In this world, any being that knows fear must have a sense of reverence.
And beings with a sense of reverence are more easily enslaved.
If Jiang Tianling remained calm and unperturbed after being suppressed, Zhou Yan’s only ans would be to slay him and completely erase him.
But Jiang Tianling’s Eternal Spirit was unstable, which, beyond being easier for Zhou Yan to capture, had no benefit whatsoever to him.
Jiang Tianling understood this point in his heart, but it did nothing to dilute the fear he felt towards Zhou Yan.
Or rather, he feared not only Zhou Yan but also the Master of Thunder Fla.
No matter how wild and uninhibited he had been before, how assured of himself, even if he had belittled Zhou Yan’s every action, lanting them as pitiful or tragic, he still could not suppress the fear in his heart at this mont.
Once Zhou Yan truly showed a strong surge of power, perhaps even without Zhou Yan taking action, Jiang Tianling’s heart would have already collapsed.
Indeed, that was the case.
"Source of Evil? Lord of Sin? Body Separation? I don’t know about these thods, but I understand the essence of all things. This presence, in other situations, is insignificant."
"Jiang Tianling, don’t even think about escaping through so covert ans, you can’t escape. This ti, I will act against you, even if it ans alerting the enemy, for these are insignificant to as well."
As Zhou Yan spoke, the Thunder Seal was already deeply imprinted in the depths of Jiang Tianling’s Eternal Spirit, while the Five Great Immortal Kings Principles combined with his own Eternal Spirit manifested that Thunder Fla Breaking Path Mountain like a Desolate Domain, enveloping Jiang Tianling completely.
In an instant, Zhou Yan had already captured Jiang Tianling.
This power and technique did not belong to Zhou Yan himself, but was executed using the energy of the Su Wen avatar.
On the surface, everything seed to go very smoothly for Zhou Yan, but in truth, this act of self-destruction indeed caused Zhou Yan to suffer certain injuries, and the losses to his true form were similarly severe.
These losses included the true severance and destruction of a Su Wen avatar, as well as the erosion from Mu Qingluan’s Evil Spirit Nether Origin.
These were true, even though Zhou Yan had employed certain calculated strategies, the result today was ultimately mutual destruction.
Zhou Yan appeared intact and unhard because the current body was another Su Wen avatar, not the true form.
Capturing Jiang Tianling was not difficult because the Su Wen avatar had already achieved Great Perfection in the Eternal Nine Rules.
However, refining and extracting Jiang Tianling’s energy without causing any information leakage was the key.
With Jiang Tianling’s disappearance, the atmosphere on site eased a little, and Jiu Que remained suppressed as Zhou Yan glanced at Jiu Que and, without hesitation, used the Thunder Fla Breaking Path Mountain to collect and suppress it.
Thereafter, in the blood-red Prison, only Hong Jun Ancestor, Mu Youming, Mu Qingluan, and Zhou Yan remained.
Mu Qingluan had already awakened, no longer suppressed, while Hong Jun Ancestor projected a stream of Hongng Qi onto Zhou Yan’s dry true form.
That place, the decayed Eternal Spirit lay lifelessly there.
Zhou Yan approached where the Eternal Spirit lay, then infused all the bloodline Origin from the avatar into the Eternal Spirit’s location, and simultaneously, a unique Rule Power from the Lifeless Sword Dao gradually perated into the Eternal Spirit and the Thunderfla Yuan Ci Sword.
In this situation, Zhou Yan began to gradually weaken.
Finally, even the Su Wen avatar began to shatter bit by bit in this situation.
The two avatars of the Eternal Nine Rules perished here in this manner.
Yet the withered Zhou Yan ca back to life, his Soul Strength severely damaged, and his combat power was clearly affected.
At the sa ti, Zhou Yan’s Eternal Spirit had transford from a young boy of thirteen or fourteen into a man approaching middle age at forty.
Nevertheless, Zhou Yan’s true form also recovered in this situation, and the Origin condensed by the Five Great Immortal Kings Principles was almost half destroyed by this ordeal.
Zhou Yan’s Realm advanced not, nor did it regress, but all the Immortality Principles of the Five Great Immortal Kings showed cracks, the once stable Realm becoming unstable.
Now, Zhou Yan, who initially could match beings of the Eternal Nine Rules Realm, found his combat power reduced to only match those of the Eighth Principle Realm.
However, this sche was won in the end.
Although it was brutal, it was indeed a victory.
For this, not only did Zhou Yan pay dearly, but Hong Jun Ancestor did as well.
But, there truly was no other choice.
To suggest there was no sense of loss or disappointnt would be false; after all, Zhou Yan’s sacrifices, struggles, and endeavors were genuinely for the future survival hope of the Eternal Spirit, not rely for a few Red Faces.
