"No wonder the [Shepherds '] former leader, that Glutton, always wanted to take over this place."

Bai Qiuran stroked his chin and said, "This power is indeed terrifying, perhaps even more terrifying than the Heavenly Dao taking all its worlds with it in a self-destruction... and... book... wait, I suddenly have a somewhat immature idea."

He looked at the center of that dazzling Vortex, where the energy was so great that even the strongest Shepherds would be torn to shreds if he entered.

"Can I complete my Foundation Establishment in this most dangerous place in the Void?"

"Master."

Seeing this, Tang Ruowei grabbed his belt warily.

"Don't even think about any crazy tricks like 'jumping in to Foundation Establishment.' I won't allow you to do something that's certain to lead to certain death. You should use that Time Barrier to cultivate step by step. You'll be able to establish your Foundation Establishment steadily."

"I know, I know."

Bai Qiuran raised her hands, saying helplessly, "I won't jump in."

Despite his words, Tang Ruowei still refused to let go. The two stared at each other for a minute before Tang Ruowei finally let out a cold snort and released him.

"Why are you being so meddlesome..."

Bai Qiuran muttered under her breath, "How will your spouse handle it after you get married?"

He felt a little disappointed. According to Old Bai's usual temperament, if he saw a place like the Void Source, he would definitely jump in without saying a word or even taking off his clothes. However, now that he was a husband and father, he had more to consider before doing anything that would put him in danger.

At the same time, he couldn't act recklessly during this period. If Bai Qiuran jumped into the Void Source and got trapped, the Shepherds might really wipe out the Immortal Realm civilization area.

"Let's go check out the vicinity of the Void Source."

Bai Qiuran spoke, she manipulated the Clear Autumn Waters to slowly approach the dazzling Vortex in the Void.

Wisdom Immortal excitedly dangled around on his belt, while Tang Ruowei warily watched Bai Qiuran's back, in case he suddenly had a change of heart and jumped into the Void Source.

Upon approaching the Void Source, a powerful suction force immediately emanated from it. Bai Qiuran quickly steadied herself and simultaneously supported Tang Ruowei behind her.

"This thing is really strange."

Wisdom Immortal stared intently at the Void Source, which was so close at hand.

"It's releasing energy outwards while simultaneously absorbing energy scattered within the Void. The attraction and repulsion forces coexisting in the same place is truly strange."

"If it weren't for the fact that it's the most dangerous place in the void, it wouldn't be worthy of being called the most dangerous place in the Void."

As Bai Qiuran responded, his gaze swept across the Void near the Void Source. After a moment, his eyes lit up, and he rode his sword, carrying Tang Ruowei and Wisdom Immortal, to a wondrous platform.

The platform was a Crystal- like continent, floating in the Void.

"Master, what is this?"

Upon seeing the translucent Crystal, Tang Ruowei clearly made a connection to something.

"Yes, this must be a place left behind by the Shepherds."

Bai Qiuran pointed to the Light Filaments within the Crystal Continent and said, "Look, that's a unique power of the Shepherds. They must have been here before... But I haven't found Shepherds around here, so they probably haven't come here yet."

He circled the Crystal Continent. There was nothing like an altar on the Crystal Continent, but considering the Shepherds' lax style, their so-called "ritual" was probably just a quick trip here.

The most important part of the Hunting Ritual " is definitely the "hunting" and the "patrol," not the "ceremony" itself.

Bai Qiuran took out a Beacon and threw it onto the Crystal Continent.

The Crystal Pillar extended its sharp foot and pierced the Crystal Continent with a crack, but failed to penetrate and slipped, falling to the flat surface.

Bai Qiuran had to use his sword to cut several holes in it beforehand so that the Beacon could be secured with its pointed feet, fully extended, and begin transmitting signals.

This is the last one.

Seeing that the Beacon was working properly, Bai Qiuran breathed a sigh of relief.

Once the Shepherds arrive here and let the Beacon self-destruct, that will mark the beginning of the countdown to war between the Immortal Realm and the Shepherds.

Seeing that he had finished all this, Tang Ruowei quickly said, "This is the last task, right? Master, let's leave here quickly. Should we go back or what?"

"Hmm... the original plan was to return."

Bai Qiuran looked to the other side, where there was also a dazzling Void River, stretching into the endless Void like a ribbon of light. Nearby, there were worlds of all sizes.

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "But now I'd like to go to the other river to see where the Shepherds have gone."

"Then let's go."

Tang Ruowei said.

She's willing to go anywhere as long as she leaves the vicinity of this Void Source.

When Bai Qiuran arrived, although he kept saying, "I won't jump in, I won't jump in," his actions betrayed him. While searching for the Shepherds, he frequently looked towards the Void Source, appearing very eager.

Tang Ruowei was genuinely terrified. What if, while passing by the Void Source, Old Bai suddenly leaped over the Dragon Gate and entered the Void Source?

Putting aside the possibility of something happening to Bai Qiuran, which would be difficult for her to explain to her family, if Old Bai were to jump in, Tang Ruowei certainly wouldn't be able to hold on so close to the Void Source on her own.

The Void Source, the most dangerous place in the Void, is no joke. So far, only the Shepherds race has been able to leave a mark here. Only Bai Qiuran so extraordinary that he was able to withstand the suction force of the Void Source and bring Tang Ruowei and Wisdom Immortal in.

If Old Bai jumps into the Void Source, Wisdom Immortal is utterly useless. Even if Tang Ruowei summons her Consciousness Demon Clone, it will be of no use.

After hearing Tang Ruowei's words, Bai Qiuran back repeatedly, reluctant to leave, and led her and Wisdom Immortal away from there, heading towards another Void River in the Void.

The two followed the Void River downstream, and when they reached about the middle section, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared ahead of them.

Countless Spatial Fragment are slowly drifting in the Void. Things inside have lost the protection of the World Barrier and are gradually being worn down by the violent energy in the Void. Meanwhile, the Material World that should have existed in abundance nearby is now mostly intact.

Bai Qiuran moved forward, she immediately sensed an incredibly powerful Energy Wave emanating from the distant Void. This force even shattered the Void, creating countless irregular new spaces, which were then crushed by the next wave of Energy Wave.

It appears that a battle is underway.

He led Tang Ruowei and Wisdom Immortal quickly downstream, where they saw a battlefield raging.
