Chapter 360: 12 Episodes 50 Chapters Accomplishments and Departure
The planet where Qin Yu practiced cultivation, enveloped by an invisible vortex, had been ceaselessly swallowing endless Primordial Spirit Qi for fifteen years.
Within the Jiang Lan Realm.
Qin Yu, who had been sitting cross-legged in the air, finally opened his eyes, his gaze now deeper and more tranquil.
Soul Power merged with the universe.
Qin Yu instantly deduced the time he had spent cultivating.
"One hundred and fifty years, the last time it took me merely fifty years to advance from the Earth Soul First Layer to the Earth Soul Second Layer. However, this time, ascending from the Earth Soul Second Layer to the Earth Soul Third Layer actually took one hundred and fifty years," Qin Yu sighed slightly.
He had already anticipated that this period of cultivation would be longer than the last. After all, the further one progresses, the more difficult cultivation becomes. This is why many people advance quickly from Heavenly Immortal to Golden Immortal, but then find that reaching Profound Immortal takes more than ten times longer.
These one hundred and fifty years were just those within the first layer of the Jiang Lan Realm.
In the outside world, only fifteen years had truly passed.
"My soul has reached the Earth Soul Third Layer, just one step away from the Heavenly Soul Realm. I should be able to absorb energy and resume cultivation now," Qin Yu made a slight adjustment to his condition.
Cultivating the soul takes a long time, while cultivating power takes less.
Especially since Qin Yu had reached the ’Black Hole Realm’; no matter what kind of energy it was, this black hole could devour and refine it. If others were extremely cautious about the purity of energy during cultivation, Qin Yu now hardly cared about that.
"I have never tried to cultivate using the full power of the ’Black Hole.’ Let’s see how fast it can be," excitement flickered across Qin Yu’s face.
Ever since a black hole formed in his Dantian, Qin Yu knew that if it absorbed energy at full strength, it would be terrifyingly fast. But exactly how fast, he was not sure.
Closing his eyes, Qin Yu’s consciousness completely submerged into the ’Black Hole’ in his Dantian.
Within Qin Yu’s Dan Field Space.
The ’Black Hole’, which had been in a stationary state, suddenly began to spin, unleashing a tremendous devouring force that permeated from the Dantian...
"Whoosh!"
All around Qin Yu’s body, there seemed to be invisible vortices, as countless Primordial Spirit Qi was devoured at an astonishing speed... in just a moment!
Tornado.
Within the Jiang Lan Realm, numerous strands of Primordial Spirit Qi formed a massive vortex, wildly surging into Qin Yu’s body at a speed far surpassing that of ordinary cultivation by who knows how many times.
A million times, ten million times?
No one knew.
"Too fast, too fast," Qin Yu could clearly feel his cultivation power rising at a terrifying speed that set one’s heart trembling.
Endless Primordial Spirit Qi surged into the ’Black Hole’ in Qin Yu’s Dantian.
Although there was a vast amount of Primordial Spirit Qi, after being absorbed and refined by the black hole, it only converted into a small ball of energy that entered the ’Glue Space,’ the unique two to three-meter area belonging solely to Qin Yu.
After a while.
Qin Yu calmed down and carefully sensed the speed at which he was absorbing the Primordial Spirit Qi, when he suddenly discovered something very odd—
The devouring speed of his Black Hole, was exactly ten times faster than the rate at which the Jiang Lan Realm was absorbing the external Primordial Spirit Qi. As the owner of the Jiang Lan Realm, Qin Yu was very clear about its absorption rate.
"How can this be such a coincidence?" Qin Yu wondered doubtfully
"Moreover, why is the absorption speed of the Black Hole inside my body faster than the absorption rate of the Jiang Lan Realm, which is an entire space?" Qin Yu became even more puzzled.
Qin Yu thought for a long time but couldn’t figure it out.
But in his heart, Qin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
"The last time I advanced from the Dark Star Late Stage to the Black Hole Early Stage, I consumed so many Golden Immortal Nascent Souls all at once. The energy required going from Black Hole Early Stage to Black Hole Middle Stage is likely to be even more. If I were to rely on refining Golden Immortal Nascent Souls, I’m afraid there wouldn’t be enough in Yanxuan’s Ring."
A hint of a smile appeared on Qin Yu’s face.
The Black Hole’s absorption and refinement did not require any effort on Qin Yu’s part; it only needed a sliver of consciousness to do so.
The speed at which the ’Black Hole’ in the Dan Field absorbed Primordial Spirit Qi was not much slower than when Qin Yu refined Golden Immortal Nascent Souls. Although Primordial Spirit Qi was of lower quality than Golden Immortal Nascent Souls, the quantity made up for the deficiency in quality.
About three hours went by.
Qin Yu felt a kind of pressure; the energy contained within the Black Hole was becoming too much, and his Soul Power was reaching its limit in controlling it.
