Su Xiuyi realized that she should never use the divine insect unless absolutely necessary.
Taking a deep breath, Su Xiuyi sat cross-legged and began to refine the portion of the power of rules and Dao Rhyme Crystal she had snatched from the divine insect.
While Su Xiuyi was cultivating, a figure descended from the sky onto an island suspended upside down in the void.
The Power of Heaven and Earth here is extremely concentrated.
The visitor was extremely respectful, daring not to make any move, and waited quietly.
Soon, a figure appeared.
A light veil covered her head, obscuring her face.
However, despite her slender figure and obscured face, one cannot help but imagine her stunning beauty.
What is it?
The woman's voice was very cold after she appeared.
Without a trace of emotion.
"Reporting to the Grand Elder, Zhou Yun has perished."
The man kept his head down, not daring to look up at the woman in front of him.
Beneath the veil, the woman's brow furrowed slightly upon hearing of Zhou Yun's demise, and her expression finally changed.
It was clear that Zhou Yun's demise had greatly shocked him.
"Are you sure?"
" Zhou Yun has truly fallen."
The woman took a deep breath, and her cold voice rang out again. She clearly found Zhou Yun's demise unbelievable and wanted to confirm it once more.
"Reporting to the Grand Elder, Zhou Yun has perished. We have confirmed it; the Soul Lamp shattered, and we have already deduced the cause."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't dare report it."
The newcomer lowered his body even further.
After a few breaths of silence, the woman finally spoke, "I understand."
"Your subordinate takes his leave."
The visitor bowed respectfully and quickly left the Inverted Divine Mountain.
The person who had come disappeared, and the woman beneath the veil spoke with a hint of disbelief.
" Zhou Yun actually perished in a mere lower plane. I'm really curious what exactly happened there."
As the woman finished speaking, she slowly opened the brocade box in her hand.
Inside the brocade box was a piece of paper.
The woman opened it, and there were four words on it: True Demon Heavenly Domain.
" The True Demon Heavenly Domain?"
After seeing it clearly, the woman looked even more puzzled.
He took a deep breath, picked up the brocade box, and turned to leave.
Inverted Divine Mountain, the Power of Heaven and Earth is incredibly dense. At the center of the God Mountain grows a Divine Tree, its entire body radiating golden light, with divine light shimmering on each of its leaves.
The Divine Tree was enormous, covering half of the Inverted Divine Mountain.
Beneath the Divine Tree stands a bronze Immortal Hall.
The woman arrived at this spot and stopped.
" Qingxuan requests an audience with the Goddess."
The woman from before was named Qingxuan, an elder of the Supreme Divine Palace.
Qingxuan's voice fell, he bowed and waited quietly, without the slightest impatience.
After a long while, a figure emerged from the Bronze Immortal Hall, dressed in a light veil.
Her beauty was unparalleled.
If Su Xiuyi were here, she would definitely mistake this for Hu Qingyun.
"Greetings, Goddess."
Qingxuan met the goddess and bowed in respect.
The goddess's expression remained unchanged, and her eyes held no emotion whatsoever.
The indifference is terrifying.
She was stunningly beautiful, but her eyes were terrifying.
What is it?
The voice also lacked any emotional fluctuation.
Upon hearing the goddess's question, Qingxuan immediately replied, "Goddess, a few days ago, you asked us to locate your two avatars. According to our calculations, your two identities reside in a lower realm. In order to retrieve your two avatars, Zhou Yun and the others descended to the lower realm."
"But we just received news that Zhou Yun has perished."
"It seems the lower realm is not as simple as we imagined."
"However, we have already pinpointed the approximate location of Zhou Yun's fall, which is in the True Demon Heavenly Domain. I wonder what orders the Goddess has?"
Qingxuan's voice fell, and he waited respectfully and quietly.
Has Zhou Yun perished?
"Then send other people, or order the guardians stationed in the lower realm to capture the clone."
"Having arrived at this God Mountain, I suddenly have some insights. I will cultivate here for a while."
"Even two clones can't cause any trouble."
"However, the majesty of the Supreme Divine Palace cannot be insulted."
" Zhou Yun's demise must have nothing to do with my clones. I can sense that although the two clones have merged, their strength is still weak and they pose no threat to Zhou Yun. Whoever caused Zhou Yun's demise should have their entire family executed."
The moment the voice faded, the goddess of the Supreme Divine Palace turned and left.
In a few steps, they vanished without a trace.
"Understood."
Qingxuan bowed in the direction the goddess had left, then turned and departed.
The lower realm.
Niyang Divine Dynasty.
At that moment, a divine light descended from the sky.
Within the Niyang Divine Dynasty, figures couldn't help but raise their heads to look at the void, their eyes filled with excitement.
"An envoy from the upper realm has appeared."
"I actually met an envoy from the upper realm!"
The moment the divine light appeared, countless people were filled with excitement.
