Devil Master Tuoba Kui was here!
Demon God Ao Qin was here too!
There were also ten other God Realm experts from the Demon and Devil Races, more than a hundred Quasi-Gods, and over three thousand Emperor Realm experts from the two races!
Countless experts below the Emperor Realm from both races stood guard throughout the Mist-Hidden Forest and around its outskirts!
The Demon and Devil Races intended to find and force open the passage for ascending to the God Realm!
Under the command of Tuoba Kui and Ao Qin, all the Emperor Realm, Quasi-God Realm, and God Realm experts joined forces to attack the sky above the Mist-Hidden Forest without pause.
There was nothing in the sky!
Yet their attacks generated immensely powerful spatial fluctuations!
Those fluctuations would cause the entrance to the spatial fissure to reveal itself.
Because it was a divine ability of an expert from the God Realm, only by gathering a large number of experts from the Divine Firmament Continent could they make the plan a reality.
Neither the Devil Race nor the Demon Race could do it alone!
An invincible expert like Liu Ling'er had appeared among the Human Race, forcing the Devil and Demon Races to join forces.
With the survival of their races at stake, the two races had to work together.
Continuously concentrating their full-power attacks on a single point and searching bit by bit for that spatial fissure would take a great deal of time and consume a great deal of the two races' experts' power.
In the past, even if a God Realm expert possessed enough strength to ascend to the God Realm, they could never have commanded so many experts from the various races to come and help.
After all, finding the hidden spatial fissure was only the beginning!
They would still have to break through the seal left by that expert from the God Realm. That would be just as difficult, take a long time, and might even cost lives!
After the celebration banquet ended, Dongfang Lin took Dongfang Yao back to the Great Xia Empire.
Duanmu Lan still hadn't left. He needed to help rebuild the hall over the Devil-Sealing Well and replenish the crystal stones in the Devil-Sealing Grand Formation protecting Chishui Royal City.
Liu Ling'er continued to live in the Heartwarming Pavilion, enjoying an exalted status and treatment.
She found it very strange-
Her son visited the Devil-Sealing Well and the Ancestral God Temple once every day. Besides that, he liked wandering around the royal palace and the royal city!
She couldn't make sense of it, so she simply assumed her son liked moving around rather than sitting still and thought no more of it!
Most of the time, she accompanied him, though she occasionally had Hong San take him around.
On his third check-in at the Devil-Sealing Well in Chishui Royal City, he obtained the divine artifact "Glazed Divine Armor."
It was a divine suit of armor of a very high grade, with a defense that could be called invincible. It was even more formidable than the Iridescent Battle Robe!
On his fourth check-in at the Ancestral God Temple in Chishui Royal Palace, he obtained the divine pill "Ninth-Grade Body-Reshaping Pill."
It was a divine pill that could reshape the physical body, quickly restoring it to its original state no matter how severe the injury.
Its greatest use was that it could regrow missing body parts, such as a severed arm!
On his first check-in at the Hall of Longevity in Chishui Royal Palace, he obtained the divine skill "Ninefold Rushing Thunder Palm."
It was a divine skill passed down through the Chishui Royal Clan, slightly less powerful than the Formless Heavenly Devil Kill in the Formless Heavenly Devil Art.
On his first check-in at the Drunken Cloudtop Restaurant in Chishui Royal City, he obtained a jar of "God-Intoxicating Brew."
It was a fine liquor that could intoxicate even a God Realm expert!
The days passed, one after another.
Lin Heng was not only the young prince of King Lin Changqing, but also the son of the invincible God Realm expert Liu Ling'er and the future son-in-law of the Great Xia Imperial Uncle. Everyone who saw him treated him with extraordinary respect, as though he were a little ancestor.
Shi Feifei and Su Ying kept strictly to their places and behaved themselves, never again daring to make the slightest move.
Lin Changqing often came to the Heartwarming Pavilion, but Liu Ling'er paid him little attention, and Lin Heng didn't care to see him either.
At two months old, Lin Heng began walking on his own.
He was busy every day!
He could check in once a day at each place, and he avoided wasting any check-in opportunities he could!
The system warehouse held more and more things, of every grade!
Not only could these things help him quickly reach the God Realm in the future, they could also help others reach the God Realm quickly!
