Chapter 209: The 'Uncrowned King' of the Celestial Blue World

Chapter 209: The 'Uncrowned King' of the Celestial Blue World (End of Chapter)

In the depths of the Black Mist Mountains, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance felt his blood boil, barely stopping himself from falling into a fit of madness.

His trusted subordinates, respected elders, close friends, and beloved confidantes had all turned against him at this critical moment.

Could it be that they had betrayed him and defected to the side of the evil god's offspring? But how was that possible?

Setting aside the question of what price this evil god's offspring had paid to buy the loyalty of his followers, the more pressing concern was when had this betrayal occurred? How had he been kept in the dark until now?

A chill ran through the heart of the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance as he gazed at the powerful beings surrounding him. Just moments ago, they had been respectful and subservient, but now they were cold and ruthless, their faces devoid of any hint of compassion.

"Do you all know what you are doing?" he asked, his voice laced with disbelief and a hint of desperation.

What he truly wanted to ask was, why would they defect to the evil god? Following him, they would have enjoyed the adoration of countless beings in the Celestial Blue World, a far better fate than siding with the evil god.

His eyes fell upon Ayin, his confidante. After driving away the foreign evil god, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance had ruled over the Celestial Blue World, and Ayin could have stood by his side, revered by all.

While he could fathom the possibility, however slight, of betrayal by the others, he struggled to understand why Ayin would turn against him.

With a mix of hope and expectation, he turned to look at her, only to be met with a cold, indifferent gaze.

"Who are you, truly?" he asked, his voice shaking.

Instead of attempting to break through the encirclement, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance remained still. Given the current situation, with all his followers having turned against him and the instigator of this plot, Lin Yuan, yet to make his move, he knew that his chances of escape were slim.

He was certain that his opponents had prepared thoroughly for this confrontation. Therefore, his only option now was to buy time.

And then...

He would recall the World Sword.

Not long ago, after destroying the Evil God's battlefield, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance had left the World Sword outside the world as a precaution against any retaliation by the foreign evil god.

While this decision had seemed prudent, he could never have imagined that his greatest threat would not come from the primordial yaomo tree outside the world, but from Lin Yuan within it.

Nevertheless, regardless of the challenges he faced, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance believed that as long as he had the World Sword, he could fear no adversity.

The World Sword was a weapon nurtured by the Celestial Blue World for countless millennia. Its power grew stronger the closer it was to the Celestial Blue World.

If he could activate the World Sword within the world, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance was confident that even a fully restored primordial yaomo tree would not dare to confront him directly.

Then, he would reclaim everything that was rightfully his.

However, Lin Yuan was well aware of the leader's attempts to stall for time. He had patiently waited for this opportunity, knowing that the separation between the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance and the World Sword was temporary.

Now that his chance had come, Lin Yuan would show no mercy.

As the leader's gaze turned toward him, Lin Yuan unleashed the 'Evil God's Gaze'.

This ability, originating from the primordial yaomo tree, held immense power in the hands of its offspring, and even more so when wielded by Lin Yuan.

Buzz!

A terrifying wave of soul energy swept through the area, causing the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance's thoughts to tremble and his consciousness to slowly descend into darkness.

"Not good!"

The leader's expression turned to one of shock as he struggled to gather his wits, biting the tip of his tongue and resorting to forbidden techniques to maintain his lucidity.

With a surge of power, he shot into the sky.

Through this brief respite, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance realized that staying and delaying only made him more vulnerable.

"The power of this technique is not far inferior to that of the foreign evil god. What kind of monster is this evil god's offspring?"

His mind reeled as he began to doubt himself.

Had he truly driven away the foreign evil god that possessed the primordial yaomo tree? It made no sense.

Typically, the power of the mother body far surpassed that of its offspring.

Based on the strength of this evil god's offspring, it was evident that its mother body possessed the means to easily destroy the entire Celestial Blue World.

Yet, the opposite was true.

When he had destroyed the Evil God's battlefield, the mother body had not dared to intervene.

With such a powerful offspring, why was the mother body so timid?

As these thoughts raced through his mind, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance fled the Black Mist Mountains with all his might. He had already begun the process of recalling the World Sword, and if he could just hold on a little longer...

