Celestial Realm.
A mysterious location.
Inside a completely sealed chamber without doors or windows.
As the copper pillar in the center of the chamber burst into light, several Divine Consciousness Shadows floated out, hovering around it like ghosts.
Each of these Divine Consciousness Shadows was a powerful overlord of the Celestial Realm, an entity standing above all living beings.
In the silence, an aged voice was the first to speak. "Just now, I heard a major incident occurred on the Divine Oracle's Twelfth Level."
"The four City Lords we had placed there, along with over six hundred Emperor Realm Cultivators, have all been killed. There were no survivors."
"Those four City Lords had reached the White Emperor Realm and could be considered peak-level combatants within the Divine Oracle Cave Heaven. Who could possibly have the power to annihilate them?"
"Many of those Emperor Realm Cultivators possessed Life-Forfeiture Flowers. According to those who returned, it was the work of a Mortal Realm cultivator nad Ao Debiao."
"Moreover, that Ao Debiao is actually the Azure Emperor!"
"What did you say?!"
"Wasn't that unparalleled demon supposed to have been suppressed and vanquished back in the era of Boundless Heavens?"
"Whether he is the Azure Emperor or not, this Ao Debiao must die. What are your thoughts?"
"We must remain vigilant. If that Ao Debiao appears in the Divine Oracle Cave Heaven again, have the people from Shattered Star City test his strength."
"Excellent. For now, the most important task is to go to Boundless Heavens and find the Azure Emperor's War Sword and Battle Armor."
"If Ao Debiao is truly the Azure Emperor, he will most likely make an appearance once Boundless Heavens opens."
...
Ghost Valley Mountain.
An Ran had been waiting for over an hour, but Luo Xiu still hadn't let her out, and she was getting very bored. She really didn't want to stay with Lao Ba and Black Fatty; the two idiots were incredibly noisy.
Lao Ba said worriedly, "This Crown Prince... he couldn't have forgotten about us, could he?"
Black Fatty mused, "Or maybe... sothing happened to the Crown Prince?"
Hearing Black Fatty's words, An Ran suddenly grew anxious. Luo Xiu still had to take her to find Dou Dou, so absolutely nothing could be allowed to happen to him.
So, she steeled herself, waved her magic wand, and forcefully tore open a rift in space, leaving the Ghost Valley Mountain that was sealed within the Cave Heavens Talisman.
The next mont, she found herself in a spacious bedroom.
"Mmm... Master... please slow down..."
"Yan'er can't take it anymore!"
"AHHH—!"
Just as she appeared in the bedroom, An Ran heard what sounded like Hua Muyan's excruciating screams.
She looked toward the sound, and her petite body instantly stiffened, her small face flushing crimson.
She saw everything she should have and everything she shouldn't have, all in crystal-clear detail.
"AH—!"
She shrieked, covered her eyes, and scrambled away.
In the room, Luo Xiu and Hua Muyan froze simultaneously, holding a difficult pose as if they had been turned to stone.
"Master, did I just... see an illusion?"
"Why was there a little girl?"
"Damn it... Never mind her, let's continue!"
...
A long while later, Luo Xiu, with the side effects of his constitution now suppressed, left the Green Lotus Palace feeling refreshed and revitalized. He then released Lao Ba and Black Fatty from the Cave Heavens Talisman.
When Hua Muyan saw that both Lao Ba and Black Fatty had gone completely bald, she couldn't hold back and doubled over with laughter.
"Lao Ba, Black Fatty, how did you two go to the Divine Oracle Cave Heaven and co back bald?"
Lao Ba, who hated the very word "bald," huffed proudly. "What do you know? Though I may be bald, I, Lao Ba, have also beco stronger!"
...
Afterward, Luo Xiu found An Ran in the Hundred Herbs Garden.
An Ran stood there staring at the Primordial Divine Vine, her expression thoughtful. When she saw Luo Xiu approaching, her small face couldn't help but turn red.
