Taiyi Luminary Celestial Dragon, Ye Xuanyi. First!
The assessment had ended!
Wu Jun threw out the rewards and announced, "That will be it.
The three of you will enter the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory."
When the three teenagers were receiving the rewards from the
Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king, they were
restrained and anxious.
The Jade Mirror Dragon King was satisfied with her son no
matter how she saw it.
When she saw the beautiful Luo Pin, a thought struck her and
she said to the Baiqin Dragon Queen, "Sister Qin, my son is of
similar age as your daughter and both are young geniuses. If
they could get together in the future and we become in-laws,
how great it would be! Why am I hearing you are allowing an
ordinary immortal to become the husband of Pin Er? Pin Er is
still really young...."
The "trial" was meant to come to a smooth close, and the
Primordial Immortal Empire mystical dragons were preparing
to leave.
But when the Jade Mirror Dragon King suddenly said such a
thing, everyone stopped and turned to listen.
As for the two champions of this tournament, they had already
discussed them until they were sick of it.
Everyone in the Primordial Immortal Empire knew about it.
The recently arrived Primordial Immortal Dragon Luo Pin
actually had a mortal domain husband, and Wu Hao and Ye
Qianning had brought him to Qinyin Palace!
Everyone looked at each other, the excitement rising. They
knew that a clash between dragon kings was about to start.
Everyone looked forward to the show.
"That’s right, I heard about it as well. I had my doubts. Pin Er
is just a young dragon, and an incredibly rare ultimate mystical
dragon at that. How could she have an immortal husband, who
is allowed to stay in the Primordial Immortal Empire?" the
Luminary Dragon King asked.
Suddenly, all eyes were lined up on Wu Hao and Ye Qianning.
It was very understandable that the mystical dragons would be
unsatisfied that such a beautiful girl with a bright future would
have a pathetic husband. And an outsider at that.
How could an immortal outsider gain what they could not? Did
that mean they were inferior to the immortal?
Did that mean that the entire Primordial Immortal Empire did
not have a mystical dragon more brilliant than this immortal?
Interest in this issue was palpable. The Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king surveyed the crowd, then asked mildly,
"Am I the last to know about this?" His gaze landed on Wu Hao
and Luo Pin.
The pressure was on the three of them now. Wu Hao was
unruffled. He was already prepared, and spoke at length to Wu
Jun in private.
He probably told the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon
king about Wu Yu’s situation, as well as his story with Luo Pin.
Wu Jun listened with no emotion.
The Jade Mirror Dragon King hurriedly said, "Actually, I feel
that this is not appropriate. After all, there are so many more
excellent talents in the Primordial Immortal Empire that are far
better than that immortal. Besides, Pin Er is still young, and an
ultimate mystical dragon at that. If news of this gets out, our
entire Primordial Immortal Empire will lose face."
The Interstellar Domain Dragon King said, "Let me
acknowledge the ugly truth. Our Primordial Immortal Empire
has become the laughing stock of our neighboring empires
because of this. An ultimate mystical dragon bears a heavy duty
to our legacy, and there have been no precedents of external
marriage. I feel that the Baiyin Dragon King and the Baiqin
Dragon Queen have been remiss on this matter."
The Luminary Dragon King continued, "If news of this gets to
the dragon emperors, and even the Revered Dragon Council,
there will be no good end."
Luo Pin looked at each of them as they spoke. After all, they
were the dragons of the moment, as their sons had ranked top
three in the trials. They all stood before the Primordial
Immortal Empire’s dragon king.
She had seen this coming, and had asked Wu Yu not to come
because she had been worried that they would make trouble.
Which they did.
Yu Manyuan suddenly laughed. "I actually feel that all the
seniors need not be so anxious. Pin Er is still young and is easily
swayed by outsiders. Let us first get this Wu Yu person out of
the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm. When Pin Er grows up,
she will naturally know better and forget this mortal domain
person. We have talents aplenty at the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm. For example, myself, Yu Manyuan. Perhaps
Pin Er could consider me?"
He had been like this since young, daring to say anything.
And after saying this, many people also expressed support that
Yu Manyuan and Luo Pin were more compatible.
But Luo Pin was angry now. She said publicly, "You’re
nothing. Who I like and who I want to be with is none of your
concern. It’s not your place to chase him away. You are still
light years away from being his match."
Luo Pin very seldom got angry. Everyone remembered her as
an obedient child, but this outburst stunned Yu Manyuan. His
face turned green and he seethed. At the side, Xing Ling and
Ye Xuanyi were sniggering.
The Jade Mirror Dragon King suddenly raised her head and
glared at Luo Pin, berating her, "Watch your tongue, wench!
What a sharp tongue you have! We are all doing this for your
own good, but you’re speaking up for an outsider. You...."
She herself could not even bear to scold her own darling son,
but now Luo Pin had given him a verbal lashing, so she was
bleeding inside for her son.
If she were anyone but Luo Pin, and if Luo Pin did not have
three Primordial Immortal Dragons by her side, Luo Pin would
probably be dead.
"Enough. Wu Hao, bring him here to see me." The Jade Mirror
Dragon King’s outburst was cut short by Wu Jun.
"Mm." Wu Hao nodded.
Hearing that Wu Yu was about to come, things got even more
heated. They believed that Wu Jun could dispense justice and
would not let their talent flow out.
"This Wu Yu person is doomed."
"Luo Pin is still young, I hope she can quickly shake off this
rascal’s seduction."
Wu Hao sent out an Immortal Message Talisman.
Luo Pin was a little anxious. Ye Qianning bumped her. "If the
two of you wish to be together, there will always be obstacles.
They are all trivial. Face them bravely. Don’t forget that we
support you. Don’t worry, your uncle is not a bad person. He is
just a little surly that your adoptive father did not tell him about
this sooner."
Hearing this, Luo Pin breathed a little easier.
Wu Yu was focused on cultivation, and did not bother with the
events at the 1-Yuan Mystical Dragon Battlefield.
He was busy training the Lightning Aspect Realm. It was
already getting very complex, and Ao Ding’s comprehensive
abilities were of limited use.
He now had a glimmer of understanding as to why immortals
often needed millennia of cultivation for a breakthrough -
because there was just too much information that was too
complex.
"Fusing seven different aspects of Vajra buddha energy
together as one, and using them simultaneously, is an art in
itself.
"The more you add on, the greater the difficulty."
He started to realize that immortal dao cultivation was not so
easy.
Perhaps he had cultivated quickly because he was still at the
Heavenly Immortal Realm. When he entered the Xuan
Immortal Realm, it would be even more profound, and the
Immortal Lord Realm after that would only get harder.
It went without saying for the enigmatic Great Void Immortal
Realm, and the eventual goal of becoming an Eternal Immortal
Emperor.
Just as he was pondering this, he suddenly received an
Immortal Message Talisman. Even without looking, he could
guess that it was from Wu Hao.
"Here in Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm, only the three of
them would send me Message Talismans."

After opening it, he saw that it was indeed Wu Hao, telling Wu

Yu to come to the 1-Yuan Mystical Dragon Battlefield
immediately.
"Someone must be causing trouble because of me and Luo Pin.
I actually left her alone there....
"The opinion of the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king
is very important. I wonder what his judgment is!"
Wu Yu knew that what happened next would be key to whether
he could become immortal dao companions with Luo Pin!
He immediately dropped everything and charged out of Qinyin
Palace, which was in the clouds. He then zoomed towards
where Wu Hao and the others were.
Although the Primordial Immortal Empire was vast, Wu Yu
flew quickly. Before long, he was at the jade platform, where
mystical dragons were flying everywhere. There were hundreds
of thousands of them, and all of them immediately spotted Wu
Yu. They seemed to be trying to pressure him.
"That must be the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king!"
Wu Yu ignored all the other mystical dragons, and also the
dozens of dragon kings. He only had eyes for the Primordial
Immortal Dragon, who was even bigger and more terrifying
than the Baiyin Dragon King. He had reached a level that Wu
Yu could not even imagine.
He had already passed the Baiyin Dragon King’s test. Next, this
even more elite expert would test him.
"Wu Yu, come here."
Ye Qianning called out directions to Wu Yu. He dismissed his
Somersault Cloud and then landed swiftly by their side. First,
he noticed Luo Pin. He became angry. He could see that
someone had upset her.
Even he could not bear to make her angry, usually.
Wu Hao had already said that they would have to overcome
many obstacles if they wished to be together!
This was one of those hurdles. He first calmed her down and
then made a respectful greeting. "Humble Wu Yu greets the
Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king and the other
dragon kings."
Of course, many of the dragon kings had never seen him before.
They were all focused on him now.
"A 7-Yuan heavenly immortal? 8-Yuan heavenly immortal?"
The dragon kings began to evaluate Wu Yu based on his aura.
They were already very surprised because the rumors said that
they were both mortal domain people, and Wu Yu did not seem
old.
However, what made Wu Yu most unsettled was the Primordial
Immortal Empire’s dragon king. His eyes were as piercing as
knives, which seemed to shred Wu Yu apart. However, Wu Yu
had the Ruyi Jingu Bang fortifying him. The Baiyin Dragon
King could not see through him, and the Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king seemed to be the same, from the way he
was frowning.
When Wu Hao saw Wu Jun test him, he said to him secretly,
"Brother, I told you. The immortal who backs him is too
powerful to be tested! Too powerful!"
Wu Jun did not reply, but his expression showed that he agreed
with Wu Hao.
At this time, everyone was eagerly watching to see how things
would turn out. They expected that Wu Jun would banish Wu
Yu, or perhaps give him some punishment that would kill Luo
Pin’s interest.
"Seems like just an ordinary immortal. He might not be old, but
in the future, he won’t rise too high."
"How high can a mortal who has just ascended rise? Compared
to us mystical dragons, he’s a long shot away. I have no idea
what Luo Pin even sees in him. Even a mid-tier mystical dragon
like myself would look down on him."
"Well, understandable, I suppose. The mortal domain is a
frightfully barren place. It’s rare that two immortals can rise
from there. Of course they would take comfort in a like-minded
soul. After all, he’s the only immortal there in the mortal
domain." The mystical dragons made impolite comments as
they sized Wu Yu up.
"This guy is considered to be light years ahead of me? I think
he doesn’t even deserve to worship my feet." Yu Manyuan
snorted. He found this too laughable.
"I’ve never seen such a bimbotic ultimate mystical dragon
before. She must have never seen what good food looks like.
Even a humble bun would be a treasure. Everyone, we have to
understand that." Yu Manyuan was angry, and it showed in his
words.
Of course, it was because he had been angered by Luo Pin’s
words before. His belly full of spite was being vented through
these vindictive comments.
Wu Yu, Luo Pin, and basically everyone else heard him.
Wu Yu did not really care if he was attacked. But an affront to
Luo Pin, especially one so vile, could not be tolerated!
Wu Yu turned back, his own cold gaze meeting Yu Manyuan’s.
He did not know who this guy was, nor who was backing him.
It did not matter.
Wu Jun was still examining him.
Examine this, then!
Wu Yu turned, and everyone was surprised to see him
challenging the Clear Jade Xuan Dragon!
Yu Manyuan started and then snorted. "You? What is the
meaning of this? Are you challenging me? Are you unhappy
with what I just said? Do all mortal domain immortals think
that they’re the best in the world? Why don’t you lift your head
and look? Is this the same barren wasteland of yours, that birds
wouldn’t even deign to shit on?"
"Yuan Er, hush. Don’t make his head burst. Otherwise, if he
can’t progress any further after this, he will blame you." The
Jade Mirror Dragon King seemingly tried to stop him, but she
was equally scornful. Luo Pin’s words just now had lit the fire
in her heart as well.
Suddenly, the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king
spoke. "Wu Yu, you can test your skills against him. Show us
what Pin Er likes about you."
This silenced the entire crowd!
"What is the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king
thinking? An ordinary heavenly immortal against a 2-Xuan
immortal? This is truly light years apart...."
Many of the mystical dragons were speechless.
Even the dragon kings did not expect this.
Yu Manyuan immediately reacted, saying to Yu Manyuan,
"Son, acquit yourself well. The Primordial Immortal Empire’s
dragon king is giving you this chance to prove yourself. He
wants Luo Pin to see how useless these mortals are!"
She did not know what Wu Hao and Wu Jun had spoken about,
and her reaction was normal. The other dragon kings like the
Luminary Dragon King and the Interstellar Domain Dragon
King were probably also thinking the same thing.
But Wu Yu knew that Wu Jun was giving him a chance. Of
course, he also wanted to judge how strong the immortal
backing Wu Yu was.
Wu Yu was very grateful to Wu Hao. He not only thought that
Wu Yu was being backed, but he had also conveyed this to Wu
Jun, compelling him to seriously consider this matter.
Therefore, he immediately turned to Yu Manyuan, saying, "No
problem. I’m afraid that this punk will snivel when he loses
though."
Saying thus, he flew down to the battlefield. The battle was
over, but the mystical dragons backed off when Wu Yu landed,
giving them space to fight.
"Snivel?" Yu Manyuan almost doubled over from laughing.
"Son, make it a good show! Don’t just end it in an instant. Toy
with him," the Jade Mirror Dragon King said. She looked at Ye
Qianning contemptuously, as if to say, "Even though your
daughter is an ultimate mystical dragon, there’s something
wrong with her brain, and she’s not fit for my son."
Yu Manyuan had already gone after Wu Yu.
Xing Ling and Ye Xuanyi were left.
Ye Xuanyi said, "Who wins, who loses?"
Xing Ling started. "You’re asking that?"
"This Wu Yu is very bold. He might have something up his
sleeve."
"No amount of things up his sleeves will save him from that
sort of absolute power. They will be like petty magic tricks."
Ye Xuanyi laughed. "Don’t be so confident. If Yu Manyuan
loses, all of us youngsters of the Primordial Immortal Empire
will be disgraced. At that time, I’m afraid you’ll have to be the
one to go and win back our dignity."
Xing Ling shook his head. "You have too little faith in Yu
Manyuan. Although that kid is spoiled rotten by his mother,
he’s quite a capable fighter."
"What would you do if you fought?" Ye Xuanyi asked.
"Make him an invalid for a few thousand years. See if he dares
to come hanker over our mystical dragon tribe beauties after
that." Xing Ling smirked.
Ye Xuanyi smirked as well. "You do have quite some nasty
techniques, I’ll grant that."
"Indeed. Depends on who I’m against."
Hostility from all sides!
But this did not cow Wu Yu.
He lifted his head to look at her, and her passionate gaze fired
Wu Yu’s blood.
Such a beauty, whose heart was already one with his. It was
nothing to fight for her!
And this Yu Manyuan had a vile tongue. No man could stand
by and watch him attack Luo Pin like that.
"ROAR!"
The Clear Jade Xuan Dragon charged Wu Yu with cold fury.
All eyes!
"Filth, I will enjoy toying with you. I will embarrass you, and
that little beauty will see how useless you are! You dare to
come to the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm to take our
women? Today, I have to teach you the lesson of your life."
Of course, Yu Manyuan had said this secretly to Wu Yu.
"Enough nonsense. Let’s fight." Wu Yu dismissed his words.
He was already past the phase of shooting his mouth.
"Prepare yourself, then!" the Clear Jade Xuan Dragon growled.
His huge body shifted in the air, his head and tail connecting in
a complete circle!
The mystical dragons familiar with him knew what he was
about to do!
"He immediately used his Natural Mystique, not even an
immortal technique! Seems like Yu Manyuan really wants to
acquit himself!"
This Natural Mystique was the signature of the Jade Mirror
Dragon King, and it was well-feared.
"Clear Jade Amnesic Field!"
When his head and tail connected, they formed a full circle, and
powerful symbols began to form in the middle, coalescing into
a pair of cavernous, black and white eyes.
As the eyes burned on Wu Yu, he felt the power of the Clear
Jade Amnesic Field take hold. It could make one drowsy or be
controlled, just like a puppet.
If it succeeded, he could make a fool of Wu Yu.
The Clear Jade Amnesic Field was quite powerful, and Wu Yu
indeed felt his head go fuzzy!
However!
His eyes shone with golden flames, and he called forth his
buddha energy and immortal energy!
And then they blasted out from his eyes.
"Optics of Immortal Expanse!"
The sixth tier of the Eyes of Fire and Gold!
They blasted out!
The two golden pillars of fire shot out with frightening speed
and pierced the Clear Jade Amnesic Field!
In this fight, it was all too clear who was stronger. One was the
penetrating pillar, the other was a receiving hole! Yu
Manyuan’s Clear Jade Amnesic Field had been burned clean
through and was consumed by the flames!

"Ah!"
The prideful and puffed-up Yu Manyuan was completely on
fire now, his dragon scales scorched black. His entire body was
being tortured by Wu Yu, and his flesh and bones were also
severely burned!
Defeated in one move!
Wu Yu’s eyes were still burning, and the Clear Jade Xuan
Dragon was thrashing on the floor, getting more and more
charred. The flames were growing hotter and hotter. If no one
stopped this, he might be burned to death!
When the battle first started, everyone had been laughing and
analyzing it. Now, all were silent.
The Jade Mirror Dragon King had still been laughing,
completely unworried about her son. But now she shrieked, and
her voice almost made the little dragons faint.
"My son!"
The Jade Mirror Dragon King took to the air, screaming. Her
aura came sweeping over Wu Yu!
She actually attacked Wu Yu!
An attack from a Great Void Immortal Realm cultivator would
be fatal for Wu Yu. He could feel death descend upon him.
But in the next instant, he escaped death again. He had not seen
clearly, but he roughly knew that Ye Qianning had sent out a
beam of light that had dissipated the Jade Mirror Dragon King’s
aura. Wu Yu was unharmed.
"You!" The Jade Mirror Dragon King stared furiously at Ye
Qianning.
Ye Qianning shook her head. "Go and save your son. You still
have the heart for murder at this time? Ridiculous." The clash
between the two great dragon queens was thrilling to watch as
well. Clearly, Ye Qianning had won, and Wu Yu was only too
happy to back off. The Jade Mirror Dragon King dissipated the
flames on her son’s body. Seeing his charred body, she
quivered with rage as she sent a long scream towards the sky.
Her eyes were full of killing intent! Wu Yu did not dare to meet
her eyes at all.
Of course, Wu Yu also had a backer.
"Jade Mirror, return to your position." The Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king finally spoke. This was an order.
Seething, the Jade Mirror Dragon King could only comply.
Yu Manyuan was completely charred and severely injured. Of
course, he was still conscious. As the Jade Mirror Dragon King
helped him to take flight, Wu Yu met his eyes.
His black eyes were filled with terror.
"Who’s the trash? Take a look in the mirror." Wu Yu smiled at
him.
"Pah!" Yu Manyuan spat out another mouthful of blood, dyeing
the ground red.
He looked at the Jade Mirror Dragon King again. Her face was
as black as thunder, and she was trembling with rage. But under
the stern gaze of the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon
king, she could only return to her own position and treat her
son’s wounds!
The entire field was silent. The mystical dragons looked at Wu
Yu restlessly.
How had he done it? Destroy a Xuan immortal?
The fight had ended too fast, and no one could see what had
happened. Even now, they were still frozen, not sure as to what
had happened.
But without a doubt, they had underestimated Wu Yu! This guy
was really something!
At this time, the one who came in second place, Xing Ling,
suddenly said, "Based on Yu Manyuan underestimating him,
he used his full strength to defeat Yu Manyuan. Although his
strength is not bad, this was too much of a fluke. I feel like this
battle does not count for much, and doesn’t test Wu Yu’s true
strength."
Silence met his loud declaration.
"Xing Ling, shut it," the Interstellar Domain Dragon King said.
"No, Father, this punk has won unfairly. Doesn’t his win here
mean that none of us at the 1-Yuan age in the Primordial
Immortal Empire are his match? How will we look if word of
this gets out?" Xing Ling scoffed.
When the other mystical dragons heard this, they understood
the blow to their pride. Wu Yu had come to snatch their beauty,
and if news that he had one-shotted the battle got out, he would
be made out to be a legend. Such news could not be allowed to
get out.
Just as he finished speaking.
The Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king gave a small
laugh. "Alright, you go, then."
Xing Ling was a 3-Xuan immortal.
That was a level that would be challenging for Wu Yu to defeat.
However, the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king was
obviously intent on testing Wu Yu and measuring the depth of
his strength. He was also trying to guess the identity of the
immortal backing Wu Yu, the immortal who had given Wu Yu
a powerful legacy.
Wu Yu’s single fatal attack just now was insufficient for the
dragon king to discern the depths of Wu Yu’s strength or the
identity of this immortal.
Actually, the Interstellar Domain Dragon King had sensed that
something was amiss. However, it was too late. His son had
volunteered himself for battle, and the Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king had also announced the battle. So there
was nothing much that he could do.
"Xing Ling, do fight seriously. And give it your all. Do not be
complacent and relax your guard," he reminded.
"Father, do not worry. I know what to do," Xing Ling said as
he descended and landed before Wu Yu.
The two of them stared at each other. The mystical dragons
become excited again. Many dragon monarchs watched the
battle attentively.
Because this battle concerned the pride of the mystical dragons
of the Primordial Immortal Empire!
It was obvious that Wu Yu was young and had trained for less
than 1,000 years!
Whereas Xing Ling had trained for over 100,000 years.
This difference simply proved that Wu Yu was no ordinary
man. There had to be a reason why the Baiyin Dragon King
thought so highly of Wu Yu.
It was also because this battle concerned the pride of the young
mystical dragons in the Primordial Immortal Empire.
It would be embarrassing if news spread that their young
geniuses had failed to defeat a lowly immortal who had
ascended from the mortal domain, and allowed their tribe’s
young ultimate mystical dragon to marry him, an outsider!
Embarrassing!
"How dare you humiliate the Primordial Immortal Empire.
Even with the protection of two dragon kings, you will pay for
your actions. Wu Yu, don’t be too proud of yourself."
Xing Ling was much colder than Yu Manyuan. He was also
stronger, being a 3-Xuan immortal. He had been trained by the
Interstellar Domain Dragon King since young in dangerous
environments. Hence, he exuded a dangerous aura. This was
something that Yu Manyuan could never compare to.
Indeed, Xing Ling was a difficult opponent to defeat, especially
since Wu Yu was now lacking buddha energy and immortal
energy.
A 3-Xuan immortal had three immortal dao marks, which
would greatly boost his offensive abilities. Subtly, Wu Yu
could sense that Xing Ling’s three immortal dao marks had
already integrated into his mystiques.
This 3,000 Stellar Domain Dragon was covered in dragon
scales that looked like the starry sky. He soared in the sky and
was like a river of stars flowing in the sky.
Additionally, his three immortal dao marks transformed in his
dragon scales like three mystical dragons in the galaxy.
"Galactic Torrent!"
From high above the sky, Xing Ling looked down on Wu Yu
dismissively. Without warning, Xing Ling attacked simply and
violently with his Natural Mystique.
In an instant, the stars in the sky shone brilliantly. The river of
stars in the sky transformed into a waterfall and poured down
fiercely, sending endless stars rushing towards Wu Yu’s head!
In that instant, Wu Yu was about to be swallowed by this
Galactic Torrent! It was obvious that there were three types of
mighty powers in this Galactic Torrent. The first type of power
was sharp like swords. This power came from the density of the
star light. The second type of power was the unbelievable speed
that came from the downpour of the star river. The third type
of power came from the neat arrangement of the Galactic
Torrent. Vaguely, one could see a cone-like spirit design in this
Galactic Torrent. This was the power of dao, and it made this
mystique even more powerful and terrifying.
Wu Yu was unfazed in the face of such a strong mystique!
"Defeat him!" the mystical dragons roared, adding to Wu Yu’s
pressure.
Wu Yu simply glanced at Luo Pin. Upon seeing her supportive
smile, even with the objection of millions of mystical dragons,
Wu Yu’s determination to battle only became more resolute!
"Immortal Cloud Field!"
This was the fourth tier of the Somersault Cloud. The
Somersault Cloud exploded and dispersed. In an instant, it
stretched out over a large area and covered the place. The
clouds stretched upwards as well, attempting to engulf Xing
Ling!
In this instant, the Galactic Torrent sunk into the Immortal
Cloud Field!
Then it was as though those sharp stars had plunged into a
swamp. They could only make a large splash, causing a large
amount of clouds and fog to splatter. However, Xing Ling still
could not see where Wu Yu was at all!
At this moment, the Immortal Cloud Field had actually
switched to defense. While the endless Galactic Torrent rained
down, causing large splashes of clouds, this attack was
practically useless. It was like a steel hammer hitting cotton -
the impact of the hit was absorbed by the soft cotton and
rendered useless.
BOOM!
At this point, the Immortal Cloud Field rushed upwards. A
giant suddenly flew out from the clouds. This giant was
wielding the Ancient Immortal Tomahawk. He rushed up into
the sky and instantly appeared in front of Xing Ling!
"3,000 Boreal Slashes!"
Nine Aspects Vajra buddha energy, Bodhi immortal energy,
and the five times power multiplier from the Lawful
Embodiment of Heaven and Earth were combined together. Wu
Yu activated the Taigu Nine Immortals Genesis Design and
used the 3,000 Boreal Slashes immortal technique!
At this moment, Wu Yu’s body was as powerful as his
opponent’s. Since he had transformed into the Golden
Immortal Ape, he was, in fact, more domineering and fierce!
"Merak Star Armor!"
In haste, Xing Ling could only attempt to defend himself
against such a violent attack!
Bang, bang!
The 3,000 Boreal Slashes were quick and fierce. Wu Yu relied
on his top immortal strength and tore apart Xing Ling’s defense
with the Ancient Immortal Tomahawk. After one attack, Xing
Ling screamed pitifully, "I admit defeat! I admit defeat!"
It turned out that Xing Ling was actually just a paper tiger.
Everyone had clearly heard Xing Ling’s pathetic wail of defeat.
Wu Yu also stopped attacking upon Xing Ling’s admit of
defeat. Actually, it had been more strenuous for him to defeat
Xing Ling. He was at his limit now.
After all, Wu Yu had many demon mystiques and immortal
mystiques that could not be used here. For instance, he could
not use Ao Yang and Ao Ding’s mystiques in this battle.
Besides, he had a weakness. His immortal energy and buddha
energy were lacking compared to his cultivation level. His
cultivation level was high, but he lacked buddha energy. Many
of his Bodhi Seeds were dim, and right now, there were not
many lit Bodhi Seeds in his immortal body.
However, he had defeated Xing Ling!
Wu Yu had dispersed his powers instantly. He did not want to
expose too much of his powers to the Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king. Hence, he limited the performance of his
powers. He stopped using his Immortal Ape Transformation
and Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth.
Xing Ling was now covered in blood. He landed on the ground
at a loss, and he could only sense the regretful and disappointed
eyes of the surrounding mystical dragons. These looks were
torture to him.
"I did not expect Xing Ling to be so useless. He lost instantly.
Sigh....."
"This is really humiliating. It is no wonder that people say that
our Primordial Immortal Empire had not had a mystical dragon
worthy of being called a genius in the last 120,000 years."
"Xing Ling is a genius to have reached that cultivation level.
But this was a battle of pride, and he admitted defeat so quickly!
This is so embarrassing!"
These words were more hurtful to Xing Ling than Wu Yu’s
attacks. He regretted his words of defeat just now. Blood rushed
to his head and he shouted at Wu Yu again, "The previous battle
is not valid. We will fight again!"
"Forget it, a loser has no right to become my opponent," Wu
Yu said lightly.
He was very direct, and after arriving here, he had been
speaking with his strength. He had proved himself in spite of
the mystical dragons’ criticisms.
"So young and actually managing to defeat a 3-Xuan immortal
with only a Heavenly immortal’s strength! How long has it
been since such a genius has appeared in our Primordial
Immortal Empire?"
"Speaking of talent, I don’t think Luo Pin’s talent can match his
talent."
"Don’t forget, he is younger than Luo Pin."
The mystical dragons were engaged in heated discussions, and
they now looked at Wu Yu differently.

"Xing Ling, stop embarrassing yourself. Return to your seat,"

the Interstellar Domain Dragon King said with a livid
expression.
"Wu Yu, I will seek vengeance for the humiliation that you
have given me today! No matter how strong you are, she will
never belong to you! We have many talented and handsome
youths in our mystical dragon tribe. There is no place for a
lowly immortal like you!"
Xing Ling cursed and then flew away enraged. He was the first
to leave the place. To the audience, Xing Ling’s last sentence
was actually laughable, because a loser’s words were nothing
more than a joke.
Now the Jade Mirror Dragon King, the Interstellar Domain
Dragon King, and the Luminary Dragon King had all shut their
mouths. They had thought that they would be the ones causing
trouble for Wu Hao and Ye Qianning today. After all, they did
not understand why Wu Yu was allowed to stay and be in a
relationship with Luo Pin. However, after the battles, they
could tell that Wu Yu was indeed talented and was no ordinary
character.
"Baiyin Dragon King, forgive my question. How can an
immortal who has ascended from the mortal domain possess
such strength?" The Luminary Dragon King frowned and
voiced out his doubts.
Wu Hao was actually very proud of Wu Yu’s performance. He
was in high spirits now and answered, "Actually, Luminary
Dragon King, you must have guessed the answer already. If not
for the mysterious and powerful immortal backing Wu Yu,
would I allow him to continue having a relationship with my
precious daughter?"
Wu Hao had said this aloud for the benefit of the crowd as well.
The mystical dragons were astonished!
Now they knew the reason!
It was no wonder this Wu Yu was so powerful.
Those who had wanted to stop Wu Yu or were displeased with
Wu Yu and Luo Pin’s relationship were depressed upon hearing
Wu Hao’s proclamation. Wu Yu’s strength, talent, and
mysterious background had actually made them feel helpless.
"Baiyin Dragon King, you are really secretive. Why did you
not explain that in the first place and waited until now to let us
know?!" The Jade Mirror Dragon King burst out in anger.
"I think it’s best that you shut up. Weren’t you the one who
started challenging Wu Yu in the first place? You should leave
with your son as soon as possible. Don’t let him die here." Ye
Qianning despised the Jade Mirror Dragon King and retorted to
the dragon king’s outburst.
It was only now that Wu Yu realized that Luo Pin’s adoptive
mother was not always a mild person, especially when she
faced the Jade Mirror Dragon King.
Wu Yu guessed that it was because the Jade Mirror Dragon
King had managed to give birth to a son, while the Baiqin
Dragon Queen had failed to conceive despite trying very hard.
This disappointment would only be worse for the Baiqin
Dragon Queen because she and her dao companion were the
rare powerful Primordial Immortal Dragons, yet they had failed
to reproduce. Hence, she must have endured over 100,000 years
of the Jade Mirror Dragon King’s boasting. Now Ye Qianning
had finally grabbed the chance to retort fiercely against the Jade
Mirror Dragon King.
Her words had almost made the Jade Mirror Dragon King cry
in anger. The Jade Mirror Dragon King could only glare
fiercely at Ye Qianning and give her an empty threat. After that,
she bade farewell to the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon
king and wanted to leave.
"Don’t leave yet." Unexpectedly, the Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king did not allow her to leave.
The Jade Mirror Dragon King was stunned.
At this moment, the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon
king’s eyes locked onto Ye Xuanyi.
"Don’t you think that your championship is being threatened?
That you have not truly won it?" the Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king asked.
Ye Xuanyi had lied low and kept quiet after watching how Wu
Yu had defeated Xing Ling. He thought that Xing Ling’s defeat
would simply pass and Wu Yu’s test of strength would end.
Unexpectedly, Wu Jun had now turned his attention to him.
Actually, Wu Yu had also thought that his test had ended. After
all, he had displayed his strength. Besides, he actually would
not dare to challenge a 4-Xuan immortal. After the first two
battles, his weakness had been exposed. It was known that he
lacked immortal energy and that he had already depleted
whatever immortal energy he had.
The Luminary Dragon King quickly said, "I think that there is
no need for more battles. We all know now that this Wu Yu is
very strong. He is a genius. There is no need for Xuanyi to test
him again."
Wu Jun shook his head.
He looked at Wu Yu and said, "If you can defeat Ye Xuanyi, I
will bestow the Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree upon you.
With the decree, you may enter and exit the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm freely. You will also possess a status equivalent
to that of a dragon monarch."
Wu Yu was surprised.
He was aware of the Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree.
With that item, he could live openly here. He could move freely
through the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm, entering and
exiting as he wished. Whereas even Luo Pin, Ye Xuanyi, and
their peers could not exit the realm freely.
His status would be equivalent to a dragon monarch’s. This
meant that the dragon monarchs could no longer order Wu Yu
around.
While not explicit, these conditions actually showed that Wu
Jun was supportive of the relationship between Wu Yu and Luo
Pin. By giving Wu Yu the authority to enter and exit the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm freely, Wu Jun was also
giving his permission for Wu Yu and Luo Pin’s relationship to
develop naturally.
Hence, even if Wu Yu only had 30% confidence in winning the
battle, he would give it his all! That was the only way to truly
earn Wu Jun’s acceptance!
"Okay!" Wu Yu agreed to the battle readily.
Ye Xuanyi had achieved his goal of clinching first.
Obviously, he was undoubtedly the number one in many
people’s eyes.
Regarding Wu Yu, he had seen Yu Manyuan and Xing Ling
losing to Wu Yu consecutively and embarrassing themselves in
the process. His experience was telling him it would be best to
not act recklessly before a mysterious person like Wu Yu.
Even if he defeated Wu Yu, the most he would gain would be
more admirers and nothing else.
But the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king wanted him
to fight Wu Yu.
Ye Xuanyi exchanged a glance with his father.
"Father, what does he want?"
"He probably isn’t fully confident in you defeating Wu Yu and
regaining respect for the younger mystical dragons in the
Primordial Immortal Empire. This might be part of his
objective, but more likely, he wants to see Wu Yu’s limits."
In the previous battle against Xing Ling, Wu Yu finished the
battle swiftly. Perhaps Wu Jun hadn’t seen enough.
"What should I do, then?" asked Ye Xuanyi.
"Defeat him." The Luminary Dragon King knew clearly that
this was the only way.
It wasn’t just for the face of the Primordial Immortal Empire, it
was also for the faces of the father and son.
Ye Xuanyi nodded. Standing from above, he stared down at Wu
Yu. He was infuriated when Wu Yu agreed to the battle readily
without hesitation previously.
In the Primordial Immortal Empire, he had been regarded as a
genius for a very long time and had seen many large occasions.
Now that he was gradually emerging before the eyes of the
crowd, many were cheering for him.
"Ye Xuanyi, do your best. If you lose too, we won’t be able to
face others in the future once news of what happened today gets
out!"
"Ye Xuanyi and Xing Ling might have lost, but Ye Xuanyi
definitely won’t. After all, he’s slightly older. In fact, he’s close
to achieving his fifth immortal dao mark."
Every mystical dragon, every gaze he could see, and every
sentence he heard were suggesting that the current moment was
more anticipated than when he clinched the crown previously.
This was more enthralling than when he defeated Xing Ling
easily to clinch the win previously.
He knew that if he lost, both his father and him would be utterly
embarrassed.
Now he was the only one among those below 120,000 years old
that could still stand opposite of Wu Yu.
Looking at this outsider throwing his weight around on his
territory, Ye Xuanyi was seething in anger too.
He stared intensely at Wu Yu, but Wu Yu was indifferent. It
was as though Wu Yu didn’t think much of him.
Ye Xuanyi took the initiative to propose, "It would be a little
boring to just start the fight like this. Why don’t we put up
something as a reward?"
Since he was going to defeat Wu Yu, he wanted him to lose
even more. Otherwise, gaining a better reputation from
defeating him would be too meaningless.
Wu Yu was stumped but replied, "Feel free to propose."
Ye Xuanyi had thought about it. Amidst the curiosity of the
crowd, he said, "If you win, you will get the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Decree, which places you as the equivalent of an
immortal lord. You have much to gain from it, and many would
probably be envious of you. In that case, if you lose, you shall
get out of the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm immediately
and never return here again. Do you dare to accept?"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding mystical dragons burst into
an uproar before Wu Yu could react.
"Indeed, if you lose, get out of the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm immediately."
This wasn’t showing disrespect to the Baiyin Dragon King.
After all, this battle was raised by the Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king, and everything would be determined on
the battleground.
"I’m guessing you don’t have the guts," added Ye Xuanyi.
Wu Yu waved his hand. Since he had agreed to the battle, he
was fearless. He questioned, "What happens if you lose?"
Ye Xuanyi answered, "Why don’t you tell me what you want
from me?"
The truth was, Wu Yu had not thought of anything suitable. He
was also too lazy to put his focus on this wager. Looking at how
confident Ye Xuanyi was, and to exert some pressure on him,
he chuckled. "In that case, you shall get lost from the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm and never return. However, noting
your young and fragile mind, hmm.... Why not set the limit to
10,000 years? That will do, or you might be too scared to even
fight to the death. If you lose, get lost from this place and you
can only return after 10,000 years."
One was eternity, while the other was 10,000 years.
It might seem like Ye Xuanyi had gotten the better end of the
deal, but this wasn’t the case. This was because the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm was his home. As for Wu Yu, even if
he couldn’t enter the place, there would be a day when Luo Pin
could get out.
"This won’t do!" Ye Xuanyi was unnerved. Seeing Wu Yu not
showing any fear till now had intimidated him.
"Haha...." Wu Yu laughed heartily. "If you don’t have the guts,
let’s do away with the wager and let’s start the battle, coward."
Ye Xuanyi had acted haughtily and allowed Wu Yu to propose
what he wanted. In the end, he was intimidated. In their first
clash, Wu Yu had an overwhelming advantage mentally. This
left the countless mystical dragons furious and embarrassed.
Ye Xuanyi was infuriated. He knew that he had to finish the
battle swiftly, defeating Wu Yu with overwhelming strength to
mend his image. After all, he was going to be involved in
something more important soon.
The Taiyi Luminary Celestial Dragon had eyes that resembled
two blazing torches. Without saying a word, he was about to
strike.
However, he acted differently from other mystical dragons.
Other mystical dragons would often use their Natural
Mystiques.
The Taiyi Luminary Celestial Dragon naturally had his Natural
Mystiques too. However, he retrieved an immortal treasure at
this point instead!
Demons and immortal beasts could also master immortal
treasures. However, most of them were more willing to spend
their time mastering their Natural Mystiques. Those were their
strongest moves. For them, an immortal treasure would just be
used for supporting.
However, this seemed to be the main offensive means of this
Taiyi Luminary Celestial Dragon.
A giant, snow-white dragon insignia sword came before the
eyes of the crowd.
That sword hung over Wu Yu’s head like a huge mountain.
Other than the boundless might of the immortal designs, Wu
Yu could also sense ancient vibes from it!
Its boundless dominance and might were on a whole new level!
This was definitely an ancient immortal treasure!
Only when the immortal design had over 10,000,000 spirit
designs would it be considered an ancient immortal treasure.
Many Nine Xuan Dao Realm immortals owned ancient
immortal treasure, ancient true immortal medicines, and
ancient immortal talismans.
However, few immortal beasts owned ancient immortal
treasures. Relying on their powerful Natural Mystiques, they
could even counter ancient immortal treasures.
Who would have thought that this Taiyi Luminary Celestial
Dragon had an ancient immortal treasure. Moreover, it wasn’t
an ordinary ancient immortal treasure. With just a single
glance, one could tell it had several tens of millions of spirit
designs. Among ancient immortal treasures, it would be
considered as above average!
At this point, Wu Yu heard a reminder from Ye Qianning. "The
Luminary Celestial Dragon Mantra Sword is pretty powerful.
Be careful."
Ye Xuanyi wanted to crush Wu Yu like a hurricane.
When Wu Yu saw the Luminary Celestial Dragon Mantra
Sword, his eyes lit up and he said, "Wait a minute, I just thought
of a good prize for our wager."
"What do you mean?"
"As you have said, if you win, I will leave. If you lose, you
won’t have to leave for 10,000 years. You just have to give me
the sword you are holding!"
"YOU!"
"It sounds like you are still afraid. Or perhaps you are extremely
worried and believe you will definitely lose to me?"
Wu Yu said this with a chuckle, but Ye Xuanyi got more and
more gloomy.
Ye Xuanyi had rejected him once. However, the key was that
he had proposed to have a prize for this battle.
Wu Yu was daring. If he didn’t dare to agree, it would be
perfect proof that he believed he wouldn’t be a match for Wu
Yu and therefore was intimidated.
Whether or not this was what he truly thought, others would
believe this was the case after hearing their conversation.
"Let it be, then! Take this!"
Ye Xuanyi was fuming.
Before the battle started, he was suppressed by Wu Yu with
mere words several times. He could see the disappointment in
the eyes of the other mystical dragons.

Just an hour ago, he was the man of the hour and everyone’s
attention was on him!
And now, he could sense disdainful eyes towards him.
This wasn’t something he could endure.
"No matter how good you are with words, strength is
everything!"
Ye Xuanyi berated.
He flew in the sky and the immortal energy around him started
coiling around the Luminary Celestial Dragon Mantra Sword.
When tens of millions of spirit designs were triggered, trillions
of sword qi rays burst forth!
BOOM!
Wu Yu stomped on the ground and surged into the sky. While
soaring into the sky, his body transformed into a savage-
looking golden ape through the Immortal Ape Transformation!
Immediately after, he grew exponentially larger. His 12-zhang
body was no smaller than the mystical dragon!
He charged straight towards the terrifying sword formation that
was released.
"100,000 Dragons Immortal Butchering Design!" Ye Xuanyi
released 100,000 immortal dragons from his sword, and the
immortal dragons morphed into dragon-shaped sword qi!
They looked ferocious and frightening.
However, at this moment, Wu Yu rushed towards the 100,000
Dragons Immortal Butchering design and used the Immortal
Cloud Field!
It was the Somersault Cloud again!
The Somersault Cloud expanded swiftly, and the endless
clouds devoured his opponent and immortal design!
Within it, Wu Yu could use Fulgurating Shadows as he wished.
For the other party, regardless if it was the rampaging of sword
qi or the movements of the main body, he felt like he had sunk
into a viscous swamp. His movements were restricted by the
strange cloud, so it was hard for him to move!
"What kind of strange mystique is this?"
Ye Xuanyi was flustered. In fact, he had witnessed it before.
However, Wu Yu had used it for defense previously and hadn’t
used it to surround his opponent.
He calmed himself quickly despite getting restrained. Once he
locked on to Wu Yu, he triggered the 100,000 rays of sword qi
to forcefully rip through the Immortal Cloud Field to pursue
Wu Yu relentlessly!
"You can’t escape!"
"Really?" Wu Yu smiled.
Weng!
100,000 doppelgangers popped out in the Immortal Cloud
Field. Although they weren’t strong individuals, their strength
was in numbers. Wu Yu’s doppelgangers had the Taiyi
Luminary Celestial Dragon completely surrounded!
Unshackled Doppelganger!
Comparable to the 100,000 immortal dragons made of sword
qi, it would be one against one!
This time, it wasn’t the immortal dragon sword qi pursuing Wu
Yu. Instead, Wu Yu’s doppelgangers moved to take on each of
the 100,000 immortal dragons made of sword qi!
As for his main body, he moved silently above his opponent’s
head!
Fulgurating Shadows! The Immortal Cloud Field was Wu Yu’s
domain!
Ye Xuanyi’s sword formation was broken through!
However, this wasn’t the end.
He noticed that Wu Yu was coming down on him with the
Ancient Immortal Tomahawk and casting 3,000 Boreal
Slashes!
"Tsk!"
Ye Xuanyi wasn’t panicking. Opening his mouth slightly, a
huge column of light soared into the sky!
Wu Yu was falling and happened to be devoured by the light
column!
"Mastering this mystique to this extent at such a young age
must not have been easy, Ye Xuanyi!"
Other dragon lords and dragon kings exclaimed in surprise.
That light column was so bright and glaring that it almost cut
through Wu Yu’s Immortal Cloud Field.
After all, the other party had the immortal energy of a 4-Xuan
immortal. He also possessed four immortal dao marks as the
base of his strength.
Within that light column, the four types of dao transformed
marvelously and tore apart Wu Yu’s most confident move, the
Immortal Cloud Field!
Wu Yu’s cultivation level was not considered low, but he still
lacked immortal energy and buddha energy.
He felt very pressured as he faced Ye Xuanyi’s attacks.
At this moment, he looked as though he was about to be
engulfed by the light column! The 3,000 Boreal Slashes in his
hands was also about to be destroyed!
Everything was happening in a flash!
All the mystical dragons were on the verge of bursting out in
triumphant cheers. They could vaguely see the difference in
strength between the two. Wu Yu indeed had a lot of moves,
but Ye Xuanyi definitely surpassed him in absolute power!
However, at that moment, Wu Yu suddenly disappeared in
front of the light column.
Fulgurating Shadows!
Ye Xuanyi had used up all his strength to launch this attack, but
it had failed to hit Wu Yu.
At the next moment, Wu Yu appeared right below him.
When Ye Xuanyi finally saw where Wu Yu was, he had already
felt a terrifying attack rushing towards him!
"Spirit Chaser Art!"
Ye Xuanyi could not defend against this attack at all. His
immortal spirit was hit!
“Howl!”
That huge mystical dragon howled out in pain.
The audience’s heartstrings were once again taut with
suspense.
In the next instant, Wu Yu’s thick, muscular arms swelled with
strength. He had obviously used the Violent Art again!
BOOM!
He used the 3,000 Boreal Slashes again, and this time, he
executed it after the Spirit Chaser Art. He was now engaged in
close-range combat with his opponent!
Ye Xuanyi’s dragon fangs, claws, and tail were shining with
piercing, white light. His immortal energy burst out as he
attempted to tear Wu Yu apart!
However, at this point, when Wu Yu had already used his
Violent Art, Ye Xuanyi’s vibrant immortal energy was no
competition for Wu Yu’s great physical strength and agility!
Kill, kill, kill!
Wu Yu unleashed a frenzy of violent attacks on Ye Xuanyi!
After Wu Yu’s attacks had breached Ye Xuanyi’s defenses, his
3,000 Boreal Slashes tore into Xuanyi’s dragon scales
continuously, drawing blood with each slash.
"You!"
Wu Yu was cold, violent, and swift. He stood before Ye Xuanyi
with an overbearing presence, causing the latter to break down!
Ye Xuanyi was entirely suppressed!
He could even see a black flame burning on Wu Yu!
After these black color flames started burning, Wu Yu seemed
even more terrifying.
Actually, Ye Xuanyi did not know that this was the Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast’s ability to immolate. Without
immolating some of his immortal energy, Wu Yu would never
have been able to break through Ye Xuanyi’s defenses and
suppress him entirely.
After all, there was still a distinct gap in strength between the
two of them.
However, since he had chosen to immolate, Wu Yu would
never allow Ye Xuanyi the opportunity to escape!
In an instant, blood spilled within the Immortal Cloud Field!
The mystical dragon screamed painfully!
"That’s enough!" The Luminary Dragon King was trembling
with fury. With a wave of his hand, his son passed through the
Immortal Cloud Field and was summoned to him. At this point,
Ye Xuanyi was covered in blood and at the brink of death. If
not for the Luminary Dragon King rescuing him, Ye Xuanyi
would only be in a worse state of defeat.
Of course, Wu Yu was in no better state. He was already
lacking energy before the battle, and now that he had
immolated, he was fatigued. He could only withdraw his
powers and transform back into his human form. He landed on
the ground. While he was pale, his intrinsic domineering aura
and extreme talent had been well exhibited!
When the audience saw that Wu Yu was practically unhurt,
while Ye Xuanyi was in a terrible state, they were shocked to
their cores!
Wu Yu had surpassed the limits of their imaginations!
At this moment, the mystical dragons stared at each other with
gloomy expressions. There was nothing else that they could do.
They had lost completely.
If the news of today’s battles had spread out, Wu Yu would
become famous and their Primordial Immortal Empire would
only end up as the laughing stock of the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm. The young mystical dragons would now find
it difficult to stand tall and proud after their geniuses had lost
to a mere immortal from the mortal domain.
However, there was one truth that everyone acknowledged.
It was not that the Primordial Immortal Empire lacked talents,
it was just that Wu Yu’s talent was heaven-defying!
He had ascended from the mortal domain and had not trained
for long as an immortal. In the future, there was no doubt that
he would become an extreme expert!
Perhaps it was at this point that more mystical dragons
understood why the Baiyin Dragon King couple was willing to
recognize and accept Wu Yu. Wu Yu had earned their
recognition and acceptance with his own talent and strength.
The battle had ended!
It left the audience speechless.
Wu Yu rushed into the sky and grabbed the huge Luminary
Celestial Dragon Mantra Sword. He then grinned at Ye Xuanyi
and said, "I thank you, Brother Ye, for your generosity. I will
definitely take good care of it from now on."
This ancient immortal treasure had finally landed in Wu Yu’s
hands.
This was another great reward for today’s battles! This was a
much preferred reward compared to having Ye Xuanyi leave
this place for 10,000 years. That would not benefit Wu Yu at
all!
"Don’t celebrate too early. One day, I will get it back even if I
no longer need it!" Ye Xuanyi snarled.
"Looks like you still have some confidence in your future. I
wonder, how long will you take to complete this goal?" Wu Yu
chuckled.
Ye Xuanyi could not answer. His expression was bitter.
"I’m afraid that by that time, I might have forgotten about Ye
Xuanyi and will wonder which nameless pawn you are." When
Wu Yu said that, he stopped smiling.
Such humiliating words only made Ye Xuanyi’s face darken
further. Of course, as his father, the Luminary Dragon King was
furious. However, a defeat was a defeat - he recognized the
result.
"I congratulate the Baiyin Dragon King and the Baiqin Dragon
Queen. I also congratulate the Primordial Immortal Empire’s
dragon king. Wu Yu is an extreme genius, and the immortal
backing him is definitely terrifying. He is indeed a good match
for Luo Pin. We have no objections. In the future, we will also
no longer complain about Wu Yu’s presence in our Primordial
Immortal Empire," the Luminary Dragon King said seriously.
"I shall bring my son back to tend to his injuries," the Jade
Mirror Dragon King announced.
"Me too."
The three dragon kings could not bear to stay a second longer.
They had chosen to leave before the Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king could say anything. After all, they had
embarrassed themselves greatly today. While they had earned
the top three positions in the trial, they could not feel happy
about that.
The other mystical dragons were also depressed.
Although, they were impressed with Wu Yu’s battle abilities.
If such a genius had truly joined the Primordial Immortal
Empire, then the future of the Primordial Immortal Empire
would only be brighter.
Everyone was in anticipation.
They wanted to see what the Primordial Immortal Empire’s
dragon king would do next.
Would he really take out the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Decree?

Just as the audience were thinking about that, the Primordial

Immortal Empire’s dragon king had already taken out the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree and handed it over to Wu
Yu.
Wu Yu took the decree. That was a white token. It was larger
and its design was more complicated than the Dragon Immortal
Pass. There was a white ancient mystical dragon carved on the
token.
This material was definitely of ancient immortal treasure level.
It was probably made from a precious artifact with hundreds of
spiritual marks.
There was a complicated immortal design within the token, so
no one else could forge this. Besides, this was unique and
belonged only to one individual, as Wu Yu’s name was already
carved on the token. As long as one exerted some immortal
energy on the token, Wu Yu’s appearance would surface.
"Congratulations. From now on, you are part of the Primordial
Immortal Empire." The Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon
king finally smiled.
In the future, he could enter and exit the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm freely. That would be convenient for him.
The Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree would give him a status
equivalent to that of a dragon monarch. This battle was worth
it.
The Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king looked at Wu
Yu and said, "In the future, if you meet the immortal who has
passed you his immortal’s legacy, greet him on behalf of me.
He is indeed a supreme expert. I am deeply impressed."
"I will definitely pass the message." Wu Yu nodded
respectfully.
"But." The Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king looked
at Wu Yu then at Luo Pin and continued speaking, "The two of
you are still young. There is a long road ahead of you.
According to the rules of our Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm,
young mystical dragons have to be at least 10,000 years old
before they can be married. And become immortal dao
companions. So you two should still continue to be dating.
Don’t be too conspicuous during the course of your courtship."
Wu Yu was dumbfounded.
There was indeed such a rule, but....
Forget it. Anyway, this rule would not affect their relationship.
It was only a matter of a marriage status.
Luo Pin was also in no rush. To immortals, 10,000 years was
considered as a very short period of time. Wu Yu had to adjust
to this new timeframe.
The Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king looked at the
mystical dragons around them.
"Their relationship is not official until the day that they hold
their wedding ceremony. You should not be gossiping about
their relationship. Wu Yu is now simply a genius immortal who
is willing to work for our Primordial Immortal Empire."
The dragon king’s statement was very odd. To a number of
mystical dragons, they might think that this would mean that
they could always go back on their word about Wu Yu and Luo
Pin’s relationship as long as the wedding ceremony was not
held.
But Wu Yu knew that the dragon king was actually protecting
him and Luo Pin. The gossip about their relationship had spread
like wildfire, and if stronger mystical dragons or other Hundred
Empires Dragon Kings were alarmed, they could pose a danger
to Wu Yu.
After all, there would always be someone who would feel that
Wu Yu’s relationship with Luo Pin was inappropriate and
would interfere.
Wu Yu only wanted to live with Luo Pin peacefully, to train
and become stronger together. In fact, he had no need to remain
in the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm and could explore the
realms outside. He could treat the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm as his home because Luo Pin was here.
Wu Yu looked at Luo Pin. She gazed back at him with tears
shining in her eyes. She was obviously pleased.
"You may all leave now. Disperse," the Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king said.
At this moment, the Misty Dragon King asked, "There is
something that I’m not too clear about. Since Wu Yu is
considered a member of our Primordial Immortal Empire now,
and he has defeated the top three of our trial, will the third
person to enter the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory be Yu
Manyuan or Wu Yu?"
The Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king was taken
aback. He had obviously not considered this question.
This was because Wu Yu could not be considered as having
taken part in the trial.
"Yu Manyuan."
Wu Jun finally said.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that. Wu Jun was
still fair and did not give Wu Yu any special privileges. While
Wu Yu had fulfilled the conditions and was very strong, the
other mystical dragons had gone through the trial and prevailed
at the end of the trial. Wu Yu did not have the special
permission to be considered one of the top three just by
defeating them.
Besides, there was no precedent of outsiders taking part in the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, a grand affair of the mystical
dragon tribe.
After the announcements, Wu Jun turned to Wu Hao and said,
"Make some dishes for supper. Take out your ancient immortal
essence wine. We shall drink as brothers."
Wu Hao was instantly glum. However, he still agreed. "Of
course, no problem."
"Are you reluctant to serve your precious wine? Haha. This is
a happy event, we have to celebrate. You can’t just hide and
enjoy it alone!"
Wu Jun left after speaking. Ye Qianning gestured to Wu Yu
and Luo Pin. She was going to bring the two of them back to
the palace. The other mystical dragons were deep in
conversation and had also left the 1-Yuan Mystical Dragon
Battlefield.
Wu Yu recalled that Yu Manyuan and the others had to take
part in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
He had some impression of that event, so he searched Ao
Ding’s memories. He discovered that this was a grand event
that concerned the entire Sky Heart Tribe. It was designed
specifically for mystical dragons younger than one yuan old.
The reason for this trial was to determine the top three young
mystical dragons who would be taking part in the great battle
during the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
The Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory was actually a prison.
It was used to incarcerate the criminals of the mystical dragon
tribe.
Moreover, they were basically all offenders that had been
sentenced to death.
Some of them were immortals or ghostly immortals.
However, the majority of them were mystical dragons. They
had committed heinous crimes, brought harm to their own kind,
or betrayed their comrades.
The mystical dragon tribe had a long history. There were lots
of immortals that had harmed mystical dragons.
In fact, the number of people in it was still increasing.
The Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory would be opened once every
thousand years for the younger generation of mystical dragons
as a trial.
The nine major tribes would take turns to open it.
It had been 9,000 years since the Sky Heart tribe opened their
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
This time, it would open in seven years.
The Primordial Immortal Empire had three slots.
The assessment today was to determine who would receive the
rights for the three slots.
All three of them were fresh and had not participated 9,000
years ago. Moreover, they were all sons of dragon kings and
below 20,000 years old.
The truth was that anyone below one yuan of age would fulfill
the requirements.
Elite geniuses below one yuan were scarce and few in the
Primordial Immortal Empire. Ye Xuanyi and the others would
probably need several cycles of 9,000 years before they would
have strength close to the Immortal Lord Realm and could
finally match the geniuses from the other tribes.
For other mystical dragons, if they could become Xuan
immortals in one yuan, it would be commendable.
Wu Yu didn’t know about the details of the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory right now. The Primordial Immortal Empire’s
dragon king had announced the candidates, and Wu Yu didn’t
want to complicate the issue. After all, the main reason he was
here was to be with Luo Pin. Therefore, he didn’t try to find out
more and left this matter aside.
Moreover, he had something that he had to do soon.
The Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi would have to
challenge the Great Trial of the Immortal Dao and the Great
Trial of the Ghostly Dao soon.
Mystical dragons were everywhere in the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm, so it wouldn’t be very appropriate to do that
here. As he now had the Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree, he
was thinking of heading to the Dragon Immortal Sky for them
to challenge their Great Trials, become immortals, and
complete the most important final step.
Wu Hao and Ye had only allowed Wu Yu to live in the Qinyin
Palace. Wu Yu didn’t want them to know that he had brought
others along.
The commotion from challenging the Great Trial would be
rather huge, so he naturally wanted to find a more hidden place.
However, he wasn’t in a rush. Wu Yu had told Luo Pin that he
would be heading out after preparing for 10 days.
Regardless, Luo Pin would still need a long time to "grow up."
Wu Hao was in high spirits. When he returned to Qinyin Palace,
he prepared a sumptuous feast. He probably knew Wu Yu was
exhausted, so the dishes he prepared were nourishing.
After which, he took out his ancient immortal essence wine that
he had preserved for a long time. This time, Wu Yu restrained
himself. This was because the Primordial Immortal Empire’s
dragon king, Wu Jun, was here too. Just the two brothers alone
were sufficient to liven up the place.
"Brother, I’m really envious of you. You have a child, and God
damn, you even have a son-in-law now. Yet, here I am, still
alone!" Wu Jun took a look at Luo Pin and Wu Yu and couldn’t
be more envious.
Ye Qianning said, "Big Brother, that’s because you didn’t want
one and you sent Luo Pin to us. You can’t go back on your
word~"
Initially, Luo Pin was sent to Wu Jun for him to take care of.
However, he had no time to guide Luo Pin. Therefore, he asked
Ye Qianning to be her master. In the end, Ye Qianning took her
in as a foster child directly. Wu Jun regretted that he hadn’t
thought of this at the beginning....
"Uncle, we are one family. Pin Er will also be filial to you." Wu
Yu was surprised by how tactful Luo Pin was. She had been the
Lord of the Four Seas for so many years and was probably used
to being domineering in how she acted. Now that she was in the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm and faced these elite dragon
kings, she knew that she had to recognize where she stood.
Moreover, these dragon kings were all hundreds of thousands
of years old - being respectful to them was a given.
"Pin Er is really good with words. I’m so grateful. Come, let’s
have a toast! No one shall rest before getting drunk today!"
"This won’t do. Drink less. I don’t have much wine left!" Wu
Hao was also tipsy by now.
"What a miser! I’m drinking your wine, not asking for your life.
Bring it out!"
Both of them were of a certain age, yet they had gotten into a
quarrel so casually.
However, one could tell that they were truly happy.
After having a good meal, Wu Jun patted Wu Yu’s shoulder
and asked, "You know about the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory,
right? That’s a great trial, and it helps any young man or woman
greatly. That is also an opportunity that many young men and
women covet. You defeated Ye Xuanyi today. If I had
announced that I would be swapping you in for Yu Manyuan,
no one would have objected to it. However, I didn’t do so. Do
you know why?"
Wu Yu nodded and said, "That’s because my identity of being
an immortal would be an eyesore in that place. Others would
investigate my background and identity and eventually learn
about my relationship with Luo Pin. As she’s an ultimate
mystical dragon, it wouldn’t be good for us if other elite dragon
kings or even dragon emperors heard about us. They might
even make things a lot harder for us."
Wu Jun nodded and remarked, "You are smart."
It was also because of this that Wu Yu was too lazy to find out
more about the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. He had won the
approval of the other mystical dragons in the Primordial
Immortal Empire. What he needed to do now was keep a low
profile.
"Keep a low profile and be careful. Make good use of your
immortal’s legacy and your future will be bright. Surpassing us
won’t be difficult." After speaking, Wu Jun left.
Wu Hao was also drunk.
"You fought three battles in quick succession today, so you are
probably tired now. Have a good rest," said Ye Qianning.
"Alright, Aunt Ning."
"I shall go too." Luo Pin returned to their residence with Wu
Yu.
Both of them were walking on the long corridor.
Luo Pin took a deep breath and said, "I was really anxious today
and thought things would go bad...."
"I’m surprised that the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon
king is such a good guy. I’m at ease with you living here."
Those who were sheltering and protecting her were strong and
had influence.
"For our future...."
They seemed to have accomplished the goals they had set when
they were in the mortal domain. They could be together openly.
"Let’s continue working hard together."
Wu Yu pulled her into his embrace.
The future was bright and blissful.
"One day, you will become a dragon queen and I’ll become an
immortal king or even stronger. Then, let’s travel around this
world."
"Just like my foster parents."
Thinking about it was blissful.
Wu Yu rested for a few days. The sumptuous feast had helped
his recovery from the battles greatly. As for Luo Pin, she
continued her lessons at the Hidden Dragon Peak.
Now her friends were asking her about Wu Yu all the time.
Within the Hidden Dragon Peak, Wu Yu was now a well-
known figure.
When everything was settled, Wu Yu informed Wu Hao and
Ye Qianning that he would be heading out for some time.
Everyone had secrets, so Wu Hao naturally wouldn’t try to
encroach upon Wu Yu’s personal space. Moreover, Wu Yu
wasn’t taking Luo Pin away. After all, Wu Yu wasn’t a mystical
dragon. It would be common for him to come and leave often
in the future.
After bidding farewell to Luo Pin, Wu Yu headed towards the
exit of the Dragon Immortal Sky. This time, he didn’t have to
search. This was because there was a tunnel in the Primordial
Immortal Empire that led to that exit directly.
After entering the tunnel, there was a river. Wu Yu floated
downstream to the end, where he saw a waterfall. When he fell
off the curtain of the waterfall, he reached the Dragon Immortal
Sky.

He arrived at the back of the Imperial Realm Palace near

Golden Fate Dragon City. The front of the Imperial Realm
Palace was the entrance into the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm.
There were checks when one entered, but the checks for exiting
weren’t too stringent. However, Wu Yu was a human. When he
tried to get out, he was still stopped by a Xuan immortal realm
mystical dragon.
Wu Yu flashed his Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree.
"Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree!" That mystical dragon got
a scare and checked it carefully. Wu Yu’s name was engraved
on it, and one could even see Wu Yu’s image. After verifying
that it was really Wu Yu, he let Wu Yu go through immediately
and was courteous.
There was a substantial number of immortals who held the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree and could enter and exit
freely.
After he got out, Wu Yu left Golden Fate Dragon City swiftly
and headed towards a more deserted area with his Somersault
Cloud. The Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi were ready.
Wu Yu took several days to arrive at the fringe territory of the
Dragon Immortal Sky. This place was very far from Golden
Fate Dragon City and the immortal qi here was ordinary. It was
also arduous for one to visit other levels of the 8,000 levels of
heaven. Therefore, few mystical dragons lived in the vicinity,
and the place was surrounded by tall mountains and deep
valleys.
Wu Yu transformed into the Immortal Locust and spread his
body over a large area to verify that no other mystical dragons
or creatures were around.
"This should do." He chose a deep and deserted valley before
letting the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi out.
"Wa!"
"We are finally out! The outside world is really beautiful, and
the beautiful fairies have been waiting for me." The Full Moon
of Nanshan was beaming with excitement.
Finally, he had the hopes of becoming an immortal. For him,
this was a major hurdle.
The thought of countless beautiful fairies in the 8,000 Sky
Palaces had always fascinated him. If not for the fact that he
was too weak and couldn’t leave Wu Yu for now, he would
have run away. Staying in the Floating Dreams Pagoda was too
boring for him.
For Ye Xixi, it wasn’t convenient for her to move around in the
sky palaces. Moreover, she didn’t want to leave Wu Yu. Now
she could only remain in the Floating Dreams Pagoda to
continue her cultivation and get stronger.
"Who shall go first?" Wu Yu asked.
The Full Moon of Nanshan said, "Me! Of course! I’ll
demonstrate to this little brat!"
"Be careful, the Great Trial of the Immortal Dao that might
strike you dead. Think about how many people you have
trampled on! You will receive your retribution soon!" Ye Xixi
stared daggers at him.
"Meow!" Lazy also cried out.
The Full Moon of Nanshan smiled and said, "You should be
aware of my principles. I have never forced myself onto
anyone. Those beautiful girls were all after my stunning looks
and threw themselves at me. I was not causing sins. Rather, I
was bringing joy to these beautiful girls! In fact, I was
accumulating merits!"
The Full Moon of Nanshan began his challenge confidently.
Wu Yu created a number of doppelgangers to keep watch of the
surroundings. The Great Trial of the Immortal Dao would cause
a huge commotion, and it wouldn’t be great if others were
attracted to this place. This was because some people were fond
of causing trouble.
Wu Yu had not experienced the Great Trial of the Immortal
Dao, but he did know the power of it.
Soon, with Wu Yu watching attentively, it began.
The Full Moon of Nanshan was still a little anxious.
However, Wu Yu believed it wouldn’t be a big issue for him.
Ye Xixi was even more anxious.
The dao calamities for ghostly cultivators were often stronger.
It was beginning!
During the Great Trial of the Immortal Dao, one would
experience the wind, fire, and lightning coming in wave after
wave! It would be way more frightening than the previous three
dao crises.
Blade-like wind was blowing around him!
Flames that could devour one’s five viscera and six organs
would light up in one’s body.
Thunder was rumbling in the sky!
If he couldn’t become an immortal, he might be reduced to
ashes!
Going off of his own Great Trial of the Immortal Dao, Wu Yu
saw that the Full Moon of Nanshan’s Great Trial of the
Demonic Dao did not seem too powerful.
Marshal Tian Peng was probably an upright immortal with a
righteous legacy. The Nine Cycles of the Imperial Immortal
Body was mighty and full of righteous power.
Although he had yet to become an immortal, he already had a
stronger immortal aura compared to many others.
If he became an immortal, then his pure immortal aura would
be quite something to behold.
The Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal had a domineering, rebellious,
and unruly will.
As for Marshal Tian Peng, he was righteous, and even saintly.
As for the Curtain Lifting General, he was dark, menacing, and
cold.
All three had different qualities.
The Full Moon of Nanshan, as an "immortal beast," would be
able to roam the sky palaces with even more ease.
"This guy, he looks like he’s going to reach immortalhood very
easily," Ye Xixi blurted out, seeing how casually the Full Moon
of Nanshan was facing the trial.
"I’ve given him many immortal medicines and immortal
treasures to protect himself with. Moreover, he has his own
legacy. It would be strange if he could not pass the trial. Why?
Nervous?" Wu Yu asked.
Ye Xixi shook her head. "Nope. I was just thinking that I’m a
ghostly cultivator, and I wondered if there would be anything
wrong with attempting the Great Trial of the Ghostly Dao here
in the 8,000 Sky Palaces."
Wu Yu had, of course, considered this before.
"It seems like there have been ghostly cultivators who passed
the trial here without any problems. If we return to the mortal
domain, you might ascend to the 10,000 Levels of Hell after
you pass the trial, since you are not a native immortal in the
Great Ancient Ink Realm. Therefore, you can only try in the
sky palaces."
"Mm, I know. I don’t want to leave Big Brother Yu and go to
the 10,000 Levels of Hell alone. Too many scary ghostly
immortals." Ye Xixi was more inclined towards the 8,000 Sky
Palaces herself. It looked beautiful.
"Don’t worry, I’ll give you protection. There will be no
problem. Once you two become immortals, I will be thoroughly
relieved. At that time, you can continue to cultivate in the
Floating Dreams Pagoda, and I’ve prepared all sorts of
cultivation resources for you. Besides, I know of some treasures
that can mask your ghostly immortal aura. I will search for
them."
"That’s wonderful. In the future, I will be able to move about
freely, and won’t have to keep staying in the Floating Dreams
Pagoda and stare at that bastard!" Ye Xixi was overjoyed.
After about an hour, one could see that the Full Moon of
Nanshan had all but dealt with the trials.
He was currently absorbing the energy from the Great Trial of
the Demonic Dao to build his immortal body and spirit. This
was a life-changing metamorphosis, and Wu Yu guarded him
without interfering.
"I’m so envious of Big Brother Nanshan. He succeeded so
easily," Ye Xixi said.
"Don’t worry, you’ll definitely do even better than him." Wu
Yu patted her head soothingly.
After being together for so long, Wu Yu already saw her as his
kin sister.
Actually, their fighting ability was at immortal level already.
Besides, after such a long time, Ye Xixi had already uncovered
all of the Heaven Dao Mystiques of the Curtain Lifting General.
Her Hell Incarnation Avatar had also made huge
improvements.
After another hour, the smoke around the Full Moon of
Nanshan’s body faded, then a pure and respectable immortal
appeared before the two of them. The Full Moon of Nanshan
was even more beautiful now, both in terms of figure and
features. Even immortal women would be moved by him.
Besides, he looked very noble. With a sharp brow and shining
eyes, he was a tall and dashing prince. It was the exact opposite
of his character....
"If this form could be swapped with Big Brother Jiu Ying’s,
that would be awesome!" Ye Xixi sighed.
Jiu Ying was a true gentleman!
"Little girl, you’re saying bad things about me again. I felt like
someone was cursing me the whole time I was facing the trial.
Now that Big Brother here has ascended, see if I won’t spank
you?"
He could feel his immortal spirit and body, and was over the
moon with joy.
"Let me back into Floating Dreams Pagoda! There are too many
good things, and I have to slowly digest them!" the Full Moon
of Nanshan exclaimed.
"Sure."
"Little girl, you had better hurry up. The Great Trial of the
Immortal Dao is too easy, it won’t trip you up," the Full Moon
of Nanshan said, then he hurried back into the Floating Dreams
Pagoda.
Wu Yu patted her shoulder. She was still nervous.
"Go on. Xixi, this is a great trial in your life. Don’t forget our
legacies. This will be nothing to you," Wu Yu said seriously.
"Yes. As a bearer of a legacy, I should not be afraid."
Ye Xixi steeled herself and then began to undergo the trial right
where the Full Moon of Nanshan had.
The Great Trial of the Ghostly Dao!
It was indeed different!
Whether in terms of lightning, fire, or wind, it was completely
different.
But Ye Xixi did not react badly. On the whole, her trial seemed
to be going as well as the Full Moon of Nanshan’s had.
Therefore, seeing the black clouds, lightning, wind, and flames
begin, Wu Yu was already relaxed. Ye Xixi was currently
handling herself at least as well as the Full Moon of Nanshan
had, so it should be fine.
"Meow." Lazy was quite nervous, jumping into Wu Yu’s arms.
"Don’t worry. She’ll be safe," Wu Yu said gently, stroking it.
When Ye Xixi got serious, it was a reassuring sight. She was
calm when dealing with the trial, even using it to train her own
ghostly immortal body and ghostly spirit.
Time ticked by, and all was proceeding as it should. The power
of heaven’s wrath was gradually being controlled by Ye Xixi.
However, because it was the Great Trial of the Ghostly Dao,
there was something different from the Great Trial of the
Immortal Dao. If it was the Great Trial of the Immortal Dao, no
one would take much notice. But this was the Great Trial of the
Ghostly Dao, so the whole air was filled with ghostly immortal
qi. Even from far away, one could see a ghostly immortal being
born, and the aura was in the shape of a giant skull.
"If we’re unlucky, others might happen upon it."
Wu Yu was playing it on the safe side. Therefore, his 100,000
clones spread out all over a huge area.
Just to be safe.
However, in the midst of it, Wu Yu still saw that mystical
dragons had noticed the commotion.
If they were strong, things would get hairy. He might need to
think of a way to buy time for Ye Xixi to succeed.
However, these two mystical dragons were just barely within
the range that Wu Yu could handle. Wu Yu had fought such
opponents before.

They should be 3-Xuan immortals, roughly equal to Xing Ling.

Ye Xixi’s matter was extremely important. If she were
interfered with, the results would be too dire to imagine. There
had been countless people throughout the course of history who
had crumbled to dust because their trials were interrupted by
others.
Therefore, in order to prevent that, Wu Yu immediately used
the Somersault Cloud to leap in front of the two mystical
dragons who were headed for Ye Xixi.
It was quite unsettling for him to appear like that.
The two mystical dragons almost jumped out of their skins.
These were two black mystical dragons. One was stocky, and
moved powerfully. She was clearly a female dragon, and had a
single sharp horn that pointed forward. She looked like a
speedy creature who could come and go like the wind. The
other mystical dragon was also black, but much more majestic.
His head was exceptionally big, and Wu Yu actually
recognized these two types of mystical dragons from Ao Ding’s
memories.
They both came from the Shackled God Tribe, a bigger tribe
compared to the Sky Heart Tribe.
The male dragon with the large head was a Spirit Devourer
Black Dragon, which had the formidable mystique of being
able to devourer immortal spirits. Spirit Devourer Black
Dragons were considered high-tier mystical dragons, and they
had the potential to reach the Immortal Lord Realm.
The other was a Deadly Nightshadow Dragon, a famous killer
within the mystical dragon tribe. They specialized in
assassinations from the shadows, striking a lethal hit in one
blow. They were also high-tier mystical dragons, and their
futures were bright. Neither of these two mystical dragons were
old - they were probably less than two yuan old.
They were currently rushing over to Ye Xixi’s location. Wu Yu
appeared before them and hurriedly said, "Please halt for a
moment."
For safety’s sake, he randomly took the guise of a Great
Ancient Ink Realm immortal.
The Spirit Devourer Black Dragon and the Deadly
Nightshadow Dragon stared coldly at Wu Yu, who had stopped
them. The male dragon said, "That ghostly cultivator is one of
yours! That means you brought a ghostly cultivator to the 8,000
Sky Palaces! And to the Dragon Immortal Sky! Despicable
immortal, you have committed blasphemy! Are you trying to
use ghostly cultivators to sully our Dragon Immortal Sky?"
Attitudes towards ghostly cultivators differed between
immortals, but, evidently, these two mystical dragons were
extremely negative about it.
"Please do not be hasty, and hear me out." Wu Yu even put on
a smile. After all, Ye Xixi could not be disturbed at any cost.
The Deadly Nightshadow Dragon harrumphed. "The truth and
the evidence are all right before our eyes. You dare to stop us
from killing the ghostly immortal? That means you’re in
cahoots with her! If this ghostly immortal successfully passes
the trial, they will commit evil in the Dragon Immortal Sky
from now on! Ghostly immortals should go to the 10,000
Levels of Hell, but you let her come here. You are implicated
too, and your sin is great!"
The Spirit Devourer Black Dragon said, "Ye Ling, you go kill
that ghostly immortal. I’ll deal with this one."
"Alright!"
Both of them immediately sprung into action without further
comment. The Deadly Nightshadow Dragon moved very
swiftly, immediately skirting Wu Yu and streaking towards Ye
Xixi. Given her speed, she would probably only need 30
breaths of time to reach Ye Xixi’s location.
As for the Spirit Devourer Black Dragon, he immediately
moved to suppress Wu Yu. However, he was treating Wu Yu
like a heavenly immortal-level opponent.
For him, it was fairly straightforward.
They had made their decision.
Wu Yu knew that the slightest hesitation from him would spell
Ye Xixi’s death.
Wu Yu could not bear death. Any softening of his actions might
kill her!
He only had 30 breaths of time!
The Spirit Devourer Black Dragon laughed coldly, opening his
huge dragon maw and pouncing on Wu Yu!
"I hate you immortals the most. There are so many other levels
of heaven, but you had to come here to the Dragon Immortal
Sky. If that’s not bad enough, you’re even causing trouble! No
one will regret your death!"
He did not take Wu Yu seriously.
No matter how strong Wu Yu was, if one of them shook him
off to ambush Ye Xixi, it would be troublesome for him.
He only had one option left.
Kill!
"It seems like that’s a girl. So, you are interested in a ghostly
immortal? What a strange taste you have! Aren’t you afraid she
will wring your head off when you guys are doing the thing
together?" The Spirit Devourer Black Dragon mocked Wu Yu
as he darted towards him.
Arrogance filled the eyes of this mystical dragon. It was
common to see mystical dragon immortal beasts acting
arrogantly before immortals. However, the arrogance that this
dragon had was especially high.
Wu Yu’s response to him was indifference.
"Immortal Cloud Field!"
He struck instantly, and the Immortal Cloud Field expanded out
swiftly to cover the Spirit Devourer Black Dragon completely.
"What the hell is this!?" The Spirit Devourer Black Dragon was
surprised to find that it was hard to move even an inch within
the clouds. The pressure from the immortal clouds was difficult
to bear, but Wu Yu could still move like a fish in water.
"How dare you!"
He raged and wanted to tear the Immortal Cloud Field with
force!
However, what he didn’t know was that Wu Yu had
transformed into an Immortal Ape. At the same time, he used
the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth so that he
wouldn’t be any smaller than the Spirit Devourer Black
Dragon. Furthermore, he had the ancient immortal treasure
Luminary Celestial Dragon Mantra Sword with him!
This was what he had won from Ye Xuanyi in battle.
Swift and decisive!
With the Immortal Cloud Field trapping his opponent, Wu Yu
charged forward instantly. The Spirit Devourer Black Dragon
was thinking of a way to rip through the Immortal Cloud Field
when Wu Yu’s Spirit Chaser Art hit him directly!
Wu Yu was out of time!
Weng!
The effects of the Spirit Chaser Art were huge, and when
striking one’s immortal spirit, it could knock one into a stunned
state.
"100,000 Dragons Immortal Butchering Design!"
This was an ancient immortal design with over 40,000,000
spirit designs. Spirit designs with over 10,000,000 spirit
designs could be considered ancient immortal designs.
The powers of ancient immortal design exceeded ordinary
immortal design extensively. It was especially so when Wu Yu
used it with his current strength.
While the Spirit Devourer Black Dragon was still stunned from
the Spirit Chaser Art, Wu Yu charged forward and swung out
his Luminary Celestial Dragon Mantra Sword without saying a
word.
100,000 immortal dragons morphed into sword qi, broke the
defense of the Spirit Devourer Black Dragon, and penetrated
his body. Instantly, numerous wounds were opened on the
Spirit Devourer Black Dragon’s body. He cried tragically and
stared at Wu Yu with extreme fear.
"Call her back to save you, or I will send you to the afterlife
right here!" Wu Yu appeared before the Spirit Devourer Black
Dragon with his savage golden immortal ape form.
"You dare to kill me in my territory? How hilarious! You won’t
live past today because of your actions! Do you know who I
am? Haha!"
The Spirit Devourer Black Dragon was fearless. He was
confident that no one would kill him in the Dragon Immortal
Sky, let alone an immortal. At the same time, he was certain
that Wu Yu must have used some treasure to mask his strength
and let others see him as an heavenly immortal.
He was haughty.
However, Wu Yu responded with 100,000 immortal dragons
made of sword qi!
Sha, sha, sha!
In a split second, the Spirit Devourer Black Dragon was
engulfed in Wu Yu’s sword qi amidst his tragic cries.
Perhaps the Spirit Devourer Black Dragon couldn’t understand
what had happened even just before his death. He had never
expected to encounter someone who was fearless and who
would not act according to how most people would.
He was just sticking his nose around, he had not expected to
lose his life. This was because he was used to toying with
others’ lives, and he didn’t know how important Ye Xixi was
to Wu Yu.
The more important someone was to him, the more Wu Yu
wouldn’t show any mercy!
......
She was close!
The Deadly Nightshadow Dragon was drawing closer and
closer to Ye Xixi. She could now see the black calamity clouds
integrating into Ye Xixi’s body.
"It’s a girl! Filthy ghostly immortal! How dare you show up in
my Dragon Immortal Sky! You must have lived too long! How
annoying!
"Let me send a filthy one like you to hell! That’s the place most
suitable for you!
"Our holy and clean Dragon Immortal Sky is getting tainted by
your repugnant aura!"
She didn’t have to use any major moves, as it would be simple
to let Ye Xixi suffer from the backlash of the Great Trial of the
Ghostly Dao.
Just as she was about to strike...
At this very moment!
A giant figure popped up in front of her out of the blue.
It was golden in color. Taking a closer look, she could see a
golden ape. It was savage, ferocious, domineering, and filled
with terrifying ancient vibes.
"Demon immortal? Immortal beast?" The Deadly Nightshadow
Dragon was a little stumped. The feeling she got from the giant
beast was stifling, and she was forced to stop her attack.
However, the next instant, she saw that the golden ape was
carrying a giant dragon head in its hand.
Blood was still dripping from the dragon head that was without
a body. The eyes were still open and wounds were scattered
across the head. One could tell that it had died with indignance.
"Argh! Argh!" the Deadly Nightshadow Dragon cried
tragically.
She naturally recognized that person! That was the man that
had been wooing her, and she was about to agree to becoming
his dao companion.
"You killed him! You killed him! Do you know who he is?" the
Deadly Nightshadow Dragon screamed frenziedly.
"Him? He’s a dead man. Or should I say a dead dragon," Wu
Yu answered indifferently.
At this point, the Deadly Nightshadow Dragon was too close to
Ye Xixi.
Furthermore, her presence might draw stronger enemies for Wu
Yu at any point. Perhaps more terrifying enemies would arrive
before Ye Xixi succeeded.
Therefore, he could no longer hesitate after taking the first step.
He transformed into a cloud of black mist and devoured the
remaining dragon head. After digesting, he transformed back
into his golden immortal ape form.
"You better back off now!" While digesting and converting, the
immortal energy and buddha energy he once lacked were
quickly filled. His Earth Aspect Realm and Wind Aspect Realm
reached full mastery and the Bodhi Seeds in his immortal spirit
were lighting up!
"You killed him! I will kill you to be buried with him! First, I’ll
kill your woman!" The Deadly Nightshadow Dragon had lost
her mind. She was locked on to Ye Xixi as it was easy for her
to strike Ye Xixi.
She was confident she could escape after killing Ye Xixi.
However, due to her anger, she had forgotten how long Wu Yu
had taken to kill the Spirit Devourer Black Dragon.
Furthermore, Wu Yu was now stronger. As each moment
passed, his strength escalated!
The Deadly Nightshadow Dragon made her move.
Wu Yu was quicker, and he wouldn’t let her reach Ye Xixi!
Once again, Immortal Cloud Field!
This was useful as the clouds surged outwards and had the
Deadly Nightshadow Dragon trapped. Within it, it would be as
though she was moving in a swamp, or rather a swamp full of
glue. Her advantage in speed diminished instantly. At the same
time, Wu Yu was able to move freely within with Fulgurating
Shadows.
"Uh...." The Deadly Nightshadow Dragon was stumped. She
could still conceal her body, but within the Immortal Cloud
Field, it was pointless. Wu Yu would still know where she was.

"Optics of Immortal Expanse!"

Boom!
The next instant, the Deadly Nightshadow Dragon was set
ablaze from the ferocious eyes!
Pa, pa, pa!
Her dragon scales started cracking and were badly mangled!
This was just the beginning!
Killing sword qi from the ancient immortal treasure rushed
forward once again and had her surrounded and devoured! This
was stronger than before and therefore was harder for the
Deadly Nightshadow Dragon to resist!
"Do you know the hefty price you have to pay for killing us!?"
the Deadly Nightshadow Dragon screamed. She was flustered.
She finally understood that she couldn’t kill Ye Xixi with Wu
Yu protecting her.
The response she got was rampant sword qi from Wu Yu!
"Stop! I admit my defeat! I won’t dare to do anything! I won’t
poke my nose in areas where I shouldn’t! We have nothing to
do with this ghostly cultivator! I know my mistake now! Don’t
kill me! Please don’t kill me! Spare my life and I’ll leave
immediately! I will not cause you any trouble!"
To sum it up, being too nosy had caused their downfall.
However, Wu Yu could tell that they were used to being
arrogant and despotic. They could only blame their bad luck for
encountering Wu Yu today. However, this was just their
retribution. If they had not done what they did, they wouldn’t
have had to suffer the consequences now.
"It’s too late."
There’s no way Wu Yu could trust her. Once she left, there was
at least a 99% chance that she would return with stronger
mystical dragons.
He wouldn’t risk Ye Xixi’s life to show kindness or mercy.
Sha, sha, sha!
Countless sword qi dragons bombarded her immortal spirit
until she was fully decimated. Wu Yu hadn’t been devouring
for a long time. Now that he had started killing, he naturally
wouldn’t waste it. Two mystical dragons with dense flesh and
blood essence entered the stomach of the Heaven Devouring
Titanic Beast.
Wu Yu reverted to his human form and serenity returned to the
place. Wu Yu could see that his battles had still affected Ye
Xixi greatly. Her condition wasn’t too stable and the powers of
the calamity were still rampaging in her body. Looking at her
grimacing, Wu Yu couldn’t help but feel his heart aching.
"I should have been more decisive in killing those two." He
didn’t regret his actions.
Fortunately, the battles had ended and Wu Yu had successfully
killed his opponents. This also allowed Ye Xixi to suppress the
calamity again to continue forging her ghostly immortal body
and ghostly spirit.
Although Wu Yu wasn’t speaking to her, she could understand
everything from the battles.
Wu Yu hadn’t allowed them to send out any Immortal Message
Talismans. Therefore, it was peaceful for the remaining time.
Over this period, Wu Yu digested everything they had and
converted it into his own.
Wu Yu understood that the Spirit Devourer Black Dragon had
threanted him because of his parents, who were powerful and
elite dragon lords. They were also members of the Shackled
God Tribe.
As for their growth, Wu Yu wasn’t interested. He only took in
information on the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm and the
8,000 Sky Palaces. Naturally, he also digested their daos.
Their perceptive ability and dao of three immortal dao marks
were greatly beneficial to Wu Yu.
Together, that would be six immortal dao marks. It wasn’t easy
to digest all of them, as the dao within them was too rich. Wu
Yu started with devouring their physical bodies and immortal
spirits before focusing on the immortal dao marks. Overall, he
had reaped handsome rewards.
"Once I become a 9-Yuan heavenly immortal, I will be able to
use their daos to form my immortal dao mark immediately.
However, their immortal dao marks can’t enter my eyes. When
the time comes, I should still try to create my own dao."
Ao Ding only had one immortal dao mark.
Wu Yu believed that with the perceptive abilities of these two
mystical dragons, he would make further improvements in his
two Longevity Immortal Arts!
He was researching and digesting while the 100,000
doppelgangers were scattered in the surroundings to stand
guard. Ye Xixi was also approaching the end without any major
danger.
Finally, she succeeded.
When Wu Yu saw the ghostly immortal she had become, he
was stumped.
Wu Yu could not find words to describe Ye Xixi’s
transformation.
Her aura seemed to have changed, but it was not the same aura
that Wu Yu had seen on other ghostly immortals.
Her aura was dark and cold, but very pure. There was nothing
sinister or evil about her aura, unlike the auras of other ghostly
immortals. Ye Xixi’s aura was simply pure darkness.
Of course, her aura made her special and unique.
It made her highly attractive.
Ye Xixi was petite and her physique was highly compatible
with such a pure aura. It accentuated her attractiveness, and
even when she stood with Wu Yu and Nanshan, she could
become the focus of attention.
"Big Brother Yu, do I look good?" Ye Xixi asked when she saw
Wu Yu staring at her.
"Not bad, you look great. I believe that you will have many
suitors in the future." Wu Yu laughed.
He gestured for Ye Xixi to hurry over. They had to leave
immediately for safety reasons.
"What do you mean by just ’not bad?!’ I feel that I have become
quite beautiful! This is irritating, you only have eyes for Big
Sister Luo Pin. I think I should let Big Brother Nanshan take a
look at me instead." Ye Xixi was anxious.
"Ha ha, you are not his type. He will probably complain that
you are not the voluptuous type that he likes." Wu Yu chuckled.
As Wu Yu had predicted, when Ye Xixi entered the Floating
Dreams Pagoda, the Full Moon of Nanshan only gave her a lazy
look and teased, "Yo, you’ve become prettier, but still not my
type."
"Asshole!" Ye Xixi was exasperated by these two unromantic
men. Of course, in her heart, she still felt happy. She had taken
these two to be her older brothers. They were like family.
She still had a long road ahead of her, and this was considered
a good beginning.
"I shall transform my pain and anger into hard work, and one
day, I shall have a man better than the two of you fall in love
with me!" Ye Xixi declared.
"Meow!" Lazy yowled loudly at the Full Moon of Nanshan in
a boastful manner.
They had 10 times the time inside the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
This was very beneficial for their training. As expected, they
had earned the Longevity Immortal Art from Marshal Tian
Peng and the Longevity Ghostly Dao from the Curtain Lifting
General respectively.
The two of them were now engrossed in studying their
immortal art and ghostly dao and were no longer paying any
attention to Wu Yu.
"One has become an immortal and the other a ghostly immortal.
This is great." This meant that both of them had at least 129,600
years of lifespan. He no longer needed to worry about them
dying in 600 years.
"Soon, when the Full Moon of Nanshan is stronger, he can even
go out and explore on his own. As for Xixi, I still need to find
a way for her to hide her aura. It is lucky that she is different
from the usual ghostly immortal, which should make it easier
to hide her aura."
Of these three people, Wu Yu was considered human, but also
a Spirit of the Universe. He was a combination of an immortal
and a Spirit of the Universe.
The Full Moon of Nanshan was originally a demon, and
through his training of the immortal technique, he had turned
into an immortal beast. Actually, there was not much of a
difference between immortal beasts and demon immortals.
Whereas Ye Xixi, who had trained in the ghostly dao since
young but never did evil, had now become a ghostly immortal.
All of them had taken different paths.
After Nanshan and Xixi returned to the Floating Dreams
Pagoda, Wu Yu instantly left the place and headed towards
Golden Fate Dragon City. He had not really spent much time
with Luo Pin and could not bear to leave yet. Hence, he was
going to return to the Primordial Immortal Empire.
Besides, he had received the daos of two mystical dragons, so
he could study the Lightning Aspect Realm and the eighth tier
of the Bodhi Immortal Dao Art.
As he progressed to the higher tiers, he would require longer
periods of study. An immortal’s training was endless.
"If my real body and my avatar did not combine, then I may
have been like them and would require a long time just to
improve by a smidgen.
"So it turns out that the Ancient Emperor actually helped me
gain this crazy ability to train at an unbelievable speed."
This was all fate.
Wu Yu had won in this game of fate.
His current body was truly heaven-defying. It was even better
than the Heaven Devouring Avatar before.
Especially since he had the Ruyi Jingu Bang to suppress the
Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast.
After devouring the two mystical dragons, his immortal spirit
had started to transform into the Heaven Devouring Titanic
Beast once again. About a third of his immortal spirit was
transformed before the Ruyi Jingu Bang had suppressed the
transformation. It would probably take quite some time before
it could reverse the transformation and allow him to regain his
state of normalcy.
The powers of the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast and the
Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal were actually complementary.
Under the astonished gazes of various mystical dragons, Wu
Yu used the Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree to return to the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm before going back to the
Primordial Immortal Empire. He waited for Luo Pin’s classes
to end at the Hidden Dragon Peak so that they could return to
Qin Yin Peak together.
"That’s him, Wu Yu, Luo Pin’s husband!"
"He’s here to pick Luo Pin up!"
"That’s so blissful."
"Stop saying that he is her husband. The Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king said that we should not say that. Luo Pin
is still young."
"But he is practically her husband."
The other young dragons started gossiping when they saw Wu
Yu.
"How are things going?" Luo Pin smiled when she saw him.
She rarely smiled in front of other people.
"Very well." Wu Yu piloted the Somersault Cloud and the two
of them returned to Qinyin Palace cuddled together. Wu Hao
and Ye Qianning were often training in seclusion. Hence, Wu
Yu and Luo Pin rarely saw them.
"You have only been gone for a short period of time. Why are
you so anxious?" They had only just touched down at Qinyin
Palace when Wu Yu started embracing her.
"I miss you even if I leave for only one second." Wu Yu grinned
cheekily.
She was too perfect. Wu Yu was drunk on her scent.
She had such soft skin, such perfect features, such smooth,
flowy hair, and such gentle yet wise eyes. Everything about her
could drive Wu Yu crazy.
Luo Pin blushed and whispered, "Be good, stop your wandering
hands. If my adoptive parents sense that, it will be
embarrassing."
After all, the couple was still in the palace.
"Ai yo, my dear lady, when will you elope with a ruffian like
me," Wu Yu teased.
"What are you saying? I’m still a baby dragon. I cannot elope
with you. You will have to wait for a long time."
Luo Pin poked fun at Wu Yu’s pain.
Wu Yu felt that these mystical dragons were crazy. It was
obvious that Luo Pin was much more mature than the other
little dragons. Her body had also matured faster in the mortal
domain. How could they treat her like a baby?
After fooling around for a while, they simply enjoyed each
other’s company. Amidst these peaceful and happy moments,
Wu Yu’s anxious heart managed to calm down, and the
transformation of his immortal spirit back into human form
actually sped up. Luo Pin was indeed a woman who could bring
him peace.
She was different from Nangong Wei, who would only test his
patience.
Luo Pin had trained under the instruction of a dragon king and
would probably become a 2-Yuan heavenly immortal within a
few days.

Her speed of training was very fast too!

