Zhou Qingchen fiercely gritted his teeth. Facing Yun Che's gaze, he never stopped trembling, but he forcefully mustered up three points of unyielding spirit, "All the realms from the Realm of Gods view the Lower Realm's life forms as lowly ants, so killing them would be as if grass was being cut apart. Out of all the realms, only my Eternal Heaven cares, and out of all the emperors, only my Royal Father cares, which is why we would never slaughter anyone from the Lower Realms! If they encounter any accidents, then we do our best to protect them."

"Your homeland... That Lower Realm planet named Blue Pole Star was not destroyed by my Royal Father. It was destroyed by the Moon God Emperor. You were the sole target of my Royal Father!"

If it was someone else, they would have taken a liking to Zhou Qingchen's words and the look in his eyes.

If there were bystanders, they would definitely lament over him. Because no matter what grudge Yun Che had with the Eternal Heaven God Realm, Zhou Qingchen was a thoroughly innocent person. He had never done anything nor participated in anything, as he was only Zhou Xuzi's son.

How innocent and sad... Just like Yun Che's entire family!

"Well said, very well said." Yun Che raised his hand and patted Zhou Qingchen's head, "These words and 'bearing' of being merciful really resembles the old dog from Eternal Heaven. Back then, it was because of these things that I admired him, and I greatly respected him. Especially his' kindness' and 'promise'. I once thought that they were the most sacred and indestructible things in the Eastern Divine Region, tsk tsk..."

"Yun Che!" Qianye Ying'er suddenly opened her mouth, and said in an unfriendly tone, "How should we punish him, hurry up and make your move. Don't waste your time on a piece of trash!"

"..." Zhou Qingchen's pupils fiercely trembled, as he turned his head with much difficulty. The corners of his eyes barely touched Qianye Ying'er's silhouette, "Goddess, you..."

"Trash? He is the dignified Eternal Heaven Crown Prince." Yun Che looked at Zhou Qingchen with a beaming smile. Even under his own resentful light, he could still be unyielding, but Qianye Ying'er's words had nearly shattered all the light in his eyes in an instant.

"Humph!" Qianye Ying'er scoffed coldly. From start to finish, she did not even glance back at Zhou Qingchen, "Other than his status as the Eternal Heaven Crown Prince, what else could he be? He couldn't even be compared to the miserable death of the Moon God Realm's Crown Prince. At least that Yue Xuange still had ambitions and methods, but this person... The son of an old dog, a naive, foolish, and proud little dog that stays aloof from worldly affairs."

"..." Zhou Qingchen's entire body fiercely shook, and his face instantly became deathly white. He tried his best to chase after her shadow, while his gaze became turbid, as countless cracks appeared on his tightly clenched heart.

"As someone who vows to turn the God Realm into a dark hell, you're actually wasting so much words with this kind of trash." Qianye Ying'er sneered, "Is that all you've got?"

Yun Che stared at her, "If you don't stab me a few times today, will you die?!"

"An opportunity that you presented yourself." Qianye Ying'er frowned slightly and said, "Zhu Liu and Tai Yin are dead, so Eternal Heaven will definitely sense something. We can't stay here any longer, hurry up and finish him off!"

"..." Listening to their conversation... Especially Qianye Ying'er's words, the brightness in Zhou Qingchen's eyes and even his soul, seemed to have been ruthlessly broken. Standing there, his eyes lost all color, and he was unable to speak.

Yun Che placed his hand on Zhou Qingchen's head and slowly said, "Brother Qingchen, if a person becomes a Devil, even if one has not done anything, then it would be an evil heresy that cannot be tolerated by the world. Remember what you have said, don't forget it for the rest of your life!"

Bang!

Zhou Qingchen's mind rumbled, as his consciousness completely collapsed before he fainted.

"What are we going to do with him?" Qianye Ying'er casually asked.

Yun Che did not speak. He lifted his palm and separated his five fingers, as a ball of an incomparably deep and dark light condensed at the center of his palm. In an instant, the rays of light surrounding him quickly darkened as if night had descended.

Darkness Everlasting? Qianye Ying'er shifted her gaze... Why did he have to use the power of Darkness Everlasting to torture a small Zhou Qingchen?

And with the power of Darkness Everlasting on Yun Che's body, even she could feel a sense of pressure that was growing deeper and deeper. Obviously, the power of Darkness Everlasting was not something that could be done casually, but rather, it was done with all of his strength.

Several breaths later, the darkness had completely engulfed Yun Che's entire body, and all of the light in the surrounding ten or so kilometers was also almost completely devoured.

