C1919 He Retreated Unscathed

Majestic shadows surged one after another from within Yu Yuan, ascending skyward and coalescing into formidable Gods and Demons that could intimidate the heavens.

The Derivative Spell of Gods and Demons!

The formidable Demon Gods from the Starry Sky and Tenth Level experts from various races whom Yu Yuan had previously vanquished appeared as if summoned from the Time River.

These Gods and Demons, exuding an aura of ancient and eternal power capable of world destruction, unleashed the mystical techniques and abilities they had mastered in life.

A colossal silver-white ape, its sharp fangs bared in a menacing grin, swung its massive arms—like pillars capable of suppressing a myriad of starry rivers—shattering a dark golden skeleton that resembled a giant blade.

As if embodying a Great Demon God with three heads and six arms, it opened its mouth to release Ice Flame, Rock Earth Flame, and a soul-corroding poison, piercing through the bones of three Evil Gods.

A slender member of the Banshee Clan, her black hair cascading around her waist, bared her chest and emitted a demonic wail akin to a tsunami.

Her waterfall-like hair transformed into strands of soul-destroying lightning, reducing the oncoming skeletons to a shower of bone dust.

The Banshee's cry miraculously twisted Matina's disordered soul back to clarity in an instant.

The Banshee Clan member, who had ascended to a Ghost God only after death, gazed at the Banshee formed by Yu Yuan's Derivative Spell of Gods and Demons. After a moment of shock, she exclaimed, "Our clan's revered Guna La, it turns out..."

Guna La, the renowned leader of the Banshee Clan, was not only adept in numerous soul spells but also versed in the powers of darkness.

Witnessing the clan's legendary figure revived by Yu Yuan and fighting valiantly on his behalf, Matina realized that Guna La had been slain by the Grand Yin.

Boom! Boom!

As the mighty Gods and Demons darted through the ethereal Skeleton Palace, they even punctured a hole in the origin-formed green-black canopy of the sky.

"Truth be told, as soon as I arrived, I felt confident I could confront a sky like this."

Yu Yuan's ghostly form shifted in an instant, transforming into the Soul Transformation Pool within the Fallen Moon Forbidden Area.

The Soul Transformation Pool, refined by Taishi, harbored all the intricate Soul Arts evidently capable of overcoming the green-black firmament.

The walls of the Soul Transformation Pool bore deep sword marks, including the unmistakable traces of the Optimus Nine Slashes sword spell.

As soon as the Soul Transformation Pool materialized, Yu Yuan felt as though he had been transported back to the Fallen Moon Forbidden Area, experiencing an illusion of a connection between the pool and the Heaven Sealing Soul Transformation Formation.

"Disperse!"

Yu Yuan's robust laughter echoed from within the Soul Transformation Pool.

The green-black canopy, crafted from Extreme Intelligence's very soul, indeed shifted away from the phantasmal Evil God Temple, causing the heavens to further rip asunder.

Whoosh!

Yu Yuan, now one with the pool, instantly shed the temple's binding power and emerged into the external world.

This was possible because within the green-black expanse, the most crucial array was the Heaven Sealing Soul Transformation Formation, a structure the Extreme Intelligence comprehended as he too was once a master of formations.

"One, two, seven!"

Re-emerging in the Origin Realm with his ghostly form, Yu Yuan's gaze fell upon not just one, but multiple Origin Realm Gates scattered across the sky.

The Origin Realm had not been entirely engulfed by the Sea of Hearts.

At seven strategic points within the Origin Realm, seven Origin Realm Gates stood, mirroring the seven layers of the abyss, facilitating the passage of abyssal beings and their souls.

It appeared that each layer of the abyss housed its own Origin Realm Gate, accessible to the mightiest of its denizens.

"Optimus Nine Slashes, Soul Destruction, Soul Severing, Star Shattering, Fallen Moon, Sun Cleaving, Evil Banishing, Demon Quelling, Devil Startling, Deity Exterminating!"

The grey channels within his ghostly form, each aligning with the path of the dead, suddenly solidified into Divine Swords aglow with a spectral white radiance.

He was a master of multitasking.

Nearly a hundred ghastly Divine Swords, imbued with the chill of the Demon Realm, took on an enigmatic aura.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Controlled by his will, the Divine Swords flashed through various spaces of the Origin Realm like bolts of lightning.

The ghostly gleam of the swords traced the patterns of the Optimus Nine Slashes sword spell, emphasizing techniques like Soul Destruction, Soul Severing, Evil Banishing, Devil Startling, and Deity Exterminating.

The sounds of the Grim River's flow, the laments of the Demon Realm's creatures, and the eerie noises of soul purification all merged into the symphony of sword cries.