When she reached the level of a 5-Yuan heavenly immortal,
Wu Yu could probably bring her out to travel and see the bigger
world outside.
When Wu Yu was tired, he laid his head on her smooth thighs
and gazed up at her face and the immortal fog in the sky. Luo
Pin’s head was also raised when she suddenly said sadly, "Wu
Yu, I was suddenly hit with some unhappy thoughts these few
days. In the mortal domain, we used to say that dao companions
have to be equal in power. That was the only way we could
encourage each other to improve. Perhaps in the mortal domain,
you worked very hard to catch up to my level. When you have
succeeded, we seemed to finally match. But ever since we
reached the sky palaces, things seem to be different."
Wu Yu shook his head and comforted her. "Don’t overthink."
Luo Pin murmured sadly, "I’m not overthinking. You are
improving at a very fast pace now. It is obvious that I can never
catch up to you. In the future, the gap between us will only
widen. I may always remain a little dragon, while you can reach
higher sky palaces and get to know stronger and even more
talented immortals. I think that I may no longer be good enough
for you."
"That’s nonsense!" Wu Yu suddenly sat up and grabbed her
shoulders. He stared into her eyes and said, "I don’t like hearing
you say those words. You and you alone shall be mine. No one
can stop us from being together. Listen carefully. Firstly, my
situation is unique, especially right now. If you want to talk
about cultivation rate, then there is no one in the entire
Heavenly Domain that could catch up to me. Doesn’t that mean
that no one is a good match for me? Secondly, at this point, I
no longer feel that dao companions need to be equally matched
in power or status. Because when two people want to be
together, especially two immortals, the most important thing is
not strength, but heart."
He pointed at their hearts and said, "I have vowed in the mortal
domain that no matter what, I will be with you forever. And
you should not be anxious. No one can tell what will happen in
the future. If I’m really so talented, I will naturally let you, my
woman, live an eternal life together with me!"
Wu Yu was no longer the same Wu Yu who was restricted by
the societal expectations of the mortal domain. Similarly, the
Wu Yu now refused to be restricted by the rules of the sky
palaces.
Luo Pin smiled after listening to Wu Yu and said, "You don’t
have to be anxious either. I’m just sharing with you that I have
such worries in my heart. Of course, now I finally see that a
little guy like you is truly a rare top-rate husband material. Your
future is unlimited. I’m not so foolish to push you to other
women."
"Did you just say that I’m little?" Wu Yu grinned devilishly.
"Why are you always thinking in that direction?" Luo Pin
blushed again. She explained, "I’m already a few hundred years
old, while you are not even 100 years old. In the mortal domain,
didn’t you say that I was a cougar? So, in my eyes, you are still
a little rascal."
Actually, it was enough for Luo Pin to stop worrying when Wu
Yu had made his attitude clear.
Of course, within the mystical dragon tribe, there would be
many who would still think that it was Wu Yu who was not
good enough for Luo Pin.
But Wu Yu did not care. The Wu Yu of today did not like being
troubled by other people’s criticisms. If someone were to
obstruct their relationship, he would only break through those
obstructions.
As he joked and chatted with Luo Pin, several hours passed.
She started training, and Wu Yu also started to study about the
Lightning Aspect Realm. Many difficult questions seemed
easily solvable now.
They sat together and watched as the clouds rolled by on Qin
Yin Peak.
All was serene.
Two hearts beating in synchrony.
Actually, Wu Yu had taken Luo Pin’s words to heart. He
disliked that he had caused Luo Pin to have such thoughts.
He did not want her to suffer even a moment of unhappiness.
Hence, he kept thinking of what to do in the future.
Not even the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi could not
catch up to Wu Yu’s cultivation rate. What else could Wu Yu
do? The Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast was really an
incredible being.
At the moment, he could only put this matter aside.
He was now extremely focused on studying the Lightning
Aspect Realm.
As he was training in silence, an ancient voice suddenly came
out of nowhere. The voice blasted into Wu Yu’s ears.
"Recipient of the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal’s legacy, I shall
await for you at the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory!"
Wu Yu felt as though thunder had struck him. His eyes opened
in shock and he looked at his surroundings.
There was only Luo Pin by his side.
There were not many in this world who knew that Wu Yu was
the recipient of the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal’s legacy.
However, Wu Yu was sure that he had not imagined that voice.
Who was that?
This naturally became Wu Yu’s greatest question in mind.
Besides, that person had said that he was waiting for Wu Yu at
the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
Wu Yu had only heard about the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory
not long ago.
He had no intention of barging into the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory where he did not belong. The Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king, Wu Jun, had said that Wu Yu should
keep a low profile in the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm.
"Who is it?"
Wu Yu surveyed his surroundings. There was only endless
immortal fog. No one answered him.
"This, how could it be...." Ming Long was speechless as she
had heard that voice as well.
"Who do you think that is? The Nine Great Dragon Emperors?
They may appear at the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. Or was
it some elite immortal who is being imprisoned there?"
"But how would they know that you are the recipient of the
Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal’s legacy? It seems like no one else
knows about the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal in the sky
palaces."
"So, who could it be...."
Wu Yu was deep in thought.
Luo Pin had noticed his sudden change in behavior.
Wu Yu told her about this strange occurrence.
Luo Pin was also clueless and frowned.
"Then.... are you really going to the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory to look for him...."
"Let me think about it first."
Wu Yu had to calm down.
First, he had to analyze who this person was and if he would
bring about a transformation for Wu Yu or be a danger to him.
"I’m afraid that he might be yet another Ancient Emperor. This
contact looks like a mysterious encounter, but in reality, it is
actually dangerous," Luo Pin said.
"Well, he is different from the Ancient Emperor. This person
already knows that I have received the immortal’s legacy. Also,
he sounded righteous and is sure that I will definitely be at the
purgatory. Actually, I think that he may be the Great Sage,
Heaven’s Equal’s companion, or perhaps someone who can
answer my question. Maybe he can tell me what I need to do in
return for inheriting the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal’s legacy?"
This was what Wu Yu had always wanted to know. In fact, this
was one of the most important goals that he had for coming to
the 8,000 Sky Palaces.
And now it seemed like the opportunity to fulfil this goal had
presented itself before him.
It was not only the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal, but also
Marshal Tian Peng and the Curtain Lifting General whom Wu
Yu was very familiar with.
Why had three phenomenal immortals disappeared without a
trace but left behind their legacies?
Luo Pin looked worried as she said, "Even so, I still think that
it is too dangerous for you to go."
Wu Yu knew that she was worried for his safety. However,
some things were worth the risk. Otherwise he would never
learn the truth.
Who was this person?
He said, "Let’s not be hasty in making our decision. Can you
give me more details about the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory?
I’m still not too clear about that. Especially about the trial that
will take place in seven years."
Luo Pin nodded.
Both of them had thought that their future days would be
peaceful. They had never expected such a sudden turn of
events.
She explained, "The Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory is the place
where the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm imprisons their
enemies and criminals. Basically everyone in there faces a
death sentence. That is the reason why they are trapped in the
purgatory. There are immortals who have slayed mystical
dragons, mystical dragons who have committed heinous
crimes, and also ghostly cultivators who have desecrated the
mystical dragons in the Heaven and Earth Ancient battlefield.
There are many other criminals and even Spirits of the Universe
in there. You can say that most of them are vicious beings
waiting for their death sentences. Because in the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory, their cultivation levels only regress.
They will only weaken as time passes. Eventually, they will die
in the huge Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory Immortal Design.
"The trial held every 1,000 years actually brings their death
sentences forward. Of course, it is also an opportunity for them
to escape death. There will be a great battle in the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory."
Actually, Wu Yu had participated in similar games in the Dong
Sheng Divine Continent with the demons and in the Shushan
Immortal Sect. It was just that the trial of the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory was more complicated.
The Full Moon of Nanshan had survived and gained his
freedom from such a game.
However, the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory was different.
"There are a few levels in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. Of
which, the first level is the place where our trial will be held. It
imprisons immortals, ghostly immortals, and mystical dragons
below the Immortal Lord Realm. It also means that the
strongest in the first level can have the battle power of a 9-Xuan
immortal. That is relatively terrifying. They are trapped
individually in Immortal Lord Realm-level Dragon Emperor
Prison Cells. When the challengers enter the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory, they have to seek out these hidden Dragon Emperor
Prison Cells and then defeat the prisoners.
"Each challenger will have two spirit designs drawn on them
before they enter. One of them is the Dragon Emperor Immortal
Design and the other is called the Escape Immortal Design.
"The Escape Immortal Design will activate when the
challengers are at the brink of death. It is for them to escape
from the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. It helps them to escape
death. But that is also equivalent to giving up on the trial.
"Whereas the Dragon Emperor Immortal Design forms the
challenger’s base. There is a corresponding Purgatory Immortal
Design on each prisoner.
"The challenger will need to kill the prisoner. After killing the
prisoner, the prisoner’s Purgatory Immortal Design will
integrate into the challenger’s Dragon Emperor Immortal
Design, making it stronger.
"And the Dragon Emperor Immortal Design is usually drawn
on the mystical dragons’ horns. If a prisoner cuts off a mystical
dragon’s horn, he can obtain the Dragon Emperor Immortal
Design. Similarly, this design will be integrated into the
prisoner’s Purgatory Immortal Design, strengthening it.
"Of course, if the prisoner accidentally kills a mystical dragon,
he will be killed immediately, and in a very cruel way. After
all, we mystical dragons value our descendants a lot. We will
not allow any one of them to die just like that. After all, it is too
difficult for us to reproduce.
"Finally, all the challengers will be ranked according to the
strength of their Dragon Emperor Immortal Design when the
trial ends. The top ten will then emerge victorious.
"If the prisoners manage to stay alive until the end, their
Purgatory Immortal Design will be of a certain strength as well.
"Every challenger will start off with Dragon Emperor Immortal
Designs of the same strength. This is standardized. Everyone
starts from scratch.
"However, the strength of each prisoner’s Purgatory Immortal
Design is different. The stronger the prisoner, the stronger their
Purgatory Immortal Design will be at the start. It is possible
that after slaying a 9-Yuan Immortal, the challenger will earn a
Purgatory Immortal Design that is 10 times stronger than that
the one he would get from killing a 1-Yuan immortal.

"Therefore, the final ranking of the strength of the challengers’

Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs is not based on the number
of prisoners that they kill, but the total strength of the Purgatory
Immortal Designs obtained. Therefore, the goal is to find more
powerful prisoners and kill them. Even if one has killed
numerous immortals with weak Purgatory Immortal Designs,
they cannot compare to those who killed prisoners with
powerful Purgatory Immortal Designs.
"And to the prisoners, if their Purgatory Immortal Design can
strengthen and reach a certain level, they will be released by
the mystical dragon tribe. Of course, each prisoner will have to
meet different requirements. The stronger the prisoner, the
stronger their Purgatory Immortal Design will have to be before
they can be released. Moreover, they themselves don’t know
what are the requirements that they have to fulfil, so in order to
escape, they will try their best to fight against the challengers.
Of course, they will need to control themselves and not kill any
mystical dragons. Otherwise they will lose all hope of escaping.
"There is another rule, which is more interesting. The
challengers can actually battle with each other. If they cut off
their opponents’ horns and obtain their Dragon Emperor
Immortal Designs, they can eliminate their opponent directly."
Wu Yu asked, "Will he get the other party’s Dragon Emperor
Immortal Design?"
Luo pin replied, "Of course not, we can only eliminate and
disqualify the opponents. Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs
cannot be integrated into another Dragon Emperor Immortal
Designs. Only Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs and
Purgatory Immortal Designs can be integrated into each other."
"How long will the trial last?"
"At the end of one year, the top 10 challengers with the
strongest Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs will emerge
victorious, gain fame, and many other extremely precious
rewards. Of course, the top four will still have to participate in
a special round of battle to determine the top three. As a matter
of fact, the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory Trial is divided into
two parts. The first part is conducted in the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory, and the second part is actually more popular
amongst the mystical dragons. It will be conducted on the level
above the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, namely the Dragon
Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield. This is where we will
determine the top three winners of the trial."
"Won’t the top three be determined according to the ranking of
the strength of their Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs?" Wu
Yu asked.
Luo Pin shook her head and said, "It’s not as simple as that. For
the fifth to tenth places, the strength of their Dragon Emperor
Immortal Designs will indeed determine their final ranking.
However, for the top four, no matter how strong their Dragon
Emperor Immortal Designs are, they can only be regarded as
tickets to the final battle. Ultimately, the ranking of the top four
can only be determined through the four final battles.”
This was why the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory was more
advanced and complicated, especially with the setting of the
final battle. This final battle made the whole Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory Trial more interesting. Of course, it could also make
the young dragons more enthusiastic. It was always more
exciting to defeat opponents and win first place in front of an
audience!
"The first battle will be between the challengers ranking second
and third place according to the strength of their Dragon
Emperor Immortal Designs, while the second battle will be
between the challengers ranking in the first and fourth places.
The two challengers who lose the first round of battle will fight
to compete for third place in the final battle. While the two
challengers who won the first round of battle will fight to
compete for the championship."
This was basically how the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory Trial
would proceed.
In the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, no one would know how
strong their own Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs were, so
they would need to kill constantly to ensure that they were
leading in the rankings.
Every mystical dragon will fight hard to enter the top 10, to
gain fame, to bring glory to their ancestors, to bring pride to
their parents, and, of course, for the sake of their future! For the
reward!
The entire Sky Heart Tribe was revved up for this!
Of course, after listening to Luo Pin’s introduction, Wu Yu was
very calm. His goal was simply to learn more about the
purgatory.
If he were to enter the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, he would
not be interested in the prisoners or the reward. This was
because he wanted to keep a low profile. His goal was to seek
the person who had spoken to him.
He wanted to know what that person wanted to do.
Would he be a friend of the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal....
Would he be able to answer his questions....
Or would he be Sun Wudao....
It was all these possibilities that tempted Wu Yu to enter the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, not the great challenge that was
about to take place there. That challenge belonged to the
mystical dragons and not him.
Even the Dragon Emperor Immortal Design, which was the
basis of the trial, was to be carved on dragon horns, which he
did not have at all.
Wu Yu could not decide what to do now, so he had to calm
down.
"In fact, I found out recently that the rewards for the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory are generous. The winner gets the
opportunity to train in the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn. This is
actually the ultimate goal of every mystical dragon. Because
that is the place that every mystical dragon dreams of entering."
Luo Pin was looking forward to that as well.
"The Tower of Dragon’s Dawn? That’s the prize too?"
Wu Yu was a little surprised. He had the memories of some
mystical dragons, so he knew what the Tower of Dragon’s
Dawn was.
To put it simply, it was a little similar to the Ancient Emperor
Dao Palace.
It was a place for dao musing.
At the same time, it was also a little similar to the Demon Hall
of Dao Techniques that Wu Yu had obtained previously.
The Tower of Dragon’s Dawn housed countless wills of the
mystical dragon tribe. Their daos, understanding,
demonstrations, and numerous mystical dragon immortal
techniques were left within.
If a fortunate person entered and received the guidance from
his ancestor, the rewards would be massive.
The elite mystical dragons around today had basically all
cultivated in the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn. It was a place for
one to forge a solid foundation. On top of that, the rule of the
Tower of Dragon’s Dawn was that one could only enter once
in one’s lifetime.
Most of the mystical dragons wouldn’t have the opportunity to
enter the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn.
Those that had entered had undergone huge metamorphoses
after exiting. Many of them had raised their cultivation levels
by several tiers within the short span of a few hundred years.
Space within the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn was limited.
Therefore, for the mystical dragon tribe, and the younger
mystical dragons in particular, clinching the right to enter the
Tower of Dragon’s Dawn was critical.
It was definitely an opportunity to reach for the skies. Not only
would it enable successive cultivation level breakthroughs, it
would even have great influence on one’s future cultivation
path.
It would help one forge a solid foundation and would guide one
on the correct path.
Basically, the opportunity to enter the Tower of Dragon’s
Dawn dwarfed all other rewards.
This was the case despite there being supreme treasures that
only those at the Immortal Lord Realm could possibly obtain!
Luo Pin also told Wu Yu about the other rewards.
After the battles, the fifth to tenth ranked mystical dragons will
have the opportunity to cultivate in the Tower of Dragon’s
Dawn for 500 years. They will also each receive a destinable
immortal treasure, a destinable immortal talisman, three
Genesis Mystical Pills of destinable true immortal medicine-
grade, and a certain amount of true immortal medicines,
immortal kernels, and precious quintessences. Wu Yu
understood that when the interior spirit designs within an
immortal design exceeded 10 million, it would be considered
ancient immortal design. For example, the Luminary Celestial
Dragon Mantra Sword possessed an ancient immortal design.
When the scale and number reached and exceeded the limit of
100 million, it would be called an immortal lord design. It was
said that each immortal lord design had its own world that made
it possible to encompass 100 million spirit designs.
Immortal lord designs could come in various forms. Among
which, if an immortal lord design was engraved and used in
forging immortal treasures using precious quintessences with
at least 1,000 spiritual marks, one could create a destinable
immortal treasure after 1,000 or even 10,000 years of refining.
Destinable immortal treasures were on a whole new level
compared to ancient immortal treasures. A destinable immortal
treasure had its own power of a world. While attacking and
defending, it would be as though they had a world reinforcing
them.
Immortal lord designs could also be used with immortal
essences with at least 1,000 spiritual marks to create a myriad
of destinable true immortal medicines. Similarly, it would take
a long time. The Genesis Mystical Pill was just one type of
these medicines. It could help one enlarge or create his own
autonomous realm.
Destinable immortal talismans also had at least 100 million
spirit designs. If used by an ordinary immortal, one could even
exterminate an elite Xuan immortal!
"If the rewards for the fifth to tenth ranked are so amazing, what
about the top 4?"
The top four would be determined with battles. The rewards
were amazing enough to light up anyone’s eyes.
Luo Pin’s eyes gleaned with envy as she explained, "The fourth
ranked dragon is slightly better than the other six. He will get
1,000 years of cultivation in the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn. He
will also receive a destinable immortal treasure, a destinable
immortal talisman, three Genesis Mystical Pills of destinable
true immortal medicine-grade, and a certain amount of true
immortal medicines, immortal kernels, and precious
quintessences. However, the quality of his destinable immortal
treasure will be slightly better."
Putting it simply, the fourth ranked would get 500 more years
in the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn. As for the other rewards, they
were similar to those of the other six. The main reason is
because getting fourth would mean he had lost two fights in a
row. In other words, he was a failure.
"The third ranked will get substantially more. The time in the
Tower of Dragon’s Dawn is increased to 2,000 years. Also, he
will get three destinable immortal talismans, a type of immortal
lord technique, and five pills of destinable true immortal
medicine-grade, of which three will be Genesis Mystical Pills."
Immortal lord techniques could only be practiced by those at
the Ruling Immortal Realm. Their power was naturally more
frightening, and only the top three would be rewarded with one.
"What about the destinable immortal treasure? The third ranked
doesn’t get one?" Wu Yu asked.
Luo Pin answered, "The destinable immortal treasure for the
third-ranked has been announced. It will be the Momentary
Heavenly Thunder Bead, which has more than 200 million
spirit designs. It can summon immortal kernel thunderbolts
with over 1,000 spiritual marks to attack. It is also a destinable
immortal treasure that many dream to own."
"What about second?"
"That will be even more amazing. The amount of destinable
true immortal medicines, destinable immortal talismans, and
immortal lord techniques will be even higher. They will also
get to cultivate in the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn for 4,000 years.
Moreover, the destinable immortal treasure for second place
has been announced too. It will be the Heavenly Wheel of
Melody that is capable of creating sounds that can extinguish
immortal spirits and massacre mortals. If it were used in the
mortal domain, just a sound note would decimate all the living
creatures in that realm."
Wu Yu was stumped. That sounded too frightening. It was not
surprising that so many people were losing their minds over the
assessment of the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
Regardless, Wu Yu wasn’t too interested. This was because it
would be too high-profile, making it harder for him to be with
Luo Pin. His objective was still to find out who was waiting for
him in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
Only the rewards for first place were left.
Luo Pin said, "The one who wins two consecutive matches in
the end will get 10 destinable immortal talismans, three
immortal lord techniques, and 10 destinable true immortal
medicine-grade pills, five of which will be Genesis Mystical
Pills. The opportunity to cultivate in the Tower of Dragon’s
Dawn has a maximum time limit of 10,000 years. Even the
dragon emperors themselves only spent 10,000 years in the
Tower of Dragon’s Dawn."
10,000 years was the limit, and one would benefit massively
from it.
It was said that if one entered as a peak heavenly immortal, he
could exit as a peak Xuan immortal in just 10,000 years!
The earlier one entered, the better it would be.
"As for the destinable immortal treasure rewarded to the
champion, I feel that it might be related to your Floating
Dreams Pagoda based on its name. Its name is the Floating
Dreams Sword. It is said that it was forged by an elite immortal
known as the Floating Dreams Immortal King in ancient times.
It is rumored that it has the power to slice through the space of
the 8,000 Sky Palaces and can cut through everything with its
incomparable sharpness. It has 500 million spirit designs, and
the Floating Dreams Sword is something that many dragon
lords are interested in."
"Floating Dreams Immortal King? Floating Dreams Sword?"
Wu Yu was a little surprised.
This was because the name was too similar to his Floating
Dreams Pagoda.
Even at this point, the Floating Dreams Pagoda had yet to fully
recognize Wu Yu as its owner. Wu Yu could even control
ancient immortal treasures now. Could it be that the Floating
Dreams Pagoda was a destinable immortal treasure? Similar to
the level of the Floating Dreams Sword?
And the voice from the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory....
The rewards for the champion... 10,000 years in the Tower of
Dragon’s Dawn, various immortal medicines, and immortal
talismans... and there was the Floating Dreams Sword.
All of these had piqued Wu Yu’s interest, unknowingly
drawing him to participate in the assessment of the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory.
It was especially so for the voice that Wu Yu deemed as
extremely important.
Subsequently, Luo Pin explained the details of many other
aspects to Wu Yu.
For example, his competitors.
"I heard that the three dragons from our Primordial Immortal
Empire are almost certainly the weakest among all participants.
"We are ranked 87th among the Hundred Empires. Overall, our
Primordial Immortal Empire is weak when compared to the
other empires.

"Therefore, we are only allowed three participants this time.

For those larger empires, like the number one empire of the Sky
Heart Tribe, the Heaven’s Will Empire, I heard that they just
determined who will be participating a few days ago. They will
be sending 19 dragons. That’s several times more than us.
"Counting the entire Sky Heart Tribe, there will likely be over
600 participants. Among which, the weakest will be 2-Xuan
immortals, the level of Yu Manyuan. In total, there will only be
four or five at this level. Xing Ling will probably be in the
bottom 20 among the 600 participants, and Ye Xuanyi won’t
be much higher. Therefore, I think you can also tell that my
uncle isn’t very interested in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
In a way, he feels helpless. This is because the Primordial
Immortal Empire is facing the issue of a weak younger
generation.
"Right now, it’s hard for the mystical dragons from our
Primordial Immortal Empire to lift their heads up high when
they walk outside. Although our rank still remains at 87th, our
true rank might even be below 95th. Regardless, my uncle is
pretty strong himself. Among all the dragon kings, he could be
ranked around the middle."
Wu Yu had a rough understanding now.
He was thinking hard
"How is it? Little villain, have you decided on your next
move?" Luo Pin reached out her finger, lifted his chin, and
winked flirtatiously at him.
"Don’t try to seduce me. If I get crazy, I’ll be a real beast," said
Wu Yu.
"I don’t believe you."
"Huh?" Wu Yu was enraged. He pounced on her and kissed her
intensely.
After which, he said, "I’ve made up my mind. I’ll be going. If
I don’t go this time, I might regret it forever. Moreover, I won’t
have the opportunity to enter the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory
again. Since this is a trial given to me, I’ll be willing to accept.
Moreover, with my uniqueness, I might get stronger quicker in
the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory."
Luo Pin naturally knew that what he was referring to was his
devouring ability.
That was a battlefield.
Currently, it would be hard for Wu Yu to improve in a peaceful
environment. On the other hand, if he was on the battlefield, he
would be a predator and the nightmare of many people.
He would get stronger than anyone and could be more
frightening than anyone.
It was especially so in a place shrouded in death like the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory.
That was the battlefield for the young men and women of the
Sky Heart Tribe!
"I’ll support you. Moreover, you might not get into any
trouble." Luo Pin pulled him into her embrace. Wu Yu loved
her hugs. They were soft, gentle, and warming.
"Aren’t you afraid that our relationship will be affected if
you’re under the limelight?" Luo Pin asked beside his ear.
Wu Yu thought about it and said, "I understand. However,
cowering in fear isn’t my style. I’m not afraid of hurdles, I can
only react accordingly. Now that even the Ancient Emperor is
dead, is anything impossible?"
Once, the Ancient Emperor was unimaginably frightening in
his eyes.
In the mortal domain, where his cries for help went
unanswered... He had grown up in the tiger’s cave where the
Ancient Emperor was, staring at him and waiting to feast on
him.
In the end, Wu Yu ended up devouring him instead!
In that case, he couldn’t possibly back off and cower in fear in
the sky palaces. He was a brave man.
Accepting challenges was in his fate and what he desired.
As for Luo Pin, she loved his restlessness, passion, and direct
personality.
Therefore, she said, "That’s how I feel too. Cultivating silently
with me in this place isn’t suitable for you. We still have time.
As long as you become an elite immortal in the sky palaces,
there will be nothing that can stop us!"
Regardless of the hurdles that were ahead of them, they would
proceed together, hand in hand.
"Then, how should I discuss this with my uncle?"
That was the dilemma.
Wu Yu had previously indicated that he was not interested in
the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
Additionally, Wu Jun had said that it was too high-profile for
Wu Yu to take part in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory as a
human. It might even affect Wu Yu and Luo Pin’s relationship
negatively.
In the Primordial Immortal Empire, even people like the Jade
Mirror Dragon King and the Luminary Dragon King wanted to
interfere in their relationship, not to mention the other mystical
dragons who were stronger than Wu Jun.
For instance, the Dragon Emperor and the Revered Dragon
Council.
Of course, it was unlikely that such powerful beings would be
interested in Luo Pin’s relationship.
Especially when Wu Yu was indeed outstanding and had the
backing of an elite immortal.
Wu Yu thought carefully before saying, "If that is the case, then
maybe I can start convincing them by talking about the elite
immortal who is backing me."
Luo Pin’s eyes lit up.
Actually, Wu Yu was not lying. He was telling the truth that
there was a voice calling out to him and asking him to enter the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
After making their decision, they looked for the Baiyin Dragon
King and the Baiqin Dragon Queen.
........
Inside Qinyin Palace.
"Is there something that you need from the two of us?" Ye
Qianning asked with concern.
The Baiyin Dragon King was not very happy, and, in fact, he
was a little annoyed that they had interrupted their busy plan to
make baby dragons....
Although they had Luo Pin now, they still hoped to have a child
of their own. After all, the more the merrier....
Of course, they had always been working hard over the years.
Luo Pin said, "Adoptive Father, Adoptive Mother, Wu Yu has
made a decision and wants to share it with you. Can Uncle be
present as well?"
"What is it that requires my big brother as well?" the Baiyin
Dragon King asked with a stern face.
"Just do as the children ask." Ye Qianning glared at him.
"Alright, he should be around. Come along, we will go and look
for him!"
The four of them headed towards the Primordial Immortal
Dragon Palace in the Primordial Immortal Mountain Peak. That
was the core of the Primordial Immortal Empire.
Wu Jun was indeed there.
He had lived alone in the Primordial Immortal Mountain Peak
for many years. He had never shown any interest in taking a
wife and lived like a monk.
It was also because of this that he was stronger than Wu Hao
and had become the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon
king. They were actually around the same age.
Wu Jun was very happy to see the whole family. Of course, he
knew that it was because they had something to ask him.
Wu Hao said, "Wu Yu, you can tell us what you want to say
now. We are all here."
They probably thought that this was about Wu Yu and Luo
Pin’s relationship.
Wu Yu respectfully said, "Esteemed elders, I want to enter the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory to take part in the trial in seven
years."
This was not what Wu Hao had expected him to say. He had
thought that it had something to do with Luo Pin. Upon hearing
Wu Yu’s words, he shook his head and said, "Didn’t I tell you
before? Firstly, it is not good for your relationship if you are
too high-profile. Secondly, the positions have been filled up by
those three youngsters. My elder brother has announced that in
public, how can he go back on his word now?"
He thought that Wu Yu was being rash. He cared for both Wu
Yu and Luo Pin, and that was why he was more anxious.
"Wu Hao, don’t be anxious, let’s hear him out first." Wu Jun
looked at Wu Yu.
Wu Yu nodded and said, "Something happened today. I
suddenly heard someone telling me to go to the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory. I cannot find the source of this voice, so
I think that it was a message from the immortal who gave me
his legacy. Previously, he gave me similar instructions as well,
and I ended up with some great mysterious encounters."
When Wu Yu said that, the three elders immediately became
serious and looked at each other.
"You did not sense anyone else at Qinyin Palace?" Wu Jun
asked.
Wu Hao and his wife exchanged looks and then shook their
heads. Ye Qianning replied, "We did not sense anything. No
strangers have been near our palace. Besides, the Dragon
Emperor and the Revered Dragon Council would know if an
elite immortal had trespassed."
Actually, Wu Yu knew that they were highly impressed with
the immortal who was backing him.
At least Wu Jun thought that this immortal was stronger than
him. If that was the case, then this immortal must at least be at
the Eternal Immortal Emperor Realm.
Only immortals of that cultivation level could create an
exemplary genius like Wu Yu.
Now he was asking Wu Yu to enter the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory Trial.
"And there are no other options or ways of contacting him?"
Wu Jun asked Wu Yu.
Wu Yu shook his head.
The three elders became lost in thought.
Perhaps they were considering the risks. If this immortal was
plotting something against the mystical dragon tribe, then they
would be sinners if they let him enter the trial.
However, the possibility of that was small.
Besides, at the moment, there were no immortals that would
use such special means to go against the mystical dragon tribe.
This was because there was no reason for conflict.
Mystical dragons and immortal beasts were part of the 8,000
Sky Palaces.
The 8,000 Sky Palaces were very peaceful. No one would stir
up fights and wars for no reason.
They really valued Wu Yu’s immortal and even respected him.
After all, Wu Yu’s performance had surprised them.
"The two of you should go back for now. I will give you an
answer in three days’ time."
They needed to discuss and consider their options.
"Okay. Also, please don’t worry. After entering the purgatory,
I will be careful not to cause any trouble."
Wu Yu nodded and bowed.
Then he left with Luo Pin to allow the three elders to discuss.
They waited at Qinyin Palace.
During their time together, the three seasoned mystical dragons
had seen clearly what type of person Wu Yu was, so they
believed in him.
Their main point of consideration was whether they should take
the risk for Wu Yu. Because if they allowed him to enter the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, it would be difficult to predict
what would happen next.
"They will definitely allow you to enter the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory," Luo Pin said confidently.
"Why?"
"Because they are good people. They like and value us, so they
would not mind going through the trouble."
Luo Pin had already lived here for quite some time. She could
feel that the couple treated her sincerely and were extremely
happy to have her as their daughter.
As expected, after three days, the three of them summoned Wu
Yu and Luo Pin to the Primordial Immortal Mountain Peak.
The moment they entered, Wu Jun nodded and said, "I will
allow you to enter the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. However,
you also need to bear in mind that you must be careful before
you make any decisions. Think of Pin Er before you act. Wu
Yu, the three of us like you a lot. We also think that you will be
Pin Er’s future husband. Hence, you must not disappoint her."
Wu Yu bowed in gratitude and said, "Thank you. We have
already overcome so much to be together now. It can be said
that we have experienced many ups and downs, so I will
definitely bear that in mind."
"Very well."
It was really convenient to converse with them. They were
really supportive and reasonable.
Wu Yu stood up, delighted. However, he thought of something
and asked, "If I’m entering the trial, will Yu Manyuan be losing
his qualification to participate in the trial? If that is the case,
will the Jade Mirror Dragon King be upset? Will the others
have something to say about this?"
He thought about the possibility of objections from the other
mystical dragons.
The three elders laughed.
Wu Jun said, "I’m a bit embarrassed to say this, but the
Primordial Immortal Realm actually has five slots for
participation in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. However,
considering that there are no outstanding talents in the current
1-Yuan generation, I have only opened up three slots. This
saves us the trouble of sending two more people just to
embarrass ourselves. I hope that with your addition, the
Primordial Immortal Realm will not perform too badly."
So this was the truth.

Even with Wu Yu’s participation in the Dragon Emperor’s

Purgatory, there was still another slot that Wu Jun did not want
to fill up.
If they sent someone weaker than Yu Manyuan to participate in
the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, it would indeed be
embarrassing. After all, the 600-plus participants would be
clearly ranked. If most of the participants from the Primordial
Immortal Realm ended up at the bottom of the rankings, it
would be truly humiliating.
"You still have seven years of time. Prepare well. With your
potential, you can become much stronger within seven years.
Many of your opponents might be at the Nine Xuan Dao Realm,
or even at the Immortal Lord Realm," Wu Hao said.
He was still very concerned about the Primordial Immortal
Realm’s reputation.
Wu Yu said, "My main goal is to find out why I must enter the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. As for the competition, I will still
keep a low profile."
Ye Qianning said, "You’re right. Don’t listen to your Uncle
Hao. He is just being prideful and wants you to make it to the
top 10 so that he can have something to boast about. You can
just go ahead with your own plan."
"Shoo, don’t talk nonsense in front of the children," Wu Hao
said with a straight face.
Both Wu Yu and Luo Pin laughed. Wu Hao was actually quite
cute. He liked art and cooking, and he loved his wife, but he
also loved maintaining his image. He lived an interesting life.
Of course, Wu Jun was also a good person. Although he was
very strict, and his actions were always quick and swift. But no
one could sway his determination. He had even fulfilled Wu
Yu’s request for him.
Next, Wu Yu had seven years to prepare.
Of course, to an immortal, seven years was actually a very short
period of time. It would pass by in a flash.
It had taken Wu Yu a lot of effort to figure out the last few tiers
of the Bodhi Immortal Dao Art and the Nine Aspects of the
Venerable Buddha. After all, the strongest beings that he had
devoured were those two mystical dragons, and they were not
very strong.
Hence, even when Wu Yu stole their comprehension abilities,
it was a tedious affair to break through to the higher tiers. He
needed to take more time and rely on himself to train.
Luo Pin was also training to be stronger.
She did not want to lag too far behind from Wu Yu. Although
she did not mention it again, she obviously wanted to keep up
with him as much as possible.
Because Wu Yu had also worked just as hard to catch up to her.
To her, love meant giving to each other. She did not want to be
the only one on the receiving end.
Wu Yu and her trained in seclusion together.
Seven years!
For seven years, they stayed by each other’s side.
For these seven years, Wu Yu was happy and satisfied.
Occasionally, he would leave the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm and return to the Great Ancient Ink Realm to visit Wu
You and the others, and check on their progress.
He would also bring the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi out
for a breather.
And he would purchase some more resources.
Most of the time, of course, he was training.
Seven years of hard training!
Finally, even with his limited comprehension ability, he still
managed to raise the Bodhi Immortal Dao Art to the ninth tier
at a terrifying speed. It was a complete success!
The Lightning Aspect Realm, the Darkness Aspect Realm, and
the Light Aspect Realm had all been formed successfully. The
Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha was completely
formed!
He had completed his training in the two Longevity Immortal
Arts.
Of course, as he had not devoured anyone, he had spent a lot of
time absorbing and refining immortal qi. Occasionally, he
would use some true immortal medicines to help speed up the
process.
Now he was extremely strong and had reached a stage where
he thought was perfect. Next, he just had to break through to
the next realm to become a Xuan immortal!
However, to achieve that, he would need to integrate all the dao
that he had into one. For the time being, he did not know the
way to do that. He would have to continue training and
consolidate his thoughts. Hence, he had reached his limit in his
cultivation before the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory started.
Luo Pin had progressed smoothly into a 2-Yuan heavenly
immortal as well.
In fact, the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi had also become
2-Yuan heavenly immortals. Of course, Ye Xixi was
considered a 2-Yuan ghostly immortal.
Now Wu Yu was a true 9-Yuan heavenly immortal.
Of course, the average Xuan immortal could not even compare
to his current combat power.
Soon after that, the battle of the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory
began!
The Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory was where all the nine great
tribes of the mystical dragons gathered. The dragon lords,
dragon kings, and other mighty warriors would come together
to watch the mystical dragon geniuses under one yuan of age
battle.
Only those of dragon lord status and above were allowed to
watch the battle. Heavenly immortals and Xuan immortals
were not allowed to watch.
Unless they were of eminent status and were escorted by their
seniors.
Therefore, of course, Luo Pin could go. She was naturally
concerned about Wu Yu, especially the voice that told him to
enter the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. In the end, she did not
know what it was.
In these seven years, the interest in the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory only continued to build.
In the Primordial Immortal Empire, many people were also
discussing it.
However, what the ordinary mystical dragons did not know was
that Wu Jun had already registered Wu Yu’s name.
Therefore, they were still discussing Ye Xuanyi, Yu Manyuan,
and Xing Ling.
When the other empires’ names were submitted, the Primordial
Immortal Empire’s mystical dragons took a great blow to their
confidence.
Because this line-up was too weak. There were even 2-Xuan
immortals.
As for the neighboring empires, their lowest was a 4-Xuan
immortal, and it was said that this 4-Xuan immortal had
successfully risen to a 5-Xuan immortal within these seven
years.
The weakest was stronger than the strongest from the
Primordial Immortal Empire.
And there was no way to compete against those from the top 10
empires. Those empires would easily have 10 or 20 people
fighting.
These slots were assigned according to one’s past battle
records.
Each time, the Dragon Emperor Immortal Design rankings
were very clearly displayed.
Those that led the list would be showered in glory, while those
that sank to the bottom would endure taunts and ridicule.
This was also why the Primordial Immortal Empire’s mystical
dragons were troubled, worried that the Primordial Immortal
Empire would be humiliated again. Some even chose to go into
seclusion, to tide past this wave. They would rather save
themselves the jeering.
However, they still had to steel themselves and take the
challenge. On this day, the fighters and spectators all headed
for the Primordial Immortal Mountain Peak. After gathering
here, Wu Jun led them all to Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield.
That was the core of the Sky Heart Tribe.
Below the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield was the
famous Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
Of course, it was one of the entrances into the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory.
The Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory was fairly huge, and its edges
could not even be seen.
Wu Hao, Ye Qianning, Wu Yu, and Luo Pin had already come
to meet Wu Jun very early.
"It’s only been seven years, and you’ve improved so much?"
When they met, Wu Jun could already sense Wu Yu’s
enormous improvements.
Although Wu Yu was still a heavenly immortal, he had more
or less completed the Longevity Immortal Realm.
Wu Hao was quite smug about it. "I told you. This kid is
something special. He might even make a name for himself in
the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory."
Ye Qianning said, "That’s not important. What’s more
important is for him to complete his own matter. Wu Yu, don’t
listen to your Uncle Hao’s nonsense. This time, our competitors
from the Primordial Immortal Empire are indeed weaker. Your
Uncle Hao is prideful, and doesn’t want to lose too badly.
That’s why he’s always hinting at you. But it has nothing to do
with you. Ignore him."
Wu Hao could only cheekily grin.
The couple’s relationship was truly excellent.
Wu Jun nodded as well. "That’s right. Focus on your own
matters. Everything else is secondary."
Wu Yu nodded. He then said, "Mm, I understand."
He indeed felt that it would be best for him to remain low-
profile so that he and Luo Pin could live low-profile.
For seven years, Wu Yu and her had lived like a family, and
their every action responded to each other.
Next, the dragon lords and dragon kings that had consented to
watch arrived. The dozens of dragon kings from the Primordial
Immortal Empire would definitely be in attendance. There were
also about 200 more dragon lords at the elite Immortal Lord
Realm who would also be present. Wu Yu even saw the
Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch. He was still Luo Pin’s
teacher, but he would not dare to do anything reckless now.
Everyone was here.
The Jade Mirror Dragon Queen had brought her son, Yu
Manyuan, and they were a little late.
However, the Luminary Dragon King had brought Xing Ling,
and the Interstellar Domain Dragon King had brought Ye
Xuanyi, and they were even later. They probably wanted some
more time.
Now all were present.
Wu Jun took a look at Ye Xuanyi, who was full of confidence
and might.
"Not bad, you became a 5-Xuan immortal in such a short time."
The other dragon kings had seen that Ye Xuanyi had indeed
improved.
"The Luminary Dragon King has guided him well. With this,
our Primordial Immortal Empire still holds some hope. We
might even get a good result."
"It’s all on Xuanyi."
Hearing this, the Jade Mirror Dragon Queen was unhappy. She
said, "My son might be at a lower cultivation level, but he’s
smart. In the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, brains are also
important. It’s not just about brawn. I think he will perform well
as well."
Yu Manyuan smiled. "Mother, do not worry. I’ve researched
and prepared for many years. I will not let the Primordial
Immortal Empire down."
Xing Ling snickered but did not comment. Evidently, he was
laughing at him.
"Shall we compete?" Yu Manyuan looked over at him.
"Sure. In a year, let’s see who ranks higher."
"Surely not. You might not even last a year." Yu Manyuan
sneered coldly.
Even before they started, there was already internal conflict.
This was not a good sign.
Because they were ranked as one of the last empires, they
should be more united instead. They should stick together and
fight together, and not seek individual glory. Usually, this
would allow them to fight above their standard.
Wu Jun had also mentioned that they should be united in the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. However, seeing their attitudes,
it was obvious that they would readily go their own ways.
Wu Jun’s face was stern. "This is no laughing matter. The pride
of the Primordial Immortal Empire rests on you four. Do not
throw our pride to the dust and let it be trampled."
"Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king, please do not
worry. They can definitely do it," the Luminary Dragon King
said.
The other dragon kings chimed in as well, giving the youngsters
some words of support.
"Wait, four?" The Jade Mirror Dragon Queen started. "Not
three? Why are there four?"
Wu Jun pointed towards Wu Yu. "We have five slots, but others
do not even meet the cultivation level criterion, and so we only
chose three. Wu Yu is quite strong, and can bring glory to our
Primordial Immortal Empire. I let him go as well. As my
disciple."
"What?"
This was a complete surprise to everyone, who took a while to
comprehend it.
Of course, Wu Yu’s strength was a guarantee. Seven years ago,
he had cleanly defeated Ye Xuanyi.
"But he’s a human...." The Jade Mirror Dragon Queen was not
too willing.
Wu Jun’s eyes landed on her. "Even the first-ranked empire’s
Sky Will Dragon King has allowed him to compete. You have
an objection?"
The Jade Mirror Dragon Queen flinched and then hurriedly
said, "Of course not. I feel that Wu Yu is good. He will
definitely perform well."
She had spoken too much.
Wu Yu’s participation did not affect her own son’s ranking.
Therefore, she should not have impulsively spoken up. And
now she regretted it a little.

The Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory was hosted by the Sky Will

Empire’s dragon king, who was ranked first among the
Hundred Empire Dragon Kings. The Sky Wing Dragon King
was the foremost leader in the Sky Heart Tribe, and the son of
the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor, who was one of the Nine Great
Dragon Emperors. His position in the Sky Heart Tribe was
unassailable. He had already seen the name list, so the Jade
Mirror Dragon Queen’s words were meaningless.
They were all dragon kings, but the difference between the Jade
Mirror Dragon Queen and theSky Wing Dragon King was like
heaven and earth.
No one said any more, but a few more looks were directed Wu
Yu’s way.
There was one particular heated gaze. Wu Yu looked, and saw
that it was Ye Xuanyi.
"Wu Yu, luckily, you’re fighting. Otherwise, there would be no
way to compare us. I will crush you in the Purgatory. I will
show you who’s ranked first in the Primordial Immortal Empire
is," Ye Xuanyi said with conviction.
"What does first in the Primordial Immortal Empire matter?
First in the Sky Heart Tribe sounds a bit more worthy." Wu Yu
laughed.
Since he had become the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast, no
one who had lost to him would stand a chance at catching up
again.
Ye Xuanyi had thought that becoming a 5-Xuan immortal, with
one more immortal dao mark, would allow him to stand against
Wu Yu.
"Wait and see."
Because of Wu Yu, the three of them had actually joined back
up together. No matter what, they did not wish to lose to Wu
Yu.
"Depart." Led by Wu Jun, the contingent of a few hundred
mystical dragons took to the skies, heading for Dragon
Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield.
All of them were mystical dragons, save for a single human -
Wu Yu.
It was a magnificent sight, especially the huge bodies of the
dragon kings. Wu Yu was by Luo Pin’s side, miniscule and
insignificant.
He was indeed insignificant in the world of mystical dragons.
"Are you nervous?" Luo Pin asked concernedly.
"Not at all." Wu Yu was only curious as to whose voice had
compelled him thus.
"You must come out alive. I will wait for you outside," Luo Pin
said tenderly.
"Of course. With such a great beauty like you, if I die inside,
doesn’t that mean someone else will benefit?"
"Don’t talk rubbish. Without you, no one else can have me,"
Luo Pin said.
"I was just kidding. No need to be nervous. It’ll be fine." Wu
Yu knew that her concern meant that she was worried.
After all, she had experienced such fear before.
As a man, Wu Yu swore that he would never let the episode
with the Ancient Emperor happen again.
As the Primordial Immortal Empire’s representative contingent
headed for Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield, the other
contingents from the Hundred Empires were also headed there.
All the super experts of the Sky Heart Tribe were headed
towards the same central location.
"Quick, look! So many dragon kings!"
"I’m so envious. I want to go to the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield to see as well!"
"Train hard! One day, we, too, can do it!"
Along the way, many mystical dragons looked up in admiration
as the huge dragon kings flew overhead.
They came from all over the Sky Heart Tribe.
They drew closer and closer.
Many large groups were also making their way in the same
direction.
The Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield had to be massive
to hold so many dragon lords and dragon kings. This was
basically where all the grand events of the mystical dragons
were held.
"We’re almost there."
Wu Yu could vaguely make out a huge mirror ahead, which
seemed like the 1-Yuan Mystical Dragon Battlefield, but 1,000
times larger.
The white, reflective surface beamed a blinding light up
towards the sky as a column of light.
All around the reflective surface were tall platforms, on which
the dragon lords and dragon kings sat on jeweled thrones.
Below the mirror was the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
This was the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield. Although
they had yet to arrive, Wu Yu could already see that many elite
mystical dragons were seated on their respective thrones.
Many mystical dragons had not seen each other in a while, and
were currently breaking the ice and establishing ties again.
These were all dragon kings and dragon lords at the Great Void
Immortal Realm or Immortal Lord Realm. They were currently
beings whom Wu Yu could not touch yet. It was an awesome
sight.
And Wu Yu knew that there were such mighty immortals
everywhere in the 8,000 Sky Palaces.
The sky palaces were just too huge.
It was not just a gathering of immortals from the plethora of
Greater and Lesser Realms, but also a gathering of immortals
throughout the course of time.
Here, above the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield, the
space allocated to the rank 87 Primordial Immortal Empire was
not that big. Wu Yu had seen that other contingents had 100 to
200 people escorting a dragon king alone.
And at this time, a huge flock of mystical dragons flew above
Wu Yu’s head, blotting out the sky. He looked up to see
roughly 2,000 mystical dragons. They were mostly dragon
lords at the Immortal Lord Realm, and there were at least 10
times more Great Void Immortal Realm dragon kings
compared to the Primordial Immortal Empire.
"What is that grand party?" Wu Yu asked Wu Hao.
"That’s two empires arriving together. They are ranked second
and third. What do you think?" Wu Hao’s face darkened as he
looked at that contingent.
He seemed to detest them.
If they were contingents, the size was understandable. Besides,
they were ranked second and third, right after the Sky Will
Empire. It made sense for them to be that big.
Wu Yu was still thinking about this when a mocking voice
came from the crowd of dragons overhead. "Oh? If it isn’t the
dragons of the barren line, the Primordial Immortal Dragons."
This group of mystical dragons more than 10 times the
Primordial Immortal Empire’s size swooped down on them,
completely swamping the Primordial Immortal Empire’s
mystical dragons. The sheer size of them was suffocating.
There were hundreds of dragon kings and more than a thousand
dragon lords. They were all huge mystical dragons, and Wu Yu
felt completely overwhelmed. They were all targeting the
Primordial Immortal Empire.
The opponents had called Wu Jun and Wu Hao the dragons of
the barren line, meaning they had no descendants. This was
clearly a taunt. They were taunting Wu Hao and Ye Qianning
for not having children after so many years.
But, curiously, how had the small Primordial Immortal Empire
gotten into such loggerheads with the big players like the
second and third ranks?
Wu Yu saw that Wu Jun, Wu Hao, Ye Qianning, and many
other dragon kings were looking sour. Those like the Jade
Mirror Dragon Queen even looked frightened. If not for their
pride, they would probably be fleeing the scene.
Wu Yu looked at the contingent in front.
The most terrifying of all had to be the two Hundred Empire
Dragon Kings. They were ranked second and third.
They looked to be the same type of mystical dragon. Wu Yu
saw that they looked similar to the Primordial Immortal
Dragons. They were also white and pure, like jade. They were
surrounded by immortal qi as well. However, this sort of
mystical dragon was even more aggressive than the Primordial
Immortal Dragons. They looked more savage and had more
killing techniques. They were born rulers.
He searched his own memories, which came from the two
Shackled God Tribe mystical dragons. He realized that the Sky
Heart Tribe’s Sky Heart Dragon Emperor came from an elite
line of ultimate mystical dragons called Ancient Sky Heart
Dragons. They were one of the nine revered bloodlines in the
mystical dragon tribe.
Ancient Sky Heart Dragons were very rare, and the Sky Heart
Tribe only had the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor.
The Sky Heart Dragon Emperor had three children, two males
and a female!
They were all born to the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor, but their
bloodlines were slightly inferior. They were all Primordial
Divine Dragons. They were very similar to the Primordial
Immortal Dragons, except they were more savage compared to
the more mysterious Primordial Immortal Dragons.
The two monstrous mystical dragons before them were
Primordial Divine Dragons. And the first-ranked dragon king,
the Sky Will Dragon King, was also a Primordial Divine
Dragon.
This meant that the three children of the Sky Heart Dragon
Emperor were all Primordial Divine Dragons, and they were
the first, second, and third empires’ dragon kings. Without a
doubt, they were the strongest amongst the Hundred Empire
Dragon Kings.
The second-ranked Hundred Empire Dragon King was Sky
Shadow Dragon Queen. A female, and she had a frosty
expression on her face. She did not speak.
The third-ranked Hundred Empire Dragon King was the Sky
Chariot Dragon King, and he was the one who had called the
Primordial Immortal Dragons "dragons of the barren line."
It was also him who had led his group to bar the way against
Wu Jun, Wu Hao, and Ye Qianning.
Behind these two Hundred Empire Dragon Kings were many
other dragon kings and dragon lords. They all swooped down
to stare at the Primordial Immortal Empire contingent, which
looked weak by comparison.
What did they want to do?
Wu Jun frowned. He had probably not expected to meet them
here, and they were about to enter the field. He said, "Sky
Shadow Dragon Queen, Sky Chariot Dragon King. It has been
a while, and you are both as outstanding as ever. I’m impressed.
However, let’s go into the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield before we talk more."
The army of mystical dragons continued to point and laugh at
the Primordial Immortal Empire, jeering at how weak their
line-up was compared to the likes of the Sky Shadow Empire’s
and the Sky Chariot Empire’s.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King’s eyes landed on Wu Jun and
then on Ye Qianning.
"I say, Ning Er, time has proven that your judgment was truly
terrible. After so many years, this Wu Hao is still at that trash
tier. I can’t bear to look at him. He didn’t even bring you a
single child, so clearly his failures are also true in that aspect.
It’s too late to regret now. Pity, pity." He sneered and snickered,
and the other dragon kings laughed on cue.

Wu Yu understood now. They were love rivals! When they

were young, the Sky Chariot Dragon King must have fancied
Ye Qianning, but Ye Qianning had chosen Wu Hao. Even
though he was the son of a dragon emperor, he could not
forcefully demand love, and his resentment had been nursed
until today. After all, Ye Qianning was a beauty compared to
the other mystical dragons. Primordial Immortal Dragons were
especially beautiful and ethereal, and their bloodline was
considered one of the best amongst the mystical dragons.
Wu Hao flushed at being humiliated before everyone.
However, Ye Qianning held him back. She stood by his side
and replied in a chilly tone, "Many thanks to the Sky Chariot
Dragon King for his concern. However, my husband and I are
getting along just fine. We are blissfully happy, something that
I’m afraid the Sky Chariot Dragon King will never understand.
You need not worry about it either. In my eyes, my husband is
the best man in the world, and no one can compare to him."
The Sky Chariot Dragon King choked on his laughter. "Keep
on deceiving yourself, then. Can trash like Wu Hao even
withstand a single attack from me? Weak? So be it. But after so
many years, you two Primordial Immortal Dragons have not
even produced a single offspring. You have contributed
nothing to the mystical dragon tribe."
He was very cocky, and Wu Yu saw that there was a smaller
Primordial Divine Dragon beside him. He also laughed and
jeered cruelly at them, and from his aura, he was probably an
Immortal Lord Realm dragon. This was evidently the Sky
Chariot Dragon King’s son.
The competitors of the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory were by
the Hundred Empire Dragon Kings’ side. Wu Yu guessed that
this little Primordial Divine Dragon might even be competing.
After all, he had heard that there were Immortal Lord Realm
competitors in this iteration.
The other competitors were more obvious. They were mostly
at the Xuan immortal realm. The Primordial Immortal Empire
only had four, but these two empires together had close to 40!
The Sky Chariot Dragon King had once lost his love painfully,
and was probably pushing Wu Hao around to mask his pain.
That was why the second-ranked Sky Shadow Dragon Queen
was finding this boring.
But Wu Hao was indeed angered to hear this. By saying this in
public, the Sky Chariot Dragon King’s words would definitely
spread. The phrase “dragons of the barren line” would even
paint Wu Hao as the laughing stock of the mystical dragon
tribe.
Luo Pin was also angry.
Wu Yu liked their family very much, and for them to fume
helplessly made Wu Yu uncomfortable as well. But he had to
concede that they indeed outshone Wu Hao, whether in birth,
strength, or status.
"Wu Hao, you don’t need to hang your head in shame. If it’s
just ‘that thing’ that doesn’t work, it’s no big deal. I can take
your place." The Sky Chariot Dragon King taunted him
crudely.
All 2,000 mystical dragons burst into uproarious laughter.
Probably everyone in the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield had heard it.
Ye Qianning turned green with anger. She shouted, "To think
that the mighty Sky Chariot Dragon King is such a despicable
person! A shame to civilization!"
"That’s who I am. What are you going to do about it? Get your
worthless husband to challenge me?" the Sky Chariot Dragon
King said mockingly at Wu Hao.
"Damn you!" Before this, it had always been Ye Qianning
holding Wu Hao back. But now she had lost control too. She
bellowed and was about to charge the Sky Chariot Dragon
King, but this time it was Wu Jun who held her back.
"You’re not young anymore. Don’t entertain these childish
antics. Sky Chariot Dragon King, watch your own
respectability. Your taunting is merely venting, because you
could not win Ye Qianning back then. No matter how strong
you might be, you lost to my little brother in that contest.
Today, you throw the weight of your authority and strength
around, and that only makes you look more pathetic in my eyes.
You are the son of the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor, and we
cannot compete with that. If you really have something to
prove, do it with your own siblings. What does bullying us
accomplish?"
Wu Jun spoke strongly, and his words were barbed as well. If
they were goaded to fighting here, they would be the fools. As
much as the opponent blabbed, they were nothing but words.
As expected, Wu Jun’s words caused the laughing to peter off.
Wu Jun was right. The Sky Chariot Dragon King was resentful.
The Sky Shadow Dragon Queen said, "Enough. Sky Chariot,
stop starting useless quarrels. It’s been over for years."
The Sky Chariot Dragon King had stopped laughing as well,
his face turning haughty again. He looked at Wu Jun fiercely.
They were both Hundred Empire Dragon Kings, but Wu Jun
was definitely not his match. However, their statuses were
equal, and even though he was the son of the Sky Heart Dragon
Emperor, there was nothing he could do to Wu Jun.
Suddenly, he spotted Luo Pin.
"Primordial Immortal Dragon!" The Sky Chariot Dragon
King’s eyes darkened. He felt like he had been slapped in the
face. He had not heard of Ye Qianning getting pregnant.
But Wu Jun had no dao companion. This Primordial Immortal
Dragon must’ve been born of Ye Qianning!
A dragon king hurried forward from the side to speak a few
words to the Sky Chariot Dragon King. The Sky Chariot
Dragon King’s expression cleared and he scoffed in relief. "So
even a poor place like the mortal domain can produce
Primordial Immortal Dragons. You are really clever, to
immediately take her in as an adopted daughter. That way, you
can alleviate the pain of being childless! Haha."
Many mystical dragons were looking at Luo Pin.
Ignoring everyone else, the Sky Chariot Dragon King
addressed Luo Pin, "Kid, how about I adopt you instead? I can
give you even better things than that useless adoptive father of
yours. The Primordial Immortal Empire is a land of poverty, it
can’t compare to the Sky Chariot Empire at all.
"Precisely. Come to Sky Chariot Empire. When you grow up,
we have many handsome and talented youths waiting for you
there. There are none at all in the Primordial Immortal Empire!"
The mystical dragons laughed again.
They were trying to intimidate Luo Pin.
However, Luo Pin was wise enough to choose to remain silent.
She instead came to stand between Wu Hao and Ye Qianning,
leaning with them. This sort of close connection was an
intangible resistance against the Sky Chariot Dragon King, and
it was a clever move.
This was a fight between those at the Great Void Immortal
Realm, and she need not speak.
The Sky Shadow Dragon Queen was bored by this. She turned
to leave, taking the Sky Shadow Empire people with her. After
all, the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield was just ahead,
and she did not want others to think that she was an accomplice
to the Sky Chariot Dragon King’s bullying.
When the Sky Shadow Dragon Queen left, the Sky Chariot
Dragon King was enraged by his inability to score verbally. He
turned on his own people and said, "Sky Chariot Empire
competitors, listen up. If you see any Primordial Immortal
Empire competitors, give them a beating for me. Beat them to
an inch of death. Teach them a lesson they will never forget!
Haha! We go!"
Saying so, he turned spitefully, taking his Sky Chariot Empire
dragons and leaving.
Actually, not even being able to beat Wu Hao was a huge thorn
in his heart. Although many years had passed, he was still
unhappy. Each time he thought about it, his heart wrenched.
"Brother, many thanks. And you as well. I was too rash today.
Both of you were more mature than I was." Wu Hao calmed
down and first thanked Wu Jun for saving his pride. Secondly,
he thanked his wife, who had stuck by him from beginning to
end.
"And Pin Er, thank you for acknowledging me." Wu Hao felt
blessed.
Even while he was being insulted, his family stood with him,
defending his honor.
"Adoptive Father, I have had no parents since young. You are
already like my parents," Luo Pin said softly. These were her
heartfelt words.
Wu Yu felt a little embarrassed. The fact that Luo Pin could
feel so close to them made him happy.
However, it was the Jade Mirror Dragon Queen who was
weeping worried tears. "What are we to do? Can we still pull
out? My son can’t be bullied by them. There are so many
experts from the Sky Chariot Empire, even ones at the Immortal
Lord Realm. If my son goes in, he’ll be doomed!"
Even the Luminary Dragon King and the Interstellar Domain
Dragon King had turned pale. Ye Xuanyi, Xing Ling, and Yu
Manyuan were also trembling.
Wu Hao stormed, "Can you have some guts? Scared shitless
just by some words? The Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory has
rules, and they will not dare to act recklessly. There’s also the
Escape Immortal Design that will allow them to withdraw."
The Jade Mirror Dragon Queen was angry too. "What unfeeling
words you speak! Since you have no son entering, of course
you are not afraid! It’s all your fault. If you hadn’t offended the
Sky Chariot Dragon King, would things turn out like this?"
Wu Jun said grimly, "Jade Mirror Dragon Queen, shut your
mouth. Look at you. How unbecoming of a dragon king!"
The Jade Mirror Dragon Queen continued ranting, "All of you!
Truly a weak empire. Nothing but weakness. After this
challenge ends, I will definitely apply to leave the Primordial
Immortal Empire! If I keep following you, I’ll be destroyed by
the Sky Chariot Dragon King one day. You even dared to cross
the son of the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor."
Dragon kings could apply to leave to other empires.
Ye Qianning said, "Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
No one will miss you. You’re always buzzing and buzzing like
a housefly. Go as far as you wish."
She could not be bothered to spare any civility for the Jade
Mirror Dragon Queen.
"Stop making a fuss." Wu Jun was angered, and the glint in his
eye scared the Jade Mirror Dragon Queen. The other dragon
kings by her side also advised her to keep her thoughts to
herself.
"We go in." Wu Jun’s face was grim. To think that so many
things would happen before they even entered. Now it seemed
like even Ye Xuanyi was cowed. The Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory was hopeless. They would only be humiliated when
they went in.
He looked at Wu Yu. Luckily, Wu Yu did not seem very
affected.
Luo Pin was composed as well, and could even act with poise.
"Those that came from the mortal domain have been through
difficult centuries. They started from the bottom, so they are a
tough breed," Wu Jun marveled.
He called Wu Yu over to him and said, "I know you are quite
capable, but the Sky Chariot Empire has pitted themselves
against us. You must be careful."
Wu Yu nodded. "Uncle Jun, please do not worry. I have
mystiques that allow me to come and go like the wind. They
will not catch me."
Wu Jun said, "That was the Sky Chariot Dragon King’s son by
his side. His name is Tian Ming. He has been outstanding since
young and has already reached the Immortal Lord Realm. He
is the only Immortal Lord Realm cultivator amongst all the
competitors, and he is said to act with a cruel hand. Beware of
him. He even has a title already. He’s called the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord."
Wu Yu noted this and nodded. Tian Ming should be the
strongest in this trial. The children of the first and second
Hundred Empire Dragon Kings had won the trial and gone to
the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn to obtain great treasures before.
They were basically all elite dragon lords now, and it was Tian
Ming’s turn.
"Actually, 9000 years ago, Tian Ming entered the challenge as
well. Back then, he lost to the second daughter of the Sky
Shadow Dragon Queen in the final fight, so he ended up in
second place. He could have entered the Tower of Dragon’s
Dawn for 5,000 years at that time, but he refused. Do you know
why?"
So that guy had placed second 9,000 years ago.

"You can only go to Tower of Dragon’s Dawn once. He wants

to go for 10,000 years." Wu Yu immediately understood.
"That’s right. Therefore, his goal this time is nothing but first
place. If he doesn’t get it, he will probably wait for another
9,000 years. Of course, he is undisputedly on top. If he reaches
the top four with the Dragon Emperor Immortal Design and
enters the finals, then his first place spot is secured."
"I understand." Wu Yu nodded.
Wu Jun was telling him this so that he would be careful of him,
so he would be safe from this danger. He was not telling Wu
Yu to snatch first place from him. Although Wu Yu was a 9-
Yuan heavenly immortal, he was still far from reaching the
Immortal Lord Realm, and there was little chance anyway.
The power of immortal dao marks was incredible. Wu Yu was
currently using his buddha energy and immortal energy
combined, and could fight a 6-Xuan immortal at most. This was
already very decent.
Wu Yu looked at Wu Hao, who looked a little downcast. No
matter what, he had been severely affected this time, which was
why both Ye Qianning and Luo Pin were consoling him.
His dignity had been wounded.
Finally, they arrived at the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield. There were mystical dragons everywhere, and the
huge mirror under their feet seemed to stretch on forever. Wu
Jun greeted other familiar faces as he led his group to the
Primordial Immortal Empire’s area. The great mystical dragons
had all arrived, and from this viewpoint, they could see the huge
mirror beneath, and also many mystical dragons above when
they looked up.
The Hundred Empire Dragon Kings led their respective
contingents to their seats.
Wu Yu and the others were seated opposite the prime spot,
where the Sky Will Empire’s mystical dragons were!
On the left was the Sky Shadow Empire, while on the right was
the Sky Chariot Empire. And then fourth place was on the left,
and fifth place on the right. Sixth on the left, seventh on the
right, all the way until 87th, which was where the Primordial
Immortal Empire was. Therefore, they were more or less across
from the Sky Chariot Dragon King. Although they were a good
distance away, and there was a lot of immortal fog obscuring
them, Wu Yu could still see the Sky Chariot Empire’s mystical
dragons laughing and chatting relaxedly.
In comparison, the Primordial Immortal Empire’s side was
especially grim. Especially after the Jade Mirror Dragon
Queen’s outburst, no one wished to say more. Interest in the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory had more or less evaporated.
After all, the state of Ye Xuanyi and the others was all too clear
- they were unlikely to put on a good show.
"Besides the Sky Will Dragon King, there are two other revered
dragons from the Revered Dragon Council who have come to
spectate. They are mainly here to ensure the fairness of the
competition, and they will be lurking in the shadows, unseen.
However, they are here. These two revered dragons are beings
that surpass the dragon kings." Wu Jun explained what he could
to Wu Yu when it came to mind.
Wu Yu knew that besides the Nine Great Dragon Emperors, the
strongest in the mystical dragon tribe formed the Revered
Dragon Council, which was positioned higher than the
Hundred Empire Dragon Kings.
Wu Yu looked out. He had no idea where these two revered
dragons were. But with them watching over things, no one
would dare to do anything reckless. This was also why the Sky
Chariot Dragon King could not do as he pleased.
In the mystical dragon tribe, even a dragon emperor’s son
would face the judgment of the Revered Dragon Council if they
broke the rules! All of the Revered Dragon Council members
were elder mystical dragons who were very qualified.
Noon came, and everyone had arrived.
Far away, opposite them, Wu Yu saw the First Hundred Empire
Dragon King, the Sky Will Dragon King. He looked much
more formidable than his siblings.
In a booming voice, he declared, "Today is an important day
for our Sky Heart Tribe.
"Our Sky Heart Tribe brothers and sisters have come together
to witness the rise of our new generation.
"The valuable treasures have already been announced.
Children, fight for glory and riches.
"I will not waste more words. All the mystical dragons whose
names are called, step forth.
"Firstly, from the Sky Will Empire...."
The Sky Will Dragon King read out a name list.
First was the Sky Will Empire, where young talents, both male
and female, started to gather at the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield below.
They were beautiful to look at, and filled with the power of
youth.
Each of them looked like they had been through intense battles,
like Ye Xuanyi and the others, and had been selected to come
here.
Just the Sky Will Empire alone had many mystical dragons.
Next was the Sky Shadow Empire.
While the names were being called, and the mystical dragons
were entering the battlefield, Wu Yu was busy observing the
Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield.
Firstly, he noted that there seemed to be a huge eye on the white
mirror.
He asked Ye Qianning about it.
Ye Qianning said, "That’s the Eye of the Dragon Emperor.
When the trial starts, the Eye of the Dragon Emperor can scan
the entire Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, and will often zoom in
on key fights so that we spectators can see it. But don’t worry.
The Eye of the Dragon Emperor is a destinable immortal
treasure. It will pretty much only be trained on the elite mystical
dragons. Stay low-profile inside and it will not turn to you."
The eye was indeed huge. When the time came, it would
probably be able to show what it saw to the entire Dragon
Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield.
This made Wu Yu realize that his actions in the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory might be seen. Therefore, he needed to be
careful.
"What about that pillar?" Wu Yu saw that there was a huge
pillar at the edge of the field. It rose up to the clouds and seemed
to be an unremarkable part of the architecture.
"That’s the Giant Purgatory Pillar. Once you go in, it will
activate. At that time, all 600-odd competitors’ Dragon
Emperor Immortal Designs will be listed on it, and the highest
name will, of course, be in first place. The ranking of your
Dragon Emperor Immortal Design will continue to change and
everything will be clear. This is also why many of the
competitors are worried that their rankings will embarrass
them. Of course, everyone wants to place better. It is a great
honor."
Wu Yu was startled. To think that one’s own Dragon Emperor
Immortal Design would determine the ranking. When it started,
rankings would definitely change dramatically.
"And if I don’t participate, does that mean my ranking will sink
to the bottom? How embarrassing will that be?" Wu Yu himself
did not mind, but he was afraid that Wu Jun and the others
would be laughed at.
"Settle your own business first. If you can do that, you can just
participate as a gesture. Don’t be last, that’s all," Wu Hao said.
Of course, he hoped that Wu Yu could help win him some
pride. After all, the Sky Chariot Dragon King had been so
overbearing. But he could not help but understand how
impossible it was. Therefore, he did not wish to give Wu Yu
any pressure.
"Understood."
The Giant Purgatory Pillar was like a leaderboard.
When the Sky Will Dragon King called out their names, many
promising male and female mystical dragons took to the field,
landing on the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield. They
formed their own group, full of the passion of youth. Many
watched such events as if they were cockfighting, and they
were already raring for the fighting to begin.
"Primordial Immortal Empire!"
He reached the 87th ranked Primordial Immortal Empire,
which was an unremarkable empire. Many people had heard
that the Sky Chariot Dragon King and the Primordial Immortal
Empire’s Baiyin Dragon King had an intense argument before
entering the venue, reportedly over old history. As for what had
happened between Wu Hao, Ye Qianning, and the Sky Chariot
Dragon King, many of the mystical dragons present today
knew. Therefore, many turned to the Primordial Immortal
Empire and then to the Sky Chariot Empire, anticipating a good
show.
Of course, they knew that the Primordial Immortal Empire
would not have a good time.
If not for Wu Jun being strong, perhaps even his position of
Hundred Empire Dragon King would be taken away.
"Ye Xuanyi."
Being called out, Ye Xuanyi froze and stood stiffly. With
numerous dragon kings and dragon lords looking at him, the
pressure was incredible.
"Xing Ling."
"Yu Manyuan."
All three looked slightly pale, especially when the mocking
hoots of the mystical dragons below floated up to them.
"Let’s go down together." Ye Xuanyi took a few deep breaths
and looked at those beside him. The three headed down amidst
the crowd’s scrutinizing gazes. However, the three of them only
dared to stand timidly at the periphery, afraid of going to the
center, where the contenders from the Three Great Empires
were.
The Sky Heart Tribe was used to calling the Sky Will Empire,
the Sky Shadow Empire, and the Sky Chariot Empire the Three
Great Empires. They were all the children of the Sky Heart
Dragon Emperor, and were ranked first, second, and third.
"The Primordial Immortal Empire has only sent these three
kids. No wonder the dragon kings have said that the Primordial
Immortal Empire can’t make it. Within the Hundred Empires,
it probably ranks last." Ye Xuanyi could hear many such
slights, but he was too weak to dare to say anything about it.
In the Primordial Immortal Empire, he could put on airs, but
here, everyone was stronger than him.
"Wu Yu."
The Sky Will Dragon King paused a little before calling out
this name. Perhaps he had never heard of this name before.
"Go on," Wu Jun said.
Wu Yu nodded. A human quickly landed amidst the crowd of
mystical dragons. This was extremely unusual for the Sky
Heart Tribe.
"Who is that? A human?"
"The Primordial Immortal Empire allowed a human to join the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory?"
"What kind of joke is this...."
Although Wu Yu had tried to be as inconspicuous as possible,
he had still gotten all of their attention. Because of Wu Yu’s
appearance, even Ye Xuanyi and the others had the pressure on
them lessened.
Against the many incredulous glares from dragon kings and
dragon lords, Wu Yu was calm. He quickly moved to stand on
the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield without saying a
word. He ignored the pressuring glares.
The atmosphere here had started to heat up.
"Big Brother, what kind of joke is this? A human participating
in our Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory? Has this ever happened
before? Wu Jun, your brain must be rotten. Or is it that the
Primordial Immortal Empire has no one else who can join?
You’re actually sending a human?"
As for Wu Jun’s decision, the other Hundred Empire Dragon
Kings were not in a position to speak, but it was Sky Chariot
Dragon King who had boorishly shot his mouth off. Actually,
Wu Jun had thought that the past was buried. The Sky Chariot
Dragon King had also wedded and raised children, so he should
have forgotten about Ye Qianning and Wu Hao. To think that
he would actually call out the Primordial Immortal Empire even
before entering the venue.
Wu Jun said, "This person is my disciple. He is willing to serve
the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm. He is already a citizen of
the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm. And also a member of
the Primordial Immortal Empire. I have given him the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Decree. By the rules, anyone from the
Primordial Immortal Empire who is below one yuan in age and
is selected by me can participate. The Sky Will Dragon King
has also allowed this. There is no need for the Sky Chariot
Dragon King to be concerned."
Although there had been no precedent, that did not mean that it
was forbidden. After all, the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm
had many immortals who served it. Most commonly, they were
the dao companions of mystical dragons.
However, those that became dao companions often exceeded
one yuan in age. Therefore, it was not possible for them to
participate in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. That was why
there had been no precedent.
Wu Jun had just finished speaking when another Hundred
Empire Dragon King spoke. His voice came from not far to the
side of the Primordial Immortal Empire. It was the Deep
Dreams Empire, whose dragon king was a female. She was a
Deep Dreams Heart Dragon, and the Deep Dreams Empire was
just beside the Primordial Immortal Empire.
The clear and pure voice of the Deep Dreams Empire Dragon
Queen cut across. "What disciple? Speak the truth, Primordial
Immortal Empire Dragon King. I hear that your younger
brother, the Baiyin Dragon King, has recently adopted a newly
ascended Primordial Immortal Dragon. This is news worthy of
celebration indeed. After all, it is a miracle that the mortal
domain can produce an ultimate mystical dragon. But hear me
out, this adopted daughter, Luo Pin, already had a dao
companion in the mortal domain. The two ascended together,
and the dao companion even came to the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm. That must be this contender, Wu Yu."
News of Wu Yu had long spread to the neighboring empires,
and it was expected that the Deep Dreams Empire Dragon
Queen had heard of it. She was one of the few Hundred Empire
Dragon Kings who was on bad terms with the Primordial
Immortal Empire’s dragon king. But ordinarily, she would not
accuse Wu Jun at such a time with the truth.
Ye Qianning was furious. "That bitch, she must have seen that
the Sky Chariot Dragon King set himself against us, and is
trying to curry favor with him!"
Of course, everyone understood the Deep Dreams Empire
Dragon Queen’s intent.
News of Wu Yu and Luo Pin were already well known. At this
time, virtually everyone was looking at the two. Even Luo Pin
was feeling the crushing stress, and Ye Qianning shielded her.
"Bad form! Scandalous!"
"Ultimate mystical dragon? Just ascended? A mortal domain
dao companion? An immortal? Those that just ascended can
only be considered infant dragons. Can an infant ultimate
mystical dragon also have an immortal dao companion?"
"Sly! Foolish! Despicable! A disgrace to the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm!"
"Who allowed this Wu Yu to enter the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm? And let him join the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory? Is Wu Jun wrong in the head? Something rotten in
his skull?"
Whether dragon king or dragon lord, all of them felt that this
was unacceptable, and continued to call out their displeasure.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King roared with laughter.
"Primordial Immortal Empire, you have really opened my eyes.
Two Primordial Immortal Dragons got together, but they could
not birth a child. A complete waste of talent! Now a stroke of
good luck has brought you an adopted daughter. But at a young
age, she already has an immortal dao companion. And also a
dragon who is doomed! It seems like the Primordial Immortal
Dragons are doomed to extinction. And they are ultimate
mystical dragons as well. A pity! If they had joined with a
Primordial Divine Dragon like myself, they might have been
able to give birth to Ancient Sky Heart Dragons! We have so
many talented and handsome youngsters here amongst the
Primordial Divine Dragons. Tell me, everyone, don’t you think
that the Wu Jun and Wu Hao brothers are brainsick?! Haha!"
These words from the Sky Chariot Dragon King, of course,
raised laughter from many dragon kings. Suddenly, it seemed
like even all the competitors on the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield were laughing, looking disparagingly at Wu Yu.
Wu Hao’s face was green.
All of this was incited by the Sky Chariot Dragon King. He
wished he could kill him.
But he also knew that this was impossible.
Because the Sky Heart Tribe was ruled by the three siblings.
The laughter made one’s stomach hurt from the anger.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King had vented all of his anger on
Wu Jun. Of course, he still hated him, but he felt extremely
good right now.
Among the other Hundred Empire Dragon Kings, there were
just a handful who were on good terms with Wu Jun. The ones
who were neutral would, of course, stand with the Sky Heart
Dragon Emperor’s son!
Right now, Ye Xuanyi and the others were all regretting that
they were representing the Primordial Immortal Empire. The
bystanders started to laugh at them, pushing and shoving them.
They could only hang their heads in shame.
"The dignity of the Primordial Immortal Empire has truly been
thrown to the dogs. It must have something to do with the
owner of the house. Why not check yourself? This is too
unseemly," the Sky Chariot Dragon King derided.
Another bout of roaring laughter.
Everyone felt that the Sky Chariot Dragon King was being a
terrible person, but they liked it. After all, they too felt that it
was ludicrous for an ultimate mystical dragon to be with an
outsider.
Wu Yu had originally been rather calm.
But at this time, a nasty anger was building within him. This
was too much. If others do not cross me, I do not cross them. If
others cross me, I will pay it back threefold!
Seeing Wu Hao muddled by anger, even the good-natured Ye
Qianning was flushed with fury now. Only Wu Jun was still in
control of himself. But as a Hundred Empire Dragon King,
these jeers were incredibly humiliating, so much so that he
would not be able to lift his head in the future.
Even a bunch of little dragons could mock him.
Wu Yu had not intended to show off during the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory, but now he could not bear the fiery anger
that was building within him. Luo Pin was probably very
dismayed and pained right now. These people had upset her!
For Wu Yu, that was unforgivable.
Each laugh was like a dagger that pierced his heart. He could
not explode now, but he had to, sooner or later.
"Enough. Stop laughing. It was I who allowed Wu Yu to join."
As the laughter began to subside, the Sky Will Dragon King
admonished them. He held the greatest authority, so the
mystical dragons immediately quelled their laughter. However,
snickers could still be heard.
"Big Brother, why?" the Sky Chariot Dragon King laughingly
asked.
"Nothing much. It’s according to the rules. As long as a disciple
of the Primordial Immortal Empire’s dragon king has an
Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree, he can indeed join," the Sky
Will Dragon King stated neutrally.
The Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree indeed was the mystical
dragon tribe’s acknowledgment of an immortal. With an
Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree, one was considered part of
the mystical dragon tribe, and would serve them. The Sky Will
Dragon King had completely abided by that ruling.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King was still displeased.
"Let him join. What’s the problem? Will he steal your son’s
first place?" The Sky Shadow Dragon Queen rolled her eyes.
"You’re right, the one being shamed won’t be me. Haha...." The
Sky Chariot Dragon King agreed.
However, at this time Wu Jun declared in a clear voice, "The
Sky Chariot Dragon King speaks true. Wu Yu and Pin Er were
destined to be in the mortal domain. That was their fate. The
fact that the two could reach immortalhood together is a dream
as well. Now that Pin Er is here at the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm, she indeed has to follow our rules. If they are
not of age, I will not hold the nuptials for them. But I support
them. Everyone might feel that Wu Yu is not a fitting match for
an ultimate mystical dragon, or at least less suitable than a
Primordial Divine Dragon. On this point, feel free to think what
you will. Time will provide the answer. At that time, perhaps
you will all feel embarrassed of your mocking today."
He spoke very objectively, and with a counter as well.
That’s right. Time would provide the answer.
This was actually the highest review he could give Wu Yu.
Before speaking, of course no one thought that Wu Yu was
incompetent. From the start, this youth’s face had not changed.
Even when the laughter had boomed out, it had not ruffled him,
and he had not trembled like Ye Xuanyi or the others. This in
itself was rare.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King’s eyes widened. "You mean to
say that this Wu Yu is very talented? A mortal domain
immortal? Are you trying to make me die of laughter?"
He stared at Wu Yu.
Everyone did as well. All the pressure was on Wu Yu.
"Oh!" The Sky Chariot Dragon King broke down in laughter.
"He’s only a heavenly immortal! Congratulations to you, Wu
Jun. You broke the bottom line of the nine great tribes. Never
in history has a heavenly immortal competed. I can see it
already. You sly old fox, you’re trying to kill this young human
through such a tactic!"
Laughter again rolled out like a wave. In their eyes, Wu Yu was
the most pitiful worm ever. They would make fun of him every
way they could.
"Enough. We’re wasting time." The Sky Will Dragon King was
slightly irritated now. Being glared at, the Sky Chariot Dragon
King finally shut up. Others could feel that the atmosphere had
gotten serious, so they did not dare to laugh either.
Although, they were still laughing in their hearts. They
wondered how the mighty Primordial Immortal Empire’s
dragon king would become such a joke.
The Sky Will Dragon King continued to read other names, and
no one dared to interrupt him. However, many were still
looking at Wu Yu. They imagined how frightened he was, but
instead saw his indifferent face, as though he was unconcerned.
"You’re Wu Yu?" Someone called him from behind. Turning
back, he saw that it was someone from the Sky Chariot Empire.
The Sky Will Empire and the Sky Shadow Empire were also
behind that person. They headed over, and others got out of
their way.
The one who spoke was the Primordial Divine Dragon who was
behind the Sky Chariot Dragon King - his son. The Tian Ming
Dragon Lord.
It was said that he had lost in the last Purgatory’s finals and
gotten second place. But he had forfeited his chance to go to
Tower of Dragon’s Dawn. He was the only Immortal Lord
Realm cultivator to take part this time.
How far could the apple of the Sky Chariot Dragon King’s eye
fall from the tree that was the father?
"Are you here to teach me?" Wu Yu said.
An indifferent snicker. He was quite a handsome one. He
looked towards the Primordial Immortal Empire’s direction
and said, "My grandfather says that the union between a
Primordial Divine Dragon and a Primordial Immortal Dragon
has a chance to produce an Ancient Sky Heart Dragon. That is
the best bloodline in the mystical dragon tribe. For many years,
I have waited for a Primordial Immortal Dragon to appear, and
now one has. Although she is still young, I will wait for her to
grow up, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord said.
Wu Yu laughed. So he was trying to snatch the girl. He said,
"I’m afraid that when she grows up, you might not be alive."
The dragons nearby were stunned. Wu Yu had actually
threatened the Tian Ming Dragon Lord! How could a mere
heavenly immortal dare to trigger such a clash? Wu Yu’s words
made the soles of their feet cold!
On the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield, no one would
dare to speak to the Tian Ming Dragon Lord like that!
Let alone a heavenly immortal!
Even the Tian Ming Dragon Lord himself was shocked. If not
for the fact that they could not kill people here, he would strike
Wu Yu down. But he controlled himself. With a dry laugh, he
said, "So you are the same as Wu Jun. A fool. Listen up,
everyone, whoever meets this fool in the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory, notify me, and I will reward you with a Genesis
Mystical Pill, to help you reach the Immortal Lord Realm. If
you can bring him to me, I’ll add an additional destinable
immortal talisman."
"Sweet!"
The mystical dragons cheered. They all looked at Wu Yu with
burning eyes. To them, he was already a Genesis Mystical Pill
and destinable immortal talisman. He was no longer human.
"At that time, I will allow you to enjoy the hospitality of the
mystical dragon tribe." The Tian Ming Dragon Lord smiled at
Wu Yu.
"Oh, then you had better bring out the fortunes. Just one
Genesis Mystical Pill alone isn’t even worth a hair of my head."
Wu Yu stood toe to toe against him. He continued to smile,
although the Tian Ming Dragon Lord wanted to see his terror.
Wu Yu was not at all afraid.
He was the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast, and he would not
face the Sky Chariot Dragon King with any fear.
Even if he were just a tiger cub, the Sky Chariot Dragon King
was an elephant. He was not afraid. He was a carnivore, and the
Sky Chariot Dragon King was just a herbivore.
The entire Heavenly Domain was a land of herbivores to Wu
Yu.
They absorbed immortal qi. Wasn’t that like eating grass? Wu
Yu fed on them all.

"Keke." The Tian Ming Dragon Lord was seething inside

because he had not managed to intimidate Wu Yu. And to think
that a paltry little heavenly immortal would dare to stand up
against him before so many.
A blow to his pride.
But he could endure it. Because he knew that the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory would be his playground.
And at this time, the Sky Will Dragon King finally finished
reading names. All 600-odd competitors had arrived on the
Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield.
"Wu Yu, you’ve doomed us all!" Yu Manyuan was still
babbling.
"Once we’re in, we’ll have to use the Escape Immortal Designs
immediately." Xing Ling sighed.
"It’s so meaningless to be a Primordial Immortal Empire
dragon. When my mother leaves, I’ll leave too," Yu Manyuan
said.
Wu Yu ignored them.
Wu Jun had said that time would provide the answers.
He believed this too.
Because time had given him the answer with Heavenly
Immortal Hao Tian.
Time had also given the answer to the Ancient Emperor.
Next, the Sky Will Dragon King personally inserted Dragon
Emperor Immortal Designs and Escape Immortal Designs into
the bodies of every competitor.
The Escape Immortal Design could be placed anywhere on the
body, and could only be used once.
As for the Dragon Emperor Immortal Design, it was placed on
the dragon’s horn.
The Sky Will Dragon King moved very quickly, flitting past all
600-odd competitors, and placing all the immortal designs. At
the start, everyone’s Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs were
the same size.
There were two hidden revered dragons watching everything.
It was rumored that they were the Empyrean Revered Dragon
and the Fire Mark Revered Dragon. One was from the Sky
Heart Tribe, the other from the Burning Life Tribe.
Soon, it was Wu Yu’s turn.
The Sky Will Dragon King appeared before him, and this
Primordial Divine Dragon was quite the unsettling presence.
But his eyes showed a lot more depth compared to the other
two Primordial Divine Dragons.
"Your hand," he said.
Wu Yu stretched out his arm.
With a whoosh, a white immortal design that could not be
removed appeared on Wu Yu’s arm.
This was the Dragon Emperor Immortal Design.
The Escape Immortal Design was placed on his back. In times
of danger, he could use it to return to the Dragon Emperor’s
Supreme Battlefield.
After it was done, it was time to enter the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory.
Wu Yu was going to find that voice.
"Wait for my return." Wu Yu looked to the high platform where
Luo Pin was.
"Go calmly. I’ll wait for you." Luo Pin’s voice always brought
Wu Yu strength.
She had seen enough of the world before. The humiliation
today would not shake her faith.
She simply felt bad that Wu Hao and the others had been
bullied thus.
"Are you worried for him?" Ye Qianning asked.
"Not really. He’s been through far more. He’s always won."
Luo Pin smiled.
"So young, it can’t be easy." She rolled her eyes at Wu Hao.
"Learn from the kids. They can hold their temper."
Wu Hao acknowledged this.
The Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory began, and they watched on.
A huge yellow vortex appeared in the mirror at the Dragon
Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield, and all of the competitors sank
in.
As all of the fighters sank in, the lens returned back to normal,
then the Eye of the Dragon Emperor began to move.
Suddenly, reality was reflected on the mirror, and everyone
could see the yellow fog of the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
Within the fog, one mystical dragon descended, then stabilized
himself. It was the Tian Ming Dragon Lord, whom the Eye of
the Dragon Emperor immediately focused on.
On the mirror, through this "holographic" projection, one could
basically see everything that was happening around him.
And then the Giant Purgatory Pillar lit up. Names began to
appear from top to bottom.
At this time, before the Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs
changed, everyone was ranked according to their cultivation
levels and estimated strength.
One could see that Tian Ming was at the top.
And then second from the bottom was Primordial Immortal
Empire’s Yu Manyuan. Even though he wasn’t the bottom, Yu
Manyuan knew that he was the weakest.
In last place was, without question, the only heavenly immortal,
Wu Yu.
From the Immortal Lord Realm to a 9-Yuan heavenly
immortal. This was the greatest disparity in the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory ever.
And this ranking also made the crowd laugh. Every person’s
name was preceded by the empire that they came from.
For example, the first few dozen were a long line of Sky Will
Empire, Sky Shadow Empire, and Sky Chariot Empire.
For example, for the Sky Chariot Empire, Tian Ming was first.
And at the end, there were two consecutive Primordial
Immortal Empire names. A few dozen places up, another
Primordial Immortal Empire name, Xing Ling.
A total of four, and three were in the bottom places. The
Primordial Immortal Empire had indeed stuck out. Only Ye
Xuanyi was a 5-Xuan immortal, with enough people below him
that he did not stick out.
He was the Primordial Immortal Empire’s only hope.
As for the Giant Purgatory Pillar outside, Wu Yu did not care
about it. He was unaffected by external factors. After entering,
his only concern was to search for that being who had spoken
to him.
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory!
They were separated after entering. Wu Yu was currently alone,
and there was no mystical dragon nearby.
The entire Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory was shrouded in a
murky, yellow fog, which had a putrid smell to it. The immortal
qi here was quite faint as well, and it was a disgusting place.
In this murky, yellow fog, it was hard to see very far, and there
seemed to be dust in the air as well.
He landed on the ground and saw that there were barren
mountains everywhere. There were also dark canyons, so deep
that one could not see the bottom. There were lakes with black
water, and foul-smelling oceans filled with corpses. The stench
was unbearable.
It was a land of death. Truly a purgatory.
However, it was seemingly boundless.
Wu Yu used the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth to
shrink himself to the size of a thumb. He moved very quickly,
and was too small compared to the massive mystical dragons.
He was difficult to spot now.
He could also move easier like this.
He looked around him and said softly, "Senior, I am the Great
Sage, Heaven’s Equal’s heir, whom you mentioned. I am now
in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. Where are you? Where do
I go to find you? Can you give me some sign?"
He waited in silence for a reply.
If that person was urgently waiting for him, there should be an
answer. Wu Yu was nervous about such a being.
"Senior?"
Regretfully, there was no answer for a long time.
This made Wu Yu a little perplexed. Why call him here and
then not appear? Was he supposed to go look?
"I’m already here. What should I do next?" Wu Yu continued
to speak to his surroundings. Since he did not know where the
person was, he directed all of his comments to the air.
But after trying hundreds of times, later even moving around
while he spoke, he still got no response.
What he instead heard was the sound of mystical dragons
fighting the death row criminals.
"The criminals of the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory are all
trapped in the Dragon Emperor’s Prison. The Dragon
Emperor’s Prison is hidden. First, it has to be found. There, you
can see the criminals’ life history, cultivation level, and fighting
power. You can then estimate the strength of your opponent’s
Purgatory Immortal Design. If you feel like you can handle it,
you can use the Dragon Emperor Immortal Design to open the
jail and fight the criminal."
"If you kill the criminal, you can obtain their Purgatory
Immortal Design, which will strengthen your Dragon Emperor
Immortal Design.
"If you are defeated by the criminal, then their Purgatory
Immortal Design will grow stronger. They can also escape from
the Dragon Emperor’s Prison and hunt other contenders. They
do not know what extent their Purgatory Immortal Design has
to grow to, and so in order to leave this place, they will spend
the year continuously searching out competitors to fight."
Many of the mystical dragons were probably looking for the
Dragon Emperor’s Prison now. It was indeed well-hidden, and
very difficult to find. But Wu Yu was currently looking for the
voice, and so he did not pay much attention.
Otherwise, his 100,000 doppelgangers would definitely be
much more effective at searching compared to others.
The Unshackled Doppelganger was a terrifying Heaven Dao
Mystique. Each doppelganger was like an extension of Wu Yu.
They could move freely, and it was like he had 100,000 pairs
of eyes searching high and low.
Of course, he currently did not care about the Dragon
Emperor’s Prison. Therefore, he did not send out his clones. It
would call too much attention to him.
One day passed.
Wu Yu knew that just waiting for the person to reply was
hopeless.
"I probably have to go search."
Therefore, he started on his journey. After all, he had a year’s
time, so he was not very worried. He did not reveal any of his
trump cards either, just wandering around.
The Eyes of Fire and Gold scanned everywhere around him.
Every place that he passed was swept over.
On the second day, Wu Yu found a Dragon Emperor’s Prison
in a deep cave.
Inside was a woman. She was a 7-Yuan ghostly immortal. The
description said that she had killed mystical dragon children.
To the mystical dragon tribe, killing a child was a heinous
offense, and this person had killed many of them. She had used
their infant dragon corpses to cultivate some immortality art.
Truly a great sin. The mystical dragon tribe were also
concerned about ethics. They would not put criminals that were
not destined for death row here in the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory.
After all, this trial was also judgment for the criminals,
although it offered them a chance at life.
Wu Yu did not touch her. He was not at all concerned about the
Dragon Emperor Immortal Design. He was fully occupied
otherwise - why had the person waiting for him in Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory not appeared yet?

He continued to search.
Occasionally, he would stumble across a Dragon Emperor’s
Prison, but he could not be bothered to go in.
Although the other mystical dragons were searching frantically
for prisons. There were still many Longevity Immortal Realm
beings here that they could handle.
There were also many people looking for Wu Yu, all for that
Genesis Mystical Pill. But finding Wu Yu was more difficult
than finding Dragon Emperor’s Prisons. Even if Wu Yu flew
by right under their nose, they might not be able to see him.
Once, Wu Yu even saw the Tian Ming Dragon Lord. He
seemed to be fighting a very strong mystical dragon. Wu Yu
did not look closely, he just left immediately.
He was a little frustrated.
"Where could he be?"
After 10 days, he had searched many places, and even
encountered a few Dragon Emperor’s Prisons. But still there
was no news.
After 20 days, Wu Yu had even met quite a few mystical dragon
competitors. He had searched everywhere, and found nothing
special.
He continued to search, and day after day passed. His patience
began to wane, as he felt like he was being toyed with.
That person who knew that he was the Great Sage, Heaven’s
Equal’s heir. Where were they?
"Since I’ve come, I can’t give up. Press on...."
He moved with more urgency, and his Eyes of Fire and Gold
were also used more forcefully to scan deeper. After all, he still
had time.
A month passed.
He was thinking while sitting on a boulder.
"I was asked to come in, but they did not reveal themselves to
me. What’s the meaning of this? Could it be that they are
trapped somewhere, and could only speak to me once? Do I
have to find them?
"Could they be a criminal in the Dragon Emperor’s Prisons?
"But this is the first tier of the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. It
will only hold those below the Immortal Lord Realm. How
could someone below the Immortal Lord Realm know that I am
the inheritor of the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal’s legacy? And
how could they send their voice out from the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory?"
Wu Yu could not understand it.
However, he did not despair. He resolved to continue
searching. After all, there was still time.
As he stood up, he suddenly felt killing intent. He had been
discovered.
After dodging the attack, he turned to see a middle-aged ghostly
cultivator staring blankly at him. He mumbled, "A heavenly
immortal can actually dodge my assassination?"
This ghostly cultivator was covered in blood. Evidently, he had
been through many savage battles and had escaped. He had
hidden, and probably was aiming to strengthen his own
Purgatory Immortal Design with Wu Yu.
This was a 3-Xuan ghostly immortal, with three immortal dao
marks. He was fairly strong, although slightly injured.
But he did not back down. With an ancient immortal treasure
in his hand, he charged.
"Go to hell! Mystical dragon tribe!"
He still thought that Wu Yu was a mystical dragon, but in
human form.
Coincidentally, Wu Yu was just feeling curious about how the
Dragon Emperor Immortal Design was strengthened. Since this
guy had delivered himself, Wu Yu would not hold back.
In just 10 breaths of time, Wu Yu had devoured him.
He had integrated his Purgatory Immortal Design into Wu Yu’s
own Dragon Emperor Immortal Design. As expected, the
Dragon Emperor Immortal Design became more complex.
"Others are also working hard to strengthen their immortal
designs," Wu Yu thought.
Suddenly, two mystical dragons appeared in front, and they saw
that Wu Yu’s Dragon Emperor Immortal Design had grown
stronger.
"You! You stole our prey?" The two mystical dragons’ eyes
widened in anger as they glared at Wu Yu.
These two mystical dragons were green and purple, male and
female. They had suddenly appeared before Wu Yu.
They had clearly been chasing that ghostly cultivator.
The purple mystical dragon did not have a huge body, but had
a huge pair of indigo wings. The feathers on the wings were all
shaped like sharp shortswords, lined up neatly to form a huge
and deadly set of wings.
Wu Yu recalled that this was a Deep Indigo Sword Feather
Dragon.
The other was a green mystical dragon that was clearly male.
He had a larger body and his green scales were dazzling. Most
prominent was the single long horn on his head, that was like a
spear. It jutted out, and looked so sharp that one could almost
hurt oneself just by looking at it. It also radiated an eerie, green
light.
This was the Deep Green Heartpiercer Dragon.
These two mystical dragons moved and fought together.
Evidently, they were on good terms. And Wu Yu could see that
the Dragon Emperor Immortal Design on the Deep Indigo
Sword Feather Dragon’s horn had already grown much
stronger. While the Deep Green Heartpiercer Dragon’s horn
was much larger than Wu Yu’s, it was still nothing compared
to the Deep Indigo Sword Feather Dragon’s.
Wu Yu understood their strategy. The Deep Green Heartpiercer
Dragon, in order to woo a beauty, had made a sacrifice and
allowed the Deep Indigo Sword Feather Dragon to absorb most
of the gains. That way, the Deep Indigo Sword Feather
Dragon’s ranking would be much higher, thanks to his
contributions.
And the prey which had almost been in their hands had been
snatched away by Wu Yu. Of course, they were angry.
Especially since they saw that the one who had snatched it was
Wu Yu!
"It’s you!" the two mystical dragons exclaimed, and a gleam
entered their eyes.
Of course. Wu Yu was worth a Genesis Mystical Pill and a
destinable immortal talisman.
Wu Yu had an impression of them. When the Deep Dreams
Empire Dragon Queen spoke, they were by her side.
The Deep Dreams Empire Dragon Queen had spoken of Wu
Yu and Luo Pin, causing others to laugh. If she had not spoken,
the impact would not have been as great.
"Deep Dreams Empire?" Wu Yu ventured.
The Deep Green Heartpiercer Dragon laughed coldly, speaking
as he circled behind Wu Yu. "That’s right. Heard of us? Wu
Yu, you’ve snatched away what was ours. You have to pay a
price, right?"
In front, the Deep Indigo Sword Feather Dragon blew a teasing
kiss. "Be a good boy and don’t move. You’ll be hurt less, and
we can have an easier time as well. Trading you for a Genesis
Mystical Pill will be compensation for kill stealing."
"And if I don’t?" Since he had not found that person yet, Wu
Yu could turn his focus to revenge for now. He would play
along.
The Deep Green Heartpiercer Dragon smirked. "Then we will
have to show you no mercy and drag you over. The more unruly
you are, the more unpleasant it will be." The Deep Indigo
Sword Feather Dragon said, "Of course, this is all nothing
compared to the pain you will feel at the hands of the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord. After you lose the Primordial Immortal Dragon,
you will get chased out of the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm
and will have to watch that Luo Pin taken by the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord as his own. Now that will be true pain."
Wu Yu smiled. "I say. You’re a woman, why is your tongue so
vile?"
The Deep Indigo Sword Feather Dragon said, "I am just
speaking the truth. Well, just wait right there. Big Brother Deep
Green, don’t move. I’ll take him down alone. The fact that a
heavenly immortal like you can last so long here shows that
you’re a pretty lucky one. You must have hidden well."
"If not for the fact that our ghostly immortal was already beaten
half to death, you wouldn’t have been able to take him down
either."
They were both beings with five immortal dao marks, so it was
expected that they did not take Wu Yu seriously. At this time,
the Deep Indigo Sword Feather Dragon was not paying full
attention either. She talked to the Deep Green Heartpiercer
Dragon while chasing Wu Yu.
"Lifeless Blood Lightning."
She was caught off-guard by how swift and savage Wu Yu’s
own move was. He hurled out scarlet lightning that formed a
huge sphere. It caught the Deep Indigo Sword Feather Dragon
within, then the lightning exploded. The scarlet lightning
streaked like spines towards the Deep Indigo Sword Feather
Dragon’s body!
"Ahh!" The terrifying power of the lightning caused the Deep
Indigo Sword Feather Dragon to seize up in pain. She looked
at Wu Yu fearfully. She wished to fight back, but the
destructive pain had wormed its way into her bones. Under such
an overpowering mystique’s effect, she could only yelp and use
her Escape Immortal Design.
Otherwise, she would die!
Whoosh!
The Deep Indigo Sword Feather Dragon had been helpless
against Wu Yu’s attacks. Even when using the Escape
Immortal Design, she had not imagined how desperate her
situation would become.
While all of this happened, the Deep Green Heartpiercer
Dragon was still standing there, slack-jawed.
"It’s your turn now. Go back and tell your Deep Dreams Empire
Dragon Queen that it was Wu Yu who sent you out. Tell her to
shut her mouth and not to gossip next time."
Wu Yu turned to the Deep Green Heartpiercer Dragon with a
hard look.
"Go to hell!" The Deep Green Heartpiercer Dragon flew into a
rage. He had yet to understand the circumstances, but it did not
matter.
Wu Yu again used a mystique. This was the Quintessential Tree
Demon’s Incandescent Mirror, which shimmered to existence
before Wu Yu. The blinding light completely swallowed the
Deep Green Heartpiercer Dragon!
"Argh, argh!"
The Deep Green Heartpiercer Dragon wrenched and convulsed
in the light, screaming. The green scales on his body were
ripped off, and his flesh was exposed.
He was quite a strong-willed one, but against such crushing
force, he could only scream helplessly.
"You! How are you so strong!?" the Deep Green Heartpiercer
Dragon howled.
All that answered him was Wu Yu’s cold and resolved gaze.
"Escape Immortal Design!" Before he died, he decided to
activate his Escape Immortal Design. Otherwise, he would
have been crushed easily to death by Wu Yu.
Given Wu Yu’s strength, dealing with them was just a simple
matter of using two mystiques. His Bodhi immortal energy and
Nine Aspects Vajra buddha energy were incredibly strong now.
Not even being channeled into a mystique, they were already
about as strong as a 5-Xuan immortal.
Even against such elite mystical dragons.
However, Wu Yu still had much room to improve.
He was alone again.
This was the first time that Wu Yu had shown the mystical
dragons his fighting power.
.............
Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield.
More than a month had passed, and the seated elite dragon lords
and dragon kings were chatting as they watched the rankings
change on the Giant Purgatory Pillar. Occasionally, they would
look at the fight scenes that the Eye of the Dragon Emperor
showed.
The Eye of the Dragon Emperor had especially focused on the
elite mystical dragons that were the hot favorites, such as the
Tian Ming Dragon Lord. He specifically targeted the elite
criminals, and each fight was epic. At the Immortal Lord
Realm, he did not have any match, and he had fairly brutal
methods. In just a month, his Dragon Emperor Immortal
Design had already grown considerably.
The way he crushed each battle made the other dragon lords cry
out in admiration. "No less than expected of the Sky Chariot
Dragon King’s son! No wonder he got runner-up in the last
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory!"
"This time, first place is definitely his! Last time, he already
took second place as a 9-Xuan immortal."
"There are a few other 9-Xuan immortals that are doing well
also. But they’re still a little lacking compared to the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord."
On the Giant Purgatory Pillar, the most resplendent name at the
top, which many mystical dragons were gratified to see, was:
Sky Chariot Empire, Tian Ming!

