Famed Across the Night Mist World [Happy New Year!]

Cao Qianqiu's departure caused a stir in all directions.

Along the way, the mountains and rivers were dyed red!

"Has Cao Qianqiu gone mad? What is he trying to do with such a grand display?" Even the Grandmaster Level figures were alarmed.

In fact, only people at this level dare to make such a comment.

Most people were shocked, and then remained silent, not daring to utter a sound.

Cao Qianqiu was a formidable figure in the Night Mist World; every appearance and every move he made would make the front page of the Night Report.

The main problem is that his infamous reputation is so great that every time he leaves the Beyond the Mundane Pure Land, it is accompanied by bloodshed and violence.

Over the years, he has acted recklessly, killing the founder of a sect, cleaving monsters who wanted to become gods, and running rampant throughout the world, making all sides extremely wary of him.

In a sense, he represents power, bloodshed, tyranny, and disaster, yet no one seems to be able to check him.

Whenever he appears in a certain area, all the sects in that area will be on high alert, suspecting that he has come to slaughter and destroy their sects.

Today, he was fiercer than usual, causing quite a commotion!

He traveled with Pure Yang Consciousness Spirit Light, transforming into a Great Sun that illuminated the earth, even making the dark sky seem to be ignited.

Others travel with extreme caution in the Night Mist World, for the darkness conceals many unknown dangers.

Even Cao Qianqiu, who used to be more discreet when traveling in the night fog, was acting completely differently today, making no attempt to hide his true nature and displaying an air of Reign Over the World.

Along the way, a vast Spirit Mountain, shrouded in colorful mist, with Advanced Fire Spring gushing forth, is occupied by a large sect.

At this moment, the faction's leaders were horrified.

A Blood-Red Great Sun approached from afar, moving at incredible speed, and upon encountering their magnificent mountain gate, it made no attempt to avoid it.

"He... could he be coming for us?!"

At that moment, everyone felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, their faces turning deathly pale.

The pitch-black night sky turned blood-red as Cao Qianqiu arrived. The entire Spirit Mountain range trembled, and the protective runes automatically revived, emitting a blinding light.

It was like a sky full of crimson lightning, the night fog bursting apart, and everyone felt as if their eardrums were about to be torn apart.

Their protective runes were activated, but the Blood-Red Great Sun did not set.

Cao Qianqiu's passage was like the arrival of Godlike being, truly earth-shattering!

Even after he passed by, the deafening noise continued unabated.

Even when he encountered a powerful lineage, he simply forged ahead, continuing on his way without any intention of avoiding it.

"Fortunately... the target isn't us." It was a long time before the Grand Supreme Elder of this major sect finally spoke.

The other senior members appeared calm, but their backs were actually soaked with cold sweat.

This is Cao Qianqiu's fearsome reputation and power.

Under the cover of night, a gigantic, Higher Aberrant spread its wings, braving the Astral Wind, and pierced through the clouds and mist. It possessed immense power and could be considered a colossal demon.

This strange bird's enormous body was like a dark cloud, capable of covering mountain peaks, and it soared freely without any restraint.

However, its body was now tense, and all its feathers stood on end, because it saw the dark sky turn blood red.

It tried to dodge, but it was too late, because a powerful surge of Consciousness Spirit Light was clearing a path, surging in like a tide.

Its body stiffened, frozen in place, and then it watched helplessly as a Blood-Red Great Sun approached.

In an instant, all its feathers were ignited by the Pure Yang Light.

Under the Blood-Red Great Sun, Cao Qianqiu snorted coldly. Seeing it blocking his way, he kicked the mountain-sized bird's head, smashing it to pieces.

Lao Cao charged through, and the enormous headless bird corpse, under the blazing blood-red sun, disintegrated with a deafening roar, turning into countless ashes that scattered across the earth.

In a secluded place, an old demon was sitting on a high platform preaching.

Suddenly, his expression changed drastically. He used a demonic wind to sweep up hundreds of his descendants and fled at lightning speed.

"What's going on? Our ancestor has lived for nearly three hundred years and is revered in this land. Why is he so panicked?" A young Demon Race asked in shock.

