The Diary of You Ruo: A Glorious Battle Against the Demonic Cult!

The Starry Great Forest, the Lake of Life's Bottom Forbidden Land.

"Your Majesty, the Empress has arrived."

Ling Tian spoke respectfully.

The space enveloped by the Breath of Exalted Life shimmered, and a figure swept in, coalescing into a graceful silhouette.

"Emperor Heaven, all of you may withdraw."

You Ruo said softly.

Ling Tian and the other great ministers hastily retreated, leaving only the regal You Ruo and the Empress of the Extreme North standing face to face.

"Empress, it has been a long time since we last met."

You Ruo smiled faintly.

The Empress stood there silently; she could sense the restraint emanating from You Ruo's body, a power originating from the peak of the divine realm. Even though the other party was severely wounded, that sacred majesty still stirred her heart.

"Emperor Heaven and the others have already withdrawn."

You Ruo finally spoke, her voice like pearls falling on a jade plate, clear and distant. "Empress, you did not come all this way just to pay a visit."

"There must be something important..."

The Empress was silent for a moment, her gaze roaming over You Ruo's form, cautiously searching for some point of connection.

Finally, she took a deep breath, her tone carrying a hint of exploratory gravity. "Your Majesty, in recent days, while cultivating in the Extreme North, I happened to glimpse some matters concerning humanity."

"Those matters... have deepened my understanding of the current human world, and also made me realize the differences between our two races, so I wished to... discuss them with you."

At these words, the Empress, who was as serene as an ancient moon, had a flicker of surprise pass across her purple-golden face.

That was a look of hesitation, of wanting to speak yet stopping.

That expression was a complete departure from her usual composed state of mind!

Indeed!

"Deep exploration."

You Ruo's lips curled into a faint, elusive arc, her tone becoming playful.

"So, you want to discuss with me... that diary?"

This time, without restraint!

She had easily spoken of the existence of the diary!

She truly understood—the Empress also possessed a diary, and her guess had not been wrong!

The Empress's breath caught sharply.

Within those eternal, icy pupils, a hint of surprise and joy surfaced.

She was right.

"Indeed, you too... have obtained that diary?"

The Empress's voice trembled slightly.

You Ruo did not directly reply, but instead waved her hand, and a book radiating a faint light materialized in her palm.

Following that, the Empress, as if setting aside some heavy burden, similarly produced a—

Diary.

"Buzz—!"

The moment the two diaries appeared, they resonated with each other, producing a strange and mysterious sensation, as waves of profound and arcane ripples surged in the vicinity!

[Resonance successful! You Ruo gains a special diary achievement: Wound Recovery Speed!]

[Resonance successful! Empress gains a special diary achievement: Cultivation Breakthrough Seventy Thousand Years, Heavenly Tribulation Exempted!]

Two streaks of dazzling golden light instantly enveloped You Ruo and the Empress.

You Ruo only felt a warm, watery torrent of immense energy surge into her body, and the severe injuries that had plagued her for countless years—

The remnants of divine realm laws that had lingered within her were actually healing at a visible rate!

"This..."

The degree of recovery even surpassed her millennia of bitter cultivation!

And the benefits the Empress received were even more astonishing.

Her cultivation instantly crossed that heavenly chasm, her aura becoming unfathomably deep, and the shadow of the Falling Calamity vanished.

The Heavenly Tribulation—

Had actually been exempted!

She had entered an entirely new realm, far stronger than before!

"This... what kind of power is this?"

The Empress, feeling the surging vitality within her, emerged from her body.

"If the sentiment is shared, it can overcome the power of heaven and earth."

You Ruo felt the large-scale healing from the light of the Bull Python, let out a long sigh, and looked at Ling Yun, her gaze also softening a few points.

"This is the change brought by that Ling Ke. The diary in his hand contains power beyond the throne."

"Your Majesty, you... have you met Ling Yun?"

You Ruo asked tentatively. At this moment, her curiosity about Ling Ke had reached its peak.

After all, she was the current Lonely One.

She didn't have much confidence that she could safely survive the seventy-thousand-year tribulation of heaven and earth.

She would most likely fall!

Ling Yun's diary could be said to have truly saved her life, and moreover, the sentiment within it was shared.

You Ruo shook her head regretfully.

"Emperor Tian has passed away. I have not met him. He should be in the human Tianxuan Empire."

You Ruo heard this, a trace of curiosity flashing in her clear and cold eyes.

"I would very much like to meet him, but unfortunately... my identity is too special. It's not convenient for me to appear in the human world."

"I'm afraid it would cause panic."

"With this diary, perhaps in the future it will grant us even more astonishing opportunities!"

You Ruo nodded in agreement.

"Perhaps... enough to change the fate of the entire Bull Python clan!"

Tianxuan Imperial Palace, side hall of the Imperial Garden.

The imperial court meeting was still in heated session, with the Grand Emperor and the Prime Minister meeting like old friends.

As for the members of the court who had arrived early, Ling Ke and the others were specially resting in a side hall nearby.

At this moment, Ling Ke was leaning back in a nanmu chair, the tea in his hand still steaming.

"In a place like this, even if I wanted to write in my diary, I probably couldn't come up with anything..."

Ling Yun sighed.

This imperial court atmosphere was truly too oppressive.

Staying here every day, how could anyone bear it?

"You kid, why are you so ungrateful?"

Just then, a purple-robed figure silently appeared at the door. That ink-purple long robe and the imposing aura were none other than Bi Cang Bo.

"You're quite carefree. What are you doing here?"

Bi Cang Bo said loudly as he walked over and sat down.

But his tone carried a hint of fatigue, his brows slightly furrowed, as if enduring some kind of pain.

Ling Yun glanced at him, and his originally casual expression suddenly turned serious.

"That old poison's toxicity... seems to have worsened."

"Unexpectedly, after cultivating the Tianxuan Code, Volume One, I can actually perceive his poison."

In his perception, the emerald-green poisonous mist surrounding Bi Cang Bo was actually tinged with a faint, decaying death aura.

"Old poison, if your poison isn't resolved soon, I'm afraid..."

Ling Yun put down the teacup, his voice not loud, yet it exploded like thunder in Bi Cang Bo's ears.

Bi Cang Bo's hand holding the teacup suddenly trembled. He stared fixedly at Ling Ke, his eyes full of shock.

"You... you can see through this old man's poison?"

His poison technique backlash was a hidden ailment of this old man. Even the sealed Tianqiong might not be able to see through it at a glance.

But Ling Ke, this youth not yet fifty, had seen through his life's secret with just one sentence!

"Not only can I see through it."

Ling Yun stood up and walked in front of Bi Cang Bo. In those deep and profound eyes, the words of the Tianxuan Code faintly flowed.

"I can also see that the poison has already invaded your flesh and blood. If you don't find a way to suppress it soon, this body of poison techniques of yours will likely become your death warrant."

Bi Cang Bo's breathing instantly became rough.
