Wan Dao lifted his brows. He was only guessing that two worlds were about to collide. But Yun Jin had given a precise number. One thousand years.
His disciple, whom he had met for the first time, seemed to have abilities that went far beyond anything he had imagined.
What she had said earlier was also what he had been thinking. Their strength was too weak, and if they wanted to weaken the Polar Night Demon World, they could only borrow power to break power.
And now, his identity was that of the Hei Xi Demon Clan. Even though he also carried the title of disciple under the Abyss Demon God, it didn't really mean much.
But Yun Jin was from the Devouring Demon Clan. She was greatly favored by the Devouring Demon God. Her future status within the Devouring Demon Domain would be beyond noble. If someone wanted to stir up trouble, she was obviously more suitable than him.
Wan Dao was just a little lost. He had always played the role of protector. But now, someone had suddenly appeared who didn't need his protection, and that person was his disciple?
The feeling was strange, and for a moment Wan Dao couldn't quite get used to it.
"I'm not in much danger here, but you, Master, your side is much more complicated." Yun Jin continued to send her thoughts. "Master, your strength is still a little weak."
Wan Dao: …
That kind of sentence felt unfamiliar.
He? Weak?
He couldn't remember how many years had passed since anyone had dared say something like that to him.
"Master, the Yin Yang Codex you left behind, I made a few improvements. If you can revise it with the improved version, your strength will definitely make a huge leap." Yun Jin spoke and didn't even wait for him to react. She poured the new Yin Yang Codex directly into his mind.
Wan Dao suddenly felt a yin and yang wheel appear in his sea of consciousness. As soon as his divine sense brushed it, an overwhelming torrent of information surged toward him. His expression changed immediately.
This was the Yin Yang Codex?
Sure, it carried the shadow of the original. But it was several times deeper and more refined than what he had created.
Wan Dao felt a chill run through him. Such a profound manual, created by his disciple?
Then her current strength. What level had it reached?
This was no time to study it. Wan Dao retracted his divine sense and didn't dare touch it again.
"This Yin Yang Codex…" His expression grew complicated.
"According to the version you left, I only made a little improvement." Yun Jin answered.
Wan Dao went silent again. He suddenly couldn't tell.
Was this disciple being overly humble or suddenly showing off?
No, no, no.
Tian Po Sword had chosen her as his successor. She must be as low key and modest as him. How could he even think she was pretending?
That would be absolutely wrong. His disciple must simply be too humble.
Wan Dao finally said, "This is not a simple improvement. The previous version was just an idea. After your revisions, it has become a peerless classic. By the way, I just sensed it. This codex has three layers. I don't know which layer you've reached."
Yun Jin said, "Not very well."
Wan Dao was about to comfort her.
Then she continued, "I only reached the third layer."
Wan Dao went silent. He couldn't shake a feeling. His disciple's style felt… kind of strange. But she was chosen by Tian Po Sword. It must be his imagination.
"Reaching the third layer is already amazing." Wan Dao sincerely praised.
Yun Jin sighed, "But it took me a hundred years to barely reach the third layer."
A hundred years.
Wan Dao's smile froze.
Right.
When his disciple's Yin Yang Primordial Force reached a certain level, the veil of the Primordial would hide everything. Her publicly shown age of two thousand years was probably fake.
"So how old are you exactly…" Wan Dao's voice shook.
"Let me count." Yun Jin lifted her fingers and started to count. "If I only count the time in the Vast Azure World, I should be twenty three. If I count true time lived, then about one hundred and fifty five."
She finished and sighed, "It turns out I'm already an old lady past a hundred."
Wan Dao: …
He suddenly felt the urge to cough up blood. Even counting real time lived.
One hundred and fifty five years? Was that a long time?
Wan Dao was close to three thousand.
In all the myriad heavens and worlds, someone with that age and that strength was already extremely rare.
But Yun Jin.
One hundred and fifty five.
And she still looked regretful and called herself an old lady?
No.
Something had to be off.
His disciple's way of talking was absolutely problematic.
Otherwise.
Why did every sentence make him want to bleed? Had his tolerance gotten weaker?
Wan Dao felt a little dazed. He steadied himself and said, "We've been fighting for a long time. If we keep going, it'll leave too much evidence. Next, you strike hard. I won't be able to take it, and I'll escape into the poison miasma. Then you won't have to care about me anymore. That poison miasma won't kill me. When the match is over, we'll find a way to meet again."
Yun Jin gave a subtle nod. Then she raised her hand and shouted Falling Stars in the Night.
Wan Dao blocked the first two blows. He pretended he failed to block the third, turned into black mist, and rushed straight into the poison miasma.
Yun Jin seemed like she wanted to chase, but the moment she stepped inside, her face turned pale and she hurried back out.
"Mo Ran, if you have the ability, then stay inside forever." Yun Jin snorted and sat down to rest.
Liu Yue and Mo Ran had fought for a long time, and the demons watching were enjoying it greatly when the fight suddenly stopped.
Mo Ran actually rushed into poison miasma as if he didn't care about his life.
Was he choosing death in poison miasma over giving points to Liu Yue?
But it didn't take long before they discovered something.
Mo Ran, even inside the poison miasma, looked pained, but his Primordial Soul was extremely stable, not showing the slightest collapse.
He seemed.
Not that afraid of poison after all?
"Interesting. Mo Ran seems to have mastered a Primordial Force connected to poison." The Devouring Demon God looked a little surprised.
The Abyss Demon God had only learned this just now, but his expression stayed calm. "Oh? So only your disciples get secrets?"
The Devouring Demon God narrowed his eyes and a cold smile crept across his heart. He knew Liu Yue hadn't used her full strength. But that was his instruction. He told her not to go all out at first, to act, and to finish with a narrow victory.
Who would have thought Mo Ran would have another trick like hiding in poison miasma?
But it didn't matter.
Everyone saw clearly that Mo Ran fled because he couldn't beat Liu Yue. He rushed into poison miasma simply to save his life. The champion of this match was no longer in doubt.
The Devouring Demon God's lips curved slightly.
The Abyss Demon God was actually quite satisfied.
Bei Si died in a single move, but Mo Ran and Liu Yue fought for so long. That alone proved Mo Ran's strength was exceptional. If he could survive in poison miasma, then his strength and adaptability would both be at the very top.
Such talent was worth cultivating carefully.
In the audience.
An Ying and Ling Yun looked bewildered.
This...
With big brother's skill, he could crush anyone effortlessly.
Was this some kind of strategy?
Right.
It had to be a strategy.
Big brother would definitely make a desperate comeback and win at the end.
An Ying and Ling Yun kept waiting.
But Yun Jin and Wan Dao already shared a silent understanding. After acting for a few days, the disciple match came to an end.
The island barrier opened.
Wan Dao staggered out and collapsed in front of the Abyss Demon God. With obvious difficulty he croaked, "Disciple… disciple… is useless…"
Then he passed out.
When Yun Jin came out and saw this, she was stunned.
"Wan Dao, Master, that acting!
Very Good!"
===
LOL, they finally meet. Will he really cough blood when he knew what Wushuang sect style right now???
I think something wrong with my memory. If I remember correctly, there's arc when Yun Jin back to the Boundless Sea and fought with the Emperor.
And the emperor's weapon is trident. Is that arc happen after this arc? I'm not sure....
