Collecting the corpse for the emperor, my cultivation base will skyrocket for ten thousand years!

Given his limited luck value, it's clearly unlikely that Lin Wudao could quickly become the Thirteen Seals Ancient Emperor with the help of the system.

Therefore, he first consumed 3000 golden dragons of fortune to raise the cultivation level of the Order Demon Embryo to the thirteenth-level Ancient Emperor Venerable level, and then relied on his strong foundation and resources to break through the Great Dao Title Tribulation.

In the past, the process of passing the Great Dao Title Conferment Tribulation was extremely dangerous and difficult; that was because one's foundation and physical body were not strong enough.

Now that his physical body, the Order Demon Embryo, has been elevated to a completely new level, and with the Heaven-Burial Copper Coffin protecting him, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to break through to the Thirteen Seals Ancient Emperor Venerable in one go.

at the same time!

Just as Lin Wudao was concentrating on his tribulation, Yun Tianshu and the others from the Sky-Piercing Holy Land were also anxiously waiting in the Panshi Fortress outside the Fallen Soul Abyss, their faces filled with deep worry and concern.

"So much time has passed, and Ye Motian still hasn't returned. Could it be that he really encountered the legendary Corpse Demon and something happened to him?"

Mo Panshan paced back and forth inside the fortress's demon palace, his eyes occasionally glancing towards the direction of Fallen Soul Abyss.

They had some reservations about sending Ye Motian to the Fallen Soul Abyss to clean up the battlefield, but since the Demon Lord of Time had specifically requested it and Ye Motian insisted, they had no way to stop him.

As expected, things went wrong after they entered the Abyss of Fallen Souls. Although the disciples of the Sky-Piercing Holy Land managed to escape, Ye Motian remained trapped inside.

To this day, no news has been released; this has left them all extremely worried, fearing that Ye Motian has met with misfortune.

After all, he has the supreme and mysterious Forbidden Dragon God behind him. If something happens to Ye Motian, they cannot afford to bear the consequences if the Forbidden Dragon God blames them.

For Yun Tianshu and the others, each day felt like an eternity, and every moment was an unbearable ordeal.

In contrast to their worries and fears, the Demon Lord of Time, sitting at the head of the Demon Palace, appeared very calm: "You all need not worry too much. As the saying goes, good people are always blessed."

“Young friend Ye is blessed with good fortune and has a powerful background, so he will definitely be fine; perhaps he encountered some opportunity or good fortune in the Abyss of Fallen Souls, which is why he was delayed.”

“I believe in him and he will return soon. You should also have faith in him.”

"Furthermore, even if he unfortunately encounters the legendary Corpse Demon in the Abyss of Fallen Souls, with the token I gave him, he should be able to avoid the disaster."

"Let's wait patiently..."

The Demon Lord of Time sat high above, leisurely sipping his tea and speaking with an air of ease and contentment.

She seemed to have complete confidence in Lin Wudao.

However, although he spoke in a high-sounding manner, he was secretly overjoyed: "If nothing unexpected happens, Ye Motian will definitely encounter the Corpse Demon; with his strength, he is definitely no match for the Corpse Demon."

"The Corpse Demon is ferocious and bloodthirsty, taking pleasure in enslaving those who have been granted titles on the Great Dao and creating corpse puppets. Presumably, Ye Motian has already become a corpse puppet under the Corpse Demon's command at this time."

"The Corpse Demon should be very satisfied with the servant I sent; in that case, I can pay off the debt I owed before."

"He probably won't come looking for me again..."

The Demon Lord of Time secretly tightened his grip on the teacup in his hand, and the pressure in his heart eased considerably at this moment.

The Corpse Demon had always been a sword hanging over his head, ready to fall and take his life at any moment.

In the end, he was nothing more than a servant under the Corpse Demon. Over the years, through his secret manipulations, he had sent many geniuses and powerful individuals to the Corpse Demon. If Ye Motian were included, he should be able to regain his freedom.

