From the waste of spiritual roots to the practice of asking the devil.

There are still several decades left before the end of the Immortal Abode's century-long term, and Wang Yu originally had plenty of free time to explore more ancient imperial heritage sites.

The Immortal Abode is full of opportunities, and everything you encounter is a treasure.

He left so suspiciously, feeling somewhat resentful, but there was nothing Wang Yu could do...

He really couldn't deal with Long Ting, and he didn't know if the other party had any methods to target the Immortal Mansion. If they sent out a Tribulation Transcending stage expert, he would be in a very difficult situation.

but.

He remembered this grudge!

If given the opportunity in the future, I will definitely avenge this humiliation.

Just as he arrived at the spatial traversal altar that the White Lotus Fairy had prepared in advance, the Jade Void Glazed Wall that had been constantly enveloping his primordial spirit suddenly shook.

Wang Yu's eyes narrowed.

He quickly activated the Heavenly Jade Disc and the Three Thousand Weak Water Realm to strengthen the Glazed Wall's ability to remain unaffected by cause and effect and to shield himself from all information.

The Jade Void Glazed Wall is only a little bit away from being upgraded to a Celestial-grade secret technique, as it has extremely strong protective capabilities against the deductions of True Immortals.

Unless it's someone like the Tai Xuan Karma True Immortal.

otherwise.

Trying to calculate his location and origins across endless space and time is basically a pipe dream. As a demonic cultivator, he's long been used to causing trouble everywhere.

He naturally gave the utmost respect to the ability to save one's life.

At the same time.

Outside the Qilin Immortal Abode, in the boundless cosmic sea, countless void boats completely surrounded the entrance to the Immortal Abode. It was the Nine Tribulations Old Dragon who allowed Wang Yu to enter first.

He was standing in front of the dragon clan's true immortal who guarded the immortal abode.

He spoke respectfully.

"Senior Xuanhuang Dragon Immortal, His Highness Yefeng's life tablet is broken. I suspect it was that Qilin Prince who did it. What do you think..."

Amidst the swirling, mysterious yellow mist, the shapes of mountains and rivers were faintly outlined, with a bright yellow dragon coiling among the peaks, mostly obscured by the mist.

His dragon eyes were bright and piercing, as if endless divine light emanated from them.

The surrounding laws retreated, and the fruits of the Dao were woven together.

Together they created a realm of true immortals where all paths were silent. Upon hearing the old dragon's words, he succinctly replied.

"Wait."

That's all.

The invisible cause and effect penetrated the barriers of real space to pursue the Qilin Child who had formed a karmic bond with the Dragon Court in the dark, but soon... a look of surprise flashed in the dragon's eyes.

He pondered for a long time before speaking.

“Little Jin, this person possesses a celestial-level treasure of karma. Unless the Taixu Dragon Immortal takes action, ordinary dragon immortals simply cannot penetrate the protective layer of this celestial treasure.”

The Nine Tribulations Old Dragon was shocked. Even the Xuanhuang Dragon Immortal couldn't do that.

"So, how should we deal with this prodigy?"

Xuanhuang Longxian pondered for a moment and then said.

"First, send the Void Ancient Ape Clan over to seal off the space in this area, preventing the Qilin Child from jumping out of the Immortal Mansion directly."

"Let Ao Yechen lead the team with 30,000 gold and silver dragon guards. Ye Feng is his younger brother and also a candidate for True Dragon Dao Child of my Dragon Court. If he, as a True Dragon Dao Child, cannot capture the Qilin Child, then he should take some time to mature."

The Nine Tribulations Old Dragon quickly bowed his head in agreement.

He was utterly astonished. The "accumulation" that Xuanhuang Dragon Immortal spoke of didn't mean you could just accumulate experience for a few years; that would be a denial of your talent.

According to the Dragon Court's training system, to receive such a comment from the Dragon Immortal is a once-in-a-lifetime achievement.

If they cannot find an opportunity to prove themselves again.

This Prince Yechen will likely be nailed to the pillar of shame, never to rise again. Such a severe punishment will surely motivate him.

after all.

As the most noble and most likely to become an immortal in the Dragon Court, the True Dragon Child is also the most outstanding genius among all the races in the universe.

There are many candidates for this position, and even those whose parents have a little bit of influence can get the "candidate" prefix. To remove it, one must gain the Dragon Emperor's approval!

It is extremely difficult.

With this arrangement, even if Ao Yechen was unwilling, he dared not gamble with his future.

…………

Wang Yu was unaware of Long Ting's arrangements.

Anyway, he has already activated the Space Travel Altar. This thing is a perfect match with the Space Travel Dao Fruit. Even the barrier of the Immortal Mansion World cannot stop it.

In the blink of an eye, the world before my eyes had completely changed.

'This should still be within the Ancient Demon Immortal Realm...'

This contradicts what the White Lotus Fairy initially said. It wasn't that she was deceived, but rather that Wang Yu deliberately did this.

They traveled directly from the Immortal Abode back to the Vast Immortal Realm.

Crossing such a long distance requires a massive amount of energy. Even with the spiritual energy from the immortal realm, the resulting disturbance would be too great.

