<h4>Volume 1 Chapter 1091 A Temporary Compromise</h4>


    Kong Yun also secretly tugged at the Emperor Demon God''s sleeve, signaling him to stop being aggressive.


    The Emperor Devil God turned his head and coldly snorted, but still obeyed Kong Yun''s words.


    "That''s it. Let''s go together." Kong Yun said. He wanted to give up now. Kong Yun would never be able to do it. However, if he chose to continue deeper, Kong Yun would definitely not be reckless. He would allow all the martial artists to stand in a five-star formation. This way, they could observe any movement in any direction, and they would be able to help each other.


    With the addition of the martial practitioners from the other three great powers, everyone marched towards the white light. The light in front of them grew bigger and bigger, and everyone finally approached the white light.


    Suddenly, a small hill appeared in front of everyone. Unlike Kongtong Mountain outside, there were nine steps above this small hill.


    Kong Yun had encountered such a situation before. Although it was a long time ago, Kong Yun''s impression was extremely deep. One had to know that Kong Yun had suffered a lot from it.


    Looking up, the white dot of light everyone saw was a white jade pearl. At this moment, the jade pearl was at the top of the hill. Beiyun, who was proficient in ancient books, immediately confirmed that the jade pearl was the seed of the ninth level of the divine way!


    "I''ll give it a try." Qin Meng was impatient. His target was right in front of him. How could he be blocked by a small mountain?


    Even Kong Yundu, who was ten meters away from Qin Meng, heard a muffled snort from Qin Meng.


    Qin Meng himself didn''t notice that he almost fell down, but after all, Qin Meng''s strength wasn''t low. Adding on his resolute temperament, he was finally able to stabilize his body.


    With Qin Meng leading the way, everyone walked up the stone steps of the hill one after another. Some of the martial artists were immediately sent flying by a huge force just as they stepped onto the first step.


    In the next moment, a bloody mist exploded in the space. A martial artist had already used all of his strength after stepping onto the first floor, but he did not give up. As soon as he stepped onto the second floor, his entire body exploded.


    Seeing this scene, almost everyone didn''t dare to try again.


    At this moment, Yuan Bao, Thousand Leaves , Beiyun, and Qin Meng had already stepped onto the third floor. As Qin Meng was the first, he had already reached the fourth floor. However, at this moment, Qin Meng''s entire body was covered in beads of sweat. He heavily gasped for breath, as if he could no longer exert any strength.


    Qin Meng shook his head. He knew that this was his peak, so he jumped down.


    "What''s going on?" Kong Yun asked. Qin Meng''s strength was extraordinary. He could not even climb up to the fifth floor.


    "Try it and you''ll know that there''s a strong pressure on each floor. It''s as if the entire sky is pressing down on you. There''s no way you can use the Laws to govern. Moreover, every higher floor is dozens of times more powerful than the pressure on the upper floor."


    Hearing that, Kong Yun nodded his head. Indeed, wanting to obtain the seeds of the ninth level of the Divine Dao was not a simple matter.


    "I''ll give it a try." The Emperor Demon God grinned and said. Then, his figure moved. Qin Meng was about to warn the Emperor Demon God to be careful, but the Emperor Demon God''s speed was extremely fast. He actually reached the third floor in an instant!


    Qin Meng didn''t know what to say when he saw this scene. Were all the fellows with Kong Yun abnormal?


    Lie Feng was also unwilling to be outdone. His figure moved, almost in line with the progress of the Emperor Demon God. The two of them used more than ten breaths of time to surpass Yuan Bao and the other two. The three of them looked at the Emperor Demon God and Lie Feng who had surpassed them in the past and smiled bitterly as they jumped back one step at a time.


    The few of them were disciples of great powers, so their minds were naturally extremely mature, and they wouldn''t be lost by greed.


    When Emperor Demon God and Lie Feng Tower reached the fifth floor, their speed began to slow down. Kong Yun knew that the two of them had finally felt the pressure.


    Minutes and seconds passed. Half a day passed. The two of them were only standing on the seventh floor, not daring to make any further progress.


    Kong Yun''s eyes narrowed. He was finally about to leave. One, two, three … Until the sixth floor, Kong Yun did not feel the pressure Qin Meng had mentioned. It could be said that when the pressure was about to press down on him, it was cancelled out by a force in his body. Furthermore, Kong Yun was very sure that this power in his body was the Heaven Earth Origin Stone, the Heart of War, the Heart of Death, and the Heart of Space.


    "This … is this guy really a monster?" Yuan Bao could not help but curse. From now on, he could no longer think of bing Kong Yun''s enemy.


    When he reached the seventh floor, Kong Yun felt his chest tighten. It was as if the pressure from the seventh floor had umted to this moment. Fortunately, Kong Yun had managed to use the strength of his battle heart to barely stand.


    The Emperor Demon God and Lie Feng nced at Kong Yun and nodded heavily. Kong Yun and the two of them looked at each other and smiled, feeling the confidence they had given him.


    Facing the eighth floor that no one had set foot on, Kong Yun straightened his body and began to step forward.


    The moment his feet reached the gap between the seventh and eighth floors, Kong Yun''s skin instantly split apart. Intense pain tore through Kong Yun''s body, just like Qin Meng had said. It was as if a positive image of the sky was pressing down on him. This feeling was suffocating.


