386: Lord of the Demon Realm, Nether Realm

"However, you still could not recall for a long time who exactly its master was."

"It was not until the Cultivators under your command found you through the message you had sent them."

"'My Lord, the strength of the Cultivators in the Xuan Domain is simply too powerful. With our cultivation bases, I fear it will be difficult to discover anything from them.'"

"You nodded indifferently."

"The purpose of you sending them to the Xuan Domain was never to expect them to find someone carrying divine essence, but merely to have them divert some attention for you."

"But just as the Cultivators under your command arrived at your side one after another, you suddenly felt a familiar fluctuation!"

"True Demon Heaven and Earth Scroll!"

"This was a Cultivation Technique you had seized from a Cultivator of another Demon Domain."

"Previously, you had given it and the Primal Monster Scripture to your subordinate Cultivators to Cultivate."

"Letting them choose one that suited their own cultivation."

"Although most of your subordinate Cultivators ultimately chose to Cultivate the Primal Monster Scripture, there were still a few who chose to Cultivate the True Demon Heaven and Earth Scroll!"

"And the aura on these Cultivators was exactly the same as that illusory figure from before!"

"'Could he be that person who is still alive, as mentioned by the Master of the Demon Domain?'"

"'The Master of the Devil Domain from back then?!'"

"'Strange, what exactly is the situation with this person?'"

"You muttered to yourself, a myriad of doubts surging in your heart."

"However, doubts remained doubts."

"After a long time, these doubts could only turn into a heavy sigh."

"The reason was also very simple."

"At this moment, you were highly likely enemies rather than friends."

"After using Fatal Strike to destroy his Clone, it was very difficult for you to inquire about the Innate Myriad Spirits Art from him."

"Several days later."

"After finding Xiao Tiandou through Xuan Yue, you did not continue to stay in the Xuan Domain, but led your subordinate Cultivators back on the road."

"There was no other reason."

"Although Xuan Yue had been intimidated by you, for some reason, the Xuan Domain itself would not give birth to anyone carrying divine essence."

"The World Rank of the Xuan Domain could be this high today entirely because Xuan Yue himself went around robbing others."

"At first, you were extremely skeptical of Xuan Yue's claims."

"But after you performed soul-searching on a few Xuan Domain Cultivators, you discovered that things were indeed like that."

"In the memories of these Cultivators, there was absolutely no information about anyone carrying divine essence."

"All there was, was Xuan Yue going out time and time again, which was what caused the Xuan Domain where they were to constantly grow stronger."

"And their strength also rose steadily, like a rising tide lifting a boat."

"This caused quite a few doubts to surge in your heart."

"But how vast is the boundless Universe? There were simply too many things that could make you feel doubtful."

"Therefore, you could not be bothered to get to the bottom of it, and directly followed the distribution of surrounding Realms that Xuan Yue gave you, setting off on your journey once again."

"However, not long after you left the Xuan Domain, your path was blocked by a team."

"You looked closely and discovered that they were precisely the Yao Race you had encountered in the abyss before."

"This gave you a start."

"Because in your previous soul-searching, you discovered that in that Demon Domain, not only were there many high-Rank Cultivators, but its Realm Master was an existence whose cultivation base far exceeded yours."

"With your current Realm, relying on Overcoming to Subdue, you definitely could not withstand its attacks."

"This was also one of the important reasons why you did not head to another Demon Domain."

"And although these Yao Race Cultivators before you were not powerful, who knew if that Demon Domain Realm Master was hiding nearby?"

"Therefore, the moment you saw them, you had the intention to activate Celestial Travel."

"However, just at this moment, a voice reached your ears."

"'Fellow Daoist, please stay your steps.'"

"'We would like to make a deal with you.'"

"'Our race is willing to take out the Innate Myriad Spirits Art in exchange for the Primal Monster Scripture in your possession!'"

"As he spoke, that Cultivator threw a quaint book over directly."

"This greatly surprised you."

"You immediately opened the book and began to examine it carefully."

"A moment later, having confirmed it was correct, you also threw the book containing the Primal Monster Scripture back."

"And those Yao Race Cultivators were overjoyed upon seeing this item; after similarly checking it, they quickly disappeared from the spot."

"Seeing this scene, although you had doubts in your heart, you did not think too much about it."

"After all, this deal was beneficial to both of you."

"The Cultivators of the other Yao Race could rely on the Primal Monster Scripture to improve themselves, and you could also switch to Cultivating the Innate Myriad Spirits Art, which was more suitable for Human Race Cultivators."

"A hundred years later."

"You led your subordinate Cultivators to a Realm called the You Realm."

"Your subordinate Cultivators began to occupy and plunder this place."

"As for yourself, you began to switch to Cultivating the Innate Myriad Spirits Art."

"This process was very smooth."

"Even because the Innate Myriad Spirits Art was more suitable for you, after you successfully switched to it, your energy was three parts more profound than when you previously Cultivated the Primal Monster Scripture."

"However..."

"Apart from this, it was no different from the Primal Monster Scripture."

"If you were to terminate the contract with the Realm at this time, and thereby rely on the Innate Myriad Spirits Art to Breakthrough, it would at most only allow you to ignore the restrictions three times and Breakthrough to the Peak of the thirteenth Realm."

"'Strange...'"

"'Even with a Cultivation Technique that is suitable for one's own race, one can only Breakthrough three times.'"

"'Then how did the Master of the Devil Domain Breakthrough to such a Realm?'"

"A hint of confusion flashed in your eyes."

"That Master of the Devil Domain was definitely the strongest existence you had ever seen so far."

"Even a single Clone possessed the strength to ignore your Overcoming to Subdue; to what extent would its original body be powerful?"

"And what he Cultivated was the True Demon Heaven and Earth Scroll..."

"Could the fundamental reason why this person could Breakthrough be related to the True Demon Heaven and Earth Scroll?"

"Thinking of this, you once again began to switch to Cultivating the Cultivation Technique."

"Although this process was not as smooth as Cultivating the Innate Myriad Spirits Art, it could not be considered difficult either."

"In just a few days, you successfully completed the switch."

"However..."

"The effect it brought you did not increase, but instead decreased."

"If you were to terminate the contract with the Realm at this time, and thereby rely on the Cultivation Technique to Breakthrough, then it would at most only allow you to break the restrictions brought by the Realm twice."

"Several days later."

"'Report... My Lord, we have finished exploring the entire You Domain.'"

"'There is someone here who was born not long ago and carries divine essence!'"

"'Oh?'"

"Hearing these words, you felt happy in your heart and immediately ended your research on the Cultivation Technique."

"As your figure flickered, you quickly arrived at the location of that person carrying divine essence."

"At this moment, the divine essence on him had not yet reached Perfection, and many of your subordinate Cultivators were helping him complete it."
