Witch, please have some self-respect!

Within half a month, Shen Yun returned to the Holy City once more.

The Divine Light Platform has been completed.

From the Golden Rock Mountains to the Holy City, it's just a matter of moments.

As light flowed and space folded, the moment Shen Yun stepped onto the Divine Light Platform, the world turned upside down. When he opened his eyes again, he was already standing in the teleportation hall of the Holy City.

Safe, fast, and flawless.

Even if a demigod were to intervene personally, he would be unable to intercept the teleportation of the Divine Light Platform over such a short distance.

Shen Yun walked back to Qingyun Mountain along the familiar streets.

The cave remained tranquil, and the spiritual plants in the herb garden were thriving.

The Kowloon Treasure Land is rich in spiritual energy, and its daily output of spiritual substances is stable.

Su Wan'er was cultivating in the quiet room.

Her cultivation level has improved again, and she is not far from the Blood Sea Realm.

Upon seeing Shen Yun, she stopped cultivating and stood up to greet him.

"My husband."

Shen Yun helped her up, looked her over for a moment, and nodded.

"good."

Su Wan'er smiled slightly and said nothing more.

The cotton branches are also there.

The young maid was much more composed than before, her foundation in the Dao was solid, and her cultivation was gradually increasing.

She was busy in the herb garden, tending to the spiritual plants, watering and fertilizing them meticulously.

Upon seeing Shen Yun, her eyes lit up, and she quickly walked over.

"master."

Shen Yun ruffled her hair without saying a word.

The cotton branch stood obediently, letting him rub it.

That night, Shen Yun had dinner with Su Wan'er and Mianzhi.

Shen Yun looked at the two women, feeling calm.

This is his home.

No matter how the outside world changes, this place will always be peaceful.

The next day, Shen Yun left the Holy City and returned to the Golden Rock Mountains.

The days passed by.

Practice in the early morning, enter the ruins in the afternoon, and deduce the seal method at night.

Occasionally, he would meet with Feng Luoyi, occasionally wait for Wu Rou, and occasionally return to the Holy City to see Su Wan'er and Mianzhi.

Calm and still, without any ripples.

Until five days before the second printing of the scriptures began.

Crimson Sky Domain, the highest peak.

Shen Yun sat cross-legged on the boulder, his body wreathed in crimson flames, and eight-colored light bands swirled above the sea of ​​blood.

The Crimson Sky Seal Scripture was circulating within his body.

Great success.

The development of printed scriptures is a hundred times more difficult than printing Buddhist scriptures.

This is not a simple condensation of Dao traces, but a comprehension of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and a profound understanding of the true meaning of the Crimson Sky Burning Heaven.

It took Shen Yun half a month to deduce the Crimson Sky Seal Scripture from its initial stage to its final stage.

Within the ancestral aperture, the true meaning of Jianchun, a crimson rune on a branch slowly rotates, radiating intense light.

He closed his eyes and felt the power of the Crimson Sky Seal Scripture. Eight-colored light bands hovered above the sea of ​​blood, resonating with the Crimson Sky Seal Scripture.

Using the printed scriptures as a guide, carrying the power of six printed seals, the power that can be unleashed is beyond doubt.

Good things come in pairs, but suddenly a crisp cracking sound exploded in my mind.

The rhinoceros horn is broken.

The spirit rhinoceros horn given to him by the goddess Cangyan turned into countless fragments and scattered in his ancestral aperture.

A scene appears.

Tianfeng Domain.

The sky was grayish-white, and the wind howled.

The goddess Cangyan stood on a stone platform, her azure dress fluttering in the wind.

Before her was a bluish-white jade pendant, engraved with ancient wind patterns.

Tianfeng Xiaoyao Seal Technique.

In the scene, the goddess Cangyan slightly tilted her head, her gaze seemingly piercing through the void, landing on Shen Yun.

Her lips parted slightly, but no sound came out, yet Shen Yun read her lip movements.

"Come and get it."

The rhinoceros horn completely dissipated, and the scene shattered into countless points of light.

Shen Yun opened his eyes.

At the summit of Chixiao Peak, flames burned around him, and the heat distorted the air.

He did not set off immediately.

