Clear Soul Yuan Dew

The center of the Purgatory Divine Kingdom.

A towering, suspended mountain range rises majestically, with flames raging beneath it. Even millions of miles away, the heat is unbearable. Black smoke billows from the crimson mountain, shooting straight into the sky.

On the other side of the mountain range, the black smoke twisted into tadpole-like characters of the Prison Race. Each character was filled with terrifying divine power and contained simple information about all the Prison Race beings imprisoned in the Purgatory Divine Kingdom.

Now.

A figure with crimson hair, whose entire body was faintly bathed in flames, stood in mid-air. He was about sixteen meters tall. Looking down at the coiled figure in front of him, he said coldly, "You mean, you saw... humans in Purgatory?"

The strange being respectfully replied, "Yes, Chi Zhe, I personally witnessed him kill Kripu."

"Interesting." The Chi Zhe in the flames sneered coldly. "It has been a long time since we, the Prison Race, have seen traces of humans in our territory... However, this is 'Purgatory,' a prison where we are held. Why would they imprison this human here as well? Is there some special reason behind this?"

He was a little confused for a moment.

The crawling, undulating figure then said, "Chi Zhe, there is one more thing. I clearly sensed nearby that the human was merely Domain Lord level, and only at the first level of the Domain Lord level!"

"A first-tier Domain Lord level?" Chi Zhe raised an eyebrow. "Kripu's strength is considered top-tier even in Purgatory. How could he be killed by a mere Domain Lord!"

His voice grew colder, and a chilling light flickered in his eyes.

If Chi Zhe hadn't known that the other party would never have the guts, he would have almost thought that the guy in front of him was just teasing him.

A first-tier Domain Lord level human killed Kripu, Metal Lifeform at the World Lord peak.

Are you kidding me?

"Did he use a special weapon?" Chi Zhe thought for a moment and asked. As far as he knew, the Prison Race had fought several wars with humans. Those humans were not only powerful, but also skilled in using special technological weapons. Even if the user was weak, those technological weapons could unleash tremendous power.

"I didn't see him." The strange life form with a human-like head shook its head without hesitation. "He killed Kripu in close combat, and Kripu was almost powerless to fight back. My feeling was that he could have killed me in one move!"

Upon hearing this...

Chi Zhe's eyes lit up slightly.

Even if it were a fabricated lie, it wouldn't be this outrageous. It seems more likely that the other party wasn't lying.

The energy levels of a first-tier Domain Lord and World Lord peak are worlds apart. The fact that this human could render Kripu completely powerless suggests that there must be an extremely astonishing secret behind it.

Chi Zhe nodded. "Your information is very valuable... From today onwards, you can enter the Flame Mountain and receive the protection of Qi Ku."

The strange life form's face lit up with joy. Its strength was almost at the bottom in the Purgatory, and it was extremely difficult to protect itself here. It survived only by relying on its escape skills.

But now that they have the protection of the strongest being in Purgatory, they no longer need to worry about these problems. In fact, given time, they may even be able to break through to immortality and leave this place.

"But!"

Chi Zhe's voice turned serious. "If what you've told me is a fabrication, you know the consequences of deceiving Qi Ku."

The strange life form trembled and quickly said, "I dare not."

Chi Zhe nodded indifferently, transformed into a streak of light, and swiftly flew into the towering mountain range scorched by flames. At the summit of the mountain range stood a magnificent palace.

Whoosh!

Chi Zhe landed in front of the palace and walked directly into the temple.

Inside the entire hall, lightning surged and electric snakes danced. Above the hall, a ball of lightning a kilometer high was visible, with a blurry, indistinct human figure standing within it.

Chi Zhe walked to the steps near the main hall and bowed respectfully. "Qi Ku, we have discovered traces of humans in Purgatory."

"Humans?" A majestic voice emanated from the sphere of lightning, filled with an invisible pressure.

"Yes," Chi Zhe said. "Furthermore, he killed 'Kripu,' World Lord peak Metal Lifeform of a World Lord, with the strength of a first- Domain Lord level. I believe that he may be hiding an extremely important secret."

Moment.

The lightning in the hall dissipated, and the lightning orb slowly faded away, leaving the hall in complete silence.

