Chapter 806: Human Dao Imperial Qi

Fang Yuanliang’s face was filled with bewilderment.

What on earth was all this?

Had there ever been such four sages in the Longevity Continent? Why had he never heard of them?

"Is this power of the four sages you speak of really that formidable?" Fang Yuanliang asked with some skepticism.

"It's guaranteed. Close your eyes."

Ye Lin rubbed his hands together in anticipation.

Fang Yuanliang cast a wary glance at Ye Lin, took half a step back, and closed his eyes.

Swish.

A head flew high into the air; Fang Yuanliang felt a sense of weightlessness, as if something had taken flight.

It was only after a good while that he realized it was his own head that had flown off.

A golden banner appeared, drawing Fang Yuanliang’s soul body into it.

Ye Lin’s face was filled with joy.

It was back.

It was all back.

The Human Emperor Banner was now completely restored, functioning exactly as it had before.

Moreover, due to the presence of the nine strands of Human Dao Imperial Qi, the monstrous resentment originally on the Human Emperor Banner had been thoroughly suppressed; the current banner showed no signs of evil and was entirely a righteous magical artifact.

Even if he took it out and used it in front of others, it would not arouse suspicion.

Of course, that was on the condition that he didn't release the resentful spirits inside.

The ten-day heavenly tribulation had reduced the number of resentful spirits within the Human Emperor Banner by nearly half, but the remaining number of soul bodies still reached the hundreds of millions.

After confirming that there were no issues with the Human Emperor Banner, Ye Lin did not linger there and turned to disappear.

He still possessed the Demon Venerable’s remains, so hunting other cultivators now seemed to have a very low cost-benefit ratio for him.

Ye Lin was not bloodthirsty; in a sense, he was an absolute egoist who only did what was profitable.

His previous frenzied slaughter of others was simply because killing allowed him to improve his strength more quickly.

Ye Lin returned directly to the Yihong Zoo. He had been gone for so long without a word, and Kuai Yan must be worried.

When Ye Lin returned to the Yihong Zoo, although the zoo appeared unchanged on the surface, he keenly sensed that something was wrong.

Because he could not feel Bai San’s aura!

Bai San had already signed a spirit beast contract with him, and he had ordered Bai San to guard this place; without his command, it was absolutely impossible for Bai San to leave.

Yet Bai San was not at the Yihong Zoo now, which left only one possibility.

Bai San had encountered an irresistible force and was forced to leave.

Ye Lin narrowed his eyes, activated the Great Void Art, and quietly snuck into the Yihong Zoo.

The Yihong Zoo was still operating normally, but the fox demons looked lifeless, devoid of their usual cheerfulness.

Ye Lin’s brows furrowed instantly; if he wasn't mistaken, these fox demons had likely all been enslaved.

He did not see Liu Ruyan, Kuai Yan, or the little fatty Zhen Youqian in the Yihong Zoo; instead, he saw a well-dressed man.

This man was wearing the attire of a disciple of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven Gate, and his aura was extremely formidable.

Clearly, this disciple had already stepped into the fourth phase of the Seven Phases of Spirit, the Spirit Vortex Realm!

With a Spirit Vortex of immortal power formed within the body, immortal power was inexhaustible, and the speed of refining Immortal Source Stones would also be greatly increased.

Several beautiful women, transformed from fox demons, were serving this man from every angle.

No emotion could be seen on Ye Lin’s face; he had already roughly guessed what had happened.

"Where are the others from the Yihong Zoo?" Ye Lin asked directly.

"Who's there?!"

The disciple was so startled he jumped up, as he hadn't detected how Ye Lin had appeared at all.

One had to know that he, Li Mingyi, was a standout within the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven Gate, and his cultivation had long reached the early stage of the Spirit Vortex Realm; how strong must the opponent be to approach him without a sound?

And when he saw the appearance of the person who had arrived, Li Mingyi’s expression changed even more.

"Ye Lin!"

"So it was you, you coward."

Seeing that the person was Ye Lin, and that Ye Lin’s realm was only at the Great Perfection of the Cave Profound Realm, Li Mingyi relaxed instantly, a mocking smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.

"What, hid for over a decade, and finally couldn't hide anymore?"

"Answer my question, where are the people from the Yihong Zoo?" Ye Lin repeated the question.

"Them? They are naturally suffering and enduring hardships in your place, you coward."

Li Mingyi sneered, and a beast-pet bag appeared in his hand.

"You appeared just in time; after taking you down, I won't have to guard this dump anymore."

Li Mingyi threw out the beast-pet bag, and a fierce beast resembling a lion charged out, covered in thick scales, its eyes scarlet, exuding a terrifying baleful aura.

This was Li Mingyi’s natal spirit beast, the Scaled Red-Eye!

"Since you refuse to speak, I can only use other methods to pry your mouth open," Ye Lin said.

"Just you, a Great Perfection of the Cave Profound Realm? You want to cross three realms to fight me? How laughable."

Li Mingyi didn't take Ye Lin’s words seriously at all.

"The Spirit Vortex Realm, is it very high?"

Ye Lin took out the Human Emperor Banner; the banner fluttered without wind, emitting a dazzling, brilliant golden color.

As Ye Lin channeled it, the nine strands of Human Dao Imperial Qi on the banner transformed into five-clawed golden dragons and surged into Ye Lin’s body.

With every five-clawed golden dragon that merged into his body, Ye Lin’s aura climbed by one level.

Early stage of the Soaring Realm.

Mid stage of the Soaring Realm.

Late stage of the Soaring Realm.

Great Perfection of the Soaring Realm.

Early stage of the Starry Net Realm.

Mid stage of the Starry Net Realm.

Late stage of the Starry Net Realm.

Great Perfection of the Starry Net Realm.

Early stage of the Spirit Vortex Realm!

The nine strands of Human Dao Imperial Qi directly boosted Ye Lin’s cultivation by nine realms, instantly reaching the early stage of the Spirit Vortex Realm.

This was the new ability unlocked after the Human Emperor Banner was completely unlocked to its full form.

"Instantly raised by nine realms? How is this possible? Evil art! This is an evil art!"

Seeing Ye Lin instantly raise his realm to the same level as his own, Li Mingyi turned pale with fright.

There were indeed many techniques and divine abilities on the Longevity Continent that could temporarily boost a cultivator’s cultivation, but these techniques and divine abilities would, without exception, cause great harm to the cultivator’s body.

Even so, they could generally only temporarily boost one or two realms; being able to boost more than three realms could be called a great divine ability.

Raising nine realms in one breath was unheard of; even forbidden arts that burned life force could not bring about such a massive increase.

It was no wonder Li Mingyi was scared stiff.

Ye Lin stood tall, holding the Human Emperor Banner, his face as calm as an immortal’s, devoid of any expression; that holy yet domineering aura made those facing him want to kneel and prostrate.

Between the opening and closing of his black pupils, it was as if the sun, moon, and stars were flowing.

Even the Scaled Red-Eye, which had been brimming with baleful aura, was so frightened that its fur stood on end and it crouched to the ground.

If it weren't for its master, Li Mingyi, being nearby, this Scaled Red-Eye would likely have turned and fled in terror.

Fierce beasts were far more sensitive to danger than humans.

Ye Lin ignored the Scaled Red-Eye, as if this fierce beast capable of battling in the Spirit Vortex Realm didn't exist at all; his gaze remained locked on Li Mingyi.

"I will ask one last time, where are the people from the Yihong Zoo?"
