Paragon Of Sin-Novel

RUMBLE!

The Everlore Association's area within Defiant Dawn began to experience a hectic and raucous seismic activity stemming from the spatial level. Those residing within were instantly taken aback as they grew horrified.

"WHAT'S HAPPENING?!"

"Are we being attacked?!" Panic set in as Evergod and Wei Wuyin's shared history, albeit it was merely an attempt on the latter's life, began to resurface within their minds. It was hard to suppress the fear that arose because of that concern!"I KNEW I SHOULDN'T HAVE COME!!!" An Alchemic Sovereign cried out, especially considering how deliberately targeted they felt in the World of Eden. Moreover, they were unable to enjoy any of the scrumptious benefits due to Evergod's previous orders. Whether it was the Astralis Dawn Mist, the two individuals who won a Neo-Dawn Soul-Sea Elixir, or the packaged resources and meals, Evergod prevented any participation.

Fortunately, their panic and fear settled as a burst of silvery light erupted from the area, instantly stabilizing it. The bodies of those in the Everlore Association exerted a faint glow that helped protect them with a gentle warmth.San Yongli was astonished as she inspected the protective glowing layer of light around her body. However, she knew this was due to her connection with the World of Eden, and she had already tested it, finding that separating from this connection wasn't difficult. She turned to her adoptive father curiously, "What was that?" Unlike the others, this Temporal Reincarnator was relatively calm despite the unexpected circumstances.

San Luoyang heaved a soft sigh of complex emotions, but he could not explain the situation to her due to forcefully sworn oaths of secrecy regarding the robbing of the Everlore Vault. If he wasn't an Alchemic Saint and handled a lot of matters as the Grand Secretariat, Evergod might not have informed him either. However, he was slightly guilty, knowing that Evergod had lost San Yongli's Heaven Relic.He deeply understood the explosive rage that Evergod was feeling right now. Before, there was no proof of Wei Wuyin's involvement, and not even Heavenly Seers could accurately determine the ones responsible, except that the responsible party was wreathed in a cloak of shadows, but with this paper, it was more than enough to guess who was behind it.

Who else could it possibly be?

Moreover, Evergod came to the Neo-Dawn Starfield with the hidden scheme of using the alchemic expo to not only uncover the one responsible but also reclaim the lost items with sufficient evidence. Unfortunately, given how open Wei Wuyin was about this, wasn't this an open challenge? As if saying:

"I know you're looking for me. Well, I'm right here."San Yongli couldn't understand her adoptive father's silence as she lacked critical information. If she knew the Everlore Association was indirectly funding the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Expo, she would certainly be driven to the point of speechlessness.

The inhabitants of the Defiant Dawn couldn't help but curiously look toward the Everlore Association's vessel. They weren't affected by the thunderous rumbling due to Baby Defiant's protections, so they observed only with curiosity. Eventually, the Everlore Association became less important, and they returned to cultivating and eating the provided resources.The unique format of the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Expo was quite astonishing, and many couldn't help but continuously throw out praise over how well-made andestablished it was. The Neo-Dawn Soul-Sea Elixir had already made the entire expo legendary, especially given how it was one of the few pinnacle-tier products to exist in the Grand Cyclic Stellar Region. To many, even if Wei Wuyin ended things right now, the trip would've been worth it several times over!

Within the World of Eden's subspace, Wei Wuyin was alone as Cao Cuifen had left to find her nephew, the Soul Saint King. However, he wasn't truly alone.

"Is everything ready?" Wei Wuyin asked.

The excited voice of Bai Xiu resounded throughout the subspace, "They're all at the final step just as you requested, Master.""And our wild card?"

"She's at the cusp of success as well."

Wei Wuyin nodded approvingly.

"But Master, what about you?"

"..." Wei Wuyin went silent for a moment, then softly replied with a determined tone: "I'll be doing the last segment of the Alchemic Expo myself."

"Yes!" Bai Xiu exclaimed happily.

Wei Wuyin faintly smiled, "Why are you so happy?"

"Why wouldn't I be happy? It's finally time for Master to stop riding the shadow of another's achievements. The real beginning of your very own legacy, no one else's!" Bai Xiu explained proudly, unable to hide the joy in her tone.

"..." Wei Wuyin might have remained silent, but he couldn't hide the raw emotion spewing from his silver eyes in gushes.

The next three weeks of the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Expo were relatively peaceful. Despite being only three weeks, with the Astralis Dawn Mist alongside these resources, quite a few cultivators began to experience breakthroughs in their cultivation bases, ascending to higher levels. There were even a few Starlords that attempted to ascend into the Mystic Ascendant Realm.

To prevent any deaths, Wei Wuyin had to pay a heavy cost to ensure that those who 'failed' stayed alive and forcefully pushed them into Mystic Star Phase. Similar to the Mystic Origin Liquid that could be refined to ensure that cultivators survived their Third Ascension into the Demi-Mortal Lord Phase, there were lesser equivalents or various methods that could be used.Thankfully, Baby Defiant's protection served as one of those safeguards. But the energy expenditure was not minor at all, costing quite a bit to ensure they retained their lives, and entered the Mystic Ascendant Realm as publicly recognized 'false' Ascended.

