Chapter 1692 A Gift
Ren Yuan floated in the absolute darkness somewhere in the Western Divine Region, his gaze fixed on the empty expanse before him.
A moment later, the space distorted, causing ripples in the air. A spatial tunnel gradually formed until it stabilized.
A cold and gloomy aura immediately emanated from the tunnel, enveloping the already dark world in an even deeper darkness and chill.
However, Ren Yuan's expression didn't change in the slightest, as if he had anticipated this outcome.
Suddenly, a black figure emerged from the tunnel. He wore a black robe, and his face was incredibly cold, just like Ren Yuan's.
If Yun Lintian were here, he would immediately recognize this person. He was none other than Mo Tian, the leader of the Seven Great Devils!
Previously, Mo Tian sent his avatar to the Azure World to capture Yun Lintian but ultimately failed. Since then, he had never shown up again.
Mo Tian looked at Ren Yuan and said with a cold smile. "I thought you cared about the Divine Realm, but it seems I had misjudged you... Heh. As expected from a man who sneaked up on the Beyond Heaven King."
Ren Yuan didn't seem to care about Mo Tian's sarcasm. He opened his mouth. "I have restrained twenty god emperors. You can do whatever you need to do here. However, you better not go overboard. Trust me. You don't want me to make a move."
Mo Tian's eyes narrowed slightly. He stared at Ren Yuan coldly for a while and said. "Without the Primordial God artifact, you are basically nothing. Yet, do you still have the audacity to say this to me? Haha. Maybe you need someone to remind you of your past when you were nothing but a rat lurking around in a sewer."
Ren Yun's expression still remained unchanged. However, a cold aura slowly emanated from his body. It looked simple, but it caused Mo Tian to frown.
Mo Tian revealed a cold smile and unleashed his aura to confront Ren Yuan.
Boom!
The two auras collided in the air and reached a deadlock.
"That's all you got? Come on. Show me something." Mo Tian taunted.
"It's more than enough to crush you." Ren Yuan spoke calmly, and his aura began to push forward.
Mo Tian's expression changed slightly. He quickly exerted his power and discovered that Ren Yuan's aura became even stronger. He couldn't push it back, no matter how hard he tried.
"You... You have actually stepped into that realm?" Mo Tian uttered with a hint of astonishment.
Crackle!
Ren Yuan's aura pressed forward and immediately overwhelmed Mo Tian's aura, causing Mo Tian's entire body to sink downward.
"Remember what I told you." Ren Yuan looked down at Mo Tian as if he were looking at an ant. His voice was always calm from the beginning to the end.
In the next moment, Ren Yuan turned around and vanished from the place.
Mo Tian was already drenched in sweat at that moment. He raised his head to look at Ren Yuan's original position, wearing a gloomy expression. Although he didn't know whether it was true, Ren Yuan must have been at least a half-step into the legendary realm.
"You hide it very well." Mo Tian muttered to himself.
At this moment, several black figures emerged from the tunnel and looked at Mo Tian in surprise.
"What's wrong, big brother?" Mo Yan asked curiously when she saw Mo Tian's appearance.
"Be careful of Ren Yuan. We have all greatly underestimated him." Mo Tian said in a deep voice.
Mo Yan and the others exchanged glances in surprise upon hearing this. It seemed that something had happened earlier between Mo Tian and Ren Yuan, and the outcome was evident.
"I will go to Devil Valley. All of you should spread out and look for Yun Lintian. There is no need to confront him at the moment. He is definitely being protected by those people." Mo Tian continued speaking. "He will eventually come to us."
"Yes, big brother." Mo Yan and the other five Devil God Emperors responded in unison.
Mo Yan waved her hand, and thousands of Devil Emperors immediately poured out of the tunnels, rushing towards the Central Divine Region...

Yue Hua stood in the Moon Garden and gazed down at the prosperous world below, filled with a sense of appreciation. Although the Azure World was a lower realm, the well-being of everyone here was comparable to that of a god realm. They could live happily without much threat. It was a rare sight to see.
"Senior." At this moment, Long Qingxuan appeared behind Yue Hua and called out.
Yue Hua turned around to look at her and said with a smile. "Your father must be happy to see you safe and sound."
Long Qingxuan smiled faintly but said nothing.
Yue Hua turned her head to gaze at the city below and asked softly. "Do you regret it?"
Long Qingxuan remained silent for a while and then spoke softly. "I didn't."
Yue Hua smiled and said. "This world is worth protecting. There is indeed nothing to regret."
The two fell silent for a moment, and Long Qingxuan asked. "Senior, are you going to...?"
"Yes." Yue Hua turned to look at Long Qingxuan and said with a calm smile. "My fate was sealed the moment I decided to sacrifice Lanyue."
A hint of sorrow emerged in Long Qingxuan's eyes upon hearing this.
If Hongyue were here, she would be extremely shocked to know that Yue Hua had been aware of the identity swapping between Lanyue and Hongyue from the beginning to the end.
More precisely, Lanyue had always been the sacrificial target from the start. Yue Hua created a situation to make Hongyue hate her, giving Hongyue a reason to continue living.
At this moment, Yun Niu hurriedly ran over. She wanted to enter the Land of Beyond Heaven to meet Yun Lintian.
"Ah?" Yun Niu noticed Yue Hua and Long Qingxuan. She paused her steps and bowed her head. "Disciple Yun Niu greets two seniors. I'll take my leave first."
With that, she quickly ran through the gate.
Yue Hua stared at the disappearing Yun Niu for a long while and sighed. "It is truly unbelievable."
Long Qingxuan looked at her with puzzlement. "Senior?"
Yue Hua turned to Long Qingxuan and said. "You should personally teach her."
Long Qingxuan was even more confused. She didn't see anything special about Yun Niu.
Yue Hua smiled and said. "She is a gift he left behind for you."
