The Residence of Nine Supremes was already filled to the brim, the purple Qi that had almost condensed into a tangible solid, soared like it was exploding. The pure violet actually turned deeper then.
The tumultuous state of heaven and earth, that had been going on for a long time, suddenly vanished!
…
When Yun Yang was at the edge of his endurance threshold, when he was in the most excruciating pain and at the most critical moment, he suddenly felt a shudder course through him. The invasion of spiritual Qi no longer pushed itself into him, while all the changes that were wreaking havoc within his body halted abruptly. He was relieved of his agony then; puffing a breath of ease, he collapsed and sprawled across the floor, losing consciousness.
This time, he passed out completely, but it was a relaxed and relieved unconsciousness.
‘Finally… it’s done… I won’t be awoken by the pain anymore…’ This was his last thought – his last wish!
This incident was entirely unexpected and unfamiliar to Yun Yang. He did not even know how long the entire process had taken.
He had no idea about the vast changes in the outside world nor the massive consequences it had caused. He was oblivious to the danger he had been in earlier – if it were not for the assistance in the form of the life-saving gem that sent had been sent to him from thousands of miles away, he would have died, torn apart by the magnificent forces.
Yun Yang did not even know that the gigantic funnel of a whirlwind that was being seen as a wonder was slowly dissipating. The purple gas in the sky was also slowly ebbing away, the purple-jade sky turning back to its original clear blue and cotton-white…
The thick fog of the Residence of Nine Supremes, however, was coalescing swiftly. Under extreme pressure, it gradually turned into intense purple Qi.
The doors to the rooms that had belonged to the Nine Supremes within the residence that were initially shut tight had somehow opened up and were speedily absorbing the thick purple Qi.
Stacks of purple cubes began to materialize on the floor of the nine rooms, each of them only the size of a brick. They were violet through and through, brimming with the purple gas inside; a single glance at one of them would indicate that they were extraordinary items indeed…
Eventually, even the yard and hall were filled with the purple cubes. The incredibly rich, refined spiritual Qi could easily suffocate someone who tried to inhale a breath of air.
Regardless, the tumult finally came to an end. It had been three whole days.
Later, when Yun Yang was made known of it, he had no troubling naming the three days and nights, calling them,
Eternal Past, Present, and Future, The Purple Qi From The East!

The name was fitting. By the eternal virtue of past, present, and future, the torture probably started the day he was born; even if he counted a lifetime as a hundred years, Yun Yang thought the days would still be unable to catch up with the torment he had been through this time around. As for the purple Qi from the east, the sky was purple, the Residence of Nine Supremes was purple – everything was purple as far as the eye could see!
…
The Residence of Nine Supremes was still surrounded by many curious onlookers. These people included His Majesty, the civil and military officials, and the martial artists who were still here due to the dragon hide treasure map.
Gu Chaliang and Dugu Chou had rushed back as well and had met up with Ling Xiaozui who reached earlier. They stood at a higher altitude, observing the Nine Supremes Residence for any further signs of changes.
While Yun Yang had experienced countless cycles of reincarnation-like advances throughout these three days, like he had gone through three entire lifetimes, the secondary beneficiaries were these three men instead.
Firstly, it was Ling Xiaozui who had given his all and even ignited a substantial amount of potential life force to speed back to Tiantang City’s Residence of Nine Supremes, just so he could deliver the purple jade flute. This allowed the chaos to draw to a halt, causing him to receive the largest reward.
It was as if the purple Qi at the Residence of Nine Supremes knew that Ling Xiaozui was the key stakeholder in this episode as it sent a portion of the Qi to him. Ling Xiaozui’s cultivation base, knowledge, and experience were proficient enough to discern that this was an incredible opportunity. He absorbed it with full concentration, beginning his cultivation in the spiritual Qi environment that was a hundred times richer than most other places.
Dugu Chou and Gu Chaliang who had just caught up, began to cultivate, closing their eyes as well, healing themselves and increasing their cultivation base.
After all, such an opportunity was an incredible chance and might not be available again in another thousand years. There would be time afterward to talk about what was on their minds.
After the futile tracking, secret attack as well as the subsequent ambushes, these three men were frustrated and angered. They had come to the startlingly depressing understanding that their cultivation base was not actually at the pinnacle of this world, nor were they truly unrivaled!
With the three days of devoted cultivation, the trio felt their cultivation base escalating a great deal more than ever before. Ling Xiaozui, among the three, was the one who gained the most improvement. His already magnificent capabilities were stretched further, coming closer to his reputation as the Unrivaled Expert.
When they felt the spiritual Qi’s intensity slowly fading and there was not much meaning to continue cultivating, the trio opened their eyes in unison.
Glancing again at the magnanimous Residence of Nine Supremes, the three men felt a strange and subtle longing. If the continent were said to be a crown, the Residence of Nine Supremes would be the most luminous pearl mounted upon it!
There was no doubt that it could never be replaced.
Far away, the wind whistled and herded the clouds along. An overwhelming sense of killing intent came from afar, exuding a brazen air.
The three men looked up and into the distance simultaneously.
The vibe that was being exuded was truly familiar. At least, they were truly familiar with it during this period of time, familiar because they had come into contact with it before.
Their old opponent was here; the group of experts from the Four Seasons Tower had arrived.
Despite their two previous defeats, the trio was fearless.
The terrifying sense stopped in the distance and did not come closer. There was a total of eighteen people from the Four Seasons Tower this time, appearing high in the clouds some distance away and hiding amidst the fog. They could sense their piercing gazes, hesitant, as if they were discussing, and did not launch any attack immediately.
The Residence of Nine Supremes beneath them was still exuding thick purple Qi, still gleaming radiantly and shining upon the world.
After the momentary pause, a shadow from the eighteen people broke apart from the group like a rainbow to be marveled at, stopping above the Residence of Nine Supremes. He smiled faintly.
Gentlemen, please.

Ling Xiaozui nodded gently and replied,
Liang Canghai, you actually are still alive.

The person was the black-masked man they had met the other day, Skied Glints of Gold Liang Canghai; this person was Mr. Nian’s most famous representative when making public appearances. In the previous ambush, Liang Canghai had borne an injury which was almost fatal. To appear here intact was truly astonishing.
Liang Canghai stood with his arms resting behind his back, smiling faintly.
What challenge is there in death, if death was only the beginning? If I had died, wouldn’t that be an affront to Brother Ling’s grand gift?
