Yu Zhibo frowned.
Not to mention that he had already advanced to the Soul Transformation realm, known as a terrestrial immortal, even before awakening, his body was healthy and he had never experienced headaches.
He performed an internal scan of his body. His physical strength was abundant, every cell was full of vitality, and his brain was clear and translucent. His spirit and body were perfectly integrated, so he shouldn't have a headache.
"What happened ten thousand years ago? Why do I get a headache from such keywords!"
Yu Zhibo gritted his teeth. The pain in his mind surged like waves, and the veins on his forehead bulged.
"Brother-in-law, what's wrong?" Bai Yinchen squinted, looking at him thoughtfully.
"Nothing!" Yu Zhibo replied, his face returning to its expressionless state.
Although the headache was severe, it was not long-lasting. When he suppressed the urge to inquire about the events of ten thousand years ago, the pain naturally subsided.
Bai Yinchen noticed Yu Zhibo's abnormality, but with many onlookers, she did not press further and turned her gaze to Mo Li of the Heaven-Splitting Sword Sect:
"When I severed my path and left this realm that day, my true blood scattered across the sky, and you collected more than half of it. I can sense its presence now, hand over the blood."
Above Golden Immortal, one could be called a Venerable. She had entered the Golden Immortal realm in ten thousand years, so her strength was naturally astonishing. Although she could not transcend the river of time like a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, also known as an Immortal Venerable, she could still have a vague premonition of the future.
She had always known that Mo Li had her blood, but she had not taken it back, vaguely feeling that this blood would be useful to her in the future, and only today did she understand why.
The current body was her past self, equivalent to having two selves from different timelines existing simultaneously. If she could cultivate this past self, she would have a clone as powerful as her main body, which would be another trump card.
What needed to be done now was to retrieve the blood she had left ten thousand years ago from Mo Li. After integrating it into her body, her "past self" would no longer be suppressed by the Heavenly Dao after ascending to the upper realm.
Upon hearing Bai Yinchen's words, Mo Li gave a wry smile: "I admit that I did preserve your blood back then, but a thousand years ago, I already bestowed it upon my disciples as a reward to forge sword embryos. There isn't a drop left now."
Bai Yinchen looked at him coldly: "No wonder they say that the old and immortal are thieves. Sword cultivators are known for their uprightness, how could the Heaven-Splitting Sword Sect produce a cunning fellow like you! If you don't return it, everyone on Green Rock Island will be buried with you!"
As Bai Yinchen spoke, she lightly raised her hand, and the Heavenly Fox phantom above Green Rock Island opened its mouth, and terrifying energy began to gather in its maw.
The expressions of the others instantly turned pale.
Even through the energy shield of Green Rock Island, everyone could still feel the immense power gathered in the Heavenly Fox's mouth. A sense of great crisis made everyone's hair stand on end, except for Yu Zhibo.
Yu Zhibo took out a handful of sunflower seeds and acted as an amused spectator. He could feel that his second sister would not harm him.
Liu Yunyan of the Cloud Phoenix Sect immediately cursed: "Mo Li, at this time, you're still playing tricks, why don't you return the Heavenly Fox blood to Senior Bai!"
After cursing, Liu Yunyan looked at Bai Yinchen with a fawning expression, as if she hadn't been the one who had just spoken ill.
The others also condemned Mo Li.
"Return it to her, or die!" the Tu Lu Giant Tortoise said, its voice ancient and desolate, echoing in everyone's hearts.
"I understand!" Mo Li showed a bitter expression, waved his big hand, and a drop of blood with flowing nine-colored auspicious light flew towards Bai Yinchen.
As soon as the blood appeared, an incredibly profound aura permeated the surroundings. It seemed to contain a small world, with many Dao principles flickering and extinguishing, causing the faces of the cultivators to reveal greed.
The elder of the Green Cloud Sect, dressed in a golden brocade robe, swallowed his saliva: "No wonder Mo Li was reluctant to hand it over, he actually used this drop of blood as a trump card to escape Green Rock Island!"
Others also discussed: "If one absorbs this drop of essence blood, let alone breaking through the realm, one might even break through the shackles of this world and directly advance to the Mahayana stage."
