Chapter 428: Entering the Black Demon Abyss, Lingya's Metamorphosis

"Is the Jiang family still poor now?"

Qiyuan, dressed in a crimson robe, descended with unparalleled handsomeness.

His appearance moved Jiang Ruhua.

She couldn't understand why she hadn't found him this breathtakingly handsome before.

"With the presence of seniors, the Jiang family is no longer poor!" Jiang Ruhua replied without a hint of embarrassment.

However, recalling his previous relentless pursuit of the Blood Robe Sword God, she felt a slight warmth on her face.

Fortunately, the Blood Robe Sword God didn't seem to mind.

Otherwise, if he had casually released a hint of his power back then, she might have been in trouble.

At this moment, Qiyuan's gaze swept across the area.

This once ordinary city had hardly any Purple Mansion cultivators in the past.

Now, with a simple scan, he detected more than a dozen Yin Gods.

Suddenly, Qiyuan realized something.

"You've been living in the Netherworld, and in a sense, you've been under my care. It hasn't been easy for you."

These people had been nurtured by the Great Calamity, their lives hanging in the balance.

Now, with the Great Calamity's demise, the threat from Taohuang Palace still loomed.

They couldn't leave the Canglan Realm, nor could they ascend to the Upper World.

In a way, the owner of the farm had changed from the Great Calamity to Qiyuan.

"Nurtured? I've been living comfortably in the Canglan Realm!" Jiang Ruhua responded without hesitation.

After all, for a Divine Infant True Lord like him, living in the Canglan Realm now was no different from before.

The surrounding Yin Gods' expressions changed upon hearing Qiyuan's words.

"Senior has saved our lives, how dare we complain?"

These Yin Gods were afraid, worried that Qiyuan might be hinting at something specific.

Hearing this, Qiyuan's expression remained calm.

Was this the legendary 'accompanying a ruler like accompanying a tiger'?

His casual words had them all guessing cautiously.

"The will of the senior is the will of the Canglan Realm. We, the Yin Gods, are here to serve," the Yin God Venerables said respectfully, almost as if the process of engraving the word 'loyalty' on their faces.

"No need for that. I'm a democratic person, and I have no ambitions of being an autocratic emperor."

After all, being an emperor is exhausting, and I can't even enjoy listening to music in pleasure houses. It's not suitable for someone with social anxiety like me."

With Qiyuan's current strength, if he could return to Blue Star, becoming a chieftain or even an emperor would be a breeze.

But he had no interest in such positions.

Moreover, he didn't want to engage in 'poverty alleviation' either. He had never won an online argument on Blue Star.

Seeing a 'brother' driving a luxury SUV would only infuriate him.

The Yin God Venerables present exchanged glances at this scene.

Regarding Qiyuan's words about democracy and not being autocratic, they chose to ignore them.

They had privately discussed the Blood Robe Sword God's personality and character extensively during this period.

After all, he was the ruler of the Canglan Realm, a formidable figure hanging over their heads.

Their discussions were lively, yet they couldn't reach a clear conclusion.

They had arrived at a terrifying realization:

The Blood Robe Sword God's behavior was peculiar...

He seemed to have... issues! But how could a Yangshen cultivator at such a high level possibly have mental problems, acting crazy and erratic? After all, even a fart from such a prominent figure would surely hold deep meaning, as if they were setting a grand flag.

So, they arrived at the best approach: to flatter and please him, following the 'crazy' image he had crafted.

"An emperor's autocracy... oppressing the people, how dare they be compared to the senior!" The Palace Lord of the Dao Seeking Palace immediately began to flatter.

"Yes, the word 'emperor' is unworthy of describing the senior."

The Yin Gods continued their flattery.

Qiyuan felt a sense of satisfaction.

No wonder ancient emperors preferred sycophants; these words were indeed pleasing to the ear.

"Ahem, that's a bit exaggerated. Everyone is equal, why can't an emperor be compared to me?"

