Chapter 352

At this moment, the True Lords and Yuan Lords who had previously each been 'busy' and dispersed have reappeared.

Soundlessly and silently, they floated above the endless abyss, staring blankly at the pitch-black chasm whose bottom could not be seen.

"Surely they didn't really go and get themselves killed, did they?"

No one knew who had spoken; a faint question drifted out.

"..."

No one answered, but this deathly silence made it clear that everyone's mood was terrible.

To them, Di Jin was not only the Young Lord, but also a little troublemaker they had watched grow up, and they actually liked him quite a bit.

He had been good‑looking since childhood; even an iron‑hearted person couldn't help liking him.

When he fell, it was actually quite painful for them.

No one expected he could be reborn; besides surprise, they also felt joy.

But we hadn't even formally met him yet, and now he's gone?

He is gone.

Di Jin had already been swallowed whole by the candle monster.

It was satisfied, coiled again at the bottom of the abyss, and closed its huge, bright blood‑red eyes.

"..."

Darkness, deathly silence.

They returned once more to the endless abyss.

It was as if Di Jin had never come down at all.

True Lord Yuanwu seemed a little lost and dispirited.

The other True Lords and Yuan Lords also lingered, not dispersing for a long time.

Meanwhile, the Taiqing Emperor had not appeared at all from beginning to end.

The Three Pure Heavens.

The one‑day limit has arrived.

Initially, the chiefs of the five great heavenly god clans, worried about the sky splitting, saw the heavenly changes disperse, and then remembered they still owed an explanation to the Ancestor of Heavenly Purity.

"How do we say it, really fish her out?" Jiqi Tianjun asked first.

Hetian Doumu sneered, "What are we fishing for! She's definitely in the Huaxu burial grounds; otherwise my clan wouldn't have been left with only Qiuxuan."

That day, Hetian Doumu's mood was utterly awful. Not only did she have to worry about the heavens under the He clan's jurisdiction, but she also kept receiving reports of junior clan members dying horribly.

"She can't possibly be in there." Jiqi Tianjun insisted.

"That's not the problem; we should first—" Ji Yun Doumu had just begun to say, but then she thought it better to first find the person, and she fell silent.

In Yi Yuan Tianjun's hand, a wisp of spiritual mist had already been received, exuding the aura of the Ancestor of Heavenly Purity; surely it had come to urge them.

Everyone thought so, but it wasn't——

When Yi Yuan Tianjun activated the spiritual mist, the phantom of the Ancestor of Heavenly Purity dispersed.

"Since you all are hesitating and not moving, there's no need to act. No trouble for you over on A Li's side."

When the words fell, the mist scattered and the image of the Ancestor of Heavenly Purity vanished, yet the five clan chiefs present did not feel relieved.

They had all witnessed the Ancestor of Heavenly Purity's madness in the tomb, and they cared immensely for Shen Qingli!

Suddenly it became irrelevant?

How could that be?

This is very wrong.

"He probably wouldn't have already sent a message to the Young Lord of Heaven, would he?"

Yi Yuan Tianjun felt that he still understood the Ancestor of Heavenly Purity better than most.

Hetian Doumu, however, said, "Impossible—how could he send a message? That's the Taiqing Hall; it's not a place where just any news can easily get in."

That is……

The other clan chiefs all nodded in agreement.

"Did he go himself?"

Ji Yun Doumu questioned.

This is obviously the most likely thing to have happened.

But, "Can he enter the Chaos Realm to fish someone out?"

The Chaos Realm—even they, unless they join forces, dare not lightly set foot in it.

Has the Ancestor of Heavenly Purity become strong enough to dare go in alone? No, judging from previous encounters, he still lacks such strength.

"He's risking his life for Shen Qingli," Yi Yuan Tianjun could only say, meaning he was staking his old life to save that little girl.

"That's fine; without him, there's no one to oppose us." Hetian Doumu didn't think it bad—clearly the Ancestor of Heavenly Purity was Shen Qingli's greatest support; without him, her plan could proceed smoothly.

As for Di Jin, she actually no longer cared much.

Everyone has been taken to the Taiqing Hall; don't even think about getting out again.

But her expectations, and what the five of them had taken as fact, are clearly off.

Normally speaking, the Ancestor of Heavenly Purity indeed cannot transmit a message to Di Jin.

But Di Jin is not normal!

The Ancestor of Heavenly Purity is also not normal.

So——

Inside the candle monster's belly.

"Hum."

Di Jin opened his eyes.

His eyes were calm and dark, initially still normal.

But soon, the black part of the pupils turned white.

A lustrous white light gradually seeped out from deep within Di Jin's soul.

His hair, at this moment, seemed to have been washed with white dye, turning white inch by inch, snow-white.

Eyebrows, eyelashes, his whole body, almost nowhere was not white...

In his mind, there was only one sentence, the words spoken by the Ancestor Tianqing using the power of the universe, shaking him: "A Li has been sent into the Chaos Realm by the Five Clan Chiefs."

One sentence.

It seemed to have unlocked some power deep within Di Jin's soul.

When the white radiance completely enveloped his body...

"!"

The candle monster suddenly opened its huge eyes!

"!"

Yuanwu True Lord and the others were all startled.

The next moment—

"Roar!"

The candle monster burst out a mournful howl.

"Hiss!"

The candle monster vomited at high speed!

Obviously realizing that what it had just swallowed was hard to digest, it wanted to spit it out.

But Di Jin was not something it could swallow just because it wanted to, nor spit out just because it wanted to.

"Bang!"

A strand of white silk split open the candle monster's abdomen, cracking the abyss open.

The candle monster emitted a regretful scream! It had never felt such pain before!

Blood spurted, washing over the abyss floor, seeping into the deepest parts! It also splashed onto the highest point.

"Hiss."

Yuanwu True Lord did not dodge, and encountered this wave of blood spray.

His face, hot and stinging...

Yuanwu True Lord wiped it once, and the bloody, fishy smell permeated his breath.

"Ah this,"

All the True Lords and Primordial Lords were dumbfounded.

This aura, this scream, is the candle monster being counter-killed?

"Our young lord, has he become this strong?"

Yuanwu True Lord wiped the blood from his face clean, his tone still very bewildered.

No way, the young lord he received, although looking like he has great progress, is still not enough to fill the candle monster's teeth gap!

But this blood, indeed is the candle monster's blood! Being able to spray from the abyss, it must have been severely wounded to be able to spray so much blood.

"It's over, the emperor is done for."

I don't know who spoke again.

This seems to be someone who knows the inside story best!

"Di Hao, get out here and receive death!"

Di Jin's voice, indeed at this moment, shouted arrogantly.

The next moment, only see the white radiance piercing through the abyss!

"Roar——"

The candle monster's sound was deafening.

The huge, ugly candle monster shot up into the sky.

Together with that white radiance, it tore apart the seal on the abyss.

Taiqing Dian, trembled!

The Three Pure Heavens, overturned clouds and rain.

Above the He clan, those fissures truly reappeared.

Even He Tian Dou Mu faintly sensed the aura of power from Di Jin from that day.

Di Jin, emerged from the abyss.

Head full of white hair, body clad in blood-stained clothes.

Under his feet, was the candle monster in a worse state than him.

One person and one beast, covered in wounds.

Yet the True Lords and Primordial Lords scattered around them all felt an unparalleled pressure.

"Young lord,"

Yuanwu True Lord was simply unbelievable!

This aura, it really seems to be their young lord!

But obviously there has been an earth-shattering change...

However, Di Jin's attention was not on them, but in the void.

Emperor Hao! Still not coming out to die!