"I don't know why Mo Li kept it, why didn't he absorb it earlier? Now that the rightful owner has come."
Everyone's faces showed schadenfreude.
It was good to stay honestly on Green Rock Island. I can't get out, and you can't get out either. This was the inner thought of most people.
Mo Li felt extremely bitter. When he preserved the Heavenly Fox blood, he did indeed want to fuse it with the sword embryo to enhance its strength.
However, not long after Bai Yinchen ascended, this drop of blood, due to the rapid strengthening of its main body, was also continuously strengthened by the influence of karma. If he absorbed it further, he might even enter the True Immortal realm.
He never expected that the rightful owner would come looking for it.
The blood flowing with seven-colored light flew towards Bai Yinchen. Midway, it transformed into a miniature Heavenly Fox, its eyes spiritual, as if it possessed life.
Yu Zhibo clicked his tongue in admiration. Although this drop of blood was not as precious as the Divine Fox Ancestor True Blood obtained through system exchange, it was still extremely rare, and it was about to develop intelligence.
"You're sensible!" Bai Yinchen snorted coldly. The miniature Heavenly Fox formed by the blood did not need her to control it. It flew into her brow like a swallow returning to its nest and then disappeared into it.
"Boom!"
A terrifying aura erupted, and Bai Yinchen's realm soared like a rocket, quickly breaking through Nascent Soul to Soul Transformation, and then advancing from Soul Transformation to Void Returning.
Around her, many laws submitted and were completely assimilated by her own Dao, as if she were about to break free from this realm at any moment.
"The karma is settled, you may leave!" The ancient and desolate voice sounded again, it was the old tortoise speaking.
A smile appeared on Bai Yinchen's lips: "I want to take my brother-in-law with me!"
The old tortoise remained silent for a moment and said, "Agreed!"
After speaking, the light shield above the dome of Green Rock Island cracked, revealing the starry sky.
Unknowingly, the old tortoise had already left the Eternal Night World and entered an unfamiliar starry sky.
The Void Returning cultivators looked at the starry sky in silence. Their Dao had long been completely integrated with the laws on Green Rock Island. If they were to sever their Dao, they could naturally leave, but none of them had the courage.
Bai Yinchen said, "Before I leave, I have some interest to collect!"
After speaking, Bai Yinchen flickered and instantly appeared in front of Liu Yunyan of the Cloud Phoenix Sect. She raised her jade arm high and gave her a resounding slap.
Liu Yunyan screamed and, accompanied by a sonic boom, was sent flying tens of thousands of miles away, heavily injured and spitting blood.
The expression of the brocade-robed cultivator who had once pursued Bai Yinchen changed drastically, and he met the same fate as Liu Yunyan.
After consecutively slapping away several Void Returning cultivators, Bai Yinchen snapped her fingers. In an instant, in a cave in the White Tiger Mountain Range, a White Tiger general, equivalent to the Golden Core stage, exploded into a mist of blood.
This White Tiger general had once bullied the weak her. Her biological father, an adult Pallas's cat, had died because of it.
Along with the White Tiger general, several descendants of the Heavenly Fox who had once mocked her as a mixed-blood Heavenly Fox and abused her also died. She showed no mercy.
"Brother-in-law, is there anything else? If not, your second sister will take you to the upper realm to live a life of luxury!" Bai Yinchen said with a smile.
"This second sister is truly clear about her grievances and debts!" Yu Zhibo nodded secretly, not disliking it.
"Second sister, please wait a moment. I want to ask Senior Old Tortoise something!"
He always felt that the old tortoise knew something and wanted to inquire.
As soon as he finished speaking, the old tortoise's voice echoed in his mind again: "The time is not yet right. All truths will be revealed when you are meant to know them. Fellow Daoist Yu, farewell!"
After speaking, his vision blurred, and he was teleported out of Green Rock Island.
"This old tortoise is truly secretive. He actually has the cultivation of a Golden Immortal like my main body. I wonder where he got his fortune!"
Bai Yinchen looked at the Tu Lu Giant Tortoise disappearing into the void, a solemn expression on her face.
