Ling Yun breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the notification, and he immediately used his senses to check it out. "Hmm? Xiao Yin, why is my Mana Crystal similar to my Colorful Qi Core?"

[Master, it's because you have the nine elements in your body, so your Mana Crystal has become similar to your Qi Core.]

"I see." Ling Yun nodded in understanding. "Then how can I absorb Mana?"

[I can't explain it in detail to you, but you can simply do as you absorb Qi to absorb Mana, and all the Mana you absorb will be stored in your Mana Crystal. However, everyone's Mana Crystal capacity is different, and no one else can absorb it as much as you because yours is way bigger than theirs.]

"Oh." Ling Yun immediately closed his eyes and tried to sense the flow of Mana around him, but he became surprised after sensing it, for it was no different from Qi; it's just that the two of them needed a different container.

Ling Yun became excited and started absorbing Mana from the air, and his absorption rate was on par with when he was absorbing Qi. Even Zhao Yao, who still didn't have a Mana Crystal, could feel the changes around her husband, and she asked Xiao Yin. "What effect does it have if a cultivator absorbs Mana?"

[Mana is actually no different from Qi, but it can strengthen one's elements. Even though it won't affect your element rank, your element will be a notch higher than the original rank.]

"So you're saying that even if my element is Upper Rank, its strength will be on par with Peak Rank after I absorb Mana?" Zhao Yao asked as she turned to Xiao Yin in surprise.

[Yes.] Xiao Yin nodded to her. [That's why those blessed people have a higher affinity with elements compared to cultivators, and their elements are also stronger than yours.]

After hearing that, Zhao Yao looked at Ling Yun for a moment before turning to leave, as she said. "Xiao Yin! Let's speed up the construction of the power grid and teleportation device, and you can prepare materials for all of us to absorb Mana afterwards."

[Yes.] Xiao Yin immediately left after Zhao Yao, leaving Ling Yun, who was still very focused on absorbing Mana.

Meanwhile, three women had arrived at the Demon Realm, and Duan Wu asked. "Where are we going now, Mao?"

"Hmm?" Mao thought as she surveyed the area around them. She had become unaccustomed to the changes that had taken place in the Demon Realm because Mammon had kept her imprisoned for too long. "The place where Diablo is being held is very far from here, so I think we should go find Alexes first, and we could meet up with Zoe's parents there."

Zoe became overjoyed after hearing that, especially since she had been separated from her family for so long and really missed them.

"Show me the direction of Alexes' location." After Mao pointed in a certain direction, Duan Wu grabbed their shoulders and used her Dimension Travel directly.

Sometime later, they had arrived above a black sea, but they didn't see any demons in that place. "Are you sure they're here, Mao?"

"En, I remember exactly that Alexes lives in this black sea, but he doesn't live on the surface, but beneath it. Let me call him out!" After saying that, Mao took something and threw it into the black sea as she shouted loudly. "Old Snake! Get out right now!"

Suddenly, they saw that the black sea had split in two, and there was a cave at the bottom, and an old male Lamia walked out from inside the cave. "Who- Huh? Mao? Is that you?"

"Hehehe." Mao laughed at Alexes; they landed right in front of him, and she hugged him for a moment. "It's me, Old Snake!"

"So Mammon's death has something to do with you, huh?" Alexes said as he nodded in understanding.

"My son-in-law killed Mammon because he wanted to capture my daughter, and they released me afterwards." Mao then pushed Zoe forward and spoke to him again. "She is Aira's daughter, and we came here to see you because she wanted to meet her parents."

Alexes shook his head and explained it to them. "Aria and her family did live with me before, but you guys came too late since they've left now."

"Huh? Where did they go? Why didn't you stop them?" Mao asked with a frown, and Zoe looked at Alexes worriedly.

"I tried to stop them, but Aria insisted on leaving my place." Alexes answered as he let out a heavy sigh. "A while ago, Leviathan came here with those evil Lamias to look for them, so she decided to take her family and leave my place. Moreover, her husband is still in their custody, so she wants to save him."

