"I was actually left behind too..."
Unlike the excitement of ordinary ghost cultivators who were left behind, the Three-Eyed Emperor was also left behind, and he was rather uneasy.
Although he reacted very quickly later and was the first to bow and pay his respects to the Blood Emperor, he was also one of the leading ghost cultivators who led the ghost cultivators to besiege the Blood Emperor at the beginning. In particular, he was the first to break through the thirty-sixth heaven and could be considered the master of the highest heaven in the Netherworld at that time. Moreover, countless ghost cultivators in the Netherworld had long secretly called him the number one ghost cultivator in the Netherworld.
The Blood Emperor asked him to stay; could it be that he wanted to cause him trouble?
Or perhaps, he was previously called the number one ghost cultivator in the Netherworld by the other ghost cultivators, which displeased the Blood Emperor?
However, after thinking about it, he felt that it shouldn't be like that. The Blood Emperor's style shouldn't be so low. Besides, he had never admitted before that he was the number one ghost cultivator in the Netherworld. It was all called that by other ghost cultivators in private.
Just now, the Blood Emperor fought against so many ghost cultivators by himself, demonstrating power far exceeding theirs. He is undoubtedly the strongest in the Netherworld and shouldn't care about this matter.
Perhaps, the Blood Emperor spared him simply because he had high hopes for him? Just like the Blood Emperor spared the other ghost cultivators for the same reason?
Although the Three-Eyed Emperor's thinking leaned most towards this, he was still very worried.
This is the reason for the unknown. The unknown is what cultivators fear most, because you don't know what might happen in the next second.
"The Blood Emperor actually kept the Three-Eyed Emperor, but not us..."
"Forget it, we were just now trying to take advantage of the Blood Emperor, and we're already grateful that he didn't hold it against us..."
"Or perhaps, the Blood Emperor was watching us for so long because he was actually considering whether or not to keep us here? And ultimately decided not to keep us?"
"However, it's unclear why the Blood Emperor kept the Three-Eyed Emperor here. Perhaps he wants to punish him because the Three-Eyed Emperor led us in attacking him? That's quite normal; as the saying goes, the law doesn't punish the masses, only the ringleaders..."
"It's also possible that because the Three-Eyed Emperor is so powerful, the Blood Emperor wants to forcibly subdue him..."
On the other side, seeing that the Three-Eyed Emperor had also been left behind by Lin Yun, Emperor Wu and Emperor Ao's expressions changed constantly, their hearts filled with complex emotions. Apart from a little bit of schadenfreude arising from their own fantasies, they were mostly jealous.
Because they knew that the fact that the Three-Eyed Emperor was kept by the Blood Emperor was more likely a good thing than a bad thing, and it was also very likely related to the fact that the Three-Eyed Emperor was the first to bow and pay respects to the Blood Emperor, just like the ghost cultivators such as Emperor Liwei and Guomuboer who followed later.
Unfortunately, they didn't know the Blood Emperor's identity beforehand and didn't have the same opportunity as the Three-Eyed Emperor. Later, they weren't clever enough and never bowed to the Blood Emperor like the ghost cultivators like Emperor Liwei.
Otherwise, they might have been left here to train.
They thought to themselves with great regret.
Soon, the ghost cultivators finished greeting each other and discussing, and then headed towards the thirty-sixth heaven.
Without the Three-Eyed Emperor, the ruler of the thirty-sixth heaven, accompanying them, some of the more suspicious ghost cultivators breathed a sigh of relief. Although the Three-Eyed Emperor's reputation was mostly good, who knew what kind of personality he had behind the scenes? If he suddenly attacked them when they entered the thirty-sixth heaven, it would be troublesome.
Now, it's just right that the Three-Eyed Emperor is left here.
...
The fortieth heaven space is currently being developed.
In a space brimming with energy, Lin Yun had already begun his cross-legged meditation.
Seeing that most of the powerful ghost cultivators had left, leaving only a few he had designated, he sent a telepathic message to these ghost cultivators, telling them to focus on their cultivation. He then stopped paying attention to them and continued his own cultivation.
Just as some powerful ghost cultivators thought, the opening of the thirty-seventh heaven was actually an extremely massive project, and having some powerful ghost cultivators cultivate here would not have too much of an impact.
In particular, this time, four new heavens were broken at the same time, and the energy descending from heaven and earth was extremely enormous. This made the impact on some powerful ghost cultivators who were cultivating in the thirty-seventh heaven, which had been established and stabilized for several days, even smaller.
Lin Yun was not a stingy person and did not mind letting some ghost cultivators who he liked stay to cultivate.
Some of the ghost cultivators did have some connections with him back then. Just now, these ghost cultivators either had no hostility towards him before, or after learning his identity, they no longer had any hostility but instead became somewhat worried. He didn't mind letting these ghost cultivators take advantage of the situation.