"The two-to-three-meter area in the Glue Space seems to have changed." Qin Yu distinctly sensed that the energy on the other side was undergoing drastic changes, and in just a moment—
A large golden ring flew out from the other end of the Black Hole. When this golden ring reached two-thirds down the black corridor, it stopped and then started to flicker with light, merging perfectly with the Black Hole as if it were a hoop stabilizing it.
The last time Qin Yu reached the Black Hole Early Stage, a golden ring flew out to the one-third position. This time, the golden ring was much bigger and was positioned at the two-thirds mark.
"Two rings signify the Black Hole Middle Stage, while three rings would mean the Black Hole Late Stage, I suppose," Qin Yu guessed in his heart.
At that moment, the golden lights from the two rings started to interweave, with the energies from both rings continuously purifying and enhancing each other, and the Black Hole itself was slowly transforming...
After a long while.
Everything returned to calm.
Clenching his fists, Qin Yu felt an unprecedented sense of comfort. One hundred and fifty years of still cultivation had brought his body to a new level.
Even without cultivating, this Life Essence Power was continuously changing Qin Yu’s body.
"Relying solely on my body now, I should be comparable to an Eighth or Ninth Level Golden Immortal. This Life Essence Power really is strange; it not only possesses endless vitality but also allows my body to continuously transform," Qin Yu pondered perplexedly about the Life Essence Power within him.
Back in the Mortal World, a trace of Life Essence Power poured into an ordinary Spirit Pill transformed it into a ’Life Creation Pill’, allowing a powerful Independent Demon to recover energy instantly.
When he arrived in the Immortal, Demon, and Beast Worlds.
That time, the Sword Immortal Puppet was injured by a sword strike from the Green Blood Sword Immortal, Zhi Bai. Nine Top-Grade Elemental Spirit Stones only managed to repair one-tenth of the damage, yet just a bit of Life Essence Power completely healed the wound.
A bit of Life Essence Power, the effect was more than ten times better than nine Top-Grade Elemental Spirit Stones, probably even more.
"What an amazing energy," Qin Yu was very certain in his heart.
This Life Essence Power definitely surpassed the existence of Immortal Essence Power, Demon Essence Power, and other energies; otherwise, its efficacy could not possibly be so incredible. And this Life Essence Power was precisely the energy flowing out of the mystical Meteor Tear.
As the owner of the Meteor Tear, Qin Yu was still barely acquainted with it and could only control its most basic functions.
No longer pondering, Qin Yu continued to use the "Black Hole" in his Dantian to absorb the endless Primordial Spirit Qi, as he had not yet reached his limit.
Qin Yu quietly continued his cultivation.
Within the Jiang Lan Realm, a "tornado" of Primordial Spirit Qi had formed as usual, and after three full hours, Qin Yu finally felt a pressure, signaling that he had reached the limit of his soul’s capacity.
The three hours of cultivation had further refined the energy of the two rings inside the black hole.
"From the Black Hole Early Stage to the Black Hole Middle Stage, I only needed three hours of cultivation, and now, three hours of cultivation has only made the Black Hole Middle Stage more stable. The further I advance, the more energy is required."
Qin Yu stretched languidly.
The Primordial Spirit Qi absorbed in a total of six hours was but a drop in the ocean for the Jiang Lan Realm, which had been absorbing external Primordial Spirit Qi for fifteen years.
The speed at which one space absorbs the Primordial Spirit Qi of another space is simply incomparable to a person’s, unless that person, like Qin Yu, possesses a "black hole."

On the Nameless Planet where Qin Yu was located, it was currently night, and mist enshrouded the entire planet’s surface. In such an environment, ordinary life could not survive, and likewise, this Nameless Planet had no interstellar transmission array. Only a powerhouse at the level of a Golden Immortal could reach such a planet.
Out of the endless mist on the surface, a figure abruptly appeared.
With black hair fluttering and dressed in black, the young man walked out of the mist holding a green tower. At this time, there were no longer any invisible whirlpools around the Nameless Planet, and the Primordial Spirit Qi within the Blue Bay Star Domain had returned to its past disordered state.
"Fifteen years," Qin Yu gazed at the vast stars in the sky with a trace of a smile on his face, "With my current strength, even if I’m no match for Emperor Yu and the others, I should have no trouble ensuring my own safety. Now it’s time to look for Little Black and Feifei."
Having reached the Black Hole Middle Stage, Qin Yu’s power was close to that of an Eighth or Ninth Level Golden Immortal.
However, coupled with Yanxuan’s Ring, the Divine Sword Heaven Breaking, the Divine Artifact Battle Clothes "Black Frost," and a robust body capable of repairing itself with Life Essence Power, Qin Yu could even put up a fight against a low-level Immortal Emperor.
Unlike before when facing the First Level Immortal Emperor Sword Immortal Yu Qingzi, he couldn’t even get close.
"Before I leave, I should go and say goodbye to Brother Wu Ming," Qin Yu’s body flickered as he deployed the Great Teleportation, moving directly from the Nameless Planet to Hidden Emperor Star.
