Chaoge City.
Di Xin learned of the great battle in the North Sea at once.
Di Xin said, "Hmph, I knew there was definitely a conspiracy behind this."
"Yuan Futong of the North Sea led the seventy-two feudal lords in rebellion—there must be some force secretly fanning the flames."
"Now even Kunpeng, the Demon Race's Demon Master, has been stirred."
"It seems everything was planned. Yuan Futong's rebellion in the North Sea was meant to keep Grand Preceptor Wen tied down there."
"With Grand Preceptor Wen absent from Chaoge, they can carry out the next step of their plan."
At Nuwa Palace, Nuwa was explaining matters concerning the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation to the Guanghan Fairy and the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden.
Suddenly, Nuwa Sage turned her gaze toward the North Sea, shock filling her eyes.
The Guanghan Fairy and the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden asked in confusion, "Master, what is it?"
Nuwa Sage said, "I sent Nine Infants to the North Sea because I wanted Nine Infants to eliminate Wen Zhong."
"I never expected Nine Infants to encounter a terrifyingly powerful enemy in the North Sea and be severely wounded in an instant!"
"What? Nine Infants was severely wounded?"
"What was the cultivation realm of that terrifying enemy?" the Guanghan Fairy and the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden cried out.
Nuwa said, "Peak Quasi-Saint."
The Guanghan Fairy said in shock, "Peak Quasi-Saint???"
"Who exactly is that peak Quasi-Saint expert?"
Nuwa shook her head. "I do not know who it is either."
The Guanghan Fairy and the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden said, "Master, Nine Infants has been severely wounded. Hurry and bring him back!"
Nuwa Sage said, "There is no need. Someone has already gone."
The Guanghan Fairy and the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden hurriedly asked, "Master, who went?"
Nuwa Sage said, "Demon Master Kunpeng!"
Upon hearing that Demon Master Kunpeng had gone, the Guanghan Fairy and the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden were relieved.
Demon Master Kunpeng's cultivation had long since reached the peak Quasi-Saint realm.
If the Primordial World had not been limited to only six Heavenly Dao Saints, then with Demon Master Kunpeng's cultivation, had he possessed Primordial Violet Qi, he would have attained the Heavenly Dao Saint realm long ago.
At present, the Primordial World had quite a few peak Quasi-Saint experts. As long as they possessed enough Primordial Violet Qi, they could all attain the Heavenly Dao Saint realm.
At Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain, Yuanshi Tianzun was telling the Twelve Golden Immortals about entering the tribulation.
Suddenly, a look of surprise appeared on Yuanshi Tianzun's face.
Seeing Yuanshi Tianzun's expression, the Twelve Golden Immortals were filled with confusion.
Guangchengzi asked, "Master, what is it?"
Yuanshi Tianzun said, "Nuwa sent Nine Infants to the North Sea, but he was severely wounded by a mysterious expert."
"Now Demon Master Kunpeng, who was in seclusion deep within the North Sea, has been disturbed."
The Twelve Golden Immortals said in shock, "Master, we recall that Nine Infants seems to be in the Quasi-Saint realm!"
Yuanshi Tianzun said, "Correct."
The Twelve Golden Immortals said, "Even with Nine Infants's Quasi-Saint cultivation, he was severely wounded."
"What cultivation does the mysterious expert who severely wounded Nine Infants possess?"
Yuanshi Tianzun said, "Peak Quasi-Saint."
The Twelve Golden Immortals said in shock, "Master, what did you say?"
"Peak Quasi-Saint???"
"Where did this mysterious peak Quasi-Saint expert come from?"
"Master, do you know who he is?"
Yuanshi Tianzun shook his head. "I do not know."
The Twelve Golden Immortals asked, "Master, will that mysterious expert affect the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation?"
Yuanshi Tianzun said dismissively, "What influence could a mere peak Quasi-Saint have on the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation?"
"Unless it is a Heavenly Dao Saint, or an expert in the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin realm."
"Otherwise, beneath the Heavenly Dao Saint realm, no one can alter the course of the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation!"
The Twelve Golden Immortals nodded.
The Investiture of the Gods Tribulation had been decreed personally by Dao Ancestor Hongjun, to be carried out by the six Heavenly Dao Sages.
