486: Crisis averted, return to the vast immortal realm!

Crack—

A crisp cracking sound exploded throughout the Secret Realm without warning.

In the next second, cracks spread from a point in the Void Realm, dense like a spiderweb, quickly covering the entire sky.

Xuanyuan Tianji had just stabilized the churning blood and Qi in her body and hadn't even caught her breath when she was startled by this sudden turn of events.

"This is bad!"

Su Ming's reaction was faster than hers; almost the instant the cracks appeared, his expression darkened.

Those weren't ordinary spatial cracks; the Foundation of the entire Secret Realm was collapsing!

He hadn't expected it would only take the three Immortal Emperors one month to blast through the Secret Realm's barriers.

"Get in, quickly!"

Su Ming barked, wasting no words.

The gates of the Void World swung open with a boom.

Xuanyuan Tianji was also a decisive person, knowing this was no time for hesitation.

She pushed off with her toes, her figure turning into a streak of light, instantly vanishing into the Void World.

"Be careful!"

Before the words could fade, the gate to the Void World had already closed.

Almost at the same time, the entire Secret Realm space let out an overburdened wail.

Boom!

The sky completely collapsed, the earth instantly disintegrated, and violent spatial turbulence turned into a world-destroying Gale, sweeping toward Su Ming, the only living being at the center.

Su Ming stood in the center of the storm, but his expression showed no sign of panic.

"Great Void Dragon Travel!"

With a low shout, Su Ming's figure suddenly became illusory, and faint dragon-shadow scales appeared around him.

He took a step forward, his figure entering the Chaos Void and disappearing from the Human Emperor Secret Realm.

In the very next moment after Su Ming's figure vanished.

Three figures, so majestic they could crush eternity, descended into the shattered Human Emperor Secret Realm, carrying overwhelming Emperors Might.

They looked at the slowly closing Chaos Void, their expressions extremely grim.

"Is this the aura of a Grand Void Ancient Dragon?"

The Chaotic Immortal Emperor's brow furrowed, his tone carrying a hint of surprise and suspicion.

"Impossible! The Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan has long since lived in seclusion. Why would they interfere in the affairs of the Chaotic Immortal Domain?"

The Sin Emperor snorted coldly, but the wariness in his eyes could not be hidden.

The Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan was an existence that even Immortal Emperors were unwilling to provoke lightly.

"Hmph, who cares if it's a Grand Void Ancient Dragon!"

"The person has escaped; that is a fact!"

"Damn it! What rotten luck!"

The three Immortal Emperors were fuming with rage but were helpless... Three years' time was but a blink of an eye in the world of cultivation.

Vast Immortal Domain.

Inside the Immortal Sword Manor.

When Su Ming brought Xuanyuan Tianji back into the Immortal Sword Manor, their tense nerves could finally relax a bit.

"Little Junior Brother, you're finally back."

Zi You stood under the old locust tree, her purple dress fluttering slightly in the wind.

Seeing the two return safely.

Zi You's eyes rarely showed a hint of emotion.

Su Ming stepped forward quickly, his gaze lingering on Zi You's face for a moment, his brow instinctively tightening.

"Senior Sister, your body..."

Before he could finish, Zi You raised her hand to stop him.

"Enough, don't have such a long face all day."

"With Li Changfeng's Medicinal Pills, I feel much better than before."

Her tone was light, but Su Ming could see that the sickly paleness still lingered between her brows.

Li Changfeng's medicine could only suppress it; there was currently no way to cure it completely.

Just then, Feng Xi, who had just walked over, seemed to have discovered some shocking secret.

She froze in place, her eyes fixed on Xuanyuan Tianji without moving.

"Tian... Sister Tianji, what's going on with your Realm?"

This shout drew everyone's attention.

Everyone looked closely and realized that the aura surrounding Xuanyuan Tianji had already undergone a qualitative change.

That kind of resonance with heaven and earth, the faint Law fluctuations in every movement, was clearly a sign of stepping into the Immortal Emperor Realm.

"Immortal Sovereign?"

Ye Wushuang gasped and circled Xuanyuan Tianji three times, clicking his tongue in wonder.

"Whoa, what on earth happened to you guys in the Chaotic Immortal Domain?"

"With this Breakthrough speed, how are the rest of us supposed to live?"

"Could it be that the things left by the Human Emperor are really that powerful?"

Xuanyuan Tianji was amused by his appearance and replied softly.

"It was just good luck."

Su Ming flicked his finger, and the gate to the Void World cracked open once more.

A figure tumbled out, and Sword Thirteen landed steadily.

He looked around at the familiar mountain scenery, let out a long sigh of relief, didn't say much, and walked straight to the side.

Su Ming withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Xuanyuan Tianji.

"What do you plan to do with those members of the Xuanyuan Family still in the Void World?"

At the mention of the Xuanyuan Family, the softness in Xuanyuan Tianji's eyes faded, replaced by the composure of a Family head.

She thought about the situation around the Immortal Sword Manor and pondered for a moment.

"Let's find a mountain with decent Spiritual Qi near the manor to settle them."

Hearing this, Su Ming raised an eyebrow in approval.

He had actually wondered if Xuanyuan Tianji would arrange for these people to stay directly inside the Immortal Sword Manor.

After all, given the relationship between Xuanyuan Tianji and Jian Lingtian, if Xuanyuan Tianji spoke up, Jian Lingtian would likely not refuse.

However, Xuanyuan Tianji did not do so.

"That's a good idea."

Su Ming He patted the dust off his cuffs..

"However, the Xuanyuan Family has many members; all development must rely on themselves."

Xuanyuan Tianji gave a bitter smile and nodded.

"Of course. If they still don't understand this principle, then there's no need for the Xuanyuan Family to exist anymore."

Just then, Sword Thirteen's voice rang out.

"Have Revered Master and the others returned to the Outer Heaven again?"

Zi You withdrew her previous smile, her expression becoming solemn. She nodded slightly, her long hair drifting in the wind with a hint of coldness.

"Yes."

"A year ago, the Immortal Emperor Senior set off with all the Senior Brothers."

"The cracks in the Outer Heaven have expanded again, and the Eerie Clan's offensive is becoming increasingly frenzied. They are needed there to fill the battle lines."

Hearing the words 'Eerie Clan,' everyone's breathing became heavy.

That was a guillotine hanging over the entire Immortal Realm. Since ancient times, countless brilliant talents had been buried there.

Sword Thirteen didn't say another word; he just reached out and gently stroked the patterns on his sword hilt.

After a moment, he turned and walked toward the direction of the Outer Heaven.

Su Ming watched Sword Thirteen walk away.

A moment later, he withdrew his gaze, merged his fingers like a blade, and made a gentle swipe in the void.

The gate to the Void World opened once more, and this time, thousands of Xuanyuan Family members were released by him.

They stepped onto this unfamiliar land, looking at the surrounding mountain ranges and dense Spiritual Qi, their eyes filled with bewilderment.

"I'll leave it to you!"

Xuanyuan Tianji nodded and stood at the very front, leading the group.

Having settled everything, Su Ming did not participate in the subsequent commotion.

He walked back alone to his own quarters in the Immortal Sword Manor.

Pushing open the wooden door, Su Ming sat on the floor...