A terrifying figure emerged from the sphere of light, seated on a throne, his overwhelming aura of evil like a nightmare roaming the world.

"Find him."

Qi Ku gave the order, his voice booming yet cold.

"Yes!" Chi Zhe looked at the evil figure, his eyes filled with a kind of fanaticism.

His own strength was unmatched among World Master, and killing an ordinary World Lord peak would not be difficult. However... the person in this hall was the strongest in the Purgatory, and it is no exaggeration to say that he was the greatest genius in the entire Purgatory Abyss in countless years!

Because of his eccentric nature, Qi Ku committed a grave mistake and angered the King of the Prison Race. He was originally to be executed, but during the capture process, Qi Ku displayed astonishing strength and actually defeated an Immortal God head-on!

Because of this talent, he was ultimately sentenced to imprisonment in Purgatory. Only if he can successfully break through to immortality will he be released.

He was both terrifying and awe-inspiring.

Under Chi Zhe's arrangement, the message began to spread rapidly in Purgatory.

"What? A human has been imprisoned in Purgatory? A human? I have never actually seen a human before."

"How could this be false? Qi Ku has already given the order to capture him. Anyone who obtains information about that human must immediately relay it to Flame Mountain without fail, and will be rewarded by the Lord."

"But this is too outrageous. A first -Domain Lord level actually killed Kripu. I have fought with that guy Kripu before. His strength is even above mine, especially his defense. I had no way to deal with him. How could he die at the hands of a Domain Lord?"

"Yes, that's an absurd claim."

"But this is Qi Ku's order, and we all take it to heart. If we offend the lord, the consequences will be beyond our ability to bear."

"Too."

When Qi Ku was first imprisoned, he earned his reputation by shedding the blood of other powerful figures. Most people had personally experienced that bloody ordeal, so... in the Purgatory Divine Kingdom, the name Qi Ku was enough to quell all doubts.

Following Qi Ku's order, many powerful figures in Purgatory learned of this matter, and some even secretly began searching for Lin Yan's whereabouts.

What everyone thought would end quickly escalated over time.

"Where did the humans hide?"

"During his last battle with Gesk, the battle fluctuations were sensed by someone, who originally planned to intercept him. Even 'Chi Zhe' personally took action... but that human was just too fast, and he still managed to escape."

"It's terrifying. According to the records on the back of the Flame Mountain, many people have been killed recently and their names have been erased."

"Gesk's strength was enough to rank him among the top fifty in Purgatory, yet he is dead. Even 'Chi Zhe' couldn't do anything to him. We must eliminate this person, otherwise we will never be able to eat or sleep in peace!"

At first, the fact that a first-tier domain lord could kill Kripu was so illogical that few people believed the news.

However, now that many people have personally experienced this event, everyone truly believes that a powerful Domain Lord level human has appeared in Purgatory!

In terms of combat power, he can even be compared to invincible beings among the World Master, such as Chi Zhe.

Qi Ku was furious upon hearing this news. He personally descended from the Flame Mountain and, along with many other powerful figures, began searching for Lin Yan's whereabouts.

"How is that possible?"

"You can't find it?"

"Purgatory is so big. We have already used the World Power to search the whole place, but we have not found anything."

This result was hard for everyone to accept. Logically, with their joint search, they should have been able to find the human easily, but the human seemed to have vanished into thin air, leaving no trace.

Even "Qi Ku" himself couldn't find it.

Deep within the land of the Purgatory Divine Kingdom, in an underground cave.

No one expected that an underground dwelling would be built in this location that had been searched countless times.

Lin Yan was meditating here.

His Mini Detector was always on and concealed. This detection device could completely hide its own information. Not to mention the search by the World Power, even the search by the divine power of an ordinary Immortal God would not detect any problems.

In fact.

Lin Yan's Mini Detector wasn't high-end; it was probably only at the level used by Immortal Army Lord Peak in the Outer Domain Battlefield.

However, in these cultivation worlds of the Original Secret Realm, due to limitations, even technological development has stagnated at a rather primitive level, so Lin Yan has not really considered making a change now.

