I'm the emperor from the start, and you want me to keep the three-year agreement?

[Ding!]

[Congratulations, Host, for slaying a True God Avatar!]

[Acquired Divine Artifact: Blood Bodhi Demon Pearl!]

[After the Host uses this Divine Artifact, they can steal the power of the Blood Bodhi Palace. The Palace Lord of the Blood Bodhi Palace will be unable to detect this in the short term.]

[Of course, the Host can choose to bring this Divine Artifact back to the Azure Cloud Sect.]

[After bringing it back, this stolen power can be used to benefit the disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect and enhance their strength.]

[After the mission is completed, the Host's mount will be upgraded.]

[The upgraded mount will be an Emperor Realm Sacred Domain Lion.]

Listening to the system's prompts, Lin Ning pondered carefully.

Looking at the purple, rounded pearl in the system space, Lin Ning carefully examined the system's introduction.

It turned out that this item was originally called the Blood Bodhi Pearl, a divine artifact born with the Blood Bodhi Palace.

As long as the Blood Bodhi Palace exists, this pearl will continue to exist.

At the same time, the power of the Blood Bodhi Palace will also be transferred into this pearl and stored.

With the casual use by successive Palace Lords of the Blood Bodhi Palace, coupled with the greed of some Palace Lords,

under the influence of various desires and greed, this Blood Bodhi Pearl gradually became demonized, eventually becoming the Blood Bodhi Demon Pearl!

As everyone knows, the total amount of energy is constant; it will not disappear directly but will be transformed into other forms.

For example, the smile on a person's face will not disappear; it may be transferred to another person's face.

"The system says that this Blood Bodhi Demon Pearl was stolen by someone a long time ago, but now it suddenly appears in my hands."

Lin Ning smiled, "Wouldn't that mean I stole something from a thief?"

Eh, wait.

The thief stole something, and I took the Blood Bodhi Demon Pearl. Shouldn't this be considered returning the item to its rightful owner!

Yes, that's right! That's how it is!

"Should I use this Blood Bodhi Demon Pearl? To steal the power of the Blood Bodhi Palace?"

Lin Ning stroked his chin and pondered carefully, "Forget it. With my current combat power, I am invincible against anyone who comes."

"Stealing this power wouldn't make much of a difference to me. I might as well take it back to the Azure Cloud Sect and use this stolen power to benefit everyone. My master and senior sisters will also be enhanced."

Enhance my own cultivation?

Lin Ning shook his head. No need, brother.

It's better to take it back, complete the system's mission, and get a reward.

An Emperor Realm mount, a Sacred Domain Lion!

With strength, of course, I have to dress myself up in every way, including my mount.

Tell me, who can resist a cooler and more impressive mount?

"That demon monk's avatar was actually slain?"

Lin Ning's thinking time was very short; Yu Ling'er was still unable to come out of her shock.

She widened her eyes and stared at Lin Ning in disbelief.

"The demon monk's avatar is dead, and he himself will have difficulty returning in the short term. Doesn't that mean I can escape this Blood Bodhi Palace?"

Yu Ling'er was overjoyed.

Lin Ning jumped back to the ground.

As soon as he landed, a memory suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Hmm? I have some of the demon monk's memories?"

Carefully examining this memory, Lin Ning was shocked. This was actually part of Shi Wuya's memory.

Originally, there was a demoness in the Blood Bodhi Palace whose identity was actually the Palace Lord's daughter.

The relationship between the father and daughter was not good. When the Palace Lord was away, the demoness bewitched Shi Wuya and made a deal with him.

The demoness provided Shi Wuya with a path for the Palace Lord to become a god and also found fresh young organs for the demon monk to help him quickly comprehend the Great Dao and then become a god!

In return, Shi Wuya severed all the chains and helped the demoness escape the Blood Bodhi Palace.

To cover up this matter, Shi Wuya used demonic arts to capture the innocent Yu Ling'er and transform her into the appearance of the demoness.

At the same time, after becoming a god, Shi Wuya used the forbidden techniques of the Blood Bodhi Palace to kill all the common people and turn them into wronged souls.

He poured a massive amount of resentment into Yu Ling'er's body, helping her break through one realm after another and become an Immortal Emperor-level powerhouse.

Because the demoness and the Palace Lord had a deep conflict between father and daughter, and they had not spoken for many years, coupled with the Palace Lord's absence, Yu Ling'er was covered up for many years.

"Strange, what is this Shi Wuya afraid of?"

Lin Ning frowned. He detected that Shi Wuya was hiding in fear outside after leaving the Blood Bodhi Palace.

He was not hiding from the Palace Lord. The Palace Lord had not returned for many years and was likely trapped outside.

"What exactly can make a True God afraid?" Lin Ning shook his head. There were not many fragments of memory, and he could not directly deduce it.

Since he could not obtain more information, Lin Ning ignored it.

This was an internal matter of the Blood Bodhi Palace; what did it have to do with an outsider like him?

Returning to his master and senior sisters' side, Lin Ning said, "The demon monk's avatar has been slain. We can go back."

Shen Nian held Yu Ling'er's hand and asked, "Ling'er, you accidentally came here back then. Do you remember how to go back?"

"The few of us were directly dropped here after the space was inverted. We don't know how to go back."

Yu Ling'er nodded and smiled, "I know how to go back. Follow me."

It turned out that a long time ago, Yu Ling'er had discovered the junction between the Desolate Ancient Continent and the Blood Bodhi Palace.

However, that place would only open at a specific time.

At that time, Yu Ling'er repeatedly traveled between the two worlds and acquired many skills from the Blood Bodhi Palace.

A ray of light suddenly flashed in the gray sky, as if sunlight was shining down from the outside world.

Looking at the sunlight in the corner of the sky, Yu Ling'er's face changed drastically.

"Hurry! There's not much time left!"

"The exit of this world is about to close. If we can't leave before dawn, the next time will be in ten years!"

Yu Ling'er led the group away at a rapid pace.

Behind them, the dazzling sunlight continuously illuminated the road behind them.

Just as the sunlight was about to shine on the backs of the group, Yu Ling'er found the exit.

"Go!" Yu Ling'er said.

Lin Ning and his group once again entered that strange space inversion, and a feeling of dizziness enveloped their bodies.

When they woke up again.

"Hot, so hot!" Xiao Yuxuan fanned her hands continuously, feeling as if she had walked into a Flaming Mountain.

Even Shen Nian, with her Nether Body, felt like she was about to be scorched when facing the high temperature.

"No, this is not the Desolate Ancient Continent!" Shen Nian said in a deep voice.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for discovering another lost world!]

[The current world the Host is in belongs to the Yanhuang Clan.]

The system's voice rang in Lin Ning's ears.

[The Yanhuang Clan is an ancient clan born in volcanic lava. They are known as the embodiment of flames.]

While listening to the system's analysis, Lin Ning raised his head and looked at the world above.

Looking around again, Lin Ning discovered.

Here, whether it was the sky or the land, all directions were filled with lava!

Looking at this strange world, coupled with the brief dizziness just now, Lin Ning felt as if he had been kicked into the lava by a Tiger King.

"Who are you people!" Suddenly, a violent shout rang out.
