Li Jun spent so much time fighting Yin Gen, even giving the latter so much time to remove the influence of his Duyi Realm because he had a purpose–he wanted to study his use of Willpower Manifestation so he could reach the same realm.

'I've learned a lot, but it's not enough,' he concluded. Willpower Manifestation is not as simple as the name suggested. Li Jun has read about some other World Communities' cultivation systems that train Willpower to affect the world or even control the Law or Dao.

But this is not the same as the body refiner's Willpower Manifestation. These methods are, at best, a way to train to reach such a stage. The word "manifestation" represented a sublimation of their Willpower to a higher form.

This sublimation allowed body refiners to use their Willpower the same way as Dao Will–including using it to remove Emperor's Dao Imprint in the Grand Dao Source.

And from the information he learned from his sister-in-law, Li Jun knew body refiner's Willpower has more magical means than Dao Will, and it's not one of the reasons their path is considered the best between Qi Refiners (Dao Comprehension) and Soul Path.

'It does not matter. I can use this experience as the foundation for later.' Li Jun understood Yin Gen's success in his Willpower Manifestation was not because of his talent and Willpower. After all, he did not lack behind the latter in any of these categories.

The main reason for his success is his pure dedication to body refining and the battle between life and death. Unfortunately, he was not a pure body refiner and did not have a similar life-and-death experience.

"Time to end this battle," he declared.

"How arrogant," sneered Yin Gen. However, the two suddenly sensed something and looked in a direction. Li Jun's face changed as he saw what had happened. 

A shadow suddenly appeared and broke through their group's formation. Then, the shadowy figure headed directly toward Yan Liling.

The shadowy figure waved his hand to shoot a brilliant light cannon that ravaged the location Yan Liling stood. Everything in the light beam's path was instantly atomized, including the surrounding space-time.

The golden light that shone in the dark space in an area of millions of light years slowly disappeared, showing Yan Liling standing in the same path with a cauldron floating above her head. Besides her slightly elevated breathing, she appeared intact.

Then, she looked at the assassin with red eyes. If not for her [Defense Cauldron], she might have died in this attack since it reached the peak of 3-Leaf.

[Cauldron of Strength]

Another cauldron appeared next to her, full of designs of the demon race, Innate Demon, and Primordial Gods. Suddenly, a savage aura emanated from Yan Liling's body as she rushed toward the assassin.

In less than an instant, she was before him and punched him.

Boom!

The assassin's training allowed him to defend himself instinctively by crossing his arms. Sadly, the attack pulverized his skin, muscles, tendons, and bones–leaving two empty sockets for arms.

Yan Liling was an alchemist and had little time to dedicate her time to temper her body to the level of True Power Dao Realm. In her [Nine Cauldron Art], she created ways for alchemists to use fire to purify their skins, muscles, organs, bones, and blood, thus achieving a high level of body refining.

However, she was not satisfied, so she created the Cauldron of Strength, condensed through countless body refining pills, demon race blood, and Bloodline Purification Pills.

As long as she summons the cauldron, her fleshly body will be blessed and reach an unimaginable level.

Bang! Bang!

Yan Liling punched twice, instantly destroying the assassin's legs; she rendered him useless by leaving only his torso. Subsequently, she condensed the [Cauldron of Soul].

The purpose of this cauldron is to boost her soul. She used it to help her refine pills, using it to replenish her lost spiritual power while engraving Divine Runes. This cauldron is one of the main reasons she can succeed in creating Immortal Pills.

With this cauldron, Yan Liling wanted to search the assassin's soul for information. Although angered beyond words, she was rational enough to know what was necessary at the current moment.

Unfortunately, she failed. A seal suddenly activated, annihilating the assassin's soul and brain.

Yan Liling frowned, deep in thought.

"Was that you?" asked Li Jun, his eyes red. Adding to his crimson hair, he seemed the incarnation of death and slaughter.

"No, it wasn't," replied Yin Gen calmly before sneering. "But so what if it was? You should know nothing is off-limit in this battle."

"Good," said Li Jun with a hoarse voice, making Yin Gen tremble.

