CHAPTER 523: CHAPTER 523: NINE NETHER

WHOOSH!

The gigantic, mountainous hand descended, blotting out the sky as it fell.

"Supreme God Sovereign, how dare you attack us Dragon Raisers!" the Dragon Raiser glared furiously, roaring.

He was about to retaliate when he suddenly found his body frozen and immovable.

BAM!

With a single slap, the Dragon Raiser was sent flying.

Before he could even hit the valley wall, Ye Yun beckoned with one hand, and the Dragon Raiser flew back before him.

Observing the blood on the mask, Ye Yun silently nodded. This guy isn’t just a puppet. He’s genuinely flesh and blood.

Back when Ye Yun was in the Black Sky Burial Ground, he had sealed several Dragon Raisers. The reason for sealing them at the time was also fear that when exploring their Primordial Spirit memories, it would trigger the backlash of the restrictions, thereby detonating the Dragon Raisers, and ultimately the loss would outweigh the gain.

Now that he had another Dragon Raiser, Ye Yun could use his Sky Exterminating Phantom Eye to attempt to read his memories. If there are any gains, it would be even better. Even if this Dragon Raiser were to explode and die, I wouldn’t suffer any losses.

CLANK...

The sound of iron chains echoed from underground.

The old Black Dragon raised its head, looking at Ye Yun in absolute disbelief. It never expected that the Supreme God Sovereign from the Supreme Realm would risk offending the renowned Dragon-rearing Clan for its sake. This was simply beyond imagination.

The Black Dragon remained silent, gazing quietly at Ye Yun without a word.

The Dragon Raiser climbed to his feet, his body swaying as he continuously coughed up blood. That terrifying slap had severely wounded him, rupturing his meridians and causing his combat strength to plummet. If I were to receive another slap, I fear I would lose my life... right here and then!

"Supreme God Sovereign, you’re heartless! Once you offend our Dragon-rearing Clan, just wait for your Supreme Forgetful Love Palace to be destroyed, haha!" Wiping blood from his mask, the Dragon Raiser waved his arm, laughing wildly and arrogantly. The Dragon-rearing Clan holds an unimaginably enormous power within the Divine Land. Extinguishing a small entity like the Supreme Forgetful Love Palace would be effortless.

"You’re just a mere errand boy, yet you dare to threaten me? You’re courting death!" Ye Yun sneered.

At this moment, numerous tiny star-like Mysterious Runes appeared in his eyes, and a colossal Power of Life and Death instantly descended upon the Dragon Raiser’s Primordial Spirit.

The moment this power invaded, Ye Yun identified a familiar seal; it consisted of seven extremely small Mysterious Runes arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper.

BANG!

When Ye Yun’s Power of Life and Death touched the seven seal runes, the runes suddenly exploded. The Dragon Raiser’s head was instantly blasted into smithereens.

His entire upper body also exploded into a cloud of blood. Only two legs remained, spurting blood as they fell from mid-air.

Ye Yun smiled faintly. He was already prepared for such a situation.

「Meanwhile.」

In a mysterious hall of the Yoga Master Palace, two figures stared in shock as the Supreme God Sovereign attacked and killed the Dragon Raiser.

Has the Supreme God Sovereign gone mad? How could he dare to attack the Dragon Raisers? Yoga Godlord’s body stiffened, and she mumbled to herself, her beautiful face filled with incredulous horror.

"This Supreme God Sovereign seems to be on the verge of advancing to the Divine King Realm, hence his fearless attitude towards the Dragon Raisers," a man in a Bronze Mask standing next to her said nonchalantly. He was tall and imposing, and his voice was slightly hoarse.

"The Dragon-rearing Clan allegedly has experts at the Divine King Realm. As for this Supreme God Sovereign... he hasn’t broken through to that stage yet. How can he be a match for the Dragon-rearing Clan?" Yoga Godlord’s face tightened, and she scoffed with disdain.

