Liu Ling'er's baptism lasted for a full month before it ended!
This baptism greatly enhanced the quality of her Divine Power, and the same was true for her Divine Soul power!
The greatest benefit it brought her was that she completely mastered the Law of Space and merged the laws of Lunar Law and Law of Space together!
She had already mastered the Lunar Law, and her ability to fully control the Law of Space this time was thanks to her previous comprehension of the Heart of Space!
Logically, Liu Ling'er should have been able to advance to the Saint Realm by now, but she wasn't!
This point is also mentioned in those Heavenly Gate strategy guides!
No matter what opportunities they obtain in the Heavenly Gate World, cultivators from the God Realm cannot directly advance to the Saint Realm or the Great Saint Realm!
Because advancement to these two realms can only be completed in the God Realm!
Without the approval and Heavenly Dao Baptism of the Heavenly Dao in the God Realm, one cannot advance to the Saint Realm or the Great Saint Realm!
In other words, as long as Liu Ling'er returns to the God Realm, she can immediately advance to the Saint Realm!
Now that she is in the Heavenly Gate World, she can only get infinitely closer to the Saint Realm!
Hearing about the previous series of battles, Liu Ling'er sighed, "Luckily, I came in with you all, otherwise, this opportunity would have been really hard to come by! Even after dealing with the Great Yin Heavenly Magnetic Crystal at the bottom of the pool, we still couldn't have handled so many powerful local demonic beasts!"
Liu Ling'er is right!
Without Lin Heng and the Evil Emperor's protection, they would probably have died in front of this Illusory Law Waterfall!
If Lin Heng and the Evil Emperor are not strong enough, they will also be in great danger!
In fact, many opportunities in the Heavenly Gate World are quite obvious and not hidden, but they are not easily obtained by cultivators from the God Realm!
"Sister Evil Emperor, it's your turn!"
Duanmu Yunshang smiled and said, "This time, we'll protect you!"
"Okay! I'll give it a try!"
The Evil Emperor pierced through the waterfall's curtain of water and landed on that Illusory Law Wall!
She didn't need to worry about anything. If they encountered danger, Liu Ling'er and the others could hide in the Qiankun Ring. Lin Heng only needed to protect her, so there shouldn't be any major problems!
As expected, the Evil Emperor's self-awareness was quickly pulled into the illusion!
Liu Ling'er first sent Hong San and Dongfang Yan into the Qiankun Ring, and then began to digest and consolidate her previous cultivation improvement!
A few days later, at Lin Heng's prompting, Liu Ling'er took out the Great Yin Heavenly Magnetic Crystal that she had retrieved from the bottom of the pool!
After some adaptation and mastery, Liu Ling'er also began to absorb the Great Yin Magnetic Force!
Lin Heng, along with Yue Linglong and Duanmu Yunshang, continued to comprehend the Law of Space of Heart of Space!
Time passed day by day!
One month, two months, three months, six months...
To Lin Heng and the others' dismay, six months had passed, and the Evil Emperor's self-awareness still hadn't returned to her body!
"No need to rush, the higher your cultivation level, the longer you can stay in the illusion!"
Liu Ling'er said, "I spent more than two months in that illusion, so it's normal that the Evil Emperor's niece took several times longer than me!"
"That's true!"
Duanmu Yunshang nodded, "A hundred years is plenty of time, it won't delay us from seeking other opportunities!"
Yue Linglong frowned and said, "I think the Evil Emperor's Martial Aunt's expression is not right. She has obviously encountered a big problem in the illusion. What if she can't handle it..."
This is also what Lin Heng is worried about!
A little delay is fine, but if something happens to the Evil Emperor, that would be a huge problem!
The Evil Emperor's past and present lives have consumed too many negative emotions from other cultivators, things she may have to face in the illusion!
More importantly--
The consciousness of the Evil Emperor in his past life and this life has not yet been fully integrated. Miao Xiyin's consciousness, which is suppressed by her past life consciousness, will also cause great trouble in the illusion!
Lin Heng still had some concerns!
Those Saint Realm demonic beasts that escaped before might bring back native demonic beasts from the Great Saint Realm!
Regardless, everyone can only continue to wait!
Lin Heng and the others had been in the Heavenly Gate World for just one year when the Evil Emperor's self-awareness finally returned to his body!
Then, she also received the baptism from the Illusory Law Wall!
Lin Heng and the others were finally relieved!
The Evil Emperor's baptism lasted for two months!
After the baptism, she turned to Lin Heng and the others, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting! I encountered some trouble in the illusion and almost didn't make it!"
" Evil Emperor Aunt, what happened to you?"
Yue Linglong asked curiously.
"The cultivators I devoured in both past and present lives, their kind nature in life and cultivation was created by the illusion. My consciousness played various roles around them, and I witnessed them being devoured alive, feeling their despair, pain, resentment, and hatred..."
The Evil Emperor shook his head, a look of lingering fear on his face. "Just these things almost drove my consciousness to madness!"
"Fortunately, I'm broad-minded by nature and not a person who dwells on things too much, which is why I was able to break free from it!"
"Those things are in the past, but now Miao Xiyin's identity in this life is causing trouble again!"
"However, her interference was actually a good thing, as it allowed our consciousnesses to completely merge!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Linglong asked, " Evil Emperor, are you now considered Miao Xiyin as well?"
"Um!"
Looking at Yue Linglong, the Evil Emperor realized that he no longer felt the same desire to get closer to this girl as before!
I'd like to, but not really!
"Sister Evil Emperor, how much have you gained from this baptism?"
Duanmu Yunshang was also very curious!
"Not bad, I've learned a lot!"
The Evil Emperor replied casually, "Most of the evil energy on my body has been purified, and the Saint Body, Saint Power, and Saint Soul I previously devoured have been refined and purified, with a slight improvement in quality! Simply put, this baptism helped me resolve the various side effects of my excessively rapid cultivation, but it didn't significantly increase my cultivation level!"
"This is fine too!"
"Duanmu Yunshang said."
"Well, I have no complaints!"
The Evil Emperor then looked at Lin Heng with a smile, and said with a hint of smugness, "Big brother, what did I say before? The problem of cultivating the ' Heaven-Devouring Art ' can be solved, and hasn't this come true?"
"You're just lucky!"
Lin Heng replied, "You'll continue to devour more in the future, and you might not get such an opportunity to resolve your future worries again!"
"Haha... you're just jealous of me!"
The Evil Emperor laughed triumphantly!
"Let's go! We've stayed here long enough; it's time to look for other opportunities!"
Liu Ling'er urged.
The God Realm, the Chaotic Star Domain!
Saint Alliance Headquarters!
Ma Wu possessed the cultivation level of the Saint Realm cultivator, hurriedly went to see the Great Saint Tai Chen!
" Ma Wu, what have you found out this time?"
A look of anticipation appeared on Great Saint Tai Chen's rugged face!
Great Saint Wang Teng, said he would wait in the Chaotic Star Domain. Great Saint Tai Chen, thought that waiting was fine, but they couldn't give up the pursuit!
"Reporting to the Great Saint, I've discovered that Lin Heng visited Blue Radiance Star in the Mogu Star Domain a year ago!"
"Oh?"
Great Saint Tai Chen frowned. "There's also a Heavenly Gate Mountain on Blue Radiance Star, which is under the jurisdiction of the Ten Myriad Saints Palace. What is Lin Heng going there for? Could it be that he and the reborn Evil Emperor want to enter the Heavenly Gate World from there?"