Then they saw a Blood-Red Great Sun rush past their homeland, and their Old Ancestor actually trembled slightly.

Cao Qianqiu's departure drew attention from all sides of the Night Mist World, alarming all major powers who were closely monitoring the situation.

Soon, people realized that his route was heading straight for Kunling!

In the Secret Realm, Qin Ming reunited with Gan Jincheng, Xiao Yaqin, and others. After leaving that path, he returned to the original area.

At this moment, he felt the burning gazes of geniuses from several universities, all looking at him with a dreamlike feeling, as if they were seeing a young god.

They were in the know; they knew he was the boy demon and had witnessed the Entire Process event.

What was once an unknown nobody in their eyes has shocked them time and time again since entering the Secret Realm. From killing a "Quasi-Demon Seed" to defeating Immortal Seed one after another, it's like a legend coming to life, and right beside them.

Such a record is simply astonishing.

Once word gets out that this was done by a young boy on the New Life Path, it will surely shock the Night Mist World.

At this moment, even a proud and arrogant genius like Xin Youdao Qi Ingestion and sincerely admired the young man before him.

Even though he had once swept through eighty-one cities, he felt his own inadequacy. Compared to Qin Ming, what did those achievements amount to?

Jiang Ruoli, Gan Jincheng, Liu Hannya, and the others were even more shocked, their emotions surging violently. Looking at the dashing young man, it was as if they were seeing the rising sun slowly emerging from the night mist.

"Elder brother!"

At this moment, they, like Little Wu, directly called him "brother," even though this boy might be younger than them.

Qin Ming quickly waved his hand, emphasizing, "Don't do that, let's keep a low profile. Let's get along the same way we did before."

Soon, Little Wu returned, very excited, saying, "I've learned a great deal."

Then, he lowered his voice and asked, "Brother, did you beat up an old man? I'm on a street near you, and it looks like some old guy got smashed to pieces."

"Go back and talk!"

A group of people mentally prepare themselves, not to show any unusual behavior.

From the outside, the Secret Realm appears as a vast expanse of moss-covered land, devoid of mountains or giant trees, yet people and horses continue to emerge from it.

Meanwhile, the situation is tense on the outside.

Many powerful demons have come to the plateau, guarding one direction and guiding their young lads.

Meanwhile, experts from various universities in Kunling also arrived to welcome the disciples back.

In the surrounding area, the mountains and forests have collapsed, and the earth has cracked, clearly indicating that a major battle has taken place, and the two sides are still on the verge of war.

Pu Heng, his body stained with blood, said, "Go back and make your funeral arrangements. It won't be long before you all suffer that blow."

Across from them, a colossal demon shrouded in night mist sneered, "As expected, the rumors were true. You don't have Cao Qianqiu's life, but you've contracted his disease! Who do you think you are, Corpse Ratio? Can you carve through this plateau? Even your master couldn't!"

At this moment, the outside world was pitch black, completely different from the twilight scene in the Secret Realm.

In the direction of the plateau, under the heavy darkness of night, pairs of huge and terrifying eyes opened, some blood red, some blue, and some emerald green, all exuding an overwhelming Yao Qi!

"If my master were to arrive, you would all be nothing but worthless dogs!" Pu Heng was seething with anger. He had already learned the truth from Li Qingxu: his master had been humiliated, and he had already informed his sect.

Meanwhile, the Demon Race on the plateau were unaware that the young demons on their "side" had once smashed Cao Qianqiu to pieces with a giant hammer.

If these powerful demons knew, they would be even more overjoyed, and who knows what nasty things they would say.

Both sides exercised restraint for the time being, and no major battle took place.

Because they each have important figures backing them up.

For example, the Auspicious Beast deep in the plateau and Sun Taichu in the clouds once gazed at each other from afar across the endless sky.

One after another, young people emerged from the Secret Realm.

When Qin Ming, Little Wu, and the others came out, they found themselves reflected in a mirror.

"Demon-Revealing Mirror!" Xin Youdao exclaimed softly. Someone was still worried and had checked all the disciples.

