Tianhai Fairy Journey

Chapter 1571 South Sea Immortal Palace
Deep within the Primordial Wilderness.

Rumble!!

A massive array composed of thousands of crimson banners enveloped the heavens and earth, unleashing a vast torrent of crimson flames.

"Summon the Ancients!"

With a deep, aged shout.

Crimson banners shot into the sky, each one condensing into an ancient fire-elemental demonic beast phantom within its massive, surging surface. Roar! Roar! Roar! Thousands of ancient, fiery demonic beast phantoms transformed into a surging tide of beasts, rushing towards a secluded valley below.

Roar!Roar!
With a series of ancient roars, a colossal, hundreds-of-foot-tall, earth-yellow scaled beast soared into the sky, its thick tail sweeping across the sky, causing numerous phantom images of fire-type demonic beasts to crumble.

However, at this moment, the entire formation erupted once more, with endless crimson runes intertwining and transforming into a vast fiery domain that completely sealed off this world, firmly surrounding the ancient, earth-yellow scaled beast that exuded a boundless and ancient aura.

Outside the great formation.

Two figures stood silently in mid-air.

“Young Master, there are many ancient and powerful demons hidden deep within the Yuanhuang Domain. With just the two of us, I'm afraid it will be difficult to help you clear away the obstacles!”

Old Master Ming scanned his surroundings warily, just in case.

As an ancient land on the verge of extinction, the entire Yuanhuang Domain contains countless powerful ancient demon kings. Even he needs to be cautious when venturing into this place.

They feared that some ancient monster might suddenly awaken and harm Young Master Baili Luo, who was standing nearby.

The entire Baili family now attaches great importance to this young master, and they must not allow any accidents to happen to him in their hands.

"Don't worry, Elder Ming, I have already spoken with the First Elder, and the family will soon arrange for a powerful expert to come in person!" Baili Luo said with a faint smile.

"Peak late-stage Nascent Soul?"

"Not bad!"

Baili Luo nodded: "The Grand Elder has already agreed to this."

"It seems the family has truly poured their heart and soul into the young master!"

A look of emotion appeared on Old Ming's face.

The fact that the family sent a clan elder at the peak of the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm to personally escort a clan member shows that the entire family's regard for this young master is far beyond his imagination.

Even looking at the entire Xuan Nan Continent, a powerhouse at the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage is almost a being who overlooks the world.

At that very moment.

The fierce battle at the front has entered a critical stage.

But all that could be seen was the melting of countless ancient fire-elemental demonic beast phantoms, transforming into thick chains of spiritual flames that firmly imprisoned the late-stage fourth-tier earth-yellow scaled ancient demon, the vast power of spiritual flames continuously burning the ancient demon.

Roar!Roar!
The ancient demon with earthen-yellow scales roared to the sky, and crimson demon blood began to seep from the depths of its original earthen-yellow body. Each scale was instantly stained blood red. The next moment, streaks of blood-red scales began to leave its body at the same time, like countless blood-red blades, shooting wildly in all directions.

The crimson flame chains were constantly torn apart, and the earth-yellow scaled ancient beast seized the opportunity to soar into the sky, breaking free from the crimson flame chains and crashing fiercely into the outer array barrier! Boom! Boom! Boom! Relying on its vast accumulated power over countless years, the earth-yellow scaled ancient beast forcefully broke through the array and then accelerated towards the depths of the Yuanhuang Domain.

"Elder Xuyang, forget it!"

Seeing that the tall, red-robed elder who was in charge of the formation was still planning to continue the pursuit, Elder Ming quickly spoke up to stop him.

"Since this demon has already escaped, it won't affect your cultivation, young master. Don't pursue a desperate enemy!"

For the two of them, the most important thing was to protect the young master's cultivation, rather than hunting a late-stage fourth-order ancient demon, no matter how valuable it was, it would be meaningless.

"Ha ha!"

With a hearty laugh, the tall, red-robed elder chuckled as he dismantled the great formation and flew backward: "That beast was lucky; it actually managed to break free from the formation's confinement!"

"This demon has lived for countless years. Even if its combat strength is average, the power contained within its body is almost limitless, making it very difficult to truly kill it!"

Just as Elder Ming continued to offer words of comfort...

But they were interrupted by a continuous rumble of the heavens and earth, and Baili Luo and the other two immediately looked into the distance.

But then, in the direction where the ancient, earth-yellow scaled demon had fled, the previously stable space suddenly collapsed, and thousands of silver patterns intertwined from within, instantly forming a hole.

"That's an ancient teleportation array!"

Elder Ming's expression instantly showed slight surprise.

As a member of the Baili family, he immediately recognized the extraordinary spatial silver pattern as an extremely rare ancient teleportation array.

