Chapter 178
These clones are connection points for the Flower of Evil, allowing his spirit to freely travel to various parts of the Astral Realm.
Of course, these spores are also easy to remove, so the Flower of Evil loses these connection points.
However, for this Mystifying Space Gathering, Li Yang had suggested to the Flower of Evil that he go in his true form.
The Flower of Evil did indeed extend an olive branch to the Lost Space Society.
The reason he used was readily available.
His follower, Jiang Nianchu, was killed by Huoji, and he wants to seek justice from the Lost Space Society.
Huoji was already furious with the Thousand Flowers Realm Domain, and when it heard that the Flower of Evil had come to demand an explanation, it immediately wanted to lash out.
However, one of the Seven Sages of the Lost Space Society, the Sage Xuanyuan, stopped the Huoji and took the initiative to receive the clone of the Flower of Flower of Evil.
The Flower of Evil originally had little acting ability, and he was too lazy to act.
With his status and realm, he has always been able to walk sideways in the Astral Realm, without needing to use his brain or act.
But now, watching Li Yang act out the scenes, he finds it very interesting and has started to imitate her.
Sage Xuanyuan is a Divine Venerable Realm.
The Flower of Evil was only an avatar, but he was not intimidated at all. He immediately said, "The Lost Space Society gone too far! My followers came to your banquet with sincerity, and you have treated them as food!"
Xuanyuan said calmly, "Please calm down. There's been some misunderstanding. Huoji was also instigated."
Flower of Evil: "Aren't you supposed to be most sensitive to the scent of the Huaxia? To actually let them infiltrate Thousand-Person Feast —it's utterly absurd!"
"We are still investigating this matter, and we will inform the Holy Lord once we have the results."
Upon hearing the words "Holy Lord," the Flower of Flower of Evil's expression softened slightly.
Xuanyuan was very accommodating to him.
The Flower of Evil is known in the Astral Realm as the Evil Domain Holy Lord.
It was Jiang Nianchu who bestowed this honorary title upon him.
The Flower of Evil doesn't need reputation to cultivate; all it needs is malice.
But since Jiang Nianchu wanted to use the banner of the Flower of Evil, she naturally had to Risking Life she could to raise its status, which is why it came to have the title of Evil Domain Holy Lord.
The Flower of Evil pondered Li Yang's acting skills and deliberately made herself appear quite pleased, saying, "Sage Xuanyuan, does the Wise One Fire Sacrifice intend to devour the Single-Horn Domain?"
"Your Majesty has misunderstood. Huoji was instigated and mistakenly killed Jiang Nianchu. He has already made a mistake, so how could he make another one?"
The Flower of Evil frowned and said, "But now that Jiang Nianchu is gone from this Single-Horn Domain, it's really..."
Xuanyuan offered him a solution, saying, "If the Holy Lord is too busy to attend to it, why not temporarily entrust its management to the Lost Space Society?"
The Flower of Evil immediately retorted, "Manage on my behalf? Then does this Single-Horn Domain still belong to me?!"
Xuanyuan looked at the Flower of Evil and coaxed, "Why doesn't the Holy Lord join the Lost Space Society? Then you only need to appoint a Wise One to manage the Single-Horn Domain."
The Flower of Evil was clearly tempted. He sneered, "Your Seven Sages are all full. Do you expect me to become your subordinate?"
Xuanyuan had long realized that the Flower of Evil was a gesture of goodwill towards the Upper Three Realms.
That's why the Flower of Evil sent Jiang Nianchu to the Thousand-Person Feast.
I thought that after Jiang Nianchu was mistakenly killed by Huoji, the Flower of Evil would turn against me again, but I didn't expect him to take the initiative to extend an olive branch.
It seems that the suppression of the Flower of Evil by the Upper Three Realms over the years has been effective, finally causing him to compromise. However, he still needs someone to give him a way out.
Xuanyuan smiled and said, "Holy Lord, if you join the Lost Space Society, you will become its eighth Sage."
The Flower of Evil continued to ponder her observations of Li Yang, feigning a hesitant yet intrigued expression.
Xuanyuan wasn't in a hurry, saying, "We're about to hold the next Mystifying Space Gathering. You can come and visit the Deep Space Realm Domain then, and you can even recruit some Disciple you like in advance."
Chapter 178
The Flower of Evil paused for a moment.
He hadn't expected to get his ticket to the Mystifying Space Gathering so easily.
Is it because of his good acting skills, or because Li Yang's prediction was accurate?
Before this, the Flower of Evil was very resistant to the Upper Three Realms, and he also disliked the Lost Space Society, which was attached to the Upper Three Realms.
When Li Yang told him that the Lost Space Society trying to win him over, he was still skeptical.
But unexpectedly...
The other party was so sincere that they directly offered him a position Sage.
However, the Flower of Evil Lost Space Society.
He wanted chaos, not order.
Don't be fooled by the Lost Space Society's seemingly inhumane actions in the Astral Realm; they are an extremely orderly organization, otherwise they wouldn't be able to control thousands or even tens of thousands of smaller Realm Domain.
Moreover, the Flower of Evil vaguely sensed that there were probably people in the Upper Three Realms who also fed on malice.
The Flower of Evil once descended by chance upon a small Realm Domain under the jurisdiction of the Lost Space Society.
There had just been a riot there, a place that should have been a breeding ground for malice, but the Flower of Evil left hungry.
There's only one possibility: someone has already gathered the malicious intent.
