Five-colored Daoist energy rapidly swirled in Li Qingshan's eyes.

His Innate Immortal Fetus, with its inherent connection to the myriad principles of heaven and earth, allowed him to instantly determine that a direct confrontation was not the best course of action.

The laws of this realm still exert their suppression, and the opponent is casting spells from a distance, their true form unknown. It would be unwise to get entangled here.

"The Five Elements revolve, escape!"

With a thought, his body suddenly erupted with a brilliant yet not dazzling Five-Colored Divine Light.

White, blue, black, red, and yellow—five colors of light flowed endlessly, transforming into the most fundamental principles of the Five Elements, enveloping his body.

In the Shrouding the Heavens Universe, Li Qingshan's Five Elements Escape Light is already at the highest speed of its kind.

Although suppressed and rejected by the laws of this realm, the innate Five-Colored Divine Light is of extremely high quality.

It was almost at the very source of the Great Dao, forcefully disrupting the surrounding Void that had been sealed by holy light!

"Sizzle!"

A sharp sound, like brocade being torn, rang out.

That space, solidified like divine iron, gleaming with runic barriers.

The Five-Colored Divine Light light actually tore open a tiny, constantly twisting slit.

Beyond the crevice lies a chaotic Void current.

Li Qingshan's figure transformed into an almost illusory five-colored flowing shadow, no longer bound by the distance of the material world.

In the nick of time, it came from between those giant fingers that seemed capable of crushing stars.

Or, to put it another way, it's that one in a billion chance of entering the Void through the gap between the gates of life when the Holy Light Law flows.

In an instant, a spatial jump was completed, escaping thousands of miles away!

Almost the instant he disappeared, a giant hand of holy light, imbued with boundless purifying and destructive intent, slammed down!

"Boom!!!"

A deafening roar, like the sky collapsing and the earth splitting apart, echoed from the continuous mountain range and the seemingly endless earth below.

It was as if an invisible giant hand had wiped it directly off the canvas of the world.

It left behind a huge palm print that was bottomless, with smooth, mirror-like edges, and was filled with rising white mist and wisps of holy flame.

The palm print retained a scorching and pure purifying holy power, and the violent energy there formed a forbidden zone.

It is doubtful that any life will emerge within the next hundred years.

Li Qingshan felt as if he had been stuffed into a constantly spinning and squeezing drum.

The Five-Colored Divine Light protecting his body clashed fiercely with an omnipresent and powerful force of rules, producing a teeth-grinding "sizzling" sound.

Before my eyes was a bizarre and distorted scene, as if time and space had been shattered and then haphazardly pieced back together.

After an unknown amount of time, the suffocating feeling of pressure suddenly eased.

"Puff!"

Like a stone spat out, he stumbled and fell out of an unstable spatial rift, landing on unfamiliar land.

Beneath their feet lay hard, dark red rock, and the air was filled with a mixture of energies: a thin but pure power of light, the lingering echoes of violent thunder, and the deep, heavy energy of the earth.

There was even a faint hint of bloodshed and resentment.

He quickly steadied himself, his black robes fluttering without wind, and five-colored Daoist energy rapidly flowing in his eyes.

The Innate Immortal Fetus, with its instinct to interact with the myriad laws of heaven and earth, was operating at full power, attempting to decipher the laws of this unfamiliar world.

"Such powerful suppression, such chaotic laws."

Li Qingshan frowned, his face slightly pale.

Having forcibly crossed the boundary, and then faced strong rejection and suppression from the laws of this realm, his current state was not at its peak.

The laws governing this world are exceptionally active, even bordering on "violent."

The interaction with the outside world is far more direct and intense than that of the Shrouding the Heavens Universe, but it is also filled with a certain indescribable "exclusivity".

"The person who made the move from a distance was at least at the King level, and seemed to be able to mobilize even stronger power of heaven and earth in this realm."

Li Qingshan was still shaken, and at the same time, he was filled with vigilance towards the world.

This world is far from a benevolent place.

He concealed all his presence, minimizing his own surreptitiousness, and moved through the desolate and rugged mountains like a shadow.

He cautiously probed outwards with his divine sense, and the information that returned weighed heavily on his mind.

The energy properties of this region are extremely complex, clearly indicating that it has experienced numerous major battles.

Residual energy storms and spatial rifts were everywhere, and the laws of nature appeared fragmented.

"I need to find a safe place as soon as possible to recover and learn about this realm."

He was determined never to easily provoke trouble.

This godforsaken place looks like it'll be plagued with trouble from the start.

However, trouble often comes knocking on your door.

Just as he was passing over a valley with jagged rocks, violent energy fluctuations and shouts came from behind the mountain pass ahead.

"Your spirit will never leave!"

