217: They left the pass and surrounded and killed them.

Qin Huolian is dead.

Princess Zhaoling is dead.

Murong Tianjiao is dead.

The female assassin from the Hall of Yama is also dead.

The four enchanting bodies, which once inspired infinite fantasies, were now withered, lying quietly on the Dao Platform within the Chaos Yin-Yang Boundary.

They died screaming until their voices gave out!

Their entire Cultivation base, along with their most fundamental life essence and partial comprehension of the Great Dao, were extracted by the chaos yin-yang cauldron and fed back to its Revered Master.

Qin Wushang sat cross-legged in the center of the Dao Platform, his eyes slightly closed, surrounded by swirling Chaos Qi and a pure, majestic stream of energy.

"The chaos yin-yang cauldron truly lives up to its name as a supreme marvel for aiding Cultivation... The refinement and feedback are incredibly pure."

Qin Wushang slowly opened his eyes, which shone brightly with divine light. He muttered, "The God King Realm barrier is already within reach."

He looked inward at himself. Inside his dao palace world, the scene had changed dramatically.

The Seed of Life, born from Using the Body as a Seed, had now grown vigorously, transforming into a sapling about half a zhang tall.

The sapling was emerald green, flowing with a strange light imbued with hazy dao rhyme, and bore six leaves.

The leaves were spread open, and different colored Dao lights flowed through their veins, surrounded by brilliant Laws.

"Six leaves... corresponding to six kinds of Law."

Qin Wushang gazed at the vibrant sapling, realizing something in his heart.

"Using the Body as a Seed to evolve an inner world—this sapling might be the embryo of the future inner heaven and earth, the Foundation of the world."

"System, claim the mission reward."

His mind stirred.

[Ding! Detected that the Host has completed the selection mission: Lustful Ghost Possession, fiercely taking possession of Princess Zhaoling and Qin Huolian.]

[Reward Issued: Comprehension of Void Realm Law (Complete)]

As the cold System prompt ended, a vast and incomparably profound torrent of Law surged into Qin Wushang's Sea of Consciousness.

Void Realm Law!

"Buzz!"

Almost simultaneously, a brilliant silver radiance suddenly erupted from around Qin Wushang!

That was no ordinary light, but the manifestation of the Void Realm Law, concentrated to the extreme!

The Yin and Yang Boundary space he was in began to ripple, and then continuously distort.

He slowly raised his right hand, his five fingers long and slender.

With a slight thought, the space in front of his arm rippled like water.

His palm actually sank into the Void Realm without any resistance, the part below his wrist disappearing, as if it had entered another dimension.

This was neither instantaneous movement nor tearing space, but a more natural integration, like a fish entering the great sea.

"The Void Realm... is like an extension of my arm."

Silver light flickered in Qin Wushang's eyes as he experienced this profound state, feeling as if he himself were a part of the Void Realm.

At the same time, inside the dao palace world, the six-leaf sapling gently swayed, and a newly grown silver-gray leaf became visibly more solid at a speed discernible to the naked eye.

"The God King Realm is also known as 'Becoming King through a Single Dao'..."

Qin Wushang retracted his hand, the silver light receding as he fell into contemplation.

"One must select one primary Law from among the many Laws they Cultivate, deduce it to the extreme, comprehend the true meaning of its Domain, and form a unique Law Domain belonging solely to oneself."

"Within this Domain, the power of one's primary Law skyrockets, words become Law, suppressing all other Laws, making one virtually invincible among peers."

"Among the Laws I control, the Lightning Dao primarily governs fierce slaughter, the Void Realm governs unpredictable mystery, and the Five Elements governs the cycle of Foundation..."

"No matter which one I use as the core to construct a Domain, the power cannot be underestimated; it would be enough for me to easily Breakthrough to God King and send my combat power soaring."

However, he frowned slightly. He did not want to Breakthrough and enter the God King Domain just like this.

"But what essential difference does such a Domain have compared to the path taken by the vast majority of Prodigies in the world?"

"Using the Body as a Seed, opening up an inner heaven and earth—I am walking an unprecedented path of invincibility."

"If I become King using a single Law, while certainly powerful, it seems... too small in scope."

"What I want is the absolute power to sweep aside my peers and dominate the current era, a supreme Foundation capable of carrying my future ambitions."

"If I don't Breakthrough, so be it. If I do, I must take the strongest path! I must condense the strongest and most unique Domain!"

"Boom!"

Upon this thought, a crazy idea sparked in his mind.

The Myriad Dao Divine Domain!

To deduce the Ten Thousand Daos of the Heavens, become King through Ten Thousand Daos, and become the most powerful God King.

Qin Wushang no longer hesitated. His figure flashed, and he had already left the chaos yin-yang cauldron, appearing in the Cultivation Seclusion Chamber outside.

Spiritual Qi permeated the chamber, and a faint trace of Dragon Qi remained. He had only been in seclusion for a few days, and the atmosphere outside was unchanged.

Qin Wushang did not linger. He waved his hand, removing the Restriction he had set up, opened the Seclusion Chamber's Formation, and stepped out.

However, just as he walked out of the Seclusion Chamber and arrived at the main hall corridor of the Dragon Breath Immortal Cave, a figure came into view.

She was plump and graceful, exuding mature charm, standing quietly at the end of the corridor, seemingly having waited for a long time.

This was a beautiful mature woman.

She looked about thirty years old, dressed in a deep purple gown with an extremely low neckline, revealing a stretch of snow-white, delicate skin and a deep, alluring cleavage.

