“Both of you, get inside the Blood Vein Ring. I know these kids let’s not intimidate them.”
“Yes Master.”
“For half a year you have been killing relentlessly, go inside and cultivate for a bit. I am very pleased with your progress keep working hard. Khepri has also broken through to the King God realm. Here!” Leylin praised them and gave them each few dozen drops of immortal demon blood.
While Ghost Hunter and Holy Spirit God entered inside Blood Vein Ring, Leylin stepped forward to meet his acquaintances.
Yalan and Terrace were both at the Second Sky of King God Realm. They are both Carthew subordinates and have a degree of familiarity with Leylin.
“Yalan, Terrace!” Leylin called but neither of them stopped. In fact, upon seeing him, they started to attack.
Yalan cultivated the Earth power Upanishad. As soon as she activated her God Domain, the land in her area suddenly twirled. Boundless earth energy immediately turned into a mist of dust, snatching over Leylin.
Terrace didn’t hesitate. Gusts flew around his body. The wind blades sparkled like shining knives, cutting hundreds of trees around him into pieces.
Once these two urged the God Domains, they could cooperate well which made people not be able to fly to the sky or to get underground seeking escape.
This is also why Carthew let them two enter the Extreme Purgatory Field together.
The two powers Upanishad exploded together. The gray dust rolled on the ground working with the tornados in the air, advancing towards Leylin.
Leylin raised an eyebrow and released his Space God Domain.
Shortly, the energies of earth and tornado were frozen.
He walked towards them nonchalantly and asked,”What happened? Why are you so aggressive?”
“Stop! Don’t come near us.”
She scrutinized Leylin and then said, “In the gravitational field, you and I talked. What clothes did I wore on the day we met?”
“White dress with golden stings hem and a three headed dragon on the back.”
Yalan calmed down, exhaling in relief. “So you’re real.”
Terrace looked like he had finally put the burden aside. He panted. “I thought it would come again. Fuck it. That freak has almost made me collapse mentally. So many illusions. I can’t help it anymore. I can’t differentiate reality from an illusion.”
“It seems you both are having a bad time.”
The two retrieved their powers. The God Domains disappeared. The area became calm again.
“You seem very guarded and probably suffered from some illusion attacks, who is so capable to make you two so miserable?”
“An old fellow at the Third Sky of King God Realm. He cultivates a peculiar power Upanishad that could create illusions. People, scenes, rocks, rivers, mountains; he can create everything you can name, just like a real world.” Terrace was still scared. “In his illusions, we were attacked by so many friends and even Sir Carthew. We almost got killed. Then, when we diverged, we would meet the illusion of each other. We would be ambushed wickedly. We are exhausted. He has been chasing us this entire time.”
Yalan felt helpless. “Although the warriors in the Extreme Purgatory Field are all at the King God Realm, we aren’t afraid of them when we join hands. However, that man has a special power. Until now, we haven’t seen his real face. We only heard his sinister laughter.”
Leylin rubbed his chin. “Third Sky of King God Realm? Illusion master? I suppose Soul Consciousness can’t detect him right?”
‘Interesting development… ‘
Terrace shook his head, unable to avoid a headache. “Yeah, He can avoid the Purgatory Token’s sensing. Thankfully, his power Upanishad’s lethality isn’t good. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have survived until now. However, after getting deceived so many times, we’re exhausted.”
“I’m sure he is around here even now. This cunning old fellow is like a resentful ghost that will never disperse. He hasn’t left yet.” Yalan gritted her teeth.
“Fuck him! He has targeted us for our Purgatory Token. It would help him survive!” Terrace cursed, facing the sky and yelling indignantly. “Hey fucking bastard, if you have the guts, come here and fight. What is interesting about your stealthy operations?”
“Hehehe. I like to hide the head and show the tail. I don’t dare meet people. You guys should show mercy to me.” A voice floated in the vast forest like a wind they couldn’t catch or locate.
“Interesting. Another prey at the Second Sky of King God Realm. Hehehe, I’m even more certain now that I could get out of this damn place.” The sound of the voice wound around many times, sounding close occasionally and far away at other times.
Leylin remained unfazed but the notification from A. I. Chip caused him eyebrows to frown.
‘Can’t locate him probably? It’s like he’s here one second and gone the next as if he can travel to another dimension. I can feel that he has even blocked the view of others outside. He must surely have some secrets, I need to investigate maybe it will be someone interesting.’
“This guy is very good at hiding. It seems he has this place scouted.”
“Yeah, scheming motherfucker! Conventionally with the Purgatory Token, we would be the hunters. But now, he knows where we are but we can’t detect him. We are under the light while he stays in the dark. We’ve become his prey.” Yalan frowned and pulled her hair. “This cunning old man is familiar with the Extreme Purgatory Field. Seems like he hasn’t been here only once. He can use his understanding of the topography and the special situation of each location to create illusions. If he didn’t understand the terrain here like it was the back of his hand, he couldn’t be so subtle.”
