The God of Sky and Earth

When Su Yi initially mentioned going into seclusion, the Soul Devouring Emperor told him that this time he only showed signs of a breakthrough, but it wasn't certain if he could reach the sixth grade of the Demonic Emperor Realm.

Therefore, Su Yi didn't have high expectations, since the Soul Devouring Emperor didn't gain any terrifying benefits like the Golden Dragon Essence Blood.

Su Yi felt that as long as the Soul Devouring Emperor could successfully break through to the sixth grade of the Demonic Emperor Realm, it would already be good enough. Even if he couldn't break through this time, Su Yi believed he could accept it.

However, what surprised Su Yi and the Green Emperor and the others was that shortly after, the space around the Soul Devouring Emperor was completely filled with a chilling aura, and his power kept increasing.

The Demonic Emperor Realm: fifth level, the peak of the fifth grade, the sixth grade, the pinnacle of the sixth grade!

Until he reached the highest point of the sixth grade in the Demonic Emperor Realm, the breakthrough trend of the Soul Devouring Emperor finally came to a stop, gradually stabilizing in the end.

When the frigid air dispersed, the small figure appeared once again.

"Master!"

With an extremely excited heart, the Soul Devouring Emperor approached Su Yi and respectfully bowed.

But only a few months had passed, and he had already crossed more than three levels. This was truly unimaginable in the past. The inheritance within this mysterious space was indeed terrifying.

Therefore, for the Soul Devouring Emperor, he couldn't help but feel excited and exhilarated, his body even trembling.

However, after a while, when his gaze met the Green Emperor, Yang Ming, and Ying Ming, the Soul Devouring Emperor was directly taken aback.

"You all…"

The Soul Devouring Emperor was very puzzled and instantly had countless questions.

However, the three Beast Emperors in front of him all looked at him with what seemed like a mocking smile.

"They are Yang Ming and Ying Ming, the two individuals who emerged from Yin-yang Dark Emperor' split, along with the Green Emperor. All three of them have now broken through to the eighth grade of the Demonic Emperor Realm!"

Su Yi looked at the Soul Devouring Emperor's appearance and couldn't help but explain beside him.

"the eigth grade of the Demonic Emperor Realm！"

Upon hearing this, the Soul Devouring Emperor's eyes widened like copper bells, filled with an expression of disbelief.

And in the next moment, the excitement on his face turned into a bitter smile.

This is… (simplified: Oh no…)

After just breaking through a little, he was still feeling proud of himself. But now upon seeing that the Green Emperor and Yin-yang Dark Emperor, who were originally at the same level as him, had both broken through to the eighth grade of the Demonic Emperor Realm at the same time.

The most important thing is that Yin-yang Dark Emperor has split into two people, the eighth grade of the Demonic Emperor Realm!

How can this be compared? It's really discouraging, right?

Soul Devouring Emperor is very helpless. It seems that if he had followed his master earlier, he would have gained more benefits and his strength would have improved faster!

But fortunately, he can still find a sense of superiority from Purple Elephant Emperor, Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor, and Xuan Turtle Emperor. This thought immediately brought balance to his heart.

"Since the breakthrough is over, let's all go out now. The Overlord Sect is in need of people!"

Su Yi said to the Green Emperor, Yang Ming, Ying Ming, and Soul Devouring Emperor.

Before they went into seclusion, Su Yi had not mined Yuan Stone nor told the others, so he briefly explained the situation outside.

The group left the mysterious space and, after seeing Xi Wuqing, Purple Elephant Emperor, Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor, and others, they spent some effort explaining the splitting of Yin-yang Dark Emperor into Yang Ming and Ying Ming to everyone, which brought forth many amazed exclamations.

Knowing that the three Beast Emperors have now become four, Purple Elephant Emperor and Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor couldn't help but feel greatly discouraged.

"Master, here are the Yuan Stones you wanted, all gathered!"

Soon after Su Yi returned, Wen Zhengquan came bouncing over and handed him a bag from space.

Su Yi opened it up and inside, neatly arranged, were countless Yuan Stones, all one-star Yuan Stones.

"With ten billion one-star Yuan Stones, is this enough?"

Su Yi felt relieved. He had instructed Wen Zhengquan to prepare them to repay Lingbao Pavilion.

But originally, the debts he owed were all in three-star Yuan Stones. Now they had all become one-star Yuan Stones. He wondered if Lingbao Pavilion would have any objections.

In fact, Su Yi felt quite helpless about this. After all, the mines were only extracting the surface layer and only producing one-star Yuan Stones. According to Nangong Ningyue's later surveys, he knew that if they dug deeper, they would definitely find higher-grade Yuan Stones. But time was running out, and they wouldn't have enough time to repay the debt by then.

"It feels great to have a mine at home. We can repay the debt so quickly!"

Su Yi couldn't help but marvel. When he borrowed so many Yuan Stones, he had worried for a long time and couldn't come up with a good way to repay such a huge debt.

Now, it only takes less than two months to pay off this debt by mining in a Yuan Stone mine.

And that doesn't even include many energy resources prepared for the Dark Sun Realm.

"Big brother, I'm going to make a trip to Lingbao Pavilion, so I'll leave the mine to you!"

