Ye!
He was a man with an indistinct figure, standing proudly between heaven and earth. An ancient cauldron hovered above his head, cascading mother qi and gleaming with the radiance of the Nine Immortal Golds.
He stood motionless, as though exchanging a gaze with He Xian across countless ages, unfathomably profound, conveying mysteries and information beyond words.
"I finally found you, Mas-"
Clang!
A bell tolled across that battlefield, as though shaking the river of time and disturbing the stability of past, present, and future. Another man was speaking, his back turned to all living beings as his great bell rang on and on.
He was casting a technique, acting together with that Heavenly Emperor to push a cauldron into a passage. Fragments of time scattered like raindrops.
Inside were two drops of supreme blood.
With a sigh, another Female Emperor appeared, peerless in her splendor. An Immortal Artifact in her hand transformed into a sword, a ring, and a mask, blazing with supreme radiance. She, too, struck toward that passage, helping the cauldron fly over.
Pfft!
This drop of blood merged into He Xian's brow.
He Xian sat cross-legged and entered a deep state of enlightenment.
Several more days passed before he left this deadly place.
Immortal Ancient was far from peaceful. Heaven and earth shuddered violently, and numerous lesser thousand worlds shook as though they were about to break apart.
"What happened?" someone asked in alarm.
"It's been going on for several days! The sect leaders outside are coming in! They're about to breach Immortal Ancient! Run!" Countless people panicked.
The supreme experts of the outside world were descending upon Immortal Ancient, and the repercussions were bound to be far-reaching.
Meanwhile, beyond the Three Thousand Provinces, things were also unsettled. Visitors from Beyond the Heavens had arrived.