Lin Yan stood alone in the hall of his underground dwelling, shaking his head and laughing, "The Prison Race in this Purgatory reacted quickly, launching an operation against me so soon. Well, I might as well take this opportunity to strengthen myself."

Although he had only been in the Purgatory Divine Kingdom for a short time, Lin Yan had already killed all three Prison Race except for "Yaoke". As for the final mission objective... he was not so sure about it at the moment.

During this period, he had fought once with "Chi Zhe", who ranked fifth among the five invincible World Master. Although Chi Zhe had no way to deal with him, Lin Yan himself was also unable to defeat him.

Therefore, there's no need to rush into this matter; let's focus on improving ourselves first.

The task is secondary.

The main purpose is to cultivate and hone oneself.

Lin Yan pondered, "There are three main ways to strengthen my own strength now: one is to further improve the 'Black Hole Force Field' and integrate my Bio-force Field into it as well."

The Bio-force Field is a natural ability of Lin Yan's "Superhuman Bloodline," unlike Talent Secret Method, but rather a characteristic inherent in life itself.

Just like the Moshazhu Race, which is Energy Lifeform, its characteristic is that it has no fixed appearance and can change at will.

The special force field emitted by Lin Yan's body cells can distort space to counteract strong gravity and change the surrounding gravitational field. Moreover, this Bio-force Field can maintain the integrity of the body's basic particles to prevent collapse and has extensibility, allowing it to extend to other objects.

Because these force fields consume a lot of energy, Superhuman Cells have evolved the ability to absorb energy, especially "Solar Energy." The space-distorting property of the Bio-force Field makes Lin Yan himself a "Solar Energy Black Hole"-like existence.

As for the "Black Hole Force Field" that forms the basis of "The Primordial Beginning," it is also a force field-based ability, and it seems that there is a possibility that it could be integrated into Lin Yan's cultivation.

The enhancement of power is secondary; the most important thing is that Lin Yan has the opportunity to use this change to bring his control over the "Black Hole Force Field" to its peak, which is of great significance.

In short.

The stronger a person is, the more likely they are to encounter a situation where they cannot fully unleash their combat power by relying on other people's Combat Secret Technique because they are "not suitable" for them. At this stage, they need to start Self-created secret technique.

If Lin Yan truly manages to "absorb" and integrate his own Bio-force Field and talent into it, and simultaneously verify each other while cultivating "The Primordial Beginning," he can not only avoid this "unsuitable" situation, but may even be more suitable than the creator.

This applies not only to him personally.

For his descendants, if any of them have the ability to cultivate both time and space, they can learn from the path that Lin Yan has taken at this time.

"The second way to strengthen myself is through the secret technique of 'Heavenly Punishment'. Since I have chosen to develop in all aspects from the beginning, cultivating both the martial arts lineage and the spiritual lineage, I must make full use of the advantages in this regard."

The difficulty of cultivating both the martial arts lineage and the spiritual lineage is that it requires a great deal of energy, but the benefits are also obvious: it is strong in both Ranged Attack, with no weaknesses.

Furthermore, these can be combined in combat; psychic weapons, melee combat, and Soul Attack can be used simultaneously, and corresponding combat strategies can be formulated based on the opponent's strengths and weaknesses.

Lin Yan possesses the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone and the "Desireless" secret technique, so his Soul Attack should be the most powerful, but they are relatively weaker now.

"The 'Heavenly Punishment' secret technique is a sonic killing method, while the 'Heavenly Demon Bell' is a defensive secret technique, but it also has the effect of shaking the Heavenly Demon Sound Wave and shattering the enemy's Soul Attack, so it has great reference value."

In terms of the level of secret techniques, "The Heavenly Demon Bell" is naturally much higher than "Heavenly Punishment". Some of its secret techniques and essences should be learned and applied flexibly.

Lin Yan has the ability to create clones, and he possesses a wide variety of abilities and secret techniques. We should be good at discovering each other's strengths and promote each other from a macro perspective, rather than blindly and rigidly learning from each other.

"As for the Last Kind..." Lin Yan smiled slightly, "It's the most important and also the most effective!"

Neither "Black Hole Force Field" nor "Heavenly Punishment" were created overnight.

