An Emperor Was Nothing Special!

In the void of the world, a pair of eyes carrying the Dao charm of laws watched Shi Yaoyao with amused interest.

Bai Yu had not expected that this group leader did not know the method for refining magical artifacts at all.

After all, because Bai Yu had done it deliberately, the Sky Mirror was actually extremely easy to refine. As long as one understood the refining method, even a cultivator who had just stepped onto the path of cultivation could fully refine it.

Who would have thought that this group leader did not understand the refining method at all?

That was outrageous.

Fortunately, he had left behind a Law Dao Body in this world. Otherwise, Shi Yaoyao might have been frustrated enough to cry...

With a thought from his Divine Sense, the Sky Mirror transformed into a streak of divine light and entered Shi Yaoyao's body. Then, a method for refining magical artifacts appeared in her mind.

"Th-this... is this... the refining method?!"

Shi Yaoyao was startled as well. Somewhat dumbfounded, she scratched her head.

Did this kid have a lot of question marks?

No longer paying attention to the bewildered Shi Yaoyao, Bai Yu's Law Dao Body directly took control of this world's Origin Law, becoming an existence akin to the Heavenly Dao of this world.

As for why Bai Yu had left behind a Law Dao Body in this world?

Naturally, it was because of Shi Yaoyao.

Well, Bai Yu felt that he ought to keep a close eye on this Chat Group's leader.

It was not particularly troublesome. In fact, Bai Yu had considered—and even tried—whether he could seize Shi Yaoyao's position as group leader, or even take the Chat Group Golden Finger for himself.

Unfortunately, even after Bai Yu had thoroughly examined Shi Yaoyao's soul, he had not discovered the core essence of the Chat Group Golden Finger.

As for whether he could seize the Golden Finger by killing Shi Yaoyao?

After giving it some thought, he ultimately did not do it.

He could not predict whether, if Shi Yaoyao died, the Chat Group would disappear outright or seek out another host. Nor could he know whether the Chat Group would kick him out.

If killing Shi Yaoyao resulted in him being kicked out of the Chat Group, the loss would be enormous.

Thus, Bai Yu ultimately did not kill Shi Yaoyao directly. However, he still left behind a Law Dao Body to take over this world and keep a close watch on the group leader.

Shi Yaoyao did not know that an unseen gaze was watching her. After her brief confusion passed, she was utterly overjoyed!

Following the refining method, Shi Yaoyao easily refined the Sky Mirror and gained complete control over it.

With a thought, the Sky Mirror appeared before her, circling around her body and emitting faint divine light of laws.

"So powerful! This fairy has graduated!!!"

"Hehe! Even an Emperor is nothing special!!!"

"Immortal Venerable boss is forever the GOAT!!!"

Shi Yaoyao was incredibly puffed up right now, but she now had the strength to back it up.

Only after truly taking control of the Sky Mirror did Shi Yaoyao realize just how terrifying it was.

With a thought, Shi Yaoyao brought the Sky Mirror with her, tore through space, and entered the void of the world. She walked through the void, crossing vast distances in a single step.

When she emerged from the void, she was no longer in her room. Instead, she had arrived near a deserted island in the depths of the sea.

Shi Yaoyao stood atop a smooth reef protruding from the surface of the ocean.

"Hehe, I crossed an entire region in an instant, going from the Eastern Region to the Northern Region... This seems to be the Black Nether Sea of the Northern Region, right? I heard there are terrifying Great Sage-level demon beasts in the Black Nether Sea. I wonder whether that's true..."

Looking at the ink-black seawater around her, Shi Yaoyao knew where she was. Only the Black Nether Sea of the Northern Region had seawater that was both black and putrid.

This black water was no simple matter. It contained horrifying corrosive power and was extremely dangerous. Even sixth-rank Grandmasters would die upon contact. The Black Nether Sea was truly a forbidden land.

"Interesting. A mere sixth-rank cultivator has appeared in the depths of the Black Nether Sea. Little one of the Human Race, how did you get here?"

