Seeing that everyone agreed, Liu Yi smiled slightly and said:

"Those Devil King and Devil Race must have amassed quite a few treasures. Fellow Daoists, why don't you go and collect the spoils of war?"

I will remain here to refine the Great Devil King.

He paused slightly, then continued, "I am quite interested in the Great Dao Principle Crystal and various Cultivation Method Secret Manual. I hope that fellow Daoists will help me collect them."

He didn't care about the other treasures; they were of little use to him.

Moreover, he possesses the World Origin, a supreme treasure of heaven and earth; ordinary rare and precious treasures are no longer of interest to him.

In the Land of Exile, the only things that could truly benefit him were the Great Dao Principle Crystal and the Cultivation Method Secret Manual.

Upon hearing this, the eyes of all the Immortal King present lit up.

It was thought that with Liu Yi here, the Devil King and the Devil Race's treasures would mostly be out of their reach.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yi was so generous, giving away most of the spoils to everyone and only asking for the Great Dao Principle Crystal and the Cultivation Method Secret Manual.

These two things were useless to them.

They couldn't guess what Liu Yi wanted the Great Dao Principle Crystal for, assuming he used it to comprehend the Dao.

After all, it was clear from the previous Immortal King Tribulation that Liu Yi had already comprehended the Three Thousand Great Daos, and he probably wanted to use the Great Dao Principle Crystal to comprehend the Great Daos.

As for Cultivation Method Secret Manual, the Land of Exile has no shortage of them; every village sells them, so they are not worth mentioning.

"Fellow Daoist Liu is kind and righteous, then we will not stand on ceremony!"

We also possess some Great Dao Principle Crystal and Cultivation Method Secret Manual. We'll have someone collect more from our territory later and deliver them to you, fellow Daoist."

Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Liu Yi's eyes, and his smile grew even more gentle. He hadn't expected such an unexpected surprise; it couldn't be better.

"Thank you, fellow Daoists. Please proceed with your mission, lest the remaining Devil Race abscond with the treasure."

The Immortal King said no more, and they all traversed the void, heading straight for the Devil Race territory to collect their spoils.

Liu Yi watched the departing figures of the Immortal King, a faint smile playing on his lips.

Although the Immortal King will not exterminate the Devil Race, the elite and powerful members of the Devil Race Clan will certainly be purged.

However, this is irrelevant to him. As long as he is not completely wiped out, leaving behind a group of Devil Race to hone the system's host is enough.

He casually stored the Chaos Azure Lotus, the Heaven-Opening Sword, and the Creation Battle Armor into his inner world, nurturing them with the World Origin, before his gaze fell upon the Cauldron of Creation.

Inside the cauldron, the mournful cries of the Great Devil King begging for mercy echoed endlessly.

"My lord, spare my life! I will submit and be loyal to you for eternity!"

"I'm willing to be your maid, sir, just please spare my life!"

"I am willing to become your mount, at your beck and call, please have mercy, my lord!"

Liu Yi ignored these pleas for mercy.

In his eyes, only dead enemies are the best enemies.

The fact that the Nether Devil Lord escaped this time has already sown the seeds of a huge hidden danger. He was already unhappy, and he was just taking advantage of these Great Devil King to vent his anger.

However, he was unwilling to refine it himself, as it would be time-consuming and laborious.

He planned to send the Cauldron of Creation into the Xuanyi World to refine it using the power of the Heavenly Dao, which would not only be more efficient but also save time.

Furthermore, it can extract the Great Dao Principle that these Devil King comprehended and use them to perfect the great laws of heaven and earth.

With a thought, he extracted the Cauldron of Creation into the Xuanyi World, placing it within the three thousand layers of the Great Dao Seal that had been used to refine the Demon King Luo Sha last time.

With a slight movement of his Divine Sense, he ignited the Origin Sacred Fire of the Heavenly Dao and began to refine the Great Devil King.

The Xuanyi World has now been upgraded to Middle Chiliocosm, and its refining power is far greater than before.

