"Is it really that terrifying when a cultivator breaks through the final three heavens of a universe...?"
"It's because his strength is so terrifying that he was able to break through the final three heavens of this universe..."
The Holy King of Love's Sorrow had a complicated expression on his face and said in a low voice.
Perhaps, it's a combination of both.
In the vast outside world, it is extremely rare for someone to break through two of the three heavens in the final three heavens of a universe, even rarer than an invincible holy king.
He had never heard of anyone who could break through the last three heavens of a universe.
It's conceivable that someone capable of this would be no ordinary genius.
The human boy in front of me fits the bill perfectly.
Otherwise, he simply couldn't imagine what kind of genius could achieve this.
"The Invincible Saint King... Speaking of the Invincible Saint King, now that he has broken through to the Upper Saint King realm, he should possess strength comparable to the Invincible Saint King, right? At the very least, within this universe, he has the strength to fight the Invincible Saint King, or at least not by much. As long as he doesn't leave this universe, there will be almost no Saint King realm cultivators who can pose a threat to him..."
After a pause, the Love-Sorrow Saint King thought to himself.
outside world.
Many cultivators were gathered around the living universe where Lin Yun was, all of them eager to make a move.
"Why are so many of those high-ranking Saint Kings entering this universe of living beings...?"
"What kind of encounters will this newly opened universe of living beings have?"
"Even if they've had some great opportunity, they should have received it by now, right? If we go in now, we should be safe, shouldn't we?"
"Shall we go in and take a look? If there really is some great opportunity, perhaps they're too busy with it to bother with us..."
"Perhaps the opportunities in this universe are vast, and even those high-ranking Saint Kings cannot claim them all. If we go in now, we can still get a share. But if we go in too late, it's hard to say!"
"I've heard that this universe of living beings is connected to the Netherworld..."
One by one, the cultivators transmitted their thoughts to each other. Some of the cultivators had more reliable information, which was sent by the Saintly Monarch cultivator who had escaped earlier. However, since the Saintly Monarch cultivator himself did not come in, these cultivators were not sure if the matter was true or false.
It is indeed a great opportunity for a living universe to connect with the Netherworld, but this great opportunity does not need to be rushed, because no one knows what the situation is like in the Netherworld.
At this time, it wouldn't be a bad thing if some top cultivators went in to take a look first.
If there are top-tier ghost cultivators in the Netherworld, those top cultivators can deal with them, or even kill them. As for the remaining low-level ghost cultivators, those top cultivators probably won't bother dealing with them. That's the fate of the cultivators who enter later.
"boom--"
Just then, three powerful auras suddenly burst out from that living universe, and after leaving that universe, these three powerful auras did not stop for the first time, and continued to fly rapidly in the direction away from that living universe, at an extremely fast speed.
"What is that?"
"what happened?"
"Those three auras seem to be... three of the Saint King level experts who went in just now?"
"It's the Butcher Saint King! The Black Jade Saint King! The Nine Capital Saint King!"
Seeing three powerful auras suddenly burst out from that living universe and rush towards the distance, the cultivators outside were all surprised. Some powerful cultivators recognized the identities of these three powerful auras.
The Butcher Saint King is a top-tier expert at the intermediate Saint King level. True to his name, he often kills entire families and exterminates entire clans in a fit of rage. However, his talent is exceptional, his strength is formidable, and he is also pragmatic, never provoking cultivators much stronger than himself. As a result, no cultivator has ever been able to defeat him, and his reputation is renowned throughout the entire Great World of Living Beings.
Black Jade Saint King and Nine Capital Saint King are both top-tier experts among the mid-level Saint Kings, and each of them is renowned.
However, why are these three renowned mid-level Saint Kings in such a "rush" now?
To say it was "hasty" is actually a nice way of putting it. If we were to put it in a less flattering way, it would seem like... a hasty and disheveled escape?
"What's going on? What on earth has happened in this universe of living beings?"
