It was better not to know, but now that Luo Qing had achieved the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm, he had fewer worries than before.

With his Grand Unity cultivation, as long as he didn't provoke Grand Unity experts, even if he encountered a peak Grand Unity, escaping would not be a problem.

Having made up his mind, Luo Qing immediately rushed to the core of the Wind Spirit Mountain Range without stopping.

The ancestral land of the Wind Spirit Clan was located within a vast canyon.

But for some unknown reason.

Ever since the Wind Spirit Clan was annihilated, four powerful and strange divine winds had begun to blow throughout the entire canyon.

The Soul-Devouring Wind, which ravaged the Nascent Souls of Immortals and Gods; if defenses were breached, the Nascent Soul would be blown apart.

The Spring-Autumn Wind, once blown by this wind, one's lifespan would be directly shaved off by eight hundred years.

Even Grand Unity Golden Immortals could not withstand the threat of this wind that directly reduced a being's lifespan.

The Yin-Yang Wind, once blown by this wind, would cause Yin Yang imbalance, chaotic magic power, runaway Essence, and drastic changes in demeanor, among other things.

The first three divine winds, although each unique and powerful.

If one prepared beforehand, there was always a way to restrain and defend against them.

The truly troublesome one was the fourth divine wind.

The Void-Disrupting Wind, once caught in its embrace, one would instantly feel like falling into spatial turbulence.

In the blink of an eye, one could be teleported millions of miles away.

Even Grand Unity Golden Immortals could hardly resist this wind, and would immediately disappear into the canyon.

The exploration of the Wind Spirit ancestral land and the Wind Spirit Canyon by all Immortals and Gods had always been hindered by the Void-Disrupting Wind.

This wind was unpredictable, but Grand Unity Golden Immortals could still survive and emerge from spatial turbulence.

However, many Golden Immortals and Gold Gods had died in the spatial turbulence.

When Luo Qing arrived at the Wind Spirit Canyon, he saw a Grand Unity Golden Immortal who had been blown millions of miles away by the Void-Disrupting Wind and had just returned.

"Fellow Daoist Xiang, this is already the eighth time you've been blown out by the Void-Disrupting Wind recently! I think you should save your strength, this Wind Spirit Treasure is not fated for you!"

"This Wind Spirit Treasure is a matter of fate. It seems that Fellow Daoist Xiang truly lacks this fortune."

Facing the teasing of the Immortals and Gods, the amiable Grand Unity Golden Immortal, known as Daoist Xiang, did not get angry.

He chuckled and said:

"If I don't have this fortune, do you? Aren't you all the same as me, unable to even cross the outer perimeter of this Wind Spirit Canyon."

Upon hearing Daoist Xiang's words, the surrounding Grand Unity Immortals and Gods sighed and shook their heads.

"The four great divine winds of the Wind Spirit Canyon are indeed quite troublesome. Over these past few epochs, countless fellow Daoists have charged forward, yet none have been able to penetrate the inner depths of the canyon. I fear only a Grand Unity Venerable can traverse the barrier of the four great divine winds!"

In recent years, there have been no less than hundreds, if not thousands, of Grand Unity Golden Immortals who wished to explore the Wind Spirit Canyon.

But so far, there was no news of anyone being able to traverse the barrier of the four great divine winds.

Perhaps someone had bypassed it, but it was not reported.

The Wind Spirit Canyon was merely a deep, rift-like canyon extending for a hundred thousand miles, with a width ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand miles.

Its depth was unknown, reaching to the depths of the earth.

And strange divine winds constantly blew outwards from within the canyon.

This place was the core area of the Wind Spirit Mountain Range.

Within a million miles, most of the spirit-rich mountain peaks were already occupied.

Compared to the fierce competition in the outer regions of the Wind Spirit Mountain Range, there was less conflict in the inner regions.

Everyone's attention was focused on the Wind Spirit Canyon.

With just a glance, Luo Qing noticed at least ten Grand Unity Golden Immortals studying the Wind Spirit Canyon around him.

And this was only the area where Luo Qing was located; the Wind Spirit Canyon stretched for a hundred thousand miles.

The number of Grand Unity Golden Immortals in the surrounding areas was likely to exceed a hundred.

Luo Qing then understood why the outer regions of the Wind Spirit Mountain Range were filled with the struggles of Golden Immortals and Gold Gods.

It was likely that all the Grand Unity Golden Immortals within billions of miles around the Wind Spirit Mountain Range had gathered near the Wind Spirit Canyon.

The four great divine winds that could block hundreds and thousands of Grand Unity Golden Immortals.

