Nine Hells Monarch Auston could not decide whether he should act.

He knew that the soul secret arts his brother had comprehended were a great opportunity for Ling Yushi.

If Ling Yushi could assimilate this soul imprint, she would have a high chance of reaching rank ten bloodline and becoming a Great Lord of the Abyss like Ming Xiao.

Ling Yushi might even be able to use this opportunity to become a Devil Monarch one day.

There were only eight Devil Monarchs in the Abyss. He did not want to take away Ling Yushi’s opportunity.

But if Ling Yushi could not succeed, she might die instead.

Unless they could stop the influence from Tian Qi's fate power.

"She can either die or get an opportunity of becoming a Great Lord of the Abyss. This really is a hard choice..."

Qin Shan rubbed his chin and thought. He suddenly said, "Is there a way for Ling Yushi to maintain her present situation, stop merging with the soul imprint without taking it away?”

"If we temporarily seal her in this state and wait for the effects of fate power to disappear, would that work?"

"Complete seal?" Ming Xiao fell into thought.

Qin Shan and Qin Lie both looked toward the Ice Emperor.

The Ice Emperor was skilled in the ice attribute, element capable of freezing all creation. Could he do such a thorough seal?

"Only if I completely freeze the soul fluctuations as well." Ice Emperor frowned and started to consider the possibility of this matter. "I have confidence to freeze the girl's soul power to halt her soul consciousness but… there is a foreign soul there, she also has Nether Monarch Austin’s presence..."

"As for Austin’s soul imprint… I don’t have absolute confidence I would be able to freeze it."

The Ice Emperor was a nine-level Soul Altar expert but Austin had been a rank ten Great Lord of the Abyss and primarily cultivated soul secret arts.

Even if Austin was dead, the soul secret arts he had comprehended would be extraordinary.

The Ice Emperor had no confidence in himself after seeing powerful people like Tian Qi, Qin Hao, and Castor.

"Qin Lie, your main body comprehended Absolute Zero of the Profound Ice Family. If you do it through the bloodline, there might be hope," the Ice Emperor said. "Go through her bloodline. She trusts you completely, it might be possible."

"The Profound Ice Family's Absolute Zero!" Auston's eyes lit up and said, "They say that the experts that possess Absolute Zero can reach this effect—freezing the soul and the body!"

"My main body temporarily cannot come through." Qin Lie grimaced.

"Then..." Ice Emperor halted.

"I think I can ask Profound Ice Family's Han Che but... the abyss passageway is still closed." Qin Lie was worried.

"Soon. I can feel that the abyss passageway will reopen soon, even if you do not use Galaxy Mirror," Auston shouted.

"Why?" Qin Lie was surprised.

"Your father's destructive power destroyed the spatial crystal barrier around the entire Nine Hells and created a crack in space." Auston recalled Qin Hao's terrifying nature when he  said this. "I am the creator of this purgatory. I can feel that the abyss passageway is about to be unsealed!"

"This way, maybe I can invite Han Che to act!" Qin Lie said.

"I will go see the abyss passageway!" Auston said.

His high rank body turned into a ray of purple light that disappeared into the sky.

Everyone looked up from Nether City at the sky and waited for Auston’s message.

In the sky, many of Nine Hells' Great Lords of the Abyss, Dawson, and the others were waiting for Auston's orders.

Seeing him suddenly disappear, they were very shocked. They didn't know if something else was happening.

Azgalo, Aaron, and Dawson all slowly descended from the clouds.

The enormous Azgalo and Dawson turned into high rank Abyss Devils as Nether City could not accommodate their true bodies.

"Where did the monarch go?"

Azgalo asked with restraint after turning into a tall high rank Abyss Devil. His wary gaze remained on Qin Hao.

Aaron, who had been very dismissive of the human race before, appeared very careful when he landed.

The power that Qin Hao had displayed and Qin Lie's Light of Annihilation all broadened his vision.

After the battle, he thought of the human race as an unpredictable and mysterious foreign race.

He no longer dared to look down at these visitors.

"How is she?" Auston looked in concern at Ling Yushi.

"Tian Qi's fate power is affecting her, it's slightly troublesome," Qin Lie said neutrally.

"I hope she is fine," Aaron said sincerely.

"Lord Auston has gone to the abyss passageway to see when it’ll open," Ming Xiao explained to Azgalo.

"So that's how it is." Azgalo nodded. He did not ask any more questions and waited quickly for Auston to return.

He knew that Auston, as the Nine Hells Monarch, could quickly judge the state of the abyss passageway.

"Qin Lie, your main body... will really become a Devil Monarch?" Dawson chuckled.

Qin Lie thought and said, "It should be so if there are no accidents."

"Do you remember our agreement?" Dawson smiled.

Qin Lie stilled and then realized that Dawson had helped him several times in the hopes he would give Enos a child.

"I remember." He nodded awkwardly.

"Haha." Dawson's smile was pleased as he nodded. He said, "I know that you are one to keep his word. Otherwise, I would not have helped you despite the harm to the Frost Desolation Abyss and against my interests."

He was even more sure that gambling on Qin Lie was the wisest decision he had ever made in his life.

Before this, the other Lords of the Frost Desolation Abyss had been puzzled and even displeased by his favor toward Qin Lie and protecting Cadak's lands.

Russell and Belle both felt that Dawson was too fawning towards Qin Lie.

Just now, when Dawson came down from the sky, Russell and Belle praised Dawson for his foresight.

The Great Lords of other Abyss levels all congratulated him for tying himself to Qin Lie, reaping great rewards for the Frost Desolation Abyss.

At the same time.

Vermillion Bird Realm

Tong Yan, Tong Zhenzhen, and the other Vermillion Birds came to investigate Vermillion Bird Realm's changes after coming back from Boluo Realm and Ancient Beast Realm.

"Such dense flame presence!"

"The flame spirit power has increased more than tenfold than before!"

"This is a cultivation sacred land for beings of fire attribute!"

"Qin Lie did not lie to us!"

The Vermillion Birds cheered when they arrived.
