Chapter 104: Devil Origin Orb

Chapter 104: Devil Origin OrbA few weeks had passed since the grand wedding between Yun Wuji and Huan Caiyi.

In the Yun Palace, which had been moved from the Illusory Demon Realm back to the Profound Sky Continent, this time placed at the edge of the Snow Region of Extreme Ice.

Yun Wuji sat cross-legged in his training room, In his hand, he held a purple crystal that shimmered faintly in the dim light.

The energy from the crystal flowed steadily into Yun Wuji's profound veins as he absorbed it.

Generally speaking, whether it was Purple Veined Heaven Crystals, Purple Veined Divine Crystals, or even Purple Profound Jade, all of them contained vast amounts of energy. However, most cultivators in the God Realm didn't use them to improve their cultivation. The reason was simple, the absorption speed was painfully slow, and the efficiency varied greatly depending on a cultivator's innate talent. For most, the effort wasn't worth the reward.

So, in the God Realm, most people used these crystals to power formations or profound arks instead.

However, Yun Wuji could absorb them effortlessly and at an incredible speed, thanks to the Law of Nothingness. The most basic ability of this law was the seamless absorption of all energies.

After spending over a month comprehending the Law of Nothingness, Yun Wuji had mastered using it to draw energy from even the profound Purple Veined Divine Crystals.

Unfortunately, he lacked the other two parts of the Law of Nothingness, which greatly hindered his speed in comprehending it. Otherwise, he would have been able to absorb the energy from Profound Cores of Beasts, which would have been far more efficient.

After all, hunting beasts was far easier than searching for divine crystal mines.

Although Yun Wuji's talent was almost frightening, the Law of Nothingness was the highest law in the universe, it wasn't something he could fully comprehend from just a fragment in the span of a month.

He didn't have some cheat-like system that could randomly level up his abilities with a click. Clack!

The profound energy continued to flow into Yun Wuji's veins for a short while longer. Then, with a soft clack, the crystal in his hand cracked and shattered. As the fragments fell to the ground, they disintegrated into fine dust, scattering silently across the floor.

Boom!

At that exact moment, within the world of his profound veins, an explosion erupted. Profound energy surged violently, shattering the bottleneck that had held him back. With this breakthrough, Yun Wuji advanced to the 11th level of the Sky Profound Realm.

Yun Wuji opened his eyes, and an invisible shockwave erupted from his body, obliterating the ground beneath him. Searᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

As he stood up, a faint smile played on his lips. It had only taken him a few days to break through, and he hadn't even put in much effort, most of his time had been spent with his women.

"Master, did you break through? But it's strange... You were already at the 10th level of the Sky Profound Realm, yet even after breaking through, I can still sense you're still within the Sky Profound Realm," the Evil Infant materialized, floating around Yun Wuji with a bewildered expression. Her pitch-black eyes darted over him, clearly puzzled. "I can't understand...what is going on?" she asked, her voice filled with curiosity and confusion.

"That's something you don't need to concern yourself with," Yun Wuji replied calmly, sidestepping the Evil Infant's question. Instead, he shifted the topic. "How is the recovery of the Sky Poison Pearl?" he asked.

"Reporting to Master," the Evil Infant replied with a respectful tone, "the Sky Poison Pearl is gradually recovering its strength. However, due to the murky and thin aura of the current Primal Chaos, it will take a few more years before it can unleash powerful poisons like the Heaven Wounding Thought Severing Poison."

"Hmm, that's good to hear," Yun Wuji nodded, satisfied with her response. Reaching out, he gently patted her tiny head and said with a faint smile, "I'll cook something for you as a reward then."

"Yay- I love you, Master!" the Evil Infant cheered, her tiny body bouncing with excitement. She leaped toward Yun Wuji, wrapping her small arms around his head, her petite body nearly covering his face as she hugged him tightly.

"Alright, I know you're happy, but don't cover my face like that," Yun Wuji said, gently pulling her off his face. Holding her in one hand, he started walking out of the room with a calm stride.

"Hmm," the Evil Infant nodded obediently, her small head bobbing up and down. Floating beside him, she followed while humming a cheerful tune.

Watching the Evil Infant act like an innocent child, Yun Wuji couldn't help but feel uncertain. Was this truly her nature, or was she merely putting on an act? He had been observing her closely for some time now, yet he didn't get any clue.

Yun Wuji chose to make the Evil Infant the spirit of the Sky Poison Pearl because, even if the Evil Infant were to someday break free from his control, the consequences of it controlling the Sky Poison Pearl would not differ much from not having it at all.

Evil Infant breaking free = world destruction.

Evil Infant + Sky Poison Pearl = total extermination of all life forms + world destruction.

So, in essence, it didn't matter whether the Evil Infant took control of the Sky Poison Pearl or not, because, in both scenarios, the primal chaos would be doomed.

Walking out of the room, Yun Wuji made his way to the kitchen, casually preparing something to eat. He handed it to the Evil Infant, who immediately began humming and jumping around happily, her joy lasting for quite a while.

This was a deliberate act on Yun Wuji's part, intended to make her more submissive and bind her to him. Although he wasn't certain if it would be effective, her current actions seemed to suggest that she genuinely liked his food.