"What a pity for such a peerless genius. If he had been able to grow up, he would surely have become the most powerful ancient emperor in the Primordial Demon Realm."

"However, for my freedom, I have no choice but to sacrifice you; I hope you won't come to the Honggu Demon Realm in your next life."

The Demon Lord of Time's deep eyes were filled with coldness and cruelty.

If a man does not serve himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth!
What does sacrificing Ye Motian matter as long as I can break free from the enslavement of the Corpse Demon?
As for the interests of the Honggu Demon Realm, he didn't care about them at all. There were tall people to hold up the sky, and it wasn't his turn.

Moreover.

The great war between the Ancient Demon Realm and the Ancient Land of Gods and Demons has been fought many times, with neither side able to gain the upper hand. This time will surely end in the same way.

Before long, this war between gods and demons will end; then, everything will return to peace.

All he needs to do is stay at Rock Fortress and hold off the attack from the Ancient Land of Gods and Demons...

Rumble!
Just as the Demon Lord of Time was looking forward to a free life ahead, and Yun Tianshu and the others were filled with worries and anxieties, suddenly, a series of powerful thunderous sounds came from the direction of Fallen Soul Abyss.

Terrifying black clouds, centered on the Abyss of Fallen Souls, swept wildly outwards across the ten directions of space.

Before long, it enveloped the entire Rock Fortress; even other demonic fortresses were included.

At the same time, an unparalleled pressure and aura descended from the sky, making everyone breathless; the will of the abyss descended upon the Primordial Demon Realm at this moment.

This sudden scene instantly made the Demon Lord of Time stand up from his seat, his sharp eyes fixed on the direction of Fallen Soul Abyss, his eyes revealing shock and confusion.

"This is... the Great Calamity of the Abyss?"

Everyone frowned in unison, their eyes filled with surprise and doubt.

Although the Ancient Demon Realm still uses the same cultivation system as the human world, it has long been infiltrated and corrupted by the Abyss. The Great Dao Title Tribulation in the human world corresponds to the Great Tribulation of the Abyss here.

For a long time, no new Great Dao Title holders have been born in the Primordial Demon Realm; yet at this very moment, the aura of a great calamity has appeared in the Abyss of Fallen Souls, which clearly indicates that someone is undergoing tribulation.

"The only beings capable of undergoing the Great Tribulation of the Abyss can be creatures from the Abyss or beings from our Primordial Demon Realm. Could it be that the one undergoing the tribulation is Ye Motian?"

Mo Panshan stared in shock at the direction of Luohunyuan, his expression a mixture of shock and inexplicable delight.

If it is Ye Motian, then it proves that he is not in trouble, and may even have obtained great opportunities and great fortune in the Fallen Soul Abyss, just as the Demon Lord of Time said, and is now trying to break through to the Great Dao Ancient Emperor Venerable.

"Could it be a corpse demon?"

"Legend has it that the ancient and mysterious Corpse Demon has been entrenched in the Abyss of Fallen Souls. It's not impossible that he is undergoing tribulation; moreover, judging from the power and atmosphere of this abyss tribulation, he is no ordinary person."

Someone raised doubts.

The Abyss of Fallen Souls is inherently extremely dangerous and mysterious; no one knows what it contains. The one undergoing tribulation may not necessarily be Ye Motian.

"I hope it's him!"

"If it really is Ye Motian undergoing tribulation, then it's a wonderful thing; if it's the Corpse Demon, then it's terrible..."

Yun Tianshu's heart was filled with trepidation and unease. He clenched his fists and stared unblinkingly in the direction of Luohunyuan, his eyes filled with hope and anticipation.

At this moment, they were all praying frantically in their hearts that Ye Motian would be alright.

Compared to Yun Tianshu and the others, the Demon Lord of Time looked rather gloomy, his brows furrowing more and more tightly; he even felt a strange sense of unease in his heart.

Although he didn't know much about the Corpse Demon, the other party was already the Thirteen Seals Ancient Emperor; therefore, it couldn't be him undergoing the tribulation.

