Above the blood-colored palace in the void.
The solidified dreamscape of the Wu Xing Demon God had fully materialized.
Vivian, carrying Ye Ling and Karma, flew out of the materialized dreamscape. She immediately retrieved Ye Ling’s hidden body and Karma’s body, saying, "Boss, you should take back your own body first."
"En!"
Ye Ling responded quickly, then, with Karma still in an awakened state, returned to his body and reabsorbed Karma within himself.
Ye Ling had originally intended for the Wu Xing Demon God to stimulate Karma’s potential and accelerate Karma’s awakening. However, with the recent turn of events, it was no longer feasible for Karma to battle the Wu Xing Demon God’s mental projection. Ye Ling had to settle for a compromise, setting up a training ground for Karma within his own small world.
While this would slow Karma’s awakening, it ensured stability, and Ye Ling wouldn’t have to worry about Karma’s safety.
After resolving Karma’s situation, Ye Ling also pulled Auguha Gang out of the dreamscape. He then said to Vivian, "Vivian, sever the Wu Xing Demon God’s dreamscape from him, then transform the dreamscape back and hide it."
"No problem, I already severed the dreamscape from the Wu Xing Demon God long ago."
Vivian understood that Ye Ling intended to use the Wu Xing Demon God’s dreamscape as a springboard for free travel to the dark side of the void. She had already made preparations and quickly transformed the materialized dreamscape back, hiding it above the blood-colored palace.
After Vivian finished, she looked at Auguha Gang, who was trapped by Ye Ling, and asked Ye Ling, "Boss, who is this..."
Ye Ling did not hide anything from Vivian, telling her everything he had experienced in the dark side of the void.
"He’s the third-ranked innate demon spirit, the Realm Demon Spirit?"
After hearing Ye Ling’s description, Vivian looked at Auguha Gang, who was still struggling, with utter disbelief. She exclaimed, "Boss, you’re too insane! You just took a trip to the dark side of the void and came back with a Realm Demon Spirit?"
Ye Ling chuckled, "Just a bit of luck... I didn't expect the Realm Demon Spirit to come knocking on my door."
The Realm Demon Spirit continuously struggled against Ye Ling’s restraints, shouting at Ye Ling and Vivian with annoyance, "Have you guys finished chatting? Can you let me out first?"
Ye Ling looked at the Realm Demon Spirit and said with a smile, "Not yet."
The Realm Demon Spirit roared, "What do you mean? I’ve already signed the Demon Spirit Contract with you, what more do you want?"
Ye Ling: "Be patient, I'm not targeting you."
With that, Ye Ling covered the surroundings with runes, concealing their three presences simultaneously!
Boom!!!
The moment Ye Ling concealed their presences with runes, the blood-colored church exploded. Hong was blown out, half of his body damaged.
At the center of the blood-colored church, a massive vortex appeared, and an incredibly huge palm extended from within, emanating an immensely terrifying aura.
"Wu Xing Demon God!" Auguha Gang’s pupils contracted sharply as he saw the giant palm emerging from the vortex. He immediately held his breath!
He had already signed the Demon Spirit Contract with Ye Ling and taken some of the Wu Xing Demon God’s belongings. Now, he held no significance to the Wu Xing Demon God and had instead become a target for the Demon God’s pursuit.
In other words, if the Wu Xing Demon God found him, he would surely die!
Auguha Gang looked at the Wu Xing Demon God climbing out of the vortex and asked Ye Ling in shock, "Isn’t this the void? How could the Wu Xing Demon God..."
"Shhh—"
Ye Ling gestured for Auguha Gang to be quiet, then exchanged a look with Vivian.
Vivian understood, immediately altering the environment around the blood-colored church and pointing Auguha Gang in a vague direction.
Hong, still unaware of what was happening, looked at the Wu Xing Demon God standing up from the vortex with a look of terror and asked tremblingly, "Demon God, you..."
The Wu Xing Demon God was filled with rage. He raised his hand, grabbed Hong, and asked in an extremely suppressed, frenzied voice, "Where did that human carrying the Karma Spirit Beast come from?"
Hong, terrified by the Wu Xing Demon God’s terrifying state, his mind almost stopped working. He instinctively replied, "After the Courtesan attacked the Chuyuan Realm, that human appeared and saved the Chuyuan Realm’s consciousness... He, he should be in the Chuyuan Realm!"
"Chuyuan Realm..."
The Wu Xing Demon God scanned his surroundings, then, as if confirming something, he threw Hong aside and roared, "Immediately assemble all the disciples of the Red Robe Cult and head to the Chuyuan Realm at once! I will make them understand the price of targeting me!"
"Yes, yes..."
Hong quickly nodded and immediately contacted the bishops of the Red Robe Cult operating in various realms, ordering them to bring their armies to the Chuyuan Realm.
"You treacherous scoundrels, just you wait... I will definitely make you regret this!"
The Wu Xing Demon God roared again, then transformed into a streak of blood-red light and fled towards the Chuyuan Realm.
Hong hurriedly pursued the Wu Xing Demon God.
Not long after the Wu Xing Demon God and Hong left, the vortex, which was about to close, was forced open again. A loud dragon roar echoed, and the Fallen Dragon also emerged from the vortex.
The Fallen Dragon circled above the vortex for a moment, then seemed to extract some information from the surrounding environment. It also pursued the direction the Wu Xing Demon God had fled!
As the Fallen Dragon departed, the wide-open vortex slowly closed.
Near the blood-colored church, peace was finally restored.
Auguha Gang only remembered to breathe after the vortex had completely disappeared. He asked Ye Ling, "What exactly did you do? Where did they go?"
Ye Ling smiled, "Just sent them to where they should be."
Auguha Gang exclaimed, "You set a trap for me from the beginning?"
Ye Ling: "Not exactly. I had other ways to lure him. The appearance of the Fallen Dragon and you was an accident. Although the process was convoluted, the outcome fortunately developed in the direction I desired."
After hearing Ye Ling's words, Auguha Gang stared at Ye Ling with a complex expression and sighed, "My biggest regret in this life is probably trying to scheme against you."
Ye Ling chuckled, "You flatter me too much. Isn't the current situation what you wanted?"
Auguha Gang's eyes flickered slightly, "You, what do you mean?"
Ye Ling laughed, "Haha, I'm just chatting casually. As long as you don't harm my interests, I'm not really interested in your little schemes."
Auguha Gang said solemnly, "I have already signed the Demon Spirit Contract you drafted and pose no threat to you. You don't need to be so suspicious of me!"
"Alright, alright... As you say." Ye Ling said with a smile, "Then now, can you tell me what abilities you possess?"