"Where is the Golden Lotus Celestial Maiden of the Heavenly Wind Domain right now?"

Shen Yun took out an identity token to probe the Holy Sect's information channels.

wait.

A moment later, the message came back.

The Golden Lotus Celestial Maiden is no longer in the ruins of the demigods.

She left a few days ago to return to the main world to handle clan affairs, and no one knows when she will return.

Shen Yun put down the jade slip, his eyes flashing.

With the Golden Lotus Celestial Maiden gone, the Heavenly Wind Domain is without a master.

The Goddess Cangyan helped him obtain the seal of power and is currently guarding that spot.

He left the ruins again and used the Xuanhuang Earth Vein Instrument to investigate the celestial fluctuations of the Jinyan Mountain Range.

It was confirmed that the Golden Lotus Celestial Maiden was outside.

Shen Yun returned to the demigod's ruins, the Deceptive Mask covering his face.

The light shifted, the expression changed, and the aura became concealed.

The Flame Demon King has reappeared.

A beam of light shot into the sky, and Shen Yun left the Crimson Sky Domain.

He concealed his tracks as he went, trying his best to avoid being detected by other cultivators.

The eight domains of the sky swirled overhead, passing by one domain after another.

Shackles were added one after another to his body.

The moment Shen Yun stepped into the Tianfeng Domain, four shackles were placed upon him.

His strength was suppressed to only 20%, his blood circulation was slow, the light of the six heavenly palaces dimmed, and the eight-colored light band dimmed to a few points.

But Shen Yun wasn't afraid much.

He steadied himself and flew deeper into the air.

In a corner of the Heavenly Wind Domain, the Goddess Cangyan stood with her hands behind her back, her azure dress fluttering in the wind.

She had no protective aura around her, and despite the howling wind tearing at her clothes and making a rustling sound, she remained completely still.

The stone platform beneath my feet is engraved with ancient wind patterns, which share the same origin as the Heavenly Wind Carefree Seal Jade Pendant in front of me.

Shen Yun landed on the stone platform and clasped his hands in a salute.

"Thank you, Goddess Cangyan."

The goddess Cangyan turned around, her azure pupils reflecting Shen Yun's figure.

She looked at it for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"Come."

One word is enough.

Shen Yun stepped forward and sat cross-legged in the center of the stone platform.

The jade pendant is bluish-white, about the size of a head, and its surface is engraved with dense wind patterns.

Every line is flowing, like a living thing, swirling, intertwining, and separating on the surface of the jade pendant.

Shen Yun took the jade pendant, and the moment his fingertips touched it, a sudden and violent gust of wind arose.

Above the sea of ​​blood, eight-colored light bands spun wildly, and bluish-white light surged from the jade pendant, transforming into wind-attribute Dao traces that entered Shen Yun's body.

The Dao traces fell into the sea of ​​blood and condensed on the Heavenly Palace of the Heavenly Wind Free and Unfettered Seal.

The heavenly palace lit up layer by layer, from the first to the seventh, with ancient wind patterns and totems appearing on each layer.

Those are the patterns of carefree wandering, the marks of freedom.

Shen Yun closed his eyes and absorbed the nutrients with all his might.

The Goddess Cangyan stood to the side, her hands behind her back, guarding her.

The gale howled around her, but could not get any closer to Shen Yun.

An invisible barrier enveloped the stone platform, isolating it from all external interference.

The seal technique inherited from the jade pendant gradually merged into Shen Yun's sea of ​​blood.

The proficiency of the Heavenly Wind Free and Easy Seal Technique increases from the very beginning.

In less than 15 minutes, he gained a complete understanding of the seal technique, which propelled his seal practice forward.

【Heavenly Wind Carefree Seal Technique (Mastery 1523/10000)】

Shen Yun opened his eyes, a fleeting gray-white light flashing within them.

The jade pendant shattered in his palm, turning into countless specks of light that dissipated in the raging wind.

He stood up and clasped his hands in a fist salute again.

"Thank you, Goddess."

The Goddess Cangyan waved her hand, her gaze falling on Shen Yun. After a moment, she exclaimed in surprise.

"You have now completed the Eight Domains Seal Technique."

Shen Yun nodded: "This is the last one."

"You're a little late this time."