If it's not the Corpse Demon, then it can only be Ye Motian.

The thought that Ye Motian was undergoing the Great Dao Title Conferment Tribulation made the Time Demon Lord's face turn extremely ugly: "How is this possible? How come he is still alive? And he is undergoing the Abyss Tribulation?"

"Could it be that he wasn't turned into a corpse puppet by the Corpse Demon?"

"That shouldn't be the case. Given the Corpse Demon's nature and cruel methods, it would be impossible for it to let go of a peerless genius like Ye Motian."

"What exactly is going on……"

The Demon Lord of Time was utterly baffled!
At this moment, a sense of fear and unease inexplicably arose in his heart. Since the one undergoing tribulation was Ye Motian, he must have broken free from the control of the Corpse Demon.

Once he successfully transcends his tribulation and returns to the Rock Fortress as an Ancient Emperor of the Great Dao, he will likely uncover his previous schemes and seek revenge.

"It seems I need to prepare in advance to prevent Ye Motian from retaliating. He's no pushover, so I must make plans early."

At this moment, a strong sense of vigilance and caution arose in the heart of the Time Demon Lord. When Ye Motian was still the Ancient Emperor of the Human Path, he was able to forcefully kill a Twelve-Seal Ancient Emperor like Tian Juezi; if he were to become a true Ancient Emperor of the Great Dao, he would inevitably pose a great threat to him.

They even dared to lay a hand on themselves.

Thinking of all this, the Demon Lord of Time could no longer maintain his previous composure and calmness, and frantically prayed in his heart that Ye Motian would not succeed in his tribulation.

However, things didn't go as planned!

The things we most desire often turn out the opposite of what we hope for.

Lin Wudao's current foundation, resources, and physical strength are beyond what the Demon Lord of Time and others can imagine; although the Great Dao Title Tribulation is extremely dangerous, he has already accumulated rich experience in overcoming tribulations.

A month later.

Under the watchful eyes of Yun Tianshu and the others, the great calamity in the Fallen Soul Abyss finally disappeared completely, and the world returned to its previous tranquility.

"Thirteen consecutive tribulations to be granted the title of Great Dao, it shouldn't be the Corpse Demon undergoing the tribulation, right?"

"Hmm, the Corpse Demon can't be someone who isn't even a Great Dao Title Holder; it seems that Ye Motian is the one undergoing tribulation this time."

"Given his extraordinary talent, it doesn't seem impossible for him to pass through thirteen Great Dao Title Tribulations in one go."

"Look! Someone's coming out of the Abyss of Fallen Souls! It looks like... Ye Motian!"

……

An elder from the Sky-High Holy Land suddenly pointed excitedly towards the direction of the Fallen Soul Abyss; everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that after the great calamity of the abyss dissipated, there were indeed two powerful figures riding on demonic light.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived at Rock Fortress and appeared before everyone.

One of them was none other than Ye Motian, whom they knew well.

Upon seeing this, Yun Tianshu and the others were overjoyed, and their previously anxious hearts finally settled down.

They arrived in front of Lin Wudao as quickly as possible, carefully examining him from head to toe: "Young friend Ye, are you alright?"

"We were very worried when we heard that you were trapped in the Abyss of Fallen Souls, fearing that something might have happened to you; now that we see you have returned safely, we can finally rest assured."

"Otherwise, I won't be able to explain this to your master..."

Yun Tianshu said with a big smile.

"Don't worry, Holy Lord, I'm perfectly fine."

"Although I encountered some unexpected events during this trip to the Abyss of Fallen Souls to clean up the battlefield, the result was still good; at least it greatly improved my strength."

As he spoke, he looked toward the Time Demon Lord in the Demon Palace behind him, and then slowly walked over.

"Demon Lord, the cleanup of the battlefield took a bit longer this time, but fortunately we did not fail in our mission and have finally completed it."

Lin Wudao handed a storage bag full of corpses to the Demon Lord of Time.

