Chapter 634 Swallow The Black Pill
"Why are you so gloomy, Husband?" Lian Bing asked as she walked beside him. "Are you thinking about Xiao Xiao?"
"Yes." Ling Yun nodded to her. "I feel afraid that Xiao'er will leave me and ascend to a higher realm alone, especially since this universe is vast, and I don't know which realm she will ascend to in the future."
Hearing that, Lian Bing hugged his arm and said to him. "I know how you feel, but you also can't rush to increase your cultivation. Five days ago, you had just broken through to the Lower Soul Realm, but your cultivation has now broken through to the Middle Soul Realm. I'm afraid your cultivation foundation will fail, and it will be detrimental to you."
"I know." Ling Yun then looked at all his women who were focused on cultivating, and their cultivation was increasing so quickly, especially after they dual-cultivated with him non-stop. "How long have we been in seclusion?"
"Three days." Lian Bing then turned to her sisters, and she then conveyed her idea. "Husband, I think it would be better if we looked for a suitable planet for them to train, especially since most of them still lack experience in combat."
"Lian Bing is right, Husband." Feng Ruxue said as she and Feng Ling'er landed before them. "Most of them are cultivating continuously, but they've never fought before, so we have to find a suitable place for them, and we won't leave that place for a long time."
Ling Yun was aware that his women lacked experience, including his mother. He also wanted Yi Mingxia and the others to practice fighting so they could protect themselves when he wasn't with them. "Some time ago, my master told me to go to the Sky Cloud Realm in the upper realm directly. However, I think we might be able to train in Bai Zhongyi's realm first, especially since Long Ma said that her realm is only filled with beasts. Once they are all completely prepared, we will head straight to that realm, and we can start our new life there."
"I think that's a great idea, but we should check Bai Zhongyi's realm first to make sure everything is okay, Husband." Feng Ling'er replied as she nodded. "If the beasts there are much stronger than here, then we can have them train there for a while. However, if the strength of the beasts there isn't that much different from here, I think we can just go straight to the Sky Cloud Realm, and we can find a place quite secluded there to train."
"You are correct, Ling'er." Ling Yun then observed her before asking. "So when will you break through to the Lower Saint Realm?"
Feng Ling'er answered him directly. "Perhaps, after I dual cultivate with you a few more times, I can break through to the Lower Saint Realm. As for my lightning tribulations, you don't need to worry about them, and I will definitely be able to overcome them."
"Even so, I will still be ready beside you when you break through, and I will help you if you are unable to withstand your lightning tribulations." Feng Ling'er nodded with a sweet smile, and Ling Yun observed Feng Ruxue. "It seems you will also break through to the Middle Saint Realm soon, right?"
"Yes." Feng Ruxue replied with a nod. "I will break through in two to three days, so I will be more prepared to face those demons."
"That's good." Ling Yun was satisfied with their progress. As for Lian Bing, since she hasn't broken through for long and is an ice qi possessor, her cultivation is a little slower compared to theirs.
Suddenly, Ling Xi appeared before them, and she threw the black pill at Ling Yun. "You can swallow it, and your demon core will be strengthened again."
"Where did you get this pill?" Ling Yun asked as he observed the pill, and he could feel extremely strong and dense devil qi from it.
"Hehe." Ling Xi chuckled upon hearing that. "After you guys entered seclusion, I went to the demon realm to capture that devil, and this pill was formed from his soul, so the devil qi inside is very strong."
"Huh?" Ling Yun and the three women looked at Ling Xi in surprise.
"Why are you guys looking at me like that?" Ling Xi asked with a raised eyebrow.
Feng Ruxue shook her head at her. "Do you realize that your actions are unusual, Sister Xi? Normally, you wouldn't move if our husband wasn't in danger, but you suddenly went to the demon realm and captured that devil."
"That's true." Feng Ling'er nodded in agreement with her big sister, and she then asked Ling Xi. "Have you also done anything to the demons?"
"Not much." Ling Xi replied with a shrug. "I only freed Zoe's father. Besides, I sent Mao to coordinate the rebel demons, and I also brought Layla to the vampire palace to prepare them for battle."
Lian Bing then said. "You must have done something else too, right?"
"Haha." Ling Xi laughed softly. "I also went to meet Leviathan, and I ordered her to prepare her troops to attack the other demon lords' troops from behind."
"What did you use to threaten Leviathan?" Ling Yun suspiciously asked.
Ling Xi stuck out her tongue before explaining to him. "I threatened Leviathan to give her to the demon beasts, and they would definitely enjoy her sexy body."
They could only shake their heads after hearing that, for Ling Xi was sometimes too evil. "What has that devil done to the demon lords? Did he give them his devil Qi?"
"En." Ling Xi nodded to him. "Since his devil qi is very useful for you, I deliberately let him give it to them. However, the other cultivators might be in danger if they fight with the current demon lords, but I think it doesn't matter, especially since you can help them eliminate it."
Ling Yun nodded in understanding and didn't mind it, especially since he couldn't possibly go to the Endless Darkness Realm to find trouble with the devils, so Ling Xi's actions were indeed the best choice for him.
Ling Xi then informed him. "Currently, Diablo is in the process of waking up, and her demon qi is enveloping Yunlong Zuzhai right now."
"Hmm?" Ling Yun raised his eyebrows and asked her. "Is that okay? Won't Yao'er and the others be exposed to Diablo's demon qi?"
"No." Ling Xi replied with a shake of her head. "You don't need to worry about them; I already protected them all with my qi, so her demon qi won't affect them."
"That's good." Ling Yun replied with a sigh of relief.
"All right, you can swallow the pill now, and I will go out to watch over Diablo." After Ling Xi disappeared from their sights, Ling Yun immediately sat cross-legged and swallowed the black pill, which caused his body to be immediately enveloped in a pitch-black aura, but it didn't matter to him.
However, Feng Ruxue, Feng Ling'er, and Lian Bing immediately moved away from their husband, especially since the aura of the devil was too dreadful for them.
"Big Sis, do you think it's okay if our husband continues to accumulate devil qi in his body?" Feng Ling'er asked as she observed the pitch-black aura.
Feng Ruxue nodded to her. "Since our husband has a devil core in his body, I think it's fine if he does, and it will only make his core and strength stronger."
"But what will happen if we go to higher realms later? What if the cultivators there regard our husband as a devil?" Lian Bing asked worriedly. "If that really happened, there would definitely be many strong cultivators hunting him, and they would definitely attack us as well. I'm not afraid to face them, but our other sisters are too weak for that."
"En, I agree with you." Feng Ruxue then turned to Yi Mingxia and the others. "The only way for them to prepare themselves is to fight those demons, so we will let Mingxia and the others fight with them. We will only help them if they are in danger, or else they will never improve."
The two women nodded in agreement with her words, and Feng Ling'er asked. "Do you think our husband will let them fight?"
"Don't worry, I'm sure our husband also thinks the same as me." Feng Ruxue then said to them. "Apparently, he still needs a long time to absorb the devil qi, so we should cultivate first."
"En." After that, the three of them immediately returned to their sisters' side, and they began to cultivate again.

While they waited for Ling Yun and the others to come out of their seclusion, Zhang Bing, Jiang Chen, the three women from the Feng Clan, Yi Jie, the Huo Twins, and Mei Yi trained together with those female beasts.
Out of all of them, Mei Yi was the most enthusiastic about training, for she felt sad and disappointed that Ling Yun kept pushing her aside. 'Ugh! I'll prove it to you that I deserve to be by your side!"
