All these years, he had been schemed against by Lord Zhaoling. Moreover, Lord Zhaoling had used that kind of sorcery to increase his cultivation. Naturally, he felt that Lord Zhaoling was very powerful. He had never thought that while Lord Zhaoling was improving, others were improving as well. Lord Zhaoling was powerful, but that didn't mean that others weren't.
He thought of the last time he fought with Jiujiu, he didn't have the slightest advantage.
Back then, because of the demonic seed, he was already stronger than before. When he fought against Jiujiu, he wasn't at a disadvantage. Now that he thought about it, Jiujiu had really become powerful.
Lord Shangyuan chuckled. "If that's the case, then I wish you all the best. I hope that after you kill Lord Zhaoling, don't forget to tell me."
Everything in the world was fair.
Immortal lords didn't need to cultivate to ascend. They just needed to go through the lightning tribulation to become immortal lords. Therefore, unlike mortal cultivators who would reincarnate after death and have another chance to cultivate, if immortal lords died, they would die forever.
Their souls would turn into spiritual energy and nourish the Three Realms.
He thought of how he was born as an immortal lord. Later, Lord Zhaoling stripped him of his immortal bones and planted a demonic seed in him, causing his entire body to be filled with demonic energy. Although he didn't have a demonic seed now, he was still filled with demonic energy.
As a high and mighty immortal lord, he didn't expect that when he died, he wouldn't know whether he was an immortal lord or a demon.
When Jiujiu and Lord Dongyuan arrived, Lord Shangyuan was already on her last breath. Now, because of the thoughts in her heart, she had forced herself to speak for so long. She was already at the end of her life. When she no longer had any obsessions in her heart, she swallowed her last breath and her body showed signs of collapsing.
Jiujiu raised his hand and used his spiritual energy to protect Lord Shangyuan's body. He turned to Lord Dongyuan and said, "He helped me before."
Lord Dongyuan immediately understood Jiujiu's meaning. Jiujiu wanted to save Lord Shangyuan.
As long as an immortal lord's body didn't die, his soul wouldn't disappear. As long as Lord Shangyuan's body was intact, he wouldn't truly die.
Lord Dongyuan understood Jiujiu's meaning and immediately protected Lord Shangyuan's body.
Jiujiu had already thought of a way to revive Shangyuan Jun.
Since Lord Zhaoling was so fond of plucking others' bones first, she really wanted to know what expression Lord Zhaoling would have when his own immortal bone was plucked out.
After greeting Lord Origin, Jiujiu and Lord Dong Yuan walked towards the cave.
The other members of the Dragon Tribe were still waiting for Jiujiu outside the Boundary Stele. When they saw Jiujiu arrive with Lord East Source, the members of the Dragon Tribe immediately went forward to ask about the situation.
Jiujiu was busy dealing with the Shang Origin Lord's matter. She waved her hand, indicating that she would talk about it later. She had the East Source Lord send the Shang Origin Lord's body into the Boundary Stele. Then, she had the Dragon Tribe and the Gong Yi Tribe enter the Boundary Stele. After fusing the Boundary Stele into her portable space, she led the East Source Lord toward the barrier.
If she was no match for them, she could at least let these people escape. It could also be considered as a kind repayment for the help they had given her back then.
With practiced ease, Jiujiu sprinkled the blood of the Blood Bat on top of the barrier. When the barrier melted, she passed through the barrier with Lord East Source and entered the Strange Realm.
After arriving in the Strange Realm, Jiujiu went to the border between the Strange Realm and the Heavenly Realm. Once again, she sprinkled the blood of the Blood Bat. When the barrier melted, she entered the Heavenly Realm.
Jiujiu's impression of the Heavenly Realm was that of a true immortal realm. The scenery was beautiful, and every immortal lord and immortal deity was ethereal.
But now that she was in the Immortal Realm, if it weren't for the familiar signs, Jiujiu would have thought that she wasn't in the Immortal Realm, but in the Netherworld.
