Mind Echo!
Su Yuan activated the entry.
His consciousness crossed endless distances.
He arrived at a pitch-black land.
This place was utterly dark, without a single source of light.
Little Cai reverted to her original form, revealing her enormous body stretching three thousand miles.
Her eyes were filled with confusion, as if she was receiving some kind of information.
At this moment, Su Yuan glanced at the system panel and his expression flickered.
Name: Su Yuan
Level: Early-stage Taiyi Golden ImmortalRegion: Nine Nether Realm
Fame Value: lv1 Unknown: (0/100)
Su Yuan was somewhat surprised. This place was no longer considered part of the Immortal-Demon Realm but had a completely new designation: the Nine Nether Realm!
Su Yuan tried his best to sense the surroundings, and soon a shock ran through his heart!
“Calamity energy!”
“This place is actually covered in calamity energy!”
Su Yuan was stunned. Calamity energy was the thing cultivators most dreaded. Once tainted by it, disaster was inevitable!
Even a trace of calamity energy was enough to make people fear it like venomous snakes and scorpions, yet here, calamity energy was spread throughout this endless area.
After Little Cai appeared here, her massive body was frantically absorbing the calamity energy, which sent chills down Su Yuan’s spine.
What exactly was going on?
Finally, Little Cai’s consciousness seemed to recover. After swimming through the calamity energy for a while, she said anxiously, “Master, Master, are you there?”
Su Yuan’s voice echoed in her consciousness, “Little Cai, don’t panic, I’m here!”
Little Cai showed a look of surprise and joy: “Master! You’re amazing to have come here.”
“Do you know where this place is?” Su Yuan asked.
“This is the Nine Nether Realm!”
Little Cai paused, as if testing the reaction from the darkness. Seeing no one stopped her, she continued, “I don’t exactly know what the Nine Nether Realm is, but I do know that I have become a ‘Calamity Fate’!”
“Calamity Fate?” Su Yuan said in astonishment.
“Yes, I will become the manifestation of the heavenly calamity fate. At intervals, I will go to different worlds to unleash calamity. If the heavenly way cannot overcome my calamity, the entire world will be swallowed by me.” Little Cai explained.
Su Yuan’s expression grew grave. “Can you give up this identity? This calamity fate is no easy role to bear!”
“No, because I am a calamity beast born from calamity fate. Once I enter the growth phase, I become a new calamity fate, executing the calamity tasks of the Nine Nether Realm. By the way, my superior is the Nine Nether Realm itself. The Nine Nether seems to be the source of all calamities across the myriad realms.”
Hearing this, Su Yuan drew in a cold breath. Although he had some suspicions, he was still shocked by the horror of the Nine Nether Realm.
Suddenly, Little Cai’s expression changed: “My words have triggered the taboo rules of the Nine Nether. Master, your memory will be erased!”
She urged, “Master, leave here first. You can’t stay long here. It’s not good for you. I’ll contact you after I leave!”
Su Yuan nodded. “Alright, you must take good care of yourself!”
This consciousness of Su Yuan’s then dissipated.
Su Yuan’s true body opened his eyes and suddenly his expression changed.
His eyes seemed to have opened some sort of heavenly eye, allowing him to see wisps of black calamity energy in the world.
“Calamity energy?”
Su Yuan was surprised to discover that because he had visited the Nine Nether Realm once, he had gained an innate divine ability.
He could now see calamity energy!
Around him, dense black calamity energy tried to invade and infect his body.
However, an invisible force surrounded Su Yuan, blocking the invasion of the calamity energy.
Great Being’s Form!
Su Yuan immediately understood that the ability blocking calamity energy from entering his body was none other than Great Being’s Form!
Under the resistance of Great Being’s Form, only a faint trace of calamity energy entered his body.
Then, his Taiyi Dao Fruit blossomed with radiance, illuminating and scorching the calamity energy. Soon, that faint trace of calamity energy was burned away by the Dao Fruit’s power and could no longer affect Su Yuan’s body.
Su Yuan had not expected that after the modification of the Great Being’s Form entry, it could ignore most damage, even repelling intangible calamity energy.
Although he could now see calamity energy, the entry had already been effective before he could see it.
Su Yuan took a step and appeared in the sky above the Seven Stars Realm.
The calamity energy in the world was already extremely dense.
But Su Yuan noticed that the calamity energy was not increasing; instead, it was dissipating continuously.