Qin Ming's expression remained calm, but his heart skipped a beat. Fortunately, he had refined all the demonic energy beforehand; otherwise, even a trace of it would have caused trouble.

"Let's go back!" Two Old Senior of the Mountain River Academy's New Life Path, Zhao Ziyuan and Yu Gensheng, came to pick up Ling Yu, Xin Youdao, Liu Hannya and other young disciples.

However, the boys knew that the two old men were actually there mainly for those two "nobodies".

Qin Ming and Little Wu blended into the crowd and were inconspicuous.

A moment later, the spaceship took off, traversed the night fog, and headed towards the Kunling Territory. It was only a few hundred miles away, not a long distance.

"You all look energetic and full of vitality. Is everything going well?" Yu Gensheng asked kindly. He was so old that he barely had any hair left, but he was one of the most powerful veterans on the New Life Path in the Kunling Territory.

"It's alright," Qin Ming replied.

Zhao Ziyuan sensed something was amiss and said, "Hmm, nothing's happened, has it? Don't worry, this spaceship is under the cover of our two old men's Heavenly Light, we can talk without worry."

"This..." Qin Ming hesitated slightly, but still told the truth and recounted his experience.

The two old men were stunned on the spot, unable to recover for a long time. It was as if they were listening to Heavenly Scripture. The young man in front of them had just beaten up Cao Qianqiu?

They were all somewhat incredulous!

The two had high hopes for Qin Ming, believing him to be one of the sparks of hope for the New Life Path, and that he could take the place of the Ancestor in an era when they were all dying.

However, neither of them expected him to be so incredibly powerful!

Even though he possessed exceptional talent and innate abilities, Cao Qianqiu's aptitude was not bad either. He also mastered many of the sect's most powerful techniques, as well as endless insights and experience.

They realized they had underestimated the boy before them!

"You two go out first, we want some peace and quiet," the two old men said.

Little Wu asked from outside, "Brother, did you fight Lao Cao? If I had known it was him, I would have wanted to try too. It's a pity I missed the chance."

In the spaceship's Quiet Room, Yu Gensheng and Zhao Ziyuan spoke privately, their voices trembling.

"Heaven has taken pity on us! Does God realize He's been too harsh on my New Life Path? Is He sending someone like this to give our path a second life?"

"Given Cao Qianqiu's personality, he will most likely come in person and won't rest until he's left with a huge hole in this territory. This could cause unforeseen circumstances, so we need to be prepared!"

The spacecraft landed safely in Kunlun City.

Yu Gensheng reminded all his young disciples, "Recently, none of you should leave Kunlun City. A sudden change could happen at any time!"

"Brother, this trip was really great, it was worth it!" Wu Yaozu was very excited and showed no signs of fatigue. He told us that he had replenished some of his magic along the way.

"I also gained quite a bit," Qin Ming nodded with a smile.

"Just came out of the Secret Realm, my treat, let's go have a big meal!" Ling Yu shouted from behind.

Then, Xin Youdao and Liu Hannya immediately agreed.

Qin Ming and Little Wu thought about it for a moment, then nodded and followed along.

"Senior Sister!" Ling Yu saw his Senior Sister Tang Jin and immediately stepped forward to greet her.

"I've heard that a remarkable young demon has emerged in the Secret Realm, defeating even Immortal Seed one after another?" Tang Jin, dressed in black, asked with a rather cold and aloof air.

Clearly, she had her own sources of information and already knew a lot of things in advance.

Crow Master was also there, hovering in mid-air, his purple eyes gleaming, and said, "Truly a peerless genius of our Demon Race, actually suppressing all others with one path."

"How is he?" Tang Jin asked Ling Yu.

"Very strong, with heaven-defying strength, he should possess the talent of Grandmaster Level!" Ling Yu earnestly informed him.

He was traveling with Zhao Muyao, Wang Lijie, and others, but not with Xin Youdao, Jiang Ruoli, and others. Therefore, although he had some doubts, he ultimately dismissed them, not believing that the Yao Qi- looking boy was related to Qin Ming.

"Such a powerful figure must possess the potential to become Demon God. Do you feel the pressure?" Tang Jin, tall and graceful with a flawless face, looked at the group of teenagers.