Most importantly, anyone capable of using an ancient teleportation array is clearly no ordinary person.

"Brother Qing!"

Baili Luo, who was standing to the side, suddenly smiled.

The moment the spatial anomaly appeared, the token at his waist lit up.

Sure enough, the next moment a young figure in a green robe stepped out of the air and appeared in the sky above the shattered world.

"Brother Baili!"

On the other side, Li Qing first showed surprise and then smiled wryly.

Unexpectedly, by sheer coincidence, when I appeared through the ancient teleportation array of the Dream Cloud Sect, I encountered the person I was meant to meet.

The next moment, Li Qing looked towards the distance.

But all that could be seen was a several-hundred-foot-tall, earth-yellow ancient beast fleeing in panic. Judging from its injuries, it was definitely the work of Brother Baili and his group.

Just as Li Qing was about to make his move.

A sudden movement came from above my shoulder; a small, red bird hopped back and forth.

"Leave the master to me, I'll handle this demon!"

"Go!"

Li Qing smiled and nodded, then landed directly towards Baili Luo and his group in the distance.

at the same time.

"Die!"

With a loud, arrogant laugh, a crimson demon bird over a hundred feet tall suddenly spread its wings and chased after the ancient, earth-yellow scaled beast that was fleeing in the distance.

"Brother Baili!"

The power of space flowed out around Li Qing, and then instantly tore through the sky and appeared in front of Baili Luo and the other two.

"What an unexpected coincidence!"

Baili Luo smiled and shook his head: "I originally intended to wait for Brother Qing in Shuangyuan Immortal City, but I never expected to meet you here."

"That's really true!"

Li Qing chuckled softly.

It was such a coincidence that the ancient teleportation array could only pinpoint a vague location, yet it allowed the two to meet directly in the depths of the Yuanhuang Domain.

"Greetings, fellow Daoists!"

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Qingxuan!"

The two elders quickly returned the greeting.

"Is that Brother Qing's latest tamed beast?"

Baili Luo looked curiously at the fierce battle in the distance.

But the ancient demon with the impressive yellowish-brown scales was once again surrounded by the raging demonic flames. The crimson demonic bird, over a hundred feet long, kept falling, its large, sharp claws easily tearing through the ancient demon's tough scales, leaving behind bloody holes.

Looking around, the ancient demon with earthen-yellow scales was utterly powerless to fight back; its thick tail could barely touch the terrifying demon sparrow.

"It's a mount I just tamed not long ago!"

Li Qing smiled faintly, "The Sky-Splitting Sparrow Sacred Beast bloodline, its strength is not bad." "Not bad?"

The two elders standing to the side twitched slightly at the corners of their mouths.
Considering that they had set up a grand formation beforehand, they still failed to capture the ancient beast, demonstrating its formidable strength.

At this moment, the powerful demon from the Sky-Splitting Sparrow lineage was almost completely overwhelming him.

"Indeed, compared to this one, that terrifying descendant of the Sky-Splitting Sparrow can only be considered decent, after all, this one's strength has already reached the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage."

At that very moment.

It fell with a mournful cry.

The already severely injured ancient beast could no longer withstand the Sky-Splitting Sparrow's attack and ultimately perished under its massive claws.

"Master, Jiutian has already slain a powerful enemy for you!"

The Sky-Splitter, clutching the massive body of an ancient demon as large as a mountain, swiftly descended towards the group.

"Not bad!"

As Li Qing nodded in praise, the Sky-Splitting Sparrow revealed a smug look in its demonic eyes: "I, Jiutian, am a descendant of a noble sacred beast bloodline. How could I, a mere foolish ancient demon, be compared to you?"

Upon hearing this, Li Qing smiled and shook his head.

He had already figured out the Sky Sparrow's personality; it was almost like a proud human boy, and of course, a talkative one.

That makes sense, since the Sky Sparrow isn't fully mature yet.

"I must say, the three of you are indeed too weak; you were able to let this mere demon escape."

Before the Sky-Splitter Sparrow could finish its mocking words, it was met with a cold and sharp gaze. Upon seeing this, the Sky-Splitter Sparrow stopped abruptly, instantly abandoning its enormous ancient demon body, shrinking countless times, and landing back on Li Qing's shoulder, transforming into a harmless red bird.

"Brother Baili and fellow Daoists, please don't be offended. This demon's mind is not yet mature!"

"It's alright, although it's direct, it's the truth!"

Baili Luo chuckled lightly: "Brother Qing, why don't you come with us to Shuangyuan Immortal City for a chat?"

"Brother Baili, why don't you cultivate here for a while?"

“No need!” Baili Luo shook his head: “This ancient demon has already perished, and I can come at any time.”

