In Min Qin's eyes, Chen Lingxi's figure, casually standing on the mountaintop, suddenly became incredibly tall.

The unimaginably terrifying essence almost transformed into a surging aura that bloomed in the Void, filled with immense power.

In that instant, Chen Lingxi's figure was as tall as a mountain!

Even though Min Qin was standing in the clouds and looking down at the entire Sun-Watching Peak, she still felt that Chen Lingxi was standing much higher and farther than her.

Min Qin took a deep breath, a serious expression appearing on her usually cool face.

"What kind of Divine Ability is this?"

"Moreover, this person is radiating such powerful energy; could he be a body cultivator?"

She pondered in her heart, Dao Origin spiritual light flashed in her eyes from time to time, as if she were sensing Chen Lingxi's cultivation level.

However...

Nothing was gained.

She couldn't see through Chen Lingxi's cultivation level, nor could she fathom the depth of his Chen Lingxi Dao Origin, let alone know what kind of Divine Ability Chen Lingxi cultivated.

Having achieved Dao Foundation Realm in the Dao within the Dragon-Offering Sect and safely become an elder of a peak, Min Qin naturally knew that he should be cautious when facing enemies he could not see through.

Min Qin then narrowed her eyes slightly, and suddenly became rotten.

The thick fog drifted in, containing abundant Dao Origin and various murderous intent intents.

But at this moment, the drifting thick fog completely obscured Min Qin's figure.

Chen Lingxi stood on the mountaintop, her arms hanging casually, her long sleeves fluttering in the mountain wind.

He gazed at the thick fog.

A few breaths passed, Chen Lingxi suddenly flicked his finger, instantly unleashing dozens of Azure Edge Method that shattered the thick fog in the mountain sea of clouds.

Min Qin had disappeared; she seemed to have vanished.

Cheng Shiyan and the others standing nearby also sensed the aura emanating from Chen Lingxi, and their expressions varied.

For example, Hua Liuli, the youngest of the group, was initially surprised by the aura and pressure emanating from Chen Lingxi, but then couldn't help but show her joy.

"Master Changle Le's friend seems to be much stronger than the elder of Azure Pool Peak."

Her two ponytails hung down behind her head, and her eyes sparkled.

Cheng Shiyan and Ning Ya both showed delight in their eyes.

Only Zhu Qingjian seemed to still have concerns.

"This senior's cultivation is extraordinary, which is naturally a good thing..."

However, Yellow Luminary Peak, or Azure Pool Peak, does not only have one Dao Foundation Realm cultivator.

She pondered in her heart.

Chen Lingxi had already restrained his Heaven-Inviting Might aura, and his gaze remained fixed on the distant sea of clouds.

Then...

Zhu Qingjian and the others then heard Chen Lingxi ask, "Where is Yellow Luminary Peak then?"

Why would the senior ask about the location of Yellow Luminary Peak?

Several people were puzzled.

Cheng Shiyan dared not be negligent. He looked towards the southeast of Sun-Watching Peak, where the sea of clouds stretched out and many towering mountains could be seen breaking through the clouds, standing in the middle like islands in the sea.

"Yellow Luminary Peak's territory is much larger than Sun-Watching Peak's, and it has 42 mountains under its command, with probably more than a thousand ordinary cultivators."

Flying 1,800 li from there, you will see a Bamboo Mountain, and from there lies the location of Yellow Luminary Peak."

Cheng Shiyan pointed to the sea of clouds in the distance. "And the main peak of Yellow Luminary Peak is not hard to find. There are two Fourfold Profound Spirit Vein on the main peak, and the Spiritual Qi is extremely abundant."

At the foot of Yellow Luminary Peak, there are many ordinary cultivators who hope to become disciples of Yellow Luminary Peak.

Chen Lingxi nodded slightly, then raised her head to look at the high sky and clouds.

The clouds drifted away, layer upon layer, but there was nothing strange about them.

Chen Lingxi then frowned slightly and asked softly.

"I've heard that in the Dragon-Offering Territory there's Cauldron-Artifact Immortal Ranking Dragon-Transformation Immortal Ranking, which is a transformation of the Cauldron Immortal Ranking, but I don't know where that Immortal Ranking is?"

Zhu Qingjian replied, "Senior, the Dragon-Offering Territory Dragon-Transformation Immortal Ranking of Fenglong Territory is located in the eyes of the Profound Dragon statue in the Dragon-Offering Main Sect."

"If there are any changes to the Dragon-Transformation Immortal Ranking, the Profound Dragon statue will open its eyes and reveal the Dragon-Transformation Immortal Ranking."

Profound Dragon statue?

Chen Lingxi suddenly remembered that he had once visited the Dragon-Offering Main Sect and seen the Profound Dragon statue.

The statue was ferocious, its dragon-like power overwhelming, almost turning into a thick fog that enveloped the surrounding area for thousands of miles.

