Alm and Bruno heard those words from Les with surprise; they couldn’t distinguish what kind of lives had been used to create those runes. Someone with a powerful soul and a dense connection to their bloodline, however, could.
Except for humans with their weak bloodline, anyone who killed many of a specific race was marked by karma; members of that race would immediately feel it and seek revenge. It was a common conflict in the divine world: a bloodbath resulted in swift retaliation, always escalating into chaos.
’These ancestral devil bastards! You must avenge my race,’ Les spat furiously into the inventory.
Alm and Bruno reflected coldly. Many unbelievable changes had occurred in their absence. They didn’t know of another large planet with so many Feys in the same region as Planet Gloom; so, they looked at the three young Feys in the distance. All had contorted expressions, felt the same, and were incredulous.
Bruno messaged Ambry and Kisala, who were well-informed. The response was the same from both. In the divine world of the galaxy they lived in, there were only planets with many Feys in the northern and extreme western regions. It’s in this region that the Yinblood sect lives; practically all Feys concentrate on Planet Gloom.
’Judging by the level of Yin runes from that demon, these weren’t refined mortal lives,’ Alm affirmed, sensing this clearly. ’They hardly came from a distant region, which leads us to believe these Feys are from Planet Gloom.’
Alm and Bruno took deep breaths. The race and sect were the same as Dem Zarn’s; everything was connected to recent events. Why did he specifically choose Feys from the Yinblood sect? After seeing Ruri’s bloodline, Dem Zarn seemed very excited. It was likely he was taunting them, wanting both the Chaos Dragon’s blood and the blood of the Feys.
’Great, great. He and the Shadow God sect want to play with us? Let’s see if they can handle our game,’ Bruno sneered sinisterly. He didn’t want to kill, but just seeing those runes and understanding the evil they represented, he would have no mercy.
When that terrifying demon appeared, Rivine felt her laws of the wind being suppressed. She looked up, her wings beating with radiating hatred. She couldn’t gauge the depth of that demon’s power. But she understood he was in the late Divine Origin Realm; not average like the demons she had faced belonged to the elite.
’I was so close to completing... I will succeed!’ She thought seriously.
Rivine took a deep breath and felt the gaze of the round figure on the ground. She would have to give her all, and then some. Not just because she wanted recognition, but also because she wanted to avenge her allies with her own hands.
"Just a harpy, a vagabond among humanoid races," the demon’s voice sounded cold and emotionless. "Do you think your mediocre voice and technique can affect a High Demon? All have suffered the consequences of blaspheming the Shadow God."
Rivine spat, "A pathetic race like demons, who only think of themselves, doesn’t even register to a harpy’s eyes. We sing freely, our voice serves both good and evil, just like our essence. Unlike your ridiculous and filthy God, how can he be compared to our lord? I and all others have only one lord, and today I will have my revenge!"
"Hm? Just you?" The demon spoke dryly, waving and causing brute power to surge from the Yin runes.
A black wave surrounded Rivine, immediately suppressing her. On the ground, everyone from the whale’s group threatened to draw their weapons and attack, but the whale stopped them with an array.
This was a test for Rivine; if she wanted Alm and Bruno to carry her while she drifted along, she wouldn’t be fit to follow them. They wanted someone who could help, who could do things they couldn’t alone. She needed to have her own strength and the ability to rise on her own.

High above, Rivine felt her body pressed, took a deep breath, and her eyes gleamed. Her white dress began to flutter as if a gust were blowing, yet there was no wind in the surroundings.
The demon prepared to finish this, when a strange sensation took him. Slowly, Rivine pressed the palms of her hands together.
’Look at me!’ She roared mentally. When she separated her hands, a sphere emerged between them.
That sphere grew slowly as she extended her hands. It was translucent and bright like crystal, yet when it appeared, time seemed to stop. A haunting silence gripped all the demons; they sensed the scent of death emanating from that sphere.
Within that sphere were millions of almost imperceptibly tiny runes dancing. They moved naturally, but everyone felt a deadly danger emanating from them.
’Wait? Is that a Rasengan?’ Bruno murmured mentally, and Alm didn’t respond. Perhaps because it really visually resembled it.
Suddenly, Rivine’s hands began to glow as she released her sphere. A boom echoed through the air, breaking the silence. Space and time were shattered, and the world was thrown into chaos.
’This technique doesn’t seem to use the laws of wind. The fluctuations are wrong,’ said a confused Corin through the array. It was the opposite of the furious, sharp, and swift power of the laws of wind he knew.
The whale responded softly. ’It’s a common mistake to think this law should cause a great gust that shakes the earth to display its full power. That’s only for those who have studied the surface of this law. What you’re seeing is the peak of the laws of wind, reverting to a primordial, calm, and gentle state. It’s like the pole has been inverted. But when it reverts again...’
