You didn't break your promise.

Having obtained what he wanted, he readily let the three members of the Snow God Pavilion leave, without adding a single unnecessary threat, remaining extremely friendly throughout.

For the next period of time, you carefully avoided the demonic mother and son, focusing on your cultivation in the attic.

Three months later, Gu Wudao brought you some news.

[The Abyss of Demons is about to open, and the Demon Child Trials of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect will begin simultaneously.]

The Demon Prince is the future successor to the Demon Lord. Although he is also selected within the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, he differs from the sect's young master.

In short, the Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect manages the sect's affairs, while the Demon Lord makes decisions in the event of major incidents.

Within the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, including the sect leader's lineage, there are eleven factions, forming the current eleven inheritance sequences.

Gu Wudao is undoubtedly the first in the sequence.

Because of his overwhelming strength, the other ten lineages jointly chose to hold this Demon Child selection within the Demon Abyss.

They naturally didn't want a mere youngster to overshadow everyone else, nor could they allow all the power of discourse to fall into the hands of one person.

[Furthermore, it's worth mentioning that the current Demon Lord and Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect are none other than Yin Wushuang and Gu Jiuyuan.]

Gu Jiuyuan is Gu Wudao's adoptive father.

[As for why the Demon Abyss was chosen?]

[The unique assessment mechanism within the Demon Abyss is naturally the key factor.]

[First, the trial requires two people to participate, which is likely the sect assessment that Gu Wudao mentioned before.]

Secondly, the Demon Abyss is divided into two levels: the upper level, the Turbid Abyss, and the lower level, the Profound Abyss.

Both levels have cultivation level restrictions: the Turbid Abyss restricts those below the Nascent Soul stage, while the Profound Abyss restricts those below the Deity Transformation stage.

[Finally, and most importantly.]

The ranking in this competition will not be determined by the strength of any one individual.

[The Turbid Abyss is rich in a peculiar substance called "Sun Wheel," which resembles starlight and burns like flame.]

[The Xuan Yuan region is rich in a substance called "Moon Wheel," which has properties completely opposite to those of the Sun Wheel.]

Only when the sun and moon are in conjunction can the "Chaos Wheel" be complete. This wondrous artifact can help cultivators comprehend the ultimate realm of techniques, and only a complete Chaos Wheel counts as valid points.

Therefore, the outcome will be determined by whichever side loses, whether they enter the Turbid Abyss or the Profound Abyss respectively.

Nestled lazily in Gu Wudao's arms, you listened to these rules, and a mischievous smile curled at the corner of your lips.

"Old Gu, aren't you afraid I'll deliberately set you up?"

You know that his desire to seize the title of Demon Prince isn't for the name itself, but rather to obtain the Demon Lord's inheritance.

[To this day, you still don't know exactly what kind of cultivation technique Gu Wudao practices, but it seems completely different from the techniques of the other members of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.]

Most importantly, it's extremely powerful.

With your current strength, even in a battle against someone of the same realm, you would still be utterly crushed by him.

This kid is definitely hiding some incredible secret; you swear you'll dig it out sooner or later!

"Don't be afraid."

Gu Wudao remained calm and composed.

【"oh?"】

You turn around, wrap your arms around his neck, and as your eyes meet, you ask with a smile:

Why aren't you afraid?

"Because if I fail to secure the position of Demon Prince, I will thank you properly afterwards."

Looking into the boy's calm gaze, you felt inexplicably guilty.

At the same time, I was also itching to retaliate.

A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years; a petty person takes revenge from morning till night.

You have a flexible moral bottom line; you can be a gentleman or a scoundrel. Just wait...

【"Hmm?"】

[As you stare at the suddenly enlarged handsome face before you, the grand pronouncements in your mind are instantly shattered.]

The next instant, the world spun around.

When you come to your senses, you're already beneath a soft, luxurious quilt.

【"Huh?"】

Looking at the intricately carved bed before you, you showed surprise and looked at Gu Wudao with curiosity.

"When did a bedroom appear here?"

"It's been like this before."

Gu Wudao remained calm, revealing not a single flaw even under your suspicious gaze.

【"oh!"】

You nodded, pretending to think as you inched away.

[The next moment, he was pulled back by a tremendous force.]

You glared hatefully at the boy pressing down on you. He was completely clean, without even a wisp of pink mist. You gritted your teeth and said:

"You wicked demon, I'll fight you to the death sooner or later!"

【"Hehe~"】

Gu Wudao's voice carried an undisguised hint of pleasure.

"Then I will await you, righteous immortal."

【"Ugh!!!"】

Ah, it's so tough...

【...】

[That kid Gu Wudao explained the function of the Chaos Wheel beforehand, probably to prevent you from slacking off.]

[He also promised that if you help him defeat the Demon Child, not only will the Chaos Cycle be yours, but he will also help you with something within his power.]

Listen to that, it sounds so nice.

Do what you can!

What does "within one's power" even mean? Isn't it all up to Gu Wudao to decide?

This little brat from the demonic path is pure evil.

But while having fun and joking around are fine, don't gamble with opportunities.

You must try your best to obtain as many Chaos Wheels as possible. The "Ultimate Return to Nothingness Technique" is definitely a powerful weapon for you in the Nascent Soul stage, and you are unwilling to give it up easily.

[After all, you still possess the Eternal Radiance Temple's secret technique, the "Demon Devouring Spirit Evolution Technique," which you obtained from Nangong Jie; naturally, you should test it out.]

[If you can master this technique, when you go to the border to hunt demons, the six Dharma Images will greatly increase your efficiency.]

[Of course, this is on the premise that your spiritual root can break through to the Heavenly Spiritual Root.]

Although there's no pink mist arriving yet, fortunately, the "Twin Shining Spirit Transformation Chapter" has reached its peak, and I have an energetic Nascent Soul Peak cultivator assisting me day and night.

The progress of developing spiritual roots hasn't fallen too far behind.

"Seeing you sitting in front of the mirror, staring blankly at a hairpin in your hand," Gu Wudao's impatient voice finally rang out.

"Not ready yet?"

"Oh... all done."

You secretly pursed your lips, then with a flash of inspiration, the hair ornament materialized effortlessly at your fingertips.

Gu Wudao narrowed his eyes, his tone quite unfriendly.

"Didn't you say that it takes women half an hour to get ready?"

【"yes!"】

You met his gaze with unwavering confidence.

"Half an hour has passed, hasn't it?"

【"Lin Qingyu!"】

"I'm here, my husband~"

"You're great!"

"Thank you for the compliment, I understand."

【"......"

Lin Qingyu vs. Gu Wudao, 1 to 99, currently holding a slight advantage...

...

(I can't take it anymore, writing five chapters a day is too exhausting. After testing myself these past few days, four chapters a day is definitely my limit. Writing an extra chapter is too painful and makes me feel mentally exhausted.)

(Resuming four updates a day...)

(The morning update schedule remains the same, around 12 PM, and the evening update is around 7 PM.)
