Boom...
The Heavenly Soldier's body instantly collapsed under the divine sense attack, its cloud-like flesh turning to dust. Simultaneously, the spiritual energy in the entire world became even more terrifyingly chaotic. Some of it, under Ye Yun's divine sense, ignited like gasoline, and the whole world flipped and tumbled under this unrest.
"Human! How can your divine sense be so powerful!" the spirit's weak voice echoed throughout the world. The Heavenly Soldier was shattered by the divine sense, and it also sustained considerable damage. For it, divine sense attacks were the most fatal.
All along, it had used hidden forces to monitor the Ten Directions Heavens. Once it detected a strong individual whose divine sense exceeded the third realm, it would order these hidden forces to spare no effort in killing them. Therefore, it had always believed that no one in the Ten Directions Heavens could threaten it.
But today, not only was it threatened, but it was also injured by the opponent's divine sense.
"Already injured?" Ye Yun sneered. His divine sense formed a storm within the world, and a black hole over a thousand zhang in diameter suddenly appeared. The chaotic spiritual energy of this world immediately seemed to have found a vent, and all of it was swallowed by Ye Yun.
Even the mineral veins buried deep underground were uprooted by this terrifying suction and then swallowed section by section into Ye Yun's dantian.
"Human!! What do you want to do!" The spirit, seeing the mineral veins being swallowed, immediately panicked.
"What do I want to do? Aren't you watching?" Ye Yun laughed heartily. Sword shadows, exceeding the laws of swordsmanship, shot out from his hands, piercing thousands of zhang into the ground, severing all the mineral veins buried beneath, and then pulling them out of the ground.
The mineral veins here were all legendary Dragon Veins, which had converged the Dao of Heaven and the Dao of Fortune. Ye Yun estimated that the reason humans became overlords of the Tenth Universe in ancient times was absolutely related to these Dragon Veins.
Ye Yun's dantian, having undergone multiple major changes, was now gradually evolving into a complete world. These Dragon Veins could provide some assistance in the birth of the Dao of Heaven and the Dao of Fortune within his dantian world.
Each Dragon Vein contained immeasurable spirit stones, and these were not the spirit stones materialized in the game. Based solely on the amount of spiritual energy contained, the spirit stones in the Dragon Veins were at least ten times more potent than those materialized in the game.
"What is this? How can it be so powerful!!" Sword shadows churned throughout the world. The spirit's already weak voice now carried a hint of fear.
Having existed for countless years, it had seen no end of powerful beings. But it had never encountered something that transcended laws.
Throughout history, the spirit had witnessed countless Great Emperors and the geniuses of all races. Yet, not a single one of these peerless geniuses had been able to transcend the laws.
Ye Yun paid no heed to the spirit's shouts. He continued to devour the Dragon Veins section by section and transplant them into his dantian. As Ye Yun transplanted more and more Dragon Veins, the spiritual energy in this world rapidly diminished.
"Stop! Human, you stop this at once."
With the spiritual energy depleted and the Dragon Veins stolen, the Kunlun Mirror's spirit could no longer hold back its panic. Spirit artifacts, spirit artifacts, spirits, these required the constant nourishment of spiritual energy over the years. With sparse spiritual energy, their evolution would be indefinitely prolonged. And if there were no spiritual energy at all, let alone evolution, they might even fall in rank under the erosion of endless time, eventually turning into dust.
Unfortunately, Ye Yun completely ignored its roars. Although the spirit of this world was powerful, Ye Yun was not worried. His divine sense was sufficiently strong; as long as the spirit dared to manifest, he could completely obliterate its consciousness and return the Kunlun Mirror to the human race.
"Human, if you don't stop, don't blame me for releasing the accumulated malevolent energy of the Kunlun Mirror over countless years!" Seeing that Ye Yun was ignoring it, the spirit couldn't help but threaten.
As an existence of consciousness, it dared not appear within its own internal space for fear of being annihilated by Ye Yun's divine sense. However, it could not control the Kunlun Mirror to attack Ye Yun, as this was within the Kunlun Mirror's internal space. Thus, the spirit appeared utterly helpless.
Every weapon and armor, through the master's conquests, would be eroded by the blood of various enemies. Accompanied by the master's killing intent, over time, it would form malevolent energy that could not be released from within the weapon. As time accumulated, the malevolent energy within the weapon would reach a critical point, until it directly exploded the weapon.
The difference between a spirit artifact and an ordinary weapon was that it possessed a certain tolerance for such malevolent energy, and once a spirit was born, it could even help the spirit artifact expel this malevolent energy.
Given the accumulated malevolent energy of the Kunlun Mirror, if it were truly unleashed, the beings of an entire star system would suffer its corruption, becoming mindless beings driven only by slaughter.
"If you think this can threaten me, then you are truly mistaken! Why don't you release it and see?" Ye Yun said with a cold laugh.
The malevolent energy of the Kunlun Mirror might turn other quasi-emperors into tools of slaughter, but Ye Yun, possessing a sixth-realm divine sense, would not be affected by such malevolent energy in the slightest. Most importantly, the Kunlun Mirror's hiding place was definitely not within the territory of the Ten Directions Empire. Therefore, even if the spirit released the malevolent energy within, only the people of the Futian Empire would die.
Possessing a sixth-realm divine sense and having already mastered space, Ye Yun had thoroughly investigated his own territory countless times.
For the spirit, the malevolent energy within the spirit artifact was its last resort for self-preservation. Of course, it could also induce the spirit artifact to self-destruct, but if the spirit artifact self-destructed, the spirit itself would also perish.
"Fine, fine! You're forcing me! Once the malevolent energy erupts, the karma for the deaths of billions upon billions of beings in a star system will be counted against you!" Dark clouds churned in the sky, transforming into a ferocious face. Simultaneously, endless malevolent energy began to permeate the entire world.
The thousand-zhang black hole suddenly expanded, and infinite spiritual energy along with sections of Dragon Veins were devoured by Ye Yun at an even faster rate.
"Karma? What a terrifying title." Ye Yun sneered. Since embarking on the path of the emperor, whose battlefield had not accumulated the karma of fallen beings? Moreover, the void storm caused by Ye Yun's first professional advancement had annihilated all the planets in an entire star system and all the beings upon them. Would he be afraid of this?
At this moment, above the Spiritual Sea of the First Planet, the winds and waves suddenly surged. A dazzling golden light shot up from the seabed, instantly drawing the attention of all cultivators in the entire star system.
The golden light blazed like the sun. Just as all the cultivators hadn't reacted, the golden light suddenly spewed out countless black mists. Within the mists were countless mournful screams, like devils, heading towards the surrounding planets...