After feeding the Evil Infant, Yun Wuji returned to his courtyard. He walked past his room and entered an underground secret chamber. Activating a formation, he stepped into a dark room. The moment he entered, a flash of light illuminated the area, revealing the hidden space.

The room was not large, only a few hundred meters in width. The ground was covered with countless obscure inscriptions that stretched across the floor, up the walls, and all the way to

the ceiling.

Yun Wuji walked silently to the center of the room, where a hole was carved into the ground. He placed the Sky Poison Pearl inside, and with a soft click, it fit perfectly into place.

Afterward, he calmly made his way to the north side of the room.

There was a gray box, resembling a stone coffin, but without a lid.

Inside the coffin lay a headless body, its proportions strange and unnaturally large, standing at 5 meters tall. The skin was a dull gray. It was the body of the Moon Slaughter Devil

Sovereign.

"Let's begin," Yun Wuji muttered, injecting his profound energy into the formation. Instantly, the inscriptions on the walls flared to life, glowing with a dark light. At the center of the formation, the Sky Poison Pearl radiated a vivid green light shining in the midst of the black light that filled the room.

At the same time, the coffin began to vibrate, its surface lighting up with an intense black

glow.

Sweat began to form on Yun Wuji's forehead as he controlled the formation.

After destroying the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region, Yun Wuji took the Eternal Night Devil

Sword and interrogated the devil's soul inside, which was the soul of the Moon Slaughter

Devil Sovereign's son.

This formation was something Yun Wuji had created using the formations and techniques he obtained from the devil's soul as references.

When Yun Wuji was first born into this world, he immediately began planning how to become stronger in the fastest way possible, using his knowledge of the future and the resources

available to him.

After years of careful planning, he devised a strategy that, if followed, would allow him to reach the peak of this world and look down on all living beings in the shortest time possible.

Unfortunately, at that time, he was too naive and forgot that some canon events could not be

changed.

Shortly after he grew up, he experienced his first loss in this world, his master and adoptive

father died.

This threw off all his plans, and for a long time, he had to stay on the run. However, after gaining enough strength, he adjusted his plans and began implementing them.

Taking the divine inheritances, helping the Illusory Demon Realm, and taking down the Four Sacred Grounds were all part of his larger plan. But his main goal, the one that had been his true focus all along, was the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest.

He not only wanted the World-Defying Heaven Manual and the Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations, but Yun Wuji also had his sights set on the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign.

And no...it wasn't because he was gay.

Specifically, not the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign himself... but his body, his body is an invaluable treasure!

He was the only true devil still alive in this era, aside from the 300 who had been exiled from

the primal chaos.

As long as the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign absorbed enough dark profound energy, he would gradually recover his strength at an astonishing speed. There was even a chance for him to surpass the limits of the current primal chaos and return to the True God Realm, though the likelihood of that happening was slim.

When Yun Wuji killed him, his intention was to extract the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign's power and use it for himself. And now, the question was, how to do it?

Well, since this guy was a devil, achieving this goal was much easier than if he had been a god.

But why?

The answer is the Devil Origin Orb!

When the devils of the Primordial Devil Race are first gestating in their mother's womb, they

begin as a Devil Origin Orb. From there, the orb gradually forms the devil's body, soul, and the devil god's origin energy. In other words, the Devil Origin Orb is the very source of a devil's life, soul, and power!

If the Devil Origin Orb of a Devil God is destroyed, the Devil God can take over another Devil

God's Devil Origin Orb. Through a unique method, they can assimilate the new orb into their own profound veins, thereby regaining their power.

Yun Wuji devised a plan based on the information he had. He wanted to refine this body and create a set of profound veins with the Devil Origin Orb at its core.

In theory, whoever obtains these profound veins would not only inherit the remaining strength of the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign but would also be able to restore his strength and potentially raise their realm back to the True God Realm.

Naturally, the chances of reaching the True God Realm in the current primal chaos are slim. However, with the right cultivation environment, he would almost certainly reach the Divine Master Realm, or even surpass it, in a very short time.

As time passed, Yun Wuji's face grew paler, and the intense black light emitted from the coffin deepened, enveloping the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign's body. The darkness became thickening, like pure dark blood, which continued to condense as it shrank in size around the body, forming into a dense mass.

At the same time, the entire formation and room continued to tremble, and Yun Wuji began to feel his energy depleting. His face grew even paler, sweat pouring from his brow, and his body trembled with the strain.

This went on for what felt like an eternity, until finally, Yun Wuji collapsed, stopping the formation as he knelt heavily on the ground, his body trembling from the overwhelming strain.

"Master! Are you alright?!" The evil infant appeared in a flash, her tiny hands grasping Yun Wuji's trembling body, her expression filled with worry as she looked up at him, concern etched across her face.

"Hmm, I am just a bit exhausted," Yun Wuji said softly, shaking his head. With the evil

infant's help, he slowly got to his feet, his body still trembling slightly. He steadied himself

before making his way toward the coffin.

Inside the coffin, the body was no more. Instead, there was a drop of dark blood the size of a baby's fist, pulsating with a dark light.
