After passing through a heart demon tribulation, Yu Zhibo felt his divine soul become even purer, and his use and manipulation of law energy became more sensitive and natural.
"Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
Yu Zhibo snapped his fingers, and with a "bang," a shadow clone appeared beside him, its expression calm and its eyes indifferent.
During the use of the shadow clone, Yu Zhibo keenly discovered that a wisp of his divine consciousness separated from his sea of consciousness and formed a new individual in the outside world by outlining his own energy.
It was equivalent to extracting a trace of all of Yu Zhibo's genetic abilities and then granting the separated divine consciousness an independent personality. This clone possessed a weakened version of all of Yu Zhibo's abilities. However, unlike the original shadow clones, the stronger the clone, the more divine consciousness it required to be separated, otherwise, it would be difficult to control the abilities it possessed.
Of course, although the clone had independent thoughts, Yu Zhibo still had absolute control over it.
The fundamentally different birth principle of the clone caused Yu Zhibo's face to show a hint of contemplation.
Soon, he realized that this was because he did not have a sequence core, so the method of clone birth had changed.
This shadow clone was at the A-rank 99th tier and possessed S-rank law comprehension. Apart from not being the main body, it was not much weaker than he was at level ninety-nine.
Yu Zhibo said, "Try using the Flying Thunder God Technique and go to Earth. The child has lost their mother, and the father cannot be lost too. You will be responsible for teaching them and helping the Shenhua Bureau deal with external crises."
This was unavoidable. He was already S-rank, and Earth was not enough to accommodate his existence.
The shadow clone nodded slightly, brought its fingers together before its chest, and disappeared from the spot, turning into an afterimage.
Yu Zhibo closed his eyes again. Just as he was about to continue cultivating, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his divine soul.
Yu Zhibo's eyes snapped open, and a look of disbelief appeared in them: "How is this possible!"
Just now, he had sensed that the clone he had sent to Earth had been killed.
As soon as the clone arrived on Earth, it saw a terrifying beam of light descending from the starry sky, which ignored the defense of the Dragon Country's fortune shield and annihilated it completely.
"Is it because he had my unique S-rank divine soul imprint on him?"
Yu Zhibo gritted his teeth, finding it very troublesome.
Undoubtedly, the terrifying beam of light was emitted by the Zhou Tian Star Array, which was set up by an unknown existence to protect the entire solar system.
Within the solar system, anything from the outside that exceeded S-rank would be completely annihilated.
Although the clone's rank was not S-rank, the main body was a genuine S-rank existence. The main reason for triggering the Zhou Tian Star Array's attack was the trace of S-rank divine soul characteristics contained within it.
As for why existences like Ape Demon and Xuan Li were not annihilated, Yu Zhibo speculated that it was because they had reshaped their divine souls on Earth, thus not triggering the Zhou Tian Star Array's defense mechanism.
Otherwise, with so many S-rank existences in the Eternal Night World, if every existence sent avatars to invade Earth, Earth would have been destroyed long ago when the first spatial wormhole appeared.
"It seems I can only meet my family and friends when I ascend to the Upper Realm," Yu Zhibo sighed, immersing his consciousness into the Pure Land space. Seeing the evolving figure floating in the air made him feel a little better.
Fortunately, his wife was still by his side.
Yu Zhibo smiled lightly, cast a lingering glance at Bai Chanyi, and closed his eyes again.
Time flew by, and five years passed in the blink of an eye.
"System, open personal panel!"
In the Golden Dimension Space filled with endless golden energy, Yu Zhibo opened his eyes and issued a command to the system.
With a swish, the personal panel appeared in his mind:
[Host: Yu Zhibo
Gender: Male
Age: 31
Rank: Nascent Soul Stage
Tribulation Count: 129
Divine Soul Purification Rate: 6%]
"It's still a bit slow!"
Yu Zhibo sighed, his expression quite depressed.
Ever since he passed the first heart demon tribulation, a [Divine Soul Purification Rate] had appeared on the system panel, which allowed Yu Zhibo to understand that to advance to the Void Return Stage, passing the lightning tribulation was key.
The prerequisite for safely passing the lightning tribulation, in addition to the strength of the law world controlled, was to increase the purity of the divine soul. The higher the purity, the stronger the laws controlled, and correspondingly, the greater the probability of passing the lightning tribulation.
When cultivators absorb law energy, they become contaminated with unknown impurities due to guiding the law energy. This impurity can only be removed by experiencing a heart demon tribulation.
"Five years have passed, I wonder how Little Golden Crow is doing," Yu Zhibo smiled, preparing to go to the Boundary Vein Land to check on Little Golden Crow.
As he was about to set off, a scene of a giant turtle carrying land flashed through his mind.
"Hmm?"
Yu Zhibo was stunned for a moment, then his brows furrowed deeply.
At his current realm, all premonitions were not without reason. Could there be an unknown opportunity on the immortal mountain carried by the giant turtle he encountered in the Eternal Night World over a decade ago?
"Forget it, it wouldn't hurt to go and see."
Yu Zhibo temporarily gave up the idea of going to the Boundary Vein Land to play with Little Golden Crow. With a thought, he used the Flying Thunder God Technique and disappeared from the spot.
Eternal Night World.
The sky was still filled with endless gloomy, dark red thunderclouds. Yu Zhibo stood in mid-air, his terrifying S-rank aura released without concealment.
Cracked earth, continuous drizzle, and small rivers formed by the converging rainwater.
This was the most common scene in the Eternal Night World, which brought a hint of nostalgia to Yu Zhibo's eyes.
"The Eternal Night World is boundless, with countless folded spaces. I don't know where that giant turtle has gone."
Yu Zhibo stood with his hands behind his back, randomly chose a direction, and shot off into the distance like lightning.
"Roar!"
As he passed a mountain range, a terrifying roar scattered the thunderclouds in the sky. A black-scaled giant dragon broke through the mountain ridge and attacked Yu Zhibo. The terrifying extreme yin power surged towards him, instantly freezing many affected Eternal Night beasts into black ice shards, which shattered on the ground.
This black-scaled giant dragon possessed S-rank strength, but its divine soul was already extremely impure. Apart from occasionally maintaining its sanity, it was mostly in a state of madness.
And unfortunately, Yu Zhibo happened to encounter it.
"Strange, why does this black dragon feel a bit familiar?"
Yu Zhibo's face showed confusion. The next moment, the power of the Five Elements Small World was added to his body, and he slapped the dragon's head fiercely.
The dragon was ten thousand feet tall. In front of such a giant dragon, the 1.9-meter-tall Yu Zhibo was incredibly small.
However, the moment he swung his palm, the space and ground within a radius of tens of kilometers were shattered, and the black dragon's body also crumbled inch by inch, eventually turning into dust.
S-rank also had differences, especially for existences like the black dragon, which were broken due to the Eternal Night World's flawed laws and had lost their sanity, representing a weakling with only a nominal rank.
The S-rank creatures in the Eternal Night World, even if they had condensed a small world within their bodies, were also flawed due to the broken laws of this place. Therefore, Yu Zhibo naturally killed it with ease.
"Roar~"
After the black dragon died, its divine soul did not perish, transforming into black mist and attempting to escape as a miniature black dragon.
The moment he saw the miniature black dragon, Yu Zhibo finally seemed to remember something and showed a slight smile, "So it was you, you wicked dragon. I'll kill you for scaring me back then!"
He flicked his finger from a distance, and the terrifying Yang law enveloped the black dragon's divine soul, annihilating it completely.
