Outside the Heart Source Demon Palace.

Fusheng yawned as he watched the boxes of sex toys suddenly fly in through the door, completely bewildered.

These things suddenly flew in on their own, rolling haphazardly into the doorway, but the people who came back with them were nowhere to be seen.

"These little brats are usually chattering away, they should all be here by now, why are they..." He sensed something was wrong. Wu Anning got up from his cross-legged position in the corner and, together with Liu Xuezhen, went forward to check the boxes.

The two of them worked together to move a box, straightened it, opened the lid, and looked inside.

Inside were rows and rows of strangely shaped, smooth objects resembling vibrators.

"This is...!?" Wu Anning was somewhat taken aback.

"I'll do it!" Lin Hui rushed down the stairs and glanced at the boxes.

While practicing the sword technique, he suddenly sensed the fleeting presence of many disciples, and subtle fluctuations emanated from the Wind Chime.

It was clear that disciples were exchanging ideas at close range.

But now that I've come down, I don't see anyone.

He stepped forward and opened a box.

The surfaces of these dusty boxes looked as if they had endured some unknown torment, all appearing charred.

With a snap, the box lid opened, revealing the same items Wu Anning and the other person had unpacked: Dragon Horn Shedding. Moreover, these were Dragon Horn Shedding with rather bizarre shapes.

At this moment, Wu Anning and Liu Xuezhen guessed something from the shape, their faces flushed slightly, and they put the book down, not daring to look at it any longer.

Unlike Xia Si and other psychopaths, they had only recently left their original world and their upbringing was relatively stable, so the basic moral values and sense of shame they had cultivated since childhood had not yet deteriorated.

"Isn't this the kind of toy girls use for 'that'? There are so many of them," Liu Xuezhen whispered to Wu Anning.

"The teacher likes it," Wu Anning replied quietly.

"But so many... This... Does the teacher have such a perverted hobby?" Liu Xuezhen recalled how Lin Hui had remained unmoved no matter how she hinted at it, and suddenly began to doubt herself.

She gave him such hints back then, why didn't he make a move on her? Could it be that he was just too charming?

"I'm going out for a bit. You two keep an eye on the house." Lin Hui's voice entered their minds at that moment.

"Yes!" The two men quickly stood at attention and responded, watching the boxes fly out of the first level of the Demon Palace with Lin Hui, both marveling at the sight. Outside the palace, in the purple mist...

Lin Hui already knew that a group of his disciples had encountered trouble.

It wasn't a guess on his part; a pure white letter flew out precisely from somewhere and landed right in front of him.

After he caught it, he saw a line of words clearly written on it.

"Exchange it for the warrants." Ping Yun's aura flashed briefly at the end, instantly igniting the entire piece of paper and burning it to ashes.

"Interesting..." Lin Hui casually found a spot, waved his hand to open all the boxes, and then absorbed the Existence Force from all the Dragon Horn Shedding. The golden Existence Force, which only he could see, began to flow like water, meandering and continuously flowing into his chest. Meanwhile, the remaining time for evolution in the Blood Seal began to decrease rapidly.

Soon, once half of the Dragon Horn Shedding had been absorbed, the remaining time of the Blood Seal was completely reset to zero.

"Evolution complete."

The moment the prompt popped up, all the relevant information about the Flash Extreme Seal —its acquisition method, development process, and activation method—flowed into Lin Hui's mind. " Flash Extreme Seal: No cultivation required. Obtained directly through the Sect Master's bestowal of the seal. Once obtained, intelligence instantly triples from its original base, permanently. Closing the seal technique afterward will not affect it, unless one betrays the sect."

Evolvable branch: 3.

There are further evolution options, but Lin Hui doesn't have time to check them right now.

Without hesitation, he took the first turn.

Buzz!

The next second, a dazzling, multicolored light emerged from the surrounding void, rapidly constructing countless unrecognizable tadpole-sized characters. These multicolored characters formed a giant cylinder, spinning rapidly around him.

After more than ten breaths, the colored characters and light pillars slowly faded and disappeared.

Lin Hui was left floating alone in the same spot, his expression solemn.

"Is this what it feels like to have your intelligence tripled?" He felt as if his entire mind and body had been cleansed at that moment.

Everything in my memory seems to come back to me easily.

Previously unresolved questions about cultivation suddenly became clear at this moment.

In a daze, Lin Hui felt as if some kind of change was taking place within him.

He wasn't sure what the changes were, but he could clearly sense that they were rapidly coalescing, materializing, and becoming something concrete. His gaze unconsciously drifted towards the Blood Seal.

Sure enough, new special effects kept appearing in the pop-up interface of Blood Seal.

"Due to a significant increase in intelligence, you have gained the special effect: Prodigy of Comprehension."

You have gained the special effect: Never Forget.

You receive the effect: Inspiration.

You have gained the special effect: Mental Arithmetic.

Four new special effects have been added all at once.

Lin Hui glanced at them briefly; they were all traits that had automatically evolved after the intelligence was enhanced.

At this moment, as he recalled the various cultivation methods and paths he had chosen, he suddenly gained a great deal of new insights.

At this moment, when he comprehended the Unfinished Final Scene Sword Technique again, all the places where he had been stuck before suddenly became clear, and a feeling of natural success welled up in his heart. In an instant, a blue light flashed in Lin Hui's eyes, and silently, he completely broke through the sixth level, which was also the final level, of the sword technique.

