……
Wang Lici looked up and saw a beautiful middle-aged woman standing on a cloud, her gaze as sharp as a blade fixed on her master.
She was a beauty.
Her eyebrows were like a painting, her lips like congealed fat, and her deanor was noble. Even though she seed to be of so age, it was clear she must have been a peerless beauty in her youth.
The white cloud gently supported her body, and her luxurious dress swayed in the wind, the silk fluttering, making her look like a celestial maiden from the clouds, captivating all who saw her.
"Wow~ What an elegant big sister," Wang Lici exclaid softly, her round almond eyes wide with admiration.
She glanced at the beauty in the sky, then at her master, who had shrunk into a ball on the cloud carriage, almost as if he wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Oh~ so that's how it is.
Wang Lici nodded, indicating she understood.
Her master must owe that person a lot of money.
"Oh, it's Saintess Jinyu, long ti no see."
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, the Yunhai Holy Sovereign had no choice but to greet her with a stiff smile.
In the past, whether it was for a grand birthday celebration or bringing the Qingyuan Holy Son over, he always made sure to check Saintess Jinyu's whereabouts in advance, either visiting when she was in seclusion or when she was out traveling.
The main idea was to avoid eting Saintess Jinyu at all costs.
But this ti, for Lici's sake, he couldn't choose an auspicious day, so he had to pretend to be deaf and mute, taking detours several tis, only to be blocked by her in the end.
"Heh~" Saintess Jinyu sneered, "When I was useful, you would talk sweetly with under the moon, calling Senior Sister Jinyu. Now that I'm old and faded, I beco Saintess Jinyu."
"Gulp!" The Yunhai Holy Sovereign swallowed nervously, forcing a smile, "Senior Sister Jinyu, you're joking. No matter how ti changes, even if the seas turn into mulberry fields, you will always be the senior sister in my heart. It's just that I haven't seen you in a long ti, so I'm a bit nervous."
"Since it's been a long ti, let's have a spar," Saintess Jinyu said coldly, "I'll be waiting for you above the Nine Heavens."
With that, she stomped on the cloud beneath her feet, her figure transforming into a colorful light, speeding towards the Nine Heavens.
If it's a blessing, it won't be a disaster; if it's a disaster, it can't be avoided.
The Yunhai Holy Sovereign could only turn back to Lici and say, "Dear disciple, wait for your master in the cloud carriage. I'll be back soon."
With that, he took a deep breath, also transforming into a streak of light, rushing towards the Nine Heavens with an air of determination.
Soon, terrifying energy explosions erupted above the Nine Heavens, the overwhelming power sweeping across the sky, with bursts of light making the entire sky turbulent and frightening.
Wang Lici didn't have to wait long in the cloud carriage. After just half an hour, the Yunhai Holy Sovereign and Saintess Jinyu descended together.
However, their appearances were worlds apart.
The Yunhai Holy Sovereign was in a sorry state, his face bruised and swollen, his spirit utterly depleted. In contrast, Saintess Jinyu looked refreshed and radiant.
It was clear this was a one-sided beating.
"Master, are you alright?" Wang Lici asked worriedly, glancing at the Yunhai Holy Sovereign's complexion.
"It's nothing," the Yunhai Holy Sovereign rubbed the swelling on his forehead, circulating profound energy to reduce the swelling, and said to Lici as if nothing had happened, "It's just a normal spar, no need to worry about your master. Also, your Aunt Jinyu wants to invite you to visit her sacred island."
This wasn't the first ti the Yunhai Holy Sovereign had been beaten by Saintess Jinyu. Although he felt a bit embarrassed being beaten in front of his disciple, he didn't dwell on it too much.
"If Aunt invites , of course, I'll go," Wang Lici nodded, still a bit worried, "But Master, shouldn't you go back and heal first?"
"Lici, your master has tough skin, it's just so superficial wounds, nothing serious," Saintess Jinyu said, her mood improved, and her attitude towards Lici was particularly good, "I've heard a lot about you from other senior brothers, and now that I've t you, you're indeed adorable, completely different from your scoundrel master."
With that, Saintess Jinyu took Lici to her sacred island, treating her to good food and drinks.
