Imperial God Emperor

The change at this point was out of everyone's expectation. 

The experts present were all people with great power and influence, thus naturally could tell that it was not Ye Qingyu who shattered the Greater One Spiritual Master's head, but that there was some kind of strange changes. Which was even out of Ye Qingyu's control.

The shock still had not faded from Ye Qingyu's face.

The Greater One Spiritual Master was completely dead, and it was impossible to search for further information from his mind.

However, he had finally found some useful information, such as the appearance of the envoy.

He could try to investigate from this clue later on. 

But what really made Ye Qingyu fear was the black figure in the memory of the Greater One Spiritual Master at the last moment.

Terrifying. 

Extremely terrifying.

“Terrifying, that black figure, could it be a Quasi-emperor?” 

In that split second of reading the memory, the black figure seemed to have sensed something, and a terrifying light pierced through the limitation of time and space, and shot directly toward Ye Qingyu. Luckily Ye Qingyu reacted swiftly and retracted his divine sense. If that terrifying light force were to strike him, then the other side could break through his consciousness and shatter his mind. 

It should be said that the scene in the Greater One Spiritual Master’s memory was something that had happened in the past few years. It was like the projection of a dream. But in that moment, the mysterious figure produced an independent response, and then counter-attacked, like a divine dragon was awakened. It was simply unbelievable. 

He had transcended the limits of time and space. Even a Great Saint might not possess such a skill. 

Ye Qingyu had already vaguely assessed the strength of the dark figure. 

Once the two words Quasi-emperor came out, how many heroes in the world would be intimidated.

But so what? 

The expression in Ye Qingyu's eyes very quickly were as firm as iron. It no longer wavered in the slightest. 

He must avenge Liu Shaji and the Immortal God Emperor Sect no matter what. 

Back then when he was only at the Heaven Ascension stage or the Immortal Step realm he still dared to fight against experts of the Saint realm. Now that his strength had skyrocketed to the pinnacle of the Great Saint realm he naturally would not be afraid of anybody. The cultivation of martial arts was already an action in defiance of the natural order. So what if he was to face a Quasi-emperor? 

Ye Qingyu had made up his mind. Looking at the body of the Greater One Spiritual Master on the ground he suddenly thought of something, squatted down, gently stroke his finger across like a sword and directly cut open the Greater One Spiritual Master’s corpse. Several wisps of sword intent were poured into the body of the Greater One Spiritual Master, roaming around, and instantly cut apart the body like a pig being slaughtered. 

“This... so ruthless.” 

“He wouldn't let him go even if he had died.” 

“Insulting the corpse is really not what a Saint expert should do.” 

“The [Ice Sword Killing God] really is a murderous demon.” 

“Ruthless and merciless.”

The experts on the other side had a change of expression upon seeing this scene. 

Previously, when Ye Qingyu tortured the Greater One Spiritual Master with sword intent, the experts of all sides had already felt that it was not what a Saint expert should do, but now he had even destroyed the body of the dead. What he had done was absolutely vindictive and petty. At this moment, everybody's evaluation of Ye Qingyu was reduced, and felt that he was ruthless and ungraceful. 

Tan Yanzi and the other seniors also could not help but frown slightly. 

Only fatty Li Shengyan burst into loud, hearty laughter, “Haha, Brother Ye Qingyu and I are really the same kind of people. Towards the enemy you are always ruthless and kill to the last one... I also dragged the enemies of the Li family out of their coffin and lashed the corpses with a whip. Hahahaha, that feeling, is really painful!” 

The crowd looked speechless at the fatty. 

Ye Qingyu was also quite speechless. 

The reason he cut open the corpse of the Greater One Spiritual Master with sword intent was not to vent his hatred, but to confirm something.  

The Greater One Spiritual Master, who had obtained that dark inheritance, had a devouring force in his body. This cultivation method was exceptionally bizarre and had an acceleration effect, and must be guarded against. Most importantly, in this dark and devouring martial arts, Ye Qingyu had sensed an aura similar to the captured puppet bloodworm back in the Ancient Sky Dragon Domain. This was a very important piece of information. It should be said that the puppet bloodworm was a treacherous existence that could devour the life of a domain. It was extremely sinister and terrifying. Ren Puyang also attached great importance to this matter. If the dark force behind the Greater One Spiritual Master were connected to the puppet bloodworm then this would be tantamount to a disaster to the entire Vast Thousand Domains. 

Soon, the body of the Greater One Spiritual Master was cut into hundreds of pieces. 

Ye Qingyu slowly stood up. 

“It is indeed similar to the power of the puppet bloodworm, but the puppet bloodworm had more of a natural primitive innate force, while the dark force in Feng Wuhen's body is a cultivation method. That mysterious shadow had planted a dark demonic seed in his body. Feng Wuhen's body had been transformed long ago, so was able to bear the power of this dark demon seed, and then continued to devour the essence of external forces and then soar to the sky.” 

He pondered intently. 

But what he was certain about was that there was definitely a deep connection between the puppet bloodworm and the dark demon seed. 

Ye Qingyu had a clearer understanding through the analysis of the yuan qi operation in the meridians of the Greater One Spiritual Master. 

