Capítulo 1409: Chapter 148: Heavenly Punishment Secret Realm

“Go ahead, what’s there that we can’t discuss between us?”

“Come with me, there are things we must say to each other in person. Once said, I believe there will be no more barriers between us.”

Zhou Yan said seriously.

Yamina hesitated slightly, but without much delay, she took Zhou Yan to the forbidden territory of the true Elf Palace.

Soon, Zhou Yan and Yamina arrived at the forbidden area within the Elf Palace.

Here, if Zhou Yan wanted to do anything he desired, he could.

After all, all conflicts between them, due to Zhou Yan’s confident words, had nearly completely dissolved.

However, even though Zhou Yan was willing, he refrained from doing so for the time being.

Zhou Yan looked at Yamina, then used a unique fisheye technique to form the concealing technique of the Eight Array Map.

In reality, this technique wasn’t necessary, Zhou Yan knew that now, he was truly beyond being divined or spied on.

The Thunder Seal of the King was nearly completely in Zhou Yan’s control.

Thus, Zhou Yan’s actions were redundant.

But Zhou Yan remained cautious.

Caution is never wrong.

And this matter was indeed of great consequence.

Seeing Zhou Yan like this, Yamina showed slight confusion, finally beginning to calm as the extreme excitement gradually faded.

Because, Emperor Lei Yan, the Lord of Thunder Punishment, is very proud and would never set up such arrangements.

Because of his confidence, among the Eternal Ten Thousand Realms’ Emperor Stars, there’s no life that can pry into the privacy of the Lord of Thunder Punishment.

Precisely because of this, Yamina had seen the clues.

“Yes, what you see is the truth. I am still Zhou Yan, but with my own abilities, I’ve mastered the Thunder Seal and created the Land of Thunder Punishment—Thunder Flame Breaking Path Mountain. Moreover, within Thunder Flame Breaking Path Mountain, two servants are suppressed, one at the realm of Eternal Five Rules Sixth Layer, and one at Eternal Seven Rules Sixth Layer.”

Zhou Yan spoke calmly.

Then, a flash at his brow, Loh Jixu and One Autumn flew out entirely, then extremely respectfully knelt before Yamina, simultaneously releasing their Eternal Spirit, and then from their eyebrows, emitted a powerful aura of Origin Life towards Yamina.

At this moment, Yamina’s eyes widened, looking at Zhou Yan with an unimaginable gaze, as if seeing a more monstrous Emperor Lei Yan.

But that wasn’t the key. The key was, at that moment, Zhou Yan’s soul strength was increasing without limit.

Continuously rising to a billionfold level.

As Yamina sensed this, a horrified expression finally appeared on her face.

“Emperor Lei Yan, back then it was a ninety thousand times strength, but now you possess a billionfold soul strength, your future accomplishments…”

Yamina was already somewhat dumbfounded.

Yet Zhou Yan still didn’t speak, instead, at this moment, he used the Three Pure Ones Technique.

A soul body divided into three.

Three souls, each with a billionfold strength.

“Ah—”

“This is the deadly divine skill of the Ziwei King, a skill that nearly always creates two invincible avatars, almost truly unpressible and unresistable.”

Yamina was utterly shocked.

And Zhou Yan merely revealed some of his cards to Yamina.

Of course, Zhou Yan had an even greater card he hadn’t used.

“This is what I claimed for myself, a result of my own efforts. As for my greatest Primordial Soul, I’ve heard it’s the Origin of Heartlessness, so I haven’t collected it yet. If I did, what difference would there be between me and the unemotional Kings of the past?

When I truly reach the ultimate point, this card will be my greatest card. By then, I believe, once I refine this card, it will grant me abilities beyond measure.

Gu Xi carried this Original Spirit, capable of bearing the killing intent of the Lord of Ice and Snow, meaning nearly once I refine it, I will have abilities comparable to a King.

But now is not the time. Without reaching an absolute edge, I don’t even know how far I will go.

However, no matter how weak I am, I always believe as long as I keep advancing, I will eventually achieve my heart’s wish!”

“Now, Yamina, Ning’er, I need you to become my Ning’er, my eternal Ning’er, never slipping away from my side again.”

Zhou Yan spoke domineeringly.

Moreover, it was an expression of will.

Yamina looked at Zhou Yan with utterly enchanted eyes.

In those eyes, as if a fire was raging intensely.

But she still restrained herself, because some rules mustn’t be broken before they are broken.

Zhou Yan is the rule maker, he cannot break such rules directly.

Unless the inheritance of Heavenly Punishment City is taken, officially gaining the qualification for the King’s inheritance, can it be so.

This was originally the ruthless means, the ruthless rule, even if Zhou Yan himself is the Thunder Punishment Supreme, now once the rule is violated, it must also be suppressed by the rule.

The current Zhou Yan, despite extreme prowess in every aspect, still can’t withstand the rules during the zenith of the past Thunder Punishment Supreme.

