In the end, Dan Daozi still chose to take a gamble.

"Alright, I will help free of charge!"

Lu Qing'an smiled, put away the immobilized Blade God, and then turned to look at the people of the Blade Alliance, saying, "I will send him back in a few days. As for whether he can regain his senses, that will entirely depend on his own fortune."

The group of people from the Blade Alliance, who had hurried away just as the battle began earlier, now quickly approached and hurriedly bowed deeply to Lu Qing'an.

"Understood! We troubled you, Eternal Night Demon Emperor!"

After this incident, they realized that the Eternal Night Demon Emperor was even more terrifying than before.

Their Alliance Master's previous attack had been enough to terrify anyone. Yet, their Alliance Master, who had grown so powerful, had been subdued by Lu Qing'an so effortlessly!

Especially that one strike—it had clearly carried supreme power capable of destroying heaven and earth, yet Lu Qing'an, facing that attack, had merely extended two fingers to catch it with ease!

Just how powerful Lu Qing'an was, they could not begin to imagine!

He was so mighty it felt as if he could destroy the entire Azure Cloud Continent!

After exchanging a few simple words, Lu Qing'an prepared to take the others and depart.

He returned before his children and the others.

"Daddy! You were so, so handsome just now!" Lu Miaomiao giggled.

When she smiled, the tiny dimples on her cheeks looked as if they held little red blossoms.

Lu Qing'an scooped up his youngest daughter and said with a smile, "It was fine—just the most handsome under the heavens, that's all."

"Father! From now on, you are my number one idol!" Lu Zhengran also called out hastily at this moment.

Looking at his father, it was as if he were gazing upon a star.

Yet, at this moment, he could not help but recall how he used to look at other people's powerful fathers, and another pang of guilt arose in his heart.

Back then, he had thought about how envious he was that other people's fathers were so strong!

But now, seeing his father's invincible bearing, he really wanted to slap himself to death.

Even if all the fathers on the entire Azure Cloud Continent were added together, they still wouldn't be as formidable as his father!

Lu Zixuan gently nudged her younger brother and said smugly, "Spend more time in the Demon Domain to broaden your horizons."

She had long grown accustomed to how invincible their father was!

Her little brother still needed more training!

"Alright, let's go." Lu Qing'an shattered the void and led the group away.

A moment later, silence fell over the ruins.

Gradually, more and more people drew close to the center of the ruins.

When they carefully sensed the fresh battle traces left behind here and recalled the terrifying scenes of the battle just now, terror still gripped their hearts.

"Too strong! Utterly invincible!"

"I thought the Blade God after losing his mind was terrifying enough. I never expected that even at that strength, the Blade God would still be like a child before the Eternal Night Demon Emperor!"

"From now on, the Eternal Night Demon Emperor is my idol for the next eighteen lifetimes!"

The night grew deep.

Above the quiet courtyard, a massive rift in the void appeared.

With the appearance of Lu Qing'an and the others, the courtyard became lively once more.

Lu Qing'an placed the immobilized Blade God beside the Demon God Mother Tree and instructed, "Keep an eye on him. If there are signs of him breaking through my confinement, let me know."

The Demon God Mother Tree said respectfully, "Understood!"

Lu Qing'an looked at Dan Daozi and said, "You claimed that treatment would be completed within a day, so go get busy."

"What I said was that under the condition of having sufficient Alchemy materials, one day would be enough. The premise is that I must first gather all the demon herbs. It won't be difficult, though; I know where to find nine of the Advanced demon herbs. The only exception is the most important, specialized demon herb—the Primal Chaos Returning Heart Vine. For that herb, I might need the Snow Heavenly Consort's help to track it down."

Speaking up to this point, Dan Daozi looked toward the Snow Heavenly Consort.

The Snow Heavenly Consort said, "Our merchant guild does not have it either. I can try issuing a bounty..."

Just as she said this, the Snow Heavenly Consort suddenly paused and turned swiftly to look at Lu Qing'an.

