209: I prostrate myself in gratitude!

Soul Extinguisher only felt the pain of his Divine Soul being forcibly torn and stripped away rapidly receding, replaced by a warm nourishment; the severed Soul threads were reconnected, reinforced, and even became more solid.

The connection between him and the ten thousand souls banner, which had almost been severed, was not only instantly restored but also became clearer and tighter!

His cultivation base, which had originally fallen to Early Stage Soul Transformation, began to surge back wildly!

The dried-up Bloodline within Blood Without End's body was replenished; the essence of his blood Origin, which had been steamed dry, was not only restored but also became increasingly pure and vigorous under the nourishment of the Sacred Demon Qi.

Those erased Blood Sea secret technique seals actually reappeared and became even more profound!

The cracks on Nether Bone's skeletal body mended at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his Soul fire blazed fiercely, more condensed and dazzling than ever before.

The injuries and depletion of the other four were also recovering rapidly, and their Foundation was even more solid and stable than before they were injured!

Within a mere ten breaths, the internal and external injuries of all seven were completely healed, and their auras were even stronger than before!

Cold Moon's movements did not stop.

Her gaze narrowed as her hands formed a profound and ancient hand seal.

The Chart of the Astral Array of the Heavens on the dome of the Heavenly Secret Hall suddenly lit up, projecting beams of starlight that intertwined with the original Devilish Qi in the hall.

"Since you have sincerely submitted to this Holy Venerable, today, I shall help you break through your shackles and reach a higher level!"

As her voice fell, Cold Moon flicked her fingers repeatedly, and seven points of 'Sacred Demon Source' containing a portion of her Origin power were shot into the bodies of the seven!

"Boom—!"

It was as if thunder exploded within their bodies!

Stimulated by the Sacred Demon Source, the cultivation bases of the seven rushed toward the higher Realm barriers like an unstoppable flood!

The Death Qi around Soul Extinguisher turned into a tangible black vortex; at the center of the vortex, a phantom of his Primordial Spirit, existing between reality and illusion, became increasingly solid, emitting fluctuations that surpassed Soul Transformation and touched upon the Law of Void Refining.

A vision of a towering sea of blood appeared behind Blood Without End; within the sea of blood, a Blood God phantom slowly rose, resonating with his true body as his aura climbed step by step.

Nether Bone's skeleton radiated a crystalline jade color, and his Soul fire completely fused with his bones, as a Concept of immortality that could transform into ten thousand bone demons permeated the air.

Behind Qi Qing, the Hall Master of Seven Emotions, a seven-colored mist of emotions billowed, eventually transforming into a faceless and emotionless Chaos Dharma Idol.

A Rune of the Source of Ten Thousand Poisons condensed above the head of Thousand-Hands Venom, the Hall Master of Ten Thousand Poisons.

Ghost Fiend, the Hall Master of Earthly Fiend, merged into the earth veins, his aura connecting with the earth itself.

The roar of an ancient Taotie echoed from within Devourer of the Four Seas, the Hall Master of Gluttony... Within the Heavenly Secret Hall, various visions appeared as Devilish Qi, starlight, and Law fluctuations intertwined and surged!

Bai Lingxi felt a bit envious for a moment.

To receive the power of the Holy Venerable's Origin and have their cultivation bases raised—these seven people were simply too lucky.

However,

Envy aside, Bai Lingxi was very clear that as Su Yang's woman, the benefits she received from him far surpassed those of Soul Extinguisher and the others.

Su Yang watched quietly with a calm expression.

Power is always the most direct and effective language of the Demonic Path.

With this move, whether it be for Cold Moon or himself, they would gain their true loyalty!

About half an hour later.

The visions in the hall gradually subsided.

The Seven Hall Masters slowly opened their eyes; the divine light in their eyes was restrained, yet it contained a pressure and depth several times more powerful than before!

Early Stage Void Refining!

All seven, including Soul Extinguisher, had actually broken through Soul Transformation and stepped into the Void Refining Stage together!

Regardless of whether they were previously at the Late-stage Soul Transformation, Middle Stage Soul Transformation, or if their cultivation base had dropped to Early Stage Soul Transformation after being punished, Cold Moon had directly raised all their cultivation bases to the Early Stage Void Refining with a wave of her hand.