“Little girl, you’re right. Until today, I’ve been participating in the Extreme Purgatory Field five times. I’ve been the prey every time. However, I’ve been living for well over two hundred and fifty years. Hehehe, the Extreme Purgatory Field is a good place. If I haven’t reached the bottleneck of my realm and I can’t make a good use of the conditions here, I wouldn’t have to leave urgently. Perhaps I could give you a chance to live.” The inwardly evil-hearted ridicule arose timely as if he was about to ambush.
What he had said paled Yalan, and Terrace.
‘Five times? Now I am certain. There is no way anyone would come here just for the preferable cultivating environment. It’s obviously a good place but that’s only when Extreme Purgatory Field is underway and with each Extreme Purgatory Field competition there is a significant chance of death. For a Third Sky of King God Realm to be so greedy about staying here is very suspicious. What do you want from here?’
Participating in the Extreme Purgatory Field five times meant that he has been in the Extreme Purgatory Field for at least two hundred and fifty years. He was a condemned-to-death felon two hundred years ago.
According to him, if he hadn’t reached the bottleneck of the Peak of the King God Realm, he would stay for more.
“Listen brats, I’m a rather nice guy. Actually, I don’t need your lives. If you guys give me a Purgatory Token, I won’t continue watching you guys anymore. How does it sound?” The old man giggled in the dark, talking sinisterly. “Your little buddy is also at Second Sky of King God Realm. Kill him and you will have an extra Purgatory Token to give to me. I’ll let you guys go. What do you think?”
This old fellow said he was cunning and wicked enough to attempt to tear apart the relationship between Leylin and the other two.
Hearing his words, Yalan and Terrace became silent. Their eyes sparkled strangely.
Leylin on the other hand couldn’t care less about their thoughts.

Outside the Extreme Purgatory Field, Caligula and the five great feudal vassals were frowning as they had no idea what was happening in the crystal mirror lake.
A corner of the lake was covered by grey mist which concealed everything. Leylin, Yalan, and Terrace were there.
Carthew’s face darkened. The light sparkling in his eyes showed his fright. He turned and shouted at Morgan, “What is happening? The last time I saw my two soldiers was three days ago. Where did that gray mist come from? Why does it hinder our view?”
Morgan frowned as he couldn’t explain, either. “I’m not sure. Perhaps someone who knows the mysteries of the Extreme Purgatory Field has blocked the view from the outside, preventing us from seeing what is happening there.”
“Who is that?” Carthew snorted. “How are my two troopers?”
Shaking his head, Morgan answered begrudgingly, “I don’t know, either. I’m not the ones who designed this Extreme Purgatory Field. It is a mysterious natural formation that is intertwined with the will of earth and heaven. Before our King was throned, the Extreme Purgatory Field had existed. It is the most magical area of our divine nation. I don’t wish to learn all of its mysteries.”
“Seems like someone is very familiar with the Extreme Purgatory Field. He can affect the energy moving inside and stay hidden from our view. This one is experienced and cunning.” said Leona, frowning.
Everybody was curious. They concentrated and gazed at the lake down there but they couldn’t see anything.
Besides them, the master of the divine nation in the Dark Firmament Star also frowned, his face cold and harsh.
“Father, what is happening? Why can’t you see?” Zahira was surprised. “When the Extreme Purgatory Field opened, wasn’t it under your control?”
Caligula’s eyes sparkled with a strange light. He contemplated for a while before saying slowly, “I know how to open it but I did not make it. When I got the divine nation that year, the Extreme Purgatory Field had already existed. It has been there for tens of thousands of years! An Imperial Master of our divine nation had used the wonderful natural formation of the Extreme Purgatory Field to make it. The mysteries in that formation are the most subtle and magnificent ones. I’m not good at this evil stuff. Of course, I don’t know all of its mysteries.”
“Imperial Master?” Zahira was shaken. “The divine nation hasn’t had an Imperial Master for quite a long time.”
“It’s true. The Imperial Master position has been vacant for so many years.”
“The previous Imperial Masters of our divine nations were all famous. They had deep understanding of the nature of powers Upanishad. Our Source of power Upanishad Inheritance was created by them. Unfortunately, there hasn’t been an Imperial Master for several monarchies before my reign. Also, no one is qualified enough to hold this position.” Caligula sighed. “Usually, the Imperial Master will be in charge of the Extreme Purgatory Field. But we don’t have a suitable candidate so I have to do take charge myself. However, I’ve dedicated my life to the acme of power so I didn’t study about the heaven way techniques. My understanding of the Extreme Purgatory Field isn’t deep enough, so…”
“You don’t know the reasons why?”
“Yes. This Limitless Divine Mirror of mine was made by the last Imperial Master of our divine nation. If it couldn’t reflect the real situation of the Extreme Purgatory Field there, I have no other alternative.”
