Paragon of Sin

Chapter 1564 Chapter 1557: Violet Abyss; Prestige of a World-Saint (7)

"World-Saint...?!" Fairy Silence's bent back straightened slightly, surprise running rampant in her heart.

"A...human?" Grey Rose was taken aback by Wei Wuyin's race, but also by his visage that was, for a human, extraordinary to the point that her dark pupils reflected the image of his face as if branding it in her soul.

"..." Crimson Blade's expression darkened at the sight of this new arrival, his eyes already exerting an Ocular Spell to decipher Wei Wuyin's cultivation base, origins, age, and more. However, the most feedback he received was an endless void of indistinguishable qualities, resembling static within one's ears. The only thing he could verify was that Wei Wuyin's alchemical aura was extraordinary, pervaded by the highest quality and densest Utmost Purity Mist that he had ever experienced in his lifetime.

The trio of Abyssal Overlords had all come here at the urgent request of their Heavenly Seers and Oracles to get to the bottom of the sensation of danger they felt, which was extreme enough to get them into a frenzy of panic and concern, damn near hollering from their lungs of the end of times.

Their united front was unplanned, hence the awkwardness of their recent interactions. It was all coincidental, and they were all still trying to gather an understanding of things and sought to slowly interrogate Violet Sea and find the cause. Meanwhile, they were probing the origins of the danger to see if something abnormal occurred.

To think a human would appear! Moreover, he announced himself as an Alchemic Saint right off the rip! From the Alchemic Stars of Transcendent Purity in his eyes, his cultivation of Alchemic Dao was bound to be significant and incredible. However, where did he come from?

Violet Sea was raring to go initially, her Mystic Aura like a raging ocean storm, but when Wei Wuyin appeared by her side, her aura instinctively grew less turbulent, her gaze turned to him with a slight unwillingness and a rare form of gentleness emanated from within her pupils. The sight was caught by the three Abyssal Overlords and their minds began whirling into full sprinting activity.

Overlord Violet Sea was familiar with this human! It was a minor detail, but it caused them all to think of the recent sensation of grave danger and their hollering Seers. Fairy Silence eyed Crimson Blade and Grey Rose as if trying to gather their reactions. Crimson Blade was solemn. Grey Rose was absentminded and visibly shaken.

The depths of their experience and their preference elicited two very different reactions.

Her gaze was noticed and Crimson Blade returned her gaze with a glance of his own before turning his attention back to Wei Wuyin, this human that announced himself as an Alchemic Saint. There was no room to doubt his claims. They were all experienced individuals and immediately recognized the Alchemic Stars of Transcendent Purity within his eyes, especially the rich Utmost Purity Mist that stimulated them from so far away. They would be fools if they doubted his status as an Alchemic Saint.

The only question that remained was: What level of Alchemic Dao has this human reached?!

"You're the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint?" Fairy Silence asked as if trying to recall the name using her extensive knowledge, causing the three Abyssal Overlords to focus on her immediately. Even Violet Sea stilled her will for battle, her aura settling into a calm sea-like state.

"I am. Have you heard of me?" Wei Wuyin replied with a smile. It wasn't entirely impossible for his lineage to be known. For example, a Heavenly Seer could have tried divining his Neo-Dawn Eclipse Pill's Concoction Method or the other mortal-grade alchemical products of his lineage. Another example: an Alchemist could have, by pure chance and experimentation as the King of Everlore often did, concoct his pills and received the original creator's name from the Alchemic Dao.

Violet Sea's eyes brightened as her interest soared. She was acting as the hostess for Wei Wuyin, but out of respect, she never asked any invasive questions regarding his origins nor showed any sign of being remotely hostile for fear of offending the party. She was also not stupid enough to offend someone whose cultivation base and origins were unknown. Even after their 'Dao Discussion', she couldn't discern anything tangible, lest she believed he was a Mortal with Yang Essence greater than the vast majority of Ascended beings, and one that didn't taint her or outright die from recklessly daring to dual cultivate with her.

She even received a substantial boost to her cultivation base. Likely more gains than a decade of dedicated cultivation would supply, and while thinking up to this point, her mood soured as these invading scumbags had interrupted her midway.

That aside, was this old hag of a woman knowledgeable of who Wei Wuyin was?!

"It depends," Fairy Silence mused with a hum. "Has your Alchemic Dao reached the Earthly, Worldly, or Heavenly level?" It was as if she had information of three different types of 'Neo-Dawn' alchemists or those with remarkably similar names.

"..." Grey Rose and Crimson Blade's expressions both changed. The former broke out of her stupor at the mention of Worldly Saint and her eyes widened at the word: 'Heavenly'. The latter's solemn expression sank. He understood the implications of Fairy Silence's question. Was this human the source of the danger?

He had to be!

