The moment the red sun turned pure white, it became no different from the other nine suns in the heavens. Soon after, it was like an invisible hand wiped away the skies of the small world. The clouds scattered to reveal clear blue skies, without any impurities in the pure color. It served as a curtain that embellished the ten blazing suns.

The ten suns reflected upon each other, their halos of light overlapping, refracting, and diffusing all around, giving this scene a dream-like appearance. At this moment, the Demonic Path cultivators outside the crater all had absent-minded expressions. Restlessness appeared in their hearts, as if they had just witnessed the birth of a legend. Then, as if by prior agreement, they wondered just how far this person who had caused today’s phenomenon would be able to go.

No one could answer this. Even the silent great figures of the Demonic Path had various complex looks in their eyes. If there was one common shared factor between them, it was the thoughtful and prudent light in their pupils.

This was true regard!

Within the records of history, Holy Demon Sons whose talent reached the white sun boundary had an extremely high chance of becoming the Demon Monarch.

Taking a step back, even if they didn’t smoothly assume command of the Holy Palace, they would still have unimaginably high accomplishments.

Although this sort of potential required time to slowly activate, such bright prospects was already worth investing in.

At the very least, they had to publicize their position so that they didn’t provoke a powerful future enemy.

To be able to stand out amongst the countless cultivators and become pivotal high level figures of the Demonic Path, while not all of these peak characters might possess supreme intelligence, none of them were idiots.

Today, Qin Yu had used his amazing performance to create a layer of protection around himself, slightly firming the road beneath his feet that he would have to walk down in the future.

What they needed to witness they had already witnessed. The great level figures started to withdraw. With their status, no matter what decision they made in the end, they needed to be cautious.

Even if Qin Yu’s talent was unparalleled, they wouldn’t easily invest everything in him. Since they didn’t want to be prematurely entangled in the struggle for the throne of the Holy Monarch, leaving the scene ahead of time was the best choice. Otherwise, once Qin Yu came out, how should they act?

The Mu Family was the first to leave. Just like when they arrived, they didn’t alarm too many people but there were still many eyes taking notice of them.

There were some truths that everyone was aware of in their hearts, even if no one spoke them out loud. The Mu Family was extremely powerful right now. If they wanted to remain powerful, they could only meet this new difficulty head on.

So this became a problem without a solution. Even though both sides had never met before and didn’t have any previous grievances, from this day forth, they were doomed to be each other’s greatest enemies. This would continue until one side gave up or died.

The Demon Envoy took a deep breath. He didn’t leave with everyone else. As one of the highest ranked figures within the Holy Palace, it was natural for him to be concerned with this peerless proud son of heaven that had reached the legendary white sun boundary.

But in reality, there was a worry in his heart that no one knew of. Because the greatest explosive point today hadn’t appeared.

That was, Qin Yu’s actual Demon Body boundary.

At Heavenly Demon City, the Demon Envoy had found an excuse to go out with Yan Liu. Although there wasn’t substantial contact between them, he still felt Qin Yu’s rich and vigorous blood energy fluctuations, a blood energy so potent that it was inconceivable.

Sovereign rank Demon Body!

The reason the Demon Envoy could make such an accurate determination was because he was a long-established Sovereign rank existence. Moreover, he also had a Calamity Immortal realm cultivation, so finding out Qin Yu’s foundation wasn’t too difficult.

His initial plan had been to suppress Qin Yu for a period of time. Thus, he came to an agreement with all sides to seal all information of what occurred in the Demon Ascension Gate.

But changes always came faster than one could anticipate. Today, Qin Yu had amazed the world with a single feat. Before he could be suppressed, he had soared into the highest heavens, grabbing the attention of all factions.

A white sun boundary talent was terrifying, but the difficulty of cultivating the Demon Body was equally astonishing. If one wanted to have true achievements, this needed a massive amount of time and resources.

But if it were discovered by others that this white sun boundary disciple had obtained a Sovereign rank Demon Body before his talent had been thoroughly activated?

The Mu Family would be the first to go crazy!

That’s right, they would go crazy. Because they would no longer have enough time to patiently wait for a chance to tear Qin Yu down.

As the bloodline descendants of the last Holy Monarch, even if only half their surname remained, they still possessed an incomparably mighty and dreadful background.

The Holy Palace’s Demon Envoy controlled half of the True Demon Guards, and he himself was an unsurpassed Calamity Immortal existence. But, he didn’t have any confidence that he could fend off the wild frenzied attacks of the Mu Family.

But the Demon Envoy didn’t have a choice.

