The Netherworld Bone Supreme retreated, but the oppressive atmosphere in the void did not completely dissipate. The divine senses of the various Supremes crisscrossed in the air, probing and guarding against each other before slowly retracting.

The Prodigies from all sides were still shaken. Under the reception of their elders or fellow disciples, they transformed into streaks of light and hastily left this place of trouble, fearing that the Netherworld Supreme would return or stir up further trouble.

The ancient ship of Eastern Xuan Academy floated in the void. Lu Xuanchen, standing at the bow, watched as Xuanyuan Che and the other three returned safely. Especially Xuanyuan Che, who was unharmed and whose aura seemed even more unfathomable, a look of undisguised astonishment and complexity flashed in his eyes.

He flicked his sleeve, and a gentle Profound Clear Immortal Light enveloped the four, instantly bringing them onto the deck of the ship.

"It's good that you're back," Lu Xuanchen said, looking at the four. His gaze finally settled on Xuanyuan Che, his tone carrying a hint of relief that was hard to detect. "You... did very well in this Battlefield."

He had intended to say "too conspicuous," but thinking of Xuanyuan Che's terrifying strength in directly taking a blow from a Supreme, he swallowed the words. This monstrous disciple of his was no longer someone he could restrain or judge.

"The Prefect overpraises me. It was merely my duty," Xuanyuan Che nodded slightly, blinking.

Yun Mengyao, Mu Qingxue, and Lei Mingjian also stepped forward to pay their respects. Lei Mingjian grinned. Although he didn't speak, his face clearly conveyed the expression of "we guys are really strong."

Lu Xuanchen nodded and said no more, urging the ship forward. The ship let out a melodious Dao resonance, tore through the void, and sped towards the Eastern Wasteland Domain.

Inside the quiet cabin.

"Junior Brother, you..." Yun Mengyao cast a soundproof barrier, her beautiful eyes looking at Xuanyuan Che with unprecedented solemnity. "Your physique, is it... the Chaos Dao Body?" After fusing with the Star God Fruit, her spiritual senses became even sharper, and she could feel the power within Xuanyuan Che, vast like the universe and like the origin of all things.

But she wasn't sure, as her Junior Brother's physique seemed far more terrifying than the Chaos Body described in records.

Xuanyuan Che glanced at her, neither admitting nor denying, and simply smiled, "Whatever Senior Sister Mu thinks it is, then it is."

He then said, "We've drawn too much attention in this Battlefield. The Netherworld Clan will not let this go. The Netherworld Bone Supreme was just the beginning. Those forces in the Central Continent might not do anything openly, but in secret, countless eyes are watching us, especially... me."

His tone was calm, yet he pointed out the crucial issue. The temptation of the Chaos Body was too great, enough to make many ancient Dao traditions take desperate measures. Moreover, he had also offended Burning Heaven Valley and Heavenly Palace Academy, killing their Saint Kings.

"Why should we fear them!" Lei Mingjian grunted. "If one comes, we'll beat him; if two come, we'll beat them both! If we can't win, we still have Junior Brother to hold the line!"

Yun Mengyao gave him a playful glare and mused, "What Che'er said is very true. The priority now is to return to the Academy as soon as possible. The Academy is protected by an ancient grand formation, which even Supremes cannot easily break. And..."

She looked at Xuanyuan Che. "The Prefect just sent me a telepathic message. A few ancient existences deep within the Academy wish to meet you."

Xuanyuan Che's eyebrows twitched slightly; he wasn't surprised. The value and potential he had displayed were enough to attract the attention of Eastern Xuan Academy's true foundation.

"It's fine, it's good to meet them," he said calmly.

Just as Eastern Xuan Academy's ship traversed the void, returning to the Eastern Wasteland, news about the Myriad Races Battlefield had already swept across the entire Three Thousand Dao Domains like a storm!

"The Netherworld Clan invaded the Battlefield, intending to sacrifice Prodigies to welcome the Crown Prince's arrival!"

"Eastern Xuan Academy's Xuanyuan Che defeated a Saint King with one punch and annihilated the Netherworld Crown Prince's clone with a flick of his finger!"

"The Chaos Body has appeared! It withstood a blow from the Netherworld Bone Supreme without defeat!"

"The Earth Ranking has drastically changed! Xuanyuan Che's name has directly ascended to the top spot!"

"Wait, Xuanyuan Che's name has disappeared from the Earth Ranking again, what's going on?"

Explosive news spread wildly through various channels, causing colossal waves.