Self-suppression isn’t impossible.

Even many ordinary people would end up shooting themselves in the foot, let alone a Supreme who could never foresee his own next life’s future, bound by such rules!

“Zhou Yan, my husband, where can Yamina go now? All along, Ning’er has wanted to stay by your side, but has never been able to fulfill that wish.”

“This time, the rules still cannot be touched. Only when you return from the Land of Heavenly Punishment, having attained the true qualification of Emperor Lei Yan’s inheritance, can we break the rules and be together.”

“Husband, Ning’er will wait for you.”

Jiang Yuning, or rather, Yamina, spoke with immense tenderness.

At this moment, Zhou Yan gazed at Yamina, wishing he could just hold her in his arms and ravish her fiercely, to express the long-withheld affection in his heart for Yamina.

“Mm, wait for me to come out, and from then on, bid farewell to the past completely. In the future, you will be Ning’er, Jiang Yuning, and not Yamina.”

Zhou Yan said confidently.

“Mm, Ning’er will forever be your Ning’er.”

Jiang Yuning spoke with profound affection and tenderness.

…

After a long time, Zhou Yan walked out from the Forbidden Land, with Yamina following behind him.

Outside the Forbidden Land, many Elf Elders and Elf Clan members had gathered in the Elf Domain.

Those who came were important figures from the Elf Ancient Land.

However, as Zhou Yan glanced over these important figures, he felt rather regretful.

Among the Seventh Layer of the Eternal Seven Rules, there were only three, and they were female elves tending towards withering.

These three female elves were the elders of the Elf race, their status comparable to Yamina’s.

These three female elves constituted the first faction, and behind them stood Feng Zishuang and Ping’er, neither of whom had high cultivation realms.

Zhou Yan looked at these people, and these elves looked back at Zhou Yan.

Among them, the Great Elder with the highest realm among the Seventh Layer of the Eternal Seven Rules looked at Zhou Yan and said, “Queen, is this the inheritor of the Master of Rules?”

“Yes, Great Elder.”

Yamina affirmed confidently.

“Mm, let us join forces to open the pearl and unlock the key within it.”

The Great Elder had not the slightest doubt and immediately spoke.

The two elders beside her immediately gathered around.

At this moment, Yamina took out a unique, round pearl, resembling a transparent crystal, or a pebble, extremely peculiar.

But this pearl emitted wisps of Thunder Seal aura, a sensation that made Zhou Yan feel very comfortable.

As he sensed this aura, the Thunder Seal mark at Zhou Yan’s brow stirred restlessly.

Zhou Yan immediately suppressed it.

He knew that the inheritor and sovereign are inherently different.

If merely an inheritor, all life would simply glance more, but once they knew it was the King himself growing, the attitude would naturally be completely different.

This is akin to the difference between a disciple and a master, two entirely distinct states.

Zhou Yan’s master, had to act like a novice disciple.

Under the power of the four great elders, the pebble-like pearl was quickly opened, revealing a unique luminous space.

The space wasn’t large, but it was wrapped with unique light sources that could be collected.

The light source surrounded an ancient array plate.

On the array plate, twelve Emperor Pattern marks appeared.

Each Emperor Pattern mark was a light, a light that could be enclosed.

The twelve light sources formed a unique, familiar great array.

The great array was very ancient.

So ancient, there was a sense of time being eroded.

Upon seeing these twelve light sources, Zhou Yan immediately thought of the Twelve Magnetic Light Columns.

Yes, these were the Twelve Magnetic Light Columns, of this, Zhou Yan was very certain!

Zhou Yan was not seeing the Magnetic Light Columns for the first time, and because it wasn’t the first time, the moment he recognized them, Zhou Yan was already quite sure.

“Some things about the Soul Burying Starfield are more of a setup, and Zhou Yan, you also know this, so it’s not surprising about the origin of these Magnetic Light Columns.

Thunder Origin, naturally, is of extreme benefit to you.”

Yamina explained and continued, “This is the Twelve Yuan Magnetic Light Array Plate; this array plate can enter the Land of Heavenly Punishment, the Heavenly Punishment Secret Realm.”

“As for what exactly the Heavenly Punishment Secret Realm is like, I don’t know, but it must be a familiar place to you. I speculate it might be the Spiritual Lotus Secret Realm, Black Water River, or Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City, but it’s more likely to be Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City.”

“Only when you enter will you know for sure.”

“Furthermore, Zhou Yan, trust me, this Soul-devouring Pearl is useful for you. You hold onto it first, and when you become the inheritor, you will be the sovereign of the Elf Domain. By then, when you want to reform the rules, whatever you do, there will be no hesitation. All of us living beings will respect your decision immensely.”

Yamina said, taking out the Soul-devouring Pearl in her hand.

This matter did not surprise the three elders beside Yamina, nor did it elicit any fervent gazes from the Eternal Elves present.
