After meeting his master, Abyss Primogenitor, and Temporal Island Lord, Dongbo Xue Ying returned to Black Fog Sea to continue his closed-door cultivation. He was clear that he had to transcend first.
After comprehending the complete law of the heaven and earth, he would not be in a rush to improve his inner world or his true deity heart. He would also not be in a rush to break free from the River of Time. He would still head to the Starting Ground as a stage four World Deity. As long as he did not use any combat techniques of the complete law of the heaven and earth at the Starting Ground, who would know about the laws of the heaven and earth in his mind if he did not say or display them?
This was a very normal thing to do.
Time passed day by day.
"Master." A voice reverberated within the underground palace hall.
Dongbo Xue Ying, who was sitting cross-legged within the palace hall, opened his eyes. His eyes were faintly filled with countless divine runes revolving within. Following which, they faded back into nothingness. He asked, "What's the matter?"
"There's a guest who wishes to meet Master. This guest is slightly domineering." The spirit spirit continued.
"Domineering? What's his background? "Dongbo Xue Ying asked.
"He's an emissary under Water Devil King." The spirit spirit continued, "He says he's here under orders, and wants Master to meet him quickly."
Dongbo Xue Ying frowned as he heard that.
Water Devil King?
Ranked 13th on the Cosmos Deity-Demon List!
One had to know that including the mysterious Pang Yi and the eight Rulers, they occupied nine spots on the Cosmos Deity-Demon List. Including Monarch Green and Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction, who were not Rulers, there were a total of 11.
For Water Devil King to be ranked 13th, one could see his strength! His ranking was higher than Bamboo Mountain Prefecture Master, Paragon Huo Cheng, and White Sovereign King.
"This Water Devil King isn't someone to be trifled with." Dongbo Xue Ying thought.
Water Devil King.
He grasped two daos at the same time, and had reached the pinnacle of both daos. When the two daos fused together, Water Devil King's combat power was overwhelming, and he was extremely violent and savage. Even the high and mighty Rulers could not kill him.
In truth, the Sovereigns at the very front were all confident in their ability to protect themselves against Sovereigns.
Like Monarch Green and Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction, there was no need to talk about them. Monarch Hex Cricket, Water Devil King, and White Sovereign King were all people who dared to challenge Rulers. Among them, Monarch Hex Cricket had the mildest temper, while White Sovereign King was crafty and sinister, but he was still polite on the surface. However, the Water Demon King had an eccentric personality. Although he was a powerful expert in the Immortal Realm, he was addressed as the Demon King.
He was extremely powerful and had grasped two Daos. Ordinary Sovereigns found it difficult to deal with him, which made him even more arrogant.
Because the Water Demon King became more and more unbridled, it angered the ancient Primal Master. Although the Primal Master was unable to kill the Water Demon King, he imprisoned the Water Demon King for 300 billion years! The Water Demon King would forever live in a tiny prison the size of a water droplet! Three hundred billion years later, the kinder Archean Master finally let the Water Demon King off. "Cultivate well and become a Ruler as soon as possible. If you continue to be so crazy and violent, I'll imprison you until the universe is destroyed and let you perish along with it!"
After this calamity, the Water Demon King became much more low-profile. At the very least, he would maintain a basic level of respect in front of a Ruler.
"He sent an emissary?" Although Dongbo Xue Ying was puzzled, he still left the underground hall.
…
Within the guest hall.
Dongbo Xue Ying was seated high up in the hall. His personal guard had led the emissary into the hall.
"Emissary, please." The personal guard led the way to the outside of the hall. "The Monarch is within."
The emissary then entered the hall.
Within the hall, other than Dongbo Xue Ying, there were only a few maids.
"Take a seat first." Dongbo Xue Ying said.
The emissary bowed slightly before calmly sitting by the side. The maids naturally brought over fruits, delicacies, and wine. This emissary had the appearance of a beastman. He had two pointy ears and a cat-like face. He sat there with his back ramrod straight, and the aura he emitted was that of a stage three World Deity.
