Over the past six days, with the primordial stone in her possession, the power of her bloodline has grown increasingly stronger, gradually becoming comparable to when her younger sister's seal loosened. While her sister's bloodline had been activated long ago, hers had only recently been opened. To reach a speed comparable to her sister's, which had been open for many years, in such a short time was enough to satisfy Ye Qingge.

After leaving the library, she went to her room to change into her hunting clothes before arriving at the main cabin door of the spirit ship.

Feng Yumeng had been waiting there for a long time. After greeting Ye Qingge, she stood at the door, waiting for the hunt to begin.

three minutes later

stab

The enormous hatch of the spirit boat opened, and the desolate wind from the wasteland blew in, ruffling Ye Qingge's long hair. This time, the two stood closer to the hatch.

As before, Feng Yumeng pointed her finger, and countless armor plates flew out, transforming into a huge shield-shaped spiritual weapon. The two of them leaped onto the shield and, under Feng Yumeng's control, flew into the distance.

While skillfully activating the Yin-Yang Lord skills granted by her divine authority, Ye Qingge looked Feng Yumeng up and down, and suddenly said, "Senior Sister Feng, judging from your aura, you should have broken through by now, right?"

Feng Yumeng's aura was on the verge of a breakthrough, even more restless than before. She was just one step away from reaching the Transformation Sea Realm.

While skillfully manipulating the armor plates to hunt and harvest Yin spirits, Feng Yumeng calmly said, "Yes, we're just a little bit short of resources. Once we return to Ning City to collect some resources, we should be able to start breaking through... Huh?"

As they were talking, Feng Yumeng suddenly sensed something, abruptly turned her gaze to the left, and her pupils immediately contracted.

On the left, a ferocious-looking beast had been lurking there at some point. From its silhouette, one could barely make out that it was a wolf-shaped beast, but it had been corrupted beyond recognition by the aura of the wasteland, clearly a degenerate beast.

Its entire body was twisted and mutated. The aura of the beast was not strong, and its cultivation level was only around the Divine Breath Realm. What caught Feng Yumeng's attention was an abnormality on the top of its head.

The beast, now completely corrupted, had some unknown power tainting its head. The erosion from the wasteland began to slowly dissipate, revealing its original silver-white fur. The dissipation was happening at a visible speed, which seemed to cause it great pain. It roared and charged at the two of them.

Just when they were less than three meters away from the two people

stab

A piece of armor flew through the air, slaying the strange beast. Feng Yumeng stared intently at the unusual feature above the beast's head for a while, then suddenly realized something, her expression turning serious: "The Central Plains Pure Saint Sect? Only the Central Plains Pure Saint Sect could possess such a method!"

"Jing Sheng Sect?"

Ye Qingge looked over curiously.

Feng Yumeng nodded and introduced, "It's an ancient sect in Zhongzhou, with a history almost comparable to my Canghui Sect, but it's far less powerful. It's mentioned in the records of the Imperial Academy. Its true rise has occurred in the last three years. I've heard they have methods to purify the eroded wasteland, just like this fallen beast... But what truly made them famous was their recent competition with two other major sects whose foundations are even stronger than my Canghui Sect for the Hundred Gods Stele in Zhongzhou."

"Even the Pure Saint Sect has arrived in the East... This is troublesome."

Ye Qingge looked puzzled, but after Feng Yumeng's subsequent explanation, she understood what she meant.

Through the perspective of the Yin God, she had seen the Canghui Sect use weapons similar to the Destruction Core, which had a tremendous impact on the world and made the erosion of the wasteland even more severe.

These sects, which are no weaker than Canghui Sect, obviously used some special means to observe this change. This time, they are probably here to hold Canghui Sect accountable and launch an attack!

Her mood grew slightly heavy. The Canghui Sect was about to face accountability from countless other sects. She lived in Ningcheng, which was under the control of the Canghui Sect. If the Canghui Sect suffered huge losses, the resources of the cities under its control would probably be strained. It seemed that the days ahead would not be easy.

While Ye Qingge was deep in thought and worry

ta ta ta

Countless chaotic footsteps sounded, and a sense of crisis enveloped Ye Qingge's heart. She suddenly came back to her senses and looked to the left. At the end of her vision, a large number of alien beasts corrupted and degenerated by the aura of the wasteland appeared. Judging from a rough look, there were probably no less than a thousand of them!

"Damn it, it's a beast tide!"

