The bright silver light illuminating the space ebbed away. Yun Wuji slowly stood up, his aura once again far stronger than before.
The aura of a 10th level Divine Extinction Realm burst from him without restraint, shaking the pocket dimension until he gradually reined it in. The process of devouring the two Divine Powers was significantly shorter than the time it took him to absorb Shenwu Yanye's Divine Power, which had lasted for months.
This was mainly due to his increased cultivation base, as well as his improved comprehension of the Law of Nothingness.
"What's left won't be enough for me to reach the 11th level Divine Extinction Realm." After refining about 80% of both powers, Yun Wuji decided to stop his devouring. The energy required to advance from the 10th level Divine Extinction Realm to the 11th level was more than three times the energy needed to go from the 1st level to the 10th level combined.
Since this remaining 20% would be of no real significance to him, he decided to give it to the Heretic God Body, which could make better use of it.
As for the main body, it seemed he would have to go and visit other True Gods to 'borrow' their power from them instead.
Even if he devoured the Divine Power of the three remaining Divine Regents, he would likely only reach the 11th level Divine Extinction Realm. After that, he would have to pay a visit to the Pure Land, hoping they were as strong as the rumors claimed.
After all, he was counting on them to push him to the peak of the Divine Extinction Realm.
By now, he was so strong that even he no longer knew the limits of his own power. One thing was certain, though. Even without Invictus, no one in the world could defeat him or even force him to use more than 20% of his strength.
As for Jie Yuan, whose power was incomplete to a certain extent, he was absolutely certain he could defeat her without Invictus. The only question was how much of his power he would be willing to use.
Looking back at it, Ni Xuan possessed immunity to darkness profound energy. Did that not mean that even before he and Jie Yuan created the Devil God Forbidden Tome, he already had the ability to defeat the four Devil Emperors at the same time?
"Congratulations, you are now much closer to your goal." Li Suo spoke from not far away as she walked toward him.
During the past few weeks, as Yun Wuji absorbed the Divine Powers, Li Suo never left his side. She remained glued to him, watching with her limpid eyes. The only time she moved more than a meter away was earlier, during his breakthrough, when the shockwaves had forced her back.
"Yeah, I am getting closer and closer to my goal." Yun Wuji smiled at her. Just seeing her beautiful face was a sight to behold, enough to make him genuinely happy.
She looked even more beautiful from a close distance; her white dress couldn't hide her curves, her slim hips, her curvy waist, and her beautiful butt. Every inch of her was incredibly alluring and charming, and yet gave off an air of elegance and purity.
He was indeed getting extremely close to his goal. As his cultivation and soul grew stronger, as he spent more time comprehending the Law of Nothingness, and as he exchanged insights with Yun Wuying, he felt he was not far from being able to fix everything.
For example, even after the deaths of the three Kingdoms' Divine Regents and the loss of their Divine Grace, the Abyssal Dust remained completely still. It did not spread within any of the Kingdoms' territories. Every region remained free of Abyssal Dust, to the point that the Owl Butterfly Divine Kingdom had not noticed their not so beloved Divine Regent was dead, aside from the higher-ups.
It was all thanks to Yun Wuji, who now possessed the ability to control the Abyssal Dust with absurd ease and without effort. Before, when he tried to keep the Abyssal Dust out of a certain area, he had to constantly leave part of his soul power and perception anchored there. The moment he stopped, the Abyssal Dust would slowly return. Now, however, he only needed a single thought to render any place completely free of Abyssal Dust.
"Skipping nine whole levels is something that calls for a celebration." Li Suo held his hand familiarly with one hand while the other rested on his chest. Hei Xiaolian's tip had always been to use occasions like this as an excuse for parties, and then, during the festivities, find a way to get Yun Wuji in the mood.
Another tip was to normalize close contact, just like she was doing now. As for why she didn't simply throw herself at him and ask him to fuck her like Yun Wuying did, Li Suo felt that even though she didn't care much about shame, it still felt embarrassing to do it outright. She would rather seduce him subtly, letting him be the one to push her down.
In that regard, she was confident she could succeed. After all, she had once been the renowned most beautiful woman in the entire universe during the Primordial Era, and Yun Wuji was hardly known for resisting beautiful women.
"Celebration? Sure, I have an idea for how to celebrate." Yun Wuji naturally wrapped his arms around her waist and lowered his head, staring at her face with a smirk. "Do you want to know what it is?"
He was fully aware of what Hei Xiaolian had been doing and clearly understood Li Suo's feelings. With his most beloved Heavenly Spirit and wife playing wingman and handing him such a perfect assist, he would be incredibly dumb not to take full advantage of it.
"Not sure. Why don't you enlighten me?" Li Suo instinctively leaned closer as she whispered in her soft, dreamy voice. 'Is this finally my moment?' She had spent enough time around Yun Wuji to understand his meaning and intention from a single smile.
All the other women, be it Shenwu Youluan, Shenwu Qing, Helian Lingzhu, Yun Wuying, or Meng Xuanjue, had come later than her and still got what they wanted before her. Right now, she was the only one left. Just as Hei Xiaolian had repeatedly told her, she would end up being left behind.
"Stop talking nonsense and kiss her!" Hei Xiaolian, who had been watching everything from the start, shouted impatiently. She had worked on this for a long time and was eager to see the results of her efforts. At last, she could make up for the mistake she made when she caused that stupid tsundere Star God to run away. Furthermore, after this, she could finally request Yun Wuji to do something for her.
Maybe she could ask him for some roleplay he normally wouldn't want to do, like the evil stepmother and the ill stepson, the aunt and the orphaned nephew, or the crippled young master and the head maid. There were so many possibilities. Just thinking about all these scenarios made Hei Xiaolian's heart skip a beat, her pulse racing, and blood starting to seep from her nose. She was having a nosebleed.
Yun Wuji ignored Hei Xiaolian and did not answer Li Suo's question. There was no need to say anything. Both of them knew exactly what they wanted, and they were going to get it. He pulled her close, lightly biting her soft lips before greedily sucking on them, stealing her breath away. His tongue pried open her nervously clenched, jade-like teeth, finding its way to hers. He continued to suck gently, savoring the faint traces of sweetness filling the air and, bit by bit, his heart.
Standing on tiptoe, Li Suo entwined her arms around his neck as she clumsily kissed him back, her soft body pressing against his, squeezing her breasts against his chest.
Her figure was not as exaggerated as Chi Wuyao or Mu Xuanyin, or even Meng Xuanjue. She leaned more toward the slim side, similar to Qianye Ying'er. Even so, her exquisite physique carried a sense of perfect balance. If her body were to change even slightly, it felt as though it would ruin her otherworldly, celestial beauty.
Her tongue rolled against his, intertwining with his in an erotic, sensual dance, while his hand gripped her ass tightly.
When they finally pulled apart, a long, transparent string of saliva connected them. Li Suo leaned against his chest, her breath short, her soft body pressed tightly against his.
"Do you want to continue?" Yun Wuji caressed her face, his thumb brushing her lips as he asked.
