The vast world of living beings, where a hidden space is located.
"Captain Shi, that Blood Fiend Saint King has been killed..." Upon receiving the news from the outside world, Gray Leaf immediately found Shi Zhong and said excitedly.
Several months have passed, and his strength is recovering very slowly. At this rate, he estimates that it will take him tens of thousands of years to recover his original cultivation level. Therefore, he is also very angry with the Blood Fiend Saint King who hurt him so badly.
Therefore, when he heard the news of the Blood Fiend Saint King's demise, he felt a surge of excitement, but also a sense of regret, as the magical treasures on the other party's body were taken away by the acquired god who killed the Blood Fiend Saint King.
Back then, he had heard the hint in the stone and planned to make a move on the other party after recovering his cultivation. He never expected that the other party would perish at the hands of another god-level being after only a few months. How could he not be annoyed?
"What? Where did you get this news from? Who exactly killed that Blood Fiend Saint King?" Shi Zhong, who was receiving Hui Ye, was shocked to hear Hui Ye's excited words.
He knew Lin Yun's strength, and he also knew that Lin Yun's condensation of nine golden divine cores was of great significance. If Lin Yun were to perish, it would be an earth-shattering event.
Moreover, he had already been made to acknowledge Lin Yun as his master by Lin Yun's magic weapon, so he was subconsciously very concerned about Lin Yun's safety. Naturally, he was very surprised when he heard what Huiye said.
"I obtained the information from my original connections and confirmed it elsewhere. This matter has spread throughout the entire Great World of Living Beings, so it should be true. According to the information, the Blood Fiend Saint King was killed by Zhen Luo Dao Ren, a mid-level God Realm expert from the Acquired God Clan..." Gray Leaf said quickly, and at the end, his words contained a hint of resentment.
It seems rather strange that a middle-aged man like Gray Leaf would speak to a man like Ishino in such a tone, but that is indeed the case.
Back then, Shi Zhong was also at the intermediate level of the Divine Realm, and he was not a weak one at that level. If he had attacked that Blood Fiend Saint King, he could have definitely taken him down. In that case, the magic treasures on the other party would have been theirs.
Now, all of the opponent's magical treasures have fallen into the hands of that acquired god who is at the intermediate level of the Divine Realm.
"Middle Divine Realm, True Luo Daoist?" However, Huiye was unaware of this, and upon hearing his words, Shi Zhong breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he didn't know the specific details yet, he knew that a mid-level Divine Realm cultivator was definitely no match for that Blood Fiend Saint King. Let alone killing him, it would be good enough if he didn't retaliate.
There's a high chance there's something wrong here.
For no apparent reason, this thought arose in his mind.
Actually, it wasn't inexplicable. Just now, he was shocked by Gray Leaf's words and it was just a subconscious reaction. But then, he realized that he had been enslaved by that Blood Fiend Saint King using a magic weapon. If the Blood Fiend Saint King were to perish, or if the Blood Fiend Saint King's enslavement magic weapon were to change hands, he couldn't possibly be completely unaware.
Therefore, there is a high probability that there is a problem in this.
"Tell me the details of what happened," Shi Zhonglian said, thinking to himself.
"Speaking of which, this matter is also due to that Blood Fiend Saint King being too arrogant..." Gray Leaf nodded, and then began to tell Stone about the information he had obtained.
"Did he really think every cultivator in the Divine Realm was as good-tempered as Captain Shi? In the end, that True Luo Daoist didn't give him any face at all and directly killed him! It's a pity that you didn't intervene, Captain Shi..." Soon, Gray Leaf finished telling the whole story. Towards the end, he sneered and said with some regret, because he had high hopes for the magic weapon in the hands of that Blood Fiend Saint King.
"Was it just that True Luo Daoist who made the move?" Shi Zhong asked, his brows furrowing slightly.
"Although that Blood Fiend Saint King is not weak, he is only at the peak Saint King level. Isn't it enough for True Luo Daoist to take action?" Gray Leaf asked, stunned. He knew that the Blood Fiend Saint King was not weak, and subconsciously understood the meaning of Shi Zhong's words.
"So, Captain Shi, you were too principled back then. I told you, if you hadn't dealt with that Blood Fiend Saint King, his magical treasures would have ended up in the hands of other acquired gods sooner or later, which would have increased the strength of those acquired gods..." After a pause, Gray Leaf couldn't help but complain again.
"Alright, I admit I didn't think this through at the time. Now that I know, you can go back!" Shi Zhong smiled wryly and nodded slightly.
Seeing what Shi Zhong said, Huiye had no choice but to retreat.
After Gray Leaf left, a strange expression appeared on Stone's face.
