Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

With the Ancestral Master's help, Jun Wuxie no longer worried about his soul being forcibly separated from his body, and immediately focused on absorbing the effects of the tea.

This kind of soul separation is different from voluntarily separating the soul from the body; it is uncontrollable and coercive. Without intervention, unpredictable and uncontrollable consequences might occur.

As the tea's effects continued to be absorbed, Jun Wuxie's brow radiated a blazing soul light. The light of his soul gradually intensified, eventually forming a cocoon of soul light that enveloped his entire being.

This time, Wuxie's soul should be able to enter the God Realm.

Tian Jian stroked his beard and said with a smile, "He was once a Supreme in the God Realm. Both his cultivation and soul realm reached such heights. Although his Dao fruit was sealed by his mother, now that his memories have returned, his understanding of Dao and Dharma remains at the same level as before. Therefore, with the assistance of things that nourish the soul, his soul realm can rise linearly without the need for enlightenment, and there will be no bottlenecks before exceeding his previous height."

"Jian Yi, is there really no problem with what we're doing? After all, we're only helping him improve his soul realm, not his martial cultivation. It shouldn't affect his karma too much, right?"

The Phoenix Empress had wanted to help Jun Wuxie for a long time. When he was in the Lower Realm, she had wanted to help him, but she refrained from taking action, fearing it would disrupt his own growth karma.

Now, she had changed her approach and was only helping him improve his soul realm, but doing so made her feel more uneasy than Tian Jian, who had previously consistently opposed the idea.

"Look at you. You were always talking about helping him before you did, and now you're uneasy after helping him," Tian Jian said calmly. "Our help is also part of his karma. Whether it's good or bad for his future fortune is hard to say, but I believe the benefits outweigh the disadvantages…"

Tian Jian told the Phoenix Empress not to let her concern cloud her judgment, and to remember that she was a powerhouse at the Yu Emperor Realm.

The Upper Realm's universe is different from the Lower Realm. In the future doomsday torrent, there is a high possibility that dark curse substances with power exceeding the Saint Realm will appear.

This is the most prosperous era in history. The environment of heaven and earth will evolve to the extreme, and the universe's will will strive for a chance of survival for all beings, leading to a final, great explosion over a period of time.

"In such an era, he needs a higher soul realm, so there's nothing wrong with what we're doing. Haven't we discussed this topic many times before?"

"I'm afraid that his future path will be too difficult, just like it was in the Lower Realm, where he had no one truly fighting alongside him and could only face tens of thousands of dark powerhouses alone. If he were to suffer an attack from the dark curse again, how desperate would he be…"

The Phoenix Empress often thought of the doomsday torrent of previous years. Every time she recalled it, she felt very uncomfortable and couldn't bear it.

"Therefore, I don't think there's anything wrong with helping him improve his soul realm. Even if it affects his future fortune, I still insist that the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."

"Yes, no one's path is truly perfect. There will always be flaws left in the process of growth, and various problems will remain…" The Phoenix Empress persuaded herself, "Anyway, before proving the Emperor in the future, he will have to retrace the path he has taken and polish each realm. At that time, he can wash away all the flaws…"

Tian Jian nodded, but didn't say anything.

He was actually very clear in his heart that the impact on his fortune might manifest in changes to the opportunities he receives, and not necessarily in flaws in his cultivation.

He knew that Phoenix Empress also knew this very well, and was only saying this to convince herself and prevent herself from always worrying about it.

"This process will take a lot of time, and we have to evolve a space-time barrier for him," Tian Jian said, and a piece of Great Dao rune bloomed with his words, flowing with the aura of time.

In an instant, the entire pavilion was enveloped by a time barrier.

The time inside was different from the time outside, and it wasn't simply a difference in the flow of time.

The Phoenix Empress and Tian Jian were also inside the entire barrier, sitting in the pavilion, quietly waiting for Jun Wuxie to absorb the effects of the tea and improve his soul realm.

The whole process was not fast, even though there were no bottlenecks in Jun Wuxie's soul realm breakthrough before the Supreme God Realm.

His soul realm's breakthrough speed was not slow, but it would take a long time to fully recover to his previous peak.

One year… two years… three years…

Time continued to pass.

Inside this time barrier, there was no spring, summer, autumn, or winter, no change of seasons. Only the order of time was constantly running, time was passing, but there was no reference object for the change of time.

Hundreds of years passed like this, and the thickness of the soul light cocoon on Jun Wuxie's body finally stopped increasing.

After a few more years, cracks began to appear in the soul light cocoon, spreading out to form a net.

It was shattering, shattering into tiny fragments of soul light.

At the same time, a strong suction force emerged from the broken barrier, constantly sucking in those fragments of soul light.

As the soul light barrier disintegrated, Jun Wuxie gradually appeared.

There was a golden soul vortex between his eyebrows, frantically devouring the fragments of soul light.

After devouring all the fragments of soul light, he was silent for a while, then suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes, with their chaotic golden light, were quite intimidating.

At the same time, a golden soul body instantly rushed out of his body.

Jun Wuxie hurriedly took action, pointing to various parts of his body. Every time he pointed, profound Primordial runes bloomed, instantly constructing a sealing rune array within his body.

