Chapter 905 The Purest Ao Shu

Grandma Long was very warm towards both Xiao Aoshu and Lin Yi.

Thinking that Lin Yi and the others had gone through a tough battle, Granny Long did not disturb them too much. After explaining some simple precautions for the Dark Xing headquarters, she left.

After seeing his senior off, Lin Yi found a recliner and threw himself onto it.

Ever since entering the Nine Netherworlds, Lin Yi's nerves have been constantly on edge, and even the two powerful figures within his body have been burdened with pressure.

Now that they were finally in a safe place, Lin Yi was determined to relax.

Although the chair was made of wood, it was ergonomically designed. Lin Yi lay on it and found it extremely comfortable. It was only then that Lin Yi had the mind to seriously examine the furnishings of his residence.

According to Luang Phor, she had a lot of interaction with Da Xia, and she must have put a lot of thought into designing a house full of Da Xia style.

Xiao Ao Shu did not take on a human form. She shrank her size and floated beside Lin Yi, occasionally nuzzling him with her head.

"Brother Lin Yi, I can sense that the old woman just now has a bloodline very similar to mine. I feel that if I learn more from her in the future, I can learn a lot. If I learn all of Granny Long's skills, it might relieve a lot of pressure for Brother Lin Yi. What do you think, Brother Lin Yi?"

Whether it's due to a lack of experience or simply her nature, this young woman had no other thoughts besides helping Lin Yi, truly embodying the title of "battle pet."

The survival rules of these myriad worlds are indeed cruel, but that is not the whole story. Xiao Ao Shu has grown up under Lin Yi's care since birth. She is indeed Lin Yi's battle pet, but that does not prevent Lin Yi from treating her as a younger sister he has watched grow up.

Xi Yue also lay down next to Lin Yi.

Since acquiring the Jormungandr Martial Soul, her strength has undergone a qualitative leap.

Those with great power naturally possess arrogance, and Jormungandr is no exception. Even in death, it would not allow anyone to easily control its power. However, after being warned by Wuzhiqi, things changed.

Jormungandr was quite philosophical about it, offering himself some comfort:
Becoming a martial soul, especially a martial soul of a talented female war goddess, is better than living in constant fear in that dark and sunless cave. Besides, following an ancient god like Wuzhiqi, there's no guarantee that she'll survive until her day of triumph and be resurrected.

Besides providing assistance to Xiyue in battle, it also gave Xiyue a lot of guidance in her cultivation. After all, the sooner Xiyue could achieve her goal of becoming a high-level god, the sooner Jormungandr could be resurrected.

During her time in the Undead Space, Xi Yue witnessed many battles and benefited greatly. Her understanding of herself and her combat experience improved significantly. Now that she finally had a chance to rest, she naturally wanted to lie down next to Lin Yi and relax properly.

Compared to the tranquility and leisure of the two people and the dragon, Zi Yue's feelings were somewhat complicated.

Previously, Ziyue would be in a great mood after completing a mission. She had protected someone important to her, and the sense of accomplishment was overwhelming.

Ever since Lin Yi analyzed the situation for her, and ever since she realized that her efforts would be endless and there would be no reward, Zi Yue's Dao heart began to crumble somewhat.

To be precise, she lost her direction in life.

After centuries of painstaking effort, to end up being betrayed is something probably no one can accept.

Seeing the warmth and tranquility of Lin Yi and the other two, Zi Yue seemed a little awkward and at a loss.

The observant Lin Yi noticed this and spoke up just as Zi Yue was about to turn away in dejection.

"Life is full of scumbags. If you've wasted your time on someone, so be it. Just learn from your mistakes and cherish the opportunity when you get a chance to go to a higher platform, right?"

"Tomorrow, I'll go with you to your planet. Listen to my arrangements, and I'll show you the true colors of those guys. If you really can't bring yourself to do it, I'll help you." These few words made Ziyue feel enlightened, and her mood improved considerably.

There weren't many people at the Dark Star headquarters, and everyone had important things to do, so Lin Yi's arrival didn't cause much of a stir.

While things calmed down on Lin Yi's side, chaos began to ensue on the side of the gods and immortals.

Gods from all sides and factions gathered at the pinnacle of the gods in the upper plane.

Ever since it was revealed that the gods had constructed passageways between neighboring planets so that they could kill each other and obtain primal energy, the order established by the gods began to fall into chaos.

First, the neighboring planets stopped fighting each other.

Even the lowest of creatures, in the lowest planes, possess a certain level of intelligence. No race would allow its existence to be merely sustenance for others.

Once they understood this, even the biggest conflicts between neighboring planets were temporarily set aside.

Secondly, those who serve the gods, such as messengers of calamities, have suffered many setbacks in the lower realms.

Previously, having witnessed the divine messenger's immense power and knowing that the divine messenger represented the gods of the heavens, the powerful beings of the lower planes were willing to obey the divine messenger's orders and advice.

However, after Lin Yi exposed the true colors of the gods, the divine messengers became like rats in the street, attracting attacks from the local natives no matter what plane or planet they went to.

Planets that cannot be defeated may even receive aid from neighboring planets with which they have conflicts.

Every single event that occurred was a slap in the face to the gods, so holding a meeting to discuss the matter and decide how to respond became an urgent matter.

At this meeting, the Celestial King sat in the center, surrounded by powerful high-ranking gods.

It is precisely because of the strength of his own forces that the Celestial King is able to firmly sit on the throne of the gods and make decisions on most matters in the Three Realms and Six Paths.

If Lin Yi stood before the Immortal King and tried to decipher it with the All-Seeing Eye, he would find that the All-Seeing Eye's answer was that there was no solution.

Once he reached the level of the Immortal King, many of the rules of the Three Realms and Six Paths could no longer bind him.

The Buddhas of the Lingdu Mountain sect sat beside the Immortal King lineage.

Led by the leader of all Buddhas, they all sat with smiles on their faces and their eyes closed. It was not hard to tell from the positions of the two factions that they shared the same stance.

That is why the gods were able to remain calm even when such a huge blunder occurred.

From the Celestial King's perspective, the dark mass of heads was filled with the heads of high-ranking gods.

Having witnessed such a momentous event, the Celestial King was well aware that his position among the gods had been significantly impacted. However, when he saw many high-ranking gods looking at him with the eyes of prey, the Celestial King's heart remained largely unmoved.

Normally, the Celestial King would have already eliminated him.

However, as a Celestial King, his authority was undeniable. Those who were resentful but dared not meet his gaze would slink down and lower their heads.