Back then, when he was still at the peak of the Saint King realm, the Blood Fiend Saint King could fight against cultivators at the intermediate God Realm realm. After breaking through to the lower God Realm realm, ordinary cultivators at the intermediate God Realm realm would have absolutely no chance against him.
Even if both sides are outside the Blood Fiend Universe and the other side has no help from the power of the Blood Fiend Universe.
It should be noted that the opponent has already condensed a supreme divine spark with nine golden runes. Even a divine realm cultivator with five or six golden runes has the ability to fight against an ordinary divine realm cultivator one level higher, let alone someone with a divine spark with nine golden runes.
It would be good enough if the Blood Fiend Saint King didn't turn around and kill that True Luo Daoist. That True Luo Daoist killed the Blood Fiend Saint King? Absolutely impossible!
"It seems this senior used another method to divert attention..." Shi Zhong murmured thoughtfully.
From his last conversation with Lin Yun, he knew that Lin Yun didn't want to attract too much attention from powerful figures outside. At that time, he helped Lin Yun divert some attention. Now, it seems that Lin Yun used another method to divert attention.
He recalled the two bodies Lin Yun had seen back then. At that time, he was at the intermediate level of the Divine Realm, while Lin Yun was only at the peak of the Saint King Realm. He couldn't tell which body was Lin Yun's true form.
Perhaps this is the method they used to deceive many powerful beings in the Great World of Living Beings.
Shi Zhong thought to himself.
...
Three months have passed in the blink of an eye.
In the first two months, two more cultivators at the lower-level Divine Realm came to the Blood Fiend Universe with various motivations. However, just as they entered the Blood Fiend Universe, before they could even be surprised by its high level, they were entangled by Lin Yun's clone.
In just a dozen breaths, it was killed by Lin Yun's clone. Although Lin Yun's clone was only at the peak of the Saint King realm, with Lin Yun's main body reaching the peak of the lower-level God Realm and condensing nine golden divine sparks, the strength of Lin Yun's clone was no longer comparable to before. Within the Blood Fiend Universe, it was still possible to kill ordinary lower-level God Realm cultivators.
During this time, Lin Yun's main body continued to destroy the desolate universe in the world of living beings without being affected in the slightest.
And so, another three months passed.
Including the previous month, it has been four months since any Divine Realm experts came to the Blood Fiend Universe. It seems that with the Blood Fiend Saint King being killed by a powerful Divine Realm expert, the Blood Fiend Universe has gradually faded from the sight of those Divine Realm experts.
There were indeed some cultivators at the Saint Realm level who kept coming to the Blood Fiend Universe, but they were either blocked outside the Blood Fiend Universe or killed inside by some powerful Saint Kings secretly enslaved by Lin Yun. In addition, Lin Yun restricted the strong people of the Blood Fiend Universe from leaving the Blood Fiend Universe. Therefore, the true level of the Blood Fiend Universe has never been known to the outside world.
At this point, about nine months had passed since Lin Yun's main body re-entered the Great World of Living Beings.
During this period, Lin Yun's main body continuously destroyed one dead universe after another, and the Blood Fiend Universe was finally on the verge of upgrading.
"At most, if I destroy a few more desolate universes at the 54th level, I can upgrade the Blood Fiend Universe to a 63rd level universe..." Lin Yun stopped destroying the desolate universes and looked at the endless space in front of him, thinking to himself.
He had already located ten desolate universes at the fifty-fourth level nearby. If he used all his strength, he could destroy all those fifty-fourth-level universes in just a few breaths, allowing the Blood Fiend Universe to upgrade to a sixty-third-level universe.
"During this period, the Blood Prison Sword was upgraded to a mid-grade divine artifact, and the Heavenly Dao Tower reached the peak of a low-grade divine artifact. My strength has reached the limit of the lower-level divine realm, and I am almost ready to break through the new heaven of the Netherworld!" Lin Yun said in a low voice, his eyes flashing with a few sharp glints.
call!
The next moment, Lin Yun's body disappeared.
A few breaths later, Lin Yun's main body entered the Blood Fiend Universe.
Within the Blood Fiend Universe, Lin Yun's clone also went to meet him. Soon, Lin Yun's clone merged with his main body and flew together towards the Netherworld passage.
This time, Lin Yun planned to bring his clone to the Netherworld as well. He had kept the clone from breaking through to mislead the powerful beings in the outer realms. Now that he had achieved that goal, there was no need to keep the clone from breaking through any further.
