Realm Name: Chunshen Realm

[Boundary Name: Chunshen Realm]

[Synopsis: Once Savage Wilderness realm. Countless years ago, a powerful figure known as Lord Chunshen descended upon this world with his remaining forces and people, enlightening it and leading to the rise of civilization and the flourishing of cultivation. Thus, this realm was named the 'Chunshen Realm'. Over seven thousand years ago, it was invaded by foreign enemies, whom they called 'Extramundane Fiends,' and this calamity was known as the 'Fiends Descending into the World,' plunging the Chunshen Realm into chaos.]

"The Invert-Grand-Void Glazed Wall!"

In the mountains and fields.

Lu Qingfeng sensed his divine soul, and a layer of shimmering light emanated from it, faintly covering his physical body. The repulsion from heaven and earth and the oppressive atmosphere from all around instantly vanished.

He reached out and made a sweeping motion in the air.

Ripples appeared in the void, revealing a space. Lu Qingfeng reached into it. He was completely naked at the moment, so he quickly took out a blue robe to change into, and then took out a jade bottle.

Glug!

He opened his mouth and swallowed a handful of elixirs.

True Essence circulates.

He quickly recovered from the injuries he sustained upon his arrival. Before long, his injuries were completely healed, and he was no longer weak at all, returning to his peak condition as he had been in the Immortal Qin Realm.

"If it were an ordinary cultivator, suppressed by heaven and earth, and without Great Divine Ability like the 'Invert-Grand-Void Glazed Wall' to conceal their own secrets, they would never be able to recover from their injuries in a short time."

"The weakest stage is before they find a suitable 'native' from the Chunshen Realm to change their origins and conceal their secrets, and before they can refine elixirs or slowly recuperate."

Lu Qingfeng's mind raced.

The Ancient Sorrow cultivators who entered the Chunshen Realm this time, although all were at the Third Realm level, were all able to open up Mustard Seed Space to store items.

However, with the world changing, the Mustard Seed Space created in the Immortal Qin Realm could not be sensed and could not be opened. Entering the Chunshen Realm alone, apart from the refined magical Law Artifact, he could not bring anything else in.

For example, Lu Qingfeng.

The green robe that once stood there has vanished into ashes without anyone knowing when.

Even Law Artifact like Storage Bag, which cannot be stored inside the body, could not escape this fate.

"However, I have an avatar here for five hundred years, and I have already created Mustard Seed Space that I can use at will."

A smile appeared on Lu Qingfeng's face.

He was unwilling to lend his clone to the Min River Dragon Lord.

Unexpectedly, this unintentional act has turned into a brilliant move, giving us countless advantages. After adjusting for a while, I kept calculating with my hands in my sleeves.

Not long after.

He then looked up to the east and uttered two words softly—

"Dongxiang Province".

Chunshen Realm's territory was divided into Nine Provinces, namely:

East Aspect Continent, East Sinking Continent, East Submerging Continent, Northern Dark Continent, Southern Shang Continent, Chunshen Continent, West Origin Continent, West Splendor Continent, Western Extremity Province.

Located to the east.

The three Dongxiang Province, East Sinking Continent, and East Submerging Continent are arranged in a triangular formation, with the Sea of No Delusion between them.

This day.

In the Sea of No Delusion.

From an island shrouded in Black and White, sword light soared into the sky, reaching beyond the Nine Heavens. Immediately following, a flash of black light erupted, from which came a deafening roar—

"Qing Yuanzi!"

"Don't run!"

Amidst the shouting.

Then a black rope came flying through the air, trying to bind the sword light in front of them.

However, the sword light was sharp and agile. As it swayed, the Swordlight Splitting ninety-nine beams, rushing towards the black rope behind. Changing at will, it instantly transformed into a large array of sword light, binding the black rope with a thunderous roar. The initial sword light, however, spun in mid-air, revealing a figure before instantly transforming back into sword light, disappearing without a trace.

Boom boom boom!

The black rope shattered the sword light, and a dark light rushed forward from behind, grabbing the rope and revealing a withered-faced old man in black robes. The old man's face was extremely grim as he stared at the departing sword light, filled with resentment—

"Among that Golden Lotus, there are at least three Acquired Scattered Character)."

"Qing Yuanzi!"

