Just as Southern Heaven shook, countless Western Wilderness demons trembled, preparing to flee back home.
Ye Qingchen, with a single sword, chased after them.
There were seven top-level Earth Immortals, each an influential demon. Once they escaped, a heaven-shocking disaster would ensue. Even though Ye Qingchen was fearless, he could not allow these demons to one day counterattack Southern Heaven!
Therefore.
Ye Qingchen pursued into the Western Wilderness; he had to eliminate these old demons or subdue them, and he must not let them escape!
"Boom!"
The Blood Sword Ancestor no longer had that initial overwhelming power.
The surging blood cloud had already shrunk into a streak of blood light, swiftly dashing through the void.
As for the others.
They also regretted their parents hadn’t given them more legs, wishing they could get as far away from this Celestial South Fierce God as possible. But unfortunately, the distance between them was getting shorter.
Regret!
Regret for what was done!
The several fleeing Demon Sect leaders nearly turned their intestines green with regret.
If they had known.
Even with seven or eight guts, they wouldn’t have dared to come and surround Ye Qingchen.
"Hmph, if I knew, I wouldn’t have listened to Daoist Monarch Bai Gu’s instigation. Taking advantage of the fight between Eight-faced Buddha and Ye Qingchen, and obediently retreating to the Western Wilderness, how could such a calamity have happened?"
"Who would have known this kid was so capable? Initially, didn’t you all want to come out to kill Ye Qingchen? If it weren’t for you, would I have joined in surrounding him?"
"With a great enemy ahead, what are you all arguing about?"
The Blood Sword Ancestor, fleeing at the forefront, snapped back, frustrated with the bickering behind him, "Right now, at this critical moment, we must think about how to shake off this fierce god!"
"We can only gather all forces of the Western Wilderness to stop this child!"
The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Poisons glanced at Ye Qingchen behind, then directly took a jade token from his bosom.
At this moment.
The others also had no hesitation, each taking out a token.
Magical patterns rapidly spread out.
...
Watching those rapidly fleeing figures, seeing the Western Wilderness draw ever closer, Ye Qingchen’s gaze became increasingly fierce.
"These people know the Western Wilderness inside out, and they have been entrenched in the Western Wilderness for thousands of years. If they were allowed to escape back, it would not be easy to find them again!"
"Moreover, the powers in the Western Wilderness are more intricate and elusive than Southern Heaven many times over."
Thinking of this.
"Open!"
Boom!
His speed suddenly skyrocketed.
"Not good!"
Among them, the weakest, the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Poisons, only at the early stage of the Celestial Immortal Sixth Realm, immediately felt his hair standing on end.
Boom!
Without a moment of hesitation.
He spun his body, took a deep breath, his chest puffing up, and violently exhaled.
A jet of extremely refined cyan mist shot out explosively. If observed closely, this mist was composed of countless toxic particles as thin as ox hair. This breath of toxic mist was the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Poisons’ Life Essence Qi, extremely poisonous. Brewed until now, who knows how many toxic insects, grasses, and substances it had swallowed to condense to this degree!
It could seal the throat with blood, even targeting Celestials!
Boom!
The green toxic mist spread in an instant, covering miles, directly engulfing Ye Qingchen.
Even the other demons at this moment felt dizzy and their aura chaotic.
After expelling this one breath of toxic mist, the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Poisons appeared exhausted, his face aging quickly, evidently drained, and would take hundreds of years to recover his peak.
Yet he was full of pride: "My breath of toxic mist, not even Ye Qingchen can easily break through it! Holding him off for three to five years is no problem!"
This poison was not easily resolved, almost finding every opportunity to invade, even True Qi Shields and Magical Treasure Secret Techniques couldn’t block it. Once it got into the body, it was like a maggot feeding on bone.
Utilizing a cultivator’s life force as sustenance, it continually devoured qi blood and True Qi.
Precisely because of this.
He could hold the position of leader in the Western Wilderness Demon Sect with only an early-stage cultivation of the Sixth Layer.
"Zing!"
However.
Just as this thought arose, Ye Qingchen broke through the toxic mist with one sword, already dashing through the air to attack.
"How is this possible?"
The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Poisons’ eyes were about to bulge out.
"Boom!"
Without hesitation, he clasped his hands together.
Surging True Qi instantly dispersed, forming a massive shield. Simultaneously, beams of light emerged, translating to colorful shields around him to protect the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Poisons.
Boom!
The silver light manifested by Ye Qingchen crashed fiercely into the multicolored light in an instant. But these magical treasures and techniques painstakingly collected and inscribed by the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Poisons throughout his life couldn’t withstand this sword!
Tss!
The sword light sliced down before the crowd.
Before the eyes of many, Ye Qingchen’s sword cleaved through layer upon layer of shields. And then cut the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Poisons from head to toe into two halves.
The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Poisons glared wide-eyed, filled with disbelief!
Seeing this scene.
The remaining leaders were so scared their souls nearly fled, using every ounce of their strength.
...
Western Wilderness.
To the west of the Kunlun Realm, a vast domain is known as the Western Wilderness. This area is seven or eight times larger than Southern Heaven, where the landscape spreads with sprawling, dormant mountains.
Here is also the territory of the Twelve Demon Sects of the Western Wilderness.
Here!
It is more complex and terrifying than Southern Heaven.
Not only is there the infamous ’Fallen Dragon Abyss,’ but also the millions of great mountains.
It is said.
This land was once the main battlefield of the last Great Tribulation of All Heavens, leaving behind numerous ancient sects and clans’ remnants. The Twelve Demon Sects and many Western Wilderness demon cultivators thrived on these ancient sects and clans’ corpses, hence becoming so powerful.
And among them, naturally, the leaders of the Twelve Demon Sects were outstanding figures!
But now.
Seven of these leaders issued a secret order together, to hunt down a Celestial Immortal, and this news instantly set the entire Western Wilderness abuzz.
"What exactly is going on?"
"Seven great Demon Sect leaders issuing a secret order to hunt a Celestial Immortal? Who exactly is this Celestial Immortal?"
"Who cares who he is! They say this Celestial Immortal is already entering the Western Wilderness. If we kill him, perhaps we can obtain some Heavenly and Earthly Treasures from the seven leaders!"
"Indeed, there’s actually a Celestial South Loose Cultivator dare to tread into our Western Wilderness! Absolutely courting death!"
All at once.
The Western Wilderness was in an uproar, demons gathered, ready to meet this mysterious enemy.
Meanwhile, Ye Qingchen.
Along the way, he slew four more leaders.
Despite these leaders’ dying counterattacks posed significant trouble for Ye Qingchen. But the most troublesome was the Life Essence Poison of the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Poisons, which not only corroded the physical body but also consumed the soul.
After spending considerable time removing this essence poison, it was ultimately inevitable, allowing the Blood Sword Ancestor, and others to escape his sight.
Finally.
Half a day later, Ye Qingchen stepped into the Western Wilderness.
And at that moment, he was greeted by the demon cultivators of the entire Western Wilderness!
