Chapter 604 - 604 Heavenly Elder’s Life Creation Treasure Record
“After I found out the passage was opened, I was about to investigate it, but before I could reach the entrance, I ran into him and the demon at the edge of the secret realm…”
Zhao Yan explained what had happened in detail.
It turned out that after she discovered the abnormality at the entrance, she went to check it out immediately.
However, she didn’t expect to meet the white-bearded elder talking to a demon on the way.
Because she was a distance away, she couldn’t hear the contents of the conversation clearly.
She could only vaguely hear the white-bearded elder asking the demon to leave behind their blood essence when they killed the members of the Heavenly God Palace.
The demon readily agreed. Zhao Yan didn’t hear what they talked about after that because she had been discovered.
Zhao Yan immediately fled, planning to spread the news that the white-bearded elder had betrayed the Heavenly God Palace.
However, the white-bearded elder and the demon would not allow her to escape.
Under the suppression of absolute strength, Zhao Yan was caught by the white-bearded elder in just a few breaths.
She resisted with all her might, but it was all in vain.
The white-bearded elder had severely injured her with a single blow. Just as he was about to extract her blood essence, something happened.
Leaving her behind, he turned around and left the secret realm.
Zhao Yan did not escape.
The white-bearded elder left, but the demon remained in its original spot.
It did not let Zhao Yan go. Instead, it wanted to turn her into a puppet of the demon race.
“That demon was strange. Its aura was extremely chaotic. Apart from the evil Qi, I can feel a strong Yang energy from him.”
Thinking back to the time when she faced the demon, Zhao Yan still had a lingering fear.
“Yang energy? How was that possible? Didn’t demons all grow by absorbing impure energy? Even if they possess the ability to infect others, they can’t convert the power of pure Yang into their own.”
Wan Meng felt that this was unbelievable.
Lin Qiye fell into deep thought.
When he was treating Zhao Yan, he felt her injuries were strange.
At first, he had thought it was caused by many demons besieging her, but he didn’t expect that the demonic Qi mixed in her body came from the same demon.
He couldn’t help but think of the demon in the Earth Immortal Realm that he had killed – Gui Wu.
At that time, after using some secret technique, Gui Wu had transformed into the fat monk he had devoured. The fat monk’s body had been filled with pure Yang energy.
Could it be that the demon Zhao Yan had encountered was also in the state of a secret technique?
Or was there an even higher level of secret technique that Gui Wu had used that could keep a demon in that state?
“I also find it strange. The power of the demon race and the power of Yang are like water and fire. Logically speaking, the two can’t coexist, but they do exist.”
Just as Zhao Yan had said, the demonic power and the Yang power were like fire and water.
The two could live together peacefully and even be used by the demon, which was puzzling.
Lin Qiye recalled his purple lightning. Before Gui Wu self-destructed, he had mentioned to him that the demon race had done some research.
It seemed to involve some secrets of this world.
“The purple thunderbolt is for me to use, but it doesn’t belong to me. Is the demon’s power similar to my purple thunderbolt?” Lin Qiye nodded and muttered.
Before Gui Wu died, he seemed to have seen through the origin of his purple lightning.
It was something even he didn’t know about, yet Gui Wu knew about it. This meant that the demon race had a similar power.
It was the only way to explain how he knew the source of Lin Qiye’s power.
The secret skill that Gui Wu had used, as well as the demon Zhao Yan had encountered, most likely had that power.
Lin Qiye’s expression changed at the thought of this.
He felt that the demons had chosen to lie dormant in this world for 100,000 years not to devour him but for some power beyond his knowledge.
As for pulling him into this world, there was a high probability that it was to add flowers to the brocade or to do so in passing.
Lin Qiye knew well that he had become the seed of the demon race to cultivate a Supreme Being.
If even a Supreme Being could be used as a foil, how terrifying was the hidden power of this world?
“What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”
Zhao Yan could not help but ask when she saw the change in Lin Qiye’s expression.
Lin Qiye returned to his senses and shook his head.
“It’s nothing. I think I’m about to grasp the key to breaking out of this situation.”
Zhao Yan was taken aback. She had just said Lin Qiye’s fate was on a predetermined path.
He could not change it.
However, in a short while, he said he had caught the key to breaking the situation.
How was this possible?
“You must be joking. There are two crises you have to face right now. No matter which one it is, you have no chance of winning!”
Zhao Yan didn’t want to hurt Lin Qiye’s feelings, but she was curious about what Lin Qiye’s so-called key to breaking out of this situation was.
Wan Meng had followed Lin Qiye for a while and knew much of his secrets.
...
Therefore, after combining what Zhao Yan had said, she remembered what Gui Wu had told Lin Qiye.
“Master, are you talking about the divine purple lightning you previously awakened?”
Wan Meng was shocked.
Lin Qiye nodded and did not hide anything from Zhao Yan.
“What purple lightning? What are you guys talking about?” Zhao Yan was confused.
Lin Qiye did not explain anything. With a thought, the power of faith surged.
Then, a silver thunderbolt appeared in his palm. Under the condensation of the power of faith, it quickly turned into a spiritual purple lightning.
Even Wan Meng couldn’t figure out the origin of that purple lightning.
Although he did not expect Zhao Yan to know, Lin Qiye wanted to find someone to analyze it and see if they could find the key elements.
“This is a power I obtained by accident. It’s for my use but doesn’t belong to me.”
When Lin Qiye displayed the purple lightning, he gave a brief explanation.
...
Zhao Yan’s heart raced as she looked at the purple lightning dancing in Lin Qiye’s palm.
“What a magical power! It feels alive!”
Zhao Yan raised her hand and wanted to touch it.
Lin Qiye quickly stopped her.
“You can’t touch it. Its destructive power is too strong. If you’re injured by it, I can’t save you.”
Lin Qiye had only used it twice.
The first time was when he was fighting against Gui Wu. At that time, he had just summoned the purple thunder and suppressed Gui Wu, who had barely reached the Celestial Realm.
The other time was when he established the embryonic form of his God Realm.
At that time, his God Realm was stuck at the 8,000-mile barrier.
Wan Meng bluntly said that only the power of a Supreme Being could break through that barrier.
However, it was broken by the divine purple lightning formed.
The purple lightning’s destructive power was unparalleled. Although Lin Qiye had the right to use it, he could not guarantee that it would be like controlling his own lightning power and eliminating the violence within.
Other than himself, he did not dare to let anyone else touch the purple lightning.
Zhao Yan was also shocked by Lin Qiye’s words.
Previously, Lin Qiye could heal her from grave injuries and gradually recover.
But now, just because she touched the purple lightning, he said she couldn’t be saved.
Just how terrifying was that purple lightning?
“According to what you said, this power is likely to be a turning point. However, I keep feeling that your divine purple lightning has an indescribable feeling. It’s like…”
The more Zhao Yan tried to sense the purple lightning, the more uncomfortable she felt.
“I can’t explain it, but I can feel that its existence seems to affect the origin energy in my body!
“This is a bad feeling. I’ve also felt it on that demon!
“Oh?”
Lin Qiye’s eyes glowed.
As expected, did the purple lightning have something in common with the power that the demons controlled?
“Can you describe that feeling in more detail? It’s important to me!” He said.
The purple lightning might be the key to breaking out of this situation. Lin Qiye naturally needed to have a deep understanding of it.