"Monarch, I'm here under the orders of the magnificent Water Demon King." The emissary said.
Dongbo Xue Ying chuckled, "The Water Demon King rarely comes out these days. Is he in closed-door cultivation?"
"The magnificent Water Demon King is wholeheartedly focused on cultivation. Naturally, he wants to break through to the Ruler realm." The emissary confidently said, "This time, I'm here under orders because the magnificent Water Demon King requires some treasures for his cultivation."
"Treasures?" Dongbo Xue Ying felt his heart move.
"The Water Demon King requires a Sun Star Nucleus Stone. I've heard that Monarch Dongbo has one." The emissary said, "Thus, I'll have to ask for your help."
Dongbo Xue Ying frowned slightly.
Sun Star Nucleus Stone?
This Sun Star Nucleus Stone was incredibly precious. As the core material of the Sun Star, the 'Sun Star Nucleus', other than entering the Sun Star to cultivate. It was also an extremely rare material! It could be used for refining treasures, researching flames, and many other uses. Even the Ancestor Mother Religion desired this Sun Star Nucleus Stone. They had ways to sense it from afar. That was why they sent Bamboo Saint.
As for the Sun Star Nucleus Stone, most people would not publicize it.
Those who dared to publicize it were usually Paragons.
Xue Ying could be considered as one of the weaker ones amongst them, but his background and backing were relatively stronger.
"The Sun Star Nucleus Stone is extremely precious. I have a great use for it too." Dongbo Xue Ying tactfully rejected.
The emissary frowned, "The magnificent Water Demon King requires a Sun Star Nucleus Stone. Are you not going to give me this face?"
Dongbo Xue Ying did not doubt it.
After all, the two Daos of the Water Demon King were related to 'water'. Water and fire were similar yet opposing energies. It was normal for the Water Demon King to research on the opposing 'Sun Star Nucleus Stone' to improve his Daos.
"If it were an ordinary item, I would be willing to give it to the Water Demon King. But you should have heard that I paid a huge price for this Sun Star Nucleus Stone! After Bamboo Saint snatched it away, I even killed my way to the Ink Bamboo Great Land to snatch it back. "Dongbo Xue Ying said," It is extremely important to me. I have no other choice. "
The emissary felt frustrated. He then said, "Monarch, the magnificent Water Demon King has also asked me to bring a treasure to exchange for the Sun Star Nucleus Stone. Monarch, why don't you take a look first?"
"Oh?" Dongbo Xue Ying said.
"Monarch, please take a look." The emissary waved his hand contentedly. A drop of golden liquid floated in front of him. There were many runes moving on the golden liquid, "This is the third volume of the absolute art . Monarch can receive it once."
Dongbo Xue Ying's expression sank when he heard that.
The was extremely famous. It was one of the absolute arts passed down by the Lake Heart Island Master according to the intelligence he knew. The originally had six drops of golden liquid. And strangely, these six drops of golden liquid would not appear in the same cosmos epoch! In a cosmos epoch, at most five drops would appear at the same time.
According to the cultivation content, of the six drops, the first two volumes were for World Deities to cultivate. The third volume was for ordinary True Deities to cultivate. The fourth volume was for Paragons to cultivate. The fifth volume was for Rulers to cultivate. The sixth volume was even higher. From this, one could see the strength of the strongest existences in the cosmos epochs. Even the self-created absolute arts were so terrifying.
"It's just the third volume. Without the first and second volume, I can't cultivate it." Dongbo Xue Ying said coldly.
"Monarch, you can use it as a reference." The emissary said.
"It's a pity that I'm a stage four World Deity." Dongbo Xue Ying said indifferently. An absolute art that couldn't be cultivated nor comprehended was only passed down once. And he wanted to exchange it for the Sun Star Nucleus Stone?
His was also one of the six great inheritances of the Ancestor Devil. In order to get Ripple Lady Planet Master's help, he had even sent a disciple to learn the first half of the Blood Demon Scripture. He had even promised to help her complete the array diagram. Furthermore, he had to offer the Void Black Soil and twelve precious materials in exchange for a single Sun Star Nucleus Stone.