"Oh? I've reached the Worldly Saint Alchemist level after years of dedication. However, I've touched upon the edge of the Heavenly Saint Alchemist stage out of sheer coincidental fortune and the guided blessing of the Alchemic Dao." Wei Wuyin spoke in a rather humble tone, as if his words were modest and needn't be taken too seriously.

CLICK!

As if guided by the heavens themselves, the three Abyssal Overlords all came to the same conclusion as their hearts began to race wildly. Not only was Wei Wuyin the source of the danger, but the familiarity that Violet Sea had displayed and her signs of gentleness were likely all indications that she had gained his favor! Furthermore, she had definitely kept his arrival to the White Abyssal Galaxy hidden!

Crimson Blade gritted his teeth and exposed a pair of sharp canine teeth, his gaze toward Violet Sea was extremely hostile and indignant. However, he didn't dare to expose even the slightest hint of animosity or rage toward Wei Wuyin as if by instinct.

By the logic of the cultivation world, a very well-known fact regarding their conduct is that, depending on the level of the Alchemist, they had servants to guard against them wholeheartedly cultivated by them. Some societies call them Alchemic Knights, others refer to them as Dao Protectors, but to those Alchemists who did not take the route of an Alchemic Soul, their cultivation base could be largely deduced by their level of Alchemic Dao.

For Mortal Sovereign Alchemists, a cultivation base at the Mystic Star Phase, the First Stage of the Mystic Ascendant Realm, or the very pinnacle of the Astral Core Phase, the Star Core Phase, and no ordinary Starlord cultivation would do.

For Earthly Saint Alchemists, a cultivation base at the Earthly Saint Phase, the Fourth Stage of the Mystic Ascendant Realm.

For Worldly Saint Alchemists, a cultivation base at the Ascended Saint Phase, the Seventh Stage of the Mystic Ascendant Realm.

For Heavenly Saint Alchemists, a cultivation base beyond the Mystic Ascendant Realm, touching upon a legendary realm that these Overlords had only dreamed about, never once considering it the slightest possibility, and that was the Resonant Soul Realm!

If their cultivation bases weren't at those levels, it was hard to acquire the necessary Comprehension of the Alchemic Dao or emulate the sufficient Alchemical Energies or Power to concoct effectively on their lonesome. Additionally, those Alchemic Knights or Dao Protectors they had often had cultivation bases at or above those cultivation standards, only determined by the tier of the Alchemist in question, and whether they could proficiently concoct low-tier, mid-tier, or peak-tier products!

Grey Rose's heart pounded. An Alchemic Saint at the cusp of becoming a Heavenly Saint Alchemist?! That means it was safe to assume that this handsome-as-an-immortal human could concoct peak-tier Alchemical Products and had a cultivation base or protector at the True Sage or higher!

Fairy Silence was more experienced than all of them, so her grasp of this was immediate, and she felt her entire mind begin to swirl with thoughts. No wonder the usually arrogant and pompous Violet Sea was being so gentle!

However, Violet Sea's mind was both filled with admiration and thunderous booms of excitement. Unlike the others, Wei Wuyin initially announced himself as a Worldly Saint Alchemist humbly, not adding the verge of being a Heavenly Saint Alchemist, but after showing his interest in buying the Hollow Abyss with a Mystic-Heaven grade product and his recent promise whispered into her ear while inside her, she had the sneaky suspicion that Wei Wuyin was lying!

He wasn't just a Worldly Saint Alchemist!

HE WAS A HEAVENLY SAINT ALCHEMIST!!!

Fairy Silence soon reacted, "Oh! So it's World-Saint Neo-Dawn! I have only chanced upon your name once in my lifetime, but I'm saddened to say I don't know much. To think I'd have the blessing of meeting you here, and our White Abyssal Galaxy would have the fortune to welcome you." She didn't hesitate to lie, revealing an expression of great sadness and apology as she added: "It is unfortunate that I, Fairy Silence, wasn't able to give you a grand welcome and hold a fabulous feast in your honor to celebrate your descent to our humble galaxy."

"..." Crimson Blade's expression sank further into the depths of grim and gloom.

Grey Rose was a little weak, but she was by no means slow, and her thoughts toward Violet Sea became one of anger and vexation! She hid the presence of a foreign Worldly Saint Alchemist and gave him the best welcome to earn his favor! Leaving them out of the potential profits of gaining a relationship with a Worldly Saint Alchemist!

For once, she resonated with Crimson Blade's comments of Violet Sea being a pompous, selfish, conniving bitch who cared only about herself! Moreover, at his level, he likely was traveling the galaxy with an Ascendant Saint or True Sage due to the severe dangers of the Void-Blank Space between galaxies! Was she trying to devise their annexation or eradication?!

