A first glimpse of the Demon Realm

Seeing the provocation, the Giant Bird in the sky let out a sharp cry, folded its wings, and swooped down.

The giant ape's eyes shot out red light, like two lanterns. With a roar, it uprooted a tree that was tens of meters tall, grabbed it with both hands, and swept it away.

In an instant, the two giant beasts clashed, the battle raging fiercely. The Giant Bird moved like Lightning, its wings whipping up Gale that snapped trees and sent rocks flying.

The giant ape possessed immense strength and agility, leaping hundreds of feet into the air with a sudden burst of speed. Towering trees danced in its hands, leaving afterimages, as if Ape Demon had been reincarnated.

Gu Yuanqing has a certain feel to it, like something out of a blockbuster movie from my past life.

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the Giant Bird, struck by a stick and seemingly seriously injured, finally flapped its wings and flew away.

The giant ape stood atop the mountain, pounding its chest with its fists, and roared loudly in the direction the Giant Bird had flown away, as if to demonstrate its power.

Suddenly, it seemed to sense Gu Yuanqing's gaze, turned its head and stared at the Cliff, letting out another angry roar.

Then it saw that Gu Yuanqing had not avoided its gaze. Having just won a great victory, how could it resist? It ran wildly on all fours and leaped up when it got close to North Spring Mountain.

Gu Yuanqing raised an eyebrow. This monkey's temper was far too volatile!

In the blink of an eye, a giant hand materialized, swung through the air, and struck the giant ape squarely on the head. The giant ape, which was more than ten feet tall, flew backward and tumbled down the mountain, smashing countless trees.

Its thick skin and tough flesh prevented it from being seriously injured. It rolled a few times on the ground, got up, tucked its tail between its legs, turned around and ran away. It didn't dare to look back until it was quite far away.

Gu Yuanqing chuckled. He was just a beast; there was no need to bother with him.

Suddenly, he noticed that the Monkey King in the Mountain was staring blankly at the giant ape's departing figure. After it had completely disappeared, it looked down at its own hands.

Gu Yuanqing smiled, then immersed himself in the state of Mountain Observation, sending a thought through the Heart Seal Technique into the consciousness of the beasts in the Mountain.

This is no longer the Floating World of the past. Once considered the overlords, they could probably be killed by any wild beast if they came to this world.

Moreover, the Outer Realm Demon Realm may not be suitable for them to survive from the Floating World.

"Looks like we'll have to feed them with the game we catch again, otherwise these mountains will be in chaos again."

Gu Yuanqing suddenly activated the Heavenly Fishing, Fishing Line dangled into the mountain Cloudmist. He felt that he had broken through space and fallen into the same familiar area as before. The Rules within the Cloudmist had not changed because North Spring Mountain had fallen into the Demon Realm.

He stood on the Cliff for a while, then suddenly used his movement technique to arrive at the foot of the Front Mountain and stood in front of the Memorial Archway leading into the mountain.

This is the boundary between the inner and outer parts of Beiquan Mountain. Looking out from here, what appears to be the familiar foot of the mountain is now towering trees that are noticeably taller than the trees in Beiquan Mountain.

As Gu Yuanqing stepped out from the Memorial Archway, he immediately sensed a change in the surrounding atmosphere. A cold and violent aura filled his body, attempting to invade it.

The Dao Fire ignited on his body, driving away the Demonic Qi. He could feel the Dao Fire and the Demonic Qi touching, like water and fire touching, causing an instant change and dissolving into each other.

Gu Yuanqing frowned slightly, and then the North Spring Mountain Phantom rose up, slowing down the rate at which his True Essence was consumed.

"I must quickly figure out how North Spring Mountain transforms Demonic Qi into Spiritual Qi, otherwise I won't dare to leave the mountain. Once I step outside, all the Empowerment will disappear. Even though my True Essence is abundant and far surpasses that of Cultivator at the same level, I still dare not enter this land without source."

Although Gu Yuanqing has no immediate plans to leave North Spring Mountain, it is always better to be prepared.

Just as he was pondering this, a pack of Wild Wolf the size of calves emerged from the darkness, their green eyes fixed on Gu Yuanqing as if they had spotted a delicious meal.

In the distance, it seemed that ferocious beasts sensed Gu Yuanqing's presence and were heading towards this place.

Gu Yuanqing was not surprised. Just like when he Heavenly Fishing, the bait formed from his Dao Resonance would be detected in no time. Filled with True Essence and Spiritual Qi, he was like a bonfire burning in the dark night in this Demon Realm, extremely bright.