Now, whenever she saw Luo Xiu, those indecent images would uncontrollably surface in her mind. She really couldn't imagine how that enormous, disgusting thing... could burrow into a person's body. It was simply terrifying! No wonder that Flower Demon had scread so miserably.
"Ahem... High Priest, once Master Ping returns, I'll have him take you to Stunning Phoenix Swan State."
Hearing this, An Ran snapped back to her senses. She hastily turned her head away and nodded solemnly before asking, "Where did you get this Primordial Divine Vine?"
"It's a long story."
An Ran said, "No wonder you were able to use Primordial Divine Power back in Sky Divine City. You must have comprehended it from the Divine Vine Tao lon, correct?"
"Exactly."
An Ran stared at the two Dao Lemons on the vine. "It's just that these two Dao Lemons are filled with an aura of death, yet there is also life being nurtured within them. Whatever erges from them will surely be so kind of terrifying existence. You must handle them with extre care."
...
Before long, night fell.
Master Ping had just finished his day of cultivation and returned to the Land of Lawlessness when Luo Xiu found him, with An Ran in tow.
"Master Ping, I need your help sending soone to Stunning Phoenix Swan State."
Master Ping was taken aback when he saw An Ran. He didn't recognize her, but he could faintly sense a powerful aura from her. It was an aura that transcended that of a White Emperor.
After Luo Xiu made the introductions, he said, "The High Priest wishes to go to Stunning Phoenix Swan State to find Dou Dou. Is she still there?"
But Master Ping shook his head. "That's quite unfortunate."
"The day before yesterday, to test the Flower Demon's Construct Wood Power, I sent her over to Stunning Phoenix Swan State. I also had her look for Lin Xiyue and the others while she was there. However, she ca back with news that the won had already left. They're planning to go to Boundless Heavens."
"Boundless Heavens?" Luo Xiu frowned upon hearing the na.
Master Ping watched him. "That's right, Boundless Heavens."
"Afterward, I had the war slaves inquire... Rumor has it that Boundless Heavens is about to open, and countless cultivators are desperate to get inside and search for the treasures left behind by the Azure Emperor."
"As for why they went... I'm sure I don't need to tell you."
Luo Xiu looked at An Ran.
An Ran's face was expressionless. "Then let's go to Boundless Heavens. As long as I can find Her Highness the Princess, the destination doesn't matter."
...
That night, Hua Muyan personally cooked a grand feast of demon beasts.
Early the next morning, Luo Xiu rose to prepare for their departure.
Black Fatty found him, looking sowhat embarrassed. "Um... Crown Prince, I think I'll sit this one out."
"The way I am now... without a single hair on my body, I just don't have the face to be seen by people. I'd rather go to the Shanhai Territory and cultivate for a while, at least until my fur grows back."
Luo Xiu suppressed a laugh. "If I were in your shoes, I probably wouldn't have the face to see anyone either."
He then looked at Lao Ba. "And you?"
Lao Ba laughed proudly. "Of course I'm going! Even bald, I, Lao Ba, am still devilishly handso, alright?"
"Let tell you—if all the handsoness in the world filled ten buckets, I, Lao Ba, would own eight of them!"
Hearing this, Luo Xiu nearly gagged.
"Do you have so kind of misunderstanding about the word 'handso'?"
Black Fatty nodded and said to Lao Ba with great seriousness, "Lao Ba, my brother, let tell you the honest truth... If you weren't so ugly, you'd actually be quite handso."
"Nima!"
Lao Ba instantly flew into a rage, flapping his wings as he prepared to teach Black Fatty a lesson.
"You bald-headed mutt! I'm going to beat the crap out of you today!"
An Ran could no longer stand these two morons.
"If you two keep squawking, I'll make sure you can *never* grow hair again!"
At her words, the two fools were instantly terrified into silence.
Afterward, Luo Xiu and his party left the Land of Lawlessness and traveled to Master Ping's World Inside the Vase. From there, they departed into the Flowing Thunder River.
"Alright, Lao Ba, let's go."
"You got it!"
