Upon entering the Thousand Desolations Divine Cult, a formless pressure pressed down on them.

Compared to an ordinary sect, the atmosphere here was very solemn. With a single glance, he saw several types of people wearing different colored gowns. They were closely guarding the area, and their eyes were all filled with power as they remained motionless.

"If you want to enter, isn't it better if you enter with invisibility yourself?" Qianye Ying'er said.

She knew exactly what would happen if she showed her true face. Back then, when she was still not used to wearing a mask to hide her face, all the men who saw her, from an ordinary person to a God Emperor, had revealed all sorts of terrible expressions.

Her disdain and disgust towards men had also gradually formed during this process.

"Do you really think that I am only here to destroy this Thousand Desolations Divine Cult for the sake of Yun Shang?" Yun Che said coldly.

"For the resources, right?" Qianye Ying'er's jade lips slightly pursed, "Of the two, which one is 'convenient'?"

For Yun Che to break through to the first level of the Divine Sovereign from the first level of the Divine King Realm in less than a year, the greatest assistance he received was the last divine power bestowed to him by the Ice Phoenix Divine Spirit.

If it was just training, who knew how many years it would take.

Now, Yun Che had reached Divine Sovereign. Upon arriving of such a realm, even if his talent was unrivaled, every time he broke through, he would still need to put in an extremely great amount of effort and time... Even if every small realm only needed ten years to break through that would shock everybody, he, who was filled with hatred, would definitely not be willing to stay in seclusion for such a short period of time.

The Nihility Principle that he had vaguely comprehended allowed him to directly convert the Profound Dao's spiritual energy into his own cultivation base, which was a without a doubt a heaven-defying strength.

As long as there were enough profound crystals, his rate of improvement would far exceed ordinary cultivation, and would not be difficult or dangerous.

But the prerequisite, was that he had to have enough profound crystal!

The profound crystal and profound jade that he had plundered from the Nine Glories Heavenly Palace had only assisted him in breaking through to the Divine Sovereign Realm, but his energy consumption had dropped by thirty percent. Furthermore, the amount of energy required to raise a profound practitioner's cultivation realm was many times greater than that of someone in the Divine King Realm...
Moreover, due to the special nature of his profound veins, his breakthrough was much more difficult than normal profound practitioners.

Hence, other than borrowing the power of Qianye Yinger's fusion with her devil blood and cultivating his Darkness Everlasting, the thing he needed to do the most was to use all means at his disposal to obtain an extremely large amount of resources!

Although the Thousand Desolations Divine Cult beneath his feet had a relatively shallow history, it was still a large Realm King sect of a High-Rank Star Realm. If it could grab all its resources, it would undoubtedly be a huge help to Yun Che.

But the difficulty was so great that it was probably not too far off from annihilating the entire Thousand Desolations Divine Cult.

"Below my feet, there is a large offensive profound formation. I sense that there are more than three thousand array veins." Yun Che suddenly said, "If it is triggered, I won't die, but you will definitely die."

As his Darkness Everlasting progressed, his perception to the darkness profound strength also became incomparably sensitive.

A huge power would have its own trump card. The gigantic hidden attack profound formation below should be the last and most frightening barrier of the Thousand Desolations Divine Cult. If it was forced to activate, it would definitely shake the world.

But on the other hand, if this enormous profound formation was to be destroyed, and the power accumulated within it was forcefully channeled...

"Heh, then I truly thank you." Qianye Ying'er coldly snorted in disdain, "What are you planning to do with me?"

"There's no need to do anything." Yun Che said, "It's enough to just obediently stand there. Naturally, there would be people who will take the initiative to offer up this opportunity for us... And it would be the most perfect opportunity."

"And if you fail?"

"Then I'll just force it." Yun Che didn't feel the slightest bit of fear. He suddenly reached out and pinched Qianye Ying'er's exquisite chin, looked at her face and said, "And I don't think I will fail... Beautiful girls are something that will cause different reactions from men to different degrees. "

"Some would look sideways, some would bewitch their souls, some would concede their life for that desire, and some would lose their mind and make them go crazy. Which do you think you are?"