Since he discovered that the Netherworld did not reject his body, he no longer regarded the Netherworld as an ordinary place for cultivation.
He had a vague feeling that the Netherworld might be very important to him, especially when he returned to the God Clan and became an enemy of the new God Clan.
According to many ghost cultivators, and even many powerful beings in the living world, the Netherworld is likely to be an existence comparable to the Great World of Living Beings, an existence of the same level. However, the Netherworld has not yet developed.
However, the flow of time in the Netherworld is many times faster than in the World of Living Beings. If things continue to develop in this way, it will only be a matter of time before the Netherworld catches up with the World of Living Beings.
If, as those powerful figures have analyzed, he may ultimately have to rely on the development of the Netherworld to become an enemy of those new gods.
It should be noted that those new gods only survived by relying on the advanced environments that arose when the world of living beings developed to a certain extent, or by some relics left over from the beginning of time.
The resources in the relics left over from the beginning of time are becoming increasingly scarce. The ultimate development trend of the gods is actually the creation of advanced environments in the great world of living beings, which are renewable resources. Conversely, the relics left over from the beginning of time are difficult to regenerate once they are consumed, and this is not the trend.
If we analyze it this way, when the Netherworld develops to a certain level, could it give rise to some advanced environments comparable to those of the Great World of Living Beings? And could some powerful ghost cultivators reach the level of strength of the new gods of those Great Worlds of Living Beings?
For this reason, he allowed some ghost cultivators to remain in the thirty-seventh heaven to cultivate.
He knew that the development of a space or a world was not just about the development of one person; that would be unhealthy and incomplete. Just like the universe of beings he lived in this life, it had to develop comprehensively to be healthy. Only then would the various forces of the entire universe be stronger, and the forces he could use would also be stronger.
The underworld should be the same.
If he truly wants the Netherworld to develop, then it can't just be him who becomes stronger; many ghost cultivators must also become stronger along with him.
In particular, he was worried that if the Netherworld truly had eighty-one heavens, it had only broken through forty heavens so far, and there were still forty-one more heavens to go. Almost half of them had not been broken through. According to the rule that the further one goes, the harder it is to break through, it was unknown how long it would take for the Netherworld to break through all eighty-one heavens.
He wasn't confident he could break through many more layers of heaven. Although he had never heard of a cultivator breaking through a new layer of heaven if the subsequent layers of heaven didn't interfere, it might reduce the difficulty of breaking through to a new layer.
The main reason is that his life trajectory has kept him away from these kinds of things. He doesn't know how many lifetimes he has reincarnated, but he only has memories of four lifetimes: the Crown Prince of the God Clan, the Blood Emperor, Ling Tian, and Lin Yun.
Perhaps there were many more lifetimes, but in those lifetimes he was too weak to preserve his memories.
Speaking only of his four lifetimes, when he was the crown prince of the God Clan, he was born into the God Clan and possessed immense strength. Due to the nature of his living environment, he had very little contact with cultivators outside the God Clan and with ordinary beings in the universe. Therefore, he did not know much about such matters.
In his first life as the Blood Emperor, he lived in the Netherworld. When the Netherworld first opened, he had only broken through the eighteenth level of the Heavenly Realm. It was only later that he broke through to the twenty-sixth level. After he broke through the new Heavenly Realm of the Netherworld, no other ghost cultivator had ever broken through to the new Heavenly Realm of the Netherworld. Furthermore, the Netherworld had little connection with the Great World of Living Beings, so he naturally did not know about such things.
In his first life, Ling Tian was born in the Great World of Living Beings. Although he had come into contact with some cultivators from the Universe of Living Beings, cultivators from the Universe of Living Beings who had broken through to a new level were ultimately a minority, and those who had broken through to two levels were even fewer. In addition, he devoted most of his energy to cultivation and did not pay much attention to miscellaneous matters, so he was not very clear about this matter.
Lin Yun's life spanned only a few decades. Along the way, various events unfolded in rapid succession, leaving him little opportunity to come into contact with other miscellaneous matters, and he was unaware of them.
However, the combined experiences of his past lives, especially those of the Blood Emperor and his current life, have led him to some vague speculations.
Initially, he only broke through to the twenty-sixth level. He didn't break through the next ten levels. This time, when he broke through to the thirty-seventh level, he found that the repulsive force was almost non-existent.
However, as he broke through layer after layer of new heavens and refined a large amount of Netherworld Origin Power, he discovered that the repulsive force began to increase rapidly, which made him even more certain of his guess.
If his guess is correct, then it is not impossible for him to break through the final three most important heavens of the Netherworld.
The premise is... that during this process, he cannot break through some of the new heavens of the Netherworld.