"Oh, right, the atmosphere in the Canglan Realm still needs improvement. We must foster harmony among everyone!" Qiyuan said seriously, "Otherwise, hearing foul language every day will affect our mood."

"Yes, your command!"

The other Yin Gods quickly bowed.

As for Qiyuan's previous mention of democracy and his lack of autocracy, they chose to ignore it.

To rectify the cultivation world's atmosphere, that was not autocracy...

...

"The Black Demon Abyss is divided into seven divisions, and the one I'm in is the Purple Origin Division," Niu Jiao Sister, dressed in a purple robe, stood tall with a carefree smile.

After receiving Qiyuan from the Demon Abyss, she led him to the headquarters of the Black Demon Abyss.

"Each division has at least one Great Principle Realm cultivator. How powerful is your Black Demon Abyss?" Qiyuan exclaimed in surprise.

It was known that the Moon Goddess Palace only had two Great Principle Realm cultivators.

Taohuang Palace seemed to have only three.

But the Black Demon Abyss had at least seven, which left him astonished.

"Hmph, besides the Supreme Reason Council, our Black Demon Abyss has the most Yangshen in the Six Heavens, a total of nine!" Purple Origin Snow proudly puffed out her chest, her face filled with arrogance.

"So, is the Dark Demon Abyss stronger than the Taohuang Palace?"

"Then, can you find someone to help me destroy the Taohuang Palace?" Qi Yuan blinked his eyes, which sparkled with mischief.

"It's so much easier to rely on others and live a comfortable life."

"Cough, cough..." Purple Origin Snow shifted uncomfortably, "The ancestors of the Dark Demon Abyss aren't your real fathers, why should they help you?"

In reality, although the Dark Demon Abyss had more Supreme Enlightenments, in terms of strength, it was significantly weaker than the Taohuang Palace.

The master of the Taohuang Palace had attained the Supreme Principle.

The Nine Elders of the Dark Demon Abyss, although they had reached the Supreme Enlightenment, were not a match for the master of the Taohuang Palace.

The level of Supreme Enlightenment one attained was directly related to their combat prowess.

Ordinary Supreme Enlightenment powerhouses, even with varying levels of understanding, had varying degrees of strength, but the difference was not significant.

Although they could defeat their opponents, they couldn't annihilate them!

In the Sixth Heaven, the Supreme Enlightenment was already at its peak.

Immortal and indestructible, their physical bodies and divine souls were invulnerable.

Even when stars fell, their bodies remained untouched.

It could be said that even suicide was impossible.

Even if a peerless powerhouse wielded a Creation Artifact, they could only defeat or suppress their opponents, not annihilate them.

But...

The Supreme Enlightenment powerhouses who had attained the Supreme Principle could break this law and kill the Yang Deity in the Supreme Enlightenment Realm!

"If I were their father, would they help me?" Qi Yuan mused.

Purple Origin Snow couldn't hold back anymore and said with a hint of fear, "You're so bold to say such things. What if the ancestors hear you? We're already in the territory of the Dark Demon Abyss!"

"Anything is possible. What if... I am their father?" Qi Yuan laughed heartily.

In this world, anything was possible.

For example, I could be the father of the Dark Demon Abyss ancestors, one of the many possibilities.

Purple Origin Snow looked at Qi Yuan with a complex gaze, "How long have you had this illness?"

Initially, she thought Qi Yuan had a unique personality, which was quite normal for someone with powerful bloodlines.

But now, it seemed like more than just a unique personality; it was an illness!

"What illness? How do you know I have this illness? Are you going to keep me as your lover?" Qi Yuan asked in quick succession, blinking his eyes.

"Hmph, I'm about to become a Yang Deity, reflecting the heavens. Keeping you as my lover... that's nothing." Purple Origin Snow spoke with a booming voice.

However, remembering that Qi Yuan considered the master of the Taohuang Palace as a formidable enemy, she added, "But I'd rather be your concubine." Purple Origin Snow giggled.