When he saw the statue, the Profound Dragon had indeed not opened its eyes.

Chen Lingxi, then suddenly touched his sleeve, and in an instant, clouds mixed with lightning gathered beneath his feet.

"Where are you going, Senior?" Hua Liuli asked nervously, probably fearing that Chen Lingxi would just leave.

Chen Lingxi was about to answer when she suddenly looked at the sea of clouds in the distance.

Within the sea of clouds, several beams of light shone brightly, transforming into pillars of light that shot forth.

The vast sea of clouds was carved into furrows by these pillars of light, while at the same time, a rather heavy fluctuation of spiritual energy emanated from those pillars of light.

Hua Liuli and Ning Ya's expressions changed instantly!

"It is Zhang Chuzhi of Yellow Luminary Peak, the person in Yellow Radiance Peak who is closest to the Dao Foundation Realm."

Cheng Shiyan's expression remained unchanged. "Besides him, there are seven or eight other Yellow Luminary Peak disciples, who are probably here for us."

Zhu Qingjian's expression remained unchanged.

The sheer number of Yellow Luminary Peak disciples arriving so quickly suggests they've come to kill. It seems Yellow Luminary Peak already knows Liu Changle is dead and is eager to reap the rewards from Sun-Watching Peak.

In the past, if these people had encountered such a life-or-death ordeal, they would have felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

But at this moment, they were completely unafraid.

This is because there is a Dao Foundation Realm cultivator on this Sun-Watching Peak today.

Zhu Qingjian was about to speak, a dazzling light suddenly shone from the lightning and mist beneath Chen Lingxi, and Chen Lingxi transformed into a beam of light and shot out.

In an instant, the vast sea of clouds suddenly split open.

Chen Lingxi stood on the cloud with his hands behind his back, then stretched out his hand, joined two fingers together to form a sword, and gently slashed down at the several beams of light that were breaking through the air!

In an instant!

A thunderous sound suddenly boomed, followed by an incomparably powerful Sword Qi bursting forth from Chen Lingxi's fingertips.

The Sword Qi was originally extremely subtle, but when it left Chen Lingxi's fingertips and leaped into the sea of clouds, Sword Qi instantly became enormous.

From a distance, it looked as if a bolt of lightning, hundreds of feet long, was tearing through the sea of clouds and slashing towards the Void!

Rumble!

An overwhelming power erupted at that moment.

It was as if a god wielding thunder had struck down with tremendous force!

When this Sword Qi suddenly struck down, it seemed as if all the clouds in the Void were cut down by countless tiny sword lights!

The sea of clouds, spanning hundreds of feet in radius, and the several pillars of light that had just entered the area were all swallowed up by this Sword Qi.

Immediately afterwards, a cloud of blood mist exploded from the sea of clouds!

Chen Lingxi remained standing atop the lightning-filled clouds, traversing the sea of clouds and the blood-red mist, soaring southeastward until she vanished in the blink of an eye!

The many Yellow Luminary Peak disciples who were originally heading towards Sun-Watching Peak, and even the Yellow Luminary Peak figure who was closest to the Dao Foundation Realm, all turned into blood mist!

The terrifying beams of light that had soared through the sea of clouds had all dimmed and disappeared.

The clouds then closed in.

Chen Lingxi had already disappeared into the horizon.

The four disciples on Sun-Watching Peak remained silent for a long time before exchanging bewildered glances.

"Senior, did you kill so many disciples of Yellow Luminary Peak with a single sword strike?"

Ning Ya suddenly asked a question.

"Even Dao Foundation Realm cultivator could easily kill so many cultivators from the third level of the Heavenward Third Floor with a single sword strike."

Having clashed with Yellow Luminary Peak for a long time, they naturally knew that the cultivators within the pillar of light were all of extraordinary cultivation.

Even Dao Foundation Realm cultivator would likely be unable to kill so many powerful figures with a single sword strike.

not to mention...

"That senior unleashed a Thunderclap Sword Light, and these people were cut down before they could even react... Judging from this, Senior Spirit Bearer's cultivation is probably much stronger than that of Uncle-Master Changle, and even the Sect Master."

Cheng Shiyan maintained a calm demeanor, but his eyes betrayed his excitement.

"But..." Hua Liuli suddenly spoke up, "Senior went southeast, could it be that he went to Yellow Luminary Peak?"

Three Dao Foundation Realm cultivators in Yellow Luminary Peak!

Wouldn't it be extremely dangerous for someone like you to go alone?

Zhu Qingjian pondered for a moment and then slowly shook his head, "The lives of those at the Dao Foundation Realm stage are precious, and you, senior, know the importance of this."

He's probably just going to investigate; he'll probably return to Sun-Watching Peak soon."

Everyone nodded.

Cheng Shiyan to check on the sea of clouds where the blood-red mist had not yet dissipated.