The goddess Cangyan frowned slightly, her gaze sweeping over her surroundings.

In the Heavenly Wind Domain, on the gray-white stone platform, the gale still howled.

But what she was looking at wasn't the wind, but the shadows beyond it.

One, two, three...

In the shadows, a dozen pairs of eyes were watching intently.

There were human rogue cultivators, demon spies, undercover agents from various races, and even spies from the Celestial Race.

They lurked in the wind, their presence barely perceptible, like a group of sharks that had caught the scent of blood, lurking in the distance, waiting for their chance.

The goddess withdrew her gaze, her tone indifferent.

"If there were more people, they would dare to make a move."

Shen Yun followed her gaze and felt a chill run down his spine.

More than two months have passed since the opening of the Demigod Ruins.

Two months is enough to change everything.

Of the initial group of cultivators who entered the ruins, the weaker ones have long been eliminated.

The quotas were plundered, the heritage was stolen, and the corpses became nourishment for the relics.

None of those who have survived to this day are kind-hearted.

Each of them has crawled out of mountains of knives and seas of blood, and many have grasped the true meaning.

Shen Yun silently made an estimate.

Those people in the shadows, even the weakest among them, possessed the cultivation of the Heavenly Palace Realm, and their true intent had already taken shape.

Several of the leaders had their true intentions solidified like a tangible substance, clearly indicating that they were nearing the completion of the Shaping Realm.

If they all rush in...

The Goddess Cangyan was bound by two shackles, leaving her with only 60% of her strength.

Shen Yun himself was under the influence of four shackles, which suppressed him by 80%.

The Goddess Cangyan could block ten for him, but not twenty.

Shen Yun clasped his hands in a fist salute, his tone sincere.

"I'm sorry, it was my oversight."

He was indeed judging others by his own petty standards.

After receiving the message from Lingxijiao, he did not set off immediately. Instead, he used the Holy Sect's communication channels to repeatedly confirm that there was no ambush in Tianfeng Domain.

It has been confirmed that the Golden Lotus Celestial Maiden is not at the ruins, and this message is not a trap.

It took a full hour and a half.

During these two hours, even though the strange phenomenon of the seal was concealed, the news leaked out, and more and more people gathered in the shadows.

The Goddess Cangyan stood alone on the stone platform, facing those menacing gazes, waiting for so long.

Shen Yun felt a little embarrassed.

The Goddess Cangyan did not reply, but her brows furrowed even more.

The gazes around them grew more numerous and increasingly undisguised.

Some people had already begun to talk in hushed tones, their fingers forming hand seals, their blood and qi surging.

The wind blades surrounding the stone platform were locked in place by divine senses and frozen in mid-air.

The atmosphere was tense.

The goddess Cangyan said no more, grabbed Shen Yun's wrist, and clasped her fingers tightly.

"Walk!"

His figure suddenly rose up, and azure light shot into the sky.

A fierce wind ripped through the air, tearing apart the wind blades around the stone platform and turning them into countless points of light.

Someone whispered from the shadows, "Chase!"

More than a dozen streaks of light followed closely behind, their sharp, piercing sound cutting through the air.

Without turning her head, the goddess Cangyan struck out with her palm.

The azure palm print magnified in the void, merging several hand seal techniques to form a gigantic palm hundreds of feet long, which slammed behind him.

boom!

The palm print exploded, and a violent shockwave swept in all directions.

The three streaks of light that were chasing in the lead were directly slapped away, spitting out blood, and falling headfirst like onions.

The others quickly slowed down and activated their protective spiritual energy to defend themselves.

"Although the Flame Demon King is suppressed by 80%, the Goddess Cangyan is not. Stop chasing!"

Taking advantage of the gap in this palm strike, the Goddess Cangyan had already led Shen Yun out of the sky of the Tianfeng Domain.

The greyish-white sky receded into the distance behind us, and the shackles were gradually removed.

Back in the Azure Wood Domain, the sky was emerald green and teeming with life.

On the earth, ancient trees reach for the sky, vines spread like pythons, and spiritual energy is so rich that it almost solidifies.

The goddess Cangyan landed in front of a stone palace and released Shen Yun's wrist.

The square in front of the palace was empty, with only a few ancient pine trees swaying in the wind.