From other holy sovereigns, she had long heard about Wang Lici's appetite, so she wasn't surprised, and was well-prepared, offering the best spiritual food and at.
It was clear she genuinely liked Wang Lici.
After treating her well for about ten days, she gave Wang Lici a generous gift of Immortal Spirit Stones as a eting gift.
……
anwhile.
In the Domain of Destruction.
The vast void was deep and boundless.
Clusters of colorful light floated erratically in the void.
These were void dust.
These void dust particles were ubiquitous in the void, tiny like specks of dust, almost invisible to the naked eye, only emitting a fragnted colorful glow under intense void rays, appearing luxurious and dreamlike.
A massive Yunhai Whale Boat was traversing this void like a deep-sea voyage.
It flew steadily, seemingly leisurely, yet incredibly fast. Its massive form shimred with a tallic luster under the colorful halos, resembling a fierce steel behemoth in the void, exuding a powerful oppressive force.
As it progressed, colorful void dust was continuously left behind.
The Yunhai Whale Boat had been on its journey for a while, and in less than ten days, it would reach the outermost airport of the New Luo Immortal Dynasty. By then, the cargo on board would be transford into countless ores, spiritual herbs, and other resources, to be sent back to the Shenwu World.
Inside the Yunhai Whale Boat, Cai Youdao and Jiang Yuling, responsible for escorting, were munching on sunflower seeds while calculating how many contribution points they would earn from this escort mission, and how many top-grade spiritual stones they could exchange for.
Over the years, they had completed many such escort missions, and with the continuous clearing of routes and other miscellaneous tasks, they had accumulated nearly two Immortal Spirit Stones.
This was despite Jiang Yuling consuming three to four top-grade spiritual stones annually for cultivation, and Cai Youdao needing a few top-grade spiritual stones to maintain his physical condition; otherwise, they would have saved more.
"This Master Wang Shouzhe is really generous. In less than ten years, we've already saved up two Immortal Spirit Stones," Cai Youdao said with a delighted expression, "At this rate, in less than two hundred years, we'll have enough to buy a Manifestation Pill. Disciple, with your current top-grade aptitude and ninth-level bloodline, you only need one Manifestation Pill to elevate your aptitude to the mid-stage of Heavenly Daughter Ding level. By then, with my guidance, reaching the True Immortal Realm will be a sure thing."
Saving enough for a Manifestation Pill in two hundred years was faster than he expected.
After all, both his injuries and Jiang Yuling's cultivation required substantial resources. Without Wang Shouzhe, it would have been nearly impossible to save enough for a Manifestation Pill even in a thousand years.
Just as Cai Youdao was happily envisioning a bright future.
Suddenly.
A piercing alarm sounded throughout the Yunhai Whale Boat.
"Again?"
Cai Youdao's face fell, his eyebrows instantly furrowing.
Despite his reluctance, he raised his hand to tear open space and exited the whale boat.
Jiang Yuling also looked solemn, summoning the Zixia Immortal Sword with a wave of her hand, then followed by tearing open space to the void outside the whale boat.
Just as they arrived in the void.
A domineering and fierce roar suddenly exploded in the void.
At the sa ti, a massive creature suddenly erged from behind a large teor far from the route, lunging towards the Yunhai Whale Boat.
Clearly, this giant beast had been lying in ambush here, waiting to pounce and intercept the Yunhai Whale Boat as it passed by.
It was a void creature resembling a giant crocodile, with a huge mouth full of sharp teeth, a massive and sturdy body covered in thick keratin, sturdy limbs with claws, and a large horn on its head, with a thick bone armor covering the back of its head, indicating extre hardness.
Its body length was almost a third of the Yunhai Whale Boat, and the large horn emitted a strong energy fluctuation. If a smaller void flying boat were hit by it, it would likely be destroyed.
The fierce and tyrannical pressure emanated from it, making its presence even more terrifying.
"It's that void fierce crocodile again. Why won't it stop?" Cai Youdao felt a headache as soon as he saw the beast, his expression quite depressed.
"Stop talking, let's fight~"
Jiang Yuling twirled her sword, charging directly without another word.
In battle, Jiang Yuling reverted to her aloof deanor, her expression serious, her gaze stern, and her sharp sword intent transford into purple light, continuously attacking the void fierce crocodile.