"Ancestral Master, Ancestral Master Mother, my soul is too strong now, and my body can't bear it…"

Jun Wuxie showed a wry smile. He had never thought that he would one day face such a situation.

"This is indeed a problem, but you only need to seal the soul within your body, and don't use soul power above the God Realm on weekdays, and there will be no problem," the Phoenix Empress instructed.

"That's all I can do."

Jun Wuxie nodded. With such a powerful soul, martial arts realm cultivation would be much smoother, even in the Eternal Saint Realm.

Most importantly, he could no longer fear attacks from mental secret techniques, and he would not be afraid of the will erosion of the dark curse when facing dark creatures.

Unless the mental will of that dark curse was so strong that it exceeded his soul realm.

Obviously, he would basically not encounter that level of dark curse for a long time, at least in the Upper Realm universe, he believed he should not encounter it.

"Disciple thanks Ancestral Master and Ancestral Master Mother for bestowing this opportunity!"

Jun Wuxie came back to his senses and hurriedly got up to thank them.

"Why are you being polite with your Ancestral Master and Ancestral Master Mother? Maybe in the future…"

The Phoenix Empress only said half of her sentence and didn't continue.

What she wanted to say was, "Maybe in the future, we will be your father-in-law and mother-in-law."

However, she felt that it was not appropriate for her, as the Ancestral Master Mother, to say this, and besides, Wuxie had not even met her and Jian Yi's daughter yet.

Jun Wuxie really wanted to ask what might happen in the future, but seeing that the Ancestral Master Mother didn't intend to continue, he suppressed his curiosity.

"Oh no!"

Jun Wuxie, who had just sat down, suddenly stood up, his face turning pale. "Disciple feels like this time took a very, very long time…"

He thought of the imperial dynasty in the Upper Realm. After such a long time, he didn't know how the imperial dynasty was now. Could his master, Mu Ciyin, a powerhouse who had just entered the Eternal Saint Realm, be able to suppress it?

"Sit down. What are you in such a hurry for?" Tian Jian stroked his beard and said lightly, "You did take a long time, hundreds of years, but what does that have to do with the time in the outside world?"

"Ah?"

Jun Wuxie was confused. What did he mean by not having anything to do with the time in the outside world?

"Ancestral Master, you constructed a barrier with different time flow rates?" Jun Wuxie reacted and immediately asked, "How many times? A thousand times or ten thousand times? Even if it's a thousand times, several months have already passed in the outside world…"

"It's not the flow of time, but cutting off the karma with the time in the outside world. No matter how many years you spend here, the time outside hasn't changed," Tian Jian said, and casually removed the time barrier. Jun Wuxie instantly had an unspeakable, strange feeling.

He looked at the mountains and rivers in the distance, and it was still the sunset when he had arrived, as if everything that had happened before had not taken up any time.

How was this done?

Could this be the means of a Yu Emperor?

Jun Wuxie was really stunned. He had clearly spent hundreds of years, but the time outside was still perfectly connected to the time when he had arrived.

"There's nothing to be surprised about. In this level of the universe, even Great Emperors can do this, let alone Yu Emperors like us. You'll naturally understand when you reach the Emperor Realm in the future," Tian Jian said. As Tian Jian's voice fell, the Phoenix Empress said again, "Regarding the time in the Upper Realm, you don't need to worry. The entire Lower Realm is now a special space-time. Ten days here is only one day in the Upper Realm."

Jun Wuxie looked at the Ancestral Master and Ancestral Master Mother in shock!

Although he knew that the means of Emperor Realm powerhouses were far more than this, and that this kind of thing could be done in a single thought for them, he was still shocked.

He thought that they had constructed a special secret realm like they did when nurturing the small disciples of the sect, but he didn't expect that they had actually turned the entire Lower Realm universe into a special space-time secret realm!

No wonder the Xuanjia Army's realm was so high!

Calculating, he had been away from the Lower Realm for about five years, which meant that fifty years had passed in the Lower Realm!

In fifty years, in such a favorable environment with endless resources, it was nothing for the Xuanjia Army's main force to cultivate to the Half-Step Great Saint Realm, or even the Great Saint Realm.

If they hadn't spent a lot of time practicing battle formations, they would probably have all become Great Saints long ago.

"It's been fifty years, why is Yinlan only at the Half-Step Saint Sovereign Realm…"

Understanding the details of the matter, he felt puzzled about Ji Yinlan's realm.

Ji Yinlan's cultivation realm shouldn't be slower than his martial arts realm in this environment.

After all, she is the reincarnation of a Celestial Maiden, possessing the Heavenly Emperor's Dao fruit. It's less about breaking through realms and more about gradually recovering her past life's power, so there are no bottlenecks for her.

"Yinlan has amazing talent and unparalleled intelligence. She is walking a second path."

The Phoenix Empress explained that Ji Yinlan hadn't continued down her previous life's path. She had already stopped cultivating by absorbing the Dao fruit of her past life and instead chose to forge a completely new path in this life.

If she can reach the Heavenly Emperor realm on this new path in this life, then when the Dao fruits of both lives merge, her strength will surpass her previous peak, reaching even greater heights!
