Capítulo 135: Leaving
"Maybe it's really just a coincidence. It can't possibly be because the author was too lazy to come up with a name for a realm, right?" Yun Wuji muttered aloud, shaking his head.
"...My lord?" The bald guy cautiously lifted his head, his voice trembling as he spoke.
"Ah, right, you're still here," Yun Wuji said, snapping out of his thoughts casually. "I originally planned to grind your bones and mince your flesh, but since you were useful, I'll only crush your body to pieces."
As he spoke, a gentle smile spread across his face, his expression making it seem as though he was offering a great concession.
"My... my lord... what... what about the protection fees?!" The short guy's face turned pale in an instant, his voice trembling as he stammered out the words.
"Sorry, but you are just too poor. What you paid isn't enough to protect you from me," Yun Wuji said with a casual shrug, raising his hand and pointing at the trembling man.
"My lord, wai...aghr!!" The bald man tried to plead, but before he could finish, a powerful force from Yun Wuji's hand descended, crushing his entire body into oblivion.
After killing him, Yun Wuji used fire to burn everything to ashes. He then took some time to bury the unfortunate family, marking their resting place with a small mound of stones before turning and leaving without looking back.
...
Over a month later, the Devil body left the Snow Song Realm and entered the Northern Divine Region, "It seems that as long as I am careful, nothing will happen," muttered Yun Wuji.
The Snow Song Realm is the closest to the Northern Divine Region in the Eastern Divine Region. Most 'devil' people trying to escape the Northern Divine Region pass through it, only to be hunted down by the Snow Song Realm's people.
During his journey to the Northern Divine Region, he didn't encounter any unexpected situations or crises. While this was largely due to his Divine King Realm cultivation, it also showed that the God Realm was safe enough for him to travel with his main body.
Flying through the dark Northern Divine Region, feeling the thick darkness that could cripple most cultivators in the three Divine Regions, Yun Wuji took a deep breath and said, "How comfortable!"
...
While exploring the God Realm with his two bodies, Yun Wuji entered the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley on the Blue Pole Star to meet the Golden Crow for the last time.
"Yun Wuji, what brought you here this time?" As Yun Wuji stepped into the Golden Crow's Holy Land, a pair of slender golden eyes appeared, locking onto him, followed by the voice of the Golden Crow.
"Hey, pretty eyes, miss me?" Yun Wuji waved his right hand casually, a smirk on his face.
"..." The Golden Crow remained silent for a moment before responding, "Speak. What do you want from this noble one?"
"How boring, you've changed. You used to be quite feisty and lively, now you sound just like the phoenix," Yun Wuji shook his head in disappointment, and then his expression turned solemn. "I came today because I want to bid you farewell. I'm leaving for the God Realm."
"So the time has come... That was to be expected. You've been stuck at the 4th level of the Divine Origin Realm for a while. If you stay on this plane, your cultivation will stagnate," the Golden Crow said. She seemed a bit surprised but approved of his decision. She had wanted him to leave long ago; staying here would only waste his talent.
After that, she added, "The other Golden Crow's spirit is already waiting for you at the God-Burying Inferno Prison. If you have the opportunity, make sure to meet her."
"Thanks for that," Yun Wuji nodded and turned to leave. However, he suddenly stopped and said, "I really don't want this to be our last meeting. The daughter of the Vermillion Bird is still alive and well; her strength has perhaps even matched that of her father. One day, she may return to the primal chaos, and the fire of the Vermillion Flame will once again shine in this world."
"..." The golden crow's eyes twitched when she heard Yun Wuji's words, but she didn't respond.
Yun Wuji shook his head with a helpless look and said, "Do you really want everyone to forget about your golden flame?" Without waiting for her to answer, he turned and left.
"..." With his departure, only the slender golden eyes remained in the Golden Crow's Holy Land. After a long silence, she whispered, "Maybe it's not the right choice."
...
In the Frozen Cloud Palace, all the disciples were gathered in the main hall, their faces filled with sadness and anxiety as they looked at Yun Wuji.
Surrounding him were his wives and women, each with a range of emotions displayed on their faces.
"Husband, you're going to a faraway place. You need to be careful," Chu Yuechan said, gently holding his right hand.
"..."
The other women looked at him in silence, their eyes reflecting the same emotions.
Although Yun Wuji had told them he would leave the Blue Pole Star long ago, they were still reluctant to part with him.
