Only the disciples of the Purple Cloud Realm did not laugh. The Ten Radiance Immortal Lords and others immediately went to help their master, Ziwei, while many other disciples glared angrily at the laughing immortals around them!

Ziwei quickly regained his senses. He had been completely stunned by the beating, but once he came to his senses and saw his current state, and heard the laughter of the immortals around him, he knew everything!

Crape myrtle!

The most powerful person in the Immortal Realm, the emperor of the number one power in the Immortal Realm!

He was arrogant and would never tolerate being treated like this. But this time, almost all the immortals laughed. He couldn't punish everyone, so he had no choice but to endure it.

With a flash of light, she changed into a different set of clothes, and her hair grew back instantly. In an instant, Ziwei returned to her usual appearance, but the scene just now was remembered by the immortals around her.

Qi Mu immediately exclaimed, "Oh dear, Ziwei, what exactly happened? What in the Immortal Realm could possibly make the great, powerful, and invincible Great Emperor Ziwei act like this?"

Bright Sun Sect deliberately put on a stern face and said to Qimu, "Qimu, don't talk nonsense. What kind of person is the Great Emperor Ziwei? How could he be beaten up like this? It must be that the Great Emperor dressed up like this on purpose to lighten everyone's mood and make everyone happy. Longshi Sect, Lingyu Sect, what do you say?"

The other two immediately nodded in agreement, saying, "The Emperor truly cares about us! He made such a sacrifice just to lighten the mood; we are truly impressed!"

Ziwei trembled with rage, his voice icy as he said, "I... I did this to... to lighten the mood? To ease the tension?" He truly wanted to kill, he was insanely mad!

However, none of the sect leaders of the Four Sects of the Immortal Realm cared about him. The Four Sects of the Immortal Realm were united in their fight against the three Immortal Emperors. Their disadvantage stemmed from the Immortal Army; if they were to attack now, they wouldn't be afraid at all. The Immortal Army was far away. The Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor might not even intervene. For the Four Sects of the Immortal Realm to deal with Ziwei would be as easy as picking up tofu!

The Azure Emperor chuckled and changed the subject, saying, "Ziwei, what's in this cave? It seems quite powerful!"

Ziwei said coldly, "Hmph, very powerful? Extremely powerful! Incredibly powerful! Qimu, aren't you all very powerful? Go in and try!"

Qi Mu wasn't stupid; Zi Wei hadn't even lasted a single round before being beaten so badly. He estimated she'd be finished in one round.

Qi Mu deliberately said, "Well... if our Four Sects of the Immortal Realm were to intervene, success would be assured. However, our Four Sects of the Immortal Realm have only lost a few Immortal Beast, which doesn't significantly affect our power. We're only here to give face to Your Majesty. By the way, these Auspicious Beasts are extremely precious; Your Majesty won't just give them up like this!"

"How could we, the Purple Cloud Realm, possibly give up? Hmph, it's just that some people boast so much, yet when asked to take action, they make all sorts of excuses. Sigh, the truth is, if you don't have the strength, why pretend to be something you're not?" Ziwei said sarcastically!

Normally, Ziwei might have maintained his hypocritical gentlemanly demeanor, but today, he had lost face and was furious! However, he didn't have the strength to take action against the Four Sects of the Immortal Realm, so he could only use words to provoke them, hoping that they would also lose face.

Zhang Xingfeng asked in confusion, "This... does the Great Emperor Ziwei think he is very powerful? But why did he just now..." A smile immediately appeared on Zhang Xingfeng's face.

At this moment, Ziwei stared at Zhang Xingfeng with a cold face. What he least wanted to hear was others talking about his embarrassing incident just now, but Zhang Xingfeng did just that anyway.

Ziwei screamed inwardly, "Zhang Xingfeng, I will kill you! Kill you! Even grinding your bones to ashes won't quell my hatred!!!"

Zhang Xingfeng didn't care at all. He and Ziwei had already broken off relations and wanted to kill each other. The reason Zhang Xingfeng was dealing with Ziwei like this was simply to make her lose even more face.

"See that? They're all from the highest levels of the Immortal Realm. Ziwei got scolded, but she didn't dare to retaliate. Goodness, if I could ever scold Ziwei a few times, I'd be laughing in my dreams!" some low-ranking immortals said from afar.

"Heh heh, stop dreaming. Look at who those people are talking to! The sect leaders of the Four Sects of the Immortal Realm, the three Emperors of the Immortal Realm, and a master whom even the Four Sects of the Immortal Realm treat with utmost respect—the so-called Carefree Immortal Emperor. Look, even someone as arrogant as the Ten Radiance Immortal Lords doesn't dare to utter a sound now. Hmph, unless you reach the late stage of Immortal Emperor, you'd better shut up!" A nearby immortal immediately rebuked him.

