Thanks to My Enemy, I Become Immortal Emperor - Chapter 112

“Boom~”

On this day,

A sudden crack appeared in the sky.

However, it was just a narrow opening.

This indicated that the ancient secret realm was about to fully open.

Even though the realm wasn’t completely accessible yet, a dense surge of spiritual energy erupted from the crack.

Due to this burst of spiritual energy, the previously sparse aura in southern Qin Province transformed instantly into a cultivation paradise.

As a result, loose cultivators began sitting down immediately, entering deep meditation.

More astonishingly,

The intense concentration of spiritual energy caused flora and vegetation across southern Qin Province to grow wildly.

Over time,

Not only did numerous Cultivators flock to Qin Province, but birds and beasts also started gathering from all directions.

“Hummm…”

The Void Transmission Gate opened once again.

Now, major sects from various parts of the Nine Provinces entered Qin Province through these portals.

In no time at all,

Qin Province became overwhelmingly crowded with people.

Whether one looked up to the sky or down on the ground, people were everywhere.

Liu Shunyi watched this scene with awe. Since entering the cultivation world, it was his first time witnessing such a massive gathering of Cultivators from all directions.

Moreover, these were primarily middle and lower-tier individuals. According to the Yama Palace’s information, adjacent to the secret realm lies a small world where the true powerful beings reside.

“Tsk tsk, no wonder Senior Sister Ji mentioned that when an ancient secret realm opens, even more deaths occur. Now we finally understand why,” Liu Shunyi thought. He found it hard to imagine what chaos would ensue if every faction within the Nine Provinces engaged in a full-scale battle. For Foundation Establishment and Qi Refinement Cultivators participating in such circumstances, a single ripple could likely reduce them to nothing but dust.

Zhao Gou sighed at the situation.

“It’s not just that. Even before the secret realm officially opens, there will be a wave of intense fighting and territory clearing. Loose cultivators without sect protection will be driven away; those who refuse to leave must either join a sect or face death!”

Liu Shunyi remained silent.

Zhao Gou then asked, “What’s Qinglian Sect’s stance? Should we consider absorbing loose cultivators?”

Liu Shunyi was momentarily speechless.

“You have full authority at the Qinglian Sect encampment; why ask me?”

Zhao Gou sighed.

“I wouldn’t be in this position without your contributions. However, I believe those willing to join should be allowed, but no one should be forced!”

Liu Shunyi nodded in agreement.

“What about the Yama Palace?” Zhao Gou queried again.

Liu Shunyi directly shook his head.

“Lin Wudao will handle it entirely!”

Zhao Gou acknowledged with a nod, though he still had some doubts.

“Earlier, when the Heaven Wrath Temple entered Qin Province, you quietly eliminated them. Why not take action this time?”

Liu Shunyi sighed.

“The Heaven Wrath Temple is relentless in their pursuit, driven by hunting and extermination. We can resist once or twice, but we cannot indefinitely engage them for the sake of unrelated individuals across the land. If truly cornered, they might escalate significantly, which we would struggle to withstand.”

Zhao Gou nodded, finding Liu Shunyi’s reasoning quite sound. One should only take on tasks within their capabilities.

However, Liu Shunyi looked curiously at Zhao Gou.

“You mentioned you had something to discuss with me, but it’s been two or three days and you haven’t brought it up yet!”

Feeling slightly embarrassed, Zhao Gou scratched his head.

“Well, my reputation has grown too much lately, hasn’t it? With just a Golden Core cultivation base, I’m really struggling under this pressure. So, could you spare a few more of your pill-marked Medicine Pills for me?”

Liu Shunyi was momentarily speechless.

“I don’t care either way; you’re the one who thrust me into this position, so you owe me support.”

Liu Shunyi nearly spat out a mouthful of blood in frustration.

“If you can’t speak sensibly, then keep your mouth shut!”

Zhao Gou chuckled sheepishly.

“Mainly, I have this vague feeling that once I reach Nascent Soul stage, my medical skills could advance significantly!”

“I even sense that if my medical skills improve further, I might truly be able to revive the dead and regrow flesh on bones.”

Liu Shunyi was taken aback.

“That ambitious?”

Zhao Gou pondered deeply.

“Yes, I have this strong intuition.”

After some thought, Liu Shunyi produced a Golden Spirit Pill with seven pill markings and handed it to Zhao Gou.

Zhao Gou’s eyes lit up.

“Thanks, Conman! I’ll go into seclusion for a while now.”

With the Medicine Pill in hand, Zhao Gou promptly turned and left.

Liu Shunyi remained silent, watching him go.

As time passed,

Qin Province gradually became increasingly quiet.

The atmosphere throughout the province grew exceedingly tense.

Liu Shunyi found himself quite idle during this period.

Zhao Gou was in seclusion, while the Qinglian Sect disciples, though becoming more familiar with him, were focused on their cultivation efforts for the upcoming ancient secret realm.

Instead, Liu Shunyi spent his time acclimating to his Nascent Soul power and observing from a detached perspective as other sects engaged in clandestine battles.

Naturally.

Once Liu Shunyi fully grasped control over his Nascent Soul’s strength, he discovered the exhilarating ability of instantaneous teleportation.

With a mere thought, he could move instantly to any desired location.

It felt absolutely thrilling.

This reminded Liu Shunyi of a saying:

“Go anywhere, anytime.”

Additionally, he began learning several divine abilities exclusive to Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Undeniably,

reaching the Nascent Soul Realm truly granted one the power to extinguish both heaven and earth.

Of course.

Liu Shunyi also witnessed the brutal nature of the cultivation world firsthand.

During these days,

the deaths of cultivators were akin to reaping wheat – wave after wave perishing relentlessly.

Under the nourishment of fallen cultivators’ bodies and blood, vegetation across Qin Province flourished wildly.

Even some renowned sects faced complete annihilation.

Even before the secret realm fully opened, it had already reached such brutal intensity.

Liu Shunyi dared not imagine what level of madness would ensue once the secret realm was completely accessible.

However, he chose not to delve deeper into these matters.

For now, they were none of his concern!

Suddenly,

Swish~

The shadow guard materialized in front of Liu Shunyi.

“Great Yama, we’ve recently obtained information about Heaven Wrath Temple’s objectives for entering the ancient secret realm. Additionally, there are some details related to your Senior Sister!”

“Oh!” Intrigued, Liu Shunyi took the documents and began reading carefully.

After perusing them thoroughly, he furrowed his brow slightly.

“Dragon Source Disk, Mountains and Rivers Seal, Heaven-Mending Pill, Nihility Soul Sword!”

In the next set of information, it revealed that Ji Suying had been preparing extensively for similar items, seemingly with the same targets in mind. Moreover, there was mention of Heaven Wrath Temple’s plan to eliminate her, dubbed “Operation Eliminate Ji Suying.”

In essence, their scheme involved trapping Ji Suying within the secret realm during this event.

It appeared as though all of Heaven Wrath Temple’s plans were specifically aimed at Ji Suying.

Upon realizing this, Liu Shunyi fell silent.

From these intelligence reports, one clear message emerged:

Heaven Wrath Temple represented the reborn antagonist,
while Ji Suying embodied the reborn protagonist.

“Ah, this is truly intriguing now! I wonder who will emerge victorious – the protagonist or the villain?”

The shadow guard scratched his head. “Sir, aren’t you going to intervene?”

Liu Shunyi paused momentarily. “Intervene? Why would I do that?”

The shadow guard looked perplexed.

Liu Shunyi clarified, “Yama Palace belongs to Yama; what does it have to do with me, Liu Shunyi?”

The shadow guard was utterly confused.
