96: Both make progress, the Red Lotus Karma Fire!

Seeing Xian Yu's expression, Gu Qingchen chuckled softly.

Then he looked down at An Zhiyu: "Now you know how to be shy, but who was it that called me husband the moment we met?"

"The... the situation is different, you know."

An Zhiyu mumbled, shrinking her head, the blush on her face lingering.

"Alright then."

Gu Qingchen waved his hand, moving Xian Yu to another palace, then whispered: "Now, there are only the two of us here."

"Ah!"

An Zhiyu felt her body lighten and exclaimed in surprise.

"Husband, let's have a little bit of drunken immortal brew first..."

"Okay."

Gu Qingchen lowered his head and saw An Zhiyu's ears were red, knowing that she was truly shy.

As the wine cup tilted, starlight sprinkled down from the Heavenly River at the top of the hall... The next day, Gu Qingchen opened his eyes, feeling refreshed.

He looked at An Zhiyu, who was sleeping peacefully beside him, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

"My Yin and Yang Dao principles have actually made some progress, and even my strength has increased significantly. It seems that after a long period of Cultivation, a good night's sleep is also a good choice."

Gu Qingchen suddenly discovered that at this moment, his cultivation had actually broken through the limit of the Dao-Peeking Realm and entered the first Heaven of Dao Refinement.

And An Zhiyu's cultivation had also received a considerable boost.

Originally, after three attempts to peek into destiny and suffering from the backlash of heavenly secrets, her strength had already broken through from Grand Perfection of the Profound Grotto Realm to the Seventh Heaven of Dao Profound.

Now, she had directly soared to the Ninth Heaven of Dao Profound Realm.

This increase in strength was also quite rapid.

"Zhiyu, stop pretending to be asleep."

Perceiving An Zhiyu's breathing and heartbeat beside him become momentarily chaotic, Gu Qingchen knew she had woken up.

Gu Qingchen knew she had woken up.

"Husband!"

An Zhiyu opened her beautiful eyes, like clear autumn water, and said with a hint of anger.

Her eyes were still filled with shyness, clearly still not quite recovered.

"Haha."

Seeing this, Gu Qingchen laughed and rubbed her head: "Next, I will control the Reincarnation Immortal Palace to avenge the past pursuit by the Demon Race."

"En!"

An Zhiyu shook her fist: "They chased us back then, Husband, you must beat them severely this time!"

Gu Qingchen nodded, taking out the reincarnation seal and the character "Immortal".

Before he could make any move, he saw them merge together, transforming into the Reincarnation Immortal Seal.

"Reincarnation Immortal Seal?"

This change made Gu Qingchen raise an eyebrow in surprise.

He carefully felt it and found that this Reincarnation Immortal Seal retained all the functions of the reincarnation seal and the character "Immortal".

Moreover, it was even easier to use.

Through the Reincarnation Immortal Seal, he found that he could directly see the scene outside the Immortal Palace.

"As I expected, the armies of the Netherworld Land and the Black Calamity Abyss have not yet withdrawn, and there's even an additional Heavenly Venerate guarding each side."

After understanding the situation, Gu Qingchen immediately activated a Formation within the Immortal Palace using the Reincarnation Immortal Seal.

In an instant.

A boundless sea of fire appeared, surging wave after wave towards the Demon Race army.

Each spark of fire transformed into a Red Lotus, appearing enchanting and beautiful.

For a time, countless members of the Demon Race were burned to ashes.

Within the sea of fire, the screams of the Demon Race were incessant, their shrill roars echoing throughout this Void Realm.

"Damn it, what kind of flame is this?"

"We can't resist it with Devilish Qi, the more we resist, the fiercer the fire burns!"

"Who is it? Where did this fire come from? Is it a method from the Netherworld Land?"

"Don't kill me, I'm willing to be your slave forever!"

"…"

Some demon generals struggled desperately, attempting to break through the encirclement of the sea of fire, but were ultimately surrounded by layers of flames, turning into dust in despair.