This does not align with Wang Yu's strategy of making a low-key escape.

Moreover, its location is very likely to be locked, rendering his Jade Void Glazed Wall useless.

What he wanted was for these demons to be unable to figure out the true nature of the Qilin Child.

There is space to travel through the path with fruit by your side.

Returning on his own would simply take a little more time; he wasn't afraid of the trouble, he was just worried about not cleaning up the mess.

at the moment.

Wang Yu continued to calculate the location. When he sensed the spatial beacon he had deliberately left in the outer universe sea when he entered the Ancient Demon Immortal Realm, he directly activated the mysteries of the Void Heaven Myriad Laws.

With a wave of his hand, boundless magical power constructed a spatial wormhole.

His body instantly sank into the shimmering wormhole passage, each step traversing tens of thousands of light-years. This was the ultimate mystery of the space travel Dao Fruit.

After enduring nine tribulations and attaining the immortal fruit in the future.

This Dao Fruit allows him to instantly appear anywhere in a celestial realm, making cross-realm journeys take only a moment; that is when he truly maximizes his mobility.

And so it went.

Having made prior arrangements, and being as easily frightened as a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow, Wang acted like a cowardly lizard, dusting himself off and returning to the desolate wilderness.

Leaving behind a mess, it also severely damaged Ao Yechen, the True Dragon Dao Child. Almost immediately after the Void Ancient Ape Clan even sealed off most of the Ancient Demon Immortal Realm, Ao Yechen appeared with the Golden and Silver Dragon Guards.

Furthermore, with guidance from the Nine Tribulations Old Dragon, they prepared to start with the Qilin Bone Talisman to track the location of the Qilin Child.

As for the outcome, those who know, know.

That's all in hindsight.

…………

…………

Outer Universe Ocean.

Wang Yu reverted to his Blood Fly form and sat cross-legged in front of the World-Opening Divine Ship, using the Devouring Law to draw endless violent energy from the cosmic sea.

If other cultivators were to imitate this, they would likely be struck by such violent power, causing chaos within their caverns, or even being shattered into pieces.

Wang Yu, however, was different.

With the Jianmu tree and the World Tree providing double stability, the second layer of the spiritual world contains countless "Heavenly Demons" formed from Wang Yu's demonic thoughts, under the command of the Yin Body Divine Embryo, who cultivates the "Heavenly Demon Star God Refining Treasure Record".

These demonic thoughts are all materials for his cultivation.

This situation, so similar to the real Heavenly Demon Realm, made Wang Yu doubt the true Heavenly Demon Realm, believing that it might be a "relic" left behind by the former Heavenly Demon Star God.

However, this was only his guess. Some of these demonic thoughts came from Wang Yu's main body, and some were generated spontaneously during the cultivation of the Yin Body Divine Embryo, combined with the method of the Mind Hell.

The second layer of overlapping mental space is like a cage.

It is like a large net, tightly connecting all the spaces of the Myriad Transformations True Demon Cave Heaven, causing the Cave Heaven's origin to surge day by day.

Its natural growth rate is much faster than that of many cultivators who painstakingly cultivate.

Wang Yu's primordial spirit has reached the Seven-Pattern Star God Realm.

On the Yin Body Divine Embryo side, it's probably at the fifth level. Because it's been nurtured by the Heavenly Demon Star, its cultivation efficiency is faster than Wang Yu's main body.

However, lacking the assistance of precious treasures, the actual improvement speed is much slower than that of the Taiyin Star God!
Wang Yu wasn't in a hurry about this; he would let it catch up naturally. If it really couldn't catch up, he could use the placement bar, and it would be made up in a maximum of sixty years.

"The fourth Dao Fruit, barring any unforeseen circumstances, should be the Devouring Dao Fruit. At that time, the Dao of Time will reach 90%. Then it will be Slaughter and the Sun... to cultivate the Great Dao Divine Power Technique of Sun, Moon and Dragon Eyes to perfection."

After sorting it out.

For him, absorbing the violent energy of the outer cosmic sea during his current journey is also a form of cultivation.

After a Mahayana cultivator condenses their Dao Fruit, their next task is to find a way to transcend the tribulation.

Wang Yu condensed the Dao Fruit at the early stage of Mahayana, which is obviously different from others. In addition to comprehending the laws and condensing the Dao Fruit, the most important cultivation goal in the Mahayana stage is to increase the origin of the cave heaven.

To make it grow strong enough to connect with reality, and even to fully manifest its purpose!

Continue this practice.

It won't be long before he makes another breakthrough, no... I should say it'll be long before he returns to the Vast Immortal Realm.

His path of spiritual practice has always been like this.

This isn't the first time someone has tried to plan three steps ahead and achieve their training goals ahead of time in order to "skip classes" and quickly break through to the next level.

Furthermore, Wang Yu harbored a hidden ambition.

——The tribulation period!

From the perspective of immortal theory, it is actually a transitional realm. As long as one has the ability to attract tribulations, that is, to attract all nine tribulations at the same time, it is possible to break through from the Great Ascension Perfection to the Nine Tribulations Scattered Immortal Realm in one go!

