Traveling Between Two Worlds: From Bread for Maids to Fantasy Overlord

The oppressive aura of a late-stage Golden Core cultivator swept over the entire camp like a mountain collapsing. The three envoys' expressions changed drastically; they trembled, cold sweat pouring down their faces, and their previous arrogance vanished. The Danxia Sect envoy's legs went weak, almost collapsing to the ground, but he still forced himself to remain calm, gritting his teeth as he said, "Huang Yiming, you...you dare to attack us? We are envoys from three high-level sects. If you harm us, the three sects will surely join forces to raze your camp to the ground!"

"Raze my camp to the ground?" Huang Yiming sneered, his tone icy. "You three sects? The Heavenly Evolution Sect is even stronger than the three of you combined, yet I still destroyed it. You come here today to provoke me, do you really think I, Huang Yiming, am easy to bully?"

Qin Yuling, longsword in hand, walked to Huang Yiming's side, releasing the oppressive aura of a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. Her eyes were icy as she stared at the three envoys: "My sect leader is merciful, showing you face, yet you are ungrateful. If you dare say another word, don't blame us for being impolite!" Zi Yao also stepped forward, her demonic sect aura chilling, a cold smile playing on her lips: "Dare to mock my sect leader? Today, you'll taste the power of demonic sect secret techniques!"

Lingxi stood to the side, her body surrounded by the power of spiritual plants, her eyes calm yet menacing: "You all possess a faint aura of the demon race. Confess honestly, are you secretly colluding with the demons?" The three envoys' expressions changed drastically, their eyes flickering, clearly their secret had been exposed, yet they still refused to admit it: "You...you're talking nonsense! How could we possibly collude with the demons? Don't make false accusations!"

A ruthless glint flashed in Huang Yiming's eyes. Without another word, he activated the system's power, releasing the demonic blood essence he had absorbed earlier. A dense demonic aura enveloped the three envoys. "If you don't confess honestly, I will force out the demonic energy within you, letting everyone know the crimes of your three sects colluding with the demons!"

The Danxia Sect envoy's face turned deathly pale, and he could no longer feign weakness—he knew Huang Yiming was powerful, and if he were to truly force out the demonic aura within him, not only would he be doomed, but the Danxia Sect would also be scorned by the entire Zhongxuan Realm. He trembled as he said, "I...we did not collude with the demons, it's just...it was just a chance encounter with demonic cultivators that tainted us with their aura."

"A chance encounter?" Huang Yiming sneered, clearly not believing his nonsense. "I think it's because your three major sects are secretly colluding with the demon race, trying to use their power to seize the system and fragments, and rule the Central Xuan Realm, right? Ling Xuan is your example; do you want to repeat his mistakes?"

Just then, a disciple accompanying the Danxia Sect envoy suddenly sprang to his feet, brandishing a dagger and charging towards Huang Yiming, shouting, "Huang Yiming, you lowly mortal, how dare you humiliate my Danxia Sect! I'll fight you to the death!" This disciple was a personal disciple of the Danxia Sect's leader, with a cultivation level reaching the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. He was extremely arrogant and couldn't help but attack when he saw Huang Yiming humiliating the Danxia Sect.

Huang Yiming's eyes turned cold. Without even getting up, he simply raised his hand and waved a burst of spiritual energy, striking the accompanying disciple. The disciple screamed in agony, flying backward and crashing heavily to the ground, lifeless, completely killed. This strike was clean and swift, without the slightest hesitation, instantly stunning the three envoys.

"You...you actually dared to kill a disciple of my Danxia Sect!" The Danxia Sect envoy was furious, yet helpless. Huang Yiming's strength far exceeded his expectations; he was no match for him. Huang Yiming's tone was icy: "He attacked first, courting death. Today, I give you a warning—you three sects have three days to send representatives to submit and hand over all evidence of your collusion with the Demon Clan. Otherwise, I will lead my army to raze you three sects to the ground, making you follow in the footsteps of the Tianyan Sect!"

The envoys from the Azure Water Sect and the Burning Heaven Sect were already terrified. They had originally thought Huang Yiming was just a lucky mortal cultivator, but they never expected his strength to be so formidable, capable of killing even a direct disciple of the Danxia Sect in one move. The two hurriedly nodded and respectfully said, "Yes, we will definitely report the truth to our sect leader and will come to submit and hand over the evidence within three days."

