A few weeks had passed sihe grand weddiween Yun Wuji and Huan Caiyi.

  In the Yun Pace, which had been moved from the Illusory Demon Realm back to the Profound Sky ti, this time pced at the edge of the Snion of Extreme Ice.

  Yun Wuji sat cross-legged in his training room, In his hand, he held a purple crystal that shimmered faintly in the dim light.

  The energy from the crystal flowed steadily into Yun Wuji's profound veins as he absorbed it.

  Generally speaking, whether it urple Veined Heaven Crystals, Purple Veined Divine Crystals, or even Purple Profound Jade, all of them tained vast amounts of energy.

  However, most cultivators in the God Realm didn't use them to improve their cultivation.

  The reason was simple, the absorption speed ainfully slow, and the efficy varied greatly depending on a cultivator's ialent. For most, the effort wasn't worth the reward.

  So, in the God Realm, most people used these crystals to power formations or profound arks instead.

  However, Yun Wuji could absorb them effortlessly and at an incredible speed, thanks to the Law of Nothingness. The most basic ability of this w was the seamless absorption of all energies.

  After spending over a month prehending the Law of Nothingness, Yun Wuji had mastered using it to draw energy from even the profound Purple Veined Divine Crystals.

  Unfortunately, he cked the other two parts of the Law of Nothingness, which greatly hindered his speed in prehending it. Otherwise, he would have been able to absorb the energy from Profound Cores of Beasts, which would have been far more effit.

  After all, huntis was far easier than searg for divine crystal mines.

  Although Yun Wuji's talent was almost frightening, the Law of Nothingness was the highest w in the universe, it wasn't something he could fully prehend from just a fragment in the span of a month.

  He didn't have some cheat-like system that could randomly level up his abilities with a click.

  Cck!

  The profound energy tio flow into Yun Wuji's veins for a short while lohen, with a soft cck, the crystal in his hand cracked and shattered. As the fragments fell to the ground, they disied into fine dust, scattering silently across the floor.

  Boom!

  At that exaent, within the world of his profound veins, an explosioed. Profound energy surged violently, shattering the bottlehat had held him back. With this breakthrough, Yun Wuji advao the 11th level of the Sky Profound Realm.

  Yun Wuji opened his eyes, and an invisible shockwave erupted from his body, obliterating the grouh him.

  As he stood up, a faint smile pyed on his lips. It had only taken him a few days to break through, and he hadn't even put in much effort, most of his time had bee with his women.

  "Master, did you break through? But it's strange... You were already at the 10th level of the Sky Profound Realm, yet even after breaking through, I still sense you're still within the Sky Profound Realm," the Evil Infant materialized, floating around Yun Wuji with a bewildered expression. Her pitch-bck eyes darted over him, clearly puzzled. "I 't uand...what is going on?" she asked, her voice filled with curiosity and fusion.

  "That's something you don't o yourself with," Yun Wuji replied calmly, sidestepping the Evil Infant's question. Instead, he shifted the topic. "How is the recovery of the Sky Poison Pearl?" he asked.

  "Rep to Master," the Evil Infant replied with a respectful tohe Sky Poison Pearl is gradually rec its strength. However, due to the murky and thin aura of the current Primal Chaos, it will take a few more years before it unleash powerful poisons like the Heaven Wounding Thought Severing Poison."

  "Hmm, that's good to hear," Yun Wuji nodded, satisfied with her response. Reag out, he gently patted her tiny head and said with a faint smile, "I'll cook something for you as a reward then."

  "Yay~ I love you, Master!" the Evil Infant cheered, her tiny body boung with excitement. She leaped toward Yun Wuji, ing her small arms around his head, her petite body nearly c his face as she hugged him tightly.

  "Alright, I know you're happy, but don't cover my face like that," Yun Wuji said, gently pulling her off his face. Holding her in one hand, he started walking out of the room with a calm stride.

  "Hmm," the Evil Infant nodded obediently, her small head bobbing up and down. Floating beside him, she followed while humming a cheerful tune.

  Watg the Evil Infant act like an i child, Yun Wuji couldn't help but feel uain. Was this truly her nature, or was she merely putting on an act? He had been her closely for some time now, yet he didn't get any clue.

  Yun Wuji chose to make the Evil Infant the spirit of the Sky Poison Pearl because, even if the Evil Infao someday break free from his trol, the sequences of it trolling the Sky Poison Pearl would not differ much from not having it at all.

  Evil Infant breaking free = world destru.

  Evil Infant + Sky Poison Pearl = total extermination of all life forms + world destru.

  So, in esse didn't matter whether the Evil Infant took trol of the Sky Poison Pearl or not, because, in both sarios, the primal chaos would be doomed.

  Walking out of the room, Yun Wuji made his way to the kit, casually preparing something to eat. He ha to the Evil Infant, who immediately began humming and jumping around happily, her joy sting for quite a while.

  This was a deliberate a Yun Wuji's part, inteo make her more submissive and bio him. Although he wasn't certain if it would be effective, her current as seemed to suggest that she genuinely liked his food.

