“Judging by the length of the Netherworld, the extent of this Underworld surpasses my imagination; it certainly cannot be just two eras of Spiritual Energy.”

“Netherworld, a river that comes with the tide of Spiritual Energy, connecting Ying and Yang realms, contains all sorts of terrifying beings.”

“We can proceed no further in the Netherworld; going further would mean risking our lives,” Qin Muye said somewhat helplessly, stopping in his tracks.

“The Netherworld is truly vast; at my current speed, I still haven’t reached the end. Could it be flowing into other worlds?” Qin Muye wondered, still within the Netherworld of the Underworld.

“There is no division of realms, no rigid cultivation technique, I don’t even know where the path ahead lies… ”

...

“With my power being two ranks higher than this world, as long as I don’t court death, I generally won’t die; even if I court death and die, I can still resurrect in my Lord Territory.”

“Tsk, truly bizarre.”

“These four basic forces aren’t omnipotent either, there’s none of that stuff in the Underworld, showing it also has significant constraints.”

“I always feel like I’m lacking something?”

On the surface, he appears human, but his reflection in the Netherworld is an incredibly terrifying abyss.

Yet even so, the rise of Emperor Shen You took nearly thousands of years.

Of course, his ascension wasn’t solely through cultivation; he evolved and improved himself in all respects.

It was fortunate that he developed everything from the ground up, possessing data for every part, otherwise, his success was not guaranteed.

As for Qin Muye, he could not care less; form is emptiness, emptiness is form. Appearance, physical appearance, species, he had long discarded them, never confining himself to his human identity.

The counterpart was highly supreme, representing the primal order, time, space, and essence itself, marking the inception and beginning of the world.

As the prototype of the Primordial Spirit, naturally, he possessed corresponding abilities.

When it was time to grow, he had to be exposed to trials and tribulations.

Not to mention the various Corpse Ghosts lurking underneath the Netherworld, yearning for life despite being dead.

It’s likely that no one in the Tidal World could walk as long a path in the Netherworld as he did. For those cultivators, it is impossible to enter the Underworld physically; the soul needs protection from the Yin Ship and Yin Lamp, or even the strongest cannot withstand the onslaught of the Underworld and Netherworld.

Well, that is as long as Qin Muye doesn’t stir trouble. As long as he doesn’t stir trouble, there generally wouldn’t be any grand catastrophes like apocalyptic devastations.

In other terms, Qin Muye, in devouring the Netherworld, used erosion and absorption techniques stripped from the Shadow Realm. After years of refinement by Qin Muye, it has already formed a devouring method of its own.

He did have a brief encounter with Chaos Chaos, a presence akin to the Heavenly Dao Rules.

Perhaps the World Energy Level of this universe was inherently high, but that does not imply that similar high-end powers would be abundant.

Qin Muye had already let go of the matters concerning Ji Shan, certainly, he could not keep following them.

The next big goals are only two: one is to keep growing stronger, and the other is to completely take hold of his Lord Territory from ‘Lord Era,’ and then sever ties with ‘Lord Era.’

Yet such a scarce 7th Rank, in the Netherworld, Qin Muye has already seen no less than ten corpses.

But if it were in the Earth, the Earth is not this big.

Unfortunately, when Qin Muye met him, he did not comprehend anything like the Time Law or Space Law; probably he lacks the protagonist’s fate, otherwise how could he possibly comprehend these things from a series of seamless rules.

Liu Gu, the ancestor of Liu Family from the previous era of Spiritual Energy, was also just 6th Rank according to the information collected by Qin Muye.

Walking through the Underworld, Qin Muye carefully maintained his outer shell; once broken, it would be a catastrophe for the Netherworld.

Others definitely couldn’t cultivate as quickly as him, after all, growing stronger isn’t purely about cultivation. Even if other lords follow the routine cultivation, no matter how talented, they couldn’t be quicker than his transformations.

Qin Muye doesn’t know how strong the 9th Rank is, but it should be no less potent than a Race Mother.

Qin Muye slowly walked deeper into the Netherworld, continually drawing upon the Underworld’s native source power as sustenance.