Upon hearing this, a strange light appeared in Li Qing's eyes.

It seems that the opportunity was quite urgent.

"Alright!"

"Since I was unable to prepare a gift to celebrate Brother Baili's advancement on this trip, I will use this ancient beast's body as my greeting gift."

Seeing that Baili Luo was about to decline, Li Qing continued with a smile, "There's no need for us to be so polite."

"I already feel guilty for troubling Brother Baili to gather information about this land for me!"

"Fine!"

Baili Luo smiled and nodded.

Elder Ming quickly and proactively retrieved the massive ancient demon's body from below; such spoils were invaluable even to a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Brother Qing, please."
-
Shuangyuan Immortal City.

Inside an elegant attic.

"Brother Qing, do you remember the South China Sea that I mentioned to you back then?"

"Of course I remember!"

A hint of curiosity appeared in Li Qing's eyes: "I have also longed to visit it for a long time. Could it be that Brother Baili summoned me here because something important has happened in the South China Sea?"

"Not bad!"

Baili Luo nodded: "After Brother Qing asked me to do that thing back then, I personally informed the Grand Elder about it."

"Not long ago, the Grand Elder personally sent a message that a remarkable opportunity is about to arise in the South China Sea!"

"It's likely that major top-tier forces will participate, and our Baili family is also qualified to participate voluntarily."

Baili Luo then recounted the entire story.

It turns out that in the vast inner sea of ​​the Xuan Nan Continent, a legendary South Sea Immortal Palace will appear, which will cause all parties to vie for entry.

"I don't know much about the South China Sea Fairy Palace either."

Baili Luo pondered for a moment and said, "However, the Grand Elder once said that it contains all sorts of legendary treasures and even ancient inheritances!"

"The South Sea Immortal Palace appears at different times each time, but each time it releases numerous opportunities and treasures, too many to count. There are even reports of fifth-order Dao-attribute items appearing."

"The so-called South Sea Celestial Palace is more like a treasure trove; it manifests in the world whenever it has stored up enough power to open it."

Li Qing's eyes flickered slightly.

Putting aside everything else, the fact that it can attract the attention of major top forces is enough to prove its value.

This trip should be worthwhile.

"The specifics can only be discussed in detail when Brother Qing meets with the Grand Elder in person."

"it is good!"

Li Qing cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you, Brother Baili, to do this for me."

Baili Luo chuckled lightly: "Brother Qing, there's no need for that. According to the Grand Elder, this trip is a collaboration between our Baili family and Brother Qing, not a free opportunity."

"I am not yet aware of the inside story, but if the Baili family really needs Brother Qing's help, that would be a great thing!"

"What do you mean by that, Brother Baili?"

Li Qing asked in surprise.

"Didn't Brother Qing once say that he intended to build an ancient teleportation array?"

“If the family really needs Brother Qing’s help, wouldn’t this be an excellent opportunity?” Baili Luo said meaningfully.

Li Qing smiled and shook his head: "If I could participate in the South Sea Immortal Palace, it would already be a stroke of good fortune for me. I shouldn't be too greedy."

"Brother Qing, there's no need for that!"

Baili Luo, on the contrary, took it in stride: "Brother Qing, please don't worry about our friendship. This is a private matter between us. Since it's a collaboration, it should be an exchange of benefits."

"Brother Qing, you can act according to the circumstances at that time. I will also secretly request the assistance of our lineage's Grand Elder."

We'll see when the time comes!

Li Qing laughed and said, "If your family needs my help, I'll take this opportunity to ask for an exorbitant amount."

"When will the Celestial Palace of the South Sea appear in the world?"

"The Grand Elder has not yet sent any accurate news, and it is unlikely to be too soon. It may take several years at the shortest, or even one or two decades at the longest."

As they were talking, Baili Luo noticed the change in Li Qing's expression and then smiled and said, "Brother Qing, are you curious about why I seem so anxious?"

“Since the South Sea Immortal Palace is still far from being established, why don’t we have a drink together after Brother Baili finishes his cultivation in the depths of the Yuanhuang Domain? There’s no rush,” Li Qing said with a smile.

"The reason for this is probably that Brother Qing is interested in another matter that is currently unfolding!"

"What is it for?"

"Star Palace!"

Li Qing's face showed a hint of surprise: "The Star Palace is facing a crisis?"

When he left, he had already formed an alliance with the Star Palace, using it as a foothold in the Xuan Nan Continent to keep track of the major changes in this world. Therefore, he also left behind several special blood seals, so that if there was anything important, the other party would definitely break the seals on their own initiative.

"The situation within the Ancient Mystic Realm is currently in great chaos, and the Star Palace is facing considerable external pressure."
