“One! Sword! Split! The! Heavens!”
The Divine Dragon Empress’s voice rang clearly in the ears of those Sovereign Realm experts.
Then, they saw a gigantic divine sword swinging right toward them.
If it were just an ordinary sword strike, dodging it would have been a piece of cake for them.
But the Divine Dragon Empress’s sword was so massive that they had no room to evade whatsoever.
In that moment, despair filled their hearts.
They realized that even as Sovereign Realm experts, there was still no way for them to avoid this terrifyingly powerful strike.
For them, that was undoubtedly fatal.
They struggled desperately to fight back, but that dreadful sword still came crashing down solidly upon them.
Boom! Crash!
A fierce and explosive sound echoed at that moment, and then those Sovereign Realm experts simply fell silent.
In this state, the Divine Dragon Empress’s strength might not have matched Ye Wushuang’s, but it was still more than enough for her to kill these Sovereign Realm experts.
And because of that, one by one, they died at her hands.
With their deaths, the entire Fire Prison fell quiet.
Their bodies didn’t even need to be disposed of by Ye Wushuang and the Empress; the flames of the Fire Prison burned them away.
For Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress, that undoubtedly saved them a lot of trouble.
And because of that, they were even more satisfied with this place.
“Then… let’s go into seclusion here!”
“Agreed.”
Right now, the Fire Prison was relatively very safe, so there was no problem at all with Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress entering seclusion here.
The Divine Dragon Empress continued to cultivate the ‘All’ Character Secret, seeking to master more laws of power.
Ye Wushuang, on the other hand, needed to improve his physical strength and raise his cultivation base, thereby comprehensive upgrade his combat effectiveness overall.
So, after cleaning up those enemies, neither of them hesitated and immediately immersed themselves in seclusion.
Ye Wushuang, in particular, took out a massive amount of resources and began absorbing them like crazy.
When he absorbed resources, it looked like a whale gulping down the sea – he consumed a huge quantity all at once.
The sheer speed of his absorption was frightening just to witness.
But even so, their strength didn’t increase all that quickly.
On the contrary, the further they progressed, the slower his improvement became.
Especially now that Ye Wushuang’s focus wasn’t just on his cultivation realm but also on his physical strength – that made things even more different.
At this point, Ye Wushuang’s physical strength was already incredibly formidable, even completely surpassing the physical power he had previously cultivated while using the Divine Dragon Empress’s body.
His physical strength was now on the verge of touching the Law of Force.
Under these circumstances, he naturally needed to enhance his body’s toughness further, allowing him to truly master the Law of Force and reach the level where “pure force overcomes all techniques.”
And because of that, the vast quantities of resources Ye Wushuang absorbed all went into his physical body.
And his physical strength grew wildly.
This growth wasn’t just from the Eight-Nine Mystic Art, but also from the Undying Mystic Art, and even more so from the Divine Dragon Mystic Art.
These techniques made Ye Wushuang stronger, from his flesh and blood to his very lineage.
As a result, the resources they consumed were beyond imagination.
However, even though the resource consumption was enormous, Ye Wushuang enjoyed every bit of it.
He didn’t mind the resources being used up at all.
Those resources were meant to improve his own strength anyway. Using them now only made him stronger.
And because of that, Ye Wushuang had no intention of holding back when absorbing those resources.
And once he went all out, those resources were depleted very quickly.
Three months later, Ye Wushuang had absorbed every last bit of his resources.
Although only three months had passed, Ye Wushuang had consumed at least the equivalent of ten Sovereign Realm experts’ worth of resources.
With such a massive accumulation of resources, his strength had undergone earth-shattering changes.
Even though his cultivation realm was still at the Immortal King level, his physical strength had already touched upon the power of laws.
He could now almost be said to have mastered the Law of Force.
However, he had only just begun to grasp this Law of Force, so he hadn’t yet reached the legendary level where “pure force overcomes all techniques.”
But even so, Ye Wushuang was very satisfied.
Especially when he felt the surging power within his own body – he was even more confident about the next steps in improving his cultivation.
“Just give me a bit more resources, and I’ll definitely be able to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm! And then, that’ll be a whole new world!”
Once he reached the Immortal Emperor Realm and combined it with the ‘All’ Character Secret, he would be fully comparable to a Sovereign Realm expert.
Add to that the laws he had mastered, and he would even dare to fight desperately against an Invincible Supreme.
So, right now, Ye Wushuang was brimming with confidence and had no worries about the outside world.
Even if the powerful experts from Yama Heaven caught up to him, he was confident he could handle them.
On the other side, the Divine Dragon Empress had also made significant progress.
After long and arduous effort, she had finally mastered the ‘All’ Character Secret as well.
Although she couldn’t control it as freely as Ye Wushuang could,
given enough time, she would surely be able to master the ‘All’ Character Secret steadily and amplify her power tenfold at all times.
Thinking of this, both Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress broke into smiles.
“It looks like this seclusion has been pretty rewarding for you, my friend!”
“Yeah! I can feel it too – you’ve also made huge progress!”
“Mm! After this seclusion, we’ve taken another step forward toward becoming true powerhouses.”
“However, we can’t slack off now. We need to become even stronger! After all, right now, we aren’t even Sovereign Realm experts!”
Neither Ye Wushuang nor the Divine Dragon Empress had the combat ability to fight Sovereign Realm experts head-on.
They were also confident in dealing with Invincible Supremes.
But neither of them had actually reached the Sovereign Realm in terms of cultivation level.
So, their potential for improvement was still enormous.
Upon hearing this, the Divine Dragon Empress nodded in deep agreement.
In the past, she had never imagined she would become this strong.
Ever since swapping bodies with Ye Wushuang, everything had changed.
And because of that, the Divine Dragon Empress cherished this opportunity even more.
She paid close attention to anything that could make her stronger.
So, after Ye Wushuang said those words, she made a suggestion to him:
“Then how about we go get some more resources? To improve our strength?”
“Sure!”
At this moment, Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress planned to become Yin-Yang bandits, robbing the rich to help themselves.