"The Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path practiced by this Supreme God Sovereign originated from the Ancient Star Tomb. As far as I know, some of the higher-ups are curious about the Divine Techniques of the Ancient Clan and how they might flourish among Divine Land Cultivators. Therefore, I don’t believe they would kill this Supreme God Sovereign merely over a minor Dragon Raiser from the Divine Sovereign Realm."

"There’s such a theory? Nine Soul... you’re just a successor of the Nine Soul Emperor. How did you find out about this?" Yoga Godlord’s eyes lit up, and she looked incredulously at the man before her.

This mysterious man wearing the Bronze Mask had quietly entered the Yoga Master Palace two months ago, found her, and claimed to be a disciple of the Nine Soul Emperor.

His Daoist name was Nine Soul. This man named Nine Soul was as powerful as Yoga Godlord, having also reached the peak of the Tenth Layer of the Divine Sovereign Realm.

If the Nine Soul Emperor were still alive, he might have been able to cultivate to this realm. But how could his disciple have cultivated so quickly?

Although Yoga Godlord was doubtful, Nine Soul demonstrated the Seven Star Chaos Technique, which the Nine Soul Emperor had obtained in the Ancient Star Tomb. This convinced Yoga Godlord completely.

Nine Soul’s purpose for the visit was to have Yoga Godlord lure the Supreme God Sovereign from the distant Supreme Forgetful Love Palace to the Yoga Master Palace. Here, he would set up an unparalleled killing formation to assassinate the Supreme God Sovereign and avenge his master, the Nine Soul Emperor.

Nine Soul, of course, narrated to Yoga Godlord how the Supreme God Sovereign had secretly hunted down the Nine Soul Emperor years ago.

Upon hearing this, Yoga Godlord was extremely indignant.

In those years, Yoga Godlord had also harbored affection for the Nine Soul Emperor. Although they never had a romantic relationship, there was an indescribable, subtle, and ambiguous connection between them.

Remembering the Nine Soul Emperor’s death in the Forbidden Zone of the Hidden Dragon, Yoga Godlord naturally wanted to avenge him. Thus, she readily agreed to team up with Nine Soul and went to the Supreme Realm to invite the Supreme God Sovereign.

As for the so-called reappearance of the Ancient Star Tomb, that was entirely her fabrication. Because only by using the Ancient Star Tomb as a pretext could she entice the Supreme God Sovereign to come.

However, what Yoga Godlord hadn’t expected was that Nine Soul’s recent words had somewhat shaken her resolve for revenge.

Who would have thought that the great figures of the Divine Land would care so much about certain Divine Techniques of the Ancient Clan? Could it be... they intend to cultivate the Supreme God Sovereign? If they are cultivating him, how can I take revenge?

"I naturally have my channels. You don’t need to concern yourself with that. Although outsiders cannot kill the Supreme God Sovereign, I can," Nine Soul chuckled coldly, a hint of smugness in his laughter.

Yoga Godlord was startled and quickly asked, "Aren’t you afraid of those great figures in the Divine Land?"

"It doesn’t matter. Killing this Supreme God Sovereign won’t affect the inheritance of the Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path of the Ancient Clan!" Nine Soul declared proudly.

"Why is that?" Yoga Godlord asked curiously.

"The Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path cultivated by the Supreme God Sovereign is not consummate enough. However, Jade Heavenly Venerable of the Supreme Forgetful Love Palace cultivates it to the highest perfection and has the potential to assail the Divine King Realm!

"Therefore, I will report this information. Even if I kill this Supreme God Sovereign today, it will not affect the plans of those great figures," Nine Soul said with a faint smile.

"So that’s how it is. I understand now." Yoga Godlord nodded silently, a peculiar light flickering in her eyes.

Today, the Supreme God Sovereign is undoubtedly doomed to die.

Nine Soul had long ago set up a heaven-shattering killing formation in that valley.

Originally, Yoga Godlord had planned to invite the Supreme God Sovereign to the back mountain, using the pretext of bidding farewell to the dying Black Dragon. But now, the Supreme God Sovereign has unintentionally gone to the back mountain first, making the plan even more perfect.
