If someone had become a fifth level immortal using the simplified version of Yale's Path, the power obtained would have been just slightly superior to that of the Curse Lady, but that difference wouldn't be too great.

However, Yale was training the complete version which used the pure energy that he obtained when he became the owner of a lower universe.

Thus, his power was still increasing, which provoked that the Curse Lady started to feel fear.

Although she felt that the power emanating from Yale wouldn't be enough to exterminate the whole army in an instant, it would be impossible for them to flee until defeating Yale.

Moreover, since not even the Everlasting Curse worked, the Curse Lady already assumed that curses would be useless against Yale, and the army specialized in curses.

Yale was an opponent that nullified their greatest strength, which turned him into their nemesis.

The pure energy started to spread from Yale's body while merging with Yale's own energy.

Originally, by following the Origin Path, Yale had Origin Qi, and even after modifying his Path, its nature hadn't changed too much despite being far stronger than it should be.

World Gods didn't use the Origin Qi but World Qi. However, that didn't mean that they didn't have Origin Qi, it was just that it was completely useless for them. It was only after fusing it with the World Qi once they reached the peak of the World Gods that they would develop True Origin Qi, which was the final form of the Origin Qi.

However, Yale had never developed something like World Qi. Instead, his Origin Qi was already as strong as True Origin Qi while being a fourth level immortal, and after his breakthrough, he fused it with the pure energy, which provoked an explosive increase of strength.

"Impossible... This can't be... How? Why can he develop Universe Qi? Only universe creators should be able to develop it..."

The Curse Lady couldn't believe what was happening in front of her and immediately tried to send a message to the Supreme God, but all the connections had been cut off by Yale from the first moment; there wasn't any chance to escape or ask for reinforcements.

The fear from the Curse Lady and the army only increased because Yale's aura reached a threshold that should have been impossible to reach for a fifth level immortal, the power of a sixth level immortal.

Although having the power of superior levels was something that was easy to happen in lower levels, the Curse Lady had never heard of a fifth level immortal with a strength comparable to a sixth level immortal.

Of course, Yale just reached the weakest power available for a sixth level immortal, but that was enough to oppress those who were still at the fifth level immortal.

Yale was only able to control freely a ten percent of the pure energy and thus, only that percent fused with his own energy and became Universe Qi.

He felt that unless he became a true sixth level immortal, he wouldn't be able to use all the pure energy at will to fuse it with his own energy.

"That Origin Qi is weaker than that of the Supreme God. The universe of that guy should be a lower universe, but at the same time, something seems to be different than it should be..."

Yale was the owner of a universe limited to third level immortal, so the energy obtained from it was weaker than that of a universe which higher limit, but at the same time Yale wasn't the universe creator but the universe owner. He had obtained the ownership through faith, and that made that the pure energy he controlled was somewhat different from the one available to universe creators.

It was weaker from one side, but it was stronger from another. Overall that pure energy wasn't any worse than the one that the Supreme God used to form his Universe Qi.

Yale's problem was that he wasn't a sixth level immortal, so he wasn't able to form Universe Qi properly, which made it far weaker than that of the Supreme God.

The Curse Lady didn't know about the truth behind Yale's Universe Qi, but it didn't matter. Universe Qi was still Universe Qi, so even the weakest variant was enough to make her feel fear.

An ordinary sixth level immortal might be able to resist Yale's Universe Qi even if they didn't have Universe Qi, but for a fifth level immortal, that wasn't possible, or at least that was what the Curse Lady believed.

Yale's power was already stabilizing and remained comparable to the weakest kind of sixth level immortal, but he felt that after getting used, he would be able to increase his power a lot.

Of course, he wouldn't be able to become strong as a universe creator without making a breakthrough to sixth level immortal, but he didn't mind because both universes had just one person who was truly at the pinnacle of the sixth level immortals.

If he managed to increase his strength enough to kill some sixth level immortal, he would already feel that he had done a meritorious service to his universe.

"Sorry for the delay. The breakthrough lasted more than I thought."

Yale was smiling, but for the Curse Lady and the others, it seemed a devilish smile.

If they had been an army focused on direct battle, they would have attacked Yale as soon as he started his breakthrough, but they were focused on curses, so they couldn't unleash an attack powerful enough to kill Yale within a short span of time.

"Now, I bestow you all with the blessing to train the Ice Essence, an Advanced Essence that I created myself."

The Curse Lady and the others were quite shocked when they heard that and felt that Yale was crazy.

They trained the Supreme God's Path, and they needed to learn about the Supreme God, things like Laws and Essences didn't exist in their universe. The limits were the Supreme God and how much they could learn was also determined by the Supreme God.

However, at that moment, they started to feel something strange for them, the Ice Essence. Yale hadn't been joking with letting them learn it.

"Really a blessing... Not even the Supreme God can use ice like this, but why?"

The Curse Lady felt that she couldn't understand Yale at all.

"I am great that you all are liking it. Now, as it is usual when training Essence, you will need to face tribulation. Don't tell me that it is too early for that. I have let you study the Ice Essence for a whole minute, that is more than enough."

Wolves made from pure Ice Essence started to appear surrounding Yale. There was one wolf for each member of the army.

Yale's intention had been facing them with the Ice Tribulation from the start.

The opponents liked to kill with curses, so Yale chose to defeat them with a blessing.

From Yale's point of view, both things were the same. He understood it by studying fate.

A curse could turn into a blessing, and the same could happen in reverse. Yale had blessed his enemies, but they weren't ready for it, so it had turned into mortal danger for a lot of them.

Those tribulations appeared because the rules Yale had set for the people of that universe were that the tribulation would happen a minute after obtaining any insight on the Ice Essence.

Thus, those Tribulations should be surpassed with control of the Ice Essence; any other method would be far less effective. Their nature was slightly different from Yale just summoning them at will.

Moreover, a tribulation couldn't be cursed unless they were strong enough to curse the universe itself, and they couldn't do something like that, only the Supreme God could.

A battle started between the Curse Army and the Ice Tribulation Army. Although no one died int he first five minutes, the Curse Army understood that they couldn't win.

The worst part was that Yale didn't need to wait there while they battled; they would be unable to move, but Yale would be free to go anywhere else.

They knew that they had lost. Even if they didn't die, they had lost completely because they knew that it was impossible to defeat the Ice Tribulation Army in a short time.

They would fail to reach their destination in time, which would make that the Supreme God would kill them for disobeying orders.

Yale hadn't set a deadly trap for them, but their own universe creator turned it into a situation that doomed all of them to death.

Those rules were merged with the universe and would work automatically, so unless the Supreme God discovered it and decided to remove the order that he gave to them, they would die.

However, they all knew that even if by coincidence the Supreme God discovered it, he wouldn't save them. Orders were everything, no matter the reason, failure was the death penalty.

"It would be great if you were just busy until the war ended, but your own universe creator wants to kill you all. How sad! Well, I can offer you all a chance to save your souls and free yourselves from the rules of that selfish universe creator. Is any of you interested?"