"Hehe, I knew it. Young friend Ye is very fortunate and will definitely be fine. You have no idea how worried I was when I learned that you had an accident in the Abyss of Fallen Souls."

"Now that I see you, young friend Ye, return safely, I can finally put my mind at ease..."

"is it?"

"I wonder if the Demon Lord is worried that I'll die, or that I won't die?"

boom!
The moment he finished speaking, Lin Wudao raised his hand and unleashed a powerful sacrificial ritual, slamming it down on the Demon Lord of Time.

"Ye Motian, how dare you... you actually..."

Seeing Lin Wudao suddenly attack without warning, the Time Demon Lord, who had been on guard against him, was furious. Demonic light surged around him, and a black armor exuding the aura of time instantly appeared, attempting to block Lin Wudao's attack.

However, in Lin Wudao's eyes, the Demon Lord of Time was nothing more than an ant, and he didn't need to take him seriously at all.

With a single punch, the powerful force shattered the Time Armor on the Time Demon Lord's body, sending him flying.

Followed by.

Lin Wudao took a step forward and caught up with him, crushing his head with a single, powerful stomp right in front of Yun Tianshu and the others.

They even forcibly extracted the true spirit of the Demon Lord of Time.

"Young friend Ye, spare me... I didn't mean to... I..."

Terrified after witnessing Lin Wudao's terrifying power, the Demon Lord of Time could no longer maintain his composure and dignity. He immediately humbled himself and began to cry and beg.

However, Lin Wudao didn't listen to his nonsense. He suddenly brought his five fingers together and crushed his true spirit in front of countless people.

Someone like him doesn't even qualify to enter the Abyss Demon Banner; moreover, Lin Wudao also needs to establish his authority by killing the Demon Lord of Time.

hiss~
Everything happens in an instant.

Seeing this sudden and earth-shattering change, Yun Tianshu and the others around them were all stunned, staring blankly at Lin Wudao with shocked and disbelieving eyes.

That's how it looked; it seemed like I was meeting him for the first time...

At this moment, they were all terrified by the power that Lin Wudao had displayed; in particular, the fact that he had killed the Demon Lord of Time upon their first meeting was rather brutal.

"Demon Lord, do you have a grudge against the Demon Lord of Time?"

Yun Tianshu mustered his courage and asked cautiously.

Now that Lin Wudao has become the Thirteen Seals Ancient Emperor, even his way of addressing people has changed; his expression and posture have also become more respectful than ever before.

In response to the shock and curiosity of Yun Tianshu and the others, Lin Wudao nodded calmly: "There is indeed a grudge."

"The Demon Lord of Time dared to scheme against me, almost causing my death in the Abyss of Fallen Souls; of course I must avenge this."

"The token he gave me wasn't meant to protect me at all, but to guide the Corpse Demon to kill me; if it weren't for my luck and strength, I might have really perished in the Abyss of Fallen Souls."

Lin Wudao turned his head and looked at the Corpse Demon beside him with a half-smile.

"I killed your lackey, you're not going to seek revenge on me, are you?"

"Hey~"

"He's just a dispensable lackey. Killing him is no big deal. I have plenty of lackeys like him under my command. Losing one or two is no big deal."

The Corpse Demon waved his hand dismissively.

In his eyes, the Demon Lord of Time was nothing but a plaything, utterly worthless; even if he died, he wouldn't care in the slightest.

at the same time!

Hearing the conversation between Lin Wudao and the Corpse Demon, and recalling the Demon Lord of Time, Yun Tianshu and the others were immediately shocked. Their eyes turned to the Corpse Demon with terror.

Clearly, they had all guessed the identity of the Corpse Demon.

Ignoring the panic and fear of the crowd, the Corpse Demon turned to Lin Wudao with a smile and said, "You killed the Demon Lord of Time. The Demon Emperor of the Ancient Demon Kingdom is probably getting restless now."

"Be careful he doesn't come looking for trouble..." (End of Chapter)
