As the gray dot of light entered Yi Yun's body, the Yuan Qi in his dantian began circulating frantically. He instinctively wanted to expel the gray dot of light, but the gray dot of light was like a maggot in his bones. It rapidly burrowed into Yi Yun's dantian.
At that moment, Yi Yun sensed an immense danger.
And at that moment, the Azure Wood Divine Tree's roots were suddenly uprooted from the desolate mountain as they frantically surged back into Yi Yun's body.
The Azure Wood Divine Tree seed had sprouted in Yi Yun's dantian, fusing with him as one.
Upon sensing Yi Yun's danger, the Azure Wood Divine Tree automatically returned to Yi Yun's body.
In an instant, the Azure Wood Divine Tree's branches and leaves filled all of Yi Yun's meridians. Finally, they retracted into his dantian, wrapping it up in layers.
"Peng!"
Yi Yun seemed to hear a dull thud coming from his body. He looked into his dantian and saw that the branches and leaves had formed a cage. The gray dot of light was darting about within.
Yi Yun immediately circulated endless amounts of Yuan Qi into the cage, constantly reinforcing it. At the same time, the Azure Wood Divine Tree's immense vital energy surged at the gray dot of light, completely trapping it. The light also dimmed slightly.
The aura of death finally vanished.
"What the hell is this thing?" Yi Yun sensed that the gray dot of light had only been sealed. It seemed to contain a heartbeat as it was still beating gently.
Through the Azure Wood Divine Tree's branches and leaves, Yi Yun sensed the gray dot of light. He sensed a stranger's aura from it.
The aura was extremely sinister.
At the same time, Yi Yun sensed that the gray dot of light contained a powerful demonic aura. The demonic aura was of a higher level than the demonic servants.
Yi Yun thought about it and felt that the demonic aura likely belonged to Skyfire Sacred Hands's owner. By planting the gray dot of light in Yi Yun's body, Skyfire Sacred Hands's owner could kill him in one strike.
From the beginning, Skyfire Sacred Hands's owner did not fully trust him. He only treated him as a tool.
However, the gray dot of light had been completely sealed by the Azure Wood Divine Tree. Not a single aura leaked out. As such, the demonic aura vanished. Not only could it not threaten his life, it was also impossible for Skyfire Sacred Hands's owner to sense it.
"I'll use the Azure Wood Divine Tree to seal it before absorbing it," thought Yi Yun. Even if Skyfire Sacred Hands's owner did not come looking for him, Yi Yun would not feel comfortable leaving such a thing in his body. He had to refine it.
When the demonic aura was absorbed by the Azure Wood Divine Tree, it would provide it with large amounts of nutrients. It's just that it's not that easy to absorb the demonic qi. It'll probably take some time.
"Yi Yun, are you alright?" City Lord Qin and company flew over and asked.
Yi Yun shook his head, "I'm fine."
City Lord Qin and company did not see the gray dot of light. All they saw was Yi Yun suddenly come to a halt with a heavy expression. Following that, the surrounding spatial Yuan Qi stirred, so they thought that something had happened.
Now that they knew that Yi Yun was fine, City Lord Qin and company heaved a sigh of relief. They only believed that Yi Yun was a little tired. After all, he had just gone through a huge battle.
Thinking about the scene of the earlier battle, all the cultivators and even the ordinary people who saw this scene today would pass it down and remember it.
"Let's return to Myriad City now and purge the plague for those people," said Yi Yun.
Upon hearing that Yi Yun was about to take action, the Zhou family's patriarch was naturally the happiest. However, City Lord Qin was taken aback. "Why the rush?"
Yi Yun had just finished a battle and should be resting. Why the rush?
However, Yi Yun smiled faintly. "It's fine."
Purging the plague for those people did not expend much of his energy. On the contrary, he could even replenish the Azure Wood Divine Tree with some energy.
Even though he had sealed the gray dot of light, Yi Yun knew that he could not stay in Myriad City for long. If not, trouble would soon come knocking on his door.
…
Billions of miles away from the Myriad Divine Territory, in a deathly silent desert, a red-haired man sat quietly in the yellow sand. Strong winds howled, blowing his red hair. It was as though there was a red flame leaping in the yellow sand.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes. His eyes were like two blobs of pure black. They suffused an infinite coldness, as though they did not have any emotions that belonged to a living person.
"Skyfire Sacred Hands is dead."
The red-haired man was somewhat surprised. He did not care if Skyfire Sacred Hands was dead or alive. However, the ancient demonic aura he planted should have already entered the body of the person who killed Skyfire Sacred Hands. But in a blink of an eye, the demonic aura seemed to sink into the sea, vanishing without a trace.
The red-haired man pricked up his brows and extended his hand. He wrote a name in the yellow sand in front of him.
"Yi Yun."
Whoosh!
A gust of wind blew past. The name written in the sand did not move at all, as though it was forever engraved in the yellow sand.
"Interesting." The red-haired man muttered to himself as a smile suffused the corner of his mouth. "What secret could this youth have? From the looks of it, I underestimated him … "
…
The infected geniuses of Myriad City gathered in front of City Lord Manor's entrance, filled with anticipation and excitement. Apart from these geniuses, there were also Myriad City warriors that had rushed over upon hearing the news.
The streets of Myriad City were empty. Nearly everyone in the city came out of their shops or homes as they surged towards City Lord Manor.
Such a grand occasion was even better than when the Grand Alchemical-cum-Medical Meet was held.
When Yi Yun's figure appeared in front of City Lord Manor's entrance, a tsunami of spontaneous cheers sounded.
"Young Master Yi! Young Master Yi! "
These geniuses and warriors looked at Yi Yun in excitement. All of them revealed looks of extreme admiration and reverence.
Yi Yun's present status made it impossible for people to compare themselves to him. All they felt was reverence.
As Yi Yun looked at these people, he raised his hand. The Azure Wood Divine Tree's phantom image appeared behind him as a gentle vital energy immediately sprinkled onto the crowd like rain.
Sharp screams that came from the soul resounded. Yi Yun could hear them clearly, but ordinary people could not hear them at all.
The demonic servants that were hiding in the young geniuses' dantians escaped from their dantians one after another. Then, they scattered in every direction in the sky.
"Condense!" Yi Yun was already prepared. He pointed his finger forward and immediately, the space above the crowd was sealed. Golden threads formed a spatial cage.
These demonic servants were locked in the space and were sucked in by the Azure Wood Divine Tree without any means of resistance.
In just an instant, Yi Yun had healed all the infected geniuses.
"Young Master Yi, this is a small token of my gratitude. It's nothing much." The Zhou family's patriarch was overjoyed. The geniuses of his Zhou family had finally been saved. He immediately handed over an interspatial ring.
It was not only him. The factions backing the rescued geniuses also offered all sorts of natural treasures.
The terrifying strength that Yi Yun had demonstrated today had allowed these people to truly see Yi Yun's future. As long as Yi Yun did not perish, his future was limitless.
They did not have extravagant hopes of befriending Yi Yun. As long as they were slightly familiar with Yi Yun, it was already a great thing.