"Don't act like I'm leaving forever; at most, I'll return in a year," Yun Wuji smiled helplessly and added with a chuckle, "One year is a very short time for us, it's not even the length of a secluded cultivation session."
"It's short, but I can't bear to be apart from you for so long," Cang Yue said, clenching her thighs with a flushed face.
'Hopeless pervert,' all the women looked at her speechlessly. But they all shared the same feelings as her, waking up in the morning without having him inside them would make them feel too empty.
Yun Wuji laughed and patted her plump butt, then pointed at a small orb suspended at the end of the hall and said, "I've already left this soul orb, so we can stay in contact all the time. We can chat whenever you want."
This orb was created from a part of his soul, allowing it to be used to contact him no matter where he was, except when he was in certain Secret Realms or the God Realm of Absolute Beginning.
The price for making it was also very high, severing a part of his soul to create it, and it took him many months to recover.
But it was a small price to pay, to still see and hear his beloved's voice, even when he was far away.
This time, as he left for the God Realm, Yun Wuji wasn't planning on taking his women with him, even though he had the Primordial Profound Ark, which contained a separate world.
Because his women weren't like Pokémon that he could just casually take with him whenever he wished, they all had their own lives and goals. For instance, Huan Caiyi was doing her best to govern her realm, as it was her pride and responsibility, the glory her clan had left her.
Even if Yun Wuji were to offer her a High-Rank Star Realm, she wouldn't leave her Empire for it.
The same was true for his other women; they all had their own lives. The only one willing to leave was Xia Qingyue, but she wouldn't go right now either, as she and Yun Wuji already had plans in place.
His women weren't trophies or items that he could take with him whenever he pleased, disregarding their wishes. They were individuals with their own wills, desires, and goals.
While it was true that they loved him and wanted to always be by his side, they too had their own lives to live.
Not to mention, he still hadn't established a solid foothold in the God Realm. Why would he risk their lives just to selfishly take them with him?
And most importantly, it's not like he was going to leave for long. Once he got things on track, he would return, and maybe, just maybe, he could build a teleportation formation to connect the God Realm with this place.
"You girls should stop worrying him so much," Feng Qianhui stepped forward and spoke to the women, before turning to Yun Wuji and saying, "You should leave early to return early."
"Hmm," Yun Wuji paused for a moment before nodding hesitantly. He looked at his women one last time, then turned around and flew away.
"Goodbye, husband!"
"Return safely, Lord Yun!"
Behind him, the voices of his women and the disciples of the sect echoed in the distance. Yun Wuji resisted the urge to turn around and increased his speed, leaving them behind.
Leaving the Blue Pole Star, Yun Wuji glanced back at the beautiful blue planet where he had spent so much of his life.
He then turned and flew north, retracing the same path his Devil Body had taken. His destination, naturally, was the Snow Song Realm.

Capítulo 136: Invictus
Space in the God Realm has more complex spatial laws than the Blue Polar star, and they are much more difficult to break apart.
With Yun Wuji's cultivation, it is impossible for him to use any of his space powers for long-range teleportation or large-scale attacks. In fact, he cannot even utilize his Omnipresent Domain either.
However, Yun Wuji was still far from the God Realm, and he could use his space powers to teleport. Nevertheless, he chose not to, as traveling through space involved a great deal of risk.
This was because, during the process of traveling through space, it was possible for someone to run into spatial storms as they slipped through the gaps in space.
If they were even more unfortunate, they could encounter a Universe Devouring Beast.
Yun Wuji wasn't foolish enough to take such a risk just to reach his destination a bit faster.
Traveling through space was incredibly boring. It wasn't his first time, so the novelty had long faded. To pass the time, he flew monotonously while chatting with his wives to get rid of his boredom.
"Finally, I'm close. God Realm, I dio...cough...I mean, I, Yun Wuji, have arrived!" Five days later, Yun Wuji finally reached the God Realm. With his spiritual senses, he could detect a Low-Rank Star Realm nearby.
This Low-Rank Star Realm was one he had visited with his Devil Body. He had already prepared a resting place there and stocked it with a decent quantity of Divine Crystals and Profound Cores for his use.
He excitedly shot toward the Star Realm, increasing his speed. However, Yun Wuji's body suddenly tensed, and he came to an abrupt halt. His expression turned serious as he stared intently at the space ahead of him.
