Paragon Of Sin

Chapter 1899: Chapter 1891: On Behalf Of

Three days later.

Beyond the borders of the Refining Skies Galactic Zone, a recreation of the Neo-Dawn Original Palace that was forged with valuable materials had just concluded the gathering of the upper elites of the Utmost Purity Galaxy, consisting of Sages, Enlightened Sages, and Supreme Sages.

A private auction was held, shifting attention away from Su Yi, giving incentives for others to lay down their arms and interests for a rare opportunity that may or may not come again. The auctioning of the Abstruse Spiritforce Pill, especially considering there were two, one at the low-perfection and one at the peak-perfection. Among products of the peak-perfection Mystic-Heaven grade with a genuine and appropriately graded effect, the Abstruse Spiritforce Pill was exceptional. The chances of a private auction happening that included this pill at such a quality might not happen for a million years! If one considered the scarcity, demand, and guaranteed quality vetted by seven Heavenly Saint Alchemists, then the pill was incredibly precious.

Not a single person was willing to miss this, especially since Arising Sage Elixirs and a few other vague products were alluded to. Personally witnessing the extent to which the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint was willing to divert attention from Su Yi's matter at the request of Yue Baoyue, not a single person in the upper stages of the Mystic Ascendant Realm, whether they were Mystic Overlords, True Sages, or Enlightened Sages, dared to meddle further.

As for Su Yi's enemies, they had more or less been eradicated. There was no longer any individual or organization that had death grudges that must be claimed at all costs, unable to eat or sleep until it was.

Yue Baoyue and Su Yi were free to travel. As long as Yue Baoyue remained with Su Yi, she would act as his protection charm. None wanted a bounty placed on their lives for offending the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint and Neo Zenith of the Utmost Purity Galaxy, only seeking to acquire secrets they may or may not even be able to use.

In their eyes, if Su Yi had secrets that were worth having for Supreme Sages, then the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint would have acted to acquire them. And Su Yi's current power level far surpassed ordinary Enlightened Sages. Interest dwindled. Life moved on.

The private auction was the main galactic event. Not only had the low-perfection Abstruse Spiritforce Pill sold for 121 Mystic-Heaven Essence Stones, which could be substituted for materials, legacies, and treasures to Heaven-Saint Growing Immortality.

The peak-perfection Abstruse Spiritforce Pill was sold for 1,330 Mystic-Heaven Essence Stones to Heaven-Saint Containing Creation—Tianshi Zaoxuan. After his victory in the game of Mystics between Zeniths, excluding Wei Wuyin, he was incredibly excited to spend his winnings elsewhere. In the end, almost all of it went into Wei Wuyin's pockets.

But not a single person would dare criticize his actions. Moreover, the others weren't here for those products. It was bound to end up in the hands of the Zeniths, especially since this private auction was a low-key attempt at pacifying their anger after dismissing their Alchemic Edict.

And shockingly, it worked.

Before those products were sold, Wei Wuyin had auctioned off his lineage products to the attendants, including the Zeniths. This was his showcase, his impromptu alchemic expo disguised as a private auction, and it functioned wonderfully. Immediately, products such as the Neo-Dawn Eclipse Pill Neo-Dawn Star-Seed Pill, Neo-Dawn World-Eclipsing Pill, Neo-Dawn Soul-Sea Elixir, Neo-Dawn Dual-Dao Elixir, Neo-Dawn Vortex-Zone Pellet, and Neo-Dawn Blood Howl Paste.

They were extraordinarily unique products suited for cultivating geniuses. While there existed products that could perform similar effects, they were unique in their quality and range of effects. Most importantly, the Neo-Dawn Vortex-Zone Pellet and Neo-Dawn Star-Seed Pill didn't exist.

Anywhere.

Everywhere!

Their effects weren't just amazing, they were one-of-a-kind throughout the Utmost Purity Galaxy. Potentially, throughout all of history!

The Neo-Dawn Star-Seed Pill was a cultivation method, not a pill. Moreover, it required extensive foresight, time, and energy to generate, and even then, allowing it to be in harmony with the world was wildly unimaginable, as every attempt at creating a nascent Star Seed would require external effort, leaving behind lingering artificial qualities that would always hold it back.

The Neo-Dawn Vortex-Zone Pellet was not made simply because cultivators at the Temporal Eye Phase could typically construct a temporal acceleration zone with some minor effort. This pellet made things frighteningly convenient, no longer requiring external treasures or cultivators to maintain.

The high-level exposure was enough to leave behind an unsaid yet thunderous revelation: these were products that could create world-defying geniuses! And with them, any cultivator could do so by themselves, without the effort of incredibly high-level cultivators.

For example, a False Worldly Domain Seed implantation would usually require at least a World Emperor, a fifth-stage Mystic Ascendant Realm cultivator at the Worldly Saint Phase, and that was for a false Domain Seed. It would also have a cost. But the Neo-Dawn Eclipse Pill's peak-perfection could generate a true Domain Seed, for Soul Idol Phase Cultivators, without any external help!

Heaven-Saint Extracting Divinity openly remarked: "These products could forever redefine a society's lower-levels of cultivation standards. If publicly introduced, our society's limits of cultivation will experience a rupturing growth."

This shook them all! Everyone present! WITHOUT EXCEPTION!

Now, the elites of the galaxy understood the value of the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint, believing that the Zeniths had added him to the Utmost Purity Galaxy solely to boost the society's foundation of cultivation to another level! How far-sighted! How brilliant they were!

If only they knew the truth…

In the eyes of the Heavenly Daos, Wei Wuyin had acted on behalf of its will, securing Su Yi's life.