Ling Yu knew that his Senior Sister mainly wanted to ask the young man from Black White Mountain if he felt any pressure.

"He's very strong!" Xin Youdao and Liu Hannya said with shining Divine Capital and great admiration.

"That's really impressive!" Little Wu said.

"Not bad," Qin Ming said with a smile.

"Is it just okay?" Tang Jin glanced at him. Sure enough, she just wanted to see his reaction in order to assess the true strength of that demon boy.

She frowned. Could the information be wrong?

Xin Youdao and Liu Hannya were feeling incredibly uncomfortable, but they had to remain calm and not show any unusual expression. They were firsthand witnesses, and the only thing missing was a look of admiration for the young man.

Tang Jin glanced at Qin Ming and said, "You haven't entered the Outer Saint Domain yet, have you? That means your Consciousness Spirit Light are difficult to condense, and you can't embark on that path. How can someone who hasn't started the path look down on the strong ones on that path?"

Ling Yu also spoke, his expression solemn, saying, "That young demon is truly powerful; he should not be underestimated. In the future, he will likely be an incomparably terrifying mountain that our generation will have to face!"

Tang Jin nodded. This matched the secret report she had received. Now that the name "Demon One" had spread, and he was capable of single-handedly holding off multiple Immortal Seed, he was bound to become famous far and wide.

Soon, a Four-Colored Sparrow flew over and landed near the Purple-Eyed Crow, as if reporting something.

"Hiss, that's terrifying!" Crow Master shared the news with Tang Jin, informing her of the latest situation.

"So amazing! How could he achieve such a record!" Even Tang Jin was astonished and quite shocked.

She muttered to herself, "It can't be kept secret any longer; it's bound to spread far and wide, shaking the Night Mist World."

Qin Ming and Little Wu remained relatively calm, with smiles on their faces.

Xin Youdao and Liu Hannya had things they wanted to say but couldn't bring themselves to say them. Upon hearing this, they immediately pressed for answers, thus indirectly fulfilling their desire to confide in others.

Tang Jin said, "Did you know that Cao Qianqiu also made a move, but he was defeated!"

In an instant, Xin Youdao and Liu Hannya were shocked. This was not a realm they could access. In the Secret Realm, they had no idea that the light belonged to Cao Qianqiu, and that Lao Cao had achieved the goal of having someone else play for him.

They thought they knew the truth and understood how capable the boy beside them was, but now, even more explosive news has arrived, leaving them somewhat dizzy.

Who hasn't heard of Cao Qianqiu in this era?

The two felt this was revolutionary; even a legendary figure like him, a notorious villain, was no match for the man before them in a duel within the same field!

Ling Yu nodded belatedly, saying, "I know, it must be that battle with Li Qingxu. I knew it! The difference in his strength before and after was too great!"

Tang Jin sighed, "To actually defeat Cao Qianqiu, this Demon One is destined to become famous throughout the Night Mist World. Today, his performance and all the investigations surrounding him will be submitted to the desks of all the top powers!"

Qin Ming looked surprised. So fast? Even Tang Jin, an outsider, knew. It seems that Cao Qianqiu's actions in the Secret Realm couldn't be kept secret at all.

"What, you realize how powerful the Demon Seed is now?" Tang Jin looked at Qin Ming, the boy she had misjudged and who had always been eager to challenge her. Was he finally surprised too?

"He's truly remarkable to receive such high praise from Fairy Tang!" Qin Ming nodded.

At this moment, even Little Wu felt a little uncomfortable, but he could only follow Ming Ge's rhythm, nodding solemnly and praising him.

Tang Jin, with her aloof and elegant demeanor, glanced at the group of youths and said, "You still don't understand. Just how impressive is a feat like defeating Cao Qianqiu at the same level? That youth is either a born Battle Saint, incredibly skilled in combat, or possesses extraordinary talent, perhaps even surpassing the Ancestor!"

In the Secret Realm, all parties have retreated.

The Broken Mirror glowed faintly, its surface rippling with patterns, as if it had received a message from afar.

"Cao Qianqiu is here, and he'll be entering Kunling Territory soon!"