Let alone these demon generals.

Even a Heavenly Venerate, if they accidentally touched this flame, seemed to have little power to resist, only able to decisively sever half of their body.

"Be careful not to get this flame on you.

It looks like this is Red Lotus Karma Fire, which is most effective against our Demon Race!"

Hong Mo Heavenly Venerate roared.

Facing the sea of fire formed by the Red Lotus Karma Fire, even he had no good solution for a while.

Although he could protect himself, it was extremely difficult to suppress and extinguish this sea of fire.

"Lord Heavenly Venerate, save me!"

At this moment, Blood Sea Demon Venerable, who was specifically targeted by Gu Qingchen, finally couldn't hold on and rushed towards Hong Mo Heavenly Venerate, attempting to get help.

However, Hong Mo Heavenly Venerate avoided him like a viper, swatting him away with a palm.

He could see that Blood Sea Demon Venerable had been burned to his Origin, and even if a Great Emperor intervened, it would be difficult to change his Heaven-Defying fate.

On the other side, Heavenly Venerate Ling Ming of the Netherworld Land also showed a hint of surprise in her eyes when she saw this sea of fire formed by the Red Lotus Karma Fire.

"How did this Reincarnation Immortal Palace spew out a sea of fire formed by Red Lotus Karma Fire? And it's even specifically chasing after members of the Demon Race to burn them?"

And it's even specifically chasing after members of the Demon Race to burn them?

Although this sea of fire also affected some Yin Soldiers and Bone Generals of the Netherworld Land, compared to the losses of the Demon Race, it was simply negligible.

"Could it be that that kid passed the Immortal Palace's trial and then gained control of the Heavenly Palace?"

Lady White Bone, who was beside her, thought of Gu Qingchen, who had broken through the blood sea and rushed into the Immortal Palace more than half a day ago, and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Impossible!"

Heavenly Venerate Ling Ming shook her head decisively: "Even a young Great Emperor would find it difficult to pass the Immortal Palace's trial. Could the person who rushed in be stronger than a young Great Emperor?"

She had also attempted to challenge the Reincarnation Immortal Palace in her lifetime, but only managed to pass the sixth level of combat power.

And it is said that there are a total of ten levels to that combat power trial!

"But how can this be explained now?"

While they were confused, there was another change in the sea of fire.

A large Formation composed of the sea of fire enveloped countless members of the Demon Race.

In an instant, the essence blood and flesh of countless Demon Race members were evaporated and sacrificed, actually summoning a hazy phantom.

This phantom's figure looked somewhat similar to Gu Qingchen's. With a palm strike, it was as if six Universes rotated with a rumble, instantly annihilating countless Demon Race members.

Another finger pointed out, transforming into a Reincarnation Spear, easily and completely obliterating Blood Sea Demon Venerable.

As this phantom was about to continue its attack, it blurred for a moment, then directly dispersed.

"Phew!"

Inside the Reincarnation Hall.

Gu Qingchen's face was a little pale, but his expression was somewhat excited.

"By controlling the Reincarnation Immortal Palace's Formation, I can briefly exert Heavenly Venerate-level combat power! This is still limited by my own strength, otherwise, the combat power could be even stronger!"

The Reincarnation Immortal Palace is a supreme treasure of unknown grade.

Although not specifically for combat, if its full Divine Might could truly be unleashed, even a Heavenly Emperor could be easily suppressed.

However, Gu Qingchen's own strength was still too weak, so even by controlling the Reincarnation Immortal Palace's grand Formation, he couldn't unleash too much power.

"That's about enough."

In this battle, at least several trillions of the Demon Race perished in the boundless sea of fire.

Even many demon generals fell.

Gu Qingchen was satisfied with this result.

Gu Qingchen was satisfied with this result.

"Next, should I continue to challenge the trials, or should I look for Yun Guanwu first?"

...