Cai Youdao, now having a capable disciple, followed suit without complaint. Colorful light spread from him as the center.
Thanks to Wang Shouzhe's treatnt, Cai Youdao's injuries had stabilized significantly, allowing him to exert much more strength than before, comparable to a normal True Immortal Realm expert.
Jiang Yuling, with the Immortal Scripture and Immortal Artifact in hand, had reached the mid-Void Realm, almost equivalent to half a True Immortal Realm. Together, their combat power surpassed that of an ordinary early True Immortal Realm expert.
However, this void fierce crocodile was no easy opponent.
It was at the fourteenth level, with an incredibly strong physical body. Even with limited intelligence due to the void environnt, its hunting instincts made it extrely formidable.
Cai Youdao and Jiang Yuling found the battle increasingly challenging, sweat dripping from their foreheads and backs, their faces gradually turning pale.
"This void fierce crocodile is too difficult to deal with," Jiang Yuling said, catching her breath after being swatted away, wiping the sweat from her forehead, "If we keep fighting like this, we'll eventually get hurt."
Cai Youdao's breathing was also labored, "Didn't Shouzhe say he would take the opportunity to eliminate the void fierce crocodile? Why hasn't he arrived yet? He's so slow and procrastinating."
Just as Cai Youdao was grumbling.
Suddenly, intense spatial fluctuations appeared in the void not far away, and a large, dark spatial rift suddenly appeared.
In the next mont, a graceful figure crossed the void and arrived.
It was an exceptionally beautiful woman with a wild and unrestrained aura, her red battle dress fluttering in the wind, heroic and unparalleled, especially her eyes, shining brilliantly, unforgettable at first sight.
With a wave of her slender hand, a crescent-shaped wheel-like Immortal Artifact flew out, spinning towards the void fierce crocodile.
Under the starlight, the crescent-shaped Immortal Artifact glimred with a cold light, surrounded by strands of cool brilliance, exuding a sharp and imposing power, as if it could tear through the void.
"Cold Moon Wheel!" Cai Youdao's face lit up with joy, instantly recognizing the origin of the Immortal Artifact, "He actually managed to invite the Saintess of Shuiyue, Shouzhe really has so skills."
With this, Cai Youdao felt reassured.
Although the Saintess of Shuiyue was a notorious gambler, her combat power was formidable.
The [Cold Moon Wheel] was a renowned top-tier Immortal Artifact, also known as a [Half-Step Sacred Artifact], second only to so Sacred Artifacts in fa. Its owners were always the Saintesses of Shuiyue Cave Heaven, making it a sort of inherited Immortal Artifact.
And its power lived up to its [Half-Step Sacred Artifact] reputation.
In the blink of an eye, the Cold Moon Wheel expanded in the void, spinning rapidly as silver cold light ford a continuous circle, slicing towards the void fierce crocodile like a circular saw.
The sharp edge seed as if it would cut the fierce crocodile in half.
But the fierce crocodile was also formidable, not to be underestimated, with a keen sense of danger. The mont it sensed danger, it curled its head into a ball, rolling to avoid the deadly strike.
"This fool, still dares to dodge in front of this Saintess!" The Saintess of Shuiyue coldly laughed, her fingers pinching, and the Cold Moon Wheel returned, continuing to crush towards the void fierce crocodile.
While the Saintess of Shuiyue was engaged in battle with the void fierce crocodile, Wang Shouzhe's Heavenly Void Cloud Boat also arrived at the battlefield, followed by three small Yunhai Whale Boats, forming a small fleet.
A light flashed above the Heavenly Void Cloud Boat, and a figure suddenly tore through space, flying out towards the void fierce crocodile.
It was a demon cultivator, appearing as a middle-aged man, wearing a black robe embroidered with dark red patterns, exuding a terrifying true demon aura.
As he appeared, the red lotus karmic fire spread unrestrainedly, enveloping the void fierce crocodile.
The fire raged, seemingly capable of burning the heavens.
At the sa ti, a hearty shout echoed, "Shouzhe, you finally let out to earn so rit. Yun Tiange, don't you dare steal my credit this ti."
This was none other than the long-restrained Red Abyss Demon Emperor.
Since he wasn't brought out for the last battle, he had been holding a grudge against Wang Shouzhe.
