Chapter 161.2: If It Wishes, It Could Swallow Moonwatch Continent in A Single Bite

Qi Yuan froze.

When did a Faceless God Cult appear? Have I become a god?

Then, Zhao Ci gritted his teeth. "My third brother also believed in the Faceless Sword God. It's a pity he was turned into a human stump by them!"

How he wished to feast on the flesh and drink the blood of those dozen Nascent Souls!

Qi Yuan said calmly, "Bring him here. Let me take a look."

These Faceless God Cult followers were all his fans. He naturally had to treat them better. After all, good taste didn’t go unrewarded.

Zhao Ci's heart leaped with joy. "Alright!"

Not long after, several soldiers appeared, carrying a stretcher. On it lay a man whose limbs had been severed, barely resembling a human.

Qi Yuan looked at him and placed his hand on the prince's body. Instantly, his flesh and blood regenerated wildly. Even his ruptured vocal cords and gouged-out eyeballs were reborn.

Zhao Ci's face filled with boundless gratitude. Countless emotions surged in his heart, yet he didn't know how to voice them.

Beside him, Jiang Ya revealed a look of surprise. "I didn’t expect Senior Blood-Clothed Sword God to also be so proficient in the medical Dao."

It was common for powerful cultivators to heal injuries using their cultivation. And yet, Jiang Ya couldn’t wrap her head around Blood-Clothed Sword God’s method. One thing was certain: he had likely mastered some special medical Dao.

"I don't know the medical Dao. However, this world belongs to me. Restoring one person's injuries is very easy," Qi Yuan added, "what I'm best at is revising cultivation techniques."

Jiang Ya froze. She thought of Qi Yuan, who was also adept at revising cultivation techniques.

The coincidence is far too great.

If not for the immense difference in cultivation, she would truly have thought they were the same person.

But is Qi Yuan really only at the Foundation Establishment realm?

At that moment, a hazy voice entered Qi Yuan's ears.

—

Blood-Clothed Sword God, may we speak?

Qi Yuan's expression shifted slightly.

A Yin Spirit!

The one transmitting to him was unmistakably one.

After some thought, he said, "Stay here and be careful for a while. I'll step out and come back shortly."

Then, he vanished.

Before he had fully taken control of Moonwatch Continent, he had already encountered a Yin Spirit. A sense of urgency rose in his heart. Still, thinking of Ning Tao, his confidence returned.

After roughly a dozen breaths, Qi Yuan stopped beside a lake.

Verdant trees flourished by the lakeshore. A woman in white, her robes purer than snow, stood there. A veil of mist obscured her face, making it impossible to see clearly.

[She is a somewhat mysterious woman. Her cultivation is at Step One Yin Spirit realm.]

The information his eyes provided confirmed it. Qi Yuan was certain that she was not from Moonwatch Continent, but from the Canglan World.

"Who are you? An Eastern Lands Venerable? Why are you looking for me?" he asked.

The woman in white shook her head. "I am not a Venerable of the Eastern Lands. I came here to advise you not to continue killing Moluo clansmen."

Qi Yuan was surprised, curious about her identity. "

Oh

?"

Strictly speaking, this was the first Yin Spirit he had ever encountered.

"In Moonwatch Continent, the Moluo Clan has five Yin Spirits in total. Two of them are at Step Two," the woman in white said. "If you slaughter the Moluo Clan recklessly here, you will attract the attention of those five Yin Spirits. Before long, they will emerge and attack you."

"When they emerge, who attacks whom is still uncertain!" he said confidently.

By then, he would likely have fully taken control of Moonwatch Continent, his strength skyrocketing. Moreover, his spiritual energy would be fully restored, and he would still possess his Star Golden Core. He didn't believe he’d lose to those five Yin Spirits.

The woman in white showed neither joy nor sorrow. "Your strength is indeed formidable. However, against those five Yin Spirit cultivators, the outcome remains uncertain."

"I have confidence."

The woman in white exhaled deeply. "You...

Haaa

..."

"How does this concern you?" Qi Yuan asked.

He didn't believe she was acting purely out of goodwill.

"I secretly infiltrated this realm to accomplish a major matter," the woman in white said. "If you provoke those five Yin Spirits, it will likely ruin my plans."

"Then I can only say sorry," he replied sincerely.

