In the previous reincarnation, the Elder of the Three and Shui Yao, master and disciple, truly devoted themselves to Li Shuang, sacrificing their lives to provide her with 90% of her points!
Li Shuang firmly remembers such touching deeds.
This time.
If it wasn't a first kill, even if she killed these two people again, she wouldn't get any points.
So.
Li Shuang decided not to play with the Elder of the Three anymore.
But Shui Yao still had to be killed again.
Moreover.
In every reincarnation, her first task would probably be to kill Shui Yao.
Upon reaching the second level and witnessing Shui Yao's skill in manipulating threads, Li Shuang immediately showed an expression of reverence.
Seeing Li Shuang's special soul, Shui Yao once again harbored malicious intentions.
Thus.
She once again imparted the Yellow Spring Art to Li Shuang.
What if Li Shuang was a peerless genius?
A fallen genius is no longer a genius.
At such a crucial moment, close to ascension, no one would care about the death of a small disciple.
Once Shui Yao harbored malicious intentions, her outcome was sealed.
Shui Yao once again died at Li Shuang's hands.
Cang Yin and the others watched Li Shuang's actions all the way, their mouths gaping wide enough to fit an egg.
While they were still trembling with fear and struggling to survive.
Had the powerful one already been playing with someone like Shui Yao in the palm of her hand?
After Shui Yao's death, Li Shuang gave Cang Yin a Shadow Moon Stone, instructing her that she could use the energy within the Shadow Moon Stone to suppress the threads of the Thousand Silk Net.
Subsequently.
The Elder of the Three sensed his disciple's death and descended to the second level ahead of time.
This time.
He also sensed the aura of the Yellow Spring Art on Li Shuang, but just like in the last reincarnation, he chose not to pursue it.
He glanced at Cang Yin and the others but didn't give them a Shadow Moon Stone; instead, he gave them a Yellow Spring Stone.
Li Shuang used her furnace to investigate. This Yellow Spring Stone was different from the Shadow Moon Stone; once absorbed, the absorber was certain to die, but before dying, they could forcibly control the power of the Yellow Spring for a period of time.
This was to use the lives of Cang Yin and the others to ensure the stability of the second level.
If Cang Yin and the others complied, they would die.
If they didn't, they would probably die too.
Li Shuang gave Cang Yin a look, and Cang Yin nodded in understanding.
Of course, they wouldn't use these Yellow Spring Stones.
Li Shuang had already given them Shadow Moon Stones in advance.
Who was more trustworthy, Li Shuang or the Elder of the Three?
Did this even need thinking about?
After settling everything, Li Shuang entered the third level, while Cang Yin and the others remained on the second level.
The first level was where all the remaining disciples gathered.
This time.
They would once again attempt to change the outcome.
While Li Shuang and the others were still striving in the secret realm, the outside world had already turned into a chaotic mess.
Those who entered the Langya Palace were all the most outstanding geniuses of the human race.
Now, a problem arose.
In previous years, most of the disciples would have voluntarily withdrawn with their rewards by this time.
But!
How long had it been this year?
Many disciples still hadn't come out.
Who didn't know that the deeper one went into Langya Palace, the more terrifying it became?
The longer these disciples stayed, wouldn't the danger also increase? Or rather...
Had they all perished?
As everyone grew anxious, some sought out the City Lord's Mansion.
"City Lord. Outside the City Lord's Mansion, several super-sect leaders have gathered again; they seem very anxious," a guard reported.
Yu Jin raised an eyebrow: "Fine, I've kept them waiting for several days. Let them in."
"Yes." The guard respectfully withdrew.
Not long after.
A clone of Yu Jin met these anxious human powerhouses.
"City Lord! We did not mean to disturb you, but this time, far too many people have not come out. If they all perish in Langya Palace, then... then the human race will truly suffer a great blow!"
Everyone had their own anxieties.
The top geniuses of their sects, such as Cang Yin, Yan Lie, Feng Yu, and others ranked in the top three, were all still in Langya Palace and hadn't come out!
If they all perished!
Wouldn't this generation of top human geniuses be completely finished?!
"Indeed! How difficult is the Langya Palace secret realm. Such details, once we leave the secret realm, we can't even speak of them."
"If one leaves the Langya Palace secret realm early, the danger isn't too great. But at this point in time, they might have already, already..."
Everyone looked at Yu Jin nervously.
The Langya Palace secret realm exists in another dimension. While the secret realm is open, the life and death of these disciples cannot even be reflected by the sect's life lamps.
To know their life or death, perhaps only the City Lord, using the All-Encompassing Eye, could ascertain.
The City of Myriad Laws, like Langya Palace, was mysterious and unpredictable, unaffected by the rules of Langya Palace.
Through the All-Encompassing Eye, one could know whether these disciples were alive or dead.
They were truly too worried, which was why they couldn't help but appeal to Yu Jin.
Yu Jin also understood everyone's thoughts.
She calmly said, "You don't need to worry too much. Perhaps after this time, the Langya Palace secret realm will cease to exist?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
The Langya Palace secret realm would cease to exist?
What did that mean?!
Suddenly.
Everyone's pupils sharply contracted.
The City Lord meant.
This secret realm might be completely broken?
Many of them had personally experienced the difficulty of this secret realm.
Its difficulty could simply be described in two words: despair!
This was simply a work born out of the Heavenly Dao's wrath; it's likely the Heavenly Dao never intended for anyone to crack it when setting this punishment!
"City Lord, don't joke," one person said with some difficulty. "I just want to know if my disciple... has perished within."
Yu Jin smiled.
She waved her hand.
In front of everyone, rows of All-Encompassing Eyes appeared neatly.
One All-Encompassing Eye represented one human genius.
Among the one hundred geniuses who entered Langya Palace this time, ninety possessed All-Encompassing Eyes.
Yu Jin took Li Shuang's All-Encompassing Eye and displayed the remaining eighty in front of everyone.
A large portion of these All-Encompassing Eyes had already dimmed, but a small portion still glowed.
"You may check their life and death yourselves," Yu Jin calmly closed her eyes.
With permission, everyone quickly began to search.
Soon.
Sounds of joy rang out one after another.
"My disciple Yan Lie is still alive!"
"Cang Yin is still alive too!"
"Feng Yu as well!"
These three top geniuses were all still alive.
Everyone counted, and by this time, among those who entered, a total of thirty-one were still alive!
This!!
Could it be that the human race was destined to rise, and these geniuses suddenly broke through in the secret realm?
Someone hesitated, then suddenly said, "City Lord, a disciple left Langya Palace earlier. He revealed a piece of news: a peerless talent, whose aptitude far surpasses that of Cang Yin and the others, has appeared in the Langya Palace secret realm. Cang Yin and the others are already the top geniuses of the human race; who could possibly surpass them?"
Someone tentatively asked, "Could it be... Li?"
This Li was elusive; ever since she was chased by demonic entities, she hadn't shown her face for a long time, and no one knew where she had gone.
Yu Jin merely showed a knowing smile: "Oh? A peerless genius? Is that so? This City Lord was unaware."
Everyone: "..."
Among the thirty-one All-Encompassing Eyes, not a single one belonged to that peerless genius.
The City Lord had clearly hidden it intentionally.
And still claimed to be unaware?