"You're so beautiful, and your thoughts are equally beautiful!" Qi Yuan was speechless.

"You really think you can defeat the master of the Taohuang Palace? And soon, I'll become a Yang Deity. A Yang Deity as your concubine to warm your bed, and you're still not satisfied? What's your cultivation level?" Purple Origin Snow asked, dissatisfied.

Qi Yuan was left speechless by her words, feeling ashamed.

In the 169th chapter of the error-free version!

"I'm... at the Purple Mansion Realm."

He replied dejectedly.

Indeed, he was only at the Purple Mansion Realm.

The first Purple Mansion Realm cultivator of the Divine Radiance Sect.

This title sounded impressive in the Hundred Nations, where he could wield power and sleep with princesses, empresses, and even emperors as he pleased.

But in the Upper World, it seemed rather weak.

"No, is it fun to pretend to be weak? Isn't your true cultivation level also at the Great Throne Realm?" Purple Origin Snow muttered.

Hearing this, Qi Yuan felt even more ashamed.

He displayed the strength of the Great Throne Realm on the outside, which made it easier for him to travel in the Immortal World.

Initially, he also wanted to enjoy the treatment of being superior.

In the end, even the Great Throne Realm was humiliated.

Unfortunately, he was only at the Purple Mansion Realm, lacking the confidence to refute her.

Finally, he sighed helplessly, "Sigh, the atmosphere in the Immortal World is terrible. Everyone is equal, yet you discriminate against me, a Purple Mansion Realm cultivator."

Since he couldn't compete in cultivation level, Qi Yuan tried to find moral flaws instead.

"I can't be bothered to argue with you." Purple Origin Snow was in a good mood.

She could only bully Blood Robe now.

With Blood Robe's powerful bloodline talent, the treatment he would receive in the Dark Demon Abyss would surely be better than hers.

Moreover, he might even become a Supreme Enlightenment in the future, or perhaps... even higher!

"Alright, Purple Origin has arrived. Let's go, don't talk nonsense. If the ancestors sense us, we're done for!" Purple Origin Snow said softly, and her figure disappeared.

At the same time, outside the Purple Origin's sky, two pairs of eyes peered through countless spaces, observing Purple Origin Snow and Qi Yuan.

"Old Six, is this the new talent you recruited? He doesn't look that impressive."

The speaker was the Third Elder of the Nine Elders of the Dark Demon Abyss, his body shrouded in darkness, with only a pair of eyes visible.

Within the darkness, the Great Dao seemed to flow, and the Supreme Enlightenment was inscribed, making it impossible to look directly at him.

"His bloodline is extraordinary, with a potential that can reach the Great Supreme Enlightenment." Ziyuan Zu spoke, his eyes gleaming with pride.

"Great Supreme Enlightenment..." The three elders' eyes deepened, "Indeed, he is an exceptional seedling."

This bloodline was already the pinnacle of the Dark Demon Abyss, enough to make the Black Demon Ancestor's blood boil.

"It seems that Heaven's Mandate is favoring our Dark Demon Abyss." Ziyuan Zu's eyes revealed a look of astonishment, "Among the main lineage, the Black Sword... his bloodline is too exaggerated."

"He is the heart and soul of our esteemed master, and we in the Dark Demon Abyss must prepare for the Linya Molting..." The three elders' expressions turned solemn as they spoke of this.

Their master was one of the seven elders of the Dark Demon Abyss and its foremost leader.

"Linya Molting..." Elder Six's face changed repeatedly, "Even powerful forces like Taohuang Palace and Moon Goddess Palace may not be able to fully withstand the Linya Molting. Can he handle it?"

"At the very least, if he comprehends the Supreme Principle, we will have some confidence when facing the Linya Molting," Elder Three said, his voice filled with sighs. "The Principle Debate Conference is about to begin, and the Black Sword will be participating.

Before that, let's gather all eight of us to help him with Blood Ascension Cultivation, assisting him in attaining the Supreme Principle as soon as possible!"

