Ancestral God Secret Realm, Flame Spacetime.

Endless magma surged across the land, and scorching flames turned the entire sky crimson.

Deep within the Flame Spacetime, a colossal beast, entirely crimson red, resembling both a lion and a tiger, and engulfed in flames, perched atop a volcano.

It was the Crimson Flame Beast.

As a darling of the Flame Law, the Crimson Flame Beast's cultivation method is very simple: devour flames.

The stronger the flames, the faster his strength increases.

At this moment, he was consuming the subterranean fire erupting from the volcano, his body ablaze with flames that emitted a chillingly high temperature.

"Brother Chiyan, Brother Chiyan!"

A rough voice came from afar.

The Crimson Flame Beast opened its eyes and saw a giant with an ice-blue body and a bear-like shape walking through the air.

That was the Glacier Giant, a member of the Special Lifeform Team, and he had a good relationship with the Crimson Flame Beast.

" Bing Chuan, didn't you dislike the environment of this Flame Spacetime? Why are you here?" The Crimson Flame Beast inhaled the Earth's core fire into its belly, but instead of continuing, it asked curiously.

"Hehe, I've come to have a drink with you!"

The Glacier Giant grinned, plopped down on the edge of the crater, and then, seemingly feeling the heat on his bottom, shifted to the side.

Once he found a suitable spot, he took out two jars of fine wine.

"Liquor?"

The Crimson Flame Beast shook its head and laughed, "I only like drinking lava, not alcohol."

"You rascal, you really don't know how to enjoy life!"

The Glacier Giant shook his head, opened a jar, and gulped down a few mouthfuls.

After he finished drinking, he said, "Just now in the Glory Secret Realm, Purple Rain Venerable was looking for you, saying he had something to discuss... Why didn't you leave an avatar in the Glory World, and why didn't you bring your Communication Token?"

"I need to concentrate when I'm cultivating, and only you keep bothering me... What did you just say? Purple Rain Venerable wanted to see me, and you came here to ask me to drink. Why didn't you say something so important sooner?"

"Hiccup... Sorry, I forgot. I was just thinking of having you drink with me."

The Glacier Giant grinned. "Lend me your Communication Token!"

The Crimson Flame Beast snatched the communication token hanging from the Glacier Giant's waist and then contacted Purple Rain Venerable.

"Boss Purple Rain, I am Crimson Flame Beast... What... I agree, I agree, I agree!!!"

A look of surprise flashed across the Crimson Flame Beast's enormous pupils.

He never expected that such a heaven-sent Supreme Treasure would fall into his lap—the great God Lord Xue You actually intended to take him as a disciple?

If Purple Rain Venerable hadn't told him this, he would never have believed that he had such good luck.

After ending the call, the Crimson Flame Beast tossed the token to the Glacier Giant and said, "I have urgent business to attend to and need to head back first. Do you want to come back with me?"

"Let's go back. The environment here is too unpleasant. I wouldn't have come here if I hadn't come to see you."

The Glacier Giant muttered.

"By the way, what did Purple Rain Venerable want with you earlier?"

"Great news! You'll see soon enough!!"

The Crimson Flame Beast patted the Glacier Giant's shoulder with its flaming hand, leaving a clear and distinct mark on the Glacier Giant's transparent, azure body. Then, it used its Metal Lifeform to activate the Divine Kingdom Teleportation, returning to its residence on Bauhinia Island...

The Primal Universe, a remote and Cosmic Secret Realm.

There is no environment as pristine as the Ancestral God Secret Realm here, only Endless starry sky and scattered stars.

Deep within the secret realm, a majestic treasure mountain floats suspended in the air.

Baoshan is entirely purple-gold in color, and its body is covered with strange purple vines and trees, exuding a rich sense of life.

This is the ancestral home of the Purple Wood Flood Dragon clan, Purple-Gold Mountain.

Purple-Gold Mountain contains abundant wood- Origin Energy and countless strange natural treasures. It is the sacred place for the Purple Wood Flood Dragon Purple Wood Flood Dragon Clan to cultivate, and most of the clan's survival resources come from this place.