"Leviathan, huh?" Mao muttered to herself. "No wonder Aria has decided to take her family to leave this place, or she will definitely destroy this place and kill you if she finds them in your cave."

"Sigh, you are right, Mao." Alexes answered with a sigh. "The current me is no match for Leviathan, and she can kill me easily."

"Grandpa Alexes, do you know where my mother is now?" Zoe asked him.

Alexes turned to her and shook his head. "I don't know exactly where Aria is now, but I think she must want to go to the Lamia castle, especially since your father is there."

"Lamia castle, huh?" Zoe muttered as she clenched her fists tightly.

Duan Wu directly patted her on the shoulder. "I'm right here with you, so you don't need to worry about them, and we'll definitely save them. Since your mother might be going to Lamia castle, we better head there right now."

"En." Zoe nodded at her.

Mao said to Alexes. "Old snake, you better gather your allies as soon as possible, because war will break out in this Demon Realm in the near future, and I believe this place will calm down once the war is over."

"War? Who will start a war in this place? No demon dares to fight Lucifer and the other Demon Lords, remember?" Alexes responded as he looked at Mao with a confused look.

"My son-in-law will lead the war." Mao replied with a chuckle. "I assure you that he is far more fearsome and powerful than Lucifer and the others, so you'd better quickly prepare yourself for the upcoming war."

Alexes was amazed at Mao's confidence. "Who is your son-in-law? Why do you believe so much that he can bring about changes in this Demon Realm?"

"You will know my son-in-law in the future." Mao then turned to Duan Wu, and she nodded in understanding. "Anyway, my son-in-law is a human cultivator."

After Mao said that, Duan Wu immediately brought them away from Alexes' place.

"Is Mao kidding me? How could a human cultivator want to start a war with Lucifer? However, she seems to have great faith in her son-in-law's abilities, and he also killed Mammon." Alexes muttered to himself after they disappeared. "Sigh, since this Demon Realm has been too chaotic, I think it won't hurt if I believe her words this time, and I will see the results of the war in the future."

After he said that, Alexes did not return to his cave, and he went elsewhere.

Meanwhile, Duan Wu, Mao, and Zoe had arrived at a place a bit far from Lamia castle.

"Why are they guarded so tightly?" Duan Wu asked with a raised eyebrow.

Mao shook her head at her. "Apparently, there's an important guest inside, so they're on guard like that."

"Could it be that Leviathan is in there?" Zoe asked them.

Hearing that, Duan Wu used her senses to peek inside the Lamia Castle, and she found a woman with long white hair sitting before the Lamia, kneeling down to her.

The woman looks quite beautiful, but her face is also scary. Her figure was not too tall and slightly curvaceous, but her appearance was very sexy in a long white dress that was quite revealing at the top, making her massive breasts clearly visible in those Lamias' eyes. Even though her skin looked pale, Duan Wu could see the smoothness of her skin, especially on her long legs.

Duan Wu then turned to Mao and Zoe and explained the woman's characteristics to them, and they were really surprised to hear of her presence in Lamia Castle.

Mao said to her. "That woman is Leviathan, one of the Demon Lords, and she is very strong when she fights underwater. Although her strength weakens slightly when she is on land, her strength is still much stronger than that of the three of us combined."

"So what are we going to do now?" Zoe asked h.

Mao sighed and told her. "I know you want to save your father as soon as possible, but we can't act rashly by sneaking in, or else Leviathan will notice our presence and attack us directly."

"It would be better if we wait for Aria to arrive here first, and we will think about our next plan afterwards." Duan Wu expressed her opinion.

"That's good." Mao agreed with Duan Wu.

Zoe could only helplessly nod and agree with them, especially since she doesn't have the power to break into Lamia Castle alone; she can't even deal with those evil Lamias, let alone if she has to face Leviathan as well.
