Chapter 1883 - 814: Ruyi, Ruyi
However, Si Huangquan still refused.
The ’Boat Ghost’ could not only shuttle through the Void, it also possessed extremely strong concealment abilities. Although very useful in ordinary times, it was not suitable for the current situation.
Its tunneling speed was still just a bit too slow. While shuttling through the Void was convenient and swift, it required a certain amount of preparation time.
And right after they parted ways with that ’Boat Ghost’, Si Wutian suddenly tilted her head, her gaze freezing as she looked at Chu Xisheng to the side: "Your Majesty? Behind us now, there are many enemies following, aren’t there?"
Chu Xisheng was slightly stunned, then smiled and countered, "Sister Si, could it be you sensed something?"
"I didn’t sense anything at all."
Si Wutian shook her head.
She and Si Wufa, although able to rely on their joint attack Secret Technique and the two Divine Weapons Tian Nai Luo had left them, to reach battle strength at the half-step Near-God level.
However, her own sensing ability was still at the First Grade Upper tier, and had not surpassed the limits of her own cultivation.
"But I know Your Majesty must have sensed danger. Your ’Divine Intent Blade Heart’ can cover several thousand li around us, detecting all Enemy Intent and killing will within this range. And ever since Si Huangquan subdued that ’Servant Ghost’, Your Majesty’s hand has never left the blade."
The ’Servant Ghost’ was the sixth Evil Spirit they had encountered.
This kind of ghost’s temperament was usually to curry favor with the powerful, fond of clinging to dragons and attaching themselves to phoenixes.
They would seek a master to serve, then obtain power from their master.
A Servant Ghost without a master was very weak, but once it had a master, it became extremely formidable—bullying others by relying on its master, indeed.
Therefore, this ’Servant Ghost’ surrendered very straightforwardly, obediently offering up the Yin Queen Crystal Core.
Chu Xisheng merely smiled faintly.
He still kept his hand on the blade, turning his head to look toward that boundless Void.
A dim light flickered in Chu Xisheng’s eyes: "There are quite a few... no, I should say there are Gods following. But with the situation as it is now, I actually can’t quite see through it."
He still held something back when he spoke.
Chu Xisheng had already sensed not just one Upper Eternal’s aura; there might even be Emperor-level Star Gods coming.
The question was, why had these Gods been watching from the sidelines all this time?
Up to now, they had only been trailing from afar, without even the slightest intention of probing with a strike.
Si Wutian couldn’t help but take a deep breath, forcing down the waves in her heart, and continued to follow behind Si Huangquan with an expressionless face.
Si Wufa’s lips twitched.
He knew that the current situation was already extremely perilous.
Don’t be fooled by how they had been smooth sailing all the way, seizing so many Yin Queen Crystal Cores without incident; in reality, they had unknowingly stepped to the edge of a cliff-side trap.
Ask yourself: those Gods plotting after the Yin Queen’s power, how could they possibly have not reacted all this time?
Beneath the surface of the Demon Realm Battlefield’s waters, countless treacherous hidden currents must already be converging, right?
At this point they could only pin their hopes on Chu Xisheng’s Divine Intent Touch Death Blade.
—The more enemies there were, the stronger their Majesty would become!
Chu Xisheng’s other free left hand silently caught Lu Luanti’s small hand and gave it a firm squeeze; at the same time he winked at her, smiling.
Chu Xisheng’s gaze and smile were both peaceful and composed, quiet and deep.
He knew the pressure Lu Luanti was under right now.
The brother-and-sister pair Si Wutian and Si Wufa were only guessing; Lu Luanti, however, could sense it just like he could.
That feeling of being stared at by over a hundred Gods was something ordinary Martial Cultivators couldn’t endure. Even someone as strong as First Grade might be driven insane.
Lu Luanti was slightly taken aback at this, then immediately snorted coldly with a look of disdain, tilting her delicate head to the side.
Chu Xisheng’s smile made people feel reassured and warm.
However, this perilous Outer Domain expedition of theirs was for the sake of Chu Xisheng’s beloved confidante.
She immediately began Breathing, calming and smoothing away the unease and dread sprouting in her heart.
Lu Luanti secretly felt a trace of admiration in her heart.
In the Creation Divine Tree battle a few months ago, when Chu Xisheng had been watched by countless Star Gods, the pressure he felt must have been ten times what she felt now!
It was really something that this guy had been able to hold out.
This guy’s Primordial Spirit and will had actually become tough and Strengthening to this degree! Practically as indestructible and indelible as Evil Exorcism Divine Thunder.

Next, Si Huangquan once again smoothly reclaimed eight Yin Queen Crystal Cores.
By this point, there were not many Hundred Demons left who dared confront her will head-on.
The ’Yin Vein’ possessed death and decay, annihilating power, which restrained all Yin Spirits, Suppressing their strength, allowing them to truly ’die’!
Even if these Yin Spirits were unwilling to surrender their Yin Queen Crystal Cores, they could only obediently present the cores.
This caused the Yin Vein Wings behind Si Huangquan to each extend to twenty-two zhang!
Si Huangquan’s own power had further reached the Peak of Upper Super Grade, with half a foot stepping past the Near-God threshold.
And the various Heavenly Rules Power left behind by Yin Hou Tian Nai Luo essentially stood above her own cultivation.
Yin Hou Tian Nai Luo, like Ween Suyi, could wield battle strength close to Upper Eternal with Near-God Peak power.
This Yin Queen was only slightly weaker than the current Ween Suyi by one or two lines because she lacked a fleshly body.
She had gone through tens of thousands of years of Time, with far deeper accumulation.
And Si Huangquan, who already possessed twenty-four Yin Queen Crystal Cores, had in essence surpassed Near-God by far in actual power.
This was already one-third of Yin Hou Tian Nai Luo’s power.
"A True Death Spirit, huh?"
Chu Xisheng possessed powerful Chaos Bloodline and Chaos Heavenly Rules, encompassing Ten Thousand Laws.