Therefore, the ghost cultivators he left behind this time included some ghost cultivators he knew from the beginning, the ghost cultivators who had bowed to him earlier, and some ghost cultivators with lower cultivation levels but extremely strong talents and great potential.
Most of these ghost cultivators were Saint-level ghost cultivators, which is why Lin Yun left behind many Saint-level ghost cultivators.
Having broken through so many new realms of living beings and the Netherworld, Lin Yun deeply understands the importance of low cultivation level and young age. Therefore, the ghost cultivators he left behind are mostly not very old.
but……
These are all things that happened later. Lin Yun did not forget his purpose in entering the Netherworld this time, which was mainly to improve his strength.
He could decide on how to mentor and train these ghost cultivators later. Right now, he needed to take advantage of the effects of his breakthrough of four new heavens and cultivate rapidly, which was the right path.
This time, as he journeys to the Great World of Living Beings, he will not only face those invincible Saint King beings and some powerful peak Saint King beings, but he also needs to be wary of whether he can withstand a Divine Realm cultivator if he encounters one.
Naturally, the stronger he is, the better.
Whew! Whew! Whew!
These thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant. Lin Yun closed his eyes, quickly cleared his mind of all distractions, and focused on his cultivation. His aura began to increase rapidly, and he made great progress every second.
Below.
The ghost cultivators left behind by Lin Yun, who were feeling uneasy, were reassured by his voice and quickly settled down. They chose their spots and began to cultivate.
The thirty-seventh heaven has opened up a large space, but the concentration of the power of heaven and earth in this space is not the same. If you choose a good location, you will achieve twice the result with half the effort. Fortunately, Lin Yun left behind not many ghost cultivators, and there are quite a few of these concentrations of the power of heaven and earth in the thirty-seventh heaven. These ghost cultivators did not have any disputes and all entered a state of cultivation in a very harmonious manner.
Of course, with Lin Yun present, they dared not argue. Now that the thirty-seventh heaven has just opened, the concentration of heaven and earth power in these areas of high concentration is not much different, so it's fine as long as it's about the same.
If a dispute leads to the Blood Emperor's displeasure and he drives you away, then you'll truly suffer a great loss.
Such a training environment is rare, so they should seize the time to train, as every minute or second they miss is a significant loss.
Whew! Whew! Whew!
As these ghost cultivators immersed themselves in their cultivation, their aura began to increase rapidly.
One hour... two hours...
One day... two days...
Two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Because this time they broke through four new layers of heaven, the amount of pure energy descending from heaven and earth was beyond imagination. The Three-Eyed Emperor and his group of ghost cultivators did not expect that this dense energy environment would last for so long.
During this period, several ghost cultivators have broken through to their original realms, and those who haven't broken through yet have also made great progress. Some ghost cultivators are afraid of wasting time and have been restraining themselves from breaking through, while others are taking some more time to consolidate their strength, and breaking through in the future will not be difficult.
In short, all these ghost cultivators have made great progress, including the Three-Eyed Emperor. He felt that his strength had increased by about 10% or 20%. If he hadn't used his innate divine power before, his strength wouldn't have been much stronger than Emperor Wu and Emperor Ao. Now, his strength has clearly surpassed that of Emperor Wu and Emperor Ao.
If he were in the Thirty-Sixth Heaven, defeating Emperor Wu and Emperor Ao would not be difficult for him. If he were to use his Divine Eye ability again, he would even be confident that he could kill Emperor Wu and Emperor Ao without difficulty. This was something he could not do before, so it was of extraordinary significance.
Two months later, the four new heavens were almost fully opened. With the complete opening of the fortieth heaven, the power of heaven and earth that had been created out of thin air also began to decline rapidly.
The ghost cultivators felt a deep sense of regret, but there was nothing they could do. Such cultivation opportunities were rare and hard to come by. The fact that they could have two months of cultivation time was already an enormous opportunity.
Thinking this, some of the ghost cultivators felt extremely grateful to the Blood Emperor. If it weren't for the Blood Emperor's permission, they wouldn't have been able to obtain such an opportunity.
"Three-Eyed Emperor, I have something I want to ask you." Just then, a voice suddenly rang out in front of the Three-Eyed Emperor. Because this voice was not transmitted or deliberately blocked, all the ghost cultivators heard it. They were all startled awake and quickly got up.
"We pay our respects to the Blood Emperor." The ghost cultivators bowed respectfully to Lin Yun.
"Three-Eyed greets Blood Emperor. Before Blood Emperor, Three-Eyed dares not call himself Emperor. Blood Emperor, you may simply call me Three-Eyed. If you have any questions, Blood Emperor, please feel free to ask. Three-Eyed will answer without reservation..." Three-Eyed Emperor also bowed respectfully to Lin Yun and said.