-----

Original Dawn Palace.

"Haaaa!" A heavy exhale containing exhaustion, both physical, mental, and spiritual, echoed out in five distinctively different tones in synchronized harmony. Wei Wuyin plopped languidly into the soft cushions of his sectional couch, seemingly desiring to enjoy the cold sensation and seeking to merge with the comfortable sensation.

"Tired and hungry! Tired! Hungry! Rawr!" Ori complained as it tried mimicking Kratos' roar with little success.

"We deserve a reward!" Kratos demanded aimlessly. After spending time saving Hong Xuannu, a Resonant Soul Realm Cultivator, Kratos' thoughts were valid, but there was no one here who could give out any reward for their efforts other than themselves. Not only had Su Yi's matter diverted attention away from Yue Songli, but the subsequent events were exhausting to an extreme.

Not only did they save Hong Xuannu, but they were also pounded by an intense hunger from the introduction of Samsara Spiritual Energy. And while experiencing this hunger, they couldn't even handle it as the private auction required Wei Wuyin's complete attention, and all of their powers had to be readily available in case of a conflict.

Interacting with Supreme Sages was indescribably frustrating to Kratos. Why couldn't they deal with weaker cultivators? Weaker organizations? More insignificant matters?

"Tch!" King said.

Ori hummed agreeably!

"For us, rest is a luxury." Eden sighed, its spiritual voice was shockingly hoarse and threaded with exhaustion. Out of the four of them, including Little Defiant and Element, Eden had taken the greatest load of effort. The act of dismissing the Alchemic Edict required significant Akashic Eden Spiritual Force imbued with the Alchemic Stars, draining its Mystic Core to a new low.

Wei Wuyin had no words to console them. Their image and goals were lofty and grand, so they had to put in an equivalent amount of effort relative to their cultivation base to receive their desired outcome. If they were at the Resonant Soul Realm, all of these objectives would be solved with a simple snap of the finger. However, they sought the path of perfection within their means. This meant their steps were always heavy and impactful yet not as quick.

What other Mystic Star Phase Cultivator at the Mystic Ascendant Realm could inspire fear, respect, and admiration from Resonant Soul Realm cultivators? Everyone was showering Su Yi with endless praise for his incredible strength relative to his cultivation base, but few genuinely understood the truth of his feats.

He wasn't just demonically talented, world-defying, or heaven-defying, but a universe's first!

The title of Mortal Saint Alchemist had been etched into the history of the universe by his hand.

The Defiant classification of Solar Star size had been etched into the function of the universe by his hand.

The feat of surviving, no—conquering multiple floors of Hell as a mere mortal was made possible in the universe by his hand.

And despite all this, Wei Wuyin was still discovering new details of the world, including the Heavenly Daos. Lifting his two arms with great effort, he gave them a stern look as his sleeves slid down, exposing the two Bloodline of Sin tattoos.

After interfering with Su Yi's calamity event, the Karmic Luck Value that was swirling desperately to devise an escape had been drawn to him, absorbed through his Bloodline of Sin Tattoo via a twisting cyclone. This was a first for him.

Wei Wuyin was confused by the reason. Then, he theorized two potential outcomes. The first theory was that he had acted on behalf of the Heavenly Daos as an Empyrean, allowing him to absorb the expended Karmic Luck Value that was activated by Su Yi.

The second theory was that close exposure to Blessed siphoned Karmic Luck.

Their first theory relied on the functions of the Heavenly Daos' Blessed status, while the second theory was a function of the Bloodline of Sin Inheritor, thieving without a trace.

He was more inclined to believe the first over the second. This wasn't his first time interfering in matters of a Blessed, directly or indirectly saving their lives or those who had karmic ties, but this was the first time he had done so as an Empyrean.

Acting on behalf of the Heavenly Daos…

Were Empyreans designed to be envoys of the Heavenly Daos? However, the strange thing was that he hadn't felt any influence to act on Su Yi's behalf, only sensed the turbulent accumulation of Karmic Luck struggling to navigate the situation failingly. And when he recalled his motivations, he had done so to repay Su Yi and Yue Baoyue fully after the acquisition of the other Bai Xiu and the Wheel of Samsara's method of construction.

His advancement as a Heavenly Saint Alchemist would have been incredibly difficult without his Neo-Dawn Ascension Cauldron, and his creation of the Eye of Samsara was due to Su Yi's showcasing his Wheel of Samsara in battle. This was a case of generosity returned.

However, this development left another method by which to accumulate Karmic Luck Value: assisting Blessed. He wondered if this was limited to Empyreans or could Supreme Sages similarly harvest Karmic Luck Value?

The possibility that Karmic Sin and Karmic Luck were gathered into their Microheavens was verified by his Second Mind after investigating Hong Xuannu's Microheaven. She had no Karmic Sin, but had scant amounts of Karmic Luck Value that felt unbounded by any anchor or conduit like Blessed or a True Soul, kept in a cage like gas. This didn't make much sense, but if her ignition of her Resonant Soul had dispelled her Karmic Sin, then there was some logic to her actions of self-sacrifice for a Blessed.

But this containment was likely how the Maleficent-Chaos Sovereign lacked any outward Sinful Aura like other Ascended beings of lesser cultivation despite her numerous recorded atrocities.

"Huuuu! Haaaa!" Wei Wuyin inhaled and exhaled a wad of pure, enriched air from his lungs, lacking the slightest trace of turbidity. His body sank deeper into the soft comfort of the couch, treating it like his home with no foreseeable outcome of him leaving.

Just as he was about to enter a rare slumber, a knock resounded, originating from beyond his door.