It must be said that this Heavenly Demon Broken Mirror, which can also be called Immortal Mirror, is quite miraculous, as it can receive messages from afar.

It suddenly vibrated and emitted a blinding light.

"Old Cicada Skin, are you leaving? That damned guy is here, I'm getting ready to run away." Broken Mirror spoke to the massive, mountain-like Cicada Shell.

The Cicada Shell and emitted a chirping sound, as if in response.

"Fine, don't leave then." The patterns on both sides of the Broken Mirror spread out, and a pair of wings emerged. Then the mirror glowed and began packing various "supplies."

"Aren't you lacking in spirituality and already senile?" The enormous Cicada Shell emitted a ripple.

The Broken Mirror, no longer silent, said, "You really think I'm stupid? Bah, are you deliberately insulting me? I'm just being wise in disguise, investing in the pioneers of the future. Anyway, you're shameless, I'm not going to bother with you anymore, I'm leaving."

At that moment, it moved nimbly, flapping its metal wings, and disappeared into the night sky.

"Do you think that demonic youth is related to Qin Ming?" Tang Jin secretly asked Crow Master, as she had some doubts.

The Purple-Eyed Crow said, "I also have my doubts, but when I carefully sensed him, I couldn't detect any Yao Qi on him, which doesn't match the aura of those who are surrounded by Yao Qi on the Fiend Path."

Boom!

It was as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had split open, with blood-red light staining the night sky. The heavens and the earth were covered as if by the sunset, and the Kunling Territory was bathed in brilliance.

Cao Qianqiu is approaching, appearing in this area!

This caused a huge sensation.

In fact, no news could be sent in advance when Cao Qianqiu appeared in Kunling, because no other form of communication could keep up with the speed of his Pure Yang Consciousness Spirit Light.

He didn't try to intimidate the city; he paused briefly, as if conversing with someone, before heading off into the distance, heading straight for the plateau shrouded in night mist.

The Blood-Red Great Sun illuminated the mountains and all things ahead!

For a moment, Kunlun City fell into a brief silence.

A moment later, a heated discussion broke out.

When Cao Qianqiu arrived in person after it was discovered who it was, who could remain calm?

"The rumors from not long ago are true. Cao Qianqiu lost a Pure Yang Consciousness Spirit Light in that Secret Realm, and now he's come here personally!"

"Holy crap, is that young demon trying to defy the heavens? He defeated not only Li Qingxu, but also Cao Qianqiu! I'm suddenly struck by his awe!"

Kunlun City was in an uproar, and everyone was shocked.

Previously, there were only rumors circulating, but now those rumors have undoubtedly been confirmed.

Demon One from the plateau quickly became the most frequently mentioned name, and was inextricably linked with Cao Qianqiu.

Just as Tang Jin said, the rise of the Demon Seed Demon One has caused Xuanran and is destined to become famous in the Night Mist World!

Everyone knows that a great battle may break out on the plateau, and Cao Qianqiu's arrival will shatter the previous peace.

Tang Jin spoke up, "I'll treat you to Listening Rain Abode on Hope Immortal Peak in Kunlun City. From there, you might be able to see the great battle on the plateau."

At this time, Hope Immortal Peak was packed with people. If Tang Jin hadn't known the owner behind Listening Rain Abode, she certainly wouldn't have been able to reserve a private room there.

Kunling is already located on a plateau, and with Hope Immortal Peak being the highest peak in the area, Listening Rain Abode to be situated in the clouds.

The private rooms facing the Secret Realm had their windows and doors open, and many people were gazing out and discussing them.

"A fight has broken out!"

In this world of night, though they were far apart, the Blood-Red Great Sun was so dazzling that it burned away the night mist and could be seen clearly.

Cao Qianqiu unleashed his power, his first stop being the Secret Realm. Thousands upon thousands of crimson Scorching Sun Thunder from the Nine Heavens from the heavens, piercing through the sky and the earth.

Sitting in the private room, Qin Ming's pupils dilated with emotion as he witnessed this scene. He stared intently, utterly shocked.

In the real world, Lao Cao is practically a god of unparalleled power!

