Chapter 3671: Re-entering the Black Hole

Liu Xingyang and Pang Hongyu were both stunned; they hadn't expected that they not only killed a hundred demon humans, but also slew the Divine Son.

Such a monumental act was beyond anything they could even imagine, yet Ye Liuyun did it outright—without the slightest hesitation, and not a moment's pause when he struck.

It inevitably made them think of their own fate; Ye Liuyun would not let them live to spread the news of the Divine Son's killing.

But they also felt that Ye Liuyun's strength was indeed overwhelming. Not only was he strong, but everyone around him was powerful as well, and cross‑level challenges were effortless.

Moreover, their talismans and formations were formidable, at least as long as they stayed with him they couldn't die for the time being.

"The rune formations of Qianling Valley are actually this powerful?" the two had thought those rune formations all came from Qianling Valley.

"Everyone should quickly regain their strength; we'll enter the underground Cave immediately."

Ye Liuyun instantly used Transmission Voice to have everyone return to the Space World to accelerate cultivation.

No one around him questioned his words; they immediately seized the time to cultivate, employing every usable resource.

Gu Changhong, Qian Huan and others with low consumption were left outside, escorting the Mercenaries as a guard and setting up a Defense Array.

He also assigned Gu Changhong a task: to inscribe talismans on the Spirit Stone to amplify their power.

From the recent battle, he felt the talismans he inscribed were still somewhat weak, barely effective against a Third Stage of Dong Tian strongman.

Liu Xingyang and Pang Hongyu turned a ghastly pale, thinking Ye Liuyun was incredibly daring. The gruesome death of that Black Python was still vivid, yet he still dared to go down.

Both instantly felt their lives were in jeopardy. Yet Ye Liuyun completely ignored their concerns, merely having them guard outside with Gu Changhong and the others.

Ye Liuyun chose the golden Crystal Stone for body refining and the purple Crystal Stone to boost the Special Eye Pupil's power, giving the rest to others for now.

Only a few green Crystal Stones remained, and no one absorbed them. The people around Ye Liuyun freely used Life Spring Water, lacking no vitality.

Ye Liuyun originally intended to keep those crystals to sell, but his War God Armor claimed them, and it even had to help absorb them.

The result, however, astonished Ye Liuyun. After he fed the life energy from those green crystals into the War God Armor, its grade instantly rose by one, reaching the Seventh Tier of Dong Tian.

He called Sun Que to ask the reason.

"Probably weapons infused with Soul can absorb this energy to raise their grade," Sun Que guessed.

Ye Liuyun immediately infused this energy into the Demon Slaying Sword and Tian Shi as well; indeed, those two also absorbed it to raise their grade, though they haven't broken through yet.

Moreover, their absorption isn't limitless; once a certain threshold is reached, they can no longer absorb.

"There's also this effect!" Ye Liuyun hadn't expected such a discovery.

Immediately, he tossed the remaining bit of green energy to the four captured demon humans; the most severely wounded one absorbed it directly, using it to heal its injuries.

Ye Liuyun sighed inwardly, thinking those demon humans were such a waste of resources.

But he didn't investigate further, instead immediately began restoring his Divine Core. This time he directly used the energy from a golden egg, raising his realm to the mid‑stage of the Sixth Layer.

His recent battles have been numerous, solidifying his foundation. Moreover, future fights will require him to contribute more, so a quick advancement can share the burden with others.

After breaking through the realm, he simultaneously refined his body with golden Crystal Stones, boosted his eye pupil power with purple Crystal Stones, and absorbed earth‑yellow Crystal Stones to replenish his incomplete Divine Core.

However, his Core Pill was too large, consuming more, so he was the last to finish the restoration. Yet after cultivation, both his Physical Body and eye pupil abilities improved considerably.

The Clone Puppet and other Kuailei recovered much faster; by directly replenishing energy they could fight continuously, and their cultivation focused on the Soul.

However, their realm advancement relied entirely on Physical Body improvement. Even if the Soul grew stronger, without Physical Body progress their realm could not rise.

The Clone Puppet also refined that Soul Defense Treasure. The treasure can block most Soul attacks and illusion techniques, making the Clone's Soul safer.

Hei Hu and Yao Ji took more time to study the cipher.

Looking at other Monster Beasts, Zhu Que had already absorbed a massive amount of Soul, breaking through to the Ninth Realm. Yet aside from flame, his other powers remained at the Eighth Realm's combat level.

Ye Liuyun then instructed him to absorb more golden and earth‑yellow Crystal Stones to refine the body and condense the Divine Core. The others' realms have not yet broken through.

Ye Liuyun also didn't let them leave, instead keeping them ready for combat at any moment.

He himself exited the Space World, pulling the people left outside into his own Space World. This time he prepared to personally descend into the Cave to investigate.

He believed his Buddha Light Power could shield him from that malevolent aura, so even in danger he wouldn't suffer as the Black Python did. Thus everyone was drawn into the Space World, and he rushed to the nearest Cave himself.

Meanwhile, the death of the Seventh Divine Son alarmed the central dynasty. God King Wang Tianqi naturally knew Ye Liuyun was behind it, yet he did not launch a major campaign, only ordering the local overseer to investigate.

Wang Tianqi had many heirs; those who could not help him maintain the overall situation, and who only cared about internal squabbles of the Divine Sons, were too lazy to bother.

However, the Martial Cultivator in charge of the outpost dared not be lax, for the Divine Son died under his watch; though it was likely slain by a monster, he still had to investigate.

He immediately dispatched thirty squads of Martial Cultivators from the outpost, each with over ten members, to scour the various planets.

Unfortunately, by then the Seventh Prince's skeletal remains had already been corroded by internal toxins into a pool of black water, then dried and scattered, leaving no trace to find.

Even if they found any traces, they could only assume it was the work of Demon Beasts, since after Ye Liuyun left, the Demon Beasts arrived to feed and had already ravaged the site.

When they reached the planet where Ye Liuyun was, he had already delved deep into the underground Cave, yielding them nothing.

However, Li Yuan was rather unlucky; while encountering a patrol unit, he was battling a Demon Beast and was discovered by them.

They saw Li Yuan as an unfamiliar face, immediately interrogated him and clashed with his companions. Though Li Yuan eventually killed them all, someone used a Transmission Talisman to send back information.

The situation here is rather special; the Transmission Talisman is custom-made, usable only here, and only Martial Cultivators stationed here are equipped with it.

The Seventh Divine Son also didn't intend to stay here long, so he wasn't equipped with the Transmission Talisman; otherwise he would have sent the news back. Recent encoding issues are severe, giving us more motivation, faster updates; please click to exit reading mode. Thank you.
