In the Burial God Wasteland, a terrifying aura spread forth.
It disturbed the fierce beasts throughout the entire wilderness.
Birds and beasts ran wild, even bursting out of the Burial God Wasteland and into the territories of human cultivators, causing a great disaster.
At the sa ti, an eerie aura from within the wilderness increased by tens of tis, spreading to the outside world and shaking the Eastern Wilderness.
"There’s an anomaly in the Burial God Wasteland!"
"What has happened?"
"Has so terrifying entity been born?"
For a mont, the world was greatly shocked.
anwhile.
Within the Wood Spirit Dynasty.
In front of the Imperial Palace was the dynasty’s Sacrificial Spirit—Grape Old Vine.
Since receiving the Spiritual Soil that prolonged its life, Old Vine had been evolving.
Now Old Vine couldn’t even be described as "old" anymore, for it had grown too lush, its vines even bearing bunches of small grapes.
Old Vine’s realm had even broken through to the Refining God Realm!
This brought great joy to Mu Wanqing and others.
But today, Old Vine suddenly shook its vines wildly, and its ethereal shadows were in disarray!
Mu Wanqing and the others hurried over.
"Sacrificial Spirit, what’s happened?"
Mu Rantian asked nervously.
"There is sothing formidable deep in the Great Wilderness... about to erge."
"Go quickly... find the Lord of the Desolate Heavens!"
"Only he can suppress it!"
Panic filled Old Vine’s speech.
As a seed brought from the depths of the Great Wilderness, it retained so special mories of that place!
Hearing this, Mu Wanqing was shocked. The dynasty had already received news of the beast tide from the wilderness, but she never thought the situation was so dire!
"I’ll go at once!"
She declared!
...
In the Great Ruins Realm, at a place shrouded in mist where commoners seldom tread, atop a mountain lay an Immortal Palace.
"Fortunately, that old ghost didn’t pursue us that day, otherwise we might have been done for."
Lv Yang, the Wandering God, said with a pale face and in a relieved tone.
"That old ghost is too terrifying; we’re no match for him at all. Now, with such a ghostly being born... no one can rival it."
Xuan Yin, the Traveling God, looked extrely grim, his spirit weakened greatly, half of his divine soul having been absorbed by that old ghost.
"The True God has yet to respond to this matter, alas..."
Since their escape here, they had imdiately reported the situation to the True God they followed.
"Report!"
At that mont, a servant entered and said:
"My lords, we’ve just received news that there has been an incident in the Eastern Wilderness."
"From within the Burial God Wasteland, an indescribable existence has been born, its aura vast as the heavens!"
Both Traveling Gods’ expressions changed.
The Burial God Wasteland...
That was a place where even Divine Spirits had fallen.
"Let’s go, report this to the True God!"
Lv Yang, the Traveling God, imdiately said.
They entered a Secret Hall.
This Secret Hall enshrined a statue of a deity that looked majestic and awe-inspiring, exuding an aura of the divine, sothing not even a Traveling God’s statue could compare with!
This was a statue of Xun Yuan, the True God.
They initiated the "Summoning God Ceremony"!
Unlike Traveling Gods, whose realm is not enough, and whose law bodies, despite containing a part of the Traveling God’s power, are still just made from the power of incense, moreover, the main body can’t manifest through the law body.
But a True God is one who can truly manifest, who can obtain a response from the True God through a special Summoning God Ceremony.
Above the statue, a flicker of light twinkled.
A faint silhouetted figure suddenly appeared.
"Why do you summon ?"
The silhouette spoke.
"Xun Yuan, the True God, the Burial God Wasteland that you instructed us to keep watch over has had an incident!"
"Sothing indescribable has been born within it!"
After hearing this, the True God seed to ponder for a long while.
"...Hehe, this is quite interesting. First, a person resembling the Dark Sky Ghost Lord appeared, and now sothing is being born in the Burial God Wasteland..."
"You need not get involved in this matter; continue to monitor it!"
After speaking, Xun Yuan, the True God, imdiately disappeared.
Xuan Yin and Lv Yang looked at each other, at a loss!
At that mont.
In the boundless cosmic void.
The Star Realm shone like fireflies in the cold universe, emitting faint lights.
Like grains of sand scattered on a black canvas, the Star Realm was innurable, and occasionally many star-realm clusters would co together to form a giant Star Wheel, where the intermingling of these wheels would create huge galaxies, and within those galaxies, like a bright lamp, the Constant Realm illuminated a corner of the universe.
At that mont.
In the cosmic void, on a drifting expanse of boundary earth.
Several beings sat cross-legged, absorbing the starlight of Myriad Realms, looking down indifferently from high above at the many star-realm beneath them.
Suddenly, one of them opened his eyes and said:
"There has been a change in the Great Ruins Realm."
Imdiately, several of them looked at him.
"A few days ago, an old ghost appeared, capable of easily annihilating Traveling Gods, likely the underling of the Dark Sky Ghost Lord."
"And now, sothing has been born in that part of the Great Ruins Realm which is suspected to be forbidden territory."
"I suspect it is related to the Dark Sky Ghost Lord."
The person speaking was indeed Xun Yuan, the True God.
"The Dark Sky Ghost Lord escaped from the cage, and after nearly a hundred years, we finally found him..."
Another person spoke up, scoffing:
"Shouldn’t we make a move and capture this rascal?"
However, the leader suddenly said in a deep voice:
"Foolish!"