The Chaos Body! This was a supreme physique that only existed in ancient legends, suspected to originate from the Upper Realm! And it appeared in the barren Eastern Wasteland Domain? And belonged to a disciple of an unknown academy?

Countless major powers were shaken. Ancestor-level figures were awakened from their slumber and ordered to investigate all information about Xuanyuan Che at all costs.

The Central Continent, in particular, was in turmoil.

Within Burning Heaven Valley and Heavenly Palace Academy, roars of fury from their ancestors could be heard, vowing to make Xuanyuan Che pay with blood. However, they maintained a strange silence in the short term, as if brewing something.

True Martial Academy, Ice Snow Holy Palace, Vajra Academy, and other top powers, however, developed great interest in Xuanyuan Che, their attitudes ambiguous.

And on a floating immortal island shrouded in mist and with flying cranes, an ancient jade tablet inscribed with the words "Heaven Ranking" stood silently. On the tablet, names flickered with brilliant divine light, representing the true peak existences of the younger generation in the Three Thousand Dao Domains. They had long surpassed the scope of the Earth Ranking, each possessing terrifying strength to fight against Saint Realm experts, and were candidates for future Supremes and even True Immortals.

At this moment, the Heaven Ranking, which had not changed for a long time, suddenly flashed with spiritual light and auspicious colors, before returning to calm after a while...

A few days later, on the warship.

As Xuanyuan Che emerged from his meditation, he saw Yun Mengyao waiting outside, her expression slightly different from usual.

"Second Senior Sister, is something wrong?" Xuanyuan Che asked.

Yun Mengyao nodded slightly, raising her delicate hand. Two different communication talismans appeared in her palm, one surrounded by ethereal starlight, the other emitting a faint scent of peach blossoms.

"Eldest Senior Brother and Fourth Senior Sister have sent messages back," she smiled. "They both seemed to have sensed the changes within the Battlefield, especially the commotion you caused, Che'er."

"Oh?" Xuanyuan Che's interest was piqued. He hadn't even met that mysterious Eldest Senior Brother yet.

Yun Mengyao first activated the starlight talisman. No sound came from the talisman, but it projected a subtle starlight that intertwined in the air to form two ancient characters imbued with Sword Intent:

Okay.

After this single character, the starlight slowly dissipated, with no further information.

Xuanyuan Che was slightly stunned, then chuckled. This Eldest Senior Brother, Jun Moxie, was truly as his name suggested, stingy with words and possessing a high demeanor. The single word "可" contained multiple meanings, perhaps approval, perhaps anticipation of a battle, fully displaying his aloofness and confidence as a Heaven Ranking Prodigy.

Yun Mengyao seemed accustomed to this and explained, "Eldest Senior Brother has always been like this. He's likely in some secret realm, making communication difficult. This single word indicates that he has noticed you and acknowledges your strength."

Next, Yun Mengyao activated the peach blossom talisman. First, a cheerful and slightly seductive pipa flourish came from the talisman, followed by Liu Ruyan's familiar voice, a blend of charm, surprise, and exaggerated tone:

"Little Che'er! My good Junior Brother! You've really brought me so much face!"

Her voice was jubilant, as if one could imagine her eyes curving with excitement in Hundred Flowers Valley.

"One punch for each Saint King? Tsk tsk tsk, if I had known you were so powerful, I should have made you water all the flowers in the valley with immortal dew back then! Oh hehehe~"

Her words were still playful, full of teasing and jest, but the pride and affection in her tone were palpable, completely the tone of a senior sister immensely proud of her younger brother.

"But it's fine to be impressive out there, just don't use that Chaos Qi to block me from doting on you when you're back, okay, Senior Sister? I've composed a new tune, Rainbow Skirt Dancing Immortal, and I need a handsome listener like you, Junior Brother! If you don't understand it... hehe, my Hundred Flowers Valley is short on a little flower farmer to catch bugs~"

Her words ended with her signature light laugh, and then the transmission cut off.

Listening to that familiar voice, Xuanyuan Che's mind conjured the image of his Fourth Senior Sister, her presence fragrant and her smile blooming like a flower. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curve into a smile that was both helpless and amused.

This Senior Sister's way of showing care was always so... unique.

Yun Mengyao watched his reaction, a hint of amusement flashing in her eyes as she explained, "Ruyan is like that. The happier and more she values someone, the less serious she is with her words, always finding ways to tease people. She's overjoyed right now, probably wishing she could return immediately to see you with her own eyes."

The Eastern Xuan Academy's airship, after several days of traversing the void, finally arrived in the Eastern Wasteland Domain, slowly sailing into the blessed land where the Eastern Xuan Academy was located.
