Walking Right into the Net!

The spaceship sped along, cutting through the air at breakneck speed.

During this time, Song Wen and Jiang Wanyue became accustomed to the changing concentrations of miasma and also witnessed many ferocious beasts and poisonous insects within the Fengdu Poison Sea.

Six months later.

The spaceship suddenly slowed down.

This is because the world ahead has already been swallowed up by the Origin Qi.

To the right of the spaceship was a sky full of green miasma, and in front of it was an omnipresent expanse of pitch-black Origin Qi; as for the right front, the two had already met.

However, the Origin Qi truly lived up to its reputation as an existence capable of devouring all the energy in the world. Wherever it went, the miasma was completely dissolved. Even in areas near the Origin Qi, the concentration of miasma was significantly and drastically reduced.

"The Source-Qi Death Domain of High-Heaven Immortal Domain has actually spread to such an extent! I'm afraid it won't be long before it engulfs the entire Fengdu Poison Sea and heads towards the heart of Purple Star Immortal Domain." Jiang Wanyue exclaimed in shock.

Song Wen gazed upon the boundless Origin Qi.

Perhaps it was because he had ventured deep into the Source-Qi Death Domain so many times that he felt more at ease with the Origin Qi than with the miasma in the Fengdu Poison Sea.

However, at that moment...

Suddenly, the voice of the Shadow Void echoed in his Sea of Consciousness.

"Master, Human Race cultivators deep within the Source-Qi Death Domain."

"Human Race?"

Song Wen's brows gradually furrowed.

This place is already on the edge of the Purple Star Immortal Domain. Apart from the Fengdu Poison Sea covered by miasma, the Spiritual Qi in the vicinity is already thin, and almost no one comes here on ordinary days.

Why are there cultivators active within the even more desolate Source-Qi Death Domain?

Shadow Void added, "Master, they are not Human Race cultivators, but Evil Spirit Cultivators. I sensed the aura of the Blood Servant Contract within them."

"How many people are there? What is their cultivation level?" Song Wen asked in his Sea of Consciousness.

"There are eight people in total. The leader is a Late Lingxu Dao Immortal Stage cultivator. There are also three Mahayana stage and four Tribulation Transcendence stage. They are heading this way, Master," Shadow Void said.

"Then there's no rush. Let them come to us."

After responding in his Sea of Consciousness, Song Wen turned to Jiang Wanyue beside him and said.

"Madam Jiang, control the spaceship and retreat ten or twenty thousand miles."

Why?

Jiang Wanyue asked, puzzled, but the spaceship had already retreated rapidly as Song Wen had requested.

"Guests have emerged from the depths of the Source-Qi Death Domain. If we get too close, we might scare them back," Song Wen said.

A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Wanyue's eyes.

Within her perception range, there were no living beings in the Source-Qi Death Domain, let alone Human Race cultivators.

She didn't ask any more questions.

The spaceship quickly retreated more than 20,000 miles and then hovered in mid-air again.

After a hundred or so breaths, Jiang Wanyue's expression suddenly hardened.

Thousands of miles away, a spaceship sped toward them.

There were eight people on the spaceship, led by a woman in the Late Lingxu Dao Immortal Stage realm.

This woman had a cold, sinister face and exuded a chilling, ghostly aura.

The female ghost cultivator also noticed Song Wen and his companion, and hurriedly controlled the spaceship to slow down.

But she didn't rush to leave. Instead, she gave a wink to the seven people behind her and then slowly approached Song Wen and his companion's spaceship.

"My name is Yu Qing. I greet you both." The female ghost cultivator greeted them from afar.

Seeing that Song Wen had no intention of responding, Jiang Wanyue had no choice but to reply loudly.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Yu Qing. I am Jiang Yue, and this gentleman beside me is my husband."

"So it's Fellow Daoist Jiang and your husband. The two of you are a loving couple, truly enviable." Yu Qing clasped his hands in a respectful greeting.

During the exchange of pleasantries, Yu Qing's spaceship slowly came to a stop, the two ships being no more than a hundred miles apart.

"Have you two come for the rare and heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the Fengdu Poison Sea?" Yu Qing asked again.