At this moment, a decaying aura soared into the sky from the forbidden area of the Niyang Imperial Dynasty.
The aura emanating from it was extremely terrifying.
He was clearly a being at the pinnacle of Peak Carefree Stage.
" Niyang pays his respects to the envoy."
Niyang was the founder of the Niyang Imperial Dynasty, and no one knows how long he has lived.
The moment Niyang knelt down, Dao Void appeared in the divine light in the void.
" Niyang, the Divine Palace has ordered you to immediately dispatch men to the True Demon Heavenly Domain to kill one person and exterminate their entire clan."
There must be no errors.
"At the same time, search for the avatars of the goddesses of the Divine Palace; their auras are all within the divine disc."
The moment the voice faded, the figure within the divine light slowly disappeared.
Amidst the attention, a compass-like object appeared several times and was caught in Niyang's hand.
" Niyang the order, we respectfully escort the envoy from the upper realm."
Niyang bowed deeply.
His expression was extremely respectful.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
Within the imperial court, figures surged forth.
We pay our respects to His Majesty the First Emperor.
There were three people who arrived, and they were all incredibly powerful.
Both Carefree Realm.
Niyang's gaze fell on the group, and he said coldly, "The three of you, immediately go to the True Demon Heavenly Domain to kill this person. Do not fail. If you fail to complete the mission, do not return."
"This man's entire family should be executed."
Niyang's voice rang out, and Niyang waved his hand.
A nine-colored butterfly flew out from the compass in his hand.
Despite not being able to sense any aura of cultivation, the nine-colored butterfly flapped its wings at an incredible speed, heading towards the True Demon Heavenly Domain.
Seeing the three leave, Niyang once again ordered people to search for Hu Qingyun's whereabouts, and a nine-colored butterfly flew out again.
"Extermination of the entire race?"
"It seems that Zhou Yun, the powerful figure from the Divine Palace who descended earlier, has perished."
Niyang looked in the direction of the True Demon Heavenly Domain and frowned.
His expression showed some confusion.
"Strange, after that great battle, the Power of Heaven and Earth in the True Demon Heavenly Domain dissipated by more than half. Although Zhou Yun was at the Freedom Realm, I still sensed a threat from Zhou Yun, yet he actually perished. What exactly happened there? Could it be that the seal on the Demon Cave has been broken?"
"But if the seal on the Demon Cave were broken, the Divine Dynasty should have received the news."
"Furthermore, the analysis revealed that the seal has not encountered any unexpected issues and seems to be even more secure."
"Strange, strange, but three Carefree should be enough."
Niyang muttered to himself, and his figure vanished into the void in an instant.
The True Demon Heavenly Domain, the Demon-Sealing Land.
Su Xiuyi slowly opened her eyes.
A terrifying glint appeared in Su Xiuyi's eyes.
Su Xiuyi's aura was incredibly powerful.
Compared to before, it has undergone a tremendous transformation.
The divine light in Su Xiuyi's eyes quickly vanished, returning to normal, and a smile appeared on her lips. "As expected of the rules of the Upper Realm, so powerful."
"If it weren't for the divine insects stealing and devouring most of my cultivation, I would definitely have reached the Carefree by now. It's a pity, I was just one step away."
It will take some time.
"However, although I haven't reached the Carefree Realm, ordinary Carefree Realm cultivators pose no threat to me."
"Having devoured the rules of the upper realm, our Great Dao of Rules has undergone a qualitative transformation."
"This is beyond the reach of ordinary rules."
"Moreover, we have obtained Zhou Yun's supernatural powers, the Heavenly Net and Earthly Web."
"With such supernatural power, even those at the Carefree Realm cannot escape my grasp."
A powerful confidence shone on Su Xiuyi's face.
Su Xiuyi's fingers danced, and at that moment, an enormous net appeared around Su Xiuyi, enveloping the heavens and the earth.
It was formed from an incomparably powerful force of rules.
Now, it's not just Su Xiuyi who benefits; after obtaining the rules of the upper realm, Su Xiuyi's Inner World has also undergone a transformation, becoming even more powerful.
Soon, the smile on Su Xiuyi's face disappeared, replaced by solemnity.
"If Zhou Yun alone possesses such strength, it seems the goddess behind him is even more powerful, at least at the Realm of Carefree, no weaker than him. I am still somewhat lacking in my ability to protect Qingyun."
"Moreover, Zhou Yun perished here, and they will likely find him soon. Before that, I must reach the Realm of Carefree, or even become stronger."
"Now, it all depends on the demon's lair."
I hope you won't let me down.
Su Xiuyi looked down at the demon cave beneath her, her eyes gleaming with a sharp light.
Originally, Su Xiuyi was somewhat wary of the Demon Cave.
After all, although the Power of Heaven and Earth in the Demon Cave had long been exhausted, the true demons in the Demon Cave devoured each other, so their strength was not very strong, but their realm was still there.
However, after absorbing Zhou Yun's rules this time, Su Xiuyi underwent a qualitative change.