He had originally long wanted to use the puppet bloodworm to make battle puppets, like the golden puppets of the Green Xuan Hall, but he was uncertain on how to. After all, this was almost similar to creating life. However, after this, Ye Qingyu had a plan in mind and understood something, the Greater One Spiritual Master was just a puppet of the dark figure, and the operation of the power in his body was similar to the formations of the battle puppets. 

Next, he just needed to find some materials that were suitable to refine a puppet. 

Ye Qingyu's eyes fell again on the [White Lotus Immortal Sword] in his hand. 

The colour of the white Lotus is bright and clear, the silver sword tip never age, destroying devil and the evil. One sword strike beheads a group of demons! 

Liu Shaji had died, the White Lotus Sword song would most likely never be heard again.

Just as he was about to put the White Lotus Immortal sword away, the voice of the million-year-old soul suddenly sounded, “There is something in this sword... gee, I almost overlooked...” He spoke in a very surprised tone.  

Ye Qingyu was taken aback. “There is something in the sword?” 

For a moment he did not understand what the million-year-old soul meant. 

“There is the life force of a spirit. The sword seems to have imprisoned the spirit origin of someone.” The million-year-old soul sounded greatly surprised. “This sword is extraordinary, and is definitely not as simple as it looks on the surface. Yes, the spirit origin seems to have been sealed within the day. It is most likely that the sword had absorbed the last trace of spirit origin after someone’s death. If you can crack the seal of this sword, find a land of opportunity and good fortune, you may be able to ignite this spirit origin, so that the person can be resurrected.”

What? 

Ye Qingyu was trembling inwardly upon hearing this. 

There was such a thing? 

Spirit origin?

Sealed in the sword?

A light flashed across Ye Qingyu's mind as he immediately realized something. To be able to be absorbed by the [White Lotus Immortal Sword]'s body, and to have happened in the recent days, besides Liu Shaji, who else could it be? It must have been that when Liu Shaji was killed, a wisp of his spirit origin wasn’t destroyed and was saved by the [White Lotus Immortal Sword]. There was still hope.

Ye Qingyu couldn't help feeling ecstatic. 

Although this was only a guess, and that there may be other possibilities, but Ye Qingyu did not want to think otherwise and firmly believed that it must be Liu Shaji. 

He instantly made up his mind that, no matter what, he must resurrect the spirit origin in the [White Lotus Immortal Sword].

He took a deep breath and calmed down, before he hurriedly asked the million-year-old soul what kind of land of opportunity and good fortune did he need to resurrect the spirit origin in the sword.  

“The so-called land of opportunity and good fortune must be a natural paradise. There must be one behind the door of the demon domain of the Chaos Demon Emperor Reincarnation Hall. If you want to resurrect the spirit in the sword then I will guide you at the right time,” the million-year-old spirit said firmly. 

These words were like celestial sounds to Ye Qingyu. 

He wanted to ask more details, but that was when—— 

“Look, the door of the demon domain seems to be changing!”

Fatty Li Shengyan glanced at the direction of the giant door in the midst of the sea of chaotic mist, and suddenly exclaimed out loud. 

The crowd was startled. 

Countless eyes immediately looked over at the door of the demon domain at the same time.

There was indeed a sudden change. From the originally giant still door there were ink-like mist seeping out, like vines, entangling with each other, and ancient and magnificent demonic aura spread all around, like there was some sort of demon hidden behind the door stretching out a tentacle into this world. 

Slowly, the black mist, as though it had been guided by a mysterious force, converged at the center of the giant door. 

A huge and strange ancient character was formed by the mist.  

“This... I know this character, it’s the ancient God Demon writing, it is read as [Immortal]!” Fatty Li Shengyan exclaimed, and did not forget to put on a smug look on his face.  

The Patriarch of the Mountain Yao Sect, Zhang Daowu, nodded, eyes lit up with excitement. “This is writing of the God and Demon Age. It is indeed the [Immortal] character after translation.”

“It's that character, could it be that... behind the demon door is the Immortal Domain?” Situ Kongming, the Patriarch of the Pill Dao Sect, looked hopefully in the direction of the door.

“The door of the demon domain had undergone changes, it must be opening soon.” 

“The time has come!” 

“Great, the moment is finally here!”

The other experts were also boiling with excitement, hanging in suspense. 

But the expression on Ye Qingyu's face suddenly became strange. 

He stood there motionless, as if he was staring entranced at the door of the demon domain. When he heard the comments of the crowd around, he did not say anything, but was incomparably shocked. 

No! 

It was not the [Immortal] character! 

In Ye Qingyu’s view, the character that came out of the door of the demon domain was clearly the word [Demon]! 

He even couldn't help wiping his eyes, secretly activated the [Eyes of the Void], and again carefully examined the character on the giant door, but it was still the [Demon] character and not [Immortal]. 

What was going on?  

Fatty Li Shengyan, who was from a Quasi-emperor family, definitely had a better knowledge in the writings of the God and Demon Age than him. Moreover, there were several Human Race seniors here, who were all people with great power and influence, and were the top elites of the Human Race. They must have some knowledge in the ancient writings of the God and Demon Age. Adding to this, there were experts of other races... it is understandable for one person to make a mistake, but it was impossible for so many experts to be wrong at the same time. 

This indicated that they could not have read the character on the door wrong, and it was indeed the [Immortal] character.

But why was it that, in his eyes, it had become the [Demon] character? 

The mist that made up the character receded toward both sides of the door. 

The door of the demon domain opened——
