This sudden disturbance shook the entire Blood Demon Clan to its core.

At the same time, on a black planet not far from the Blood Demon Planet…

“Have you discovered anything?”

“Yes, Master…” responding respectfully, a powerful Blood Demon Clan warrior gazed in awe at the illusory figures in the grand hall.

These were the Monarchs of the Demons and Fiends Society, each possessed unfathomable and godlike strength.

Years ago, it was they who led tens of thousands of mighty warriors to subjugate the Blood Demon Clan, which once ruled over a population of tens of billions.

Afterward, they established the Hall of Seven Reapers, enforcing military-style management over the Clan.

To unify an entire race under the governance of one hall required unparalleled ambition—something only the enigmatic Demons and Fiends Society could achieve.

Suppressing the awe in his heart, the Blood Demon Clan warrior added, “Master, the Storm Monarch has already departed.”

“Mhmm…” With a slight nod, Bull Demon seated high in the grand hall waved a hand dismissively. “Understood. You may leave.”

“Yes, Sir,” with a soft reply, the warrior bowed and retreated, leaving the grand hall empty.

The hall was empty because the figures atop it were entirely illusory—merely projections of Bull Demon and the other Monarchs’ consciousnesses.

This was a Secret Technique learned from the Blood Demon Clan, allowing one to imbue a wisp of their Spirit into a statue. Through this, they could communicate and deliberate without needing to appear in person.

In terms of practicality, it was remarkably efficient.

Now, as Psychic Senses fluctuated, voices echoed through the depths of the hall, “Should we inform Master?”

“I don’t think there’s a rush. We need to confirm this first. After all, if it’s not the place Master has been searching for, it could lead to unnecessary excitement.”

“That’s true. Let us verify it ourselves first. After searching for so many years, there’s no need to rush at this moment.”

One conversation after another brought a gradual calm to the hall.

…

Shortly after—

*Swish! Swish! Swish!* Accompanied by a series of piercing sounds, streaks of light shot out from the black planet.

These were two of the Demons and Fiends Society’s Monarchs Titan and Tundra.

“Let’s hope this time doesn’t end in disappointment…”

“Haven’t we been disappointed enough?”

Titan chuckled bitterly, his expression tinged with helplessness.

The Star Domains were vast—immeasurably so.

Even with the mobilization of hundreds of billions of Blood Demon Clan warriors, they had yet to uncover anything of real significance.

No, to say they found nothing would be inaccurate.

Over the years of exploring various star systems, the Blood Demon Clan’s treasury had grown significantly, even after surrendering 80% of their resources to the Demons and Fiends Society.

However, none of this mattered to Titan and Tundra. Their focus was singular.

After all, their journey to the Kadar Star Domain was for one purpose and one purpose alone.

“We will surely help the Master find it…” Exchanging a glance, the two figures revealed unwavering determination.

When it came to loyalty towards their Master, they were second to none.

After all, their Master had defied fate itself for them—one was granted a Tree Heart, and the other, the Steel Elemental Heart.

Such profound grace was beyond measure. To search for something now was nothing compared to that. Even if the day came when their Master asked them to give up their lives, they would do so without hesitation.

Of course…That was unlikely.

Knowing their Master’s character, they understood deeply that he was someone who valued emotions and bonds.

…

Meanwhile, Yu Zi Yu, still residing in his Realm of Life, remained unaware of the Blood Demon Clan’s latest discovery.

But even if he knew, he probably would not care. After all, there had been several ‘discoveries’ over the years, yet every time, they ended in disappointment.

*Haaaa…* With a soft sigh, Yu Zi Yu’s Humanoid figure, weaved from countless intertwined roots, gently caressed the long sword in his hands.

This sword was exceptionally exquisite—silver-white and thin as a cicada’s wings.

On closer inspection, it exuded a faint, pulsating radiance.

This was none other than the famed Tier-7 Demon Sword, Lifebane, a fearsome weapon of immense power.

Now, raising two fingers together with the sword, Yu Zi Yu suddenly made a motion.

*Swish!*

A sharp sound of the sword cutting through the air resonated. Before anyone could react, a silver-white streak tore across the sky.

In the next instant, to the shock of countless Mutant Beasts, a thousand-meter-long pitch-black rift appeared on the horizon. Like the maw of an abyss, it emanated an indescribable terror.

Such was the might of a single slash from the Tier-7 Demon Sword, Lifebane.

Of course, more importantly, Yu Zi Yu’s own strength itself was already terrifyingly powerful.

Now that the sword had recognized him as its Master, it was akin to adding wings to a Tiger. His combat strength was now unfathomable.

Even he was unsure of the extent of his current strength.

However, one thing was clear—it was terrifying, utterly terrifying.

Not long ago, while channeling his Spiritual Energy, Yu Zi Yu had casually unleashed a slash.

It landed squarely on a Star System. At that moment, to his own astonishment, the entire Star System froze briefly before gradually splitting apart.

To think that a single strike could cleave through an entire Star System.

It was worth noting that even the smallest Star Systems were comparable in size to the Solar System that housed the Demon Court.

For Yu Zi Yu to cut through such a massive expanse with one strike spoke volumes of his overwhelming power.

With a faint smile, Yu Zi Yu softly called out:

“Ying Er…”

“Master…” a playful voice echoed in his mind.

Moments later—

*Swish!* A silver-white light streaked across the sky.

*Boooooooom!* The impact raised a storm spanning thousands of meters, causing countless trees around Yu Zi Yu to bend under its force.

Yet, as the storm neared Yu Zi Yu, it abruptly ceased.

Not a single strand of his hair stirred.

At this moment, if one looked closely, they would see a silver-white longsword revolving around Yu Zi Yu, spinning joyfully as though it were a playful child.

The sword was Lifebane, and its artifact spirit was called Ying Tong Yin, Ying Er in short—named after its silver hue, a name bestowed upon it by Yu Zi Yu.

Ashish: Ying Tong Yin, meaning an object or person as brilliant and radiant as silver.