    Kong Yun gritted his teeth and his eyes widened. If he gave up like this, it would not be Kong Yun''s style.


    Continuing to take tentative steps forward, everyone looked at Kong Yun nervously. It could be said that the fate of the entire human race was tied to this person. If they could not obtain the seeds of the ninth level of the Divine Dao, it would undoubtedly be even more difficult to force the demons to retreatpletely.


    For an entire day, Kong Yun''s body was tossing and turning back and forth between shattering and repairing, and even the energy of the Laws of Life circting within his body was almost exhausted. However, Kong Yun''s first foot still did notnd steadily on the ground.


    "Bang!" Kong Yun''s skin shattered again. Kong Yun knew that something was wrong, so he hurriedly took out a jade bottle containing the Spring of Life from his spatial ring and poured it down in one breath.


    "Boom!" The Spring of Life provided new energy for Kong Yun, and Kong Yun''s first foot finally stepped firmly on the eighth floor!


    Suddenly, he exerted force and stepped out with his other heel.


    The moment Kong Yun climbed to the eighth floor, a green beam of light shed across the hill, as if he was celebrating something.


    The seed of the ninth level of the Divine Dao was right in front of him. Kong Yun took a deep breath and was about to continue stepping on it!


    But at this moment, the artifact spirit''s voice entered his mind.


    "Kong Yun, believe me, there''s no need to try again."


    "Why?" Kong Yun asked doubtfully.


    "Impossible. I seem to remember what kind of power this ninth level seed of the Divine Dao is. If you don''t have four Heaven Earth Origin Stones in your body to support you, it''s impossible." The Tool Spirit continued.


    Kong Yun nodded. Although the artifact spirit did not borate, Kong Yun could vaguely sense that there must be some extraordinary karma.


    "The demons haven''tunched an offensive yet. Don''t be anxious. Go back to your cultivation realm and try to absorb the Heart of Life as soon as possible. At that time, it won''t be toote to retrieve the seeds of the ninth level of the Divine Dao."


    Kong Yun nodded. The so-called''listening to people''s advice, having enough to eat, without absolute certainty '', Kong Yun would never act recklessly. Furthermore, what the Tool Spirit said was correct. The demons had already concealed themselves, and he still had time to improve beforeing back.


    Thinking of this, Kong Yun sighed. He nced at the seed in front of him with a trace of unwillingness, but he still jumped down.


    "Kong Yun" Qin Meng took a step forward and shouted, but he hesitated to say anything.


    Kong Yun shook his head. "I can''t do it for now. The voice that apanied the lightning tribtion at the peak of Kongtong Mountain was right."


    Qin Meng was stunned, his eyes revealing a trace of loneliness. In the next moment, Kong Yun patted Qin Meng on the shoulder.


    "I''lle back."


    In just five words, Kong Yun''s eyes revealed absolute confidence.


    This trip to Kongtong Mountain ended with Kong Yun''s temporarypromise. The people from the four major powers also left. Kong Yun, Emperor Demon God, and Lie Feng stood on the high tform at the peak of Kongtong Mountain without seeing the Lion Tiger Blood Spirit and the others.


    "They must have already returned to He He Yang City . It''s time for us to go back." Kong Yun said.


    After saying that, the heart of space lit up. An afterimage shed across the space and the figures of the three disappeared from where they were.


    In addition, it had been three months since Kong Yun and the others had left He He Yang City . He didn''t know how Elder Tie had arranged things at the Amethyst Mine, but he was worried in his heart. Kong Yun didn''t have the slightest bit of reluctance. He continued to speed up and speed up.


    In a day and a half, the three of them had already reached the sky above He He Yang City . Kong Yun only headed straight for the Pill Alliance Association. As a member of the Pill Alliance Association, Kong Yun had to return to his fate.


    When Kong Yun saw the Pill Alliance''s president, he briefly recounted the matter. When he heard that he did not have the seeds of the ninth level of the Divine Dao, the Pill Alliance''s president felt a trace of disappointment.


    "Guild Leader, where''s Xiang''er?" Kong Yun asked.


    The Guild Leader chuckled and raised his eyebrows.


    "She is in the Huayang Pce. Go find her. There is no need for you to me yourself for the matter with the ninth level of the Divine Dao Seed. Let it be there first. I''m sure no one else can take it away except you." The Pill Alliance''s president said with strands of beard.


    Kong Yun nodded, unable to suppress the yearning in his heart, he arrived at Huayang Pce .


    One day, if they didn''t see each other, they would naturally have to make out once they met. Afterwards, Xiang''er snuggled up in Kong Yun''s embrace with a satisfied expression on her face.


    Kong Yun cultivated every day, wanting to break through earlier and raise his cultivation realm a little bit, so as to prepare himself for absorbing the Heart of Life. However, Kong Yun discovered that there was another haze in his heart, and it was very difficult to calm down.


    "Let''s go to the Heaven-defying Race!" Kong Yun stood up and said.


    When Emperor Demon God and Lie Feng heard this, they were stunned for a moment. Why did Kong Yun suddenly think of going to the Heaven-defying n?


    "The demons will attack sooner orter. Without the help of the Heaven-defying race, the humans will definitely not be able to resist. We have to solve their internal conflict this time."


    The two of them nodded and told Xiang''er to stay in He He Yang City . Kong Yun and the other two immediately set off!
