…
The ear-piercing scream of the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame was even louder than the sounds of the Sound Beast Mountain’s collapse. It was staying inside of Victor’s head with extreme fear.
Victor’s eyes were gradually losing its vital signs. Deep inside of his pupils had a gloomy bold silver color. It was obvious that the soul of the patriarch of the Gray Wings Clan had been burned and he had lost his life in just a short time.
Leylin felt no shame for his death quite opposite he was glad to borrow the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame hands to deal with this cumbersome fellow. Leylin knows that amongst all the leaders he’s the most volatile and scheming type, not someone who can ever serve Leylin anything good.
Dallas and Yashila both showed their panic when they had seen Victor’s death.
However, the ear-piercing cry of the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame gave the two of them hope. They focused more on Leylin besides them and considered their ancestors’ guidance more seriously.
“By the name of the possesor of immortal blood, the regime of demons and devils shall bow and all heavenly laws shall pay heed!” Leylin coldly shouted while raising his finger with the Blood Vein Ring on, pointing the ring’s surface towards Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame from a distance.
The Blood Vein Ring suddenly emitted the dazzling pink lights. Many flows of the pink lights that were like torrential waves of the sea stormed towards Victor and quickly covered his dead body in just a blink.
Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame didn’t even have time to scream. Leylin poured his indisputable will inside the Blood Vein Ring forcing it to act in his accord, the ring vibrated thunderously and increased its attraction of the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame.
Eventually, the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame turned into a flow of silver lights, flashed up and disappeared into the Blood Vein Ring on Leylin’s finger.
Heaven and Earth Yin aura suddenly stirred up disorderly and could not condense itself anymore.
“Boom Boom Boom”
The Sound Beast Mountain looked like it had just lost its last essential meaning of existence. It was collapsing with the speed that was even several times faster than before.
Leylin didn’t stop thrusting his will inside the Blood Vein Ring even after the flame was sealed rather he pointed it towards the Sky-breaking Shuttle on the stone and put it into the Blood Vein Ring right away and the blood sword levitating in the sky also flew into the ring.
Leylin clenched his hand hard, excited to confine yet another heavenly flame but he didn’t forget the current situation as he gazed above at the blinding halo was projected from the sky, which diffused a flow of extremely violent surging power.
The thunder and thunderbolts were roaming and booming. Rocky stairs suddenly appeared one by one from nowhere, linking up the huge stone platform with the sky. The rocky stairs led to the halos converging in the sky, which was like Heaven Stairway connecting with the ether.
“The Heaven Stairway appears … The ancestors’ guidance. I can’t believe, can’t believe it is true …” Dallas raised his head up to the sky, mumbling to himself with an astonished face. He seemed to have been deeply immersed in some old memories that he looked dazed for a while.
Yashila was also amazed. Her beautiful eyes became brighter. After a moment, she suddenly burst into laughter, guffawed, and laughed until her stomach hurt. She no longer kept her usual delicate manners.
Leylin looked at the two of them with his indifferent eyes, he still didn’t relaxed his Profound Qi quite opposite he was more alerted ready to take action at moments notice and he looked at them vigilantly.
Yashila and Dallas broke from their stupor as they both looked at each other with a suggestive and meaningful gaze. Yashila seems to be telling him something in a secret signal.
Dallas’s sturdy body was shocked. His countenance was extremely complicated.
After contemplating for a while, without bothering about the collapsing mountain or scattering rubble, he suddenly got down on his knees in front of Leylin, bowed his head and said with a low voice, “Dallas, the patriarch of the Black Wings Clan, from now on, I swear to make you my Master. It will never change until death.”
“Yashila, the matriarch in power of the White Wings Clan, swears to make you my Master. It will never change until death.” Yashila, respectfully kneeled down with a serious face and swore.
Leylin still looked indifferent but inwardly he was quite content, finally his plans have come together to form a desired outcome. All these days everyone one of his actions has been an act to sway the minds of these two leaders of pagans tribe in his favour.
