"You're still the same as when I first saw you. You shocked me." Han Li smiled.

"When I first saw you, I didn't remember you being in awe of celestial beings. That time with the Inky Flood Dragon, you …" Nangong Wan realized something was wrong and quickly stopped.

This time, even her cheeks were flushed.

Han Li took her into his arms, and a hint of reminiscence appeared in his eyes. He said slowly,

"Speaking of which, I still have to thank that Inky Flood Dragon. If I didn't mistake its lecherous pouch for a flood dragon's core, you and I …"

"Don't say it …" Even though they were already Dao companions, Nangong Wan still felt shy. She raised a finger to stop Han Li's lips to stop him from continuing.

The sunlight in the forest shone on the two of them, and it was slightly warm. From time to time, birds chirped and chirped in the depths of the forest. Wherever the mountain wind passed, it was like a gentle hand.

Han Li didn't continue to speak. He just hugged her gently and enjoyed this rare tranquility.

…

Time flew by, and half a month passed.

The Extraordinary Mortal World under the jurisdiction of the South Forest Immortal Domain was the smallest and had the weakest heaven and earth spiritual energy among the many mortal domains.

In this world, 100% of the people who lived were ordinary people. Even if there were those who were born with spiritual roots and had the aptitude to cultivate, they were very rare.

And it was precisely because of the lack of heaven and earth spiritual energy that immortal herbs and spirit herbs were naturally scarce. The cultivation resources were even more pitiful. Often, Core Formation Stage cultivators were already rare cultivation geniuses that were rarely seen in ten thousand years. As for Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, they were equivalent to the existence of the heavens. They were the absolute powerhouses that stood at the top of this world.

Therefore, this world was still dominated by the secular world. It was more about martial arts and politics.

As for those powerful cultivators, they were like gods most of the time. They would only appear in legends passed down by word of mouth and in all kinds of novels.

Therefore, in this world, it was rare to see those cultivators fighting. After all, it was already very difficult to embark on the Immortal Path. They couldn't even break through the limit of their lifespan, let alone bet their lives on a feud.

‘

But on this day, the number one cultivation sect in Beiyuan Country, Hidden Mountain Sect, was attacked by the sworn enemy of Nanjiang Country.

The mortal enemy of Nanjiang Country was just a middle stage Core Formation cultivator, and his strength was far inferior to the current Sect Master of Hidden Mountain Sect. The latter was already a late stage Core Formation cultivator decades ago.

Logically speaking, he didn't have the guts to kill his way in.

However, the reality was that not only did this person directly kill his way into the Hidden Mountains Sect, he even used his bone flute insect controlling technique to control a large number of poisonous creatures and completely killed the less than a hundred people in the sect.

If it were just some ordinary poisonous creatures, then it wouldn't be a problem. However, there were many extremely rare spirit insects hidden among these poisonous creatures, including 28 Gold Devouring Beetles that had yet to fully mature.

After a round of killing, the entire Hidden Mountain Sect was left with only the sect master and a few heavily injured elders. They were forced to the front of the ancestral hall on the sect's ancestral peak by that person's spirit insects and poisonous creatures.

Among them, the Hidden Mountain Sect Master was a short, white-haired man who looked like a child. His right shoulder was badly mutilated, and even his arm and sleeve were eaten clean by the 28 Gold Devouring Beetles.

"It was just an oversight that caused you to fail to break through the realm. Why do you have to be so ruthless?" The sect master's face was pale, and he looked angrily at the disheveled man who controlled the insects with the bone flute.

The latter stopped playing the flute, and the poisonous spirit insects temporarily stopped and did not continue to chase.

"The spirit energy in this world is limited, and it is not enough to support the appearance of too many Nascent Soul stage cultivators. After you stopped me once, I'm afraid … I'm afraid that it will be difficult for me to break through the realm again. Do you think this revenge should be taken?" The disheveled man said coldly.

"Even so, you've already completely destroyed my sect. It's time for you to stop …" The Sect Leader advised.

"Just one more step. As long as you die, your Hidden Mountain Sect will be truly destroyed." The disheveled man was unmoved and continued.

Finishing, he blew the bone flute in his hand again, and the large group of ghosts that had surrounded the peak moved again, heading towards the Hidden Mountain Sect Master and the others.

At this moment, there seemed to be a faint tremor between the heavens and the earth. Everyone sensed it in that instant, but no one paid it any attention, because it was just a momentary movement, and everything returned to normal.

Immediately after, there was a sudden disturbance in the swarm of insects controlled by the disheveled man. The originally orderly group suddenly became a mess. The ordinary poisonous creatures were fine, but the spirit insects among them all broke free of control.

Seeing this, the disheveled man was shocked and hurriedly used all his spirit energy to try and control the spirit insects.

He did not expect that when he used all his strength, the spirit insects that were originally trying to fly away suddenly turned around. Under the lead of the 28 Gold Devouring Beetles, they flew directly towards him.

After a miserable cry, the disheveled man's flesh and blood were all gone, leaving only a bloody skeleton standing where he was.

Seeing this terrifying scene, the people of the Hidden Mountain Sect were shocked. However, they discovered that after the spirit insects killed him, they flew high into the sky and did not have any intention of attacking them. The poisonous creatures also scattered in all directions.