Seeing this, the Danxia Sect envoy could only nod reluctantly: "Alright, I... I will report to the sect leader and give you an answer within three days." He had already made up his mind: upon returning, he would immediately report to the Danxia Sect leader, unite with the Biyue Sect and the Fentian Sect to form a new coalition to fight against Huang Yiming and reclaim the power that belonged to them.

"Get lost!" Huang Yiming waved his hand impatiently. The three envoys, as if granted a pardon, hurriedly turned and fled the camp in a sorry state, not even daring to take the corpse of the Danxia Sect's direct disciple with them. Watching their retreating figures, Zi Yao said disdainfully, "These three cowards dare to provoke us; they are truly overestimating themselves."

Su Qingyue shook her head: "They definitely won't submit willingly. They'll surely unite and plot against us when they get back. We must prepare in advance to prevent a surprise attack." Huang Yiming nodded, his tone grave: "That's right, Qingyue is right. Yuling, Ziyao, you lead the Two Realms Legion to strengthen the defenses, and at the same time send out scouts to closely monitor the movements of the three major sects."

"Lingxi, continue to sense the surrounding spiritual energy and keep an eye on the movements of the demons. Report immediately if you spot any demon cultivators. Yangxiu, take care of the logistics, inventory the supplies, and prepare heavy weapons and healing pills to deal with any emergencies." Huang Yiming assigned the tasks methodically, and the five women nodded and immediately got to work.

Afterwards, Huang Yiming returned to the main tent of the camp and sat down at his desk to ponder. He knew that the threat posed by the three major sects was far more troublesome than that of the Tianyan Sect—the three major sects were powerful, and if they were to unite to form a new allied army, coupled with the possibility of the demons secretly colluding with them, the Two Realms Legion would face a huge crisis.

At the same time, he was also pondering the origin of the system: the runes in the forbidden area of ​​the Tianyan Sect were exactly the same as the patterns on the system interface, which meant that the origin of the system must be related to the Tianyan Sect, the invasion of the demon race a thousand years ago, and might even involve the ancient spirit race and the dragon race. The ancient spiritual veins and ancient time travel fragments that Lingxi sensed in the previous volume were all closely related to these secrets.

Just then, a system notification sounded: "The system detected that the host has intimidated the envoys of the three major sects, completing the 'Establishing Prestige in the Central Mystic Realm' mission. Reward: ten high-grade spiritual herbs. System analysis function upgraded—can analyze ancient runes and mysterious items." Huang Yiming was overjoyed. The upgraded system analysis function was perfect for analyzing the runes in the forbidden area of ​​the Heavenly Evolution Sect, revealing the secrets of the system's origin.

He immediately retrieved the rune fragments he had collected from the forbidden area and activated the system's analysis function. A moment later, the system transmitted the analysis results: "The rune fragments originate from a sealing formation jointly inscribed by the Spirit Race and the Dragon Race a thousand years ago, used to seal high-level demon cultivators. The system core shares the same origin as this formation, having been jointly created by the Spirit Race and the Dragon Race to protect the Azure Netherworld and resist the invasion of the demon race."

Huang Yiming was shocked. All the foreshadowing in the first eight volumes finally began to make sense—the system did not appear by chance, but was created a thousand years ago by the Spirit Race and the Dragon Race to protect the Azure Netherworld and resist the invasion of the Demon Race. The Heavenly Evolution Sect Ancestor colluded with the Demon Race to seize the system in order to break the seal, release the high-level Demon Race cultivators, and then rule the Azure Netherworld.

Just as Huang Yiming was deep in thought, a scout rushed over, knelt on one knee, and said with a solemn expression, "Sect Master, something terrible has happened! The Danxia Sect's envoy reported back to you immediately, and the Danxia Sect Master is furious. He has joined forces with the Biyue Sect and the Fentian Sect to secretly form a new allied army and is preparing to launch a surprise attack on our camp in three days!"

Huang Yiming's eyes turned cold, and a sneer curled at the corner of his mouth: "Since they are courting death, then don't blame me for being impolite. Issue the order: the entire army is on high alert and ready for battle—in three days, I will let them know what happens when they oppose me, Huang Yiming!" At the same time, he also vaguely sensed that there seemed to be a high-level demon clan secretly manipulating the three major sects, and this crisis was far more complicated than he had imagined.