These two leaders are the strongest in the Chasm battlefield if they acknowledge him then others would have no choice but to follow.
Of course there is a huge chance that they would choose to not agree and instead paying kindness with malice. But from Leylin understanding of the pagans he knew that his plan has a larger chance of success.
Leylin has already shown them enough powers to make them guarded, he controls two types of heaven flames, he has an unfathomable sword that strikes fear in their very soul. His fighting capabilities are much above his true realm, his cultivation talent is beyond belief.
He has a heavenly treasure like Sky-breaking Shuttle capable of breaking through any restrictions or blockade, he is also the destined one who descended here to free the two tribes, possessing the ability and bloodline of the legendary Immortal God King.
He has freed them, has shown them a chance of survival when all hell broke loose, Leylin is a beacon of hope, the chosen one, a future king a messiah!
“You choose to abide by your ancestors wills and guidance.” Leylin smiled at the two bowing leaders and spoke with no apparent happiness for their allegiance. In actuality, Leylin isn’t very hellbent on having them as his followers, to him as long as they don’t get in his way they can do whatever they desire to.
Obviously he would appreciate them to stick to his side, providing him aid in his conquest for his greater goal but they aren’t an absolute necessity for his future achievements.
“Yes Master, your coming here is the God’s will. We only follow the predestined fate of God.” Yashila revealed a smile, looking at Leylin.
“From now on, you are the Master of our two tribes. We will make the other pagans earnestly follow the ancestors’ guidance.” Dallas eyes flared up a strange light.
“This place is going to collapse. Let’s take the Heaven Stairway first.” Leylin lightly said as he waved for them to stand.
After kneeling down, Dallas and Yashila stood up at the same time, raising their heads looking at the Heaven Stairway piercing up straight to the sky.
“You two please gather everyone and prepare to ascend, as for the matter of other leaders vowing to become my vessels we would discuss later.”
After his words, the two leaders of of the Wings Race got astounded, looking at him with praise and approval for his decision putting safety of the two tribes first.
Leylin looked to a further distance, the vast ground was gradually turning into the void.
It was unknown what changes this space had gone through. However, at this moment, this space seemed to base on some previous orbit, was vanishing little by little. It had started to completely collapse.
The two didn’t waste any time as they immediately gathered other leaders as they flew up to the sky, and descended on the place of their clans. They either shouted or commanded their people.
Not long after that, the pagans of the two tribes started to be convulsive. Everyone lined up as commanded.
“That, that is …” Carina’s beautiful face displayed an insecure feeling while she looked towards Leylin who was standing alone on the Heaven Stairways far from her. She began to worry if she was to be left behind or not.
Through the conversation among Dallas, Yemen Leylin, she somehow figured out something.
Those pagan leaders seemed to respect him very much. Immediately after being made aware of Leylin triumph against Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, and the intention of the two Wing Race leaders the three Demonic Sound Clan leaders didn’t hesitate for long and swear allegiance to Leylin as well.
“We are almost done.” Yashila flapped her white wings and smiled. She came next to Leylin delicately and said gently, “Outside of the mountain, it starts to fall down. I think we should climb up. I am really longing, longing to see our ancestral land where there is the sun, the moon, and the stars. I’ve dreamt about many wonderful things there …”
Yashila said those words full of passion and desire. As she was born in this abandoned land, her knowledge since she was little was all about this land, but the desires were always burning inside of her.
Every member of the Demonic Sound Clan and the Wings Race had a desire of coming home.
“The outside world is really beautiful, I hope it lives up to your people’s expectations but bear in mind, there are tough times before us. The Endless Sea is rather chaotic and I don’t intend to sit in the back burner, the future is mine and in extension yours to take! ” Leylin said with a smile.
Leylin didn’t wait for her response as he climbed up to the end of the stairways. He was the first one who stepped on the cloud of the sky.
Leylin was in the front, Yashila was behind him on the stairways in front of the attentive eyes of thousands of the Demonic Sound Clan’s and the Wings Race’s pagans.
