Nearly two hundred Grand Unity Golden Immortals and over a thousand Golden Immortals were scattered throughout the abyss gorge, which was less than a hundred thousand miles long.

Encountering others was unavoidable.

Under the shroud of the Four Great Divine Winds, even Grand Unity Golden Immortals dared not be careless in the slightest.

Ambushes, being ambushed, Spiritual Treasures clashing, killing for treasure...

A series of events inevitably occurred.

Even though Luo Qing didn't intend to seek trouble with others, he indeed encountered a cultivator at the mid-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm who wanted to take advantage of the situation.

However, that person thought too highly of himself and underestimated Luo Qing too much.

As long as he didn't encounter the Void-Disrupting Wind, the power of the Wind Spirit Pearl was still very trustworthy.

Amidst the rampant Soul-Devouring Wind, Yin-Yang Wind, and Spring-Autumn Wind.

Other Grand Unity Golden Immortals had to dedicate most of their energy to dealing with the divine winds.

Luo Qing, however, could attack with all his might without any reservations. In just a moment.

A mid-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivator had his head lopped off by Luo Qing. The Soul-Devouring Wind surged, and his Nascent Soul was immediately annihilated.

"He's really quite poor, not even a single Innate Spiritual Treasure!"

Luo Qing couldn't help but complain after inspecting his spoils.

However, it wasn't entirely unexpected. Although the one he killed was a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

His origins were merely that of an ordinary intermediate Innate God, so it was understandable that he hadn't obtained any fortuitous encounters.

Continuing to explore downwards, the deeper Luo Qing went, the more cautious he became.

Thirty thousand miles away from Luo Qing.

Daoist Xiang shattered an individual who was attempting to ambush him with a single palm strike, turning the Grand Unity Golden Immortal into dust.

Casually killing a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, Daoist Xiang didn't even bat an eye.

"En? Have the Dragon Clan arrived?"

A hint of surprise appeared on Daoist Xiang's death-like face, followed by a smile.

His figure flickered, transforming into a dark aura that merged into a gust of Soul-Devouring Wind, heading into the distance.

In the direction Daoist Xiang was heading.

Fifteen Grand Unity Golden Immortals of the Dragon Clan were forming a grand formation, rapidly descending into the depths of the gorge.

One of them, a peak Grand Unity Golden Immortal with crystalline pupils, was at the core of the formation.

The crystalline Dragon Clan Grand Unity Golden Immortal frowned. A sky-shattering dragon claw instantly extended from the formation, grabbing towards a blank area tens of thousands of miles away.

"I have no ill intentions, spare me!"

A Grand Unity Golden Immortal tumbled out of the void in a panic.

He shouted loudly and intended to flee.

But for some reason, the void within a ten-mile radius seemed to have solidified.

This Grand Unity Golden Immortal couldn't dodge in time and was caught by the sky-shattering dragon claw.

With a clench of the dragon claw, the Grand Unity Golden Immortal immediately turned into a pulp, his body and soul annihilated.

"If I didn't need to use these Grand Unity Golden Immortals to disperse the power of the gorge's divine winds, I wouldn't have allowed these people to escape in.

They don't even think about escaping, yet they dare to actively seek death, truly asking for it!"

The crystalline Dragon Clan member cursed contemptuously, his majestic dragon eyes scanning the surrounding thousand miles.

Seeing no one else, he then led the formation deeper into the gorge.

Only after the Dragon Clan had left did Daoist Xiang emerge from a gust of wind.

"The Dragon Clan has indeed come prepared!"

Daoist Xiang's dim eyes flickered, and he immediately pursued the Dragon Clan below.

The Grand Unity Golden Immortals of the Dragon, Phoenix, and Kirin Three Clans had clearly made thorough preparations.

Each of their fifteen Grand Unity Golden Immortals was arranged in a grand formation, charging rampantly through the gorge.

No Grand Unity Golden Immortal they encountered dared to contend with them.

However, many astute individuals had also realized that the Three Clans were determined to obtain the Wind Spirit Gorge.

There were indeed some who considered themselves immensely powerful and secretly followed behind the Three Clans.

Even Luo Qing, at a depth of five hundred miles into the gorge, the place where he had previously encountered the Void-Disrupting Wind.

He also spotted a group of powerful Phoenix Clan Grand Unity Golden Immortals from afar.

"Further down, the Void-Disrupting Wind rages! I wonder what countermeasures these Phoenixes have,"

Luo Qing mused to himself.

This divine wind was unlike ordinary powers; once it attacked, it was dense and numerous, making it quite difficult to avoid.

Luo Qing mused that since the Three Clans of Creation dared to come, they must have had sufficient means to bypass the Void-Disrupting Wind.