At this moment, Yun Che's palm finally descended. The Darkness Everlasting dark light pressed onto Zhou Qingchen's chest, and the unfolding darkness instantly engulfed him.

Qianye Ying'er was puzzled. With Yun Che's current strength, there were ten thousand ways to destroy all of Zhou Qingchen's remains without leaving a single one behind. There was no reason why he would use the darkness on him so easily.

But immediately, she suddenly sensed that in this darkness that was enough to ruthlessly destroy an early stage Divine Master, Zhou Qingchen's body was unharmed and even his energy had not been devoured.

The darkness energy that came from the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor was actually like countless streams of darkness that were slowly flowing into Zhou Qingchen's body, as it was fusing into his skin, bones, meridians, profound veins, organs, and soul...

His strength and consciousness seemed to want to struggle against the pressure, but Yun Che was far stronger than him. Furthermore, the Darkness Everlasting was a devil art at the level of a Devil Emperor, and adding the fact that he was unconscious, then his struggle could only be described as pathetic. In the blink of an eye, all of his will and resistance was completely engulfed by darkness.

Could it be...

He was turning Zhou Qingchen... into a Devil!?

Qianye Ying'er was shocked for a split-second.

Becoming a Devil was certainly not an impossible feat. Under the extreme negative emotions, or by assimilating the extremely pure dark bloodline, one could become a devil in the future. However, the former rarely appeared, while the latter... Forget about this kind of primordial devil blood because even in the Northern Divine Region, it was still extremely rare. With the God Realm's hatred towards Devils, then normal people would not accept to become one.

And other than this, even in Qianye Ying'er's knowledge, she had never heard of any method that could forcefully turn a person into a Devil.

When she became a Devil, she had refined a drop of the Devil Emperor's blood. If she was unwilling, then Yun Che would not even be able to forcefully refine it for her if he wanted to.

But the present Zhou Qingchen was actually so passive... he had been turned into a Devil by Yun Che!?

Darkness Everlasting actually had such a terrifying ability!?

Relatively speaking, Zhou Qingchen's cultivation level was still at the middle stages of Divine Sovereign. Transforming a middle stage Divine Sovereign's profound strength was definitely not an easy feat with Yun Che's current Darkness Everlasting strength, but that distorted pleasure caused his eyes to widen and his fingers to tremble.

Buzz ~~~

Half a quarter of an hour later, the darkness suddenly collapsed and light appeared once more at an extremely fast speed.

The darkness had been dispersed, but only Zhou Qingchen... His body was wrapped in a layer of a faint black light, as it was appearing and disappearing from time to time.

However, this wisp of dark light did not just come from his body and from his profound veins... But even from his soul!

Because the profound strength which he had cultivated for his entire life, had already been forcibly transformed by Yun Che using the Darkness Everlasting into darkness profound strength!

Darkness Everlasting was similar to the Evil God Arts, a power that shouldn't exist in the modern world. What it displayed on Yun Che's body was one terrifying ability after another that exceeded the limits of the realm.

It was unknown how many times Qianye Ying'er had witnessed the terror of the Darkness Everlasting, but after a short period of being stunned, she wasn't that shocked anymore. Instead, she stared at Yun Che for a good while as her lips suddenly curled up, and revealed a mysterious and unfathomable faint smile, "Really is vicious that's worthy of praise."

A dignified Eternal Heaven Crown Prince had become a Devil!

To Eternal Heaven God Emperor and to Eternal Heaven Realm... She couldn't think of a more vicious method!

She couldn't even imagine what kind of brilliant reaction Eternal Heaven God Emperor would have when he sees his most beloved, and also the only son born from his official wife, had become a Devil.

Yun Che grabbed the unconscious Zhou Qingchen and threw him directly into the profound ark that Qu Hui had released.

"Brother Qingchen, I believe you will definitely enjoy the rest of your life." With a push of his palm, the profound ark was forcefully pushed towards the distance by profound energy.

The profound ark had already been imprinted towards a direction by Qu Hui. If there was no accidents, then it would leave the God Realm of Absolute Beginning and fly back to Eternal Heaven God Realm.

Yun Che actually hoped that nothing unexpected would happen to him on his way back.

"Old dog Eternal Heaven, enjoy the first big gift I gave you!"

Watching the profound ark leave his field of vision in silence, Yun Che slowly muttered to himself, "Everything has just begun."

Qianye Ying'er walked to his side and said, "Are you staying here, or returning to the Northern Region?"

If it were not for the matter of the Absolute Beginning Divine Fruit, he and Qianye Ying'er would not have been exposed. But now, with the Divine Fruit in his hands, the God Realm of Absolute Beginning had become a place that they may have to leave behind.

