Chapter 226 Background of the Mission

"Little Black, how did you kill him in just one strike?" Ye Yun couldn't help but ask as the black ant returned.

"I don't know either, but before killing him, it seemed like those souls were isolated by some mysterious power." The black ant was also quite bewildered.

Isolated by some other power?

Ye Yun's heart skipped a beat, and he looked up at the boundless void. But other than countless wandering souls, he found nothing.

It's a pity that divine sense cannot be used in the game.

In a quarter of an hour, tens of thousands more Divine Race members died under Ye Yun's sword projection. Ye Yun was already killing numbly, and the Divine Race members still had their eyes red, relentlessly sending themselves to be killed by Ye Yun.

Suddenly, the vortex-like sword projection paused, then shattered into pieces and disappeared. An elder clad in a white robe, holding a scepter of royalty, slowly approached.

He was now six hundred yards away from Ye Yun. Stroking his long beard with one hand, he looked at Ye Yun with a smile. At this moment, a gem on the crown he wore flashed with a stream of light, and all the souls in the sky were instantly pulled in. In just one minute, nearly ten million souls vanished completely.

"Little brother, do you like this grand gift I'm giving you?" The newcomer said with a smile to Ye Yun.

"Heh, so we were all fooled by you. Everyone thought you were a benevolent person, but in reality, you were the most cunning one."

Looking at the approaching figure, Ye Yun sneered. Who would have thought that Mi Jia, the eldest disciple of the Divine Master, had a strength far exceeding that of the Divine Master.

"If she had been content, she would still be my master, but she shouldn't have set her sights on me. Moreover, in any world, it is the victor who writes history." Mi Jia chuckled faintly, the divine light emanating from him and the corpses covering the ground appearing so incongruous.

"Who exactly are you, and what is your purpose!" Ye Yun frowned as he looked at the few unconscious God Kings floating on white clouds several kilometers behind Mi Jia.

"Me? I am merely a clone of the Domain Spirit, who had been lurking beside Maria tens of thousands of years ago," Mi Jia said calmly with a smile.

"Tens of thousands of years ago, the Ten Directions Cosmos suddenly shifted, and the gates of each cosmos suddenly closed. The entire Cosmos underwent drastic changes. After it stabilized, everyone discovered that their respective worlds had also changed severely. The most serious change was in your Human Race world. As if specially favored by heaven, countless rare treasures appeared there."

"This caused dissatisfaction among the inhabitants of other worlds in the Tenth Cosmos. Subsequently, several major races joined forces and directly entered the Human Race world, plundering its rare treasures back to their own worlds."

"You probably know the rest," Mi Jia said, looking at Ye Yun, and stopped speaking.

I know? What could a young man from a modern technological civilization in his twenties possibly know! However, Ye Yun played along.

"So, the Divine Master was the leader of your Divine Realm's invasion of the Human Race?"

"Leader? Heh, if a captain commanding a thousand men is also a leader, then perhaps."

The Divine Race and the Human Race had been on good terms for generations, mainly due to the Domain Spirits of the two worlds. However, the strength of Domain Spirits was inherently tied to the destiny of their respective regions. Thus, after the cosmic upheaval, the Domain Spirits of each world could no longer suppress the beings within their own worlds. The Human Race, however, had a Domain Spirit whose strength had surged to an unimaginable level.

He remembered that battle; even with the combined might of the ten top races of the Tenth Cosmos, the experts above the God Emperor level were all slaughtered by the Human Race's Domain Spirit.

Although the other races obtained endless rare treasures, the sacrifices made were not something that could be compensated for by mere treasures.

"But it is undeniable that you Domain Spirits have benefited from this." Hearing Mi Jia's account, Ye Yun finally understood the background of this quest and formed his own judgment.

"Indeed, that is why I am giving you such compensation this time: over eight million divine stones, plus the lives and souls of tens of millions of my Divine Race kin!"

As Mi Jia spoke, the gem on his crown suddenly shone brightly, and a pill emitting a black halo appeared out of thin air, floating towards Ye Yun.

Heavenly Soul Martial Pill (Divine Grade) - After player consumption, the player's single-target attack will evolve into a dual-target attack. If the player's attack is physical, their attack will carry an additional 30% magical attack, and vice versa.

Hiss...

Ye Yun stared blankly at the pill, his heart filled with shock. He hadn't expected such a heaven-defying pill to exist in this game. If he were to consume it, with his current attack base, it would be an absolute sweep!

Moreover, and most importantly, the black ant's attack would also change with his own transformation.

"Ahem... well, seeing as you're so sincere, I'll accept it!" Ye Yun took the spiritual pill and directly threw it into his inventory.

This trip to the Divine Realm had yielded unimaginable gains!

"Elder Brother Pan and I are of the same root. I look forward to the day you awaken him. I will definitely come to your Human Race world to have a good drink with you all."

"Alright, your mission here is complete. I suppose you should be heading back. I won't disturb you further. However, I still hope you can spare these few God Kings, as my Divine Realm's strength was too severely damaged before."

With that, Mi Jia's entire body instantly disappeared.