The place where white clouds once floated was now filled with dark and dense demonic clouds. As the clouds drifted, they spread to every corner of the Heavenly Realm.
The Immortal Tree, which once swayed without wind, had been infected by the demonic aura. Its originally green leaves had withered and were suffused with a weak yellow color. At this moment, with a gust of wind that came from nowhere, the leaves swayed and made rustling sounds. In this empty Heavenly Realm, it was very strange.
Jiujiu and Lord East Source continued forward. Soon, they arrived at the first palace.
If she remembered correctly, the owner of this palace was called Wu Yuanjun.
Among the immortal lords, Wu Yuanjun's temperament was the best. When Jiujiu and Lord East Source had fought, he was the one who didn't do much.
When Jiujiu first came to the Heavenly Realm, Lord East Source was busy rebuilding her body. Jiujiu liked to come to Wu Yuanjun's place when she had nothing to do. This was because there was a big pond in Wu Yuanjun's Immortal Palace, and there were many lotus flowers growing in the pond.
There were no four seasons in the Heavenly Realm. All the flowers and fruits could be controlled by spiritual energy. Therefore, the lotus flowers in Wu Yuanjun's pond bloomed very well. Jiujiu liked flowers. Every two days, she would go to see them. Occasionally, Wu Yuanjun would give her a few lotus flowers. In the end, the two of them became close. He even gave Jiujiu pastries made of lotus flowers.
When Jiujiu saw the palace, she couldn't help but think of the interesting things that happened between the two of them in the Heavenly Realm after she met Wu Yuanjun.
Jiujiu was heartless to Wu Yuanjun, but the two of them could be considered friends. Compared to other immortal lords, she cared more about him.
There were many lotus flowers growing in Wu Yuanjun's palace. Therefore, the demonic aura in Wu Yuanjun's palace was very dense. Even though she had never entered the palace, Jiujiu could already feel the demonic aura that made people upset.
Lord East Source knew that Jiujiu and Wu Yuanjun had a good relationship. He took the initiative to suggest, "Xu Jiujiu, let's go in and take a look!"
Jiujiu also wanted to know if all the immortal lords in the sky were really killed by Lord Zhaoling. She didn't decline and walked in.
As soon as she entered, Jiujiu saw that the pond that was supposed to be filled with spiritual energy was filled with black water that was constantly overflowing with demonic aura.
No, it couldn't be called water anymore. It was a liquid that was almost condensed from demonic aura. The place that was supposed to be filled with pure flowers was filled with Netherworld plants that were baring their fangs and brandishing their claws.
Jiujiu's eyes were sharp, and she quickly killed those Netherworld plants.
Seeing the place that was once familiar become like this, Jiujiu couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, she finally realized that this place was no longer the heavenly realm that was once filled with spiritual energy. This place had been turned into a place that was even more terrifying than the Netherworld by Lord Zhaoling.
Besides Jiujiu and Lord East Source, there was no other aura in the house. Wu Yuanjun had obviously met with misfortune.
Although she had already guessed it when she entered, when she realized that it was really like this, Jiujiu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Lord Shangyuan could be revived because she and Lord East Source preserved their bodies. However, Lord Wu Yuanjun didn't even have a body. If he died, he would really be gone!
Thinking of that gentle man, Jiujiu couldn't help but sigh.
The two of them continued forward.
They passed by many other immortal lords' palaces. They were all empty and filled with demonic aura like Lord Wu Yuanjun's palace.
Because more than ten of them were the same, Jiujiu and Lord East Source couldn't be bothered to continue looking. Jiujiu and Lord East Source walked towards Lord Zhaoling's palace.
As they gradually approached Lord Zhaoling's palace, Jiujiu and Lord East Source weren't nervous at all. Instead, they chatted casually.
Jiujiu asked Lord East Source, "If we lose this time, what will you do?"
