Ten thousand years ago, Ye Tian was just a high school student—until a fateful surgery hurled him into a world of cultivation, where he became the feared Heavenly Demon, a name cursed by immortals and dreaded by demons. After countless lifetimes of slaughter and a desperate struggle against the Heavens themselves, Ye Tian finally returns to his former world... only to find it is not what it once seemed. His arrival triggers a global awakening—unleashing mysterious powers, mutating animals, and driving humans mad. With society collapsing into chaos and zombie-like creatures roaming the streets, Ye Tian’s quiet reunion with his family is shattered. Faced with a new kind of apocalypse, he must once again awaken the Heavenly Demon within to protect those he loves and uncover the dark secrets that bind both worlds. Will Ye Tian reclaim the life he lost, or will he lose everything once more?
'Damn! He's going to explode!"
Looking at Chen Beixuan whose figure was expanding with every second, this was a scenario that Ye Tian had not expected
Under the ever-rising expansion, blood began leaking from his eyes, nose, and ears
His veins popped out all over his forehead, and his face turned red from the swelling
Seeing all of this, Ye Tian couldn't help but curse out loud.
"Damn it, do they even have these kind of things on the blue star?"
Murmuring to himself, Ye Tian although surprised by Chen Beixuan's sudden change
However, what even surprised him more was that such a thing happened on the blue star
"if nothing else, those Chen Family bastards should have put a prohibition on their family members stopping them from spreading any information about them to the outside world"
"This should also be why Gao Tianyuan was able to tell me what he knew about them without any after-effects since he wasn't a member of the Chen Family"
"It's just that, this way of doing this…."
"is it really a coincidence? or does this Tianxian continent have some unknown relationship with the blue star"
Talking to himself, Ye Tian increasingly felt like something was a miss.
Although Chen Beixuan's sudden explosion can easily be classified as an ability borne by one of those so-called awakeners
However, given his time in the otherworld, Ye Tian was more inclined to believe otherwise
"sudden swelling"
"bleeding from all pores"
"if anyone else from the Tianxian continent were here, they would think of it as a stigma pact"
Looking at the figure in front of him who was about to explode, Ye Tian in order to confirm his thoughts.
Directly raised his hand and placed it on Chen Beixuan's head
"Suppress for me!" he Yelled
Stigma pact, unlike the demonic pact or demon conversion technique, this method was first used by the righteous sects and big families
Although it is unknown who created it, but most big families and sects use it to brand their members
With benefits like being able to track the holder's location, and causing an explosion of Qi whenever anyone attempted to betray their family or sect
Almost everyone who was from a sect or family had a stigma pact placed on them.
*However, what most people don't know is that if you infuse a lot of your own Qi into a person with a sigma pact*
*you can forcefully temporarily stop the connection between the holder and the pact*
"the only issue being, that since most of these pacts are soul-based, the current me needs to be at least Soul Formation or Divine Transformation Stage to eliminate it completely*
*but for now, it is more than enough*
Murmuring under his breath, in the shocked gaze of everyone.
As Ye Tian continued to release more and more of his Qi into Chen Beixuan's body, its figure began to reduce
It wasn't until Ye Tian felt that his dantian was almost completely empty that Chen Beixuan's figure returned to normal.
"Alright then, now that the interruption is taken care of"
"where were we?"
Wearing an extremely sinister expression, Ye Tian had a wide smile on his face.

[Dragon City]
[Red Knife Gang Hidden Hideout]
Time soon passed and unlike last time. Ye Tan was able to successfully extract some information about the Chen Family without being interrupted
Although not part of the main house, but because he as the red knife gang leader was responsible for operating part of their illegal activities in the Dragon country
The information Chen Beixuan knew was definitely not something ordinary people would know
Things like, how the Chen Family is structured to an extent.
Letting him know about the existence of a clan head as well as various elders of different strengths
The fact that there was indeed an S-level ancestor, and the fact that the Chen Family had some ancient artifacts in their possession
Things that while not too surprising for Ye Tian, made him couldn't help but raise an eyebrow when he thought about them.
It was only after about ten minutes, and confirming that neither he nor Chen Fan had any more information he needed that Ye Tian promptly snapped their necks after temporarily breaking the pact
For the Chen Family, although he wasn't afraid. But much like the current blue star laws. He doesn't want to risk attracting unnecessary attention at this stage
*However, speaking of the law. It seems like those guys are almost here*
*I guess I don't have a choice then*
Looking upward at the ceiling with narrowed eyes, Ye Tian's lips curved slightly as if he had discovered something interesting.
Sensing this change, he knew that the next battle wasn't going to be an easy one.
So in order to better prepare for what was coming next, Ye Tian had to quickly restore his Qi as well as finish up with the rest of the red knife members
Thinking of this, Ye Tian called out to He Qiang beside him.
"He Qiang, go dump these two bodies in the corner of a room, as well get some weapons for everyone here"
"thankfully those idiots stocked up on a lot of food and weapons in this safe out"
"as for you lot, line up and get ready to receive your marks just like He Qiang"
"or don't you want to be stronger?"
Talking to them with a smile, everyone present knew that unlike what Ye Tian said, there were no questions to his words
Although confused about a large extent of what was going on, but if they didn't want to be the next Chen Brother with a broken neck
They knew that saying otherwise wasn't an option.
"yes leader!" they all said in unison
Looking at this, Ye Tian just nodded with satisfaction.
*Fortunately because of the difference in strength level of each realm, at my Qi training stage, although just the beginning*
*But it should be enough to push the seventy of them into the early stage of being a human cultivator, unlike He Qiang I made peak*
*with this, what happens next should be a lot easier*