He had to admit that this old Madman was terrifying; although he was hated by gods and ghosts, his true strength left no room for argument.

The earth seemed to have collapsed, and Cao Qianqiu had pierced through that fragment of star!

"Lao Cao Cao's boast actually came true." Although Qin Ming wanted to beat the old Madman up again, he had to admit that the old guy was decisive and terrifying, and came to take revenge on the same day.

A single cicada's cry reverberated for hundreds of miles, startling everyone. What an enormous cicada it was, rising from the ground into the air!

A Golden Cicada, glowing brightly, filled the night sky, its Golden Haze rays shining in countless directions.

Someone exclaimed in shock, "Wow, is that the Ancient Cicada from the local legends of Kunling? It's actually still alive! How is that possible? It's practically a Godlike!"

"Look closely, it's just Cicada Shell, not the cicada itself," said an experienced master.

Then, the cicada cried out, its terrifying thunderous sound shattering the night sky.

However, as Lao Cao approached, a Great Spear appeared in the Blood-Red Great Sun, and with a soft thud, it shattered part of the Cicada Shell.

The Cicada Shell shell is entirely golden, but it is incomplete. It was already missing half of its original size, and now it has been broken into a fifth, making its situation even more dire.

Boom!

Its Zen-like aura was continuous, like the sound of thunder and chanting, as if the earth itself was sinking and cracking, and the clouds in the sky were all exploding.

The sight was terrifying; the old Cicada Shell shell possessed such power.

However, the Blood-Red Great Sun blocked its cicada chirps and Zen-like sounds. Cao Qianqiu stood within it, bathed in a blazing crimson light, seemingly impervious to all magic.

At this moment, runes intertwined in the Blood-Red Great Sun, extending a golden rope that rapidly bound the old Cicada Shell molt tightly.

Everyone was shocked. Cao Qianqiu's strength was terrifying; the battle had been ended so early?

Tang Jin transmitted his voice, "You see, that's how impressive it is that the young demon defeated Cao Qianqiu."

The boys present all nodded, but their feelings were all different.

"Can you still remain calm?" Tang Jin asked Qin Ming.

Qin Ming shook his head and said, "My heart is in turmoil, and thunder is crashing in my ears."

"Perfunctory." Tang Jin glanced at him.

Qin Ming replied telepathically, "Actually, I know where that young demon ultimately flew to, Fairy Tang. What is the value of this information?"

Tang Jin said, "You want to swindle me out of my Day Gold and Extraordinary Art?!"

"How could that be? I never do that kind of thing." Qin Ming shook his head.

On the plateau, the crimson Scorching Sun sank below. Cao Qianqiu took a step downwards, and instantly, the plateau cracked, the earth sank, and the Secret Realm he had carved through disintegrated further.

"Stop!"

Sun Taichu appeared and stepped forward to stop them, saying, "This Secret Realm still has great uses. It can contain a vast universe within a mustard seed, and all materials can be used to forge weapons."

"Where is Demon One? All demons of the plateau, hand him over!" Cao Qianqiu demanded.

He truly didn't care what outsiders thought; he was assertive and domineering, that's how direct he was, demanding a young demon.

Qin Ming remained silent. This was the reality of the world. Lao Cao acted recklessly, living a better and better life, reaching the height of his power, and becoming increasingly terrifying.

As for a battle in the same field, that's impossible. Lao Cao's belief is that all dangers must be nipped in the bud, and any grudge must be avenged, never left unresolved overnight.

"Do you want to start a war now?" Deep in the plateau, a pair of enormous golden pupils opened, terrifyingly large, like two Solar Yang appearing.

"So what if it is? I came here to conquer the plateau!" Cao Qianqiu said in a deep voice.

"Brother Dao, wait a moment. Hunting demons is fine, but do not further damage this land." A powerful figure from the Esoteric Sect appeared, appearing as if bathed in the sun, standing across the plateau.

"I'm hunting demons, and you dare to interfere? You dare to meddle in my business?!" Cao Qianqiu showed no respect to anyone.

Boom!

Suddenly, the sky and earth turned pitch black, and the entire Kunling Territory trembled.
