Among the spatial fissures, a vast snowfield could be seen within one of them.

A white-haired man with two long feelers on his forehead stood amidst the snowstorm. His figure almost blended into the snowy white.

At that moment, he was looking over with his head raised. His expression did not change at all.

All of a sudden, the man grinned. His figure suddenly soared high into the sky. He spread his hands in front of him, and a hazy white light shone from within, directly penetrating the space crack.

Immediately after, the hazy white light suddenly expanded and actually forcefully tore open the space crack that was originally only a few dozen feet wide. The white-haired man's figure flashed, and he passed through it and entered the Outer Space.

The moment he stepped into the void, a snow-white light lit up around him, directly shattering the spatial storm that swept towards him. With a flash, he arrived before the golden beetle, directly cupped his fists, and knelt down.

"Subordinate Shuang Bai welcomes the king's return," the white-haired man said with an excited expression.

As soon as his voice trailed off, a young woman in a white chiffon dress stepped out of one of the spatial rifts with hundreds of ant-like men in black armor.

Outside the spatial fissures were countless black-armored soldier ants. They stood in an orderly manner like an army, guarding there.

"Shuang Bai, I thought Qing Feng would be the first to arrive. I didn't expect it to be you, you lazy bum," the young woman said with a smile when she saw the white-haired man.

Hearing that, Shuang Bai turned around and looked at her, then calmly called out, "Yi Jiu …"

The young woman called Yi Jiu was slightly surprised. "You're still alone, and you're still as cold as ever. Or … Oh, your cultivation level has increased by quite a bit?"

In her memory, when she followed the Insect King to fight against the Heavenly Court, most of the eight generals under the Insect King had died in battle. Among the three who survived, apart from Qing Feng, the one with the most serious injuries was Shuang Bai.

"Back then, I couldn't help the king against the enemy and luckily survived. How could I not cultivate with all my might?

It's a pity that I'm still unable to reach the king's level, "Shuang Bai said.

"It's already very good that you can think like that." At that moment, a voice as soft as a mosquito suddenly sounded from Shuang Bai's shoulder.

Yi Qiu and Shuang Bai were shocked at the same time, but they immediately relaxed.

A buzzing sound came from Shuang Bai's shoulder. It was a green wasp that was not much bigger than the tip of a finger. It flapped its wings and flew up.

He flew out of Shuang Bai's shoulder, and suddenly, a green light flashed on his body. Then, he turned into a tall man wearing a green soft armor, and landed in front of them.

The man looked like a middle-aged man in his forties. His shoulder-length, slightly curly black hair was scattered behind his head. His face looked a little tired, and his face was covered with dark green stubble. He looked like a destitute drunkard, and he didn't seem to be fully awake.

However, his eyes were filled with divine light, especially the circle of golden patterns around his pupils. There seemed to be a strange luster that could suck away one's soul, making it difficult to forget.

When the Black Armored Soldier Ants behind Yi Jiu saw this, they drew their weapons and prepared to surround them.

"Stand down." Yi Jiu raised her hand and stopped the soldier ants.

"Qingfeng, looks like your concealment law has improved again. The two of us actually did not discover it.

When did you get here? "Shuang Bai frowned and asked.

"I received the king's summon, so I rushed here immediately." Qingfeng rubbed his cheeks and said.

"Have you heard the king's order?" Yi Jiu asked hurriedly.

"No, ever since I arrived, the king has not said anything to me." Qingfeng glanced at the golden beetle and shook his head.

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden light in front of the golden beetle surged. A woman's shadow flew out and hovered in the air. Her eyes were filled with golden light, and she looked at the people in front of her emotionlessly.

The woman's appearance was quite young, and she even looked like a young girl. It was Jin Tong.

"Greetings, Insect Ancestor." When Qingfeng and the other two saw this, they were overjoyed and knelt on the ground.

"Today, I will try to return to the position of Tao Ancestor. I hope that you will protect me and resist all invading enemies." Jin Tong's eyes slowly glanced at the three and said.

"We will risk our lives." The three's eyes flickered with joy, and they answered.

The woman's shadow nodded and did not say anything else. She slowly retreated and merged back into the body of the golden beetle.

In an instant, the light around the golden beetle became more and more dazzling. Waves of very special waves were emitted from it, and they surged in all directions.

The spatial rifts in the surroundings also began to vibrate, transmitting the fluctuations outwards.

The spiritual insects that rushed over from the Immortal Realm became even more frenzied. They rushed through the cracks and headed for the extraterritorial space. The Metal-devouring Insects that were scattered everywhere also flew out from the cracks and kept surging toward the golden light.

Among these Metal-devouring Insects, there were immature larvae and Golden Devouring Immortals that had cultivated to the Primordial Unity Realm. However, there were no Golden Devouring Immortals in the Grand Heavenly Realm, as they had all merged with Jin Tong.