She turned around and looked at Shen Yun calmly.

"It's safe here."

Shen Yun clasped his hands in a fist and apologized again: "I was in seclusion this time, which kept the goddess waiting."

Cang Yan waved his hand, not continuing the topic.

The two entered the stone hall.

The hall was empty, with only a stone platform, a stone table, and two stone benches.

The goddess Cangyan sat down on the stone bench and tapped her fingers lightly on the table.

Shen Yun sat down opposite her.

After a moment of silence, Cangyan spoke.

"You've collected all eight domain seals. What are your plans next?"

Shen Yun pondered for a moment, then his gaze fell on Cang Yan.

"The goddess helped me seize the Heavenly Wind Seal Technique; I, Shen... Yan, will remember this favor."

He almost blurted out "Shen Yun," but quickly corrected himself.

The goddess Cangyan paid no attention and quietly watched him.

Shen Yun continued, "I will do my best to keep an eye out for the Great Sun Golden Crow Seal Technique for the Goddess, and I will notify you immediately once I discover it."

Cang Yan nodded: "Okay."

Her tone was calm, but her eyes softened.

"After collaborating several times, we've developed trust in each other."

From their first encounter in the Green Wood Domain to their later cross-domain alliance, and now with Cang Yan helping him seize the Heavenly Wind Seal Technique, their cooperative relationship has become increasingly solid.

The goddess Cangyan leaned back in her stone chair, gazing at the verdant sky outside the palace.

"The situation in the Eight Regions has changed drastically these days."

Shen Yun nodded: "Indeed."

When they first entered the ruins, very few cultivators comprehended the true meaning; they could be counted on one hand.

Currently, among the eight regions, cultivators who have mastered the true meaning account for 30%.

This is not because their talent has suddenly increased, but because the elimination process is too brutal.

The weak perish, the strong survive.

Those who survived all went through life-or-death trials, and each of them broke through their own limits in the battle.

True meaning is no longer the exclusive domain of prodigies.

"Moreover, quite a few foreign cultivators have smuggled themselves in; the current number is not all of them."

The Goddess of the Azure Face spoke with a hint of coldness.

Shen Yun's gaze sharpened.

"Smuggling?"

"Um."

Cang Yan sat up straight. "The Azure Fiend Secret Realm is about to be sublimated, and the remnants of a demigod have been born. The news has reached the main world."

Some prodigies from smaller factions, lacking the qualifications to enter the secret realm through normal channels, resorted to risky measures and smuggled themselves in via clandestine routes.

She paused.

"Among these people, there are no direct descendants of powerful forces; most are independent cultivators or cultivators from small clans, a mixed bag."

But none of those who successfully smuggled themselves across were weak.

Shen Yun remained silent.

He recalled the gazes he had secretly observed in the Tianfeng Domain.

Several of them possessed powerful auras, yet were completely unfamiliar to the audience.

They don't seem to be native cultivators of the Azure Fiend Secret Realm, nor do they seem to be demons, gods, or ghosts.

Those must be illegal immigrants.

Although the Holy Evolution Main Realm is vast and rich in resources, the competition is also more intense.

Cultivators from smaller and medium-sized forces find it difficult to rise in the main realm, so they might as well sneak into a secret realm and try their luck.

We won, and soared to new heights.

He lost, and his life ended far from home.

"Throughout the eight domains, a consensus has gradually formed regarding cross-domain prodigies."

The goddess with the pale face raised her finger.

"The overlord of this domain and the one bound by shackles are invincible."

This is the first one.

Within their own territory, the hegemon possesses an absolute advantage.

Those who cross realms with only one shackle are not severely suppressed in strength, yet they are still terrifying.

"Those who wear two shackles are not to be trifled with."

With a 40% advantage in strength, it's difficult for them to pose a threat to the dominant power in the region.

Even so, they are not to be trifled with.

"Those who wear three shackles need not be wary."

With 60% suppression, his strength is greatly reduced, making him a worthy opponent even for the top-tier geniuses in the region.

Even if you lose, you can still run away.

"Those who bear four shackles need not fear."

Suppressing 80% of it has almost rendered it useless.

Even ordinary geniuses within the domain have a chance to defeat him.