"What about the other Saint Kings? Saint King Qingshang is a peak Saint King, Saint King Guiwu and Saint King Lingyu are all top-tier Saint Kings... Could it be that they encountered extremely powerful enemies inside? Saint King Qingshang and the others are fighting off those enemies inside, while Saint King Butcher and the other two, being weaker, withdrew first?"
"What kind of powerful enemy could have caused three mid-level Saint Kings to flee in such a sorry state, and even required several peak and high-level Saint Kings, such as the Love-Sorrow Saint King and the Returning Crow Saint King, to cover their retreat?"
Some cultivators gasped in shock.
"Could it be the Invincible Holy King?"
"This universe is connected to the Netherworld. Could it be that a top expert from the Netherworld has emerged, like... that Blood Emperor of the Netherworld? He is capable of fighting three peak Saint Kings single-handedly. If that Blood Emperor of the Netherworld were to come, Saint King Qingshang and Saint King Guiwu might not be a match for him..."
Some practitioners speculated and tried to understand the Dao.
"Luckily, we didn't go in. It was only because three mid-level Saint Kings fled in such a sorry state that we were caught in the crossfire. If we had gone in, we would have been easy prey. We would have been wiped out without a trace if we had been caught in the crossfire..."
"Yeah, thank goodness we didn't go in..."
"The three mid-level Saint Kings have all fled in disarray, so let's leave this place quickly! No matter what great opportunities may arise in this universe, these opportunities are no longer something we can afford to encounter!"
"Hurry! Hurry! Let's get going first!"
Some practitioners were relieved, but many more decided to leave.
The three mid-level Saint Kings were fleeing at high speed, while they were leisurely waiting here for the situation to unfold. Did they have a death wish?
As they spoke, a large number of cultivators began to retreat, and their speed increased rapidly.
What do we do?
"Butcher, Jiudu, and Hei Gui, three mid-level Saint Kings, have all escaped. We are only at the lower level... Have you noticed that Butcher and Hei Gui seem to be seriously injured? Their life force is much weaker than ours..."
The two lower-ranking Saint Kings whispered as they flew into the distance.
Before long, all the cultivators around this universe were gone, and the surrounding space became extremely quiet.
Subsequently, news spread throughout the vast world of living beings.
This newly opened Thirty-Six Heavenly Spirit Universe is connected to the Netherworld. There is a native being in it who is extremely powerful and bloodthirsty. Five Saint Kings, including the Peak Saint King Qing Shang, the Upper Saint King Gui Wu, the Ling Yu Ling Saint King, and the Dong Zhou Saint King, have fallen at its hands. The weakest among them is a Middle Saint King.
In an instant, the entire world of living beings trembled.
The fall of so many Saint Kings, especially so many high-level Saint Kings, is an extremely rare occurrence in the entire world of living beings.
"interesting……"
"I want to see what strange things are in that universe of beings..."
"It's highly unusual for a thirty-sixth heaven universe to suddenly produce such a powerful native cultivator. However, the connection with the Netherworld is something they can't do. It would be more plausible if it were a top-tier universe with seventy-two or eighty-one heavens..."
Throughout the vast world of living beings, in countless hidden spaces, cultivators, upon receiving the message, opened their eyes, chuckled softly, and whispered.
If any cultivators who knew them saw these people, they would be shocked, because these cultivators were legendary figures in the entire world of living beings. Several of them had been bestowed the title of Invincible Saint King, and even those who had not been bestowed the title of Invincible Saint King were all recognized as having strength far exceeding that of ordinary peak Saint Kings.
That's quite normal. According to reports, the peak Saint King, the Love-Sorrow Saint King, along with a group of upper-class and middle-class Saint Kings, went to that universe and were almost completely wiped out. What Saint King would dare to set foot in that universe again?
Whew! Whew! Whew!
One by one, powerful cultivators headed to the universe where Lin Yun was.
Having cultivated to their level, they deeply understand that cultivation is a matter that depends heavily on opportunities. Without opportunities, how many people can cultivate to their level by simply burying themselves in hard work?
Now that a place that seemed to hold great potential had appeared, they naturally wanted to go and see for themselves.
However, several days passed.
