Chapter 910: Outer Heavenly Lord_1
The Azure Dragon smiled slightly and then pointed at Jiu Yin, asking, "Chu Qin, who is she? Why does she bear such a resemblance to the Taiyin True Dragon?"
"She is called Jiu Yin, the benevolent side of the Taiyin True Dragon. If it weren't for her reminder just now, it would have been very difficult for me to defeat the Taiyin True Dragon," Chu Qin said with a smile.
"Benevolent side?" Even the Azure Dragon was somewhat puzzled.
Chu Qin went on to explain everything about Jiu Yin and the Cosmic Energy Core in detail.
"Infinite Heavens?" the Azure Dragon inquired, her eyebrows arching.
"Yes, Lord Qinglong, we truly did not expect that there was a new world above ours," exclaimed the Shennong Primordial Emperor in amazement.
"I've known about this for a while," the Azure Dragon said with a smile.
"What?" Everyone was startled.
"Chu Qin told me," the Azure Dragon replied calmly. "You all still remember Pangu Shidi, don't you?"
"Hmm!" Everyone nodded, and the Life Progenitor Emperor continued, "Pangu Daoyou, in order to cover our retreat, was eventually swept up by the Taiyin True Dragon's cosmic storm and his whereabouts became unknown."
"His whereabouts are not unknown," the Azure Dragon said. "He has gone to another world."
"What?" Everyone's pupils shrank in unison.
The Azure Dragon briefly recounted the story of Pangu Shidi.
"Pangu Daoyou is still alive! Does that mean, Xuanyuan Daoyou, the Immortal Emperor, and the others have all gone to another world?" the Shennong Primordial Emperor asked excitedly.
The Wuji Heavenly Emperor also became extremely agitated.
"That, I cannot confirm," said the Azure Dragon. "However, perhaps they are not dead."
The Shennong Primordial Emperor and the others were deeply moved.
They might have a chance to see the close friends with whom they had fought side by side in the past—what a delightful thing in life!
"But one thing!" the Azure Dragon's beautiful eyes hardened as she spoke. "Regardless of whether we will go to another world, we can never return. For the sake of our descendants, for the Inner Universe, we must eradicate the Taiyin True Dragon!"
"Yes!" the Shennong Primordial Emperor and the Life Progenitor Emperor declared solemnly. Eradicating the Taiyin True Dragon and resolving the crisis of the Inner Universe was etched in their bones; it was an absolute mission to be completed!
Chu Qin had no such mission.
He was more concerned with whether the Azure Dragon would go to that world, and whether he could stay by her side forever!
"Azure Dragon, this is the Cosmic Energy Core that Jiu Yin mentioned," Chu Qin said, producing the Cosmic Energy Core.
"Why give it to me?" the Azure Dragon rolled her eyes before Chu Qin could finish speaking, "This was your victory, so naturally, it is yours. Moreover, given the current situation, enhancing the combat power of others has limited effects. Only your enhancement is crucial. If you can catch up to me and the Taiyin True Dragon because of this, we can join forces, and the Taiyin True Dragon will surely be defeated!"
"Yes, Lord Chu Qin, you must take the Cosmic Energy Core!" the Shennong Primordial Emperor also chimed in, "The rest of us, even with the Cosmic Energy Core, would need to retreat to seclusion for at least tens of thousands of years. What use would it be for us to have it?"
"Well then, I will accept it without humility," Chu Qin nodded. He needed to kill the Taiyin True Dragon within a month, and without some formidable means of enhancement, it would be impossible.
Moreover, the System mission was not yet completed.
"Ding! The host has completed the Goddess Mission, obtaining one hundred percent favorability from the Life Progenitor Emperor and the Outer Heaven Sacred Artifact: the Heavenly Inferno Demonic Staff!"
Sure enough, after Chu Qin agreed to accept the Cosmic Energy Core, the System's notification sound finally rang out.
And Chu Qin's gaze instinctively shifted to the Life Progenitor Emperor.
The Life Progenitor Emperor also looked back at Chu Qin. As their eyes met, a blush surfaced on her face and she averted her gaze.
"Why, why do I feel this way?" The Life Progenitor Emperor's heart pounded; she felt an intense desire and longing for Chu Qin.