This world was fair sometimes. When Qin Yu obtained the protection offered by his halo of talent, as the positions of many people around him changed, he also had to withstand the collateral troubles caused by this.

In the skies above, the tenth sun gradually faded away. Clouds began to appear in the clear blue skies once more.

The phenomenon had come to an end and the final closing moments had arrived. The Demon Envoy had a calm expression. He had already prepared himself to meet any situation.

Even if he had to tear apart any pretense of cordiality, even if he had to slaughter through a sea of blood, even if he had to topple the balance within the Demonic Path, he had to preserve Qin Yu’s life.

No matter the cost!

Above the pitch black crater, the only remaining dark space trembled several times before it split open. A figure walked out. Because the light outside was too bright, this person lifted his hand to cover his face, subconsciously narrowing his eyes.

Qin Yu swept his eyes around to see jaws dropped open and eyes so wide open that they seemed as if they would fall out in the next moment.

Qin Yu had a calm expression. This was because he had already expected this, and the final result was even better than he anticipated.

Originally, he only wanted to try his best to rise up and be highly valued by the Demonic Path. But, he never imagined such a large red jujube would fall into his mouth from this incident.

Although he had undergone a pain so agonizing that outsiders couldn’t imagine it, this was nothing compared to his harvests.

He faintly smiled inside. At this time, Qin Yu seemed to feel something. He looked up and his gaze bumped into the Demon Envoy’s.

It was him!

His body subconsciously tensed before he quickly restored himself. Qin Yu respectfully bowed.

The Demon Envoy had no expression on his face. He looked deeply at Qin Yu before turning to leave.

At this moment, the Demon Envoy’s emotions were surging like a stormy sea, nearly uncontainable.

That day at Dawnperch Hotel when both sides sat facing each other, he had laid down his wine cup and made one final probe of Qin Yu.

The Demon Envoy confirmed that he wasn’t wrong. Those boundless blood energy fluctuations and that tyrannical aura that came from the same origin, that was absolutely a Sovereign rank Demon Body. Of this, he had no doubt.

But now, when Qin Yu emerged from the dark space, the Demon Envoy discovered that he couldn’t sense any Demon Body blood energy fluctuations coming from him.

There were two possibilities.

The first was his Demon Body had been crippled…and the second was that he had risen to an even higher level, surpassing his scope of sense.

The tenth sun in the skies had just faded away.

It was impossible for Qin Yu’s Demon Body to have been crippled somehow.

Then, there was only one option left…

Emperor rank…

Even someone with a formidable mindset like the Demon Envoy couldn’t help but groan and waver.

If he hadn’t personally confirmed this for himself, he would have never believed it.

But as he thought about Qin Yu’s white sun Demon Body talent, while this was astonishing, it could also be reasonably explained.

However…was the white sun Demon Body cultivation talent really so terrifying?

The Demon Envoy didn’t know. But, there was one point he was sure of. Qin Yu’s chances of success were originally 50-50, but now they had risen by another 30%.

This was because in the eyes of outsiders, while Qin Yu was a junior who possessed heaven-defying talent, he still hadn’t crossed the threshold of the Demon Body. This would give people the illusion that they had plenty of time left. They didn’t need to worry and take dangerous risks, and simply needed to wait for the prime opportunity to present itself.

But in truth, Qin Yu had already reached the Emperor rank, just a single step away from the throne of the Holy Monarch. As long as he could obtain a Saint rank Demon Body, no one would be able to prevent his rise any longer. He would become a most peak existence, standing at the pinnacle of this vast world.

Besides the Demon Envoy whose emotions were crashing and surging, there were three other people whose minds went blank as they watched Qin Yu emerge from the darkness.

Although they had already completed the examination a long time ago, they had remained in a perpetually shocked state. They simply didn’t have the mind to look around to determine who this last heaven-defying character was. Moreover, they subconsciously didn’t believe that an old fogy who was several hundred years old could have such a performance.

Gong Zhen’s lips paled and his body shivered. His entire mind was submerged in despairing regret. If the heavens gave him another chance, he vowed that he would hide as far away as possible and would absolutely not provoke Qin Yu.

But what this world lacked the most was medicine for regret. The billowing river of time continued to race forward, and it wouldn’t stop or change directions for anyone.

Of course, this might just be a theory of relativity, but it was obvious that Gong Zhen wasn’t a person with the qualifications to reverse time. Thus, he could only feel lament and fear, frozen as despair clutched his heart.

When Qin Yu looked at him, it was like a whip struck his body. Gong Zhen nearly leapt up from the ground in fright, but he immediately lowered his head instead.

“The three of you, it seems the bet between us has been decided. You wouldn’t go back on your promise, right?”