Luo Qing did not dare to be careless and did not rashly go to explore.

Instead, he inquired for information from others nearby.

When there were no conflicts of interest, many cultivators, Immortals, and Gods were quite approachable.

Not to mention the aura of a top-tier Innate God emanating from Luo Qing, which made people dare not underestimate him.

After Luo Qing gathered information and circled above the Wind Spirit Canyon.

He also decided to try exploring it.

Grand Unity Golden Immortals like Luo Qing, who were new to the area, were quite common near the Wind Spirit Canyon and didn't attract much attention.

He chose a remote section of the canyon, sparsely populated and about five hundred miles wide.

Luo Qing circulated the Five Source Spirit Disk around his body and began to venture deeper into the Wind Spirit Canyon.

As soon as he entered the canyon, Luo Qing's expression tensed.

The Soul-Devouring Wind had arrived!

Even with the Five Source Spirit Disk protecting him, Luo Qing felt his Nascent Soul was a bit unstable, as if it had sensed its nemesis.

Luo Qing didn't dare to be careless, not knowing how deep the Wind Spirit Canyon went, and held the Wind Spirit Pearl in his hand.

The Wind Spirit Pearl, a mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, possessed the ability to subdue and suppress all winds.

As soon as the Wind Spirit Pearl appeared, Luo Qing immediately sensed that the power of the Soul-Devouring Wind around him had greatly diminished.

Luo Qing was overjoyed and didn't hesitate, immediately speeding up his descent into the canyon.

Thanks to the protection of the Wind Spirit Pearl, neither the Soul-Devouring Wind nor the Spring-Autumn Wind or Yin-Yang Wind could hinder Luo Qing in the slightest.

He proceeded unimpeded all the way to a depth of five hundred miles within the canyon.

Suddenly, a faint, almost imperceptible breeze brushed past his face.

Luo Qing's expression changed, and he inwardly cursed, "This is bad."

He had encountered the Void-Disrupting Wind!

The Wind Spirit Pearl was actually unable to suppress this wind.

His vision went black, and Luo Qing was swept into the spatial turbulence by the Void-Disrupting Wind.

When Luo Qing, battered and bruised, returned to the Primordial Era through a spatial rift, ten days had already passed.

With the Spiritual Treasure protecting him, the spatial turbulence naturally couldn't do anything to Luo Qing.

"Damn it, this Void-Disrupting Wind is truly insidious."

Luo Qing saw that he was now three million miles away from the Wind Spirit Canyon.

"No wonder so many Grand Unity Golden Immortals are helpless against the Wind Spirit Canyon!"

Even a mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure like the Wind Spirit Pearl couldn't guard against the Void-Disrupting Wind; it was clear how difficult this wind was to deal with.

At the same time, this piqued Luo Qing's curiosity.

What exactly was in the Wind Spirit Canyon that could create such widespread, extraordinary divine winds?

The Bone-Scraping Wind, where the Wind Spirit Clan had taken refuge in a small cave-heaven before, was insignificant compared to these four divine winds.

Luo Qing was pondering how to study this Void-Disrupting Wind.

The previous encounter was too brief; he hadn't even had time to analyze it with the Eye of the Great Dao before being blown into the spatial turbulence.

Suddenly, a dragon's roar echoed from ten thousand miles away.

As soon as the roar reached his ears, Luo Qing's Nascent Soul immediately trembled.

The powerful pressure on his Nascent Soul made Luo Qing's face turn pale.

"Grand Unity!"

He looked up in the direction of the dragon's roar.

He saw a vast expanse of Water Essence filling the sky, surging from afar.

It was like a boundless ocean, galloping across the heavens.

More than a dozen majestic and divine True Dragons of the Dragon Clan were freely roaming within the ocean of Water Essence.

"The Dragon Clan? How could they be here!"

A flicker of confusion crossed Luo Qing's pale face, but he didn't dare to hesitate.

He immediately used his fastest speed to flee towards the core area of the Wind Spirit Mountain Range.

The Dragon Clan's arrival boded ill, and Luo Qing dared not be careless.

Above Mount Sumeru, Luohu slowly opened his demonic eyes and gazed towards the Wind Spirit Mountain Range.

"The Dragon Clan, Phoenix Clan, and Kirin Clan have all arrived at the Wind Spirit Mountain Range. Could it be that the fallen Wind Spirit Clan harbors some unknown secret?"

Luohu muttered to himself.

The four primordial spirits of creation held extremely high status and had special identities. The arrival of the three clans together greatly piqued Luohu's interest.