With a "pa" sound, Yun Che's hand was fiercely opened by Qianye Ying'er and she sneered, "My, this tool is really useful!"

"However, there is one thing you need to remember." Qianye Ying'er squinted her eyes, a cold intent pierced through her heart, "If anyone is too 'crazy', no matter who it is, if anyone dares to touch the corner of my clothes, I will definitely not endure, I will definitely break them to pieces and turn them into a corpse on the spot! Who cares what plans you have!"

"Do you understand?!"

"..." Yun Che looked at her and suddenly let out a low laugh, "Right now, I still like that look of yours that hates men."

Qianye Ying'er, "?"

— —

Because Yun Che had deliberately delayed for time, by the time they had arrived at the Thousand Desolations Crown Prince Palace, the Crown Prince's birthday feast had already begun.

In front of the hall door, Yun Che and Qianye Yinger's eyebrows moved at the same time.

There was a large number of Divine Sovereigns in the hall, including an entire four peak Divine Sovereigns. However, there was not any Divine Master aura.

The Thousand Desolations Cult Master isn't here?

Without a doubt, the Thousand Desolations Crown Prince's 6000 age birthday feast was something big enough to shake the entire Thousand Desolations Realm. As the Thousand Desolations Cult Master and the father of the Crown Prince, he was the person who should have been present the most.

There was even a high chance that he should have been the person to be the overseer, but he had repeatedly confirmed that the palace did not have the aura of a Divine Master.

Although he didn't know the reason, at the moment, it didn't seem like a bad thing.

"Eastern Region's Bai Clan has arrived!"

Thousand Desolations Crown Prince, the future Thousand Desolations Realm King's 6000 age birthday, will undoubtedly bring great gifts from all directions to congratulate him. Very few would dare to arrive too late... As for the "Eastern Region Bai Clan," it was obvious that they did not have the qualifications to be late.

Before Yun Che even stepped in, a cold snort that was not concealed in the slightest sounded, "The Bai Family has been getting weaker and weaker for the past few years, and it is said that they are about to fall into the second tier at the Eastern Region. However, this arrogance is getting bigger and bigger. Even Your Highness Crown Prince's 100 year birthday feast is a matter of great importance, and to dare to be simply this late is absurd!"

The one who spoke was a middle-aged man sitting at the side. He was not familiar with the Bai Clan and he did not have any old grudges with them, but he was the first to take the task to speak several words... He was actually a horse buttocks racket to the Thousand Desolations Crown Prince.

Offending a small Bai Clan clan, who was seeking the favor of the Thousand Desolations Crown Prince? If that wasn't a loss, why wouldn't he do it?

Immediately after he said that, sounds of agreement echoed out.

"Indeed, this is too outrageous."

"We were all full of excitement as we arrived a few days early. The fact that the Bai Clan was able to be invited is a great kindness. How dare they arrive late?"

Sitting at the main seat of the main hall, the Thousand Desolations Crown Prince had a faint smile on his face. He was noncommittal towards the denouncement of the crowd as he casually glanced in the direction of the main hall door... And just from this glance, it was as if something had ruthlessly struck his brain. It was as if his soul had suddenly been seized by a devil. His eyeballs and every part of his body were firmly fixed there.

At the same time, the reprimand from within the hall suddenly stopped. The ruckus turned into an almost terrifying silence.

Yun Che walked in with large strides, but no one's gaze stopped on him, so much that they didn't even notice him... That was because the light in everyone's eyes from the Heaven and Earth had gathered on the woman behind him.

Back then, when Yun Che first saw Qianye Ying'er's true face, the instant he came back to his senses, the first mind that surged up in his heart was "frightening"... Her existence could erase all the light that a person could see in their entire lives, and could even erase all reason and willpower.

Especially her golden eyes. Even if they didn't contain any emotions, they were like an insane abyss of gold, causing one to be willing to sink into eternal damnation, even if it meant dying a thousand or ten thousand times.

