"Oh?"
Facing the powerful wind blades, Hei Huang's dark energy rapidly expanded around him, forming a protective circle to resist the attack.
"Such might, congratulations to the Ghost Lord for achieving the realm of a Creation God."
"I didn't expect this half of a Ginseng Fruit to have such a miraculous effect. I should thank you."
From the darkness, a bewitching figure emerged. It was the Ghost Lord, Leng Qianqiu.
"Ghost Lord, I promised to help you achieve the Creation realm, and I have delivered. Do you believe me now?"
"Hahaha, Hei Huang, we each get what we need, and we both know it. Why be so hypocritical?"
"Hey, hey, Ghost Lord, we are in the same boat now. This Emperor can tell you, I clashed with Ye Yun again and found his strength to be comparable to a Creation God. We are both targeting Xue Mian. Do you think Ye Yun will let this slide?"
"What?"
Leng Qianqiu showed a surprised expression. He hadn't expected the so-called Grand Lord of Ten Thousand Realms, who was previously rumored to be so divine, to actually possess such strength.
If this was the case, they would have to face both Xue Mian and Ye Yun. The situation was indeed dire.
"Beside Ye Yun, there is another person. If we let her continue to grow, she might even be more troublesome than Ye Yun."
"Who?"
"It's Ye Yun's wife – Xing Wu. This woman has a deep connection with me. Now, I need the Ghost Lord's help to capture her. If I can obtain the Nine Ultimate Divine Skills from her, then we will fear no one."
"Oh oh, so this is Hei Huang's true plan."
Leng Qianqiu sneered as she looked at Hei Huang. She knew very well that Hei Huang giving her this half of a Ginseng Fruit and helping her achieve the Creation God realm was simply using her as a tool to deal with Ye Yun and Xue Mian.
"Ghost Lord, no matter what you think, our cooperation is a foregone conclusion. If we separate, facing Xue Mian and Ye Yun, we will have no chance of victory. You understand."
"Hahaha, Hei Huang, you exaggerate. Since you helped me break through my limits, I will also help you eliminate Ye Yun and his forces."
"Good, truly straightforward. After this is accomplished, this Emperor wants the Ghost Lord to help partition this Great Thousand World."
"Let's hope so."
The two looked at each other and smiled. Although they both had their own hidden agendas, reality left them no choice but to maintain their alliance.
Divine Forging Mountain, Divine Forging Family.
"Zzzzzz!"
Suddenly, on the family's plaza, the space rapidly tore open.
"Patriarch, someone has forcibly intruded!"
"What? Who could so easily break through Divine Forging Mountain's outer defense array and forcibly enter the interior?"
Li Yan showed a shocked expression. According to the design of Divine Forging Mountain's grand array, even an Extreme Lord God would trigger a reaction when trying to intrude, but this time, there was no reaction.
"Defense!"
With a command, the powerhouses of the Divine Forging Family rushed onto the plaza, ready to protect the super battleship.
In their opinion, this was the Divine Forging Family's greatest project, and it was highly possible that other forces would be attracted to it.
"Hey, hey, why are you all so tense? This Emperor has returned!"
Just as everyone was tensing up to respond, a familiar voice made them overjoyed.
"Ye Yun!"
Song Ziyue's face was filled with joy. She ran towards Ye Yun and hugged him directly.
"You're back, you brat."
"Mm-hmm, Miss Song, please mind your decorum."
Ye Yun felt the soft warmth in his embrace and couldn't help but feel his heart race. He quickly reminded Song Ziyue that many powerhouses of the Divine Forging Family were watching.
"Oh oh!"
Song Ziyue's pretty face flushed, and she quickly pulled out of Ye Yun's embrace.
"Heh heh, Miss Song's affection is sincere, and the Grand Lord is magnificent. We understand, we understand."
Li Yan, with the others, chuckled to ease the atmosphere, but this made Ye Yun even more unable to explain himself.
"Patriarch Li and everyone, please don't misunderstand. Miss Song is a good friend of this Emperor, so she was a bit excited to see me return. There's no other meaning."
"Hahaha, Grand Lord, you don't need to explain, we all understand."
"This, alright, whatever."
Ye Yun's forehead creased. These old fellows were more cunning than he had imagined.
"Grand Lord, it's fortunate that you returned in time. If we had waited another week, this super battleship would have had major problems."
"It seems that this Primordial Kun Steel is indeed of great significance to the battleship."
"Yes, Grand Lord. Without Primordial Kun Steel, the battleship's structure cannot be stabilized, and its defensive capabilities would be greatly reduced."
"Good, this is the Primordial Kun Steel I obtained from the Chaos Land. I'll hand it over to Patriarch Li."
Ye Yun handed all the Primordial Kun Steel to Li Yan.
Sensing the amount of Kun Steel in his storage ring, Li Yan was overjoyed.
"Hahaha, I never expected it. The Grand Lord's efforts are truly remarkable. To obtain so much Kun Steel completely exceeds my expectations. This is good, the construction of the battleship can proceed at full capacity."
"Then I will trouble the elders of the Divine Forging Family."
"Grand Lord, you are too kind. This is our Divine Forging Family's duty. We only hope that after the battleship is completed, the Grand Lord can allow our Divine Forging Family to leave with the battleship."
"Rest assured, since the Divine Forging Family has joined the Ten Thousand Realms, this Emperor will guarantee the safety of all of you."
"Thank you, Grand Lord!"
Li Yan, along with the powerhouses of the Divine Forging Family, bowed in unison. Everyone was ecstatic and full of vigor.
"Kun Steel is here, get to work!"
"Yes!"
Everyone turned and headed towards the construction site.
"Ye Yun, you really worried me. After you left, I learned about the dangers of the Chaos Land from the Divine Forging Family. Not only did you return, but your cultivation has also soared. What happened?"
Song Ziyue was too excited earlier to notice, but after calming down, she felt that Ye Yun's strength was completely different from before. She couldn't even see Ye Yun's true realm now.
"Ha, this is all thanks to the trip to the Chaos Land. The situation was like this..."
Ye Yun took Song Ziyue to a high peak and recounted his various encounters in the Chaos Land.
"My heavens, that's too formidable! You encountered people from the Divine Firmament Domain, the Ancient Domain, and the Holy Emperor Domain, three Level Nine Great Worlds, and you even taught them a good lesson. Amazing!"
"Alas, I didn't want to stand out, but these people were too troublesome and forced me to teach them a lesson. I could only do it casually."
"You seem carefree, but when you do things, you are truly meticulous."
"Not at all, Miss Song, you flatter me."
Ye Yun smiled proudly. This trip to the Chaos Land had indeed broadened his horizons and, at the same time, had spread the reputation of the Ten Thousand Realms Grand Alliance.
"Xing Wu has also returned, and her cultivation has also advanced to the Extreme Lord God realm. She has received Master Mei's true teachings, and her strength is now incomparable to before."
"Xing Wu... Oh, that's truly congratulations."
Song Ziyue paused for a moment, then cupped her fists in congratulations.