If it were the latter, opting for seclusion in an unknown independent Space or self-Transformation would be far more fulfilling than living in such a manner.
Yet he sacrificed so much for those beings, while those beings plotted and sched behind his back to such an extent, hoping to humiliate and degrade him.
This kind of insight might not be truly understood without personally experiencing the feeling of helplessness.
The changes in Zhou Yan did not escape the notice of Mu Youming and Mu Qingluan; everything seed ordinary, yet Mu Youming and Mu Qingluan understood the situation of Zhou Yan.
"I’m sorry."
Even with Mu Qingluan’s strong character, she still uttered these words with deadened eyes, then turned and flew away without hesitation.
She doesn’t want to see Zhou Yan.
Especially in such a humiliating situation.
And Zhou Yan didn’t answer Mu Qingluan, because so things need Mu Qingluan to figure out herself.
Originally, Zhou Yan really considered replacing Jiang Tianling and investing in the Elf Domain. In this way, after replacing Jiang Tianling’s mories, many things could be turned back and calculated against the Jiang family.
However, that requires Mu Qingluan’s cooperation, sotis even doing so ******** things.
But Zhou Yan, despite being flirtatious, had no feelings for Mu Qingluan, only tolerance for a capricious sister.
So, he gave up on this plan.
Perhaps this opportunity is very rare.
But Zhou Yan now does not think much about the future hope of the Human Clan and only wants to live by his true nature.
This is a very selfish thought, but after experiencing Qingluan’s matters, he doesn’t want to carry everything and do everything.
Of course, he will not give up because of this, but will do his best, just do his best.
This tired heart, because of this incident, is becoming more and more apparent.
Zhou Yan always thought he wouldn’t be tired and was strong enough to support all disasters and misfortunes.
But, after experiencing a trace of death and Nirvana, using Lifeless Sword Dao to carry the Affectionate Sword Dao, reversing life and death, it was like truly dying once; many things he couldn’t let go of, he could let go.
Many things he was reluctant to leave weren’t as important as he thought.
So, even if the King Immortal Principle Fifth Level Realm was shattered, leaving unimaginable scars, Zhou Yan didn’t care much.
Simply regain enlightennt and gather the Origin.
Zhou Yan took a deep breath, calming all the sadness and solitude in his heart.
At this mont, Mu Youming ca to Zhou Yan, bowed his usual proud head to Zhou Yan, and said, "Zhou Yan, I’m sorry. It was our ignorance that caused you devastating harm."
"I’m sorry."
"Father, no need to apologize. As you said, even if you start over again, you would still be deceived. This can only show that the enemy’s ans exceeded your capacity to bear."
"As for my situation, it’s just a small setback during my cultivation process. I’ve co this far for so long, so why care about this disaster? However, during this incident, I saw the essence of the Source of Evil and its powerful energy, so I no longer have any hope."
"Whoever wants to be my enemy, let them be."
"As for you all, I originally intended to unify The Peaceful Realms and continue to expand the Elf Domain, but now upon reflection, there’s no need. Because the forces of The Peaceful Realms, even the Jiang family only sent a weak Jiang Tianling here, aning their focus is not here.
I won’t take the forces from here; this place will be safe for the short term, especially since Qingyan is still in their forces."
"If I were to take away the forces here, it would an touching so hidden rules, making Mu Qingyan without concerns, which would lead to problems."
"Therefore, after resolving Jiang Tianling’s layout, I’ll leave directly, and you all can continue maintaining the camp right away."
"This point is considered a plea from , as a son-in-law to you, please agree. Trust my wisdom, it’s the best choice."
Zhou Yan’s tone is sincere and calm.
This narrative tone made Mu Youming feel a sense of sadness that is out of his control.
He sighed and said, "Zhou Yan, it’s my incompetence, but regardless, my Netherworld Ancient City still has tens of thousands of Eternal Life Seven Rules, nearly a thousand Eternal Eight Rules, and almost twenty Eternal Nine Rules Ghosts."
"Gathered, they excel in the unique Netherworld Bridge Principle, coming and going like the wind and shadow, comparable to the top life forms of the Mantis clan in slaughter."
"For you, they should be of great help."
Mu Youming said bitterly.
"These are indeed strong forces, stronger than the Elf Domain, but for now, let’s not make any rash moves."
"Just follow what I said."
"Additionally, I need to rest for a few days in the Ancestral Blood Land of the Netherworld Ancient City, and afterward, I will leave."
"As for my arrival here, let Qingluan forget it, and if necessary, erase her mory. I’d rather let her continue to hate ."
Zhou Yan thought for a mont and said.
"You indeed lost so previous mories... Actually, her part of the mories was erased by you before."
"Perhaps, she also did many things she shouldn’t have."
"But this ti, there’s no need to erase her mory anymore; she should also learn to bear so things."
Mu Youming sighed and said.