At that moment, Rivine’s attack struck the demon. It was so fast it seemed to have emerged from the void in front of him. There was no chance to dodge; but he wouldn’t have even if he could.
BOOOM!!!
The sphere exploded directly on the demon. Vast energy spread like a volcano. Millions of small wind blades were launched furiously in all directions.
The other demons were horrified; they immediately turned and fled. However, their speeds were no match for the wind blades. They only managed to launch their strongest attacks as they fled.
The destructive power of this move shook the sky, shocking everyone. The demons couldn’t understand how these blades seemed to ignore their defenses. Within seconds, thousands of demons around were dead or gravely injured. The survivors looked horrified at the cold-faced harpy floating in the air.
’Good move. It’s a unique technique, created based on other incomplete Daos. Now it’s exclusively hers, blending her mental power and the laws,’
The whale spoke through the array, leaving everyone in the group in awe. The method the queen used to encourage heroes to develop their techniques in the Celestial Realm had really worked with Rivine. Incomplete Daos provided a solid foundation, and with the whale giving her the tools, she managed to blend various elements to create something new.
It took a few seconds for the demons to remember their leader. They looked up at the sky... found nothing.
Then, they focused on the empty space beyond the planet... found nothing.
After moments, a demon spotted something floating at a frightening distance from the planet. He pointed in that direction, unable to articulate any words. They all saw it and focused on it; then they were horrified.
A wretched demon figure covered in black blood spun like a top in the void of cosmos. His entire skin was shredded, and he only didn’t turn into a bloody mist because of the Yin runes.
It took several seconds for him to stop spinning. When he finally stopped and stabilized, he was thousands of miles away from the planet.
His face contorted, and his body trembled. All his glorious posture was reduced to nothing, along with his face. His entire bloodline and internal power burned to the maximum. Then, he drew a dark blade.
"BITCH!" He roared and shot towards the planet.
Rivine had a pale expression as she watched the distant figure. She smiled faintly, then closed her eyes... until she felt something grab her, round, soft, and warm.
Startled, if she had the strength, she would have jumped away. "S-Sir!"
"Good job. Rest, I’ll handle this quickly." The whale’s words sounded calm as he gently moved her onto his back.
She heard it like a divine decree, unable to close her eyes and just stood there silently, feeling an unusual and comforting peace.
It took only five seconds for the demon to traverse the vastness of space and return to the planet. The entire place stirred as if it were the end of the world.
The demon entered the atmosphere with terrifying speed, his red eyes fixed on the colossal figure of the whale and the harpy on his back.
"DIE!"
He roared with fury, but before he could advance, the whale’s fists pulsed with intense power. At the same moment, the eyes of the round figure glowed with mystical energy. It wasn’t him anymore, but the power of a world.
"Silence."
A single word, emotionless, came from the whale’s mouth. Though soft and low, his voice reverberated throughout the planet, causing every heart to stop beating for a moment. Everything and all living beings, even celestial laws, immediately froze.
The bloodline and power of all demons were forcibly ripped from their bodies against their wills, abruptly transforming them into mortals, petrified in the skies. An oppressive and absolute silence engulfed the surroundings.
The whale looked at the demon, whose contorted expression reflected absolute terror. With a cold, emotionless voice, he declared, "I have many questions for you. As for the others, just disappear."
"NO!"
BOOOM!!
The heavens resounded with a macabre explosion. Then, a black rain fell upon the planet. All the millions of demons within the atmosphere exploded into a bloody mist right after those words were spoken.
The demon leader, however, was like a turtle in a jar. His body, cultivation, and soul were completely sealed. He couldn’t even breathe without permission.
The whale’s tattoos glowed intensely before dimming, and he gestured, pulling the demon closer. Then Kaiyka floated over and took the demon, being the official in charge of reading memories from enemies’ souls.
The whale moved back gently to the mountain, as if he had witnessed an uninteresting spectacle. Meanwhile, everyone on the planet trembled in excitement, watching his every move until he disappeared from view.
Alm and Bruno gently placed Rivine in a corner, insisting she rest and recover. Then, they sat calmly. In an ascending world, Wuji bestowed upon them transcendent power. They simply utilized all the Qi and existing laws on the planet. From the moment the demons entered the atmosphere, they were already doomed.
They waited to test the Harpy and ensure there was nothing hidden or someone stronger observing them. Finding nothing, they acted swiftly. Of course, this was only possible because their cultivation was low. From the Heavenly Saint Realm onward, Alm and Bruno wouldn’t be able to do anything at all, even using all the planet’s resources.
’Well, it was quite a show. Our followers have been permanently loyal,’ Bruno said calmly.