Wuji about the den of demons.
Inside the Immortal Hall, Su Xiuyi's figure slowly disappeared.
Su Xiuyi entered the Demon Cave and began slaying true demons. While absorbing the power of the Chaos True Devil, Su Xiuyi continuously checked in.
Time flies by.
Half a month passed quickly.
True Demon Heavenly Domain.
The void suddenly cracked open.
A nine-colored butterfly flew out from the crack.
Then, three terrifying auras descended.
The moment the three appeared, they threw out array flags.
The array flags flew out and landed in the four directions of the True Demon Heavenly Domain, transforming into an incomparably terrifying array that directly imprisoned the entire True Demon Heavenly Domain.
It's clear they're not giving their opponent any chance to escape.
Where is Long Haotian?
At the same time, an extremely cold voice rang out from the void, resounding throughout the entire True Demon Heavenly Domain.
In each of the celestial cities, the city's ruler immediately awoke.
A look of doubt appeared in his eyes.
They initially thought it was a powerful figure sent by Long Haotian, but upon asking where Long Haotian was, they realized something was amiss.
but.
Sensing the aura of the other party's Carefree Realm, they dared not be negligent in the slightest and immediately soared into the Space Breaking.
They headed towards the four terrifying projections in the void.
We pay our respects to our senior.
"I was unaware of your arrival, senior; I have failed to greet you properly."
"It's been almost a month since the Alliance Leader left. May I ask what instructions you may have for me, Senior?"
One of them, the Lord of the Immortal City, spoke with utmost respect.
"Have you left?"
"Who will temporarily assume the role of alliance leader?"
His icy gaze swept over the ten city lords.
"Reporting to Senior, the one currently acting as the Alliance Leader is a powerful expert at the Freedom Realm who has been guarding the Demon Cave. A few days ago, some unforeseen events occurred at the Demon Cave, so he is likely unable to come and pay his respects. We will go and deliver the message immediately. Please forgive us, Senior."
The Lord of Geng Metal Immortal City immediately spoke.
As soon as the Lord of Geng Metal Immortal City finished speaking, the three exchanged glances. The one who had spoken earlier said calmly.
"No need, we will go ourselves."
Without explanation, the three voices vanished instantly.
In the void, the three people looked somewhat solemn.
Has something unexpected happened at the Demon's Den?
"Could it be that the Chaos True Devil has been born?"
"Otherwise, it would be impossible for anyone to slay the Heavenly Tribulation of the Upper Realm."
One of them said with a solemn expression.
"Not necessarily."
However, the other person shook his head immediately upon hearing this.
"Don't you think so, fellow Daoist?"
The two people beside him couldn't help but look at their companion.
Upon hearing about the recent changes in the Demon Cave, their first thought was of the Chaos True Devil within it.
Seeing the two looking at him, the man said calmly, "Watch the butterfly tracking."
"The place the colorful butterfly went was the location of the demon's lair."
"However, if it were Chaos True Devil, the colors of the butterflies in the Divine Palace would change. But now, have you noticed any changes in the butterflies?"
Upon hearing this, the two of them trembled.
Previously, my first thought was of the Chaos True Devil in the Demon Cave, and I forgot about this point.
"Could it be that you believe the accident at the Demon Cave is related to this person, who is cultivating by absorbing the power of the Chaos True Devil within the Demon Cave?"
The two weren't stupid; they quickly realized this.
The True Demon Heavenly Domain is barren of Power of Heaven and Earth, making it impossible for the Carefree Realm to emerge. However, if one were to absorb the power of the Chaos True Devil, such an opportunity might arise.
In their view, killing Zhou Yun would surely grant them access to the Carefree.
The first thing that came to mind was someone cultivating by absorbing the power of the Chaos True Devil.
"That's right, that's the only possibility. Otherwise, how could someone possess the power to kill a prodigy from the Upper Realm?"
"We need to be more careful this time too."
"That's why I set up the Heaven-Locking Grand Array immediately."
"Although the three of us possess the Realm of Carefree, if the opponent truly absorbs the power of the Chaos True Devil, the outcome is truly uncertain."
"One moment of carelessness, and you could easily capsize in a ditch."
"Now it all depends on how much Chaos True Devil power the opponent has absorbed. If they reach an agreement with the True Demons in the Demon Cave, it will be even more dangerous."
"The true catastrophe will only come when the seal on the Demon Cave is broken."
As soon as the words fell, the three of them rushed towards the demon's lair.
In the void, the lords of the ten immortal cities couldn't help but narrow their eyes.
Everyone looked at the Lord of Geng Metal Immortal City. " Dark Gold Supreme, I feel this matter is not so simple. If it were a trivial matter, the Divine Dynasty would not have sent three powerful beings from the realm of Carefree."
Is Su Xiuyi reliable?
"Could it be that the seal has been broken in secret?"
One of the celestial city lords asked in a low voice.