It could be said that Lin Heng had already become the wealthiest person on the entire Divine Firmament Continent!
In the blink of an eye, three years passed.
During those three years, Lin Heng took one seed from the Seven-Colored Heavenly Heart Lotus each year!
Like Liu Ling'er, he successfully obtained a Divine Soul Pearl!
The divine attributes of his Supreme Divine Physique and Heavenly Devil Tyrant Body merged more and more perfectly!
Though only three years old, Lin Heng still had a tender, childish face, like a porcelain doll carved and polished with exquisite care. But he was considerably taller than ordinary young children, and his body's meridians had fully developed!
He could finally begin raising his power and cultivation step by step.
Unfortunately, he hadn't obtained a Nine-Pattern Sun Pill or a similar divine pill, so he couldn't acquire divine power in a short time.
But he had attained a Divine Body and a divine soul, making him a high-level Quasi-God, invincible below the God Realm. Even if he encountered a God Realm expert, he could rely on those divine artifacts and divine talismans to put up a fight!
Lin Heng had also studied Lu Feiqing's god-level alchemy art, the Divine Refinement Scripture, hoping that one day he could refine a Nine-Pattern Sun Pill himself.
Just a few days after Lin Heng's third birthday, the Demon and Devil Races, which had been quiet for three years, made another major move!
This time, the two races combined their forces, fought their way out of the Mist-Hidden Forest, and invaded the Nanhua Kingdom of the Human Race.
The Great Xia Imperial Clan once again coordinated the various forces of the Human Race to support the Nanhua Kingdom.
As an invincible God Realm expert, Liu Ling'er naturally received a request from the Great Xia Imperial Clan as well.
Dongfang Lin came to Chishui Royal Palace in person and said to Liu Ling'er, "The Demon and Devil Races have gone too far. We didn't retaliate against them, yet they've come to invade again. This time, we must teach them a harsh lesson, hit them where it hurts, and make sure they remember it!"
"All right!"
Liu Ling'er hesitated for only a moment before nodding and agreeing to go into battle.
She felt it was a duty she could not shirk!
Besides, if she didn't fight, the Human Race would most likely be defeated. Even if the Demon and Devil Races didn't dare invade the Chishui Kingdom, countless innocent people elsewhere would die miserable deaths!
Before leaving, Liu Ling'er smiled at Lin Heng and said, "Mother is going to kill the enemy. While I'm away, don't be naughty or cause trouble. It would be best if you stayed in the Heartwarming Pavilion and went out as little as possible!"
"Don't worry, Mother. Heng'er will behave and wait for you to come back!"
Lin Heng nodded.
After gently rubbing Lin Heng's head, Liu Ling'er rose into the air with Dongfang Lin, and they vanished into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
Over the past three years, Liu Ling'er's realm hadn't advanced much, but she had grown more familiar with her realm and the various divine abilities of a God Realm expert, making her considerably stronger than she had been three years ago!
Now, killing Quasi-Gods was as easy for her as chopping melons and slicing vegetables, and killing God Realm experts wouldn't take much effort either!
Lin Heng and Hong San entered a study in the Heartwarming Pavilion.
For some reason, Lin Heng had only just sat down when he suddenly felt a little uneasy.
"There's no need to worry, young prince. The goddess is unrivaled under heaven. She'll surely achieve another great victory on this trip and won't face the slightest danger!"
Seeing that something was off about Lin Heng's expression, Hong San smiled and offered a word of comfort.
"Everyone knows my mother is unrivaled under heaven, and the Demon and Devil Races know it too. But if they know that, why do they still dare invade Human Race territory?"
Lin Heng answered his own question. "Obviously, they've made preparations and have something planned!"
"Rest assured, young prince. 'Invincible' isn't just a word. Any plots and schemes are nothing but a joke before absolute strength!"
Hong San continued to comfort him.
Lin Heng curled his lip and stopped himself from thinking any further.
There was no use thinking too much. With his current strength, he couldn't help his mother.
Besides, his intuition told him something bad would happen, but it might not be aimed at his mother. It could be aimed at him instead!
"Those Demon and Devil Races are despicable. Can't they let this young master have a few more peaceful years? Once this young master grows strong, I'll wipe you all out sooner or later!"
