With the bright moon hanging high, Wang Xuan staggered as he descended rapidly from the night sky, nearly tumbling into the small reed-filled lake beside the house.

"Old Zhang, what's wrong with me? Could it be that my body in the room is...?" Wang Xuan asked, though he was still quite drunk, he was still slightly sobered up by the stimulation.

"You've really gotten too big for your britches!" Zhang Daoling looked at him, then without any politeness, flipped his hand and threw a bronze mirror, intending to hit him on the forehead.

Normally, people call him Ancestor Zhang, but now this drunkard not only says he has three heads, but also calls him Old Zhang directly!

Sizzle!

A faint golden glow appeared, and a small flag floated above Wang Xuan's head, directly blocking the bronze mirror. The golden patterns intertwined, preventing the rusty bronze mirror from falling down immediately.

Now, with a mere thought, Wang Xuan can used the God Slaying Banner a major breakthrough in the Supernatural Light Sea. This is a qualitative change for him, allowing his strength to leap forward significantly.

"He's gone on Carefree Journey!?" Old Zhang exclaimed in surprise. It's only been two days and two nights, where has this kid gone? He's actually advanced again, this is a bit outrageous.

Originally, despite Wang Xuan's considerable strength, Zhang Daoling thought he could still easily grab Wang Xuan by the neck, but now it's a bit harder to do so!

Moreover, after being attacked, Wang Xuan instinctively produced an Iron Stake in his right hand and was about to strike Ancestor Zhang.

This doesn't mean he wanted revenge, but rather it was an instinctive reaction after being attacked. In other words, his Combat Consciousness was very sharp and strong, making it a natural way to use offense as defense.

Zhang Daoling looked down and saw a long, thick Iron Stake coming straight at his abdomen. His face darkened slightly, and he naturally couldn't let it hit him, so he dodged it instantly.

However, Old Zhang was not calm. He hadn't even beaten this kid a hundred times yet, but the other party had turned around and started to fight back. The little chick had turned into an eagle and was about to soar into the sky!

"I'm sorry, Ancestor Zhang, I've had too much to drink." Wang Xuan quickly put away the flag and the iron rod, and bowed respectfully. He still had great respect for Old Zhang.

"Ten Stages, that's interesting." Zhang Daoling's expression changed. People who opened up special Inner Scenery Realm during their Mortal Period were indeed "capricious," their advancement was so "unreasonable"! How long has it been?

He was somewhat lost in thought. He thought to himself, Old Zhang, that back in the day he Slay Demon, seized all sorts of opportunities, crawled out of piles of corpses, and cultivated in the era with the highest concentration of Super Material, yet he hadn't progressed this quickly.

"I'm certain now, he's the same kind of person as that person from 2,700 years ago!" The Nether Blood Sect Ancestor was now certain.

He even felt that this kid's ability to reach this point in the Exhausted Era was even more impressive than that person's when he stepped into the Supernatural Domain!

As Wang Xuan descended from the moon, although he was no longer in flesh and blood, he still felt a pounding in his heart. Could something have really happened?

"Thump thump thump..." His primordial spirit transformed into a body that corresponded to the human body structure, and his heart was pounding like a drum.

"What do you think will happen?" Old Zhang glanced at him and sighed, "Are all young people these days so ambitious? They're so full of dreams, actually thinking about marrying a woman three thousand years older and Transcendent Immortals!"

"Old Zhang, I didn't, I was just guessing what happened, don't talk nonsense!" Wang Xuan quickly corrected him.

The Nether Blood Sect Ancestor spoke up, laughing, "As a male cult master among the Transcendent Immortals, I believe that a man who is 3,500 years older can share joys and sorrows."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xuan's heartbeat calmed down. He figured that the Female Demon Immortal Yanyan wouldn't dare to act recklessly, and with these two great patriarchs watching over her, there shouldn't be any major problems.

However, when he came to the window, he was startled. Dao Body on the bed, their heads touching. Had they finally achieved a thousand years of cultivation to share a pillow?!

However, this room was strange; it was set up with a magic array to prevent his primordial spirit from exploring. He couldn't fully penetrate the room with his senses and had to use the flag to break through the obstruction.

"This..." Wang Xuan was surprised. There were indeed two people on the bed, almost sleeping with their necks intertwined. What kind of scene was this that made his primordial spirit tremble.

"See that, sister? This little thief has really got some nerve. His heart is pounding like thunder. Look how excited he is. He's got quite the wicked heart."

On the large bed, the magic array disappeared, and there were indeed two people lying there. However, the blurred, male-looking body revealed its true form, which was the Red-clothed Demon Immortal.

She sat up lazily, still dressed as an ancient immortal, in a long red dress that trailed from the bed to the floor. As she rose, her long, black hair was loose, and a smile graced her fair and beautiful face. She had long eyelashes, captivating eyes, and sensual red lips.

