Sword Extremity Amid Vast Mist and Waves, Where Dawn Crows Fly, the Way Home Is Known

The Consciousness Demons are born from the various thoughts of living beings, and communication barriers do not exist for them by nature. However, these Consciousness Demon clearly have no intention of communicating or greeting Bai Qiuran. Having guarded this place for tens of thousands of years, they are already eager for more.

After Bai Qiuran finished asking the question, the response was a powerful attack numbering in the millions.

These attacks contain the purest fears of all living beings: rotting flesh, blood, deadly viruses, burning flames, sharp spikes, razor blades, and the most fundamental death.

"What a bunch of rude guys, they can't even taunt before the battle."

Bai Qiuran sighed, the Clear Autumn Waters in her hand traced an arc, and she thrust out her first sword.

Green Mountains, Snowy Pines, and Daylight Break Open; Surging Sword River Descends from Heaven.

The Heavenly River formed by the combined brilliant Sword Light flowed through the battlefield, instantly annihilating incoming attacks. The Consciousness Demon entrenched in the surrounding Void Consciousness Domain also instantly decreased by one-third.

But that wasn't enough, so Bai Qiuran changed his sword stance and unleashed his second sword technique.

Sword Extremity Amid Vast Mist and Waves, I recognize my hometown as the dawn birds fly by.

The Sword Qi spread out, transforming into a vast expanse of smoke, which condensed on the open surface of the Heavenly River in the first move. Within the smoke, the Sword Light condensed into a pure white bird, which spread its Wings and soared across the Milky Heavenly River of Sword Light, leaving devastation in its Void.

The combined power of Bai Qiuran's first and second sword moves instantly annihilated the entire Consciousness Demon Army entrenched near the Consciousness Barrier.

The Energy Wave spread outwards, and deep within the distant Consciousness Domain, several terrifying thoughts, no less powerful than those of Immortal Emperor, began to stir. However, Bai Qiuran had already withdrawn from the Consciousness Domain. With a thought, his boundless Spiritual Sense burst forth, transforming directly into a vast expanse of white light, blocking the gap in the Consciousness Domain.

These Consciousness Demons are immortal and indestructible. Even if Bai Qiuran completely annihilates them, as long as the will of the living beings still exists, they will regenerate at the Consciousness Domain in a short time.

More importantly, if this breach isn't plugged, the Consciousness Domain inside will also erode this world, giving birth to new Consciousness Demon within it. At that point, the trouble will never end.

After doing all this, Bai Qiuran, carrying Bai Li's Souls, returned to the Ironclad Ship that was hovering in the Void.

The Central Immortal Emperor approached with his entourage and cautiously asked, "Grandmaster, how is it?"

Bai Qiuran opened her palm and showed him the shrunken Souls of Bai Li inside. Just now, the Universe in the Palm exerted some force, seemingly knocking out the weakened Souls of the First Immortal Emperor.

Upon seeing this Souls, the Central Immortal Emperor was overjoyed. He raised his arm and loudly commanded, "Return!"

The armored soldiers on the Ironclad Ship moved about in an orderly fashion, maneuvering the ironclad airship to slowly turn around and head upstream along the Void River.

Their actions remained meticulous and orderly, but Bai Qiuran sensed a positive and uplifting quality in them, as if life had suddenly become full of hope again.

"It seems you're quite popular."

Bai Qiuran glanced at the disciple's Souls in her palm and said softly.

Outside the Imperial Palace Platform in the Central Immortal Realm's Great Luo Heaven, a Vortex Spatial Gate opened, and the Ironclad Ship slowly returned to the Imperial Palace Platform.

The steps were lowered, and Bai Qiuran and the Central Immortal Emperor were the first to step down from the Ironclad Ship and enter the high platform in the city. They found that the medical officers had begun to collect the tools and medicinal herbs, indicating that the routine maintenance for Bai Li's body had been completed.

Upon seeing Bai Qiuran and the Central Immortal Emperor return, the Lotus Empress and the Red Dust Immortal Elder hurriedly came to greet them. Bai Qiuran asked them, "How long have we been gone?"

It's been three months.

The Red Dust Immortal Elder replied, "This place will be closing soon."

The Great Luo Heavenly Imperial Palace Terrace can be considered a war relic. After the last War Against the Consciousness Demon, in order to protect the physical body of the First Immortal Emperor, the Central Immortal Emperor gathered the surviving elites of the Central Immortal Realm and set up a giant Formation here. Since then, the Great Luo Heavenly Imperial Palace Terrace has only opened once every thirty-six years, and each time it is opened for three months. During these three months, the medical officers of the Immortal Realm use the time to maintain Bai Li's physical body and prevent his corpse transformation from deepening.

Unless the same formidable lineup is assembled as before, the Immortal Emperor present will find it difficult to reverse this Formation.

"Master, how is your matter progressing?"

The Lotus Empress to the side, asked with some anticipation.

Bai Qiuran opened his palm, displaying Bai Li's Souls before him. Seeing the small golden light floating in Bai Qiuran's palm, Lotus Empress covered her mouth, and two lines of tears immediately streamed down her face.

"Suppress his body."

Bai Qiuran said, "I will put his Souls back."

So the Red Dust Immortal Elder and the Lotus Empress Throne led the physicians back to the high platform. Together with the Central Immortal Emperor, three Vast Sea Realm Three Immortal Emperor- level experts, and a group of Immortals at the Azure Sea Realm, they all exerted their full strength to reinforce the Restraint Magic Array on the Throne. The golden light in the patterns on the throne instantly transformed into Light Ropes, binding Bai Li's body heavily to the Throne, almost making him look like a rice dumpling.

Bai Qiuran awakened Bai Li's Souls in her hand, and carrying his Souls, she walked step by step to his body, reaching out to press his Souls into his flesh.

As soon as the Souls entered the body, Bai Li's body began to struggle wildly. After tens of thousands of years, his soulless body had actually died long ago, forming an Immortal Emperor Corpse with its own Consciousness. Now that the Souls wanted to return to the body, the body naturally resisted.

However, a Consciousness driven solely by violent instincts is clearly no match for Bai Li's Souls. Even in a weakened state, Bai Li quickly suppressed the physical body's resistance, calming its violent outburst.

The First Immortal Emperor's physical body sat quietly on the Throne for another half an hour. Finally, his Souls took over the body again. Starting with the little finger of his left hand, the body made slight movements, and then he slowly opened his eyes.

"It's been so long since I've felt this way."

Bai Li, holding onto the armrest of the Throne, slowly stood up amidst the excited expressions of the crowd.

"This feeling of having a physical body, of being able to truly feel your feet touching the ground."

He clenched his fist, then slowly bowed to Bai Qiuran, who was standing in front of him.

"Thank you for saving me, Master."

"Um."

Bai Qiuran nodded, then said to him, "Don't be too happy. You don't have much time left. You know what you need to do now, right?"

"I know."

Bai Li nodded.

That's good.

Bai Qiuran nodded in satisfaction. "I'll grant you five hundred years in another identity. After five hundred years, you must enter Reincarnation. Don't forget, you are actually dead now."