"Yellow Luminary Peak must be furious that so many of his disciples have died."

This senior seems to have a rather impulsive temperament; once he returns, we probably won't be able to stay on this Sun-Watching Peak any longer."

Ning Ya suddenly swallowed, his voice thin, his face pale, and his eyes revealing a hint of fragility. "We are waiting here for you, senior... but if you do not return, and instead the cultivators from Yellow Luminary Peak come here again, what should we do, senior brothers and sisters?"

Everyone fell silent.

It wasn't until Cheng Shiyan spoke up that he said, "Just as Junior Sister Zhu said, the fate of the Dao Foundation Realm cultivator is precious. If Spirit Bearer is not confident, he naturally wouldn't go to Yellow Luminary Peak to investigate."

Since he was willing to make a special trip here, he naturally wouldn't bother to visit this place, so he ignored the Sun-Watching Peak.

"Let us... wait here."

The others nodded.

Cheng Shiyan gazed into the direction Chen Lingxi had left, but he said nothing...

Now that things have come to this, if Yellow Luminary Peak becomes enraged and Dao Foundation Realm expert comes after them, even if they leave Sun-Watching Peak and flee to a distant place, they probably won't be able to escape the pursuit of the Dao Foundation Realm Establishment expert.

In that case, we might as well place our hopes on Senior Spirit Bearer Master.

The four people stood atop the Sun-Watching Peak, in front of several Sun-Watching Peak halls, gazing at the sea of clouds to the southeast.

Amidst the sea of clouds, a rainbow suddenly appeared, and occasionally a few cranes could be seen flying across the sky.

But in their eyes, neither the rainbow nor the cranes appeared as dark and gloomy as the sea of clouds in the mountains.

"Senior... will you return safely?"

Zhu Qingjian pondered this.

--

Chen Lingxi rode away on a cloud, and after flying for about two thousand miles, he finally saw a rather peculiar hill.

The hill was not particularly high, and it had no jagged rocks or clear streams, but it was covered with dense Green Bamboo.

The Green Bamboo were brimming with Spiritual Qi, yet there seemed to be sharp, piercing energy emanating from them.

The green Green Bamboo covering the mountains and plains seemed to form a grand array, brewing something.

"These Green Bamboo seem to be treasures."

It seems to belong to Yellow Luminary Peak.

Chen Lingxi thought for a moment, then a gleam suddenly appeared in her eyes. She then stretched out a palm and clapped Void!

In an instant, all the spiritual energy within a radius of a thousand feet was completely plundered by Chen Lingxi.

The plundered spiritual energy, along with Chen Lingxi's incredibly thick Dao Origin, transformed into a handprint hundreds of feet in diameter.

It is the Heaven-Seizing Seal!

A mysterious aura rose from the Heaven-Seizing Seal, and numerous runes shone brightly.

The Mystic-Realm Heaven-Seizing Seal is several times more powerful than the ordinary Heaven-Seizing Seal. In addition, with the blessing of Chen Lingxi's Dao Origin, the thunderous energy from the Dragon-Stripping Dao Platform Profound Thunder-Prison Profound Root Unfinished Thunder burst forth and fell into the Heaven-Seizing Seal.

Instantly, the Heaven-Seizing Seal transformed into a deep blue, crackling lightning color, with bolts of lightning flashing within it.

Chen Lingxi stood calmly on the cloud.

The Heaven-Seizing Seal crashed down, landing on the Bamboo Mountain.

Instantly, the green Green Bamboo covering the mountain burst forth with a sharp aura, sharp as swords, piercing towards Chen Lingxi's Heaven-Seizing Seal.

Unfazed, the Heaven-Seizing Seal swept past the Sword Qi before finally grasping it.

With a single grasp.

The Green Bamboo on the hillside suddenly fell off in waves and was caught in the Heaven-Seizing Seal!

With the Green Bamboo in hand, Chen Lingxi an eyebrow.

He could clearly sense that these Green Bamboo were incredibly hard and full of Spiritual Qi.

"These Green Bamboo are indeed treasures. If we could extract the Mystery Mechanism of these green Green Bamboo covering the mountains and forge a precious sword, it should be extraordinary, no less than my Abyssal Heaven Spirit Sword."

A slight smile appeared on Chen Lingxi's lips as she manipulated the Heaven-Seizing Seal to uproot all the Green Bamboo covering the mountain.

He wasn't in a hurry; in fact, he deliberately slowed down, glancing at the distant sky from time to time.

As if waiting for something.

Until all the green Green Bamboo covering the mountain was uprooted by Chen Lingxi, and then the Heaven-Seizing Seal was placed on the handprint and hung beside Chen Lingxi.

Chen Lingxi's gaze shifted slightly as she looked towards the distant horizon.

But then, at the edge of the sky, amidst the swirling clouds, two figures appeared.