Although it was only the Early Stage Void Refining, for Soul Extinguisher and the others, this was a Realm they would have needed thousands of years of bitter Cultivation to even possibly touch!

Now, it was easily bestowed upon them by the Holy Venerable with a mere gesture!

Feeling the power as vast as the sea within them and the clearly perceived profound Laws of heaven and earth, what welled up in the hearts of the seven was unparalleled ecstasy, shock, and deep gratitude and submission!

"The grace of rebirth from the Holy Venerable! Your subordinates can never repay it even with ten thousand deaths!"

Without any hesitation, the seven immediately stood up and then knelt back down in unison.

This time, it was a willing prostration in total admiration!

"The grace of rebirth from the Holy Venerable! Your subordinates can never repay it even with ten thousand deaths!"

The seven expressed their loyalty in unison, their tone more sincere and fanatical than ever before.

Cold Moon nodded slightly; consuming a bit of her Origin was indeed nothing to her, but seeing such a significant effect, she was also quite satisfied.

Cold Moon looked at Su Yang, handing the floor to him.

Su Yang nodded and said, "Hall Masters, please rise. The Holy Venerable helped you Breakthrough in the hope that you can better serve the Holy Demon Palace. I hope you do not fail the Holy Venerable's expectations, and also remember that she granted you greater strength so that you will have the ability to face even greater challenges in the future!"

The seven hurriedly turned toward Su Yang and performed the same formal salute.

"Thank you for the reminder, Venerable Su! Your grace is also etched into our hearts!"

Soul Extinguisher and the others were not stupid; they naturally understood where this grace came from.

They were originally about to leave, and it was Su Yang's suggestion that led to the Holy Venerable's intervention.

This Venerable Su not only had unfathomable strength but his magnanimity and vision also far exceeded their imagination.

At this moment, their conviction and respect for Su Yang were no different from their feelings for Cold Moon. In fact, because of Su Yang's timely suggestion, there was an added sense of closeness and gratitude.

Seeing that the time was right, Cold Moon gave her final instructions: "Now that your injuries are healed and you have broken through your Realms, go back and consolidate well, and familiarize yourselves with your Void Refining strength as soon as possible. The matter of integration must be pushed forward with full effort."

"We obey the orders of the Holy Venerable and Venerable Su!"

The seven responded in unison, their voices resonant; this time, the seven of them were indeed full of drive and confidence from the bottom of their hearts.

"Your subordinates take their leave!"

The seven were respectful.

Tranquility returned to the Heavenly Secret Hall.

Su Yang smiled and looked at Cold Moon: "That was quite a generous move of yours."

He had originally only thought she would help them improve their strength slightly to show the Holy Venerable's grace, but he hadn't expected Cold Moon to directly use her own Origin power to help them all reach the Void Refining Stage; this was no small consumption.

With no outsiders present, Cold Moon's expression took on a bit of a coquettish, womanly air: "Wasn't it because you said to help them improve? I thought what you said made sense, and since I'm doing it, I might as well give them something big. Husband, I've lost quite a bit of energy this time; you must help me replenish it well later."

Cold Moon's move of raising seven people across Realms to the Void Refining Stage seemed effortless, but in reality, it did involve some consumption.

Could Su Yang sit idly by?

Of course not!

He went up and picked her up in his arms, walking toward the back courtyard: "Since your execution is so strong that you improved them just because I said so, then I must also have some execution and help you recover immediately!"

"Alright~"

Cold Moon put her arms around Su Yang's neck, a bright smile appearing on her cold face.

Bai Lingxi followed behind and said with a smile, "The Demonic Path has just been integrated, and I am the general manager personally appointed by the Holy Venerable. I won't accompany you two for now; I'm going to formally discuss the follow-up matters with them. You two go ahead and play."

Su Yang laughed, "Alright, come back early once you're done."

"With so many sisters accompanying you, is it still not enough?"

"Not enough! Not a single one can be missing!"

"I know. I'll be back as soon as I'm done."

Bai Lingxi's face turned slightly red; she kissed him on the cheek and turned to leave.

Su Yang chuckled and carried Cold Moon to the back courtyard...