"Haha! Is that so? Well," Wei Wuyin gave Violet Sea a look, "I've been well taken care of for the last few weeks by Mystic Lord Violet Sea."

LAST FEW WEEKS?!

The trio of Abyssal Overlords glared at Violet Sea in unison, fully understanding the urgency of their Heavenly Seers! As for directing any of their hostility toward Wei Wuyin? None of them were stupid! If Wei Wuyin's cultivation base wasn't at the Ascendant Saint Phase already, their equal, then he had an Alchemic Knight or Dao Protector at or beyond that level! None of them had a death wish!!

Each subsequent stage of cultivation in the Mystic Ascendant Realm was like a chasm of endless depth, extremely difficult to overcome without great and unfathomable means. But an Ascended Saint or True Sage nurtured by a peak Worldly Saint Alchemist? They were sure to be extraordinary! Superbly powerful!

Violet Sea didn't care about their angry looks. "I haven't failed in showcasing the brilliance and pleasures of the Violet Abyss, so none of you have to be concerned." She commented with a faint smile. Wei Wuyin wasn't just shown the brilliance of the Violet Abyss, he explored the depths of the Violet Sea! Both seas!

Additionally, she didn't doubt that they would have all done the same! There was no doubt about it! NONE!

Crimson Blade snorted violently. But there was no pulsing wave of world-shaking, life-piercing power in this action of his. After learning that Wei Wuyin was in the Violet Abyss, he didn't dare launch another attack and offend him.

"World-Saint Neo-Dawn, if you've spent the last few weeks in the Violet Abyss, you haven't fully experienced the depths of what the White Abyssal Galaxy has to offer. I invite you to my Abyss of Blades and I'll be sure to allow you to experience the rich culture and traditions alongside the greatest of liquid nectar and delicacies of our galaxy." Crimson Blade extended an offer immediately, doing away with his grim face.

"World-Saint Neo-Dawn, my Soundless Abyss can..."

"World-Saint Neo Dawn," a sweet, alluring voice escaped Grey Rose's lips as she emphasized her ample chest a little, "my Abyss of Tranquility..."

The three of them all offered their Galactic Zones as places to experience their glorious qualities! Violet Sea's eyes narrowed slightly, especially at Grey Rose's offer!

"You all attack my Violet Abyss, rudely disrupting World-Saint Neo-Dawn's cultivation, without reason or justification, and then try to invite him to your brute-like territories? How amusing! Haha!" She turned to Wei Wuyin. After seeing how lowly they were all acting, she was reminded once again how valuable Wei Wuyin was! Her eyes glinted and she batted her eyes sweetly at Wei Wuyin. But shortly after, she looked at each of the three Abyssal Overlords with a fierce expression. "Before that, I hope World-Saint Neo-Dawn can allow me to get an explanation as to why they dared to disrupt your cultivation and attack you! Perhaps they knew of your presence and hoped you'd suffer an untimely death!"

Her accusation left the three speechless! Even if, just even if, they wanted to kill Wei Wuyin, putting aside whether they could kill someone whose cultivation base likely equals or exceeds theirs, and the protectors he's bound to have by his side while exploring different galaxies, their attacks weren't close to using a tenth of their true power!

"Lies!" Grey Rose screeched loudly, as if afraid that Wei Wuyin wouldn't hear.

"Mystic Lord Violet Sea, you kept all information about World-Saint Neo-Dawn from us. How were we supposed to know? If I had, I would have personally stopped these two devious witches from interrupting his cultivation even if it meant taking both of their heads!" Crimson Blade declared hastily.

Fairy Silence sneered in her heart, "I received news that you were up to something and came immediately for fear of being too late. It's as simple as that. World-Saint Neo-Dawn, you must understand that I would have never disrupted your cultivation if I had known. It was simply the treacherous nature of Mystic Lord Violet Sea, who is known for her devious schemes against those who give her fortune and blessings, that I dared not delay investigating upon hearing the news."

"Slander!" Violet Sea shouted, her Mystic Aura began to seethe, but she didn't dare to allow it to erupt for fear of causing Wei Wuyin the slightest sensation of discomfort.

"It's you who..." Violet Sea retaliated by exposing Fairy Silence about her reputation of betrayals and sinister schemes that led to countless deaths even in her own Galactic Zone.

Grey Rose smirked in amusement.

This caused Crimson Blade to say, "It's good that I'm here, World-Saint Neo-Dawn. I'll make sure this vixen who devours men viciously doesn't..."

Before long, the group began throwing each other under the bus and exposing the dirt built up over countless years.

Wei Wuyin watched all this unfold as he had the urge to take out some dried fruit and eat. In fact, he did just that! Chewing on some Mystic-Earth graded fruit out of a brown paper bag, he watched all this unfold like a spectator in the stands.
