"What do you think will happen to him next?" Ling Xi asked Meng Xianzi as she looked at Ling Yun with a frown.
Meng Xianzi sighed and shook her head. "I myself have never witnessed a Chaos Dragon Bloodline possessor break through, so I don't know what will happen to Ling Yun after this. However, you should already be able to feel the evil aura emitting from his body, right?"
"Yes." Ling Xi nodded and replied to her. "After all, the Chaos Dragon is the eminent of darkness, and he is quite evil, so I am worried that his character will affect Ling Yun after their souls are completely fused."
"Anyway, I once found a temple of the Chaos Dragon, and some of the carvings in that place indicated that people in the past worshiped him as the Evil Dragon King." Ling Xi and the others turned to her in shock, and Meng Xianzi continued. "Besides, I also found a lot of human skulls in that place back then, so I think they used humans as sacrifices for him in the past."
"Is that true, Senior? Will Yun'er become as evil as the Chaos Dragon after this?" Yi Mingxia worriedly asked.
Unlike her previous attitude towards Tang Wu, Meng Xianzi was not offended by Yi Mingxia's question since she already knew that she was Ling Yun's biological mother. "Whether he will become as evil as the Chaos Dragon or not is up to himself, and all of you must help him not to succumb to his evil side."
"We will definitely not let Yun'er succumb to her evil side." The women answered her in unison, for they certainly don't want their husbands to turn evil.
"That's good." Meng Xianzi nodded in satisfaction at their expressions. "All right, you all can rest now, and the two of us will look after Ling Yun here."
"Thank you, Senior."
After they all disappeared, Long Yuyi asked her. "Master, will Brother Yun be alright?"
"You don't need to worry about him." Meng Xianzi replied as she nodded. "Even if he does turn evil, Luxuria and I will stop him immediately, so he won't hurt any of you."
"That's good; I don't want anything to happen to Brother Yun, let alone for him to become evil." Long Yuyi replied with a sigh of relief.
On the other hand, Long Zhan sighed softly after he saw his second sister's expression, but he didn't say anything to her.
"Aren't you going to do something to those three rats?" Meng Xianzi asked as she looked in a certain direction.
Ling Xi shook her head at her. "I already sensed that Ling Yun would change, so I deliberately allowed the three of them to become his targets, but I don't know what he will do to them later."
"I see."
.

Since almost all of them were focused on Ling Yun's situation, they didn't realize that the day had changed again. The people of Yunlong Zuzhai immediately gathered in the Eastern Garden after they felt a powerful Qi turbulence from there.
Meng Xianzi then said to them. "Ling Yun will break through now."
'He really is a monster! He only broke through to the Soul Realm, but the turbulence of Qi he generated exceeds that of the Saint Realm.' Nangong Ying'er and the other slaves muttered inwardly, and their eyes were fixed on Ling Yun.
Before long, the black dragon shrank and returned to Ling Yun's figure, and nine balls of qi surrounded his body. Snow white represents Ice Qi, clear blue represents Water Qi, bright red represents Fire Qi, green represents Wind Qi, yellow represents Earth Qi, golden represents Lightning Qi, pure white represents Light Qi, silver represents Space Qi, and black represents Dark Qi.
However, there was another ball that made some of them very shocked because it was pitch-black in color, and it came from Ling Yun's Devil Qi.
'He is really terrifying; he even has all kinds of elements. But what is that last ball? Why is the color like that?' Nangong Ying'er and the others wondered in their hearts.
Unlike when he broke through to the core realm, the Qi balls did not coalesce, but they turned into ten tiny figures, and they were ten tiny Ling Yun.
"Hahaha!" Meng Xianzi laughed after she saw that. "Hey, Luxuria! Ling Yun has truly become a monster! He is the only cultivator who has three Qi cores, and he is now also the only cultivator who has ten Qi souls!"
"Yes." Ling Xi nodded as she smiled in satisfaction.
Yi Mingxia then asked them. "What are the advantages for a cultivator to have so many Qi souls?"