Li Qingshan cursed under his breath and instinctively tried to walk around it.

His divine sense subconsciously swept across the area, and he saw on the other side of the mountain pass, two figures of light were fiercely fighting against five blood-red figures, retreating as they fought.

The people who escaped were a man and a woman.

The man was tall and athletic, with dazzling blond hair and a handsome, resolute face.

Its eight wings were surrounded by pure yet slightly dim holy light.

He wielded a holy sword whose light flickered intermittently, and his cultivation level was approximately at the early stage of the First Heaven of the Immortal Platform.

The woman appeared to be in her early twenties, tall and slender, with a wild and beautiful face and slightly elongated ears.

It was surrounded by a fierce and demonic aura, yet strangely intertwined with the power of light.

Their cultivation levels are comparable, both at the early stage of the First Heaven of the Immortal Platform. Judging from their origins, they seem to be related to the God-Devil Ape Clan.

Pursuing them were five angels with blood-red wings!

Unlike the holy angels that Li Qingshan had sensed before.

These guys reeked of blood, their pupils were bloodshot, and they wielded menacing blood-red scythes and bone swords, exuding a chilling aura.

The leader was the strongest, reaching the mid-stage of the First Heaven of the Immortal Platform, while the other four were all at the early stage of the same Immortal Platform.

The blond man's swordsmanship was powerful and sweeping, radiating holy light, yet it couldn't hide his fatigue.

He already had several wounds on his body, from which flowed blood tinged with gold.

The ape woman wielded a jet-black iron rod with ferocious power, combining demonic energy with holy power to barely maintain her strength, but she was clearly struggling to keep up.

" Sacred Battle Angel, surrender your Heart of Sacred Battle!" We'll give you a swift and painless end!

The leading Blood Angel had a hoarse and unpleasant voice. He swung his blood-red scythe, unleashing a crimson blade that tore through the sky, carrying a power that corroded the soul.

The blond man roared in response, "You fallen traitors to the light! How dare you covet the glory of my ancestors?"

The holy sword parried, unleashing a dazzling light, but was once again shaken, causing his blood to surge and blood to spill from the corner of his mouth.

The ape woman fought valiantly against the combined attack of the other two Blood Angel, her iron rod clashing with her bone sword.

Sparks flew, she groaned, her arm went numb, and she was in grave danger.

Li Qingshan simply observed coldly.

"Blonde Sacred Battle Angel?"

Blood Angel?

"Internal vendetta?"

He made a quick judgment and decided he had no intention of interfering.

He moved swiftly, intending to circle around from the side, treating himself as just a passing spectacle.

However, he didn't want to cause trouble, but trouble just kept coming after him.

Just as he moved stealthily, concealing his presence to the extreme, thinking he could safely evade the danger...

The leading Blood Angel's crimson gaze, sharp as a keen hawk, swept across his location.

Although Li Qingshan was extremely skilled in concealment, he was not in good condition and his laws were not yet fully integrated since he had just arrived in this world.

The subtle spatial ripples caused by that instantaneous movement still couldn't completely escape the perception of this Peak Eighth-Rank God King.

"Hmm? There's also a bug hiding its head and tail?"

The Blood Angel leader grinned, revealing a cruel and contemptuous smile. "Since we've stumbled upon them, let's eliminate them all to prevent future trouble! Kill!"

He didn't give Li Qingshan any chance to explain or leave.

In his view, anyone who is not of his kind and appears here could be an enemy; better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free!

At his command, the two Blood Angel beside him understood immediately and attacked simultaneously with sinister smiles!

"Laugh!"

"Laugh!"

Two condensed, blood-red chains, like venomous snakes emerging from their holes, instantly traversed endless space.

At the top of the chain was a hideous ghost head phantom, emitting a soul-devouring demonic sound, aiming straight for Li Qingshan's vital shoulders!

At the same time, another Blood Angel swung his crimson scythe, unleashing a crescent-shaped crimson blade of energy that blocked his escape route on the flank.

The attack was sudden and ruthless, clearly targeting him as someone who had to be eliminated!

"Hold!"

Even with his calm and collected nature, Li Qingshan couldn't help but curse inwardly at this moment.

This is a completely undeserved disaster! He just wanted to be a quiet passerby, but these red-haired bastards insisted on taking advantage of him!

Even a clay figure retains some earthy quality, let alone Li Qingshan, who once made a name for himself in the Big Dipper.

As the three attacks approached, the filthy and bloody aura was nauseating, and the soul-devouring demonic sound surged into his sea of consciousness, Li Qingshan's eyes instantly turned cold.

"Do you really think I'm easy to bully?"

He no longer concealed himself; his figure in black robes suddenly solidified, and a vast and boundless aura soared into the sky.