Without getting close, Luo Qing trailed the Phoenix Clan from three thousand li away.

He relied on the Eye of the Great Dao to observe the Phoenix Clan's methods from afar.

When the Soul-Devouring Wind and two other divine winds attacked, Luo Qing noticed that the divine winds were blocked by the great formation's barrier.

Upon reaching the area where the Void-Disrupting Wind raged, a powerful force erupted from the Phoenix Clan's formation.

It firmly suppressed the spatial energy.

The reason the Void-Disrupting Wind was troublesome was that it carried spatial turbulence.

Once blown by the wind, one would inevitably fall into the spatial turbulence.

The Phoenix Clan's countermeasure was to use their immense power to directly suppress and stabilize the surrounding space.

With even the spatial turbulence suppressed, the Void-Disrupting Wind was neutralized.

"So that's how it is, directly suppressing and stabilizing space?"

Having witnessed the Phoenix Clan's methods, Luo Qing had to admit that although the method was simple and crude, it was very practical.

This was especially true for a super clan like the Phoenix Clan with deep foundations.

It was not as if treasures that stabilized space were readily available, but they certainly wouldn't be lacking.

"Treasures that stabilize space, it seems I don't lack them either!"

Luo Qing's eyes flickered, a hint of hesitation in them.

The reason he hadn't taken out the Five Elements Spiritual Ring together last time was because there were too many Grand Unity Golden Immortals here. As a top-tier Innate God, possessing two Innate Spiritual Treasures wasn't much.

At most, it would attract a bit of attention.

But if he were to reveal seven Innate Spiritual Treasures at once, it would surely incite envy.

He might even be attacked by a mob, with people trying to kill him for his treasures!

However, he couldn't afford to worry about other things now; Luo Qing could only be more careful.

With the Five Source Spirit Disk above his head, connected to the Five Elements Spiritual Rings, the five elements' power erupted from the six Spiritual Treasures, circulating and flowing.

The space around Luo Qing's body for dozens of feet instantly solidified as if frozen.

The power of the five elements possessed the ability to stabilize and strengthen space.

The Five Source Spirit Disk and the Five Elements Spiritual Rings complemented each other perfectly.

Externally, the Wind Spirit Pearl suppressed the divine winds, while internally, the power of the five elements stabilized space.

Luo Qing's descent speed suddenly surged.

When the Void-Disrupting Wind attacked again, the six five-element Spiritual Treasures flashed, blocking the spatial turbulence.

The Five Elements Spiritual Rings, when combined, already possessed the power of a top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, and with the Five Source Spirit Disk generating the power of creation's five elements, Luo Qing's defensive power reached a new height.

"Perhaps I can go deeper into the gorge to the bottom before the three clans!"

With this thought, Luo Qing's escape technique quickened.

Although the Grand Unity cultivators of the three clans had higher cultivation than Luo Qing, they were bound by their great formation, and their speed was inevitably reduced.

Furthermore, the deeper they went into the Wind Spirit Gorge, the more concentrated and powerful the Four Great Divine Winds became.

Even with the protection of their great formation, the three clans dared not be careless.

A thousand li into the gorge, three thousand li, six thousand li...

By the time he reached eight thousand li deep, Luo Qing's face had turned pale.

Beyond the light of his Five-Colored Protective Shield was chaos. The Four Great Divine Winds intertwined densely, as if he had fallen into a liquefied sea of wind.

If not for the protection of the Five Elements Spiritual Rings and the Five Source Spirit Disk, Luo Qing suspected he wouldn't have lasted even a single breath outside.

This kind of wind sea was probably only navigable by Grand Luo Golden Immortals!

What made Luo Qing's expression even more grim was that his essence and magic power had been depleted by seventy percent due to the simultaneous operation of six Spiritual Treasures.

"Could it be that it's more than ten thousand li deep down there?"

Luo Qing was conflicted, but having reached this depth, he was truly unwilling to retreat.

Gritting his teeth, Luo Qing decided to continue descending until his magic power was depleted by ninety percent.

Leaving ten percent of his magic power in reserve would not hinder his escape.

As Luo Qing, enduring the impact of wave after wave of wind sea, descended to nine thousand li, the immense pressure suddenly vanished. Luo Qing's consciousness was struck as if by a heavy hammer.

His soul felt as if it had been shaken out of his body, transforming into a wisp of wandering soul light.

Before he could think, his consciousness had just returned to clarity.

Luo Qing was stunned by the scene before his eyes.

He saw the Giant Axe flash with golden light, and a Primordial Spiritual Light bloomed.

It split time and shattered space, and a bubble world radiating nine-colored light was born.

"Creation Scene!"
