After the restoration of his talent, Lian Yun suddenly realized that it wasn't that he needed ten times the effort of an ordinary person to match the so-called geniuses; rather, most of the spiritual energy he cultivated was absorbed by his own talent.
This was what allowed him to elevate an entire level.
After clearing all the Demon Kings, Lian Yun quickly made his way to the outskirts of Evil Spirit City, where he sat down to meditate, wanting to sense whether his talent would absorb his own spiritual energy.
However, he discovered that no matter how much he cultivated, the amount of energy gathered in his Dantian remained the same, and there was no increase in the height of his talent. He wasn't sure if this was due to having used it once or if his earlier assumptions were incorrect.
Nevertheless, Lian Yun didn't dwell on it too much because he had already found a way to restore his talent.
After Xiao Jun had been reckless for three nights, Lian Yun joined the battle. He didn't fight using a striking method and spent two days defeating a Demigod Level Evil Spirit Ant.
After consuming the body of the Evil Spirit Ant, the Vigilant Worm presented Lian Yun with a fist-sized Spirit Core. This time, Lian Yun felt extremely full, to the point where even moving became somewhat inconvenient.
To address this, Lian Yun specifically meditated for half a day before heading to another Evil Spirit City.
There were nine Evil Spirit Cities in total in Huaxia. Lian Yun and Xiao Jun fought while testing themselves, and after a month, they had cleared seven high-level Evil Spirit Cities.
During this time, the Vigilant Worm's performance not only puzzled Lian Yun but also piqued Xiao Jun's interest significantly.
It devoured seven Demigod Level Evil Spirits that were over a hundred meters tall, yet its body showed no signs of growth or change in aura. It was as if there were an endless void within its body; no matter how much it consumed, it couldn't grow at all.
However, every time it devoured a Half Emperor Evil Spirit Ant's corpse, it displayed an even more joyful aura and returned feeling closer and more dependent on Lian Yun.
It truly embodied the nature of a glutton who believed that having milk meant having a mother.
The eighth Evil Spirit City was Northeast City, one of the most dangerous Evil Spirit Cities in Huaxia. Even some Desperados were reluctant to make a living there; it was clear that it was a place where humans struggled to survive.
This city served as an important defense against the Demon Realm. When Lian Yun and Xiao Jun arrived, they found that many people had gathered outside Northeast City, including some from the Alliance High Command.
"Cloud Emperor and this gentleman, we know you are incredibly powerful, but please spare this place," said a White-Haired Elder who bravely stepped forward. After speaking, everyone else bowed deeply to Lian Yun and Xiao Jun alongside him.
It was a request from the entire populace.
Lian Yun and Xiao Jun floated in mid-air, looking down with indifference. "Since you are so oblivious, are you willing to bear the consequences of your actions in the future?"
Lian Yun was clearing out the various Evil Spirit Cities, and the initial purpose was not just for the Spirit Core. While eliminating the strongest Evil Spirits in each city, Lian Yun also intended to search for that Locust Demon from back then.
In Lian Yun's view, even a single claw from that Locust Demon could command the strongest Evil Spirit of Fengdu. Therefore, it must possess the potential to reach imperial strength.
Thus, Lian Yun wanted to crush it in its cradle before it could grow.
After searching through the first seven cities without finding any trace of it, Lian Yun reasoned that it likely wouldn’t return to Fengdu. It was very possible that it was hiding within Northeast City.
Of course, if it had gone abroad, that would be a good thing. However, if Northeast City remained uncleaned and the Peerless Demon Master’s grand formation activated, the Evil Spirits would pour out of the city, and Kyoto would likely be the first to suffer an attack.
To be honest, Lian Yun's reasonable demeanor relieved these people somewhat, but his words instilled a sense of dread. It felt as if there were some crises known to Cloud Emperor that they were completely unaware of.
For a moment, none dared to respond to Lian Yun.
This was not a time for casual remarks; even if something happened later on, they wouldn’t have the courage to speak out in front of Cloud Emperor.
After a long silence, the elder at the forefront bowed and asked, "May I ask Cloud Emperor what other dangers exist beyond what we commonly know about Evil Spirits?"
"More than three years ago, that Locust Demon which appeared in Fengdu had only just reached Monarch level. However, it could restrain Half-Emperor Evil Spirits within Fengdu. Clearly, it must possess Emperor-level potential. After our confrontation back then, it vanished without a trace from Fengdu. Now that I have searched through seven Evil Spirit Cities without finding it, it is highly likely that it is hiding here."
The White-Haired Elder and others were already filled with shock.
During that incident years ago, some families suffered significant losses. That event was well-known among all. However, when they saw Lian Yun at the Alliance Tournament, many naturally assumed he had killed that Evil Spirit.
They never expected it had escaped instead of being slain.
"May I ask Cloud Emperor why you did not eliminate that Evil Spirit back then?" one person asked, still filled with indignation.
The fact that such a dangerous creature was not crushed in its cradle could only be described as malicious intent. Many lowered their heads but revealed their anger nonetheless.
"Go ahead and kill him if you can! The Cloud Emperor has just regained his strength, and it’s already impressive enough that we managed to repel him without the King's Realm. How can we possibly kill him? What do you expect us to use? You're just talking big without any real understanding!"
A young man, for reasons unknown, shouted in anger, his face flushed.
"If it weren't for the Cloud Emperor's assistance back then, both my brothers would have lost their lives. Dong Jing expresses gratitude to the Cloud Emperor for his past help and requests that he enter the city."
Dong Jing, around seventeen or eighteen years old, was a High-Level Monarch and considered a promising talent, one that many mid-level families would prioritize in their training. His family had invested all their resources into nurturing him.
Lian Yun nodded, having understood the situation clearly. He decided not to pay attention to these people's attitudes. Even if they were willing to bear the consequences, they simply couldn't afford to do so.
To put it bluntly, they didn't have the qualifications to bear the consequences. Continuing to obstruct would only bring shame upon themselves, even if the elder leading them was highly respected.
It was important to note that if that Locust were to become an emperor and lead the Evil Spirit army against the people of Huaxia, the consequences would be far worse than an attack from the Demon Realm Emperor.
When the Demon Realm Emperor attacked, even if people died, there was still a chance they could become Spirits and end up as slaves, with a possibility of rising again in the future. However, if the Evil Spirit army invaded, it meant that both body and soul would be completely devoured, leaving no chance for a comeback.
"Leave!" Lian Yun waved his hand and sat down in Ling Kong, resuming his cultivation.
