Chapter 890: Entering the Empire of the Netherworld
Chu Yuan grasped the immortal blood, his expression cold and stern as he infused origin forces into it, seemingly calculating something.
"The strong ones from the other shore fled, leaving behind the immortal blood!"
The dripping immortal blood pierced through time and space, falling down, causing the elder's heart to tremble.
The world had become chaotic.
All sorts of powerful figures had emerged.
The appearance of the other shore meant that a new round of slaughter had begun.
It was unknown how many immortals would die when the time came.
He also sighed lightly.
Could he continue to slumber peacefully in the Divine Tomb? Probably not, for new turmoil had arrived.
For someone like him who disliked battling for supremacy, sometimes, when the strongest forces dominated the universe, it was often the calmest.
"Even the strong ones from the other shore just ran away, truly useless, what other shore, relying on their mystery to remain hidden!"
Although the Black Night Empress harbored strong murderous intentions toward everything of the Blood Moon Empress, she was not a fool and knew this man's power was too terrifying, so she transformed into a dark curtain and left the Blood Moon.
The elder respectfully saluted Chu Yuan from afar, a gesture of respect for the strong and a goodwill towards Chu Yuan, then he departed from there.
"Everything has calmed down,"
Chu Yuan said, smiling.
"Martial Emperor, I owe you a great favor this time."
The Empress Jiuyou felt she owed Chu Yuan too much.
The previous tear-like crystal, containing the Power of Reincarnation, she too knew it was an extremely precious Divine Artifact.
"Never mind, if you could become immortal, I would also learn many ancient secrets, and with your immortal strength, you could repay me."
Chu Yuan said, "However, there is one thing I must entrust to you, everything left by the Blood Moon Empress you should only consider as external divine materials, merely your weapon, it's best not to switch to cultivating her Blood Moon Path. Although it might speed your breakthrough to immortality, it wouldn't be good for you, you must follow your own path, the external is always external."
"My path will always be that of Jiuyou!"
The Empress Jiuyou was very firm about her own path!
"Now it seems as though the will of the Blood Moon Empress has been suppressed, but subtly, she will constantly influence you, gradually permeating, and the most dangerous moment, as you know, will be the day you attain immortality, when it will burst forth violently, backfiring on you, restoring the Blood Moon Empress!"
Chu Yuan cautioned, "Of course, if you could assimilate her, it would be greatly beneficial to you."
"I know,"
The Empress Jiuyou admitted.
"This is a gamble."
Chu Yuan continued.
"Ding! The current side quest has been issued; the host can choose one of two options."
[Option One: Revive the will of the Blood Moon Empress, reappearing in the world.]
[Option Two: Help the Empress Jiuyou break through to immortality.]
Note: If the host chooses option one, once the Blood Moon Empress is revived, she will become a Blood Moon follower, permanently obedient to the host.
"Do I lack a Blood Moon follower?"
Chu Yuan looked at the Empress Jiuyou, "The only way to minimize this influence before you cultivate to immortality, is within my empire where infinite human Dao power prevails, enough to help you suppress the will of the Blood Moon Empress, the power of humanity is boundless, adhere to your own heart, understand your own path."
"To go to the Great Emperor's empire?"
The Empress Jiuyou was silent, looking at him, the indelible majestic figure of the divine Martial Emperor in her mind made her finally nod, "I will owe the Great Emperor another favor, borrowing the Emperor's power."
"Let's go."
Chu Yuan already knew the answer of the Empress Jiuyou.
"Alright."
The two stepped out of the Blood Moon, standing side by side, their auras reflecting each other.
With a touch of her blood-colored scepter, the Empress Jiuyou made the Blood Moon vanish from the sky, including the vast Blood Moon Sea, all of which were absorbed into the scepter.
"There are many treasures within the Blood Moon Sea, I have only explored a thousandth of it, even including items that could help the Great Emperor increase his cultivation, while going to the Great Emperor's empire, how could I not bring gifts?"
The Empress Jiuyou said.
"The Blood Moon Sea has disappeared!"
