Chapter 443: Little Demoness: I Am the Little Jealous King of the Central Continent!
“As long as you need me, I will always be here.”
The demoness spoke with affectionate eyes, making Zhou Tong feel warmth in his heart.
“Yue’er…”
He softly called out, slowly stepping forward and gently embracing the beloved demoness.
“Uh… you bad guy, if you’re flirting here, the people outside will scold us.”
At this, Zhou Tong suddenly calmed down, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Clearly, his mental state had become stronger, yet his focus had inexplicably weakened; it was a difficult situation to explain.
“You’re right, the important matters come first!”
In a breath, Zhou Tong immediately became serious. He gently stepped on the ground beneath him and said to the demoness, “As you can see, this is my Heart’s Pure Land!”
Upon hearing this, the little demoness couldn’t help but widen her eyes.
“You really did it!”
According to theory, a Semi-Sage could indeed refine their Heart’s Pure Land, but the difficulty was akin to reaching the heavens, accompanied by extremely terrifying risks; a slight mistake could lead to complete ruin and death.
However, Zhou Tong had quietly achieved this remarkable feat during his slumber, his abilities surpassing mortal imagination.
“Since the Pure Land has already been refined, what do you want to do next?”
She subconsciously asked.
“I want to turn this place into a Little Thousand Pure Land!”
Upon hearing this, the demoness’ body gently trembled, thinking she heard wrong.
Now, she too had entered the ranks of Semi-Sages and had a vague understanding of Pure Lands.
Ancient texts recorded that Heart’s Pure Lands were divided into seven levels.
These were the Desolate Pure Land, Small Pure Land, Little Thousand Pure Land, Middle Thousand Pure Land, Great Thousand Pure Land, Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Pure Land, and Pure Land Above the Dao!
This evolutionary process astonishingly mirrored the external world’s evolution.
Before the heavens and the earth were opened, everything was encompassed in chaos, formless and without shape, which was the Desolate state.
Later, supreme gods opened the heavens and the earth, letting chaos spill forth, the space began to expand, and time began to flow, thus all things settled, yin and yang circulated, and the five elements took shape, forming a vibrant new world.
This world encompassed seven mountains and eight seas, merging the stars of the heavens, along with the five continents of east, south, west, north, and center, thus forming a small world.
A thousand small worlds merging made a Little Thousand World, a thousand Little Thousand Worlds merging made a Middle Thousand World, and a thousand Middle Thousand Worlds merging made a Great Thousand World.
As for the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Great World and the Pure Land Above the Dao, those were legendary existences; no one knew how to reach them.
To put it this way, if you were to compare the real world outside to the levels of the Heart’s Pure Land, it would only be at the level of the Small Pure Land.
Yet Zhou Tong wanted to directly transform the Heart’s Pure Land into a Little Thousand Pure Land; the difficulty of this was beyond words!
“Can this really be done?” The little demoness asked, somewhat uncertain.
“As long as you are by my side, I can achieve anything!”
Zhou Tong stated firmly, as if possessing endless confidence.
Hearing this, the maiden’s face suddenly turned red, unable to resist teasing, “Why didn’t you sweet-talk me like this before? Even if you were lying, I would willingly give my heart to you!”
“Ahem… Let’s not talk about the past; we should get to work.”
Zhou Tong quickly changed the subject, pointing upward and saying, “Our first step is to break the chaos and shatter the desolation!”
The little demoness nodded, flying up and circling around the desolate world.
Soon she noticed that in this Pure Land, she could not rise more than ten zhang from the ground; there was an invisible barrier restricting her freedom, just like a cage.
The large ball of earth beneath her feet was not real soil, but the source power from the Holy King’s remnant body, also the key to breaking the chaos.
“Next, I will unleash all my power to shatter the chaos, completing the act of opening the heavens and the earth, transforming it into a Small Pure Land.”
“And Yue’er, you need to help me expand the space, providing enough leeway to promote the evolution of the Pure Land, expanding it into a Little Thousand Pure Land!”
After hearing this, the demoness’ expression became much more serious, feeling immense pressure.
“Can this work? Even though this is a Heart’s Pure Land, it pales compared to the real world outside. But to open up space for a Little Thousand Pure Land would require at least Sage-level power, and my current strength…”
As she spoke, her head bowed quietly, somewhat blaming herself for her inadequacies.
“It’s simple; you just need to become a Sage!”
Zhou Tong said casually, causing the maiden to raise her head abruptly.
“Do you know what you are saying? I just became a Semi-Sage; how could I possibly leap over an entire major realm…”
“Under normal circumstances, there would be no opportunity, but I have this.”
Zhou Tong presented his tightly clenched fist in front of the maiden, like a treasure being offered.
The little demoness curiously reached out to poke it; her fingers instantly splayed open, and in her palm lay a glowing relic.
“This is…”
The little demoness was completely astonished, feeling an incredibly powerful imperial might. If Zhou Tong were not beside her suppressing it, she would have undoubtedly been hurt by this aura.
“This is the Quasi-Emperor Relic; once refined, you can instantly become a Sage!”
“This… this is too precious!”
The little demoness’ hands trembled; to her, this item could only show its maximum effect if refined by Zhou Tong.
“This was originally prepared for you; if you don’t accept it, I’ll be angry!”
Zhou Tong saw through her thoughts, putting on a stern face.
“Truly domineering…”
The little demoness felt reassured, cherishing the relic like a treasure, her eyes shining with light.
“Is this treasure just for me, or do some others have it too?”
She revealed a mischievous smile, suddenly asking, causing Zhou Tong to cough violently.
“I see, I see… I should have known; if it’s not someone else’s leftovers, it wouldn’t fall to me…”
Her voice was filled with teasing, watching the somewhat awkward expression on the one she loved, filled with immense happiness.
“Alright, I won’t tease you. I’m not that kind of jealous person; as long as you have me in your heart, that’s enough.”
She waved her hand generously.
“Really?”
Zhou Tong looked at her sidelong, filled with doubt about her words.
“Okay, I admit I’m a bit jealous…”
Zhou Tong remained silent and continued to stare!
“Fine, I’m very jealous; my heart’s vinegar jar has overturned, alright? From today on, I’ll be the Little Jealous King of the Central Continent, is that satisfactory to you?”
The little demoness said in anger and embarrassment, then sat cross-legged in the void, her hands cupping the Quasi-Emperor Relic within her palms.
“Hurry, help me refine it; time waits for no one!”
“I’m on it!”
Without saying another word, Zhou Tong released his Imperial-level Spiritual Power with full force, tightly enveloping the demoness.
At the same time, the Heavenly Cold Snow Pearl within him stirred; Zhou Tong could not command the mirror but could utilize the Snow Pearl given by the Snow Woman.
This was the pinnacle of Quasi-Emperor artifacts. Combined with his Imperial-level Spiritual Power, refining the Quasi-Emperor Relic became effortless.
Moments later, the relic melted in the little demoness’ palms, transforming into dazzling light, and fully integrating into her body.
“Boom!!”
Accompanied by a loud explosion, her momentum surged drastically, directly crashing through the barrier of a Sage, then attracting the heavenly tribulation!