She stared at him for a long while before asking, "Do you know about the Great Calamity?"

"I know a little and yet not much."

Well, to be precise, he knew nothing at all.

The woman in white said softly, full of concern, "The Great Calamity is approaching. Even we Yin Spirits cannot protect ourselves. Fleeing to Moonwatch Continent merely buys us a chance to compromise; we still cannot escape the fate of severely reduced cultivation."

Qi Yuan encouraged her. "Go on."

The woman in white said earnestly, "Now, I have a path that allows us to escape the Canglan World, leave Moonwatch Continent behind, and completely break free of the Great Calamity. So long as you are willing to cooperate and help me with a certain matter, I am willing to share it with you."

She trusted neither the Yin Spirits of the Canglan World nor the Blood-Clothed Sword God. However, his indiscriminate slaughter had disrupted her plans, forcing her to reveal her card.

Qi Yuan frowned. "Is the Great Calamity really that powerful?"

The woman in white nodded. "If it wishes, it could swallow Moonwatch Continent in a single bite."

She left the latter half unsaid. Moonwatch Continent’s Heavenly Dao was defective, hence why it could be swallowed so easily. Had it been intact, such a thing would nearly be impossible, and only a world of lower energy would be devoured instead. Of course, there was no need to tell such things to the Blood-Clothed Sword God.

Qi Yuan felt his heart throb. "So strong!"

Moonwatch Continent was enormous, at least the size of more than a dozen Hundred Nation territories. And yet, it could be swallowed in a single bite! Just how powerful was that?

Qi Yuan's confidence instantly took a blow.

"If it's that strong, could it swallow the sun in the sky?" he asked weakly.

If it could, then he was definitely no match right now. Such a being was beyond his comprehension.

Hearing this, the woman in white couldn't help but laugh. "Are you joking, Sir? A Yin Spirit capable of reflecting the heavens would at least be at the Great Venerable Realm. Let alone something as powerful as the sun, an immortal god. Not even the being behind the Great Calamity can swallow the sun."

Qi Yuan finally let out a breath of relief, yet his worries refused to dissipate. After all, his Golden Core was in another universe. When would he be able to bring it over?

The woman in white sighed again. "The Great Calamity will arrive in only a few hundred years. You should prepare early and leave this world, or else—"

Qi Yuan asked once more, "Is there any chance the Great Calamity comes early?"

"No." The woman in white shook her head decisively. "It is muddle-headed."

The urgency in Qi Yuan's heart eased somewhat. "That's good. A few hundred years is plenty of time. Forget swallowing a few more stars with my core, even my daughter will be dominating eternity by then. There’s nothing to fear!"

The woman in white frowned. She had long heard that the Blood-Clothed Sword God was somewhat unhinged. She had thought that madness was only temporary. Who would have thought that not even the notion of a Great Calamity could slap some sense into him? Even though all living beings in the Canglan World would be affected, he was still so carefree!

She asked once more, "Are you sure you don’t want to cooperate with me and leave this realm together?"

"The Canglan World is my second hometown. Moonwatch Continent is my third. I won't be leaving for now," he answered seriously.

Disappointment flashed across the woman’s face. "In that case, please act with more caution. Try to delay using Yin Spirit power for as long as possible."

"Alright." Qi Yuan nodded. Then, thinking of something, he asked, "Boss, can I ask you a question?"

It was rare to meet a Yin Spirit. He wanted to learn more about them.

"

Oh

?"

"So, I used the Heavenly Dao of Moonwatch Continent to establish my foundation. If this world gets swallowed in one bite, then I retake control of it, how strong would I be?"

The woman in white looked at him strangely. "I've never heard of such a Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment. Still, any Heavenly Dao born of a world... if one wishes to scheme against it or devour it, it requires at least the Great Venerable realm. Even if it's a palm-sized world, once a Heavenly Dao is born, an ordinary Yin Spirit cannot scheme against it. One must be a Great Venerable. World energy levels differ, and Great Venerables vary in strength as well. Not all Great Venerables can scheme against a Heavenly Dao. Even Yang Spirits are hopeless against the Heavenly Dao of some powerful worlds!"

Qi Yuan paused, then asked expectantly, "Then how strong would I be?"

The woman in white gave a bitter smile. "That is not something I could possibly know."