Above the Seven Stars Market, a vast cloud of fortune energy hovered. Within the cloud, an eighth-grade purple lotus bloomed, and two seventh-grade azure lotuses were purifying the calamity energy in the world.
That eighth-grade purple lotus looked extremely illusory, almost fake, but the various thoughts emitted by cultivators in the market maintained the existence of the eighth-grade lotus.
Su Yuan suddenly realized that was the illusory fortune lotus generated by his deliberate display of the Great Luo Realm. Since he was not truly Great Luo, the lotus appeared somewhat illusory. However, the illusory fortune lotus was slowly solidifying and still maintained the power of an eighth-grade purple lotus.
Not only could it enhance the fortune of sect disciples, but it also covered the entire Seven Stars Realm. The calamity fate brewing there was also gradually dissipating.
To put it simply, Su Yuan’s newly manifested Great Luo Realm had intimidated everyone, dispersing all eyes spying on the Seven Stars Market and the Seven Stars Realm. No one dared to harm the Seven Stars Realm, so naturally the calamity fate vanished.
It seemed that Su Yuan’s new ability was useless.
But cultivation worlds were not so simple. Cause and effect could be reversed. He could clear calamity energy even without knowing its source, directly solving the trouble!
At the same time, he could find ways to inject calamity energy into others.
Thinking this, Su Yuan’s mind moved.
His consciousness traveled via Mind Echo and instantly arrived on a huge warship.
At this moment, the Red Spirit Demon Lord was sulkily drinking in the warship’s main control room.
Numerous empty bottles beside him showed that the Red Spirit Demon Lord had been drinking for a while.
Below, someone cautiously said, “Captain, according to another informant, a cultivator suspected to be Xue Feng was invited by Song Cai, the person in charge of the Seven Stars Market, to enter the upper levels of the Seven Stars Pagoda. There must be something fishy!”
The Red Spirit Demon Lord grunted, “It seems that lord still doesn’t want to let me go. But fortunately, he hasn’t acted personally. Xue Feng? It won’t be so easy for him to deal with me!”
He paused, then added, “Did the exchange for the medium-grade postnatal spiritual treasures succeed?”
“Yes! We spent a huge sum to repurchase the three medium-grade postnatal spiritual treasures for you, Demon Lord!”
The person below respectfully presented three items.
They were the Red Spirit Demon Lord’s three medium-grade postnatal spiritual treasures.
The Red Spirit Demon Lord’s expression eased slightly. These were his usual medium-grade postnatal spiritual treasures; to buy them back was truly fortunate.
The three treasures flew into his hands and were soon successfully refined.
These were his original spiritual treasures, so preliminary refinement was easy.
But complete refinement would take time, and his injuries could not be healed quickly. Compared to his prime, he was only at seventy percent strength now.
“Captain, where shall we go next?”
The Red Spirit Demon Lord pondered, “Our warship must have been left with tracking methods. Since that’s the case, first lose the pursuers. I’ll recover my strength before proceeding to the Maze Star Domain.”
“Yes!”
The warship changed direction and sailed toward a certain direction.
Officers left, leaving only the Red Spirit Demon Lord to cultivate.
Su Yuan’s consciousness watched nearby and saw calamity energy swirling around the Red Spirit Demon Lord.
But the concentration of calamity energy was not high, and his Taiyi Dao Fruit was constantly erasing the calamity energy.
Su Yuan’s mind moved, sending a consciousness into the Nine Nether Realm.
The consciousness enveloped a wisp of calamity energy, then activated the [World Traveler] entry.
The next moment, this wisp of calamity energy from the Nine Nether Realm appeared out of thin air inside the Red Spirit Demon Lord’s room.
Once the calamity energy appeared, it automatically attached to the nearest living being, the Red Spirit Demon Lord.
In this way, the calamity energy on the Red Spirit Demon Lord increased mysteriously.
The Red Spirit Demon Lord was unaware and continued recovering from his injuries without sensing the calamity energy.
After Su Yuan confirmed success, this time he directly wrapped an entire cluster of calamity energy.
A dense black cluster of calamity energy appeared out of thin air in the Red Spirit Demon Lord’s room.
Then the calamity energy rapidly spread, most flowing toward the Red Spirit Demon Lord, while a small portion dispersed throughout the warship, attaching to various demon cultivators!
The Red Spirit Demon Lord vaguely felt uneasy and furrowed his brows involuntarily during cultivation.
