“Just call me Wuxin. Once I reach the Eternal Realm, I dare not call myself the Dark God Emperor anymore. If any powerful figure finds the title ‘Dark God Emperor’ unpleasant and decides to kill me, that would be disastrous,” the Dark God Emperor added.

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng was speechless.

The Dark God Emperor and the Underworld Lord are among the strongest in the Ancient Realm. They have always been able to get whatever they want and act without restraint.

However, once they arrived at this Eternal Realm, the two of them became very cautious and dared not even use their former titles anymore.

"It seems that only the three of us from this Ancient Realm have obtained the Ancient Token and come to participate in this Celestial Gathering." The Dark God Emperor glanced around indifferently. Although there were countless Lingxiao Realm cultivators around, they were all unfamiliar faces, clearly powerful figures from other Ancient Realms.

Besides this training ground, there was another training ground. That training ground was also vast and huge, with many figures standing on it, but in terms of numbers, it was far less than this training ground.

"There... there's actually a training ground there?"

"If I'm not mistaken, the people on that training ground should be geniuses who originally came from the Eternal Realm!"

"A genius from the Eternal Realm?"

Countless gazes turned towards the other training ground. The geniuses on that training ground stood casually, showing no surprise at their surroundings. Furthermore, these geniuses occasionally cast glances at this training ground—gazes that these Lingxiao Realm cultivators from the Ancient Realm could clearly see.

There was a hint of undisguised disdain in his eyes!
Clearly, those geniuses from the native land of the Eternal Realm didn't look down on these outsiders.

After all, the Thousand-Year Realm is merely a lower-level plane world, while the Eternal Realm is the true core of the Heavenly Dao. These geniuses and powerful individuals born and raised there inevitably possess an innate pride.

“I have heard that in the Ancient Realm where I am, a super strong person was once born. It is said that the strong person had cultivated to the Eternal Realm, and even in this Myriad Realms, he can be considered a true strong person. When he returned to the Ancient Realm, he said that the gap between the Myriad Realms and the Ancient Realm is huge.”

Among the crowd, an elderly man in purple robes was speaking eloquently.

"Those born in the Eternal Realm are born with unique advantages. They only need to cultivate, and even if their talent is low, they can easily reach the Lingxiao Realm within a hundred years, and they can also have a certain level of attainment in the comprehension of the Dao. As for those with slightly stronger talent, there are countless people who break through to the Lingxiao Realm in just a few decades! Their comprehension of the Dao is also extremely high. These innate advantages are simply incomparable to those of our Thousand Ancient Realm."

Upon hearing the words of the purple-robed elder, a commotion immediately arose among the crowd.

Even without much talent, one can easily reach the Lingxiao Realm within a hundred years?

It should be noted that in their respective ancient realms, which are small plane worlds with countless martial artists, only a handful can truly reach the Lingxiao Realm.

Just like the Divine Continent where Ying Zheng lived, there were countless martial artists, but there were only three Lingxiao Realm experts before, namely the Three Ancestors.

People from the Ancient Realm endure countless hardships and struggle through life-and-death trials before finally having a sliver of hope to reach the Lingxiao Realm.

However, in the Eternal Realm, the Soaring Realm is far too common.

"Comparing yourself to others is just asking for trouble," many people secretly complained.

“Even in the most ordinary places in this Eternal Realm, the concentration of spiritual energy and origin is more than a hundred times that of the Thousand Ancient Realm. And in some special places, the concentration of spiritual energy and origin is probably hundreds or even thousands of times higher than that of the Thousand Ancient Realm. Cultivating under such good conditions is naturally better than that of us people in the Thousand Ancient Realm.” The Dark God Emperor muttered to himself, a hint of unwilling crimson in his eyes.

"No wonder those geniuses from the Eternal Realm look down on us. The difference in innate conditions is just too great," Ying Zheng couldn't help but sigh.

"Hmph, it's just that their cultivation conditions are better. What's there to be so proud of? We will also be cultivating in this Eternal Realm in the future, and our achievements may not be lower than theirs," Ming Liu said somewhat unconvinced.

Amidst the murmurs of discussion, many cultivators from the Ancient Realm who had come from the Thousand Ancient Realms felt a surge of discontent as they noticed the disdainful gazes directed their way.

But just then—

"boom!"

An incomparably powerful force suddenly erupted from the direction where those geniuses from the Eternal Realm had gathered.

"Fellow Daoist Ying Zheng, no offense, but what's the point of buying this piece of junk?"

Bai Bing then added.

"Didn't you see? After the old man got the money, he just packed up and left. He's obviously a heartless businessman."