"That bastard Xuanyuan Jie will not let this go. We have to be prepared." Shuang Bai pondered for a moment and said.

"This time, we must not let him threaten the king even if we have to be smashed to pieces." Shuang Bai's face turned cold, and he said coldly.

"I'll control the insects to set up the formation. You guys pay attention to the cracks everywhere. Don't let the enemy sneak in." Yi Jiu looked around and said slowly.

"I'll drive away those Heavenly Demons that are watching from afar. I'll leave this place to you guys." Qing Feng turned his eyes and looked at the huge Heavenly Demon Cloud in the distance.

After he finished speaking, the tired expression on his face suddenly disappeared. A golden light flashed in his eyes, and the aura on his body completely disappeared in an instant.

Yi Jiu and Shuang Bai were stunned, and Qing Feng was nowhere to be seen.

"He's … stronger than before." Yi Jiu frowned and said.

Among the three of them, she was the one with the least injuries. Now, she was also the one with the lowest cultivation.

Shuang Bai saw the guilt and disappointment in her eyes, and he comforted her, "You're good at setting up formations. Don't worry too much about other things. Just do what you should do."

Hearing this, Yi Jiu nodded. She flew up and rushed to the front of the golden beetle. The black-armored soldier ants behind her hurriedly followed.

After giving orders to all the soldier ants, all of them began to scatter and blend into the army of insects surrounding the golden beetle.

Soon, the originally chaotic insect army began to divide and regroup in an orderly manner. Like a well-disciplined army, they were arranged around Jin Tong under Yi Jiu's orders.

As more and more Spirit Bugs joined in, a massive Spirit Bug Formation gradually took shape.

Shuang Bai's eyes narrowed slightly. Looking at the scene before him, he took a deep breath. There was a flash of blue light around him, and he released an extremely cold white mist that spread in all directions.

His spirit sense also spread out in the mist, and he closely observed the situation in all the cracks in the surrounding space.

…

As time passed bit by bit, the army of the insect swarm became larger and larger. Countless insects with extraordinary innate talents or rather high cultivations came to Jin Tong's side to protect their king after withstanding the pressure of the outer realm's spatial power.

Under Yi Jiu's command, the insect army densely covered the outer space, forming a huge formation in the shape of a giant scorpion. One of the scorpion's pincers was snow-white, and it gave off an eerie chill. The other was dark green, and it burned with green flames.

On the giant scorpion's tail that was raised high, there was a poisonous sting that looked like a curved hook. It flickered with a sharp light.

At that moment, Jin Tong was completely drowned by the golden light, and the beetle was nowhere to be seen. There was only a huge golden ball of light that was protected by the giant scorpion's back like a jewel. There was a strong suction force around it, and it kept spreading out.

Just at this moment, a loud sound like that of a large bell suddenly came from the light ball on the back of the giant scorpion. A hazy light enshrouded the light ball, and an exquisite figure of a woman condensed and floated above the golden ball. Naturally, it was Jin Tong.

With a soft chant, he suddenly spread his hands, as if he was making a welcoming gesture. A golden vortex appeared out of nowhere in front of his chest, and it connected to the golden ball of light below like a funnel.

Immediately afterwards, the spatial cracks in the surrounding space violently trembled. Countless Gold Devouring Beetles surged in from the cracks, and they fell into the golden vortex like a golden waterfall.

Under the dazzling golden light, it was as if a sun had appeared out of nowhere in the originally deep and serene space. The surrounding area was filled with golden light.

Standing on the giant scorpion's head, Yi Jiu turned around and saw this spectacular scene. She could not hide the excitement on her face, and her eyes could not help but moisten. Not far away, a white mist condensed, and Shuang Bai's figure appeared.

"After waiting for countless years, this day has finally come," Shuang Bai murmured as he fixed his gaze on Jin Tong's figure.

Yi Jiu glanced at him, then at the distance, and asked, "Where's Qing Feng?

He still hasn't returned? "

"The Extraterrestrial Demons aren't that easy to deal with, but they should be back soon," Shuang Bai said.

Hearing this, Yi Jiu wanted to say something, but her expression suddenly changed.

She turned her gaze, and just as she was about to look at the largest spatial crack in the space in front of her, she discovered that Shuang Bai's figure had already disappeared, and he had already rushed in that direction.

But before Shuang Bai could reach there, a black shadow flashed in the spatial crack, and a mountain that was over a hundred meters tall pierced out, directly appearing in the outer space.

"Oh no."

After Yi Jiao muttered to herself, her body immediately soared into the sky. However, she did not recklessly charge toward the mountain. Instead, with a thought, she commanded the giant scorpion below to raise its two giant pincers and assumed a defensive posture.