With a thought, the Demon Subduing Sword flew out from his Storage Bag at his waist. He poured in his True Essence, and the sword shone brightly. He made a Sword Art and activated the Sword Control Technique he had just learned.

Under the shimmering Sword Light, in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen Wild Wolf were all killed.

Gu Yuanqing sheathed the Demon Subduing Sword, feeling that the Swordsmanship technique was slightly weaker than in the Floating World, because here he would not receive the help of the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy, but instead had to expend his True Essence to resist the invasion of Demonic Qi.

Seeing the ferocious beasts gathering in the distance, Gu Yuanqing retreated back into Within North Spring Mountain.

The situation here is unclear, so we dare not make a fuss. Although North Spring Mountain is reliable, there are bound to be powerful figures in this Demon Realm. Who can guarantee that North Spring Mountain can withstand them?

Gu Yuanqing stood at the mountain gate for a while. Once he entered North Spring Mountain, no Outer Realm could sense his presence anymore. North Spring Mountain itself had an ethereal aura and was not conspicuous in this Demon Realm. Only by observing with the naked eye or touching it with Divine Sense could one perceive the difference between this mountain and the Outer Realm.

A Devil Beast broke into North Spring's Boundary Domain from another direction, and its figure flashed by, passing directly through the other side of North Spring Mountain.

Seeing this, Gu Yuanqing felt somewhat relieved. At least for now, as long as he stayed within Within North Spring Mountain, he was still safe.

Suddenly, he sensed a group of people approaching North Spring Mountain, but all he could see was a dark forest.

But he immediately realized that it was because a wisp of his mind was focused on Mountain Observation, and he sensed the scene in the Floating World.

It happens to be in the same position as what the naked eye sees, which is why this illusion occurs.

He was completely absorbed in Mountain Observation when he saw the eunuch named Little Li and Zhang Zhuo leading a group of Soldiers carrying a lot of supplies toward the mountain pass Memorial Archway.

Gu Yuanqing stood quietly in place, watching, also wanting to see if the current Floating World could pass through this gate to Mountain.

Zhang Zhuo and the young eunuch, who were at the forefront, stepped into the Memorial Archway and in the next second passed through North Spring Mountain to the other side. Fortunately, Gu Yuanqing used the power of North Spring Mountain to hold the two of them back, otherwise they would have fallen headfirst into the ravine behind.

The Soldiers following behind the two were stopped in their tracks by Gu Yuanqing using his Object Control Power.

Gu Yuanqing fell silent for a moment, somewhat disappointed. It seemed that although he could sense the Outer Realm for the time being, he could not truly communicate with the Outer Realm.

"No, perhaps there is another way!"

In the blink of an eye, he activated the Heavenly Fishing Method, and a stream of True Essence tore through the Void, sweeping in all the Soldiers' loads.

He then slowly said, "I have accepted these things. In the future, any items sent into the Mountain can be left at the mountain gate. I will be in seclusion in the Mountain for cultivation recently, and will be activating the mountain gate Array Formation. Eunuch Li, General Zhang, and the soldiers must not enter casually to avoid any accidents."

The voice was transmitted directly to everyone's minds using the Heart Seal Technique.

Zhang Zhuo and Little Li, who were placed on the flat ground, bowed and said yes. There was a hint of disappointment in their eyes. This was a rare opportunity to enter the Immortal Mountain.

Gu Yuanqing used his Object Control Art to transport the items he had brought into the Mountain to various locations on the mountaintop. He did not linger at the foot of the mountain, but turned back and went to the side courtyard on the mountaintop.

Although Aunt Feng had received Gu Yuanqing's telepathic message, she was still uneasy. Upon seeing Gu Yuanqing, she quickly came out and gestured to inquire what had happened.

Gu Yuanqing smiled slightly and said using the Heart Seal Technique, "Auntie, don't panic. Just think of it as going to a different place to enjoy the scenery. Just do as usual, but please don't go down the mountain."

After giving instructions to Aunt Feng, he prepared to return to his courtyard. Suddenly, he saw in the distance, in the forest, towering trees fell to both sides, and in the middle, a Giant Python was slithering. Its eyes were like big lanterns, and there were two small bumps on its head, like dragon horns that had not yet grown.

The hissing sound carried far, and the surrounding beasts sensed its presence and scattered in all directions.