However, at this moment, the outer area of Purple-Gold Mountain was occupied by three enormous figures.

Those three figures each possessed a powerful aura, radiating the unique pressure of Universe Overlord.

On the left was a giant, black, centipede-like insect with countless limbs dancing in the air, its blood-red compound eyes fixed on the direction of Purple-Gold Mountain.

In the center was a mantis-like Alien Race, its body entirely green, with two scythe-like forelimbs crossed in front of it, radiating a chilling sharpness.

On the right was a colossal beast, entirely black and resembling a scorpion, its tail held high, its stinger gleaming with a chilling green light. These were the three infamous Universe Overlord of the nearby star system.

Black Centipede Venerable, Green Scythe Venerable, and Black Scorpion Venerable.

Not long ago, three Universe Overlord suddenly appeared in this Cosmic Secret Realm, occupying half of the resources of Purple-Gold Mountain, causing great suffering to the Purple Wood Flood Dragon Clan.

However, the three of them were not satisfied and now wanted to take over the entire Purple-Gold Mountain for themselves.

Deep within Purple-Gold Mountain lies a palace woven from purple vines.

Dozens of figures gathered together, each possessing a formidable aura, the lowest being King-level Immortal.

The leader was an old man with purple skin and a dragon-like appearance.

"Chieftain, those Three Fiends have gone too far! We've yielded at every turn, but they keep pushing their luck. This time, we can't tolerate it any longer!"

One of the King-level Immortal spoke indignantly.

"They've already taken half of Purple-Gold Mountain's resources, and now they want us to give up the entire Purple-Gold Mountain!"

"Yes, clan leader! Purple-Gold Mountain is the ancestral land of our Purple Wood Flood Dragon clan, how can we give it to them?"

"Let's fight them!" The tribesmen were filled with righteous indignation and spoke up one after another.

"Shut up!"

Venerable Zi Ao let out a low shout, his voice tinged with weariness.

"What can you possibly use to fight them? The Three Fiends are all Universe Overlord, while our Purple Wood Flood Dragon clan only has me as a Universe Venerable. Even if I risk my life, three against one, I still can't defeat them. Do you want my Purple Wood Flood Dragon clan to be completely wiped out?"

"But, Chieftain..."

"No buts."

Venerable Zi Ao shook his head and sighed.

"While Purple-Gold Mountain is precious, it's insignificant compared to the lives of our people. Let them have it; we'll find another place."

The tribespeople fell silent.

They knew the chieftain was telling the truth.

Although the Purple Wood Flood Dragon Clan was not weak, it had absolutely no chance of winning against the threat of three Universe Overlord.

"Clan leader, is there really no other way?" the young Purple Wood Flood Dragon asked, his eyes filled with resentment.

"Way..."

Venerable Zi Ao gave a wry smile and shook his head.

"Unless a powerful figure is willing to stand up for us, but our Purple Wood Flood Dragon clan has no backing in the Primal Universe."

The tribespeople fell silent once more.

The young Purple Wood Flood Dragon clenched his fist.

He hated himself for being too weak to protect his people.

Just then, the Communication Token at his waist suddenly vibrated.

Purple Wood Flood Dragon looked down and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Is it Purple Rain Venerable?"

He was puzzled; what did Purple Rain Venerable want with him?

He took a deep breath and probed his consciousness into the token. After only a moment, an expression of disbelief appeared on his face. "What's wrong?"

Venerable Zi Ao noticed his unusual behavior and quickly asked.

"Chieftain..."

The young Purple Wood Flood Dragon raised his head, his voice trembling.

"Just now, Purple Rain Venerable from the Ancestral God Religion contacted me... He said... that Lord God Lord Xue You wants to take me as his disciple!"

"What?!"

The entire palace fell silent instantly.

Everyone stared wide-eyed at the Purple Wood Flood Dragon in disbelief.

Venerable Zi Ao stood up abruptly, his eyes filled with shock.

"You mean, the renowned God Lord Xue You of the Ancestral God Religion... wants to take you as his disciple?"

"Yes!"

