Thanks to the Sea of Blood Celestial Lord’s early maneuvers, the Dark Clan’s deities could only descend upon him.
Let’s just say, the Sea of Blood Celestial Lord might not know much about Lu Ye, but he certainly knows the Darkness Celestial Lord and the Demon Ancestor inside out.
Although the Darkness Celestial Lord and the Demon Ancestor felt a bit regretful, they didn’t have a better plan. The Sea of Blood was already at a dead end, and getting into a spat with them was not such a great move.
But it’s all good, because if worst comes to worst, they can always refine the Sea of Blood Celestial Lord as well.
“Since it has come to this, let’s prepare properly, starting with setting up the Great Formation,” said the Darkness Origin.
“We must be careful; the other side has a Saint. Even if they’re coming from beyond the heavens, we need to be well-prepared.”
“We should get everything organized in advance, including the various techniques and treasures from everyone.”
The Darkness Origin eagerly took the reins and started organizing.
The Darkness Celestial Lord wore a smile. This Darkness Origin had grown up quickly; when he first found her, she had just begun to develop consciousness, and now she could manage matters so clearly.
“Alright, let’s take it step by step.”
At that moment, the aura of the tribulation for becoming an emperor emerged.
The Darkness Celestial Lord and the others gazed across the endless void towards the Seventh Heaven.
“Yin Divine Body? Not bad!” The Fallen Dao Celestial Lord stared at the Yin Palace Lord’s beauty, unable to hide the excitement in his voice.
The Fallen Dao Celestial Lord was quite a unique individual.
He had a peculiar hobby of enjoying the scenes of celestial maidens descending to the mortal realm.
He wasn’t into the more casual types; he preferred those cool, elegant, poised ladies of the aristocracy—pure and immaculate.
He loved to transform those women into something different, but once he succeeded, he’d toss them aside and move on to another type, tirelessly caught in this cycle.
But there was one exception…
Well, not exactly a person, but a creature—a white fox.
While the Fallen Dao Celestial Lord played with humans, he enjoyed the fun of it, but had never met anyone who could truly touch his heart.
Yet, this fox slowly crept into his thoughts.
Even at this moment, upon seeing the Yin Palace Lord, his mind instinctively flashed the image of Bai Huxin.
This was a fox that genuinely cared for him.
Because of his particular tastes, the Fallen Dao Celestial Lord had encountered too many who appeared sincere but were really just pretenders, except for Bai Huxin.
She was willing to sacrifice herself for him.
She only wished for his well-being and nothing less.
The Fallen Dao Celestial Lord brushed aside this thought, planning to visit that fox once this mess was resolved.
If all went well, he’d also be able to recruit the Yin Palace Lord into his ranks.
The Yin Palace Lord was crossing her tribulation.
She was exceptionally strong, and Lu Ye had taught her many techniques of Yin Power, which he had comprehended during his past life for Bai Qiulan. In fact, Lu Ye’s mastery of Yin Dao surpassed that of the Yin Palace Lord.
Among the quasi-emperors, if anyone had improved the most after interacting with Lu Ye, it was undoubtedly the Yin Palace Lord.
She was truly a perfect match.
As the Yin Palace Lord faced her tribulation, it took a different turn since the sun above the Nine Heavens unexpectedly manifested its shadow amidst the tribulation clouds.
The sun is a restraining force against the moon.
This tribulation was even tougher than the one faced by the Infinite Daoist, but at least she made it through.
With radiant light gleaming.
Countless congratulatory voices.
At that moment, the Yin Palace Lord ascended to become the Great Emperor of the Yin.
Previously, there had been a Great Emperor of Yin who, due to the nature of their Yin-Sun physique, frequently resurfaced every so often, likely due to the influence between Yin and Sun.
But what of it?
The Yin Palace Lord was confident; if the previous Great Emperor of Yin had competed with her for the title, who knows who would come out on top!
“Fellow Daoist, congratulations!”
Everyone echoed their congratulations, their hearts ablaze with excitement.
She was the second one!
This was the second successful ascension to a Great Emperor; it was a long stretch without any new emperors, and now two had appeared in such a short span of time.
Sequential ascensions.
Of course, the Infinite Daoist had the strength all on his own.
But the Yin Palace Lord, while strong, certainly wasn’t up to this level before meeting Lu Ye—far from it.
Lu Ye had once again proven himself as a specialist in cultivating emperors.
“Fellow Daoist, I can’t express enough gratitude; the Yin will never forget your great kindness. Should there ever be a chance to assist you in the future, I would shatter my bones without hesitation!” The joy of the Yin Palace Lord was plain to see.
Her gaze was mesmerizing, bright to the point of being almost fervent as she looked at Lu Ye.
Lu Ye nodded with a smile.
“No need for such formalities; if you have some spare time, finding some treasures of the Four Spirits would be great.”
“Rest assured, Lu Daoist! I will do everything I can. See you in the Eighth Heaven!”
“Alright then, fare thee well to the Fellow Daoist’s ascension!”
“Farewell to the Fellow Daoist’s ascension!”
Many quasi-emperors echoed in unison.
The Great Emperor of Yin took one last deep look at Lu Ye before turning and soaring upwards.
Indeed, once one reached this level of cultivation, those who hadn’t sought a Dao Companion before were generally not inclined to do so.
They were fervently devoted to the Dao.
But the dazzling display from Lu Ye was simply too stunning.
A monarch smashing down emperors.
Helping others ascend to Emperor.
How incredible! This was unmistakably right there before the Yin Palace Lord.
The Yin Palace Lord had truly never seen such an extraordinary man.
Particularly after hearing An Li’s words, which further highlighted Lu Ye’s incredible care for his Dao Companion.
The Yin Palace Lord couldn’t deny that she felt a little fluttering in her heart.
However, she also understood that such matters shouldn’t be forced. If she got the chance, she’d seize it; if not, journeying together towards the end of the Dao was itself a delightful thing.
The Great Emperor of Yin ascended.
Lu Ye turned his gaze to Luan Xin.
“How about you?”
Luan Xin smiled slightly.
“Master, I’m coming too!”
Lu Ye didn’t waste words.
“Then come!”
Just as the tribulation for becoming an emperor finished on one side, another storm erupted on the other.
Calamity energy churned, and the heavens and earth shook.
Everyone was truly stunned.
What?
Are you planning to mass-produce emperors now?
Luan Xin revealed her true form, a gigantic divine beast, the Qing Luan, gracefully extending her long wings, the light azure divine glow shimmering along with her wings.
With a sing of the Luan bird,
Another exhilarating tribulation began.
The Fallen Dao Celestial Lord’s eyes lit up at the sight of this Qing Luan.
Good, good, good! It seems the heavens are delighting in Yin; two ladies are undergoing tribulation one after another—very impressive indeed!