Before he could finish his thought, he found himself enveloped by a cage of inverted space, the powers of space swirling around him.

"As expected."

Lin Yuan sighed softly. "Relying solely on the yaomo tree's abilities is insufficient to keep you here."

Vines swayed as Lin Yuan manipulated the powers of space, shifting through the void and dragging the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance back before him.

Even without the World Sword, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance was a peak Seventh Stage powerhouse.

If the primordial yaomo tree in its entirety wanted to kill the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance, it would require considerable effort, and there was still a chance that he could escape.

"What kind of ability is this?"

The leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance was utterly shaken, more so than by Lin Yuan's sigh.

He had clearly escaped a short distance just now, so how had he been brought back?

"The power of space... Can it be controlled in such a way?"

His heart trembled as he, a being of his caliber, had naturally begun to comprehend the rules of space.

However, the Celestial Blue World's foundation was limited, and his understanding of the rules of space had always been akin to a blind man feeling an elephant.

Lacking a foundational or core spatial model as a reference, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance could only rely on himself.

To illustrate with a simple example, the immensely advanced human civilization from the main world that Lin Yuan hailed from had brought about a dimensional strike on the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance.

"Hmm?"

Paying no heed to the leader's shock, Lin Yuan turned his gaze toward a particular direction.

It was the direction where the Evil God's battlefield had once been, and now, a vast presence was rapidly approaching from there.

"Is it the World Sword?"

Lin Yuan had anticipated this.

After wielding the World Sword for four hundred years, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance would undoubtedly have an extraordinary connection with it.

With its master facing a life-threatening situation, it was only natural for the World Sword to rush to his aid, and this fell well within Lin Yuan's expectations.

"But... it's too late."

Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.

If the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance had recalled the World Sword before entering the Black Mist Mountains, he might have stood a chance against Lin Yuan.

But now?

Even for the World Sword, flying from outside the Celestial Blue World to the Black Mist Mountains would take at least half an incense stick's worth of time.

In that duration, Lin Yuan would have reduced the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance to a pulp.

The World Sword was indeed powerful, but it needed to be wielded by its master to reach its full potential.

Without someone to actively control it, its might was greatly diminished, hence why the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance was able to dominate it.

"Why not just directly engage in battle with the primordial yaomo tree?"

However, with its power greatly reduced, Lin Yuan was confident that he could hold his own against the World Sword.

"Begin parasitism."

With a slight stir of his consciousness, a grayish seed descended and entered the spatial cage.

In the brief moments it took for Lin Yuan to launch his casual attack, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance, trapped within the spatial cage, was already severely injured and on the brink of death.

If not for Lin Yuan's intention to parasitize, the leader would have perished long ago.

"Ahhh! Is this parasitism? No, the parasitic methods of the foreign evil god shouldn't be like this!"

The leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance let out a painful moan.

At that moment, various scenes flashed through his mind—his subordinates, elders, confidantes, and beauties suddenly betraying him.

"So that's how it is."

A look of realization finally appeared on the leader's face.

Perhaps they hadn't betrayed him, but were instead controlled by this offspring of the evil god?

As this thought crossed his mind, he looked at them with newfound understanding, and then, with a sense of relief, he closed his eyes. "Greetings, Master," he said, bowing to Lin Yuan.

The parasitism was successful.

For four hundred years, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance had fought against the primordial yaomo tree, attaining the battle prowess of an eighth-stage cultivator.

However, much of that power came from the World Sword. As for the leader himself, he was still at the seventh stage.

Therefore, when facing Lin Yuan, who had also reached the peak of the seventh stage and possessed might that was no weaker than the primordial yaomo tree, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance had no means of resistance.

"Master," the leader addressed Lin Yuan respectfully.

"Rise," Lin Yuan nodded slightly.

In preparation for dealing with the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance, Lin Yuan had devised numerous backup plans.

For instance, he had anticipated the possibility of the leader breaking free from the spatial cage and had additional measures in place to counter that scenario.

"Can you continue to control the World Sword?" Lin Yuan asked directly.

There was no need for pretense when communicating with his parasite.

"Master," the leader acknowledged, closing his eyes to sense the connection before nodding. "I should be able to."

"Excellent," Lin Yuan thought with a smile.

