Enduring humiliation for three years, seizing the elixir, the treasure, and the holy maiden.

Not far away, a city was suspended in mid-air.

Below are the remains of a colossal beast, as large as a giant mountain.

"This city is called Xuanzhu City."

"I arrived here first when I came here."

"It is said that the city was built on the remains of a spirit beast that perished during the ancient era of cultivators."

"This city is considered part of the Tiannan Alliance's territory."

"However, although the Tiannan Alliance is powerful, it is far inferior to Luoyan City and Xingkong Daoji Sect."

"Further south lies the Boundless Sea, where I was before I came to Luoyan City."

"The city of Tianshu is located at sea."

"However, this Boundless Sea is probably the fourth major power on the Xuanhuang Continent, besides the Starry Sky Dao Sect, Luoyan City, and Xingluo."

"It's just that it's not a human force."

"They are from the ancient demon race. Those transformed demons all have cultivation levels equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage."

"I've heard that its demon king is comparable to a cultivator at the Void Refinement Realm."

Wang Mang was actually able to offer some insight at this moment.

"good!"

"However, although the Starry Sky Dao Sect has been suppressing the demon race for so many years."

"Using the Boundless Sea as the boundary, we established rules with the demon race that were not contradictory to each other."

"But I can tell you guys something."

"Never, under any circumstances, have any connection with the demon race."

At this moment, Wang Zhanhai frowned.

These words suggest that the demons of the outer seas are quite wary of them.

This actually piqued Su Chen's interest.

Once I achieve the Nascent Soul stage, I'd like to visit the Heavenly Pivot Star City.

However, the journey will take about three more days to reach Qingzhou.

I wonder how Wang Yuyan and Lin Wanwan are doing now.

Thinking of this, the light beneath their feet increased even more.

...

The Underground Palace of the Obscure Moon Demon Sect.

At this moment, several massive waves of scorching magma from the Earth's core were relentlessly crashing against the surrounding rock walls.

A flash of light appeared in the council hall.

I've lost count of how many times I've used this Xuan Ding.

At this moment, the Grand Elder of the Obscure Moon Demon Sect looked at the mess in the main hall.

He was even more furious.

I simply cannot control this ancient treasure.

Giving up like this feels extremely unfair.

After all, this thing is an ancient treasure.

But March has arrived, and my patience has been completely worn away.

If they still can't hand it over, then it's enough to prove that Qingzhou can't find this technique.

Then the Luoyun Sect and Taixuan Sect in Qingzhou would have no reason to exist.

As for Jiang Yun, that kid is now worthless.

"Wang Zhenchuan, you will now travel to Qingzhou!"

"Let's urge Jiang Yun on!"

"How could you be so incompetent!"

At that moment, the Grand Elder said something to Wang Mei, who was standing to the side.

Wang Mei simply nodded.

In fact, Wang Mei had wanted to go there for the past few months.

It's not because of anything else.

It's all because of his beloved junior brother, Jiang Yun.

My handsome junior brother hasn't been back for a while.

She already knew that her junior brother Jiang Yun harbored some obsession and hatred towards Qingzhou.

It would be normal to take this opportunity to suppress Luoyun Sect and Taixuan Sect.

However, the news brought back by the disciples of the sect several times made him somewhat alarmed.

His own handsome junior brother was actually imprisoning and torturing a female cultivator.

Furthermore, he repeatedly humiliated Su Chen's Daoist partner.

Firstly, he participated in the dual cultivation ceremony of the granddaughter of the Refining Void Old Monster of Luoyan City.

Only then did they realize that Su Chen was someone the entire Obsidian Demon Sect couldn't afford to offend.

If this continues, the entire Obsidian Demon Sect might be destroyed because of Junior Brother's impulsiveness.

However, due to the oath he had made, he was unable to report to the sect.

Secondly, there was his junior brother. Even if there was some hatred between them, it didn't warrant such an extreme reaction.

The words Su Chen said to me that day kept replaying in my mind.

Such shamelessness and despicable behavior is something Jiang Yun could never do.

She doesn't believe it!

She had to verify it herself.

If it's true, we must stop Jiang Yun; perhaps the Obscure Moon Demon Sect still has a glimmer of hope.

With that thought in mind, Wang Mei hurriedly left.

Meanwhile, at this moment, the Tai Xuan Sect of Qingzhou...

The three-month deadline is almost over, with only a few days left.

The entire sect was deathly still.

The mountain gate was covered with withered leaves, and no one was tending to it.

The disciples also completely let loose.

Knowing that their sect was in trouble, none of them cared about anything related to the sect.

She spends all her time trying to please her former senior brother, Jiang.

I only hope to join the Obscure Moon Demon Sect in the future.

Huang Tianhua and Lei Sha were also powerless to help.

At this moment, in a side hall...

On Huang Tianhua's table was a jade slip.

These past few days, I've run out of ideas.

This is the only option we have.

They secretly sought out the most skilled forger in Qingzhou.

They deliberately forged an obscure and difficult-to-understand cultivation method.

Find another piece of spiritual jade that is nearly three thousand years old, and carve it into a cultivation technique that does not exist at all.

Repeatedly age it.

Thus, a fake Xuan Ding activation technique was created.

But this kind of thing can be kept secret for a while, but it's hard to keep it secret forever.

If the Obsidian Demon Sect discovers that it's fake, both sects will likely suffer even more grievous deaths.

Now we can only wait and see.

If all else fails, Huang Tianhua and Lei Sha have agreed to abandon their sects and take their respective sect's legacy with them.

They fled to another continent.

Naturally, they could not escape to the Xuanhuang Continent.

Speaking of which, outside of these three continents, namely the Xuanhuang Continent and the Qingzhou Continent.

There is also the Black Mountain continent.

To put it bluntly, this continent is a barbaric land without any laws.

Black markets abound, and wicked monks roam the continents.

Once you enter the Black Mountain Continent, you'll likely never reach the Nascent Soul stage again, and there's no chance of ever returning.

If they weren't forced by circumstances, neither of them would have wanted to take the risk.

"Are you done yet?!"

As soon as Lei Sha entered the room, he eagerly picked up the jade slip.

"It's done!"

"You're really something, Fellow Daoist Huang!"

Lei Sha laughed heartily.

It seems that Reysser has already accepted all of this.

"But..."

"well..."

Huang Tianhua let out a long sigh.

"Why are you sighing!"

"There's no need to hesitate any longer!"

"The Great Dao is ruthless; since ancient times, various sects have risen and fallen."

"Take the Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion for example, isn't it a foundation built up over thousands of years?"

"Such an absurd reason as to intimidate my two sects."

"They don't even know how their own sect was wiped out."

"Higher-ranking cultivators regard lower-ranking cultivators as ants."

"If you and I can truly reach the Nascent Soul realm in the future..."

"By then, when we return to Qingzhou, rebuilding a sect will be a matter of just over a hundred years."

Huang Tianhua had to admit it after hearing this.

What Lei Sha said is the eternal truth of the cultivation world.

But when it comes to yourself, taking that step is incredibly difficult.

It is indeed shameful to abandon these disciples and run away.

"Have you found a way to get to the Black Mountain continent?"

Huang Tianhua asked a question.

"Don't worry, Elder Han Ye has found a solution."

"He will come with both of us!"

At that moment, Lei Sha said something.

However, Huang Tianhua didn't really have a good impression of Han Ye.

Especially after hearing about this person's previous battle of wits with Su Chen.

As an elder and senior, this was indeed a lack of decorum.