Su Yi and the others gathered in a newly opened palace, and he said to Xi Wuqing.

"You go about your own business, with me here, even if any second-rate force comes at us all at once, we can hold them off!" Xi Wuqing said.

With the preparations made in the Fantastic Gate Soul Realm, plus the abundance of mined Yuan Stone energy, Xi Wuqing has enough confidence to defend this place, even if the Yuan Zong Realm were to attack, he is fearless!

"The Green Emperor, Yang Ming, Ying Ming, and the Soul Devouring Emperor, you four stay and guard the mine. The Purple Elephant Emperor and Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor return to the sect to guard, as strong individuals are needed there too!"

Su Yi gave further instructions for personnel arrangements.

The mine is extremely important, with no room for failure, so he must leave the strongest power here. Under the leadership of Big Brother Xi Wuqing and with the four Beast Emperors, this place can indeed be secured, Wuyu.

In addition, the Overlord Sect is also very important. The most crucial thing is that the Overlord Sect is currently recruiting people to expand. If there aren't a few imperial-level experts leading the sect, there might be some trouble.

Let Purple Elephant Emperor and Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor go back, along with Xuan Turtle Emperor and Huang Jian. Even if a third-rate power attacks, they can resist it.

"Yes, Master!" all the Beast Emperors answered respectfully.

"Let's go back and check the situation first!"

After explaining some things again, Su Yi didn't delay in the mine.

He, along with Su Xiaoshuai, Purple Elephant Emperor, and Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor, rode on the Flame Wing Demon Tiger and flew towards the direction of the Overlord Sect.

The place where Fengjia Village was originally located was very hidden and a rare good place. But as the Overlord Sect recruits more people, the location will eventually be exposed.

So Su Yi wants to quickly expand the strength of the Overlord Sect during this time, stabilize the situation there, and then let his elder brother Xi Wuqing establish a Fantastic Gate Soul Realm. Everything will be in order then.

"If there's time, maybe we can try using the Array of Ten Thousand Demon-Gods Refinement."

Thinking about the Fantastic Gate Soul Realm made Su Yi remember the refining process called the Array of Ten Thousand Demon-Gods.

Last time, after devouring two hundred thousand two-star Yuan Stones, the Array of Ten Thousand Demon-Gods refinement only made a small bubble, as if telling Su Yi that the Fantastic Gate Soul Realm was good.

If it wasn't for Xi Wuqing stopping him, Su Yi would have wanted to throw another dozen or even two hundred thousand two-star Yuan Stones in to make it work.

But now thinking about it, the Overlord Sect has a mine, and not just an ordinary one. Can they continue to experiment with the Array of Ten Thousand Demon-Gods Refinement now?

However, upon calculating, Su Yi felt that the way of devouring Yuan Stones was a bit unbearable, and the family's mine would probably not be able to handle it.

Thinking this way, one wonders how wealthy the Divine Demonic Sect must have been in the past!

"We're almost there!"

In less than a day, Su Yi and his group quickly covered more than half of the journey.

And at this moment, they witnessed an astonishing scene.

Many figures appeared and disappeared among the surrounding forests, with a very relaxed appearance. At the same time, many people were warmly discussing something.

As they continued forward, the closer they got to the Overlord Sect, the more figures there were.

"What's going on?"

Su Yi and the others were stunned, not knowing what had happened. They didn't purposely listen to the conversations of the people below.

As they neared the Overlord Sect, the number of figures gradually decreased until they disappeared.

"Master!"

When Su Yi and the others returned to the Overlord Sect, Huang Jian and Xuan Turtle Emperor immediately came to greet them.

Su Yi wasted no time and asked about the recent situation. Huang Jian promptly reported everything to him.

"Recently, the Overlord Sect has become a highly sought-after sect. Many wandering cultivators have come, wanting to join us. And in this past month, after a relatively strict selection process, we have accepted over a thousand disciples!"

Huang Jian looked at Su Yi and said, "There are many independent cultivators who are still watching. We don't force them to join, it's all voluntary and they have to go through a strict selection process!"

Upon hearing this, Su Yi nodded. The number of thousands of people was already quite a lot and suitable for the current scale of the Overlord Sect. Having more would be difficult to control.

"If we come across some talented individuals, we can nurture them and give them some positions. It is necessary for the Overlord Sect to move in the right direction."

Su Yi pondered for a moment and said, "Huang is already the first protector of the Overlord Sect, that is already decided. In addition, we will establish the Heavenly Demon Temple within the Overlord Sect. The Purple Elephant Emperor, Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor, and Xuan Turtle Emperor will temporarily serve as the three protectors of the Heavenly Demon Temple. As for others, we can arrange their positions later."

"The four of you will guard the sect and prevent any troublemakers. In addition, there are not many people in the Overlord Sect that I can trust now. Most of them have been sent to the mines, leaving only a few of you. So, many things will depend on you to handle during this time. Once all the personnel arrangements are in place, you will receive the treatment that protectors deserve. And when I am not in the sect, you can arrange subordinate positions on your own."

"Yes, Sect Master!"

"Yes, Master!"

Huang Jian, the Purple Elephant Emperor, and the Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor all respectfully spoke up.