Further down along the list, there had been some intense
changes. Tian Ming had already rushed to first place by the
second day and then had continued to make his position more
and more unassailable. The gap between Tian Ming and the
others grew wider and wider.
He had left them all in his dust.
Of course, the top 10 now were basically within everyone’s
expectations. They were mostly 9-Xuan immortals, the stellar
youths from the Sky Heart tribe.
The entire rankings were as expected, and very reasonable.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King was completely at ease, and
talking to others without the slightest worry. Occasionally, he
would look at the bottom of the Giant Purgatory Pillar, and he
could not resist directing loud, obnoxious laughter towards the
Primordial Immortal Empire’s side.
That was because the bottom of the Giant Purgatory Pillar was
ranked like this.
Fourth from the bottom: Primordial Immortal Empire, Ye
Xuanyi!
Third from the bottom: Primordial Immortal Empire, Xing
Ling!
Second from the bottom: Primordial Immortal Empire, Yu
Manyuan!
Last place: Primordial Immortal Empire, Wu Yu!
They were all neatly lined up!
Just like the Sky Chariot Empire, the Sky Will Empire, and the
Sky Shadow Empire were lined up neatly at the top of the
rankings.
A difference like night and day.
As long as this ranking did not change, they would be the
laughing stock for the rest of the year. Especially since they
were often the brunt of unkind words.
"If this continues, I think the Primordial Immortal Empire
needn’t join next time. It’s too embarrassing."
"They’re even worse than the 100th ranked empire. Haha...."
"What has the Primordial Immortal Empire been doing all these
years? Is each generation worse than the last? What a
preposterous joke...."
"And they have the audacity to continue sitting here. If it were
me, I would already have left out of shame."
There were many who were looking to suck up to the Sky
Chariot Dragon King now. Besides Wu Jun’s friends, those that
were usually neutral had all joined the taunting.
Of course, they were also taunting Wu Hao and Ye Qianning.
In this month, Wu Jun had been silent, and Wu Hao had been
turning steadily greener. Ye Qianning was also frustrated. She
shook her head.
"No need to worry about Wu Yu. He is simply not interested in
the trial. This means that he is preoccupied with something
else." Luo Pin was still calm, because she understood Wu Yu.
She knew that he was last place because he was not interested.
Of course, no one else would believe this.
"How can Xuanyi’s strength make him fourth from the bottom?
It must be because of Wu Yu! Everyone is targeting the
Primordial Immortal Empire!" the Luminary Dragon King said.
The Interstellar Domain Dragon King said, "That must be the
case. Otherwise, Xing Ling would not be third from the bottom
either. If he does not even dare to appear in the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory, how can he attempt the challenge?"
The Jade Mirror Dragon Queen sighed. "I already felt that
letting Wu Yu participate would completely disgrace us!
Really...."
"Aren’t you leaving the Primordial Immortal Empire? Don’t
worry about the Primordial Immortal Empire’s face, then. It has
nothing to do with you!" Ye Qianning rolled her eyes at her.
Wu Jun, Wu Hao, and Ye Qianning, of course, knew the reason
why Wu Yu was inside.
But being laughed at by so many, and even implicating their
own people in this, was a very infuriating situation.
They turned inwards, and ignored what everyone else said.
Even Luo Pin was a little irritated.
"Whether immortals or mystical dragons, their fighting and
competitive spirit are even stronger ."
She realized this now.
For example, the Sky Chariot Dragon King, who had not been
able to win Ye Qianning. He had exhausted every possibility to
make the Wu Hao and Wu Jun brothers look bad.
The ingratiating mystical dragons were also sickening to watch.
Looking at the top and bottom of the rankings, it was indeed a
risible sight.
"Hey, hey! Someone used their Escape Immortal Design!"
"Who would be incompetent enough to be the first one out?
Don’t they know how to choose only the criminals they can
deal with?"
Actually, as long as one could choose the criminals correctly,
there was theoretically no need to use the Escape Immortal
Design.
Each Dragon Emperor’s Prison stated the strength of each
criminal very clearly, and one would have plenty of time to
deliberate and calculate.
Unless one was ousted by another competitor, that sort of thing
was less frequent at the start. It was more frequent towards the
end.
But it would also offend others, and therefore was not a very
common phenomenon.
Everyone was looking to see who the first mystical dragon
eliminated was!
In a flash of light, the Deep Indigo Sword Feather Dragon
appeared, sprawled on the floor. Blood lightning was crackling
on her wounds, and she was screaming and rolling on the floor.
Divested of Wu Yu’s control, the scarlet lightning vanished in
a flash, leaving a screaming mess that was the Deep Indigo
Sword Feather Dragon.
"It’s the Deep Dreams Empire’s Deep Indigo Sword Feather
Dragon!"
The mystical dragons recognized her.
The Deep Dreams Empire’s dragon queen immediately
recognized her. She was furious, her face as black as a storm
cloud. "Who forced you out? And with such cruel tactics? A
criminal, or a competitor?"
The Deep Indigo Sword Feather Dragon was wailing pitifully,
unable to even speak.
"Where is Deep Green?! Didn’t he protect you?" Another elder
from the Deep Dreams Empire raged. He was probably the
Deep Green Heartpiercer Dragon’s father.
Just as he finished speaking, another Escape Immortal Design
triggered! It was the Deep Green Heartpiercer Dragon, whose
scales had been burned off. He was seriously wounded, and
took ragged breaths after he appeared. He stared blankly at the
crowd. They were definitely the first ones out!
The Deep Dreams Empire was in shock, and their expressions
were sour. These were their greatest hopes, but they had been
eliminated so early. They must have offended some expert.
The Deep Dreams Empire’s dragon queen raged, "Stop
whining. A loss is a loss."
The Deep Green Heartpiercer Dragon gritted his teeth. He spat
angrily in the direction of the Primordial Immortal Empire,
"Deep Dreams Empire Dragon Queen, you must take revenge
for us. It was the Primordial Immortal Empire person! He
snatched our prey, who was almost dead, and then forced us to
use our Escape Immortal Designs! How despicable! He should
be thrown out of the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory!"
There was an uproar after hearing that it was the Primordial
Immortal Empire who had forced them out! But the Primordial
Immortal Empire made up the bottom four!
The Deep Dreams Empire’s dragon queen was on the verge of
a breakdown. Being defeated by the Primordial Immortal
Empire was humiliating enough, and it smacked of revenge as
well. She said tersely, "Was it Ye Xuanyi, Xing Ling, and Yu
Manyuan joining forces? What sort of despicable technique did
they use to sneak-attack you?"
That was what the mystical dragons thought. But amongst
them, only Ye Xuanyi was a 5-Xuan immortal, and the rest
were a far cry. It had to be a sneak attack, or some other plot,
to force these two mystical dragons out.
As for the goal, it must’ve been spite for the Deep Dreams
Empire’s dragon queen revealing the truth about Wu Yu.
However, to their great surprise, the Deep Indigo Sword
Feather Dragon lifted her head and wailed, "It was not them! It
was that immortal, Wu Yu! He stole our prey, and even
attacked us!"
The uproar vaporized into silence. Everyone looked at each
other, and there was an awkward humor hanging in the air.
Before long, everyone burst into laughter.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King waved a hand. "Kids, stop
kidding. It’s meaningless. Speak on. Did you offend someone
else but won’t dare to say it? It’s very common for youngsters
to fall out. Out with it, it does not matter. Was it Tian Ming,
that little bastard?"
After everyone heard this, they felt like the Sky Chariot Dragon
King was speaking the truth. These two must have been beaten
out by a stronger person but made Wu Yu the scapegoat
because they were afraid of offending that person.
The Deep Dreams Empire’s dragon queen had been given a bad
shock, but she was more relieved after hearing the Sky Chariot
Dragon King’s words. If that were the case, then their pride was
still intact.
But the Deep Green Heartpiercer Dragon shook his head.
"Esteemed Sky Chariot Dragon King, it was no one else but
Wu Yu! The two of us are not mistaken. It was a single human
alone! I did not imagine he would be that strong. He almost
killed the two of us.”
These words shut the mystical dragons up, but they no longer
laughed.
This was impossible to explain.
If Wu Yu was so strong, why would he be in last place?
Besides, he was still at the Longevity Immortal Realm, and not
the Nine Xuan Dao Realm!
Everyone held their breath. Everyone’s expressions were a treat
to watch.
The Deep Dreams Empire Dragon Queen recalled that Wu Yu
had actually beaten Ye Xuanyi in the Primordial Immortal
Empire trials. She had thought it was a lie.
Now it seemed like it was true. After all, Wu Jun was no fool.
How could he have been so foolish this time?
As for the Sky Chariot Dragon King, he seemed to be on the
verge of a breakdown. The better Wu Yu performed, the more
it was a slap to his face. Therefore, it was like he had been
slapped by Wu Jun, and his own taunts had backfired on him.
A new fire appeared in his eyes.
"Impossible...."
Many people were shaking their heads.
Suddenly, the Sky Will Dragon King asked, "Wu Jun, I heard
that this Wu Yu obtained an immortal’s legacy in the mortal
domain, and it’s someone fairly strong. He is being protected
by an elite immortal, right?"
With this, they now understood why the Sky Will Dragon King
had allowed Wu Yu to participate. So he had been privy to
additional information, and had seen Wu Yu in a different light.
Wu Jun had not spoken about it before, but now the chance had
come for him to get his own back. "Of course, I myself am
unable to confirm it. That immortal is very mysterious, and I
cannot confirm who it is. But I can confirm that they are very
strong, and unwilling to expose themselves."
Coming from a Hundred Empire Dragon King, "very strong"
was a completely different notion.
Hearing this, everyone fell silent, especially the Sky Chariot
Dragon King and the Deep Dreams Empire Dragon Queen,
whose faces were still burning.
Wu Hao smiled. "If not, how could he be not even a millennium
old, but already ascended, and near the Nine Xuan Dao Realm?
And even be able to defeat the Nine Xuan Dao Realm
cultivators? Some who just can’t use their brains can only laugh
and jeer inanely."
He had been rubbed raw for a long time, and finally he had
gotten a good shot in at the Sky Chariot Dragon King.

As well as everyone who had laughed just now. Wu Hao’s

words had indeed made them all bitter.
"Who are you talking about, Wu Hao!? You dare mock a
Hundred Empire Dragon King?!" The Sky Chariot Dragon
King’s eyes were spitting fire from his anger.
Wu Hao waved a hand, too lazy to reply. One counterattack
was enough. Besides, it was Ye Qianning who had told him to
keep quiet....
Wu Jun said, "Sky Chariot Dragon King, do not get too worked
up. I daresay that my brother did not mean you."
The brothers were rather bold because they had no choice but
to push back against such humiliation. From their youth, the
Sky Chariot Dragon King had already set himself against Wu
Hao.
Once, Wu Hao was almost beaten to death by the Sky Chariot
Dragon King.
This sort of grudge was one that he could not possibly forget.
In the middle of the fight, it was the Sky Will Dragon King who
spoke. "This means that Wu Yu’s future is very bright indeed."
The Sky Chariot Dragon King said, "True or false, it is not
decided yet. Perhaps they’ve fabricated some lie, afraid that we
would stop two mortals from continuing their mortal domain
tryst. If he is so capable, why would he be in last place on the
Giant Purgatory Pillar? I think that he must have used some
special trick to persuade these two dragons."
Hearing the Sky Chariot Dragon King’s words, the Deep Indigo
Sword Feather Dragon and the Deep Green Heartpiercer
Dragon felt that it sounded logical!
"Seems likely. In any case, what we saw him use did not look
like an immortal’s mystique. It might have been some special
ancient immortal talisman! Except we did not realize it!"
"I already said it! How could he be so strong?"
This was much more believable. Everyone could also console
themselves thus. Against such doubts, Wu Jun did not want to
comment more. He stuck by his words. Time would provide the
answers.
But the word "tryst" had angered Luo Pin. She was good-
natured, but she was fuming now.
"Don’t hold it against such idiots," Ye Qianning consoled her.
"No, I will remember it. One day, I will return it to him," Luo
Pin said, taking a deep breath.
"Mm." Ye Qianning nodded. Although she knew that it was
possible, it was too far away. Luo Pin might have forgotten it
by then.
The Deep Dreams Empire Dragon Queen said, "Isn’t it
forbidden to use immortal talismans? Sky Will Dragon King,
aren’t Wu Yu’s actions illegal? He should be pulled out to be
punished!"
Of course, she was unsatisfied!
The Primordial Immortal Empire had given her a slap to the
face.
The Sky Will Dragon King said, "The supervising people have
found that there was no immortal talisman used in the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory. Stop blindly guessing. If you’re still
suspicious, just watch on."
It seemed like the Sky Will Dragon King and the Sky Chariot
Dragon King were not on the same side.
Of course, the Sky Will Dragon King had a more enigmatic
personality and was difficult to place.
As for the Sky Shadow Dragon Queen, she had not spoken from
start to end.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King was not worried. Even if Wu Yu
could defeat these two, they were only 6-Xuan immortals.
Ultimately, they could only be considered average on the Giant
Purgatory Pillar. Besides, he had already wasted a month. It
was not likely that he could even break the bottom 100 in the
upcoming time.
He might even be using all sorts of techniques that would burn
himself out.
The most glorious one in this trial was still his son, and Wu
Yu’s transformation could only be considered a little hiccup.
Wu Yu had never expected to cause a ruckus after sending this
annoying pair out.
At the same time, he had managed to save face for Wu Hao and
the rest.
After all, the Primordial Immortal Empire occupied the bottom
four in the rankings on the Giant Purgatory Pillar.
After an entire month, Wu Yu had only integrated a Purgatory
Immortal Design from a 3-Xuan immortal. It wasn’t surprising
that Wu Yu had a lower rank than Yu Manyuan, who had kept
a low profile while searching for heavenly immortal prisoners
to battle.
Nonetheless, Wu Yu’s focus wasn’t on this - he continued his
search. To not delay further, he distanced himself from battles
unless the other party targeted him and was unwilling to let him
off.
He soared into the clouds, dove down to the ground, whizzed
through the yellow mist, explored the deep seas, foraged the
mountains, and excavated the deep valleys.
In the process, he discovered a number of Dragon Emperor’s
Prisons.
He even saw a prison that trapped a 8-Xuan immortal class
mystical dragon. He naturally didn’t enter, as he couldn’t deal
with it at this point and it would just be a waste of time.
"Where are you?"
Soon, half a year had passed.
Wu Yu was frustrated to the point of collapsing.
He had searched almost everywhere in the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory, but he hadn’t found any new information.
He had distanced himself from the crowd and had almost been
forgotten.
For the final rankings, those participants were searching and
killing frenziedly.
Only Wu Yu appeared to be casual and at ease.
However, he was indeed fatigued from searching and couldn’t
get an answer no matter how he called out.
He even started to doubt himself. "Could it be that someone is
playing a trick on me? Maybe no one is waiting for me in this
place?"
If it wasn’t because he had been searching for half a year, he
might have given up at this point.
His will was prompting him to persevere.
However, he felt like he should change his approach.
Therefore, he started thinking.
On the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield, what had
happened five months ago had gradually been forgotten.
Through the Eye of the Dragon Emperor, many exhilarating
battles were shown. At least half of all battles were from the
Tian Ming Dragon Lord. He had a huge lead, and no one could
catch up to him.
As for the rankings on the Giant Purgatory Pillar, they were
changing drastically. Although the changes to the top three
were infrequent, the bottom 600 were almost changing
constantly!
This was proof of the intense competition.
It was especially so for the top 10!
People were constantly making into and dropping out of the top
10. Occasionally, one would make it to the top three but
dropped to over 20 in just a few days.
It was clear that the difference between them was minute. It was
said that close to 30 people were touted to have the strength to
make it to the top 10.
Despite the intense competition, Wu Yu stayed firmly at the
bottom. Therefore, the ruckus that concerned him previously
was easily neglected.
When the people saw that the bottom four were all from the
Primordial Immortal Empire, they couldn’t help but smile in
comfort.
Even those that had triggered their Escape Immortal Designs
were at higher places despite constantly dropping down the
ranking board.
Finally, Ye Xuanyi brought some cheers for the Primordial
Immortal Empire!
He became the fifth from the bottom from being the fourth from
the bottom!
"Congratulations! Finally! There’s someone making huge
progress!" The people were mocking Wu Jun.
However, Ye Xuanyi dropped back to being fourth from the
bottom just a few days later. The mystical dragons continued
their mockery.
The truth was that with his strength, it shouldn’t be an issue for
him to rank in the top 500. However, as long as he showed his
face, he would be targeted by all.
It was already incredible that he had hidden to this point and
hadn’t been forced to leave. For them, this was probably a
nightmare.
Wu Yu didn’t know about the situation outside.
What he knew was that his ranking was definitely behind.
However, that didn’t matter. He wasn’t in this place in pursuit
of higher ranking.
In the end, he decided to create some doppelgangers. Although
this might draw attention, he would also have more eyes
around. Perhaps he would encounter that existence.
He created a thousand doppelgangers, which exceeded the total
number of participants.
As such, the chances of Wu Yu encountering other participants
increased extensively. In fact, he would see other participants
at almost any moment.
"Wu Yu! Quick! Grab him and send him to the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord!"
They swarmed forward to restrain Wu Yu. To their surprise,
the doppelganger exploded and they only got a fake.
This process happened constantly, letting Wu Yu understand
deeply their desire to get Genesis Mystical Pills.
There were people constantly attacking him. As a result, his
doppelgangers didn’t last long before returning as monkey
hairs.
He persevered for a month, and almost everyone knew that Wu
Yu had his doppelgangers searching around. However, as the
doppelgangers were too fragile, no one was worried.
Moreover, Wu Yu even met the Tian Ming Dragon Lord.
His Dragon Emperor Immortal Design was unbelievably huge.
"Wu Yu, just wait for a while longer. Once I see that others
can’t catch up to me, I will have time to play around with you.
Be prepared." The Tian Ming Dragon Lord snorted.
"I’m only afraid you are too dull, and I’m not interested." It was
just a doppelganger that was meeting him, so Wu Yu wasn’t
bothered by him.
Both of them had different goals. Being the only one in the
Immortal Lord Realm, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord had
absolute dominance in this battlefield. In fact, many people
were focused on searching for the Dragon Emperor’s Prison for
him.
Finally, one of Wu Yu’s doppelgangers heard unexpected news
from lurking around a group of four.
The leading female mystical dragon said that she had
encountered some ruins named the Eight Division Heavenly
Dragon Hall. There shouldn’t have been any buildings in the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
In that case, why would there be ruins?
She said, "I combed the entire ruins but didn’t find a prison.
There’s nothing strange about it. I’m just curious as to why
there would be ruins popping up in this place."
The other mystical dragon said, "There are lots of things that
we can’t understand. There’s nothing to be curious about. Let’s
continue our search for the prisons.”
The four mystical dragons were all female. All of them were at
their prime age and were stunningly beautiful. Even in their
mystical dragon forms, one could see their beauty. Wherever
they went in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, they would
always be a beautiful sight to witness.
Wu Yu let his doppelganger follow them while his main body
rushed over.
"Perhaps that strange Eight Division Heavenly Dragon Hall is
the place I’m searching for."

From their conversation, Wu Yu could tell that all four female

dragons were from the Sky Snow Empire. The Sky Snow
Empire was ranked 71st, higher than the Primordial Immortal
Empire.
Their leader and the strongest among them was the ultimate
mystical dragon, the Deep Seas Icy Immortal Dragon. She was
the daughter of the Sky Snow Empire’s dragon king. She was
young but already possessed six immortal dao marks. In her
empire, she was an elite genius.
The other three were Sky Snow Pattering Dragons. They
weren’t weak and were at the level of a 5-Xuan immortal.
Moreover, they were all supreme mystical dragons.
Those that were participating this time were largely supreme
mystical dragons.
Naturally, there were differences between supreme mystical
dragons.
The strongest Deep Seas Icy Immortal Dragon was Xue Bingyi.
She was a renowned, aloof beauty in the Sky Heart Tribe. Just
from seeing her snow-white dragon form, Wu Yu was certain
she would be an absolute beauty in her human form.
It was her that had visited the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon
Hall.
If he revealed himself, he couldn’t possibly get them to bring
him to the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon Hall. Wu Yu also
couldn’t kill her and rob her memories. After all, she was a 6-
Xuan immortal, and the group of four female dragons wouldn’t
be easy to deal with.
However, this was his only opportunity. Seeing that no one else
was around, Wu Yu showed up before them as they were
heading off.
"Greetings, big sister mystical dragons." It was better to be
courteous when asking for a favor....
The other party was shocked and took several steps back.
Seeing that the person was Wu Yu, their expressions changed
slightly.
"Who are your big sisters? Shameless! Don’t call us that!" One
of the Sky Snow Pattering Dragons cursed.
The other said, "Big Sister Xue, didn’t the Tian Ming Dragon
Lord say that we could get a Genesis Mystical Pill and even a
destinable immortal talisman if we take this guy to him?"
At this point, Xue Bingyi was staring and observing Wu Yu
with her usual cold gaze. She naturally remembered what the
Tian Ming Dragon Lord had promised.
Pride gleamed in her eyes, and it was clear that she was an
arrogant person. She lifted her head, and her eyes were on Wu
Yu as she said, "What motive do you have for appearing before
us? If there’s nothing important, we will have to waste some
time to earn that Genesis Mystical Pill."
Although they weren’t being kind, Wu Yu went straight to the
point. "When I passed by previously, I heard you speaking
about the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon Hall. I was
wondering if you could lead me there. As a reward... Although
I don’t have any Genesis Mystical Pill, I can give you each 100
Dao Deepening Pill as rewards. Moreover, you wouldn’t have
to fight to get them."
The truth was, Wu Yu knew it was unlikely that they would
agree after seeing their haughty attitude.
Just as he had expected, all four of them laughed upon hearing
him. One of the Sky Snow Pattering Dragons remarked,
"Presumptuous! Are you taking us as beggars? Asking us to
lead the way for you for just 100 Dao Deepening Pills? We
could befriend the Tian Ming Dragon Lord and get the Genesis
Mystical Pill. Why would we want your Dao Deepening Pills?
Foolish!"
Immediately after, the three Sky Snow Pattering Dragons
shifted and surrounded Wu Yu in all directions.
Xue Bingyi dropped her smile and said, "I don’t understand if
you have a brain. To us, you are no more than a Genesis
Mystical Pill. It wouldn’t matter if you had just stayed hidden,
but you came to ask for our help. Those from the mortal domain
are indeed foolish. If people like you can become immortal, it
must be too easy to become an immortal in the mortal domain."
Wu Yu smiled and asked, "So you all aren’t going to agree and
want to take me to the Tian Ming Dragon Lord?"
Seeing Wu Yu still keeping a smile, disgust filled her. After all,
she thought Wu Yu was foolish to still smile at this point.
"To think that the Primordial Immortal Dragon that just joined
the Primordial Immortal Empire would be interested in you,
what a distorted taste she has. An insignificant immortal that
came from the mortal domain like you is filled with filth. Yet
she could be intimate with trash like you. The thought of it is
repugnant."
She was degrading Luo Pin.
Clearly, she was hateful after witnessing Luo Pin’s beauty.
"Seeing that the group of you looked like decent individuals, I
had not thought of attacking you previously. Who would have
thought you would possess a tongue capable of such
viciousness? In that case, I won’t be courteous."
Now Wu Yu wouldn’t be seen as bullying her.
She was asking for it.
"Shut up! How dare you humiliate Big Sister Xue! You must
be courting death!" Wu Yu had only made one comment and
the four female mystical dragons were furious.
Xue Bingyi said, "Torture him to the brink of death before
sending him out of the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory!"
"Alright."
Out of the three Sky Snow Pattering Dragons, two remained in
position, while the last one stepped forward to face Wu Yu.
After all, it wouldn’t take much to deal with a heavenly
immortal.
As they were arguing, one of the Sky Snow Pattering Dragons
was already attacking.
She was covered with a strong, icy aura. Snowflakes flew
everywhere she went and caused the surrounding temperatures
to drop. A thick layer of ice had frozen on top of the barren
land.
"I really don’t understand what’s wrong with the Primordial
Immortal Empire’s dragon king, sending an idiot like this into
this trial. Is he doing it just to make up the numbers or is he
trying to make a fool of himself?"
As she attacked, that Sky Snow Pattering Dragon was still
chatting with the other three dragons.
She was about to defeat Wu Yu easily, and her eyes were filled
only with contempt.
"Those who insult others will always be humiliated."
Wu Yu felt only disgust for these few beauties of the mystical
dragon tribe.
He would not be merciful!
"Immortal Cloud Field!"
In an instant, he executed the fourth tier of the Somersault
Cloud. His snow-white Immortal Cloud Field expanded rapidly
in this world of yellowish fog. Within a short period of time, up
to 100 li of his surroundings was under the control of his
Immortal Cloud Field.
Endless clouds acted like viscous swamps and swallowed the
four mystical dragons, including the Deep Seas Icy Immortal
Dragon. They were all trapped in Wu Yu’s Immortal Cloud
Field.
"What is this?" the Sky Snow Pattering Dragon shrieked in
alarm. They had sunk into the Cloud Field and were struggling
hard to escape. However, their struggles were ineffective.
"Is someone helping him fight us?" Even at this moment, the
idea that it was Wu Yu fighting back on his own had never
crossed their minds. Hence, at such a time, these four mystical
dragons were ignoring Wu Yu, and searching for their attacker
instead.
"Devil Incarnate."
This was the Crimson Blood Roc Demon’s mystique. It
instantly surrounded the three Sky Snow Pattering Dragons.
Under the control of the Immortal Cloud Field, in addition to
their lack of caution against Wu Yu, Wu Yu’s Devil Incarnate
layered on them, entangled around them, and tore crazily into
their flesh!
"Ah!" It was only when they were screaming in pain that they
saw Wu Yu flashing past in the Immortal Cloud Field. Perhaps
it was only now that they realized that it was Wu Yu who had
attacked them after all.
However, it was too late for the mystical dragons.
"Hellish Capillaries!"
This was the Natural Mystique of the Red Devil. His arm
instantly turned into countless capillaries that rushed out like
poisonous snakes. The Sky Snow Pattering Dragons were
trapped by both the Immortal Cloud Field and the Devil
Incarnate. They were about to use their mystiques to escape
when countless blood thorns pierced through their bodies!
"Ah!!!"
These three mystical dragons screamed again at the same time.
The extraordinary pain inflicted grave injuries on them. Now
they were under Wu Yu’s control and could not retaliate!
At this moment, Wu Yu had turned into a 12-zhang-tall
Immortal Ape in the Immortal Cloud Field! One of his thick,
muscular arms had turned into countless capillaries that had
pierced through the three Sky Snow Pattering Dragons and
wrapped them up so tightly that only their heads were exposed.
Now they were covered in blood and writhing in pain. They
screamed in terror while staring in disbelief at Wu Yu, whose
back was turned to them.
Wu Yu turned to face them and asked, "How are you feeling?"
With just one glance from him, the three mystical dragons
trembled even more uncontrollably in fear.
"Please let us go. We know our mistakes now! Big Sister Xue,
please save us!" With a sob, the three Sky Snow Pattering
Dragons howled in pain.
"It is your turn now." Wu Yu looked coldly at the Deep Seas
Icy Immortal Dragon as he spoke. He was dragging the three
mystical dragons along with him, while his other arm wielded
the Luminary Celestial Dragon Mantra Sword.
The Deep Seas Icy Immortal Dragon was shocked. She was
also trapped in the Immortal Cloud Field, and at this moment,
she was panicking.
"This is unexpected. How could you disguise yourself as a
heavenly immortal when you are so powerful?! That is just
being despicable! How can sneaky people like you enter the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory? This is a humiliation!" the Deep
Seas Icy Immortal Dragon roared in fury.
"Shut up. You seem so familiar with moral preachings. It shows
that you’ve done that a lot. However, that is ineffective against
me. I believe only in fighting." Wu Yu dragged the three
mystical dragons who were begging for mercy and pressed
forward towards her.
"Release them first and I will fight you!" The Deep Seas Icy
Immortal Dragon huffed.
"There is no need for that. I can defeat you using only one arm!"
"That’s impossible!"
This time, this 6-Xuan immortal was prepared to fight as she
had realized the threat of Wu Yu’s strength.
However, this was not enough to scare her.
"You simply snuck an attack on us because we underestimated
you. That is nothing! I can beat you back into your pitiful self,
and you shall see how pathetic you are!"
That Deep Seas Icy Immortal Dragon taunted him.
"Immortal Sealing Ice World!"
Instantly, she puffed out mouthful after mouthful of icy-cold
mist. The mist expanded rapidly inside the Immortal Cloud
Field. At the same time, it froze the surroundings quickly, and
soon, the entire Immortal Cloud Field was frozen!
Wu Yu and the entire Immortal Cloud Field were frozen in this
cold, bone-chilling ice!
His opponent had six daos, and they were all concentrated on
this Natural Mystique. Its offensive power was stunning! Even
the Somersault Cloud was frozen!
The Deep Seas Icy Immortal Dragon was indeed confident in
her mystique. She looked haughtily at Wu Yu when she saw
that she had frozen everything.
She was fast in her retaliation, but Wu Yu was faster! In the
instant that the Immortal Cloud Field was about to be fully
frozen, Wu Yu’s eyes blasted two horrifying beams of light!
"Optics of Immortal Expanse!"
The flame pillars immediately burned through the ice and
snow, melting them. It managed to burn through the ice right
before the Immortal Cloud Field was entirely frozen!
The Deep Seas Icy Immortal Dragon’s expression changed
immediately and she summoned countless ice crystals to
defend herself. However, her defenses were blasted apart by
Wu Yu. When the flame pillars hit her, she was instantly
engulfed in fierce fire!
"100,000 Dragons Immortal Butchering Design!"
Wu Yu had defeated her in one move. He was unbelievably
calm as he used the power of the Luminary Celestial Dragon
Mantra Sword. In an instant, 100,000 sword qi dragons
exploded out and tore the ice apart. Then the overwhelming
sword qi rushed and slashed towards the Deep Seas Icy
Immortal Dragon, Xue Bingyi, as she burnt in the fierce flames!
If Wu Yu had wanted to kill her, she would already be dead.
However, he had only pierced through her body, slashed her
tendons, damaged her muscles and bones, and burnt her snowy-
white dragon scales with his flames until they were black like
charcoal!
BOOM!
Xue Bingyi collapsed to the ground, heavily wounded.
This was a terrible defeat for her.

Usually, Wu Yu would be gentler on girls, but he had not held

back at all this time. He could never forgive this woman for
insulting Luo Pin.
The four mystical dragons were all defeated by Wu Yu. Every
one of them was heavily injured and could no longer retaliate.
Wu Yu took out an immortal treasure. It was a huge net called
the Heaven’s Thunder Net. He wrapped all four mystical
dragons in his Heaven’s Thunder Net and trapped them before
looking calmly at them.
"Big Sister Xue, Big Sister Xue, are you alright!? Wake up,
please!"
"You imbecile! If you kill Big Sister Xue, your entire family
will have to pay for it!"
"Big Sister Xue is the Sky Snow Empire’s dragon king’s
daughter!"
The Sky Snow Pattering Dragons snarled at Wu Yu. However,
they shut up in fear as soon as they saw Wu Yu’s cold eyes.
Their terrified looks formed a stark contrast to their arrogance
previously.
Actually, Xue Bingyi was conscious. Wu Yu said, "Stop
pretending. It is no big deal to be defeated in a battle. You just
have to be smarter next time. Don’t keep thinking of others as
fools. If that is the case, perhaps you guys are the true fools.
Haha."
Xue Bingyi’s eyes were bloodshot as she glared furiously at
Wu Yu. She spat, "You have injured me gravely today. You are
indeed strong, and you hide your strength well! But I swear that
one day, I shall return the humiliation that you have given me
today a thousand fold!"
"Come on, my losers have never had a chance to catch up with
me." Wu Yu shook his head and laughed. He then said, "You
are the typical kind of person who acquiesces to something
after having refused someone’s first overture. You refused my
Dao Deepening Pills and demanded Genesis Mystical Pills
instead. Do you think it is that easy to get Genesis Mystical
Pills?"
Xue Bingyi continued her threat, "Don’t rejoice too early. The
Tian Ming Dragon Lord will kill you sooner or later!"
"That guy? Hehe." Wu Yu had no patience to share too much
with these mystical dragons. He used the Heaven’s Thunder
Net and the lightning instantly electrocuted the mystical
dragons until they screamed pitifully. They even lost control of
their bladders. The beautiful mystical dragons were now in a
pathetic state and could only sob in pain.
"Lead the way. I’m no saint and am talented in torturing people.
If you guys want to remain here, you have to obey my orders.
Otherwise, I shall chop off your dragon horns one by one and
send you out personally."
If their dragon horns were chopped off, then their Dragon
Emperor Immortal Designs would be removed. It would be
meaningless for them to remain in the purgatory.
"First, turn into your human forms." Otherwise, their bodies
would be too big and would be eyesores.
The four mystical dragons glared indignantly at Wu Yu when
he made such a request. Obviously, they did not want to do as
he had said.
Wu Yu corrected their attitudes easily. He activated the
Heaven’s Thunder Net and electrocuted them until they
screamed and foamed at their mouths at the same time.
"Wu Yu, you will die horribly! I swear!" Xue Bingyi glared at
him with bloodshot eyes.
After being tortured, the mystical dragons could only listen to
his orders and turn back into their human forms. Indeed, Xue
Bingyi was really beautiful in her human form. Her beauty was
perfection. However, now she was charred and was not really
pretty.
"Lead the way. If I find out that you all have been playing with
me, then I don’t mind having a taste of the beauties from the
Sky Snow Empire." Wu Yu grinned evilly.
"You!" Now the four dragons felt terror from the depths of their
hearts. They were all virgins and would not have their honor
defiled by Wu Yu!
Hence, while tears welled in their eyes, they still gritted their
teeth and showed the way for Wu Yu.
Wu Yu worked swiftly and headed towards the Eight Division
Heavenly Dragon Hall. This was naturally very important to
him. His original intention in approaching these dragons was
simply to seek help in finding his way. The whole reason why
he had ended up capturing them instead was because they were
too disgusting. Otherwise, Wu Yu could not be bothered with
them.
They had seen the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon Hall
before. However, that was a few days ago, hence they had to
find the direction again. It was no easy feat. After all, that ruin
was not very big.
"Wu Yu, no matter how strong you are, it is impossible for you
to marry an ultimate mystical dragon. This is the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm, we have countless elders who are
stronger than you, and they will never allow that to happen."
Even as a captive, Xue Bingyi was still throwing snide remarks
at Wu Yu.
Wu Yu only wanted them to lead the way. He knew what he
was doing and did not need to hear their snarky remarks. If they
dared to say anything else, he would electrocute them till they
foamed at their mouths again.
"How far and how long before we reach the Eight Division
Heavenly Dragon Hall?"
"...."
"Are you going to tell me or not?"
"Based on your current speed, you will probably need about an
hour. We are going in the correct direction, but I’m not sure of
its exact location. When we reach the place, we still have to
search for it." Xue Bingyi gritted her teeth as she spoke.
Wu Yu continued to journey forward.
"Why are you looking for that ruin? Why did you come into the
purgatory and what secret are you hiding?" Xue Bingyi asked
suspiciously.
"Shut up."
A one-hour journey was not considered long, but the trouble
was that he would need to search for the Eight Division
Heavenly Dragon Hall after reaching the place. Hence, he sped
up and moved faster.
Xue Bingyi and the other three were now cowering together.
Even the eyes of the three Sky Snow Pattering Dragons were
shivering in fear.
Every time they looked at Wu Yu, they trembled.
And Xue Bingyi continued to glare silently at Wu Yu with
hatred.
Suddenly, she saw a flash of nine-colored thunder streaking
past in the skies above them.
Joy instantly filled her heart.
She saw that Wu Yu was still focused on moving forward. In
haste, she shouted out, "Lin Xiaoting, save me!"
Her voice was loud and clear. Anyone in their surroundings
could hear her shout.
Of course, Wu Yu heard it too.
Wu Yu did not hear that flash of thunder in the skies, as it had
flashed past too quickly. However, after Xue Bingyi shouted
for help, he felt the impending threat immediately.
An expert was passing by at this time!
Wu Yu had already trapped the girls and stopped them from
using Message Talismans. He was not expecting to bump into
an expert in the huge Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory!
And this expert was someone that Wu Yu could not defeat at
the moment.
Wu Yu knew that he was in trouble after he had heard Xue
Bingyi shout for Lin Xiaoting’s help.
Wu Yu had a certain level of understanding of the experts in
the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. There were about 30 9-Xuan
immortals in here, and some of them were quite famous.
This Lin Xiaoting was one of them. He was from the Sky Will
Empire and had the highest hope of entering the top three in
this trial. His true form was a Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon,
also a type of ultimate mystical dragon!
At the same time, he was also one of the Sky Will Dragon
King’s adopted sons.
If Tian Ming was not a repeated participant of the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory Trial, Lin Xiaoting would be one of the
hot favourites to get the championship.
This Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon was fast. Based on his
speed, his Dragon Emperor Immortal Design should be quite
large by now.
Just as Wu Yu had realized who it was that Xue Bingyi had
shouted out for, he raised his head and saw a flash of a nine-
colored heavenly thunder raging down from the sky!
It was heading straight for Wu Yu’s head!
It was indeed extremely fast!
That nine-colored heavenly thunder was extremely strong. It
was not even near Wu Yu yet, but he felt as though the entire
world was going to explode!
Wu Yu reacted immediately.
In the face of danger, he abandoned his captives, Xue Bingyi
and the three other mystical dragons, and chose to escape for
his life.
He knew clearly that he was no match for this Mystical Palace
Thunder Dragon at the moment.
The other party’s nine-colored heavenly thunder could
obliterate him!
Hence, he integrated the Somersault Cloud into his body and
somersaulted. He left Xue Bingyi and her group behind and
escaped just before the nine-colored heavenly thunder struck
the empty place that he once stood!
He disappeared instantly!
"Escaped? That’s fast?"
In the sky, a gigantic, snow-white mystical dragon covered in
nine-colored thunder flew downwards. Along the dragon’s
spine, from his head to his tail, sharp spikes protruded like
horns. At the edge of his tail, there was a sharp spike protruding
out like a spear. While he was snow-white, the nine-colored
thunder that surrounded him made him look very flashy.
"Xue Bingyi? Who was that?" Lin Xiaoting asked.
"Big Brother Lin, you have to get revenge for me!" Xue Bingyi
turned into a mystical dragon and showed him her whole body,
which was covered with wounds. With tears in her eyes, she
scrambled to the Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon like a little
dragon in need of protection. Her cries were pitiful. The Sky
Snow Pattering Dragons were all sobbing sadly too.
"Who is it that has hurt you like this!? This is preposterous!"
The Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon was enraged and felt
sorry for the girls.
The three Sky Snow Pattering Dragons said angrily, "All of our
injuries came from that immortal called Wu Yu from the
Primordial Immortal Empire!"
"Yes, it was him!"
"What? Isn’t he just a heavenly immortal?" Lin Xiaoting was
shocked.
Xue Bingyi said, "He probably used something to hide his aura
and cultivation level. His real cultivation level might be the
same as mine. He used despicable moves to defeat me!"
That Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon’s eyes were filled with
thundering rage.
"That rascal dares to act weak in order to defeat the strong. This
is really interesting. Looks like Tian Ming has underestimated
him. Little Sister Xue, don’t worry. If I don’t get your revenge
for you, I will relinquish my surname.
"A mere immortal dares to act impudently in our Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm and even wants to marry one of our
ultimate mystical dragons. He is really interesting and daring."
.............
Wu Yu had somersaulted on the spot and appeared far away.
Part of the nine-colored heavenly thunder had entered his body
and he had carried it out with him.
It might just be a part of the nine-colored heavenly thunder, but
it was still very powerful and tore through Wu Yu’s body like
poisonous snakes. His flesh split and his blood flowed out. Wu
Yu’s body was heavily wounded!
Bang, bang, bang!
The thunder’s destructive power was surprising. Lucky for Wu
Yu, the Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon was not here, hence
he could quickly suppress and destroy the remnants of the
thunder in his body.
But his body was still injured.
He rested for about half a day before he recovered fully.
"A 9-Xuan immortal is quite strong. He’s not an easy opponent.
Looks like I have to proceed with caution here."
Wu Yu took a deep breath.
While he had lost Xue Bingyi and her group as his guides, he
should not be too far away from the Eight Division Heavenly
Dragon Hall.
Besides, now that he knew the general direction of the hall, he
was confident that he could find it alone.
"But if that Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon is adamant about
seeking revenge for Xue Bingyi, he will know where I’m
heading towards. Will they be waiting there for me?"
There was a possibility that this would happen.
"But even so, I still have to go there. At most, I will have to
escape again."
Wu Yu had many mystiques and moves. He was not afraid of
them.
He turned his real body small, hid in the lowest level of the
ground, and moved silently towards the direction of the Eight
Division Heavenly Dragon Hall. Naturally, he was more
cautious of his surroundings now.
He slowed down when he guessed that he was near the hall. He
was not anxious, as he knew the approximate location of the
hall and that it would be difficult to find its exact location.
When he was within approximate range of the hall, he realized
that he was surrounded by deep crevices, so he had to expand
his search into the subterranean areas. His area of search was
much larger than he had imagined. This was because the land
above ground was flat, while the underground area was filled
with deep crevices.
But he was very patient. This time, Wu Yu called back all his
doppelgangers .
"I have searched this place before but have not gone deep
underground in my search."
He knew this place.

At that time, Wu Yu had just entered the Dragon Emperor’s

Purgatory. Hence, he was anxious and had overlooked this
place. He was focused on calling out for the elder and waiting
for a reply at the beginning of his search.
Now, when about half a year had passed, his patience only
grew.
"Where is that place exactly?"
He spent a few days searching the vicinity carefully. Actually,
if he still had Xue Bingyi to lead the way, then he might not
need to spend these few days searching. To Wu Yu, it felt as
though he had not much time left.
Finally, one day, Wu Yu was in the depths of a crevice when
he saw in the dark that there was a dilapidated palace covered
in dust. It was obviously dilapidated for countless years. There
was wild grass in it, and it looked strange and eerily silent.
"I have found it. Elder, are you waiting in there for me?" Wu
Yu hid nearby and started calling out. He wanted to get a reply,
but there was none.
He observed the palace and realized that there was a crooked
signboard on top of the door. There were five words: Eight
Division Heavenly Dragon Hall, on it. However, that signboard
looked like it would fall onto the ground and smash into
smithereens at any time.
It looked as though it had been hundreds of thousands of years
since anyone had visited this palace.
"If that mysterious person really exists, it is likely that he will
be inside," Wu Yu thought.
But Xue Bingyi and the Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon might
also be waiting for him inside. They might have set up a trap
for him. Hence, Wu Yu was hesitant.
"I can turn invisible. Shall I go in and take a look?" the Full
Moon of Nanshan asked.
"No, they have a 9-Xuan immortal who can see through your
invisibility," Wu Yu replied.
"How about me?" Ye Xixi wanted to help as well.
"Not you either. If something dangerous is waiting inside, it
will be easier for me to escape alone."
"Then what should we do?"
"Let’s not rush, wait first."
Wu Yu did not believe that these people who were competing
fiercely to strengthen their Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs
would waste time just to take revenge on him.
Especially Lin Xiaoting, who was competing to enter the top
10 or even the top three. His performance would be affected if
he wasted time to make trouble for Wu Yu.
Besides, Wu Yu was not there to hunt the prisoners. Hence, he
could afford to wait. He could wait here for a long period of
time. He did not believe that the other party would remain in
there to wait for him for half a month or one month.
He watched from afar, unmoving.
There were no signs of movement at all.
Five days passed.
There were still no signs of movement. He swept the area with
his Eyes of Fire and Gold. He could be quite sure that there was
no one inside.
10 days passed and still there were no signs of movement.
Half a month passed and Wu Yu felt that he had waited for long
enough. It was time for him to act. Obviously the other party
was not lying in ambush here for him.
"Perhaps that Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon does not have
the time to help Xue Bingyi take revenge on me. Also, I have
already escaped once from his hands."
Now that half a month had passed, there were only five more
months left in the trial. Wu Yu made a decision. He was a little
nervous as he crept closer to the dragon hall.
He crept nearer and nearer.
He soon arrived at the dilapidated garden. Wu Yu had an odd
feeling. He was now standing at the doors of the dragon hall.
The signboard above his head looked like it was about to crash
down on his head at any time.
The dragon hall was pitch black inside and filled with a pungent
stench. Dust covered everything inside. Even the dust and soil
on the roof was three chi thick.
He was now very tiny and had slipped into the dragon hall
quietly. He entered the darkness and arrived inside the hall. It
looked very plain, and there was nothing inside. It was just
empty space.
"Elder, I have arrived. I’m the inheritor of the Great Sage,
Heaven’s Equal’s legacy. Are you waiting here for me?"
The hall was not big. Wu Yu looked around and spoke into the
darkness at the same time.
However, there was no reply at that moment. While this made
Wu Yu feel disappointed, he did not give up on his search for
the elder.
Or perhaps there was something that he had left behind.
He was searching for something special. Even if he only found
a stone, he would probably take it. However, there was not even
a stone to be found in the hall. It was just darkness.
"What is going on...."
Just as he was feeling puzzled, the entire Eight Division
Heavenly Dragon Hall suddenly lit up with a bright, eye-
piercing light!
Chapter 1300: City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons
"What?" Wu Yu was pleasantly surprised. Something was
finally happening.
Was the person waiting here about to appear?
The light was very intense and dazzling!
But in the next instant, he felt that something was wrong. This
strong light started to be charged with sword qi. The killing
intent was terrifying. The walls here were changing, and a
frightfully deadly aura materialized!
"This is an immortal treasure! It’s trying to trap me!"
Wu Yu immediately reacted.
"That’s right. It’s my destinable immortal treasure, the City of
10,000 Swords and Dragons. GAHA." Suddenly, laughter
boomed from all around. Wu Yu recognized the voice - the
Tian Ming Dragon Lord.
Evidently, he had placed his City of 10,000 Swords and
Dragons destinable immortal treasure here, waiting for Wu Yu
to take the bait!
As he spoke, the entire hall changed into a dazzling castle.
Within the castle, there were many palaces, and the streets
seemed as real as could be. But each and every brick was
covered in spirit designs!
Any destinable immortal treasure would have one billion spirit
designs!
In this vast city, every last tile, the glass and bricks of the
houses, the lush trees, all of it was covered in numerous spirit
designs, and all of them shone brightly.
Wu Yu was currently surrounded by one billion spirit designs.
It was his first time seeing a destinable immortal treasure, so it
was a huge shock for him!
There were so many immortal designs closely knit together. It
felt like a real city, and every last detail was vivid and lifelike.
It was definitely habitable. In that case, how many powerful
immortals, how many months must it have taken to build it?
One billion spirit designs, all working together at the same time
within their tessellated lattice.
Every brick and tile was made of superb immortal essences and
precious quintessences, and many of them had thousands of
spiritual marks. That was how such a huge castle could be
created.
Within this castle, Wu Yu could see 10,000 dragon-shaped
swords, their hilts buried in the ground, and their blades
bristling towards the sky like 10,000 roaring mystical dragons.
The huge swords’ blades were the highest point in the entire
castle. The 10,000 sword points were linked by white lightning
that formed a huge, electrical web, and Wu Yu was trapped in
their midst.
This was a destinable immortal treasure, the City of 10,000
Swords and Dragons!
It belonged to the Tian Ming Dragon Lord!
In truth, Wu Yu was very envious. The scale of a destinable
immortal treasure was completely different from immortal
treasures and ancient immortal treasures.
But right now, he was trapped in its midst.
"Scum, you’ve finally taken the bait. I’ve waited for you for
more than half a month. You think I would waste time there? I
can just leave a destinable immortal treasure behind. Look
around you. Ever tasted a destinable immortal treasure before?
Jealous, eh?"
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord’s voice again reverberated around
the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons.
"Where is the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon Hall?" Wu Yu
knew that what he was looking at was not real, but an illusion
of the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons.
"I leveled it flat long ago. What are you looking for in that
wreck? I not only leveled it, but I even dug up the 300 chi of
soil around it. Pity I didn’t find a single worthy thing." The Tian
Ming Dragon Lord snorted.
He had not only destroyed the palace, but had even churned up
300 chi of soil around it. It was hopeless.
Wu Yu was, of course, furious. He had spent so much effort to
hunt this place down, all to be ruined by this punk. Plus, this
guy’s father was outside giving Wu Hao a hard time. Wu Yu
was sorely tempted to give up the search and duke it out with
this guy till the end!
He did not want to be high-profile, but now everyone knew
about his circumstances. The Deep Dreams Empire Dragon
Queen’s fat mouth had made sure of that.
And if he did not rise up now, Wu Hao and the others would be
laughed at forever.
But Wu Yu just felt that it was more important to find that being
who had called him!
"Are you furious? I heard you beat up that Lin Xiaoting woman
quite badly. We are all waiting for you. Come on."
He roared with laughter. Controlling the City of 10,000 Swords
and Dragons, he sent it flying towards him. Wu Yu was already
completely negated by this destinable immortal treasure. He
was trapped within the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons,
where Tian Ming was like a god.
The scores of spirit designs winked and twinkled. After they
locked on to Wu Yu, a barrage of attacks was clearly imminent.
According to the Tian Ming Dragon Lord’s plan, by the time
Wu Yu reached him, he would already be beaten to his last
breath of life.
Wu Yu saw the formidable attack of the City of 10,000 Swords
and Dragons incoming, and responded, "Tian Ming, don’t
celebrate too early. There will be a reckoning."
Whoosh!
He used the Somersault Cloud and flipped out of the destinable
immortal treasure!
Not even the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons could hold
the Somersault Cloud.
Wu Yu continued to improve, as did his mystiques. Before, the
Ancient Soul Tower had managed to hold him, but now, the
City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons could not. Besides, the
Ancient Soul Tower was an internal world, whereas Wu Yu
was simply on the surface of this City of 10,000 Swords and
Dragons destinable immortal treasure, but not inside it.
Still, not many could have broken out of the Tian Ming Dragon
Lord’s destinable immortal treasure.
Far away, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord, Lin Xiaoting, Xue
Bingyi, and many other Sky Will Empire, Sky Shadow Empire,
and Sky Chariot Empire mystical dragons were gathered
together, gleefully awaiting his arrival.
Xue Bingyi was in the arms of Lin Xiaoting. Her injuries were
already healed, and now she was like a little bird, adorable and
endearing. Lin Xiaoting was pleased as could be.
"Little Sister Xue, just wait a moment. He will be here in a jiffy.
You can have the first go."
"Thank you, Big Brother Lin. I will definitely repay you
properly." Thinking of Wu Yu, her eyes flared with anger.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord smiled. "Hold yourselves back,
you two. There are many more lining up here."
"I also have to thank you, Big Brother Tian Ming, for standing
up for me," Xue Bingyi said.
Lin Xiaoting said, "Him? He’s not doing it for you, but for that
Primordial Immortal Dragon. This guy is a wicked one. He
won’t even let a baby off."
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord affected a pious face. "Don’t talk
nonsense. I’m not that kind.... Damn!" Suddenly, his face
clouded.
"What’s wrong?" they asked.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord cursed, "That rascal, he might
have used his Escape Immortal Design. He’s fled!"
Xue Bingyi’s face immediately darkened.
"That’s too cowardly! To even use the Escape Immortal Design
for this!"
"I’ve overestimated that bastard. I thought he had more
gumption."
Lin Xiaoting was frustrated as well. He said to Xue Bingyi,
"Don’t worry. As long as Wu Yu is still in the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm, I will definitely seek justice for you when we
go out."
"Alright. Thank you, Big Brother Lin."
Xue Bingyi was gnashing her teeth in frustration. She had been
so close to revenge, but he had slipped away.
"What a coward. Doesn’t even have the stomach for this."
..............
Wu Yu watched as the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons flew
out of sight.
"If they’re not chasing me anymore, they must have assumed I
escaped with the Escape Immortal Design."
He guessed.
After the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons was gone, an
empty space was left. The space that Wu Yu had arrived at was
indeed a huge crater. The Tian Ming Dragon Lord had dug 300
chi down and practically excavated the entire Eight Division
Heavenly Dragon Hall.
This place was empty, and there was nothing at all.
Wu Yu still lingered in this area for a few days, digging another
300 chi down, but he found nothing.
"It can’t be that someone is toying with me, right? Could that
person not even be in Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory?!"

Wu Yu was a little demoralized.

He sat down and mused quietly. Time was running out.
The others were still fighting for their Dragon Emperor
Immortal Designs.
"There is also a possibility that the Eight Division Heavenly
Dragon Hall is not the place that you have to find. Carry on? I
think that the chances that you’re being toyed with are rather
low."
"How do you know?"
"Because Granny here often has good instincts."
Wu Yu thought about it, took a deep breath, and continued his
systematic search.
He was prepared to comb the whole place again, and leave no
inch of soil in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory unexplored.
And also to avoid tangling with the Tian Ming Dragon Lord
and that bunch, if possible.
Time was running out, and he had basically covered the entire
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory now, without any results.
"Could it be that the clue lies with the Tian Ming Dragon Lord?
"But shouldn’t it be a ‘being?’ Some person or other life form
waiting for me? It wouldn’t be an object, would it?
"Besides, if the Tian Ming Dragon Lord found something, he
would definitely want to ask me what it is and why I’m looking
for it. But he didn’t seem that way."
Wu Yu could not understand what was going on.
Still, time was ticking.
Seven months.
Eight months.
Nine months.
Ten months!
In the 11th month, Wu Yu was still searching. He had covered
virtually the entire Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory twice, and he
was completely familiar with where the Dragon Emperor’s
Prisons were. Many of them still had not been found by the
mystical dragons. And by this time, there were also more
criminals roaming freely.
Some of the stronger ones had already accumulated enough
Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs to buy their freedom.
There was only slightly more than a month left.
From start to finish, Wu Yu had just killed one ghostly
immortal.
He guessed that he was the bottom of the Giant Purgatory
Pillar. Many people might have already gone out, but Wu Yu
had yet to overtake any of them.
Wu Yu’s guess was exactly right. But what he did not know
was that Yu Manyuan was second to last, and Xing Ling was
third to last. Besides, they had already gone out at this time.
There were roughly 200 people on Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield who had already used their Escape Immortal
Designs. Or their Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs had been
taken away, and they had been forced out.
In recent days, more of them were coming out. Even so, Wu Yu
was securely in last place.
Many people came out, and the bottom four Primordial
Immortal Empire challengers remained unchanged. On this
point, the Sky Chariot Dragon King and the others had spent
the entire year laughing.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord was still dominating the chart in
first place. It was rumored that he was already well in the lead.
Even if he came out now, not even second place could catch
up!
In second place was Tian Zi from the Sky Shadow Empire. He
was a Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon, and also an ultimate
mystical dragon.
Third place, Lin Xiaoting from the Sky Will Empire. Mystical
Palace Thunder Dragon.
This ranking was expected.
The stage was already set.
Wu Jun had not spoken for a long time now.
"I hope that Wu Yu can find the person he’s looking for, and
comes out safely." That was all Ye Qianning could wish for
now.
As for their pride, the Primordial Immortal Empire was
screwed this time, beyond the point of salvation. The other
Primordial Immortal Empire dragon kings could not stand it,
and wanted to leave. For example, the Jade Mirror Dragon
Queen.
But her son still could not leave.
In the remaining month, Wu Yu faced a choice. Should he give
up on searching for that being?
Counting down the remaining time from today, a month plus
was not a lot of time.
Looking out at the empty expanse of the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory, many competitors were probably entering their final
burst as they entered the endgame.
No one dared to slack off, because the moment they did, their
ranking might be surpassed by others.
Especially the top four, and top ten.
Throughout the whole Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, Wu Yu
alone amongst all the competitors was not focused on killing
the criminals.
But after more than 10 months, he had still not found the voice.
Wu Yu had to question if the voice even existed.
He felt quite irritated. He had taken the risk of becoming too
high-profile to come to the the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory,
but he had ended up empty-handed.
He had even made Wu Jun, Wu Hao, and even Luo Pin suffer
humiliation.
He recalled how cocky the Tian Ming Dragon Lord was, and
the jeers of the other mystical dragons.
Wu Yu was not at all happy, and those slights lingered in his
mind.
"There’s not much time left now, and I’ve been obvious enough
anyway. Might as well push myself to the limit. I will search
for the voice while taking some pride back for Luo Pin’s
adoptive parents."
He knew that he was in last place, while the other three couldn’t
have placed very well either.
If things concluded this way, then Wu Jun would probably be
unable to lift his head for the next 9,000 years.
And the jeers of those fawning cronies would only grow louder.
As children, one could not bring shame to one’s parents.
They were Luo Pin’s seniors, and therefore also Wu Yu’s
seniors.
Especially Wu Hao. He was truly crushed, but given how
strong his opponent was, he could not retaliate. The Sky Heart
Tribe was the domain of those siblings.
Therefore, Wu Yu felt that since he had not found that voice
yet, and he had also stepped into the spotlight already, he might
as well let all the mystical dragons see him. There was no way
to hide anymore. Might as well go for it in these last moments.
His method was to bring out 100,000 Unshackled
Doppelgangers!
In the murky, yellow fog, Wu Yu changed into the golden
Immortal Ape, and the 100,000 monkey hairs were sent to the
four winds.
Each monkey hair was so small, it was close to invisible. They
were well hidden.
In the mad winds, they blew to every corner of the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory.
There were less than 500 competitors in the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory left. Which meant that Wu Yu’s 100,000
doppelgangers outnumbered them by more than 200 times.
As the golden monkey hairs floated across the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory, they all transformed into Wu Yu!
Instantly, the entire Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory was teeming
with Wu Yus. Wu Yu had already spread them all over.
Each doppelganger was in charge of a certain zone.
Firstly, they would search for the voice and that being.
Secondly, they would also confirm the locations of the Dragon
Emperor’s Prisons! Wu Yu was only targeting 5-Xuan
immortal criminals and above. He was not interested in the
heavenly immortal ones.
While he searched, his body had nothing much that it could do.
Therefore, he decided to spend this last month fighting for his
seniors!
Of course, his goal was to reach the top 10! In that case, Wu
Jun, Wu Hao, and the others could leave with some pride, and
would not be completely disgraced in the Dragon Emperor’s
Supreme Battlefield.
"From this moment on! In the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory!
Out of every 200 people here, there is only one competitor. The
rest are my doppelgangers!"
Wu Yu’s eyes were all over the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
He was extremely confident in the power of his four great
mystiques.
Unshackled Doppelganger was his first Heaven Dao Mystique,
and Wu Yu had far from explored its depths.
He began his search to ascertain the positions of the Dragon
Emperor’s Prisons. Each awaited Wu Yu to go and slay them.
He wanted to get Purgatory Immortal designs!
As Wu Yu’s clones were spreading out across the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory, many of the other competitors had yet to
notice, because of how huge the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory
was.
However, Wu Yu had already seen quite a few other
competitors. Before, he had only sent out 1,000 clones. Now it
was 100,000.
One of his clones spotted Ye Xuanyi.
However, he had been caught.
And those that caught him were a bunch of powerful mystical
dragons. The strongest amongst them was a lavender mystical
dragon. She was beautiful and had an elegant air about her. On
her pale lavender scales, sky palace designs could be seen. Her
horn, fangs, and tail were all extremely elegant, and one look
at her was enough to tell that she was an ultimate mystical
dragon.
Wu Yu recognized her. From the Dragon Emperor Immortal
Design on her dragon horn, this Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon
was doing well in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. It seemed
like she was already confident of her top four position, and
therefore had spare time to toy with Ye Xuanyi.
This girl came from Sky Sky Shadow Empire, and was the
adopted daughter of the Sky Shadow Dragon Queen. Her status
was roughly equal to Lin Xiaoting’s, and she was also a 9-Xuan
immortal with nine immortal dao marks.
Her name was Tian Zi.
To be more accurate, her status was probably a shade higher
than Lin Xiaoting’s, because she had been conferred with the
surname "Tian." [1]
Wu Yu had seen Lin Xiaoting before. Of course, it was a few
months ago, but her Dragon Emperor Immortal Design was
much bigger than Lin Xiaoting’s had been back then.
Around her were many male dragons, drawn to the beauty like
horses in heat.
At this time, the mystical dragons had trapped Ye Xuanyi well
and good, and forced him to eat some jade-green object. He did
not know what it was, but it had a putrid smell.
Evidently, it was nothing good.
"Don’t you dare use your Escape Immortal Design. Otherwise,
we will beat you up every time we find you." The Purple Skies
Empyrean Dragon watched from the side. She did not take a
hand in the action, but watched Ye Xuanyi’s tormented
struggling while she laughed.
The jade-green object was clearly disgusting, and Ye Xuanyi
was crying. But being threatened thus, he did not dare to use
his Escape Immortal Design.
"Lady Tian Zi, have mercy on me! I am not Wu Yu! There is
no meaning in you humiliating me!" Ye Xuanyi wailed.

The Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon smiled slightly. "Who

asked you to belong to the Primordial Immortal Empire? Big
Brother Tian Ming has said that everyone from the Primordial
Immortal Empire will be bullied. I have to make him happy.
When I show Big Brother Tian Ming your current state, he will
probably burst out in laughter."
"Please go and find Wu Yu! I hate Wu Yu too! I have nothing
to do with him! After this Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory ends, I
want to leave the Primordial Immortal Empire!" Ye Xuanyi had
been full of swagger before, but now he had crumbled.
He hated Wu Yu, and the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory that he
had looked forward to so much had now become a nightmare.
"Oh? So you admit that the Primordial Immortal Empire is
trash? Primordial Immortal Dragons are truly disgusting. That
one called Luo Pin who ascended from the mortal domain, she
is filth, repulsive to look at. Is that right?" the Purple Skies
Empyrean Dragon asked with narrowed eyes.
Ye Xuanyi replied, "But of course!"
The Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon laughed. "That’s right. The
one that Big Brother Tian Ming likes is still me. Why would he
pay attention to that filthy bitch? And she even has a mortal
domain husband. Who knows how many times they’ve covertly
done it. That sort of sullied body will not catch Big Brother
Tian Ming’s eye, even if she’s a Primordial Immortal Dragon.
As for the damned tales that a Primordial Divine Dragon and
Primordial Immortal Dragon can give birth to an Ancient Sky
Heart Dragon - even if he believes them, he will not want a
woman who’s already been taken by others. Right?"
Ye Xuanyi hurriedly answered, "That’s definitely right. I see
that Luo Pin and Wu Yu are glued to each other day and night,
and all lovey-dovey. They have spent centuries together even
in the mortal domain, and no one was watching. She is already
a used up husk, and is not a match for the Tian Ming Dragon
Lord. It is Lady Tian Zi who is more divine. Luo Pin is like a
grain of rice compared to the full grace of the moon that you
are!"
The Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon tittered and waved a hand.
"Alright, this kid knows what’s up. Let him go."
One of her followers finally let Ye Xuanyi off.
Ye Xuanyi’s face was pale as he scampered away like a mouse,
fleeing as far as he could.
Wu Yu understood now. So this Purple Skies Empyrean
Dragon wanted to be Tian Ming’s dao companion. But Tian
Ming seemed to believe the tales about the Ancient Sky Heart
Dragon?
After all, his father, the Sky Chariot Dragon King, had eyed Ye
Qianning from the start because she was a Primordial Immortal
Dragon.
However, Wu Yu would never agree.
This was why he hated this bunch of mystical dragons,
including the Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon.
"Continue hunting. Don’t let Lin Xiaoting and Yin Wu
overtake us. I want to fight Big Brother Tian Ming again in the
finals, so I cannot be fourth place," Tian Zi ordered.
The others dispersed, helping her find Dragon Emperor’s
Prisons.
According to the rules, the finals would first see the first and
fourth seeds face off, while the second and third would fight.
And the victors would proceed to the finals.
However, she suddenly spotted Wu Yu at this moment.
"It’s you! Didn’t you use your Escape Immortal Design to leave
the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory? How are you still here?" She
was extremely shaken to see Wu Yu.
Wu Yu’s gaze was flat. "I appeared here to tell you something.
You ugly monster, you reek ugliness from top to bottom. Every
single inch of your body is so repulsive that no one can stand
to look at you. You’re worse than the rotten corpse of a pig.
You slutty bitch, you don’t even deserve to be compared to Luo
Pin. It’s an insult to her to compare the two of you. In all these
years of life, I’ve never come across an uglier woman than
you."
Wu Yu naturally could not stand to see Luo Pin demeaned.
Although he had no way to beat her up right now, he was not
about to let her sit comfy.
"You shut your mouth!" Tian Zi’s face immediately twisted.
Of course, a Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon was strong, a level
higher than Xue Bingyi.
"I overestimated you. Now you’re nothing but a dog’s turd in
my eyes," Wu Yu said smilingly at her.
"Kill him! KILL HIM!" Tian Zi exploded, her face purple.
No matter how furious she was, how merciless she wanted to
be, and how badly she wanted to kill Wu Yu, the one she killed
was just one of Wu Yu’s 100,000 doppelgangers.
"That’s a clone?" The mystical dragons around her were
enlightened. They finally understood why Wu Yu would be so
daring.
"Find him! Find the real body, I’m going to rip him into a
thousand pieces!" the Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon howled
towards the sky.
"But... Are we not hunting other prisoners now?"
"We get him first! I’ll send him to hell!"
"Big Sister Tian Zi, you will fall for his trick if you are enraged.
He’s humiliating you intentionally. You are a million times
more beautiful and powerful than Luo Pin!"
"She’s right. Don’t fall for his trick. He is trying to enrage you
so you will be distracted from hunting prisoners."
The Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon said, "I know. Don’t I
understand it? However, I still want to kill him! No one has
ever dared to humiliate me like him!"
Although she was raging on her end, Wu Yu was too lazy to be
bothered by her. He had started preparing to hunt down his first
prisoner.
His 100,000 doppelgangers were scattered across the entire
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. Basically, most of them had
found the locations of Dragon Emperor’s Prisons. Now they
were just waiting for Wu Yu’s real body to head over for the
kill.
At the same time, he was still searching for that voice.
Wu Yu told the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi about what
happened with the Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon.
"Brother, you are at fault here. Beautiful girls are supposed to
be doted on and loved. Yet you were so crude to her and
described her as the corpse of a wild boar. That’s too brutal."
The Full Moon of Nanshan chuckled.
"No, you were right. That ugly woman dared to insult Big Sister
Luo Pin. She’s a pile of crap, and whoever gets close to her
would stink!"
"Don’t. You guys better not team up to bully the beauty. As
long as she has the looks and is voluptuous, she’s sinless even
if she has committed heinous crimes."
"What if she kills you?" Ye Xixi pouted.
"To die under the skirt of a beautiful girl would still be worth
it. A small brat like you would never understand this."
"What small brat are you speaking of!? Don’t assume I don’t
understand. I’m even older than you, and you should be
addressing me as ‘big sister!’" Ye Xixi answered grudgingly.
While they were quarrelling, Wu Yu had locked on to his first
prey and was ready to strike.
This Dragon Emperor’s Prison was located deep under the sea
trench. It was pitch-black and would be easily neglected by
others. However, when Wu Yu was searching around
previously, he noticed a Dragon Emperor’s Prison in this place.
When he dispatched his doppelganger over to take a look again,
it was still here.
There were still lots of Dragon Emperor’s Prisons hidden
within the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory that had gone
undiscovered.
On the main doors to the prison, one could see the identity,
strength, and sins of the prisoner.
The target Wu Yu had locked on to was at the sixth tier of the
Nine Xuan Dao Realm, or equivalent to a 6-Xuan immortal.
His cultivation level was similar to Xue Bingyi’s.
However, he had cultivated for several yuan. Coupled with the
fact that he was a sinner, his battle strength was even more
frightening.
One huge weakness that these prisoners had was that they were
in bad condition as they had been imprisoned for many years in
this place where immortal qi was scarce.
It would be compelling if they retained 80% of their peak battle
strength.
"Crimson Demon Horned Dragon. Sixth tier of the Nine Xuan
Dao Realm. Cultivated for six yuan. Crime: Traitor of the
mystical dragon tribe and caused the deaths of 23 companions."
Capital punishment awaited the traitors of the mystical dragon
tribe.
Moreover, the betrayal of the Crimson Demon Horned Dragon
had even caused the deaths of 23 companions. This was indeed
not exonerable.
Perhaps because he had heard the commotion outside, the
Crimson Demon Horned Dragon remarked anxiously with his
hoarse voice, "Is someone here? Did someone finally find this
place? Open the door, quickly! I can’t wait a moment longer!
Hurry up! My Purgatory Immortal Design has been waiting for
you for a long time."
Wu Yu had thought that the prisoners were hiding within their
prisons, afraid to be discovered. However, he was wrong. Each
and every prisoner desired to be found. Either they would die
or they could have an opportunity to leave. Otherwise, without
immortal qi for cultivating here, they would only be left with
emptiness and loneliness. It would be worse than death.
"Alright. I’ll give you a chance of survival, then."
Wu Yu opened the doors to the prison with the Dragon Emperor
Immortal Design on his arm. Once he entered, the doors to the
prison slammed shut. Only one of them could exit from this
prison.
It was dimly lit in the place, but it was rather spacious. At one
corner, Wu Yu could see a dragon drenched in blood. The
dragon scales on him were all removed. Perhaps this was a
punishment, or he could have done it to himself.
That crimson mystical dragon lifted his head, smiled tragically,
and said, "Are you surprised? You are right. I did this to myself.
I was very bored and could only remove my scales to count the
days. Only by doing that can I know that a thousand years have
passed and I’ll have the opportunity to leave again."
"The shame is that you are unlucky to run into me."
The other party chuckled. "It doesn’t matter. Dying in battle is
also a form of liberation. This is something you wouldn’t
understand. However, you aren’t a mystical dragon, are you?
This is really, really rare, right?"
"If you want to be liberated, I can grant you a quick death."
The other party cracked up. "Alright. I’ll be direct too. I’ll be
taking your Dragon Emperor Immortal Design!"
The prisoners were in a passive state. They couldn’t choose
their opponents and could only be chosen. Therefore, for battles
within the prisons, prisoners often died or were injured in
battle. To prevent themselves from elimination, most people
would definitely choose those that were weaker than them.
Losing was often the exception.
However, the prisoners were all willing to fight to leave. As
long as they could defeat the first person, they could get out and
choose their opponents.
Wu Yu was tight on time!
At this point, he struck decisively!
"Immortal Cloud Field!"
At the first instant, dense clouds filled the entire prison. The
other party had no place to hide before being surrounded by the
Somersault Cloud.
"Spirit Chaser Art!"
The second attack shocked his spirit!
Before the Crimson Demon Horned Dragon could launch his
attack, he was restricted entirely by Wu Yu. The Spirit Chaser
Art stunted his spirit, and his physical body was plunged into a
swamp.
"100,000 Dragons Immortal Butchering Design!"
Wu Yu darted forward with the Luminary Celestial Dragon
Mantra Sword in his hand.
The Crimson Demon Horned Dragon was ferocious,
experienced in battle, and had an exceptionally strong will.
However, injuries plagued his body and he had limited
immortal energy left. His strength wasn’t even comparable to
Xue Bingyi’s.
Wu Yu attacked relentlessly and ended his life amidst the
blood-red gaze of the Crimson Demon Horned Dragon.

Before the Crimson Demon Horned Dragon passed away, he

said, "I think I’m dying in the hands of an incredible existence.
Your future is limitless. Thank you....
"My brothers, I’m finally liberated. I’m coming to accompany
you all...."
His immortal spirit shattered.
A pitiful person probably had a deplorable side.
Wu Yu had not given up on his initial plan - he devoured the
Crimson Demon Horned Dragon. This was because he knew
that with his current strength, he couldn’t possibly compete
with those elite participants. It had been seven years since he
had devoured anything, so he was starting to feel foreign to
such sensations.
However, the clarity over the last seven years was beneficial to
him. At the very least, it wasn’t easy for him to lose himself
right now. The Crimson Demon Horned Dragon wasn’t going
to make him lose his composure.
His Dragon Emperor Immortal Design absorbed the other
party’s Purgatory Immortal Design. The Purgatory Immortal
Design was crafted into one’s immortal spirit. Wu Yu had to
kill him to get it.
He wasn’t in a hurry to get out of this Dragon Emperor’s Prison.
Instead, he stayed within to digest everything that belonged to
the 6-Xuan immortal. Truth be told, the essences of blood and
flesh were extremely bountiful. Moreover, after cultivating for
six yuan, his six immortal dao marks were especially solid and
vast!
The most important thing for Wu Yu was to dissect the daos
and convert them for his use. He could then see and think from
the perspective of the Crimson Demon Horned Dragon.
Now that he had completed the Nine Aspects of the Venerable
Buddha and the Bodhi Immortal Dao Art to reach the pinnacle
of the Longevity Immortal Realm, it was time for him to form
his first immortal dao mark.
For most people, the first dao would be the dao that one
cultivated in the mortal domain. What was the dao that Wu Yu
had cultivated in the mortal domain? This was something that
he was pondering.
In the past, he couldn’t understand. However, he had devoured
multiple immortal dao marks and integrated their experiences
to see from their perspectives. Now that he had also devoured
an existence like the Crimson Demon Horned Dragon, who had
formed six immortal dao marks, the combined experiences
made developing his first immortal dao mark a simple task.
Wu Yu was in a metamorphosis of cultivation levels.
From being a heavenly immortal with extended longevity and
immortal energy to a Xuan immortal who was beginning to be
enlightened with dao. At this very moment, all the immortal
dao marks he had devoured previously were of great aid to him.
Today, he digested the immortal dao marks from the Crimson
Demon Horned Dragon.
In his mind, he recollected his life in the mortal domain. With
the shrapnels of a large number of immortal dao marks
assisting, a special state of mind was gradually forming in him.
His dao was tough like gold and couldn’t be torched with
intense fire. His resolve to become an immortal had never
wavered.
However, his dao was also like a torch of raging flame,
unvanquishable and inextinguishable. Not only did he have the
resilience and toughness of gold, he also had the passion, the
battle will, and the determination to resist like a raging and
inextinguishable flame.
His life wasn’t just gold or fire, but the fusion of gold and fire.
Therefore, Wu Yu could see a golden self that was bathing in
raging flames. He could finally see what his first immortal dao
mark was!
"The Dao of Gold and Fire!"
Gradually, it became clearer in his mind.
And the clarity was the most important step of all.
His first immortal dao mark was the fusion of shrapnel from a
large number of immortal dao marks. However, the impurities
were purged by Wu Yu before integrating into the most
important aspect of his will. Within his sea of knowledge, a
raging, gold-like immortal dao mark was formed and fused
with his immortal spirit.
His immortal spirit resembled the Heaven Devouring Titanic
Beast a little more, but it didn’t matter.
His first immortal dao mark was formed! All of a sudden, the
countless Bodhi Seeds within his immortal spirit turned gold
and shined with even greater brilliance. It was clear that they
could hold even more Bodhi immortal energy! After devouring
the Crimson Demon Horned Dragon, the boundless energy that
was extracted converted into Bodhi immortal energy and
entered the seeds! This greatly strengthened him.
Finally, he entered the Nine Xuan Dao Realm. Although he was
just a 1-Xuan immortal, Wu Yu had powered up considerably.
The limits of his battle strength had definitely soared!
However, this wasn’t the end for Wu Yu’s changes. He had an
abundance of fragments of immortal dao marks. They were
basically complete, and when Wu Yu gathered them together,
he could already see his second immortal dao mark!
In his mind, many scenes of battle merged together.
He was someone who liked to fight. Ever since he acquired the
Ruyi Jingu Bang, he had continued to grow stronger through
battle.
All of the battles, including the battles of the Xuan immortals
that he had devoured, and the Crimson Demon Horned
Dragon’s battles, all of them merged together.
With his battle will as the nucleus, they again converged to
form a new immortal dao mark!
"The Dao of Battle!"
Battle was also dao. When one brought fighting to its peak
potential, it would become a form of will, a fighting spirit that
was a dao.
Wu Yu’s synthesization of his experiences formed the second
immortal dao mark in his Sea of Knowledge: the Dao of Battle.
The Dao of Battle was neither fire nor gold. It was intangible.
You could neither see it nor touch it, but this fierce will was
clearly present in his immortal spirit, strengthening it. His
Bodhi Seeds also grew considerably, like a sky full of stars
within his immortal spirit.
Although Wu Yu did not have enough power to fill these Bodhi
Seeds right now, with so many clones, he had already realized
much of the Crimson Demon Horned Dragon’s goal!
He had entered the 2-Xuan immortal realm. Such speed was
both miraculous and frightening! But all of this had happened
in Dragon Emperor’s Prison, and no one had noticed it.
"Actually, I should have just not gone to seek the voice from
the start, I should have focused on growing stronger. If I had
done this earlier, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord would not be my
match."
Of course, it was not too late to start now.
He and the Primordial Immortal Empire were considered
uninfluential, and it was not a bad choice to remain low-profile.
But if the Sky Chariot Dragon King wanted to mess with them
and ridicule them, then Wu Yu had no choice. He could
definitely grow strong very suddenly, but this would bring its
own set of problems. Except right now, he didn’t care. He was
not willing to see Wu Hao and the others leave the Dragon
Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield frustrated and helpless.
He was just preparing to stand up and continue advancing.
Suddenly, the Ruyi Jingu Bang trembled, then a beam of golden
light entered his immortal spirit.
"Invincible Vajra Body eighth tier! Dragon and Elephant Prajna
Buddha Body!"
Even before he searched for it, the Ruyi Jingu Bang had already
given him the eighth tier of the Invincible Vajra Body directly.
Above the Vairocana Vajra Buddha Body, there was the Nine
Aspects of the Venerable Buddha. And above the Nine Aspects
of the Venerable Buddha was the Dragon and Elephant Prajna
Buddha Body.
Wu Yu had already guessed that Vajra buddha energy, like
immortal energy, would continue to strengthen and expand.
His immortal dao marks had expanded the holding capacity of
his Bodhi Seeds, strengthening his immortal energy.
As for his Invincible Vajra Body, although it created buddha
energy alone and synthesized it within his body, there would
surely be ways for it to continue growing stronger.
He had originally thought that there would be something in the
Nine Xuan Dao Realm that was similar to immortal dao marks
that would help his buddha energy grow stronger and also hold
dao. But it was not so.
The Dragon and Elephant Prajna Buddha Body skirted around
the dao. It was not concerned with dao, but with strengthening
the physical body.
The sixth tier, the Vairocana Vajra Buddha Body, had made the
particles of his body into vajra buddhas.
The seventh tier, the Nine Aspects of the Venerable Buddha,
had opened nine aspect realms within his vajra buddhas and
developed his buddha energy.
As for the eighth tier, the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Buddha
Body, Wu Yu had gained a brief insight into it. It seemed to
"divide" his vajra buddhas into dragons and elephants.
Eventually, each particle’s vajra buddha would be divided into
nine dragons and nine elephants. His nine aspect realms would
each go through nine divisions, until they formed 512 aspect
realms![1]
The first step of the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Buddha Body
was to divide the vajra buddha particles in his body. From one
to two, forming a dragon and elephant!
Wu Yu could vaguely sense that the Invincible Vajra Body was
not actually a body refining art. Instead, it was something
outside the ken of immortals, a second type of cultivation art.
Perhaps demon immortals, ghostly immortals, immortals, and
immortal beasts were all actually one type of cultivation art,
and this Invincible Vajra Body was something else altogether!
For example, at this time, it stood completely independent of
his dao, opening a new way of refining his body.
Therefore, he sat down to carefully study it, in no hurry to
leave. At his current level of insight, the Dragon and Elephant
Prajna Buddha Body did not seem especially difficult.
At least that was how it started off.
There were a total of 1,000 words.
Wu Yu started to work on the first 100, and then 200.
The nine aspect realms required a starter. However, the eighth
tier did not. Instead, it demanded an even more elevated level
of comprehension and understanding.
To understand what the nature of the dragon and elephant were.
Put simply, dragons and elephants were symbols of "strength"
in Buddhism.
The symbolic images of dragons and elephants were merely
representations of strength, and had nothing to do with actual
mystical dragons or elephants.
One vajra buddha, divided into the two manifestations of
dragon and elephant.
He had to divide the countless vajra buddhas in his body. This
would be a complicated process.
Therefore, although there were only 100 words, they each held
great weight, and were not easy to understand.
Wu Yu worked his way through each one. He was very talented
in this aspect, and now he could also consider problems through
the experiences and perspectives of many people, especially
mystical dragons. They had a greater understanding of the
dragons in the dragon symbols. After all, they were modeled
after them.
"Dragon and Elephant.
"Prajna Buddha Body?"
Wu Yu was lost in his own world.
He needed to take the first step.
"I see it now."
Luckily, he had the insight of the Crimson Demon Horned
Dragon, who had had six yuan of time, or more than 700,000
years, to consider these problems. His level was not something
that Wu Yu could hope to compare with.
Therefore, after a long process of brain work, Wu Yu finally
understood it.
"Divide in order to store even more buddha energy. Although
on the whole it does not look like much, my body is actually
being reinforced through each division.
"At the ninth tier, after it is divided nine times, I will still be the
same size as I was before, but my strength and buddha energy
will have increased by more than 500 times, and perhaps even
more!”
He began to work on it.
He had to go into every particle, starting from the head of the
vajra buddhas, and split them into two. The left half would twist
into a dragon, and would be filled with a dominating strength.
The right half would form a sturdy elephant that warred against
the dragon. This would elevate its depth and allow it to hold
even more power.
The mutual support between dragon and elephant.
This was not just a simple division of particles, but more - a
metamorphosis of the entire body, a significant process that
would transform the entire body into a symbiosis of mystical
dragon and giant elephant. Wu Yu’s physical strength would
also increase to a terrifying new level!
He now desperately needed buddha energy!
Swish, crackle! Swish, crackle!
Within his body, golden light madly rebounded everywhere,
sparking with all sorts of sounds. His entire body was
transforming. There were billions of mystical dragons and
elephants in his body!
Wu Yu bellowed a titanic roar that shook even the entire
Dragon Emperor’s Prison. It had both the savage ferocity of the
mystical dragon as well as the rumbling depth of the elephant.

Whether dragon or elephant, they were strength incarnate. This

was an important note. If one was simply preoccupied with the
forms of a dragon and an elephant, then the intricacies of the
immortality art would elude them. It was otherwise unthinkable
- how could an elephant compare to a mystical dragon?
That would be a misconception!
After Wu Yu divided out his first dragon and elephant, he
reached the first tier. He was not satisfied. He still had more
understanding, because the first part was the hardest. He
continued to divide, using the trunk of the elephant to rip the
limbs of the mystical dragon into two! At the same time, he
used the dragon fangs to tear the elephant in half!
One dragon into two!
One elephant into two!
What was torn apart was then put together anew.
He successfully reached the second level of the Invincible
Vajra Body’s eighth tier.
What had been one vajra buddha before was now two dragons
and two elephants. Of course, each dragon and elephant formed
a pair that existed in perfect balance.
This was as if Wu Yu had two second tier Nine Xuan Dao
Realm bodies. At this time, if he only had enough buddha
energy, he could make these dragons and elephants glow even
brighter, and his strength would be even more terrifying.
Wu Yu had reached an even higher cultivation level!
For now, he could not break through any further in terms of
immortal dao marks. He could not ascertain what his third mark
would be.
As for the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Buddha Body, that was
another type of difficulty. From one to two, two to four. It was
not easy to continue amassing dragon and elephant pairs within
a fixed body. Besides, the subsequent tearing methods and
reconstitution methods would be completely different from
before, so it was not easy for Wu Yu to reach the third level
immediately.
But when he opened his eyes anew in the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory, everything was different. Whether his physical body
or immortal spirit, they had gone through huge transformations.
He was both an immortal and not like an immortal. His body
was too awesome, and no immortal had his physique, not even
immortal beasts.
Compared to his vajra buddhas before, Wu Yu’s current body
was like a primordial immortal beast. It was even more
fearsome than the immovable, passive mountain that it had
been before. Each breath he took was the breath of billions of
mystical dragons and elephants. His gaze and aura crushed
everything. Even mystical dragon immortal beasts such as the
ultimate mystical dragons would have to recognize his power.
As for the Bodhi Seeds in his immortal spirit, they were also
powerful, and as plentiful as stars in the universe. They were
no weaker than his physical body.
Wu Yu was very satisfied with his current state. But what he
needed was dragon and elephant buddha energy and Bodhi
immortal energy. That would make his fighting power even
greater.
Therefore, he needed to continue hunting!
It was regrettable that he still could not hunt down the voice.
He could only use the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory as an
opportunity to make himself stronger faster! At the same time,
he would allow Wu Hao and the others to be able to leave the
Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield with their heads held
high. As for that voice, if he could not find it with his 100,000
doppelgangers in the remaining one month, then that was fate.
As for Wu Yu, he continued to fight and devour!
His 100,000 doppelgangers were like 100,000 helpers, which
no one else had.
Actually, his guess was spot on. Wu Hao and the others were
indeed in a tough spot.
Especially Ye Xuanyi. He had also been forced out with his
Escape Immortal Design, and his ranking was fixed at fourth
from the bottom. It could not possibly change.
Yu Manyuan, Xing Ling, and Ye Xuanyi had left. They saw
that they were second, third, and fourth from last!
"It’s all Wu Yu’s fault! If not, we would not be in such a bad
spot! How shameful!" Yu Manyuan bawled.
Xing Ling said listlessly, "I’m doomed. I’ll be laughed at for
the rest of my life...."
Ye Xuanyi was also pale. He was the most miserable, because
he should not be at this rank. He looked at last place with
hatred.
Last place, Primordial Immortal Empire, Wu Yu. Five words
that were a pain in the eye to look at.
Ever since Ye Xuanyi’s exit, the Sky Chariot Dragon King had
been laughing non-stop.
With the exit of Ye Xuanyi, it was almost certain that the four
participants of the Primordial Immortal Empire would occupy
the bottom four positions.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King was naturally delighted to see
this.
Despite many years having passed, he was still filled with
hatred at the thought of the incident that happened many years
ago.
If fratricidal fighting wasn’t restricted, Wu Hao would
definitely not be alive today.
At their age, they would be competing with their children.
It was clear to all who was better then.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King smiled and said,
"Congratulations to the Primordial Immortal Empire for
breaking a record and accomplishing a great feat that not a
single empire throughout the mystical dragon tribe has ever
completed. To rank in the top four, but starting from the back!
Haha...."
With the Sky Chariot Dragon King taking the lead, the mocking
laughter came crashing like a deluge.
This great feat was indeed hard to accomplish.
"How bad is the younger generation of the Primordial Immortal
Empire to have such results?"
"It’s painstaking to see this. What has Wu Jun been doing these
years to raise the younger generation to this state?"
"Unbelievable!"
"It’s hilarious! With their younger generation at this level, I
believe it won’t be long before the Primordial Immortal Empire
drops from 87th to 100th."
"Once Wu Jun is gone, the Primordial Immortal Empire will
likely stop existing."
The dragon kings paid no regard to the face of Wu Jun and the
rest and started discussing unbridledly.
Wu Hao had enough.
If his gentle and understanding girl wasn’t with him, a man like
him would never be able to take this great shame.
"Once this trial ends, we can only hide within the Primordial
Immortal Empire and never be able to lift our heads up high!"
Wu Hao remarked dejectedly.
Wu Jun’s face turned green as he seethed.
The dragon kings under him were wavering too. They were
probably thinking of leaving the Primordial Immortal Empire
to find a place where they wouldn’t be shamed.
It wasn’t a huge thing initially, as the Primordial Immortal
Empire was in a transition phase between generations. It was
understandable that the youths weren’t strong, as Ye Xuanyi
and others weren’t particularly old.
However, the key was that the Sky Chariot Dragon King was
constantly targeting the Primordial Immortal Empire.
Otherwise, with Ye Xuanyi’s strength, he wouldn’t be among
the bottom four.
"As we discussed, as long as Wu Yu can find what he needs,
the rest is just superficial." Ye Qianning consoled Wu Hao.
Just as she finished her words, the Sky Chariot Dragon King
looked over from the other end. He chuckled and said, "Wu
Hao, you have to work hard yourself. Don’t hold up the
younger generation because of your incompetence. If those
three kids join my Sky Chariot Empire, they definitely won’t
have such results again. Now, I’ll make an exception and accept
them. I wonder, are you guys willing?"
A great opportunity!
The Luminary Dragon King, the Jade Mirror Dragon Queen,
and the Interstellar Domain Dragon King exchanged glances,
stood up, and said in unison, "Thank you, Sky Chariot Dragon
King, for your invitation. Once the trial ends, we will bring our
descendants to join the Sky Chariot Empire immediately and
serve the Sky Chariot Empire." The crowd burst into an uproar.
None of them had expected the three of them to have an
encounter like this so suddenly. It was almost impossible for
other dragon kings to join the Sky Chariot Empire even if they
wished, because there were simply too many of them. The
Revered Dragon Council would also step in to restrict them, so
as to maintain the balance of the Hundred Empires.
Ye Xuanyi and the rest finally had something to be delighted
over. They could finally leave the damning Primordial
Immortal Empire!
For Wu Jun and others, this was humiliation and a blow.
"In that case, of the bottom four, three of them will be under
my Sky Chariot Empire. You guys only have one. In a way,
your Primordial Immortal Empire didn’t do too badly this time!
Haha!" The Sky Chariot Dragon King continued his ridicule.
This drew another burst of laughter. This time, the Sky Chariot
Dragon King had found the right opportunity to humiliate Wu
Hao utterly, quenching the hatred in him.
However, at this very moment, the last position on the Giant
Purgatory Pillar had surprisingly changed to: Primordial
Immortal Empire, Yu Manyuan.
Roughly one-quarter of all names dropped by a single position,
and Ye Xuanyi became third from the bottom.
"Why did Wu Yu’s name vanish?" The crowd was stumped.
"It’s there! 438th!"
At that moment, the crowd looked in the same direction
simultaneously. Indeed, they saw Wu Yu’s name at 438th.
Silence filled the air.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King was still mocking Wu Hao by
claiming that last place would still belong to the Primordial
Immortal Empire after accepting Ye Xuanyi and the rest just
moments ago. However, Wu Yu had vanished from the bottom
just as he completed his words.
This was like a slap that came at the right time and ferociously
hit the face of the Sky Chariot Dragon King. It was so clear that
almost everyone on the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield
had heard it.
Therefore, the Sky Chariot Dragon King turned stiff for some
moments.
As for Wu Hao, he burst into hearty laughter after seeing Wu
Yu’s name.
How gratifying!
"I’m starting to like that kid even more. He’s always able to
bring us a pleasant surprise when we are feeling the worst!" Wu
Hao finally smiled and felt gratification like he never had
before.
Wu Jun also chuckled. "It seems like the Sky Chariot Dragon
King has failed this time. Now the bottom four have nothing to
do with my Primordial Immortal Empire. The Sky Chariot
Empire took the bottom three. That’s worthy of a celebration!"
This time, the Sky Chariot Dragon King had shot himself in the
foot and looked especially gloomy.
The change that Wu Yu had brought was on point. The Sky
Chariot Dragon King was so full of confidence that he had
recruited Ye Xuanyi and the rest to humiliate Wu Jun’s brother,
but this change doused shame on the Sky Chariot Dragon King
instead.
"How dare you!" The Sky Chariot Dragon King was enraged.
"Alright! Stop your annoying quarrelling and babbling! It’s
going to end soon. Can’t you guys be quiet?" The Sky Shadow
Dragon Queen interjected.
"It ends right here." The Sky Will Dragon King wouldn’t want
to embarrass himself before the two revered dragons. After all,
the other eight tribes were watching too.
However, the Sky Chariot Dragon King still couldn’t suppress
his anger.
"Wu Yu’s ranking hasn’t changed before. Why would it move
so suddenly?" He was sceptical about it.
The crowd couldn’t understand why Wu Yu’s ranking had
changed either.
Only Wu Jun and them knew that Wu Yu might have gotten
what he was looking for and was going on a killing spree.
Although it was too late to work hard now, it was clear that Wu
Yu was fighting for respect for Wu Hao.
"That kid is really great. Luo Pin is blessed to be with him,"
said Ye Qianning as she nodded.
Luo Pin smiled gently. She had never panicked, because she
knew Wu Yu would never let her down.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King’s eyes were fixed on the Giant
Purgatory Pillar.
From the second day of the trial, Tian Ming was securely
placed first. Right now, the distance between him and the
second place was substantial.
As long as Tian Ming was in the top four, he wouldn’t be
worried. This was because Tian Ming was the only one at the
Immortal Lord Realm. Once it reached the final battles, no one
would win against him.
The second was still the Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon, Tian
Zi. She was the adopted daughter of the Sky Shadow Dragon
Queen.
The third was the Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon, Lin
Xiaoting. He was the adopted son of the Sky Will Dragon King.
What comforted him was that his other adopted son, the Nine
Heavens Silver Blade Dragon, Yin Wu, had made his way to
the top five from outside the top ten. With a month left, he
might just make it into the top four!
The Sky Chariot Dragon King assumed that Tian Ming had
helped Yin Wu after knowing that he had secured first place.
Judging by Yin Wu’s ascension pace, it would be a safe bet.
The top four would be covered by the three empires.
Obviously, this was the case almost every time.
.................