But there is one thing that is possible.

Brush!

Lin Yan's figure disappeared into the underground cave and entered A World within the World Ring.

The vast grassland.

He gazed at the tall, Green Line Devouring Worm Clone beside him, its pale silver scales faintly sacred, like a god shrouded in black mist.

Lin Yan flipped his hand, and a black briefcase appeared in his hand, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"Clear Soul Yuan Dew!" Lin Yan murmured. The black briefcase contained the precious treasure with the miraculous effect of changing the soul. Each drop was worth 30 billion points in the treasure vault, making it extremely expensive.

Lin Yan obtained a total of three drops!

It can be said to be the most valuable treasure he can currently offer.

Snap!

The black briefcase was opened, revealing three crystals inside. Each crystal contained a small grass that resembled black jade, surrounded by a thin layer of blue smoke. On the Ink Jade Grass, there were traces of a captivating, translucent blue-green liquid.

"Clear Soul Yuan Dew" is the essence extracted from the Clear Soul Bamboo itself, but it can only be absorbed by this Ink Jade Grass. Moreover... after being transformed by the Ink Jade Grass, its intense nature can be smoothed out, turning it into a gentle soul treasure.

Lin Yan's eyes burned with fervor as he took out one of the crystals.

"Sizzle..." The Transparent Crystal in the palm of the hand was attacked by a psychic force as sharp as needles, and it shattered directly, revealing the Ink Jade Grass inside.

Wow!

The swirling blue smoke seemed to possess a spirit, suddenly gathering into the Ink Jade Grass. Then, the color of the Ink Jade Grass itself slowly faded, and for a moment, everything around paled in comparison, with only the dew on the tips of the grass being the most dazzling!

A radiant, bluish-green light!

A rich, intoxicating fragrance filled the air, and the grass on the vast grassland around them began to grow wildly, not just growing simply, but in that instant, transforming from ordinary weeds into Planetary level Plant Lifeform!

The core source of all this vitality was that drop of green dew; the mere scent it emitted made Lin Yan feel his soul beginning to undergo some changes.

Lin Yan's eyes shone brightly. "As expected of a soul treasure that is effective even against Universe Venerable, I hope it won't disappoint me."

"As long as my soul undergoes further transformation, I can cultivate the 'Desirelessness' secret technique to a higher level! And I can use various Soul Secret Technique more easily and naturally."

Lin Yan no longer hesitated. A drop of bluish-green dew fell on the center of the forehead of the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone, and the Clear Soul Yuan Dew instantly seeped into its body.

With a surge of life force, the bluish-green dew quickly flowed into the crystal core that Lin Yan had placed inside the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone, and seeped into the soul that had already condensed into a crystal.

The bluish-green dew, upon entering his soul, did not dissolve immediately. Instead, it continuously emitted a pale blue aura, which seemed endless and constantly merged into Lin Yan's soul.

His soul underwent a rapid transformation, and his Soul Crystal Ball began to faintly shimmer with a pale blue hue.

Wow!

In that instant, Lin Yan felt as if all the scenery around him had disappeared, and he found himself in an endless world of mountains and rivers, with the wind whispering and the bamboo forest rustling.

Lin Yan looked astonished. "Even the process of absorbing the Clear Soul Yuan Dew and the light blue energy flowing into the soul naturally creates an illusion, and... this illusion is quite perfect."

This was something he hadn't anticipated.

Even with his extraordinary willpower, he was still trapped in an illusion. If it were someone else, they would probably remain in this illusion until they had fully absorbed the Clear Soul Yuan Dew.

"It's wonderful."

"This feeling is something that the Nine-Colored Eye Fruit could never compare to back then." Lin Yan clearly felt the transformation of his soul, and his heart was filled with joy.

He smiled and said, "Then let's begin."

"As long as I make some progress in these three areas, my strength will increase significantly."

He separated a portion of his consciousness to cultivate the "Desireless" secret technique, Lin Yan's main body began to study how to integrate the Bio-force Field into the "Black Hole Force Field," while the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone began to seriously cultivate the "Heavenly Punishment" secret technique.

Lin Yan then began his meditation practice there.