Leylin slowly stepped onto the steps towards the sky, his figure gradually vanished inside of the bright halo, disappearing from this abandoned land.
….
Splash splash splash
Leylin with the five pagan tribe leaders stood atop a large boulder as they oversaw the tribesmen coming out of the Heaven Stairway.
The three demonic sound clan leaders have formally recognized Leylin as their master and he obviously accepted.
Although Leylin knows that three leaders of the Demonic Sound Clan hadn’t been volunteered before and had been forced by Dallas and Yashila to make the vow. He knew that those three people were very arrogant, and the murderous impact of their strong souls on the human society even still, he wasn’t worried because the basis of his reign even back in the Magus World has always been his unshakable overwhelming strength and even now although he isn’t as strong as them, Leylin has full trust in his ability to escape if they decide to turn against him.
From far away, more people kept rising out of the sea. Finally, this was the last group.
While standing with others Leylin kept silent, he didn’t utter a single word just observing everything around him but then suddenly glanced at the far distance. His eyebrows slightly raised.
Those people were of Carina’s group from the Kyara Sea. They were the last ones after the pagans of the Wings Race and the Demonic Sound Clan climbing on the Heaven Stairways. Thus, they had appeared last.
The end of the Heaven Stairway, which was the dazzling point of lights where everyone had just gotten in, was this rocky area.
Until now, Leylin still did not know what area of the Kyara Sea that this place belonged to. But as to what he felt, this place was surely a part of the Kyara Sea.
“Master, those people are your enemies. How should we handle them?” A cruel light beamed out from his eyes.
“Do you want to …?” said Yemen.
“They know a bit too much about us, normally I would have silenced them but currently we are in a precarious position. As I told you before the Endless Sea is in turmoil and we just made the scene more chaotic with our presence, we must pay heed not to become a target and more importantly, we must do our utmost to reap the highest order of immediate benefit.” Leylin shook his head.
“These prisoners of ours are the future leaders of some of the strongest factions in the Endless Sea and they would fetch us a pretty good price. As for the vital leaked information about us, I have already made my mind to enter the Endless sea power struggle so it’s inevitable anyway, we might as well gain some benefits out of it.”
“Master, are the warriors of the Endless dangerous?”
“Yes they most certainty are.. Especially three people who stand at the very pinnacle of this scene.” Leylin looked at Yemen and others saw their doubtful expression.
“I know you are definitely not agreeable, not having contended against them but If targeted by them you are in for a rude awakening.”
Everyone stayed silent for a while, but after a bit of contemplation Yemen looked and Leylin and said, “Master I think you perhaps underestimate our ability based on our performance back in the abandoned land.”
“I beg your pardon?” Leylin eyebrows suddenly raised as he looked at him strangely.
“Master that abandoned land was created so that it could restrain us there. There has always existed an invisible force. Therefore, regardless of either me, Kassius, Dominik, Yashila or Dallas none of us could use our real powers because they were limited in that abandoned land.”
“However, when we arrived here, no such forces could restrain us any further. This feeling is incredibly wonderful. I have just somehow seen that our forces are increasing and it’s just not by a little.” Yemen didn’t look like he was kidding. He said with a serious face. “After having arrived here, we have now become real warriors with our true abilities. Our previous forces should have been repressed one Realm lower than now.”
With a slightly changed countenance, Leylin tried to restrain his feelings of being in a doubt and said with a low voice, “You said, in that abandoned land, your God Realm could only launch forces which were equivalent to those of the Sky Realm warriors?”
Yemen nodded quietly.
Leylin’s eyes flared up a strange light. He nodded, forced a smile and said after a while, “I seem to have undermined your abilities.”
Leylin was smiling but deep inside his head was thinking at a lighting speed, previously he didn’t hypothesized that the pagans are probably suppressed.
Back in the abyss, they weren’t as strong as the God Realm warriors that were told in legends, and thus Leylin wasn’t terrified of them. He has been exposed to God realm powers only once in this life and he immediately classified it as a Morning Star Magus level powerhouse but these people weren’t at that level so he wasn’t as tense.
