Ten years, a hundred years, perhaps even a thousand…Yu Zi Yu had no idea how long it would take.

 

Nonetheless, if he could find the Eternal Imperial Artifact—Tai Chi Diagram and the Daoist Sect’s greatest Grand Divine Ability—One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones, then all of it would be worthwhile.

 

Only by obtaining the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones could Yu Zi Yu truly divide himself into three, thereby achieving his peak might.

 

Then, by the principle of the Three giving rise to all things, he could open the door of countless mysteries, overcome Tribulations, achieve unity with the Dao, and steal grand fortune and capture immense opportunity!

 

This was essential for his advancement and to prove his Dao. It was the Eternal Dao, so he cannot afford even the slightest mistake.

 

A thousand years, ten thousand years—he would stop at nothing to obtain it.

 

In other words, he was absolutely determined to obtain the Eternal Imperial Artifact, Tai Chi Diagram.

 

After a moment, as if recalling something, Yu Zi Yu glanced at King Zerg, Zi Lian, and the others nearby…

 

“Now that the Demon Court is just starting out, it would not be wise to take everyone with me…” Murmuring to himself, Yu Zi Yu could not help but sigh in helplessness.

 

Initially, he had planned to place the entire Demon Court within the Nine Realms, taking them along to explore the Kadar Star Domain.

 

However, doing so would be too selfish on his part. The Demon Court had just been established and in a rapid growth phase. If it were delayed because of him, while Nine Tails, Golden Monkey, and the others would not blame him, Yu Zi Yu would still feel uneasy.

 

So, he came up with another plan, according to it…

 

The Demon Court would be divided into two divisions. The first, the public-facing division, led by Nine Tails and Golden Monkey, would remain stationed within the Milky Way, reigning over the stars. The second, a shadow division, would be taken in secret by himself. He would guide its members—Bull Demon, White Tiger, Golden Ant, and others of relatively lesser power—into the Nine Realms to join him in exploring the Kadar Star Domain.

 

This way, Yu Zi Yu could take the time to teach Bull Demon, White Tiger, and the others. As for the Demon Court, with seven or eight Tier-5 True Gods presiding over it, there should not be any major issues.

 

If worse came to worst, Yu Zi Yu considered leaving behind his Void Elf Form. In case of an emergency, Nine Tails and the others could use a secret technique to awaken his Void Elf Form.

 

Even though Yu Zi Yu would find it difficult to control the Void Elf Form across several galaxies, its combat power alone, even operating on instinct, would be formidable. At the very least, it would stand among the starry sky’s most elite.

 

“That’s the plan then…” Confirming his decision once more, Yu Zi Yu solidified his upcoming course of action.

 

However, just then…

 

“Master…” A voice called from afar, and Sarcosuchus, along with Shalira, Slytherin, and others, approached from deep in space. However, what caught Yu Zi Yu’s attention was the figure bound tightly by Slytherin’s heads, repeatedly coiling around it.

 

The figure was pitch black as ink, resembling a Qilin. Its sinister gaze held fury and resentment. The black scales, reminiscent of Dragon Scales, emitted a dim, deep glow, as if gathering power.

 

However, before it could gather too much…

 

*Crack…* Slytherin tightened its grip without warning.

 

This tremendous beast, which looked like a Qilin, had its scales shatter, with fresh blood seeping out.

 

At this moment, noticing Yu Zi Yu’s curious gaze, Sarcosuchus explained, “Master, we found this guy lurking around us in the nearby starry sky… Seeing he was alone, I teamed up with Shalira and Slytherin to capture him. But I must say, he’s strong; he almost managed to escape even with the three of us together…”

 

After listening calmly to the report, Yu Zi Yu could not help but chuckle.

 

[No wonder I sensed some disturbance in the starry sky earlier while negotiating with the Divine Titan Clan and others. So, it turned out that Sarcosuchus and the others were fighting with this Cosmic Monster…]

 

Just then, hearing Sarcosuchus’s words, the distant Cosmic Monster…

 

*Roooooooaar…* With an indignant bellow, the Metal Devourer expressed its outrage.

“You bastards are worse than the Titans… At least they honor single combat, while you all ganged up on me! A group attack… a group attack…” The Metal Devourer roared, his voice seething with fury.

 

[One-on-one, hardly anyone could put a dent in me. Even the iron fists of the Titans would struggle to seriously harm me. But…these guys have no honor. The moment they spotted me, they did not even think, they all attacked at once.]

 

The Metal Devourer had never faced such an onslaught.

 

Three Tier-5 True Gods coming at him simultaneously… Despite his strength, he was taking blow after blow.

 

[That damned woman, skilled in Psychic Power, especially—she kept reading my every move… Then that ugly eight-headed Serpent and that Crocodile hit me with deadly strikes, one after another!]

 

“Damn it! Damn it! You’re a hundred times, a thousand times worse than the Titans…”  With another furious round of curses, the Metal Devourer struggled all the harder against his attackers.

 

However…

 

At that moment, Yu Zi Yu, Dai Er, Sarcosuchus, and the others could not help but have the corners of their eyes twitch. Because the voice they heard sounded like that of a young child.

 

“A… child?” Puzzled, Yu Zi Yu looked toward the experienced Golden Monkey.

 

“Reporting to Lord Star God, by their Race’s age standards, this one is roughly equivalent to a 7-8 year-old Human child… indeed, still a child…” At this, Golden Monkey glanced at the faintly glowing scales of the Metal Devourer and added, “If I’m not mistaken, the reason this Metal Devourer has grown to Tier-5 is because it was born within a Divine Metal Mine… That’s how, at such a young age, it reached Tier-5…”

 

“A Divine Metal Mine…” Murmuring, Yu Zi Yu’s eyes narrowed slightly.

 

In that moment, countless descriptions filled his vision.