Ying Zheng glanced at Bai Bing, then at the black stone in his hand, and said:

"Even if it's not a good thing, it doesn't matter. Just consider it as buying an ornament with these five thousand jade crystals."

Bai Bing's face immediately fell, and she stared at Ying Zheng with a resentful expression.

"I think the money you have is a loan from me? You actually spent five thousand jade crystals on a mere ornament? That's incredibly extravagant!"

Ying Zheng glanced at Bai Bing but didn't say anything more.

……

"Luo Hou, why isn't Ying Zheng here? Is he hiding somewhere, waiting to ambush us?"

After Demon Ancestor Rahu and Ancestor Yangmei infiltrated the prehistoric world, they went into hiding.

"I don't know either. It's too quiet here... But this primordial world really does seem to be under the control of Ying Zheng."

Demon Ancestor Rahu said to Ancestor Yangmei.

Ancestor Yangmei looked around and indeed, the primordial world had stopped expanding.

"We don't know how to make this primordial world continue to devour the existing world. Perhaps only the Dao Ancestor Hongjun knows the secret."

"That's what Demon Ancestor Rahu said."

Ancestor Yangmei attempted to slowly probe his own Dao power into the primordial world.

"There seems to be a boundary wall around this primordial world, preventing my Dao power from penetrating."

After trying it out, Ancestor Yangmei said to Demon Ancestor Luo Hou.

Pangu's primordial spirit, hidden near the primordial world, sensed someone probing into the primordial world with their Dao power.

He immediately stopped hiding, revealed himself, and shouted loudly:
"Who's hiding here? Come out right now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Pangu's primordial spirit spread his Dao power around him, beginning to search for the figures hidden in the void.

Seeing this, Demon Ancestor Rahu and Ancestor Yangmei hurriedly fled the prehistoric world, fearing that they would be discovered by Pangu's primordial spirit.

After escaping hundreds of thousands of feet, the two stopped, panting heavily.

"We were almost discovered. Luckily we left quickly, otherwise we would have faced a fierce battle."

Demon Ancestor Rahu said to Ancestor Yangmei.

Ancestor Yangmei nodded in agreement:

"As expected, there really is someone hiding near the primordial world, just waiting for us to come to them."

Demon Ancestor Rahu nodded.

“I just sensed that Pangu’s primordial spirit’s power has become increasingly profound, and his strength has recovered considerably. If it weren’t for Dao Ancestor Hongjun, we probably wouldn’t be his match.”

Ancestor Yangmei sighed deeply, a strong sense of powerlessness welling up in his heart.

"Let's wait until Dao Ancestor Hongjun finishes his cultivation before we come together. Otherwise, we really don't have the confidence to fight against Pangu's Primordial Spirit."

Demon Ancestor Rahu nodded in agreement.

"What just appeared was only Pangu's primordial spirit; Ying Zheng might be hiding in some corner, lurking and watching."

With that, Demon Ancestor Rahu and Ancestor Yangmei left the place and returned to their previous hiding place.

After Pangu's primordial spirit searched the surroundings without finding anything, it muttered to itself:
"Just now I clearly sensed someone using their Dao power to explore the primordial world, how come I can't find them anymore in the blink of an eye?"

Then, the figure of Pangu's primordial spirit slowly disappeared, once again hiding near the primordial world.

……

After returning to the tribe, Bai Bing arranged a place for Ying Zheng and Nuwa to stay.

"Please stay here for the next couple of days. Don't mind the simple conditions, just make do for now."

Bai Bing pushed open the door and spoke to Nuwa and Ying Zheng.

"It's alright. Finding a place to stay in such a frigid place is already a rare privilege, how could we possibly complain?"

Ying Zheng responded.

"Fellow Daoist Ying Zheng, I still can't help but say something...you really..."

Before Bai Bing could finish speaking, Ying Zheng pushed her out the door, and the door closed tightly behind her.

"Hey, hey, why did you push me out? Don't do this, don't do this..." Bai Bing looked at the tightly closed door, shook her head helplessly, and turned to leave.

"We'll stay here for the next couple of days, and then go with the clan leader to search for the Purple Extreme Profound Fruit. After all, we're not familiar with this place yet."

Ying Zheng said to Nuwa.

"Okay, whatever you say."

……

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. During these two days, Ying Zheng wasted not a single moment, constantly absorbing the surrounding Dao power to temper himself.

Just as I finished my cultivation, there was a knock on the door.

"Fellow Daoist Ying Zheng, it's time. We should head deep into the Frigid Lands to search for the Purple Extreme Profound Fruit."

Bai Bing's voice came from outside the door.

"Okay, I'll be right there."

Ying Zheng stood up and responded.