Feng Yumeng's expression changed drastically. She reacted even faster than Ye Qingge. She quickly formed hand seals, and countless armor plates flew and gathered at high speed, arriving at the "shield" beneath her feet. The entire "shield" instantly changed its appearance. The front was transformed into a rounded point, and its appearance was changed to a streamlined shape to reduce air resistance and facilitate further acceleration.

With Feng Yumeng unleashing her full spiritual power, the "Shield" reached an unprecedented speed, carrying the two of them rapidly towards the War Spirit Ship. At the same time, she used special means to notify the War Spirit Ship of the impending beast tide, urgently summoning all members back to the ship and requesting fire support.

The two were not far from the spirit boat, and in just ten minutes they arrived in front of it. Just then, a sudden change occurred!

bang

A violent aura rose from beneath the ground, and a corrupted beast with ferocious claws burst through the earth, charging fiercely towards the two.

The beasts possessed extremely strong auras, already reaching the strength of the Transformation Realm. Feng Yumeng had just activated her spiritual weapon to kill two beasts that were chasing after her, and only had time to activate a portion of her armor-plate spiritual weapon to defend herself when the beasts' attacks landed on the "shields" that had changed shape at their feet.

stab

With a slash of its claws, countless tough armor plates were torn apart, and the two fell from mid-air. Fortunately, Ye Qingge did not react badly. Even though she activated the Cloud Sword and came to her body, she flew on the sword.

However, after this delay, many of the beast tides from afar had already rushed closer. A large number of corrupted beasts swept in, separating Ye Qingge and Feng Yumeng. The short distance of less than 500 meters had become an insurmountable chasm, making it difficult for them to cross.

Danger came from all directions. Ye Qingge's pupils shrank suddenly. Without hesitation, she detonated a Yin Soul in the Netherworld Space that was at the Transformation Sea Realm. The vast power surged out and was transformed into pure power by the Yin God's divine authority, spreading in all directions.

In an instant, a large number of strange beast souls centered on her were shattered and torn apart, clearing out a large open space.

However, this is only temporary. In just a few breaths, the beasts from afar will replenish their ranks once more. This is only the initial attack of the beast tide; when the true peak of the tide arrives, escaping will be even more difficult.

But what's even more fatal is...

"The energy in the raw stone is almost depleted!"

Ye Qingge's expression was grim. This wave of beasts had brought about a surge of corrosive power on the wasteland. Originally, the power within the primordial stone was more than enough for her to sustain herself through the two-hour hunt, and there would even be some left over. But under the current surge of corrosive power, being able to last even two minutes would be considered good!

"No, it seems I can no longer hide my trump card of being a Yin God. If I die here, no matter how strong my methods are, it will all be in vain... I must fight my way out first."

A ruthless glint flashed in her eyes as she prepared to detonate the two Yin spirits again and unleash her divine power to fight her way out.

Just then, the strange beast that had attacked her and Feng Yumeng earlier was knocked back, unleashing countless corrosive forces. The already weak power of the primordial stone could no longer withstand the attack and was completely exhausted.

Ye Qingge's expression changed drastically. She directly detonated three Yin Souls at the Transformation Sea Realm. The surging power poured into the Yin God's divine authority. Before this power could be manipulated by her consciousness to activate the power of the Yin God's divine authority and forcibly dispel the attacking wasteland power, the bloodline in her body began to fluctuate violently in advance.

Wow

Countless golden rays burst forth from her body and surged into the primal stone to her astonishment. The primal stone, which had been completely depleted of power, began to function again, radiating a dazzling light and dispelling the corrosive power that was attacking from the vicinity.

"The Navigator's bloodline can actually replenish the power of the Primal Stone and resist the erosion of the wasteland... Wait, this Primal Stone."

Ye Qingge had just breathed a sigh of relief when she suddenly realized something, and her pupils contracted sharply.

Chapter 97 The Truth About the Navigator: History Begins Today

The fact that the Navigator's bloodline power could replenish the power within the Primal Stone should have been a good thing, but after careful consideration, Ye Qingge noticed something amiss.

"When we first boarded the War Spirit Ship, Senior Sister Feng said that Primal Stones are the most precious items in the world. Every Primal Stone mine is extremely difficult to find, and they are the foundation for the survival of countless sects in the wasteland. Ordinary cultivators using Primal Stones in the wasteland must protect them carefully, ensuring they are not damaged or stolen. But why can they carry the bloodline of the Navigator... or rather, why can Primal Stones help others survive in the wasteland, relying on the power of the Navigator's bloodline!"

Ye Qingge reached out and grabbed the necklace hanging in front of her neck. With a sudden burst of strength, she snapped the rope and threw it away.