In a short while, the immortal demonic bodies of the Great Devil King began to melt, and shrill screams and venomous curses rang out.

Liu Yi remained silent, his mind calm, and began to ponder something.

Should I, in this Land of Exile, spread Fairness System on a large scale?

The Land of Exile was a melting pot of all sorts of beings, inhabited by countless races, including Devil Race and ferocious beasts, making the situation extremely chaotic.

Although he has now severely damaged the Devil Race, this place is home to various races, and there are still many alien Immortal King entrenched here. These people have different thoughts and ulterior motives.

If they are also bound to the Fairness System, the already chaotic social platform will inevitably become even more chaotic.

Not only will it exacerbate conflicts between different ethnic groups, but it may also be exploited by those with ulterior motives to deliberately sow discord among Human Race and undermine ethnic unity.

Those Non-Self kind will surely have different hearts.

This is not only the understanding of the Human Race, but also a common idea among all races in the heavens.

Removing the restrictions of the Fairness System and allowing inter-racial binding would be tantamount to doing the work for someone else's benefit.

This will inevitably lead to a rapid increase in the strength of alien races, and over time, it will inevitably threaten the Human Race.

While allowing the Fairness System to bind all races might bring more benefits, these benefits are insignificant compared to the trouble it would cause.

As Human Race, he should naturally prioritize the perspective of Human Race and would never be able to treat all races in the heavens equally and without discrimination.

Moreover, demanding equality for all races is inherently unfair to Human Race and a betrayal of one's own race.

Distinguishing between close and distant relationships is a matter of course.

He absolutely refused to become one of those foolish characters in the novels of his past life who betrayed their race and even suppressed their people.

If Human Race is destroyed, even if he possesses extraordinary strength, he will ultimately be alone, like a rootless duckweed or a lonely soul in the wilderness.

Even with the strongest cultivation, loneliness is inevitable over the long years, and one may gradually lose humanity as time goes by, becoming a cold machine that only knows how to cultivate.

This is also why he prefers to wander in the mortal world, visit brothels, look at beautiful women, and raise Little Yellow, a dog that resembles a Chinese rural dog from his previous life.

He wanted to use the warmth of everyday life and companionship to firmly hold onto his humanity, preventing the advancement of his cultivation from eroding his humanity and ultimately turning him into a cold and ruthless person who viewed all living beings as ants.

If one loses their humanity and becomes cold and indifferent, are they still themselves?

What he sought in his cultivation was never to be ruthless or devoid of humanity, but rather to be carefree and follow his heart, never to become a heartless, unyielding rock.

This is also why, despite his rapid advancement in cultivation, he was still able to maintain his original heart and humanity, and never became arrogant, indifferent, or viewed all living beings as ants.

He was never a noble, selfless person who could treat all beings equally.

I simply want to be a human being with flesh and blood.

Instead of being reduced to a god worshipped by the world, devoid of emotion and compassion.

This is also one of the reasons why he was unwilling to stay in the world he had created.

In the world he created, he was omniscient and omnipotent, in control of everything.

However, staying in this state for too long will inevitably lead to a gradual loss of interest in all things in the world, and humanity will be gradually eroded away.

Ultimately, he will truly become aloof and indifferent creator god who views all living beings as ants.

With him now in charge of the Land of Exile, even if the alien Immortal King were to discover the existence of the system host and the Fairness System, they would never dare to act rashly.

If anyone dares to overstep his bounds, he wouldn't hesitate to personally eliminate them.

Moreover, the system host is currently only active around the Heavenly Pillar Peak ruins, which is extremely small compared to the vast and boundless Land of Exile.

It will take a long time for the system host to encounter all the races of the heavens.

During this period, the system host is given enough time to undergo a complete transformation, experiencing a dramatic increase in strength.

When that time comes, perhaps he won't need to take action himself; the system host alone will be enough to suppress all the myriad races and alien immortal Immortal King in the Land of Exile.