"Our mission is to find it! This ghost is of great use to the Godmaster... We must not startle the snake by beating the grass!"
"Keep a close watch on this realm, I will report the news upwards."
...
At this mont.
In Central Province, Yun Family Grand Hall.
"Father, today is Yun Xi’s death anniversary, would you like to visit her grave?"
The one who spoke was none other than the patriarch of the supre family in Central Province—the head of the Yun Family, Yun Yinchen.
And the old man was Yun Yinchen’s father, Yun Qianshan.
Upon hearing the middle-aged man’s words, Yun Qianshan’s face also flashed with pain.
"Alright, let’s go see Yun Xi."
They set off imdiately.
As the only daughter of the Yun Family, Yun Xi had always been the apple of their eye. She had gone missing three years ago while fleeing from an arranged marriage. Despite the family’s search, they couldn’t find her, and later, her Soul Lamp was extinguished.
The extinguishing of the Soul Lamp ant she was dead, vanished from this world, no longer a part of this realm.
The Yun Family was stricken with deep grief and could only erect a ceremonial mound for Yun Xi.
The ceremonial mound was located on Yunwu Mountain, the most scenic spot of the Yun Family grounds, protected by a great Array, making it eternally spring with Moon-ranked flowers always in bloom.
"Yun Xi, in life, loved the Moon-ranked flowers the most."
Amidst the blooming Moon-ranked flowers, a solitary grave stood glowing faintly. Yun Yinchen’s eyes were slightly moist as he murmured:
"If it hadn’t been for that arranged marriage, Yun Xi might not have died..."
By his side, Yun Qianshan also sighed and said:
"It’s all my fault; I shouldn’t have helped her escape!"
Back then, it was because he loved Yun Xi too much that he couldn’t resist secretly helping her flee the Yun Family.
Now all he had was regret. If he could do it over, he would rather have Yun Xi marry into the Zhan Family than have her die...
The two n stood in silence for a long ti, until Yun Yinchen picked a bunch of the most beautiful Moon-ranked flowers and laid them in front of Yun Xi’s grave marker before leaving.
"Has the Zhan Family accepted the new marriage arrangent?"
Upon leaving Yunwu Mountain, Yun Qianshan inquired.
The forr marriage alliance between the Yun Family and the Zhan Family was pursuant to the wishes of the Yun Family Wandering God, Yun Yang.
After Yun Xi fled, the relationship between the Yun Family and the Zhan Family deteriorated. In recent years, the Yun Family had made great efforts to nd the relationship, even arranging a new marriage alliance.
Because the marriage alliance between the Yun Family and the Zhan Family seed to involve so struggle at the Divine Spirits level!
The Yun Family Wandering God, Yun Yang, appeared to be in great need of the support from the Zhan Family Roaming God, Zhan Bai...
This made the Yun Family quite passive.
Yun Yinchen nodded and said:
"Soon, Yun Qin’s constitution is very strong, and the Zhan Family is quite satisfied with her."
Yun Qin was the foster daughter of the Yun Family.
Yun Qin grew up with Yun Xi and was as close as sisters to her.
After Yun Xi fled, Yun Qin volunteered to take Yun Xi’s place and enter into marriage with the Zhan Family.
Over the years, the Yun Family cultivated Yun Qin with all their might, and she had beco a well-known exceptional beauty in Central Province.
"Reporting to the patriarch, the Zhan Family elder, Zhan Wanren, and the young master, Zhan Shaoling, are here to visit!"
At this mont, a steward rushed to report.
Hearing this, Yun Yinchen was imdiately pleased.
Zhan Wanren was the Supre Elder of the Zhan Family, and his coming along with Zhan Shaoling was highly indicative of a potential discussion regarding the marriage alliance.
"Father, I will go see Elder Zhan first."
Yun Yinchen spoke and left imdiately.
Afterward, Yun Qianshan returned to his palace.
In his palace, there were two Chinese Rose plants.
These two plants were planted by Yun Xi three years ago for him.
"Xi girl, Grandpa misses you," he said where no one else could hear. He extended his withered hand, wiping away the hot tears from his eyes.
Feeling sowhat alone, he sat beside his desk, his mind wandering back to when Yun Xi was still around, playing joyously here, leaving his cultivation items in complete disarray...
He absentmindedly took out a Crystal.
This Transmission Crystal was specially used to contact Yun Xi, which he had always kept safe, as it held several voice ssages from Yun Xi from three years ago.
"Grandpa, I’ve run off to the Eastern Wilderness!"
"Grandpa, the family people are looking for , I, I’m planning to hide in the forest... But these forests are strange, they’re a bit like the Burial God Wasteland you told about..."
He had listened to these few voice ssages countless tis, tearing up with each listen.
Upon infusing Spiritual Power, the voice of the young girl within the Transmission Crystal ca through:
"Grandpa, I’m back!"
At the sound of the voice, Yun Qianshan was suddenly shaken.
He stared intently at the Crystal in his hand.
"What?!"
His eyes widened and his hands started to tremble as he muttered:
"Did I hear wrong? Am I hallucinating?"
His heart pounded fiercely, filled with nervousness as he quickly infused Spiritual Power again.
"Grandpa, I’m back!"
"Grandpa, I’m back!"
It was Yun Xi’s voice!
He had not heard wrong!
At this mont, Yun Qianshan felt a surge of warmth upswell in his heart, and he stood up excitedly, saying:
"My Xi girl... isn’t dead?!"
"No, I must check her Soul Lamp!"
