Time flies like a white horse passing a crevice, slowly flowing away. Suddenly, five years have passed. It has been five years since the extinction of the True Dragon Clan. Due to the birth of the True Dragon Emperor and the fluctuations in the forbidden zone, the entire Nine Heavens Realm has undergone earth-shattering changes. Among them, all the ancient imperial clans, except for the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox Clan, have been integrated into a new whole, forming a united alliance of various races. The ancient imperial clans are the leaders, and all decisions are made by them. However, there is no leader, and various factions are vying for power. On the human side, it is divided into two major forces: the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning and the Human Alliance. Among them, the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning, Pure Yang Holy Land, Great Qin Dynasty, and Taiqing Daoist Sect have formed an alliance, and the Great Qian Dynasty has joined outside of these four forces, but other forces have not been added. The Human Alliance, led by the Ye Family, has joined the other two major dynasties and two immortal forces to form a new alliance. This is the current situation in the Nine Heavens Realm, with the three major alliances dominating and almost dividing the entire realm. Of course, besides these three alliances, there are some immortal forces that have not joined.
The Ten Thousand Buddha Sect and the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox Clan do not participate in anything, minding their own business and not interfering! Due to the strength of both sides, everyone wants to invite others to join, except for the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning. However, because both sides have no objections, there has been no progress. The Ten Thousand Buddha Sect dominates a region in the Western Desert, with immense and unfathomable strength. The Human Alliance wants them to join but can only persuade them and will not force them to join, all because of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect's strength and uniqueness. But the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox Clan is different. They do not have the status of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect and are a newly emerging immortal force with slightly weaker foundations. Coupled with some means of the ancient imperial clan, they are facing internal and external troubles and are currently in an extremely embarrassing situation! Especially with the increasing calls from within to join the alliance of the ancient imperial clan, the entire Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox Clan is in a very difficult situation. Yao Ye is also constantly thinking about whether to join the other side or maintain their previous beliefs. Mind their own business! 13 Five years may seem short or long! For some powerful cultivators, it is a fleeting moment. Perhaps it is the arrival of a great trend, or perhaps it is a rare period of tranquility in five years. This has given various forces time to develop, and some geniuses have begun to emerge. Among them, Dugu Yun has gradually become famous in the Nine Heavens Realm, not because he is particularly outstanding, but because his Immortal Devouring Heaven Technique has been exposed, attracting the pursuit of various forces. Multiple attempts to kill Dugu Yun have not resulted in his death, but instead have made him stronger. This has also increased Dugu Yun's fame, and he is now known by countless people. Nanjiang. Near an ancient city, the entire city is grand and majestic, like a coiled dragon, filled with a terrifying aura. The black and red walls are covered in countless knife marks, like scars, bearing the traces of time and glory. This is a famous ancient city in Nanjiang, known for its divine stone veins. Because of the special nature of the divine stone, countless creatures come here to seek treasures or try their luck to become rich. At this moment.
At the entrance of the ancient city, a tall man in a black robe walks slowly into the crowd. The man has a cold and stern face, emitting a chilling aura that keeps everyone away. This also results in the area around the man being empty, standing out from the crowded surroundings. "It's a pity that I didn't kill Bai Yun this time!" "If I could devour her physical body, maybe I could step into the quasi-saint realm!" Dugu Yun walks towards the ancient city, speaking to himself in a solemn tone. After five years of cultivation and the help of the Immortal Devouring Technique, Dugu Yun has devoured countless origins, allowing him to completely enter the ranks of top geniuses and directly reach the Great Venerable Realm, just one step away from the quasi-saint realm. This level of cultivation is considered excellent among the geniuses. Although he is not in the first group. Perhaps because the great trend is approaching, the path of the entire Nine Heavens Realm is gradually manifesting, and the spiritual energy is abundant. This has led to successive breakthroughs by many geniuses. Now, the geniuses of the first group have already stepped into the quasi-saint realm, while those of the second group have reached the Heavenly Venerable Realm. Dugu Yun is among the top of the second group, with only a small gap from the first group. "Bai Yun's talent is second only to Bai Chen in the White Tiger Clan. The White Tiger Clan will definitely grant her the protection of a guardian!" "Moreover, you are no longer unknown, your reputation has spread far and wide, which forces wouldn't be on guard against you?" The old voice sounds somewhat helpless. Why did I have to find Bai Chang? There are so many top geniuses in the ancient imperial clan. These geniuses are bound to have the protection of guardians, and it won't be easy to eliminate them. Unless there are strong individuals of the same level to drag them down, there is a chance to eliminate them. And Dugu Yun did not receive the same treatment, without the protection of a powerful guardian, naturally unable to kill the opponent. If they hadn't run fast, perhaps they would have died there. "Damn Jin Changhe!" Just thinking about his secret being exposed, all because of Jin Changhe. Dugu Yun was extremely angry in his heart. The reason why his Immortal Swallowing Heaven Technique was exposed was all because of Jin Changhe. If it weren't for Jin Changhe, his secret wouldn't have been exposed, and naturally no one would have known. This made Dugu Yun extremely frustrated. Originally, he was thinking of making a fortune quietly. Slowly improving his cultivation step by step, and finally making a stunning breakthrough. Who knew that his plan would be thwarted halfway.