Yu Yuan's ethereal shadow flickered into existence at various Origin Realm Gates, infusing the Divine Swords with power.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

One by one, the Origin Realm Gates were penetrated by the brilliant white sword light, shattering in this realm where only souls and consciousness could glide freely.

"It's a peculiar sensation."

A smile played at the corners of Yu Yuan's lips as he shattered the Origin Realm Gates, all the while delving into the mysteries of the Soul Arts tied to the source of the Yin Vein.

His understanding came with ease.

It seemed that during his first life as Tai Yin, he had already engaged with Youyu and the deep-seated source of the Yin Vein.

Wielding the meridians of his ghostly form as a blade, he executed the sword spells of the Optimus Sword, along with the mystical arts of the Grim River, showcasing his divine powers in this ephemeral world.

"Karma, reincarnation."

With a mere thought, he looked down at Extreme Intelligence below, his eyes lighting up with intrigue.

Extreme Intelligence, clutching the Soul Summoning Flag, wore a solemn expression, his mind etched with delicate lines that appeared to embody his life's journey.

Upon seeing these lines, Yu Yuan felt as though he could draw them out, and so he attempted to do just that.

His hand descended slowly, his palm gathering a ghostly white soul energy that swiftly took the shape of a miniature Reincarnation Furnace.

As the Reincarnation Furnace materialized in his palm, the slender lines threading through Extreme Intelligence's mind seemed to strain for release, as if seized by an unseen force.

A hint of astonishment finally crossed Extreme Intelligence's face.

In that moment, Extreme Intelligence realized that his birth in the vast expanse of the ocean, where the Yin Vein's source lay concealed, had left traces related to the Demon Area deep within his soul.

Any trace was visible to Yu Yuan, ripe for his exploitation.

The Yu Yuan before him undoubtedly surpassed Youyu, Matina, and Wagner. It was likely he had been empowered by the will of the Demon Area.

"First the Origin Blood, and now... the Origin Soul. Why?"

Extreme Intelligence couldn't help but wonder.

The Origin Blood that gave rise to the Titan Spinosaurus, and now the Origin Soul from the Demon Area—didn't they see that Yu Yuan, a human from their world, was different from their own kind?

But why, after the Origin Soul, did the two most enigmatic beings in that world choose to ally with Yu Yuan?

Didn't it concern them that Yu Yuan, leading the Abyss and ascending to Supreme of the Abyss, might completely conquer their world?

Whoosh!

The final Origin Realm Gate was steadfastly behind Ji Hui, shadowing his every move.

He proceeded with caution, seemingly fearful that Yu Yuan would set his sights on him and that he would be annihilated by the gleaming white Divine Swords.

The green-black essence of Origin was concealed within the Soul Summoning Flag in Ji Hui's grasp, transforming the ethereal flag into a tangible divine artifact within the Origin Realm.

"I require more of the wild, chaotic power from the Abyss."

Grasping the Soul Summoning Flag, now infused with Origin, Ji Hui's presence underwent a dramatic shift, mirroring Lin Daoke wielding a sword forged from his divine authority.

He abruptly looked up towards Yu Yuan in the heavens, his pupils morphing into twin maws of the Chaos Abyss.

Sensing danger, Yu Yuan shifted across the vast distance in an instant.

Where Ji Hui's gaze fell, the void violently imploded, as if an invincible force obliterated everything, both material and immaterial.

Yu Yuan attempted to extract those lines using the nascent power of Karma Reincarnation deep within his soul, only to find he could no longer do so.

"Sir, do you understand why this is called the Origin Realm?"

"It has nothing to do with Arthurs. Despite his claim as the Origin Realm God, the creation of the Origin Realm hardly involves him."

"It's because of the Evil God Temple, for such a treasure from the abyss can refine Origin."

"And only Origin can manifest physically in the Origin Realm. With Origin in my possession, I can draw power from within the Evil God Temple, so..."

"Ugh!"

Ji Hui's explanation was abruptly cut off.

The Soul Summoning Flag, once linked to the Origin, lost its connection to the Evil God Temple in the abyss.

The phantom temple, constructed of skeletons and countless runes, inexplicably crumbled once more, and the three ghostly gods, along with Andrea, snapped back to lucidity.

Conversely, the Evil Gods experienced a brief moment of bewildered disorientation, standing dazed and unsure of what to do next.

"Let's go."

Andrea called out to Yu Yuan in the void, her eyes blinking rapidly in a signal.

Yu Yuan paused, taking in Ji Hui's and the Evil Gods' expressions. After a brief hesitation, he simply replied, "Alright."

Yu Yuan, along with the three Ghost Gods and Andrea, moved swiftly as if carried by the wind. In no time, they emerged at the Origin Realm Gate, the portal leading to the Demon Realm, with no sign of pursuers in their wake.

They then proceeded to enter the gate with composed ease.