.................
Just as the Sky Chariot Dragon King had expected, within the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory and amidst the dullish-yellow
mist, a silver mystical dragon was following the Primordial
Divine Dragon, Tian Ming. The scales of the silver mystical
dragon were shockingly shaped like blades. In fact, they could
stand erected, covering his body in sharp spikes.
On his dragon horn, the Dragon Emperor Immortal Design was
roughly half the size of Tian Ming’s Dragon Emperor Immortal
Design.
"Big Brother Tian Ming, do you think I can make it into the top
four?" Yin Wu wasn’t too confident.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord answered, "Don’t worry. I saw
Lin Xiaoting and Tian Zi previously. You are approaching their
level now. With me helping you for the last burst, you might
even be second or third, let alone fourth."
"I am really grateful to Big Brother Tian Ming." Yin Wu bowed
constantly.
"You should thank my father. He really doted on you and
instructed me to help you," said Tian Ming.
"You are right. The gratitude I owe to my adoptive father is as
great as a mountain. He’s my second father and my life belongs
to him. I’m willing to do anything for him in the future," Yin
Wu said passionately.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord smiled. He wanted a "brother" that
respected and revered him. Yin Wu had great talent. Helping
him to get into the top four and gain the opportunity to cultivate
in the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn would allow him to have a
bright future.
"Let’s continue!"
He led Yin Wu around and continued their search.
"Isn’t that Wu Yu?"
All of a sudden, Yin Wu saw a figure.
"What? Didn’t he flee with his Escape Immortal Design?" The
Tian Ming Dragon Lord had seen him too.
Both of them gave chase and indeed found Wu Yu!
"You haven’t left? How did you get out of my City of 10,000
Swords and Dragons?" The Tian Ming Dragon Lord was
astonished.
Wu Yu didn’t answer him and kept a smiling face.
"Are you mute? Can’t you talk?" Anger was building up in Tian
Ming.
"Screw you! Fool!" Wu Yu responded with a faint smile.
"Go to hell!" Yin Wu abhorred those that disrespected the Sky
Chariot Dragon King. Without needing the Tian Ming Dragon
Lord to instruct him, he struck. However, when his attack
reached Wu Yu, Wu Yu’s body shattered!
"A clone?" Yin Wu was stumped.
He was surprised that he couldn’t tell that it was a clone.
"His clone came all the way here?"
Tian Ming was feeling a little suspicious.
"Perhaps he’s in the vicinity." Tian Ming and Yin Wu Yu
extended their search area. Just as they expected, they saw Wu
Yu again soon after.
However, that was also a clone!
They continued but kept finding more clones!
This left them frustrated.
"Where did Wu Yu get all these clones? And none of them
speak?"
The truth was that Wu Yu was just too lazy to answer them. He
was still fighting, and his clones were constantly encountering
other participants. He had even met Lin Xiaoting and Xue
Bingyi multiple times, let alone Tian Ming.
He had no time or energy to speak to them.
He was now in a frenzied state. The pace of his battles couldn’t
match the speed he was discovering Dragon Emperor’s Prisons.
Wu Yu was basically shifting from one position to another at
break-neck speed.
As for his target, they were at least opponents with seven
immortal dao marks.
One opponent of this level was equivalent to 100 heavenly
immortals!
He continued killing for 10 days.
The opponents that Wu Yu chose were basically all extremely
vicious criminals who had committed heinous crimes.
There were many more of such criminals who committed even
worse crimes than the Crimson Demon Horned Dragon.
And instead of being afraid, they were all very excited when
Wu Yu opened their Dragon Emperor’s Prisons.
That was because they would rather die in battle than die alone
of old age in this prison.
A few days ago, Wu Yu had decided to devour a few of his
opponents.
Those that he devoured were all expert immortals and mystical
dragons who had eight immortal dao marks and many years of
experience in cultivation.
First of all, he filled up all his Bodhi Seeds and dragon and
elephant buddha energy.
But Wu Yu was still not satisfied with what he had achieved in
these 10 days. He continued to understand and analyze the
experiences of those he devoured. Using what he learned, his
Dragon and Elephant Prajna Buddha Body divided once again,
reaching the third level.
The once Vajra Buddha had already transformed into four
dragons and four elephants.
Then, through devouring, he would increase his dragon and
elephant buddha energy.
After a few more days of battle, Wu Yu formed his third
immortal dao mark, the Dao of the Physical Body.
Wu Yu had cultivated the Invincible Vajra Body, so he
understood more about the physical body than others,
especially when he could devour and digest his opponents. This
immortal dao mark was formed through the combination of his
devouring and cultivation of his body.
Of course, inside his Dao of the Physical Body, there were also
many top experts’ experiences and pieces of their immortal dao
marks.
If not for these top experts’ experiences and immortal dao
marks, Wu Yu would not have been able to form his third
immortal dao mark that quickly. An ordinary genius would still
require thousands of years to form one immortal dao mark. And
one with normal talent would require tens of thousands of
years.
Both of his cultivation levels had already reached the third tier
of the Nine Xuan Dao Realm, hence Wu Yu started to search
and kill the strongest existences in the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory, 9-Xuan immortals.
There were no beings stronger than 9-Xuan immortals in here.
However, he could not devour any more in the remaining 20
days of the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory Trial.
He had already gathered a large amount of energy from his
devouring before. Even with three immortal dao marks
suppressing the spirit within, his immortal spirit had
transformed into the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast
completely.
The Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast was bloodthirsty and
hungry. Now Wu Yu was a bit like the time when he was
pursuing the Ancient Emperor - he hungered to devour and
mate. There was even a moment when his real body nearly lost
control when he saw Tian Zi.
He would be in deep trouble if Luo Pin saw that.
So he had to control himself now. He stopped devouring for the
meantime and killed his opponents directly.
But then there was one interesting change that Wu Yu
discovered. After the Heaven Devouring Avatar and his real
body were combined, he could disperse the extra energy that he
did not need from the devouring to his 100,000 dopplegangers.
"If I can do that, each of my 100,000 doppelgangers will have
the strength of a heavenly immortal! And they can still become
stronger! Next time, I can just disperse the extra energy that I
cannot digest to them. There is no need for me to spend fortunes
to cultivate them anymore."
With that extra energy, his 100,000 doppelgangers became
more agile. They became faster and their battle power
increased. When hundreds of them gathered, they could even
fight against a Xuan immortal. Based on Wu Yu’s current
strength, he alone could form an army of immortals.
In the future, he might have an army of a million immortals.
In the remaining 20 days, Wu Yu was still pushing forward. He
did not know how far he could go. His doppelgangers were
already all over the whole Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, but he
still could not find that being. In any case, he would just use the
rest of the time to earn back the honor that the Primordial
Immortal Empire and Wu Jun deserved!
After all, Wu Yu now had another goal, which was to battle 9-
Xuan immortals.
Of course, he did not let his guard down. He let his
doppelgangers continue their search for that being in the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, while his real body was engaged
in continuous battles.
The Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory was indeed a rare
opportunity for Wu Yu to train and cultivate. At least his power
and strength had increased by many folds.
If not for his inability to devour further, Wu Yu could even
reach the level where he could fight against an Immortal Lord
Realm expert.
...............
In fact, Wu Yu was not aware that what he had done had not
only earned back Wu Jun’s honor, but caused the audience that
was watching their performance in the Supreme Battlefield to
be in total shock.
Now everyone’s focus was not on whether Yin Wu in fifth
place could surpass Jiang Yan in fourth place, but on how far
Wu Yu could progress in this remaining month.
The mystical dragons watched on with their own eyes as Wu
Yu’s name moved up progressively from the top 500. Every
now and then, his ranking would move upwards. The speed of
his progress was indeed shocking to them.
Those that had been forced out of the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory could only watch helplessly as Wu Yu’s ranking
surpassed theirs.
Within 10 days, Wu Yu’s ranking moved upwards from the top
500 to the top 100! There were 20 days remaining, and he was
already in 73rd place.
Based on his speed, people started to wonder if he could reach
the top 10 in the end.
"If he had participated from the start and not just in this last
month, wouldn’t he be already in the top 10?"
The audience knew clearly that Wu Yu had only started to kill
prisoners in this last month.
In the mystical dragons’ eyes, Wu Yu was like a monster now.
Looking into the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory from the Eye of
the Dragon Emperor, one could only see Wu Yu’s
doppelgangers.
"He must have depended on his large number of
doppelgangers! They must have increased his efficiency in
searching for the Dragon Emperor’s Prisons!"
"Then why did he not use them before?"
"Maybe he was making a breakthrough in his cultivation level
inside the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, or he was trying to
keep a low profile before?"
"Anyway, it’s very weird. I feel that he might have some means
to hide his strength. I think there is an elite immortal backing
him. This means that the immortal gave him something to hide
his strength, so even the Sky Will Dragon King and the other
dragon kings didn’t see it."
"I guess so. If he didn’t have so many doppelgangers, his speed
would not be this fast."
"Do you think he can make it to the top 10?"
"There are 20 days left. However the higher the ranking, the
bigger the gap will be. So, everything is still unpredictable."
At this moment, no matter what the others were discussing, the
Sky Chariot Dragon King was sitting there silently. His face
was grim as he stared at Wu Yu’s name.
"Little brother, it seems like this legacy inheritor of an elite
immortal is indeed not as simple as we imagined. Wu Hao is
lucky to have him," the Sky Shadow Dragon Queen said.
"It’s too early to make any conclusions. Let’s watch till the
end." The Sky Chariot Dragon King smiled coldly. He still did
not think that Wu Yu could reach the top 10 within one month.
If that were the case, and if Wu Yu had participated in killing
the prisoners from the start, wouldn’t he be in first place?
But when he saw Wu Jun and Wu Hao’s smiling faces, he was
not happy. He had humiliated them before, but now Wu Yu’s
performance was like a tight slap to his face. Every time Wu
Yu progressed upwards in the rankings, his face got slapped
once!
For instance, Ye Xuanyi and his companions’ faces were also
hot with shame now. They had just abandoned the Primordial
Immortal Empire, but now the names of the Primordial
Immortal Empire and Wu Yu had shocked the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm.
The mystical dragons stopped their discussions and held their
breaths as they continued to watch.
..................
The number of 9-Xuan immortals in the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory was not high, and it was very hard to kill them. One
would have to go through a series of life and death battles, and
the efficiency was not as good as that of fighting 8-Xuan
immortals.
Wu Yu continued to progress. He did not have much time left.
Now all he wanted to do was try his best.

Another 10 days passed by!

There were only 10 days left!
The Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast’s immortal spirit had
already transformed halfway back into human form after
undergoing 10 days of the Ruyi Jingu Bang’s supression.
Wu Yu made a decision at this point. "I shall take advantage of
the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. Since the prisoners here are
all sinful villains who are waiting for death, I can devour one
more time."
He was a little bit annoyed by Tian Ming. If he could have the
strength to fight against him before going out, he would at least
have a bit of advantage. Otherwise, that guy would definitely
fight him for Luo Pin again.
This was something Wu Yu would not allow to happen.
But the other party did have noble status and power. Wu Yu
had not seen the power of an Immortal Lord Realm cultivator
before.
He started devouring again. This time, his target was ninth tier
Nine Xuan Dao Realm enemies, 9-Xuan immortals!
The change was to devour instead of kill.
Two days later, with the experience and comprehension
abilities of three 9-Xuan immortals, his Dragon and Elephant
Prajna Buddha Body reached the fourth tier.
Another three days passed. Based on his use of the Unshackled
Doppelganger, in addition to the experiences of the other Xuan
immortals, he formed his fourth immortal dao mark, the Dao of
Doppelgangers!
He became a real 4-Xuan immortal, and it was on two levels.
His bodhi immortal energy and dragon and elephant buddha
energy were overflowing with power and close to exploding.
He had five days left until the final dash.
At this moment, his immortal spirit once again transformed
fully into the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast. It was
extremely fierce, and Wu Yu’s killing intent escalated again.
"My only regret is that I failed to find that voice."
He knew clearly that he had become extremely strong. With his
power now, he could kill a ninth tier Nine Xuan Dao Realm
immortal instantaneously.
And he had not been an immortal for that long yet.
Thanks to the Ancient Emperor, his two bodies were combined.
Today, he could display the unimaginable.
This was something he had gained from the Ancient Emperor
incident. He was no longer a simple Heaven Devouring Titanic
Beast, nor the legacy inheritor of the Great Sage, Heaven’s
Equal.
He was like an unforeseen, terrifying existence in the Heavenly
Domain.
Wu Yu continued his killing. He was very calm throughout. In
the remaining five days, everyone in the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory was making the final dash.
In fact, Wu Yu did not know that because of his performance,
the audience outside was struck with fright!
Within 10 days, Wu Yu had actually progressed rapidly from
the top 100 to 12th place. His speed left everyone in shock and
fear.
His Dragon Emperor Immortal Design had already grown to an
unimaginable strength, and he was close to the Tower of
Dragon’s Dawn.
And it was when there were still 10 days left!
At this moment, the mystical dragons could not help but gasp
in shock. Basically, they could confirm now that Wu Yu would
definitely enter the top 10.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King’s expression was really grim at
this time. On the other side, Wu Hao could not help but laugh.
As the saying goes, change is the only constant, the wheel of
fortune turns. People who used to laugh at them in the past had
laughed too early.
Even the Sky Will Dragon King said, "Wu Jun, looks like the
immortal backing Wu Yu is indeed extraordinary."
"At least you and I will never be able to reach such levels," Wu
Jun replied.
Naturally, they wouldn’t believe that Wu Yu had grown
stronger along the way.
They would assume he had relied on some unknown method to
conceal his strength previously.
It was only now that he unleashed his full strength.
The truth was, Wu Jun himself was surprised. He had never
expected Wu Yu to put on such a performance.
He had a rough sense about Wu Yu’s strength previously. For
Wu Yu to advance through the rankings so ferociously in the
last month, it was clear that Wu Yu was hunting 8-Xuan
immortals, or even stronger existences....
However, Wu Yu wasn’t capable of such previously.
He could only keep his doubts with him and couldn’t share with
others. The only reason he could come up with was similar to
what others had assumed - Wu Yu had been hiding his strength
because of that immortal.
The mystical dragon tribe was indeed wary of the immortal
behind Wu Yu.
After all, this was a world controlled by immortals.
However, something unexpected occurred again!
With 10 days left, Wu Yu stopped moving on the leaderboard.
It was the same for the ninth and eighth day.
With only eight days left, many mystical dragons couldn’t help
but be delighted.
"It seems like Wu Yu still isn’t fated to enter our Tower of
Dragon’s Dawn."
"If he had worked hard from the beginning, he could have even
made it to the top four. However, time doesn’t wait for anyone.
Those in the top 10 have been working their asses off."
"To see him soar through the rankings and yet not make the top
10, what a shame!"
And for the Sky Chariot Dragon King, he felt a little more
assured.
To the surprise of the crowd, when there were only seven days
left, Wu Yu fell down a spot! This was the first time his ranking
had ever dropped and was surpassed by someone!
This suggested that Wu Yu didn’t seem to be moving over the
last few days.
"Is he giving up?" The Sky Chariot Dragon King was a little
anxious. However, he was still confident as time was slipping
past.
The truth was, even if Wu Yu made it to the top 10, it wouldn’t
matter. Although he would gain fame, he wouldn’t get any
prizes.
When there were only six days left, his ranking dropped again.
With just five days remaining, they were at ease. At this pace,
Wu Yu would never make it to the top 10.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King looked up the rankings and saw
that Yin Wu was still fifth. However, he was certain Yin Wu
would replace the fourth within the next five days.
"Son, buck up!"
This was also partly because Jiang Yan was too powerful. Yin
Wu wasn’t stronger than him from the beginning. The Azure
Ginger Empire’s dragon king had only a son. Naturally, he had
expended all resources to groom him. At this point, the Azure
Ginger Empire’s dragon king was especially anxious and
vaguely confrontational against the Sky Chariot Dragon King.
Whether Yin Wu would squeeze into the top four was also a
matter that many paid attention to!
"There are only five days left for Yin Wu!"
"Jiang Yan is pretty incredible, and he should be slightly
stronger than Yin Wu."
"I would rather Jiang Yan be in the top four. If that were case,
the top four wouldn’t be monopolised by the descendants of the
trio...."
The focus of the people had gradually shifted away from Wu
Yu.
It was the start of the last five days.
As the people focused on the intense competition between Jiang
Yan and Yin Wu, Wu Yu had gradually faded from their
consciousness.
However, at the start of the day, Wu Yu advanced one spot
without many noticing.
Six hours later, he moved up another spot!
Another six hours passed and he moved up one more rank!
After another six hours, he moved up again!
"Wu Yu is in the top 10!"
No one knew who had exclaimed at this moment.
Many of them stood up abruptly and indeed found Wu Yu
making into the top 10!
10th! Primordial Immortal Empire, Wu Yu! Those words were
dazzling. This was because the names in the top 10 shone with
greater brilliance.
"He’s picking up speed again?"
"He’s making his way back? He’s in the top 10 now!"
Everyone in the Primordial Immortal Empire started cheering,
engulfing the voices of others.
At this moment, the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield
was unusually raucous.
"What?" The Sky Chariot Dragon King had started to forget
about Wu Yu while focusing on Yin Wu.
Now that he took a look, he was surprised to see Wu Yu placed
in 10th!
"There are four days left!"
Now that they had entered the final stage, it was also the most
exhilarating moment as the rankings might change at any
moment.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King was especially gloomy as Yin
Wu had yet to squeeze into the top four, but Wu Yu had made
it into the top 10. Seeing the cheerful looks on Wu Hao and the
rest and how Wu Hao was hugging Ye Qianning in excitement,
he couldn’t help but rage in fury.
Moreover, those that followed him in mocking them were
starting to praise Wu Yu. This was something he couldn’t
tolerate.
"Even if he had 500 years in the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn, he
wouldn’t achieve anything! As for my son, he’s definitely
going to get 10,000 years!" When he saw Tian Ming at the top,
his anger subsided slightly. No matter how prideful the
Primordial Immortal Empire was right now, they would never
be the focus.
Just as the thought arose in his head, he saw Wu Yu moving to
the ninth spot!
At the end of the fourth day from the end, Wu Yu advanced two
spots to rank seventh! At this point, the mystical dragons
couldn’t believe their eyes. This was because Wu Yu and Yin
Wu were just separated by a single person.
Fifth and seventh!
Three more days to go!
Everyone’s focus was on the Giant Purgatory Pillar, watching
the fourth, fifth, and seventh!
"This is crazy!"
"What is wrong with Wu Yu? Relying on his large number of
clones to search, killing his way without knowing fatigue, and
surpassing others at breakneck speed?"
"It appears to be that way. However, he has to have the requisite
strength, right? Could it be that he is similar in strength to Yin
Wu and the rest?"
"Regardless, isn’t he fatigued?"
However, it seemed like fatigue was never an issue for Wu Yu.
With his devouring ability, replenishing immortal energy and
buddha energy was too easy.
This was his huge advantage, and he wasn’t tired even after
several battles.
The mystical dragons from the Primordial Immortal Empire
were also holding their breaths. They also wanted Wu Yu to be
in the top four. Their goal were the same as Yin Wu’s.
"Brother, it seems like Wu Yu might be competing with your
Yin Wu for fourth place!" the Sky Shadow Dragon Queen
joked.
"That will never happen!" the Sky Chariot Dragon King
growled. Fury gleaned in his eyes, and the mystical dragons
around him didn’t dare to approach him.
There were a few who felt exceptionally awkward, namely the
Luminary Dragon King and the others. Seeing how the Sky
Chariot Dragon King was right now, they knew that their
outcome would be tragic even if they could join the Sky Chariot
Empire. Furthermore, they had stood forward and declared that
they would be leaving, which had humiliated Wu Jun and the
rest. There was no way Wu Jun would want them back now.
How could they ever have expected Wu Yu to be glamorous
right now?
And now there was no shame in the Primordial Immortal
Empire! The shame would only be on their three descendants,
while the Primordial Immortal Empire was basking in honor
with Wu Yu’s brilliant performance!
It was to the extent that even the Sky Chariot Empire was
speechless!
Therefore, they were completely lost.
Fortunately, the Sky Chariot Dragon King smiled.
This was because Yin Wu had officially surpassed Jiang Yan
to squeeze into the top four. His name shone with even brighter
brilliance!
"Ah!" Seeing that his son was forced back to fifth, the Azure
Ginger Empire’s dragon king heaved a long sigh. There was
nothing he could do, but he knew clearly how outstanding his
son was.
He was also sure that Tian Ming was helping Yin Wu.
With three days remaining, Jiang Yan had failed to hold on and
had been pulled back.
Yin Wu made it into the top four!
The Sky Chariot Dragon King laughed out heartily. Yin Wu
just had to hang on for three more days.
However, his laughter didn’t last long.
This was because Wu Yu had squeezed into the top six the very
next moment!
Right in front of him were Jiang Yan and Yin Wu. In fact, the
difference between Jiang Yan and Yin Wu wasn’t huge.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King and the other mystical dragons
felt suffocated once again.
An hour later, Wu Yu surpassed Jiang Yan!
"Wah!"
A huge commotion broke out in the Dragon Emperor’s
Supreme Battlefield.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King’s expression darkened.
Just as many had expected, Yin Wu, who had just made it to
the top four, was squeezed out after just 15 minutes. Wu Yu
leaped into the top four with just Lin Xiaoting, Tian Zi, and
Tian Ming ahead of him!
This time, the entire Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield
was boiling with excitement!
What kind of killing speed would enable this pace of
advancing?
The mystical dragons were in awe and looked towards the
Primordial Immortal Empire with respect.
Wu Hao and the rest were overjoyed and cheering loudly. Many
dragon lords were on cloud nine. They had been suppressed too
relentlessly before. Therefore, when they could finally release
their emotions, they didn’t hold back. Their loud laughter and
cheers were especially piercing to the ears of some.
For this trial, as long as one entered the top four, the final
placing didn’t matter. This was because the top four would still
have to battle it out among themselves.
At the same time, it meant that Wu Yu would at least have a
thousand years in the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn and a
destinable immortal treasure!
At this point, Wu Yu had won. Judging from his condition, it
would be hard for Yin Wu to surpass Wu Yu again.
Those outside could see clearly, but those inside didn’t know
that Wu Yu’s Dragon Emperor Immortal Design had grown so
huge!
"Fourth? In that case, my son will show Wu Yu where he stands
in the first round!" The Sky Chariot Dragon King could only
comfort himself this way. This was because Tian Ming was
first.
At the conclusion of the third day from the end, the crowd made
a racket again.
This was because Wu Yu had surpassed Lin Xiaoting to reach
third!
Lin Xiaoting had been placed third for close to a year!
However, this wasn’t the end.
At the conclusion of the second day from the end, Wu Yu
surpassed Tian Zi!
Primordial Immortal Empire, Wu Yu, was second, and only
Tian Ming from the Sky Chariot Empire was ahead of him!
A clamor broke out once again!
The only uncertainty right now would be if Wu Yu would
emerge in first.
There was only a day left, and the difference between Tian
Ming and Tian Zi was relatively huge.
However, the Sky Chariot Dragon King knew that Tian Ming
hadn’t been killing for his own purpose for the last month. He
had been helping Yin Wu.
Time slipped by slowly. On the last day, everyone was staring
at the top of the Giant Purgatory Pillar. Everyone was interested
to see if Wu Yu would make it to the top at the end.
The expression of the Sky Chariot Dragon King had never been
so gloomy. He had never expected Wu Hao to find someone
like Wu Yu, that could embarrass him so utterly. Now he
wasn’t just furious, but also hateful. This was because he had
never been humiliated so utterly before.
Nonetheless and fortunately, his son preserved his last tinge of
pride. That was ranking first on the Giant Purgatory Pillar.
Two hours left.
One hours left.
15 minutes left.
60 breaths of time left and nothing had changed on the Giant
Purgatory Pillar.
At the final 30 breaths of time, there was still no change....
Many mystical dragons heaved long sighs. The Sky Chariot
Dragon King still kept the last bit of face....
This was proof that Tian Ming was indeed exceptional.
...........
...........
When Wu Yu killed the last 9-Xuan immortal, he felt his
Escape Immortal Design trigger on its own.
"It has finally ended."
He felt a little helpless. Towards the end, he had been driven
entirely by the killing desire of the Heaven Devouring Titanic
Beast. He was getting hooked on the sensation of killing.
He had also grown extensively stronger.
However, he knew that the most important task that he had
come to the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory to accomplish hadn’t
been completed.
He hadn’t found that person.
And now, he watched helplessly as the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory, the world that had a dullish-yellow tint, was slowly
engulfed in white light and he was taken out of this place.
All of a sudden, amidst the white light, a snow-white dragon
scale fell onto his hand. At the same time, a familiar voice rang
in his ear.
"The Floating Dreams Sword is the key to open it."
That was the voice that had guided Wu Yu into the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory.
Immediately after, he was dragged out of the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory and back to the Dragon Emperor’s
Supreme Battlefield.
When he appeared, he didn’t know why the place was
uproarious or why the mystical dragons seemed to have lost
their minds.
To tell the truth, when Wu Yu exited the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory, he felt like tearing up.
For one whole year, he had searched for that voice that had
called out to him.
He thought that once he went in, he could see who the voice
belonged to.
But, unexpectedly, one year of searching, even with the
100,000 dopplegangers, was a futile attempt.
In fact, he had already given up. He even thought that he had
been tricked.
Hence, he turned his energy and focus to increasing his strength
and his ranking on the Giant Purgatory Pillar. In doing so, he
could at least make Wu Jun and the others proud and leave in
pride.
However, at the moment that he was exiting the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory, that voice sounded in his ears again and
handed him a snow-white dragon scale.
He did not have the time to respond or figure out who that
person was. At the next moment, he appeared on the Dragon
Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield.
"I didn’t expect that he would come to me without me looking
for him."
Wu Yu had a lot of doubts about the person’s identity popping
up in his mind.
But he had no choice. It was obvious that this person was not
willing to explain anything to him.
Or perhaps the mystery lay within this snow-white dragon
scale.
He could vaguely recall that the person mentioned the Floating
Dreams Sword, which was the prize for first place.
"He gave me this snow-white dragon scale and asked me to win
the championship? But to do that, I must have the chance to
participate in the final battle!"
Wu Yu started to feel depressed. If this had been mentioned to
him earlier, he would have put in more effort to win the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory Trial! To enter the top four!
As for whether he had entered the top four, Wu Yu did not
know. He could only look up at the Giant Purgatory Pillar
amongst the loud cheers. At this time, his heart pounded, for
fear that he had not entered the top four!
"If only I had one year’s time to strengthen my Dragon
Emperor Immortal Design! No matter what, I would definitely
have entered the top four! Why did he tell me only at the very
end...."
Wu Yu could not help but feel a little gloomy. Now he could
only depend on his luck.
Of course, getting this dragon scale and the numerous clues it
carried before exiting was already a pleasant surprise.
Now the whole Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield was in
an uproar. Everyone was shouting in excitement, but no one
could hear what they were shouting. Mystical dragons had loud
voices.
Wu Yu raised his head. His gaze swept across the top 10, from
bottom to top. He saw who was in fourth place: Sky Will
Empire, Lin Xiaoting!
Not him.
Then he saw third place: Sky Shadow Empire, Tian Zi!
Still not him.
His hopes diminished!
He looked carefully towards the top of the Giant Purgatory
Pillar that was covered in the clouds. Second place was: Sky
Chariot Empire, Tian Ming!
It was still not him!
"Wait, Tian Ming is in second place? How is that possible, who
surpassed him?"
Wu Yu raised his head again. His gaze pierced through the
clouds. Once he saw who was in first place, he smiled because
he could see that what was written there was: Primordial
Immortal Empire, Wu Yu!
It was his name!
"The three of them are that weak? I surpassed them in just one
month’s time, haha...." Wu Yu was, of course, delighted
because he thought that he had not even entered the top four.
He did not expect to achieve such results. It was no wonder
there was such a commotion when the ranking was revealed,
and many people were looking at him in shock. It turned out
that he had gotten first place!
It was no wonder the whole Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield was in an uproar. Wu Yu knew clearly that one
month before, he was at the bottom of the rankings. It was
indeed shocking that he had managed to get first place in the
end.
To Wu Yu, he just needed to enter the top four. The rankings
within the top four did not matter. Because obviously, that
voice wanted him to participate in the final battle and get the
prize for first place, the Floating Dreams Sword.
Wu Yu did not have any other choice. This was the one and
only chance to get the Floating Dreams Sword and open this
snow-white dragon scale. If he missed this chance, he would
regret it for his whole life.
In the loud commotion and when almost everyone began to
look at Wu Yu with shock and admiration in their eyes, he
heard faintly someone saying, "In the last breath of time, he
surpassed the Tian Ming Dragon Lord and got first place!"
Wu Yu now understood why the audience was in an uproar. It
turned out that his last kill, a 9-Xuan immortal, had
unexpectedly helped him to surpass the Tian Ming Dragon
Lord. It was definitely humiliating for the other party to be
surpassed at the last minute after being in first place for so long.
Wu Yu could feel many people looking at him with anger.
In fact, Tian Ming and his group were standing not far away
from Wu Yu. Wu Yu could see them clearly from where he was
standing.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord and his group were still calm and
relaxed when they exited the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory.
Maybe they thought that everyone was cheering for them.
Yin Wu raised his head in anticipation. He had already guessed
his ranking. When he saw his name at fifth place, he froze on
the spot.
His heart broke!
"Who was it!? Who managed to squeeze me out and got into
the top four? Jiang Yan?" He thought that Jiang Yan had
snatched his place in the top four.
But he realized in horror that Jiang Yan was in the sixth place,
behind him! This meant that he had surpassed Jiang Yan.
Then who could it be!?
Other than Jiang Yan, he could not think of anyone else.
Then he looked upwards. Lin Xiaoting and Tian Zi’s ranking
were within his expectations - they were expected to enter the
top four. However, when he saw Tian Ming’s name in second
place, his whole body trembled. The Tian Ming Dragon Lord
who was standing beside him also turned deathly pale.
He looked towards first place immediately!
But what he saw in first place was: Primordial Immortal
Empire, Wu Yu!
"How is that possible!?" The Tian Ming Dragon Lord stood
there in a daze as if he was struck by lightning.
"Did something go wrong? Did the Giant Purgatory Pillar make
a mistake? Removing the mistake, Wu Yu, from the rankings,
you are still in fourth...." The Tian Ming Dragon Lord
comforted Yin Wu.
Yin Wu did not know whether to laugh or cry. He said, "The
Giant Purgatory Pillar would never make a mistake, let alone
such a ridiculous mistake. Shouldn’t Wu Yu be in last...."
They did not know how fast Wu Yu had progressed inside the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, hence this was the only
explanation they could think of.
However, they were obviously deceiving themselves.
It was because no one was commenting on the credibility of the
Giant Purgatory Pillar. They were all discussing how Wu Yu
had surpassed Tian Ming and reached first at the last moment!
"Big Brother Tian Ming, seems like they, they are all saying
that... Wu Yu surpassed you in the last breath of time. From
second place, he reached first place...." Yin Wu trembled in
shock as he looked at his surroundings. Most of the mystical
dragons who had just exited the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory
were in a daze, but the rest of the mystical dragons were all very
clear-minded and shocked after seeing the results.
"Is the Giant Purgatory Pillar mistaken?" Tian Zi and Lin
Xiaoting walked over to Tian Ming’s side in shock as well.

"It is not possible for Wu Yu to get first place. I nearly killed

him previously. His strength is that of a 6-Xuan immortal at
most," Lin Xiaoting said confidently.
Based on a 6-Xuan immortal’s strength, it was not possible to
reach first place.
"But from their reactions, it seems like there is no mistake."
"I can see Wu Yu. He’s there!" Yin Wu pointed at Wu Yu, who
was standing within the crowd. For a moment, many mystical
dragons heard Yin Wu’s shout and started to look towards Wu
Yu with doubtful eyes.
They were sure that the Giant Purgatory Pillar was mistaken.
Even Tian Ming thought so.
It was simple. They could determine if the Giant Purgatory
Pillar was mistaken by looking at Wu Yu’s Dragon Emperor
Immortal Design.
At the moment, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord, Tian Zi, Lin
Xiaoting, and Yin Wu’s Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs
were the brightest. With one look, one would know that they
had outstanding achievements!
At this time, many mystical dragons guessed that the Giant
Purgatory Pillar was mistaken. They all looked towards Wu
Yu’s arm!
However, the faces of the Tian Ming Dragon Lord and the
others started to become pale.
"This is not possible!" Yin Wu was on the verge of crying
because he saw that the Dragon Emperor Immortal Design on
Wu Yu’s arm was indeed about the same strength as the Tian
Ming Dragon Lord’s Dragon Emperor Immortal Design. It was
really stronger than his, Lin Xiaoting, and Tian Zi’s Dragon
Emperor Immortal Designs.
And it was even slightly stronger than the Tian Ming Dragon
Lord’s Dragon Emperor Immortal Design!
A mere immortal who had participated in a mystical dragon’s
trial had actually taken first place! This was explosive news to
the whole mystical dragon tribe.
"I don’t believe it!" Yin Wu was feeling so down and lost that
he rushed towards Wu Yu. He probably wanted to check Wu
Yu’s Dragon Emperor Immortal Design himself. He had fallen
into a state of madness.
"Don’t be hasty." Tian Ming pulled him back. He glared at Wu
Yu coldly and said, "Let’s all keep quiet. Whether or not it’s
real, the Sky Will Dragon King will know."
Because at this time, the Sky Will Dragon King had already
made a move and said to everyone, "Be quiet."
The Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield gradually
quietened down.
However, many continued to stare at Wu Yu.
Wu Yu ignored their gazes. He looked towards the Primordial
Immortal Empire’s direction. At that side, all the mystical
dragons were in high spirits, especially Wu Hao. He was
smiling from ear to ear. Luo Pin was also smiling. After seeing
Luo Pin’s smile, Wu Yu calmed down a lot.
They were very satisfied with Wu Yu’s performance.
Then Wu Yu glanced at the Sky Chariot Dragon King. That old
fogie’s face looked as if he ate shit. He looked very grim and
glum.
It was no wonder Wu Hao was feeling so happy. Wu Yu’s last
minute performance in surpassing Tian Ming was like a big,
tight slap to the Sky Chariot Dragon King’s face. He had gotten
humiliated and lost all his reputation in public, like a monkey
that was being toyed around with.
This was also considered a retaliation to his rude remarks
before.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord had even thought of snatching Luo
Pin away, so Wu Yu would definitely make him pay.
At this time, the Sky Will Dragon King said, "The Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory Trial has ended. I’m very satisfied with
everyone’s performance in this one year. As for everyone’s
rankings, it is displayed clearly on the Giant Purgatory Pillar.
For the next 9,000 years, funnel your cultivation resources to
the mystical dragon youths. The quotas for the next Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory Trial will be decided according to these
rankings."
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord broke the silence and asked, "Sky
Will Dragon King, could it be that there is a mistake regarding
the rankings displayed on the Giant Purgatory Pillar? Or maybe
there is something wrong with the Dragon Emperor Immortal
Designs?"
It was illogical to him for Wu Yu’s Dragon Emperor Immortal
Design to be that powerful, as Wu Yu had no such strength at
all.
Unexpectedly, the Sky Will Dragon King rebutted his
questions in front of everyone. "If you doubt the Giant
Purgatory Pillar and the Dragon Emperor Immortal Designs, it
means that you are suspecting me and the two revered dragons
of the council’s abilities and fairness. Do you think that the
Giant Purgatory Pillar would ever be mistaken?"
The purpose of those two revered dragons hosting the trial was
to ensure fairness!
What’s more, almost the whole Sky Heart Tribe was under the
control of the Sky Will Dragon King, his brother, and his sister.
Even if the results were biased, it would only be unfair towards
Wu Yu and the rest, and beneficial for the Tian Ming Dragon
Lord.
"Tian Ming definitely does not dare to doubt. He simply cannot
comprehend it." He was actually boiling inside. Losing to Wu
Yu was a great humiliation, especially since he had taunted Wu
Hao and the others before. His face was now burning from
shame.
"If you can’t comprehend it, the final battle will let you
experience it yourself," the Sky Will Dragon King said.
This was a reminder to Tian Ming that the ranking was decided,
and already in the past.
Therefore, even if he could not accept the current results, the
final battle would show all. When Wu Yu fought inside, the
Eye of the Dragon Emperor had completely ignored him. But
now that they were outside, every individual’s eyes were
trained onto him.
Tian Ming understood.
After all, the Dragon Emperor’s Trial had not ended yet. Next
would be the battles that decided the first, second, third, and
fourth places. That was key.
In the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, as long as one entered the
top four, then there was no real difference besides the order of
the battles.
"There will be five days to rest. In five days’ time, the battle
will take place here. Amongst these youths, who will end up as
the final champion? Everyone, please watch on."
After all, the Dragon Emperor Purgatory’s most intense climax
had yet to begin.
Hearing this, the competitors could leave the Dragon
Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield now and return to their own
dragon kings.
Before he returned, Lin Xiaoting fixed Wu Yu with a sinister
stare and spewed venomous words. "Wu Yu, although I have
no idea how you bumbled your way to this place, in five days’
time, I will be the first to expose you as the fraud you really
are!"
He was fourth, and Wu Yu first. He would be Wu Yu’s first
opponent.
"I’m really envious that you can fight useless crap like him and
easily enter the finals. Which means you are at least in second
place. As for me, I’m up against Tian Ming, that sickening
thing. I can only get third place at most! If I knew that earlier,
I would have given way to you so that I could be fourth," Tian
Zi wailed.
The gap in prizes between second and third was huge.
Therefore, the most glum person was not just Yin Wu and Tian
Ming, but rather her, Tian Zi. Actually, she was confident in
beating Lin Xiaoting, but now she could only get third place.
That was too disheartening.
Even the amount of time she would get to cultivate in the Tower
of Dragon’s Dawn was 2,000 years less!
Lin Xiaoting smirked. "Sometimes, luck is also a part of one’s
strength."
"You got a sweet deal and are still acting modest? I’ll beat you
up," Tian Zi said coyly.
They returned to the Sky Will Empire, the Sky Chariot Empire,
and the Sky Shadow Empire. The Tian Ming Dragon Lord’s
eyes were murderous, and they frequently flicked over to Wu
Yu in a warning glare. And then he returned to the Sky Will
Empire.
But Wu Yu had to get the Floating Dreams Sword.
Dragon lord or otherwise, Wu Yu would definitely go all out in
the finals.
In such a place, Wu Yu did not dare to take out the white dragon
scale and examine it. He was afraid that others would see it. He
would wait until he might be able to get the Floating Dreams
Sword.
Of course, the being had also posed a difficult challenge for Wu
Yu. Because his opponents were all very strong, it would not
be easy to get the Floating Dreams Sword.
Wu Yu returned to the Primordial Immortal Empire amidst a
crowd of shocked and envious people, back to where Wu Jun
and the others were. They were already waiting for him.
Wu Yu returned with Ye Xuanyi and the other two behind him.
They hung their heads as they returned to their parents, who
were also looking glum and sour. Besides them, the other
Primordial Immortal Empire mystical dragons were all
overjoyed.
Wu Jun said, "Since you’ve already said it, then we will not
keep you. You can pack your things and go to the Sky Chariot
Empire immediately. Of course, if you want to watch the finals,
you may do so also."
Wu Hao smiled. "After being with you three for so many years,
we are all old friends. I’m so happy for all three of you. After
all, the Sky Chariot Empire is more than five times stronger
than the Primordial Immortal Empire, and you three will
definitely rise like ships on the high waters. Your statuses have
naturally also increased, so you can snub us or ignore us. Please
don’t forget us when you are rich and famous. Haha."
Those people would definitely have to take responsibility for
their decision.
And all of this was because of Wu Yu. Wu Yu had become the
Primordial Immortal Empire’s hero.
Wu Hao, Wu Jun, Ye Qianning, and Luo Pin were all waiting
for his return. All of the Primordial Immortal Empire’s mystical
dragons were cheering for him.
For example, the Immortal Radiance Dragon Monarch. He now
understood why Wu Hao and his wife liked Wu Yu so much.
He was a miraculous talent!
"Congratulations to you, Wu Yu," Wu Jun said.
"Your performance was outstanding. Superb. Today, we can
stand tall because of you, and continue to hold our heads high!"
Wu Hao exclaimed.
Everyone knew why Wu Yu had performed as he did.
It was all to save their pride. If not for the Sky Chariot Dragon
King’s excessive bullying, he would not be feeling such a
strong feeling of redemption right now.
"I have to thank Uncle Jun for giving me this chance."
Wu Jun asked in a hushed voice, "Did you achieve your
purpose for going in?"
Wu Yu nodded. "Although there were some rocky times, it was
more or less achieved. But now, I have to obtain the Floating
Dreams Sword."
"What?" Wu Jun and the others looked at each other.
Wu Hao said, "The Floating Dreams Sword can only be
obtained if you defeat Lin Xiaoting and Tian Ming head-on.
How can you.... They have been humiliated, and will definitely
not show any mercy. Since your goal is already accomplished,
you don’t need to take this risk, right...."
Ye Qianning said, "Wu Yu, it is not that your Uncle Hao
doesn’t want you to participate. Firstly, the three of them are
truly very strong. Secondly, besides the Floating Dreams
Sword, the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn is the real prize. But the
Tower of Dragon’s Dawn will not allow non-mystical dragons
to enter. Which means that even if you get first place, you will
be unable to enter the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn...."
They were very worried, because they did not know what Wu
Yu’s capabilities were.
"Don’t panic. Let’s hear Wu Yu out," Wu Jun said.
Luo Pin also agreed. "Wu Yu definitely is prepared."
Wu Yu said, "Indeed, I have some confidence. Now that I have
made some transformations, I can indeed stand toe to toe with
them. Please do not worry. It is possible that I can’t beat them,
but they can’t possibly hurt me either. I have a fairly speedy
escape mystique. As for the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn, I don’t
really mind. I really just want the Floating Dreams Sword. The
Floating Dreams Sword is more important to me."
"Does it have something to do with the being in the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory?" Wu Jun guessed.
Wu Yu nodded. He quite trusted these three seniors.
"Alright, do your best, then. Show us how far you can go," Wu
Jun said.
Wu Hao and Ye Qianning looked at each other, then he said,
"Actually, we were humiliated quite badly this time round. But
you won our pride back for us. You don’t need to bear our
shame now. Focus on your own battle, and it will be enough.
After all, we seniors just want you to come back whole. That’s
the most important thing for us."
Wu Yu nodded and smiled. "Please don’t be worried, everyone.
The hardest part is already over. Just watch me next."
"I believe in this kid. He’s already worked a miracle. What’s so
hard about working another?" Wu Hao guffawed, clapping Wu
Yu on the shoulder. He was as satisfied as could be with this
son-in-law.
Wu Yu returned to Luo Pin’s side.
"Just like before. Full of will and the hot blood of youth." In the
world of mystical dragons, Luo Pin followed him, changing
into human form. If not for all the people around, she would
already have hugged him.
Wu Yu leaned against her and said softly, "There are too many
immortals in the sky palaces. This ’hidden backer’ deterrence
will probably be effective for a while more. Since your parents
are protecting me here, I definitely have to help them vent their
anger as well. Oh, right, I obtained a white dragon scale in
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. When this is over, let’s go back
and examine it."
"Why do you need the Floating Dreams Sword?" Luo Pin
asked.
"Because that person said that the Floating Dreams Sword is
the key to activating this white dragon scale."
"I see. Acquit yourself well, then. You devoured a lot inside. Is
your mental state stable?"
Wu Yu nodded. "I’m already at the limit. Even looking at you
now, I can hardly control myself. I want to procreate and make
some babies with you. I really do," Wu Yu said, his eyes
gleaming.
He indeed wanted to, but with all these elders around, and the
others all preparing for their fight, he could not very well drag
Luo Pin off to do it.
Luo Pin blushed. "Stop teasing me, I’m too young."
Wu Yu teased her, "Don’t act young. You were an old cow
grazing on the young grass in the mortal domain. I’m the young
one."
"We’re both young. Stop thinking about these things all day.
Perform well. In reality." Luo Pin knocked his head.
"Is there a reward if I perform well?"
"That depends on how well you perform...."
"You mean, there’s a chance?"
"No chance."
"How can I get a chance?"
"I want a grand wedding."
"Is this the heart of a young girl?"
"I am a young girl."
"......"
Things had been tense in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. He
was now relaxing by her side. He had five days, and the after-
effects of the devouring were already half-gone. Wu Yu was
much more alert compared to when he had just come out.
He was already well prepared for the final battle.
Over at the other side, the men and women of the Sky Will
Empire, the Sky Shadow Empire, and the Sky Chariot Empire
were gathered together.
The Sky Will Dragon King, the Sky Shadow Dragon Queen,
and the Sky Chariot Dragon King were all present.
"What on earth happened? How could that Wu Yu...." Tian
Ming was still in disbelief.
The Sky Shadow Dragon Queen said, "Firstly, Wu Yu has a
mystique that produces many clones. He could find Dragon
Emperor’s Prisons many times faster than you all. Also, he has
some hidden ability. Perhaps his true strength at the start was
roughly at 9-xuan immortal level."
Tian Ming’s face blackened. "No wonder. I used the City of
10,000 Swords and Dragons to trap him before, but he
escaped."
Tian Zi was dismayed. "Even if this person ie a 9-xuan
immortal, how could he hide his strength from you all?"
The Sky Will Dragon King pondered for a moment before
answering, "His immortal body is exceptionally powerful. As
for concealment capabilities, his strength is indeed exceedingly
high. This probably has something to do with the immortal
behind him."
"There really is an immortal behind him?" asked the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King answered with a darkened face,
"What else could explain all this? How long has it been since
he ascended as an immortal? How long does it take to become
a Xuan immortal? You guys should know how old Luo Pin is.
He’s at most several hundred years older than Luo Pin in the
mortal domain. At most, he has cultivated for a thousand years
or so. Someone like him would still be considered a unique
talent even in the most elite sky palaces. Without an immortal
behind him, how could he have achieved it?"
The Sky Shadow Dragon Queen interrupted, "Let’s leave it
there. Don’t boost their morale while reducing our courage
before we are certain of it. At least for now, Tian Ming has to
come out first."
The Sky Will Dragon King turned to Lin Xiaoting and said, "Be
decisive and don’t look down on your opponent."
"Yes, Father," Lin Xiaoting answered readily. "Although he
made it to the top four by relying on his mystiques, he will be
placed fourth at most."
As for the rumors saying that Wu Yu might be a 9-Xuan
immortal, Lin Xiaoting wasn’t afraid. This was because there
were over 30 9-Xuan immortal realm participants this time. The
reason why Tian Zi, Yin Wu, and him could emerge at the top
was because they were ultimate mystical dragons.
At the equivalent realm of 9-Xuan immortal, an ultimate
mystical dragon could easily defeat two supreme mystical
dragons.
They were the strongest among all those at the Nine Xuan Dao
Realm!
They might be surpassed by Wu Yu when it came to hunting
down targets, because Wu Yu had that clone mystique.
However, they were never afraid of him in battle.
"Tian Ming, rest assured. You won’t have the chance to fight
with Wu Yu," Lin Xiaoting said confidently.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord answered, "I do hope you lose in
battle. In that case, I could make him beg for mercy personally."
"Big Brother Tian Ming, if you still feel compassion towards
me in the first round, you will be able to fight with Wu Yu for
third place~" Tian Zi joked.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord paused momentarily but smiled
and said, "That wouldn’t be possible. You could have gotten
second. What a shame!"
"It’s all because of that Wu Yu. Lin Xiaoting! You have to trash
him utterly. If it wasn’t for him, you wouldn’t be placed above
me." Tian Zi was still feeling a little indignant.
She was clearly slated to come out in third place at this rate.
Just why was her luck worse than Lin Xiaoting’s?
If she knew this would happen, she wouldn’t have competed
against Lin Xiaoting. She might as well have taken things easy
for a few days during the earlier competition.
"If you are so confident, make your words count," the Sky Will
Dragon King said plainly.
Behind them, Tian Ming asked the Sky Chariot Dragon King
separately, "Father, is the immortal behind Wu Yu really that
powerful?"
The Sky Chariot Dragon King scoffed and said, "Not
necessarily true. In fact, we don’t even know if he really exists."
"Then why did you...."
"I’m saying it for Sky Will. He has alway been more skeptical.
Furthermore, our mystical dragon tribe is huge. With the Nine
Great Dragon Emperors and so many revered dragons, why
would we have to be afraid of an immortal?"
"So what you are saying is?"
"Your opponent isn’t Wu Yu. Just focus on getting first. In that
way, I won’t be that embarrassed."
"Wu Hao and the rest humiliated you?"
"It’s Wu Yu’s performance that put me to shame!" the Sky
Chariot Dragon King said with a vicious glare.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord understood and said, "I will speak
to Lin Xiaoting privately to get him to strike more ruthlessly.
As for me, I will definitely be first. Other than first place,
nothing else matters to me."
"It’s great that you understand. You have waited 9,000 years
for this day!"
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord naturally understood the gravity
of the situation.
If he had obtained the rights to cultivate 10,000 years in the
Tower of Dragon’s Dawn 9,000 years ago, he would have 1,000
left right now. With 10,000 years in the Tower of Dragon’s
Dawn, his cultivation level would not just be where it was
today!
"9,000 years! First place is my only option...."
The eyes of the Tian Ming Dragon Lord burned with passion
and fervor.
Five days passed by in a jiffy. For the four of them, it was like
catching a breath.
The moment that everyone anticipated had finally arrived!
On the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield, not a single
mystical dragon had left. News of the top four and the rankings
on the Giant Purgatory Pillar had spread throughout the Sky
Heart tribe. Wu Yu’s name was now known by everyone.
Therefore, those dragon kings and dragon lords that hadn’t
show up previously rushed over from afar to witness the
crowning of the champion.
There were even guests from the other eight tribes!
After all, this was a grand affair for the Sky Heart tribe!
For those who had just arrived, they were obviously discussing
who the Primordial Immortal Empire’s Wu Yu was.
Over the past few days, many people visited the Primordial
Immortal Empire to exchange words with Wu Yu.
Even Wu Jun became a popular person in these days.
The day of the finals had finally arrived!
The Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield was filled with
excitement and a raucous crowd.
The Sky Will Empire, the Sky Shadow Empire, and the Sky
Chariot Empire vaguely formed an opposing stand to the
Primordial Immortal Empire opposite them. Although the three
empires were especially powerful, the Primordial Immortal
Empire wasn’t completely pinned to the ground without any
ability to put up any resistance. This was because Wu Yu was
around.
Right now, the Sky Will Dragon King announced, "The finals
of the Dragon Emperor’s Trial will begin right now!
"Can I have everyone pay attention to the top four names on the
Giant Purgatory Pillar. For the first round of finals, second
placed Tian Ming from the Sky Chariot Empire will be facing
third placed Tian Zi from the Sky Shadow Empire. The fourth
placed Lin Xiaoting from the Sky Will Empire will face the
first placed Wu Yu from the Primordial Immortal Empire."
When Wu Yu’s name was announced, it drew a clamor.
"After the first battle, the champions will be determined
between the two victors and the losers will fight for third
place!"
Everyone knew about these rules.
As it would start soon, the crowd got even more excited.
Although they were all dragon kings and dragon lords, the
competition between the younger generation was still
intriguing to them.
"Now, the second placed Tian Ming from the Sky Chariot
Empire will face the third placed Tian Zi from the Sky Shadow
Empire!"
When their names were recited, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord
and Tian Zi leaped into the sky. The Primordial Divine Dragon
had a majestic dominance and exceptional poise. As for the
Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon, she looked more gentle and
was especially adorable and cute.
Both of them stood opposite on the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield.
"You may begin," shouted the Sky Will Dragon King.
Tian Ming coughed once before saying, "Zi Er, I hope you are
ready. I won’t show any mercy. This battle is too important to
me."
Before the public eye, Tian Zi smiled shyly and said, "Big
Brother Tian Ming, I understand. You should be aware of my
intentions."
Was this a battle or a flirting show?
The crowd could only laugh. Everyone knew Tian Zi wanted to
marry the Tian Ming Dragon Lord dearly.

Just as expected, before Tian Ming made his move, Tian Zi

announced, "I’ve sparred with Big Brother Tian Ming countless
times. He’s at the Immortal Lord Realm, while I’m still a 9-
xuan immortal. I have lost every single match against him and
I couldn’t put up much resistance. For the battle today, I’ll
admit my defeat. There’s no need to go through the battle. I will
save my energy to deal with the one fighting for third place."
As she spoke, she glanced at Wu Yu from the Primordial
Immortal Empire. She had pinned all her hatred onto Wu Yu.
Moreover, Wu Yu had shamed her in the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory, and the memories had never left her mind.
This was something she had thought of from the beginning and
had received approval from the Sky Shadow Dragon Queen.
She was indeed not a match for Tian Ming. Therefore, battling
him was pointless. Instead of getting exhausted and sustaining
injuries, it was safer for her to crush Wu Yu in her peak form.
The crowd wasn’t looking forward to this battle at all. They
were the golden couple that many mystical dragons had
assumed for this generation. Even if they fought, they wouldn’t
use their full strength. There wouldn’t be any uncertainty to the
outcome either.
Therefore, the Sky Will Dragon King announced, "I accept
your defeat. Therefore, this battle is over and the victor is Tian
Ming. Tian Zi will participate in the battle for third place in five
days."
"In that case, Wu Yu will be facing Lin Xiaoting and Tian Zi
consecutively. Both of them are probably nursing a deep
grudge. If Wu Yu doesn’t concede defeat directly, it might take
a bad turn."
"Yeah. The limelight on the trio was snatched by Wu Yu."
"Moreover, Tian Zi seems to abhor Wu Yu. I wonder if they
encountered each other in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory."
"The next match will be exciting. Lin Xiaoting versus Wu Yu.
We can have a good look at the real level Wu Yu is at."
Tian Zi admitting defeat directly wasn’t out of Wu Yu’s
expectations. He didn’t really care. He just had to defeat Lin
Xiaoting first and then Tian Ming in the final battle to get his
hands on the Floating Dreams Sword.
Because of that voice and that existence, he wouldn’t give up
the fight to be the champion even if he died.
At this moment, the Sky Will Dragon King announced,
"Coming up next, fourth placed Lin Xiaoting from the Sky Will
Empire will face Wu Yu from the Primordial Immortal
Empire!"
Perhaps there was historical meaning because Wu Yu came
from an empire beyond the Three Great Empires. With
someone breaking the monopoly of the Three Great Empires,
there were many who were cheering for Wu Yu.
However, his opponent was the adopted son that the Sky Will
Dragon King had raised from young.
"Father, I’ll definitely bring glory to you," said Lin Xiaoting
solemnly. The Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon that had nine-
colored lightning dancing around him had a grandiose
demeanor as he landed on the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield. As for his opponent, Wu Yu, he seemed unusually
insignificant.
"Big Brother Lin! Defeat him!" From afar, Xue Bingyi from
the Sky Snow Empire had led a group of girls from the Sky
Snow Empire to cheer for Lin Xiaoting.
She naturally hated Wu Yu.
Wu Yu stood up and shouldered the hopes of Wu Jun and the
rest. However, he wasn’t pumped up like Lin Xiaoting. Rather,
he appeared cold and aloof.
At this moment, he jumped up high in his immortal form and
rushed onto the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield. When
he landed, the entire battlefield was engulfed in blistering, nine-
colored lightning, creating a huge lightning city! It was as
though any living creature that entered it would be reduced to
ashes by the lightning. As for the Mystical Palace Thunder
Dragon, he hovered freely above the lightning city.
The Sky Will Dragon King had yet to announce the beginning
of the battle.
Lin Xiaoting smirked and said, “Wu Yu! Your doom is here.
You managed to get away last time. Let’s see where you escape
to this time!"
Wu Yu landed before him and looked down on him from a
greater height.
He said nonchalantly, "This time, you will be the one who will
be thinking of escaping."
He was unusually quick and appeared in front of Lin Xiaoting
in a split second.
At this moment, millions of mystical dragons, dragon kings,
and dragon lords were holding their breaths while watching.
The Sky Will Dragon King finally announced the start of the
battle.
"Destruction!" The Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon raised the
nine-colored lightning city towards Wu Yu immediately! He
wanted to trap Wu Yu in it!
"Nine-colored Thunder Confinement!"
He released his terrifying Natural Mystique instantly. Wu Yu’s
immortal body looked pitifully small in this place.
However, to Wu Yu, this farce wouldn’t even trouble him.
Today was different from before.
During their last encounter, Lin Xiaoting’s nine-colored
thunder forced Wu Yu to remain on the move to protect his life.
Even so, he had been injured, and had spent a good few days
healing.
And today, he would face him squarely on the Dragon
Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield!
The spectators such as Tian Zi favored Lin Xiaoting, and had
no doubts about the outcome of these finals.
Tian Ming had easily taken down Tian Zi, and then Lin
Xiaoting would easily take down Wu Yu. In the third-fourth
placing, Tian Zi would easily beat Wu Yu, and then finally Tian
Ming would easily take down Lin Xiaoting.
This was also why everyone felt that Lin Xiaoting had good
luck, while Tian Zi had lost out! Clearly, her Dragon Emperor
Immortal Design was stronger, but she would fall to third place!
"In less than 10 breaths of time, Lin Xiaoting will win. His aura
is way too strong compared to Wu Yu’s." Many dragon kings
made such a prediction.
At this time, nine-colored thunder had completely swarmed Wu
Yu.
Within the crackling chaos, there seemed to be a nine-headed
feral beast ripping away at Wu Yu’s body!
"Tear this wretch into 10,000 pieces!" Lin Xiaoting’s laughter
cackled out like lightning. He was like a god of lightning in the
sky palaces to Wu Yu.
"Keh."
Wu Yu had let him attack first to see what he was capable of.
Compared to the 9-xuan immortals that Wu Yu had killed in
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, he seemed stronger only in terms
of immortal energy.
It was his turn.
He used his powerful physical body to tank the attack as he
muscled his way forward, charging the Mystical Palace
Thunder Dragon.
"Spirit Chaser Art!"
He immediately sent out a strong shock that ripped the nine-
colored thunder apart and blasted the Mystical Palace Thunder
Dragon.
"Roar!"
The Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon was disoriented, his eyes
rolling back.
"What a splendid immortal spirit attack!"
Many had seen this Spirit Chaser Art in action now, and could
recognize its power.
But this was just the start!
"Optics of Immortal Expanse!"
With the Spirit Chaser Art opening the way, Wu Yu charged
through the nine-colored thunder. After using the Spirit Chaser
Art, Wu Yu’s eyes blasted out two punishing columns of fire!
The two columns of fire smashed into the confused Mystical
Palace Thunder Dragon, sending him shooting into the sky.
There were two gaping holes in his body, and the Eyes of Fire
and Gold had turned him into a flaming mystical dragon!
At this time, the pained cries of the Mystical Palace Thunder
Dragon could be clearly heard. His huge mystical dragon body
writhed like a viper that had been rapped by a stick.
Many dragon kings frowned, and many more dragon lords’
eyes widened in surprise, sucking in sharp hisses of cold air.
This battle had developed too quickly, and no one had time to
react.
"10,000 Celestial Dragon Slashes!"
Wu Yu had an indifferent expression on his face as he passed
through the nine-colored thunder. He pressed his advantage. In
his hand, the Luminary Celestial Dragon Mantra Sword blasted
out with tremendous power, sword qi arcing everywhere. The
sword qi of 10,000 celestial dragons filled the air. The charred
Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon rushed out of the flames, only
to be swallowed anew by 10,000 blasts of sword qi!
His body was ripped through with many bloody scars, and
again riddled with holes.
"No!" Seeing Wu Yu’s emotionless and casual expression, Lin
Xiaoting could not bear it. He had thought this match up to be
a stroke of good luck, but now he was being completely
crushed.
"Enough. The battle is over." The Sky Will Dragon King’s
voice boomed out across the field.
Wu Yu would definitely not allow the mystical dragons to have
anything to hold against him. Therefore, he immediately
retracted his move when the Sky Will Dragon King spoke. Of
course, even though he had ceased his attack, the Mystical
Palace Thunder Dragon Lin Xiaoting was still left helpless.
When he stopped, the massive Mystical Palace Thunder
Dragon, charred and riddled with holes, fell from the sky above
the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield, paralleled by his
crashing ego.
As for Wu Yu, he rose magnificently in the sky, his face neutral
as he casually stowed the Luminary Celestial Dragon Mantra
Sword.
"Thank you for going easy." A slight smile twitched on Wu
Yu’s lips.
The Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield was silent. It was
as if time had stood still. All around, there were looks of
complete disbelief and bewilderment.
Even Wu Jun, Wu Hao, and the others could not believe their
eyes. They also did not know and would not have dreamed that
Wu Yu could actually beat Lin Xiaoting.
"Hngh!" Lin Xiaoting spat out a mouth full of dragon blood and
then staggered to his feet on the shining floor. His face was
wild, and he insisted, "No! It’s not over! I can still fight!"
As he spoke, he again retched a mouthful of blood. There was
still much of Wu Yu’s sword qi lingering on his body, which
he had to purge.
"Enough."
He was the adopted son of the Sky Will Dragon King, and the
Sky Will Dragon King could not help but be concerned. The
Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon was snatched up by the
outstretched hand of the Sky Will Dragon King, who had flown
to him in an instant. He said to a dragon king by his side, "Take
him away and see to his wounds. He still has to compete for
third place in five days’ time."
"No!" Lin Xiaoting could not accept this result.
But it was no longer important, because no one cared if he could
accept it or not. All attention was on Wu Yu now.
The crowd’s expressions were interesting to watch.
Clap, clap! Wu Jun started to clap, beaming. "Wu Yu, you
performed really well. Congratulations. To think that someone
from the Primordial Immortal Empire could enter the grand
finals."
With him leading the applause, the Primordial Immortal
Empire all followed suit, as did a good number of others.
Only the Luminary Dragon King and a few others became even
more embarrassed, especially Ye Xuanyi. Wu Yu had defeated
Lin Xiaoting with his Luminary Celestial Dragon Mantra
Sword.
He had once said that one day, he would beat Wu Yu. It looked
like a joke now.
Clap, clap, clap, clap! More and more people were applauding.
Many mystical dragons paid respect to his strength.
Of course, it was a strange sight to see mystical dragons
clapping with claws.
The brothers Wu Jun and Wu Hao were over the moon.
"He’s guaranteed second place now."
"To think that this kid Wu Yu has such deep potential."
They were grinning widely. On the other side, the Sky Will
Empire, the Sky Shadow Empire, and the Sky Chariot Empire
were deathly silent.
There were three Hundred Empire Dragon Kings here, and their
children, including Tian Ming and Tian Zi.
Tian Zi was flustered. She had admired Lin Xiaoting, and now
she was afraid. She knew all too well that if she had been in
that battle, it would have been her that Wu Yu wiped the floor
with....

Who knew that Wu Yu was such a terror....

Before, she had looked down on him. Now, seeing his
composed expression, Tian Zi trembled slightly. She was
secretly glad now that she was not facing him.
As for the Sky Chariot Dragon King and the Tian Ming Dragon
Lord, their expressions were too thrilling to watch.
The father and son had been laughing pleasantly together,
discussing how they would celebrate Tian Ming’s complete
victory.
And now, Wu Yu had delivered another sound slap to their
faces.
Especially the Sky Chariot Dragon King. Ever since he had
humiliated Wu Hao this time round, Wu Yu’s every single
performance had been a counter slap to his face. And now, he,
the Sky Chariot Dragon King, was a bit of a joke himself.
It was like Wu Yu had crushed his standing.
Tian Zi had surrendered, but Wu Yu had casually beaten Lin
Xiaoting. This was a double blow to the father and son!
At this time, perhaps the Tian Ming Dragon Lord finally
acknowledged Wu Yu as a worthy opponent.
"Interesting! Very interesting! To think that I can meet such an
adversary in my second Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. Very
interesting indeed." The Tian Ming Dragon Lord laughed
coldly.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King laughed as well. "It seems like
Wu Jun and Wu Hao have placed their hopes on this Wu Yu to
stand against me. Very well, they have guts! But clearly no eyes
to see who the Sky Heart Tribe truly belongs to!"
He was embarrassed to the point of anger. It had been so many
years. Wu Hao and Ye Qianning’s union had been a devastating
blow to him when he was young, but things had gone smoothly
ever since. To think that this day would come, when Wu Hao
would again emerge and foil the dreams of his son in a crucial
battle. It was like declaring war on him.
It was like a sound slap to his face!
This truly made the Sky Chariot Dragon King furious.
"Don’t get too worked up. This guy can defeat Lin Xiaoting,
but he’s still some ways away from your son. After all, the
Immortal Lord Realm is a whole new level above Xuan
immortals," the Sky Shadow Dragon Queen stated mildly. Her
Tian Zi was already more or less guaranteed third place. Wu
Yu grievously wounding Lin Xiaoting had instead helped Tian
Zi.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King said, "That’s true. It’s time to let
these lively, hopping punks have a taste of despair. Ming Er,
the grand finals are in five days’ time. Do your best. If you can
kill him, don’t let him live."
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord said, "Father, do not worry. This
prancing clown skipped up to our doorstep and paraded his
antics around, making a fool of us. I will definitely teach him a
lesson, and also the meaning of the Immortal Lord Realm. Of
course, this will be the most painful lesson in his life. Because
perhaps he might never have another one."
The Sky Shadow Dragon Queen laughed. "Have you both gone
mad? Are you not going to consider the immortal backing
him?"
The Sky Chariot Dragon King said, "Enough. This is our
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm. It was he who asked for the
humiliation. No matter how strong the immortal backing him
is, they cannot fight on his behalf. That’s his own weakness. He
cannot blame others. Besides, we have the Nine Great Dragon
Emperors, and so many revered dragons. All of them are
Eternal Immortal Emperors. What immortal behind our backs
should we be afraid of?"
"Well, nothing is stopping you from taking that risk. Bear the
consequences yourself." The Sky Shadow Dragon Queen
clicked her tongue. After all, this had nothing to do with her.
Of course, the father and son knew that this was a risk, but they
could not swallow their anger.
The more he looked at Wu Yu, the angrier the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord got.
"I did not hesitate to wait 9,000 years to get 10,000 years in the
Tower of Dragon’s Dawn. I have waited 9,000 years just to get
first place.
"And yet such a person appeared and snatched first place on the
Giant Purgatory Pillar. He humiliated me and mine, and now
wants to snatch my 10,000 years in the Tower of Dragon’s
Dawn.
"If I don’t smash your corpse to smithereens, how can I be
satisfied?
"9,000 years is no short amount of time. How much I’ve
sacrificed in these years...."
Therefore, even without the Sky Chariot Dragon King urging
him on, he would definitely fight like a berserker in the grand
finals.
Five days of recuperation.
It was over in the blink of an eye.
Wu Yu had returned to the Primordial Immortal Empire camp,
to many cheers.
The mystical dragons wanted to throw him high up in the air.
The Primordial Immortal Empire was triumphant, stretching
their legs after being pressed down for so long.
In the history of the Primordial Immortal Empire, they had
never entered the top 100 before. Wu Yu had immediately shot
to second place.
"Actually, we’ll already be satisfied even if you’re in second
place. You’ll have shown the Sky Chariot Dragon King
already. His son taking the win will just be a meager scrap of
cloth for them to hide their faces behind." Wu Hao chuckled
gleefully.
"They were so rude to you. Best not leave them even that
scrap," Wu Yu said.
Wu Hao was a little stunned. He asked, "Are you really going
to go for it? You should know that Tian Ming has waited 9,000
years for this day. If you really win, it will be really cruel to
him."
Wu Yu said, "I don’t know what the result will be, but I must
strive hard. As for cruelty, I think that strength should prevail.
Since I joined, and since he could not stop me, that is his fate,
and not at all cruel."
Cultivation was plunder.
"In any case, I support you going for it. As for offending them,
we’ve been offended long ago. Since it’s offensive all around,
it doesn’t make a difference even if we were to do a bit more,"
Wu Jun said.
Ye Qianning said, "The most important thing is your safety."
"Please do not be worried. In this final battle, I will do my best,
but there will be no risk to my life either."
Seeing Luo Pin so relaxed, they, too, could be reassured.
She was used to seeing how bold and strong-willed Wu Yu was,
while everyone was equal parts enthralled and appalled by his
actions. Here in the vastness of the sky palaces, perhaps an elite
immortal’s legacy did not count for much.
But the combination of legacy and Heaven Devouring Titanic
Beast created an unprecedented miracle. This was the basis for
Wu Yu’s ability to pull off the other miracles.
Meanwhile, the others thought that he had been concealing his
strength.
During the five days, the heated gazes from the opposition side
were an intangible pressure.
The people of the Three Great Empires stared at Wu Yu, piling
on the psychological pressure.
The entire Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield was silent,
and this silence was the calm before the storm. It showed how
much the dragon kings were looking forward to the juniors’
fight.
However, there was an appetizer to be had before the big show.
That was the fight for third and fourth place. Tian Zi was
against Lin Xiaoting, who had returned from healing his
wounds. Lin Xiaoting was rather somber as he arrived,
evidently dispirited.
But in the end, the difference between the prizes was still quite
big, and they would definitely both give their best. But not
many people actually cared who took third or fourth place,
besides perhaps the Sky Will Empire and the Sky Shadow
Empire. To the others, third and fourth place were all the same.
"Big Brother Lin...." Xue Bingyi had been weepy-faced for the
last few days. Finally, she knew a moment of relief when she
saw Lin Xiaoting return safely.
Of course, she had been shocked that her hero, Big Brother Lin,
would lose so badly to Wu Yu. She had not been able to believe
her own eyes.
"You must beat her and take third place...."
If he could take third place, that would fulfill Lin Xiaoting’s
goal that he had set before. Even though he had lost the first
battle badly, it was still acceptable.
This appetizer was very quickly served, although not many
people were watching it with vested interest.
This fight was thrilling. Both were equally matched, and both
the Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon and the Mystical Palace
Thunder Dragon were ultimate mystical dragons. These two
ultimate mystical dragons fought in the skies and on the ground.
It was a great show, and the air was filled with a melee of purple
qi and lightning that flashed back and forth, turning the sky
smoky. It was a spectacular fight, and it roused the interest of
many!
Tian Zi bade her time, while Lin Xiaoting was freshly
awakened to his own failings. Neither wished to face two
consecutive defeats, and so they fought with great heart. They
showed no mercy. Although their battle was just the starter, it
was compelling. The battle dragged on, and the two massive
mystical dragons fought without one being able to take the
upper hand!
Finally, it was Tian Zi who outlasted him. Her long game paid
off. Through a combination of composure and wits, she took
down Lin Xiaoting with great difficulty. Of course, she was
also grievously injured herself, but she managed to hold out for
a while longer. Finally, she took the win, and an extra 1,000
years of cultivation in the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn with it.
That was quite the reward.
As for Lin Xiaoting, he had originally planned for at least 4,000
years in the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn, and now all he had was
1,000 years.
Their battle ended in great cheers because the mystical dragons
were eagerly awaiting this last battle. The grand finals!
Originally, they had thought that the four battles would not be
interesting. But Wu Yu had thrown a spanner in the works by
defeating Lin Xiaoting. The entire game had been changed, and
the remaining fight had become extremely thrilling. And of
course, the height of this wild ride was the Immortal Lord
Realm Tian Ming Dragon Lord, widely considered invincible
here, matched against the dark horse, the enigmatic Wu Yu.
After the Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon and the Mystical
Palace Thunder Dragon both withdrew, the mystical dragons
waited with bated breath as the Sky Will Dragon King stood up
and declared, "This Dragon Emperor Purgatory is finally in its
last moments. Next will be the two braves who have fought
their way to clinch the right to stand in the grand finals, where
the ultimate champion will be decided! Years from now, only
the champion will be remembered, while second place will be
quickly forgotten. And now, who will take the crown today?"
The Sky Will Dragon King’s words fanned the flames of their
excitement, and many dragon kings called out Tian Ming’s
name. He was the hope of the mystical dragon tribe. This was
about the mystical dragons’ pride. Besides the Primordial
Immortal Empire, who supported Wu Yu, the other mystical
dragons were still unwilling to see an immortal reign supreme
over all the mystical dragons as the grand champion.
How could the Sky Heart Tribe stand proudly if that happened?
All of these loud rumblings, these noisy shouts, they were all
intimidation calculated against Wu Yu. These were all Great
Void Immortal Realm dragon kings. They had all been
cultivating for hundreds of thousands of years.
"Sky Chariot Empire, Tian Ming, take the field!"
At the Sky Will Dragon King’s order, a Primordial Divine
Dragon descended from the sky, a peerlessly impressive
appearance when he landed on the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield!
This Primordial Divine Dragon was even more dominating
compared to the Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon and the
Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon. He had an even more kingly
air about him. He was born to crush the heavens and rule all.
Moreover, he had already reached the Immortal Lord Realm,
and his aura was even more special. It seemed like when he
lifted his hands and planted his feet, he could merge heaven and
earth itself. He looked so much wiser than Wu Yu to the ways
of the world and space.
"Primordial Immortal Empire, Wu Yu, take the field!"
When he called out Wu Yu’s name, there were no cheers, but
loud hisses. In the end, the mystical dragons used their attitudes
to show where their loyalties lay. Even though Wu Yu was not
from the Three Great Empires, he was still not a mystical
dragon. If he took the win, the mystical dragons would be
shamed.
Besides, the mystical dragons were also impressed by the Tian
Ming Dragon Lord’s tenacity in holding out for 9,000 years.
Such a mystical dragon deserved to reap rewards.
Amidst the hissing, Wu Yu rolled up to the battlefield.
Although his immortal body looked small, his aura was not at
all feeble. Even under the loud, threatening hisses, he could still
compose himself and stride forward while bearing the Tian
Ming Dragon Lord’s dominating aura. He streaked to the
battlefield like an arrow, arriving on the Dragon Emperor’s
Supreme Battlefield.
Right now, the only thing left in his world was the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord. Wu Yu knew that he had to focus extra hard.

Against such an opponent, there was no need to exaggerate. Wu

Yu could clearly feel how terrifying the power of his
opponent’s "autonomous realm" was. It was a force that was
hard to stand against. Therefore, he was not very confident in
this battle. But he had a strong urge to win, because he had to
get the Floating Dreams Sword!
Therefore, although this might be a grim battle with an
unknown result, Wu Yu vowed that by hook or by crook, he
would drive his opponent mad.
As for the Tian Ming Dragon Lord, he was naturally ready to
kill, and his intent showed blatantly on his face. His purpose
was very clear, and at this moment, he had probably forgotten
about the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn. He hated Wu Yu with a
passion, and he wanted to see him dead!
Before the battle, Wu Yu immediately used the Lawful
Embodiment of Heaven and Earth to turn himself into a 12-
zhang giant. This would allow him to at least stand against his
opponent’s physique. The size comparison was like a massive
python facing off against a monkey the size of an arm, because
Wu Yu had changed with the Immortal Ape Transformation. A
golden ape, brawny and savage, stood off against the
Primordial Divine Dragon. They somehow felt equally
matched.
"He’s an immortal beast? A type of monkey?" a mystical
dragon asked.
"No, it’s a shapeshifting technique that mainly helps to
strengthen the body." Many of the dragon kings could tell.
"This monkey appearance is really ugly. He can’t compare to
us mystical dragons."
"But of course."
"However, in terms of aura, he indeed barely manages to stand
against Tian Ming."
A mystical dragon, high above, staring down at Wu Yu with
murderous intent.
A golden immortal ape, eyes red on its feral face, ready to flip
the whole world on its head. He, too, stared at his opponent. On
the command from the Sky Will Dragon King, both would burst
into battle.
The winner would be the king. The loser would be the criminal.
The dragon kings and dragon lords could not wait.
"After you die, I will wed Luo Pin when she grows up. Our
children will definitely be Ancient Sky Heart Dragons. Perhaps
in the future, our Sky Heart Tribe will produce another dragon
emperor," Tian Ming said.
He spoke to Wu Yu alone.
"That’s very easily done. After you and your father die, I can
marry your mom and have a whole nest of Primordial Divine
Dragons." Wu Yu laughed.
It was impossible to aggravate Wu Yu this way. Wu Yu had
grown up in the mortal domain, so he had a rough and ready
manner.
"You should know how blasphemous the words you just said
were!" Tian Ming said tersely.
"And you should know to be quiet. Because losers should only
hang their heads and cry on their knees. They aren’t allowed to
talk." Wu Yu’s reply went even harder than he had.
"Very well. Very well."
A short exchange had completely flipped his anger switch up.
His 9,000 years of waiting, the agony and torment - they would
turn him into a mad devil today.
Finally, to great anticipation, the Sky Will Dragon King
declared, "The grand final may now begin."
This was like lighting a whole bunch of fuses up. The Dragon
Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield exploded into action.
Weng!
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord naturally burst forth, his killing
intent obvious.
"Realm of Fate!"
As expected, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord immediately
unleashed his Immortal Lord Realm’s ultimate move from the
get go.
Autonomous realm.
This was a realm he had created within his own body, a space
which belonged completely to him.
Right now, he was a 1-realm immortal lord. His autonomous
realm might not be big, but it would definitely suffice against
the likes of a Xuan immortal like Wu Yu.
He abruptly expanded the space within his body. Suddenly, an
ephemeral world of white bloomed out, with his body as the
core. It was five times larger than Wu Yu’s Immortal Cloud
Field.
The closer it was to his body, the more tangible it was,
becoming a real world that one could enter.
And at the edges, it got more and more hazy, until finally it
merged with the wide and real world.
This was an autonomous realm.
Wu Yu was currently trapped in the Realm of Fate.
An autonomous realm was a little like a field, such as Wu Yu’s
Immortal Cloud Field. And yet their fundamental natures were
different, and their strength differed as well. It was definitely
on a higher level.
And this world was within the intricate control of the
Primordial Divine Dragon.
"Submit!"
Suddenly, the world’s power flooded to its edges. With a single
thought from the Primordial Divine Dragon, the entire space
and all the energy pressed on Wu Yu. A terrible pressure built
against him, causing his body to be squeezed to the point of
cracking. If he did not quickly defend himself or flee, he would
definitely end up as a meat pancake.
CRACK! First, the leg of the Immortal Ape seemed to give
way, bending downwards.
"Kneel for me!" So it was Tian Ming controlling the power. He
wielded the Realm of Fate’s power against Wu Yu wholly.
Everyone looked at each other, and even Wu Hao was looking
uncomfortable. "Perhaps Wu Yu underestimated the power of
the Immortal Lord Realm. Ordinarily, the power of an Immortal
Lord Realm’s world is absolute against a Xuan immortal. Even
a 9-xuan immortal would not be able to last for more than 10
breaths of time. This is the enormous difference between the
Immortal Lord Realm and the Nine Xuan Dao Realm."
Wu Jun also said, "Wu Yu might have bitten off more than he
could chew."
Only Luo Pin was not worried.
As for the others, they smiled with relief. "I already said that
they’re not on the same level. Wu Yu can only be considered
the best among the Xuan immortals. Fighting against an
Immortal Lord Realm cultivator, his true colors will be
revealed."
Seeing this clash, the Sky Chariot Dragon King also grinned.
This was going as expected. Which meant that his son would
be the hero today.
Wu Yu was indeed tasting the terror of an autonomous realm’s
power. This crushing strength seemed to flatten his entire body,
and blood and fragments were flowing out of his mouth. These
might even be parts of his dragon and elephant buddha energy.
But this was just the start!
Somersault Cloud third tier, Fulgurating Shadows!
When the Tian Ming Dragon Lord sent the entire force of the
Realm of Fate to crush Wu Yu’s body, Wu Yu immediately
used Fulgurating Shadows, leaving everything behind him and
appearing behind the Tian Ming Dragon Lord.
"Spirit Chaser Art!"
Instantly, he vanished and then the Spirit Chaser Art struck!
The moment Wu Yu disappeared, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord
started. He was extremely flustered.
There were all too many people who were just as confused.
But he sensed the threat almost instantly. He hurriedly
redirected the power of the world behind him and blocked Wu
Yu’s Spirit Chaser Art attack!
His autonomous realm’s power was really incredible - it could
even block the Spirit Chaser Art. Besides that, it could change
shape at will, as expected of a world fully within his control.
"That mystique is not bad, but this is MY realm!" The
Primordial Divine Dragon again struck, the power redoubled as
it surged like a wave towards Wu Yu.
But this time, Wu Yu also easily dodged it!
Fulgurating Shadows continued to adapt, and the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord continued to throw the power of his world against
Wu Yu! As for Wu Yu’s counterattacks, they were all easily
blown off by the power of the world, even the Optics of
Immortal Expanse.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord was shielded by the entire world,
making it too difficult to harm him!
Wu Yu definitely knew that this was a sticky situation. The
power of his opponent’s realm came again and again. It was
impregnable. Although Fulgurating Shadows could dodge it, it
was still a close shave. His body was hurt to a certain extent,
and many of his golden hairs were flecked with blood.
In comparison, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord only laughed
coldly.
"How long can you flee so wretchedly for?"
Because his realm’s power was unlimited, he was not at all
afraid. His world was linked to the real world outside, and he
could continuously absorb energy from the world outside.
What was the Realm of Fate? It was a unique trait of Primordial
Divine Dragons. He could more accurately predict Wu Yu’s
attacks and where he would appear, and then attack or defend
preemptively. That was why Wu Yu had been in trouble from
the start!
Seeing the battle, the dragon kings could already more or less
predict the outcome. It was true that Wu Yu might have some
astonishing techniques, but the wide chasm between his and his
opponent’s cultivation level still defeated him.
Besides, it was a complete, total suppression!
Because Wu Yu was suppressed so hard, the battle was not
even that intense. The people who had been nervous now
sighed in relief. Because to them, the battle was no longer
interesting. Wu Yu’s defeat was only a matter of time.
Especially because at this moment, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord
not only used the power of his autonomous realm, but pulled
out something even more terrifying!
Destinable immortal treasure - City of 10,000 Swords and
Dragons!
A huge, life-like, white castle that one could actually live in. It
appeared above the Tian Ming Dragon Lord’s head!
And then the entire castle whirled, seeming to merge with his
Realm of Fate. As it spun, the 10,000 sword tips pointed to the
ground. No matter where Wu Yu fled to, as long as he was
within the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield, he would be
caged within this castle!
"And now, time for your doom."
The power of the realm combined with the terrifying killing
move of the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons.
Lifting his head, there were sword points everywhere. A
chilling scene! At this time, his opponent’s realm was filled
with killing intent!
Wu Yu was already in a desperate situation. When the City of
10,000 Swords and Dragons appeared, it announced his
demise! And the Tian Ming did not show a shred of mercy. The
City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons appeared, and the
destinable immortal treasure struck out with deadly force!
"Scum from the mortal domain! Go to hell!"
Instantly, the power of the realm and the City of 10,000 Swords
and Dragons activated simultaneously. All of the buildings in
the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons, every last brick and
tile, transformed into sword light. Led by the 10,000 sword tips,
they fell in a synchronized rain. The entire Dragon Emperor’s
Supreme Battlefield was swallowed up!

No matter where Wu Yu was, he could not possibly defend

against such an attack. Besides, Tian Ming’s realm power was
still pressing Wu Yu. The double hit would definitely finish Wu
Yu clean off!
Such poisonous methods announced Tian Ming’s intent to kill
all that were present. The power of a destinable immortal
treasure and a realm - that was overkill, but he was willing to
do it. And he had used all of his power in order to guarantee
Wu Yu’s death!
Otherwise, how could he vent his anger?
The crowd erupted.
"He’s going to kill Wu Yu!"
Wu Jun, Wu Hao, and Ye Qianning were all shocked. They
were extremely furious, and were on the verge of breaking the
rules to stop this attack. Of course, they knew that this would
bring them dire consequences in the future.
"Don’t move!" Luo Pin reacted quickly, holding them back.
"He’s fine," Luo Pin hurriedly clarified.
Being delayed a moment by Luo Pin like this, Wu Yu was
already engulfed within the rain of swords. Ye Qianning looked
at her in disbelief. "He’s fine after that?"
Luo Pin affirmed, "Don’t worry. If he did not call for help, he’s
fine."
Wu Jun and the others watched anxiously. In any case, they had
already missed the timing. It was all up to Wu Yu.
And besides cries of alarm or admiration at Tian Ming’s power,
obviously no one showed any inclination to save Wu Yu. Some
even celebrated his demise.
As for the Sky Chariot Dragon King, he was smiling, his face
composed. All of this was as he had imagined.
Besides, the revered dragons that were watching had not made
a move either. This meant that the revered dragons were
allowing it.
On the battlefield, no one knew the lethality of this move better
than Tian Ming himself. He had used direct strength to muscle
Wu Yu down, then the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons had
been brought to bear fatally against him. Such a tactic would
have destroyed even an opponent of his level!
"I’ve waited 9,000 years, you know! For you to fight me?! The
Sky Heart Tribe is our territory! You don’t know what’s good
for you! This result is of your own doing!
"My 10,000 years in the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn will not be
usurped by anyone this time. Especially not a no-name small
fry like you!
"As for the Primordial Immortal Dragon, I’m not kidding
either. How can my father’s regret be lived through once more
by me? Haha...."
Tian Ming continued to slash, laughing loudly. He was
confident that with the power of his realm and the City of
10,000 Swords and Dragons, Wu Yu was already disintegrated.
As for the spectating mystical dragons, no one thought
otherwise either.
Until one moment, when the Sky Will Dragon King suddenly
looked uncertain. He looked up. High up in the sky, far above
the perimeter of the Realm of Fate, he saw a terrifying beast,
blazing with black flames!
From his aura, he knew that it was Wu Yu. Only, it was a
different form of Wu Yu!
Through the black flames, he saw the real body of this beast. It
was an extremely savage beast, with black dragon scales, sharp
claws and fangs, and a snow-white horn. It had iron-like wings
of flesh and a spear-like tail. Compared to mystical dragons, it
might not be as traditionally majestic, but it looked even more
savage, darker, and more horrifying!
Such a huge beast had never been seen before. This was clearly
some demon immortal’s appearance, but its aura was full of
immortal qi. There were only traces of demonic aura and
ghostly aura.
When he appeared, the black flames were a sort of explosive
energy, where he was immolating his own power.
"What is that!?"
At that moment, everyone was shocked. They looked up, and
Tian Ming sensed it as well. When his attack ceased, he could
not feel Wu Yu’s presence. And then, suddenly, a threat came
from above him.
He looked up in shock!
In that moment, the nightmarish beast of black flames swooped
down!
It was as though the golden ape had vanished, and in its place,
a supreme, killing, titanic beast seething with killing intent
emerging out of the blue. In comparison, they had completely
different dispositions.
The former was ferocious, tyrannical, and rebellious, while the
latter was eerie, gruesome, and mysterious.
When the Tian Ming Dragon Lord saw Wu Yu’s new form in
his Realm of Fate, he was stumped for a moment. He was
intimidated by the savage aura at that moment.
Regardless, he was an ultimate mystical dragon!
"I don’t care what devilish form you take! You would still die!"
Anger exploded from the core of the Tian Ming Dragon Lord
as boundless power surged forth.
Many mystical dragons, including the dragon kings and dragon
lords, couldn’t believe the transformation that Wu Yu had
undergone.
"What is that...."
While doubts clouded them, Wu Yu descended from the sky
and clashed intensely with the Tian Ming Dragon Lord once
again.
Or rather, this was Wu Yu’s first counterattack. When he took
his current form and black flames blazed on him, he had
undergone a metamorphosis and was no longer the same as
before.
"Regardless of your various tricks, you are nothing more than
a contemptible clown in the face of absolute strength," the Tian
Ming Dragon Lord scoffed.
While Wu Yu was charging downwards, the Tian Ming Dragon
Lord threw his power of the world at him and manipulated his
destinable immortal treasure, the City of 10,000 Swords and
Dragons.
At this point, the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons flipped
once again. A majestic city with the top facing upwards went
crashing towards Wu Yu.
"Fissuring Sky Sword!"
Under the control of the Tian Ming Dragon Lord, 10,000
dazzling sword lights burst forth from the City of 10,000
Swords and Dragons before fusing into a razor-sharp, colossal
sword with the outline of the entire City of 10,000 Swords and
Dragons. It soared towards the sky, locked on to Wu Yu, and
lunged forward!
This move would definitely impress many senior dragon lords.
When they were still 1-realm immortal lords, they definitely
didn’t possess destinable immortal treasures and couldn’t
unleash such a destructive force.
"Can Wu Yu handle it? Or will he flee again?" At that split
second, many people had this thought in mind. This was
because before the current moment, Wu Yu could be said to
have been running desperately for his life under the suppression
of the Tian Ming Dragon Lord.
This instant passed swiftly!
Whoosh, whoosh!
That colossal sword was frightfully quick. Wherever it went,
even the space of the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm was
cleaved apart.
However, the crowd was surprised to see Wu Yu, who was
blazing in black flames, showing zero fear.
He continued in his path to meet that colossal sword!
They couldn’t believe how big his guts were!
And what happened subsequently was beyond their mental
acuity! Before the watchful eyes of the crowd, the giant body
suddenly spread into a black vortex!
That black vortex was exceptionally huge. The next instant, the
colossal sword of the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons
plunged into the middle of the vortex.
However, it didn’t emerge from the other end of the vortex.
Instead, it was as though the sword had crashed onto a fast-
rotating grinder, creating ear-piercing, grating sounds!
The ear-piercing, grating sounds were unbearable for countless
Xuan immortals present, and even the dragon lords furrowed
their brows!
Dazzling sparkles scattered in all directions!
"How is that possible!?"
The crowd could see the colossal sword getting shorter and
shorter, as though it was being worn off by a grinder. After
roughly three breaths of time, the colossal sword shattered and
was devoured by the black vortex!
Soon after, the black vortex spun in the opposite direction and
accelerated swiftly. Following a loud boom, the mystical
dragons were shocked to see a colossal, black sword shooting
out of the vortex and the vortex reverting into the black, titanic
beast ablaze in flames!
The colossal sword that shot out was larger and quicker than
before. Before anyone could react, it struck the City of 10,000
Swords and Dragons!
Rumble!
Countless buildings were destroyed and the floating city started
to tilt under the impact! The Tian Ming Dragon Lord, who was
below the city, was stunned. His City of 10,000 Swords and
Dragons had never sustained such severe damage!
However, this wasn’t the moment for him to lose his focus. The
black titanic beast was still descending like a comet, crossing
the tilted City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons with the
Luminary Celestial Dragon Mantra Sword in his hand. Within
a split second, he arrived in front of the Tian Ming Dragon
Lord, and 10,000 swords came slashing down!
"Power of the realm, block!"
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord was still reeling in disbelief, but
he still incited the power of the realm in a hurry to stop Wu Yu.
"Violent Art!"
Wu Yu was immolating to boost his own strength to the limit.
Together with the Violent Art, his arms grew unusually huge!
The Luminary Celestial Dragon Mantra Sword clashed with the
power of the realm once again! This time, Wu Yu shredded the
power of the realm with absolute strength.
Finally, he got to clash with the Tian Ming Dragon Lord
directly!
"What!?" The Tian Ming Dragon Lord’s eyes widened in
disbelief at the sight of Wu Yu’s incredible strength. This time,
Wu Yu ripped through his power of the world and stood right
in front of him.
"Immortal Cloud Field!"
Wu Yu finally found the opportunity. While the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord was still gathering the power of the realm to
protect himself, Wu Yu released his Immortal Cloud Field.
Although this wasn’t his autonomous realm, the Immortal
Cloud Field had its own amazing aspects!
The Primordial Divine Dragon was stuck within the swamp
instantly, while Wu Yu could still move freely through his
Fulgurating Shadows!
From above, the Sky Chariot Dragon King shouted, "Run,
now!" The group was initially at ease. However, when the
blazing, black, titanic beast showed up, the expression of the
Sky Chariot Dragon King changed. He was probably even more
anxious than Tian Ming and couldn’t hold himself back from
warning him.
Wu Yu’s swift and powerful movements had impressed most
of the dragon kings and dragon lords by now. Even Wu Jun
understood why Wu Yu was confident in clinching first.
When they saw Wu Yu trap Tian Ming with the Immortal
Cloud Field, the mystical dragons burst into an uproar. Wu
Yu’s counterattack to rip through the power of the realm before
using the Immortal Cloud Field, the apt use of various
mystiques, and his elite mental qualities were coordinated
perfectly.
After putting in so much effort to trap Tian Ming, there was no
way he would let him escape! When the power of the realm
surrounded Tian Ming again, Wu Yu would have few chances
to land his attacks again.
Moreover, Wu Yu was using Immolate. There would be a
definite end to it. Once Immolate ended, he definitely wouldn’t
be able to defeat the Tian Ming Dragon Lord.
Whoosh!
While the Tian Ming Dragon Lord was gathering his power of
the realm frantically to push aside the Immortal Cloud Field,
Wu Yu showed up next to him. The domineering Primordial
Divine Dragon and Wu Yu’s Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast
form faced off directly in close distance!
"Your doom...." Seeing Wu Yu’s ferocious side, the Primordial
Divine Dragon got a little anxious. Fortunately, he had gathered
sufficient power of the realm to push the surrounding Immortal
Cloud Field away slightly and could counter Wu Yu right
away!
At that split second, Wu Yu darted towards him. With his
Fulgurating Shadows, he came behind the Primordial Divine
Dragon and grabbed his tail with his huge and thick arms!
As an immortal beast, Tian Ming had always beens using
mystiques and immortal techniques rather than close quarters
combat. Clashes with physical strength had long been
eliminated. If others did the same, the Primordial Divine
Dragon could easily throw them out with his power of the
realm.
However, the one grabbing his tail was Wu Yu, who had insane
physical strength. After the first wave of impact from his power
of the realm, Wu Yu didn’t loosen his grip at all.
"Suicidal!"
The Primordial Divine Dragon struggled furiously while
culminating the second wave of attack. The City of 10,000
Swords and Dragons had also stabilized and countless sword
blades were locked on to Wu Yu.
"I’m smashing you into pulp!" Tian Ming naturally felt he was
shamed.
"Are you?" Wu Yu smirked. This was a sign of danger!
Immediately after, the mystical dragons saw something they
couldn’t believe!
Dragging the dragon tail, Wu Yu swung the Primordial Divine
Dragon around with his insane physical strength before
smashing him ruthlessly on the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme
Battlefield!
BOOM!
Amidst the loud boom were the sounds of bones cracking and
flesh smashing! Blood was scattered everywhere!
There was nothing spectacular about the Dragon and Elephant
Prajna Buddha Body other than its enormous strength, which
was greater than the combination of the dragon and elephant.
Each molecule of Wu Yu’s body now had eight mystical
dragons and eight giant elephants!
The surface of the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield was
close to shattering!
Even the land around it was shaking.
As for the Tian Ming Dragon Lord, he mourned tragically. He
had never imagined Wu Yu would use such primitive ways to
attack him!
This throw had humiliated him completely and knocked him
fuzzy.
"Go and die!" Countless sword shadows bombarded Wu Yu
from the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons under his control.
"Oh?" Wu Yu gave a cold smile. What was coming up next
would be the true craziness! As though he was possessed, he
grabbed Tian Ming’s tail tightly and smashed him ferociously
on the Dragon Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield in quick
succession!
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!
Within a second, he smashed Tian Ming at least seven or eight
times. Blood-curdling screeches came from the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord, and even his scales had ruptured, his horn was
chipped, and he even lost several teeth. In this state, he couldn’t
even control the City of 10,000 Swords and Dragons, let alone
the power of the realm.
The sword qi lost their target and plowed into the Dragon
Emperor’s Supreme Battlefield.
"Is this enough? You want another round?" Wu Yu laughed
heartily and smashed several more times. The sounds of bone
cracking were uncomfortably ear-piercing. At this point, the
Tian Ming Dragon Lord could only mourn in pain and probably
wanted to beg for mercy.
The change to this battle had come too abruptly. Moments ago,
the Tian Ming Dragon Lord had the absolute upper hand and
was toying with Wu Yu. However, this changed drastically
soon after, to the point that the Tian Ming Dragon Lord was
being tragically smashed around by Wu Yu - and it had only
been a few moments. People were still praising the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord when they saw him lying tragically before Wu
Yu, foaming at the mouth and twitching.
Many people couldn’t react to this. Almost all mystical
dragons, including Wu Jun and the others, had stiff expressions.
Watching the changes on the battlefield, they hadn’t reacted.
Gasps of exasperation and surprise could be heard frequently.
Wu Yu, with a foot on the Tian Ming Dragon Lord’s head,
turned towards the Sky Will Dragon King and said, "Dragon
King, it’s time to announce the outcome of the battle."
Before this, it was dead silent for at least ten breaths of time.
Even the Sky Chariot Dragon King didn’t utter a word.
"Uncle, you better protect him, or the Sky Chariot Dragon King
might do something out of anger," Luo Pin said to Wu Jun
urgently.
"Oh, yes." Wu Jun was still a little distracted, but he grasped
the truth of what Luo Pin was saying. Therefore, the moment
Wu Yu finished speaking to the Sky Will Dragon King, he
immediately moved, using an immortal technique to create a
halo of light around Wu Yu. He protected him, and dragged
him away from the Tian Ming Dragon Lord.
Wu Yu turned back. He knew that Wu Jun was protecting him.
His heart warmed.
At least in this battle, there were still those who remembered to
protect him.
Free of Wu Yu’s control, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord finally
tottered to his feet, but his heavy wounds laid him low again.
He collapsed to the floor, looking at Wu Yu with desperate
eyes.
"Sorry, you might have to wait another 9,000 years." Wu Yu
smiled at him. He had already changed back from his Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast form to human form. The battle was
already over.
Although he had immolated quite a lot of energy, he had
defeated the Tian Ming Dragon Lord. He might not even be
able to fight a 9-xuan immortal now, but it was worth it.
"I...."
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord could not understand. But reality
was reality, whether he accepted it or not.
"Wa!" He suddenly howled, his red eyes fixed in a dead stare
at Wu Yu.
"I will kill you! I will kill you!" He continued to rave. His
ramblings showed the depth of his hatred for Wu Yu.
But even so, a loss was a loss.
"I have never been afraid of any who lost to me," Wu Yu said
indifferently.
The other dragon kings and dragon lords were extremely
unsatisfied with this. As the mystical dragon tribe, they would
naturally feel a little ashamed. But they knew that the most
furious of them was the Sky Chariot Dragon King.
But Wu Jun had already protected Wu Yu.
BOOM!
Suddenly, the Sky Chariot Dragon King appeared by Tian
Ming’s side. If not for Wu Jun’s protection, the force of his
anger alone might have killed Wu Yu. For safety reasons, Wu
Jun immediately pulled Wu Yu back to his side after the Sky
Chariot Dragon King moved. This way, the Sky Chariot
Dragon King would be unable to touch Wu Yu.
After all, he had to respect the fair outcome of this battle.
"Father, I have disgraced you. I will take my life in apology!"
After the battle, Tian Ming, in his despair, could think of
nothing but suicide.
"Fool!" The Sky Chariot Dragon King stopped him. Of course,
he would not let his own son die.
He lifted his head to Wu Jun, Wu Hao, and Wu Yu, saying,
"Today, we were shamed. One day, I will pay it back to you
tenfold! Wu Jun, Wu Hao, Ye Qianning, Wu Yu, none of you
will be able to hide from me!"
Each word of his was filled with towering anger. He had
probably never dreamed that the puny Primordial Immortal
Empire would be able to grate his ego this way!
His son had waited and prepared for 9,000 years!
It was all wasted!
Wu Jun did not back down, "Sky Chariot Dragon King, you’d
better watch your attitude. Firstly, Wu Yu won the battle fairly,
triumphing over Tian Ming. This is no shame. The stronger
fighter should take the win. By your words, anyone who takes
the win has disgraced you? Is the championship already yours
by default? Secondly, we have all seen that the one who fought
to kill at every turn was the Tian Ming Dragon Lord, whereas
Wu Yu did not truly fight to kill."
Wu Hao smiled as well. "tSky Chariot Dragon King, don’t
overthink it. The Primordial Immortal Empire is very small.
Would we dare to humiliate you? If we met you, we’d only dare
to run and hide. This time, a member of the Primordial
Immortal Empire defeated Tian Ming. I think you had better
check your attitude, or others will think that you are a sore
loser."
Wu Hao had returned all of the humiliation back to him. No
man would be able to listen to the taunts of the Sky Chariot
Dragon King and feel fine.
Actually, Wu Yu had not aggravated the conflict. Given the
Sky Chariot Dragon King and Wu Hao’s enmity, he would
definitely always find trouble for Wu Yu. He could only do his
best to win back some pride for Wu Hao.
Listening to the brothers, the Sky Chariot Dragon King could
only smile. "Very well. I have remembered all of this. There
will be days to come. Let us see."
He took his own son back to the Sky Chariot Empire’s area to
treat his wounds. When they returned, the juniors all crowded
forth. Even Tian Zi was not as badly injured as the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord. They were all in shock - no one could believe that
Tian Ming had actually lost. He had waited 9,000 years, and
everyone felt that first place was a given. But now it had
actually gone to Wu Yu.
Until now, many of the dragon kings had remained silent,
unsure of what to say.
Perhaps only the Primordial Immortal Empire was in high
spirits, vilified. Of course, there were also some dragon kings
who knew that the Primordial Immortal Empire would be in for
a tough time from now on, because a vengeful Sky Chariot
Dragon King was still a force to be reckoned with. He was the
Sky Heart Dragon Emperor’s son, and there was nothing he
could not do....
They had not yet left, because the Sky Will Dragon King had
yet to make an official announcement.
At this time, everyone was looking at him, and the Sky Will
Dragon King himself was still reeling as well. However, he was
a little more composed than the Sky Chariot Dragon King, and
finally said, "Everyone has seen it clearly as well. The
Primordial Immortal Empire’s Wu Yu has indeed defeated the
Sky Chariot Empire’s Tian Ming. The victory is clear. I will
announce it.
"In this iteration of the Dragon Emperor Purgatory, the winner
is the Primordial Immortal Empire’s Wu Yu!"
At such a time, there should have been many cheers; however,
Wu Yu was an immortal, so the cheers were virtually non-
existent.
Next were the prizes.
Wu Yu had fought very hard, all for the Floating Dreams
Sword.
The prizes began from 10th place. All of the prizes were in
Sumeru Pouches. Of course, these were ancient immortal
treasure-level Sumeru Pouches, so they were very spacious.
"Sixth place, Azure Ginger Empire, Jiang Yan. Besides your
prizes, you are allowed to cultivate for 500 years in the Tower
of Dragon’s Dawn.
"Fifth place, Sky Chariot Empire, Yin Wu. Besides your prizes,
you are allowed to cultivate for 1,000 years in the Tower of
Dragon’s Dawn."
And then it was fourth place, Lin Xiaoting. His prizes were also
in the Sumeru Pouch, and he was allowed to cultivate for 1,000
years in Tower of Dragon’s Dawn. Although he had won a
prize, Lin Xiaoting could not muster any happiness.
Third place was naturally Tian Zi. She was allowed to cultivate
for 2,000 years in the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn. She was in
third place, slightly below what she expected.