"Next time, we must be more cautious. If we want to kill these immortal forces' geniuses, we must find a good place. Otherwise, once we alarm the guardians of these geniuses, we will be in trouble sooner or later!" He said with a weak and feeble voice. Although this disciple of his had made some progress during this time, he was unable to control himself. He couldn't temporarily achieve complete forbearance, especially when encountering those immortal geniuses, he couldn't control himself. He never considered the relationship with the guardians, which led to several encounters with the guardians, resulting in his own complete annihilation. If it weren't for the elder's recovery of some strength and the effects of some secret techniques, they would have been wiped out by those guardians long ago. "Master, this disciple naturally knows!" Dugu Yun smiled and said, "But we don't need to consider these things anymore in the future. As long as we obtain the Heavenly Soul Flower inside, with your complete recovery and your cultivation, those guardians will be no match for you!" "Those guardians are just Saint Kings, how can they be your match?" "They can be easily crushed, right?" Hearing this, the elder also felt somewhat happy. They came here this time for the Heavenly Soul Flower as well. In this place, not long ago, a world emerged, and there was the figure of the blooming Heavenly Soul Flower inside. The Heavenly Soul Flower is an extremely rare heavenly treasure. It can nourish the divine soul and restore injuries to the divine soul. As long as a trace of the soul remains, it can be completely restored in a short period of time. To some extent, the Heavenly Soul Flower is almost equivalent to a resurrection coin. As long as they have the Heavenly Soul Flower and leave behind a trace of their soul, even if their physical body is completely annihilated, they can completely recover with the help of the flower. "Be careful!" "The Heavenly Soul Flower is not to be taken lightly!" "There are many people competing for it this time!" While happy, the elder's mind was not clouded by joy. He knew the value of the Heavenly Soul Flower too well. Once it appears, it will inevitably attract countless people to fight for it. Compared to the Heavenly Soul Flower, there are many precious things inside this secret realm. These things are enough to make various forces covetous. This also means that the competition will be extremely fierce, and if they are not careful in their actions... They could easily end up in trouble. "No matter what difficulties there are, this disciple will help you snatch the Heavenly Soul Flower!"
"To fulfill Master's long-cherished wish!" Dugu Yun's expression was solemn, his eyes firm. The Heavenly Soul Flower was too important to them. Both for the elder and for himself. If the elder can fully recover, then he will have a powerful Saint King as a guardian under his command. In that case, when encountering those so-called geniuses, he can kill them and devour them. He can even use the elder to rapidly improve his own cultivation. In the past, he failed to kill the geniuses several times because of the guardians. Causing him to be unsuccessful. Just thinking about this, Dugu Yun immediately became excited. I wish I could enter the so-called small world right now and seize the Heavenly Soul Flower! "Heavenly Soul Flower!" "I hope I can obtain it!" The old man said to himself in his heart. He has been waiting for this Heavenly Soul Flower for too long. As long as he can obtain it, he will be able to recover immediately. "When I recover, it will also be time to leave!" "But should I eliminate Dugu Yun?" "If I leave and he tells Dugu Xiong, there's a chance that Dugu Xiong will take action against me to save face for him." The old man said to himself in his heart. As long as he recovers, he will definitely leave Dugu Yun. There is no other reason, it is just too dangerous to stay by Dugu Yun's side. The whole world is his enemy. If people find out about his relationship with Dugu Yun, he will definitely face severe consequences. Although the Great Sage is a top combat force in the Nine Heavens Realm, there are many existences that can kill ministers. Mainly, he feels that there is not much hope in staying by Dugu Yun's side. Although there is the Immortal Swallowing Heaven Technique, he doesn't think the other party will survive in the end. Especially after the Immortal Swallowing Heaven Technique is exposed, he will inevitably be hunted down by countless people. Being hunted down by various forces is inevitable. Escaping alive once or twice doesn't mean he can do it forever.