"Greetings, Demon Lord." This was the first time Wang Xuan had been so close to her in the Old Earth. She had even come to his room. If Fang Yuzhu and Old Zhang hadn't been there, he would have smashed a flagpole down on her!

"Well, it's good that you're alright." He muttered again.

"What are you hoping for?" The red-clad Demon Lord Yanyan covered her mouth, yawned, and stretched slightly. She was very self-centered and didn't care that others were watching.

However, she did not lose her graceful demeanor; she had a slender waist, a tall and slender figure, and extremely beautiful curves, making her very attractive.

"Yanyan!" Fang Yuzhu's primordial spirit returned to her physical body, and she sat up from the bed, wearing a soft white nightgown, to prevent the demon lord from "torturing" her.

"Where is my physical body?" Only then did Wang Xuan realize that he couldn't sense his physical body. Where had it gone?

"Under the bed," said Demon Lord Yanyan.

"You are a respected Demon Lord in the Demon Clan, yet you still..." Fang Yuzhu scolded playfully.

On the bed, two figures sat side by side, one dressed in white, pure and ethereal, the other in bright red, exuding a powerful yet unconventional charm. The two powerful figures were like two Immortal Dao Flower Bud in full bloom, their elegance unparalleled.

Wang Xuan's face twitched slightly. People are indeed different. Some people are lying comfortably on the bed, while he was thrown under the bed.

At the same time, he felt very uneasy and absolutely did not want anyone to touch his body!

The Demon Lord Yanyan glared at him and said, "What, you're not satisfied? I did this to protect you. You don't know, without me, Zhang Daoling would have been studying your physical body."

Wang Xuan's heart pounded. He had too many secrets. For example, buried in the soil of his destiny was a treasure— the Nurturing Life Furnace. If it were seen by someone, it would probably be gone by now!

"Demon Lord, don't slander me. It was you who wanted to study him. Moreover, you wanted to study Fairy Fang's physical body and put both of them on the bed!" Zhang Daoling entered the room and refuted the accusation, saying that he had stopped the Demon Lord.

Wang Xuan pulled his body out from under the bed. No wonder he hadn't sensed it beforehand; it was sealed tightly, and his body was covered in yellow paper talismans!

Half of it was Daoist school talisman, which Old Zhang must have put on, and the other half was demon talisman. It wasn't just on his body, but even his face was covered in it. Was it intentional?

He's not a zombie or a vengeful ghost, so why are you covering him up like a rice dumpling?

"I prevented Zhang Daoling's primordial spirit from entering your body, so I protected your physical form and sealed it completely." The Red-clothed Demon Immortal sat on the bed, her pair of beautiful, long, white legs dangling and swinging, her delicate toenails stained red, shimmering with a crystalline glow.

Zhang Daoling retorted, "I sealed his physical body first, didn't I? To prevent a wisp of your primordial spirit from entering his body."

Wang Xuan ignored it and pulled off all the talismans. It really hurt, as if they were growing on his face. He quickly returned to his original state and instantly felt fulfilled. His body and spirit were both wonderful. Light emanated from the top of his head and auspiciousness emanated from his feet. His physical body was sublimating!

Because his primordial spirit had reached the Ten Stages level, but his physical body had not yet caught up, and now it was beginning.

During this process, he looked inward at his life essence. Fortunately, the Nurturing Life Furnace was still there, and nothing unexpected happened.

He reminded himself that he couldn't do that again. Old Zhang was a decent person, but when it came to priceless treasures, things were unpredictable. People at this level, if they weren't ruthless and merciless, would probably be dead long ago, not even reaching this rank.

As for the red-clothed Demon Lord Yanyan, needless to say, if Old Zhang wasn't there, he wouldn't just turn his life upside down, he'd probably beat him to a pulp.

"You'd rather believe Zhang Daoling than me? Now that you have my sister, you've forgotten your promise to me. Didn't you want to see me perform a fairy dance in front of you? Now you're doubting me."

The red-clad Demon Lord Yanyan, now exudes charm with every smile and frown. Her languid demeanor carries a bewitching allure, making her a truly outstanding Demon Immortals immortal.

Fang Yuzhu took direct action, placing one hand on her shoulder. Although she was smiling, she exerted immense pressure on the Demon Lord.

Wang Xuan kept his eyes down, ignoring her conversation with Old Zhang, focusing only on the transformation of his physical body and continuously improving his strength to achieve perfection!

But deep down, he still feared the Demon Lord. Although she was magnanimous and didn't hold a grudge about what happened back then, it didn't mean she wouldn't try to enter his territory if given the chance. Fortunately, Old Zhang was there, so even though both sides had their own agendas, they balanced each other out, maintaining a equilibrium.