"Qing Yuanzi!"

"I'll remember this grudge for the stolen treasure. I'll definitely visit your Whitehead Island another day and let you taste the power of my Soul-Slaughter Black Cord!"

The old man in black robes was initially muttering to himself, barely audible, but then he roared furiously in the direction the sword light had vanished, stirring up towering waves and causing the Black and White island below to tremble violently.

Boom!

The island's mountains couldn't withstand such force and exploded with a deafening roar, sending rocks and dirt flying everywhere and filling the air with smoke and dust—a truly apocalyptic scene.

The next moment.

The old man in black robes turned pale, glanced around, and then fled in another direction with a gloomy expression.

It also disappeared.

"Luofuzi is in the Sea of No Delusion, located in the eastern part of the Chunshen Realm. I, however, am in Western Extremity Province, in the western part of the Chunshen Realm."

Lu Qingfeng shook his head.

The clone and the original are separated by the distance of two states, Dongxiang and Chunshen. It will probably take quite some time for them to reunite.

"Let's settle things first."

Lu Qingfeng suppressed his thoughts and looked around.

He arrived from the shattered void of the Immortal Qin Realm, landing in this desolate place, with no idea where anyone lived. A slight sense of his surroundings stirred within him. He rode the gentle breeze, heading towards a mountain forest.

In the mountains and forests.

It was deserted and wild animals often roamed there.

"Aww!"

The lone wolf howled and pounced into a thicket. Lu Qingfeng landed gracefully, his gaze falling on the wolf. The ferocious wolf immediately howled and lay prostrate on the ground, too afraid to move.

In the nearby bushes, a corpse lay in a pool of blood. The body was cold but still slightly warm, indicating that it had only recently died.

"The newly deceased."

"Perfect."

Lu Qingfeng's face lit up with joy. He took out the 'Succession Token,' which resembled a pool of wine, from his robes, circulated his True Essence, and slammed it down on the corpse in the grass. The light flashed, and soon Lu Qingfeng felt as if a layer of shackles had been placed on his body.

A hazy, indistinct voice echoed in his mind, barely audible at first glance. Lu Qingfeng listened intently, and his eyes gradually cleared.

"I see."

After a moment's thought.

Lu Qingfeng gazed around and Human Soul had vanished. He then examined the corpse closely. Its shape and appearance changed, instantly transforming into the appearance of a young man, which was exactly the same as the corpse on the ground.

With a wave of his sleeve, the corpse on the ground turned into ashes and scattered away.

"Borrowing your identity and background will save you from the suffering of your body being torn apart by wild beasts after you die."

It can be considered a reciprocal gesture.

Lu Qingfeng uttered a soft word, then quickly disappeared into the forest after finding the right direction.

In Beiyang County, there was a wealthy family surnamed Chen who made their fortune through grain and livestock farming.

Unexpectedly, disaster struck.

On his way to transport grain to a neighboring county, the landlord Chen Feng encountered bandits. Not only were the goods stolen, but Chen Feng was also killed by the bandits. Only a few guards and servants escaped back.

Chen Feng's only son, Chen Fan, rose from being the young master to becoming the manager of Chen's's seven grain shops and three meat shops.

Unfortunately, Chen Fan was single-mindedly pursuing immortality and the Dao. After his father's death, he took some travel money and abandoned the vast Chen Household business to go out and seek immortality.

They were gone for three days.

This threw the Chen Household into chaos.

This day.

Inside the Chen Household.

The owners of Chen's's seven grain shops and three meat shops were all present, gathered together in one place.

The head of the table.

Chen Feng, Chen Xun's cousin and the manager of three butcher shops, sat upright with a grim expression.

A thin, elderly shopkeeper spoke first, "Master Xun, has the servant you sent to find the young master returned?"

"Yes!"

"Although the young master has practiced martial arts since he was a child, everyone knows that he hasn't achieved anything remarkable. This is his first time traveling far from home, so he shouldn't go very far."

Another, older shopkeeper spoke up, looking rather worried.

The two of them spoke.

The other shopkeepers on the field also spoke up and asked questions, causing a commotion.

Upon seeing this, Chen Xun frowned deeply. He quickly pressed his hands down and said loudly, "Masters, please be quiet."

He shouted three times, each time louder than the last.