He had to put out a global warning to cultivators not to initiate their first Mystic Ascension until AFTER the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Expo. Doing so would have one immediately removed from the Neo-Dawn Starfield, banning them from the starfield and all future events. While the price wasn't comparable to resources expended to take care of quintillions in number, the issue was the harm this inflicted on Baby Defiant. The more Wei Wuyin interfered, the more unstable the natural harmony between the Mortal and Mystic Aura within Baby Defiant became."I'm doing it forcefully, that's why." Wei Wuyin concluded that his current method of forcefully maintaining their lives and pushing them into the Mystic Star Phase was the issue, not keeping them alive. Unfortunately for him, he didn't want deaths to bring down his Neo-Dawn Alchemic Expo or harm his reputation as a host.

"If not for your World-Bound Star Domain's unique powers and your Stellar-Paragon Physique, you'd have long since been annihilated by the Mystic Dao." The Heavenly War Spirit strongly stated. Wei Wuyin was one of the few individuals in existence who was given so much leeway with the Mortal and Mystic Dao.Just the fact his Astral Souls had interfered with the process of the Mortal Dao's cultivation advancement was enough to warrant his annihilation a thousand times over. Fortunately despite its inherent nature, the Mystic Dao, was equally as forgiving as the Mortal Dao. Albeit, the act of assisting those Starlords wasn't too offensive, as it was more or less granting them protection and lifeforce, and this simply meant he had to pay a price.

In all honesty, he felt as if he was being given special privileges."If I had to hazard a guess...I'd say the Mystic Dao wants you to ascend, or it isn't taking things too far because you're protected by the Mortal Dao?" The Heavenly War Spirit was also entering new territory of interaction, so she could only give this type of random guess. Wei Wuyin was by far the mortal cultivator with the most interaction with both Daos, both directly and indirectly.

"..." Regardless of how he thought of it, Wei Wuyin couldn't find a concrete answer. Since he was getting nowhere, he decided to set it aside for later.The three-week break ended; the people excitedly rushed back into the World of Eden. They were welcomed by a differently dressed Tian Xiaocheng, her silver-colored attire more modest and less flashy, yet equally impressive on her astonishing figure. She was a world-shaking beauty regardless of what she wore. If before she had been more sensual and sexy, now she was more graceful and charming.

Nevertheless, she was the focus of everyone's attention.

"I'd like to welcome everyone back to the World of Eden! I hope you all had great fortune during this break period." Tian Xiaocheng's words sparked all sorts of emotions in many eyes. "As for the remaining unused resources, you are free to keep them all.""Whew!" Her announcement eased the worries of countless souls who couldn't refine all the materials as quickly as possible. It also bloomed regret in many of their hearts as juniors or seniors had given their resources to more talented members of their groups to ensure the resources were used if Wei Wuyin intended to retrieve them. Now, they either lost their resources or would find it extremely awkward to ask for them back.

"Let's begin the second unveiling of the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Expo! Shall we?" Tian Xiaocheng's words kept changingeveryone's feelings on a dime, and they were all for it! As the current face of the expo, she had only given good news thus far, and hearing it all from a gorgeous face was a pleasure in and of itself.

The crowd wreathed with anticipation!Lin Ming stood next to Lin Xianxei while this all occurred, his grey eyes eyeing her suspiciously. They had cultivated during this break, and she seemed to have undergone a heaven-shaking change.

"She definitely consumed a greater than low-quality Neo-Dawn Soul-Sea Elixir," the voice in his head claimed. Lin Ming frowned slightly before smiling. It seemed that being Wei Wuyin's maid granted certain benefits. While this was what he thought, he had a strange feeling that Wei Wuyin wouldn't give Lin Xianxian a ninth-grade, pinnacle- tier product that was high or peak quality without a reason.

Could it be...Thinking of that woman that bore a remarkable similarity to Lin Xianxei, he felt an unbearable itch in his heart for reasons unknown. Suddenly, he asked Lin Xianxei: "Senior Sister Lin, where is your father?"

"..." Lin Xianxei was in an extremely happy mood, especially after refining this product that was just as advertised, if not even better! Moreover, as an elixir, it was still being refined passively, expanding her Primary Light Source little by little. However, Lin Ming's abrupt question caused her thoughts to shatter.

"What?" Her expression changed, from her eyes to her smile.

Lin Ming realized that he had asked something sensitive as he began to backtrack, "I was just wondering. You don't have to answer if it's an uncomfortable topic.""..." Lin Xianxei stared at Lin Ming for a long, tense moment. Then, she turned away and focused on the center stage. Currently,there was a newfound coldness in her eyes.

"..." Lin Ming realized he had asked a question that he shouldn't have. He also didn't notice that his question had caused the voice in his head to grow abnormally silent.

"I present to you the Neo-Dawn Vortex- Zone Pellet! A pellet that can harness time itself!"