He also planned that if his main body were to break through the new heaven of the Netherworld and an imbalance of the two primordial forces occurred, he would have his clone try to destroy those desolate universes in the Great World of Living Beings. Those were desolate universes of the fifty-fourth heaven, with strong defensive capabilities. Destroying such universes would be no less difficult than killing a lower-level god.
If his clone is only at the peak Saint King level outside the Blood Fiend Universe, it wouldn't be too easy for him to quickly destroy that kind of universe.
When he broke through the new heaven of the Netherworld, it was a race against time. Every minute, every second, even every millisecond was extremely important. Naturally, the stronger his clone was, the better. Ideally, he should also break through to the lower-level divine realm.
If you want to break through, it's best to go to the Netherworld.
On one hand, it's not difficult for the clone to break through to the God Realm, but it's not easy either. His main body has already broken through to the Lower God Realm. The two are of the same mind, and all that's needed is an opportunity for the clone to break through to the God Realm.
Time flows faster in the Netherworld. Even if his clone stays in the Netherworld for thousands or tens of thousands of years, only a day or two, or at most two or three days, will have passed in the Great World of Living Beings.
If the clone only cultivates in the Netherworld for a hundred or two hundred years, there is no need to worry about any major changes in the Blood Fiend Universe. Even if there are any changes, both the main body and the clone can return in time.
On the other hand, after he broke through the Netherworld to the fifty-fourth level, the Yin-attribute power of heaven and earth was very strong. Lin Yun's clone mainly cultivated in the realm of living beings, mainly absorbing Yang-attribute energy. The core of breaking through to the Divine Realm is the mutual generation of Yin and Yang. He believed that breaking through to the Divine Realm in the Netherworld would be beneficial and harmless.
...
Nine months have passed in the Great World of Living Beings, and hundreds of thousands of years have passed between the forty-sixth and fifty-fourth heavens of the Netherworld. The people around Lin Yun, as well as the ghost cultivators he has gathered, have been cultivating in the fifty-third heaven of the Netherworld for hundreds of thousands of years.
Fortunately, when practitioners are in seclusion, they don't really feel the passage of time; otherwise, it would truly feel like the world has changed beyond recognition.
Even so, Lin Yun was still startled when he entered the fifty-third level of the Netherworld.
The fifty-third heaven of the Netherworld was now quite different from when he left.
Back then, he placed many of his subordinates in the 53rd Heaven. Many of them were his subordinates when he left Earth. When he returned to Earth, some left and some joined, totaling about 100,000 people.
However, there were now as many as 500,000 to 600,000 people here, many of whom were unfamiliar. Yet, there was a sense of familiarity amidst the unfamiliarity. Lin Yun quickly realized that these unfamiliar auras belonged to none other than the descendants of his subordinates.
Moreover, many of the descendants of these subordinates are also very powerful, with the most powerful even reaching the peak Saint King level.
He had only been away from the Netherworld for a few months and had entered the Great World of Living Beings when such a great change occurred in the fifty-third heaven of the Netherworld, which made him feel quite strange.
It should be noted that when he was the Blood Emperor, he mostly traveled alone, so he didn't have a deep impression of the flow of time. In addition, at that time, the Netherworld had only broken through to the twentieth level, and the difference in the flow of time between it and the Great World of Living Beings was far less than it is now. Furthermore, he didn't go to the Great World of Living Beings very often, so he didn't care much about this matter.
However, apart from the Blood Emperor's life, whether it was Ling Tian's life, the God Clan's life, or this life, the impressions were almost all based on the Great World of Living Beings. In particular, Ling Tian's life and the God Clan's life did not enter the Netherworld in either of their lives.
Therefore, at this moment, Lin Yun deeply felt the power of time and the terrifying speed of time flow in the Netherworld.
He had only been in the Great World of Living Beings for a few months, yet the number of his subordinates had increased several times, and his strength had increased many times over. If tens of thousands or hundreds of millions of years had passed in the Great World of Living Beings, what would that have been like?
Moreover, he estimated that this was because his subordinates hadn't really relaxed their birth restrictions. Otherwise, even though it was difficult for cultivators to reproduce, doubling the population every few thousand years wouldn't have been a difficult thing.
Over hundreds of thousands of years, the population could have increased thousands or even tens of thousands of times.
"With the Netherworld as my backing, I will suppress those acquired gods sooner or later..." Lin Yun's eyes flickered slightly as he spoke softly.
At this moment, boundless confidence arose in his heart. Putting aside everything else, the flow of time in the Netherworld alone was a huge advantage.
Right now, he has only broken through the Netherworld to the fifty-fourth level. When he breaks through the Netherworld to the sixty-third, seventy-second, or even eighty-first level, this advantage will increase by hundreds or thousands of times, and this advantage will be even more terrifying.
