The next moment, as if sensing something, Lan’s expression abruptly shifted. Her gaze locked onto a specific direction—there, at the heart of the Solar System, nestled within the vast, prismatic vortex, stood an immense, Ethereal Tree.

It was towering and majestic, an entity of extraordinary presence. Nine radiant whirlpools, like miniature stars, orbited around it, casting a soft glow across the void. Each of its branches swayed gently, trailing like divine chains through the cosmos, and emanated an aura both ancient and profound.

Seeing this majestic Tree, Lan’s expression grew even more solemn.

“As expected of a Tier-6 lifeform; even a mere branch left behind as the Formation Core wields such imposing power…” dropping these words, Lan turned and left without lingering.

The entire asteroid belt was cloaked in a Formation. Intruding upon it could disrupt the Formation, risking offense to the entire Demon Court.

This was why Lan chose to leave voluntarily.

Of course, it was clear to anyone with discernment that the branch left in the vortex’s center served as a silent warning to those from beyond the stars

For those uncertain if the Demon Court held a Tier-6 Expert, a single look at that branch would make it clear.

After all, the lofty, God-like aura left on it was unmistakable.

…

Meanwhile, deep within the starry sky…

“Tsk, tsk, looks like things are getting lively in the Solar System now that I’ve left…” Smiling in his heart, Yu Zi Yu, whose main body was rooted in the Realm of Life, couldn’t help but laugh softly.

Of course, only a part of his consciousness currently resided in the Realm of Life.

Most of his awareness remained with the Soaring Purple Flood Dragon, which he was using to navigate the cosmos.

*Boooooooom…* Seemingly transcending both time and space, a flash of purple streak cut across the stars, as a massive, 10,000-meter-long Purple Flood Dragon vanished in an instant.

Void Travel—a power mastered by Yu Zi Yu’s root, which had now transcended to Tier-6 already, the Soaring Purple Flood Dragon.

It allowed him to bypass space, shifting between reality and the starry void like teleportation, though far more formidable.

Each instance of Void Traversal spanned the diameter of an entire Solar System or more, all in mere breaths.

In fact, the current Soaring Purple Flood Dragon was no longer what it once was.

Its massive, 10,000-meter-long body… while still called a Flood Dragon, had already taken on the form of a True Dragon.

Unlike the dignified Azure Dragon, however, the Soaring Purple Flood Dragon’s head held a sharper, more sinister allure.

An insignia of a Void King marked its forehead, and two long, purple whiskers drifted in space, leaving purplish waves of aura.

Currently, the Soaring Purple Flood Dragon—no, the Soaring Purple Dragon that Yu Zi Yu had become—now had nine whirlpools circling its neck like a necklace, continuously spinning.

At a glance, it resembled a wicked Dragon, wild and untamed.

As a matter of fact, it would be the Soaring Purple Dragon that would be dominating the entire Kadar Star Domain, bearing the title of ‘Void Emperor.’

*Roooooooooaar…* With a spine-chilling Dragon Roar, an air of malevolence, accompanied by waves of purple ripples, spread across the starry sky in an instant.

…

Meanwhile, in the depths of the Realm of Life…

“White Tiger, I’m giving you a year. If you don’t reach Tier-5 by then, I’ll confine you for ten years…” With a light chuckle, Yu Zi Yu looked playfully at the nearby White Tiger, whose face had turned pale after hearing this.

“Master, you can’t be serious, right?” Gulping hard, White Tiger’s expression shifted repeatedly, clearly startled.

“What do you think?” Giving a playful smile, Yu Zi Yu’s face turned stern as he continued, “You, with the Bloodline of the Ancient Ominous Beast – Qiongqi, aren’t lacking in talent in any way… Yet even now, you haven’t reached Tier-5. Do you think that’s acceptable?”

Saying this, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze shifted toward the nearby Humanoid figure with the head of a Bull, a demon-like presence with a swirling black vortex at his back—Bull Demon.

“Look at Bull Demon. Ever since he decided to accompany me to the Kadar Star Domain, he hasn’t stopped training for even a moment…”

“Uh…” Momentarily taken aback, White Tiger glanced at his Second brother—Bull Demon, who sat cross-legged in quiet meditation nearby.

After a short while, seeming to have realized something, White Tiger clenched his teeth and declared, “Master, I will train diligently. If I don’t reach Tier-5 within a year, I’ll willingly confine myself—not for a year, but a century…”

With that, White Tiger spread his wings and headed straight for the boundary between the Realm of Fire and the Realm of Ice.

There, due to the alternating heat of the Realm of Fire and the cold of the Realm of Ice, a tremendous storm was brewing.

It had forged the renowned ‘Valley of Absolute Winds’ in the Nine Realms.

It was said that the fearsome storms deep within the valley were powerful enough to tear through Tier-5 defenses.

As for Tier-4 Transcendents, it was near impossible for them to survive within the valley.

…

Watching White Tiger leave, Yu Zi Yu could only shake his head in resignation.

White Tiger’s talent was truly extraordinary. Unfortunately, he was simply just far too lazy. Unless pushed, he would never realize just how terrifying his potential truly was.

His ‘three days of fishing and two days of drying nets’ lifestyle had somehow made him the top among those below Tier-5. This spoke volumes for his potential.

Yu Zi Yu glanced at Bull Demon, who had been sitting quietly beneath his main body for over half a month. [If you had this kind of talent, you’d be at Tier-5 by now, I bet…]

With a deep sigh, Yu Zi Yu felt a twinge of pity for Bull Demon.

Among the Ten Divine Beasts, he was by far the most diligent. Yet his cultivation level remained the lowest…

Of course, Yu Zi Yu was partly to blame, having altered fate itself for Titan and Tundra. As a result, Bull Demon, who should have ranked in the middle among the Ten Divine Beasts, had fallen behind…

*Haaaaa…* Yu Zi Yu sighed in resignation.

However, at least now, he had some time to guide the Bull Demon. After all, he now did not have to spare time to manage the Demon Court. As for traveling, he had already left that in the capable hands of the Soaring Purple Dragon.

As a matter of fact, guiding the Soaring Purple Dragon on this journey required hardly any effort. All it took was to set its course toward the Kadar Star Domain and keep moving forward.

If it were in the heat of battle, Yu Zi Yu would not dare split his focus this way.

This was why Yu Zi Yu was so keen to acquire the Grand Divine Ability—One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones, which would allow him to have multiple bodies, each with their own strengths.

But currently, he could only use one form at a time, which was really unfortunate.