Elder Six nodded slightly. "Agreed."

Blood Ascension Cultivation required the refinement of a special pill, and even for such an existence, it would consume a certain amount of Primordial Energy.

But in the end, it was for the creation of a Great Supreme Enlightenment who comprehended the Supreme Principle. Such a sacrifice was necessary.

"The seedling you have your eyes on is not bad either. If there's any leftover pill, we can give it to him.

Once he becomes a Great Supreme Enlightenment, he can serve us like the Black Sword and receive his protection." Elder Three spoke calmly.

Ziyuan Zu was reluctant, "The Blood Cloak is, after all, a disciple of Ziyuan Heaven. Why should he settle for leftovers? He must receive the same treatment as the Black Sword. His talent also has the potential for Great Supreme Enlightenment, why should he be so far behind?"

"There are differences even among those with Great Supreme Enlightenment," Elder Three stated indifferently.

"He must have the same treatment, leftovers are unacceptable. Otherwise, I won't refine this pill!"

"At most... I'll give up my share of the Black Demon Ancestor's blood for this year!" Elder Six shouted, showing none of the demeanor befitting a Yang Deity.

Elder Three glanced at Ziyuan Zu, a bit surprised.

The Black Demon Ancestor's blood was extremely precious to them.

He was a bit suspicious, his face turning serious as he asked, "Elder Six, tell me honestly, is his bloodline potential... not just an ordinary Great Supreme Enlightenment?"

Otherwise, why would the stingy Elder Six give up his yearly share of the Black Demon Ancestor's blood?

"Hehe, it's just an ordinary Great Supreme Enlightenment, far inferior to the Black Sword." Elder Six laughed, his smile unseemly.

Elder Three narrowed his eyes, and the aura around him suddenly changed, becoming even more profound.

His gaze pierced through the sky, landing on Ziyuan Heaven's Qi Yuan. It seemed he wanted to see right through Qi Yuan.

But Elder Three shook his head.

"Ziyuan Heaven is your domain, I can't see anything."

"Once he leaves Ziyuan Heaven, his aura will definitely be concealed by you. Sigh..." Elder Three was reluctant, "It seems you've really found a treasure. Perhaps... he's only slightly inferior to the Black Sword."

"He is indeed inferior to the Black Sword," Ziyuan Zu said, his voice trailing off.

"Hmph, even if he's only slightly inferior to the Black Sword, you're still not satisfied? He surpasses all nine of us elders, and in the Sixth Heaven, he's among the top ten in terms of talent." Elder Three's eyes lit up as he spoke.

How many Great Supreme Enlightenments were there in the Sixth Heaven?

Elder Three's expression turned serious, "Indeed... this matter cannot be revealed, otherwise... if our Dark Demon Abyss has two Great Supreme Enlightenments..."

"You've done well in keeping this secret.

Once the news of the Black Sword spreads, many eyes will be on our Dark Demon Abyss. If it's about the Blood Cloak..."

"This time, for the Blood Ascension Cultivation, I will preside over it. I'll secretly set aside one-third of the share, and if you don't reveal this matter, I won't give you your portion of the Black Demon Ancestor's blood."

"One-third is too little!"

"Hmph, the Black Sword's talent should be ranked first in the Sixth Heaven.

This Blood Cloak, even if he's strong, is probably only comparable to that person in Divine Luo Heaven. How can he compare to the Black Sword?"

"Unless you let him challenge the Black Sword, and if he wins, I'll secretly set aside two-thirds for him. How about that?"

"You..." Ziyuan Zu was enraged, "You want a Grand Deity to challenge a Yang Deity, do you have any shame?"

"This matter is decided!" Elder Three said, and in that moment, his figure dissipated without a trace.

Beyond the sky, only a black shadow remained.

Time passed, and in Ziyuan Zu's eyes, a glimmer of determination flashed.

He muttered to himself, "First in the Sixth Heaven?"

"Elder Three, you really should open your eyes and see the truth."