At that moment, a deep, hoarse voice rang beside Shi Yaoyao's ear. It seemed to be right before her, yet also incomparably distant.

Shi Yaoyao's expression changed in surprise, but she was not particularly afraid. She had merely been startled by the sudden voice.

Shi Yaoyao was as steady as they came right now.

"Strange, strange. You are not afraid?"

That voice seemed quite surprised by Shi Yaoyao's utter lack of fear.

Shi Yaoyao was only a sixth-rank Minor Grandmaster, yet she had appeared in the depths of the Black Nether Sea? And she was so fearless?

Even Saints of the Human Race would not come to the Black Nether Sea without reason. Moreover, even a Saint would not be this calm in the depths of the Black Nether Sea, would they?

The surroundings were quiet, or rather, deathly silent. A cool breeze gently brushed across the tranquil sea, stirring ripples upon its surface. It was only a pity that there was no warm sunlight.

Well, of course, the pitch-black seawater was not much to look at either. It made people feel uncomfortable at first glance.

"Goodbye."

Shi Yaoyao was a little bored and prepared to leave.

After all, she had seen what she wanted to see. The world was so vast, and she wanted to explore it. Besides, the scenery of the Black Nether Sea was terrible, not to mention the nauseatingly putrid seawater.

Shi Yaoyao did not want to remain here for another moment.

She took a step forward. The Sky Mirror in her body flashed with divine light, and Shi Yaoyao was enveloped in divine light from the laws of space. Then, she directly tore through the void and vanished from where she stood.

"Gasp! She tore through space?! Impossible!!!"

The voice completely lost its composure, filled with intense shock and even horror.

At that moment, a black figure appeared where Shi Yaoyao had been standing after several flickers.

This flickering was not Spatial Teleportation, but an effect similar to flickering produced entirely by the figure's own speed.

"This... really was a spatial fluctuation... How is that possible... How could she..."

"I am a Great Sage, yet even I can no longer shake space. She is only sixth-rank... What gives her the right..."

This Demon Race Great Sage's mentality completely collapsed.

Not long ago, some unknown change had occurred in heaven and earth, causing space and time to become absolute taboos. No one could affect them even in the slightest.

Originally, eighth-rank Venerables could tear open space and perform Spatial Teleportation. But now, even he, a Great Sage, could not shake space at all.

This change had utterly bewildered all the top powerhouses of the world, followed by endless panic. Some whose mental fortitude was weaker had even broken down outright, utterly unable to accept it.

After all, the use of space was simply too convenient and powerful.

Simply tearing through space to travel was already incredibly convenient for journeys. No matter how fast one flew, could it possibly be faster than traveling through space?

Take this Demon Race Great Sage, for example. In the past, leaving the Black Nether Sea had been exceedingly convenient for him. He could tear open space and go anywhere he wished. Even crossing an entire region to another region took only an instant.

But now?

Even leaving the vast Black Nether Sea, no matter how fast he flew, took a full minute...

After all, because Spatial Teleportation had existed before, the powerhouses of this world had not studied flight techniques much. Thus, even Great Sages were not particularly fast in flight.

As for crossing an entire region, even for a Great Sage, the time required would be... tsk...

"Could she... be above the Great Sage realm? No... impossible!!!"

He could not accept it, nor could he believe it. Above Great Sages were Great Emperors!

As a Great Sage, he knew very clearly that this world currently could not accommodate an Emperor at all!

Saints were already the limit!

Though he was merely a Great Sage now, above Great Sages were Saint Kings, and only above Saint Kings were Great Emperors.

Shi Yaoyao had no idea that a Demon Race Great Sage had suffered a complete mental breakdown because of her. Right now, she was having the time of her life, exactly like a child who had not yet grown up.

Ever since transmigrating to this world, Shi Yaoyao's nerves had remained constantly tense. She had never truly relaxed.

Especially before obtaining the Chat Group, every single moment had been torment.