Qin Muye sensed that things from Earth were not suited for the Underworld, and besides, the Underworld was not a scientific place. To force it to adhere to science would be too demanding for the Underworld.

Qin Muye did not need to grow because he was already powerful.

As an outcast, Qin Muye had forged his own path, which lacked any reference for others to follow.

By now, his power had almost reached a true combat strength of Rank 7, which would be impossible to achieve through cultivation alone in eighteen years, let alone one hundred and eighty years.

If it were not necessary to use a human body as an instance buffer, he would not even need to maintain this superficial layer.

In the last era of spiritual energy, there was only one true Rank 7, whose whereabouts are currently unknown, lying dormant until the peak of the Spiritual Energy Recovery meets the conditions set by them to awaken.

In eighteen years, it was not only the Qi Refiner system that was being developed, but also his own enhancement.

So even if “Lord Era” stripped him of his Talent, it wasn’t possible to lose his ability to learn and conduct research.

Thus, as long as no bizarre things emerged in this world, Qin Muye could essentially bulldoze his way through.

He named his path and system the Abyss, representing both his power system and the ultimate dominion over his territory.

He suspected that if he continued forward, perhaps he would encounter Rank 8 or Rank 9 corpse ghosts.

His actual strength was already Rank 7, just not recognized by the data of “Lord Era.”

Whether it was magic, Shadows, or even the latest Qi Refiners, they were all just stepping stones to him, not a true system.

Like this time, Qin Muye had spent eighteen years indoors. There were minor troubles, but he was completely able to contain them, so there were no major problems.

Earth could not possibly sustain a scenario where Rank 6s roamed everywhere and Rank 7s were as common as dogs.

After eighteen years there was still attachment; Ji Shan was not Qin Muye, so he needed to experience and be honed to grow into a qualified strong person.

Each figure was lifelike, maintaining their appearance from life, dressed in ancient and elegant clothing; clearly, they were ancient people. Both on their hands and bodies, they wore exceptional Magical Treasures. Unfortunately, the effects of the Netherworld had washed away their former might.

Initially, he wouldn’t have thought this way, but now it was different; he had sufficient strength to protect himself. The rules given to him by “Lord Era” were more of a limitation rather than a convenience.

From this, it was speculated that if the Netherworld and Spiritual Energy Tide were manifestations of the dual realms of Yin and Yang, then would not this imply that during the peak period of the Tidal World it could reach an existence comparable to a Rank 9 server?

For the natives to cultivate to Rank 7 through normal means would take at least tens of thousands of years. Of course, exceptions like Emperor Shen You, akin to a genius combined with a Child of Destiny, are rare, an improbable event in a world.

Breaking ranks also needs to adhere to basic principles; he could combat Rank 7s as a Rank 5 because he had already transcended the rank framework of “Lord Era,” allowing him to do so, not because he could truly overpower higher ranks in battle.

Furthermore, Rank 8 simply did not exist.

In the depths of the Netherworld, Qin Muye encountered many powerful corpses and Yin Souls. As he delved deeper, some of these formidable beings were even comparable to his current power, that is, Rank 7.

In his territory, he could even instantly kill a Rank 7. As for Rank 8, that was utterly preposterous and beyond his capabilities.

Being an adult, if he still needed Qin Muye’s protection, wouldn’t that be like nurturing a flower in a greenhouse, utterly spoiled?

If there truly were insoluble issues, Qin Muye could assist, but if he had to strategize everything, then what he raised was not a son, but an ancestor.

If this world truly had people like Newton, even if they died and entered the Underworld, it would still be unscientific.

This Netherworld could reflect a person’s heart. Qin Muye’s heart could not be reflected by the Netherworld, but it could show its true form.

This also had its advantages; there was no need to worry too much about the instance.

This time, his territory was in this world. Even if he died, the task would not fail, because he would not have to return to the Warlock Dynasty server to resurrect, but would resurrect directly on-site.

As for the concern that his Talent would be stripped away and become ineffective after leaving “Lord Era,” there was no need to worry. With his level of strength, he already had ways to cope, such as the Primordial Spirit born from Qi Refiners, which was a collective of his numerous talents.

The Mother of the Race was the only Rank 9 being he had ever encountered, and she had not fully revived.