This kind of scene, was what Qianye Ying'er had seen many times before. Even if it was a God Emperor, he would still reveal a completely infatuated expression in front of her. Since she was only a little more than ten years old, the men of this world had always been lowly inferior lives in her eyes.

But unfortunately, she who was like this, had been reduced to allowing a man to toy with her... Not only her, anyone from the three Divine Regions would have no way of knowing that the high and mighty Brahma Goddess, who no one would even look up to and blaspheme, would have such a "fate".

Yun Che stood firmly in the hall, and said loudly, "Eastern Region's Bai Qi from the Bai Clan congratulates the Thousand Desolations Crown Prince on his 6000 age birthday. As I met with an unforeseen event along the way, I came late. I beseech the Crown Prince to punish me."

Under the rather deafening sound, it was as if a dream had scattered. The breath that had been held in for a long time also came back at this time, only that it became somewhat chaotic. Whether it was the young people who were not yet sixty, or the overlords that had a lifespan that had exceeded ten thousand years, all of them were like this.

After Yun Che spoke, there was no one inside the palace to respond for a long time. At this moment, the Thousand Desolations Crown Prince stood up from the main seat. His movements were incomparably slow and stiff. His eyes were fixed straight ahead, like a puppet with its strings pulled.

He was not an ordinary profound practitioner, but a Crown Prince of the Thousand Desolations Divine Cult. In his entire life, he had never revealed such an expression.

"Cough, cough!" A light cough suddenly came from beside his ears. The light cough had directly shaken the mind and soul, causing the Thousand Desolations Crown Prince to suddenly become more clear-headed.

This old man was the Thousand Desolations Divine Cult's Vice Cult Master, Daoist Sunflower/Shen Kui, the second strongest person in the Thousand Desolations Divine Cult, at the peak of Divine Sovereign.

"Oh... Heh, hehe." The Thousand Desolations Crown Prince's face twitched, but he couldn't put on his usual calm demeanor, "So it's because... It was... is..."

"It's the Bai Family brat." Daoist Shen Kui transmitted his voice and once again used his voice to clear his soul. Even he did not dare to look at Qianye Ying'er twice. Before this, he had long treated women as red skeletons, and had not been close to them for a whole ten thousand years.

"It is the Bai Family... The Young Master from the Bai Family." The Thousand Desolations Crown Prince's mind was finally dragged back to less than half of his original state after Daoist Shen Kui had used his voice twice to clear his soul. It was also at this moment that he realized he had stood up.

He, the Thousand Desolations Crown Prince, stood up to welcome the Bai Clan. This scene was truly...

"Here, take a seat." Daoist Shen Kui shouted.

"Uh, this..." Yun Che did not walk forward to pay his respects, but a clearly troubled expression appeared on his face.

"What is it? Could it be that the congratulatory gift was robbed on the way?" Daoist Shen Kui coldly snorted and said... But when he spoke, he lowered his head and closed his eyes, not daring to look at Qianye Ying'er in a daze.

"No, no," Yun Che hurriedly said, "My Bai Clan has obtained an invitation to Your Highness Crown Prince's 6000 age birthday feast. It is a great fortune for the whole clan, how could we dare come empty-handed? However... The clan ordered for this present to be given to Your Highness Crown Prince in private. "

As he spoke, his gaze seemed to be unintentional, and nervously glanced at Qianye Ying'er.

Although it was just a slight movement, the crowd still understood what was going on. The Thousand Desolations Crown Prince's butt that was just sitting down suddenly shot up, his lips actually started trembling violently, "Oh... Oh! So that's how it is... Aha... Hahaha, the fact that the Bai Clan was able to come was already something that they had done with all their hearts. The congratulatory gift was actually not too important. Oh right, I don't know who this is... What's the name of this girl? Is she a member of the Bai Clan?"

He could feel the distortion of his tone and the trembling of his voice. He could even feel his current appearance could be said to be "ugly", but he could not control it, and he did not even have the time to pay attention to it... In his heart, there was only scorching heat, agitation, and excitement... He was so excited that he felt like he was going insane.

This kind of attitude, was far worse than what Yun Che had expected.

After all... Beside him, was the Brahma Goddess!