Her full bosom seemed ready to burst forth from the thin fabric, gently rising and falling with her breath, creating a breathtaking curve.

Quasi-Saint expert!

Qin Wushang sensed her Cultivation base immediately.

"Young Master Qin, was your seclusion smooth?"

Seeing Qin Wushang emerge, the beautiful mature woman smiled faintly, speaking first and showing genuine goodwill.

"This concubine's name is Chu Qiao. I am one of the Stewards of this Dragon Breath Immortal Cave. Speaking of which, Young Master Qin and I... could be considered half-countrymen."

Her tone was natural, and her posture was extremely humble, lacking any arrogance of a Quasi-Saint expert.

"Countrymen?"

Qin Wushang paused slightly, his gaze calmly fixed on the beautiful mature woman who called herself Chu Qiao. He asked directly, "Are you saying you also come from the Desolate Heaven Domain?"

"Precisely."

Chu Qiao nodded gently, her smile gentle and refined.

"This concubine originates from the Great Chu Royal Family in the Desolate Heaven Domain."

"Counting back, it was over 1,200 years ago that I entered this world through training in the Ancient Desolate Secret Realm."

Her tone carried a hint of recollection.

"I was young then, arrogant and ambitious, thinking of seizing a great Opportunity before returning gloriously. Who knew... I gained some Opportunities, but for some reason, I was detained here and never left."

She looked at Qin Wushang with soft eyes and pressed, "May I ask Young Master Qin, how is the Great Chu doing in the outside world now?"

"Is the one governing the empire still Martial God Your Majesty?"

Qin Wushang fell silent for a moment upon hearing this, then said, "The Martial God passed away many years ago."

"The current Emperor of Great Chu is my Revered Master, Chu Yuehua."

"Chu Yuehua?"

Chu Qiao's clear, almond-shaped eyes widened slightly, and a look of obvious surprise appeared on her face.

"It's actually her..."

"A woman becoming Emperor, ruling the mountains and rivers... She actually managed to do it."

"As expected of the Taiyin Immortal Body, she was destined to be extraordinary."

She seemed quite familiar with Chu Yuehua, her expression suggesting she was recalling the past.

"Since you are from the Great Chu Royal Family, and your talent and Cultivation base are extraordinary, why are you willing to remain in this world and not return for a thousand years?"

Qin Wushang asked the confusion in his heart.

With Chu Qiao's Quasi-Saint Cultivation base, she was certainly a magnate in the Ancient Desolate Secret Realm, enjoying a respected status.

But the suppression of the Great Dao here is severe; even Breakthrough to the Saint Realm is extremely difficult, let alone higher levels.

Staying here means limited prospects!

Hearing this, a smile mixed with complex emotions appeared on Chu Qiao's face—a smile containing sweetness, and also a hint of detachment from worldly affairs.

"As for the reason, I'm not afraid of Young Master Qin laughing at me."

She spoke softly, her gaze directed toward the sky above Dragon City, faintly visible outside the Immortal Cave.

"While training in this world back then, I met a person who was a native creature of this world."

"We came to know and love each other... He was unwilling to leave the homeland that raised him, and I..."

She paused, her smile deepening.

"I was young then and felt that love was more important than anything. Furthermore, since I came from the Royal Family, even if I went back, I would just be a chess piece for a Family marriage alliance."

"Staying here, being carefree and accompanying him, even though the path of Cultivation is a bit harder, and my Lifespan might not be as long as in the outside world, still..."

"My heart is free, and my days are joyful, so it is worth it."

She spoke very cheerfully, her face radiating happiness.

"There's nothing to laugh at."

"As long as you like it."

Qin Wushang said this.

Everyone's pursuit is different; some want love, some want bread, but he is different.

He wants to be the baker who has love, so he can knead his Revered Master's white dough every day.

"Young Master Qin, this concubine waited here today not just to reminisce. I actually have important matters to tell you."

She took a step forward, closer to Qin Wushang, and the faint orchid-like body fragrance became clearer.

"The battle you had a few days ago outside Tiangu City with several Prodigies from Taihuang Heaven caused too much commotion."

"Now, outside Dragon City, a large number of top Prodigies from various great Domains outside the Desolate Heaven Domain have gathered!"

"As this concubine knows, there are at least dozens of God King Realm experts, many of whom are Peak God King existences!"

"There are hundreds of Heavenly God Realm experts! They have all come for you, coveting the great treasures on your person, or intending to fight you."

There was a trace of worry in her beautiful eyes that even Qin Wushang found surprising.

"This time, people from the Qin Clan and the Golden Crow Divine Kingdom have already come knocking! They claim you abducted Qin Huolian and Princess Zhaoling, and they are currently negotiating with the Lord of Dragon City, exerting pressure to demand your handover!"

"Young Master Qin, this place has become a dangerous trouble spot. Before they completely reach an agreement and seal off the entire city, you must leave quickly!"

"This concubine can guide you to a teleportation Formation..."

However... "Rumble!"

Before Chu Qiao could finish speaking, an earth-shattering loud noise suddenly came from the sky above the entire Dragon City!

"Qin! Wu! Shang!"

"You can't escape!"

"Today, this Dragon City will be your burial ground! You will surely die!"

The sound rolled out like exploding heavenly thunder. A terrifying Grand Formation enveloped Dragon City, sealing off the entire massive city.

Dense figures appeared in the sky above the Dragon Breath Immortal Cave, radiating overwhelming dominance.

Qin Wushang looked up and glanced around.

"Burial ground? By what reckoning?"