"Second place, Sky Chariot Empire, Tian Ming. Besides your

prizes, you are allowed to cultivate for 4,000 years in the Tower
of Dragon’s Dawn."
4,000 years was enough for many to salivate over, but to Tian
Ming, it was salt in his wounds. It was an insult, because he had
also won 4,000 years before, but he had given up on it, choosing
to wait 9,000 years so that he could have 10,000 years.
But now he had failed again, and this was even more painful.
He had lost to Wu Yu, an immortal that he had not even taken
seriously.
And before everyone as well.
Finally, it was first place. Everyone was actually waiting to see
what the Sky Will Dragon King would decide.
In his hand, he held the final Sumeru Pouch. Wu Yu was an
immortal. Although he had the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Decree, he was not a mystical dragon. The Floating Dreams
Sword with 5 billion spirit designs - would it be given to Wu
Yu?
Bated breath.
They waited....
Actually, many were unwilling to see Wu Yu take the prize.
But rules were rules. What would the Sky Will Dragon King
do?
He gave the Sumeru Pouch a gentle shake and then placed it in
Wu Yu’s hand.
"He gave it to him!" There were exclamations of resentment. It
represented the glory that Tian Ming had dreamed of.
Therefore, many of the mystical dragons were looking sour.
But the Tower of Dragon’s Dawn cultivation....
The Sky Will Dragon King said, "This is the prize of the
champion. The champion should also have the chance to
cultivate in Tower of Dragon’s Dawn for 10,000 years.
However, the mystical dragon tribe has decreed that only
mystical dragons can enter Tower of Dragon’s Dawn to
cultivate. Therefore, I cannot give you the chance to cultivate
for 10,000 years. Besides, it would not be of use to you. Wu
Yu, do you understand?"
Wu Yu had actually foreseen this. Besides, he was not bent on
these 10,000 years either. He could improve very quickly in
10,000 years outside as well.
However, he still feigned some regret, and said, "I understand.
But I wish to ask the Sky Will Dragon King something. I was
wondering if I can be allowed to transfer this opportunity to
cultivate for 10,000 years to Luo Pin? She is a Primordial
Immortal Dragon, so her future is bright."
Wu Yu had already thought of this a while ago.
But the Sky Will Dragon King shook his head. "No, our tribe
has decreed that this opportunity can only be taken for yourself.
It cannot be gifted. Otherwise, it would be chaos."
Wu Yu had anticipated this. He had simply given it a try.
At this time, the Deep Dreams Empire’s dragon queen suddenly
stood up. "The nine great tribes have always had someone who
could cultivate for 10,000 years after each trial. This time, it is
the Sky Heart Tribe’s turn. If we left the 10,000 years empty,
that would be very unfair to us. Those that cultivate in the
Tower of Dragon’s Dawn will definitely be our future pillars of
strength. Therefore, I suggest that we should not disadvantage
ourselves. We should push the cultivation opportunity
backwards. Tian Ming will get 10,000 years, Tian Zi will get
4,000, and so on. The 11th place on the Giant Purgatory Pillar
will get 500 years of cultivation. The prizes will not change."
This suggestion benefited many. Therefore, many of the
Hundred Empire Dragon Kings spoke up in assent, supporting
the Deep Dreams Empire’s dragon queen’s view. Even Tian
Ming’s eyes lit up at this suggestion.
"Deep Dreams Empire Dragon Queen, your thinking is wise.
Big Brother, what do you think?" The Sky Chariot Dragon
King seemed to take this in his stride. Perhaps he had even been
the one who had spoken to the Deep Dreams Empire’s dragon
queen.
The Sky Will Dragon King was silent.
This was an important decision, and it would also benefit his
own child. Perhaps only the Primordial Immortal Empire
would be unsatisfied with this decision. Wu Yu had defeated
Tian Ming, and he did not wish for him to get the 10,000 years
of cultivation.
All depended on the Sky Will Dragon King’s decision.
Wu Yu was not very happy.
Why should the Tian Ming Dragon Lord, who he had defeated,
get his wish of 10,000 years?
The loser should not get the winner’s prize. Even if the winner
did not need it.
But when he looked at the Sky Will Dragon King’s expression,
he knew that he supported this, although it might be bending
the rules.
Wu Jun said, "They are a powerful force. Getting these prizes
is already enough for us. Be a little more open. Don’t press it."
Wu Yu nodded. "All right." Since he had already gotten the
Floating Dreams Sword, he could not be bothered with the Tian
Ming Dragon Lord.
Besides, there were also 10 destinable immortal talismans and
10 destinable immortal medicines, five of which were Genesis
Mystical Pills. There were also three Immortal Lord Realm
techniques. There were precious quintessences, immortal
kernels, and immortal essences, all of which had 1,000 spiritual
marks or more. Of course, most important was the destinable
immortal treasure, the Floating Dreams Sword.
Finally, the Sky Will Dragon King said, "I have consulted the
two revered dragons. This suggestion does not adhere to the
rules of the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm. It is not valid."
The mystical dragons sighed, and the Sky Chariot Dragon King
was angered anew. But Wu Yu was pleasantly surprised. He
had thought that the Sky Will Dragon King would decide
everything.
With this, the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory came to a full close.
The mystical dragons could leave now.
Wu Yu, of course, also wanted to go back quickly. He wanted
to explore the mystery of the Floating Dreams Sword and the
white dragon scale.
One word from the Sky Will Dragon King, and they could
leave.
However, at this time, he suddenly turned serious and called,
"Sky Heart Tribe’s mystical dragons, join me in paying
respects. I present the Empyrean Revered Dragon and the Fire
Mark Revered Dragon!"
There was general surprise that the two revered dragons, who
had observed from the shadows, would suddenly want to reveal
themselves after things had concluded!
All of the mystical dragons prostrated themselves on the
ground, and even Wu Yu took a knee. After all, these were the
greatest experts of the mystical dragon tribe. Wu Yu guessed
that they had surpassed the Great Void Immortal Realm and
were Eternal Immortal Emperors of legend!
They were the most fearsome beings in the entirety of the sky
palaces, the elite immortals that the Yan Huang Ancient
Emperor had spoken of!
They, too, had perhaps mistaken the immortal behind Wu Yu.
"Rise."
Above in the skies, a powerful voice rang out. Only then did
the mystical dragons lift their heads.
When Wu Yu lifted his, he felt his neck being pressed down.
So revered dragons could not be looked at directly. He saw that
there was a beast’s vague presence amidst white clouds. That
should be the Empyrean Revered Dragon, from the Sky Heart
Tribe. The other half of the sky was covered in flames. It was
the Fire Mark Revered Dragon from the Burning Life Tribe!
Actually, things would normally have ended here, and the two
revered dragons would not have shown themselves. Unless
there was some problem with the trial, some skulduggery? The
dragon kings and dragon lords were suspicious.
Wu Yu could not lift his head, and Luo Pin was by his side.
Both were in human form, and she reached out a petite hand to
hold Wu Yu’s. He could sense her anxiety. Wu Yu himself
could guess that their appearance had something to do with
him.
Could it be that they knew he had obtained the white dragon
scale?
Or had they seen through Wu Yu, and knew there was no
immortal behind him?
Or did they know the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal?
After all, they were the highest level beings.
There were many wild guesses running through his mind.
He could even sense that both revered dragons were looking at
him.
"What is the will of the two revered dragons?" the Sky Will
Dragon King asked.
One amiable voice said, "There is something we wish to ask
Wu Yu."
Shock all around. So it was about Wu Yu! The revered dragons’
appearance made even Wu Jun nervous.
"Revered dragons, please speak." Wu Yu was very brave.
Although he could not lift his head, he still dared to speak.
The friendly voice must have come from the Empyrean
Revered Dragon. He asked, "Your mystique. Which being from
the Heavenly Palace is it?"
Wu Yu held his breath. "Esteemed revered dragon, I do not
know myself. All this time, I have been trying to find clues.
Otherwise, I would not have come to the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm after ascending."
He refused to admit it.
This was also a gamble.
Against such mighty beings in the sky palaces, his frail power
would have to be gambled. He gambled that these two revered
dragons would also fear the immortal backing him, and would
not dare to do anything to him.
"It seems like that immortal does not wish to be exposed," the
Empyrean Revered Dragon said.
He seemed content not to pursue further.
"Let me ask you a second question." This was a much rougher
voice, probably the Fire Mark Revered Dragon.
He asked, "You are not an immortal, but some sort of twisted
immortal beast. You even have the aura of a demon immortal
and ghostly immortal. Let me ask you, do you know what
manner of immortal beast you are? By my knowledge, I have
never seen your like within the sky palaces before."
These words brought great alarm. Who would have thought that
Wu Yu was not an immortal, but an immortal beast? Not even
the dragon kings had been able to tell. Thinking back, that
golden Immortal Ape was definitely not an immortal beast, but
the black beast was! Only, they had been preoccupied with
other matters.
Wu Yu could only go with the flow. He replied, "Esteemed
revered dragon, I also do not know what manner of immortal
beast I am. But perhaps that is the reason the immortal chose
me."
His words sought to throw them into confusion. If they feared
the immortal in the shadows, they would hesitate to interrogate
him, for fear of offending that immortal. After all, this was the
sky palaces. The mystical dragon tribe was an excellent placed
tribe, but the sky palaces were ultimately controlled by the
immortals.
Those beings at the top were not beings that the Nine Great
Dragon Emperors could compare with. For example, the Jade
Emperor, the Queen Mother of the West, the Great Emperor of
Middle Heaven North Star, the Old Man of the South Pole, the
Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning, the Heavenly
Lord of Spiritual Treasures, the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord,
and many others.[1]
This reply also walked a tightrope.
After Wu Yu replied, the two revered dragons fell silent,
probably conferring amongst themselves.
The crowd was still very tense, as was Wu Yu. If they were just
a little bold, he could be finished. The Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm was no easy place to get along with.
Finally, the Empyrean Revered Dragon spoke.
He said, "Wu Yu, our kind have no ill intention against you.
But our mystical dragon tribe has our own rules. Do you know
them?"
"I am willing to listen," Wu Yu said. He had spoken very
politely. This meant that they were afraid of the immortal
behind him.

At least his life was probably not in danger.

The Sky Chariot Dragon King was listening with great
anticipation, and while hearing the courteous tone of the two
revered dragons, his heart went cold. Yet still he listened
eagerly to what the revered dragons would say.
The Empyrean Revered Dragon said, "We know of your
relationship with the little dragon Luo Pin. Our mystical dragon
tribe indeed has a precedent of marriage with superb immortals.
Immortals are the most influential within the sky palaces.
However, my tribe has virtually no precedent of intermarriage
with other immortal beasts. That is because other immortal
beasts are like rivals to us. Our immortal dragon tribe is the
foremost race amongst immortal beasts. We are unwilling to let
our tribe intermarry with immortal beasts. Before, I had thought
you were an immortal. I was surprised that you are an immortal
beast. That makes things different. As for my tribe, we have
never given immortal beasts Immortal Dragon Imperial
Decrees before. Therefore, I will take back your Immortal
Dragon Imperial Decree."
Wu Yu had not expected this turn of events. Otherwise, he
would not have shown the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast
body, even at the cost of defeat. The Heaven Devouring Titanic
Beast body was indeed considerably more powerful.
Immortals and immortal beasts were treated differently.
But that was understandable. The mystical dragon tribe was
proud. There were many immortals, and they governed the sky
palaces. They had to submit. But amongst the immortal beasts,
the mystical dragon tribe was the foremost tribe. Other
immortal beasts were competitors. Therefore, those like the
phoenixes and qilins were all rivals. That was why the mystical
dragon tribe could accept immortals, but not other immortal
beasts.
The Fire Mark Revered Dragon said, "This Dragon Emperor
Purgatory has ended. You may pack your things and leave.
Hereon, you are not allowed to enter the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm, or have special relations with Luo Pin. This is
not the mortal domain. Your affinity has been severed. We have
already set these rules, and must abide by them to answer to the
tribe. We are not purposely breaking you apart, but your union
indeed violates the rules of our tribe."
These words were like lightning bolts that struck Wu Yu and
Luo Pin.
The other mystical dragons, especially those from the Three
Great Empires, finally showed some laughter. Change is the
only constant, the wheel of fortune turns. Wu Yu had held the
upper hand until a moment ago, and now he was in trouble.
Even the injured Tian Ming could not help but laugh.
"How fate pays back! Haha!" Tian Ming snickered.
"Get out of the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm! Rotten
immortal beast!"
The mystical dragon tribe indeed looked down on other
immortal beasts. They were the undisputed leaders, and would
not abase themselves.
Many other mystical dragons finally smiled, their sullen faces
cast aside.
The grimmer Wu Yu’s face got, the more smug they felt.
This change shocked Wu Yu. Wu Jun and the others had also
not known that Wu Yu was an immortal beast. Therefore, they
had not considered this point.
But actually, Wu Yu was not an immortal beast. The Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast was a Spirit of the Universe. But it
was evidently difficult to tell apart now, and he could not
accurately say what he was either.
But they had put him down as an immortal beast....
"Wu Yu, if you meet your master, let your master know that the
mystical dragon tribe sends their greetings, and asks for his
understanding. Besides that, the rewards of the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory were earned by your own efforts. They
belong to you. We will give you five days’ time. In five days,
do not appear in the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm again,"
the Empyrean Revered Dragon said.
They had made their decision.
Wu Jun quelled his anger and frustration. Their hands were also
tied. Rules were rules, and could not be broken.
Wu Yu held tightly onto Luo Pin’s hand, fingers interlaced. At
this time, Luo Pin suddenly said, "Revered dragons, I wish to
ask. You said before that we had ‘virtually’ no precedent of
intermarriage with other immortal beasts. ‘Virtually’ implies
that there are precedents?"
She was still thinking calmly.
Ye Qianning seemed to recall something. She said, "That’s
right! I recall that 700,000 years ago, there was a Dark Wing
Phoenix King who married one of our dragon lords. He even
held a marriage ceremony in the Sky Heart Tribe, and the Dark
Wing Phoenix King was given an Immortal Dragon Imperial
Decree. He worked on our behalf for many years, until the
dragon lord came to an unfortunate cultivation accident and
died. Only then did the Dark Wing Phoenix King return to the
Eternal Phoenix Tribe. He must be an Eternal Immortal
Emperor by now?"
Her memory was good. After all, this was a very romantic
story. Besides her, many other dragon kings also recalled this.
She was not making things up.
"This...." The Empyrean Revered Dragon was stumped.
This was proof that there was a precedent of marriage between
other immortal beasts with the mystical dragon tribe.
Moreover, this precedent was rather well-known.
The Empyrean Revered Dragon and the Fire Mark Revered
Dragon didn’t have a negative view of Wu Yu. They were
simply following the rules and had the face of the mystical
dragon tribe as their first priority.
Therefore, to prevent the relationship between Wu Yu and Luo
Pin from getting deeper, they wanted to revoke his Immortal
Dragon Imperial Decree and force Wu Yu to leave this place.
The best scenario was to stop them from ever meeting again.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King and others were extremely
gratified at this decision.
Even though the mystical dragon tribe had no intention to
offend the immortal behind Wu Yu, their pride and confidence
were still extremely strong. Chasing Wu Yu off was indeed the
best decision for them.
Doing so wouldn’t offend that immortal and would still
preserve the tradition of the mystical dragon tribe.
After all, Luo Pin was an ultimate mystical dragon with a bright
and limitless future ahead.
When Ye Qianning raised the query, the two revered dragons
were stumped for a moment. This was because they had almost
forgotten about the precedent.
Ye Qianning said respectfully, "Since there is a precedent and
Wu Yu similarly has a bright future ahead and is willing to
serve our Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm, we hope both the
revered dragons would grant them their wish."
Wu Yu was really grateful. He needed someone who had a little
more weight to speak up for him at this point.
The two revered dragons didn’t say a word but were discussing.
They were probably thinking of a more rounded way to send
Wu Yu out of this place.
At this point, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord had recovered
slightly. He mocked, "The Dark Wing Phoenix King was an
Immortal King-class immortal beast. Only those at that level
who are willing to serve our Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm
would qualify to be with our mystical dragon tribe! What is Wu
Yu?"
"Yes!"
The crowd burst into laughter.
One was a true and true Immortal King, while the other was
just a xuan immortal from the mortal domain. Even though Wu
Yu had performed outstandingly, he still couldn’t be compared
with an Immortal King.
It was his words that had given the Empyrean Revered Dragon
a plan. The Empyrean Revered Dragon said, "If both of them
are in love, share the same dreams, and destiny has brought
them together, it isn’t entirely impossible. However, they still
can’t break the rules of our mystical dragon tribe. Therefore,
Wu Yu, you still have to leave our Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm because you are an immortal beast. However...."
He paused for a moment to keep Wu Yu on tenterhooks. After
a brief moment, he continued, "If there’s a day you become an
Immortal King like the Dark Wing Phoenix King and are
willing to serve our Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm with your
strength, I believe no one, including us, other revered dragons,
or even the Nine Great Dragon Emperors would stop you." The
precedent with the Dark Wing Phoenix King was now raised.
Previously, the two revered dragons had claimed that there was
no precedent. Now that it was shown otherwise, they couldn’t
act too haughtily and make Wu Yu resent them. The truth was,
they weren’t too concerned about Wu Yu resenting them, they
were worried that the immortal behind Wu Yu was too
powerful and would see this as the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm making things difficult for Wu Yu. To eradicate future
problems, they came up with this plan. It wouldn’t push him
into taking desperate action if all opportunities were completely
cut off.
That was if Wu Yu had the strength equivalent to an Immortal
King, they would allow him to marry Luo Pin.
The Great Void Immortal Realm wasn’t easy to reach. For
example, Wu Hao and the rest had taken at least three yuans to
reach this realm. Even 300,000 years was considered quick.
If Wu Yu wanted to marry Luo Pin, he could come back in
hundreds of thousands of years.
This was roughly their intention.
During this long period, many things could have changed. For
example, teenagers might fall in love with others, Luo Pin
might be attracted to another young mystical dragon, or perhaps
Wu Yu might be killed when moving around. Therefore, the
Empyrean Revered Dragon and the Fire Mark Revered Dragon
thought their plan was perfect.
"In fact, we can give you our promise now. If you secure a Mark
of an Immortal King and become an Immortal King, we will
host your wedding within the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm
personally for you. However, before you secure this, don’t step
into the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm and break our rules,"
the Empyrean Revered Dragon said.
Clearly, he had agreed to this because he assumed that this
would at least be several tens of thousands of years from now.
Moreover, the path to becoming an Immortal King was fraught
with obstacles. Wu Yu might never attain that level. Through
the long river of time, changes could be drastic. Perhaps both
of them would forget about each other by then.
This response was so apt that even the Sky Chariot Dragon
King and the rest couldn’t hide their smirks. They were glad
that the Empyrean Revered Dragon was their uncle and covered
all grounds without exception when dealing with the matter.
Once Wu Yu left the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm, Tian
Ming would have countless opportunities over the tens of
thousands of years.
The Empyrean Revered Dragon was the biological younger
brother of the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor.
The truth was, if Wu Yu had not inherited a legacy from an
immortal that was very likely at the Eternal Immortal Emperor,
they might’ve just hurled Wu Yu, the "immortal beast,” out of
this place. The arrogance of the mystical dragon tribe wouldn’t
allow them to accept other immortal beasts loitering in their
territory.
Hearing this decision, Ye Qianning furrowed her brows. She
said, "Revered dragons, this decision is too brutal for both of
them. Becoming an Immortal King will take endless years.
Even hundreds of thousands of years wouldn’t be unexpected.
This...."
At this point, Wu Yu stood beside her and whispered to her to
stop speaking. He understood that this "judgment" was
extremely daunting. If he wanted to be with Luo Pin openly and
fearlessly, or even have the wedding in the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm, it might not be a hopeless dream, and it might
not take too long.
Therefore, he surprised everyone’s expectations. He turned to
the two revered dragons and said, "I’m thankful to the two
revered dragons for giving me this opportunity. Regarding the
request, I will work hard to achieve it once I leave the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm. On the day I succeed and return to the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm, I hope both revered dragons
will honor the promise. All the dragon kings and dragon lords
present today shall be my witnesses!"
An uproar erupted. Wu Yu was really an ignorant brat. The two
revered dragons had clearly given him a goal that would take
such a long time that everything could change. Yet he had
agreed to it so readily! Was he doing so on impulse?
This was like contending with the two revered dragons on
account of a personal grudge!
"He’s still too young and impulsive after all! Old ginger is still
spicier than new. In that case, Wu Yu doesn’t have much hope."
"You are right. Too many things can change in hundreds of
thousands of years. Even the most outstanding immortals might
not become Immortal Kings."
If Wu Yu was second and hadn’t shined so brightly that he had
embarrassed the mystical dragons, there might not have been
as many people picking on him.
On the side of the Three Great Empires, Tian Zi, Lin Xiaoting,
and Tian Ming had gathered together. At this point, they
exchanged glances and smiled.
"Who would have thought that he was so easy to fool. How
dumb is he?" Tian Zi said.
"Hehe." Tian Ming scoffed. He had other thoughts in mind.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King said, "That brat is too lucky and
therefore a little dumb! Let him be. Great Void Immortal
Realm? In hundreds of thousands of years, he might not even
remember ever visiting the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm."
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord shouted suddenly, "Wu Yu, I’ve
underestimated you and was unlucky to lose to you today. Let’s
have a bet to see who will reach the Great Void Immortal
Realm first!"
When the words resounded through the crowd, the contest on
who could advance quicker in cultivation instantly piqued the
interest of the crowd.
However, Wu Yu didn’t even take a look at him. He simply
smirked and didn’t give a response. Perhaps on the day he
became an Immortal King, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord might
still be at his current cultivation level.

Wu Yu’s arrogance infuriated the Tian Ming Dragon Lord once

again. He could only say disdainfully, "You don’t even have
the guts to accept the challenge. In my eyes, you will never be
able to return to the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm."
This was also the thought that the majority had. How hard was
it to become an Immortal King and return to this place?
Regardless, Wu Yu wanted the two revered dragons to honor
their promise. The Empyrean Revered Dragon agreed readily.
"Words spoken are past recalling. We naturally will honor our
words. However, there’s another point to note. Even if you do
become an Immortal King, if Luo Pin forgets about you, falls
in love with someone else, marries someone else, or is no
longer in love with you, we can’t fulfill our end of the promise.
After all, this is something that has to be mutual."
Wu Yu understood what he meant. They were certain that Luo
Pin was still young and would forget about Wu Yu over the
long period. However, when his eyes met Luo Pin’s eyes, they
could see incomparable determination. This was sufficient for
Wu Yu to say with utmost confidence, "Revered dragons, you
all can be assured that I will not force her."
Wu Yu would want to remain in the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm forever to be with her. However, destiny was playing
tricks on him and he was being forced to leave this place now.
He could only accept the arrangement. However, he believed it
wouldn’t be long until they met again.
To obtain the Mark of an Immortal King and become an
Immortal King.
An Immortal King could control a level of heaven and
possessed sufficient strength to rule a level of heaven! For
example, the Green Lotus Immortal King.
On the Green Lotus Sky, various immortals were under the rule
of the Green Lotus Immortal King. At that place, the Green
Lotus Immortal King was the emperor of the Green Lotus Sky.
There was also the Golden Fate Dragon King, who ruled the
Dragon Immortal Sky.
With that level of strength, one was considered an elite
existence throughout the sky palaces! Throughout the
Heavenly Domain, one would probably be among the 10,000
greatest immortals!
Moreover, from the words of the revered dragons, they hadn’t
mentioned entering the Great Void Immortal Realm. All they
said was getting the Mark of an Immortal King and becoming
an Immortal King.
An Immortal King would also have an official title.
Once one got a title, it wouldn’t matter if he was at the Great
Void Immortal Realm. As long as he had fighting strength
equivalent to those in the Great Void Immortal Realm, he
would be considered an Immortal King!
Therefore, Wu Yu wouldn’t even have to enter the Great Void
Immortal Realm before he could return.
The Empyrean Revered Dragon said, "In that case, the promise
is sealed. I’ll give you five days to bid your farewell. Wu Jun,
remember to revoke his Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree.
This Dragon Emperor Purgatory Trial has ended, everyone may
go back."
Wu Jun nodded.
"Farewell, revered dragons!"
The dragon kings and dragon lords chanted in unison. When
they lifted their heads, the two revered dragons had already left.
Wu Jun had some doubts in mind, so he didn’t waste time
loitering around. He gathered his people and set off on the
return trip.
"Wu Yu!"
From the direction of the Sky Chariot Empire, the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord shouted once again. This drew the attention of the
crowd.
Wu Yu turned around and looked at him nonchalantly.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord smirked and said, "I wish you
good luck on dragging your old body back here after countless
years and becoming an Immortal King. When that day comes,
I’ll send you to hell!"
"I’m afraid you won’t live till then." Wu Yu was lazy to speak
to someone he had defeated.
The changes that took place throughout the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory Trial were too huge. Wu Yu getting chased away
after he was crowned the champion was seen by many as
extreme joy turning into sorrow.
Therefore, the mystical dragons from the Primordial Immortal
Empire didn’t know if they should be satisfied. Similar to Wu
Hao, they felt gloomy.
Having come to this outcome, Wu Yu went to talk with Luo
Pin first.
He couldn’t go against the will of the revered dragons.
Furthermore, he knew that if it wasn’t for the "immortal behind
him," those two revered dragons wouldn’t have been so
courteous with him.
Therefore, he didn’t hold much bargaining rights.
Making the two revered dragons give their promise to not stop
and even host the wedding personally for them was already a
huge opportunity for Wu Yu.
Luo Pin leaned against him while they held hands with their
fingers locked.
Luo Pin looked at him gently and said, "This isn’t that bad.
Overall, this won’t take too long for you. Moreover, the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm has limited land and is full of
restrictions. Remaining here wouldn’t do any good for your
becoming stronger. Your improvements over the past seven
years were way lower than what you gained in the one year in
the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. Therefore, you are still best
suited to roam the vast world outside. As for me, I’ll continue
being a dragon baby in the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm
and cultivate in peace."
"But I can’t bear to part with you...."
With such a beautiful and gentle lady with him, Wu Yu truly
wanted to stick with her at all times and enjoy her presence.
"Fool, we aren’t separated by death! We can always
communicate through Immortal Message Talismans.
Moreover, with your abilities, sneaking in shouldn’t be an
arduous task, right? Furthermore, becoming an Immortal King
shouldn’t be difficult for you either. When the time comes,
even the two revered dragons will have to honor their promise.
No one will stop us from being together ever again." Luo Pin
knocked his head.
Just as she had said, if Wu Yu took the form of Ao Ding, who
could possibly see through the Replicate ability of the Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast? Even if the revered dragons could,
they couldn’t possibly stay within the Primordial Immortal
Empire for surveillance at all times!
Moreover, Immortal Message Talismans could reach the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm as well. Although they
couldn’t be together, communication at any time wouldn’t be
an issue.
To put it simply, although they had to be separated for some
time, the impact wouldn’t be that huge. Moreover, both of them
would stand to gain from the separation. This outcome wasn’t
too bad.
Naturally, Wu Yu still abhorred the arrogance of the two
revered dragons and the mystical dragons from the Three Great
Empires that had constantly chimed in. It was especially so for
the Sky Chariot Dragon King and the Tian Ming Dragon Lord.
Perhaps the Tian Ming Dragon Lord thought that he stood a
chance.
He even wanted to compete with Wu Yu on cultivation speed.
However, this was just his wishful thinking.
The current Wu Yu was almost ready to start preparing to
secure a Mark of an Immortal King.
However, Wu Jun, Wu Hao, and Ye Qianning couldn’t help but
be worried for him.
Wu Jun asked, "They want to separate you guys for such a long
time. Why aren’t you afraid at all?"
"Yeah. Even we feel they have gone overboard." Ye Qianning
was puzzled.
On the other hand, both of them looked rather relaxed.
Luo Pin answered, "Uncle and Adoptive Parents, you guys
wouldn’t have to worry. We understand what it means. Wu Yu
is more suited to roam the outside world. Moreover, he has the
means to visit me at any time. We can also keep in contact with
Immortal Message Talismans. Let’s just sit back and wait. It
will definitely take a far shorter time for him to become an
Immortal King than you guys expect."
Luo Pin had said this with conviction.
"Are you sure? Immortal King isn’t that simple...." said Wu
Hao.
Wu Yu nodded and said, "I’m certain. You guys don’t have to
worry. Since I dared to agree to it, I definitely have a solution
in mind."
Wu Jun interrupted, "Did you just say you could sneak in at any
time?"
Wu Yu nodded and said, "Did you guys forget that I entered
this place without leaving a trace the very first time I was here?
That is also a trick that I learned from my legacy."
As long as it concerned the immortal behind him, the trio would
believe it.
Seeing Wu Yu and Luo Pin so confident, even though they felt
worried, they were more at ease. The truth was, they also knew
Wu Yu was someone that required adventures. Remaining in
the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm wouldn’t be suitable for
him.
Moreover, their relationship didn’t seem vulnerable to the
passing of time at all.
Wu Yu had some queries in mind that he wanted to clarify with
them while returning to the Primordial Immortal Empire.
When he was in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, he had
devoured a number of immortals and mystical dragons.
However, they were all at the Xuan Immortal Realm.
Therefore, he didn’t know much about the Great Void Immortal
Realm.
What he knew was some ambiguous knowledge. For example,
he knew that the Mark of an Immortal King was a type of elite
great void immortal treasure!
Great void immortal treasures were above destinable immortal
treasures, with at least one billion spirit designs. Wu Yu had
experienced the might of a destinable immortal treasure. It
wasn’t at the same level as an ancient immortal treasure. Wu
Yu experienced this with the City of 10,000 Swords and
Dragons of the Tian Ming Dragon Lord.
"It seems like every 9-realm immortal lord has to use a great
void immortal treasure-class treasure to serve as their Mark of
an Immortal King. This allows them the qualifications to enter
the Great Void Immortal Realm. Does one have to use it as a
foundation and fuse it into one’s body to reach the Great Void
Immortal Realm?"

The Mark of an Immortal King seemed to be the foundation

and core of the Great Void Immortal Realm.
Wu Jun answered, "You are right. Anyone who wishes to reach
the Great Void Immortal Realm has to get a Mark of an
Immortal King. The Mark of an Immortal King is strictly
limited and different from other immortal treasures. Other
immortal treasures only vanish if destroyed. However, a great
void immortal treasure-class Mark of an Immortal King
vanishes once it is used by the cultivator to ascend to the next
cultivation level. To a certain extent, the speed of forging a
Mark of an Immortal King determines the speed of birth of
Immortal Kings throughout the entire sky palaces."
Wu Yu had never expected there to be such a strange
cultivation level. At this moment, he didn’t know much about
the Great Void Immortal Realm. After all, he only had four
immortal dao marks and was still blurry about the Immortal
Lord Realm. He had lots of room to explore still.
Great void immortal treasures could be used for millions to
even billions of years. However, there would be one fewer
Mark of an Immortal King whenever someone became an
Immortal King.
Therefore, they had to be constantly forged.
Wu Jun continued, "When one transfers his autonomous realm
into the great void, the physical body won’t be able to withstand
it. One would need the one billion to 10 billion spirit designs in
the Mark of an Immortal King to stabilize and fuse with the
physical body so the physical body and one’s autonomous
realm can be transferred into the great void at the same time to
form the structures of immortality. One could also say that the
Mark of an Immortal King is the most important foundation for
one to become an Immortal King. It determines which level one
will reach and which heavenly order one will be in contact with.
Therefore, there’s a grading classification of Marks of an
Immortal King.
"A First Grade Mark of an Immortal King has 1 billion spirit
designs, while a Second Grade Mark of an Immortal King has
2 billion spirit designs, and so on till ninth grade, which has 9
billion spirit designs. The higher the tier, the further one will
advance in the Great Void Immortal Realm and the stronger
one will be. Since the Mark of an Immortal King can only be
used once, the tier of the Mark of an Immortal King becomes
extremely important. Typically speaking, an Immortal King
that uses a First Grade Mark of an Immortal King won’t
advance far in the Great Void Immortal Realm. On the other
hand, those that use sixth grade and above Marks of an
Immortal King will have the chance to eventually reach the
level of an Eternal Immortal Emperor. When the time comes,
you have to remember not to just take anything that comes to
you. You have to secure the best Mark of an Immortal King that
you can get within your abilities."
Wu Yu understood. Although he didn’t understand what he
meant by transferring the autonomous world to the great void,
he understood the portions about the Mark of an Immortal King
being the foundation of the Great Void Immortal Realm and
their tiering differences. He also understood that great void
immortal treasures were extremely precious.
Most likely, it would be extremely difficult for one to obtain
one.
He wanted a direction for his future, or at least know how to
secure a Mark of an Immortal King. Therefore, he asked Wu
Jun, "Where can I find a Mark of an Immortal King?"
Wu Jun answered, "Those who can forge Marks of an Immortal
King in the sky palaces are least Eternal Immortal Emperors.
In our mystical dragon tribe, there are several revered dragons
and dragon emperors that can forge a Mark of an Immortal
King, yet we are barely getting by. However, we don’t have the
most elite tiers.
"Only some frightening immortals’ families and elite
immortals could forge the best Mark of an Immortal King."
Throughout the 8,000 Sky Palaces, there aren’t many who
could forge Marks of an Immortal King. However, ordinary
immortals still had the opportunity to get Marks of an Immortal
King. This was because heavenly rules and restrictions were
formed countless years ago. Some elite immortals would
provide Mark of an Immortal Kings to a place known as the
Immortal King Supreme Palace, which would then distribute
them to various immortals. Naturally, the Immortal King
Supreme Palace was also forging a large number of Marks of
an Immortal King.
"Some elite immortals also forge a Marks of an Immortal King
for their descendants and disciples directly.
"As for ordinary immortals, they can purchase Marks of an
Immortal King at a hefty price if they are fortunate. However,
these Marks of an Immortal King are often outrageously
expensive and require several great void immortal treasures in
exchange.
"There is also the possibility of finding one in ruins or as
treasures left behind by some immortals. Those that find one
are really, really lucky.
"As for the majority of ordinary immortals, they have to go
through the selection in the Great Void Immortal Path with
battles and competition to get Marks of an Immortal King from
the sky palaces distributed through the Immortal King Supreme
Palace. Marks of an Immortal King of this kind have a unique
characteristic. The immortals that use these Marks of an
Immortal King are crowned as Immortal Kings directly, are
allocated territory, and become officials of the sky palaces. In
our mystical dragon tribe, there are also many who serve the
sky palaces. Therefore, it wouldn’t clash with your objective to
return to the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm.
"These four avenues are basically the most common. Among
them, getting a Mark of an Immortal King through the Immortal
King Supreme Palace makes up at least 95%. The Marks of an
Immortal King that the three of us have were obtained through
internal competition within the mystical dragon tribe. They
were all forged by dragon emperors or revered dragons. You
could say that this is similar to the elders of the family forging
them for the descendants."
Wu Yu understood immediately.
He said, "Therefore, the most logical way for me to get a Mark
of an Immortal King would be through the Immortal King
Supreme Palace. That place represents the sky palaces, and the
Jade Emperor distributes these Marks of an Immortal King.
However, one has to go through the trials and competition to
have the right to get one. Is the place of the trial and competition
the Great Void Immortal Path?"
Wu Jun nodded and answered, "Whenever the Immortal King
Supreme Palace opens up the Great Void Immortal Path, it is a
grand event that stirs the blood of the sky palaces. Moreover,
the most elite immortals could even get the best Marks of an
Immortal King of at least seventh grade or even eighth grade!"
Wu Yu could easily imagine immortal lords from all over the
8,000 Sky Palaces entering the Great Void Immortal Path and
battling it out to secure their Marks of an Immortal King.
The numbers would definitely be astronomical.
Only by emerging from the crowd could one become an
Immortal King.
An Immortal King was a symbol of honor and would enjoy
great respect and authority in the 8,000 Sky Palaces.
Not everyone had elders or seniors that would prepare or gift
them a Mark of an Immortal King.
Nonetheless, the precedent for using the Mark of an Immortal
King was still to become a 9-realm immortal lord first.
Therefore, the Mark of an Immortal King and the Immortal
King Supreme Palace were still a little too far from Wu Yu. For
now, they would be his major goals.
The Great Void Immortal Path would basically gather the
strongest experts below the Great Void Immortal Realm from
all over the sky palaces.
"Where is the Immortal King Supreme Palace?" asked Wu Yu.
He believed it had to be a place that 9-realm immortal lords
could reach.
"It isn’t too high, it is located on the 5,000th level of heaven,
the Sublime Gracious Sky."
5,000th level of heaven... Wu Yu thought about it and knew
that ordinary immortal lords could reach that level. He believed
he would be able to enter soon if he pushed himself a little
further.
Therefore, entering the Sublime Gracious Sky wouldn’t be a
big issue for now.
Wu Jun’s eyes gleaned with passion as he said, "In the past, I
wanted to wander the Great Void Immortal Path too. It was just
that the timing wasn’t right. The Great Void Immortal Path is
only opened once every 5,000 years. I couldn’t wait further and
therefore competed internally within the mystical dragon tribe
to obtain my Mark of an Immortal King. The Great Void
Immortal Path is truly the place where adventurous heroes
gather and compete! It is also the place where higher quality
Marks of an Immortal King can be found!"
He had missed the opportunity.
That was indeed a place that could light up one’s passion.
Wu Jun looked at Wu Yu and said, "Your future is limitless,
you should definitely compete in the Great Void Immortal Path
in the future. Do you know that the one ruling the Immortal
King Supreme Palace is one of the Five Directional Divine
Emperors, the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor? The
Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor has been around for
a long time, almost as long as the Jade Emperor! He’s one of
the oldest and strongest immortals in the sky palaces, even
stronger than our Nine Great Dragon Emperors.
"It is said that he also forged Marks of an Immortal King
personally and deposits them into the Great Void Immortal Path
for anyone who has an affinity to it."
Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor!
Regarding the sky palaces, Wu Yu only knew about the highest
existence, the Jade Emperor from the Spirit of Heaven Jeweled
Hall. He was the ruler of all the sky palaces.
However, there were also countless experts and ancient
immortals in the sky palaces.
Now Wu Yu wasn’t surprised that the 5,000th level of heaven
was named the Sublime Gracious Sky. So it was the territory of
the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor.
This title was also filled with dominance.
He didn’t know how high the positions of the Five Directional
Divine Emperors were. Wu Yu searched his memories and
learned about the other four of the Five Directional Divine
Emperors. They were the Three Continents, Ten Islands
Celestial Dong Hua Great Emperor Lord; the Central Ecliptic
Great Yellow Horn Immortal; the Northern Mysterious
Spiritual Dipper Empress; and the Southern Guanyin Empress.
Just their titles alone were enough to intimidate others.
Moreover, every single one of them was more incredible than
the Nine Great Dragon Emperors. Wu Yu even wondered if the
Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal was close to their level! They were
the true rulers of the sky palaces and had held supreme for
trillions of years!
A Mark of an Immortal King was truly precious, and this was
likely why it was managed by one of the Five Directional
Divine Emperors, the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine
Emperor.
"Before the Great Void Immortal Path opens each time, 100
million Immortal King Tokens are issued. Only those that hold
Immortal King Tokens have the right to enter the Great Void
Immortal Path when it opens. The competition for the Marks of
an Immortal King always starts with the competition for the
Immortal King Tokens. There are only 100 million slots, but
countless people want them. Therefore, despite them having a
price, there isn’t a market. If one ever comes up for sale, it
would require top end destinable immortal treasures in
exchange. Even getting an Immortal King Token is an
extremely difficult task," Wu Jun said.
He wasn’t anxious, as he was just helping to prepare Wu Yu
mentally. If Wu Yu wanted to return to the Immortal Dragon
Imperial Realm openly in the future, he would definitely have
to enter that place.
All of a sudden, Wu Hao received an Immortal Message
Talisman. His expression darkened and he said, "Wu Yu, lady
luck isn’t shining on you."
"Did the Great Void Immortal Path open recently?" Wu Jun
asked. He had been a dragon king for a long time and therefore
hadn’t paid attention to the Great Void Immortal Path. He could
only roughly remember that it would open once every 5,000
years.
Wu Hao shook his head and said, "That’s not it. There’re still
21 years until the Great Void Immortal Path opens. The
competition for the Immortal King Tokens are likely to be
ending or has ended. Moreover, your current strength isn’t
sufficient to compete in the Great Void Immortal Path.
Therefore, you might need to wait 5,000 years for the next
round to enter."
"21 years? If I can get an Immortal King Token within 21 years,
will I be able to enter?" asked Wu Yu.
Wu Hao explained, "That’s right. However, in the Great Void
Immortal Path, 6-realm immortal lords are the norm. However,
they are largely cannon fodder and are just in it to broaden their
experiences and prepare for the future. Those that have secured
Marks of an Immortal King in the Great Void Immortal Path
are 99% elite 9-realm immortal lords."
Wu Yu understood that even if he devoured constantly and
frenziedly for 21 years, he still wouldn’t become a 9-realm
immortal lord. However, the Great Void Immortal Path would
last for 100 years. In that place, he would have sufficient time
to get stronger. Therefore, Wu Hao might feel that Wu Yu was
unlucky and would have to wait for 5,000 more years.
However, Wu Yu believed that his luck was perfect. If he had
to wait for more than 1,000 years, he would probably have to
pause his progress for a period.
Snatching an Immortal King Token within 21 years shouldn’t
be an arduous challenge. Regardless, Wu Yu would head to the
Sublime Gracious Sky to assess the situation. He believed that
that place would likely be rather lively by now.
"What are your plans?" asked Wu Jun.
Wu Yu answered, "Since I have no other places to visit, I will
go take a look at the Sublime Gracious Sky and try my luck. If
I make a decision, I will inform everyone through Immortal
Message Talismans."
"That works too. If you are lucky, get in first. If luck is really
on your side and you get an Immortal King Token, you can
cultivate slowly while waiting to become an Immortal King,"
said Wu Jun. He was still very confident in Wu Yu.
Wu Yu was determined to enter the Great Void Immortal Path
this time.
Even 100 years was too long for him.
After all, he wasn’t even 100 years old yet.
Wu Yu had basically asked all of the information he wanted.
Regarding other matters, he had some understanding as well.
He also had something more important in mind.
When the group returned to the Primordial Immortal Empire,
Wu Jun gave Wu Yu a large number of Immortal Message
Talismans so they could keep in contact at all times.
The Primordial Immortal Empire was now under the limelight.
However, Wu Jun understood they had to keep a low profile
moving forward. After all, the Sky Chariot Dragon King and
others were still nursing a grudge.
The news of Wu Yu defeating Tian Ming had now spread
across the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm. All the mystical
dragons in the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm would likely
recognize Wu Yu as someone who had dashed the dreams of
the grandson of the Sky Heart Dragon Emperor after he waited
for 9,000 years.
Rumor also had it that Wu Yu was the inheritor of a mysterious
immortal.
"I will leave you guys alone. Feel free to look for us if you need
anything."
When they arrived in the Primordial Immortal Empire, Wu Jun
and the rest gave Wu Yu and Luo Pin personal space. Wu Yu
was also waiting for this moment.

They were in the depths of Qin Yin Peak, shrouded in silent

mist.
Luo Pin was a little nervous as she asked, "Seeing that you are
in such a hurry, what did you find in the Dragon Emperor’s
Purgatory?"
"I don’t know. I got a white dragon scale and then a voice told
me to start with the Floating Dreams Sword. I might have to
form a blood bond with the Floating Dreams Sword first."
"Alright." Luo Pin sat by his side while waiting silently.
Wu Yu didn’t have the mind to check out his other prizes,
which included destinable immortal medicines, Immortal Lord
Realm techniques, and more. Instead, he searched for that
sword at the first instant. It had a snow-white blade like white
jade and looked simple and natural. The style was very similar
to the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
In fact, they did look like they were a set.
"Destinable immortal treasures are indeed different."
Before he formed the blood bond, it felt extremely heavy in his
hands. It was as though every molecule of the Floating Dreams
Sword was surrounded by spirit designs. Swinging it casually
made Wu Yu feel like he could slice through everything,
including Qian Kun Space. Wu Yu had just swung it around
casually and the space around him was ripped. It took some
time before the fabric of space was mended.
As for mountains, rocks, or rivers, they would be easily split
with a single slice.
It was especially sharp.
What did it mean by destiny? Miracles like slicing through the
space in the sky palaces was a form of destiny.
This destinable immortal treasure had 500 million spirit designs
and was even more frightening than the City of 10,000 Swords
and Dragons. Other destinable immortal treasures would likely
tear from a single slice.
Basking in Luo Pin’s gentle gaze, Wu Yu focused on forming
a blood bond with the Floating Dreams Sword!
With her by his side, Wu Yu felt especially at ease.
"May you have greater gains from this," Luo Pin thought to
herself. She wasn’t willing to part with Wu Yu, and the past
period was the most blissful time she had ever experienced.
However, she still felt that wandering the outside world would
fit Wu Yu’s personality better.
"You know that I also wish to be as strong as you and wander
the world with you. Once, you gave your all to catch up to me.
But now, I can no longer catch you."
At the thought of this, although Luo Pin wasn’t dejected, she
still felt a little regret. For this relationship, she thought it would
be great if she could contribute more.
Wu Yu took two days to form a blood bond with the tough
Floating Dreams Sword.
The main reason was because the spirit designs within it were
too numerous and too complicated. Compared to the Luminary
Celestial Dragon Mantra Sword, he had 10 times as many spirit
designs to understand.
After gaining an understanding of this destinable immortal
treasure, he was stumped. This was because its power had
exceeded the level Wu Yu had imagined.
This destinable immortal treasure had two variations. The first
was known as the Blink Slayer Design. Its uniqueness lied in
its speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness.
The other was known as the Great Fissure Qian Kun Design.
This was also the source of its compelling slicing ability.
Casually waving the sword could tear through Qian Kun Space.
If it was carelessly placed on the ground, it would fall through
2,000 levels of heaven and into the mortal domain, causing
misery and sufferings to the living creatures. Therefore, one
had to control the Floating Dreams Sword carefully at all times.
It would be easy to use it for ripping through anything.
At the same time, it greatly enhanced Wu Yu’s battle strength.
Regardless, the more important thing to Wu Yu for now was
what the Floating Dreams Sword could bring to the white
dragon scale.
Wu Yu had followed the reminder he received when he was
leaving the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory by obtaining the
Floating Dreams Sword and successfully formed a blood bond
with it.
"How do I activate the white dragon scale with the Floating
Dreams Sword?"
Wu Yu took out the white dragon scale for the very first time.
Taking a closer look, he realized that the dragon scale wasn’t
complete. The edges looked frayed and it looked like it had
been removed from a severely injured body.
The feeling it emanated was ancient and it seemed to be from a
faraway period.
The Precursor Dragon Scale that Luo Pin once obtained was a
dragon scale left behind by a Xuan immortal-class mystical
dragon. The power encompassed in it had brought Luo Pin back
from the brink of death.
However, the Precursor Dragon Scale wasn’t anywhere near
the same level as the white dragon scale that Wu Yu had in his
hand.
Wu Yu was certain that even Wu Jun and others would
definitely not recognize what this was.
Now he was researching the white dragon scale with Luo Pin.
Luo Pin noticed something. "There seems to be some words on
it."
Wu Yu took a closer look and indeed found four miniature
words on it. Each word was as small as a speck of dust.
Wu Yu took some time before deciphering the words as "Eight
Division Heavenly Dragon."
"What is an Eight Division Heavenly Dragon?"
Luo Pin shook her head and replied, "I don’t know. I haven’t
heard of it either."
Wu Yu knew this definitely had something to do with the Eight
Division Heavenly Dragon Hall that had appeared in the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory out of nowhere. However, the
Eight Division Heavenly Dragon Hall had been destroyed by
Tian Ming.
"If the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon is a species of mystical
dragon or the name of a mystical dragon, this scale likely
belonged to it."
"That should be it."
Wu Yu started experimenting.
First, he tried it with the Floating Dreams Sword. For example,
he tapped light on the scale or injected immortal energy into the
Floating Dreams Sword before tapping on the white dragon
scale.
After trying several methods, including dripping his own blood
on the white dragon scale, he still didn’t see any reactions or
differences.
"Didn’t it say that the Floating Dreams Sword could activate
it?" Wu Yu felt aggrieved. He had tried all means he could think
of, but to no avail.
"I feel like we can take a little risk. After all, what do you think
is unique about the Floating Dreams Sword?" asked Luo Pin.
"Slicing and its sharpness." Wu Yu was enlightened.
Luo Pin was really acute and asked him to maximize the
Floating Dreams Sword to split the white dragon scale.
"If this is really a divine treasure, it can’t be destroyed by me.
If this method doesn’t work out, I clearly have no other means
to make it work." Wu Yu nodded.
He controlled the white dragon scale to hover in the air while
gathering strength in his body. In a burst of strength, the
Floating Dreams Sword tore through the space above before
landing on the white dragon scale!
"Dang!" Wu Yu’s arm and sword were deflected, while the
white dragon scale remained as it was.
"Did I do it wrongly?"
"Not necessary. Perhaps you are still lacking strength."
In that case, Wu Yu wouldn’t hold back further. He used the
Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth to enlarge himself to
the limit. At the same time, he even used the Violent Art. With
all his Bodhi immortal energy and dragon and elephant buddha
energy, he swung ferociously on the white dragon scale!
Ssss!
Wu Yu finally felt like he succeeded. The white scale was split
into two halves before his eyes, and a ray of white light burst
out from it. The white light morphed into the form of a subtle,
shadowy mystical dragon that was only the size of a segment
of his pinky finger, and it danced before his eyes.
"What is this...?" Wu Yu was pleasantly surprised. He put away
all other things and was about to stop the shadow dragon from
escaping.
To his astonishment, the miniature shadow dragon was
unexpectedly quick. Just as Wu Yu was about to make a move,
it retreated upon seeing him. When it turned around, it saw Luo
Pin instantly. The next instant, it dived into the space between
Luo Pin’s eyebrows with breakneck speed, leaving no trace
behind.
Wu Yu was a little anxious, but he had a feeling that the Eight
Division Heavenly Dragon wouldn’t harm her.
Luo Pin shut her eyes and seemed to be a little drowsy. Faint
light glowed from her body and something started changing
within her. Wu Yu wanted to check on her when she waved him
off and signalled to Wu Yu not to disturb her.
Wu Yu could only stand where he was while observing the
minute changes happening to Luo Pin. It was especially
apparent in her demeanor as it underwent a mysterious
transformation. Wu Yu’s heart was thumping. This was
because he was the one who had brought the white dragon scale
here, but it had entered Luo Pin’s body instead. No one knew
what it was or what would happen....
However, it didn’t seem like Luo Pin was in danger. Therefore,
he controlled his anxiety for now. After roughly an hour, she
opened her eyes abruptly. When Wu Yu met her eyes, he was
a little shocked. This was because he could sense from her an
aura that was similar to his Invincible Vajra Body.
It was mysterious.
When Luo Pin opened her eyes, she had an intoxicated smile
on her face. She was elated and even jumped up in joy. Tears
were rolling in her eyes and almost streamed down. She hugged
Wu Yu forcefully, pulled Wu Yu towards her, and pushed his
head down on her soft and gentle skin. After which, she
exclaimed, "I don’t know how I could ever thank you. The
chance encounter you’ve brought to me could change my life
forever...."
Wu Yu was enjoying the gentleness and aroma and couldn’t
bear to leave. He asked blankly, "What? What are you saying?"
Luo Pin pulled him upright and held his face before ferociously
kissing him. She blinked her eyes flirtatiously and said, "I’m
saying I really love you."
"I still can’t get used to your sudden confession! What
happened...?" Seeing how elated she was, how she disregarded
her image, and how open she had become, Wu Yu knew
instantly that the white dragon scale had brought her a
mysterious encounter.
Luo Pin kept him in her embrace, placed her head beside his
ear, and spoke softly, "That white little dragon fused into my
immortal spirit and became part of me. When that happened, I
heard a voice saying he was my ancestor and that his title was
the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon. I was fated to become the
inheritor of his legacy."
"The legacy of the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon?" What
kind of existence was the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon?
Wu Yu had devoured many people, but he didn’t know
anything about this name. If he was really powerful, why didn’t
anyone in the mystical dragon tribe talk about him. For
example, who wouldn’t know about the Nine Great Dragon
Emperors?
"And then?" asked Wu Yu.
Luo Pin answered, "And then there’s nothing. However, I
believe the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon should be related
to the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal, Marshal Tian Peng, and the
Curtain Lifting General."
Her face blushed like she was drunk - perhaps because she was
too excited. She hugged Wu Yu tightly, perhaps partly because
she didn’t want to part with Wu Yu soon.
"Why would you say so?" Wu Yu was still enjoying her gentle
yet forceful embrace. This was something that he would miss
dearly.
Luo Pin continued speaking into his ear. "I received two other
cultivation arts out of nowhere. One of them is called the Eight
Division Heavenly Dragon Avatar and the other is the Archaic
Divine Dragon Emperor Mantra. Aren’t these similar to your
Invincible Vajra Body and the Great Way of Immortality Art?
Or Ye Xixi’s Hell Incarnation Avatar and the Ten Wheels
Bodhisattva Ghostly Immortal Mantra?"
Invincible Vajra Body!

Nine Cycles of the Imperial Immortal Body!

Hell Incarnation Avatar!
Eight Division Heavenly Dragon Avatar!
Wu Yu was stumped. After some time, he finally reacted and
was overjoyed. He ended up using his thick and muscular arms
to hold her slim waist, pulled her into his embrace, and
exclaimed, "That must be it! The Eight Division Heavenly
Dragon was definitely the fourth companion of the group!
Although we don’t understand why they would leave behind
their legacies and vanish without a trace, it is apparent that the
voice probably sensed my Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal legacy.
Therefore, it prompted me to bring that white dragon scale out.
We are close and you are talented as well. Therefore, it chose
you."
"Those are my thoughts too.... Perhaps from today onwards,
there might be hope in me catching up to you...." Luo Pin was
moved to tears. This was the moment that changed her life.
Previously, she was feeling extremely stressed and anxious
deep down from seeing Wu Yu advancing at great speed. How
else could she catch up? Was she destined to merely be
protected? She had almost resigned to fate. It was only now that
she vented these emotions.
She placed her arms around Wu Yu’s neck and refused to let
go.
Tears welled within her eyes and her cheeks were rosy, making
her seem especially attractive and intoxicating. As she was too
excited previously, her body was also exuding heat. She had
never shown this feminine side of her to Wu Yu.
In Wu Yu’s embrace, Luo Pin said weakly, "You are holding
me too tightly...."
"I don’t want to loosen my hands. I’m too excited." Wu Yu
looked at her and was totally lost in her eyes. His immortal
spirit was still largely in the form of the Heaven Devouring
Titanic Beast. He had only suppressed his impulse to procreate
with the help of the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
Within the Floating Dreams Pagoda, the Full Moon of Nanshan
and Ye Xixi heard their conversation.
Ye Xixi cried too and said, "This is perfect. Big Sister Luo Pin
is the best. Big Brother Yu should be very happy to see her
receive this mysterious encounter."
The Full Moon of Nanshan said, "He isn’t just going to be
happy. Look at how intense the atmosphere is right now. I’ll
take your surname if they don’t do anything that children
shouldn’t see within the next ten breaths of time."
Ye Xixi was a little enraged. "What a prurient guy! Can you not
fill your mind with vile thoughts...."
While Ye Xixi was still speaking, Wu Yu shut the Floating
Dreams Pagoda. This left the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye
Xixi in the dark, staring at each other.
The Full Moon of Nanshan burst into laugher and said, "As I’ve
said!"
Ye Xixi could only gnash her teeth and said to the white cat in
her embrace, "Lazy, let’s not care about them. Time to sleep! I
mean cultivate!"
They naturally understood the reason why Wu Yu had closed
the Floating Dreams Pagoda off.
The buried sorrows before they parted ways...
The release of pent up stress and the joy that Luo Pin felt after
she received this mysterious encounter...
Amidst the attraction of Wu Yu and the impulse to procreate
from the Heaven Devouring Titanic beast...
All of these left them in a state of intoxication.
Their hearts were racing.
Luo Pin’s cheeks reddened and she said flirtatiously into the
ear, "Wu Yu, I can’t wait till the day we are married. I want you
now."
She was proactive, decisive, and domineering. Wu Yu had long
been waiting for this moment. There was no way he would miss
this opportunity!
Therefore, on Qin Yin Peak, which was shrouded in immortal
fog, they had the best time of their lives.
"Those two kids are shaking the whole place up. Let’s go out,
give them some space." Ye Qianning was both amused and
embarrassed.
Wu Hao’s expression was a little stiff. After all, this was his
own daughter, even though she was adopted. However, he also
knew that the relationship between Luo Pin and Wu Yu far
exceeded his own connection. He could not command her.
Therefore, under Ye Qianning’s urging, the two left Qin Yin
Peak, granting the pair their freedom.
Qin Yin Peak was covered in immortal fog, a sea of fog that
continued to undulate under the strong and steady rhythm
which persisted for a long, long time.
The culmination of excitement and parting sorrow drove their
lovemaking to a mad and desperate extreme. It was like a
torrential rain that fell freely, heavily, noisily. It shook the earth
itself.
It was so intense that Qin Yin Peak itself was shaking.
The beauty and intensity of this day was such that Wu Yu could
not forget it.
After that day, they lay on a boulder near a burbling waterfall.
Luo Pin was soft in Wu Yu’s arms, nestled down in blissful
sleep, a smile on her lips. The queen who had once ruled the
mystical dragon tribe in the mortal domain had now been taken
by Wu Yu.
As for Wu Yu, he had never been as relaxed as he was right
now. He was, of course, happy for Luo Pin. After he left, she
could continue to grow with the Eight Division Heavenly
Dragon, a legacy on par with Wu Yu’s, save the Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast. But with enough time, Luo Pin’s
future would also be bright.
The only difference was that the Eight Division Heavenly
Dragon did not seem to have a weapon. For example, Wu Yu
had the Ruyi Jingu Bang, while Marshal Tian Peng had the
Supreme Gold Harrow, and the Curtain Lifting General had the
Demon Banishing Jeweled Staff. But the Eight Division
Heavenly Dragon was probably a true immortal beast that
relied on his Natural Mystiques. Therefore, Luo Pin’s final
Natural Mystique would probably be an incredible force.
"With this, no one can change the fact that we are truly
immortal lovers, destined to be together in the sky palaces." Wu
Yu played with her long hair, and she was slowly roused from
sleep.
Luo Pin stretched lazily, and her slender curves stirred
something in Wu Yu. One look at him and she knew he was up
to no good. "Don’t let your thoughts stray. Before we get
married, it’ll be just this once. Next, you’ll have to work hard
to come back and marry me."
"Don’t worry. Just for the magic of yesterday, I will hurry to
accomplish it." Wu Yu grinned.
Wu Yu was once the prince of Dong Yue Wu, and then
Emperor Yu, so he should have had countless concubines, but
he had only known such pleasures after becoming immortal. As
for Luo Pin, it went without saying that no one had even
touched her hand before Wu Yu.
"A wicked tongue. I’ll beat you!" The two bantered for a while,
and Luo Pin said, "I’ve already given myself to you. From now
on, you’re not allowed to do anything with other girls.
Otherwise, I’ll find a way to castrate you."
"Don’t be like that... so dominating...."
"I’m not dominating, but you’re mine and mine alone now,"
Luo Pin said.
Wu Yu smiled. "Don’t worry. No one is more beautiful than
you in this world." He was not a loose person. Besides his brief
fling with Nangong Wei in his youth, he only had Luo Pin in
his heart, and no one else.
Although five days had not yet passed, Wu Yu knew that he
should leave. There would still be much time together in the
future, so there was no need to cling to each other now. It would
only make the parting even sadder.
Wu Yu opened the Sumeru Pouch. "Do you see this? 100,000
Immortal Message Talismans. 50,000 each for us. That will last
a long time."
Perhaps these 100,000 Immortal Message Talismans could
assuage their longings.
"Perhaps I’ll be back even before they’re used up," Wu Yu said.
Luo Pin understood as well. She would not let Wu Yu leave
hurriedly at the last moment. Their greatest pent-up feelings
had already been released. Now she vowed to channel her
feelings properly. The next time Wu Yu came to find her, she
would have her own accomplishments.
She straightened Wu Yu’s clothes for him in a motherly
fashion. Finally, she smiled brightly. "Alright, say your
farewells to my uncle and adoptive parents and then go on your
way. Go seek your Immortal King path."
"Alright."
Wu Yu wanted to hug her and hold her forever. But he had to
leave. Sinking deep into longing would only make parting more
painful. They were both extremely lucky. Both he and Luo Pin
wished to keep this parting casual. After all, it was but an
ordinary farewell.
After being unable to locate Wu Hao and Ye Qianning in Qin
Yin Peak, they sent an Immortal Message Talisman and learned
that they were at Wu Jun’s. They headed over and saw that all
three seniors had a knowing look in their eyes. Luo Pin blushed.
Wu Yu was bolder, tugging her along. He addressed all three.
"Wu Yu has come to bid you goodbye. I thank all three seniors
for your care towards me, as well as taking care of her."
Wu Jun waved a hand. "Go in peace. We will continue to
protect her and take care of her. After all, she is the daughter of
our house."
Wu Yu was rather at ease with Luo Pin staying here. After all,
she was a princess here in the Primordial Immortal Empire.
"Wu Yu, you have a prudent nature, so you need no words of
advice from us. In any case, no matter what rash decision you
may make, always remember that Pin Er is here at the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm, awaiting your glorious return," Ye
Qianning said.
Wu Yu nodded. He would bear that thought well.
"We will see you off."
"No need. It is but a casual parting. I will return soon." Wu Yu
again thanked them.
Without them, Wu Yu would not have been able to win the
Eight Division Heavenly Dragon’s legacy for Luo Pin.
"Alright. We will await your good news." Wu Jun was very
confident in him.
After parting, Wu Yu also had Luo Pin stay with them, and not
see him off.
"Mm." Luo Pin nodded obediently. She also understood that
Wu Yu needed a clean break to proceed with peace of mind.
The more longing she revealed, the more his thoughts would
linger. He would be unable to grow undistracted.
"Go, then."
"Wait for me to return."
"Alright, I will wait right here. I won’t go anywhere."
Wu Yu snuck a last few looks at her, searing her image into his
mind. And then he turned, leaving quickly.
How could he not have lingering feelings or affection? When
Wu Yu turned to leave, the tears Luo Pin could no longer hold
back spilled from her eyes.
In a flash, Wu Yu vanished in the clouds.
"Child, don’t be sad. With this parting, it might be quite
difficult to meet again. But he is a responsible person. He
knows what he needs to do, and has set his goals. I don’t think
he will disappoint you." Ye Qianning came over to console Luo
Pin.
Luo Pin stemmed her tears and shook her head. "I’m not
worried that he won’t be able to do it. I’m just unwilling to part.
I’ve grown accustomed to his company."
Wu Hao sighed. "I also hope that he will not take too long to
return. After all, those animals at the Sky Chariot Empire are
eying Pin Er like hungry tigers."
Wu Jun gave a cold laugh. "That will depend on whether Tian
Ming still wishes to wait another 9,000 years. Otherwise, he
will enter Tower of Dragon’s Dawn for 4,000 years. That
would be a matter for 4,000 years from now."
Ye Qianning said, "Then we must hope that Wu Yu delivers
within 4,000 years."
Wu Hao shook his head. "That’s pretty tricky. Because the next
Great Void Immortal Path will open in 21 years. And the next
time it will be 5,000 years after that. A Mark of an Immortal
King is very precious. Given his outsider status... unless the
immortal backing him gives him a Mark of an Immortal King."
They continued to discuss this, but Luo Pin did not join in. She
knew that Wu Yu’s goal would definitely be the Mark of an
Immortal King battle in 21 years, and not the one after that.
It would last for 100 years.

This meant that Wu Yu might return in 121 years. And they

would not need to wait for 4,000 years.
But even if she told them now, they would not believe it either.
On the way back.
Luo Pin asked Ye Qianning, "Adoptive Mother, do you know
what the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon is? Wu Yu said that
in the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, he saw a strange place
called the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon Palace."
"Eight Division Heavenly Dragon? Sounds a little familiar, but
I can’t put a finger on it. Why?"
"Oh, nothing much. He was just a little curious. Why would
there be a ruin in that barren land...."
...................
"Hey, you can close the Floating Dreams Pagoda, but you can’t
close me off! I got to watch the battle of flesh from up close. I
really couldn’t tell. You two were all civil-like usually, what
made you so wild?" Ever since leaving the Primordial Immortal
Mountain Peak, Ming Long had started her hollering.
Wu Yu had been a little careless. Back when he sealed the
Floating Dreams Pagoda, he had forgotten about this bugger.
To think that she would be shameless enough to watch them up
close!
"Shut up! You’re shameless!"
"Aiyeee, speak honestly. Who is the more shameless one? Did
you not think that your perverted actions would hurt my
delicate and innocent spirit?" Ming Long screeched.
"You naive ass! You old hag!"
"You dare to insult me? Do you believe that I will describe in
detail how you were? Eh heh, ayayaya! Haha!"
"You pervert! What will make you shut up?" Wu Yu was
speechless.
"That’s more like it. Me? Well, I’ve not had a taste of it for
more than 120,000 years. I want to experience it too." Ming
Long gave a salacious grin.
"Go to hell, pervert!"
Wu Yu ignored her, but she only grew more and more
animated.
After leaving the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm, he only
recalled that the Floating Dreams Pagoda was still shut after
reaching the Dragon Immortal Sky. Wu Yu opened it and was
just about to speak when he saw that the Full Moon of Nanshan
and Ye Xixi both had their arms crossed. They had nasty smiles
on their faces, and even Lazy the cat was on its hind legs with
its arms crossed....
The Full Moon of Nanshan laughed. "Heh heh heh heh."
Ye Xixi did too. "Hehehehe."
The All Amalgamating Cat joined in. "Meow meow meow
meow."
"I think the Floating Dreams Sword must have something to do
with the Floating Dreams Pagoda. I want to test the connection
out." Wu Yu changed the topic.
"Heh heh heh heh."
"Hehehehe."
“Meow meow meow meow."
"Xixi, he’s a bad influence on you." Wu Yu grumbled.
Ye Xixi stayed with her arms folded and laughed knowingly.
"Hehehehe."
Wu Yu had three black lines hanging on his forehead.
After smiling sheepishly for a long time, the Full Moon of
Nanshan remarked, "What a heart-rending parting~ I’m so
jealous. I have long wanted to ask you to leave the Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm. Since we arrived in the sky palaces, I
haven’t seen a single ordinary beauty from within the Floating
Dreams Pagoda."
Ye Xixi’s face darkened instantly.
"Foolish pig, are you blind?" She pulled a long face, turned to
Wu Yu, and said, "Big Brother Yu, I’m not happy. I’m
protesting to chase him out of the Floating Dreams Pagoda. I
no longer want to see him every day. He’s not even as cute as
my Lazy."
"Chey~ I don’t want to see you either. You aren’t even as
attractive as Lazy."
"YOU???" Wu Yu found a deserted area within the Dragon
Immortal Sky to settle down. He wasn’t in a hurry to rush into
the Sublime Gracious Sky. Instead, he wanted to take some
time to strengthen himself further.
"I suspect the Floating Dreams Sword and the Floating Dreams
Pagoda are more than meet the eye when placed together. It’s
very likely that both come from the Floating Dreams Immortal
King. Let me give it a try. The Floating Dreams Pagoda might
just be a destinable immortal treasure, considering that we have
yet to plumb the depths of it even now."
He dug a deep cave in the ground of the Dragon Immortal Sky
before pulling out the Floating Dreams Pagoda and the Floating
Dreams Sword.
The Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi also came out of the
Floating Dreams Pagoda and stayed beside Wu Yu.
The Full Moon of Nanshan said, "I’m still puzzled. If those four
were really closely connected, what happened exactly for three
of them to leave their legacies in the Jambu Realm, while the
other remained in the sky palaces? Why would they leave their
legacies behind? Furthermore, we haven’t been able to find
stories about them in the sky palaces."
Wu Yu shook his head and said, "From the memories I have,
immortals that have lived for hundreds of millions of years like
the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor are well-known
throughout. Perhaps those four weren’t at that level. However,
there are also many immortal kings within the sky palaces that
everyone would recognize. Yet the achievements of the quartet
shouldn’t just be at the level of an Immortal King."
"The Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal, the Victorious Fighting
Buddha. Marshal Tian Peng was also known as the Envoy of
the Cleansed Altar. The Curtain Lifting General’s alias was the
Golden-bodied Arhat. As for the ancestor of the mystical
dragon, he was known as the Eight Division Heavenly
Dragon." Ye Xixi couldn’t decipher who they really were in the
sky palaces.
Wu Yu nodded and said, "Regardless of who they were or the
secrets surrounding them, we should find out as we progress
and cultivate further."
The Full Moon of Nanshan remarked, "First, our cultivation
ways are different from a typical immortal’s. Wu Yu’s Great
Way of Immortality Art, Ye Xixi’s Ten Wheels Bodhisattva
Ghostly Immortal Mantra, and the Archaic Divine Dragon
Emperor Mantra that Luo Pin has just inherited are all authentic
immortal or ghostly immortal cultivation arts. However, the
four of us have other cultivation arts for our physical bodies.
Other than immortal energy, there are other types of energy
encompassed within our physical bodies.
"For example, your Invincible Vajra Body bears buddha
energy.
"As for my Nine Cycles of the Imperial Immortal Body, it bears
an energy similar to immortal energy and also your buddha
energy. I named it imperial energy.
"For Ye Xixi’s Hell Incarnation Avatar, other than the ghostly
immortal energy within her ghostly spirit, she also has a
different energy within her physical body known as incarnation
energy.
"Luo Pin inherited the cultivation art of the Eight Division
Heavenly Dragon Avatar. Clearly, she will also gain two forms
of energy once she starts cultivating her physical body. As for
the cultivation arts of one’s physical body, there are large
differences to the cultivation arts in the Heavenly Domain.
Therefore, my guess is that the quartet might possess
cultivation arts from two domains. Or perhaps I should say two
systems. The cultivation system of the physical body might
have long been forgotten with the passage of time. Or perhaps
it might come from another domain?"
Ye Xixi said, "Most likely, they were lost in the passage of
time. The Heavenly Domain represents the limits of the world."
At this point, Wu Yu seemed to have recalled something from
the distant past.
When Ye Xixi was done speaking, Wu Yu shook his head and
said, "Perhaps there might really be another domain!"
"Why would you say so?"
Wu Yu recalled and said, "When I first obtained the Ruyi Jingu
Bang, I remember the voice saying he was the Great Sage,
Heaven’s Equal from the Heavenly Domain and the Victorious
Fighting Buddha from the Heavenly Buddha’s Domain!
Therefore, my guess is that the titles Victorious Fighting
Buddha, Envoy of the Cleansed Altar, Golden-bodied Arhat,
and Eight Division Heavenly Dragon were from the Heavenly
Buddha’s Domain."
This happened so long ago that he had almost forgotten about
it.
"There’s a Heavenly Buddha’s Domain?" Neither of them had
heard about it from their predecessors.
"So that’s how it is... Perhaps there really is a Heavenly
Buddha’s Domain. However, why does it seem like no one in
the sky palaces knows anything about it? At the very least, they
should be aware of it and it shouldn’t be as it is now. There
must have been legends lingering around."
Wu Yu took a deep breath and said, "My suggestion is to not
ask anyone about the Heavenly Buddha’s Domain."
"Why?"
Wu Yu answered, "We don’t know if them leaving behind their
legacies has something to do with the Heavenly Buddha’s
Domain. Once we start asking around, others might know we
are related to the four of them. Furthermore, others don’t seem
to be aware of the existence of the Heavenly Buddha’s Domain.
Let’s take it one step at a time. As we progress in cultivation,
perhaps these mysteries will be unveiled."
No matter what secrets were concerned, there would be a day
where the truth was uncovered.
"Yeah, that’s reasonable."
It was especially so for the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi,
who were still really weak and couldn’t take any blows.
"I don’t know what they want us to do...." Ye Xixi’s watery
eyes widened while she rested her cheek on her hand and
pondered.
Wu Yu put aside matters that were still too far beyond him and
focused on studying the Floating Dreams Sword and the
Floating Dreams Pagoda.
"The Floating Dreams Immortal King, a Great Void Immortal
Realm expert, was extremely skilled.... He took a long time to
forge the Floating Dreams Sword."
The Full Moon of Nanshan took a few glances and said with
conviction, "I have to say, these two items look like they were
cut from the same cloth."
"Yeah."
Wu Yu shared the same view the more he observed. It was
especially so for some symbols that were exactly the same.
"In that case, I’ll go with the old trick of slicing it to see if
there’s any changes!"
He had decided to risk it. After affixing the Floating Dreams
Pagoda on to the ground, he sliced it with the Floating Dreams
Sword without a second word!
Dang!
This time, the Floating Dreams Sword that could slice the white
dragon scale was surprisingly deflected away.
As for the Floating Dreams Pagoda, ripples reverberated on the
surface and an ear-piercing screech propagated out. Wu Yu saw
that a spirit design that was surrounding the Floating Dreams
Pagoda seemed to have been torn.
Obviously, that should be an immortal design.
Wu Yu had never noticed the existence of this immortal design
previously.
When the immortal design broke, the Floating Dreams Pagoda
changed completely. The aura of a destinable immortal treasure
was released instantly. It was mysterious and powerful, as
though it had just undergone a huge metamorphosis.
"The Floating Dreams Pagoda is indeed a destinable immortal
treasure. However, it was sealed with an immortal design
previously, likely by the Floating Dreams Immortal King
himself. However, why would the Floating Dreams Immortal
King be in the Taigu Immortal Path?"

To this day, Wu Yu still found the Taigu Immortal Path to be a

little mysterious.
However, his focus was now solely on the Floating Dreams
Pagoda. He would have to form a blood bond with it again.
When his mind entered the Floating Dreams Pagoda, he was
astonished.
The Floating Dreams Sword had 500 million spirit designs.
As for the Floating Dreams Pagoda, it had 800 million spirit
designs! Once a treasure reached 1 billion spirit designs, it
would be a great void immortal treasure! Wu Yu had never
expected the Floating Dreams Pagoda to be an even more
incredible destinable immortal treasure than the Floating
Dreams Sword.
He took a long time to familiarize himself with the spirit
designs. The marvel of the Floating Dreams Pagoda wasn’t the
puppets. One could say that the puppets were just the
accessories. The main marvel was in "time."
Wu Yu didn’t know how the Floating Dreams Immortal King
had achieved the means to control time. The immortal design
within was used to manipulate time.
The first design was the River of Time. Within the Floating
Dreams Pagoda, it could alter the flow and speed of time. The
10 times time Wu Yu had previously experienced was due to
this immortal design. Through this immortal design, and with
what Wu Yu was capable of currently, he could roughly control
the flow to 100 times. This was his limit for now, but it was
uncertain if he could go further in the future.
Regardless, time flowing 100 times faster was already a
frightening thought! For example, a year outside would be 100
years within the Floating Dreams Pagoda. 10 years outside
would be 1,000 years inside!
The second immortal design could be used in battle and was
known as the Time Warp Immortal Design. This would apply
the changes to the flow of time beyond the interior of the
Floating Dreams Pagoda. Wu Yu still couldn’t understand the
marvel of time. However, he could use it through the Floating
Dreams Pagoda. Once triggered, he could form an immortal
design with a disrupted time flow. He wouldn’t be affected, but
it would likely be difficult for his opponent to use his full
strength amidst the changes in time. Therefore, the Time Warp
Immortal Design might be a dreadful immortal design that was
similar to the Immortal Cloud Field.
Wu Yu studied the two immortal designs eagerly. When he
mastered them, a month had passed. However, this had also
greatly enhanced Wu Yu’s battle prowess. If he had the
Floating Dreams Sword and Floating Dreams Pagoda
previously, he would have beaten the Immortal Lord Realm
Tian Ming Dragon Lord easily.
Once he was done, the trio entered the Floating Dreams
Pagoda. Wu Yu adjusted the time flow to roughly 100 times.
100 years in it would just be a year inside.
This was beyond all common reason. The Full Moon of
Nanshan and Ye Xixi couldn’t be happier, as time was what
they required the most.
As for cultivation resources, Wu Yu had plenty. For battle
experience, they could spar with each other.
Wu Yu sent the first Immortal Message Talisman to Luo Pin
saying, "I’ll be training in seclusion for a year in the Dragon
Immortal Sky fist. I miss you. Don’t worry about me."
Soon, a reply came back. She said, "I’ll be training behind
closed doors for some time to study the two cultivation arts."
Wu Yu replied, "Remember to master the Eight Division
Heavenly Dragon Avatar."
Luo Pin responded, "I will."
The Immortal Message Talismans from Luo Pin carried her
scent. Therefore, Wu Yu put them away carefully.
He was going to train in seclusion for 100 years with the
accelerated time!
The goals were to practice some battle techniques and also
improve his four mystiques.
First, Wu Yu delved into the Ground Demon Transformation
Art. This was an elite immortal technique, although he didn’t
know the exact class. At the very least, it was beyond Immortal
Lord Realm techniques. Without the help from the Great Sage,
Heaven’s Equal, it was extremely difficult for Wu Yu to start,
as he had no clue. He estimated that this Transformation Art
would be too difficult even for those at the Great Void Immortal
Realm.
Therefore, even though he had 20 techniques from the Ground
Demon Transformation Art to practice, he couldn’t improve
further and could only place them aside.
Next, he went with the three Immortal Lord Realm techniques
he had gained from the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. However,
casting Immortal Lord Realm techniques required the power of
a realm. At this moment, he didn’t possess such capabilities.
Therefore, he was left with improving on his Natural
Mystiques.
After Wu Yu and the others left the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm.
Back in the Sky Heart Tribe’s Sky Chariot Empire, a huge,
white mystical dragon was lazing indolently in a wide stream,
bathing its body.
A purple mystical dragon flew in, landing in the water. She
leaned up against the white mystical dragon, saying coyly, "Big
Brother Tian Ming, I heard that Wu Yu has already left the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm and has just been seen at the
Dragon Immortal Sky."
"Is that so? He’s left really quickly. The five days aren’t even
up yet." The Tian Ming Dragon Lord scoffed.
"How does Big Brother Tian Ming plan to deal with him?" Tian
Zi asked.
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord said, "I have an idea. Zi Er, tell
me what you think."
"Big Brother, do tell."
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord said, "Wu Yu embarrassed me a
lot. Although it will be many years before he becomes an
Immortal King, I can’t let him have a chance to succeed, can
I?"
Tian Zi said, "Of course not. I feel that the Empyrean Revered
Dragon also thought the same way. As long as Wu Yu left, he
could never return again. There are so many threats and perils
outside. He might not survive."
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord’s face was dark. "I meant that I
should personally hire people from the Immortal Slayer Palace.
I will pay a fortune to hire a 5-realm immortal lord who will
not stop until Wu Yu is dead. The Immortal Slayer Palace is
well known for their complete silence about their hirers. It is a
rather reliable option."
Tian Zi was a little nervous. "But doesn’t he have a powerful
immortal backing him? Won’t that...."
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord snorted. "No matter what Father
and the rest say, I feel that there’s no way to confirm if this
immortal exists. It might be an ancient immortal who has long
faded away and given him the legacy - there’s no way to be
sure. Besides, we have the Nine Great Dragon Emperors and so
many revered dragons. I don’t believe that our mighty immortal
beast tribe, leader in the sky palaces, should be afraid of a single
Wu Yu, who has some immortal’s legacy. Besides, you’ve seen
for yourself how much he embarrassed me...."
Tian Zi nodded. "That Wu Yu is indeed too repulsive. He needs
to die. However, hiring a 5-realm immortal lord, won’t that cost
a lot of money?"
The Tian Ming Dragon Lord continued, "Zi Er, I trust you,
that’s why I’m telling you all this. You can’t tell others, no
matter what. Got it?"
Tian Zi said with a hurt tone, "But I hear that you want that
Primordial Immortal Dragon...."
Tian Ming laughed. "Don’t talk rubbish. Those were just words
to shame Wu Yu. In my heart, Zi Er is way better than that
slight thing."
"Oh, you." Tian Ming blushed red.
Tian Ming played with her for a while, then turned serious. "Zi
Er, I’m still a little short on the fee for hiring a 5-realm immortal
lord killer. Can you support me?"
..................
He had 20 years to win an Immortal King Token.
If he spent all of it within the Floating Dreams Pagoda, he
would have 2,100 years.
Of course, spending all that time in the Floating Dreams Pagoda
would probably not yield an Immortal King Token.
However, before he went in, Wu Yu still spent some time
consolidating his thoughts.
He thoroughly contemplated all that he had gained within the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory throughout the year.
Inside, he had gotten the transformations and daos of many
Nine Xuan Dao Realm immortals, ghostly immortals, and
mystical dragons.
All of this served as reference, and Wu Yu needed to carefully
work his way through them.
Right now, he had many different experiences and perspectives
that he could use to consider problems. This allowed him to be
able to cultivate at breakneck speed.
One year of devouring had allowed him to digest for 100 years
of time.
Just digesting the daos of all these immortals took Wu Yu close
to 50 years.
These immortals had all lived for hundreds of thousands of
years, and their daos and insights were as numerous as stars in
the universe. It was impossible to clearly know every single
one.
Wu Yu spent a few decades on them.
Before, he had only had a taste of them, and now he had gone
through the experiences with more meticulous care, sometimes
even revisiting them. Only then could he thoroughly process
them.
Right now, he had gained even more transformations. It was
even more efficacious than further devouring.
He used these new transformations and insights in his
cultivation. First, he raised the Dragon and Elephant Prajna
Buddha Body another tier, up to the fifth tier. All of his dragon
and elephant molecules again split into two.
In terms of the Great Way of Immortality Art, he was still
improving. He had managed to create his fifth immortal dao
mark, the Dao of Golden Eyes.
His fourth immortal dao mark had been built on his Unshackled
Doppelganger mystique. When his understanding of his clones
reached perfection, they formed an immortal dao mark.
As for the fifth dao, it was his understanding of the Eyes of Fire
and Gold. That, too, had become an immortal dao mark. When
Wu Yu became a 5-xuan immortal, his Bodhi Seeds glowed
even brighter.
With new immortal dao marks, Wu Yu gained many more
insights about the Eyes of Fire and Gold.
Before, the Ancient Emperor had used his own understanding
to raise Wu Yu’s mystique to the Optics of Immortal Expanse
level.
For the next 20 years, Wu Yu focused on the seventh tier of the
Eyes of Fire and Gold. With the help of the Dao of Golden
Eyes, he finally broke through successfully.
The seventh tier of the Eyes of Fire and Gold was called
Meteoric Mirror, and was naturally much stronger than the
Optics of Immortal Expanse.
Next, Wu Yu spent considerable time studying the Lawful
Embodiment of Heaven and Earth.
He had also spent much effort on the Unshackled Doppelganger
but had not managed to reap anything from it yet.
However, because he could devour energy and then distribute
it to his 100,000 doppelgangers, his 100,000 doppelgangers
were now all at the heavenly immortal level. 100,000 heavenly
immortals was a fairly impressive force. When needed, they
could be a terrifying army at Wu Yu’s command. After all, Wu
Yu had devoured many mystical dragons and immortals, and
the immortal techniques that he could use were endless!
The Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth was a more
straightforward additional process that was not as complicated
as the Eyes of Fire and Gold.
Wu Yu used his past insights and experience and spent another
20 years on the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth,
improving it to the fifth tier. Right now, he could turn into a
giant of 24 zhang. Ordinary inns were about one zhang[1] per
story, or slightly less. Which meant that Wu Yu could roughly
grow to the height of a 30-story inn.
Just one finger alone was as thick as the pillar of a house. Wu
Yu was even larger than most immortal beasts.
Of course, at his smallest, that was also rather extreme. He was
only a quarter of a cun[2], about the thickness of a toothpick.
He could go anywhere without being seen at all.
The Eyes of Fire and Gold and the Lawful Embodiment of
Heaven and Earth both saw improvements. Wu Yu next turned
to the Somersault Cloud. He also spent a decade on it, but did
not see any improvements. He felt that the Somersault Cloud
was slightly more enigmatic. Given his current level of
understanding, he would probably have to spend more than 100
years on it to gain anything.