Once outside the primal stone's protective range, the corrosive power of the wasteland had no power to stop it, yet it couldn't harm Ye Qingge at all. Her bloodline power, no longer drained by the exhausted primal stone, surged forth, forming a pale golden light that enveloped her. No matter how the external corrosive power swept over her, it couldn't touch her in the slightest.

This discovery made her face even paler, her body swayed slightly, and her breath became ethereal and unpredictable, rising and falling without any certainty.

Seemingly sensing Ye Qingge's change, the Yin God's divine power between her brows...

The demonic power stored within the divine authority stirred restlessly, quietly creeping out and sweeping towards Ye Qingge's brow. Above her brow, two yin-yang symbol-like marks, visible only to Ye Qingge, had one that had somehow turned pure black, shattering the holy aura Ye Qingge possessed under the constantly activating Heavenly Transformation and Righteous Qi.

She paid no attention to any of this, staring blankly ahead, her mind drifting back to past scenes.

"The essence of the Navigator's bloodline lies in purification. When I possessed the spirit, I saw the traces of being corrupted by the demonic seed on its back. At first, I didn't understand why, and I only had a vague guess, but now it seems to be true."

"Before boarding the War Spirit Ship and leaving Ning City, when Senior Sister Feng gave me the Primal Stone, it caused a fluctuation in my bloodline. I originally thought it was due to the special nature of the Primal Stone, but now it seems that's not the case..."

"Not only at that time, but also when Bai Yuxuan of the Misty Demon Sect ambushed my sister, he said that the bloodline of the Navigator is the foundation of the sect's existence. At that time, I wondered why a sect like the Misty Demon Sect, which was even stronger than the Azure Radiance Sect at its peak, could not establish its own city, and why they were so excited about my sister's bloodline. Now I understand..."

"Even earlier, when I first encountered the vengeful ghost, I experienced a hallucination that simulated my parents' disappearance five years ago... wait, five years ago."

Ye Qingge's mind was racing as she recalled Feng Yumeng's words when she left Ningcheng: "I remember Senior Feng saying that this batch of raw stone ore was discovered four years ago. The timeline... matches up!"

"No wonder my parents reacted that way when I showed reluctance to leave the city and showed resistance in the illusion. At the time, I thought the illusion was fake, but now I think my parents probably already knew that my sister's bloodline had awakened and they knew it was hard to hide, so they prepared to take my sister and me away from Ningcheng."

"But before I could leave, a car accident still happened... The car accident was fake; the real reason was probably that my bloodline was exposed. After sealing my sister's bloodline, I drew away the pursuers..."

The two yin-yang symbol on her forehead began to spin rapidly, and a sinister aura spread out, gradually enveloping Ye Qingge's entire body.

Memories of the past resurfaced, and the fog of the past was lifted layer by layer. Unbeknownst to her, Ye Qingge's eyes turned jet black, and the aura of the demonic seed surged out, with waves of demonic energy eroding her body, causing a tremendous change in her entire being.

Black vortexes spread across her body, and fine black lines appeared on her face. Seemingly influenced by the Yin God's divine power between her brows, even though she was being corrupted, Ye Qingge did not become twisted and grotesque like those strange beasts. Instead, the black demonic patterns on her pretty face added a touch of unusual beauty to Ye Qingge.

The black magic patterns appeared quickly and disappeared even faster, attracting a large amount of corrosive power from the wasteland, stirring up layers of storms that converged around Ye Qingge.

When these corrosive forces swept towards Ye Qingge, they did not cause her any harm. Instead, under the power of the demonic seed, they rapidly condensed into a black robe that adhered to her body. Protected by the power of her divine authority, her body did not undergo any special changes, but Ye Qingge's aura was completely transformed. She became eerie and alluring, like an elegant demonic noble, or perhaps a lord of the underworld, utterly different from her previous holy self.

The mutation was deepening, and a dangerous aura permeated the air. The surging tide of beasts was intimidated by Ye Qingge's aura, and a considerable area was forcibly separated around Ye Qingge, with not a single beast daring to approach!

Just as the demonic power within the Yin God's divine authority was about to complete its final transformation...

boom

The righteous energy that had been hidden deep within her body suddenly burst forth from its concealment, combining with the power of her bloodline. In a sudden eruption, it forcefully broke through the corrosive influence of the demonic seed. The corrosive robe she wore was instantly torn in several places.

A surge of power swept through Ye Qingge's body, causing her to shiver. Her consciousness snapped out of her previous state, and she realized the state of her troops, immediately activating the Heavenly God Transformation.