The people that survived looked at each other in dismay, not knowing what was going on.

At the peak of a grand mountain in the center of the Exceptional Mortal Realm, where it was connected to the sky, there was a spatial crack that was dozens of feet long. Groups of spirit insects of all shapes and sizes were gathering from all directions and flying towards the crack.

However, almost all of the spirit insects were torn to pieces by the power of space the moment they flew into the crack. Only a few dozen Gold Devouring Beetles flew in safely.

… …

Gaochang Immortal Domain, Moth Sect.

There was a low mountain range that was hidden in a ten thousand mile miasma. The entire belly of the mountain was almost hollowed out, and there were labyrinth-like passages and hundreds of palaces inside.

Countless alien races with ant heads but human bodies, all of them wearing the same black armor, were busily traversing through the labyrinth tunnels.

At this moment, in a huge underground palace in the deepest part of the mountain, there was a huge white ant queen. Her lower body was fat and snow-white, and she looked like a spring silkworm. However, her upper body was no different from a human, and she even had the face of a beautiful woman.

At this moment, a faintly discernible heaven and earth trembled. The white ant queen's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and they were filled with disbelief and joy.

"Could it be … impossible, no, it must be … it must be …"

She cried out incoherently. Her body flashed, and she instantly turned into a human. She turned into a young woman wearing a white gauze dress, and her aura was at the late stage of the Grand Luo Realm.

"Come …"

With a loud shout, seven or eight figures quickly rushed in from outside the palace and knelt on the ground with cupped fists.

"The day we've been waiting for has finally come. Gather the army and come out in full force …" The ant queen shouted loudly.

"Yes." When the eight people heard this, they were shocked at first, and then they were overjoyed and answered one after another.

On this day, the largest insect tide in history broke out everywhere in the Gaochang Immortal Domain.

However, for some reason, these spiritual insects that seemed to have agreed to riot together didn't attack the cities, but gathered towards the highest peak of the Immortal Domain, Zhu Yuanfeng.

Some busybodies went to investigate and found that a huge spatial rift that was tens of thousands of meters wide had appeared in the sky above Zhu Yuanfeng.

…

Northern Frost Immortal Domain.

In the extreme north of the Dark Frost Continent, there was a snowy field that was raging with snow all year round. The ground was sealed by ice that had been frozen for ten thousand years. Not only were there few people, but even other living beings were difficult to find.

A ten thousand meters tall iceberg stood alone on it. It was crystal blue, and only a huge and blurry shadow could be seen in the snowstorm.

Without warning, a light "crack" sound pierced through the howling of the wind in the snowstorm.

Huge pieces of the iceberg peeled off from the mountain and let out a series of rumbling sounds, revealing a huge cocoon that was tens of thousands of meters tall.

With a light "crack" sound, the huge cocoon suddenly split open, and a large expanse of dark blue light shone from it. Cold air that soared into the sky shot out from it, and almost froze the falling snowstorm in the surrounding 50 kilometers.

Within the blue light, a white-haired man with two long tentacles on his forehead flew out from it.

His cheeks were thin, and he looked quite handsome. His eyes shone with a dark blue crystal light, and his gaze was piercingly cold and filled with a strange sense of charm.

His figure was quite tall, and he wore a blue leather armor. There were four blue light wings on his back that were flickering, and the aura on his body was actually at the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm.

"King, you're finally coming back …" He murmured as he looked at the sky that was covered by the snowstorm with his dark blue eyes.

In the next moment, he flapped his four wings, and a strong snowstorm surged around him, but his figure had already disappeared.

…

Somewhere in the Heavenly Court in the Heavenly Palace Continent of the Central Earth Celestial Realm.

In a huge palace that was completely emerald green like jade, a tall man with short hair and bare shoulders, a face like a diamond, eyes wide open, and bulging muscles all over his body, was pacing back and forth in front of an emerald throne. The veins on his forehead were slightly bulging, and his expression was rather stern.

There were a few Heavenly Court's Divine Officials standing before him. They were clearly Grand Heavenly Realm experts, but all of them had their hands by their sides as they stood before this person. Their faces were filled with reverence, and there was a hint of fear in them.

There was no other reason than that this diamond like man was called Xuanyuan Jie. He was a Dao Ancestor of the Five Elements, and one of the Seven Lords of Heavenly Law who stood at the peak of the Heavenly Court.

"Is what you said true?

Apart from Immortal Lord Huliang, even Tong Qiu was assassinated? "Xuanyuan Jie grabbed the armrest of the throne and asked coldly.

"Reporting to the Heavenly Lord Patriarch, the Eight Sons of Samsara were all mobilized, and they formed groups of two to hunt down the powerhouses who came to participate in the Bodhi Banquet in the various Celestial Realms. It was really impossible to guard against them.

Those two have already been assassinated and died. "One of them knelt with a thud and hurriedly explained.

The others immediately bowed and did not dare to speak again.

Immortal Lord Huliang was nothing, but Perfected Being Tong Qiu was the son of an old friend of Xuanyuan Jie's. Although they did not interact much, their relationship had always been there.