This ti, to ensure the safety of the void route, taking advantage of the energy tide in the Shenwu Heavenly Abyss being at its peak, making it impossible to "pick up trash," Wang Shouzhe temporarily summoned the family's ultimate weapon, Wang Anye.
At the sa ti, he also brought the Red Abyss Demon Emperor along to earn so rit, lest he constantly complain that Shouzhe was bewitched by Yun Tiange's beauty, spreading rumors and causing trouble.
With the Demon Emperor joining, the number of people besieging the void fierce crocodile instantly reached four, including the Saintess of Shuiyue, whose bloodline level crushed ordinary True Immortals. Even though the void fierce crocodile was at the fourteenth level, it was out of luck, quickly suffering severe injuries in the siege.
anwhile.
On the deck of the small Yunhai Whale Boat, Wang Ningxi, dressed in green, began directing the cloud boat to attack.
Based on the previous battle with the Nine Prison Demon God, where the small-scale Heavenly Punishnt's Wrath only tickled the Demon God, Wang Ningxi felt humiliated and ticulously improved the Heavenly Punishnt's Wrath.
Rather than an improvent, it was more like an enlargent of the Heavenly Punishnt's Wrath version.
Each Heavenly Punishnt's Wrath was made into a giant over ten zhang long, with a diater of over a zhang, filled with unstable demon crystals in the warhead, making it incredibly powerful.
However, while the power was enhanced, the drawbacks were obvious. It was too large and heavy, unsuitable for ground vehicles, only transportable by small Yunhai Whale Boats capable of flying in the void.
Under Wang Ningxi's command, a hatch at the front of the Yunhai Whale Boat slowly opened, revealing a dark cannon muzzle.
The cannon muzzle was incredibly thick, almost occupying the entire hatch, covered with dense inscriptions, looking mysterious and profound.
With Wang Ningxi's command, the cannon muzzle shook violently, launching the large Heavenly Punishnt's Wrath with a long trail of light, traversing a long distance in an instant, hitting the besieged and battered void fierce crocodile.
"Boom!!!"
In the deafening roar, a terrifying energy storm exploded instantly.
The terrifying power made the three True Immortal Realm allies' faces change, quickly retreating. The massive void fierce crocodile was blasted, its skin torn, flesh flying everywhere.
"Roar!"
The fierce crocodile howled in pain, creating intense sound waves in the space.
In such a situation, how could it dare to continue fighting? Imdiately, it curled into a ball again, ignoring its injuries and the surrounding raging energy storm, forcibly enduring the damage to escape the explosion zone, speeding towards the depths of the Domain of Destruction.
Its escape speed was incredibly fast, the ball rolling in the void, occasionally distorting space to flicker.
In a few breaths, it vanished without a trace.
Wang Shouzhe was also stunned, "Is the void fierce crocodile really that fast when it runs?"
"Wow, Shouzhe, you ca just in ti," Cai Youdao appeared on the Heavenly Void Cloud Boat with Jiang Yuling, explaining, "All void species need to migrate long distances, so their mastery of space laws is not bad. Moreover, the void fierce crocodile is a lone wolf that likes to fight alone, how could it survive without so escape skills? Besides, in this void, it's their ho ground…"
"Ningxi, you shouldn't have used the Heavenly Punishnt's Wrath to blast it," the Red Abyss Demon Emperor said regretfully, "Now that it's scared away, it probably won't appear again for a while."
"I think it's you, this old demon cultivator, who shouldn't have interfered," the Saintess of Shuiyue glared at the Red Abyss Demon Emperor, "If you hadn't ddled, this Saintess would have eventually killed the void fierce crocodile."
"You…" The Red Abyss Demon Emperor's eyes widened, his demonic emperor's might rising.
But these had no effect on the Saintess of Shuiyue, who didn't care about his status as a Demon Emperor.
"Alright, what's there to argue about this kind of thing," Wang Shouzhe raised his hand to stop them, "Hunting isn't just about strength, that void fierce crocodile has lived for so long, it's naturally very cunning."
Being able to fight and successfully capturing prey are two different things. So people can't even catch a fish, let alone hunt a fourteenth-level void species in the void.