[Death of All Sentient Beings]

A small and simple red spear appeared before Li Jun. However, after seeing it, Yin Gen trembled. A terrifying power locked him, telling him he could not escape.

From this simple spear, he saw all the ways someone could kill any life forms that fall in the category of [sentient beings]: death by decapitation, death by weapons, death by poison, death by disease, death by mental breakdown, death by loneliness and sadness, death by war, etc.

'I…can't stop this spear,' Yin Gen thought, followed by, 'I will die.'

The fear of death began to overwhelm his mind, so he had to bite the tip of his tongue, using pain to regain control of his body and mind. Without hesitation, he used his last trump card–the Starbeast Zombie.

Yin Gen wanted to fuse the latter, thus drastically increasing his strength. Unfortunately, he discovered his opponent had already severed or killed the connection between him and the zombie.

'Damn it,' cursed Yin Gen as he mobilized all the defensive capabilities he could possibly muster–including an Emperor Artifact that looked like metal gloves. Pure Body Refiners can also create Proving Dao Artifacts but use their blood and Yang Energy to nourish the artifact instead of using their souls and Law.

As such, the Body Dao Cave has multiple Emperor Artifacts.

With the artifact, the spear barely slowed down.

"You're a talented individual, Yin Gen," said Li Jun, his voice terribly calm. "Unfortunately, your luck and destiny are subpar. You were born in the wrong era and lost to our sect's ancestors.

"And now, you also woke up in the wrong era and will lose to his descendants."

Li Jun waved his hand to manifest an Emperor Artifact that looked like a turtle shell, suppressing Yin Gen's artifact.

Then, the spear continued his journey, bringing him closer to death.

Yin Gen still remained calm as he analyzed the situation. He knew he could not use another Emperor Artifact in his current state–especially since the enemy could do the same.

He knew it would be best to bring out more power from the Glove Artifact he was using instead of bringing out more of them.

So, he continued pondering.

'My only chance is to use my Willpower to boost my defense.'

Yin Gen entered a deep focus state, trying to mobilize the new power he awakened. Unfortunately, his luck or foundation had run out. In such a short time, he could not successfully comprehend a decent defensive method using his Willpower.

So, the spear continued its journey of destruction, death, and annihilation.

When it was less than a meter away from him, Yin Gen found his lower body rapidly disintegrated into infinitely small particles. So, he watched his life pass him as the spear slowly approached.

Luckily for him, fate was on his side. After the spear reached less than 50 centimeters from him, its power fluctuated violently as if it had lost control.

'Opportunity,' thought Yin Gen as he moved his only remaining head to open a space portal and left the Eastern Quadrant. Meanwhile, Li Jun calmly watched him disappear before teleporting to see his wife.

"How are you?" he asked as he held her in his arms.

"I'm fine."

"Do you know what happens? Any idea who did it?"

"Tong Ruobing," declared Yan Liling.

"Her? What makes you say that?"

"The assassin used an Array Breaking Talisman, and it was Immortal Tier. Then, it also used an Immortal Tier Light Erasure Talisman–only she has such capability."

"You might be right," nodded Li Jun. "However, we should also consider the possibility that the traitors and Mo Xingyun are trying to frame her, plotting against us using her."

Yan Liling agreed with this analysis. However, her intuition told her this was Tong Ruobing's doing.

"What do you want to do with it?' She asked, looking at the Starbeast Zombie Tie Gang defeated and captured. "Do you want to use it as material to increase the Puppet Legion?:

Li Jun shook his head.

"High-Tier Power is more important than the Low-Tier Legions. This thing already has Immortal Tier strength. With a few changes, Cai Song can turn it into a powerful puppet."

"That's good."

Central Quadrant, in an isolated array:

Yin Gen's head appeared, and he breathed in relief.

"This Li Jun is not only strength, but his Battle IQ is even more insane," he muttered before beginning his healing journey. He saved a lot of his Yin Qi as a last resort. And now, he would use it to heal himself.

So, using the Yin Qi, numerous pills, and resources in his Space Ring, Yin Gen swiftly returned to his peak state.

"This defeat meant nothing," he muttered. "Plus, I still have a chance."

He looked in a direction, his eyes twinkling.