Despite being suppressed by this realm, it is still like a dragon emerging from the abyss!

My blood and energy surged to the heavens!

Facing the two soul-devouring chains that shot towards him, he neither dodged nor avoided them, but instead stretched out his hands.

Five-colored Dao patterns flowed between his five fingers, and he grasped the front end of the chain with incredible precision!

"Buzz!"

The filthy, blood-red light and soul-devouring demonic sounds clinging to the chains assaulted his palms and his sea of consciousness.

However, it was firmly blocked by the Five-Colored Divine Light, emitting a violent friction sound.

Li Qingshan's arm trembled, unleashing a tremendous force that circulated the Five Elements, obliterating all laws!

"Snap!"

Those two blood-red chains, powerful enough to pierce through metal and erode divine power, were actually crushed inch by inch by him.

It vanished, turning into countless crimson specks of light!

At the same time, the crescent-shaped blade of energy slashing horizontally was already close in.

Li Qingshan snorted coldly, and his right leg lashed out like a dragon's tail, striking the side of the blade's energy with deadly force!

"Bang!"

With a dull thud, the sharp, scarlet blade energy was shattered by his kick.

The explosion created a chaotic stream of crimson energy that scattered and impacted, corroding the rocks below and creating craters.

In the blink of an eye, Li Qingshan neutralized the combined attack of three Intermediate Eighth-Rank God King and Blood Angel of the same rank.

His stance was as steady as a mountain, and his cold gaze swept over his opponent.

This caused not only the three Blood Angel who had attacked to change their expressions slightly.

Even the blond man and the ape woman who were fighting, as well as the Blood Angel leader, showed surprise.

They never expected that this seemingly insignificant "passerby" would possess such formidable strength!

"You've got some skill, no wonder you dared to spy!"

The Blood Angel leader's eyes darkened further, his killing intent intensifying instead of diminishing. "Attack together! Kill him first! We can't hold back any longer!"

He realized that Li Qingshan was a variable and had to be eliminated as a priority.

Suddenly, apart from the Blood Angel who continued to restrain the blond man and his wife, there was no one else present.

The four Blood Angel, including their leader, all set their sights on Li Qingshan!

Four Blood Angel at least at the Intermediate Eighth-Rank God King, one of whom is at the Peak Eighth-Rank God King.

At the same time, a murderous aura erupted, and the combined bloody pressure was almost tangible.

The air in the valley thickened, filled with a nauseating stench of blood.

" Blood Sea Domain!"

The leader of the Blood Angel roared, and the four of them connected with a blood-red light, instantly creating a blood-red domain covering several miles in radius.

Within the domain, waves of blood surged, and countless twisted, vengeful spirits swirled and howled in the sea of blood.

The powerful suppressive force acting on Li Qingshan not only slowed down his movements.

It further eroded his protective divine light and defiled his magical power.

"Troublesome area!"

Li Qingshan felt a heaviness around him, and the flow of his divine power was slightly affected.

These Blood Angel might not be his match one-on-one, but when they joined forces, especially in this strange domain, they couldn't be dealt with quickly.

"Kill!"

Four blood-red figures, like ghosts, increased their speed within the Blood Sea Domain, launching a fierce attack on Li Qingshan from different directions!

The Blood Angel leader's crimson scythe transformed into a terrifying blood rainbow, slashing straight down at Li Qingshan's head.

Before the blade even arrived, the sharp killing intent already stung the skin.

On the left, a Blood Angel brandished his bone sword, unleashing countless fine, blood-red sword energies that rained down like pear blossoms, enveloping Li Qingshan's major acupoints.

On the right, another Blood Angel formed a hand seal, and several giant pythons made entirely of tainted blood burst forth from the sea of blood, opening their massive jaws to bite.

Behind him, the last Blood Angel swung his chains, lashing them like a poisoned whip towards Li Qingshan's back.

Runes flashed on the chains, specifically designed to break through protective auras.

Faced with this attack from all sides, Li Qingshan took a deep breath, and the five-colored light in his eyes surged to its maximum.

"The Five Elements revolve, impervious to all laws!"

He let out a low shout, and the Five-Colored Divine Light surrounding his body was no longer merely for protection.

Instead, it expands outward like a tide, forming a relatively independent five-colored halo.

Within the halo, the Five Elements Dao evolve and rotate on their own, carving out a "pure land" of their own within the Blood Sea Domain.

At the same time, he joined his right fingers like a sword and unleashed the White Emperor Metal Sovereign Slash.

The incomparably sharp Geng metal energy condensed into a dazzling platinum sword aura, meeting the torrential rain of blood-red sword energy.

"Jingle bells"

A series of sharp, rapid sounds, like rain, followed as the platinum sword energy precisely shattered each incoming blood sword.