"Hmm? You actually sensed me?" Suddenly, the space ahead rippled, and a man stepped out, his gaze fixed on Yun Wuji with a look of surprise.
"Who are you?" Yun Wuji frowned, his tone cautious as he asked.
The man before him was tall, and dressed in green robes that matched his equally green hair. His face was ordinary, almost forgettable, but his eyes gave off a deep, sinister light that immediately set Yun Wuji on guard.
"Interesting, a 4th level Divine Origin Realm cultivator actually managed to sense me," the man said, ignoring Yun Wuji's question. He scratched his chin and scanned Yun Wuji from head to toe as if appraising a rare treasure. "Good! High-quality goods! You'll fetch a high price at the auction!"
This man was part of a gang that hunted down individuals who had ascended from the lower realms to sell them as slaves. In fact, he was the leader of the gang.
He had originally been wandering aimlessly, waiting for the wife of the Realm King with whom he was having an affair. However, upon sensing Yun Wuji's aura from afar, he changed his plans and decided to ambush him instead.
'Fuck! Isn't this the kind of shit that only happens in immortality novels? Capturing ascenders and forcing them to work in mines?! And what's with this guy's cultivation? Why would someone at the Divine Spirit Realm be doing this dirty job?!' Yun Wuji cursed inwardly. The man in front of him was clearly at the 1st level of the Divine Spirit Realm!
After Yun Wuji entered the Divine Way, he could fight opponents who were two great realms above him, counting in the three extra levels.
*For example: If he were at the 10th level of the Divine Soul Realm, he could fight someone at the 7th level of the Divine Spirit Realm. Similarly, at the 13th level of the Divine Soul Realm, he could face off against someone at the 10th level of the Divine Spirit Realm.*
"Brat, you are interesting, voluntarily surrender to avoid any unnecessary pain. I don't want to damage such a high-quality prize like you," the green-haired man said, standing imposingly with his hand behind his back as he gazed at Yun Wuji.
The more he looked at Yun Wuji, the more satisfied he became. This was the first time he had come across such high-quality goods. From the man's life aura, he could tell that he hadn't yet passed his thirties. With this level of talent, combined with his unparalleled looks and aura, he could already foresee how many wealthy women would fight to claim him.
Thinking of all the money he could make from Yun Wuji, the man couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement!
'I didn't want to use this trump carte, especially in this place...' Yun Wuji didn't answer him. He closed his eyes, his lips moved as he whispered slowly, "Invictus."
Boom!
As Yun Wuji spoke, a resplendent silver light burst forth from his body. In an instant, it grew rapidly, becoming brighter and brighter until his entire body was consumed by its blinding radiance, shining like a silver star.
"What is that?" The man's eyes widened as he took a step forward and his head leaned forward, his voice filled with surprise and bewilderment.
Before the man could even recover from his surprise, the intense light erupted into a towering pillar, stretching upwards as if it connected heaven and earth. The man slowly raised his head, only to find, astonishingly enough, that he could not see the end of the pillar at all.
The pillar was so massive and radiant that its brilliance could be seen from far away, a shining beacon in the vast emptiness of space!
"Not good! This huge movement is bound to attract someone!" The green-haired man quickly exclaimed, panic flashing in his eyes. Without a second thought, he made his move, abandoning all caution. No longer concerned about damaging the 'goods,' his priority was now to secure him before anyone else arrived!
"Hah!" With a low shout, the green-haired man threw a palm strike toward the pillar.
Bang!
A massive green palm shot forward, its might overwhelming, surging toward the silver pillar with an earth-shattering explosion.
"What?!" The man's eyes widened in disbelief.
The attack, which he had poured 60% of his strength into, had actually failed to even make the pillar flinch, let alone budge!
Swoosh!
As the man stared in astonishment, the blinding silver pillar began to fade away. In an instant, Yun Wuji's figure emerged from within.
Silver light flowed over his body like gentle waves. His black hair changed to a beautiful silver-white, gleaming softly in the light. His eyes, once dark as night, now shone with bright silver, a deep light glowing from within them like tiny stars.
Normally, when Yun Wuji activated Deus Ex Machina, he would take on this form. But this time, something was different. His face was cold and detached, and his silver-white eyes were indifferent and unfeeling as if stripped of any trace of emotion.