"A great ancient relic within the Cosmic Sea has vanished!"
"Who took away the Blood Moon!"
...
The sudden disappearance of the Blood Moon Sea caused a great upheaval within the Cosmic Sea.
"They took it away, but there are so many relics in the Cosmic Sea, one less Blood Moon doesn't matter much."
Inside the God's Grave, an old man sat on top of a grave with a stele standing on it; it was his, quite bizarre, "Ups and downs, a turbulent era begins, but the universe has never been calm. Demons, laws, celestial emperors and such experts are all pursuing a kind of invincibility."
He didn't bother about these matters.
This time, Chu Yuan obtained a great amount of treasures in the Cosmic Sea, aimed to sort out the Divine Artifacts beneficial to him, push his cultivation to the peak of the fourth step, and then condense an immortal body.
Cultivation strength is the most important!
Divine Martial Empire.
"This is indeed my empire."
Chu Yuan smiled, stepping into his empire with the Empress of Nine Netherworlds.
The prosperity of the Divine Martial Empire also greatly opened the eyes of the Empress of Nine Netherworlds. The martial arts ethos was incredibly vibrant, the citizens were safe and happy, and spaceships could be seen shuttling through the air everywhere.
Although she had established the Nine Netherworlds Empire before, it was only to harness the power of the empire to control the Divine Artifacts of the Nine Netherworlds Great World, to let her achieve the status of a World God.
As for the former Heavenly Great World, it had long been destroyed.
"I am Nine Nether, I have my own path and route, the Blood Moon method is powerful, but I won't cultivate it."
All was said without speaking.
Upon entering the Human Emperor Realm, she immediately noticed the unusual speed of the time flow.
"A day outside, five years in this realm."
Chu Yuan approached her.
"The speed of time here is terrifying."
Nine Nether nodded her head.
"Although the Scepter of the Blood Moon Empress holds great power, I don't want to rely on it too much, it's not beneficial to me, her power is too strong, it will suppress my Nine Nether power."
Nine Nether looked at this Divine Martial man, seeming to think that as long as he was there, nothing would be a problem.
She then said, "My idea is to condense my own immortal Divine Artifact."
"Your idea is correct,"
Chu Yuan said, "But isn't it a waste to not use such a powerful set of Divine Artifacts at all? You can now draw the power from within the Divine Artifact, and I will help you transform it. The will of the Blood Moon Empress can't overturn the heavens in my presence, and when you break through to immortality, you will completely suppress this will, refining it into a self-operating set of Divine Artifacts, making it like a puppet."
His task in the system inspired this idea.
Transforming the Blood Moon Empress's Divine Artifact into something like the Seven Divine Artifacts, extracting her will and refining it into a puppet Blood Moon wielder.
This was feasible.
However, to achieve this, Chu Yuan's realm also needed to reach immortality.
Without immortality, no matter how strong his combat power, he is still just a cosmic god.
Nine Nether had no objections.
She cultivated in Chu Yuan's Human Emperor Realm, centered around her, a region covered in Nine Nether glyphs appeared, chilling and cold, radiating a frosty air, marking her Nine Nether domain.
This was the Nine Nether path she cultivated, which she would never abandon.
Although she was now in the Divine Martial Empire, she did not interact with others, staying in her own area.
"Look, another region has appeared there. I wonder who it is? I heard His Majesty came back with a lady this time. I haven't seen this lady before."
In a place, Yao Ling'er, Luo Yueying, and Shangguan Xian were there.
The speaker was Shangguan Xian.
"I seem to have heard of her. Apparently named Nine Nether, she had some relationship with His Majesty before,"
Yao Ling'er said.
Luo Yueying listened but didn't speak.
"I'm afraid this lady named Nine Nether will become another imperial consort of His Majesty. Well, it makes sense, for a Divine Martial Emperor like His Majesty, the inner palace would not only have a few of us, only the most excellent women deserve His Majesty,"
Shangguan Xian spoke a bit jealously.
"What are you talking about?"
After settling Nine Nether, Chu Yuan came over.