100 years had passed, and Wu Yu was satisfied with his

progress. He left the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
In 100 years of time, the Full Moon of Nanshan had already
risen to the fifth tier, while Ye Xixi had risen to the fourth tier
of the Longevity Immortal Realm. They were both rising
rapidly.
Outside, only a year had passed.
Wu Yu immediately wanted to go to the 5,000th level of
Heaven, the Sublime Gracious Sky. Although they were
improving quickly, they would be useless there. They did not
have Wu Yu’s devouring ability and therefore consented to stay
within the Floating Dreams Pagoda and cultivate at their own
pace, uncaring of where Wu Yu went.
"Right now, we already have hundreds of thousands of years of
life. We’re not afraid of that anymore."
"That’s right. When you enter the Great Void Immortal Path,
we’ll have cultivated for more than 2,000 years inside. 100
years outside is 10,000 years for us in here. At that time, no
matter how untalented we are, even though we can’t devour,
we’ll also be close to the Great Void Immortal Realm at least!"
The two of them had powerful legacies, and they trusted in
them.
The Floating Dreams Pagoda was indeed extremely useful.
Ordinary destinable immortal treasures did not seem to be able
to match its enormous utility.
Of course, this was only useful for superb geniuses like them.
If an imbecile obtained it, 1,000 times more time would not
help him much.
"At that time, if there are chances to train at the Great Void
Immortal Path, I will also allow you to participate. It will be
beneficial to you." Wu Yu nodded.
He was already prepared to go to the Sublime Gracious Sky.
"If only you could bring Big Sister Luo Pin along. She would
definitely improve much faster. Much faster than at the
Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm," Ye Xixi said.
Wu Yu said helplessly, "There’s nothing for it. The mystical
dragons will definitely not allow her to follow me. After all, she
is just an infant to them, and she needs to grow up in a warm
nursery. If she follows me into the wind and rain, who knows
where she might perish?"
"So we have to follow you into the wind and rain, but she
doesn’t?" the Full Moon of Nanshan demanded indignantly.
"You wretched existence, just count yourself lucky you’ve
made it this far." Wu Yu laughed.
"That won’t do. I still have many things to do. We’re at the sky
palaces, but I’ve yet to take an immortal woman to bed. I’m
very unhappy about that. If not for how tempting your Floating
Dreams Pagoda is, I would have abandoned you long ago and
gone to mingle in other lower leveled sky palaces." Given his
5-Yuan heavenly immortal cultivation, plus the abilities of
Marshal Tian Peng, he could definitely do well in the lower
level sky palaces.
Ye Xixi said, "Go on, then. See if I don’t crush you dead when
you return in 100 years. At that time, a puff of air from me could
blow you back to the Jambu Realm."
Indeed, one would go further staying by Wu Yu’s side.
The Floating Dreams Pagoda was a blessing. What the Full
Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi most was time.
"Alright, enough talking. Off to the Sublime Gracious Sky!"
Wu Yu headed for the Well of Eternal Life.
Of course, before leaving, he sent an Immortal Message
Talisman to Luo Pin, telling her of his gains in this time. And
then he headed on. First to the Sublime Gracious Sky, to win
an Immortal King Token!
Although he was only at the Nine Xuan Dao Realm, it would
not affect his ability to contest for a Mark of an Immortal King.
Naturally, Luo Pin was working hard too.
Wu Yu arrived at the Well of Eternal Life swiftly.
After which, he dived into the Well of Eternal Life. This time,
he had to head for the 5,000th level of heaven from the 2,000
level of heaven. This would likely take some time.
Moreover, the higher he went, the more exhaustive it would be.
Wu Yu had burned up substantial strength in the battle against
the Tian Ming Dragon Lord.
Now, although he had progressed in cultivation level, his
immortal energy and buddha energy were still lacking. 100
years of absorbing immortal qi still couldn’t replenish the
energy.
Nonetheless, it shouldn’t be any issue for him to battle someone
in the first tier of the Immortal Lord Realm.
If he had full Bodhi immortal energy, defeating the Tian Ming
Dragon Lord would be easier than before and he wouldn’t have
to resort to Immolate.
Nonetheless, he was also aware that there were countless
geniuses and experts from all over the sky palaces that were a
lot stronger than the Tian Ming Dragon Lord.
Although his potential was limitless and his progress had been
compelling, there was still a large cloud of immortals that were
way stronger than him.
Those were existences that had reached immortalhood several
hundreds of thousands of years ago. In terms of seniority, they
could have been Wu Yu’s ancient, ancient ancestors.
Within the Well of Eternal Life, Wu Yu continued upwards one
level at a time.
The time spent to cross 3,000 levels of heaven in the Well of
Eternal Life wouldn’t be short.
Although there was still 20 years, Wu Yu could tell that the
Sublime Gracious Sky would turn lively really soon. This was
because he could sense that many people around him had the
same destination as him.
And these people might just be in possession of an Immortal
King Token.
However, Wu Yu couldn’t possibly target them currently. This
was because those who would be participating would at least
be 5-realm immortal lords. Moreover, those 5-realm immortal
lords would at most be cannon fodder in that place.
Although a total of 100 million Immortal King Tokens were
issued, the ones who had the strength and had a higher chance
of possessing Immortal King Tokens were still the 8-realm
immortal lords or even 9-realm immortal lords.
They were the true competitors, while the majority of the
immortal lords wouldn’t get anything from entering the Great
Void Immortal Path.
Those 8-realm immortal lords and 9-realm immortal lords were
indeed at the stage of becoming Immortal Kings and had to
secure Immortal King Tokens.
They were largely immortals who had lived for at least four
yuan. For them to reach the brink of becoming an Immortal
King, it was testament that they were one in a trillion geniuses.
Their talent was undoubtedly exceptional.
They were also countless generations older than Wu Yu.
Most immortals that came from the mortal domain would
largely remain as heavenly immortals, facing difficulties to
make progress. They would be geniuses if they could reach the
Nine Xuan Dao Realm. As for Immortal Kings, such instances
were rare and few within the past few yuans.
Clearly, at a place like the Sublime Gracious Sky, a xuan
immortal like Wu Yu would definitely be among the weakest.
It was extremely difficult for a xuan immortal to reach the
Sublime Gracious Sky. Others would only assume someone
had brought Wu Yu in.
However, they would never believe that Wu Yu would want to
enter the Great Void Immortal Path as well. At the very least,
he was at least 500,000 years from becoming an Immortal
King, judging from his current strength. This wasn’t something
that he should be participating in.
Finally, when he was nearing the Sublime Gracious Sky, the
Well of Eternal Life was almost completely blocked.
Wu Yu was frustrated as well. He was surrounded by elite
immortal lords, and each of them was frighteningly powerful.
He felt suffocated by the auras of these immortal lords. It was
already arduous for him to continue upwards. Yet he was
blocked at this point.
Although there were only 100 million Immortal King Tokens,
it was said that before the Great Void Immortal Path was
opened, 10 billion immortal lords who wished to enter it would
gather in the Sublime Gracious Sky.
With 20 years to the opening, the Well of Eternal Life leading
to the Sublime Gracious Sky was now blocked. For those who
thought of setting off when the Great Void Immortal Path
opened, they would likely reach the Sublime Gracious Sky only
20 years after it opened.
Therefore, to take the conservative approach, those who wished
to enter would basically arrive between 20 years to 50 years
before the opening. Moreover, 99% of them wouldn’t have an
Immortal King Token in hand. They were largely here to try
their luck.
Wu Yu had come quite early. However, to make it to the
5,000th level of heaven from the 4997th level of heaven, he
took half a year.
It definitely didn’t feel comfortable to be stuck in the Well of
Eternal Life. Everyone had shrunk their bodies to the smallest.
As for Wu Yu, he used the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and
Earth before moving through the openings of the crowd. This
also took half a year. One could easily imagine how huge the
temptation of the Mark of an Immortal King was.
Fortunately, he finally arrived in the Sublime Gracious Sky!
The 5,000th level of heaven was indeed different!
This place wasn’t as vast and spacious as the sky palaces below.
However, the immortal qi and treasures of this place weren’t
something that the lower levels could compete with.
When emerging from the Well of Eternal Life and looking
across the vast land, Wu Yu couldn’t help but feel awe.
"Move quickly. Don’t loiter around, leave immediately!"
Countless immortal lords were in wretched states after being
forced out. They scattered out swiftly.
Wu Yu also accelerated by using the Somersault Cloud to jump
out of this densely packed area. Looking back, the vicinity of
the Well of Eternal Life was packed like sardines. At least tens
of millions of elite immortal lords could be seen. Any one of
them would be able to take Wu Yu down easily.
"There are too many powerful immortals!
"However, that is to be expected. They have spent several
hundred thousand years in cultivation to reach where they are
today.
"I just didn’t expect this place to be so congested.
"The Great Void Immortal Path is the place where one may rise
as an Immortal King. Therefore, it’s impossible for these
immortal lords to not risk their lives.
"This is definitely the most majestic and grand event in the sky
palaces."
Wu Yu was stumped. He was intimidated by the vast land of
the Sublime Gracious Sky and the fact that immortal lords were
so numerous as though they were ants.
Which one of those immortal lords couldn’t easily crush him?
They had also waited for 5,000 years or even several tens of
thousands of years before having this opportunity to become an
Immortal King.
Each Immortal Lord Realm cultivator had their own
autonomous realm.
Together with those that had stayed at the Sublime Gracious
Sky from the beginning, the number of Immortal Lord Realm
cultivators on the Sublime Gracious Sky was astronomical.
Wu Yu could almost envision the contest for the Mark of an
Immortal King - there would be tens of thousands of people
competing for one! Those who would make it to the end and
become Immortal Kings would be scarce and few.
After all, Marks of an Immortal King weren’t easy to forge. The
numbers would be extremely limited too. In fact, many
immortal clans and families had to head over to the Great Void
Immortal Path to compete for the Marks of an Immortal King.
Countless immortal lords separated in the Sublime Gracious
Sky.

There were some who stayed several levels of heaven above

and below the Sublime Gracious Sky to catch their breaths.
However, when they saw how congested it was, they became
worried they wouldn’t reach the Sublime Gracious Sky in time.
As a result, they flocked and swarmed the channel too.
"On the Sublime Gracious Sky, there’s a Sublime Gracious
Divine Region. That’s a place that ordinary immortals are
restricted from entering and is the territory of the Eastern
Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor. However, he might not be
there, as the Five Directional Divine Emperors definitely have
other territories in higher levels of the sky palaces.
"Other than the Sublime Gracious Divine Region, there are nine
huge immortal cities. At this point, each immortal city likely
houses several hundreds of millions of immortal lords...."
The Sublime Gracious Sky was probably the most densely
populated place throughout the sky palaces during this period.
Even the lower levels of sky palaces would likely not be as
congested.
Wu Yu didn’t have an Immortal King Token right now. He
would have to ask around and investigate to settle the matter
with the Immortal King Token.
The area with the most people gathered would naturally
increase his chances.
Therefore, he chose a city known as Benevolent Immortal City
and darted towards it.
"All of them are immortal lords! There are several billion
people on the Sublime Gracious Sky, and you can’t win against
any one of them! It’s time for you to fear and tremble, young
man!" The Full Moon of Nanshan took joy from Wu Yu’s
predicament.
Ye Xixi rolled her eyes and said, "You have the face to make
fun of Big Brother Yu? If you get out now, anyone could send
you flying worlds apart with a single breath!"
"Haha......"
However, there were truly too many immortal lords. Everyone
before his eyes was an elite immortal. Their demeanor,
disposition, and intensity of dao had been consolidated over
several hundreds of thousands of years. Most of them were
silent and appeared cold. This further suggested that a storm
was brewing over the Sublime Gracious Sky.
Truth be told, this was the most dangerous place. A battle to the
death over an Immortal King Token might erupt at any
moment!
One’s corpse might just be thrown into the wilderness.
Wu Yu was careful while wandering around. He might just be
targeted and killed on the spot if others assumed he had an
Immortal King Token. These immortals had dreadful means
and their own autonomous realms. If Wu Yu got too close, he
might be trapped in the other party’s autonomous realm in a
single instant. Without the Somersault Cloud, he would never
be able to escape.
This was also the reason why many people wanted to hide in
Benevolent Immortal City. At the very least, Benevolent
Immortal City was managed by a number of Immortal Kings.
All of them were under the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine
Emperor. In fact, there might even be eternal immortal
emperors among their ranks. Immortal lords would likely not
have the guts to openly start a fight to contest for Immortal
King Tokens.
To this day, Immortal King Tokens were traded each day. It
was said that whenever the Great Void Immortal Path was
about to open, 100 million immortal lords out of 10 billion
would perish in battle in the competition for Immortal King
Tokens. Although this was brutal, the sky palaces didn’t seem
like they would step in. The Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine
Emperor also did not care about what happened beyond the
nine immortal cities.
Perhaps 100 million immortal lords perishing was worthwhile
for the eventual hundreds of thousands of Immortal Kings?
The differences between immortal lords and Immortal Kings
were huge. The Sublime Gracious Sky was filled with dangers.
However, the allure still attracted numerous immortal lords to
swarm this place.
Indeed, Wu Yu encountered an ambush!
It happened too abruptly, and he didn’t know where his
opponent had come from. The terrifying autonomous realm
surrounded Wu Yu instantly. Wu Yu only saw that his
opponent seemed to be a lady before he felt the lethal
murderous intent.
This autonomous realm was several times stronger than the
Tian Ming Dragon Lord’s.
"Hand over your Immortal King Token and I’ll spare your life!"
The other party chided.
Wu Yu used all his strength to escape with his Somersault
Cloud and dodged her attack. Although he did get away, he
broke out in cold sweat. He estimated that opponent to be at
least a 6-realm immortal lord, or at the sixth tier of the Immortal
Lord Realm. For the current him, that was a dreadful opponent.
It was not surprising that those who came would often form
groups and would only wander around when the group was at
least several dozen people. Most of them weren’t in a hurry to
enter the immortal city. Otherwise, once they were targeted,
they might lose their lives.
Obviously, if they had Immortal King Tokens and were willing
to hand them over readily, their lives would be spared.
"If I exit the city to pick up corpses each day, I would likely
benefit greatly, right?" Wu Yu thought dejectedly.
He had not expected there to be a place in the sky palaces where
killings were so brutal. When he arrived in Benevolent
Immortal City and turned around, the scene behind him was no
different from a massacre hell. Savagery and murderous intent
filled the atmosphere.
Benevolent Immortal City was definitely the largest city that
Wu Yu had seen in his life.
Previously, he thought the Immortal’s Capital was huge.
However, comparing it with Benevolent Immortal City would
be a joke.
After all, this place could fit several hundred million immortal
lords. Even if he flew 10,000 zhang into the sky, he probably
couldn’t see the entire immortal city under him.
"Once you enter the city, do not start a riot or damage the
immortal city. If you violate the rules, Benevolent Immortal
City will definitely decapitate all rioters publicly as a warning!"
When Wu Yu stepped in, he immediately heard a voice
resounding throughout the city. One would feel intimidated just
listening to that proclamation.
"What it means is that assassinations or fights are allowed as
long as it doesn’t cause a huge ruckus. At the very least, it is to
ensure Benevolent Immortal City maintains peace on the
surface. Those that cause a huge ruckus from battles and also
those that damage the immortal city and affect others will be
killed regardless of their reasons."
Such a domineering announcement caused Benevolent
Immortal City to be in deathly stillness. Even though there were
numerous immortal lords, the atmosphere was solemn. The
colossal and boundless city was filled with a somber and
desolate aura.
"Frightening." When Ye Xixi looked around and saw each
immortal lord being cold and gloomy, she was so afraid that
she shrivelled in a corner of the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
"The contest to become Immortal Kings will end on top of
hundreds of millions of corpses. How frightening!" The Full
Moon of Nanshan was also speechless.
Judging from the situation, 100 million was just a small
amount.
What was frightening was that when Wu Yu just arrived, a
suave and presentable middle-aged immortal came up to him
and asked, "Do you have an Immortal King Token?"
"Nope." Wu Yu avoided him immediately after answering.
These people definitely didn’t have good intentions.
"I have an Immortal King Token. As long as you can offer a
good price, I can sell it to you," the other party said with a
gentle smile.
There was definitely a trap in it and therefore Wu Yu left the
place swiftly. Others who encountered similar situations would
also do the same. If they didn’t leave swiftly and spoke with the
other party for a while longer, they might just fall into his
scheme, and that would become the makings of a disaster.
"What are the ways of the world now that even xuan immortals
dare to step into the Sublime Gracious Sky?" That middle-aged
man smirked and continued searching for his next target.
Along the way, Wu Yu could feel several dozen pairs of eyes
affixed onto him as though he were prey.
"A xuan immortal dares to saunter openly in this place? Could
it be that he has an Immortal King Token?"
"That’s not possible unless he’s here to seek his own death!"
"We better not do anything to him. He might just be a
descendant of some Immortal King and is here to visit.
Otherwise, ordinary xuan immortals would never have the guts
to be on the Sublime Gracious Sky."
"You are right. Don’t draw trouble to ourselves now. Finding
an Immortal King Token is more important." Vaguely, Wu Yu
could hear such conversations going on.
He didn’t dare to shrink himself in a place that was so crowded.
This was because with so many immortal lords around, he
might still be discovered. Once they became interested in his
mystique, it would also become another issue. Before he came,
he had really not expected the Sublime Gracious Sky to be a
place with dangers lurking at all corners. It was equally hair-
raising in Benevolent Immortal City.
Wu Yu strained his ears to listen to the crowd’s conversations
while wandering around.
"We don’t hold much hope now. The key is the Immortal King
Token. Without an Immortal King Token, we can forget about
getting a Mark of an Immortal King."
"A 7-realm immortal lord would be lucky to even get one
Immortal King Token."
"I heard there will be a lot more descendants of immortal
emperors participating this time. The best Marks of an
Immortal King are always snatched by them!"
"It would already be great to join the contest if we could find
Immortal King Tokens. If you aren’t a 9-realm immortal lord,
you can forget about getting any high tier Mark of an Immortal
King."
"I am still unwilling to resign myself to fate. Why should they
always deserve the best? Can’t those immortal emperors create
their own Marks of an Immortal King?"
"Regardless, the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor is
one of the Five Directional Divine Emperors and is in charge
of controlling the Marks of an Immortal King in the sky
palaces. The elite Marks of an Immortal King in his hands are
definitely numerous!"
"I heard that some incredible immortal emperors, including
Zhao Gongming of the Zhao Immortal Tribe and Li Qingtian
of the Li Immortal Tribe, will be here. Zhao Gongming and Li
Qingtian are both from the 36 Heavenly Generals! Their
descendants have been guided by immortal emperors from
young and are miles apart from cultivators like us, who
ascended from the mortal domain. Although they are 9-realm
immortal lords, their battle prowess isn’t much different from
Immortal Kings!"
"Hehe! In this place, descendants of the 36 Heavenly Generals
are nothing. I heard that the Primeval Mighty Miracle God will
be here personally with his mighty Miracle God Tribe. The son
of the Primeval Mighty Miracle God will also be participating.
It is said that he has his eye on the ninth grade Mark of an
Immortal King in the Great Void Immortal Path!"
"Primeval Mighty Miracle God! Isn’t that the favored imperial
general of the Jade Emperor?"
When the crowd heard the news, everyone was stumped.
Other than these, Wu Yu had also heard the names of numerous
immortals. Indeed, immortals that he only knew from legends
would also participate in it.
The descendants of eternal immortal emperors were expected
to be powerful. They were all after the highest tier Mark of an
Immortal King.
Wu Yu was only interested in the highest tier Mark of an
Immortal King. Otherwise, he wouldn’t even want it.
Therefore, he paid particular attention to these competitors.
"Let’s not reach for the sky for now. Judging from the current
situation, it would be best for you to get your hands on a
Immortal King Token first. Only with an Immortal King Token
can one have a chance at a Mark of an Immortal King. As for
the highest tier Mark of an Immortal King, you can forget about
it for now," Ming Long commented with a sigh.
The might of the immortal lords in this place had intimidated
her.
Other than conversations about the descendants of eternal
immortal emperors or large immortal tribes, Wu Yu also heard
other information. Everyone was discussing the Great Void
Immortal Path, and it was impossible not to hear them.
"The Great Void Immortal Path is also known as Endless River
of Stars. It is said that it’s a vast and boundless universe with
trillions of stars and planets. When we get there, some planets
might hold an Immortal King Battlefield. Marks of an Immortal
King are hidden in some of these Immortal King Battlefields.
At that time, one has to battle the heavenly guards protecting
the Immortal King Battlefield and also other competitors. At
the same time, one has to break the immortal design around the
Immortal King Battlefield. It will be an uphill task."
"The Endless River of Stars was the barracks of the Tian You
Immortal Army in other times. There is a large number of Tian
You Immortal Army soldiers, and they are ruled by Marshal
Tian You. If anyone defeats them, he could also receive a Mark
of an Immortal King. Therefore, the Tian You Immortal Army
will also be a dreadful competitor. Among them, there isn’t a
lack of compelling characters!"
Wu Yu heard several descriptions of what to expect in the Great
Void Immortal Path.
"Rule the River of Stars and Marshal Tian You?" Wu Yu turned
to the Full Moon of Nanshan.
The Full Moon of Nanshan mumbled, "Marshal Tian Peng and
Marshal Tian You... Do they share the same rank and title?"
Wu Yu nodded and said, "The titles are very similar, so it’s
very likely. Moreover, both of them seem to head an immortal
army of the sky palaces. This suggests that the immortal that
gave you the legacy was likely at the level of Marshal Tian
You. Nonetheless, although the chances are high, we can’t be
certain for now."
The Full Moon of Nanshan asked, "Could you ask around to
find out roughly what cultivation level he is at?"
Wu Yu went with his suggestion.
He wandered around and stopped from time to time instead of
asking others directly. Others would likely find him to be crazy.
In the end, based on his conjecture, he said, "He’s likely to be
higher than the 36 Heavenly Generals, the Primeval Mighty
Miracle God, the 28 Mansions, and the Big Dipper Lord, but
slightly below the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor
of the Five Directional Divine Emperors. If he’s a marshal of
the sky palaces, he should be a frightening character."

The Full Moon of Nanshan had a rough understanding.

"This has exceeded my expectations. I never expected Marshal
Tian Peng to be such a compelling character. If he’s really at
the level of Marshal Tian You, then the four of us are in luck!"
The Full Moon of Nanshan couldn’t help but feel grateful.
"Ye Xixi said, "Although the Curtain Lifting General is likely
a general too, the words ‘curtain lifting’ suggest that he’s
someone close to the Jade Emperor. He’s probably a powerful
figure too. As for Big Brother Yu, what rank was the Great
Sage, Heaven’s Equal? Does it mean equal to the sky palaces?
That would be...."
Based on this train of thought, the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal
would really be intimidating.
Wu Yu chuckled and said, "Forget it, let’s not make wild
guesses. We will know in the future. If we think too deeply into
it and it turns out they weren’t at the level we believed,
wouldn’t we be a joke? For example, Marshal Tian You is the
number two figure coordinating with the Eastern Sublime
Gracious Divine Emperor to ensure the smooth running of the
contest for Marks of an Immortal King in the Great Void
Immortal Path. At least in the vicinity of the Sublime Gracious
Sky, he should be just second to the Eastern Sublime Gracious
Divine Emperor. Other immortals are likely not as great as he
is."
"I’m just dreaming a bit. Haha! If there’s a day I could become
someone like Marshal Tian Peng or reach his level, that would
be so satisfying. Ruling an entire immortal army, there are
bound to be numerous beauties. Wouldn’t that mean they
would all be mine?"
At the thought of this, the Full Moon of Nanshan started
drooling.
"Be careful, you won’t live to that day after thinking so much
about it. You won’t even get to touch an immortal beauty." Ye
Xixi pouted.
"Eh~ How dare you curse me! Do you believe I will boil your
cat and eat it?" The Full Moon of Nanshan fanned himself with
his beauty fan and revealed a sinister smile.
"Meow!"
The All Amalgamating Cat jumped up and down in fear. All of
a sudden, it stopped and became a little restless.
"Big Brother Yu, Lazy is saying that it can sense its own kind
from that shop!" Ye Xixi said in a hurry.
"Own kind? An All Amalgamating Cat?" Wu Yu and the Full
Moon of Nanshan were astonished. They looked to the side and
saw a huge immortal retail shop named Spirits of the Universe
Specialty Shop!
So it was a shop that specialized in the sale of Spirits of the
Universe. It was not surprising that Wu Yu was sensing weird
auras from within.
A rare and precious Spirit of the Universe like the All
Amalgamating Cat was in it?
Wu Yu hurried over. Although the shop was huge, there
weren’t many people in it as the immortals were busy finding
Immortal King Tokens. The owner of the shop was a 6-realm
immortal lord. When he saw Wu Yu come in and realized that
he was just a xuan immortal, he was too lazy to even open his
eyes and he said, "Let me know if you are interested in
anything."
All the Spirits of the Universe in this place were imprisoned
within immortal treasures. Wu Yu naturally saw an All
Amalgamating Cat with a single glance. It was almost the size
of Lazy and was jumping around in the immortal treasure
medium. Clearly, it wasn’t willing to be trapped in it.
It was restless and constantly crying.
"It’s so pitiful. Big Brother Yu, I want to find a companion for
Lazy," Ye Xixi said anxiously. Lazy was also getting restless
and jumping around. It was extremely dissatisfied to see its own
kind treated badly.
Wu Yu took a look at the price tag. Fortunately, this was the
cheapest Spirit of the Universe, and it cost five Genesis
Mystical Pills.
Wu Yu only had that many with him......
There was a description saying, "Spiritual Tracking Cat.
Extremely acute sense of smell and can rely on a mystical sense
to trace any existence.”
It seemed like the owner of the shop wasn’t aware that once the
All Amalgamating Cat recognized its master, it could fuse with
the master to further enhance the master’s strength.
"I’d like this Spiritual Tracking Cat," said Wu Yu.
"Huh?" The owner of the shop didn’t believe Wu Yu could
afford it.
At this point, someone behind Wu Yu said, "I’ll be taking the
All Amalgamating Cat. I’ll give you 50 Genesis Mystical
Pills."
This was a coincidence.
Lazy had just discovered another All Amalgamating Cat, and
the immortal owner did not seem to know what it was capable
of.
He had thought that he could casually buy it with what funds
he had. He was already preparing to finish the deal.
Ye Xixi was very happy, and Lazy even more elated. It was
finally going to have a companion. Lazy was a large white cat,
sleek and big. However, the All Amalgamating Cat in this shop
was a small black cat. It was slightly younger than Lazy.
But suddenly, a spanner had been thrown into the works.
Besides, her words clearly belied the fact that she knew what
an All Amalgamating Cat was, and very well at that.
The voice from behind was cold and regal, yet also very
alluring. Within the voice, there was a compelling charm.
Wu Yu had never heard such a mesmerizing voice before. It
was enough to dazzle most immortals to distraction, their
emotions running wild.
He turned back quickly, and was himself mesmerized by the
one speaking.
She was an elite immortal of the sky palaces, an air of mystery
and elegance hanging about her. She was someone of a high
bloodline, although Wu Yu had never seen her before in the sky
palaces.
The woman was wearing a black skirt, and her incredible body
was shown off to the fullest. There was an unspeakably
seductive quality about her. Her black hair was tied up with a
pink hairband, and her skin flushed a pale pink. She took one’s
breath away, and could even take one’s soul away. Her lips
were dainty as cherries, and drew one irresistibly in.
In the mortal domain, beauties were described as being able to
bring nations to ruin. As for this beauty, she could send the
entire 8,000 Sky Palaces into riot. Immortals would fall for her
left and right.
Being so close to her, Wu Yu was naturally taken aback, his
heart leaping wildly.
The only blemish in her perfection was that this girl did not
laugh or smile. Her eyes were emotionless, even lifeless. She
had an air of superiority about her, as if she was accustomed to
a high status here. She exuded authority that was honed over
countless years.
Of course, this was also why others feared and respected her.
That icy manner was both dreadful and attractive.
When she walked in and saw the All Amalgamating Cat, the
owner in front of Wu Yu hastily bowed to her. "This humble
immortal greets Immortal Mo. Anything that Immortal Mo
requires, this humble immortal will fetch. This humble
immortal dares not accept the riches of Immortal Mo. Take it
as this puny immortal’s gift to the great one."
Seeing this shop keeper so excited and flustered, this All
Amalgamating Cat snatcher seemed to be someone important.
It was frustrating for Wu Yu.
He could see how much Xixi and Lazy wanted this little black
cat. Both the girl and the cat were looking absolutely
heartbroken. After all, they had been so close.
Immortal Mo did not speak, but instead walked towards Wu
Yu. The All Amalgamating Cat was right in front of Wu Yu,
who was in her way. She shot him a look, and said sharply,
"Move."
Wu Yu was not happy about this. No matter how pretty she
was, this was not right. He was just about to give her a piece of
her mind, but he glanced out and saw that all of the middle-
aged companions of Immortal Mo were at Immortal King level!
No one even dared to come close. Wu Yu had been in Immortal
Dragon Imperial Realm for a while, and knew how scary this
bunch were.
Evidently, they were Immortal Mo’s bodyguards, which meant
that Immortal Mo was at least an 8-realm immortal lord. She
was far above Wu Yu, and definitely the child of some elite
immortal. She was not to be crossed.
This situation was a forgone conclusion, and there was no point
pushing it. Here in the sky palaces, he knew when to keep his
head down. He gave way, but his eyes showed no subservience.
However, as he gave way, Immortal Mo no longer looked at
him. She snatched up the All Amalgamating Cat with some
excitement. It was still quite desperate, trying to claw its way
out of her grasp.
"I do not accept your gift." Taking the All Amalgamating Cat
with her, Immortal Mo threw down more than 50 Genesis
Mystical Pills and turned at her slim waist, walking out of the
Spirit of the Universe shop. The Immortal Kings outside
gathered around to offer congratulations.
Wu Yu had obviously chosen the item already, and she had
snatched it away from him. And yet she had not even given him
a second glance. Wu Yu was extremely unhappy, even though
she was a great beauty.
"She was really beautiful. But she made our little girl cry. If
there’s a chance next time, I will definitely severely punish that
little girl!" the Full Moon of Nanshan fumed.
Indeed, Ye Xixi was agitated to the point of tears from seeing
the All Amalgamating Cat disappear before her eyes. She had
really wanted to find a companion for Lazy. Lazy was
heartbroken as well, looking outside forlornly and meowing
pitifully.
The little black cat also knew about Lazy, and was craning its
head out of Immortal Mo’s grasp, mewling adorably but
pitifully in their direction.
"If only we had been a bit earlier, she wouldn’t have been able
to snatch it...." Ye Xixi said tearfully.
She was indeed miserable.
Wu Yu took a deep breath. "If that person is here, they must be
participating in the Great Void Immortal Path. Perhaps we will
meet her again. At that time, I’ll see if I’m able to get your little
cat back."
"Big Brother Yu, you better not. That person has Immortal
Kings protecting her. She’s definitely not someone that we can
cross. Big Sister Luo Pin is still awaiting your return. Let’s not
get into trouble," Ye Xixi said.
"Don’t worry. We’ll see when the time comes."
Behind him, the owner happily put away the Genesis Mystical
Pills. Wu Yu also walked out of the shop. Many people were
watching the Immortal Mo, surrounded by her Immortal Kings.
They were whispering in hushed voices.
Wu Yu heard that this Immortal Mo was called Mo Yuji. She
seemed like an important person, and would enter the Great
Void Immortal Path to fight for a Mark of an Immortal King.
She seemed to have been a 9-realm immortal lord for a while
now, and was suspected to be the strongest amongst the 100
million who held Immortal King Tokens.
Mo Yuji had a solid background. Wu Yu was just trying to find
out what exactly it was, when suddenly a bright beam of light
flashed down from the clouds. Many immortals appeared, and
all of them were noteworthy Immortal Kings. They had
someone in their center, and that was a fairly terrifying
immortal. He eclipsed all of them in power. Everyone fell to
their knees involuntarily!
Wu Yu could vaguely see that this immortal was green all over,
and he had purple hair. He looked angry. He wore red clothes
and held a black instrument in his hand. It was a pipa!
At this time, probably half of Benevolent Immortal City,
including many immortal lords and Immortal Kings, were on
their knees. They called out loudly, "Our greetings to the
Dhrtarastra, it is a great honor."
"Dhrtarastra?" Wu Yu racked his brains, rifling through the
memories of the criminals that he had devoured in the Dragon
Emperor’s Prisons. He had seen much and had a decent
understanding of the sky palaces. The name Dhrtarastra
sounded very familiar. He considered it carefully, and suddenly
was so frightened that he was rendered speechless.
"This Dhrtarastra is one of the four Heavenly Kings! He guards
the Jade Emperor’s Spirit of Heaven Jeweled Hall! The east is
the Dhrtarastra, and the south is the Virudhaka! In the west is
the Virupaksa! In the north is the Vaisravana!” [1]

They were definitely right at the heart of the Jade Emperor’s

regard! In terms of status, they had to be close to Marshal Tian
You! He was someone who was very close to the Jade
Emperor!
To think that one of the Spirit of Heaven Jeweled Hall’s Four
Heavenly Kings would actually appear here at the Sublime
Gracious Sky! The Dhrtarastra was a legend, and definitely one
of the great immortals that Wu Yu was enamored with. He had
to be one of the strongest beings in the entirety of the Heavenly
Domain!
Wu Yu had not expected someone of his cultivation level to be
able to see the peak of the Heavenly Domain.
Wu Yu guessed that the Nine Great Dragon Emperors might
not even be able to match the Dhrtarastra’s power. After all, he
was a heavenly king.
Dhrtarastra’s name was Mo Lihai.
From the surname, Wu Yu suddenly recalled that the immortal
from before was called Mo Yuji. Could she be related to the
Dhrtarastra?
As expected, only Mo Yuji did not kneel when the Dhrtarastra
appeared. She said, "Father, why are you here?"
The Dhrtarastra said solemnly, "The Primeval Mighty Miracle
God’s son is also joining the contest for a Mark of an Immortal
King. He invited me to receive his hospitality. You’ll come
with me."
"That guy? I’m not going," Mo Yuji said.
"Nonsense." Dhrtarastra curled a hand, and Mo Yuji vanished
before their eyes, probably taken away by the Dhrtarastra. The
bodyguard Immortal Kings also joined the Dhrtarastra’s party
and streaked off towards the east, disappearing in a flash.
Only then did the suffocating aura over Benevolent Immortal
City vanish, and they felt like they could finally breathe again.
"Who is this Dhrtarastra? He seems really powerful," the Full
Moon of Nanshan asked.
Wu Yu told them.
The Full Moon of Nanshan’s face changed. "So he’s the general
of the armies that guard the emperor of all the sky palaces? No
wonder he’s so strong. Little girl, best lay your hopes to rest.
That beauty is the daughter of one of the Four Heavenly Kings.
Snatching something from her is suicidal."
Ye Xixi retorted, "Weren’t you just saying you were going to
punish her?"
"Haha, did I say that? Haha...." the Full Moon of Nanshan
cackled.
Wu Yu was deep in thought. This Mark of an Immortal King
fight would be much harder than he had imagined. Elite
immortals had come from all over to contest, even the likes of
a Four Heavenly King’s daughter. There were many experts of
that caliber.
No wonder the Sublime Gracious Sky was such a bustling
place.
"Well, first come first served stands everywhere, no matter her
status."
Wu Yu saw that Ye Xixi was still forlorn, and he made a mental
note of this. He was very confident in himself. On the Great
Void Immortal Path, one would depend on oneself. Perhaps he
could win back the little black cat?
"Meow!" Lazy was still teary.
Benevolent Immortal City became a little calmer after the
Dhrtarastra left.
However, Wu Yu still heard the majority of the people talking
about the Dhrtarastra when he wandered around.
"Will there be a ninth grade Mark of an Immortal King this
time? Why would the daughter of the Dhrtarastra, Mo Yuji,
also participate?"
"That is definitely the case. She probably won’t even be
interested in an eighth grade Mark of an Immortal King!
Someone like her would definitely want the best Mark of an
Immortal King possible."
"I’m so envious. That’s the daughter of one of the Four
Heavenly Kings! The Dhrtarastra is even more revered than the
Primeval Mighty Miracle God, the Culmination Honored Sage
Great Emperor, the Ruling Sky Manifesting Sage Great
Emperor, the other Five Mountains Emperor Lords, the 36
Heavenly Generals that we could only look up to, and the
eternal immortal emperors from various places."
"The Sublime Gracious Sky is indeed filled with experts
nowadays. After all, even the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine
Emperor might be here personally. He’s a much more
frightening character than the Dhrtarastra."
"That’s a given. The only ones that are above the Dhrtarastra
are the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor and Marshal
Tian You, who is in the Great Void Immortal Path.
Over the past few days, Wu Yu had received lots of information
regarding the elite immortals across the sky palaces. Even he
had to admit that the number of elite immortals in this place
was simply beyond imagination. This place was still the
territory of immortals. Even immortal beasts were forced to
hold a small corner as their territories and were ruled by the sky
palaces. For example, the Nine Great Dragon Emperors could
be said to be positions in the sky palaces. They were likely
slightly higher than the Dhrtarastra.
"The question is still how can I get an Immortal King Token?
Those that have Immortal King Tokens currently are acting
otherwise and wouldn’t dare to reveal their treasure, lest they
provoke a calamity. Some have even gone into hiding. As for
those that don’t have any Immortal King Tokens, they have
been wandering around aimlessly, searching for an opportunity
to obtain one." Wu Yu was observing the gazes of the people
around him. He could roughly tell that most of the people
wandering around were searching for Immortal King Tokens.
Even though Wu Yu was just a xuan immortal, he was often
looked upon as one others would want to try their luck on.
"Those that are in possession of an Immortal King Token are
largely staying in immortal cities. Therefore, although the
killings are brutal and intense outside the cities, those that truly
possess Immortal King Tokens are scarce and few. Although
killing is common outside, it is hard to hide subsequently.
Therefore, regardless of whether one is in or out of the city, the
chances of finding an Immortal King Token aren’t high,"said
the Full Moon of Nanshan.
Ye Xixi said, "The key is still because those immortal lords are
too strong. Those who are confident of standing a chance are at
least 5-realm immortal lords or stronger. The most commonly
seen are 6-realm and 7-realm immortal lords. These people
have cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years. At this
point, they are beyond what Big Brother Yu can handle and
therefore it is hard for us to take the risk as well." Although Wu
Yu had the Somersault Cloud, it wasn’t omnipotent. If he were
targeted, he might be assassinated before he even realized what
was happening to him. This was an idea fraught with risk. For
many elite immortal lords, assassinating a xuan immortal
would just take a blink.
"Genesis Mystical Pills are used as common currency in
Benevolent Immortal City, but I only have five pills with me. I
can’t even afford to rent an inn and therefore can’t put a roof
over our heads."
Therefore, Wu Yu couldn’t settle down. He could only wander
around Benevolent Immortal City while searching for clues of
Immortal King Tokens.
It would take more than a year to wander every corner of
Benevolent Immortal City.
"Strange...." When Wu Yu turned into a street, he suddenly
found himself on an empty street in the lively Benevolent
Immortal City!
Unsurprisingly, an intense murderous intent locked on to him!
He instantly understood that he was trapped within the
autonomous realm of an immortal lord! Only when one was
trapped in an autonomous realm would he be separated from
the world outside!
This person was about to attack him in the lively market! Wu
Yu knew that if a commotion or ruckus was caused by a battle
in the lively market, the people involved would be slain by an
immortal emperor.
"Wu Yu?" All of a sudden, a sword immortal in a white robe
stood on the opposite end of the street. He was holding a razor-
sharp longsword and had used spirit designs to mask his
appearance. There was a crossed sword symbol across his white
robe! Wu Yu understood why this person knew about his name
and identity immediately.
Within the Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory, he had killed
someone with the same clothes and even devoured him. From
the memories he obtained, he knew that the person was from an
assassination group in the 8,000 Sky Palaces known as the
Immortal Slayer Palace. The group had extensive reach and
strength.
The people from the Immortal Slayer Palace would risk their
lives for wealth. Once that person showed up, he locked on to
Wu Yu. When he verified Wu Yu’s identity, he struck to kill
immediately!
At this point, Wu Yu had become widely knowledgeable. He
knew that this person was at least a 5-realm immortal lord and
wasn’t someone he could handle!
He reacted swiftly! Once he recognized the other party, he
released the Spirit Chaser Art towards his opponent.
Immediately after, he flipped backwards and used the
Somersault Cloud to escape the domain of his opponent. Even
so, the other party’s sword qi tore through the space and left
several bloody wounds on Wu Yu within a short period.
Wu Yu appeared in another area!
He was surrounded by people, and they weren’t pleased with
him suddenly popping out. Wu Yu apologized frantically
before concealing himself within the crowd.
He was astonished.
"I’ve been in the sky palaces for such a short time. Who would
be willing to spend a large amount of wealth to hire an assassin
from the Immortal Slayer Palace to assassinate me?"
The Full Moon of Nanshan answered, "Who else could it be?
When you arrived in the sky palaces, the first person you killed
was the Ancient Emperor. He isn’t around anymore and
wouldn’t have such wealth. In the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm, you only offended the Tian Ming Dragon Lord and
utterly embarrassed him. It’s definitely him."
Ye Xixi said, "Yeah. This isn’t likely to be the decision of the
Sky Chariot Dragon King, as they wouldn’t be interested in
resorting to such means. It seems like the doing of that narrow-
minded man."
"It’s most likely him."
Moreover, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord would also have the
wealth to do so.
"What a sore loser!" Wu Yu scoffed.
"However, the rules of the Immortal Slayer Palace mean they
will attempt to murder me constantly despite failure until I lose
my life. They might even switch assassins! For them to know
I’m in Benevolent Immortal City and identifying me amongst
the crowd so quickly... they are indeed frightening." Wu Yu
furrowed his brows.
This would mean that he would be constantly under threat
moving forward.
"You are a xuan immortal now, so it’s definitely easy to spot
you. In the entire city, you are probably the only xuan immortal
I can see," said the Full Moon of Nanshan.

It was also because of that that it was easier for the Immortal
Slayer Palace to find Wu Yu.
"It was a close shave just now. If the assassin from the Immortal
Slayer Palace finds out about my escape technique, he will
definitely act more quickly and more ruthlessly the next time.
I’m in the open, while he’s in the dark. This is indeed
cumbersome."
Wu Yu had not expected to be followed by an assassin when he
was here to search for an Immortal King Token. This would
make things a lot more complicated and he would be forced to
hide himself.
He could also transform into others. However, those he could
transform into were only xuan immortals. Moreover, they were
all prisoners on death sentences. He would still stick out while
wandering Benevolent Immortal City.
Ye Xixi asked, "Big Brother, you can send a message to the
three dragon kings, telling them that Tian Ming has employed
assassins to kill you. They could then force Tian Ming to retract
the order."
Wu Yu thought about it before shaking his head and saying,
"Forget it. I don’t want her to worry about me. Moreover, Tian
Ming would never admit to it. At the very most, the Sky Chariot
Dragon King would just reprimand him. Nonetheless, my main
concern is still not to let Luo Pin worry about me."
If she knew Wu Yu was being followed by an assassin and
might be killed at any time, she would likely be so worried that
she wouldn’t be able to eat or sleep peacefully.
"Benevolent Immortal City is huge and the situation isn’t that
dire yet. If I remain in the crowd at all times, he won’t dare to
make a move. Previously, I wandered into a deserted area and
therefore gave him the opportunity to strike."
Where he was currently, people were everywhere. Moreover,
all of them were observing their surroundings carefully. It
would be impossible for that assassin to make a move again. If
he did and caused a commotion, he would die too.
This assassin wouldn’t intimidate Wu Yu, and Wu Yu wouldn’t
waver his determination to obtain an Immortal King Token.
Next, he switched to the other end of Benevolent Immortal City
and chose specifically to move within the crowd. Although he
drew unfriendly gazes from numerous immortal lords, he was
basically safe.
Several days later, he suddenly heard large cheering sounds
from ahead. He lifted his head and saw a huge immortal hall in
front of him. The signboard was arranged from a large number
of bones from ancient immortal beasts into three creepy words:
10,000 Immortals Battlefield.
"What is this place?" asked Ye Xixi.
Wu Yu answered, "Probably a place for immortals to fight. In
this place, they wager in battle openly. Moreover, they
participate willingly, and it won’t be considered as causing a
ruckus. Many people even wager on Immortal King Tokens in
this place! Obviously, that would be the largest prize. A typical
person wouldn’t reveal that he has an Immortal King Token.
However, this might be a safe place. Within the 10,000
Immortals Battlefield, other than the battlefields, no one is
allowed to fight. Moreover, there are many people arranged to
patrol the place and control the situation. This might be an asset
of some immortal emperor, so no one would dare to cause
trouble in this place."
This suggested that he would have an opportunity to get an
Immortal King Token if he entered the 10,000 Immortals
Battlefield. Moreover, he could also avoid the assassin from the
Immortal Slayer Palace. First, as long as he did not enter the
battlefield to fight, he wouldn’t be in any danger. Second, that
place was extremely raucous. Immortal lords were everywhere,
so it would be even harder for the assassin of the Immortal
Slayer Palace to find Wu Yu.
Therefore, Wu Yu decided to enter the place.
Although the 10,000 Immortals Battlefield was gigantic, it was
almost filled at this point. Wu Yu had to pay the price of three
Genesis Mystical Pills for him to have the right to loiter around
and gamble.
The place was colossal and probably fit over 10,000
battlefields. Moreover, each battlefield was surrounded by
mountains of people gambling. The spectators could bet on
who would win, while those in the battlefield can put up
something as wager. Basically, this was similar to the gamble
fights Wu Yu had seen in the mortal domain. At the very most,
the rules were slightly more complicated.
Wu Yu watched battles between several immortal lords and
was impressed by the excitement. However, most of them were
largely trying to win more money before the Great Void
Immortal Path opened. He hadn’t seen anyone who was willing
to gamble an Immortal King Token.
Other than individual battles, there were also team battles.
Team battles would roughly consist of 10 on each side.
Everyone would go in at the same time and changes were
occuring at all times. Ups and downs were more frequent, and
team battles were more interesting overall.
"Who has an Immortal King Token and who doesn’t?"
This seemed to be the greatest challenge for all those interested.
Wu Yu observed the numerous immortal lords around him.
None of them seemed to hold an Immortal King Token, and
they were clearly on edge.
However, there were definitely some among them who had one.
Furthermore, even if they had one, they wouldn’t carry their
Immortal King Token with them. Instead, they would hide them
in other places. That way, even if they were killed, others
wouldn’t be able to get their Immortal King Token.
However, things might also turn out differently from their
expectations. Hiding the Immortal King Tokens in other places
might make it easier for others to steal.
If Wu Yu had one, he would hide it in the Floating Dreams
Pagoda. If others wanted it, they would have to form a blood
bond with his Floating Dreams Pagoda to have the possibility
of getting it. Alternatively, they would have to destroy the
Floating Dreams Pagoda.
Considering the difficult circumstances he was in and having
an assassin from the Immortal Slayer Palace on his tail, it was
too daunting for him to get an Immortal King Token.
He didn’t have a clue currently. However, he still had 20 years.
Therefore, he wasn’t particularly anxious. Spending a few
years to see how things would develop was still acceptable.
If it wasn’t for the fact that fighting in the wilderness was so
dangerous and there were few he could defeat, he wouldn’t
have entered in Benevolent Immortal City.
Wu Yu loitered around in the 10,000 Immortals Battlefield for
half a month. Through betting, he won over 30 Genesis
Mystical Pills.
Over this period, the assassin from the Immortal Slayer Palace
had indeed not targeted him.
However, Wu Yu also didn’t receive any news of Immortal
King Tokens.
There was once when someone used an Immortal King Token
as the wager of a bet. It was sensational, and that person lost
the Immortal King Token in the end. However, there were
rumors that the one who won it was found dead in a corner of
Benevolent Immortal City the next day.
Everyone here was a ravenous wild beast. Once an Immortal
King Token so much as showed a glimpse, the one holding it
might very well be torn to shreds.
There were plenty of elite experts who still didn’t have an
Immortal King Token. Therefore, exposing one’s Immortal
King Token would be no different from courting one’s own
death.
On this day, while Wu Yu was wandering around, a team battle
happening in one of the battlefields attracted his attention.
This was a team of nine people against a team of 10. They were
evenly matched, but the team of nine had a battle formation.
Through the battle formation, the team of nine was able to
support and protect one another. As a result, they held the
advantage over the team of 10. This battle drew the attention of
many people, and Wu Yu understood why after a single glance
as the items put for wager. Many people did not think highly of
the team of nine, yet the team of nine was about to defeat their
opponents without sustaining any severe injuries.
Wu Yu watched the thrilling battle. Seeing the great chemistry
and coordination of the team of nine, he felt a little envious.
Someone beside him said, "It’s Xu Zidong from the Ancient
Ink Camp again! He acted weak at the start and ended up
winning a large sum the previous time! These people they are
facing should have asked around about the Ancient Ink Camp’s
Pack Wolves Immortal Battle Formation."
"Isn’t this great? Because of them, I won quite a sum. Haha...."
Initially, Wu Yu didn’t feel anything about their conversation.
When he widened his eyes and saw an immortal in purple
within the team of nine on the battlefield, he was shocked. This
immortal was refined, good-looking, and the core of the team
of nine. He was probably a 7-realm immortal lord and was
especially powerful. Clearly, this immortal was likely Xu
Zidong.
"Ancient Ink Camp? Xu Zidong? Could he be the founding sect
leader of Ancient Ink Sect 600,000 years ago in the Great
Ancient Ink Realm? He’s a legendary figure in the Great
Ancient Ink Realm who ascended to immortalhood. Who
would have thought that I would encounter someone from the
Great Ancient Ink Realm that was from 600,000 years ago?"
Wu Yu was stumped. He felt like he was watching a history
unfold before him. Fortunately, he had achieved immortalhood
as well and knew that immortals had long lifespans. 600,000
years was equivalent to only five yuans. For an immortal, it
wasn’t dreadfully long. However, in the mortal domain, that
was countless generations and cycles of life and death.
"It must be him. Otherwise, why would he name his team the
Ancient Ink Camp?" Wu Yu was almost certain. Watching Xu
Zidong, he was intelligent, sharp, and witty. It was just like the
stories that had been passed down in the Great Ancient Ink
Realm.
As he had devoured a large number of immortals from the Great
Ancient Ink Realm, Wu Yu was knowledgeable of the Great
Ancient Ink Realm.
"This could be considered as seeing someone from the same
place!" Wu Yu chuckled.
Most of the immortals here had ascended from the mortal
domain. It was just that their time in the mortal domain was too
short, while their time as immortals was too long. It was easy
for many people to forget about their lives in the mortal
domain.
"Xu Zidong is pretty good. However, the second in command
of the team, the one named Qin Chuan, isn’t bad himself. His
destinable immortal treasure is likely the Mountains and Rivers
Sword with probably 400 million spirit designs. While waving
it, mountains and rivers circle, and the sky crumbles and the
earth shatters into countless rays of sword qi."
"Qin Chuan is compelling, but Xu Zidong’s Towering Sky
Immortal City is still a notch stronger. That’s a destinable
immortal treasure city. The one named Qing Yuli has a unique
destinable immortal treasure, the Forgetful Smile Scroll. And
there’s Ye Yi, who uses a long spear, the Nine Regional Soul
Piercer. That’s a pretty good destinable immortal treasure too."
Wu Yu was getting overwhelmed from listening to their
conversation.
It had to be. Wu Yu was familiar with these names. This was
because they were all from the Great Ancient Ink Realm.
Qin Chuan was once an unparalleled supreme sword immortal
in the Great Ancient Ink Realm 500,000 years ago.
Qing Yuli was a flirtatious scholar of the Great Ancient Ink
Realm. He was born a mortal and eventually achieved
immortalhood after inheriting a legacy
And there was Ye Yi, who was also from the Great Ancient Ink
Realm. Moreover, he was once the sect leader of the Great
Ancient Ink Realm. He was a junior to Xu Zidong and had
ascended 400,000 years ago.
With all four of them coming from the Great Ancient Ink
Realm, Wu Yu couldn’t help but suspect the entire Ancient Ink
Camp to be from the Great Ancient Ink Realm!
He had never expected to encounter so many immortals from
the Great Ancient Ink Realm in the sky palaces. Moreover, it
was clear that they were aiming to enter the Great Void
Immortal Path to become immortal kings.
Wu Yu thought, "If those nine are from the Great Ancient Ink
Realm, are familiar with this place, and are searching for
Immortal King Tokens, I can meet and befriend them to get
more information. In fact, I can even pretend to be their juniors
from the Great Ancient Ink Realm and join their team. At the
very least, it would be better than me wandering around like a
headless fly.

"Moreover, Xu Zidong is a 7-realm immortal lord. He can

probably protect me - Tian Ming definitely couldn’t afford to
hire a 7-realm immortal lord to assassinate me."
At the thought of this, Wu Yu formulated the next steps in his
plan. As a xuan immortal, moving alone would be an eyesore.
If he had a group of friends around him, it would be better.
Moreover, they could be said to be from the same hometown,
the Great Ancient Ink Realm!
Just as expected, the Ancient Ink Camp was victorious in the
battle. Amidst the congratulatory cheers, they carried the
rewards they won and went off the stage. Most likely, they
would not show up again.
They seemed to be on extremely good terms. Perhaps this was
because they were from the same realm. Therefore, they were
addressing one another as brothers and sisters. Xu Zidong was
the eldest brother, Qin Chuan was the second brother, Qing
Yuli was the third brother, Ye Yi was the fourth brother. As for
the remaining few, Wu Yu couldn’t recognize them at this
point. There were nine of them, and the weakest was a 4-realm
immortal lord.
There was only one lady among the team of nine. However, that
lady was rowdy and often put her arms around the shoulders of
those around her. Nonetheless, she was stunningly beautiful,
voluptuous, and like a wild horse that was hard to tame.
"She’s probably Yang Wenlan, one of the ancestors of the
Great Ancient Ink Realm." The people in the Great Ancient Ink
Realm pictured their ancestors who had achieved
immortalhood as wearing long robes, having white beards,
solemn, aged, and enlightened. However, judging from how
they looked, they resembled a group of teenagers in the sky
palaces.
The Ancient Ink Camp didn’t exit the 10,000 Immortals
Battlefield. With the money they had won, they rented a resting
room within the 10,000 Immortals Battlefield. Naturally, they
would set up immortal designs to surround and seal the space
they were in temporarily. After a long and intense battle, they
had to recuperate before they could go for another round.
Wu Yu decided to pay them a visit directly as an immortal from
the Great Ancient Ink Realm. After, Wu Yu’s familiarity with
them had no openings at all.
He went to the front of the hall that was sealed and was about
to knock when someone opened the door. A young man walked
out, and he was the youngest member of the Ancient Ink Camp.
He was tall and slender, good-looking and heroic. When he saw
Wu Yu, his face turned cold and he asked, "Who are you? Why
are you hiding at our doorstep?"
Just as he was exiting, he bumped into Wu Yu.
Therefore, he didn’t look too pleased. This was to be expected
as he might assume that Wu Yu was someone who had come
to spy on them. Therefore, Wu Yu smiled and said, "Good day.
I saw the battle of Ancient Ink Camp previously and recognized
several of my seniors. I’m an immortal that has ascended from
the Great Ancient Ink Realm too...."
Before he could finish his words, that man waved his hand and
scoffed, "Stop lying. You must be here to see if we hold any
Immortal King Tokens, right? What Great Ancient Ink Realm?
Scram!"
Wu Yu was indignant. Just as he wanted to speak, the face of
the other party turned even gloomier and shouted, "If you aren’t
getting lost, don’t blame me for being rude. A xuan immortal
like you dares to spy on us?"
At this point, if Wu Yu didn’t leave, he would probably attack.
Subduing a xuan immortal was still within his abilities.
"What’s the commotion about?" At this point, the only lady,
Yang Wenlan, walked out from the place and saw Wu Yu.
"Sixth sister, he’s just cannon fodder, and he’s even pretending
to be from our Great Ancient Ink Realm. Who isn’t aware we
are from the Great Ancient Ink Realm? I’ve asked him to get
lost," said the man.
When Yang Wenlan saw Wu Yu, Wu Yu was calm and
composed. He didn’t look like those that would hide in the dark
to spy on others. Therefore, she asked, "You said you are from
the Great Ancient Ink Realm?"
Wu Yu answered, "Yeah. I even know that Senior Yang has an
alias, Yue Yin. The sect leader of the Wind Flower Snow Moon
Sect told me about it in the past."
Yang Wenlan was stumped and said, "You even know about
my alias? Let me ask you a few more questions to see if you
are really from the Great Ancient Ink Realm."
Wu Yu didn’t feel any stress at all.
When the other party asked, Wu Yu answered readily.
Questions included how large the land was, what seas and
mountains were around, and more. With them being gone for a
long time, Wu Yu knew even more details than them.
After the questioning, Yang Wenlan stared at the young man
and said, "Yun Mo, let him in. He’s indeed from our Great
Ancient Ink Realm."
After the huge fight, the nine of them were not celebrating, but
instead recuperating.
Led by Yang Wenlan and Yun Mo, Wu Yu came to stand
before the members of the Ancient Ink Camp.
The purple-haired man, Xu Zidong, suddenly opened his eyes
and looked at Wu Yu. He sized him up and snorted, "Little
Sister, you brought a lover? Seems a bit young."
Laughter.
Yang Wenlan rolled her eyes. "Piss off. This kid is called Wu
Yu. He saw our battle and followed us over. He says he’s from
Great Ancient Ink Realm, and was drawn to us. Of course, I
dare not confirm this, so I ask you brothers to test him."
Yun Mo said, "It might not mean much. Maybe he’s just an
immortal who passed through the Great Ancient Ink Realm.
Knowing a lot doesn’t count for much."
This guy instantly disliked Wu Yu. It was obvious that he was
the youngest here, and was probably doted on.
"Oh? Kin from the Great Ancient Ink Realm?"
They felt that this was quite a surprise. After all, the sky palaces
were huge, and many could not even be bothered to remember
which mortal domain they had come from. Only this bunch of
nostalgic people would remember where they had come from.
Xu Zidong stood up and walked over to Wu Yu. He looked him
over carefully and smiled. "A Xuan immortal dares to come
here, how bold. Very well, let this brother test you. My
brothers, listen well. Let’s see if this kid is from our
hometown."
Wu Yu nodded.
He was not worried in the slightest. No matter what they asked,
he would know. Besides, they had left the Great Ancient Ink
Realm too long ago, so they did not even know the Great
Ancient Ink Realm as well as Wu Yu did.
Besides, there had been many changes in the Great Ancient Ink
Realm in this time. The immortal lords here were already far
removed from the sect they had once created.
Xu Zidong asked a dozen questions that were all rather obscure.
One who had only spent a short time in Great Ancient Ink
Realm might not know them.
After he finished questioning, Xu Zidong was all smiles. He
turned to the others. "Through my questioning, I think all of
you have come to the same conclusion. I think there is no doubt
about it. Those that think he is from our hometown, raise your
hand."
Wu Yu also looked at the other eight.
Yang Wenlan laughed. "Is there any doubt? Welcome to our
cocky little brother, who dares to come to Sublime Gracious
Sky while at the Nine Xuan Dao Realm! Haha!"
She raised a hand very easily.
And then the ice-cold sword immortal, Qin Chuan. He raised
his hand, saying, "I’ve taken quite a liking to this guy."
Everyone judged for themselves, and raised their hands one
after another. Wu Yu could totally lie his way around. He
needed these powerful immortal lords by his side. Firstly, he
could seek refuge from the assassin of the Immortal Slayer
Palace. Secondly, compared to him buzzing around like a
headless housefly, now he was closer to obtaining an Immortal
King Token. After all, they might also be waiting for a chance
to get an Immortal King Token.
They might even already have the tokens.
In the end, only the youngest, Yun Mo, objected. He shook his
head and did not raise his hand. "I think we should not believe
the word of one person so easily. After all, this is the Sublime
Gracious Sky, and there are dangers aplenty. Who knows what
motives he has...."
Yang Wenlan said, "Enough from you." She threw Yun Mo a
look.
But Yun Mo did not understand. He was unhappy and went to
a corner to sulk.
The 7-realm immortal lord Xu Zidong took up his seat again.
He surveyed Wu Yu with great interest. "And what are your
intentions in seeking us out? Speak freely. We are open
people."
Wu Yu looked at them and said, "Then I’ll speak honestly.
Actually, I just came to the Sublime Gracious Sky to watch the
fun. I wanted to experience the intense atmosphere here, to see
if it was as others have said. But I regretted it after arriving.
This place is just too dangerous. Many people even think that I
have an Immortal King Token. The exits of the Well of Eternal
Life are basically all jammed up, and it’s hard to leave.
"Back then, I fled to Benevolent Immortal City, almost losing
my life. Right now, even within the city, I can only hide here at
the 10,000 Immortals Battlefield. I intended to hide until the
Great Void Immortal Path opened, and leave when the dangers
outside were gone. However, I was fortunate enough to see all
of you fighting just now. I heard of the ancestors’ names in the
legends, and came excitedly to pay my respects."
Wu Yu gave an arrested laugh. "In truth, I obviously hope that
the ancestors can bring me along. That way, I would not need
to fear losing my life. But I am just too weak, and I am afraid I
would be a burden to you. Therefore, if the ancestors find it
inappropriate, then I will just remain here at the 10,000
Immortals Battlefield."
"Hahahaha, I see. I have to say, you’re a plucky one. At your
cultivation level, coming to Benevolent Immortal City alone
through the Well of Eternal Life and not being assassinated is
a miracle in itself." Xu Zidong laughed.
Yang Wenlan said, "He’s our descendant after all. Polite and
sincere, I quite like him. Seniors, how about letting him come
along? I want to ask him more as well, about how the Great
Ancient Ink Realm has turned out."
The main thing was that Wu Yu’s cultivation level was too low.
He was just a xuan immortal, and looked like no threat.
Besides, immortals not from the Great Ancient Ink Realm
would not know it to this extent. They could more or less
confirm that Wu Yu came from the Great Ancient Ink Realm,
and therefore their defenses were dropped even further.
Ye Yi said, "No trouble. Come along, then. Our squad is strong.
It’s all good."
Qing Yuli lifted her head slightly, regarding Wu Yu with
glowing eyes. "This guy gives me a good feeling as well.
Humble and respectful, and straightforward. Not bad."
They had quite a good impression of Wu Yu. Wu Yu could also
see that this bunch of people were candid and had good
relationships. Such a big group of brothers and sisters was to be
envied.
The group more or less consented to Wu Yu following along
for the moment. Yun Mo was anxious, and leaped out of his
corner, "Brothers and sisters, think this through carefully! I
think it is not right. This is a crucial moment. Who knows what
he is up to! It’s better we don’t rock the boat. Wait for the Great
Void Immortal Path to begin...."
Saying this, his face suddenly turned pale.
Silence within the hall.
Wu Yu saw their faces turn rigid, and a jolt of understanding
passed through him.
Yun Mo had said don’t rock the boat, wait for the Great Void
Immortal Path to begin.
Who would say such a thing?
The answer was, someone with an Immortal King Token.
Yun Mo was the only 4-realm immortal lord here, and
considered the weakest and youngest. If even he was waiting
for the Great Void Immortal Path to open, that meant that
perhaps all of them had Immortal King Tokens!
Nine Immortal King Tokens!
This was a huge number!
If word of this got out, it would represent a huge danger to
them.

After all, there were too many people who wanted Immortal
King Tokens.
Yun Mo, in his haste to chase Wu Yu away, had inadvertently
blurted out their secret.
Wu Yu could only smile wryly. With this, they would not even
let him leave if he wanted to.
Some might even decide that killing him was the best way to
keep the secret. But they merely looked resigned and did not
seem to consider this.
From this, Wu Yu could tell that they were of decent character.
There was no use hiding it. Addressing the elephant in the room
would be the only way to earn their respect. Wu Yu hurriedly
said, "Seniors, please do not worry. I will not speak about it.
Seems like Senior Yun Mo also wants me to stay here. I will
follow, and all of you can keep an eye on me."
Xu Zidong
"Wu Yu, you know what you can and cannot say, right?" Xu
Zidong confirmed.
Wu Yu nodded. "I understand the current situation. Please do
not worry. I only wanted to come and borrow your strength. I
did not expect it to turn out this way. All I can do is ask for your
trust. I know that it is already an incredible blessing that you
have not killed me. Wu Yu will remember this."
His attitude was very sincere, and he did not feign ignorance of
Yun Mo’s slip either.
They thought this over, and finally Xu Zidong said, "Here in
the 10,000 Immortals Battlefield, although we can win some
trinkets, it calls attention to us. Let us return to the Ancient Ink
Residence and bide our time there. Before the Great Void
Immortal Path opens, we shall not leave."
Everyone agreed.
"Wu Yu, in the remaining 20 years, you can only come with
us."
Wu Yu smiled. "With all of you protecting me, I can ask for no
more."
Wu Yu knew that they must have discussed killing him. After
all, they had no way to fully trust Wu Yu. But they had not done
him in, which showed that they were merciful people. They
were not that savage, although Yun Mo’s killing intent was all
too apparent.
"Let’s go."
They left 10,000 Immortals Battlefield.
All along the way, Yun Mo was watching Wu Yu, as though
afraid that Wu Yu would use Immortal Message Talismans to
inform others.
Of course, even so, they would be fine once they hid in the
Ancient Ink Residence.
The Ancient Ink Residence was a place that they had rented in
Benevolent Immortal City for a considerable sum of money. It
was protected by many immortal designs and was a relatively
safe place.
After returning to the Ancient Ink Residence, they activated the
immortal designs and had someone stand guard at all times. The
immortal designs had many layers, and there was one that
completely shut out Immortal Message Talismans. Once inside,
it was impossible to send messages out.
Once back here, they were much more at ease.
"Wu Yu, I’m warning you! If you have any bad intentions, I
will be the first one to make you pay!" Yun Mo threatened him.
"Senior Yun Mo, please do not worry." It was all Wu Yu could
say.
Of course he would not leak the news. As for when this group
would fully trust him, only time would tell.
In less than a month of living together, Wu Yu had gotten to
know them all very well.
And in this month, the Ancient Ink Camp also got a measure of
what kind of person Wu Yu was. After all, Xu Zidong’s gang
were all old hands, and they knew people’s nature with one
look.
They had gambled in not killing Wu Yu, and he had indeed not
leaked the information.
Within the Ancient Ink Residence, he was much safer.
Wu Yu felt that this group of people were not bad either. They
were like real siblings, and had come together a long time ago.
Their numbers gradually grew, and they fought back to back
through everything. Amongst them, Yun Mo had come in the
latest, just about a thousand years ago.
Their boss was Xu Zidong, with the Towering Sky Immortal
City destinable immortal treasure. He was also the only 7-realm
immortal lord.
Second was Qin Chuan, who lived by the sword. He had the
Mountains and Rivers Sword, a destinable immortal treasure.
He was a 6-realm immortal lord.
Third in command was Qing Yuli, who liked to laugh and love.
He was a little like the Full Moon of Nanshan, and was a 6-
realm immortal lord. He had the destinable immortal treasure
called the Forgetful Smile Scroll.
Forth was Ye Yi, A 6-realm immortal lord wielding the Nine
Regional Soul Piercer. He was reticent and broody, but also an
interesting character.
Fifth was Jin Kaiwen, a well built and candid guy. He was also
a 6-realm immortal lord, and had the Hammer of Heaven
destinable immortal treasure.
Sixth was Wu Xiao, who was especially quick to mirth. He
liked to fight up close and had a powerful body to match it. He
was a 5-realm immortal lord, and his Blue Skies Battle Shirt
destinable immortal treasure was also respectably strong.
Seventh was Huang-Pu Yijun, an elegant prince with a suave
manner about him. He liked to play with his Phantom Immortal
Thorn Dagger, and was a 5-realm immortal lord.
Eighth was Yang Wenlan. She was the only girl, and was a 5-
realm immortal lord.
Last was, of course, Yun Mo. He was a 4-realm immortal lord,
but he was younger, and was considered the most talented of
them all. His future was bright, and his elder siblings dubbed
him as the Little Genius.
This bunch was an odd assortment. They were about to face the
Great Void Immortal Path, but they still had the heart to laugh
and joke. Their relationship was just like Wu Yu, Nanshan, and
Xixi’s. It was to be envied.
Wu Yu very quickly joined in. Very soon, they were also
calling him dao brother. As they grew more familiar with Wu
Yu, they intended to make him their 10th member. After all,
their squad was all Great Ancient Ink Realm people.
The only one who still had strong doubts about Wu Yu and
watched him like a hawk was Yun Mo, who had blurted out
their secret at the start.
"Damn, this kid’s body is something special. Jin Kaiwen and I
are together and can’t take him down!" In the yard, Wu Xiao
and the burly Jin Kaiwen were casually beaten down by Wu
Yu. This was unthinkable.
"That’s even more incredible than an immortal beast." Jin
Kaiwen was in disbelief as well.
"Hey, boy, what secrets are you hiding in that body of yours?
Let Big Sister examine you thoroughly." Yang Wenlan came
chasing him gleefully.
"That’s right, have a taste of little sister’s skills."
They were already old, but they still lived like kids.
In the night, Xu Zidong said, "Cultivation must have color. I
consider myself an interesting person, and so, being with a
bunch of interesting people, the entire horizon of dao
cultivation becomes interesting...."
"Indeed. I really envy you seniors. However, I had better earn
your trust honestly and slowly. Haha...." Wu Yu was still rather
realistic. He knew that they could not fully trust him for now.
After all, there was too much at stake.
"Actually, I’m a rather good read of people. You have your
secrets, but clearly they’re not going to be used against us. I
don’t see much darkness in your heart either," Xu Zidong said.
"Thank you." He was indeed grateful that they had not killed
him after leaking their secret to him, and had even brought him
along.
As time passed, it looked like they were settling in to pass the
20 years here. In another few months, Wu Yu had become very
familiar with all of them. Besides the suspicious Yun Mo,
everyone else hailed him as dao brother.
After all, Wu Yu quite liked their cultivation approach.
Together, they would converse and convene, sounding out
ideas and insights. Occasionally, they would also indulge in
some entertainment, playing poker or mahjong. It was an eye-
opening experience for Wu Yu.
As Wu Yu spent time with them, he came to realize that
compared to a dry cultivation of dao, learning to savor life itself
was also a dao.
But there was still no news of his Immortal King Token, and
this group obviously would not let him leave. This made Wu
Yu a little unsatisfied.
Of course, there was still time, and he was not especially
anxious.
One day, about a month later, something happened.
On this day, Wu Yu was with them, when suddenly there was
shouting outside the Ancient Ink Residence.
"Xu Zidong, we’ve finally found you and your lot. Come out,
all of you!"
Their faces changed.
"You blabbed?" Yun Mo immediately bristled with killing
intent against Wu Yu.
Xu Zidong’s face hardened. "That’s the voice of the Qing’E
Immortal Lord. They’ve come knocking."
Hearing Xu Zidong’s words, everyone’s faces changed as well.
But clearly, this had nothing to do with Wu Yu.
"Let’s go!"
Xu Zidong and the group headed out, and Wu Yu naturally
followed.
"We took one Immortal King Token from the Green Lotus Sky.
The people of the Green Lotus Sky know that we have an
Immortal King Token. We had thought to come here to hide,
where they would not be able to find us. How could they?"
Yang Wenlan was crestfallen, as she confided in Wu Yu.
This indeed had nothing to do with Wu Yu.
They were within the immortal design, and had not gone
outside. From where they stood, they could see about a dozen
people outside, and they were all immortal lords! Their leader
was an old, white-haired man dressed in green and wearing an
unfriendly expression. When Wu Yu and the others appeared,
they could also see through the immortal design.
"Big Brother, it must be Wu Yu who led them here!" Yun Mo
said to Xu Zidong.
"Shut your mouth for a moment." Xu Zidong glared at him.

At this moment, the Qing’E Immortal Lord laughed. "How

deep you’ve burrowed! Our master, the Green Lotus Immortal
King, spent a fortune on an Omniscient Eye of Heaven so that
we could find you! You must have gotten enough Immortal
King Tokens; otherwise, you would not be cowering here like
chickens."
This showed that they had found this place without any help
from Wu Yu. Yun Mo glowered, his plan to discredit Wu Yu a
flop.
Wu Yu knew why he hated him. Firstly, he did not trust him.
Secondly, he had blurted out their secret and brought
inconvenience to the group. Thirdly, because of Wu Yu, he had
been admonished by his elder siblings many times, and it had
nurtured the anger in his heart. After all, he was the youngest
and most doted on. And now they were clearly intent on
bringing Wu Yu within their folds.
However, Wu Yu was more preoccupied with the Green Lotus
Immortal King!
Wasn’t that the first level of heaven he arrived on when he
came to the sky palaces?
To think that he would actually come head to head against the
lord of the Green Lotus Sky, the Green Lotus Immortal King
himself.
Wu Yu heard Huang-Pu Yijun say softly, alarm written on his
face, "We’re in trouble now. To think that the Green Lotus
Immortal King would personally come. Seems like he’s going
to plunder Immortal King Tokens for his disciples...."
An immortal king himself had come to hunt Immortal King
Tokens for his disciples.
The Qing’E Immortal Lord was the first disciple of the Green
Lotus Immortal King. He continued, "You took the Immortal
King Token of our Green Lotus Sky. What boldness! Our
master is furious. As punishment, we give you three days to
hand over three Immortal King Tokens. Thrice the price. Let
that be a lesson to you. Let me give you a word of advice: don’t
force our master to act. Otherwise, all of you will be fucked up
so bad you might even lose your lives! And don’t think of
escaping either. We have the Ancient Ink Residence
surrounded!"
They had three days of consideration time to hand over three
Immortal King Tokens!
Everyone in the Ancient Ink Camp looked grim.
Jin Kaiwen said, "Everyone, we’ll fight our way out! We
earned these Immortal King Tokens with so much difficulty.
How can we just give away our blood, sweat, and tears!? We’ll
fight our way out. I don’t believe they dare to start a fight. The
Green Lotus Immortal King might not have arrived yet. We
have a chance, and once we cause a commotion, they’ll be in
trouble too!"
Wu Xiao said, "The Green Lotus Immortal King might be
nearby. If we fight our way out, we’re still no match for him at
all. The Green Lotus Immortal King alone could clean all of us
up. And he could do so without making a fuss. We’ve been
nailed good and proper. I think we had better bow to this wave.
Here, I choose not to go to the Great Void Immortal Path. I will
hand over my Immortal King Token."
Xu Zidong said, "Calm down. We have three days’ time. Let’s
go back and discuss."
They were extremely dispirited. Back in the great hall, they sat
in the lotus position, facing each other.
Yun Mo said urgently, "The Immortal King Tokens we have
are worth a fortune. How can we let them climb all over our
heads? I won’t stand for it! An immortal king is not allowed to
join the contest for Immortal King Tokens. The Green Lotus
Immortal King is despicable! I will report him!"
Qin Chuan scoffed. "And to whom will you complain to? He is
at our door, demanding our Immortal King Tokens for his
disciples. What can we do? Stop speaking words of anger."
Qing Yuli rolled his eyes. "Well, we were always afraid of
meeting this kind of enemy. Immortal kings have power and
authority. He can finish us off all too easily, without making
even the slightest ripple. I think it’s quite merciful of them to
only demand three Immortal King Tokens."
They were very unhappy, but reality was cruel. Evidently, they
had all forgotten about Wu Yu now.
Xu Zidong said, "In three days’ time, if we do not hand over
three Immortal King Tokens, the Green Lotus Immortal King
can just waltz in. I fear that we will lose all our Immortal King
Tokens before we even catch a glimpse of him. He is mindful
of his reputation and does not want to come across as too harsh.
He only asked for three...."
Otherwise, he would have just snatched all of them. But in that
case, the Ancient Ink Camp would definitely not stand for it,
and would’ve rushed out preemptively to fight them. The
commotion would expose all of them.
"So should we play ball and hand them over?" Jin Kaiwen was
still not happy. His eyes were inflamed, as he recalled how
much they had sacrificed and how hard they had worked for
these Immortal King Tokens over the years.
Everyone hung their heads in despair.
But at this time, Wu Yu suddenly said, "I have a way to protect
everyone’s Immortal King Tokens."
Wu Yu had not spoken until now. When he suddenly spoke, all
of them suddenly realized that he was there.
"What reliability do you even have? Do you know how
formidable an immortal king is?" Yun Mo sneered.
Wu Yu ignored him. "I have a way to get everyone out of the
Ancient Ink Residence, without even alerting the immortal
lords outside. But after we leave the Ancient Ink Residence, we
will still be within Benevolent Immortal City. I think they can
still find us. So I think we will have to risk it to escape outside
the city, or even to other immortal cities. After all, that Green
Lotus Immortal King cannot possibly use the Omniscient Eye
of Heaven again, can he?"
They were all taken aback.
Xu Zidong said, "As for hiding after we escape, we will take
special care. Even the Omniscient Eye of Heaven might not be
able to find us so easily. More importantly, can you take us out
without making the slightest sign?"
Ye Yi said, "You should know that the Qing’E Immortal Lord
outside is an 8-realm immortal lord. He is more powerful even
than Xu Zidong. They have this place closely watched."
Wu Yu smiled and nodded. "As long as you trust me, this is
very easy for me."
"I don’t believe you. If you have that ability, why would you
need to look to us for protection? Who knows, you might be
one of them." Yun Mo again sneered.
"Yun Mo, shut up." Qin Chuan was tired of his insinuations.
They all quite liked Wu Yu, but Yun Mo tried to pick a fight
with him at every turn.
However, Wu Yu ignored him.
He could now completely control the Floating Dreams Pagoda,
and could open a separate space within it. Firstly, he separated
the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi into the 100-times time
stream, then he created a space with a normal time stream,
separating the two. This would hide the Full Moon of Nanshan
and Ye Xixi from them, which would save him lot of
explaining.
"If you can trust me, enter my immortal treasure. In less than
10 breaths of time, I will have everyone free of this place," Wu
Yu said.
"Alright. We will trust you this once. If we can escape, Wu Yu,
you will officially be our brother!" Xu Zidong said.
After he declared this, basically everyone else agreed. With
this, Yun Mo could not help but agree. However, his expression
showed his sheer incredulity that Wu Yu would have such a
power.
"Let’s go in."
Xu Zidong packed some things and then led the group into the
Floating Dreams Pagoda.
"To think that a Nine Xuan Dao Realm kid like you even has a
destinable immortal treasure! You’re something special!" Xu
Zidong chuckled.
"Little Brother, we’re counting on you." Yang Wenlan smiled.
Yun Mo was the last to enter. He glared at Wu Yu. "Don’t let
me find out that you have any ill intentions towards us.
Otherwise, I’ll hunt you down!"
Wu Yu could not be bothered to reply. He was already used to
this guy’s sniping. Once they were all in the Floating Dreams
Pagoda, he immediately made a huge somersault, and the
Somersault Cloud left the Ancient Ink Residence far behind.
This time, he leaped as far as he could. When he appeared
again, he was on top of some building. He hurriedly leaped a
few more times, and was already worlds away from the Ancient
Ink Residence 10 breaths of time later.
He found a deserted corner and then let them out.
"Where is this?"
Xu Zidong and his group appeared and immediately surveyed
their surroundings. It was unfamiliar to them, and they sent
someone out to ask. They learned that this was still within
Benevolent Immortal City, but the Ancient Ink Residence was
in the east, while they were in the west. It was incredibly far!
They were safe for now!
All of them stared at Wu Yu in wonder. They were shocked
dumb.
"What skill is this, that allows you to move with such speed?"
Yun Mo asked.
Wu Yu smiled. "Don’t ask. It’s my secret. But I cannot use this
too many times. Once was enough for me. As for how we hide,
that will depend on you all."
Xu Zidong clapped Wu Yu on the shoulder. "I was right about
you. You saved us all this time. At least you’ve saved us three
Immortal King Tokens. Was it obvious when you left? Do they
know we left?"
Wu Yu said, "Not at all. If they don’t go in, they won’t know a
thing."
Qin Chuan said, “Very good. Then we have three days. The
Green Lotus Immortal King must be in Benevolent Immortal
City, nearby, or heading here.”
Xu Zidong briefed them, "Therefore, we cannot stay in
Benevolent Immortal City. We should leave this place. There
are two cities nearby. We’ll choose the slightly further Mystical
Resonance Immortal City. Let’s head there at full speed now so
we’ll have a chance to avoid them. Take extra care, everyone."
Actually, Wu Yu could have brought them directly to Mystical
Resonance Immortal City, but he could not show them too
much of his power. After all, Yun Mo still had a grudge against
him. If he snitched on Wu Yu, nothing good would come of it.
They ran like the wind, stealthily leaving the city. Wu Yu again
reached the grounds outside the castle. It was a battlefield, and
the stench of blood was everywhere.
Actually, Wu Yu had a bit of his own agenda mixed into the
choice of location. He wanted to lag a little behind them. If he
could devour an immortal lord corpse, it would be of great help
to him. He needed to increase his strength.
"If we meet a danger beyond our means, please gather on me. I
can escape once or twice more," Wu Yu said.
Obviously, they thought that what he had just used was an
escape technique.
"Alright, much obliged." Xu Zidong nodded.
He had great faith in the technique Wu Yu had just used.
Therefore, he also started to value Wu Yu more.
"Little Sister, Wu Yu is under your care," Xu Zidong said.
"Sure." Yang Wenlan lifted Wu Yu up from behind. "Prepare
yourself, I move very quickly." She was just about to carry him
along.
Wu Yu said, "Big sister Yang, please put me down. I might be
able to keep up with you all."
"Quit exaggerating." Yang Wenlan did not believe him.
None of them believed him.
Wu Yu made an "after you" gesture, indicating they should go
ahead. They each rushed past, and Wu Yu followed them on
the Somersault Cloud. He was not far behind.
There were people both entering and exiting the city, but there
were fewer exiting.
It was obvious that those leaving did not have Immortal King
Tokens, and those who wished to try their luck often ignored
these people.
"You’re that fast?" They all looked at Wu Yu with surprise.
Wu Yu smiled mysteriously.
"Seems like our little brother is really something special." Qing
Yuli laughed heartily.
They proceeded at a ferocious pace. They blended in with their
environment and advanced quickly.
They were not very close to Mystical Resonance Immortal
City, so it would take some time to get there.
Wu Yu recalled that when he was coming to Benevolent
Immortal City, he had been ambushed and had escaped with the
Somersault Cloud.
The Sublime Gracious Sky was a harsh land.
The entire world looked rather barren.

There was much harsh killing energy in this world.

The immortal lords had laid ambushes here!
Vague sounds of fighting reached them.
The fighting was likely rather far - any nearer and the ground
would shake.
At first they proceeded smoothly.
Three days later, a group of people barred their way. Without a
word, they immediately attacked the Ancient Ink Camp.
"Kill them."
The group’s intentions were fairly obvious.
"Be careful!"
The numbers were more or less evenly matched, and they
descended into a rough fight.
Immortal lords fought completely with the power of their
realms. It was all very confusing for Wu Yu. He was instantly
piled up on by numerous worlds, and it was an uncomfortable
experience. The entire scene was chaos, and he could only use
Fulgurating Shadows to escape the battlefield.
Looking forward, he saw that the ground and mountains were
shaking. The Ancient Ink Camp people were engaged in a
heated battle, and it was hard to even make out who was friend
and foe. All around, the power of realms was exploding. No
wonder the Sublime Gracious Sky looked like a wreck. Even if
there were plants, the Great Void Immortal Path every 5,000
years would end them all.
Wu Yu could be of no help, and he could only hope that the
Ancient Ink Camp would emerge victorious.
From the looks of it, it seemed like a few of them were just
starting to get serious. Wu Yu reckoned that the Ancient Ink
Camp would win without too many problems, but some of them
might be snarled up and die in the fight.
It seemed like their adversaries were at the fourth tier of the
Immortal Lord Realm and above.
"A straggler?" Suddenly, a mean voice came from behind him.
Wu Yu turned to see a red-haired youth staring at him with dead
eyes. His entire body burned with ruby flames, and his killing
intent was dense.
He was with the group fighting the Ancient Ink Camp, but he
was not participating because he lacked the strength. He was
about a second tier Immortal Lord Realm cultivator!
"Even a Xuan immortal dares to come here?" He laughed
condescendingly.
"I don’t have an Immortal King Token. No point in gunning for
me." Wu Yu waved his hands.
The guy said, "I know you don’t. But you’re related to them.
I’m going to kidnap you! My father and the rest can use you as
a hostage!"
Wu Yu laughed. "I’m just a useless little disciple. What can you
threaten them with?"
"Then I’ll kill you!"
He did not let up, but came attacking.
Wu Yu had no choice, but he was not afraid of battle. For the
sake of the Great Void Immortal Path, he had become much
stronger. He had not even tested out his two greatest weapons
yet, the Floating Dreams Pagoda and the Floating Dreams
Sword.
This sneaky opponent was the perfect trial.
A 2-realm immortal lord.
Stronger even than the Tian Ming Dragon Lord.
But Wu Yu was not who he was back then.
Right now, he did not even use the Lawful Embodiment of
Heaven and Earth, or the Immortal Ape Transformation. He
was just in the guise of an ordinary immortal. And then, in his
hands, the Floating Dreams Pagoda and the Floating Dreams
Sword appeared!
These two destinable immortal treasures were extremely high-
grade. Even the slightly inferior Floating Dreams Sword was
already more powerful than Xu Zidong’s Towering Sky
Immortal City.
It went without saying that Wu Yu had already mastered the
Floating Dreams Pagoda.
Once a mysterious treasure he had stumbled upon in the Taigu
Immortal Path, he had now unlocked its full potential. He had
spent a lot of effort on this.
The red-haired immortal with an unknown name was very
cocky, seeing that Wu Yu was a Xuan immortal and companion
of the Ancient Ink Camp. He was preparing to strike and
quickly subdue Wu Yu.
Wu Yu could see that the Ancient Ink Camp was locked in a
battle of white-hot intensity. Everyone was fighting as hard as
they could for their lives!
Life and death hovered on a knife’s edge! Fortunately, the
Ancient Ink Camp people were familiar with each other and
synchronized well. They each played to their strengths and
created a battle formation which supported each other.
This way, they could easily set up opportunities for each other,
and also cover each other’s openings.
A battle formation was also a sort of immortal design. It was a
variation of a Heaven and Earth Spirit Design. When used in
battle, it needed no setting up. Each person’s understanding of
their role was the reason for its success.
Ordinarily, battle formations were less commonly used. The
fact that they could use it spoke of painstaking training and was
testament to their synergy as a fighting team.
Therefore, although the battle was fierce, Wu Yu could see that
they seemed to be in a good position not to lose anyone.
"Where are you looking?" The red-haired immortal saw that
Wu Yu was distracted and felt slighted.
"Ruby Fire Realm!"
Before Wu Yu, he activated his autonomous realm power. His
autonomous realm started to expand from within him,
shrouding Wu Yu. Angry flames started to consume the entire
world, and a world of fire came lancing towards him.
"Puny Xuan immortal, don’t you know how powerful we
Immortal Lord Realm cultivators are?" the red-haired immortal
guffawed. Using the power of a realm to crush a Xuan immortal
was truly overkill. No matter how much dao a Xuan immortal
had, they still would not be able to stand against the infinitely
superior power of a realm.
The Ruby Fire Realm connected with the Sublime Gracious
Sky, a smaller world that responded to a greater world.
Immortal qi came curling in, feeding the flames under the
exhortations of the red-haired immortal.
But from start to finish, Wu Yu’s face was stern and indifferent.
After devouring many immortals, he had many different
techniques and mystiques. But at this moment, he only wanted
to try out the Floating Dreams Sword and Pagoda, and see how
powerful they were.
As the Ruby Fire Realm came crashing down on him, Wu Yu
made his move.
"Time Warp Immortal Design!"
In his hand, the Floating Dreams Pagoda flew up above their
heads!
Wu Yu activated the Floating Dreams Pagoda, and suddenly
the area around the Floating Dreams Pagoda had time
scrambled.
For each breath of time that passed outside, some parts of this
world might have had two breaths of time pass. Others might
only see a tenth of a breath of time pass, while in other parts, a
full 10 breaths of time would have passed.
The Ruby Fire Realm blasted out at a fixed speed, but because
of the strange time warping in the field, some parts saw it speed
up crazily, while it moved at snail’s pace at others. This caused
the red-haired immortal’s entire Ruby Fire Realm to go topsy-
turvy.
"What the hell?!" His opponent was completely stumped at
such a power. He even suspected something glitchy was
happening!
He was supposed to squash Wu Yu, but this disruption had
thrown his entire Ruby Fire Realm into disarray.
Not only could he not attack Wu Yu, but the scrambling made
him unable to even control his own movements. He ended up
hurting himself.
Through all this, Wu Yu moved swiftly to his side, and the red-
haired immortal saw only a shadow.
Suddenly, his immortal spirit was shredded! Without a single
sign!
This was because Wu Yu had used the Floating Dreams
Sword’s Blink Slayer. It was fast, deadly, and accurate. In just
a split second, his immortal spirit had already been shredded.
He had not even been able to react.
By the time the thought occurred to him that Wu Yu might
attack, the red-haired immortal was already dead. His immortal
spirit had been cleaved into two by Wu Yu, and his core of the
Immortal Lord Realm, the immortal spirit world nucleus, had
also been cut into two by Wu Yu.
"Hnng.... How...." Until now, this guy still did not understand
what had happened. He died in a state of utter confusion.
As his consciousness faded, he saw that Wu Yu had shifted into
a ball of black mist that surrounded him....
Wu Yu was pleasantly surprised.
"These two destinable immortal treasures are far stronger than
I had hoped.
"Both the Time Warp and the Blink Slayer."
Because they had come from the same immortal, their synergy
led to even better results when used together.
The red-haired immortal had been killed in a flash.
Over at the Ancient Ink Camp’s side, the battle had not yet
ended. Wu Yu took the chance when no one was paying
attention to devour this red-haired immortal. He had not
devoured in a very long time, so his immortal spirit was already
back to fully-alert status. It was in Wu Yu’s human form, and
he was in full control too.
The Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast was Wu Yu’s greatest
pillar of support. If he were to surpass the Great Sage, Heaven’s
Equal’s legacy, he had to use it.
A 2-realm immortal lord was of great help to him.
This was his first time digesting an immortal spirit world
nucleus. He broke it down into pure energy. It would be of great
help when he entered the Immortal Lord Realm in the future.
At least through this process, he could visualize how it was
built.
At the same time, the dao of a 2-realm immortal lord was also
very useful for Wu Yu. This immortal lord had spent a long
time cultivating, and had not been trapped in the Dragon
Emperor’s Purgatory. Therefore, Wu Yu instantly learned that
this group of attackers did not even have a single Immortal
King Token. This made him a little disappointed. He had
thought the Ancient Ink Camp could win him an Immortal King
Token.
But actually, those who were outside the cities and hunting
others would not be likely to have an Immortal King Token.
After dealing with the red-haired immortal, Wu Yu was free
again.
This 2-realm immortal lord’s power allowed him to replenish
the immortal energy and buddha energy that he had been
starved for after the last improvement, and he even had
leftovers. Wu Yu transferred it to his 100,000 dopplegangers.
He used the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth and
turned into a half-cun being that hid himself far from the
battlefield, away from the others.

Using his Eyes of Fire and Gold to watch the battle, he saw that
the Ancient Ink Camp was gradually starting to come out
ahead. Through a brilliant maneuver, Xu Zidong’s huge
immortal city killed a 4-realm immortal lord!
His target had not even been facing him, but some dazzling
teamwork had allowed him to score a hit on Yun Mo’s
opponent.
The 4-realm immortal lord died, and Yun Mo hurried to help
the others in his group. The stalemate had been broken, and the
Ancient Ink Camp would definitely win in quick succession.
But Wu Yu’s eyes were locked on the 4-realm immortal lord.
He had just devoured, but he was not full up yet. It had been a
while since he had devoured, and the sensation lingered in Wu
Yu’s mind.
He immediately headed for the dead 4-realm immortal lord.
Everyone else was locked in battle, so no one paid attention to
him. He used Fulgurating Shadows and appeared by the 4-
realm immortal lord’s head, then he used Fulgurating Shadows
again to escape far away.
He had almost been pinned to the ground by the power of
someone’s realm.
These people were terrifyingly strong, and way above Wu Yu’s
current caliber. But he had already gotten what he wanted.
A 4-realm immortal lord was a huge transformation. He was
much stronger than the 2-realm immortal lord, and he also had
a Sumeru Pouch with many valuables that Wu Yu scooped up.
After devouring the 4-realm immortal lord, his immortal spirit
was almost completely transformed into the Heaven Devouring
Titanic Beast, held back by the Ruyi Jingu Bang. He knew he
was at his limit. If he continued devouring, he would be in
trouble. Next, he would have to keep a tight rein on himself.
This immortal spirit world nucleus was even more full, but Wu
Yu was unable to break it down for now, because the
overwhelming power inside might be too much for his current
cultivation level. Even with his army of dragons and elephants,
and his countless Bodhi Seeds, he might not be able to contain
the power of a 4-realm immortal lord.
After Wu Yu made free with his loot, the battle came to an end.
Seeing that one of theirs had fallen, and they were slowly losing
ground - they knew that they had hit a wall.
"Next time we meet you, you’re dead!" Their leader called for
them to flee, and they had probably not yet realized that the red-
haired immortal had fallen to Wu Yu.
Because the battle had caused a great commotion, there would
definitely be many people lying in wait and aiming for the
cleanup. Therefore, as the enemies retreated, Xu Zidong also
immediately called for them to flee!
Actually, both sides had noticed the 4-realm immortal lord’s
body. After all, he still had valuables on him. However, after a
cursory search, they could not find it, and assumed that the
other side had taken it.
Xu Zidong gave it up. Their lives were more important.
Wu Yu immediately caught up to them. They were fatigued,
but they still moved quickly in concealment. They streaked
swiftly towards Mystical Resonance Immortal City, the wind
whistling past them.
"Are you alright?" Yang Wenlan asked, seeing Wu Yu a little
flushed.
"I’m fine." Wu Yu gave a small smile.
"You’re such a good fighter, cowering in that chaotic battle to
save your life." Yun Mo’s scathing retort came from the left.
"Yun Mo, don’t forget who it was that allowed us to escape the
Green Lotus Immortal King’s clutches." Huang-Pu Yijun
admonished him.
Yun Mo waved it off and did not comment. He clearly felt that
when they were fleeing, Wu Yu was a burden.
However, they reached Mystical Resonance Immortal City in
the end, safe if shaken. Here, they found a well-concealed inn
and prepared not to come out again or expose themselves.
Wu Yu had gained a lot this time. He alone would definitely be
unable to defeat a 4-realm immortal lord, who was too far
above him in dao and cultivation level. This would now become
a huge boon for him.
In Mystical Resonance Immortal City, the Ancient Ink Camp
people finally found an inn, where they holed up and did not
leave.
All the immortals who had Immortal King Tokens would
basically do the same. But this might make them a target,
because it was too obvious that they had Immortal King
Tokens.
Therefore, it was still a roll of the dice.
After all, there were many others in similar situations.
It would not be easy to pass these 20 years in peace. They might
even have to constantly change bases.
Luckily, within the immortal city, others did not dare to snatch
too openly.
Wu Yu felt that there was no way he could get an Immortal
King Token, mainly because he was still too weak. If he could
only get stronger, the Immortal King Tokens would come all
too naturally to him.
Besides, he still had 20 years of time.
He retreated to the Floating Dreams Pagoda, where he had 100
times the time. He began to incorporate the dao of the 4-realm
immortal lord, along with his insights and experience, into a
new immortal dao mark.
A year outside was 100 years in the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
"The path of cultivation is getting more and more difficult. The
interactions between dao and life is also a huge area of
scholarship. Even with the knowledge of a 4-realm immortal
lord, I still need great amounts of time to improve."
With this, the great utility of the Floating Dreams Pagoda was
more apparent than ever.
Wu Yu began to patiently cultivate. He was completely
oblivious to everything happening outside.
The frightful power of the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast
allowed him to continuously absorb new daos and, along with
it, new understandings, perspectives, and experiences. He was
like a hole with no bottom. He could absorb everything.
He himself was far from that level, but the Heaven Devouring
Titanic Beast continued to bring him to new heights.
His current level of comprehension had surpassed that of many
Immortal Lord Realm cultivators, which was why he was
improving so rapidly.
All of this was thanks to the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor. If
not for him, Wu Yu’s real body and the Heaven Devouring
Titanic Beast would not have come together in such a union.
It could be said that he was no longer just the Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast. The Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast
was like the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord. It could not control
itself. And therefore, Wu Yu’s main body offered that crucial
piece of the puzzle.
He currently had five immortal dao marks.
With the understanding and experience of an Immortal Lord
Realm cultivator, immortal dao marks were just a matter of
time.
And he was in the Floating Dreams Pagoda, with plenty of time.
He continued to improve and train, reaching new levels of
enlightenment. He continued to cultivate his daos as smoothly
as a car sailing down a familiar road.
He spent 30 years consolidating his sixth dao, the Dao of Big
and Small. This was gleaned from his Lawful Embodiment of
Heaven and Earth mystique.
The Dao of Big and Small was very interesting. It was not just
about the physical shrinking and growing, but a transformation
of strength and systems that resonated profoundly. The
difference in a world’s size held many mysteries.
For example, a big world could house an immortal spirit and
form an autonomous realm.
Although Wu Yu had already consolidated the dao, he was still
new to the Dao of Big and Small. This world was arcane, and
he had a long way left to go.
In these 30 years, he was also contemplating the Dragon and
Elephant Prajna Buddha Body. This was easier to cultivate than
the Nine Xuan Dao Realm. In about 20 years, he had reached
the sixth tier, and in 80 years, he reached the seventh tier. All
he had to do was complete the eighth and ninth tiers, and his
Dragon and Elephant Prajna Buddha Body would be
thoroughly completed. At that time, he would have
innumerable dragons and elephants.
And after 100 years, he finally formed his seventh immortal
dao mark, the Dao of the Void.
Dao of the Void came from his Heaven Dao Mystique the
Somersault Cloud. The Dao of the Void was the most complex.
Wu Yu had gotten inspiration from the way the Floating
Dreams Sword cut through reality itself.
Tearing apart the fabric of reality, revealing the void that was
behind it. The Somersault Cloud traversed the void, and
allowed Wu Yu to reach this Dao of the Void more easily. Of
course, he too was just a beginner in this dao.
The void hid many mysteries. It was the antithesis of reality,
and also ratified its existence. Wu Yu believed that first there
was the void, and then reality came into existence. The void
was the basis, and reality but a tinge of color on top of it.
The void was mysterious and profound. It was devoid of
everything. Reality had everything, and variety in spades.
The Dao of the Void was a profound dao. When one mastered
it, one would be a god among immortals. This immortal dao
mark allowed Wu Yu to use the Somersault Cloud with even
more mastery. It was of great help to his Somersault Cloud’s
improvement.
He had divided up the 4-realm immortal lord’s immortal spirit
world nucleus. The rush of power filled his entire body, and his
Bodhi immortal energy and dragon and elephant buddha energy
continued to swell. He also used many Dao Deepening Pills to
make himself stronger. Both immortality arts had seen great
improvement. Wu Yu himself felt that while he was still a Xuan
immortal, his true power was probably equal to the immortal
lords on the Sublime Gracious Sky.
Although perhaps the lower level ones.
At this time, more than a year had passed, and Wu Yu went out
of the Floating Dreams Pagoda for some air.
He had not been in contact with Luo Pin for a year, so he
decided to send her an Immortal Message Talisman to ask after
her.
But just as he was about to send it out, he was stopped. It was
none other than Yun Mo, who laughed nastily. "Finally, I’ve
caught you red-handed! More than a year, and finally you can’t
help but betray us! You’re going to tell others about our
Immortal King Tokens, aren’t you! From the start, I knew you
were up to no good!"
Wu Yu started. To think that this guy was still breathing down
his neck!
Just as he finished his accusation, he hollered for Xu Zidong
and the others to come over. All nine appeared before Wu Yu.
They looked perplexed, unsure of what was going on.
Yun Mo said, "Brothers and sister, I told you that this Wu Yu
was unknown to us. Even if he were from the Great Ancient
Ink Realm, he might be out to get us. Today, I’ve finally found
the proof. While you all were cultivating, he was just about to
send this Immortal Message Talisman. I caught him in the act!"
Yun Mo crowed, especially conceited. He handed the Immortal
Message Talisman to Xu Zidong.
They were all shocked, and looked at Wu Yu’s unreadable
expression. However, Xu Zidong was rather level-headed. He
opened the Immortal Message Talisman and read it, and then
burst into lusty laughter.
Yun Mo was stunned.
"Come, read it, all of you." Xu Zidong passed it to Qin Chuan,
who also started to laugh. He passed it down, and all of them
looked at Wu Yu differently now.
Xu Zidong chuckled. "Truly more than meets the eye. You even
have a beauty in your heart. I envy you, I envy you indeed! Old
Xu here is always with these guys. What a pity!"
Yang Wenlan finished reading it and joined in the laughter.
And then she looked crossly at Xu Zidong. "Hey, Boss, what
are you saying?! Aren’t I a beautiful, nubile immortal right here
before your eyes?"
"Psshh, you’re half a granny yourself." Qing Yuli snorted.
They were all very relaxed after reading it, and Yun Mo’s face
had gone stiff. He was the last one to receive the Immortal
Message Talisman, and saw that it read: I’ve not contacted you
for a while, and I miss you. In the swirling clouds of Qin Yin
Peak, I remember that we....