"Wait, if I recall correctly, when we went deep into the Demon Nether Devouring Abyss last time, didn't that Fellow Daoist inside seem to be growing one?"

Lu Qing'an did not know much about demon herbs; he only recognized what some looked like. He did not know this Primal Chaos Returning Heart Vine, but he indeed remembered that in the demon herb field of that person practicing the Dao of staying low-key, there was indeed a vine-like demon herb planted.

"Is that vine-like demon herb the Primal Chaos Returning Heart Vine?" Lu Qing'an asked calmly.

The Snow Heavenly Consort nodded. "It seems so! I have only seen it in illustrated records."

With that, Lu Qing'an directly transmitted a memory to Dan Daozi, letting Dan Daozi verify whether that was indeed the Primal Chaos Returning Heart Vine.

Dan Daozi nodded decisively. "That is indeed the Primal Chaos Returning Heart Vine! To think that you have actually seen it! That makes things simple!"

Lu Qing'an nodded. "Then I will have to make another trip."

Of course, he was in no hurry to depart. At this moment, his hand flashed, bringing out the Blade Domain that he had already refined.

He walked toward the pond.

He might as well place it there.

He projected the refined Blade Domain above the pond, allowing it to hover over the water.

Lu Qing'an looked at Luo Danhong: "Fellow Daoist Luo, help arrange a Formation later to turn it into a special trial Formation. The power of this Blade Domain can be freely adjusted to different intensities, allowing people of different cultivations to enter and cultivation within it."

Looking at the Blade Domain that had already been refined by Lu Qing'an and whose intensity could be adjusted at will, Luo Danhong smiled and nodded. "Alright, that's simple enough."

"Father! Does this mean that my sisters and I can enter it to cultivation with the help of the Blade Domain from now on?!" Lu Zhengran asked in pleasant surprise.

Lu Qing'an gave a faint smile and nodded. "It was precisely so that you could cultivation that I took a bit of trouble to refine it. If you use the Blade Domain to diligently cultivation Blade Techniques, your Realm in the Dao of the blade will advance much faster."

Hearing this, Lu Zhengran's eyes nearly turned red.

So his father had retrieved and refined this Blade Domain with his future in mind!

Having said this, Lu Qing'an also looked toward Li Cangxuan and the others, especially Li Cangxuan: "This Blade Domain still retains its previous power, so you can also continue to cultivation with it. It should help you better finish refining the Divine Crystals inside your bodies."

Li Cangxuan's eyes were already gleaming with light.

If this Blade Domain maintained its previous might, he could fully utilize it to finish refining the Divine Crystal inside him and make another massive breakthrough!

He truly felt pressure now. If even the Blade God could suddenly become so formidable, would more people unexpectedly obtain Divine Crystals and grow stronger in the future?

Therefore, he had to make good use of this to finish refining the Divine Crystal inside his body and grow stronger!

Especially when he thought about starting a family with the woman he loved in the future.

As a man, and potentially as a father, his strength could not be too weak!

He had to become as powerful as his Master, possessing the capability to protect his entire family!

"Master, I will definitely cultivation diligently!"

"Good. Once you finish refining the Divine Crystals in your bodies, come find me again. The same goes for the rest of you—the Divine Crystals harvested this time are quite sizable," Lu Qing'an said, sweeping his gaze across the many people present.

These were Divine Crystals of different attributes. If Li Cangxuan and the others wished to continue improving, they had to first refine the fire-attribute Divine Crystals inside them before they could proceed to refine the newly acquired water-attribute Divine Crystals.

Li Cangxuan and the others smiled and nodded.

Only after finishing speaking did Lu Qing'an leave the courtyard to make another trip to the Demon Nether Devouring Abyss to see that person of the low-key Dao.

Meanwhile, Wu Ciren, who lived in secluded cultivation deep within the Demon Nether Devouring Abyss, had already received news sent by her scouts in the outside world through a Sound Transmission Jade Slip.

"How did this Eternal Night Demon Emperor become even stronger again... Fortunately, he already visited last time, so it should be a very long time before I see him again!"

She truly did not want to see such a monster ever again!