Purple Wood Flood Dragon nodded emphatically, his eyes filled with excitement. " Purple Rain Venerable said himself shouldn't be wrong, right?"

" The God Lord Xue You... the Guardian Divine Lord of the Ancestral God Religion, could annihilate those Three Fiends with a single glance..."

Venerable Zi Ao muttered to himself, a hint of wild joy flashing in his eyes.

"This is an incredible opportunity for our Purple Wood Flood Dragon Clan!"

"Clan leader, I will go to the Ancestral God Religion immediately to pay my respects to our master and beg for his help in saving our Purple Wood Flood Dragon Clan!"

The young Purple Wood Flood Dragon quickly replied.

"Foolish! You've just become a disciple. How can you trouble the great God Lord Xue You with such a trivial matter?" Venerable Zi Ao shook his head.

"Then what will happen to our Purple Wood Flood Dragon clan? Are we really going to have to leave our ancestral land?" the young Purple Wood Flood Dragon asked anxiously.

"Haha, you've only lived for a few decades, your heart is pure, you don't understand these things... Do you still worry about the other Purple Wood Flood Dragon?"

Venerable Zi Ao said with a smile.

The young Purple Wood Flood Dragon turned his head to look.

The worry on the faces of his many clansmen had vanished, replaced by expressions of excitement. "Don't worry about the clan, hurry on your way, don't keep God Lord Xue You waiting!"

Venerable Zi Ao quickly waved his hand.

Purple Wood Flood Dragon nodded as if he understood, then left the palace.

As soon as he left, Venerable Zi Ao looked at another Purple Wood Flood Dragon and said, " Ao Xin, go over there and tell those Three Fiends that we are willing to give up Purple-Gold Mountain to them completely."

"Leader, are we really going to do this? Those Three Fiends are not to be trifled with!"

One of the Purple Wood Flood Dragon, who had been King Rank, hesitated.

"You're still too weak. You don't understand what the God Lord Xue You's disciples represent. Go ahead, just tell them this: they've eaten too much. If they don't spit some out, I won't be in a good mood either!"

After speaking, Venerable Zi Ao looked in the direction of the Ancestral God Secret Realm.

Sending the most talented Purple Wood Flood Dragon from his clan to the Ancestral God Religion at great cost was the most correct decision he, Venerable Zi Ao, had ever made in his life.

The Purple Wood Flood Dragon Clan finally has a powerful backer in the Primal Universe!!

As he pondered this, a hint of smugness flashed in his eyes.

... The Xue You Continent of the Ancestral God Religion.

Purple Rain Venerable led the three little ones through the multicolored Aurora and landed on the Xue You Continent.

Before them stood a magnificent, blood-red palace.

At the palace entrance, a colossal beast lay across the gate, completely blocking the entrance.

Upon seeing this colossal beast, the three King Rank were all filled with dread.

Flora and the Crimson Flame Beast knew about the Mirror King; back then, the Mirror King was quite famous among the King Rank.

I later heard that he had offended the Demon Master Xue You and was taken in as a servant.

However, after becoming a servant, he quickly broke through to the Universe Venerable, and his strength increased significantly, surpassing that of many Universe Overlord!

"This guy is even stronger now; I can feel the pressure emanating from his life level." A look of surprise flashed in Flora's eyes.

"That's really powerful. I feel like it could kill me with a single slap," the Crimson Flame Beast replied telepathically.

Purple Wood Flood Dragon also looked at this terrifying fellow, feeling extremely fearful. Although the Three Fiends who occupied their Purple-Gold Mountain were very powerful, their combined pressure was no match for the one in front of them.

These were merely guards for the teacher. " Purple Rain Venerable! The master has already given instructions that you may enter."

Mirror Venerable shifted his body slightly, making room for him.

Let's go!

Purple Rain Venerable led the three into the palace.

Purple Wood Flood Dragon turned to look at Mirror Venerable, wanting to express his gratitude, but found that the three had already entered. He could only cup his hands in greeting and hurriedly followed them inside.

This action naturally did not escape the notice of Mirror Venerable, who yawned and slowly closed his eyes.