"I was just saying, and you're already attacking me!"

Ziwei's mind raced. She looked at the Azure Emperor Heavenly Emperor, the Heavenly Emperor, and the sect leaders of the Four Sects of the Immortal Realm, then glanced at Zhang Xingfeng: "None of these people are willing to make a move. They're probably just watching my Purple Cloud Realm make a fool of itself. But how can my Purple Cloud Realm abandon the auspicious Auspicious Beast? Even if I die, it won't do! What should I do? What should I do? What exactly is that beast engulfed in flames? It's so powerful! Countless beasts and Immortal Beast from my Purple Cloud Realm are currently in that cave, as if that beast in the fire is their king. And even with the Seven Star Robe and ten times the immortal energy, my attack had no effect whatsoever. In fact, the backlash almost cost me my life. It's terrifying, terrifying! Even a god couldn't be this powerful!"

Ziwei was incredibly troubled. He had witnessed the power of that fiery beast firsthand; the monster, engulfed in flames, hadn't retaliated at all. Ziwei had only ended up like this due to the backlash from his failed attack. Just how terrifying and powerful was that fiery beast? That remained a secret.

However, Ziwei knew that even if everyone from the Purple Cloud Realm died today, there was probably no hope of success.

"Drag them down with us!" Ziwei looked at the Azure Emperor Heavenly Emperor, then at the sect leaders of the Four Sects of the Immortal Realm, and finally glared fiercely at Zhang Xingfeng.

"Hey, Zhang Xingfeng, hurry up and go into the cave, this old man has something to tell you! By the way, just think what you want to say!" A faint voice echoed in Zhang Xingfeng's mind.

Zhang Xingfeng was startled. "Let me into the cave, the cave that turned Ziwei into that!" Zhang Xingfeng immediately asked in confusion, "Who are you?"

At this moment, Old Man Huo was in a canyon behind the cave. That canyon was a world of fire that Old Man Huo had specially created for himself!

Old Man Huo couldn't create a perfect world, but he could create a world of fire. Creating a canyon was a piece of cake for him. Old Man Huo been waiting in this canyon for half a year, drinking five jars of wine in the process, before they finally arrived. Old Man Huo was so impatient that he simply let Zhang Xingfeng in himself.

"I am the master of the fire element in the universe, an invincible being. Even the supreme celestial being of the Divine Realm is no match for my little finger!" The Old Man Huo deliberately wanted to show off in front of Zhang Xingfeng was about to become his disciple!

Zhang Xingfeng was stunned. In his mind, the Divine Realm was the highest, and the Supreme Celestial Venerable of the God Divine Realm was the most powerful. Although he didn't know what that meant, he should know from the title that the strongest in the Divine Realm was the one with the title. This old man claimed to be the controller of the cosmic fire element, an invincible being. Even the Supreme Celestial Venerable of the Divine Realm was no match for his little finger! Zhang Xingfeng was bewildered, but finally came to a conclusion.

"This old man is bragging, he's crazy, he has symptoms of daydreaming!" Zhang Xingfeng thought to himself.

"What? You're saying I'm bragging, crazy, daydreaming? You're saying I'm bragging about being the great, powerful, invincible master of the cosmic fire element, an invincible being who is even less than a little finger of the supreme celestial being in the Divine Realm? How can this be? How can this be! This is too much, too much!" The Old Man Huo was furious that his revelation of his identity had resulted in such a reaction.

Zhang Xingfeng was about to cry. He hadn't intended for the old man to know what had happened, but the old man was too powerful. He had only thought about it in his mind, and the old man already knew everything.

"This... I know you're amazing. You were able to turn the late-stage Immortal Emperor Ziwei into this state in an instant. You must be an extraordinary expert. I admit that. But I really don't know what the universe is or what the controller is! How am I supposed to know who you are?" Zhang Xingfeng said helplessly.

He now knows the meaning of realm and the meaning of dimensional space, but he just doesn't know what the universe is!

The Old Man Huo was nearly driven mad, but in an instant he understood. He realized he had been too hasty; only celestial beings in the Divine Realm understood the meaning of the universe. The Old Man Huo immediately said, "Hmm... who am I? That's right, I am the master of the Hall of Illusory Fire God!"

"Haha, you know who I am now! I've finally figured out the answer. Sigh, this has been so tiring, so tiring!" Old Man Huo sighed inwardly.

