Nuwa, the goddess of immortality, said that cultivating immortality does not require spiritual energ

When Li Jiuyuan told him that the undercover agent in the Heavenly Realm had discovered a Chaos Beast with intelligence, Qin Le began to speculate whether this undercover agent might be Ye Hongli.

In retrospect, his guess was correct.

At this moment, Ye Hongli was still surrounded by a gray-black chaotic aura, making her look no different from those traitors of the Three Realms.

However, Qin Le, who had comprehended the Great Dao, could clearly see through the essence—that chaotic energy was actually composed of pure immortal power, but she had used an extremely clever and strange method to perfectly simulate the aura of chaos.

"It seems you know me quite well." Ye Hongli couldn't help but smile when she heard Qin Le's words.

Qin Le's words meant that he was not like others who were unaware of the truth and blindly believed that she had betrayed the Three Realms, but had been suspicious from the beginning.

It's important to understand that even her mother, who was both doting and strict with her, believed her story of falling into depravity.

Before Qin Le could respond, the dozen or so relentlessly pursuing Chaos Beasts launched their attack.

More than ten beams of light and blades, formed from pure chaotic power, swept in with an aura of destruction.

However, just as these attacks were about to touch the two, they seemed to pass through an invisible, misaligned barrier, piercing straight through their bodies without leaving any trace.

"Tsk, this ability... it's really shameless." Ye Hongli couldn't help but sigh.

Unbeknownst to her, she was now enveloped by an invisible yet stable spacetime barrier—clearly Qin Le's doing.

The near-unsolvable defense granted by the Great Dao of Time and Space is indeed somewhat frustrating.

Seeing that the attack was ineffective, the lead wolf-like Chaos Beast decisively issued a low command: "Retreat! The target is Qin Le, we can't handle him."

As soon as he finished speaking, the dozen or so Chaos Beasts immediately scattered in unison, fleeing rapidly in different directions.

"Make your move," Qin Le ordered calmly. "Live."

"no problem."

Before Ye Hongli finished speaking, her figure had already disappeared from the spot. The next moment, she appeared beside a snake-shaped Chaos Beast that was trying to escape, and her fierce attack tightly entangled it, preventing it from breaking free.

With a thought, Qin Le instantly conjured the deadly, jet-black weapon in his hand.

He used spatial teleportation and arrived at the scene of Ye Hongli's battle with the serpentine chaos beast in the blink of an eye.

He didn't chase after the other fleeing Chaos Beasts because he knew very well that it would be too difficult for him to capture a powerful Golden Immortal-level Chaos Beast alive on his own.

However, the success rate would be much higher if they cooperated with Ye Hongli.

As for the other Chaos Beasts, seeing their companions left behind, they didn't hesitate or intend to turn back to rescue them; instead, they fled even faster.

They clearly possess detailed information about Qin Le: the three great paths of time and space, creation, and life, and the inner flame and imperial fire within him.

It might be difficult for Qin Le to capture them alive on his own, but if he stayed behind to fight them head-on, it probably wouldn't be difficult for him to kill them.

The terrifying power of the primordial fire and the imperial fire was far beyond their ability to withstand.

When Qin Le arrived near the battle zone, he did not immediately engage in hand-to-hand combat. Instead, he unleashed the overwhelming ferocity contained within the weapon in his hand.

A palpable aura of malevolence spread out like a living thing, instantly entangling the serpentine Chaos Beast that was fiercely fighting Ye Hongli.

The moment the murderous aura enveloped it, the serpentine chaotic beast, which had been tumbling and swirling in the air with ferocious power, suddenly froze, as if completely bound by invisible shackles. Its massive body plummeted straight down from the sky and crashed to the ground with a loud thud, unable to move.

Qin Le glanced at the trembling weapon in his hand, which seemed to yearn for slaughter, and muttered speechlessly, "Thank goodness I didn't just stab it directly..."

He chose to trap the enemy with his fierce aura instead of attacking directly with his spear, because he was worried that the Chaos Beast would not be able to withstand the direct damage from the weapon's true form.

In retrospect, his caution was justified.

If I had thrust the gun at it just now, this rare live specimen would probably have died instantly.

The fact that this weapon possesses unparalleled killing power across the three realms is no exaggeration.

Ye Hongli glanced at the genuine, ferocious weapon in Qin Le's hand, which exuded a primitive and violent aura, and then looked at the imitation weapon in her own hand, which was made from materials of a ferocious creature. She felt a little uneasy.

"How come all the good stuff ends up in your hands?" she couldn't help but mutter, her tone filled with undisguised jealousy.

Upon hearing this, Qin Le laughed instead, and made a gesture as if to hand over the weapon: "Here you go, do you dare take it?"

Upon seeing this, Ye Hongli quickly took a few steps back, waving her hands repeatedly, "Put it away quickly! I want to live a few more years!"

The weapon is powerful, but she can't use it; it's simply impossible for her to use it.

She herself was on the path of demonic cultivation, and the hidden danger of inner demons always existed.

If one were to touch this weapon forged from the inner demons of a saint, even the slightest contact could immediately trigger a full-blown eruption of one's inner demons, which would be amplified infinitely by the weapon.

She was just jealous that Qin Le always got access to top-tier resources, but she really didn't dare to even entertain the thought of the murder weapon itself.

Although the replica in her hand was also menacing, it lacked the terrifying effect of the original, which directly stirred and nourished inner demons.

Qin Le smiled and stopped teasing her. With a thought, he retrieved the weapon into his dantian to nurture it.

At this moment, Ye Hongli looked at the serpentine chaotic beast on the ground, which was being suppressed by the fierce aura and couldn't even utter a hiss, and asked:

"What are you planning to do after going through all that trouble to capture it alive?"

"Take them back to the Heavenly Court for them to study," Qin Le said nonchalantly. "Maybe they can find out why they suddenly developed intelligence."

As he spoke, Qin Le landed next to the snake-shaped Chaos Beast, which was over thirty meters long.

But then he had a headache—this thing obviously couldn't fit into a storage ring, let alone be stored in his Qi Sea like a weapon. He couldn't just drag this big thing around, could he?

After thinking for a moment, he called out in his heart, "Mother Nuwa, please help me."

Nuwa did not respond, but a concise incantation on how to create a personal space instantly appeared in Qin Le's mind.

This is a common skill among cultivators of the Celestial Immortal level and above in the Celestial Realm, but Qin Le has never had time to study.

Qin Le glanced at the incantation and understood it immediately.

He reached out and gently swiped his hand across the space beside him—a stable spatial rift immediately appeared, inside which was a stable small dimensional space.

With a thought, he threw the imprisoned serpentine chaotic beast into it, and then the rift quietly closed.

Done and that's it.

Qin Le looked up at Ye Hongli, who was still suspended in mid-air, and casually waved his hand:

"I'm gone."

After saying that, he summoned the cloud-shaped flying magic weapon, sat on it, and transformed into a white light, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Ye Hongli silently gazed in the direction Qin Le had disappeared, without giving chase. She knew it would be pointless.

This unexpected encounter made her goal even clearer and more resolute.

At that moment, the palm-sized spirit of the Dharma Source Stele quietly appeared on her shoulder.

"Little girl," the spirit of the Dharma Source Stele said, with a hint of all-knowing insight, "he... is the source of your 'obsession'?"

"right."

Ye Hongli did not deny it, but simply nodded, even with a frank smile on her face.

The spirit of the Law Source Stele remained silent for a moment, seemingly considering its words, before finally speaking in an unusually serious tone:

"I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible. You... will never succeed."