In his opinion, staying by Dugu Yun's side will eventually lead to death. Since that's the case, why not leave early? But if he leaves quietly, according to Dugu Yun's character, he will definitely hold a grudge against him. If he tells Dugu Xiong, with their father-son relationship, there's a chance that Dugu Xiong will really take action. That would also be a death sentence. Either way, it's death. The only way to survive is to kill Dugu Yun and frame him for other forces. In that case, he can avoid any danger. "I have to deal with Dugu Yun!" "That's the only way I can find a way out!" The old man said to himself in his heart. Those who can reach this realm are extremely determined beings. Especially for a scattered cultivator like the old man, to reach this realm and have a heart so cold that it surpasses ordinary people's imagination. As long as it is detrimental to oneself, it doesn't matter if you are my disciple or not. Inside the city. In a magnificent and grand building. "Son, are you really not planning to enter it?" Yan Ruyu blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at Jiang Chen with a hint of doubt. Originally, they thought Jiang Chen also planned to enter that secret realm to seek opportunities. But now they realized that Jiang Chen had no intention of going in. If he's not going, why did he come? Yan Ruyu was a bit puzzled. This is not the style of the Son! "Jiang Chen, are you really not planning to go in?" Jing Muyu said with a slight disappointment. After five years of growth, Jing Muyu is now eighteen years old. There have been earth-shattering changes in all aspects. Whether it's cultivation or physique. Hmm! Especially the two peaks on her chest, even Yan Ruyu pales in comparison.
Especially when paired with her cold temperament, there is a sense of contrast! Perhaps it was Mu Jianxue's guidance, and Jing Muyu's style is becoming more and more like Mu Jianxue's. Like the cold snow lotus on the snowy mountain, unattainable! "I'm not going!" "This is your young people's territory. What am I, an old guy, doing here?" "If I go in, wouldn't it deprive you of the opportunity to gain experience?" Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow. This time he came not for the secret realm of 733, but for the Heavenly Fox Emperor. In the original work, after the emergence of the secret realm, the Heavenly Fox Emperor wandered around and was bullied by others. As the male lead, Dugu Yun couldn't bear to see it and saved the Heavenly Fox Emperor. From then on, they developed a deep bond. At the same time, the Heavenly Fox Emperor became Dugu Yun's biggest reliance and support. Naturally, Jiang Chen couldn't let the Heavenly Fox Emperor return to the plot and become Dugu Yun's support! However, Jiang Chen was considering whether to take action himself. If he didn't take action, he would definitely receive rewards for pretending to be weak, and the rewards should be good. But in that case, he would lose the opportunity to develop a relationship with the Heavenly Fox Emperor! But if he took action, he would definitely replace Dugu Yun in the plot, but he would lose the rewards for pretending to be weak. The choice between the two made Jiang Chen hesitate! As for that so-called secret realm, Jiang Chen didn't care about it at all because the most precious thing inside was the Heavenly Soul Flower. Although it was valuable, it was nothing to the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning. And the emergence of this secret realm didn't have any rare treasures, but it provided a stage for the male lead, Dugu Yun, to show off. Knowing this, Jiang Chen naturally didn't interfere. And he couldn't go outside either, not because he was afraid of the strong outside, but because his cultivation had already surpassed the so-called geniuses. Continuing to participate would be inappropriate, after all, it would be a sweep without any fun. On the other hand, Jing Muyu and Yan Ruyu were very suitable. Both of them were top geniuses, but they lacked some experience in displaying their skills. This could be an opportunity for them to gain experience. "I heard that there are many geniuses coming this time!" "Even Ye Family's Divine Son is here!" "Don't you feel interested, Holy Son?" Yan Ruyu said softly.
Ye Family's Divine Son has always been very low-key. People know that this guy is extremely talented and has been hailed as one of the three geniuses of the human race from the beginning. But how extraordinary he is, is not known to many. It was precisely because of the rumors that Ye Family's Divine Son would be born here that many geniuses rushed over. One reason was to find out the depth of Ye Family's Divine Son and see if he was as powerful as the rumors. Especially for the geniuses of the Ancient Royal Clan... Jiang Chen couldn't beat them, but Ye Family's Divine Son should be able to defeat them, right? As long as Ye Family's Divine Son could be defeated, it would also boost the morale of the Ancient Royal Clan. As for Jiang Chen? He was already beyond the existence of all geniuses. From the moment he annihilated the Golden Crow Clan, slapped the Saint King to death, Jiang Chen became a taboo for countless people, not included among the geniuses. Even the likes of Huang Qingtian had already excluded Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen had already been classified as one of the older generation of strong. Even though Jiang Chen was only in his twenties! "Ye Family's Divine Son?" "You mean Ye Qing?" "That guy is a waste. He might not even be your match!" Jiang Chen said indifferently!