But this possibility is still in the realm of speculation.

No one has ever succeeded.

The sheer depth of knowledge required is terrifying to contemplate. Wang Yu's goal was to overcome numerous tribulations in one go.

Even if we don't say we've survived all nine tribulations, it shouldn't be too difficult for us to at least reach the third or fifth tribulation.

As time goes by.

Five years in the outer universe sea passed in the blink of an eye.

en route.

Wang Yu passed through many star fields and immortal realms, some newly formed and others existing since ancient times. Apart from the strange beasts of the void, he encountered almost no living beings along the way.

He also failed to encounter any random cosmic wonders, which left him somewhat disappointed.

September 28th, Year 293 of the Travel Chronicle.

Using the Immortal Palace Token to cross the barriers of the vast Immortal Realm, Wang Yu officially returned to the Cangmang.

Once inside human territory, Wang Yu acted without restraint.

They traverse space without restraint.

In less than half a day.

They arrived at the True Spirit Realm without stopping or resting. They casually sent a message to the Blood Realm, sending the Yellow Spring Heavenly Demon Banner back through the "Altar of All Heavens" in the cave to continue presiding over the killing trial.

…………

Tai Xuan Heaven, Heavenly Dao Platform!
After many years of absence, Master Tai Xuan, the True Immortal of Karma, still sat cross-legged on the futon, facing the steps of the Heavenly Dao Platform, as still as a stone.

Of the three prayer cushions placed in front of him, the first one was empty, while in the second one, the first human emperor was winking at him, clearly having been waiting there for quite some time.

Wang Yu hurried over and sat on the third futon.

"Greetings, Master, Second Senior Brother."

as predicted.

Each time, the master's response required a period of waiting, and it was unclear where his mind was absorbed, as he didn't even take any precautions against his physical body.

But... is this really the real body?

The second senior brother was more comfortable with it than him, and immediately asked, "Junior brother, do you see any difference in your elder brother?"

Wang Yu: "???"

He was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized the truth.

He quickly offered his congratulations.

"Congratulations on breaking through to the Tribulation Transcending stage, Second Senior Brother. No wonder you didn't go to the Qilin Immortal Mansion; you were looking for an opportunity to break through."

"Hahaha, that's exactly right."

The first Human Emperor smiled broadly and gestured with his thick biceps: "Only after entering the Tribulation stage do we realize how difficult and tortuous the path to immortality is. For geniuses like you and me, only by entering the Tribulation stage can we begin a slow improvement phase. This stage is truly too difficult."

Wang Yu's heart stirred: "Senior brother, could you explain in more detail?"

"Hmm..." After a moment of contemplation, the second senior brother slowly nodded.

"It wouldn't hurt to tell you about it, but you can only take it as a reference. Don't try to apply my experience directly to yourself. Everyone's difficulty in overcoming tribulations is different."

"Junior brother is aware of this, please tell me, senior brother."

It was as if their interest had been piqued.

The second senior brother organized his thoughts before speaking.

“Junior brother should know that before the rise of the human race, they regarded the Celestial Race as a superior race and worshipped them for a long time.”

"Yes."

Seeing Wang Yu nod, he continued.

"The first of the Nine Tribulations is the [Five Signs of Decay of the Celestials], which is the starting point of the path to immortality. Beings like the Celestials are born with this calamity, which was called [Heavenly Jealousy] in ancient times and is a common ailment of many special races."

"After a Celestial Clan cultivator reaches the Great Ascension Perfection, because they are born to undergo this tribulation, they can almost all smoothly step into the First Tribulation Loose Immortal Realm, which is the foundation of their clan's strength."

As for those who don't live to reach that level, there's no need to say more.

It is precisely because its appearance is completely identical to that of humans.

It is only because they possess such extraordinary talents that they are regarded as the superior race by humans, who believe that they share the same bloodline, only that humans have degenerated.

In this day and age, it has been proven that the two sides are actually two different races, and ultimately they are different.

"The second of the Nine Tribulations is called the [Wind, Fire and Thunder Calamity]. Heavenly winds, yin fires, and heavenly thunders descend, which is the second step for cultivators to achieve immortality."

"The third of the nine tribulations is called the 'Nine Difficulties that Deceive the Mind.' One must look back on the path of cultivation and count the nine difficulties: the pressure of food and clothing, the obstruction of elders, the entanglement of love and affection, the entanglement of fame and fortune, the occurrence of disasters, the constraints of blind teachers, the differences in opinions, the slackening of will, and the wasting of time!"

"It tests one's Dao heart. If there is even the slightest regret or remorse, the path to immortality will be cut off, and a demon will be born on the spot, forcibly disintegrating the body by the Heavenly Dao."

Just as Wang Yu was listening intently, his second senior brother was talking eloquently.

The master had opened his eyes at some point.

His indifferent voice suddenly rang out.

"Don't mislead others if you only have a superficial understanding. Are you the master or am I the master?"

Wang Yu: "!!!"

Second Senior Brother: "!!!"

The two were startled, completely unaware that their master had opened his eyes.

"Master."

"Master." (End of Chapter)