His aura of power surged for a moment, but he quickly restrained it to avoid attracting any other unknown external entities.

Standing still, Lin Hui carefully tested his feelings after his intelligence had improved.

The first and most obvious change is the life line.

Essentially, the core of the Unfinished Final Scene Sword Technique is to gather all nine lifelines of the opponent to achieve a special offensive effect.

The speed at which one can gather lifelines depends on all the information gathered about the other party.

At this point, the increased intelligence obviously greatly optimizes the process of collecting, processing, understanding, and consolidating information into a lifeline.

"It shortened the time by more than half. Indeed... this choice of seal method was correct..." Just this one effect alone can indirectly improve his combat ability by a large margin.

"Next, we should go check on Xia Si and the others."

Composing himself, Lin Hui tore open a spatial rift and flew straight towards the location indicated by his senses of the disciples. He first entered the Black Domain.

But instead of seeing anyone, there was another letter mentioning a journey to the realm of the Endless Divine Clan.

Lin Hui didn't stop, and with another wave of his hand, he tore open another opening and entered.

When they reappeared, the outside world was the iconic, enormous grape realm of the Endless Divine Realm.

Outside the boundary, in the void of the Black Domain, float semi-transparent crystal pillars, each containing Xia Si, Su Yaping, and Yun Xiazi.

Besides that, there is no one else here.

"Where is she?" Lin Hui scanned his surroundings but couldn't find Ping Yun's location.

"Where are the warrants?" Ping Yun asked, her voice echoing through the surrounding void.

He learned his lesson and this time didn't even show his face, controlling the situation from a distance.

"Release them first, and I'll give them to you naturally," Lin Hui smiled.

"Alright, anyway, as long as you're here, my goal is achieved." Ping Yun smiled.

Luring the tiger away from the mountain?

Lin Hui immediately realized what was happening.

They hurriedly tried to leave again, but the crack they had come from suddenly became completely impenetrable.

at the same time.

In the surrounding air, layers of golden chains emerged, sealing off the area and forming a giant golden sphere that rapidly contracted and shrank towards him. At this moment, Lin Hui, enhanced by the Flash Extreme Seal, only needed a glance to instantly judge, distinguish, and analyze the operating principle of this formation. Combined with the Blood Seal identification, he found all the life lines in the blink of an eye.

He gently blew a breath forward.

A subtle airflow, carrying a trace of wind Wind Energy, precisely struck the weakest point of the formation before them.

With a bang, the massive golden array collapsed instantly, completely disintegrating and disappearing into the void in less than five seconds.

This special arrangement, originally intended to block Ping Yun Lin Hui, was one of the God Clan's trump cards against You Yan and Zulong. However, it couldn't even hold Lin Hui back for a minute.

He glanced at the three sealed crystal pillars, then raised his finger again and pointed at them from afar.

With a crash, the three crystal pillars shattered and vanished simultaneously.

The three of them fell out, each one with all their strength forcibly drained, clearly having suffered considerable torment.

After being rescued, the three men, looking ashamed, quickly composed themselves, remained silent, and respectfully bowed to Lin Hui.

"Teacher... it was our carelessness. We should have committed suicide decisively from the beginning," Su Yaping said in a low voice.

"Go back. Suicide is useless. For an opponent like him, the reason he sealed you off was just to show me," Lin Hui said. "Contamination, permanent sealing—these methods can keep you under control forever, even allowing for prolonged imprisonment and brainwashing. As ancient beings who have lived for over ten thousand years, their methods are far more numerous than you imagine."

The three men's expressions changed slightly. Indeed, they had dared to be so bold before because they relied on the immortality granted by their Illusion Destruction Eye, which made them so arrogant. But if they were to encounter the methods their teacher had described...

"Alright, you've done a great job collecting resources this time. As a reward, I'll teach you a new hand seal technique." Lin Hui was generous; he flashed forward and tapped each of them on the forehead.

The Flash Extreme Seal was transmitted directly.

These three can be considered his most loyal followers, and the faster his strength is increased, the better.

In addition, there's the matter with the teachers...

Lin Hui briefly transmitted a message from the Flash Extreme Seal, then instantly left his original location and headed to the Nine Heavens Gate.

Yes, the current embodiment of the God-King's Authority, Second Brother Ding Yiran, is located in the new, enclosed small world next to the Nine Heavens Gate. Lin Hui named this world Yiqing Jade Mountain.

boom!!

Inside Clear Jade Mountain.

The portal crack that had just closed was suddenly forced open by an immense Divine Power.

The many Red Pattern Star who had just moved here looked up at the sky in confusion.

They looked at the massive rift portal that had brought them there.

But the rift portal only expanded for two seconds before quickly returning to its original state, as if nothing had ever happened.

And at the other end of the crack

Looking at the traces of Wind Disaster and Disaster Energy on her hands, Ping Yun's face turned ashen.

This Disaster Energy didn't drift in from the other side of the crack.

Rather, it is.

He slowly turned around and looked at the figure behind him.

"Isn't it a bit too much for the older generation to bully the younger ones by taking direct action like this?"

Seven Extinctions blinked from behind.

"I didn't do anything; I was just here to watch the show. You can continue doing what you want."