A few years ago, when Yun Wuji visited his adoptive father's grave, he experienced a profound epiphany. In that moment, he gained a deeper understanding of the laws governing the world and uncovered new insights into the nature of emotions.
Later when he did it with Xia Qingyue, he gained the Nine Mystical Exquisite World.
Thanks to these two factors, Yun Wuji was able to significantly enhance the power and effectiveness of Deus Ex Machina!
Unlike before, when it had only one effect, this time it possessed three distinct effects.
The first effect: the technique retained its original ability to elevate his cultivation by one great realm.
Secondly: While in this state, Yun Wuji would gain a 'Battle Instinct.' Under its influence, he discarded all emotions and became utterly detached. This allowed him to grasp the flow of battle and assess his opponent's abilities even in unfavorable circumstances. Unburdened by distractions, he could analyze prior combat experiences and execute them with unparalleled precision, maximizing their success rate instantly.
Thirdly: In this state, he was invulnerable. No matter the strength or intensity of an attack, it would simply dissipate upon contact, unable to harm him in the slightest.
After refining the technique, he renamed it to Invictus, because, in this state, he truly became undefeatable and unconquerable. However, Yun Wuji still doesn't know the limits of his power.
Could he withstand an attack from a divine master? That remains to be seen, for now.
"How... how is this possible?! Your cultivation raised by an entire great realm?! How did you do it?!!!" Sensing Yun Wuji's cultivation jump from the 4th level Divine Origin Realm to the Divine Soul Realm, the man's hands trembled, his whole body shaking violently. His eyes, which were full of malice, were now trembling, and his pupils rapidly enlarged, almost covering the entire eyeball.
"..." Yun Wuji didn't answer, silver light erupted from his body and he shot toward him.
At this moment, Yun Wuji was feeling cold-headed. No, he wasn't "feeling" anything since he didn't have any feelings at this moment. He was like a program with only one goal: to get rid of the obstacle in front of him in the shortest and most convenient way possible!
"Brat! I don't know how you pulled off this trick, but do you think you can defeat me with your Divine Soul Realm cultivation?!" The green-haired man snapped out of his shock when he saw Yun Wuji daring to actually attack him. He roared, "After I take you down, I will slowly torture that method out of you!"
He clenched his fist and punched the air, sending a surge of green-colored profound energy shooting toward Yun Wuji. As it traveled, the energy transformed into a massive cyclone!
The giant cyclone spun at an incredible speed, hurtling toward Yun Wuji. As it neared him, he felt a powerful pulling force, drawing him toward it.
Facing the tornado, Yun Wuji didn't dodge the attack; he met it head-on. The moment they collided, the tornado engulfed his entire body, expanding into a giant ball of condensed wind.
"Oh? He actually met it head-on? Is he crazy?!! He won't die right?!" The man's angry expression stiffened as he saw this. The attack he launched had used 80% of his strength, and it was not something a Divine Tribulation Realm cultivation could resist, much less a weakling from the Divine Soul Realm.
However, at this moment, before the wind ball faded, Yun Wuji suddenly charged through it and suddenly appeared before the man.
Golden Crow's Record of the Burning World's Fifth Stage - Golden Annihilation!
"Ah?!" The man's eyes suddenly shrank, his heart clenched, and his body stiffened as if the feeling of death was closing in on him. Before he could react, a flaming golden sword appeared in Yun Wuji's hand, and with a swift motion, he swung it, cutting off the man's head instantly!
"What... what happened?!" As his head separated from his body, the man's only thought was how this had happened.
Yun Wuji slashed with his sword again, splitting the head into two. The golden flame burned at the edges of both split halves, reducing them to ashes in an instant!
The last thought that man had before his consciousness faded into nothingness was, 'Is this my karma for giving the Realm King a green hat?'
If it had been the previous Yun Wuji, he would have taken the attack and toyed with the man for a while, breaking his spirit and cognition before crushing him. However, under the influence of battle instinct, Yun Wuji now always sought to maximize his chances of success and finish the battle as quickly as possible.
In his current state, he judged that it was more efficient to pass through the attack, lowering the man's vigilance, and then launch a surprise attack when his guard was at its weakest.
Yun Wuji grabbed the man's body and began searching for anything valuable.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
But before he could even deactivate Invictus, the sound of clapping echoed from above. Slowly, a figure descended in front of him.