And then the many things that they did.

It was a love letter.
"How is this possible!?" Yun Mo had been so sure that Wu Yu
was up to no good, which was why he had sounded the alarm
without even reading it. How could this be!?
And now the one being humiliated was him.
"Senior Yun Mo seems to have misunderstood me. But I did
bring everyone out the last time, and I think I proved myself.
To think that Senior Yun Mo is still suspicious of me - it’s
hurtful." Wu Yu retrieved the Immortal Message Talisman and
then sent it out.
Actually, if Yun Mo kept this up, Wu Yu would also start to
chafe, no matter how endless his patience was.
Xu Zidong said soberly, "Yun Mo, stop attacking Wu Yu. The
eight of us believe in Wu Yu. Your doubt in him means you
doubt us as well. It is meaningless. What we need now is unity,
not mutual suspicion and enmity. We of the Ancient Ink Camp
have always dealt in good faith, convincing others with our
morals. You were the last to enter, but you should have
understood this by now."
Qin Chuan said, "Think on it well."
Yun Mo’s face was black as a storm cloud, and his anger
showed. "I was just worried for everyone’s safety, even the
smallest things...."
Yang Wenlan said, "Alright, alright. Everyone knows to take
safety seriously. No one here is a fool. We all know how to read
people. Your heart is in the right place, but Wu Yu has already
proved himself and helped us before."
They knew that Wu Yu would not betray them. They could tell
from the look in his eyes and the way he conducted himself that
he would not deceive them.
"Alright." Yun Mo still did not seem convinced. Especially
after this incident, everyone seemed to favor Wu Yu, and this
made him even more grumpy.
Xu Zidong looked at Wu Yu and said, "Seems like you’ve
improved in a year of cultivation?"
Wu Yu nodded. "A little."
"Not bad at all, to see improvement so quickly. I vaguely recall
you beating a 2-realm immortal lord, and very swiftly as well.
I believe you can take on stronger opponents now, am I right?"
Wu Yu started. He did not think that he had been seen. But it
did not matter, because the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast’s
devouring was not something that others would understand.
And in the frenzy of battle, he probably had not seen clearly.
After all, the slightest drop in focus might have cost him his
own life.
Wu Yu nodded. "Indeed, I have become a little stronger. But
that does not count for much here in Sublime Gracious Sky.
Basically everyone is stronger than I am."
Xu Zidong said, "To be able to fight above one’s level in the
sky palaces speaks of superb talent. Looks like your potential
is far beyond what we thought. The fact that such a genius like
you came from the Great Ancient Ink Realm is a blessing
indeed. As your seniors, it is our duty to protect you while you
grow strong."
So he had appraised him so highly through his observations....
"Boss, are you serious?" The others were not so sure about Wu
Yu’s strength. However, Wu Yu’s escape techniques and his
travel speed indeed proved a lot.
Although he looked like he was a Xuan immortal, he was
indeed strong.
His cultivation level was at Xuan immortal level, but his
strength was not.
"I heard that there are some treasures which can hide one’s
cultivation level. Wu Yu, do you have something like that?"Qin
Chuan asked.
Wu Yu nodded. "I will not hide the fact that I do. But I am still
a little ways away from the Immortal Lord Realm."
He did not dare to say that he was a 7-xuan immortal. That way,
they would assume he was a 9-xuan immortal.
"That’s already fairly terrifying," Wu Xiao said.
Yun Mo could not resist. "You must be bragging. How about a
match, so we can see for ourselves?"
He didn’t believe Wu Yu could defeat a 2-realm immortal lord.
Perhaps Xu Zidong had mistaken someone as him.
Furthermore, it wasn’t just him that had doubts about Wu Yu’s
strength.
After all, only descendants of those elite immortals would be
able to fight someone above their cultivation level.
Over the recent days, Yun Mo had been bearing a grudge. It
was especially gratifying when he thought he had something he
could use against Wu Yu. However, he ended up receiving a
lecture.
Before Wu Yu showed up, he had always been the receiver of
care and concern in the team. However, because of the strange
Wu Yu, he was now chided by his seniors.
From the beginning, his intuition was telling him Wu Yu wasn’t
simple.
Yet no one was willing to back him up on this.
This made him feel extremely indignant, and a grudge had been
brewing in him.
Seeing his eight seniors joking and chatting with Wu Yu,
coupled with his short-tempered personality, he couldn’t hold
back and asked for a match.
All of this was to vent his frustration and induce fear and
respect into Wu Yu as he felt that Wu Yu had not been showing
respect to him.
He was a junior and yet didn’t show any deference!
"This man might very well be targeting my Immortal King
Token!"
Yun Mo even thought about this. Otherwise, Wu Yu wouldn’t
be showing respect to all the others but not him.
When he asked for a match, the team was stumped.
Yang Wenlan interjected in a hurry and said, "Let’s not go to
that extent, or we will harm the harmony of the group."
Since he had spoken, Yun Mo definitely wouldn’t back off. He
said, "Big Sister Yang, are you afraid I will injure him? No
worries. I know my limits myself."
The burly Jin Kaiwen remarked, "I don’t think it’s appropriate.
There’s nothing interesting about watching someone older
bullying the young."
To him, it was clear that Yun Mo didn’t know his mistakes and
even wanted to suppress Wu Yu to prove his authority. This
was action born from a fit of anger.
Yun Mo always had a bad temper. It was just that it became
even more apparent with the appearance of Wu Yu.
Ye Yi and the rest also didn’t feel that this was necessary. They
knew Yun Mo just wanted to teach Wu Yu a lesson.
Xu Zidong smiled and said abruptly, "That’s great. There’s
nothing bad about it. We are all brothers, and a sparring match
couldn’t be more ordinary. We have yet to see Wu Yu’s true
strength as well. You guys might doubt my appraisal that he’s
a genius. You guys will know better after this match."
"In that case, let’s go with it. However, do it in Big Brother’s
Towering Sky Immortal City so we won’t cause a huge
commotion," Qin Chuan added.
Wu Yu believed Qin Chuan might not be too fond of Yun Mo.
Therefore, his tone wasn’t courteous when he spoke those
words.
With Yun Mo targeting Wu Yu on multiple occasions, those
elder brothers and sister were getting a little annoyed.
Since they had spoken and Yun Mo was constantly targeting
him, Wu Yu wouldn’t reject the request. Furthermore, he had
just made huge improvements and wanted to find someone to
practice on. This was like having an opponent sent to him!
Furthermore, even if he lost, he wouldn’t be embarrassed.
Truth be told, Wu Yu found this man’s attitude deplorable.
People like him should be taught a lesson.
Wu Yu answered, "Since everyone is interested, I would like to
seek guidance from Senior Yun Mo. I would hope Senior Yun
Mo will show mercy to me."
Yun Mo had not expected Wu Yu to agree to it. This was
exactly what he wanted! Since the beginning, he had always
felt like Wu Yu was against him. Therefore, he smiled and said,
"Relax. With our brothers and sister protecting you, I won’t be
able to harm you."
These words were extremely sarcastic.
Xu Zidong was the most interested in Wu Yu’s strength.
Without further ado, he took out his destinable immortal
treasure, the Towering Sky Immortal City, placed it before
everyone, and gestured to Wu Yu and Yun Mo to enter.
The Towering Sky Immortal City was a city immortal treasure
forged as a destinable immortal treasure. Everything was
similar to before. When Wu Yu entered the realm of the
Towering Sky Immortal City, it felt just like entering an
immortal city. Although it wasn’t particularly huge, it was
sufficient for a battle.
Yun Mo entered without hesitation, and both of them showed
up within the Towering Sky Immortal City. As for the
remaining eight people, they crowded at the four corners while
watching the two miniscule people fighting.
"Boss, why would you agree to this? Yun Mo definitely won’t
show mercy." Yang Wenlan was still a little worried.
Xu Zidong answered, "Just watch. Since Wu Yu dared to come
to the Sublime Gracious Sky, I refuse to believe his target isn’t
an Immortal King Token."
"How can that be? He’s still a xuan immortal."
"He’s capable and reckless. It’s normal for him to wish to
wander the world. Moreover, the Great Void Immortal Path is
indeed a great opportunity for trials. Therefore, he wishes to
join us and move around with us. In a way, this is a trial for him
to temper himself and is probably his objective." Xu Zidong
shared his conjecture.
"He must be really reckless, then!"
Xu Zidong said, "Therefore, my guess is that he is pretty strong.
The previous time, I saw his destinable immortal treasures. He
has two types, but they are clearly from the same immortal. A
sword and a tower, and both treasures are of extremely high
grade. The sword is slightly inferior but is still better than my
Towering Sky Immortal City. Moreover, he has multiple
abilities to keep himself safe. What does this mean?"
Qin Chuan said, "I understand. This means that he’s probably
a lineal disciple of a certain immortal king and even more
fortunate than us."
It was then that the rest understood.
"Obviously, it could also be that he has inherited the legacy of
a certain elite existence. Regardless, if this is true, his future is
still limitless. We shouldn’t harbor thoughts of harming others.
We have been in the sky palaces for a long time and know that
certain things just don’t belong to us, so we shouldn’t try to
force our way. Otherwise, we might draw more than just life
endangering experiences to ourselves. Wu Yu is a pretty nice
person. If we can become brothers or friends, that would be
best. And I’m pretty fond of him. He’s calm, has a good temper,
and is patient." Xu Zidong continued speaking for some time.
"But we don’t have an additional Immortal King Token for
him," Qing Yuli said.
Xu Zidong smiled and said, "That will be dependent on him. It
is too hard to find an Immortal King Token. I believe he won’t
stick around for long - he will head out to search for an
Immortal King Token himself. When the time comes, let’s help
when we are able to."
Yang Wenlan shook her head helplessly and said, "That’s
easier said than done. We might not even be able to protect our
own Immortal King Tokens."
"Therefore, let’s see what his plans are," said Xu Zidong.
"Wu Yu is pretty good, but Yun Mo is a little too ignorant and
lacks discipline. He has been with us for so long and yet hasn’t
changed at all. With his temper, it is only a matter of time
before he will suffer," Qin Chuan commented.
When he spoke of Yun Mo, the rest shook their heads. It was
alright in the past. However, his mental state hadn’t steady after
arriving in the Sublime Gracious Sky. Their team wasn’t that
strong, but they had nine Immortal King Tokens. One could
only say they were very lucky.
At this point, the battle had broken out in the Towering Sky
Immortal City.
Yun Mo had his Realm of Ink Clouds circling him and had also
summoned his destinable immortal treasure, the 900 Swords of
Cloud Immortal. With the power of his realm, he controlled 900
white blades dancing around him.
As the Realm of Ink Clouds extended, gloomy clouds engulfed
the swords instantly! This was the complete opposite from Wu
Yu’s Somersault Cloud!
Tumultuous clouds filled the city with black lightning blitzing
in between like poisonous snakes. It was hard to determine if
they were real. What was more frightening was that he had
hidden his 900 swords within the Realm of Ink Clouds.
All of a sudden, murderous intent surged forth.

Yun Mo scoffed, "Don’t assume I’m not aware of your motives.

They can’t see through you, but I can! You are eyeing our
Immortal King Tokens, and I’ll make you pay the price
eventually. For today, I’ll be collecting some interest first!"
"Senior Yun Mo, you have misunderstood me. This isn’t
necessary." Wu Yu was helpless. However, since the other
party wanted him dead, he had never been afraid of anyone in
a battle.
First, he used the Immortal Ape Transformation, which greatly
enhanced his physical strength, and followed that up with the
Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth. Within the
Towering Sky Immortal City, he became a colossal, golden
immortal ape!
In his hands were the Floating Dreams Sword and the Floating
Dreams Pagoda.
Although the Realm of Ink Clouds’ power was still
humongous, that person was no different from an ant before
Wu Yu.
"What is this ability?"
"His physical body has undergone a dreadful strengthening."
Outside the city, the eight of them exchanged glances and
started to believe what Xu Zidong had said. Wu Yu had indeed
inherited an elite legacy. Otherwise, even his Heaven Dao
Mystique wouldn’t be so mystical.
They also saw Wu Yu’s destinable immortal treasures and were
shocked by them.
"Tsk!"
Yun Mo controlled the power of the realm to bring endless
tumultuous clouds onto Wu Yu. At the same instant, the 900
Swords of Cloud Immortal carried intense lightning bolts
within the Realm of Ink Clouds to overwhelm Wu Yu!
"Break!"
He wanted to deal Wu Yu severe injuries at once!
After all, he knew Xu Zidong would definitely save Wu Yu, so
he wouldn’t hold back at all!
He wanted Wu Yu to experience true fear!
Wu Yu’s eyes were blood-red.
Time warp!
When the Floating Dreams Pagoda was used, the surrounding
world was plunged into time disarray. Everything within the
Realm of Ink Clouds became distorted, including the swords
and the lightning. It was as though the entire realm had broken
off from Yun Mo’s control, distorted and on the brink of
shattering. For Wu Yu, an attack like this would be filled with
endless openings!
Whoosh!
Using Fulgurating Shadows, Wu Yu appeared behind Yun Mo.
"Meteoric Mirror!"
This was a higher tier of the Eyes of Fire and Gold. All of a
sudden, Wu Yu’s eyes turned into flaming mirrors. As the
image was cast, two gigantic mirrors blazing in flames formed
in front of Yun Mo.
Ting, ting, ting!
Countless hexagonal flaming mirrors joined together to create
a giant sphere to trap Yun Mo.
Yun Mo was still reeling in shock from the distortions of time
when countless golden mirrors entrapped him. Flames
flickered, and all of a sudden, all the mirrors exploded.
Countless pieces of golden shrapnel rained down while the
golden flames devoured Yun Mo!
Yun Mo resisted stubbornly with his Realm of Ink Clouds.
However, under the distortion of time, there were still
numerous openings. As the power of Meteoric Mirror swept
violently across, numerous lacerations tore his body!
"Great Fissure Qian Kun Design!"
At this moment, Wu Yu showed up in the air. Where his sword
ripped through, the space shattered. Just as the opening was
about to reach Yun Mo’s head and was about to split him into
two halves, Wu Yu stopped abruptly.
The battle had ended. Yun Mo froze and his body was covered
in wounds and cold sweat. Beyond the Towering Sky Immortal
City, the eight of them exchanged glances and could see the
surprise and amazement in one another’s faces.
It wasn’t easy for Wu Yu to defeat Yun Mo, and he had
basically utilized everything in his arsenal.
Even so, the eight others from the Ancient Ink Camp were
stumped and reeling in shock to see Wu Yu defeating Yun Mo
decisively and sparing his life in the end.
Initially, they had only wanted to gauge Wu Yu’s strength and
therefore reminded Yun Mo to not be too harsh. They just
wanted to sound Wu Yu out.
Not once had they ever thought Yun Mo would be defeated.
This was completely out of their expectations.
Therefore, they were staring at one another and were looking at
Wu Yu in a different light.
Without having to exchange words, their thoughts were
definitely similar.
Xu Zidong got them out of the Towering Sky Immortal City
immediately. He squeezed a smile, patted Wu Yu’s shoulder,
and complimented, "Impressive. I did feel that you had made
some progress, but I had not expected it to be this extent. Even
Yun Mo isn’t a match for you now. With your current strength,
you are more than strong enough to join our team and battle
together with us.”
Yang Wenlan smiled and said, "This kid was acting innocent
while preying on the tiger. He even walloped Yun Mo so hard
that he couldn’t react. Haha...."
The group burst into laughter, but they didn’t realize that Yun
Mo’s face was contorting. Each word and sentence was like
lashing him with a burning whip.
"If only we had an additional Immortal King Token, it would
be great. Wu Yu could join us in the Great Void Immortal Path
and our overall strength would be even higher. I underestimated
you previously," Qin Chuan commented.
The eight of them acted as though they had found a treasure.
They surrounded Wu Yu and showered him with praise and
compliments.
"Rather than your strength, I’m more fond of your personality.
Humble, composed, thoughtful, and sincere. Moreover, you
aren’t overly compassionate in battle," Xu Zidong said
solemnly.
"Thank you, Boss, for your compliments."
This challenge wasn’t initiated by Wu Yu and therefore
wouldn’t mean much. At the very most, they now had a good
assessment of Wu Yu’s current strength.
He had consolidated his strength at the equivalent of a 7-xuan
immortal. With his various mystiques to enhance him, he had
defeated a 4-realm immortal lord. However, even so, his
strength was among the lowest throughout the entire Sublime
Gracious Sky.
Therefore, Wu Yu still wasn’t going to be arrogant or restless.
The lack of an Immortal King Token was indeed an issue. Now
that he finally had some capital, Wu Yu had wanted to tell them
he would like to head out alone to search for an Immortal King
Token.
"If you guys are so fond of him, just let him have my Immortal
King Token, then!" Yun Mo scoffed. He was recuperating
previously and had just stood up. After he spoke, he headed for
the exit of the inn.
"Get back here!" Xu Zidong shouted.
However, Yun Mo didn’t turn around. He left and vanished
before the eyes of the team.
"That kid is getting more and more disrespectful to his seniors.
I have long said that he has a bad personality and doesn’t fit in
well with us," said Qin Chuan.
Xu Zidong shook his head. "Compared to us, he’s still too
young. Let his emotions subside before we explain things to
him again."
Jin Kaiwen said, "We have been together for thousands of
years. Although he might be stubborn at times, he isn’t too bad
a person...."
Qin Chuan wasn’t fond of him, but the rest still saw Yun Mo as
a brother. They had developed a relationship and therefore
wouldn’t want to chase him away.
However, Qin Chuan didn’t stop. "He probably sees this as
great shame and won’t return easily."
Yang Wenlan said, "You have overestimated him. The
Immortal King Tokens are still with our boss. If he wants to
enter the Great Void Immortal Path, do you think he won’t be
back?"
"You are right."
They were just seeing Yun Mo as a rebellious younger brother
and therefore didn’t stay on this topic. Furthermore, they were
more curious about Wu Yu currently.
Compared to Yun Mo, Wu Yu was clearly more outstanding in
all aspects.
Wu Yu pondered and concluded that he still had time. He
decided to consolidate further and to perfect his mastery before
heading out to search for an Immortal King Token.
After all, if he was targeted by the assassin from the Immortal
Slayer Palace again, it would still be cumbersome.
Who knew if the other party would send stronger assassins?
At this place, Xu Zidong was a 7-realm immortal lord and the
rest were largely 6-realm immortal lords. They also had the
money to reside in the relatively safe inn. Therefore, nothing
had happened to them.
However, as time passed, Xu Zidong and the rest were getting
a little restless.
"Why isn’t Yun Mo back?"
"Could it be that he encountered a mishap when he was
outside?"
"He can’t be foolish enough to leave Mystical Resonance
Immortal City, right?"
"That’s hard to say."
"Within Mystical Resonance Immortal City, he should know
that he has to be cautious. However, he’s relatively weak, and
if anyone were to ambush him, that would be...."
Xu Zidong was a little remorseful. "It’s all my fault. I haven’t
considered his emotions well! You guys remain here. I’ll go
look for him."
Wu Xiao, Huang-Pu Yijun, and others also expressed that they
wanted to go with Xu Zidong.
All of a sudden, Yun Mo entered the inn. Wearing a cold smirk
on his face, he said, "You guys don’t have to look for me. I’m
fine and I’m here to settle our matters."
He looked extremely gloomy and resembled a villain who had
just gotten his way. Wu Yu immediately realized that things
were bad.
Clearly, Xu Zidong and others had underestimated Yun Mo’s
vengeful personality. Qin Chuan had a keen eye, and Yun Mo
was indeed different from the rest of the team.
"What do you mean?" Yang Wenlan couldn’t understand. "You
are looking to settle matters with us? It was just a typical
sparring match. How can a man be so narrow-minded? Haven’t
we been through numerous dangers together over the past few
thousand years you have been with us? Have you forgotten the
joyous times? You are looking to settle matters with us? Did I
hear you wrongly?"
The rest were equally shocked. How narrow-minded would one
be to have made such comments.
"Haha! Stop pretending in front of me. I’m disgusted at the
sight of you guys. Aren’t you guys preparing to give my
Immortal King Token to Wu Yu? Great! No one shall enter the
Great Void Immortal Path, then!" Yun Mo laughed loudly.
At this point, an old man in a green robe appeared behind him.
That green-robed old man was indifferent, had a head of silver
hair, and looked extremely dangerous.
There was also a group of people behind him that followed him
into the inn. Clearly, they were brought here by Yun Mo.
"Green Lotus Immortal King!"
Xu Zidong and the rest gasped in horror!
Yun Mo had brought the Green Lotus Immortal King and his
disciples into this place! Now all of them were exposed before
the Green Lotus Immortal King.

Yun Mo smiled and said, "Hand over all your Immortal King
Tokens! Let’s see who dares to make fun of me now!"
However, who had ever done so?
To put it simply, Wu Yu also found this guy problematic. Along
the journey, he had always targeted him. Subsequently, he
initiated a challenge but was defeated. In the end, he had even
resorted to such means. What a traitor!
Xu Zidong was fuming. "I never expected you to be an
ungrateful man. If I knew about this earlier, I wouldn’t have
saved you from danger in the past."
Yun Mo laughed. "You just wanted to form a group and have
more helpers. Are you trying to move me with compassion
now?"
Yang Wenlan berated, "You are wrong! When we are together,
we are close like real brothers. In these boundless sky palaces,
we help one another and advance and retreat together!
However, we have indeed made a mistake in allowing you to
join us. You are a vicious person at heart and see things with a
tinge of evil. It’s only natural that you would commit such
despicable acts!"
All eight of them were furious and felt betrayed. Moreover, it
was their youngest brother who had done so. On a typical day,
they would help one another out. It was beyond their
imagination that he would become so ungrateful just because
he had suffered a little grievance!
"Alright, stop your babbling and hand over the nine Immortal
King Tokens. We can spare you guys if you do so!" The Green
Lotus Immortal King was standing before the Qing’E Immortal
Lord and others, stroking his long beard.
Yun Mo chuckled, "Immortal King, please don’t forget to leave
an Immortal King Token for me." This was probably the
condition Yun Mo had.
"Haha...." The Green Lotus Immortal King was right next to
him. He grinned and pressed down on Yun Mo’s head out of
the blue. Blood burst out from the seven apertures of Yun Mo’s
head as he lost his life instantly with his eyes still wide open.
Even till death, he probably had not expected the Green Lotus
Immortal King to act like this and kill him.
"Yun Mo!" The rest of the Ancient Ink Camp was surprised
once again. The younger brother that had fought with them for
thousands of years was now dead!
The Green Lotus Immortal King laughed grimly, "I’m sorry. I
hate traitors the most and therefore finished him off for you
guys. Isn’t that gratifying?"
The Green Lotus Immortal King and the disciples behind him
burst into laughter.
Soon, the Green Lotus Immortal King put his smile away and
ordered solemnly, "He’s a good example. All I’m asking for are
the Immortal King Tokens. If you guys aren’t going to hand
them over, you will see the same outcome. Rest assured, I
won’t cause a commotion in Mystical Resonance Immortal
City when killing you guys. The Mystical Resonance Immortal
Emperor doesn’t have his eye on me."
The Great Void Immortal Realm was far above the Immortal
Lord Realm. Killing Yun Mo was easy, and killing Wu Yu and
the rest would be equally so!
Looking at the corpse of Yun Mo, Xu Zidong and the rest were
stumped. Nonetheless, a seemingly pitiful person would
definitely have had a deplorable side.
Now wasn’t the time to think about what Yun Mo had done or
what had happened to him. If they didn’t hand over the
Immortal King Tokens, everyone would definitely lose their
lives.
"Struggle to the death? Cause a commotion?" Qin Chuan asked
Xu Zidong in the dark.
Xu Zidong answered, "No. Although that might stop them from
getting the Immortal King Tokens and might get them noticed
by the Mystical Resonance Immortal Emperor, we would
definitely die!"
"We worked so hard to get these Immortal King Tokens. Are
we going to let them gain from our labor so easily?" Qin Chuan
wasn’t willing to just resign!
"We would still have our lives intact!"
After all, they were facing a Great Void Immortal Realm
expert!
This was the most critical moment. The patience of the Green
Lotus Immortal King was wearing thin. If they didn’t hand
them over soon, he would likely make a move.
"Don’t make me wait too long," said the green-robed old man
with a smile.
The Qing’E Immortal Lord chimed in. "Just resign yourselves
to your fate. You guys are too weak, these shouldn’t have
belonged to you guys from the beginning. Why would you want
to lose your lives over the Immortal King Tokens?"
All of them were laughing.
They didn’t make a move to snatch the tokens immediately, as
they were probably afraid that Wu Yu and the rest would
struggle to their deaths and kick up a ruckus. If that happened,
everyone would perish together.
Obviously, they also believed Xu Zidong and the rest wouldn’t
be so foolish.
"Immortal king, please let us have 30 breaths of time to
discuss." Xu Zidong bowed as he requested for this small
leeway.
"Make them count." Having killed Yun Mo to establish his
authority, he had made known to all that killing Xu Zidong and
the rest would be equally easy. Therefore, he saw the outcome
as cast in stone.
As an immortal king, it was easy to get Immortal King Tokens
for his disciples.
The team gathered in a circle swiftly. Pulling a long face, Xu
Zidong said, "We can fight for the Immortal King Tokens again
in 5,000 years. After all, we have yet to become 9-realm
immortal lords. We don’t have to risk our lives for this."
"Yeah. Although lady luck shone brightly on us and we were
able to gather sufficient Immortal King Tokens this time, but
we do not have the strength to protect them. Losing them
wouldn’t be strange," said Qing Yuli helplessly.
Ye Yi gritted his teeth and was feeling a little indignant.
However, he didn’t express his opinion. The death of Yun Mo
was a huge blow to them. Now they could only resign
themselves to their fate.
Wu Yu stood at the side, pondering and weighing his options.
Eventually, he gnashed his teeth and said, "Everyone, this
incident started because of me. Without me, Yun Mo wouldn’t
have left. I have a risky plan and wonder if you guys are willing
to give it a try with me. If we are successful, we will be able to
keep our Immortal King Tokens."
"You have a plan? He’s an immortal king!" The team spoke
quickly as they could feel the Green Lotus Immortal King
losing his patience.
Wu Yu answered, "It’s worth a try." The team was astounded.
They knew Wu Yu wasn’t a reckless person. However, if they
agreed to Wu Yu’s suggestion, they would be leaving their lives
into the hands of Wu Yu. That would definitely be hair-raising!
Wu Yu naturally found it hard to accept the fact that the nine
Immortal King Tokens would end up benefiting the other party
like this!
Therefore, even if he had to die, he wanted to give it a try!
Worst case scenario, he could bring up the Primordial Immortal
Empire’s dragon king from the Immortal Dragon Imperial
Realm to protect himself from harm.
With his personality, getting him to hand over a treasure that
was his was extremely difficult.
Nonetheless, the key was still if Xu Zidong and the rest had the
gusto to believe in him.
Moreover, they wouldn’t have much time to hesitate!
Xu Zidong’s eyes met with Wu Yu’s eyes.
From Wu Yu’s eyes, he could see a strong belief.
This gave him an intuition that prompted him to disregard all
other opinions, and he said, "Alright, let’s do it!"
Receiving permission, Wu Yu was overjoyed. The 30 breaths
of time were almost up. He said, "When I count to three,
everyone will enter my Floating Dreams Pagoda. I have a way
to get everyone out of this place!"
"Alright!"
"Time is running up. Live or to die, what do you guys choose?"
At the door, the Qing’E Immortal Lord could wait no longer.
Initially, they had only needed three tokens. However, now that
they had an immortal king with them, they would definitely
want to take all the tokens away. Those additional tokens could
be given to others as gifts.
"Three!"
Just as he was speaking, Wu Yu had counted to three. Wu Yu
activated the Floating Dreams Pagoda abruptly to let the eight
others enter instantly. It was truly daring for a xuan immortal
to do this before an immortal king!
"Everyone, don’t panic. The Immortal King Tokens are with
me. I’ll hand them over!" Wu Yu remarked in a hurry upon
seeing the surprised faces of the Green Lotus Immortal King
and others, who were preparing to strike.
He’s just a xuan immortal and wasn’t seen as a threat at all.
Moreover, the other party couldn’t tell what tricks Wu Yu had.
Therefore, they were astounded for a moment. However, at the
thought that Xu Zidong and the rest had hidden themselves in
the immortal treasure, they felt like something was amiss.
The Green Lotus Immortal King wasn’t stopping. Wu Yu knew
that he had a power known as the heavenly rule and that it was
dreadful!
While Wu Yu was speaking, he had completed his preparations.
He immediately used his Heaven Dao Mystique.
The Green Lotus Immortal King wouldn’t have believed Xu
Zidong and the rest would have the guts to court their own
doom. Therefore, he had hesitated for a moment.
"Unshackled Doppelganger!"
Out of the blue, Wu Yu used his Unshackled Doppelganger.
This time, he was crazy enough to create 100,000
doppelgangers at the same time! With 100,000 doppelgangers
appearing at the same time, it wasn’t just the courtyard that was
filled. Xu Zidong had removed the immortal design that was
surrounding the courtyard. Therefore, Wu Yu’s doppelgangers
piled up and out of the inn following an explosion-like boom!
Looking from afar, one could see the inn completely filled with
Wu Yu’s 100,000 dopplegangers.
"Go!"
With 100,000 doppelgangers as cover, Wu Yu fled on his
Somersault Cloud immediately!
The 100,000 doppelgangers separated him from the Green
Lotus Immortal King. At this juncture, the Green Lotus
Immortal King had never expected a xuan immortal to have
such a strange ability. He didn’t react at the first instant!
More importantly, this was a huge commotion!
The first thought that went through the mind of the Green Lotus
Immortal King wasn’t pursuing Wu Yu, but to flee!
Otherwise, if the Mystical Resonance Immortal Emperor were
to target him, even he would die!
"He’s crazy!"
This was the only word that came into his mind. Even the Green
Lotus Immortal King was afraid at this juncture. This was
because in each iteration, there would always be immortal
kings kicking up a ruckus in the nine immortal cities.
Wu Yu’s actions weren’t huge and he didn’t destroy anything.
It was just that the sudden appearance of the 100,000
doppelgangers was a sight to behold.
The Green Lotus Immortal King could only choose to escape
after seeing this. If he had tried to intercept, Wu Yu might not
have been able to flee on his Somersault Cloud.
"You guys are all dead!" The Green Lotus Immortal King
couldn’t understand why Wu Yu would rather choose to
struggle to the death. They wouldn’t have to go to that extent.
He could also see that Xu Zidong and the rest were about to
give up.
Before Wu Yu made his move, they had not even noticed Wu
Yu’s presence.
In the eyes of the Green Lotus Immortal King, they were no
different from dead. The shame was that his disciples didn’t
flee as quickly as he could and might be dead for sure.
"He’s crazy!" That was the only reason the Green Lotus
Immortal King could come up with. He could sense that the
Mystical Resonance Immortal Emperor was definitely going to
arrive soon. That was a threat of death. He was camouflaging
and concealing himself with all he had!
During this time, Wu Yu landed in a sufficiently far place with
the Somersault Cloud.

However, he knew that even with the Somersault Cloud’s

ability to move within void space, it would still be hard to hide
from an immortal emperor! Therefore, when he showed up at a
different place, he used the Replicate ability of the Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast and took the form of the 4-realm
immortal lord he had devoured before, then he mixed into the
crowd swiftly.
This was Wu Yu’s ultimate trick. The eternal immortal emperor
was unimaginably powerful. Even if he had used the
Somersault Cloud, he might still be exposed. However, Wu Yu
had absolute faith in Replicate. With Replicate, he was no
different from that immortal lord and showed no signs that he
was Wu Yu.
Although he was a long distance away, his doppelgangers were
still around. At this point, he revoked all his doppelgangers and
reduced everything to dust. At the last moment, his
doppelgangers could all feel the danger of death. He had also
seen that the Qing’E Immortal Lord and the others, who had
yet to react to the situation, were now exposed before the
eternal immortal emperor.
The only uncertainty was if the Green Lotus Immortal King
could escape in time.
Wu Yu was really anxious. He was playing with fire. Over the
next period, he was like an ant on a hot pan. He tried his best to
stay within the crowd of immortal lords while maintaining an
ordinary pose. There were several hundred millions of
immortal lords in Mystical Resonance Immortal City, and he
had changed himself completely. He believed the Mystical
Resonance Immortal Emperor shouldn’t be able to find him.
This bet was indeed perilous. However, if he could protect the
Immortal King Tokens, he would have a share since Yun Mo
was dead. In a way, he was pursuing rewards in heightened
risks.
Time passed by gradually.
Three days later, he heard news that people from the Green
Lotus Sky had been killed by the Mystical Resonance Immortal
Emperor. Their corpses were displayed in a certain location of
the city. Wu Yu asked around and learned that the Green Lotus
Immortal King wasn’t one of them. It seemed like the eternal
immortal emperor wasn’t particularly harsh. Perhaps he had
seen the Green Lotus Immortal King. Someone like the Green
Lotus Immortal King was still a talent of the sky palaces. For
him to deserve a capital punishment, it would probably require
a larger commotion.
However, the effect of punishing a small group as an example
to the rest was apparent. When the news spread in Mystical
Resonance Immortal City, everyone was on their toes. Many
people who were thinking of taking the risk ended up hiding
away.
This was also what the Mystical Resonance Immortal Emperor
desired. An incident like this happening within Mystical
Resonance Immortal City would bring peace to the place for at
least over a year.
"That Mystical Resonance Immortal Emperor probably doesn’t
have much free time. Now that some time has passed, he
definitely won’t be looking for us again. After all, the prime
time to deal punishment is over. If he deals punishment again,
the effect will be limited. Nonetheless, we have to be careful,"
Wu Yu said to those in the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
Truth be told, Xu Zidong and the rest were drenched in cold
sweat from the frenzied actions of Wu Yu.
With the matter dying down, Xu Zidong had made his decision.
He said, "We can switch to another immortal city. As long as
we are in a different immortal city, the Mystical Resonance
Immortal Emperor won’t be able to do anything to us.
Moreover, he might even forget about us."
"In that case, let’s return to Benevolent Immortal City.
Although the Great Lotus Immortal King isn’t dead, his
disciples are. He probably has no reason to snatch your
Immortal King Tokens. Furthermore, he definitely won’t dare
to make a move in the city and has probably been warned.
Regardless, you guys still have to be careful when you exit the
Great Void Immortal Path in 100 years. After all, I’m worried
that he might take his revenge on you guys."
Xu Zidong smiled and said, "That’s nothing to be worried
about. The sky palaces are huge and we are just small fries in
this place. We can just choose to go into seclusion for several
thousand years. It wouldn’t be easy for him to find us."
They were definitely not easily frightened!
It was true that the sky palaces were really huge. Other than the
Immortal Slayer Palace, which had a network, it was hard to
find a single person. The reason why the Immortal Slayer
Palace could find Wu Yu was because Tian Ming knew Wu Yu
was probably heading to the Sublime Gracious Sky.
This time, Wu Yu travelled alone towards Benevolent
Immortal City. A long time after he left Mystical Resonance
Immortal City, he reverted to his own appearance. Now that he
had grown stronger, his speed was quicker after shrinking
himself with the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth. He
no longer had to worry about being killed while moving in the
wilderness. After all, he now possessed strength that would
allow him to barely keep up with the experts in the Sublime
Gracious Sky.
When Wu Yu was back in Benevolent Immortal City, he chose
one out of numerous inns in the city to settle down before
letting Xu Zidong and the rest out.
They were all looking at Wu Yu in a different light.
Xu Zidong smiled and said, "I’ll spare the pleasantries. Yun Mo
made his decision, so we shouldn’t be feeling bad about it.
Moving forward, our ninth Immortal King Token will belong
to you. Wu Yu, are you willing to enter the Great Void
Immortal Path with us in 19 years?"
Wu Yu was elated and answered, "Definitely."
The matter of the Immortal King Token was settled!
After Yun Mo had screwed up and caused trouble for his
seniors, he died a worthless, pitiful death in the hands of the
Green Lotus Immortal King.
Wu Yu originally intended to go out and search for an Immortal
King Token after he had grown strong enough to face the
Immortal Slayer Palace’s assassination attempts.
He hadn’t foreseen Yun Mo’s betrayal, which led to him easily
getting an Immortal King Token.
This was a major event held every 5,000 years. Only one year
had passed, and he had already successfully acquired an
Immortal King Token.
This was excellent news.
Now he could focus on training and preparing for the
competition to get a Mark of an Immortal King.
Wu Yu’s goal was to marry Luo Pin in a grand wedding in 120
years. They would then be able to live openly as a married
couple.
As a man, this was the least that he had to give Luo Pin.
She had given up a lot for him and loved him whole-heartedly.
The two of them had experienced so much together, from their
ascension from the mortal domain to the heavenly domain. Wu
Yu would not let her continue taking the long path of
immortality alone.
She was still waiting for him now.
Wu Yu followed Xu Zidong and the others and settled down in
Benevolent Immortal City. Next, they focused all their
attention on training.
He shared with Luo Pin that he had gotten an Immortal King
Token. After hearing the news, she was naturally very happy
for him. These days, Luo Pin was busy training after receiving
the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon Legacy.
The Eight Division Heavenly Dragon Avatar and the Archaic
Divine Dragon Emperor Mantra were cultivation arts designed
specifically for the mystical dragon tribe. Luo Pin’s future was
boundless.
Perhaps countless years from now, if her training went
smoothly, Luo Pin might become stronger than the Nine Great
Dragon Emperors. Wu Yu thought that in the future, if he could
also arrive at the highest sky palaces, hold a post, and live
forever together with Luo Pin, his life would be perfect. Wu Yu
did not need a high position like the Dhrtarastra, but he aimed
to be at least an eternal immortal emperor. He and Luo Pin
would become the immortal couple that everyone would be
envious of.
That was his goal for the future.
Of course, now that they had received the four immortals’
legacies, Wu Yu needed to find out about the secrets hidden in
their legacies.
Xu Zidong and his group had prepared well. After experiencing
so many incidents, it was obvious that they would not be
wandering about before the Great Void Immortal Path opened.
They spent a hefty amount to stay in an expensive immortal
inn. Compared to Mystical Resonance Immortal City, they
would be safer in the inn. It was not cheap to pay for a 20-year
stay.
Without Xu Zidong and the others, Wu Yu would not be able
to afford to stay at such a safe place.
Wu Yu was still very grateful to them since they had given him
the Immortal King Token.
For the following 19 years, Wu Yu had a good time with Xu
Zidong’s group, and they gradually grew closer. They had
treated Wu Yu as their young brother from the Great Ancient
Ink Realm and had taken care of him well. Obviously, they had
treated Yun Mo just as well before, but Yun Mo had grown
proud and haughty because of the love and care that he had
received from them.
They had strong characters and were indeed generous people.
They also understood the joys of life. Wu Yu was happy to
spend time with them.
"Obviously, one should lead a carefree life in pursuing the
Immortal Dao. Otherwise, what’s the point of becoming an
immortal?" Xu Zidong often declared cheerfully.
"If I can become an immortal king one day, even if I may not
be able to rule a sky palace, I will work hard to get a piece of a
sky region, or a border region. At that time, my brothers and
sisters can roam around in my territory freely and live a carefree
immortal life."
This was Xu Zidong’s dream. He had grown tired of leading a
wandering life. He wanted to earn a piece of territory to become
a truly happy and satisfied immortal. This was his aim.
It was a precious dream, just like Wu Yu’s pursuit of perfection
in immortality arts.
Hence, each time the Great Void Immortal Path opened, it
became Xu Zidong’s priority. He wanted to gain a peaceful
territory for the sake of his younger siblings and the immortals
from the Great Ancient Ink Realm.
Wu Yu spent most of his time training in the Floating Dreams
Pagoda. A small portion of his time was spent chatting and
playing with Xu Zidong’s group.
In order to avoid unwanted attention and suspicion, they often
had to change their position and move into different immortal
inns. They had to do this to avoid assassination attempts. It was
a heart-pounding experience. As the time for the opening of the
Great Void Immortal Path neared, the immortal lords became
crazier in order to get their Immortal King Tokens.
During these few days, the Benevolent Immortal Emperor of
Benevolent Immortal City had slain many rebels. However,
there were still many people who had taken great risks in order
to get an Immortal King Token.
On the other hand, Wu Yu was training calmly and peacefully.
He knew that he would be competing for a Mark of an Immortal
King. The most important factor in this competition was still
his strength. Hence, his goal was to become stronger.
After all, he was still the weakest in the team. Even Yang
Wenlan was stronger than him.
Of course, they were all seniors, so it was only normal that they
were stronger than Wu Yu.
Wu Yu realized that even from the perspective of a 4-realm
immortal lord, it was still quite difficult to study his own dao.
The more he advanced in the path of immortality, the more he
needed experience and talent. Moreover, it was impossible to
improve as quickly as he once did, as the path of immortality
was vast and complex. He would need to spend more time and
energy to ponder and deduce his dao. The road of immortality
was wide like the sea, and Wu Yu only controlled a drop of
water. He still had a long way to go before he could control the
whole sea.
Wu Yu had 1,000 years of time inside the Floating Dreams
Pagoda. He got stuck at one problem and had to think for a long
time before he could find a solution. He knew clearly that if he
wanted to improve quicker, he would have to devour a being
that was stronger than a 7-realm immortal lord. Devouring
beings that were at higher cultivation levels would enable Wu
Yu to gain more experience and strength.
At present, he had better prepare thoroughly and stabilize the
strength of his cultivation level.
Now it was really dangerous outside. If he was not careful, he
could lose his life. Wu Yu was not in a hurry. He knew that his
devouring had to be well-controlled. He had to train more so
that his foundation would be more stable. Otherwise, he would
definitely become the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord in his haste
to grow stronger.
His eighth immortal dao mark was the Dao of Time
Manipulation.
When he formed his seventh immortal dao mark, the Dao of the
Void, Wu Yu had wondered about his eighth immortal dao
mark.
That was something it would have to surpass the Dao of the
Void.
He spent a lot of time thinking of something that could surpass
the Dao of the Void.
Finally, he took some inspiration from the Floating Dreams
Pagoda and understood that the one thing more profound than
the Void was the flow of time.
While changing the speed of time was only a subcategory of
the subject of controlling time, mastery of it would be shocking
enough. It would be extraordinary.
The key was that he knew that no matter which immortal lord
he devoured, none would have experience in the Dao of Time
Manipulation. Hence, other people’s perspectives and views
could only provide reference. Most importantly, Wu Yu had to
study it on his own. Just the Dao of Time Manipulation used up
1,000 years of Wu Yu’s time!
He finally understood why others had to cultivate for thousands
of years.
The road of immortality was vast, and even nine yuans of time
would not be considered too long.
Now that he had become an 8-xuan immortal possessing eight
immortal dao marks, it would become even more difficult for
him to think of his last immortal dao mark.
His ninth and last immortal dao mark had to be perfection,
something stronger than the Dao of Time Manipulation.
In contrast, the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Buddha Body was
slightly simpler. Relying on his excellent insight and plenty of
time, Wu Yu had cultivated the Dragon and Elephant Prajna
Buddha Body to the ninth tier.

Wu Yu’s buddha molecules had been divided into two and they
split nine times repeatedly. Now he was filled with the power
of the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Buddha Body, and this
boosted his strength greatly. Although Wu Yu was only an 8-
xuan immortal, his combat power had rapidly improved. He
had spent 1,000 years in the Floating Dreams Pagoda, but only
19 years had passed outside.
During this period of time, although Wu Yu had spent most of
his time studying the Dao of Time Manipulation, he had also
finally successfully understood the fifth tier of the Somersault
Cloud.
The fourth tier, Immortal Cloud Field, transformed again when
Wu Yu broke through to the fifth tier, the Sky Cloud Realm.
At the moment, to Wu Yu, the power of the Sky Cloud Realm
was as strong as an autonomous realm. Being able to reach the
Sky Cloud Realm was equivalent to Wu Yu having his own
autonomous realm. Of course, in the future, when he could
create his own autonomous realm, he would have other
transformations.
The wonders of the Sky Cloud Realm were endless. The
Somersault Cloud was the most powerful of his four great
mystiques.
The Great Void Immortal Path was finally about to open.
Now all the people possessing Immortal King Tokens would
rush to the Sublime Gracious Divine Region.
In half a month, the Sublime Gracious Divine Region would
open, and only those with Immortal King Token could enter.
The journey from the nine immortal cities to the Sublime
Gracious Divine Region was the last opportunity for immortal
lords to intercept and snatch Immortal King Tokens.
Every time, many would die or be injured during this journey.
There would also be a large number of immortal lords who
would fall into other people’s traps. These vicious fights would
not exist in the immortal palaces that people imagined.
The most dangerous moment had arrived.
During this period of time, everyone in the Ancient Ink Camp
became a little nervous.
Wu Yu knew that he had made great progress. Before they set
out, Xu Zidong was still encouraging the group. Wu Yu stood
up and said, "Brothers and sister, I would like to take you all to
the Sublime Gracious Divine Region alone using the method
that we used previously. Otherwise, we will be too big of a
target as a group."
In fact, Wu Yu intended to have everyone enter the Sublime
Gracious Divine Region together. He would bring them all
there quickly.
"The method that we used previously?" Everyone remembered
that previously, Wu Yu had become small and frighteningly
fast. That was how he had brought them from Mystical
Resonance Immortal City to Benevolent Immortal City.
"That’s right. Everyone, please take a look." Wu Yu
transformed in the blink of an eye. He used the Lawful
Embodiment of Heaven and Earth to shrink rapidly. In the end,
Wu Yu was a small person who was less than half an inch tall.
Without careful observation, Wu Yu would be difficult to
detect. Moreover, after his body became smaller, no matter
what he did, it was very convenient.
"Shall I be the one to ferry everyone to the Sublime Gracious
Divine Region or should Wu Yu do it? What do you all think?"
Xu Zidong gave his team a choice.
Yang Wenlan said, "Of course it should be Wu Yu. You are too
large and easy to target. Besides, you might not be as fast as
him. We have witnessed his growth in these 19 years. I might
not even be a match for him now."
"I also choose Wu Yu. Ha ha...." Everyone burst out laughing.
"Alright, you bunch of rascals, changing your loyalties so
easily. Are you all trying to force me to step down?" Xu Zidong
grinned.
"That’s right, I have been aiming to kick you out. Quick, it
should be my turn to be the boss now." Even Qin Chuan was
joking now.
After joking around for a while, the whole group got ready to
head out. Xu Zidong said, "Wu Yu, the responsibility to take
everyone to the Sublime Gracious Divine Region falls on you.
There are too many people blocking our way to the Great Void
Immortal Path. You have to be more careful."
Wu Yu nodded.
"Let’s go."
The whole team entered Wu Yu’s Floating Dreams Pagoda
together and he exited the Immortal Inn in his original size.
Even though this was the relatively peaceful Benevolent
Immortal City, there was a smell of blood wafting about in the
air. Many people outside were monitoring the inn intently. It
was obvious that these onlookers were up to no good.
"A Xuan immortal?"
The entire Benevolent Immortal City was swamped with
tension. Everyone suspected each other of having an Immortal
King Token.
When Wu Yu appeared, he drew a lot of attention. But after
seeing that Wu Yu was a Xuan immortal, they were
disappointed.
Even if Xuan immortals had Immortal King Tokens, it was
useless. They were too far away from becoming immortal
kings.
Wu Yu did not seem like he would have an Immortal King
Token.
"Get out."
They might only have one chance, and they should definitely
lock on to who they judged was most likely to have an Immortal
King Token and then follow and fight them.
They did not have much time left, and they had to reach
Benevolent Immortal City. Although Wu Yu did not look back,
he knew that when he left the city, there were many people
following him in secret.
There were many immortal lords who felt that it was very
plausible that he had an Immortal King Token.
Of course, Wu Yu had a plan. He suddenly turned a corner and
used the Somersault Cloud to leap out of Benevolent Immortal
City rather than use the city gates.
To those immortal lords who saw him exit the inn, it seemed
like he had vanished.
Wu Yu was currently in his miniature form, about the size of a
bee. And then he shot like an arrow towards the heart of the
Sublime Gracious Sky, towards the Sublime Gracious Divine
Region.
His Somersault Cloud traversed the void, continuously moving
between the void and reality. With the addition of the tripled
speed of the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth, he was
indeed moving at an extreme speed. He might even be faster
than the 7 or 8-realm immortal lords.
If Xu Zidong had been the one to take them there, he might
have been stopped, but it was indeed much safer for Wu Yu.
He continued to speed towards the Sublime Gracious Divine
Region.
Along the way, Wu Yu saw many epic battles taking place, and
many ambushes waiting to be sprung!
The immortal design traps were frightfully strong, and Wu Yu
had a few close shaves. Each time, it was the Somersault Cloud
that helped him win freedom.
It was obvious that the Somersault Cloud was incredibly
important. Without this mystique, Wu Yu would have been
dead countless times over.
The entire Sublime Gracious Sky had descended into chaotic
fights; Wu Yu even saw many fresh immortal lord corpses.
But he had to quickly reach the Sublime Gracious Divine
Region. Eyes on the prize. The Sublime Gracious Divine
Region would not be open for too long.
Along the way, Wu Yu even spotted many elite 9-realm
immortal lords.
The Sublime Gracious Divine Region was an impressive place.
Along the way, Wu Yu was tested but not taken down. As he
neared the Sublime Gracious Divine Region, anyone but him
would probably be stopped, ambushed, and have lost their
Immortal King Tokens. Even the 9-realm immortal lords.
The Sublime Gracious Divine Region was caged in a dark
yellow light. As he looked past the cage of light, he could
vaguely see the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor’s
grand palace.
Finally, Wu Yu reached the Sublime Gracious Divine Region,
exactly on the day it opened. The Sublime Gracious Divine
Region would remain open for half a month. And then those
that did not arrive by that time would have wasted their
Immortal King Tokens.
Wu Yu and the others arrived safely and early.
Outside the Sublime Gracious Divine Region, there was a
perimeter where fighting was forbidden. Once you were past
that, you were safe.
But outside this perimeter, many immortal lords gathered.
Evidently, they did not have Immortal King Tokens yet, and
they were hungrily watching any who neared.
Each prowled like a wolf or tiger.
Although Wu Yu was small, he was still spotted. Immediately,
he was swarmed by many elite experts. Wu Yu almost jumped
out of his skin in fright and hurriedly flipped with the
Somersault Cloud. The space was wide enough to be within his
control, and he appeared precisely within the no-fighting zone.
Safe!
Xu Zidong saw this and said with feeling, "If it were me, it
seems like we could not have come in with our Immortal King
Tokens. Unless we pretended not to have Immortal King
Tokens and snuck our way in."
Of course, no one would want to reveal that they had Immortal
King Tokens, which was why even the 9-realm immortal lords
were showing prudence!
However, reaching this place meant that they had succeeded!
Wu Yu let them all out of the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
Those outside stared at them intensely. There were nine of
them, and Xu Zidong was handing out the nine Immortal King
Tokens.
Wu Yu finally had an Immortal King Token. This was a curious
piece. There was definitely no way to replicate it, and it could
only be used once.
"Hold the Immortal King Token in your hand and follow me
into the Sublime Gracious Divine Region," Xu Zidong said,
beaming.
"Alright!"
They were all in unusually high spirits.
Xu Zidong strode ahead, the Ancient Ink Camp members
smiling behind as they prepared to step into Sublime Gracious
Divine Region. They would pass through the immortal design,
Immortal King Tokens in hand.
Wu Yu was just about to go in, when suddenly, in the crowd
outside, he saw a familiar figure. Even though he was masked,
Wu Yu still recognized him. This was the person from the
Immortal Slayer Palace hired to kill him.
He was here too! Of course, he might be looking for an
Immortal King Token to enter the Great Void Immortal Path as
well. He was looking at Wu Yu incredulously, which was why
Wu Yu had taken notice.
That person did not have an Immortal King Token and
therefore could not enter. He could only murderously stare at
Wu Yu.
Wu Yu laughed derisively at him. "Tell the Tian Ming Dragon
Lord that he has spent too little. When I get out of here, he will
have to hire an immortal king to kill me."
The man was very unsettled that Wu Yu had actually
recognized him.
He laughed back coldly. "Stop bragging. It’s just 100 years. I
will wait here for you to return. At that time, let’s see if your
talents in escaping are still so good."
"Very well. Wait here, and don’t you dare leave." Wu Yu
laughed.
Right now, he had some confidence in killing this person, let
alone 100 years from now.
He was just one zhang away from the fighting perimeter.
In truth, he was very disappointed about not being able to find
Wu Yu in these 20 years. And then he had come here to see if
he could get an Immortal King Token and then had spotted Wu
Yu.
"I will definitely not leave."
"Is this the assassin from the Immortal Slayer Palace?" Xu
Zidong asked him tersely.
"Mm."
Wu Yu nodded.
However, entering the Sublime Gracious Divine Region was
the most urgent matter now. There was no need to waste time
here. Wu Yu smiled at him coldly again and then entered the
Sublime Gracious Divine Region with Xu Zidong and the
others!
One had to have an Immortal King Token in hand to enter!

When the Immortal King Token touched the immortal design,

it began to melt, and a pathway opened up. Wu Yu immediately
entered the tunnel, passing through the dark yellow immortal
design. Soon, the Immortal King Token in his hand completely
vanished and he was in the Sublime Gracious Divine Region!
An Immortal King Token could only be used once. Since he
had come in, he could not possibly go out now.
Of course, after spending so much effort to get in, one would
not be inclined to immediately leave either.
Although it was only the first day of opening, and not even 20
hours had passed, there were already crowds of people here. It
was a huge arena, and everyone would have to wait here for
half a month. The Great Void Immortal Path would only open
once the Sublime Gracious Divine Region closed.
This huge courtyard was boundless, and looked like it could fit
a billion people without a problem.
Many immortal lords were milling about. There were probably
tens of millions of them, as numerous as trees in a forest. It was
a breathtaking sight. Those that came in earlier were definitely
the stronger ones. They might very well be the ones to obtain
the Mark of an Immortal King.
This place forbade personal feuds with the threat of being
thrown out and all their efforts going to waste.
In the sky above, there were also many immortal kings,
subordinates of the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor.
There were hundreds of them patrolling above. They looked
grim and ready to fight. They added to the austerity of the
mood. Under the intimidation of these immortal kings, the
immortal lords gathered would wait obediently for a month.
Even if they met their lifelong enemies, now was not the time
to fight. Everyone had gone to great lengths to come here. Of
course, they would not do anything rash.
"Follow me, everyone. Don’t wander."
It would be difficult to regroup here if they were separated.
They crowded together and waited in a corner. They had finally
come to the place they had dreamed of, and all of them were a
little shaken up. After all, this was a major event even in the
whole of the sky palaces.
Wu Yu also waited patiently.
Suddenly, he heard a voice from nearby. "The Xue Ling
Immortal Lord doesn’t even know something that basic? He
tried to bring others with his destinable immortal treasure.
Although it was just his wife, she’s a living person. Of course,
each Immortal King Token can only bring one person into the
Sublime Gracious Divine Region. So his Immortal King Token
was wasted! His Immortal King Token melted, and now he’s
stuck outside. He’s wailing his heart out!"
"He doesn’t even know that? How could the immortal design
of the Sublime Gracious Divine Region miss a live person in a
destinable immortal treasure? What an idiot!"
"I remember that only Spirits of the Universe can come in. It
doesn’t seem to care about Spirits of the Universe."
Wu Yu’s eyes contracted after hearing this. He had actually
forgotten such an important thing!
The Full Moon of Nanshan and the others were still in the
Floating Dreams Pagoda.
And the two of them had followed him in.
This meant that one Immortal King Token had brought three
people in!
But they were here, and not stuck outside the immortal design!
"How did you get in?" The Full Moon of Nanshan and the
others did not know about this, and had not considered it before.
"I don’t know."
“Perhaps your Floating Dreams Pagoda is powerful and can
elude the search? Or perhaps our two legacies are special, and
not easily detected?" the Full Moon of Nanshan offered.
"All possible. I hope that it’s one of those two, and not
something else," Wu Yu said.
But he felt that it was likely one of those options. This huge
immortal design had to be activated by the Immortal King
Token. It was normal that errors would occasionally crop up.
The fact that he could enter without problems was lucky indeed.
And not like that Xue Ling Immortal Lord.
"Well, we’re in. Haha...." The Full Moon of Nanshan laughed.
They definitely could not leave Wu Yu right now. In this sky
palace, they did not have the strength to defend themselves.
After all, it was a rather harsh level.
He asked Xu Zidong about these things, and Xu Zidong replied,
"Destinable immortal treasures indeed cannot hide people.
Otherwise, we would have only needed one Immortal King
Token. But it’s rumored that there’s a chance of custom-made
elite destinable immortal treasures bringing people in. But
those with such power can use that same power to just gain a
few more Immortal King Tokens."
"A Xuan immortal?"
The entire Benevolent Immortal City was swamped with
tension. Everyone suspected each other of having an Immortal
King Token.
When Wu Yu appeared, he drew a lot of attention. But after
seeing that Wu Yu was a Xuan immortal, they were
disappointed.
Even if Xuan immortals had Immortal King Tokens, it was
useless. They were too far away from becoming immortal
kings.
Wu Yu did not seem like he would have an Immortal King
Token.
"Get out."
They might only have one chance, and they should definitely
lock on to who they judged was most likely to have an Immortal
King Token and then follow and fight them.
They did not have much time left, and they had to reach
Benevolent Immortal City. Although Wu Yu did not look back,
he knew that when he left the city, there were many people
following him in secret.
There were many immortal lords who felt that it was very
plausible that he had an Immortal King Token.
Of course, Wu Yu had a plan. He suddenly turned a corner and
used the Somersault Cloud to leap out of Benevolent Immortal
City rather than use the city gates.
To those immortal lords who saw him exit the inn, it seemed
like he had vanished.
Wu Yu was currently in his miniature form, about the size of a
bee. And then he shot like an arrow towards the heart of the
Sublime Gracious Sky, towards the Sublime Gracious Divine
Region.
His Somersault Cloud traversed the void, continuously moving
between the void and reality. With the addition of the tripled
speed of the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth, he was
indeed moving at an extreme speed. He might even be faster
than the 7 or 8-realm immortal lords.
If Xu Zidong had been the one to take them there, he might
have been stopped, but it was indeed much safer for Wu Yu.
He continued to speed towards the Sublime Gracious Divine
Region.
Along the way, Wu Yu saw many epic battles taking place, and
many ambushes waiting to be sprung!
The immortal design traps were frightfully strong, and Wu Yu
had a few close shaves. Each time, it was the Somersault Cloud
that helped him win freedom.
It was obvious that the Somersault Cloud was incredibly
important. Without this mystique, Wu Yu would have been

elite destinable immortal treasures bringing people in. But
those with such power can use that same power to just gain a
few more Immortal King Tokens."
The 100 million immortal lords were waiting eagerly for the
Great Void Immortal Path to open.
The Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor’s words had
actually spoken of the Jade Emperor, who presided over the
8,000 levels of heaven. This caused quite the stir.
Wu Yu was similarly fascinated. He recalled that the fight for
Marks of an Immortal King were completely overseen by the
Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor. The Jade Emperor
was too high above and would definitely not be involved with
the Sublime Gracious Sky.
And this news had not been announced before today.
Therefore, Wu Yu looked out to see surprise on the faces of the
immortal lords, which soon turned to awe.
Looking up, even the various immortal emperors looked taken
aback. The Ruling Sky Manifesting Sage Great Emperor said,
"The Jade Emperor is actually taking a hand in the trifling
matter of the Marks of an Immortal King?"
The other immortals also started to mutter in confusion about
this.
Wu Yu noticed that the Dhrtarastra and the Primeval Mighty
Miracle God did not say anything. After all, the Dhrtarastra was
the Jade Emperor’s door guard, so he might have already heard
the news. That was probably why he had brought his daughter,
Mo Yuji, to the Sublime Gracious Sky personally.
Ordinarily, people of importance like the Dhrtarastra would not
come to the fight for the Marks of an Immortal King.
Everyone was currently listening hard to the Eastern Sublime
Gracious Divine Emperor’s announcement. What was so
special about the Jade Emperor’s interest in this fight for Marks
of an Immortal King?
The Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor did not keep
them in suspense, but said directly, "There are nine grades of
Marks of an Immortal King, which are great void immortal
treasures. Those with 1 billion spirit designs are known as first-
grade Marks of an Immortal King, while those that reach 2
billion spirit designs are known as second-grade Marks of an
Immortal King. Those with 9 billion spirit designs are known
as ninth-grade Marks of an Immortal King, and considered the
best. However, this time around, the Jade Emperor has made,
in his idle moments, a Mark of an Immortal King that has 10
billion spirit designs. This is unique, and classified as a 10th-
grade Mark of an Immortal King. The Jade Emperor says that
the one who receives the 10th-grade Mark of an Immortal King
will definitely reach immortal emperor level in the future. As
for the 10th-grade Mark of an Immortal King, it is currently
somewhere in the Endless River of Stars. Whether you can win
it will depend on all of you."
This was a 10 billion-level great void immortal treasure.
When the spirit designs numbered 10 billion, it was no longer
a Mark of an Immortal King, but a weapon that the immortal
emperors used, passed through the ages, or even had a
connection to the heavens themselves. They were called
epochal immortal treasures.
This showed how incredible a 10th-grade Mark of an Immortal
King was.
Everyone assumed that ninth grade was the highest, but the
Jade Emperor had casually made this 10th-grade Mark of an
Immortal King and then tossed it out into the world so that all
the immortal lords present would have a chance to win it.
The Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor had already
explained the impressiveness of a 10th-grade Mark of an
Immortal King.
It was simple. Win it, and there were no doubts about your rise
to immortal emperor.
No doubt about eternal life!
Throughout history, there had been countless immortal kings.
How many of them had become immortal emperors?
In the last 10 yuan, more than 1 million years, there had not
even been a single new immortal emperor, not even one
newcomer to the folds of eternal life! The path to eternal life
was not that easy a road. All who were immortal emperors were
valued officials in the sky palaces, and had official
appointments. This number seemed to never increase.
And to guarantee one’s rise to immortal emperor was
equivalent to a guarantee of eternal life!
Who would not lose their mind over this?
Wu Yu’s heart was racing.
Xu Zidong inhaled sharply. "If the Eastern Sublime Gracious
Divine Emperor had not announced this news today, but instead
a century ago, then there would be 10 times the number of
competitors. And the likes of us would be unable to even get
Marks of an Immortal King."
Such was the attractiveness of a 10th-grade Mark of an
Immortal King.
This news would probably shake the 8,000 Sky Palaces
themselves.
The chance to become an eternal immortal emperor, to bring
glory to one’s ancestors - the chance was somewhere in the
Endless River of Stars.
Wu Yu could see that many of the immortal lords were fighting
for control over their rising restlessness. They could not curb
the excitement boiling within, and their hunger shone through
their eyes. It was as though the flames of passion within their
breasts flared anew with a wildness.
There were not many who could remain calm when news of the
10th-grade Mark of an Immortal King was revealed. Wu Yu
looked up and saw that many of the children of those immortal
emperors were also seized with a frenzy at the opportunity to
reach where their ancestors did.
Even Mo Yuji looked aghast, blown away by the new
information. Her face also lit up fiercely.
A strong fire burned in the chests of all 100 million immortal
lords.
The Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor threw some
cold water on their passion. "Don’t get too excited, all of you.
It is a high reach indeed, the 10th-grade Mark of an Immortal
King. Given your strength, a precious few of you stand a
chance, and I have set a very difficult trial, in light of my bet
with the Jade Emperor that no one will get the 10th-grade Mark
of an Immortal King within 50,000 years. You all are just the
first batch."
In 50,000 years, there would be 10 batches of the Great Void
Immortal Path. This meant that the 10th-grade Mark of an
Immortal King was not meant to be acquired the first time, so
that those in the future would also have a chance. It did not
mean that the 10th-grade Mark of an Immortal King belonged
to one of these 100 million immortal lords.
"There are 50,000 Marks of an Immortal King in the Endless
River of Stars. Which means that one out of 2,000 or 3,000 of
you will get a Mark of an Immortal King. For most of you
immortal lords, it’s best to stay honest. That’s all I have to say.
Think about the rest yourselves."
The Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor meant that
while the 10th-grade Mark of an Immortal King was a huge
attraction, it had nothing to do with most people. If one aimed
too high, one might even lose the most basic prize. The Eastern
Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor was sure that no one would
get it within 50,000 years. This meant he was confident in the
trial that he had set, and had even declared this before the Jade
Emperor.
Therefore, it would be the next contest for Marks of an
Immortal King that would really explode in popularity.
"That’s right. Let’s be prudent about this. We should be super
grateful if we can just get a Mark of an Immortal King," Xu
Zidong said to them.
Of 100 million immortal lords, only one out of 2,000 or 3,000
would get a Mark of an Immortal King. Those were fairly
meager odds. In such a situation, it was best to know one’s
limits.
Wu Yu also understood that this 10th-grade Mark of an
Immortal King probably did not have much to do with him.
He only needed a Mark of an Immortal King. No matter what
grade it was, he would have accomplished his goal.
Before they entered the Sublime Gracious Divine Region, he
had already sent an Immortal Message Talisman to Luo Pin,
telling her that he had already entered the 100-year fight and
that she should not worry.
Wu Yu stored Luo Pin’s reply carefully. In the century on the
Great Void Immortal Path, he could take it out to reminisce
over.
"It is very difficult to get a Mark of an Immortal King on this
Great Void Immortal Path, and even harder to hold on to it for
100 years. We have to remain low-profile. Most of the time,
protecting our lives is the first priority. Got it, everyone? Don’t
be greedy for what doesn’t belong to us." Xu Zidong again
warned them before the Great Void Immortal Path opened.
"Got it, Boss. We’re also just going in to learn."
"Good."

As the anxious anticipation rose, the Eastern Sublime Gracious

Divine Emperor announced that the door to the Great Void
Immortal Path would soon open.
However, it was not him who would open the door, but Marshal
Tian You beside him. Marshal Tian You reached forth a hand,
and a ripple suddenly appeared in a corner of the sky in the
Sublime Gracious Divine Region. With that ripple at the center,
starlight suddenly streamed forth, and a vortex of starlight
formed. It continued to grow before all of them.
This was the door to the Great Void Immortal Path. Entering it
was like no other place. At this time, they would not have any
Escape Immortal Designs with them. They would have to wait
100 years until the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor
personally escorted them out. Within this time, their fate was in
their own hands.
In the fight for Immortal King Tokens, up to 100 million might
die, let alone in the contest for Marks of an Immortal King. The
killing was appalling within each Great Void Immortal Path,
and not many of the 100 million immortal lords would return
safely.
The sky palaces were not principally opposed to such
competitions, because it would weed the weak from the strong.
"Go on in."
After the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor called out,
the 100 million immortal lords fought and clawed to get in first.
They rushed into the stellar vortex, those nearest entering first.
Of course, they would have 100 years to slowly fight over it.
Entering first or later did not really mean much. In the end,
strength would tell. Therefore, although there was some
pushing and shoving, there was some semblance of order.
In fact, those who were more powerful and confident were
unhurried. Conversely, it was the insecure ones who wished to
rush in at the very first moment, dying to start the contest.
"Let’s go. Stick close and don’t get separated," Xu Zidong said.
After all, there were 100 million immortal lords pushing
forward, and the sheer scale of the crowd made it easy for them
to lose each other. They were not particularly strong, and
considered in the weak tier. Therefore, they did not dare to split
up.
As they looked up, tens of thousands of immortal lords were
vanishing into the stellar vortex at each moment. In less than an
hour, all 100 million immortal lords had entered.
"Marshal Tian You, how do you see this cohort of immortal
lords?" the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor asked.
Marshal Tian You said, "Seems better than the average batches
of before. But not much better. Perhaps the daughter of
Dhrtarastra and the Gu Huo Immortal Lord might surprise us.
In any case, my Endless Immortal Army has already honed
their blades well, and is waiting for them."
Time passed.
Wu Yu was in the midst of the group, which slowly moved
forward. Finally, the enormous stellar portal was before their
eyes, and the immortal lords started to take flight, entering the
Great Void Immortal Path.
"Out of the way!"
Suddenly, there was a loud shout from behind them. Wu Yu
and the others turned to see a few hundred people wearing
phoenix-designed clothing and wreathed in flames. They flew
above their heads.
"It’s the Eternal Phoenix tribe!"
The Eternal Phoenix tribe were all immortal beasts, and very
united. The few hundred of them were basically all 7-realm
immortal lords and above, and they were quite the force to be
reckoned with. When they moved as one, the scattered
immortals like Wu Yu’s bunch would have to give way.
Wu Yu’s eyes suddenly fell on one person, who was probably
the highest ranked, seeing as she was surrounded by everyone.
It was the daughter of the Provenance Phoenix Empress.
Littlest daughter.
When he saw her face, Wu Yu’s mind was blown, as though he
had been struck by thunder.
The Eternal Phoenix tribe’s party of immortal lords advanced
in orderly fashion.
Even though they were bird-types, they also flew in a
procession that announced their hierarchy.
The one personally brought by the Provenance Phoenix
Empress was said to be her youngest daughter, and she was
surrounded by a bunch of 9-realm immortal lords and flew in
the middle, high above.
This was the little princess of the Eternal Phoenix tribe, and
evidently someone hotly watched this time around!
She had been too far from Wu Yu previously, and so he had not
seen her!
And now they had vanished into the starlight portal at great
speed. But Wu Yu had clearly seen that the little princess’
features were exactly the same as Nangong Wei’s!
"Nangong Wei! How is that possible?! She is still in the mortal
domain!"
Wu Yu was thunderstruck. His eyes refused to register this, and
his steps halted, numbed by the cognitive dissonance.
In truth, he had all but forgotten Nangong Wei in these few
decades in the sky palaces. And now seeing her face appear, the
shock to his spirit was total.
"It’s impossible. Besides, she is clearly a 7-realm immortal lord
or higher, far surpassing me. I have the Heaven Devouring
Titanic Beast, but am still a Xuan immortal. It’s definitely
impossible.
"Perhaps it’s just the looks?"
His heart rose and fell unsteadily.
"What’s wrong, Wu Yu?" Seeing Wu Yu suddenly stop, the
others turned to him worriedly, seeing his face change.
Wu Yu composed himself and asked, "That Eternal Phoenix
tribe. Who was the centermost person being protected?"
Yang Wenlan smiled. "Silly, of course that’s the youngest
daughter of the Provenance Phoenix Empress. Her title is the
Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord."
"Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord? Has she always been in the sky
palaces?" Wu Yu asked.
"But of course. However, the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord is
the daughter of the Provenance Phoenix Empress, and is
definitely a genius. Although it has only been slightly more
than one yuan since she was born, and she is still considered
young, she has already reached the seventh tier of the Immortal
Lord Realm. That is fairly astonishing. If not for her youth, she
could probably go toe to toe against that Mo Yuji," Yang
Wenlan said admiringly.
"Oh, I’m so envious of them. They are the beauties of the sky
palaces, and also elite geniuses. In the future, they have the
potential to rise to become the mightiest of immortal kings, or
even immortal emperors. If I could just be a little immortal king
in the future, I would be satisfied." Yang Wenlan was full of
envy towards the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord and Mo Yuji.
"More than one yuan, meaning more than 100,000 years? Are
you all sure that she has been cultivating in the sky palaces for
these 100,000 years?" Wu Yu asked.
The Ancient Ink Camp members looked around at each other,
and Huang-Pu Yijun smiled. "Where else? The Dancing Flame
Phoenix Lord is the apple of the Eternal Phoenix tribe’s eye. Of
course, she was tutored by the Provenance Phoenix Empress
since young, and it’s said that she rarely even leaves the
Immortal Phoenix Imperial Realm.
"What’s the matter, Wu Yu?" Xu Zidong asked.
Wu Yu shook his head irritably. "I knew someone in the mortal
domain who looked exactly like her, so...."
After hearing this, they all broke into smiles.
Qing Yuli said, "This world has innumerable beings, all of
which have two eyes, a nose, and a mouth. There are many
immortals, just like humans. I’ve also met my double before."
Yang Wenlan laughed as well. "If someone can look like the
Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord, they must be a great beauty as
well. However, look carefully. Although they may look the
same, the real difference should lie in the aura. No matter how
comely a mortal might be, they would not be on the same level
as a woman of superior bearing like the Dancing Flame
Phoenix Lord."
"Indeed...." Wu Yu could only concede. Nangong Wei was
already very beautiful in his regard, but aura was aura, and it
was an indicator of one’s status in life, the combined effect of
one’s identity and position. Although he had been given a big
shock, the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord was on the level of Mo
Yuji, and clearly very different from the mortal Nangong Wei.
After all, she was a genius of the sky palaces who had been
cultivating for more than one yuan.
"Perhaps it is just a coincidence." Wu Yu nodded. He was not
in a position to go back to the mortal domain for a look;
otherwise, he would definitely go to the Jambu Realm to
confirm things.
"What’s the holdup? Get a move on, don’t block the way." At
this time, those behind started to grumble at their halt. Besides,
they were 8-realm immortal lords, and Xu Zidong had no wish
to offend them. He hurriedly shooed Wu Yu on.
They quickened their pace and rushed into the starlight portal.
However, Wu Yu was still reeling from the shock, and the
features of the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord were still seared
in his mind.
"Are there truly doppelgangers in this world?
"We haven’t met in a long time. I wonder if she’s doing well in
the Jambu Realm, and if she’s near immortalhood yet...."
He was still in frequent communication with the Great Ancient
Ink Realm. Princess You Xue had improved greatly, and would
be able to rise to immortalhood without a problem. Jiu Ying
and the others had caught up as well, and Wu You was doing
well for herself too.
If Wu Yu secured a stable place in the sky palaces one day, he
wished to bring them all up so they would reach immortalhood
even faster.
After they did, they could live for 120,000 years without a
problem, and take it easy after that.
The starlight twinkled, and Wu Yu was plunged into the river
of stars, carried along by the starlight.
"Don’t get separated!"
Xu Zidong held on to them, and all nine of them supported each
other as they moved through the stars. This was a tunnel, and
the front grew brighter and brighter. They passed through
another vortex, finally coming to a halt.
Wu Yu looked around him. He was floating in the air without
using any flying techniques. In the world around him, there was
not the slightest bit of immortal qi, nor the presence of anything
at all.
He looked around him. Whether up, down, left, or right, it was
just endless, black space. This was the Endless River of Stars,
also known as the Great Void Immortal Path.
In this endless darkness, there was nothing but a majestic river
before him! The river was like a knife, dividing the darkness
into left and right halves. Its light was extremely resplendent.
Looking closer, the river actually comprised countless stars,
and the light of the river was starlight!
This starry river was the Endless Immortal Army, and also
where the Endless Immortal Army camped and trained.
Of course, this was where the Marks of an Immortal King
would be fought over in these 100 years.
"It’s said that there are millions of stars in the Endless River of
Stars! The 50,000 Marks of an Immortal King are hidden in
these millions of stars. They come in all shapes and forms, and
they are preceded by all sorts of tests!"
"Right now, 100 million immortal lords are streaming in. Those
that entered first will definitely rush towards the Endless River
of Stars to search for a Mark of an Immortal King."
"The Great Void Immortal Path has separated many of us. We
must be scattered all across the sky, evenly distributed across
the length of the Endless River of Stars. This is also why we
don’t see many immortal lords near us."

Wu Yu also realized that not all 100 million immortal lords had
been deposited in the same place by the stellar vortex. Instead,
they had been spread out all over the sky, and they were
approaching the river of stars from various directions.
If they had not held hands, they would have been separated too.
Holding hands had been effective, which meant that the contest
for the Marks of an Immortal King allowed team fighting. For
example, those few hundred fighters from the Eternal Phoenix
tribe could work together. They had many 9-realm immortal
lords in their midst, and any who met them was in for a bad
time.
After all, the strongest here were 9-realm immortal lords. Even
the strongest 9-realm immortal lords would also be food when
they were swamped by equals in greater numbers. Therefore,
everyone knew that the strongest groups, such as the Eternal
Phoenix contingent, were definitely one of the most feared.
Actually, those like the children of the Dhrtarastra would also
definitely have a large group of people protecting them. They
would at least have a few dozen elites in their team. Because
the contest for Marks of an Immortal King had no age limit,
many of the 9-realm immortal lords were already aged. They
were probably already near the nine-yuan limit of their
lifespans.
They, more than anyone else, desired the Marks of an Immortal
King, which represented a new extension of life that would
answer their troubles. Otherwise, even 9-realm immortal lords
had a limit to their life, and they were no different from 9-yuan
heavenly immortals.
Only immortal kings could enjoy boundless longevity.
Only immortal emperors could have eternal life.
This was also why many immortal lords pursued immortal king
status - to reach the Great Void Immortal Realm, and a level of
being that was beyond the Immortal Lord Realm.
"Let’s go!"
Xu Zidong was bursting with enthusiasm. He led the Ancient
Ink Camp members and Wu Yu towards the Endless River of
Stars.
As for Wu Yu, his mind was still on the Dancing Flame
Phoenix Lord. He was a little distracted as he hurried alongside
them.
After many years together, the nine of them had already formed
a sibling-like bond that Wu Yu highly respected.
As they neared the Endless River of Stars, they realized that
there was a considerable distance between the individual stars.
At their speed, they would probably take at least 10 days to
travel from one star to another. The further ones would take
many months.
There were millions of stars here, which meant that no one
would be able to search all the stars.
It was not crowded for the 100 million immortal lords to be in
this endless river.
100 years was not a long time either.
The Endless River of Stars was deceptively close. In actuality,
more than half a month had passed by the time they reached the
first star that Xu Zidong had determined.
They finally arrived at the Endless River of Stars.
Beneath their feet was a huge star, dark grey in color and
pockmarked with craters. There were also many meteorite
scars, and the accumulation of dust-colored rocks on the ground
indicated the long passage of time.
This star was huge, about half the size of the Yan Huang
Ancient Region. It teemed with immortal qi, but the
environment was extremely harsh. Immortal qi moved
chaotically, and it was not suitable for the weaker cultivators.
Therefore, this Endless River of Stars was actually a barren
land amidst the 8,000 Sky Palaces.
Each star had a number, and the one they had landed on was:
Star 38, 731. They began their search.
"There’s no one near here. Let’s split up and search the whole
star," Xu Zidong asserted.
Strength in numbers.
When they first appeared in the sky, they could still see a few
people near them. As they veered apart, they saw no other
immortal lord near them, and could search in peace.
In this star with half the area of the Yan Huang Ancient Region,
the nine Ancient Ink Camp members spread apart, each person
in charge of one region. 100 years was a short time, so they had
to hustle.
"Are the places with Marks of an Immortal King special?" Wu
Yu asked.
"No idea. But if you see something out of place, attack it with
all you got. It’s said that the Marks of an Immortal King are
concealed in many strange and ingenious ways. There is no
fixed formula. Whether you can activate it or not sometimes
depends on luck as well. Basically, nothing is certain.
Everything depends on your luck."
Wu Yu chuckled dryly. But he too understood that if there was
a fixed method, it would have been leaked out long ago, and
finding the Marks of an Immortal King would only grow easier
and easier.
"Everyone, don’t forget that I still have that mystique."
Although they had each divided up the area equally, Wu Yu
noted the absence of other immortal lords and therefore used
his Unshackled Doppelganger mystique. Instantly, his 100,000
doppelgangers stood ready and scattered in all directions across
the star, on Wu Yu’s command.
"This mystique is a miracle! With this mystique, we might
actually be able to find a Mark of an Immortal King!" Qin
Chuan marveled at the many Wu Yus.
"Haha, I won big the day I decided to bring you in! With your
mystique, we might even be able to get Marks of an Immortal
King!" Xu Zidong laughed happily.
Wu Yu was truly of great use to them.
Seeing Wu Yu’s mystique, all of them broke into smiles.
"These clones of mine are not as adroit as all of you. They
might miss things, and the harsh environment on this star means
that the immortal bodies of the clones have their movement
impeded."
The utility of the 100,000 doppelgangers was not that great.
Therefore, it was also important that the Ancient Ink Camp
people searched as well.
"No matter what, they are still of help. Wu Yu, many thanks,"
Ye Yi said.
"Brothers and sisters, please do not stand on ceremony. If not
for you all, I would not even be able to enter this place. There
is no time like the present. Let us search."
"Yes!"
Marks of an Immortal King were indeed very difficult to find.
And the star was only this big.
A search, especially a meticulous one, would eat up a lot of
time.
Besides, even if a Mark of an Immortal King was here, they
might not be able to detect it.
The key was that of the millions of stars, only 50,000 had
Marks of an Immortal King. They might search for 100 years
without finding a single one.
Not just them, but this was a likely situation for many as well.
They would have done all that work for nothing and then would
have to wait for 5,000 more years.
Fight all over again for an Immortal King Token and then come
in here for another futile search.
Therefore, in this largely rewardless search, it was important to
adjust one’s expectations.
When everyone joined hands, their chances of finding
something also increased. Wu Yu was definitely prepared to
work with them.
He also wanted to win a Mark of an Immortal King for Xu
Zidong.
Everyone dispersed, and Wu Yu’s 100,000 doppelgangers
covered the entire star. Of course, 100,000 doppelgangers was
not a large number for a star this big. Each star could hold all
100 million immortal lords.
His real body also searched everywhere, his Eyes of Fire and
Gold scanning the land for the "special places" that Xu Zidong
had spoken of.
Sky was sky and earth was earth. What made a place special?
This sort of search was definitely tedious.
Luckily, with 100,000 doppelgangers searching high and low,
his efficiency increased greatly. He was just worried that the
clones would not be able to recognize the uniqueness of a Mark
of an Immortal King.
Once they missed it, it would be wasted effort.
"Seems like I still need to work on the Unshackled
Doppelganger. If I had 1 million clones, I would have 10 times
the efficiency. This is the Endless River of Stars, not the
Dragon Emperor’s Purgatory. It’s exponentially bigger."
Before, Wu Yu felt that 100,000 doppelgangers was enough,
and had not developed it further. He had turned his attention to
the Eyes of Fire and Gold and Somersault Cloud. And now it
seemed that the Endless River of Stars had shown him the
importance of the doppelgangers anew.
Time passed, day by day.
Wu Yu used his 100,000 doppelgangers and Immortal Message
Talismans, occasionally meeting with the other eight. For now,
there were no discoveries.
They could find Wu Yu’s clones at any time.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed, and Wu Yu felt that
they had more or less covered this star completely. His clones
had walked about every part of the land and not found anything.
"We might have to search 3,000 stars before we find a single
Mark of an Immortal King. And we might even miss it. How
disheartening...."
Even Wu Yu was taken aback by the scale of the problem. If he
spent the time on cultivation, he would improve much faster.
But the Mark of an Immortal King was essential.
Just as the listlessness began to take him, an Immortal Message
Talisman suddenly came from Qin Chuan. They all hurried
over to his location.
They also had Wu Yu hide the 100,000 doppelgangers so they
would not call attention to themselves.
Wu Yu was surprised. "If they ask me to remain low-profile,
does this mean they found something?"
He hastily complied and then flew speedily towards Qin Chuan.
His clones knew Qin Chuan’s location, and so he was the first
to arrive. He had not been far anyway.
He came to a flat piece of land, a rarity on the uneven terrain of
this star. It was very wide, and such flat ground could even hold
a castle.
Wu Yu recalled that his clones had come here before and
searched for a long time without finding anything.
When Wu Yu arrived, Xu Zidong did as well, and the others
filtered in later. Qin Chuan looked rather excited. When most
of them were gathered, he said, "This star is full of high
mountains and deep crevices, and it’s so rare to see a piece of
flat land like this. I observed it for a long while, and I’m sure
that it’s one of the special places you mentioned."
Xu Zidong frowned. "How?"
"I don’t have a clue." Qin Chuan wrung his hands.
They looked a little disappointed. So it was just a guess in the
dark. Jin Kaiwen scratched his head. "Marks of an Immortal
King are very rare. The odds are against us finding anything on
the first star we land on. I feel like it’s nothing special. How
about going to another star?"
"I feel that the others are all trying their luck and changing stars
repeatedly. They’re probably not searching with much care.
After all, there are only 100 years; it’s not enough at all," Wu
Xiao said.
Wu Yu thought about it. "Let’s not be hasty. After all, I think
we still trust in our own instincts. Since Second Brother Qin
says that there’s something special about this place, and we
don’t know what special means anyway, how about we all try
attacking together? Trying won’t kill us."
Xu Zidong smiled. "Wu Yu’s right. If we see anything that
strikes us as different, we should just strike at it. Although it
may be unlikely, perhaps in the next few thousand times, one
of them will succeed?"
Since it was no loss to them, it was just an exertion.
"Sure."

They all flew up together, pulling out their destinable immortal

treasures.
Xu Zidong said, "The Great Void Immortal Path is too vast.
After searching for so long, we’re all losing our minds! Forget
100 years later, let’s vent it all out now. Damned Marks of an
Immortal King! F*ck!"
At his command, all of their destinable immortal treasures
sprang into action. The Towering Sky Immortal City, the
Mountains and Rivers Sword, the Nine Regional Soul Piercer -
all of their immortal designs activated simultaneously. Wu
Yu’s own Floating Dreams Sword also used the Great Fissure
Qian Kun Design. All together, their combined power smote
the flat ground!
BOOM! RUMBLE!
The fearsome power seemed to shake the entire star, and dust
filled the air. Even the air itself was torn apart, and one could
see that a huge crater had been blasted into the float ground.
The platform gleamed, and no sign of a Mark of an Immortal
King was to be seen.
They laughed dryly, and Xu Zidong said, "As expected, we
aren’t that lucky. This star is a disappointment. Let’s go
somewhere else."
Since they had come up empty-handed, they were disappointed
in this star. Therefore, they turned to the sky full of stars above
them and followed Xu Zidong’s lead. He said, "That star is
brighter. Let’s go there, maybe we’ll find something."
"Alright, let’s go."
They flew up, charging out of the star’s field, flying up into the
galaxy.
Suddenly, a beam of light came from behind them. It seemed
to illuminate the void itself, and they turned back in shock.
Beneath their feet, a beam of light shot out from the star,
swallowing them all. This beam of light continued to project
outwards, like a bridge of light. It was blinding!
"This is...."
"F*ck me sideways, let’s go back down!" A wild joy filled Xu
Zidong’s face, and he led the way back down.
Wu Yu’s Eyes of Fire and Gold could vaguely make out the
point of origin of this light column. It was the flat piece of land,
and it seemed like a huge immortal city had appeared, which
was producing the light.
"Something’s happening. The Mark of an Immortal King must
be within that immortal city. Go, go, go!" Qin Chuan whooped.
"Impossible!"
No one could have dreamed that the first star they searched
would actually have a Mark of an Immortal King!
Ordinarily, there was only one Mark of an Immortal King every
few thousand stars.
Therefore, it was hard to take in the appearance of this immortal
city.
And coincidentally, their violent tactic had been the exact
trigger needed to unlock the mechanism of this specific Mark
of an Immortal King and make the immortal city appear!
Of course, this immortal city would definitely have its trials.
Therefore, it was a little early to say that they had acquired a
Mark of an Immortal King.
However, a chance was a fine thing. Wu Yu was a little
surprised, but he followed them down. As they neared the
immortal city, they saw that it was a dazzling gem of luxury,
and also filled with many immortal designs. As they neared, Xu
Zidong and the others saw that there were people in the
immortal city!
There were about a dozen immortal lords, clad in white,
immortal armor.
"We, the Endless Immortal Army, guard the Mark of an
Immortal King with our lives! Puny ones, go away!"
As expected, Marshal Tian You’s Endless Immortal Army was
guarding the place. This was the greatest obstacle between Wu
Yu’s group and the Mark of an Immortal King.
However, the chance was right before their eyes. No one would
give up now!
If they could gain a Mark of an Immortal King here, they could
just hide for the next 100 years!
It was highly likely that this was the first Mark of an Immortal
King to appear in the entire Endless River of Stars!
This luck was godlike.
But Wu Yu could see clearly that these dozen Endless Immortal
Army soldiers would not be easy to deal with.
The opportunity to get a Mark of an Immortal King was right
before their eyes. Everyone from the Ancient Ink Camp gave it
their all and charged towards the Endless Immortal Army.
Wu Yu knew about the comprehensive strength of the Ancient
Ink Camp. Although the other party was stronger and the
Ancient Ink Camp couldn’t hold them back, it would be
daunting for them to defeat the Ancient Ink Camp rapidly and
get the Mark of an Immortal King.
There might be experts lurking in the surrounding areas. If they
couldn’t do so swiftly and the commotion caused on the star
was huge, it would be cumbersome if these experts arrived
before the battle was settled.
This might very well be the best opportunity for the Ancient
Ink Camp within the next 100 years.
Before clashing with the Endless Immortal Army, who donned
suits of white destinable armor, Xu Zidong said to Wu Yu,
"Your movements are fleeting and you can break away from
here easier. Let us hold back the Endless Immortal Army while
you search for the Mark of an Immortal King. What do you
think?"
This was indeed a great plan. Now they had to keep a low
profile. Considering that they couldn’t defeat their opponents,
holding them back might be a great plan too.
Therefore, Wu Yu broke away from the team abruptly. First, he
used the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth to shrink his
body to the smallest possible. Immediately after, he used
Fulgurating Shadows of the Somersault Cloud to land behind
the immortal city.
Within the Ancient Ink Camp, Wu Yu wasn’t an eye-catching
figure. Therefore, what he just did had likely escaped the eyes
of the Endless Immortal Army, who was focused on Xu Zidong
and the rest.
Just as Wu Yu had left, the immortal lords from the Ancient
Ink Camp unleashed all their tricks above the immortal city as
they clashed with the dozen-plus members of the Endless
Immortal Army.
The commotion of the battle was huge as the autonomous realm
powers shrouded almost the entire immortal city. Autonomous
realm powers from over 20 immortal lords were full of
destruction, sinking the entire immortal city into absolute
disarray. In the first instance, the immortal city was heavily
damaged. Although the city walls and buildings were protected
by immortal designs, it was still inevitable that they crumbled
and debris was swirling around under the destruction of the
autonomous realm powers.
Now that Wu Yu had shrunk his body, he could move rapidly
at ease. He knew it wouldn’t be easy for Xu Zidong and the rest
to hold their ground; therefore, he accelerated and dived into
the immortal city immediately.
With his Eyes of Fire and Gold, he surveyed the area. At the
same time, he protected himself with the fifth tier of the
Somersault Cloud, the Sky Cloud Realm, similar to an
immortal lord with his autonomous realm power. The Sky
Cloud Realm was like a lesser realm wrapping around him with
an external layer with similar properties as cotton. When the
boundless autonomous realm powers struck on Wu Yu, they
were reflected or dissipated to the surroundings.
With the Sky Cloud Realm and the Eyes of Fire and Gold, Wu
Yu was highly effective. He moved around the city swiftly,
searching for any suspicious locations. When found one, he
would just destroy it directly with brute strength.
"Where is the Mark of an Immortal King?"
The immortal city was constantly being destroyed. Even if Wu
Yu held back, the city would still be damaged by the ongoing
battles.
Xu Zidong and the rest had pinned all their hopes on Wu Yu,
making him feel the stress. He knew it wasn’t easy for them to
have the luck they had today.
"If only I could use my 100,000 doppelgangers to search. In the
immortal city, their battles were everywhere. With their
autonomous realm powers filling the space, my doppelgangers
would likely not even last a breath of time."
Within the immortal city, there were also numerous large
palaces, buildings, and corners. It was really difficult to find the
Mark of an Immortal King, which Wu Yu had no information
about.
Wu Yu gave his all while sweeping and searching through the
immortal city like a frenzied man. Since this was a Great Void
Immortal Treasure, there had to be something extraordinary
about it.
At the very least, it couldn’t be destroyed!
When Wu Yu eventually flattened all the buildings, he would
be able to find the Mark of an Immortal King!
At this point, every second counted. Time truly waited for no
one.
Once the Ancient Ink Camp was overwhelmed and injuries or
even deaths occured, the losses wouldn’t justify the gains.
Wu Yu stole a few more glances. The Ancient Ink Camp
specialized in team battles and had a battle formation as their
foundation. Their chemistry and collaboration was great.
However, the Endless Immortal Army, being an army of the
sky palaces, specialized in the same aspect. When the two battle
formations clashed, it was like watching two superpowered
titanic beasts clashing in the sky.
"Mark of an Immortal King, Mark of an Immortal King...."
As time passed, Wu Yu was getting restless. The immortal city
was colossal. If he was alone, no matter how fast he was, it
would be daunting to be successful if he was unlucky or he
couldn’t see how the Mark of an Immortal King was hidden.
"Wu Yu, hurry up!"
After searching for roughly 15 minutes in vain, Xu Zidong was
getting a little anxious and started rushing Wu Yu.
"I’ll do my best!"
It was undoubtedly difficult to find the Mark of an Immortal
King within the immortal city.
Wu Yu accelerated across the city, withstanding attacks with
his Sky Cloud Realm while scanning around with his Eyes of
Fire and Gold!
"Hold it there!"
Wu Yu had caused quite a commotion within the immortal city.
In the end, he was discovered by the Endless Immortal Army.
At this point, one soldier separated from the battle formation of
the Endless Immortal Army to deal with Wu Yu and to also
hinder Wu Yu from searching for the Mark of an Immortal
King.
However, with one soldier separated, the pressure on the
Ancient Ink Camp was also relieved slightly. Perhaps they
could hold on for a longer period.
The Endless Immortal Soldier donned the suit of destinable
immortal armor and had a destinable immortal spear as a
weapon. He descended before Wu Yu like a bolt of silver
lightning.
"Power of a realm!"
The soldier didn’t hesitate or say a word before crashing
towards Wu Yu with his autonomous realm power. With his
body shrunk to the limit, Wu Yu’s power had also decreased to
the lowest extent. If he were to clash with the soldier now, he
wouldn’t have an advantage.
Therefore, before the autonomous realm power reached him, he
shifted and came to the other end with Fulgurating Shadows to
continue his search for the Mark of an Immortal King!
"You can’t escape!"
The Endless Immortal Soldier was surprised. Wu Yu had to
find the Mark of an Immortal King as soon as he could. The
quicker he moved, the greater the commotion he caused. The
soldier still locked on to Wu Yu quickly and started chasing.
After dodging a few times, Wu Yu realized the attacks from the
pursuer were affecting his efficiency! Therefore, he made a
decision to first defeat this opponent, who was roughly the
equivalent of a 5-realm immortal lord.
For Wu Yu, a 5-realm immortal lord was really strong!
Or at the very least, he was still stronger than Yun Mo.
Fortunately, he now had eight immortal dao marks and his
Dragon and Elephant Prajna Buddha Body had reached perfect
mastery.
"Transform!"
Before the eyes of that Endless Immortal Soldier, the initial
minute existence expanded explosively! From less than two
inches in size, Wu Yu became a giant in a split second! The
might of his physical body had returned to him.
In his hands were the Floating Dreams Pagoda and the Floating
Dreams Sword!
"So you are capable of this too!" That Endless Immortal Soldier
wasn’t worried and scoffed, "A meagre xuan immortal still
dares to enter the Endless River of Stars? This is outright
underestimating our Endless Immortal Army!"