"That's right," Jiang Wanyue said.

The miasma in the Fengdu Poison Sea will weaken in a few months, so there's nothing to hide.

"I wonder why Fellow Daoist Yu and the other young friends ventured deep into the Source-Qi Death Domain?" Jiang Wanyue asked.

"We are from the Yu family of Yu Household of Myriad Plains Mountain, and they are all juniors of my clan. This time, I took them out to broaden their horizons and, incidentally, to kill a few Void Demons. This can be considered as doing my small part to maintain the immortal Immortal Realm and resist the invasion of the Void Race," Yu Qing.

"I see," Jiang Wanyue said. "You all understand the greater good."

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, you flatter me," Yu Qing said. "However, I feel an instant connection with Fellow Daoist Jiang and your husband. Would you be so kind as to invite them aboard for a chat?"

Yu Qing's invitation came as somewhat abruptly.

Jiang Wanyue hesitated and did not respond immediately.

"What you say, Fellow Daoist, is exactly what I was thinking," Song Wen replied with a smile. "In that case, my wife and I will respectfully comply."

After saying that, Song Wen took Jiang Wanyue's hand.

"Let's go. Fellow Daoist Yu has been so kind in inviting us; how could we refuse her kindness?"

Jiang Wanyue's eyes showed a hint of confusion, not understanding what Song Wen was up to this time.

Even if you want to get closer to the other party, there's no need to rashly board their spaceship. Instead, you should invite them onto your own spaceship and keep the initiative in your own hands.

Could it be...

He had taken a liking to Yu Qing.

However, Yu Qing's long-term practice of Ghost Dao Cultivation Method had resulted in a gaunt face and skin that was stained with ghostly energy, giving it a bluish-gray hue, making her completely unrelated to beauty.

So, did he have his eye on someone else in the Yu Household?

Jiang Wanyue's gaze swept over the group of people behind Yu Qing.

Unaware of Jiang Wanyue's wild thoughts, Song Wen had already taken her aboard Yu Qing's spaceship.

"We are honored by the presence of you two fellow Daoists. Please take your seats and try the special immortal wine and spiritual fruits of my Yu Household." Yu Qing said with utmost hospitality.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Yu Household had begun setting up tables and chairs on the deck and serving wine jugs, spiritual fruits, and other items.

"No need."

Song Wen's lips curled slightly, and he drew a sword with two fingers of his right hand, slashing through the air.

Immediately, a faint glint appeared, pointing directly at Yu Qing's face.

Yu Qing's pupils contracted sharply, but she did not appear too panicked, clearly having been prepared beforehand.

With a light step, a semi-transparent gray barrier materialized out of thin air, dividing the spaceship into two parts.

Song Wen and Jiang Wanyue were trapped inside the barrier.

"Clang!"

The ghostly light struck the gray barrier.

The barrier rippled slightly, but quickly returned to normal.

The ghostly light was sent flying backward by the shockwave—it was a dart no more than three inches long.

"I don't know whether to call you two stupid or arrogant, not only daring to board my spaceship, but also daring to launch a sneak attack on me!" Yu Qing stood outside the gray barrier, a smug smile on his face.

Behind her, seven cultivators at the Tribulation Transcendence and Mahayana stages also wore smiles.

Everything happened so fast that Jiang Wanyue still didn't understand what was going on.

Why did Song Wen board the other party's spaceship, and why did he attack without warning? And how did Yu Qing anticipate Song Wen's malicious intent?

But now is clearly not the time to dwell on these things.

She immediately summoned her natal flying sword, which was surrounded by Taiyin Cold Qi.

"Gu Huang, let's join forces and break this Confinement Formation first."

Song Wen, on the other hand, appeared extremely calm, showing no sign of panic at being imprisoned.

"Madam Jiang, I helped you onto the boat, and now you're trapped. Don't you have even the slightest resentment?"

Jiang Wanyue said, "I'm all yours now, what's a little danger? Besides, with our strength, we're quite confident we can break this situation."

Song Wen smiled, as if he wanted to say something more.

Yu Qing outside the barrier, was already furious.

"You two are about to die, yet you're still flirting. Do you really think this killing formation of mine is just for show?"