How could a powerhouse at the peak of the Quasi-Sage Realm possibly contend against the six Heavenly Dao Sages?
Afterward, Yuanshi Tianzun no longer paid attention to the battle in the North Sea.
At the same time, the Supreme Purity Sage of the Eight Views Palace, as well as Daoist Jieyin and Daoist Zhunti of the Western Sect, all learned of the battle in the North Sea.
Western Sect.
Beneath an incomparably enormous tree, Daoist Jieyin and Daoist Zhunti sat facing each other.
Daoist Zhunti said, "Senior Brother, should I go and convert that mysterious powerhouse of the North Sea?"
"Our Western Sect is sorely lacking powerhouses at the peak of the Quasi-Sage Realm to bolster our disciples."
Daoist Jieyin shook his head. "Junior Brother, do not act rashly."
"Let us first see who that mysterious powerhouse truly is before making any plans."
Daoist Zhunti said, "Senior Brother, what are you worried about?"
Daoist Jieyin said, "Junior Brother, now that the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation has begun, all heavenly secrets have been obscured."
"Before we understand the situation, we should not strike lightly, lest we fall into someone's scheme."
Daoist Zhunti said, "Senior Brother, you are far too cautious!"
"In the entire Primordial World, aside from Dao Ancestor Hongjun,"
"The Supreme Purity Sage, Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Sage, and Nuwa Sage are all Heavenly Dao Sages just like us."
"Who could possibly do anything to the Western Sect?"
Daoist Jieyin said, "Junior Brother, it is still better to be cautious."
Daoist Zhunti's face was full of helplessness. He nodded and said, "Yes, Senior Brother."
Afterward, Daoist Zhunti continued watching the developments of the battle in the North Sea.
Chaoge City.
Di Xin was considering whether to send Di Chen and Di Xiao to the North Sea.
Just then, the system's voice rang out in Di Xin's mind.
System: "Ding! The system has issued a mission. Host, completely kill Nine Infants. Upon completing the mission, the host will be rewarded with one bottle of Pangu's blood essence!"
Upon hearing the system's reward, Di Xin rose directly from his seat.
Di Xin said, "What?!"
"One bottle of Pangu's blood essence?"
"System, did I hear that correctly?"
System: "The host did not hear incorrectly."
Upon receiving the system's confirmation, Di Xin was beside himself with excitement.
He then transmitted his will to Di Chen and Di Xiao.
Di Chen, who was searching for treasures in the Buzhou Mountains, immediately gave up his treasure hunt.
Di Xiao, who was searching the East Sea for Yingzhou Island and Fangzhang Island, also gave up searching for the two islands.
In the void above the North Sea.
Just as the man in the white mask was shocked by the disturbance caused by Demon Master Kunpeng, a figure sped out from the depths of the North Sea and arrived in the void dozens of kilometers away from him.
The man in the white mask saw an elderly man dressed in black, his face stern and imposing.
The man in the white mask knew that this was Demon Master Kunpeng of the Demon Race.
At this moment, Demon Master Kunpeng was glaring furiously at the man in the white mask.
Kunpeng roared, "Hmph! You have quite the nerve, daring to slaughter members of my Demon Race?"
"Who gave you such monstrous audacity?!"
The man in the white mask said coldly, "Hmph, Kunpeng, what a lofty tone you have?"
"You and I are in the same realm. Do you think I would fear you?!"
Kunpeng sneered. "Hmph, the same realm?"
"I am a peak Quasi-Sage powerhouse who has been renowned throughout the Primordial World for ages."
"Where did some nameless nobody like you crawl out from?"
"You think you are worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as me?"
The man in the white mask said coldly, "Hmph, Kunpeng, you sure have a lot of nonsense to say. Do you dare fight beyond the heavens?"
Kunpeng sneered. "Why would I not dare?!"
After saying that, the white-masked man and Kunpeng vanished together.
Seeing the white-masked man leave with Kunpeng, Nine Infants looked coldly at Wen Zhong.
His face brimming with murderous intent, Nine Infants said, "Wen Zhong, this time, let's see who can still save you!"
With that, Nine Infants prepared to burn his origin blood essence and return to his peak.
Just then, a terrifying fist imprint and a terrifying palm imprint struck down at Nine Infants simultaneously!!!