As he spoke, he expanded his autonomous realm power

towards Wu Yu. It was a realm dazzled with brilliant light, and
those rays of light were shot towards Wu Yu like countless
blades.
"Sky Cloud Realm!"
At this point, the Somersault Cloud had exceeded the extent of
the Immortal Cloud Field to become a realm of its own. One
could say that the current Sky Cloud Realm was similar to one’s
autonomous realm in terms of power and appearance. In fact,
others would mistake Wu Yu to be at the Immortal Lord Realm
because of it.
The Sky Cloud Realm expanded, deflected the silverish world,
and ended up suppressing Wu Yu’s opponent. Endless clouds
enveloped the silver rays of light. The huge realm was filled
with clouds, pouring down from the sky with the ferocity of
waves while suppressing Wu Yu’s opponent!
"You are an immortal lord too!"
The soldier’s eyes widened in disbelief. From the beginning, he
had not felt any autonomous realm power from Wu Yu.
"Sword-energy, burst!"
The Endless Immortal Soldier released a last-ditch attack. He
didn’t think he would lose to Wu Yu. When his autonomous
realm was pushed back, he compressed the realm and
materialized it as a colossal sword with exceptional sharpness.
As such, he would be able to tear through Wu Yu’s Sky Cloud
Realm easily and split Wu Yu into two halves!
"I’ll break your autonomous realm!"
He was pretty confident in his strength.
"Wishful thinking!"
Both parties were competing for the Mark of an Immortal King.
Since they weren’t at the level where one party wanted the other
party to perish, this could be said as a fair contest!
Wu Yu threw the Floating Dreams Pagoda towards the sky, and
its might enveloped the entire field immediately.
"Time Warp!"
Triggering the time immortal design with his boundless
immortal energy, the might of Time Warp covered the entire
area instantly. The Sky Cloud Realm and the enemy were both
trapped within time disorder. However, Wu Yu wasn’t affected
by it.
Weng!
All of a sudden, that silver, colossal sword was contorted by
time at all parts. The compressed and materialized sword
gradually collapsed.
"How is this possible!?" That Endless Immortal Soldier
couldn’t believe his eyes. He couldn’t understand the power of
Wu Yu’s destinable immortal treasure!
No matter how unwilling he was to believe it, Wu Yu had made
his way through the Sky Cloud Realm and directed the Sky
Cloud Realm to hold that soldier down. Wu Yu left three strikes
through his body with the Floating Dreams Sword. If Wu Yu
had wanted to kill him, he would have succeeded by now.
"Urgh!"
The other party fell and the raging sword qi was still rampaging
in his body, attacking his five organs and six viscerals. At this
point, he could only watch Wu Yu leaving while unable to do
anything. Wu Yu would be able to continue his search, while
his defeat would leave him immobilized until he was able to
expel the destruction caused by Wu Yu’s Floating Dreams
Sword!
"Great!"
Seeing that Wu Yu had defeated his opponent, Xu Zidong and
the rest heaved sighs of relief. It wasn’t easy for them to target
a specific individual in the battle formation. However, if one of
them fell out of sync, it would be easier. Not only was Wu Yu
able to continue his search for the Mark of an Immortal King,
but he was also able to reduce the strength of the other party!
Moving on, Wu Yu could search for the Mark of an Immortal
King at full steam!
Wu Yu was anxious too. Despite searching for so long, he
didn’t find any signs of it. Indeed, a Mark of an Immortal King
wasn’t easy to get a hold of!
What was more troublesome was that Wu Yu could see
numerous immortal lords charging over like maniacs when he
looked up at the sky
The appearance of the immortal city created a huge
disturbance, and it was still releasing intense light. The
immortal city also stood out like a "handle" on the star, making
it even more apparent in the vicinity.
Having 100 million immortal lords entering the Endless River
of Stars, there were bound to be a large number of immortal
lords in the vicinity of the star. Once such a transformation
happened in this place, they would likely be alarmed.
Immediately after, they would rush here as though their lives
were at stake.
Wu Yu couldn’t find the Mark of an Immortal King and time
was slipping away. Finally, the first batch of outsiders \ arrived.
Their arrival also cast a shadow over the hearts of Xu Zidong
and the others.
They had missed the best opportunity.
Wu Yu took a closer look and found that the newly arrived
experts weren’t too strong. There were two batches of them,
and each batch wasn’t any weaker than the Ancient Ink Camp.
They were also in groups and squads.
Naturally, the chemistry and coordination between their teams
might not be as great as that of the Ancient Ink Camp.
Wu Yu believed there was most likely a time limit to the
Endless Immortal Army guarding the Mark of an Immortal
King. They couldn’t possibly be expected to defeat all
opponents. Instead, they were likely tasked to last for a certain
amount of time, ensuring that the Mark of an Immortal King
wasn’t discovered. Only then would they be credited or the
Mark of an Immortal King might even become theirs.
As for how long they had to last, Wu Yu didn’t know.
Regardless, Wu Yu believed that the immortal city would
definitely vanish when that moment arrived.
With new competitors, the situation became more pressing. Xu
Zidong could see that the other parties were trying to enter the
immortal city while his team were holding back the Endless
Immortal Army. The Ancient Ink Camp wasn’t that silly.
"Retreat!"
Xu Zidong led the Ancient Ink Camp away from battle and
avoided the edge of the Endless Immortal Army. Following
which, the Ancient Ink Camp scattered before charging
towards the immortal city too.
This time, it was complete chaos.
"Maintain the formation and watch one another’s backs!"
Even when scattered, the positions they took could still cover
for one another. Moreover, they were basically in groups of
two.
As for Wu Yu, he had an exceptional dodging ability, so they
weren’t worried about him.
The Endless Immortal Army had also rushed into the immortal
city. However, they weren’t going to just target the Ancient Ink
Camp. This was because there were others who had also
entered the city. Furthermore, from the flashes of light of the
surrounding stars, there were clearly more people attracted to
this place.
"Get lost right now! The Mark of an Immortal King is mine!"
The slightly stronger people could no longer hold back their
killing desires.
Chaos was everywhere.
All Wu Yu could do now was shrink himself to the smallest
with the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth. Now he
was focused on moving around with Fulgurating Shadows in
search for the Mark of an Immortal King while ensuring he
wouldn’t be dragged into battles with others.
The situation was chaotic and the immortals were bombarding
the area. Their eyes were red and many had started close-
combat carnage. The disturbances were huge and the situation
had spiralled out of control. There were even several Endless
Immortal Soldiers who were killed in the crossfire!
Whoever killed Endless Immortal Soldiers in the Endless River
of Stars would be recorded and retribution would follow
subsequently. Therefore, most people wouldn’t attempt to kill
a member of the Endless Immortal Army. Those that did were
probably frenzied from excitement.
"It’s time to take a risk!"
With more and more people arriving, even the Endless
Immortal Army was overwhelmed. Wu Yu could feel that his
chances were diminishing. After all, in terms of numbers, Wu
Yu’s side didn’t have an advantage.
"Unshackled Doppelganger!"
This time, he summoned 100,000 doppelgangers at the same
time. In a split second, 100,000 Wu Yus almost filled the entire
immortal city and dived straight into the search for the Mark of
an Immortal King.
"What the hell are these?"
Using such a high-profile trick, Wu Yu naturally drew public
anger. Everyone could see themselves surrounded by Wu Yu’s
doppelgangers, and they were all searching for the same Mark
of an Immortal King.
100,000 clones formed a majestic scene!
Other than the Ancient Ink Camp, most of them turned their
focus to massacring Wu Yu’s doppelgangers. Within a short
period, Wu Yu’s doppelgangers were being decimated at a rate
of over a thousand per breath of time!
However, it didn’t matter. At the very least, Wu Yu would have
vision that no one else had within the short period.
This was his last-ditch attempt.
"Mark of an Immortal King, where are you?" His
doppelgangers entered various buildings in the immortal city.
Time was passing and his doppelgangers were dwindling. Even
if they chose to hide, they would be reduced to dust together
with the buildings and structures when the immortal lords
unleashed their autonomous realm powers.
"This is...!"
All of a sudden, one of Wu Yu’s doppelgangers found
something that resembled a jade seal on the table of a small
room.
He picked it up immediately and found nothing special about
it. However, when he examined it closely, he could sense
something mysterious about it. Perhaps in the Great Void
Realm, understanding a rule was about returning to the basics!
Perhaps this was the Mark of an Immortal King, but Wu Yu
couldn’t be certain.
Wu Yu’s main body rushed to the place immediately!
Just as he was about to leave with the jade seal, an immortal
dashed in. At that instant, Wu Yu’s doppelganger was slain and
he naturally lost the item.
"Haha!" Wu Yu looked in the direction and saw an immortal
lord charging out of the small house, about to flee.
The item that might possibly be the Mark of an Immortal King
was taken by him! This immortal was strong and extremely
acute. If Wu Yu was right, he was an 8-realm immortal lord!
He had just arrived, but he had located the Mark of an Immortal
King at the first instant. He definitely had some unique trick up
his sleeve!
By now, Wu Yu’s doppelgangers were almost cleaned off
completely. In less than ten breaths of time, none of them were
left.
When that immortal was about to leave, Wu Yu shouted, "The
Mark of an Immortal King is in his hands!" If Wu Yu allowed
him to escape, his chances would be zero.
"Feng Li Immortal Lord!"
Someone recognized him.
Seeing how elated he was and that he was preparing to escape,
the crowd knew that the Mark of an Immortal King was in his
hands.
All of a sudden, everyone allied together. Other than the
Endless Immortal Army, all of them darted out of the immortal
city and pursued the Feng Li Immortal Lord!
Xu Zidong and the rest also gave chase. They were frustrated,
but there was nothing they could do. This was about luck as
much as about their strength. They had failed to secure the
Mark of an Immortal King within a short time, and getting it
subsequently would be extremely difficult.
A crowd of people pursued one person as they flew into the
sky!
Wu Yu naturally felt indignant! It was almost in his hands, and
once he got it into the Floating Dreams Pagoda, no one would
be getting it away from him!
If the other party wasn’t strong, Wu Yu had a way to intercept
him. However, the one that appeared out of nowhere to snatch
it from him was an 8-realm immortal lord. There was a good
chance, and he had been lurking for some time, waiting for the
instant to grab the Mark of an Immortal King and escape in the
first instant. Undoubtedly, he was experienced.
Wu Yu dashed to the front of the Feng Li Immortal Lord while
the rest of the people were chasing. In terms of speed, Wu Yu
wasn’t any slower.
"Get lost!"
However, he had boundless strength. As he waved his arm,
autonomous realm power carried strong winds that swept Wu
Yu away. When Wu Yu wanted to locate him in the endless
universe, he had vanished from sight without a trace!
The rest of the immortals had also lost him. The Feng Li
Immortal Lord specialized in speed, so it was to be expected
that Xu Zidong and the rest couldn’t catch up to him. In other
words, it was almost certain that the Mark of an Immortal King
of unknown tier had fallen into his hands.
And now, the glow on the star dissipated and the immortal city
sank into the ground. The mission for the dozen-plus Endless
Immortal Soldiers could be said to have ended in failure.
They were feeling frustrated. Wu Yu and the rest were feeling
the same, and Wu Yu met up with the rest of the Ancient Ink
Camp.
Xu Zidong said, "Let’s not be discouraged. To have this
encounter and opportunity to get a Mark of an Immortal King
on the first day, we are doing pretty well. However, the
disturbances from the appearance of the immortal city were too
huge. It’s too difficult for us to get it. Moving forward, let’s
continue to work hard!"
Yang Wenlan said, "Yeah, let’s get over it. After all, this was
most likely the first Mark of an Immortal King. We just weren’t
lucky enough to get it!"
The group couldn’t help but be disappointed. After all, they
were so close to getting the Mark of an Immortal King. A loss
was still a loss. Moreover, being so close to success still made
this a bitter experience.
Wu Yu felt helpless. He was probably just a step away.
"Don’t get too anxious now. The Mark of an Immortal King
won’t be easy to find. Perhaps we might still experience loss
many more times. Now isn’t the time for us to be frustrated and
restless." Xu Zidong patted Wu Yu’s shoulders as he spoke.
"Yeah."
"Everyone is tired. Let’s find a place to recuperate before
continuing our journey. We will be spending the next 100 years
in the Endless River of Stars. We will definitely have more
opportunities. This is just the first year, don’t assume this is the
end."
"Yes!"
They were still great at finding morale. Soon, they settled down
in another star. This star was also smaller than the previous.
The team focused on recuperating and recovering to their peak
conditions before heading out to search again, starting from the
star they were on.
"If we can find signs of a Mark of an Immortal King on this
star, I will give up my surname! Haha! We can’t be that lucky."
As Wu Xiao was searching, he joked about it.
He thought perhaps their luck would be off the charts if he said
so.
In the end, they found nothing. The chances of finding two stars
with a Mark of an Immortal King consecutively was
insignificant.
As they progressed, they started realizing how fortunate they
were when the first star they searched had a Mark of an
Immortal King.
This was because in the two years that they searched star after
star, they did encounter numerous immortal lords. Most of them
left in a jiffy, but they had yet to find any signs of a Mark of an
Immortal King.
They did find signs of battles or disturbances, suggesting that
Marks of an Immortal King had been taken away. In some
places, there were even corpses. These corpses were most likely
left behind within the last one to two years.
The Endless River of Stars was boundless, with millions of
stars. Those that they visited in the first two years were only a
small proportion. They had to move around at a quicker pace.
On a day of the third year, while they were moving off from a
star to another star, they suddenly sensed an incomparably huge
commotion happening on the star ahead of them.
That was a relatively huge, blue star!
At that moment, the star was still very far away, but they could
see a sea of blue fire in the center of it. It was a crystal-like sea
of fire that tumbled and roiled. And above this sea of fire, there
were many immortal lords locked in battle!
The star was all barren and stark, full of nothing but rock. It
was impossible that such a brilliant sea of fire would be there.
A Mark of an Immortal King must have triggered such a
change!
And looking at the commotion at the sea of fire, it was likely
that the grade of the Mark of an Immortal King was fairly high!
This was also why they realized that it was uncommonly
crowded with fighters and searchers as they neared!
The blue star did not have a sea of fire at first; some searcher
must have triggered a mechanism that caused it to appear. If the
sea of fire was still burning and people were still fighting, it
suggested that the Mark of an Immortal King was still there and
not yet spirited away.
This was their second chance so far!
"Charge!"
The Ancient Ink Camp sped forward.
There were a full hundred immortal lords here. It could attract
many people, firstly because the commotion was extremely
flashy, and secondly because the sea of fire might have
appeared a few days ago already.
Amongst the 100 immortal lords, there were many experts, and
7-realm immortal lords like Xu Zidong could only be
considered mid-tier here. There were quite a few 8-realm
immortal lords, and even some 9-realm immortal lords. There
were a lot of people fighting above the sea of fire, which
suggested that there were even more people searching for the
Mark of an Immortal King within the sea of fire.
Seeing the situation, Xu Zidong immediately said, "This Mark
of an Immortal King must be of a fairly high grade. Everyone,
do not risk your lives. If the situation seems dire, immediately
withdraw. Given our strength, even if we get this Mark of an
Immortal King, it is likely that we will not be able to hold on to
it."
"That’s right. Take it as participation points. We’re here to
gamble. If it really lands in our hands, flee as fast as we can.
After all, Wu Yu’s escape technique is fairly incredible. If we
can get this Mark of an Immortal King, we can hide for the next
100 years and it will still be worth it." Qing Yuli laughed.
They were rather relaxed this time, because the sheer scale of
the fight had attracted many experts. They felt that their
chances were slim. Although they would fight for it, the highest
priority was to protect their lives. They would definitely not
engage in a fight to the death here.
Wu Yu thought it over. "I can cover my tracks during
movement and dedicate all my efforts to contesting it. After all,
no one recognizes me either, so I think I will split from you for
now. So that if I succeed, others will not eye you all."
They were naturally envious of Wu Yu’s size-changing and
escaping mystiques. They also believed in them. Actually, Xu
Zidong knew that even without them, Wu Yu could roam the
Endless River of Stars freely.
Therefore, he nodded. "Sure. Go do you. But stay safe."
They had already arrived in the sky above the sea of fire.
Actually, the number of battles was considered few, and
everyone plunged into the sea of fire to search. It was only a
few factions who wished to shoo away those who were just
arriving.
This blue fire was like some sort of immortal kernel. It was full
of energy, and other immortal lords would definitely have to
use their autonomous realm power to protect themselves.
Surprisingly, it was Wu Yu’s body who could slip in with ease.
"You lot! Scram! Don’t come here!" As the Ancient Ink Camp
neared, they saw a bald and big-chested 8-realm immortal lord
appear near them, threatening Xu Zidong and the others.
Wu Yu had already vanished from their side.
"And if we come here?" Xu Zidong said.
"Then you will all die! This is the place we found! You think
your measly strength gives you a shot? Such a high tier Mark
of an Immortal King... you couldn’t protect it even if you got
it. I will give you three breaths of time. If you don’t leave, I’m
going to start killing!"
He also had a few searchers with him, who were clearly his
allies. He was warning them now. If he actually started fighting,
it was likely that at least a few of the Ancient Ink Camp
members would die.
"We will go."
Xu Zidong was frustrated and could only retreat. It seemed like
this Mark of an Immortal King was not theirs to claim. There
were a few factions searching here, but only because they were
fairly equal in strength and had reached a balance. Those who
were too weak were not even qualified to join the contest.
Of course, at this time, Wu Yu had already shrunk himself to
the smallest size with the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and
Earth and thrown himself into the sea of fire! He had no
autonomous realm power about him and therefore was
completely stealthy. No one even noticed him.
But this sea of fire was too big. Searching for a Mark of an
Immortal King, and a high-grade one at that, would definitely
be something special. How difficult would it be?
There were no Endless Immortal Soldiers here. They might
have already been defeated.
Xu Zidong and the others could only watch from afar.
"Can Wu Yu succeed?" Yang Wenlan asked.
"How could he?" Ye Yi shook his head. "I reckon there are at
least 10 9-realm immortal lords inside, and more will definitely
come."
"This sea of fire is too vast. With such a fire burning, his clones
cannot be deployed. Therefore, the chances are close to none.
But there is no fear for his life. He can escape pretty quickly,"
Xu Zidong said.
It was not that they did not believe in Wu Yu, but that they
believed in the difficulty of the situation. Wu Yu had run circles
inside for half a day but still did not find the Mark of an
Immortal King. What he did find, however, was the bodies of
two freshly killed immortal lords. These two bodies were 7-
realm immortal lords, a man and a woman, and they looked
freshly killed. Clearly, those below 8-realm immortal lord level
were not even qualified to fight here.
They were already dead and their immortal spirits had
dissipated. Wu Yu had not devoured for some time now. Just
by himself, he would not have been able to defeat this level of
immortal lord.
He paused his search for the Mark of an Immortal King and
began to devour these two bodies. He immediately converted
their immortal dao essences, making them his own!
The power of two 7-realm immortal lords was mind-blowing,
especially their autonomous realm power. Wu Yu first stored
the immortal spirit world nuclei within his body, in no hurry to
digest it. This was the core power of the Immortal Lord Realm.
If he absorbed it at this time, his body might very well explode.
But the insights and dao of the two immortal lords, as well as
their memories, were all Wu Yu’s now. He knew their entire
lives, knew how they had died, and who they had died to. It was
a coincidence that it had been that baldie immortal lord who
had bullied Xu Zidong and the others off. These two had heard
the warnings and then snuck in, inciting their anger.
There were probably many such cases.
Wu Yu was not afraid of them. He continued to go deeper,
searching.
Just at this time, an Immortal Message Talisman came from Xu
Zidong, bidding Wu Yu quickly retreat. Wu Yu himself felt a
new and mighty pressure. Evidently, many experts had just
arrived. He hurriedly prepared to retreat for a look.
From within the sea of fire, he had already determined the
position of Xu Zidong and the others. He appeared behind them
and suddenly heard a thunderous voice booming across the star.
"Everyone below, listen up. This star is claimed by the eternal
phoenix tribe. We’ll give you 10 breaths of time. If you do not
leave the sea of fire within 10 breaths of time, we will kill all
without consideration!”
Wu Yu saw it!
There were hundreds of eternal phoenixes above the sea of fire.
They were in their phoenix forms now, flying across the entire
sky! It was as if a few hundred immortal lord-level mystical
dragons had claimed the skies. It was a majestic sight!
Of these hundreds of nine-colored, flame-wreathed, ice-
sheathed, or lightning-covered eternal phoenixes, there were at
least a few dozen who were 9-realm immortal lord level! They
were a force with unparalleled might. Therefore, besides a
special few, the rest would all have to give way for them.
Clearly, no one felt that they could go up against a few hundred
eternal phoenixes!
They too had been attracted here by the sea of fire.
They had only given 10 breaths of time, then they would start
killing, no questions asked. Given their strength, they could
definitely make good on their threat!
"The eternal phoenix tribe!"
Those in the sea of fire must have already seen the mighty
eternal phoenix contingent in the Sublime Gracious Divine
Region. Besides, there was even the Provenance Phoenix
Empress’s daughter, the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord. They
could not beat them, nor afford to offend them.
Therefore, no matter how unsatisfied or angry they were, many
still rose from the sea of fire at this time, choosing their lives.
Even the baldie from before hung his head and left the sea of
fire quietly with his allies.
"Those that report the identity of any who have yet to quit the
sea of fire will be rewarded!" At this time, Wu Yu heard a
familiar voice. He felt that he was dreaming. Wasn’t that
Nangong Wei’s voice....
He looked towards the heart of the eternal phoenix contingent.
He saw that there was a small-sized eternal phoenix who had
the most regal bearing in the group. Even her phoenix form
looked exactly like Nangong Wei’s. Every last feather was the
same as what Wu Yu recalled, only she was completely
different in terms of quality.
Who was she?
10 breaths of time were up.
She said indifferently, "This is your chance. Go. Any who have
yet to leave, cut them down immediately."
About half of the eternal phoenixes immediately dived into the
sea of fire. There were indeed some who had been unwilling to
leave. They were doomed.
"Well then, Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord, we will be leaving
first," someone said.
The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord shook her head. "Before I
get the Mark of an Immortal King, no one is allowed to leave.
Who knows if you have already gotten the Mark of an Immortal
King."
Her eyes swept past all of them, including the Ancient Ink
Camp.
And then the remaining eternal phoenixes flew up, surrounding
them.
Xu Zidong said, "No worries. We don’t even have a Mark of
an Immortal King, and we did not even go in. It’s fine even if
she searches." He was a little cowed by the eternal phoenix
tribe, and the only thing on his mind was getting away.
The eternal phoenix tribe had everything under their control,
and the others were removed from the contest for the Mark of
an Immortal King.
They were bullies, but no one dared to protest.
"Anyone who gets the Mark of an Immortal King, hand it over
immediately, or there will be killing." The Dancing Flame
Phoenix Lord again swept her gaze across them.
The congregation from the eternal phoenix tribe was dictatorial
and domineering.
And now, with the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord at the core,
the team sent numerous experts into the sea of fire to search for
the Mark of an Immortal King while also sending other experts
to limit the movements of the people nearby. Even those like
the Ancient Ink Camp, who had just arrived and had yet to enter
the sea of blue fire, were restricted from leaving.
Around the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord, several 9-realm
immortal lords stood guard at all times.
While the majority of those from the eternal phoenix tribe were
searching for the Mark of an Immortal King, the Dancing
Flame Phoenix Lord led the other experts to search the other
immortal lords around the sea of blue fire.
They first went towards the baldie immortal lord that had
bullied the Ancient Ink Camp and others previously. Perhaps
they assumed that this man would be the most cumbersome.
Beside the classy, stunning, domineering, and exceptional
Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord, the other elite eternal phoenixes
were fearsome as well. Among them was a white phoenix
ablaze in white flames. He said to the baldie immortal lord,
"Open your Sumeru Pouch for us to search."
The baldie immortal lord was already feeling bottled up from
being trapped here and not allowed to leave. When he heard the
demand, he couldn’t control his anger and said, "You guys
might be strong, but you can’t humiliate us like this! One’s
Sumeru Pouch holds the secrets of each immortal. How could
we possibly just let you comb through it?"
The snow-white phoenix scoffed, "First, we are just going to
see if you are holding on to a Mark of an Immortal King! We
aren’t interested in your other trash. Second, you do have the
rights to protect your secrets. However, a dead man holds no
secrets. Your Sumeru Pouch would also belong to others then."
What he was saying was they were just interested in the Mark
of an Immortal King. If one denied their demands, he could die
right away.
That baldie immortal lord wasn’t going to be pushed over.
Facing a death threat, he was infuriated and tried to rally the
crowd. "Everyone, the eternal phoenix tribe has gone too far!
He’s not seeing us as humans at all! Once we team up, let’s see
if they still dare...."
Before he could finish his words, the Dancing Flame Phoenix
Lord snorted. The next instant, several 9-realm immortal lords
around her struck at the same time. These were all phoenix
immortal beasts that had long prepared to deal a fatal blow.
Various autonomous realm powers and Natural Mystiques
bombarded the baldie immortal lord incessantly. The
companions of the baldie immortal lord were astonished and
retreated in fear. All they could do was watch the baldie
immortal lord be reduced to ashes by sheer firepower in a blink.
Immediately after, the Sumeru Pouch of the baldie immortal
lord fell into the hands of the snow-white phoenix. He opened
it and poured everything in it out towards the sea of fire below
him. All the immortal medicines, immortal essences, and the
rest of his things were burnt to ashes, while his destinable
immortal treasure sank into the depths of the fire. No one from
the eternal phoenix tribe seemed interested in them.
The White Sun Immortal Lord smirked and said, "Everyone, as
you can see. We aren’t interested in anything in your Sumeru
Pouches other than the Mark of an Immortal King. If you still
insist on not letting us check, this fool is an example of your
outcome!"
Punishing an individual to serve as a warning to all others! This
was an effective move.
Instantly, the crowd went silent from fear and didn’t dare to
move an inch. The eternal phoenix tribe adopted a two-pronged
approach. On one end, they continued their inspection to round
up any Mark of an Immortal King. On the other end, they
combed the sea of fire for any findings.
"Everyone, rest assured. We will follow the rules in our actions.
We are only interested in the Mark of an Immortal King found
in the sea of fire. Any other Marks of an Immortal King that
you guys discovered in other places, we won’t take them," said
the White Sun Immortal Lord with a smile.
After which, he pointed to a 9-realm immortal lord and said,
"We will start with you."
Although this was humiliating, it wouldn’t be life threatening.
Moreover, one could leave after getting searched. Therefore,
the 9-realm immortal lord was decisive and retrieved his
storage treasure for the other party to see. If there were any
destinable immortal treasure that had interior spaces like the
Floating Dreams Pagoda, they wouldn’t escape the eyes of
those in the Immortal Lord Realm, who had extremely keen
spatial awareness. The eternal phoenix tribe would also search
these treasures, ensuring that no one could possibly be hiding a
Mark of an Immortal King.
This left Wu Yu worrying if they would find the Full Moon of
Nanshan and Ye Xixi when they searched him.
"Alright, you may leave." The White Sun Immortal Lord had
just finished searching the first person.
"I’ll wait for my friend." That 9-realm immortal lord wasn’t
pleased at all and had definitely marked down this humiliation.
"In that case, get all your friends here quickly."
The White Sun Immortal Lord was searching at the forefront,
while the graceful Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord was hidden
among the experts. After all, she was still young and just a 7-
realm immortal lord. There was always a worry that someone
might hold her hostage.
Regardless, anyone would know that she was the absolute core
of this team.
Moving forward, due to the death of the baldie immortal lord,
no one dared to resist or attempt to flee.
The eternal phoenix tribe kept to their promise as well and only
focused on looking for the Mark of an Immortal King. At the
moment, there wasn’t any incident where they tried to rob
someone of a Mark of an Immortal King that wasn’t obtained
from the sea of blue fire.
Time passed, and as it went, the Ancient Ink Camp would
eventually be searched. The rest wouldn’t worry, as they didn’t
have any Mark of an Immortal King. However, Wu Yu had lots
of secrets on him. It was especially so if the other party were to
search the Floating Dreams Pagoda. They would definitely be
able to spot the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi!
Perhaps they wouldn’t care. However, it was apparent that Wu
Yu had brought them in against the rules. If they wanted to
interfere, it would be burdensome.
Regardless, Wu Yu wasn’t feeling pleased. Previously, the
eternal phoenix tribe had taken a count of the number of people
around. If Wu Yu escaped with the Somersault Cloud, the
Ancient Ink Camp would definitely be affected.
The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord, who was an identical copy
of Nangong Wei, was gradually approaching where Wu Yu
was. Although she was in her phoenix form, her expressions,
her voice, and intonations were exactly the same. Even her gaze
was the same. Wu Yu couldn’t possibly not be skeptical of her
relationship with Nangong Wei.
Obviously, he also knew that she definitely couldn’t be
Nangong Wei. She was definitely still in the mortal domain and
wouldn’t be here.
Even if she had ascended to the sky palaces and entered the
eternal phoenix tribe, she definitely wouldn’t be a 7-realm
immortal lord or the youngest daughter of the Provenance
Phoenix Empress, who had been around the sky palaces for
hundreds of thousands of years.
Although Wu Yu was feeling frustrated, he knew it was only a
matter of time before he was searched.
The Ancient Ink Camp and him were the last batch of people
who would be searched.
After all, they were relatively far from the sea of fire to begin
with.
At this moment, the group of phoenixes flew before the Ancient
Ink Camp. When the White Sun Immortal Lord came before
Xu Zidong, he looked down on Wu Yu and the rest with the
demeanor of an immortal beast.
Xu Zidong greeted them respectfully. "Immortal beasts, we
have just arrived at this place and didn’t even dare to enter the
sea of blue fire. I guess we won’t have to be searched, right?
Everyone here could testify to my statement."
The White Sun Immortal Lord stared coldly at him and said,
"Keep those words and let’s begin."
Xu Zidong was helpless and could only offer his Sumeru Pouch
for the other party to search. What he had in it didn’t draw the
interest of the eternal phoenix tribe either. Therefore, everyone
in the Ancient Ink Camp was searched soon. After all, they
were the last few people.

Wu Yu was staring at the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord all

along. They were really too alike. However, he was certain she
wasn’t Nangong Wei. This was because she didn’t react on the
few occasions her eyes were on Wu Yu. Clearly, she didn’t
recognize Wu Yu.
If she was Nangong Wei, she would probably have spotted him
in the first instant and skinned him alive on the next.
"It’s your turn!" Wu Yu was the last person. The White Sun
Immortal Lord stared sternly at Wu Yu, and the flames around
his body were indeed scorching hot. An ordinary person
couldn’t stay before him for long.
"A xuan immortal and you dare to be here? How rare. Haha....
However, you are pretty capable to stay upright before me."
The rest of the eternal phoenix tribe broke into laughter.
Wu Yu could only hand over his Sumeru Pouch under
oppression. However, at this very moment, the Dancing Flame
Phoenix Lord turned to Wu Yu and said, "Wait a minute."
"Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord...." The White Sun Immortal
Lord felt a little strange over why she would abruptly interrupt.
Wu Yu was stumped too. Why would she be noticing him now?
The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord dispersed the crowd and flew
towards Wu Yu.
"Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord, don’t get too close to those
desperate people...." the White Sun Immortal Lord reminded
her. However, the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord didn’t heed his
advice.
The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord appeared before Wu Yu with
a puzzled face. From her eyes, Wu Yu could see complicated
emotions, but doubts were still predominant.
Wu Yu tensed up. Could she have something to do with
Nangong Wei?
Before Wu Yu’s eyes, she surprisingly reverted to her human
form! She was wearing a fiery-red dress that was bathed in
nine-colored flames. She had a noble and sacred demeanor that
nothing could encroach. Her precious bloodline brought out the
best of her beauty, making her an absolute beauty comparable
with Mo Yuji within the sky palaces. Even every eyelash of
hers was perfect.
The stress that Wu Yu felt now left him to the point of
suffocation and his mind was clouded. Facing such a familiar
person, it was hard to keep his emotions in check.
He saw her moving her red lips and asked, "Who are you? Why
does it seem like I have met you and even know you...."
Wu Yu was stumped and his mind stuttered. Why would she
say that? Didn’t this mean that she really had something to do
with Nangong Wei? However, how was this even possible?
What was going on?
Wu Yu was dumbstruck and couldn’t believe his eyes and ears.
How could the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord possibly have
seen him before?
Therefore, to err on the side of caution, he replied, "That’s
probably not possible. I’m just an ordinary immortal, while the
Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord is the precious daughter of the
Provenance Phoenix Empress. You grew up in the Immortal
Phoenix Imperial Realm and there’s no way you would have
met me before."
The White Sun Immortal Lord was first surprised but turned to
the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord and said, "Princess, you must
have mistaken him for someone. Why would you ever see
someone of such lowly beginnings?"
Still carrying a lost expression, the Dancing Flame Phoenix
Lord shook her head and said, "It can’t be. I definitely saw him
previously. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have an impression of him.
You! What’s your name?"
“How should I answer her?
“Who is she?”
Under such pressure, Wu Yu could only say his own name.
"Wu Yu...." She rolled his name around on her tongue, her eyes
still regarding him. Wu Yu could not speak incautiously. After
all, she was extremely powerful.
"But she cannot be her...." Wu Yu’s mind was reeling as well.
This was an impossible turn of events for him.
The White Sun Immortal Lord interrupted, "The Princess must
be remembering wrongly. How can such a class of person have
ever interacted with the august Princess? Why don’t I quickly
search him, and then we can continue searching for the Mark
of an Immortal King?"
"Shut up!" The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord frowned,
displeased. She seemed to be racking her brain. Screwing her
eyes up at Wu Yu, he felt even more uncomfortable, his hair
standing on end.
"I have it now!" The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord suddenly
showed a relieved expression. If such a thing remained niggling
at her, she would feel uneasy. Now that she had resolved it, it
felt like a weight off her mind.
But hearing this made Wu Yu feel like he was sitting on a carpet
of nails. What on earth did she "have?"
"Princess, please tell us," the White Sun Immortal Lord said
with a sheepish smile.
The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord was excited, and her attitude
towards the White Sun Immortal Lord improved considerably.
She said, "I recall it now. Do you remember that I used
Mother’s Ancestral Phoenix Nirvanic Venerable Art and
placed some companion phoenix eggs outside? I absorbed one
and completed a nirvana. For some reason, one companion
phoenix egg came to life and grew its own body; it even had its
own memories. Of course, it doesn’t matter. I still completed
the nirvana smoothly. After all, it was originally a part of my
body! It was not I who has seen him before, but that body."
She pointed at Wu Yu with a finger. The Dancing Flame
Phoenix Lord had strange moods. To her, puzzling this out was
enough to make her very happy.
The White Sun Immortal Lord laughed. "So that’s what it is!
Of course I know about it. It was even my elder brother who
personally went to that lesser Jambu Realm to bring your
companion phoenix egg out."
"Yes, yes. That egg. Of course, it’s no longer an egg now!" The
Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord had puzzled it out, and she was
delighted. She said, "To think that a mere few decades of
memory could actually enter my consciousness. How
fascinating. Well, what is a Xuan immortal like you to that body
of mine? I can’t recall that. Tell me?"
Everything that she had said was stored in Wu Yu’s mind, and
very clearly at that.
"Ancestral Phoenix Nirvanic Venerable Art, companion
phoenix egg, absorb, a portion of her body...."
The Full Moon of Nanshan gasped.
"That means Big Sister Nangong...." Ye Xixi was pale.
"No way...." The Full Moon of Nanshan’s jaw dropped. Of
course, he knew of Wu Yu’s past relationship with Nangong
Wei. Even if they could not become dao companions in the
future, they could still be friends. At least he would look out for
her. But now things had changed. And it was unclear how
things would settle as a result of this.
"Well, speak. Who are you to her? She is, after all, a part of me.
I’m still quite curious as to her memories and past." The
Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord stared at Wu Yu. She was starting
to feel a little unsettled again as Wu Yu continued to remain
silent.
What was Wu Yu feeling?
The words were choked in his heart.
He knew now what had transpired.
The Phoenix Supreme had found a phoenix egg in her lesser
realm that did not belong to her. That was the companion
phoenix egg the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord had placed at the
time of her birth. It was a part of her body. She had placed these
companion phoenix eggs in various lesser and greater realms to
grow. It was likely that they would absorb the power of those
lesser realms and mature. After they matured, the Dancing
Flame Phoenix Lord would gather these companion phoenix
eggs and use the Ancestral Phoenix Nirvanic Venerable Art to
assimilate them into her body, causing her to undergo a
transformation.
This should be the most refined cultivation method of the
eternal phoenix tribe. There were definitely not many people in
the eternal phoenix tribe who could do this.
But the Phoenix Supreme had brought the phoenix egg out of
the dwarf realm and then transformed it. It had been given a
soul and a spirit, a mind and a will. It then grew anew, and
Nangong Wei was brought into a new body. After that, as her
bloodline continued to elevate her, Nangong Wei’s features
also started to transform, growing closer and closer to the
Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord, until the two were exactly the
same.
But in the eyes of the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord, it did not
matter what the companion phoenix egg grew into. It was still
a part of her, and would not affect the Ancestral Phoenix
Nirvanic Venerable Art continuing. She had absorbed it for a
transformation. Besides, perhaps because Nangong Wei’s
consciousness had grown stronger, even nearing
immortalhood, the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord was forced to
quickly assimilate that companion phoenix egg before it
reached nirvana itself.
This was the truth of what had happened!
This meant that she was as good as dead, vanished from this
world.
She was a minuscule part of the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord
now, and gone.
She had once been reborn because of the Phoenix Supreme and
the phoenix egg. There was a hope for her to reach
immortalhood. But now, she had died as a phoenix egg. She
had lost everything....
This was no less than a nightmare for Wu Yu.
Was she dead?
Or was she still in the body? Somewhere in a limb, or an eye?
Or a feather on the body of the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord?
As these thoughts came to him, love and hate tussled within
him. He looked at the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord, a reckless
urge to find out his own answers and satiate his curiosity rising
within him. He started to tremble, his eyes turning red.
He did not know if she was currently looking at him, or if her
eyes were equally red.
In the mortal domain, Wu Yu had left her an immortal treasure,
and she was definitely very likely to reach immortalhood. But
this world was a strange place, and she had ended up as an
insignificant leaf on the vast tree that was the Dancing Flame
Phoenix Lord.
"I...." Hatred and a need to kill. Wu Yu looked at the Dancing
Flame Phoenix Lord, who had her exact image. His hatred and
killing intent were smothered, and now there was only sorrow,
sorrow for her.
Such unexpected twists were part of fate. Wu Yu would never
have thought that she would come to such an end.
Was the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord wrong? To her, she was
but cultivating. But this was not a simple matter of right or
wrong. Wu Yu only cared about the outcome, and the outcome
was that because of her existence, Nangong Wei might be dead.
It was Nangong Wei who had invaded her companion phoenix
egg.
But this was not important. What was important was how much
of Wu Yu’s past she made up. All the memories they had, the
unforgettable times. Wu Yu was not willing to see her come to
such a demise.

He was angry, bitter, he wanted to kill. But he knew that this

was not the time. He was wondering if he could bring her back
to life, removing her from the great tree.
"Speak, you. If you don’t, I will show you no mercy. I’ll take
you away and interrogate you at my leisure!" The Dancing
Flame Phoenix Lord was slightly irritated now. She was spoiled
and was used to getting her way. Not many people dared to
contradict her.
"Speak, Wu Yu." Xu Zidong also urged him. He sensed that
something was off about Wu Yu, but he knew that the Dancing
Flame Phoenix Lord’s patience was limited.
"In the mortal domain, I saved her life before." Wu Yu gritted
his teeth, choking out those words. His eyes looked at her
strangely, as he sought to cloak his killing intent.
"That simple? I want to know more. Follow me. Tell me a little
every day." The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord did not ask him,
but commanded him. Perhaps all of this, on top of her tone,
expressions, and movements, were very similar to Nangong
Wei. But Wu Yu knew that this was not her!
And now she was commanding Wu Yu to wait upon her.
"The others can go now," the White Sun Immortal Lord said
irritably. They were on an important mission. If possible, he
would prefer not to bring along a burden like Wu Yu.
"Wu Yu...?" Xu Zidong and the others were in a bind. Mainly,
they were unable to resist the might of the eternal phoenix tribe.
And Wu Yu could not either, because he would then implicate
Xu Zidong and the others.
His own mind was a mess. He was in an unstable state, and
might transform into the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast at
any moment. Reason told him that he should stay away from
the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord and think through this!
"What are you hemming and hawing for? Scram," the Dancing
Flame Phoenix Lord said to Xu Zidong and the others. Others
had already left after being checked.
"You all go ahead first." Wu Yu threw a look at Xu Zidong and
the others. He had finally calmed down. Once Xu Zidong and
the others left, he could leave at any time.
Xu Zidong naturally understood his look. He feigned an
unwilling parting from Wu Yu and then made their escape. The
White Sun Immortal Lord laughed loudly, mocking Wu Yu.
"Seems like your seniors don’t care that much about you at all."
Wu Yu remained silent.
The White Sun Immortal Lord was much more caustic, "Be
good and stay smart. Or don’t blame others if you die."
Wu Yu was just waiting for Xu Zidong and the others to get far
away.
As for the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord, she had lost interest
in him for the moment. Wu Yu’s eyes were locked on to her
back. His killing intent could not be hidden now.
Suddenly, there was a huge disturbance at the sea of fire. A
phoenix immortal beast surged out triumphantly, "Dancing
Flame Princess, the Mark of an Immortal King has been found!
It is an eighth-grade Mark!"
"Eighth-grade? Not bad!" Many of the phoenixes immediately
flocked over to see what an eighth-grade Mark of an Immortal
King looked like.
Soon, there were not many people by Wu Yu’s side. This was
the best chance to leave. He took a final look at the Dancing
Flame Phoenix Lord, in the crowd of people.
"In time to come, I will definitely come to find you...."
At that time, he would understand everything.
Wu Yu left swiftly with his Somersault Cloud and vanished
before their eyes.
Initially, the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord didn’t notice. This
was because everyone’s attention was drawn to the eighth-
grade Mark of an Immortal King.
Moreover, they wouldn’t believe a xuan immortal would dare
to flee before the members of the eternal phoenix tribe.
To their surprise, Wu Yu vanished from their sight abruptly.
Perhaps the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord would be furious if
she couldn’t find Wu Yu and might even give orders to slay
him.
That wasn’t what Wu Yu had intended. He met up with Xu
Zidong and the rest swiftly and left the place together.
"The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord is too dictatorial. It’s not
surprising that she’s infamous," said Yang Wenlan grudgingly.
"There’s nothing we can do. She’s the youngest daughter of the
Provenance Phoenix Empress after all. Her identity doesn’t
differ much from the daughter of Dhrtarastra or the son of the
Primeval Mighty Miracle God!" Wu Xiao grumbled
reluctantly.
"Searching one’s Sumeru Pouch is utmost humiliation.
However, if even those 9-realm immortal lords were searched,
small fries like us wouldn’t be spared."
They left the place where one could get into trouble swiftly.
"An eighth-grade Mark of an Immortal King? If we could get
it, we would have struck gold. It is said that with an eighth-
grade Mark of an Immortal King, even those with ordinary
talent have a chance of eventually reaching the eighth tier of
the Great Void Immortal Realm!"
"Yeah.... Who would have thought that such a precious Mark
of an Immortal King would appear now. There are so many
experts in the eternal phoenix tribe. They do have the strength
to deserve that eighth-grade grade Mark of an Immortal King."
After escaping from danger, they continued their initial plan to
search for a Mark of an Immortal King while still discussing
what happened previously.
"What’s the matter? Something bothering you?" Xu Zidong
could see that Wu Yu wasn’t himself.
Wu Yu nodded and said, "But it’s my personal matter."
"It’s best not to go against them for now. It’s too dangerous.
Obviously, the Endless River of Stars is huge and it won’t be
easy to encounter them again."
Wu Yu nodded.
He retrieved his Floating Dreams Pagoda and handed it over to
Xu Zidong. "Please help me take care of this for now. I’m going
to cultivate for some time to increase my strength. For the
upcoming period, I might have to miss out on searching for the
Mark of an Immortal King."
"Are you sure?" This was because they only had 100 years in
this place. Therefore, most people wouldn’t be willing to waste
time on cultivation, which would take up a long time.
Wu Yu was certain. Immediately after, he entered the Floating
Dreams Pagoda and entrusted the Floating Dreams Pagoda to
Xu Zidong. Basically, wherever they went, Wu Yu would still
be with them.
On the planet with the sea of blue fire, Wu Yu had devoured
two 7-realm immortal lords, so he was already at his limit.
Together with the restlessness he was experiencing, he needed
a silent space.
"Big Brother Yu...." When he entered, the Full Moon of
Nanshan and Ye Xixi were there for him.
Ye Xixi was on the verge of tears. Although she wasn’t close
to Nangong Wei, they were friends. Seeing her meet such an
outcome was hard for her to accept too.
The Full Moon of Nanshan patted his shoulder and comforted,
"Changes are hard to expect. My condolences."
Wu Yu took a deep breath and said, "Don’t worry. I’ve thought
about it. This is destiny, and it’s hard to change it. However,
even if she couldn’t change her destiny, I should also try to see
if there’s any possibility of reviving her. Perhaps as long as the
Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord is alive, the possibility remains.
Regardless, I’m certain I can’t drag this out for long. Otherwise,
she might forget everything."
The Full Moon of Nanshan said, "The only clue we have is the
Ancestral Phoenix Nirvanic Venerable Art. If we can get more
information on it, we might understand what has happened."
Wu Yu nodded and said, "I need to devour someone close to
the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord who is familiar with the
Ancestral Phoenix Nirvanic Venerable Art. The only
possibility of solving this is to understand it first!"
"The White Sun Immortal Lord might know about it, but he’s
a 9-realm immortal lord and is too strong. He’s almost at the
level of an immortal king," commented Ye Xixi.
"That’s not certain. There are definitely others who know about
it. Wu Yu can handle a 5-realm immortal lord currently. Once
he reaches the Immortal Lord Realm, there will be huge room
for improvement. At the very least, he will have endless time
within the Floating Dreams Pagoda.”
Wu Yu had prepared to enter cultivation. Regardless of how
important the Mark of an Immortal King was, it would seem to
him that the chances of finding one were slim if one was
searching for it aimlessly. Therefore, he might be better off
focusing on strengthening himself. Within the Endless River of
Stars, the conditions and environment were suitable.
He currently had two immortal spirit world nuclei that he had
yet to digest.
Currently, he could use the dao and knowledge of the two 7-
realm immortal lords, together with all the experts he had
devoured thus far, to tackle the last immortal dao mark. The
ninth immortal dao mark would definitely be really difficult,
but he was prepared.
The heart of the issue was: what reigned above the void and
time?
"The void is the core of everything, while time is the origin.
Time and space represent the world. What could be above the
world?"
Solving this key issue would take at least 30 years.
When he took the perspective of an elite immortal lord, this
question became even more difficult. This was because no one
could say with certainty that something reigned above time and
space; this was more profound and unpredictable.
However, what was interesting was that if he used his own
knowledge and experience, the answer was quickly apparent.
Moreover, he had deep faith in it. This made him decide that
this would be the ninth immortal dao mark that he wanted.
This represented his very core.
For him, this was even more profound than the Somersault
Cloud and the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
And he had just experienced this process.
The answer was the Dao of Devouring!
The other immortals weren’t aware because they didn’t know
the existence of it. Therefore, the experience of other immortals
wasn’t too helpful for him in identifying this immortal dao. In
the end, he had to rely on himself.
To Wu Yu, devouring was the most mysterious thing in this
world.
The core of devouring was conversion, converting what
belonged to others into his own. Moreover, the assimilation
was all-encompassing and merciless.
It was because of devouring that Wu Yu had achieved what he
had today, and it had benefited him greatly.
He had his own views on devouring. However, changing it into
an immortal dao mark would take a prolonged period for
honing and mastery. Wu Yu understood that even with
devouring, the path of cultivation would still be more difficult
than he had ever imagined. When he first started out,
completing an immortal dao mark took a short time. As he
delved into deeper daos, especially so for daos that reigned
above time and space, he would have to give his all, and this
was many times more complicated than mastering billions of
spirit designs.
Wu Yu had to understand all the details within the immortal
dao mark.
Fortunately, he had the Floating Dreams Pagoda. Otherwise,
the 100 years in the Endless River of Stars wouldn’t be
sufficient for him to master the Dao of Devouring.

Time passed, but the pain and hatred from Nangong Wei didn’t
vanish in the numerous recollections he had. On the contrary,
this made him angry, hostile, and restless. These feelings
contributed to his desire to devour. In fact, there were times he
had thoughts of devouring while looking at the Full Moon of
Nanshan and Ye Xixi.
This was extremely dangerous.
He could always remember the past, recalling how pure and
naive she was and her feelings towards him.
Wu Yu could also vividly recall why they had separated.
It was because of demons.
Because her mother was killed by a demon.
She shared an oath with her father to eliminate all demons and
return peace to the world.
However, looking back now, what were demons? Standing at
his current height, the reason why they had separated was so
laughable.
The times they had shared when they were young would still
come back to Wu Yu from time to time. His thoughts at those
times seemed laughable. However, thinking about them again,
she was no longer around. Wu Yu instantly felt as though his
heart was lacerated with a knife. His eyes turned bloodied and
he devolved into a restless wild beast.
The murderous intent supported him to constantly advance.
Even so, the Dao of Devouring still took him close to 300 years
before he achieved mastery! Fortunately, with the Floating
Dreams Pagoda, only three years had passed in real time.
When the black immortal dao mark fused into his immortal
spirit, Wu Yu realized that the urge to devour had become even
more intense!
All of a sudden, his devouring was no longer a primitive
instinct. In his mind, it became a dao that he was clear and
natural to. In fact, his Dao of Devouring and the immortal dao
mark that represented it could devour all other immortal dao
marks, fusing them together to a final mark.
The frightening aspect of his dao was that at its core, anything
could be consumed.
All the abilities of the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast,
including Return, Immolate, and Replicate, became even
clearer to him.
With the immortal dao mark of the Dao of Devouring fusing
into his immortal spirit, he discovered an additional ability of
the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast. This was something he
comprehended after forming the Dao of Devouring and
understanding devouring better. There was something else he
could have achieved.
He named this ability that resembled Immolate, Replicate, and
Return "Imparting!"
From this point, Wu Yu realized that he had gained a new
ability. This ability allowed him to choose the memories he had
devoured, including dao, perceptions, experiences, and
everything in between, replicate them, and impart them to
others. Naturally, when he imparted these to a third party, he
would retain them as well. Nonetheless, this would mean that
those around him would be able to receive chance opportunities
through his devouring.
For example, he could impart the dao and experiences that he
had devoured to the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi. This
would allow them to be like him, strengthening rapidly! This
was an unbelievable ability, Imparting!
Naturally, as they weren’t Heaven Devouring Titanic Beasts, it
would be more difficult for them to accept the Imparting.
Moreover, the volume and quantities couldn’t be too big or
frequent. Nonetheless, both of them had spirits that were
stronger than those of ordinary immortals and inherited elite
immortals’ legacies. Therefore, they probably had a higher
tolerance.
At the very least, the Full Moon of Nanshan, Ye Xixi, and Luo
Pin would benefit greatly because of this.
There were two white mice he could experiment on just next to
him. When Wu Yu mastered the Dao of Devouring, reached the
pinnacle of a 9-xuan immortal, and awakened the Imparting
ability, he opened his eyes. He looked frightening, and his eyes
were now locked on to the Full Moon of Nanshan.
The Full Moon of Nanshan was alarmed and asked, "What’s
the matter? Brat, did you become interested in my perfect
body?"
"That’s right! I’ll claim your chastity today."
Wu Yu stood up and walked towards him with a smirk.
"Oh, damn! How domineering! But I like it!"
The Sublime Gracious Divine Region became relatively
deserted after 100 million immortal lords left.
However, those who remained behind were all distinguished
guests of the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor.
Ordinary immortal emperors might not have the right to remain
here.
Only those like Dhrtarastra, the Provenance Phoenix Empress,
the Primeval Mighty Miracle God, the Ruling Sky Manifesting
Sage Great Emperor, the Culmination Honored Sage Great
Emperor, the 36 Heavenly Generals, and several others had the
status and standing to become the guests of the Eastern Sublime
Gracious Divine Emperor.
Naturally, the commander-in-chief of the Endless Immortal
Army, Marshal Tian You, was also among the ranks.
Currently, these immortal emperors were riding on clouds and
mist while hovering in the sky of the Sublime Gracious Divine
Region.
The ground of the Sublime Gracious Divine Region was no
longer made up of rocks and white jade. Instead, it was a stellar
diagram filled with brilliant stars. Across the stellar diagram
was a long river, and this was the reflection of what was in the
Great Void Immortal Path.
Along the river of stars were numerous red dots which possibly
represented the locations of Marks of an Immortal King. There
were also countless green dots which probably represented the
immortal lords.
Whenever a mechanism of a hidden location was triggered,
such as the appearance of an immortal city, the corresponding
red dot would start flashing and the image of the battlefield
would be reflected. One would instantly be able to see
numerous immortal lords, Endless Immortal Soldiers, all types
of puppets, traps, and battle formations clashing in battle. For
example, the happenings on that sea of blue fire where the
eternal phoenix tribe was were all shown clearly to the
immortal emperors that had stayed behind.
The Endless River of Stars was the main barracks of Marshal
Tian You. The whole realm was in his control, so showing areas
of it was not difficult.
Obviously, for contests involving fifth-grade Marks of an
Immortal King or below, the immortal emperors wouldn’t be
interested. Therefore, Marshal Tian You would often only
show areas where more people were concerned with.
As for the remaining time, the well-respected immortal
emperors and pillars of the entire Heavenly Domain were
chatting among themselves.
"At this point, the two highest quality Marks of an Immortal
King that have shown up have been eighth-grade Marks of an
Immortal King. One fell into the hands of little brat, Dancing
Flames, while the other was obtained by the Ruling Fate
Immortal Lord."
The Ruling Fate Immortal Lord was the descendant of the
Ruling Sky Manifesting Sage Great Emperor. He was also
touted to become a pillar of the Heavenly Domain in the future.
The path of cultivation only got harder. These immortal
emperors had spent endless years in cultivation to become
immortal emperors and achieve immortality. Otherwise, they
would only have several million years of lifespan. Truth be
told, through the long passage of time, they had numerous
descendants. However, they had failed to become immortal
emperors before the limit of an immortal’s lifespan and
perished forever with their daos.
Even amongst descendants of immortal emperors, there were
few that eventually became eternal immortal emperors.
Therefore, the number of eternal immortal emperors in the sky
palaces didn’t change much. As for those at the Great Void
Immortal Realm and below, there were constant changes.
"Yeah, a good Mark of an Immortal King determines if one can
eventually become an eternal immortal emperor. Only with an
eighth-grade Mark of an Immortal King or better could one
stand a chance of reaching eternal immortality," the Eastern
Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor said. "Therefore, it further
demonstrates the importance and worth of the 10th-grade Mark
of an Immortal King that His Majesty created. Whoever gets it
will definitely become an immortal emperor and, at the very
minimum, increase the number of eternal immortal emperors in
our Heavenly Domain. Undoubtedly, the creation of the 10th-
grade Mark of an Immortal King was extremely complicated
and not easy."
"So that’s how it is. His Majesty is using the contest for the
Mark of an Immortal King to experiment with the 10th-grade
Mark of an Immortal King. At the same time, he probably has
other intentions of having the fair competition to decide the
victor," Dhrtarastra said with a smile.
He naturally wished his daughter could get the 10th-grade Mark
of an Immortal King. If that happened, he would be satisfied.
Before Mo Yuji, Dhrtarastra had other descendants. Some of
them had reached the ninth tier of the Great Void Immortal
Realm but failed to take the final step forward towards the
Eternal Immortality Realm. When the time came, Dhrtarastra
cried for three years.
An experience like this was probably common among all the
immortal emperors present.
Although they might look amiable on the outside, they
naturally hoped their descendants would emerge with the 10th-
grade Mark of an Immortal King at the end. If another immortal
emperor came from their families or clans, they would be
looked upon better in the eyes of the Jade Emperor and enjoy a
higher standing.
The Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor carried a faint
smile.
With him stationed here and Marshall Tian You to assist him,
the 100-year battle in the Endless River of Stars would
definitely be fair.
The descendants of this generation were largely below the age
of three yuans. They were all proud geniuses of the Heavenly
Domain and shone brightly.
For example, if the other Heavenly Kings, like Virudhaka, had
descendants, they would also send them to the Endless River of
Stars for experience and trials.
..............
As the subject of the experiment, the Full Moon of Nanshan fell
into a deep slumber after receiving Wu Yu’s Imparting.
He wasn’t a Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast, so he would need
more time to digest. In fact, it was hard not to be confused while
attempting to fuse the newly imparted dao and experiences with
his own.
Fortunately, Wu Yu was around to help them sort and organize
these thoughts. He was selective in the large volume of
information he possessed. After Wu Yu had digested, he
extracted the purest portions that were relevant before
imparting them to the Full Moon of Nanshan. For him, this was
a gentle process.
Under Wu Yu’s gentle "sharing," the Full Moon of Nanshan
fell asleep as his mind descended into chaos. Wu Yu didn’t
know how effective it would be and therefore chose to observe
silently.
"Big Brother Yu, could he have gone silly?" Ye Xixi stood
beside Wu Yu while deriving joy from watching the Full Moon
of Nanshan.
"Would you be glad if he did?" Wu Yu joked.
"I definitely would be. Haha!" Ye Xixi laughed out loud.
"But it would be your turn next."
"Ah.... Alright."
This was the reasonable shortcut that Wu Yu had found for
them. This was a mysterious encounter that the Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast had brought to him, a true
exemplification of the saying, "riding on other’s success."
Without Imparting, how could others benefit from his success?
Till now, Wu You and others had not become immortals.
Within the Floating Dreams Pagoda, time gradually passed.
Finally, after a year or so, the Full Moon of Nanshan finally
awoke. In his slumber, he was focused on sorting what had been
imparted by Wu Yu. It was extremely condensed dao without
any personal inclination. For someone that wasn’t a Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast, it was extremely difficult to
understand.
When he woke up, the Full Moon of Nanshan was solemn.
"How was it?"
Wu Yu was anxious too. He had given a large portion of dao,
perception, thinking perspectives, and experiences of immortal
lords to the Full Moon of Nanshan.
Most likely, this was like an immortal lord being reborn as a
heavenly immortal with the large vault of experience intact.
Soon, he looked at Wu Yu in astonishment and said,
"Unbelievable! Unbelievable! Am I still me?"
"Do you feel any discomfort?" Wu Yu still wasn’t certain.
"Haha!" The Full Moon of Nanshan pounced forward like a
huge toad and shouted, "This is great! Old Wu, you are no
different from my parents! No, you are my ancestor! This won’t
do. I’ll marry you in gratitude. Quick, do it to me again!"
He pounced forward, but Wu Yu dodged immediately.
Immediately after, he transformed into a ginormous, black wild
boar, charging towards Wu Yu and wanting Wu Yu to do it to
him again!

"How disgusting!" Ye Xixi felt nauseous.

"Meow!" Even Lazy looked like it was on the verge of throwing
up.
However, Wu Yu was pretty elated. This was because from
how overjoyed the Full Moon of Nanshan was, it was clear that
he had succeeded.
"Stop fooling around. Tell us more about the details," asked Wu
Yu.
The Full Moon of Nanshan had his fun time before answering
seriously, "It’s incredible. My knowledge in all aspects is rising
rapidly. Now I’m feeling that tackling the next tier will be very
easy. I’ll understand whatever I want to know immediately. It’s
like I can revisit cultivation manuals with my current
knowledge, so it will be like taking candy from a baby. I’ve
even fully mastered the Demonic Pupil of Illusions. Moving
forward, I’ll be focusing on cultivation. Most likely, I’ll be able
to jump through several tiers to become a xuan immortal."
His illustrations were basically just as Wu Yu had expected.
Although it had taken some time to digest and the effects were
slightly discounted, Wu Yu was now able to enable them to
strengthen themselves rapidly.
After all, the time in the Floating Dreams Pagoda was more
abundant.
"I could even impart the powers of the immortal spirit world
nuclei of other immortal lords to you guys."
The truth was, Imparting benefited Wu Yu too.
By Imparting to them, it could relieve the pressure Wu Yu had
from devouring.
Dispersing the power he had devoured had other benefits too.
Once his body could no longer withstand it, the additional
portion of power would be distributed to his Unshackled
Doppelganger.
This could prevent Wu Yu from blowing up due to his low
cultivation level.
This would also allow him to devour more experts. And he
wouldn’t have to do the killing himself, since people were
dying everywhere in the Endless River of Stars.
The Full Moon of Nanshan entered a cultivation state
immediately. Once his cultivation level was raised, his
demands for powers could be easily met by Wu Yu. For
example, Wu Yu had plenty of Dao Deepening Pills.
He started forming his first immortal dao mark and was
preparing to enter the Nine Xuan Dao Realm.
With his speed and Wu Yu’s Imparting, he should be able to
catch up to Wu Yu swiftly. In fact, he might become a good
assistant to Wu Yu in the Endless River of Stars.
Obviously, Wu Yu wouldn’t leave Ye Xixi out. Although the
dao practiced by immortal lords was slightly different from
ghostly immortals, the greater dao shared similar core essences.
What Ye Xixi required was to create her own dao from the
experiences of others.
Moving forward, Wu Yu imparted her similar content that he
had given to the Full Moon of Nanshan, but with slight
modifications after filtering out what was most suitable for her.
Being able to help his brother and sister get stronger swiftly left
Wu Yu in a good mood. The fearsomeness of the Heaven
Devouring Titanic Beast was on display once again.
Before Imparting, he might be alone. With Imparting, he might
be an army.
Perhaps even the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord couldn’t do the
same thing.
At this point, Wu Yu was starting to miss Luo Pin.
"Once I return with a Mark of an Immortal King, I will also
enable her to improve rapidly...."
Wu Yu could almost imagine the four of them killing their way
through the sky palaces and how majestic the scene would be....
However, for now and the foreseeable future, he would still be
an ordinary and lowly immortal.
Over the span of a few years, both Ye Xixi and the Full Moon
of Nanshan received legacies from Wu Yu’s Imparting ability
inside the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
After receiving these legacies, both of them possessed
immortal lord levels of experiences and dao. They were now as
powerful as immortal lords and were practically like the
immortal lords reborn. Naturally, they had improved
exceptionally swiftly and were much stronger now.
Ye Xixi and the Full Moon of Nanshan had finally entered the
Nine Xuan Dao Realm after so many years of training.
When Wu Yu had just become a Xuan immortal, his strength
grew rapidly. Now that Ye Xixi and the Full Moon of Nanshan
had both received the legacies from Wu Yu, their strength had
also grown exponentially. While they had improved at a slower
rate than Wu Yu, they had reached the Nine Xuan Dao Realm
faster than Wu Yu had expected himself to reach the Immortal
Lord Realm.
After all, when reaching the Immortal Lord Realm, one would
have to form his own autonomous realm and world nucleus in
one’s immortal spirit. This was a more difficult feat to
accomplish than forming immortal dao marks.
With Wu Yu’s help, Ye Xixi and the Full Moon of Nanshan
continued to improve rapidly in their training.
"When I marry Luo Pin, I will try my best to bring her out here.
She can easily grow stronger at a much faster rate outside of
the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm. Otherwise, with such a
speed of growth, it will only rouse the suspicions of others in
the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm."
Wu Yu also knew that his current strength was unfathomable.
Hence, it would be best if he kept a low profile.
In his heart, other than the pleasant surprise of his Imparting
ability, there was another person that continued to occupy a
large portion of his attention, and that was Nangong Wei. He
had not forgotten about her even for a second. Each time he
shut his eyes to train, her image would surface in his head.
"Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord."
Perhaps at the moment, Wu Yu could not do anything about the
Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord. However, he still had a chance
to do something in future. There were still over 90 years left in
this journey down the Endless River of Stars; this was just the
beginning of a long journey.
The Ancient Emperor had already died.
Hence, if Wu Yu had any grudges and hatred left unresolved in
the sky palaces, it was with the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord.
She might feel as though she had not done any wrong, but a
grudge was a grudge. Wu Yu still hated her.
Even though Wu Yu and Nangong Wei had split up and were
now like strangers, Wu Yu was still unwilling for her to simply
disappear from this world in this manner.
Most of the time, Wu Yu was training feverishly. The immortal
spirit world nuclei from two 7-realm immortal lords were like
great power-boosting tonics for him.
The power and dao that the nuclei bore boosted his power,
allowing him to reach the peak of the Nine Xuan Dao Realm.
Wu Yu also imparted a portion of the immortal spirit and
immortal energy that he had absorbed to the Full Moon of
Nanshan and Ye Xixi, helping them improve greatly in their
training as well.
If Wu Yu wanted to grow any stronger, he would probably need
to create his own autonomous realm. He would also require the
Ruyi Jingu Bang to give him the ninth tier of the Invincible
Vajra Body.
The entire Invincible Vajra Body consisted of 10,000 words.
Wu Yu only had 2,000 words left. At the moment, he only had
a vague idea of what these 2,000 words meant. He was still
communicating and thinking hard to understand these last
words.
At the same time, the Ancient Ink Camp brought Wu Yu along
as they tirelessly searched the Endless River of Stars for a Mark
of an Immortal King.
Based on their strength, it would be a tall order for them to find
a Mark of an Immortal King.
However, one day, just as Wu Yu was studying the Immortal
Lord Realm, he suddenly heard Xu Zidong whisper to him,
"Wu Yu, we seem to have found another place with a Mark of
an Immortal King."
Wu Yu stopped training and quickly emerged from the Floating
Dreams Pagoda. Wu Yu was now one of the stronger members
of the Ancient Ink Camp. While he was still weaker than Xu
Zidong, he was on par with Qin Chuan. If a Mark of an
Immortal King appeared, Wu Yu would be a valuable asset in
the battle to get it.
After coming out, Wu Yu realized that he was standing on a
dim and dark gray star. This star was in a barren area and was
tiny. It was a star that largely went unnoticed.
However, all eight members of the Ancient Ink Camp were
unbelievably excited. This was because they were standing
before a mountain wall, and a deep cave had appeared on this
wall. This cave was like an endless hole. They could not see
how deep this cave was.
Xu Zidong told Wu Yu, "This cave was not here at the start. It
only appeared after we arrived and destroyed a few rocks."
If the cave had existed from the beginning, then it might not
hide a Mark of an Immortal King. However, the cave had only
appeared after their arrival. Hence, there was a great possibility
that a Mark of an Immortal King was here. After all, all the stars
in the Endless River of Stars were inert. Changes often occurred
due to an appearance of a Mark of an Immortal King.
Wu Yu was surprised and asked, "This place is totally different
from the immortal city where we found the first Mark of an
Immortal King. There was a great deal of noise at that time, but
this time, the change was relatively quiet?"
Qin Chuan answered, "That’s right. Of course, we might have
guessed wrongly. If there is no loud noise from the change, then
there will be less competition and hence there may not be a
Mark of an Immortal King here."
Qing Yuli quipped, "That may not be the case - perhaps the
competition is already inside."
Wu Yu said, "No matter what, we have to enter the cave. We
cannot miss any chance of getting a Mark of an Immortal
King."
"Right, we are all here and shall go down the cave together."
Xu Zidong gestured to the entire group. Everyone nodded in
agreement. Then, with Xu Zidong as the leader, they entered
and started their descent deep into the cave whilst keeping a
lookout for each other.
"Everyone, please be careful. There are no signs of movement
yet. If there really is a Mark of an Immortal King in here, it can
only mean that danger awaits us ahead."
The deeper they ventured into the cave, the darker it became. It
was just like the moment the black sun rose in the Great
Ancient Ink Realm when all light was absorbed. This caused
them to sink into extreme darkness.
"We should be near the core of this star!" They had travelled
downwards for a long time but still had not reached the end of
the cave.
"Since this is such a special place, this just means that there is
a high possibility of the Mark of an Immortal King being here,"
Xu Zidong said.
If the Mark of an Immortal King was well-hidden and did not
attract any competitors, then they stood a higher chance of
getting this Mark of an Immortal King.
"Until now, we have searched through only 1,000 stars. If we
find a Mark of an Immortal King twice, then we are really
lucky," Yang Wenlan said.
Hence, they valued this opportunity even more. Actually, they
were very close to getting the Mark of an Immortal King during
their first encounter with one.
"Something’s changing!"
At this moment, they finally spotted the end of the cave. When
they landed, a horizontal tunnel appeared on the cave wall. In
the instant that the group landed, the earth above their heads
suddenly moved as though they were alive. In that instant, the
entire tunnel was shut and sealed. They had no way of escaping.
When the endless, tunnel-like cave above them was sealed,
instead of being worried, the group seemed excited. These
strange changes were almost guaranteeing the presence of a
Mark of an Immortal King.
Of course, this might also be a trap set up via some immortal
design by powerful immortal lords. However, immortal lords
were usually unwilling to waste their time in such endeavours.
"Let’s move forward."
While the tunnel above them had closed up, a new tunnel had
appeared in front of them. They peered into the tunnel and
could vaguely see the end. There seemed to be a hall at the end.
Whoosh!
They quietly moved towards the hall.
After reaching it, they saw that it was indeed a relatively large
hall. It was obviously a battle venue too!
There was a huge signboard hanging at the highest part of the
palace hall in front of them. On the signboard, there were three
big words “Green Ghost Hall!”
"Into formation."
The eight of them immediately formed a battle formation. It
looked like a circle, with defences at all directions: the front,
back, left, right, up, and down. Basically, the defences were
formed by eight autonomous realms layered together, which
increased the strength of their defence, allowing them to
withstand attacks from all directions.
On the other hand, Wu Yu was a free man. He was not worried
about being left out of the defensive formation. He had the Eyes
of Fire and Gold, so he could see more clearly than the others.

This Green Ghost Hall was extremely eerie. This meant that the
hall could not possibly be some immortal lord’s prank. There
was a 90% chance that there was a Mark of an Immortal King
in here.
While this would be dangerous, everyone from the Ancient Ink
Camp was very excited. They had spent many years searching
just to wait for this day.
This was a better opportunity than their previous chance
because when they were at the immortal city, the Mark of an
Immortal King had appeared with too much fanfare and had
attracted too much competition.
Crack!
Just as they arrived, something changed immediately. There
were about 10 green, human-sized stones surrounding the hall,
and they suddenly started glittering like jewels. Their green
sparkle and shine made the place seem even creepier. Soon,
these jewel-like stones melted as though they were liquid, and
from within the melted stones, things emerged. These new
entities were well-built and covered in green scales. Their faces
were fierce-looking, with protruding fangs. They were evil
ghosts covered with pricks. Actually, they looked like ghostly
immortals!
These new entities looked too chilling. Hence, even Yang
Wenlan screamed in shock at the sight of them. They had
stayed in the sky palaces for a long time and naturally rarely
had the opportunity to see such hellish beings.
"These are Zombie Ghostly Immortals. These are made from
the fresh corpses of ghostly immortals. When their ghostly
spirits have yet to dissipate, the maker uses an evil method,
supplemented by precious quintessences and materials, to carve
complicated ghostly immortal designs onto the bodies and then
turn them into zombies. Their battle power can reach up to 70%
of the strength they had when they were alive! There are a lot
of them here. Everyone, please be careful!"
Obviously, even these Zombie Ghostly Immortals made him
afraid.
"Roger that!"
They were prepared to battle and had taken out their destinable
immortal treasures!
They were strong in coordinated battles. While Wu Yu could
not join them for the time being, he could ease the burden on
them and distract some of the Zombie Ghostly Immortals.
These Zombie Ghostly Immortals walked out from the green,
jewel-like stones like an endless river gushing out. They
emerged one after another, and after coming out, they attacked
Wu Yu’s group upon sight!
Even though these Zombie Ghostly Immortals did not have
their destinable immortal treasures with them, they still
possessed their Immortal Lord Realm techniques and
mystiques. They all attacked, and within a short period of time,
there were 100 of them. They formed a pretty formidable force.
A Mark of an Immortal King was no easy trophy to earn. The
test that they were facing now was indeed much scarier than the
Endless Immortal Army. The Zombie Ghostly Immortals’
looks were already terrifying enough.
Bang, bang!
A fierce battle exploded in the Green Ghost Hall!
Wu Yu first turned small using his Lawful Embodiment of
Heaven and Earth. Then he pondered about the source of these
endless Zombie Ghostly Immortals. There was no way to kill
all of them. The battle had started and did not seem to be ending
any time soon. If this continued, the entire Green Ghost Hall
would be filled to the brim with these Zombie Ghostly
Immortals!
"There must be some way to stop them from coming out."
Very quickly, he spotted the green jewel-like stones where the
Zombie Ghostly Immortals were emerging from.
Thinking about that, he immediately rushed to one of the green
stones and took out his Floating Dreams Sword. He used all his
strength and blasted the green stone.
Ting!
The green stone was not destroyed even after his all-out hit!
Ting, ting, ting!
Bearing the risk of being attacked by nearby Zombie Ghostly
Immortals, he continued his attacks, and finally, the green stone
cracked and crumbled under the power of the Floating Dreams
Sword. Indeed, after the green stone shattered, it no longer
produced Zombie Ghostly Immortals.
However, there were still plenty of Zombie Ghostly Immortals,
and there were around 10 more of these green stones!
"I shall try to destroy these!"
After Wu Yu relayed his discovery to the group, he
immediately continued his mission to destroy the other green
stones. As these Zombie Ghostly Immortals were slower than
Wu Yu, with the protection of the Sky Cloud Realm, Wu Yu
could move around them freely.
However, Xu Zidong and his group were under much greater
pressure as almost all the Zombie Ghostly Immortals were
targeting and attacking them!
"Hold fast."
With Xu Zidong taking point, the Ancient Ink Camp took up
their battle formations, using their autonomous realm power to
hold the Zombie Ghostly Immortals back!
But the number of Zombie Ghostly Immortals only grew and
grew, like a hive of locusts intent on overwhelming the eight
Ancient Ink Camp members.
If there were but a few dozen, they could still be dealt with. But
the swarm of Zombie Ghostly Immortals far exceeded that.
They knew no fear, and mindlessly marched on like hungry
wolves intent on their prey. They had no weaknesses, and had
to be blown up into pulp. They would only cease when the
immortal designs within their bodies were broken beyond
repair.
Each of them was like an elite xuan immortal.
"Wu Yu, if we cannot hold on, we might need your strength!"
Wu Yu was still smashing green stones. He moved at a frenzied
pace, so the Zombie Ghostly Immortals could not catch him for
now. But as their numbers continued to multiply, he might be
swamped.
"Don’t worry!"
For now, Wu Yu was pretty confident. He glanced at the
number of green Zombie Ghostly Immortals in the hall and
quickly brought out twice their number in Unshackled
Doppelgangers.
Of course, the aim of these doppelgangers was not to fight the
green zombies head-on. Each doppelganger was roughly a xuan
immortal’s equivalent, but not that elite.
Their main purpose was to be bait! Once they appeared, they
started to flee from the zombies. Wu Yu knew that the
advantages of these zombies were that they did not fear death
and that they were difficult to kill. But they had a weakness,
which was low intellect. All they knew was to attack.
As expected, once the clones appeared, the green zombies
switched targets. Before, the Ancient Ink Camp was their
primary target, and now they were but eight among thousands.
As the green zombies continued their rampage, Wu Yu’s clones
dwindled. But he had 100,000 doppelgangers, and he had only
used 1,000 or so. Therefore, he could immediately replace the
clones that fell, and he continued to make them run to and fro,
distracting the zombies.
"Everyone, split up. Focus on taking down the green stones
before we turn to fight."
Wu Yu called loudly.
Xu Zidong saw that the green Zombie Ghostly Immortals were
largely preoccupied with Wu Yu’s clones. Wu Yu’s clones
were also limited. Now that they were no longer the main
targets, the pressure eased significantly, and they could
definitely split up and prioritize the green stones!
"Split up! Destroy the green stones!"
At Xu Zidong’s order, they immediately dispersed, the nine
working together. This increased their efficiency greatly,
especially for Xu Zidong. As they were faced with fewer green
Zombie Ghostly Immortals, they could naturally fight better.
If not for Wu Yu’s clones, they would have been overwhelmed
by the green Zombie Ghostly Immortals, unable to even pass
the entrance.
Wu Yu dedicated half of his attention to directing the fleeing
clones, continuing to hold the attention of the green Zombie
Ghostly Immortals. And then he and the other eight continued
to smash green stones. In roughly 15 minutes, the number of
green Zombie Ghostly Immortals had swelled to a full 2,000,
but by their efforts, all of the green stones had been smashed,
and their number would not grow any further!
Wu Yu knew well that in Green Ghost Hall, the most important
thing was not to kill first, but to smash these openings. Once
the enemies were no longer multiplying, it was time to start
killing.
"Perhaps this Mark of an Immortal King is of a decent grade."
Wu Yu thought to himself as he looked out at the hellish sight.
Next, he still needed to use these doppelgangers to distract the
green Zombie Ghostly Immortals. Otherwise, the concerted
attack of a few thousand green Zombie Ghostly Immortals
would end them.
With the pressure alleviated, Xu Zidong and the others split up
to fight. Because they were not facing too many opponents at
the same time, they could fight with verve. Wu Yu used his
Time Warp Field and Blink Slayer Designs, basically taking
one down with every blow!
After about two hours, everyone was breathing raggedly. The
ground of the Green Ghost Hall was littered with the pulped
corpses of green Zombie Ghostly Immortals. When Wu Yu
finished off the last green Zombie Ghostly Immortal, it was
finally over. Everyone slumped to the floor in exhaustion. In
order to hold the attention of these green Zombie Ghostly
Immortals, Wu Yu had lost a total of 50,000 unshackled
doppelgangers.
"It’s all thanks to Wu Yu. Otherwise, we would have been hard-
pressed to even get out alive. After all, the way back has been
sealed off," Xu Zidong said gratefully, looking at Wu Yu.
The members of the Ancient Ink Camp were all very respectful
of Wu Yu. Although they were older, Wu Yu’s improvements
made them realize that this junior was a genius of rare talent.
Qin Chuan said, "Well, can we get a Mark of an Immortal
King? This test was a real scare. Does that mean that this Mark
of an Immortal King is of great quality?"
"Don’t overthink it before we get it," Xu Zidong said.
Just as he finished speaking, the depths of the Green Ghost Hall
rumbled, and the wall of the mountain moved, revealing a
passage. This one led even deeper, and they were nervous, not
knowing where it led.
"Perhaps it’s a new challenge."
"Very likely. And probably more fearsome than the last."
"Will we die inside...."
Everyone was feeling uneasy, and Wu Yu could sense the
sinister air within. He was nervous too, because those green
Zombie Ghostly Immortals had been a real scare.
"Shall I scout the way?" Wu Yu said.
"Better not. We’re all here to fight side by side, and pass any
difficulty together. No matter what, we face it together. This is
a rare opportunity. Let’s go!"
"That’s right. We can’t always let Wu Yu take the risk."

Wu Yu had won their respect through his strength and

character.
No matter what lay in his future, being able to help this band of
brothers and progress together would be enough.
Because of the Nangong Wei incident, Wu Yu had thought of
leaving them. Because of his own carelessness, he had offended
the eternal phoenix tribe, and that might implicate them.
But Wu Yu’s Immortal King Token had come from them. And
all this time, they had protected Wu Yu, allowing him to reach
where he had safely. Therefore, Wu Yu wanted to repay their
favor and help them earn a Mark of an Immortal King.
And so, he would naturally do his best this time. If they passed
up on this chance, who knew when they would get a shot at a
Mark of an Immortal King again?
There was a 99% chance that the 100 years would be a flop and
they would end up with nothing, perhaps even dying inside.
If they could get a Mark of an Immortal King, they could just
hide for the rest of their time.
Because given their strength, they would definitely have to
remain low-profile if they got a Mark of an Immortal King.
Otherwise, they might very well be killed, even after they left.
After all, even Xu Zidong would take a very long time to
cultivate to a level where he could use the Mark of an Immortal
King. They had been lucky to get many Immortal King Tokens
this time, which was why they could risk coming in.
If he was moving alone, Wu Yu was confident in obtaining his
own Mark of an Immortal King within 100 years. And he would
definitely get the best one!
They had passed through the long tunnel, finally reaching an
even larger hall. When they looked up, they saw a sign that said
“Yellow Ghost Hall.” They were uneasy. This was evidently
another test, and a more formidable one. They did not know
what would appear, or how many more tests were still waiting
for them.
What if they went on and on and never ended? Wouldn’t that
be unnerving? Because they were trapped within this star now
and could not even leave.
When they arrived, things immediately began to happen! The
ground before them started to churn, as though it were a swamp.
From within, a huge creature emerged. It was roughly the same
size as Wu Yu’s maximum enlarged form. It was like a demon
immortal, but clearly not a demon immortal. It was a ghostly
immortal, and this ghostly immortal had yellow scales. It was
covered in blood, and its skull was like a huge, meaty boil. It
looked grotesque and vengeful. Most striking of all was that it
had three heads and six arms below that. Each of its arms held
a different weapon. They were a whole different range of
destinable immortal treasures!
Seeing this Zombie Ghostly Immortal-like being, they all
inhaled sharply.
"It looks like the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li’s son,
Third Lotus Prince Nezha! Three heads and six arms!
Everyone, be careful. Who knows what powers this yellow
Zombie Ghostly Immortal has!"
Wu Yu knew of Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li and Third
Lotus Prince Nezha. Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li was
not like Dhrtarastra, who was one of the Four Heavenly Kings.
Instead, he was a commander in the Jade Emperor’s Spirit of
Heaven Jeweled Hall, one of esteemed status. He was on the
same level as the Eastern Sublime Gracious Divine Emperor,
and was even greatly favored by the Jade Emperor himself. He
was the highest superior of the Four Heavenly Kings.
However, his son, Third Lotus Prince Nezha, was even more
powerful. He was also hailed as the Marshal of the Central
Altar, the Heavenly Master, the Prominent Supreme General,
the God of the Three Seas. He did not pale in comparison to
Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li, and even surpassed him in
cultivation level and fighting power. He was the most brilliant
of the immortal emperor’s children, and a classic example of
the student surpassing the teacher. Besides Third Lotus Prince
Nezha, there were few instances in the Heavenly Domain
where the child surpassed the parent.
This yellow Zombie Ghostly Immortal before them was
definitely not Third Lotus Prince Nezha, who was even more
powerful than the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King. However,
he had probably been built in Third Lotus Prince Nezha’s
image. The three heads indicated that it was not just a single
being. Therefore, this yellow Zombie Ghostly Immortal was
probably created from three different bodies.
Although this yellow Zombie Ghostly Immortal seemed to be
the only thing here, it was clear that this monster would not be
easy to deal with. They would have to work even closer
together. Xu Zidong and the others prepared to take up their
formation, preparing for the attack. As for Wu Yu, he hid
himself away, searching for a way to break this. From their
experience with the Green Ghost Hall, it was obvious that the
key to unraveling the task would be more important than ever
if they lacked enough strength!
At this time, Xu Zidong and the others had already clashed with
the yellow Zombie Ghostly Immortal. One look was enough to
let Wu Yu know that this yellow Zombie Ghostly Immortal was
incredibly strong, even though it did not have autonomous
realm power. It was roughly equivalent to an 8-realm immortal
lord. What was even more terrifying was that it did not fear
death, because every wound inflicted on its body healed
automatically and instantly!
For now, he could not see any catch to the puzzle. As they
attacked the yellow Zombie Ghostly Immortal, Wu Yu also
joined in the fray!
He went all-out this time. After all, there was no one else
around, and it did not matter that the Ancient Ink Camp knew
that he was an "immortal beast." Therefore, he did not use the
Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth this time, but instead
reverted to the original form of the Heaven Devouring Titanic
Beast!
The Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast was even larger than the
opponent. Combined with Wu Yu’s mystiques and destinable
immortal treasures, the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast was
elevated to even deadlier heights.
Even the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth had an
effect on the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast. Wu Yu could
control it, and even though his body did not change in
appearance, his strength grew. Of course, his speed was
penalized because of it, but this was quite a marvelous change.
Because before, Wu Yu had depended on the physical growth
to obtain his strength, at the cost of his speed.
As for the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast, it could make the
mystique into a speed-for-strength trade-off.
This was a milestone change that had been brought about by
the merge between the real body and the second primordial
spirit.
Of course, this was not Wu Yu’s first time experiencing it. Back
when he fought the Tian Ming Dragon Lord, he had used the
power of the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast to win.
"Time Warp Immortal Design!"
This was Wu Yu’s other important weapon.
As the yellow Zombie Ghostly Immortal was being subdued,
not just Wu Yu, but the other Ancient Ink Camp members were
also free to act now. Wu Yu used his time warp control to
support them, and occasionally chipped in with his own attacks.
His Meteoric Mirror and Sky Cloud Realm had terrifying
power, especially when paired with the slashes of the Floating
Dreams Sword. In this battle, Wu Yu’s contribution was even
higher than before!
Especially since the Floating Dreams Pagoda controlled time
so marvelously!
The yellow Zombie Ghostly Immortal’s brutal attacks were
completely scrambled by the time warp, and its threat level was
mitigated. The Ancient Ink Camp had more time to marshal
their attacks and unleash their autonomous realm power on the
yellow Zombie Ghostly Immortal.
"All together now, smash it to pulp!"
"Alright!"
They did not relent, but continued to attack in a frenzy. Wu Yu
eased off the offense, focusing his energy on the Floating
Dreams Pagoda. It allowed him to disrupt the yellow Zombie
Ghostly Immortal even more precisely. Even though it was
wielding destinable immortal treasures, it was hard-pressed to
connect with its attacks!
It was fairly draining for Wu Yu to maintain the Time Warp
Field amidst such changes. Towards the end, he was forced to
burn some immortal energy and buddha energy to sustain it.
Otherwise, if the yellow Zombie Ghostly Immortal broke free
of the Time Warp Field, the Ancient Ink Camp members would
be doomed.
Luckily, he was able to hold on, and after about an hour, the
Ancient Ink Camp finally destroyed the yellow Zombie
Ghostly Immortal completely, to the point that it could no
longer regenerate. They all gasped for breath, dropping to the
floor with fatigue. They looked around, wild joy barely
concealed behind their grimaces.
"Who would have thought that you were actually an immortal
beast. No wonder you’re so talented." They looked at Wu Yu,
their admiration renewed.
BOOM! RUMBLE~
Just as they spoke, another passageway opened up behind the
Yellow Ghost Hall. Their expressions tightened because this
might imply that yet another challenge awaited, and probably
one that was even harder to deal with than the yellow Zombie
Ghostly Immortal. Besides, the Mark of an Immortal King had
yet to appear. Who knew how many more challenges awaited
them? That was the most terrifying doubt of all.
The unknown was the greatest fear.
"When will this ever end? It’s a nightmare!" Yang Wenlan
groused.
"Don’t despair, Little Sister. The harder it is, the higher the
grade of the Mark of an Immortal King. Maybe this third place
is the final trial. And maybe the Mark of an Immortal King is
just ahead, and the trials are already behind us. We might just
have to retrieve it." Wu Xiao grinned.
"Don’t rush in yet. Let’s recuperate a little." Although the Mark
of an Immortal King might be right before their eyes, the past
two encounters had taken quite a toll on them. Therefore, Xu
Zidong wanted to play it safe and recover their strength first.
They could use their Genesis Mystical Pills to recover their
autonomous realm power.
Wu Yu needed some rest too. He had expended the most energy
in the last battle.
"Wu Yu, we passed that trial thanks to you as well. Without
you, we couldn’t have made it through safely." Xu Zidong
smiled.
Wu Yu smiled slightly in response, but did not speak.
"If we find a Mark of an Immortal King, take it. It belongs to
you. You should have it," he said, clapping Wu Yu on the
shoulder.
Wu Yu shook his head. "That won’t do. I was just doing what
I could. For now, I don’t need a Mark of an Immortal King. I’m
not even at the Immortal Lord Realm."
Xu Zidong laughed and said, "Don’t try to bluff us. How could
you have such strength without being at the Immortal Lord
Realm? Besides, I saw your autonomous realm power."
He assumed that the Sky Cloud Realm was Wu Yu’s
autonomous realm power.
Wu Yu could not say anything about that. But he would not
accept the Mark of an Immortal King, because it was his
repayment to Xu Zidong and the others.
Of course, the Mark of an Immortal King was not yet obtained.
The road ahead was fraught with danger, and there was little
meaning in debating this right now. Therefore, Wu Yu did not
harp on the issue. He instinctively felt that there were still more
trials ahead.
100 million immortal lords had come into this contest. How
could a Mark of an Immortal King be that easily obtained?
"On your feet. We’re going in," Xu Zidong said to them.
"Alright!"
"Let’s go!"
They had passed two trials and were all recovered to peak
condition now. They were buoyed up by success, and
galvanized to face the remaining unknown trials with
confidence.
"Let’s go."
"I wonder what’s inside...."
When they passed though, they reached a new hall. This hall
was small, perhaps only a tenth of the Green Ghost Hall’s size.
The walls were lit with red candles, casting a sinister, red pall
on the hall.
The hall was rather small, and one glance was enough to take it
all in.
There was a signboard on the hall, but it was blank.
But none of them were paying attention to this, because their
eyes were all riveted on the elevated platform in front, where a
certain object lay on the stone pillar.
It was a black jade seal-like object. It was divided into two
parts. The bottom half was a square seal and the upper half was
carved in the image of a beast!
"Mark of an Immortal King!"
Wu Yu was taken aback. He had seen a Mark of an Immortal
King before, so he knew what it looked like.
"What!?"
Their faces changed.
Wu Xiao laughed gaily. "Didn’t I tell you? We’ve already
passed the trials. We could have taken the Mark immediately.
What scaredy cats we were, spending so long on our recovery!"
Everyone laughed happily. The Mark of an Immortal King was
right before them! This was something that they would never
have even dreamed of!
"Big Brother, go on, take the Mark of an Immortal King," Qin
Chuan said.
Even he, who was usually reticent, was smiling now. They were
all unusually excited.
Xu Zidong nodded, but he looked over at Wu Yu, intending for
Wu Yu to take it as he had said before.
"Big Brother, I think you should take it. After all, you are the
strongest. Wu Yu does not need it for now," Yang Wenlan
suddenly said.

These were strange words, but Wu Yu also shook his head.

"Sister Yang is right. I don’t need it for now. No need to stand
on ceremony. Take the Mark first, and we can talk about it
later." "Alright." Xu Zidong walked up, moving quickly
towards the Mark.
"Might be dangerous. I had better go along," Qin Chuan said,
pulling out the Mountains and Rivers Sword as he went.
"Me too."
Soon, they were all crowding forward eagerly, while Wu Yu
remained behind. He suddenly felt a little drowsy. As he looked
back, he saw that the passageway had been sealed off, and they
were trapped in this hall.
Ming Long asked, "Strange place. Could there be something
hidden?"
"I think so too. Something’s off." As for what was off, Wu Yu
could not tell. His own brain felt a little foggy.
Even his footsteps felt sluggish, and he could not hear Ming
Long’s words clearly. Because in his eyes, there was nothing
but blood. As he saw the others move forward, he was seized
by a manic urge to devour them!
He was extremely famished, and all he saw were juicy
delicacies.
At this time, his food suddenly began to fight amongst
themselves.
"Why should the Mark of an Immortal King be yours? So what
if you’re the eldest?"
"The Mark of an Immortal King is mine! I’m the youngest! You
have to give way!"
"Don’t think I don’t know the dark thoughts you’re thinking!"
"Go to hell!"
They were actually fighting amongst themselves, and very
savagely at that, aiming to kill one another.
Wu Yu remained behind, not participating. But a desire was
growing within him, to kill them all!
"Wu Yu, look up!" He heard an anguished voice that cut
through his muddled mind. He lifted his head to look at the
signboard. "Heart Ghost Hall" had appeared on it.
These three words had not appeared before.
"Heart Ghost Hall, Heart Ghost Hall, what does it mean...."
He calmed down slightly, but the impulsiveness within him
could not be reined in. It was as though there were demons in
his heart, and the blood flying fast and free from the scuffle was
only feeding his need to devour.
Weng!
Suddenly, he felt a jolt of clarity. Although he did not know
what had happened, Wu Yu guessed that the Ruyi Jingu Bang
had helped him subdue his inner evil.
"Quickly! If you don’t act, those people will tear each other to
bits!"
Ming Long urged him.
Wu Yu was startled. He looked carefully and saw that a few
people had already been grievously injured, including the
surrounded Xu Zidong. They were all mesmerized by the Heart
Ghost Hall!
This Heart Ghost Hall was also a test, and the Mark of an
Immortal King was the test! This test could ensure that they all
killed each other in a short time. If not for the Ruyi Jingu Bang,
Wu Yu would probably also have entered the mad killing!
Losing oneself completely was very dangerous indeed!
"What to do? They’re still not themselves."
"Judging by my experience, destroy the source. Destroy the
Mark of an Immortal King," Ming Long said.
"Alright!"
Wu Yu immediately complied without hesitation. He had no
more time left to think.