In East Star City on the Hidden Emperor Star.
Within the Meng Hong Mansion, even a hundred years was merely a flick of the fingers for Ao Wuming, who had reached the Seventh Level Demon Emperor. Although Ao Wuming was considered a genius, he was far from prodigies of prodigies like Jun Luoyu, and the time Ao Wuming took to cultivate to the Seventh Level Demon Emperor was quite extensive. His visit to the Hidden Emperor Star was expected to last at least a few hundred years.
Ao Wuming and Meng Hong were casually sitting in the garden, drinking and chatting leisurely.
They talked about everything, from a certain expert in the Immortal Realm, to some woman in the Demon World, to a famous Divine Beast in the Demon World. The endless years allowed them the luxury to waste time in such a manner.
"Hey, Wuming, how long do you think Qin Yu will stay in seclusion this time?" Meng Hong suddenly asked.
Meng Hong’s conversations with Wuming would frequently revolve around Qin Yu; at least half of their discussions were about Qin Yu’s mystique, his weapons, and now they were talking about his seclusion. After all, their topics of conversation were limited.
"Him? He said before his seclusion that it wouldn’t be longer than fifty years, but now it’s only been fifteen. I’d reckon he still has a decade or two before he emerges," Ao Wuming said with a laugh, then he added with a hint of puzzlement, "It’s strange, though. The further one advances in cultivation, the longer the seclusion needed. Why did Qin Yu say this seclusion would be shorter than his last one?"
"Maybe his cultivation technique is special, or perhaps Qin Yu had already reached a breakthrough point last time, and this time he just needs to push through that threshold, which could be a possibility," Meng Hong speculated.
"Indeed, come on, let’s drink."
Ao Wuming raised his glass and began to drink with Meng Hong.
"Brother Wu Ming." A cold voice rang out in the garden, yet this cold voice contained a hint of joy.
Ao Wuming was taken aback and turned to look.
"Brother Qin Yu." Ao Wuming’s face was full of surprise.
Meng Hong also raised his head, and seeing the approaching Qin Yu, he too was surprised, "Brother Qin Yu, haven’t you just been in closed-door cultivation for fifteen years? How come you’ve come out already?"
Ao Wuming and Meng Hong were both astonished that Qin Yu had only been in closed-door cultivation for fifteen years, how could they have guessed that there was a divine artifact, with an internal space where time flowed ten times slower than outside?
"Fifteen years, that’s enough," Qin Yu said with a smile.
"Qin Yu, your cultivation technique is indeed strange. Under normal circumstances, even I can’t see through your strength, unless you fight, then it becomes apparent," Ao Wuming exclaimed.
Compared to before his seclusion, under normal circumstances, indeed Ao Wuming couldn’t see through Qin Yu’s strength unless Qin Yu actively revealed it.
After all, Qin Yu’s soul had merged with the Meteor Tear, and as for his inner strength, it was within the black hole. Who could discover it?
"Hehe... Brother Wu Ming, I’ve come this time for two reasons: to see you and to bid you farewell," Qin Yu stated his purpose directly.
"Farewell?" Ao Wuming was slightly startled.
"Yes, I’m setting off for the Demon World now. I’ve been wanting to go since the beginning, and now that all the conditions have matured, it’s time for me to leave," Qin Yu said with a smile.
"That’s good," Ao Wuming nodded and smiled, "When you go to the Demon World, if anyone gives you trouble, just send me a message. In the Demon World, your big brother still has some clout."
Given that Ao Wuming was one of the twin emperors of the mighty Dragon Clan, a prince, and the future Dragon Emperor, did his status in the Demon World even need to be mentioned?

At the side of the Interstellar Transmission Array on Hidden Emperor Star.
Qin Yu and Ao Wuming, among others, were saying their goodbyes.
Ao Wuming, Lian Zhu, and Meng Hong came to see Qin Yu off. After exchanging many parting words, Qin Yu bid farewell to these three good friends and stepped into the Interstellar Transmission Array.
"Brother Wu Ming, Sister-in-law Lian Zhu, Brother Meng Hong, I take my leave."
Qin Yu stood inside the array and spoke loudly.
Then, mystical lights within the Transmission Array lit up. Qin Yu watched these lights, knowing in his heart that his journey to the Demon World had begun. Could he traverse it safely?
The lights dissipated, the Interstellar Transmission Array returned to its normal state, and Qin Yu had been transported away.
"Let’s go back," Ao Wuming’s face carried a trace of wistfulness as another good brother parted ways.
As Ao Wuming, Lian Zhu, and Meng Hong left, they did not notice that a few ordinary-looking individuals with the power of Golden Immortals casually glanced in their direction. These individuals were agents of Emperor Yu.
Not only Emperor Yu, but the Blood Demon Emperor, who was always paying attention to the movements of Qin Yu and Ao Wuming, also became aware of Qin Yu’s departure. He even found out Qin Yu’s destination through the transmission array Qin Yu had entered.