The reason he had gone through so much trouble to gain control of the leader was not only because of the man's position as the strongest in the Celestial Blue World but also because of the World Sword.

The World Sword was nurtured by the Celestial Blue World; in theory, it should not have been able to leave that realm. Its existence was intricately tied to the world's origin.

Lin Yuan believed that by obtaining the World Sword and studying it with his Heaven-defying Comprehension talent, he might be able to unravel the secrets of world evolution and destruction, and ultimately integrate it into his internal world.

Eighth-stage and ninth-stage cultivators primarily focused on cultivating their internal worlds, constantly refining and expanding them until they became true, vast worlds.

"Go and bring the World Sword back to me," Lin Yuan commanded the leader.

"Yes, Master," the leader acknowledged, rising to carry out the order.

Half a day later, the leader returned, now holding a stone longsword.

The sword was entirely composed of grayish-white stone, but it emanated a subtle aura of commanding the power of the world.

"Is this the World Sword?" Lin Yuan wondered, and with a slight stir of his consciousness, the sword flew out of the leader's hand and into his presence.

Buzz!

Perhaps sensing something, the World Sword began to struggle violently.

"If we were outside, you might have been able to break free," Lin Yuan said, a cold smile playing on his lips. "But here..."

He had been cultivating in the Black Mist Mountains for a century or two, and every inch of this space was under his control. The World Sword had no chance of resisting.

Soon, Lin Yuan's consciousness briefly made contact with the World Sword.

"Hmm?"

Through the sword, Lin Yuan faintly sensed the vast origin of the Celestial Blue World and the world consciousness that had fallen into slumber.

"As expected," he thought, unsurprised.

It was only natural that using the World Sword would come at a cost; why else would the Celestial Blue World have hesitated to unleash it? If it weren't for the invasion of the primordial yaomo tree and the threat of destruction it posed, the world might never have resorted to using the sword.

"The World Sword is a manifestation of the Celestial Blue World's most essential core," Lin Yuan mused. "Each time it is wielded, it shakes the world consciousness. Over time and with repeated use, the world consciousness eventually falls into a deep sleep."

"Of course, even when the world consciousness is slumbering, the Celestial Blue World still possesses an almost instinctual defense against external threats. However, when it comes to threats from within..."

Lin Yuan shook his head. If the world consciousness had been awake, his path to growth would not have been as smooth.

In a way, he had the primordial yaomo tree to thank for this. If not for this foreign evil god, the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance would not have frequently wielded the World Sword, eventually reaching a limit that caused the world consciousness to fall into a deep slumber.

Lin Yuan's gaze shifted downward, toward the leader of the Celestial Blue Alliance, his deputy, guardians, elders, the Four Sacred Beast Kings, and the Demon Beast Kings.

Before he gained control of the leader, Lin Yuan had been the mastermind behind the scenes in the Celestial Blue World.

But now, Lin Yuan had become the true 'uncrowned king' of the Celestial Blue World.

Time passed, and half a year went by in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Lin Yuan had the leader and the others return to Tianqing Mountain, the central region of the Celestial Blue World, to receive the worship of the masses, as was customary.

Additionally, with Lin Yuan's influence, the martial arts cultivation system officially became the most authoritative cultivation system in the Celestial Blue World, standing alongside the original system.

With Lin Yuan's guidance, it was foreseeable that in a few hundred years, the martial arts cultivation system would completely replace the old one.

Deep within the Black Mist Mountains, Lin Yuan's consciousness converged at the root region.

Staring at the cluster of burning black flames, he thought, "It's about time."

It was finally the moment to deal with the primordial yaomo tree.

Lin Yuan feared that if he waited any longer, the tree might try to forcefully sever its connection and flee.

With that in mind, Lin Yuan's thoughts converged, and he began to communicate with the primordial yaomo tree through the black flames, which served as a link between them.

While the black flames were originally a means for the primordial yaomo tree to contact Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan had also gained the ability to initiate communication.

Typically, an offspring yaomo tree like Lin Yuan would not have the authority to proactively reach out to its progenitor. However, after unlocking his talent, the primordial yaomo tree had granted Lin Yuan the freedom to contact it at any time.

It had no choice.

Lin Yuan was now its only hope, the sole descendant who could descend upon the Celestial Blue World and make up for all the losses it had endured.
