The bubbling blood river beneath Yun Jhin and the red-haired ape started to morph, out of the river two gigantic blood hands rose and tried to clamp on the body of the ape who was trying to go on a rampage.
Yun Jhin chuckled as the hands clamped on the ape's body making it as mobile as it could get, while it was indeed struggling in the grasp of the bloody hands but no matter what it did it couldn't get free.
He closed into the ape's face as he put his hand on its neck and started to crush it slowly making it let out whimpers of pain.
No matter how hard it struggled to try to escape from the gigantic hands which were keeping it bound there nothing worked! It even tried to bite at Yun Jhin's hand which was continuously increasing its grip strength trying to cut Ukog's oxygen supply, while his cultivation returned Yun Jhin only needed to short-circuit again for him to become a 'normal person' again.
His transformation gave him a huge strength boost but in front of Yun Jhin's already impressive strength combined with his home advantage that made him able to make a peak God Realm expert run away, there was no chance for Ukog to even kill himself!
"I'm getting bored of this, while it's a little bit enjoyable to see your pained face it already got old after the first few hours, JUST SPILL IT OUT ALREADY!"
Yun Jhin created a mind shockwave that he inserted into the ape's head expanding it at multiple degrees trying to shake his soul open so he could search through his memories, he was very obstinate to the point that Yun Jhin already got annoyed with him!
"TELL ME WHAT I WANT TO KNOW!"
Yun Jhin words inserted themselves in the primate's brain like they were hot knives as it started to cry out, wanting to clutch his head in pain but couldn't due to the bloody hands keeping him straight as a lamp post.
"This is enough..."
Yun Jhin finally started to crack onto his psyche as the torture reached another level, the ape started to mutter in human language and Yun Jhin remembered everything that it said, all of its memories being transferred to Yun Jhin.
"Hm... I see I see!"
The teleportation technique was a very unique ancient technique that the ape found when he was a child, he found it with Yuan Fang's help and due to that he became one of his cronies, Yuan Fang was an insidious reincarnate one so he easily tricked Ukog into signing a permanent contract with him.
The technique itself wasn't complicated but hard to use, one had to concentrate on the energy codes of the person that they wanted to teleport to, and that meant their energy code had to be perfectly memorized, or else they wouldn't be able to teleport to that person, it also wouldn't work with places and only with people, so if Yun Jhin wanted to teleport from Galaxy to Galaxy and the Galaxy had no living beings that he knew he wouldn't be able to teleport there.
However, the energy consumption of the technique didn't go accordingly with the distance traveled which meant that no matter the distance traveled it would consume the same amount of ki!
But that was depending on the sensing capabilities of the user, Yun Jhin could currently sense around 3 Galaxies distance away which was around a few trillion kilometers in total but that didn't mean he could pick out a certain energy code from the massive amount of living people in these galaxies, while he could focus on one he wouldn't be able to pick it out if they were at the sage realm and below so he could teleport randomly to people if he wanted to as long as he memorized their energy code properly.
Yun Jhin's eyes were sparkling as he looked at the ape in front of him, it seemed that he truly destroyed his psyche as he continued to mutter without stop, he practically became crazy after Yun Jhin was done with him but that didn't mean his psyche was unhealable, for God Realm experts there wasn't such as thing as unhealable!
However he still wanted to know how Duritz had been captured by Yuan Fang's claws, he was a strong monster that was more talented than Yuan Fang himself, his battle power was even a tad higher than his!
He continued to listen to his muttering and when it came to Duritz he immediately listened more closely to understand everything.
"Oh, so that's how it happened?"
Unlike Ukog's situation, Duritz was a very prideful person, he was the prince of a certain newly born race in the celestial realm, Yuan Fang had put a lot of time and work into making Duritz his, he first infiltrated the race and worked his way up the ranks until he became Duritz's trusted advisor, then he poisoned him during a war meeting before asking for his services in exchange for the antidote.
The finer details were omitted as Yuan Fang didn't tell Ukog everything, Ukog was also there at the time and he heard bits and pieces of what happened while he was hiding around the race's auxiliary tribes.
The race's experts were extremely mad at Yuan Fang's treachery so he was chased away into the lower mortal realm, that was the sole reason Yuan Fang wasn't in the celestial realm anymore, after all, from Yun Jhin's knowledge the celestial realm had the best environment for ascension beyond the God Realm.
****************************
Yuan Fang gritted his teeth as he felt his connection to Ukog's soul blurring out, that meant his soul was either extremely damaged or he died!
Duritz didn't say anything as he stood there in their hideout, everything was dark around them and the only two visible people were the two of them.
"Did Ukog spill everything out, Boss?"
Yuan Fang sighed:
"Of course he did, no matter how high his willpower is Yun Jhin's methods are too good, I didn't experience them personally but I heard a lot of things about them, our wheels are officially gone and Yun Jhin had gained a strong chasing ability now amongst with some info that might help him or not..."
Duritz frowned as he asked:
"Do you think he would want to report us to the Sai tribe in the celestial realm?"
Yuan Fang didn't know what to say, Yun Jhin didn't know how to get to the celestial realm previously but he would surely get the way in with Ukog's memories, and you knew the saying, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, while he left to the lower realms to escape the pursuit of the Sai tribe for 'kidnapping and brainwashing' their prince, they only left him alone because he changed his identity and energy code after he arrived in the lower realms.
"Will I have to run in Hell now?"
Yuan Fang frowned as he didn't know that Yun Jhin destroyed the entrance to hell, Duritz interjected:
"Most likely we can't run there boss, you should know that Yun Jhin has the monopoly over the entrance, and going to his headquarters means certain death!"
"We can't even wait it out for the entrance to change coordinates... as I know Yun Jhin he must already raring to go to the celestial realm! But that means he would have to leave his headquarters open, he doesn't know that the connection between avatar and the main body is cut when one arrives in the celestial realm so this could be to our advantage!"
A cut connection between the avatar and body of the God realm expert would reduce the power of the avatar to around 20% of its original.
************************
Yun Jhin waited until there was no more information than he could squeeze out of the poor Ukog before he cracked his neck and absorbed his soul power, now that he had no more uses he could absorb his soul properly as he couldn't get anything more out of him considering that at the God Realm memory extraction through soul absorption wouldn't work at enemies of similar cultivation, the moment someone attempted that their memories would implode and disappear as a self-defense mechanism.
Yun Jhin looked at the ceiling of the cave as he pondered something intensely, he had a hand on his chin as he thought:
"The celestial realm... the realm closest to leaving this wretched mortal life behind... the power of true immortality lies in there... this is most likely the reason Yuan Fang knew about the uses of the two world trees, unfortunately for him, he already used one seed too early and he needs to wait now."
"I guess there's no beating around the bush anymore... if I leave my avatar here everything should be ok, but just to be sure I will teach the defensive mechanism control to Marthon."
Yun Jhin was making preparations to leave the sect behind safely as he had other thoughts after getting his hands on the condition to open the celestial realm gates along with their location!