These people finally stopped and looked at Chen Xun.

"Well!"

Chen Xun looked at these ten elders, who had all followed his cousin Chen Feng from scratch to establish themselves in Beiyang County, and sighed deeply. The expressions of everyone present immediately changed. Before they could speak, Chen Xun spoke first, "All the servants and guards in the mansion, including the clerks from the grain shop and the butcher shop, have been sent out. They have searched for hundreds of miles along both the main roads and side streets, but they have found nothing."

"How could this be?!"

"Master Xun, the young master is obsessed with seeking immortality. I heard there's a Dragon-Trapping Mountain to the east, where immortals live. The young master must have gone to Dragon-Trapping Mountain to find immortals."

The withered old man who spoke first looked anxious. "Has Lord Xun sent people to search along the main road to the east and the other two mountain trails?"

Chen Xun sighed again after hearing this, and called out towards the door—

"Zhang Qi, Zhou Wu, come in."

Two burly figures walked in from outside the door and said to the old shopkeeper, "We rode our horses for nearly a hundred miles along two separate paths, but we couldn't find the young master."

After saying that.

The old shopkeeper looked even more anxious.

Chen Xun shook his head. "I also sent people to search along the official road to the east. The people who came back reported that they asked at the post stations along the way, but none of them had seen Fan'er."

Now.

All the shopkeepers present could no longer sit still.

Chen Xun hurriedly said, "However, I am still sending people to search along the way, especially in the east. I have also sent people to bribe the constables and servants in the surrounding counties to help keep an eye out. Don't worry, everyone, my cousin only has one son. I, Chen Xun, will do everything in my power to find Fan'er safe and sound!"

"No need to look."

"I'm back."

Just as Chen Xun finished speaking, a slightly immature voice came from outside the door.

Everyone present recognized the voice. Among the ten shopkeepers, the old shopkeeper and a few others were overjoyed, while the others looked suspicious and unconsciously glanced at Chen Xun.

Chen Xun's expression also stiffened, and he looked at Zhang Qi and Zhou Wu.

Zhang Qi and Zhou Wu exchanged a glance, and almost exclaimed "Impossible!"

Chen Xun reacted quickly; his stiff expression instantly returned to normal, and he was the first to rush out the door. As he ran, he called out excitedly, "Fan'er! It's Fan'er!"

Zhang Qi and Zhou Wu, filled with doubt and surprise, also followed them out.

Next came the ten shopkeepers.

Right outside the Chen Household's meeting hall, a boy with tattered clothes, a slightly immature face, and bright eyes stood firmly.

His face and body were covered in mud, and there was even blood on his body.

He looked extremely disheveled.

"Fan'er!"

"You scared your uncle to death!"

Upon seeing the boy, Chen Xun rushed over and began checking him over. As he did so, he said worriedly, "Fan'er, are you alright? If something happens to you, how will your uncle explain it to your father!"

"Young Master".

"It's good that the young master is alright."

The old shopkeeper was moved to tears, but finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Qi and Zhou Wu chased after him, and upon seeing the boy, their faces immediately showed terror—

"This is unbelievable!"

But at this moment...

Bang!

The boy suddenly threw a punch, slamming it hard into Chen Xun's throat. Chen Xun's eyes widened, and he clutched his throat, staggering backward—

"Ah--"

"Ah-"

"Ah"

He screamed three times, but couldn't utter a single word. Blood spilled from his mouth, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud.

The dozen or so people in the room were stunned.

While they were still stunned, the boy took two steps forward and punched Zhang Qi and Zhou Wu respectively.

"It wasn't me!"

"It's Master Xun!"

However, he only had time to utter those two sentences before following in Chen Xun's footsteps.

"Young Master".

"Young Master, what is this—"

The rest of the people, including the maids and servants in the mansion, were too frightened to move.

The boy cracked his fist and addressed the Human Path, "Chen Xun sent Zhang Qi and Zhou Wu to kill me. They thought they had killed me, but I turned out to be blessed by misfortune. I ate a fiery red fairy fruit, which greatly increased my strength and fully healed my injuries. I've come back this time to avenge myself and my father."

After saying that.

The boy turned and left.

Left behind in the Chen Household, the group of people were filled with lingering fear and looked at each other in bewilderment.