Just an incomplete and useless absolute art's third volume, and he wanted to take away the Sun Star Nucleus Stone?
The difference in value was more than ten times.
"The Sun Star Nucleus Stone is extremely important to me. Forgive me for not being able to give it to the Water Demon King." Dongbo Xue Ying stood up.
"Monarch Dongbo, the magnificent Water Demon King needs this Sun Star Nucleus Stone. Do you dare to go against him?" The emissary was anxious. The Water Demon King had always been eccentric. In the past, he didn't even place the Rulers in his eyes. Even though he had suffered a lesson from Primal Master, he still respected the Rulers. He treated other Paragons with disdain. As for a stage four World Deity like Dongbo Xue Ying, he didn't place him in his eyes at all.
He felt that if he gave Dongbo Xue Ying a way out, wouldn't he hand it over obediently?
After so many years, he was already used to it. How would ordinary powerful existences dare to go against him when they heard the name 'Water Demon King'? They would obediently hand it over with both hands. Because the trade was unfair, there were many who secretly complained about him. After all, the title 'Demon King' was not just in name.
"Go against me?" Dongbo Xue Ying's gaze turned cold, "A stage three World Deity like you dares to shout and shout in front of me?"
"Hong ~"
Dongbo Xue Ying's gaze turned cold.
A terrifying surging energy wrapped around the emissary. The emissary felt the world turning dark. A terrifying energy pressed down on him, rendering him unable to move, see or hear anything.
When he regained his senses, he raised his head and discovered that he was already outside the gates of Monarch Dongbo's residence.
"Scram!" A voice exploded in his ears.
The emissary felt his heart trembling.
"Too daring, too daring." The emissary didn't dare to find trouble with Dongbo Xue Ying. He was a stage three World Deity. Dongbo Xue Ying could kill him with a flip of his hand.
…
Within the palace hall.
Dongbo Xue Ying's eyes were filled with coldness. Previously, he felt a strand of ridicule and disdain from Leaf Saint. But this time, the disdain from 'Water Demon King' was even stronger! But Dongbo Xue Ying had to admit … being a terrifying existence that could challenge Rulers, he had the qualifications to do so.
"I might be a small stage four World Deity, but does Water Demon King have the guts to act so atrociously in my Black Fog Sea?" Dongbo Xue Ying sneered.
Bloodshed God Palace territory.
It was fine if it was an ordinary battle, but for someone at Water Demon King's level to dare to act, much less Dongbo Xue Ying, he could even act against any powerful existence that relied on Blood Blade! Blood Blade would appear and act at any moment. This was also the responsibility of relying on Blood Blade … Blood Blade. Otherwise, why would those powerful existences rely on them?
Blood Blade was ranked first on the Cosmos Deity-Demon List, and his deterrence was even stronger than Primal Master's.
Dongbo Xue Ying originally did not wish to offend Water Demon King. As long as Water Demon King paid a slightly 'fair' price, he did not care even if he suffered a small loss. After all, Chihuo Laozu did not use the Sun Star Nucleus Stone, and he temporarily did not need it either.
But –
He wanted to take it away after paying a price that was practically free! The Sun Star Nucleus Stone was not that cheap!
*****
He chased away that emissary.
Following that, everything was as calm as usual. Water Demon King did not use any other methods. Clearly, he was still fearful of Rulers, and even more fearful of 'Blood Blade'.
Time passed.
In the blink of an eye, more than 2,000 years had passed since Bamboo Saint's death.
'I feel that I have accumulated quite a bit of experience. The laws of the world in the unseen world are also blurry, and I can grasp them at any moment. But I still can't comprehend them. It seems that burying my head in cultivation isn't too suitable … I should do as Big Brother Huo Cheng said, and go out and experience all sorts of sceneries and experiences. Who knows, a certain scene or experience might stimulate me. ' Dongbo Xue Ying spoke to his wife before leaving the Black Fog Sea by himself. He began roaming the world in search of opportunities to transcend.