One message after another was released.
After the invincible Saint King, the Nine Heavens Saint King, the Big Dipper Saint King, the peak Saint King, the Pure Yang Saint King, and the Plum Saint King entered that Thirty-Six Heavens Universe, they all returned defeated. One or two of them even left that universe in a very sorry state, as if fleeing for their lives.
From then on, the fame of that Thirty-Six Heavens Universe grew even greater.
Many cultivators also gave that thirty-sixth heaven universe a name: the Blood Fiend Universe.
Because, it is said that there is a very powerful local cultivator there who, with only the Saint King realm, can defeat a group of Saint Kings and is ruthless in his attacks.
He wielded a blood sword, and with a single strike, a sea of blood would engulf the heavens. It was said that the blood sword was very likely the weapon of the legendary top ghost cultivator, the Blood Emperor, from the Netherworld.
Many cultivators were unsure, but based on the other party's methods, they gave him the title of Blood Fiend Saint Lord.
That universe of living beings was naturally also called the Blood Fiend Universe.
This is something that many cultivators in the great world of living beings tacitly agree on, and they usually name their universe after the name of the strongest being in that universe, unless that strongest being has not been given any other name.
If the strongest person is given another name, they are usually named after that strongest person.
In fact, a name is just a label, just to let people know which place it is. Many places have several names, as long as people know which place it is.
The Great World of Living Beings, a place for cultivation.
A cultivator who had been in seclusion for a long time heard this news as soon as he emerged from his seclusion, and his heart was shaken.
"Truly worthy of being called the Blood Emperor... He actually killed so many high-level Saint Kings... The Invincible Saint King and those extremely powerful peak Saint Kings all suffered defeats and even fled for their lives..." The cultivator exclaimed in shock.
This cultivator was none other than Rosen Saint King, the first lower-level Saint King to enter Lin Yun's universe.
Looking back now, it seems he was incredibly lucky to have survived the Blood Emperor's clutches.
Look at the White Emperor, one of the Nine Emperors of the Netherworld who entered earlier, and then look at the Love-Sorrow Saint King, Returning Crow Saint King, and others who entered later. Aren't they all many times stronger than him?
Those people were all killed by the Blood Emperor, but he was lucky enough to survive.
During his seclusion, he had been trying to recover the strength he had lost in Lin Yun's universe, but the results were not good. He was originally a little depressed, but at this moment, the depression in Rosen Saint King's heart was swept away, leaving only relief.
Compared to the lives lost by those powerful holy kings, what is the little bit of power he lost?
That said, Lin Yun truly lives up to his reputation as the reincarnation of the Blood Emperor. His strength recovery speed is incredibly fast. In such a short time, he has gone from being slightly stronger than a mid-level Saint King to being comparable to an invincible Saint King, killing ordinary peak Saint Kings and upper-level Saint Kings as easily as slaughtering dogs.
Compared to him, he only recovered some of his strength, which was extremely difficult. There really is no way to compare between cultivators.
Compared to the talent and strength of that Blood Emperor, he should really just kill himself.
Just as all sorts of news were circulating in the vast world of living beings.
The universe where Lin Yun resides is what cultivators outside call the Blood Fiend Universe.
"What did you say?" Lin Yun stared at a Saint King-level cultivator and said in a deep voice.
“Li Qi, you said that Dao Ancestor has been captured…” Zhenwu Saint Monarch said, also very shocked.
This Saint-level cultivator was the very cultivator Lin Yun had sensed earlier, someone who had hesitated to enter this universe and was somehow connected to it.
Li Qi, one of the seventy-two disciples Xiao Erduo took in after reincarnating in this universe.
He was also one of the disciples who participated in breaking through more than a dozen heavens in this universe back then. Later, he left this universe with Little Ear.
In recent years, Li Qi has been staying outside this universe.
When this universe opened, Li Qi did not see Zhenwu Saint Monarch leave. In addition, he saw Rosen Saint King enter this universe and was not clear about what was happening inside. Therefore, he hesitated whether to come in or not.