  After feeding the Evil Infant, Yun Wuji returo his courtyard. He walked past his room aered an undergrou chamber. Activating a formatioepped into a dark room. The momeered, a fsh of light illumihe area, revealing the hidden space.

  The room was ne, only a few hundred meters in width. The ground was covered with tless obscure inscriptions that stretched across the floor, up the walls, and all the way to the ceiling.

  Yun Wuji walked silently to the ter of the room, where a hole was carved into the ground. He pced the Sky Poison Pearl inside, and with a soft click, it fit perfectly into pce.

  Afterward, he calmly made his way to the north side of the room.

  There was a gray box, resembling a stone coffin, but without a lid.

  Ihe coffin y a headless body, its proportions strange and unnaturally rge, standing at 5 meters tall. The skin was a dull gray. It was the body of the Moon Sughter Devil Sn.

  "Let's begin," Yun Wuji muttered, iing his profound energy into the formation. Instantly, the inscriptions on the walls fred to life, glowing with a dark light. At the ter of the formation, the Sky Poison Pearl radiated a vivid green light shining in the midst of the bck light that filled the room.

  At the same time, the coffin began to vibrate, its surface lighting up with an intense bck glow.

  Sweat began to form on Yun Wuji's forehead as he trolled the formation.

  After destroying the Mighty Heavenly Swion, Yun Wuji took the Eternal Night Devil Sword and interrogated the devil's soul inside, which was the soul of the Moon Sughter Devil Sn's son.

  This formation was something Yun Wuji had created using the formations and teiques he obtained from the devil's soul as references.

  When Yun Wuji was first born into this world, he immediately began pnning how to bee stronger in the fastest ossible, using his knowledge of the future and the resources avaible to him.

  After years of careful pnning, he devised a strategy that, if followed, would allow him to reach the peak of this world and look down on all living beings in the shortest time possible.

  Unfortunately, at that time, he was too naive and fot that some events could not be ged.

  Shortly after he grew up, he experienced his first loss in this world, his master and adoptive father died.

  This threw off all his pns, and for a long time, he had to stay on the run. However, after gaining enough strength, he adjusted his pns and began implementing them.

  Taking the divine iances, helping the Illusory Demon Realm, and taking down the Four Sacred Grounds were all part of his rger pn. But his main goal, the ohat had been his true focus all along, was the Moon Sughter Devil .

  He not only wahe World-Defying Heaven Manual and the Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tributions, but Yun Wuji also had his sights set on the Moon Sughter Devil Sn.

  And no...it wasn't because he was gay.

  Specifically, not the Moon Sughter Devil Sn himself... but his body, his body is an invaluable treasure!

  He was the only true devil still alive in this era, aside from the 300 who had been exiled from the primal chaos.

  As long as the Moon Sughter Devil Sn absorbed enough dark profound energy, he would gradually recover his strength at an astonishing speed. There was even a ce for him to surpass the limits of the current primal chaos aurn to the True God Realm, though the likelihood of that happening was slim.

  When Yun Wuji killed him, his iion was to extract the Moon Sughter Devil Sn's power and use it for himself. And now, the question was, how to do it?

  Well, sihis guy was a devil, achieving this goal was much easier than if he had been a god. But why?

  The answer is the Devil in Orb!

  When the devils of the Primordial Devil Race are first gestating in their mother's womb, they begin as a Devil in Orb. From there, the radually forms the devil's body, soul, and the devil god's in energy. In other words, the Devil in Orb is the very source of a devil's life, soul, and power!

  If the Devil in Orb of a Devil God is destroyed, the Devil God take over another Devil God's Devil in Orb. Through a uhod, they assimite the new orb into their own profound veins, thereby regaining their power.

  Yun Wuji devised a pn based on the information he had. He wao refihis body and create a set of profound veins with the Devil in Orb at its core.

  In theory, whoever obtains these profound veins would not only i the remaining strength of the Moon Sughter Devil Sn but would also be able to restore his strength and potentially raise their realm back to the True God Realm.

  Naturally, the ces of reag the True God Realm in the current primal chaos are slim. However, with the right cultivation enviro, he would almost certainly reach the Divine Master Realm, or even surpass it, in a very short time.

  As time passed, Yun Wuji's face grew paler, and the intense bck light emitted from the coffin deepened, enveloping the Moon Sughter Devil Sn's body. The darkness became thiing, like pure dark blood, which tio dense as it shrank in size around the body, f into a dense mass.

  At the same time, the entire formation and room tio tremble, and Yun Wuji began to feel his energy depleting. His face grew even paler, s from his brow, and his body trembled with the strain.

  This went on for what felt like ay, until finally, Yun Wuji colpsed, stopping the formation as he k heavily on the ground, his body trembling from the overwhelming strain.

  "Master! Are you alright?!" The evil infant appeared in a fsh, her tiny hands grasping Yun Wuji's trembling body, her expression filled with worry as she looked up at him, etched across her face.

  "Hmm, I am just a bit exhausted," Yun Wuji said softly, shaking his head. With the evil infant's help, he slowly got to his feet, his body still trembling slightly. He steadied himself before making his way toward the coffin.

  Ihe coffin, the body was no more. Instead, there was a drop of dark blood the size of a baby's fist, pulsating with a dark light.