Leylin didn’t knew that the suppression was actually this severe, it absolutely horrifying to think about. He couldn’t help but reevaluate his newest followers.
Yemen revealed a faint smile, “Master, you don’t need to bother. We could vaguely feel the repressive forces, but we were not sure about it. However, after having gotten out of the sea, we’ve gradually realized that everything is transforming. All of our forces have been quietly enhancing. Since then, we have been more confident about the reasons for changes.”
“I see.. it’s really a new revelation to me.” Leylin glanced at them but he truly didn’t know what’s the extent of their ability, but either way currently Leylin lords over a huge army headed by five powerhouse at Morning Star Magus Level.
If this was Magus World it would have been an intimidating force indeed and even an imaginary one because there is no way five Morning star Magus would accept orders from a weak punk unless of course that said punk is related to an existence they can’t afford to offend.
But the Magus World and Cultivation World is different, the laws are different, the ways of the power system is different as well as the core beliefs of the inhabitants of these two worlds and different cultures.
Magus are inheritly selfish and self-centered, the main element of their success is hardwork, and hustle at a personal level. The main reason for their existence is to unravel the secrets of the world and to seek the supreme truth.
Warriors on the other hand have different sets of morals, their lives and their allegiance is more concentrated towards a society, a group, a faction, a family or a palace whatever the name maybe.. They gain something from that background and contribute to pay them eventually integrating so deeply with the idea that it becomes the sole reason for their life.
Such an devotion can also been seen in Magus World, inside the bloodline families or the knights or the Magus who are nurtured by a big family. The investment and inheritance binds them to contribute and sacrifice for their kins or masters.
Leylin understands this philosophy very well and he has used this ideology vastly in order to create his bloodline regime, to create the great Bloodline Empire overlording all of the Surface Magus World combined with innumerable outside worlds under his rule.
Leylin is a natural leader and a monarch, his regal attitude and blue blood identity is hard to not notice.
After thinking for a while, Leylin suddenly pointed to Carina and gently ordered, “Bring her to me.”
Yashila revealed a smile and flew away. After just a blink, she was already besides her. She grabbed the folds of Carina’s clothes and brought her to Leylin.
“I reckon you want to go home, I suggest you to contact your family and while you are at it also contact the families of others to come here and collect them. Of course I am not running a charity so they must come prepared to pay a price.” Leylin asked with a low voice.
Leylin knew Carina was not the same as the others. She had a lot of treasures, and was also very familiar with the Kyara Sea. Perhaps she has already started to contact her family.
Leylin didn’t wait for her to respond and continued, “Well speaking of coming here.. do you know where this is?”
Carina took out a deep blue crystal ball. Knitting her eyebrows, she stared at that crystal with her beautiful sparkling eyes, carefully checked before shouting astonishingly, “The Hengluo Sea!”
‘Oh….How very amusing. The entrance of the Chasm Battlefield in the Sky Sea is very far from here. To think I am back here to the sea area of the Three Gods Sect, speaking of that I do have unfinished business with them..I can’t have a Marital Spirit like Star Martial Spirit just lying around in my body like an ornament, I should find a way to active it.’
Carina felt strange, shaking her head implicating that she did not know either. She paused for a while before saying, “This is really weird. I don’t know how or why… perhaps it would be related to the Snow Dragon Island nearby. There are also some eccentric places surrounding that island..”
“Okay that’s enough, wherever we are it’s all the same. Take her back, Also start to search any good area around us, and start to settle everyone in. I would be entering seclusion, so don’t disturb me till the negotiations for the prisoners start.”
“Also send a few capable and loyal warriors to Sky Sea, in the Demon Beast forest there near the Gate of Heaven. My mount is waiting for me there.” Leylin suddenly imagined a ferocious and violent creature ransacking amongst the various demon beasts as they all shivered in awe and fear prostating before its might.
Leylin then took out his Fallen Star Pendant and handed it to Yemen, “Tell them to be careful, show this and it would understand.”