They turned to Yi Mingxia and laughed, but Ling Xi immediately explained. "You can think of Qi soul as a cultivator's spare life. As long as our soul Qi is not destroyed, we have a chance to survive and reform our bodies, just like Tian Hu. However, in order to do so, we must first cultivate and strengthen our Qi soul, which is extremely difficult to do, especially for cultivators in this world. If our Qi soul is too weak, it is very easily destroyed, and we will truly die."
"So you're saying that Yun'er has ten lives in reserve right now?" Yi Mingzhu asked her.
"Yes!" The two women answered at the same time, and Meng Xianzhi told them. "Although Ling Yun has ten Qi souls, they are still very weak right now, and it is really a tough task for him to cultivate and strengthen all of them at once, especially since they have different elements."
Ling Xi also said to them, "Even a cultivator who has one soul Qi will find it difficult to do it, especially since to cultivate it requires a lot of items, and they don't exist in this world."
Ling Xi's words made the women wonder, especially since they haven't broken through to the Soul Realm, so they also haven't understood the difficulty of cultivating their souls.
Those senior cultivators are the same as them; even though their cultivation base is far above the Soul Realm, they have never truly cultivated their soul Qi, for they don't know how to do it. However, they chose to refrain from asking Ling Xi and Meng Xianzi, especially since their focus was still on Ling Yun.
Soon, the nine tiny figures entered Ling Yun's body one by one, but his devil soul did not enter directly into his body. Instead, he floated into the air, and his blood-red eyes peered in a certain direction.
Seeing that, Ling Xi and Meng Xianzi exchanged glances and nodded to each other, for they could tell what Ling Yun's devil soul was looking at, and he looked at the three people who were continuously stalking them.
After a while, the devil's soul entered Ling Yun's body, and several notifications immediately appeared in his mind.
[You have broken through to the Lower Soul Realm.]
(A/N: You can check his Qi souls in the auxiliary chapter later.)
Soon, Ling Yun opened his eyes, but his eyes were no longer black; they had become bloody-red.
"Yun'er-"
"Ssh!" Ling Xi and Meng Xianzhi immediately stopped Yi Mingxia, for they could sense Ling Yun's strangeness, and they immediately enveloped everyone in the residence with their aura, including the two Archangels who were watching from a distance.
Ling Yun immediately stood up from his seat and looked around the area around the residence, but he didn't say anything to Yi Mingxia and the others. He then called out in a deep voice. "Long Ma! Come to me now!"
In just the blink of an eye, Long Ma had appeared in front of Ling Yun, shocking those who didn't know about her. "Master."
Ling Yun stretched out his hand and pulled Long Ma closer to him using the Vacuum Palm, and he immediately kissed her, causing them to frown at that.
However, they did no more than that, and Long Ma directly passed her Qi to Ling Yun through their mouths, causing the fourth seal on his bloodline to finally open.
[You obtained the Chaos Dragon Soul Absorption Technique.]
[You obtained the Chaos Dragon Breath of Darkness Technique.]
After the two techniques appeared in his mind, Ling Yun separated their lips. "Thank you."
"No problem." Long Ma replied with a smile, but she immediately warned Ling Yun. "Master, the Chaos Dragon Soul Absorption Technique can help you absorb other people's souls to cultivate and strengthen yours, but that technique is too evil, and it will make you addicted. So I hope you don't use it too often, or you will succumb to its effects, and you will become an evil cultivator."
"I know, and you don't have to worry about that." Ling Yun replied as he spread his senses. After his fourth seal was unlocked, all of his senses were enhanced even more, and his range of senses expanded even further than before. "How long have they been in this place?"
"Since you started breaking through." Ling Xi replied as she floated beside him. "What are you going to do with them?"
"What do you think I'll do to them?" Ling Yun asked back with an evil smile, and he also changed to his half-dragon form, but his form was even more sinister than before. "Let's meet them, and you'll know what I'm going to do with them."
After he said that, Ling Yun instantly disappeared from their sight. Ling Xi, Long Ma, and Meng Xianzi followed him without hesitation.
