“Finally out.”

Lin Yuan’s eyes slightly narrowed, savoring the breath of freedom.

Even before his arrival, Xiahou Yuan had already been suppressed for five years.

Lin Yuan himself had spent twenty years on the eighteenth layer underground.

During those twenty years, the first ten were the most torturous, constantly suppressed by six black chains.

The next ten years he escaped the clutches of the black chains, but still had to endure the omnipresent suppression deep within the Great Abyss.

Twenty long years without freedom, without entertainment, only endless darkness and cold.

If replaced by the evolvers from the Main World who were merely a couple hundred years old, their state of mind would probably have collapsed already.

This had nothing to do with strength; it was purely a test of will and spirit.

Fortunately, Lin Yuan had traversed it three times, his mental endurance sufficiently honed.

Only then could he support himself.

And walk out in the most secure and safest way.

Twenty years ago, Lin Yuan thought of multiple ways to escape suppression, not just one.

Besides operating on his own vital blood and energy to erode the black chains, there were several other “shortcuts.”

Such as voluntarily activating the “Soul Out-of-body Parasitism Skill,” allowing his primordial spirit to escape and seek a new host.

Tianjian Zi had placed multiple seals on Xiahou Yuan’s physical primordial spirit. Xiahou Yuan couldn’t break through, but that didn’t mean Lin Yuan couldn’t.

However, the escape of the primordial spirit carried great risks, and the new host might not be compatible with the primordial spirit.

Thus, Lin Yuan eventually chose the most tormenting method.

The most tormenting, but also the safest and most complication-free.

“Breathe a few more times.”

Lin Yuan sucked dry the Heavenly Earth Vital Energy within a hundred miles, feeling his body moisturized as if drought-stricken land met sweet rain.

On the eighteenth layer of the Great Abyss Ground, Lin Yuan spent ten years to recover to the peak of the Ninth Realm, which was Xiahou Yuan’s full strength. However, breaking the gate of the eighteenth layer had exhausted some of his power; now that he had the chance, he naturally continued to recover.

After all, Xiahou Yuan’s peak strength did not represent Lin Yuan’s peak strength.

But for Lin Yuan, the strength of the Ninth Realm peak already made him fearless.

The same knife, in the hands of an ordinary person versus a master of the blade, the deterrence is naturally different.

With Lin Yuan’s mastery and control of power, alongside his numerous secret techniques…

If Tianjian Zi from twenty-five years ago dared to appear before him, he would be suppressed within dozens of moves.

…

Compared to Lin Yuan’s joy of escaping,

the guardians led by Zhao Si were trembling and weak at the knees.

My God.

Who did they see?

Xiahou Yuan from twenty-five years ago, the legendary demon who oppressed the people of the Five Domains?

Could they face someone like that?

Zhao Si’s mind was a mess.

These guardians couldn’t even handle the remnants of the Demonic Tao, let alone the legendary demon himself.

“It’s over….”

Zhao Si sat down on the ground.

Without the thought of running away.

Are you kidding?

Even though he didn’t know the current state of this legendary demon,

even if weak, facing them, small fries from the Third and Fourth Realm, a mere glance would suffice.

If they turned to run now, it would only hasten their deaths.

Zhao Si and the other guardians bowed their heads, not daring to even glance at Lin Yuan, afraid to catch the attention of this great demon.

…

Miles away,

the protector, Nuan, who was about to retreat with a group from the Demon Crowd, noticed the disturbance at the entrance of the Abyss.

She subconsciously looked back to investigate.

“My lord…”

Protector Nuan was instantly stunned.

Even after twenty-five years of not seeing him, she recognized at first glance the towering figure standing at the entrance of the Abyss.

“My lord…”

The other members of the Demon Crowd widened their eyes.

Among them, many had never seen Xiahou Yuan, but since protector Nuan was so sure, no one doubted it.

Woosh.

Protector Nuan didn’t think twice; she transformed into a ray of light, rushing towards the entrance of the Abyss.

In just a few breaths,

Protector Nuan arrived in front of Lin Yuan.

At that moment, she was absolutely certain; the man before her was Xiahou Yuan, the once chieftain of the Five Domain Demonic Path, a legendary demon.

“Greetings, my lord.”

Protector Nuan, with surging emotions, didn’t even think about how Lin Yuan came out, she kneeled down and excitedly spoke.

“Greetings, my lord.”

Seeing this, the other demons who had rushed over also knelt down in succession.

“Nuan Shu ah…”

Lin Yuan glanced at protector Nuan and casually said.

In Xiahou Yuan’s memory, Nuan Shu was a child he had picked up, who had followed him since her youth.

Because of this,

when Xiahou Yuan was suppressed and the demon chiefs scattered, only Nuan Shu thought about how to rescue her lord.

In terms of loyalty, protector Nuan could be called the most dedicated among the demons.

Though for demons, loyalty was the most meaningless thing.

Initially, Xiahou Yuan was able to command the chiefs of the Five Domain Demonic Path not because of loyalty, but because of absolute power.

And more so because of his invisible suppression over all the demons.

Especially the latter.

…

A hundred miles away,

a sword light rushed forward rapidly.

“These damned remnants of the Demonic Tao, they come every so often.”

Jiang Jianke was filled with anger.

As a superior being at the peak of the Eighth Realm, stationed in the cold, bitter land of the North Domain Abyss, he was already displeased.

After all, the Heavenly Earth Vital Energy near the North Domain Abyss was sparse, staying here too long, let alone advancing further, it was already not easy to maintain his current realm.

And this was more acutely felt the higher one’s realm was.

Had it not been for Tianjian Zi personally speaking out and promising those few rewards, Jiang Jianke would not have come here.

Even so, Jiang Jianke would not foolishly stay at the entrance of the Abyss, but distanced himself from the Abyss, finding a secluded place a hundred miles away for seclusion.