Chu Qin felt the same.
For someone like Chu Qin, the Life Progenitor Emperor's beauty was absolutely irresistible.
```
Over the years, Chu Qin's strength had skyrocketed like a rocket, yet his personality remained unchanged.
Moreover, since the System had already assigned the Life Progenitor Emperor to him, he had no choice but to accept.
At that moment, Azure Dragon's words shattered the eye contact between Chu Qin and Life Progenitor Emperor, "We should not stay here for long; let's all head back to Tianmen. I have a premonition that there might be turmoil in Tianmen soon."
"Yes!"
"Wait, Azure Dragon," Chu Qin spoke up, "Now that the Outer Realms already know that the Tianyuan Microcosm is connected, we need to deal with it, or there might be trouble."
"How about destroying it?" Life Progenitor Emperor interjected.
"That's not an option!" Jiu Yin exclaimed, "The Tianyuan Microcosm is a cage set up by the Outer Heavenly Lord. If we shatter the Tianyuan Microcosm, the Outer Heavenly Lord will surely take action."
"The Outer Heavenly Lord?" Azure Dragon expressed his surprise.
Chu Qin then asked, "Jiu Yin, you always mention this Outer Heavenly Lord, who exactly is he?"
"The Outer Heavenly Lord is one of the strongest overlords in the Infinite Heavens," Jiu Yin replied, "His realm is immeasurable. The Taiyin True Dragon fears his intervention, which is why it dares not enter in its true form, nor does it allow those more than ten Ancestral Emperors to act. It's afraid of shattering the Tianyuan Microcosm."
Azure Dragon and Chu Qin, along with the others, nodded in agreement.
No wonder, despite the Outer Realms having such a significant advantage, they hadn't taken action.
"How can we repair the Tianyuan Microcosm?" Jiu Yin asked.
"It's simple," Jiu Yin looked at Chu Qin, "The Cosmic Energy Core in your hands can repair this spatial cavity."
"I see."
Chu Qin nodded his head.
Following that, the group burst out of the Tianyuan Microcosm. Under Jiu Yin's guidance, Chu Qin used the Cosmic Energy Core to easily close the spatial crack in the Tianyuan Microcosm.
"Jiu Yin, could you and Chu Qin come with me?" At that moment, Azure Dragon looked at both Jiu Yin and Chu Qin.
"Hmm!" Jiu Yin nodded.
"Alright," Chu Qin also responded.
"Sheng Yi, Wu Ji, you take Xiaowu and the others back to the Azure Dragon Pavilion first. I'll return shortly after going with Azure Dragon."
With those words, Chu Qin, accompanied by Jiu Yin, arrived at Azure Dragon's secret chamber.
"Azure Dragon, what do you want to ask?" Jiu Yin was the first to speak up, "Tai Yin was my creation. Whatever you want to know, I'll tell you everything."
"I have many questions, but the most crucial one is how to defeat the Taiyin True Dragon?" Azure Dragon inquired.
She and Chu Qin, though they had come up with a plan to deal with the Taiyin True Dragon, it still had flaws.
Jiu Yin, as another aspect of Tai Yin, certainly knew much more than Azure Dragon and Chu Qin.
"The Taiyin True Dragon was originally my evil side," Jiu Yin replied, "But having devoured so many beings of the universe and cultivated for so many years, I don't quite understand her anymore. However, one thing is certain, my vital point is under the chin, and she should be the same!"
"Under the chin!"
At those words, Chu Qin and Azure Dragon exchanged a knowing look and, without a word, both smiled.
Jiu Yin's revelation confirmed their own analysis.
It seemed without doubt that the vital point of Taiyin True Dragon was under the chin.
"Yes," Jiu Yin nodded, "But don't celebrate too soon. The Taiyin True Dragon knows about her vulnerability under the chin, so she will definitely find ways to conceal and defend it."
"Yes," Azure Dragon nodded, then looked at Chu Qin with a meaningful gaze and gently smiled, "Chu Qin, should we tell her...?"
"Tell her," before Azure Dragon could finish, Chu Qin smiled knowingly and said, "Now, Jiu Yin is our comrade in arms!"
