?After they had traveled in the void for almost two weeks, Ling Yun and the others finally arrived in front of a realm, but their expressions all looked horrified. The realm was pitch black, making them unable to see anything inside, including Ling Xi and Song An, whose cultivation was already at the supreme god realm.

“Back then, this realm was different, and it was quite beautiful. However, the arrival of the darkness beast changed everything, and darkness began to envelop this realm, causing its inhabitants to take the tough decision to leave their homeland , especially since they couldn’t kill it.” Unlike the others, Zhou Yu’s words actually made Ling Yun overjoyed, and he seemed impatient to enter that realm. “Since this realm was empty, darkness quickly engulfed it, and other cultivators called it the Endless Darkness Realm, especially since light elements could not penetrate it.”

“Even light elements are useless in this darkness, huh?” Tian Yueling and the others muttered in shock.

“That’s right.” Zhou Yu nodded at them, but she then turned to one of them. “However, they are people with ordinary light elements, but that doesn’t apply to Ling Yu’er. After all, the celestial nine-tailed fox, Tian Hu, resides in his soul, and her light element is much stronger, so I think she should be able to illuminate this darkness.”

“Haha! I finally have the opportunity to get off the Icarus!” Ling Yu’er laughed happily after hearing that, especially since she felt so bored staying in the void for so long, and Ling Yun also didn’t bring her when they stopped in the two realms before, so she really couldn’t wait to enter that realm. Wasting no time, she removed the necklace around her neck, allowing Tian Hu to take control of her body, and the silhouette of the celestial nine-tailed fox appeared behind her.

Upon seeing that, Song An and the demi-humans instinctively retreated several steps, particularly because the celestial nine-tailed fox was not an ordinary beast, despite its strength being inferior to that of the primordial chaos dragon.

“Master, we’ll come with you, especially since we don’t know for sure about the situation in this realm, so we want to be by your side to protect you.” Jin Zhongli was the first to speak to Ling Yun.

“That’s right, master.” Jiu Shen said it with a nod. “You are our master, so we have to be by your side in this kind of situation.”

Tian Lanyi walked beside Ling Yun, then turned to him. “Even though our cultivation is lower than Sister Xi and Sister Yu, our senses are sensitive, so don’t stop us from following you, Master.”

“Master, although this darkness is terrifying, my ice is not ordinary ice, and my ice can freeze it.” Bai Zhongyi also spoke as she walked to Ling Yun’s other side.

“I agree with them, Master!” While raising her right hand, Cai Hudie said this. “The darkness beast may be strong, but my illusions are no less powerful, so I’m confident that I can distract it using my abilities.”

Meanwhile, Long Ma didn’t say anything, but she looked at Ling Yun with a confident smile.

The four female demons, Lillith, Layla, Mao, and Kate, wanted to go with them, especially since their element was also darkness. However, they immediately gave up their wish because they were still too weak with their cultivation in the mortal realms, and they would only be a burden to Ling Yun and the others.

Even though they had spent a long time together, Song An and the other demi-humans still had difficulty digesting the situation in front of them, especially since most of Ling Yun’s women were truly unusual and quite strong. ‘Phew! I don’t understand how he was able to gather so many strong women by his side, but I’m sure that no one would be able to face them if they had all reached the Five God Realm, and they would definitely be able to rule over all the upper realms.’

Since they were so loyal to him, Ling Yun naturally did not have the heart to refuse their wishes. “All right, you guys will go with us into that realm, but you guys must always be alert and careful in your movements, and you should try not to separate.” If we separate, it will be challenging for us to locate each other.

“Yes, Master!”

After that, Zhou Yu enveloped them with her void qi and brought them into the void, leaving their group members in the Icarus.

A few moments later, they had arrived inside the Eternal Darkness Realm, but they still couldn’t see too far, even though Ling Yu’er’s light element illuminated their surroundings, especially since the darkness was too thick and obstructed their senses.

Ling Yun himself immediately changed into his half-dragon form, taking out his chaos dragon scythe and putting on the chaos dragon armor. He then opened the map, but unfortunately, it couldn’t show anything either. Then he used his heavenly eyes to improve his vision, but the results were not effective either, and his visibility was still limited. “Somehow, I feel that this darkness is much more terrifying compared to my devil qi, and my devil soul will definitely enjoy devouring it.”

“You shouldn’t do that.” Ling Xi immediately advised Ling Yun to stop. “Your devil soul is indeed quite strong now, but we don’t know anything about the darkness beast’s strengths and abilities, so it would be too risky if you summoned it out now. However, you might be able to do it after you turn that beast into your familiar, but that also depends on where the source of this darkness is. If the darkness originates directly from the beast’s body rather than from its technique, then it’s possible, and we should begin our search for the sealed location of the beast.

They all agreed with that and started walking very carefully, with Ling Yun walking at the front while he was also using his light element, but his light element was still less effective than Ling Yu’er’s. He was flanked by Ling Xi and Zhou Yu, who floated beside him in an alert position.

On both sides, the six female beasts formed a formation, with Jin Zhongli walking in the back row and flanking Ling Yu’er, who was walking in the middle of them.

For some time, they continued to walk forward, but they felt that the situation was really strange, especially since there was not a single object blocking their path, making them feel like they were walking through empty land. Given that the realm was once home to many living creatures, they expected numerous houses and other objects to obstruct their path.

“Long Ma.”

“Yes, Master.” Long Ma immediately soared into the sky, released her fire qi, and shot several huge fireballs in various directions. However, they didn’t last long and immediately disappeared as if swallowed by the darkness, and she landed at her original spot. “Master, this darkness is not ordinary darkness; it can swallow other elements except Tian Hu’s light element.”

Ling Yun nodded in understanding and moved beside Ling Yu’er, and he carried her flying high into the sky, followed by Ling Xi and Zhou Yu. “Try to spread your light elements as far as possible.”

Ling Yu’er nodded and carried out Ling Yun’s orders directly, but unfortunately her cultivation was still at the lower emperor realm, so her light couldn’t spread too far, and there was indeed nothing in the area around them.

Seeing that, Zhou Yu then created void threads and wrapped was indeed nothing in the area around them.

Seeing that, Zhou Yu then created void threads and wrapped them around their waists, and she also created void walls around them before leading them to fly ahead. “Hey, this darkness is truly terrifying, and it seems to have swallowed everything in this realm, including plants and gardens, leaving nothing behind, so this makes it difficult for us to find the location of the beast.”

“Do you have any other ideas?” Ling Xi questioned her little sister.

Zhou Yu answered by shaking her head. “At first, I thought it would be better if we spread out, and I would tie these void threads to your bodies. However, I became doubtful after observing the situation, and I was afraid that this darkness would also swallow my void threads, which would separate us from each other.”

Ling Xi nodded in agreement her little sister, but Tian Lanyi suddenly asked Ling Yun. “Master, what if I used my full speed to check the area further away? If I feel anything strange, I will come straight back here.”

“No.” Ling Yun immediately rejected Tian Lanyi’s idea. “I know your speed is really fast, but I don’t want to take that risk, especially since Zhou Yu herself isn’t sure that her void threads will last long in this darkness.”

After that, they immediately flew again, but they still couldn’t find anything in that realm, let alone any signs of the beast’s presence.

*Roar*

They suddenly heard a loud and angry roar, and several huge shock waves swept towards them from all corners of the realm, making it difficult for them to pinpoint the direction of the darkness beast’s roar.

“Stay alert!” Ling Yun shouted at them while clenching his right fist upwards, and he also released his chaos dragon aura with the aim of intimidating the darkness beast. “Hey, do you guys think the beast has broken free from that seal?”