Zhang Xingfeng asked in surprise, "Are you the master of the Hall of Illusory Fire God?" Zhang Xingfeng was worried, "This guy didn't come to ask me for the Extreme Fire Crystal!" Zhang Xingfeng felt like a thief caught by the original owner.

The Old Man Huo said smugly, "Don't worry, I don't care about those Extreme Fire Crystal. By the way, I wasn't the one dealing with that Ziwei guy just now. It was my pet that dealt with him. But, hmph, my Fire Cloud Sacred Beast has the strength of Upper Heavenly God. A mere immortal thinks he can deal with my pet? Hmph!"

"By the way, Zhang Xingfeng, come in. My pet won't bother you. It took my Heavenly Fire Armor from the Hall of Illusory Fire God last time, and it felt pretty good. Hehe, but now that you've reached the level of the Dazzling Skyfire Body, this old man has something to discuss with you!"

Zhang Xingfeng knew in his heart that he had no choice but to go in. Even if this old man was not the supreme being of the Divine Realm as claimed, he was not as powerful as Little Finger. But Zhang Xingfeng was certain of one thing: he was at least countless times more powerful than the experts of the Immortal Realm. Dealing with him would be a piece of cake!

Therefore, he had no choice but to obey!

"Everyone," Ziwei said loudly, "Countless Immortal Beast from the Immortal Realm have been lured into this cave. Can all the experts in our Immortal Realm just stand by and watch? Can you bear to see your beloved Immortal Beast taken away? I tell you, there is indeed a monster inside, a very powerful one. But I believe that if all of us experts attack together, even a god couldn't stop us, let alone a single monster. Last time, I went in without paying attention and was ambushed. This time, if we all go in together, there will definitely be no problem."

Although only a small number of people were moved, most of them didn't react much! After all, they didn't have the ability to resist the Blazing Heavenly Fire.

Ziwei hardened his heart. He had no choice but to suffer greater losses in order to obtain the Auspicious Beast!

"Everyone, I, Purple Cloud Realm, will be responsible for setting up a large barrier to block the Blazing Heavenly Fire. Don't worry, there is no Blazing Heavenly Fire in that cave," Ziwei said again.

At this moment, the immortals were tempted. The Purple Cloud Realm had isolated the Blazing Heavenly Fire, so couldn't they enter the cave? Even if the monsters in the cave were powerful, they could teleport away Teleportation. What was there to worry about? Besides, everyone believed that there were countless immortals here, so what monsters were there to fear!

Of course, most importantly, almost every immortal hopes to reclaim their Immortal Beast or obtain Immortal Beast!

The Azure Emperor Heavenly Emperor, the Heavenly Emperor, and the sect leaders of the Four Emperors of the Immortal Realm all nodded.

Isolating the Blazing Heavenly Fire is no small task. At least half of the Purple Cloud Realm's forces will be assigned to prevent it. It's already quite an achievement that half of the Purple Cloud Realm's people can enter the cave.

"But who should lead the way? The one who takes the lead must be a master!" a celestial being suddenly asked.

Everyone was stunned.

Many people were thinking that they Teleportation away as soon as they encountered danger, but now the person in charge is in the most danger and probably won't even have a chance to escape. Moreover, the person leading the charge needs to be a master; otherwise, if it's someone with low skill, it might be completely ineffective.

The Azure Emperor Heavenly Emperor, and the sect leaders of the Four Sects of the Immortal Realm remained silent, even Ziwei was silent. He knew how powerful the monster was. He had lied earlier, saying the monster had ambushed him, but the truth was that he had ambushed the monster, and he had suffered such a miserable end simply because of the backlash from his attack. In any case, Ziwei was unwilling to be the first to go into battle!

Zhang Xingfeng suddenly smiled and said, "Alright, let me lead the charge!"

Everyone was shocked, but Ziwei revealed a delighted smile, thinking to herself, "Hehe, kid, you're courting death, so there's nothing I can do about it!"

Ignoring the advice of the Azure Emperor and others, Zhang Xingfeng said, "However, I want the Great Emperor Ziwei to be one after me. I believe the Great Emperor Ziwei can give me the best help."

Ziwei immediately nodded, "Okay, okay, okay!" But inwardly she sneered, "Help? They'll be lucky if they don't kick me when I'm down!"

Zhang Xingfeng nodded in satisfaction, glanced at the seemingly smug Ziwei, and a smile appeared on his face. Zhang Xingfeng knew perfectly well that the monster was the mysterious figure's pet; what was he worried about? What Zhang Xingfeng really wanted to know was Ziwei's fate!