“What are the requirements to become the Imperial Master?”
“Top-grade blacksmith and alchemist. He must acquire a firm grasp of natural formations, understand the nature of powers, be able to refine and force Divine Grade pellets and tools. He must also be able to carve formations, barriers, and restrictions. And achieve the best merit for the divine nation.”

Extreme Purgatory Field.
The cunning, old man was still trying to drive a wedge between Leylin and the other two. “You know, I’m only one person here, so I need only one token. Even if I had more, it would be useless. I just want to get out of here alive. I don’t want to be imprisoned in the Extreme Purgatory Field. Our deal is quite simple. You kill that boy and give me his Purgatory Token. I will leave you alone. Simple, eh?”
He buzzed nonstop like a fly trying to manipulate Terrace and Yalan.
“You two are the Second Sky of King God Realm warriors and you coordinate well. If I have to kill you, I have to use a lot of my energy. Perhaps I can be hurt. But he is different. He has only one person. If you kill him for me, I don’t need to use my powers and you can get rid of me. We all end up happy. What do you think?”
“. . .”
That old fellow used cruel and sinister words which had poked right at their weakest nerves. His plan seemed to work. Yalan and Terrace looked touched, their faces uncertain.
Leylin squinted with a thoughtful expression as if he was musing on something.
‘You can hide from detection but my intuition and divination ability is something beyond your understanding.’
Yalan and Terrace looked at Leylin with confused and uncertain faces. The seductive voice of the cunning fellow continued to attack at their weakest points.
“Gotcha!”
Leylin suddenly grinned and he relaxed his tense nerves. He spread his right hands gathering star power and combined them, making a giant hand that could even cover the whole sky. That hand then furiously pounded towards a point in the sky.
Just like a breaking mirror, countless fragments of the illusions scattered under this attack.
Yalan and Terrace who were fighting the old man seduction woke up. The illusions entangling them lost its vitality and energy fluctuations.
A deep hole appeared, which was created by the bombarding of Leylin’s attack. Immense gray mist diffused from that hole.
A skinny, rickety figure appeared in that gray mist.
It was a sloppy, dirty old man with disheveled hairs and scabs. He was wearing a muddy, long grey robe. His face was also covered in dust but his eyes were sparkling and fiery.
“Fuck! Boy, how did you do that? How can you break my Thousand Fantasy Fields Domain.” The skinny old man floated in the gray mist like a wandering ghost. He looked at Leylin with a dark, gloomy gaze.
“What to play illusion with me!?”
Leylin’s eyes turned blood-red as negative energy gushed out from his body.
Scarlet halo bloomed from his body and reflected in his eyes, making him look more eccentric and evil.
Bloodthirsty, wild energy erupted like a volcano from his God Body. Desperation, bloodthirstiness, resentment, and other negative feelings multiplied. The ability to steal life force increased strongly.
In this moment, Leylin body transformed into a demon that crept out from the bottom layer of Hell. His body diffused the aura of termination. His existence seemed to destroy all creatures in the world.
At this moment, the negative sea, which was filled with evil and wicked negative emotions, engulfed the old man stunning him.
Although he was good at deluding people, the old man was affected. He seemed to be dragged into Hell. What he saw were all the bloody ghosts and demons that surrounded him.
His God Soul was affected so that he wouldn’t be able to create the illusions in just a short period. Right at this moment, the light sword slashed down. This sword made the old man stop making illusions and to focus on gathering energy to create the moving halos around his body for defense.
“That’s it? Come on, don’t disappoint me.”
Swoosh!
A wisp of divine light appeared. Leylin leisurely walked to that old man. Although he looked carefree his attention was towards any kind of special phenomenon that may occur. His soul flickered and the God Domain changed again.
“Confinement!”
Both of Leylin hands joined together, and a magical effect was created. He held the Space Domain tightly in his palms, making an incomparable space mystery. Massive light balls bombarded the old man instantly.
Crack Crack Crack!
Cracking sounds echoed from the space where the old man stood. It seemed that everything there was imprisoned.
The old man’s body stopped moving. Countless moving lights around him were frozen eccentrically.
Yalan and Terrace took advantage and used their powers hit him immediately. Explosions continued. Light sparks shot out from the old man’s God Body.
Shortly after, that old man looked like horrible with blood covering him entirely as if hundreds of sabers and swords had slashed him. He was in utter confusion with disheveled hair, giving him a funny and pitiful look.
Leylin didn’t attack after confining him, instead he focused his eye on him keeping full attention at his actions.
The old man spat out blood. However, his face glowed strangely.
“Here it is! A. I. Chip, begin scan!’
Immediately the old man disappeared like a ghost, leaving no trace. All of his aura, energy fluctuations, and life magnetic fields were gone. No one could detect him.
Yalan and Terrace walked over after the old man disappeared. They frowned while searching, touching their Purgatory Token to see if they could sense something.