The aftershocks of the sword energy even rebounded, forcing the Blood Angel on the left to parry with his sword, leaving his arm numb.

He faced a blood-red scythe falling from above and a poisonous whip and chain lashing out from behind.

Li Qingshan suddenly spun around, and a five-colored halo around his body rotated, like a giant millstone.

" The Five Elements Great Millstone!"

"Boom!"

The crimson scythe struck the Five-Colored Great Millstone, unleashing a blinding light and a violent energy shock.

The halo trembled violently, yet it withstood the full force of the attack from the first level of the Immortal Platform!

At the same time, the poisonous whip chain lashed against the rotating millstone.

Like being whipped on a high-speed spinning grinding wheel, Mars flew everywhere, and most of the blood-red runes on the chains were worn away.

The chains themselves groaned under the strain and rolled back.

With a single strike, Li Qingshan, relying on his exquisite Five Elements Daoist techniques and formidable cultivation, managed to withstand the combined attack of four experts of the same level!

However, his expression became even more serious.

The power of these Blood Angel is sinister and vicious, extremely corrosive. If the battle drags on for too long, another old guy might come along.

"Good lad! Let's see how long you can last!"

The Blood Angel leader was both shocked and enraged, and its attacks became even more frenzied.

The four Blood Angel worked in perfect harmony, their attacks like a tidal wave, one after another, giving Li Qingshan no chance to catch his breath.

Li Qingshan pushed the Great Dao of the Five Elements to its limit, Five-Colored Divine Light around his body was like a boiling ocean, resisting the erosion of the Blood Sea Domain.

Relying solely on the Five Elements Divine Abilities to quickly defeat four equally powerful individuals under their domain suppression would be extremely difficult.

His mind raced, and his tactics changed instantly.

Faced with the dense crimson sword energy attacking from the left, he no longer countered with the Metal Sovereign Slash.

Instead, he made a sweeping motion with both hands in front of his chest, and an incredibly refined, black-and-white Yin-Yang Dao Diagram instantly appeared.

It rotates slowly, emanating a Daoist aura that obliterates all laws and harmonizes Yin Yin-Yang.

"Hiss hiss hiss!"

Countless sharp, blood-red sword energies shot into the Yin-Yang Dao Diagram, only to disappear without a trace.

The blood and resentment on it were quickly decomposed and neutralized by the Yin-Yang and yang energies.

Ultimately, it dissipated as pure primordial energy, failing to shake Li Qingshan in the slightest.

"What?"

The Blood Angel on the left was taken aback; his killing move had been so easily neutralized.

At the same time, a giant python formed from filthy blood on the right side lunged at them, its stench filling the air.

A fierce glint flashed in Li Qingshan's eyes, and his right fist suddenly erupted with boundless light and heat, as if he were holding a miniature Sun!

" Sun Emperor Fist!"

Extremely yang and powerful, it can burn away all the wilderness!

He unleashed a punch, the blazing golden fist light erupting like the fire of the Sun god.

With its magnificent divine power to purify all the filth in the world, it instantly evaporated the filthy giant python into nothingness.

The scorching wind from the punch swept towards the Blood Angel on the right, forcing him to let out a strange cry.

His body rippled violently with crimson light as he retreated in a disheveled state, the edges of his blood-red wings even showing signs of scorching.

And then, facing the most powerful crimson scythe descending from above, wielded by the leader of the Blood Angel.

Facing the poisonous whip and chains that were being pulled from behind, Li Qingshan took a deep breath, his divine power surging, and formed hand seals.

With his left hand holding the " Human Emperor Seal," a majestic aura of ruling over the mountains and rivers and benefiting all living beings emanated from him.

It drew upon the surrounding earth's energy, transforming it into a thick, dark yellow barrier.

It forcefully blocked the sneak attack of the poisoned whip and chains. The chains struck the barrier with a dull thud, but could not break through.

His right hand is forming the " Heaven-Overturning Seal "!

A terrifying aura suddenly descended, a sense of " Heaven-Overturning, shattering the universe with a single palm, and holding the destruction of the Three Realms in one's hand"!

This artistic conception, concentrated in his palm print, caused the Void around his right fist to begin to distort and collapse.

It seemed unable to withstand this destructive force.

With the force of his " Heaven-Overturning Seal," he fiercely met the descending blood-red scythe!

"Boom!!!"

This clash was far more intense than any before!

The destructive intent of the Heaven-Overturning Seal clashed violently with the killing law of the Crimson Scythe.

It erupted with a light bright enough to blind an ordinary person and a deafening roar.

The energy storm exploded in a ring shape, temporarily forcing back the sea of blood below and creating a huge depression.