"If it doesn't work, we can try tracking it," the Saintess of Shuiyue frowned, "But the environnt in the Domain of Destruction is too complex, and the void fierce crocodile is cunning, it might be hard to track it down in a short ti."
"No need to go through so much trouble," Wang Shouzhe turned to his great-grandson, "Anye, I'll leave it to you."
"Yes, great-grandfather," Wang Anye saluted, responding earnestly.
"…" The Saintess of Shuiyue.
Even though it wasn't the first ti she heard the term "great-grandfather," every ti she heard it, her heart was filled with exclamation marks.
Previously, she always thought that the young and handso Shouzhe, with his elegant deanor, must be a single noble, and due to previous misunderstandings, she couldn't help but have so fantasies.
But she never expected that at such a young age, he already had a large number of descendants.
What kind of genius operation is this?
The Saintess of Shuiyue couldn't understand this at all.
Such a young gentleman with excellent bloodline and boundless potential, why rush to get married?
It's a pity for her family's Yui, who idolizes Shouzhe as her male god, not knowing that he's already rolled in the sheets countless tis, having spawned a "tribe" of descendants.
And she even signed an agreent with Wang Shouzhe, keeping everything about him confidential, not allowed to reveal a word, or she'd break her oath!
Yui, oh Yui, it's not that Ancestor Anqing doesn't want to help you. The world is vast, but the debtor is the greatest, so Ancestor Anqing can only apologize to you~
Putting aside this thought, the Saintess of Shuiyue focused on Wang Anye, filled with curiosity.
Could it be that Shouzhe's great-grandson practiced so special technique? Does he have a way to track the injured void fierce crocodile in the void?
Under her curious observation, the group first arrived at the place where the void fierce crocodile disappeared.
Then, with the Saintess of Shuiyue full of anticipation, Wang Anye took out a "dice," shook it in a dice cup, checked the points, and then confidently pointed in a direction, "Great-grandfather, we should go that way."
"?" The Saintess of Shuiyue was dumbfounded, "Is this divination?"
"No, just testing my luck," Wang Anye answered honestly, "Since the dice showed the corresponding points, there must be a cause and effect in the dark."
Luck, your big head!
The Saintess of Shuiyue's eyes widened, almost losing her composure.
It was because she trusted her luck too much that she lost everything, selling herself to work for Shouzhe! Even the legendary Tree of Fortune couldn't track prey this way, right?
To her surprise, Wang Shouzhe and the others trusted Wang Anye completely, piloting the Heavenly Void Cloud Boat in the direction he pointed.
Then, amidst the Saintess of Shuiyue's grumbling, they changed direction five or six tis, each ti firmly believing in Wang Anye's "dice."
It's over, it's over!
The Saintess of Shuiyue was filled with helplessness.
Her first job as the Saintess of Shuiyue was going to fail like this.
If Shouzhe's great-grandson could really find the hidden void fierce crocodile this way, she'd help Wang Shouzhe wash his feet.
The Saintess of Shuiyue sighed in her heart, unable to resist making a vow.
Wang Anye pointed to an empty void, "It should be here."
"Let see."
Cai Youdao, also curious about Wang Anye, released his vast divine sense, probing inch by inch in the seemingly ordinary void.
Monts later, his expression changed, revealing a hint of joy, "This space seems a bit strange."
Although his combat power was far from his peak, his experience and knowledge were abundant, and his divine sense was much stronger than an average True Immortal Realm.
With a wave of his hand, the space in front fluctuated, revealing a faintly hidden space vortex.
"Is this even possible?" The Saintess of Shuiyue staggered, looking at Wang Anye in shock.
In that mont, an idea involuntarily arose in her mind. If she took him to gamble on stones, wouldn't she be able to make a coback?
"Wait!" Cai Youdao exclaid in surprise, "This space vortex seems to have so age, and its stable operation suggests there might be an ancient relic inside."
"Jackpot, jackpot, it's like killing two birds with one stone."
Ancient relic?
The Saintess of Shuiyue's brilliant eyes widened slightly, almost doubting her ears.
Are ancient relics so easy to find? Isn't this too casual?
The Saintess of Shuiyue felt her mind buzzing, as if her brain was coated with paste, almost unable to think, her face filled with disbelief.
We're all humans, why is there such a big difference?