Before long, the door opened, and Ying Zheng and Nuwa came out.

"Come with me to the main hall, they are all waiting."

As Bai Bing spoke, she led the way, guiding Ying Zheng and Nuwa into the main hall.

Upon entering the main hall, Ying Zheng saw the chieftain he had met when he first entered the tribe. Beside the chieftain stood four people dressed in black armor.

"Young friend Ying Zheng has arrived. Today we can venture deep into the frigid lands."

During the past two days, while Ying Zheng and Nuwa were staying in the tribe, the chieftain had already inquired about Ying Zheng's name from Bai Bing.

"Yes, Chieftain, we are ready and can depart at any time."

Ying Zheng responded.

"Alright, let's set off then!"

After saying this, the chieftain led everyone outside the tribe.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the tribe, Ying Zheng spotted several snow wolves in the distance.

The clan chief's voice then rang out:
"We'll ride these snow wolves to the depths of the frigid lands in a little while. That will be much faster."

As he spoke, the clan chief led everyone to the snow wolf's side.

After Ying Zheng and the others mounted the snow wolves, they continued onward under the leadership of the clan chief.

Before we knew it, five days had passed.

"The place where the Purple Extreme Profound Fruit appeared is just ahead. Let's walk there from here."

A huge opening appeared in the distance. The opening was extremely wide, and several icicles hung upside down above it.

The clan chief explained to Ying Zheng:

"This cave is called the Frost Cave, where the Purple Extreme Mystic Fruit grows. The temperature here is extremely low, which is suitable for the growth of the Purple Extreme Mystic Fruit."

The Ice Cave, as its name suggests, contains many ancient ice formations.

The clan leader took out a trident and walked ahead to clear the way.

At this moment, Bai Bing moved closer to Ying Zheng.

"This icy cave also hides many dangers. Many demonic beasts live here. Although they are not top-tier in strength, their defense is extremely strong."

Ying Zheng nodded, looked at Bai Bing who had moved closer to him, and said nothing.

Bai Bing chuckled and said to Ying Zheng:

"I still feel safer staying by your side."

Looking at Bai Bing, who was so afraid of death, Ying Zheng said to him:
“On the path of cultivation, one must not be so afraid of life and death. We are competing with the myriad paths of heaven and earth for cultivation resources. If you are timid and hesitant, your achievements in this life will stop here.”

Bai Bing heard this but did not react at all, and continued to walk close to Ying Zheng.

A voice from Nuwa echoed in Ying Zheng's mind:

"This Bai Bing is really afraid of dying."

Ying Zheng smiled at Nuwa and nodded.

Just then, the clan chief's voice rang in everyone's ears:

"Next is the area where monsters roam, everyone be on guard."

As you enter the cave, the wind howls past.

The Ice Cave is a hidden world inside, with a space that is dozens of times larger than it appears from the outside.

Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed past them.

"All personnel on high alert! Be extremely vigilant and observe your surroundings."

"That's what the clan chief said, walking in front."

"Can't you see what that is?"

Ying Zheng asked Bai Bing, who was standing beside him.

Bai Bing turned her head to look at Ying Zheng:

"I can't see clearly, I can only see a dark shadow. Can you possibly see it clearly?"

Ying Zheng nodded and said to Bai Bing:

“That was a white tiger. I’ve seen records of it in ancient books before.”

Then, Ying Zheng explained the habits and characteristics of the White Tiger to Bai Bing.

Upon hearing this, Bai Bing felt a chill run down her spine and moved closer to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng patted Bai Bing on the shoulder:

"Don't be afraid, I'm here, I'll make sure you get out of here alive."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a white tiger appeared before them.

A series of tiger roars swept towards the group.

The white tiger intended to disrupt the group's formation so it could defeat them one by one. However, the group remained unmoved and drew their weapons.

The clan leader took the lead, wielding his trident to stab at the white tiger's back.

The white tiger, in pain, let out a roar and leaped around, throwing the clan leader off.

The clan chief steadied himself and shouted to the crowd:

"Kill it quickly! White tigers usually appear in groups, it's very unusual to see only one!"

After saying this, the clan chief led four men dressed in black armor to surround the white tiger.

A series of metallic clanging sounds rang out. The white tiger was extremely fast and possessed astonishing defensive capabilities.

The weapons of the crowd struck it, leaving only shallow wounds.

A moment later, a person wearing armor was knocked to the ground.

The white tiger pounced instantly, intending to kill him. At this critical moment, Ying Zheng intervened.

Ying Zheng unleashed the Dao-Breaking Spear and casually hurled it. Wherever the Dao-Breaking Spear passed, the void instantly vanished. (End of Chapter)