After Saint King Rosen left in a disheveled state, while he hesitated, another group of Saint Kings arrived from outside this universe, namely Saint King Qingshang and his group. Some of the Saint Kings forbade them to enter, so he was unable to enter.
Later, the group of the Love-Sorrow Saint King entered this universe. Later still, when the Butcher and several other mid-level Saint Kings fled in a sorry state, many cultivators followed suit. Seeing this scene, he also ran away.
Because it was something outside the universe, Lin Yun had difficulty sensing it, so after Li Qi left, he did not go out to look for him.
Because his strength is only at its peak within the universe. Once he leaves the universe, he might be targeted by powerful cultivators, which would be troublesome.
Then... news spread that some invincible Saint Kings and powerful peak Saint Kings had returned defeated in this universe...
Li Qi gritted his teeth and decided to come in.
Unexpectedly, this brought such big news.
"When the Holy Queen Ziyun was captured, Dao Ancestor went to rescue her, but he was also captured. The other party threatened Dao Ancestor's life, and the Holy Queen Ziyun had no choice but to agree to marry the other party after a hundred years. The Holy Queen Ziyun sent me here to wait for Dao Ancestor, and told me not to tell Dao Ancestor about this matter directly after I arrived. I was to find out Dao Ancestor's strength first. If it was not enough, there was no need to tell her. She would die to uphold her chastity. In the future, I will tell Dao Ancestor about this matter and let Dao Ancestor avenge them..." Li Qi took a deep breath and recounted the whole story with a slightly excited tone.
Ever since the Dao Ancestor was captured by the other party, his mood has been suppressed for a long time.
Unexpectedly, the Blood Fiend Saint Lord, who has recently become famous throughout the entire world of living beings, is actually the reincarnation of their Dao Ancestor's friend.
Now, the Dao Ancestor and the Holy King Ziyun are saved.
"Peak Saint King, Qin Yin Saint King? What a Qin Yin Saint King! A mere Peak Saint King, how dare you touch my friend!" Lin Yun laughed angrily, his voice low and deep.
You could hear the intense anger he was forcibly suppressing; clearly, he was furious about the matter.
"Why not just say it directly..." A strange light flashed deep in Lin Yun's eyes.
When he was the Blood Emperor, the Netherworld was a complex place. He fought his way to the top of the Netherworld but didn't make many friends among the cultivators. When he was Ling Tian, he traveled in the Great World of Living Beings and made some friends.
Xiao Erduo was one, and Zi Yun was another. At the same time, his situation with Zi Yun was somewhat complicated. Zi Yun had feelings for him, and he also had feelings for Zi Yun, but they never confessed their feelings. This situation continued until his death.
“Hundreds of millions of years have passed, and your personality hasn’t changed much… You’re still so considerate of others…” Lin Yun said in a low voice.
"How long until the hundred years that the Holy King of Qin Music mentioned?" The next moment, Lin Yun raised his eyes, looked at Li Qi, and asked.
“There are only ten days left. A few days ago, I heard that the other side seems to have started to hold a wedding. I was anxious, so I gritted my teeth and came in without confirming the situation in this universe…” Li Qi said.
At that time, he really made a huge decision about whether or not to enter this universe.
After all, the messages that were being sent out were truly astonishing.
The message mentioned that the Blood Fiend Saint King was ruthless and merciless, killing people without hesitation. He was afraid that he would be killed as soon as he entered this universe. In that case, his life would be another matter, and this message would be completely lost.
Back then, of the seventy-two disciples under the Dao Ancestor, Zhenwu Saint Lord and Langya Saint remained in this universe. The rest were either captured, killed, or left out of fear of being implicated. Only he himself remained.
If he dies, there will be no one to carry out the tasks conveyed by the Holy King Ziyun.
"More than ten days?" Lin Yun frowned slightly.
During this period, one powerful Saint King-level cultivator after another entered this universe, allowing the Blood Prison Sword to absorb a lot of essence and blood power, greatly increasing its strength. However, its strength is only very strong within this universe; once it leaves this universe, it becomes somewhat insufficient.