As the layers of divine transformation slowly unfolded, with the addition of divine power to encircle and suppress the demonic seed, its power was defeated step by step. In less than a minute, it completely collapsed and was forced back to the Yin God's domain by Ye Qingge. The yin-yang symbol that had been spinning wildly in black and white between its brows returned to its silver-white color.

The strange phenomena on her body quickly subsided, and Ye Qingge gasped for breath, her back already soaked with cold sweat, her face full of lingering fear: "That was close, I was almost corrupted by the power of the demonic seed... This demonic seed is such a great threat, it's practically impossible to guard against, and one careless move and my mind was affected!"

"My guess is just a guess. We need to conduct a detailed investigation before drawing any conclusions about the truth!"

Just now, as Ye Qingge's thoughts raced, she considered numerous possibilities, but ultimately it was just a guess, especially one influenced by the demonic seed—the darkest of guesses. Past history could serve as evidence to some extent, but ultimately there was no concrete proof to confirm the correctness of her guess; other possibilities also existed.

"Are the parents really dead? If not, where did they go? What is the navigator's fate? ... It's too early to draw conclusions before we get the real answers."

"However, having had this experience, we must take necessary precautions. When we get back, we should also have my younger sister begin her training, and be prepared for the worst-case scenario. In addition, when I return, I will also serve as the head of the East City Branch, and I can use the authority granted by the mission to begin investigating my parents' affairs."

Ye Qingge rubbed her temples. The wisp of demonic power contained within her divine power made her extremely wary, but she couldn't abandon it in the current situation.

Not to mention the three skills that her divine status granted her, which could be activated regardless of the difference in realm, she could also crush the spirits at crucial moments, unleash the power of her divine status, and unleash the power of heaven and earth to perform divine techniques comparable to the Lingtai Immortal Realm. This trump card was Ye Qingge's capital to be fearless at critical moments. Even knowing that there were great risks involved, she had no choice but to continue using it until she became strong enough.

"This is a dark age. If the reality is indeed as dark as I predict, then there is no need to worry about the impact of possession on reality... Let's change history starting today!"

The words Yan Yishuang had spoken to her when her sister was attacked at Ningcheng Hospital came to mind. A wicked smile appeared on Ye Qingge's lips, just like An Lanmeng's signature smile. She suddenly understood An Lanmeng's feelings.

The sects and factions on the wasteland survived only because of the existence of Originium. If her guess was correct, then no sect in this world would escape destruction. Looking around, she would find enemies everywhere; surrounded by no one as an ally… This would likely push her down a path where the entire world is her enemy.

During the possession period, Ye Qingge was extremely cautious, even refraining from possessing Su Qing'er and Feng Lingxiu for a time, precisely because she feared it would affect reality. But if reality had already become so dark, there was no need to consider it further. She would simply find the origins of these sects, one by one, and crush them one by one.

Even if history changes, could it be worse than the predicted outcome?

Buzz

Within the Netherworld, a faint fluctuation emanated, instantly bringing Ye Qingge back to her senses. With a slight thought, she modified her options, transforming the power of the three exploding Sea Transformation Realm Yin Souls into nourishing energy, which gradually flowed into her body.

The surging power came from the divine authority. As soon as it appeared, it was tamed by the perfected Soul Devouring Technique and absorbed inch by inch into its own power. Finally, through the operation of the Primordial Dao Scripture, it truly transformed into Ye Qingge's own power.

It sounds complicated, but it only takes a few breaths.

Ye Qingge was already on the verge of breaking through to the next realm. The power of the Netherworld Space was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. Under the surging power, the spirit within her body suddenly changed and underwent a transformation.

A breath of divine energy enters the abdomen, and the foundation of Dao is naturally formed in the dantian.

Having learned from Feng Lingxiu's breakthrough experience, Ye Qingge's breakthrough was incredibly skillful. Having undergone two enhancements—the Primordial Dao Scripture and the Yin God's Divine Duty—she was far stronger than cultivators of the same realm. The expansion and contraction of her inner energy resembled the breathing of a deity. At the moment her power reached its limit, it transformed into a golden divine breath that surged into her lower dantian, streaking across the sky like a meteor and illuminating the entire lower dantian with a bright, clear light.

Within the lower dantian, an endless, dark green sea of ​​bitterness enveloped and swept across the entire dantian, eerily calm, deathly still, without the slightest ripple. Until the appearance of the god within the body, the entire sea of ​​bitterness seemed to be drawn by an unknown force, and began to surge and churn.