Without a doubt and for a very long period of time, the Eternal Heaven God Realm and all the other realms would be searching within the God Realm of Absolute Beginning with all their might.

And if they were to return to Northern Divine Region, they would also have to face the threat of two King Realms, the Plundered Soul and the Burning Moon King Realm.

"Return to the Northern Region." Yun Che said without hesitation, "Previously, the time was not right, but now... It's about time!"

"Oh?" Qianye Ying'er said with a smile that was not really a smile, "Is it because of the Savage World Pellet?"

Currently, the Savage Divine Pith and the Absolute Beginning Divine Fruit were already in his hands, and the "Savage World Pellet" from the legends and records could be refined from these two.

"Savage World Pellet" originally came from the records of the Primordial Era of the Gods. At that time, the people had thought that it existed, but was lost in the records, so it was impossible for it to appear in the modern world.

However, ever since the Eternal Heaven Grand Ancestor succeeded in refining the Savage World Pellet, and rose to the skies in a single step with the help of this pellet and to lead the Eternal Heaven Realm to become a great King Realm, it had become a miracle that all profound practitioners yearned for, but never dared to truly hope for.

Whether it was the Savage Divine Pith or the Absolute Beginning Divine Fruit, obtaining one was a gift from the heavens, and not to mention two of them.

If the Savage World Pellet was really as miraculous as the legends said, then...

"Otherwise?" Yun Che asked back expressionlessly.

"You seem to be happy too early." Qianye Ying'er said, "The Absolute Beginning Divine Fruit is in my hands now, but you seem to not care at all. Are you that confident that I will return it to you?"

Yun Che looked at her and said, "That Savage World Pellet is already half yours, so you don't need to use such a despicable method."

"..." Qianye Ying'er fiercely rolled her eyes as the light in her eyes instantly froze. She then said, "Do you know what kind of divine object the Savage World Pellet is?! Will you really give me half of it? Do you think I'm some kind of naive idiot like Zhou Qingchen!? "

"In the Wood Spirit Royal Family's memories, there are records of the Savage World Pellet." Yun Che's expression remained calm, "Shen Xi had also specifically mentioned it to me before. Therefore, my understanding of the Savage World Pellet should far surpass yours."

Qianye Ying'er: "..."

"My Sky Poison Pearl Spirit knows the method to refine the Savage World Pellet in its entirety. The Savage World Pellet that is about to appear in my hands, and with the help of the Sky Poison Pearl's tempering, the pellet that had once appeared in the history of the the God Realm cannot be compared. Even if it is only half of it, its divine power will far surpass it!"

"So what?" Qianye Ying'er narrowed her beautiful eyes, "There is no one who can resist the temptation of the Savage World Pellet. Especially you, who even dreamed of revenge. I don't believe you'll give me half of it!"

"As my tool, you have no right to question my words!" Yun Che's voice turned slightly cold, "Also, you seem to have forgotten one thing."

"My profound strength can rival the Divine Master realm when it erupts, but my profound veins is still only at the Divine Sovereign realm after all. It's fundamentally impossible for me to withstand the medicinal power of the Savage World Pellet right now, but you can."

"This time, after we return to the Northern Divine Region, I plan on directly looking for the legendary 'Devil Empress' to cooperate with me." Yun Che's eyes flashed slightly, "In order to have enough security and 'chips', I have the best and only method at the moment, and that is to use the Savage World Pellet to forcefully raise your cultivation level... What do you think?"

Qianye Ying'er and Yun Che looked at each other. After a moment, she slowly said, "Earlier, you had been suppressing my profound strength to the point where you feared that I could leave your control. If my cultivation level surpasses you, you aren't afraid... that I'll kill you with a backhand!"

"That was before." Yun Che casually raised his hand, as the dark light on his palm flashed and black fog appeared on Qianye Ying'er's body, which cased her aura to also be in disorder, "As a cauldron for me to refine the devil blood and cultivate the Darkness Everlasting, and under the power of my current Darkness Everlasting, do you really think that... Is there any chance that you can escape my control?"

Qianye Ying'er laughed very lightly, and said, "Heh, I had thought that you would at least be angry... What a disappointing and boring gamble. Your argument is very good, and it looks like I don't have much choice or fight for it."

With a flip of her delicate hand, the Absolute Beginning Divine Fruit was caught between her fingers as it released a strange starlight.

However, she did not throw it to Yun Che. Instead, she gathered the jade finger in her hand and held it in front of her, "Aside from the Savage Divine Pith, this Divine Fruit... Isn't it a bit too easy that we got it?"