It is precisely for this reason that the Flower of Evil firmly believes that the Upper Three Realms want to eliminate him.
After all, they are "fellows".
The position of Divine Venerable is unique. That Ninth-Grade Supreme who absorbs malice must kill him if he wants to advance to the Divine Venerable Realm!
However, the fact that they wanted to win him over suggests that the Ninth-Grade Supreme's status in the Upper Three Realms is rather ordinary.
The Flower of Evil also wanted to see what they were up to.
Faced with Xuanyuan's invitation, the Flower of Evil hesitated for a moment before finally agreeing reluctantly, "I'll think about it."
Xuanyuan gave the Flower of Evil a Teleportation Anchor, saying, "I look forward to your arrival."
The Flower of Evil accepted the Teleportation Anchor, but he never explicitly stated whether he would attend the Mystifying Space Gathering.
The Flower of Evil used Time Rewind to bring Li Yang to the scene in person, allowing him to witness Xuanyuan's interaction with him.
Li Yang observed very carefully.
Xuanyuan, one of the Seven Sages of the Lost Space Society, looks very young.
He looked to be only in his twenties or thirties, with a cold face, fair skin, and very handsome.
He wore a crisp, deep blue robe, his long, silver-gray hair loosely tied behind his ears, revealing a long, slender neck. He possessed an elegant demeanor, and his voice was as refreshing and pleasant as a clear spring.
"Xuanyuan..." Li Yang murmured the name, then asked, "He cultivates... the Power of Water?"
The Flower of Flower of Evil nodded. "That's right, he is the current Water God."
Li Yang caught the key words in his words and asked, "Now? What about the water god of the past?"
"Of course he perished, otherwise how could he have attained the rank of water god?"
Li Yang: "!"
She felt a wave of chaos wash over her. Then, her once calm Spirit Sea was thrown into turmoil.
Excruciating pain coursed through her entire body, making it difficult for Li Yang to hear anything around her. She felt only a cacophony of noise, and her mind was unable to think clearly. It was as if a massive amount of chaotic and disordered information was being crammed into her, threatening to overwhelm her Spirit Sea.
"Fellow Daoist! Stop thinking!" Lianxin's voice rang out urgently. He hovered above Li Yang's Spirit Sea, which was shimmering with crimson blood waves, like a bright lotus lamp.
The soft, tranquil lighting brought a sliver of clarity to the chaotic Li Yang.
[Lifespan increased by 1000 years.]
[Lifespan increased by 1000 years.]
"Fellow Daoist, Fellow Daoist..." Lianxin's repeated calls seized Li Yang's attention, preventing her from thinking about the high-level information belonging to the "gods".
Li Yang let out a long breath and said, "Thank you, Lianlian."
Fortunately, Lianxin was there; otherwise, her spirit would have been severely damaged, and she might even have fallen from her cultivation level.
The Flower of Evil also noticed Li Yang's unusual behavior. He paused for a moment, then said arrogantly, "I forgot you're only at the Sixth Grade Realm Peak. This information about the Divine Venerable is too much for you."
Li Yang: "..."
She wouldn't blame Flower of Evil, after all, the two were merely partners with temporarily aligned interests.
Moreover, Li Yang felt this news was extremely important.
Divine Venerable Authority...
She dared not think any deeper, but she vaguely grasped a clue to advancing to the Divine Venerable Realm.
If advancing to the Divine Venerable Realm requires sacrificing a resource-rich Realm Domain with hundreds of billions of living beings...
Given that there are so many Divine Venerable Realm in the Upper Three Realms, why hasn't the realm been destroyed yet?
Therefore, there must be more legitimate ways to advance, but they are completely monopolized by the Upper Three Realms!
Li Yang looked at the Flower of Evil and pondered, "Contact Xuanyuan and ask him for the schedule of the Mystifying Space Gathering."
Flower of Evil: "..."
How could he not have thought of that!
However, it's normal that he didn't expect it, since he was treated as an honored guest at the Mystifying Space Gathering and didn't need to inquire about the procedures beforehand!
The Flower of Evil has found peace.
He reluctantly asked Li Yang for the procedures, since he was still counting on her to cause trouble.
Li Yang added, "If he asks you why he needs the procedures, just say you want to see them up close so you can choose your favorite Disciple."
The Flower of Evil immediately replied, "I don't need you to teach me, I know what to say!"
But in fact, he had already carefully memorized Li Yang's words, just waiting to use them to deal with Xuanyuan.
Upon hearing the details of the Mystifying Space Gathering that the Flower of Evil wanted to discuss, Xuanyuan readily sent it to him, saying, "This Wise One Promotion Ceremony will be quite spectacular; you'll have priority in choosing your Disciple then."
The Flower of Evil simply replied with a single word, "Hmm."
He glanced at the process briefly, found it uninteresting, and sent it directly to Li Yang.
Li Yang, however, read it carefully again and again, memorizing it thoroughly.
The ascension ceremony for the Wise One was indeed bloody and cruel.
This process is crucial for Li Yang.
The so-called Wise One Promotion Ceremony is nothing more than a public free-for-all.
Moreover, due to the unique nature of the Deep Space Realm Domain, its scenes are even more intense and brutal than those in the Life-and-Death Battle Secret Realm.
This is also a regular feature of the Mystifying Space Gathering, which has always begun with Wise One Promotion Ceremony.
For Li Yang, this was the first hurdle.
