Above all spirits

Chapter 238 Netherworld

"I'll call you Number One. Remember, only by keeping up with my pace will you avoid being replaced!"

Although Chen Yuan's voice was somewhat immature, it did not diminish the domineering tone that emanated from within.

His eyes were incredibly sharp, carrying an undeniable air of authority.

He gently stroked the fur of the giant wolf, which was as tall as a mountain and exuded a vast, dark purple mist.

It seemed to possess sentience, understanding the other layer of meaning in Chen Yuan's words. It lowered its head and let out two low roars, as if responding to Chen Yuan's decree.

Chen Yuan nodded, and with a thought, the giant wolf's form suddenly blurred, spread out, and turned into a cloud of blackish-purple dust, which quickly merged into Chen Yuan's body.

In an instant, the surroundings returned to deathly silence, with only a few wisps of sand whispering in the wilderness.

He slowly raised his hand, his gaze sweeping over the broken jade pendant in his palm. His eyelids twitched involuntarily, and a shadow of gloom suddenly swept through his heart.

"Something just feels off."

Immediately afterwards, his pupils contracted sharply, and his face turned deathly pale, as if a towering mountain had been pressing down on his back.

"wrong..."

"wrong!!"

"In this life, the Reincarnation Jade is in my hands, so how did Qing'er... overcome all the crises she told me about back then?!"

Chen Yuan muttered to himself, his heart instantly ignited by the fire of anxiety, and even his breathing became rapid.

Although he didn't use the Reincarnation Jade to glimpse the future as Qing'er had described in her previous life, before this rebirth, Chen Yuan had always regarded it as a joke, a commemorative jade.

But once these are confirmed, the ability Qing'er spoke of to foresee the future, the bizarre ability that allows her to anticipate impending disasters and prepare accordingly, may very well be real.

But now that the Reincarnation Jade is in her hands, how can Qing'er safely overcome those predetermined dangers?

Chen Yuan's face grew increasingly grim, his thoughts raced, and his eyes sharpened.

“Canglan Star... Qing’er seems to have mentioned that she came to this human realm’s Canglan Star.”

"Canglan Star... why does that name sound so familiar?"

"That old demon seems to have also come from Canglan Star?!"

The emotional turmoil was like a violent storm. This thought made Chen Yuan feel as if a terrifying ghostly hand had pinched his heart. His vision blurred, and he staggered two steps involuntarily.

An overwhelming sense of fear followed, and Chen Yuan gripped the broken Reincarnation Jade tightly, his fingertips turning pale and losing their rosy hue.

Because at his current level, neither his cultivation nor his wealth is sufficient for him to cross the boundary and travel to Canglan Star to search for her.

"Damn...damn!"

Chen Yuan roared, his anger and panic almost driving him to madness.

"Nothing can happen! Absolutely nothing can happen!"

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

However, the anxiety in my heart was like an invisible torrent, growing stronger and stronger.

"Damn you, God, don't play me for a fool! Since you've given me a second chance at life, I promise you I will save this world from being swallowed up by the void. But if Qing'er is in danger, the world will have no meaning for me anymore."

Chen Yuan took a sudden step and leaped into the air.

The dark purple dust beneath his feet danced as if summoned, and the figure of the giant dust wolf appeared in a gust of wind.

Without hesitation, Chen Yuan leaped onto the wolf's back. With a quick slumber, he was firmly seated on the giant wolf's back. The giant wolf and Chen Yuan seemed to be of one mind; without any instruction, the wolf transformed into a streak of black-purple lightning and vanished instantly into the desolate Ghost God Ridge.

At present, there is no other way. Chen Yuan can only try his best to recall some secret places and ruins in the Demon Realm that can quickly improve his strength, and use his knowledge and memories from his previous life to gain the power to cross realms in the shortest possible time.

"Qing'er is a lucky person and will surely be alright."

"Ghost God Ridge... That's right! At this moment, the Demon-Sealing Blade at the foot of Ghost God Ridge should still not have been taken away!"

A determined glint flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes.

"Wait for me, Qing'er, I'll be there soon!"

...

Canglan Star.

Since the news of the Star Alliance meeting with the Heavenly Demon leaked, and then the Heavenly Demon reappeared unharmed in the Imperial City, almost every force had its own deductions.

This inference is certainly not favorable to the current trend of the Star Alliance, but since Gu Yun did not push it from behind, the momentum has not expanded, and everyone is just speculating in secret.

Since someone is willing to let things go, Gu Yun is also willing to accept this favor and not cause trouble. There's no other way; if the Star Alliance were to really unite and attack him, he really wouldn't be able to win.

As for the Canglan Empire, during the days that Gu Yun, the current Heavenly Demon, was in charge, basically no one dared to invade again. The initial protests from the empire also subsided, and everyone gradually got used to the Canglan Empire under Wan Wuhui as the current emperor. In a short time, the entire Canglan Star began to regain its vitality.

During these days, Gu Yun also had some rare respite. While not forgetting to improve his soul, he calmed down and consolidated all the skills he had mastered, especially his latest sword technique, Dragon Tide. He consulted many sword techniques and cultivation methods and improved many of his shortcomings. According to Gu Yun's deduction, his sword technique, Dragon Tide, should be at the Saint level.

The key to mastering a skill lies in its quality, not its quantity. Gu Yun was too lazy to learn other sword techniques. He even had a simple sword sparring session with Zero. Although he undoubtedly lost, he surprised Zero, which made Gu Yun very satisfied. He had only been thinking about it for a short time, while Zero had been practicing for a long time. He was content with what he had.

As for the other Shadow Steps, as well as Balance and Limitless, improving Shadow Steps is quite difficult, but I've become more proficient with it. I'm starting to get the hang of Balance, but I lack some basic ways to acquire power. I should be getting the hang of Limitless soon, and after a few more battles, I should be able to enter the second stage of Limitless.

"Is there something you need me for?"

Gu Yun slowly walked to the top of a palace and looked at Xiao Li, whose strength had clearly improved by leaps and bounds but whose face showed no joy, and asked.

Xiao Li gazed at the endless blue sky in the distance and sighed.

"Brother, at first glance, this world seems no different from our original world. There are all kinds of living things here, and there is chivalry and tenderness. Although there are fewer of them, they are undoubtedly real."

Gu Yun raised an eyebrow, asking curiously.

"What are you trying to say? You're not planning to go back?"

Xiao Li shook his head and explained.

"When I first came into this world, a cold voice flashed through my mind, like an AI voice. At the time, I thought it was a hallucination, so I didn't pay attention to it."

"It only said one word to me."

"five."