"Ten Stages, not bad. As expected of someone who wants to see me dance. Ordinary people don't have this kind of luck. Saying such things will be killed by the great karma itself. You are still somewhat different." Demon Lord Yanyan smiled and gathered her hair. She was charming and attractive. She really had no taboos. She didn't care about anything and dared to say anything.

Every inch of Wang Xuan's flesh and blood was glowing. He remained still and silent, as sacred as Old Monk. In the face of the peerless Female Demon Immortal, he pretended to the Void for the time being.

The Nether Blood Sect Ancestor became increasingly certain that this was someone who had opened Inner Scenery Realm during his Mortal Period!

As for the other three, they naturally knew long ago, and were the first to discover it, having all interacted with each other in the Inner Scenery Realm in the past.

Finally, Wang Xuan's physical and mental advancement was complete, reaching the Ten Stages perfect level, just like his spirit. Even his drunkenness dissipated, and he felt completely refreshed.

He clearly felt that the old path had some flaws, but these had all been made up for this time, leaving no regrets and putting him in his best condition.

At the same time, after his mind returned, his senses were now incredibly sharp. He smelled a faint fragrance—wasn't that Fang Yuzhu's scent? It was actually emanating from him!

"This..." He frowned again. The Demon Lord was restless and probably had really done something.

Throughout this process, Fang Yuzhu has been secretly battling the Demon Lord!

Her spirit was suppressing the Demon Lord Yanyan, and she placed a hand on Yan Yan's shoulder, emitting a faint light, not wanting to let her leave.

"Sister, please don't misunderstand, it's really nothing."

"Sister, I'm worried about you. After all these years together, I don't want to be separated from you. I always feel that when the myth disappears, you will also go far away and never be seen again. Do you want to destroy yourself by breaking through the real world? I'm afraid of losing you. I feel that you are too far removed from the mortal world. Why don't you get married and have children, and keep your heart in the real world?"

"Hey, don't rush me. I haven't done anything yet. I've only just started. I've only just come up with this idea!"

"Sister, cherish the present. Myths are just a grand dream. We are still living in reality. We, the characters in the grand drama, are just fragments of our minds wandering in our imaginations. In fact, the mortal world is the real place. Seize everything before you!"

"I've considered it for you. This Wang Xuan is alright, so-so!"

"Sister, once you get married and have children, and have someone to care about, you might find the Real World to be so beautiful and welcoming. Stay here, don't go to your death, don't leave."

No matter how softly she spoke, Fang Yuzhu did not let go. Her eyes shone brightly, turning into runes to suppress the red-clothed Demon Lord Yanyan.

"At worst, I'll go with you, okay?" The red-clad Demon Lord Yanyan, with her free-spirited nature, climbed onto Fang Yuzhu's body with one hand, resting her fair and beautiful chin on her shoulder, and said, "Do you want me to travel far away with you, or do you want me to live in the mortal world with you? Either way is fine!"

Zhang Daoling, the Nether Blood Sect Ancestor, and Wang Xuan all went out. I couldn't hear their telepathic communication, but I could feel the sparks flying between their eyes. I didn't want to suffer an undeserved disaster.

Wang Xuan, in particular, was one of the parties involved. He smelled the fragrance on the clothes and immediately wanted to discuss philosophy with Old Zhang, so he quickly followed him out.

Zhang Daoling glanced at him and said, "What are you talking to me about Daoist scriptures? It's just Ten Stages, and you're already getting cocky? What, you want the top-secret scriptures passed down orally? You and Fang Yuzhu can ask for them later and study them together."

Old Zhang said again, "Alright, I've guarded your body for two days and two nights. Hurry up and take out that Peng egg, fry it, stir-fry it, cook it until it's done, and then drink some Celestial Immortal Drunk's Wine. That'll be a decent meal."

However, this late night was destined to be anything but peaceful. A hazy curtain appeared, drawing ever closer to the manor, bringing immense pressure.

"Ancestor Zhang, you're here too? You should leave." From within the curtain, Dao Body, carrying a faint aura of chaos, holding an ancient banner, exuding a grand and imposing presence that seemed to swallow the stars!

Heng Jun has arrived. He is the first peerless expert to obtain the supreme treasure. He holds the Ascension Banner and is now virtually unstoppable. No one can withstand him!

Beside him, Zheng Yuantian was dressed entirely in black armor, even his face was covered!

Wang Xuan felt a chill run down his spine. Was this a prelude to a complete breakdown in relations, and was it coming for him? This was a huge problem!

However, his eyes flashed with a cold light. Who was afraid of who? If it really came down to a fight to the death, it was not certain who would live or die. At worst, he would expose his Supreme Treasure Nurturing Life Furnace. He also had four peerless experts on his side. He didn't believe he couldn't crush the other party to death!

Of course, if things really get to that point, the Nurturing Life Furnace will be known to most of the world, and he will probably have a hard time keeping it at this stage.
