"Senior Li, where are you headed?"

Chi Yuan cautiously asked Han Li.

"This Venerable One is going to the Northern Continent Demon Realm. I will also pass by the Nine Li Tribe along the way. Since that's the case, I'll take you with me."

Han Li said indifferently.

Hearing this, Chi Yuan's face instantly lit up with joy: "Thank you, Senior."

Han Li didn't speak. With a wave of his hand, a golden light flashed, and the figures of the two directly disappeared from the temple... Above the sea of clouds in the Ten Thousand Mountains, Han Li walked on white clouds, with Chi Yuan following behind him.

Along the way, Chi Yuan was cautious and didn't speak.

After half an hour of travel, Han Li suddenly stopped, looking at a city in the distance below.

Compared to the Chi Huang Tribe's city, it looked more imposing.

And this was the Nine Li Tribe, one of the ten great tribes of the barbarians, also known as the strongest tribe among them.

"Swish—!"

Light swept through, and the figures of the two disappeared above the sea of clouds. The next second, they landed in a green mountain.

It was only ten li away from the Nine Li Tribe's city.

"This is the Nine Li Tribe," Han Li said indifferently.

Chi Yuan looked at the tribal city ahead, his expression filled with excitement.

"How do you contact your uncle? Do you go directly into the city?" Han Li asked Chi Yuan.

"Senior Li, you don't need to worry about that. I can contact my uncle using a Bloodline secret art," Chi Yuan replied.

"Bloodline secret art?" Han Li looked at Chi Yuan in surprise.

Seeing the confusion in Han Li's eyes, Chi Yuan explained: "Senior, the Bloodline secret art is an Innate Divine Ability of my clan. Those with similar Bloodlines can use this Bloodline secret art to communicate, but it needs to be within a certain range, not too far."

"I see," Han Li nodded.

"Senior Li, are you coming into the city with me?" Chi Yuan asked, looking at Han Li.

"This Venerable One will not go. I've been delayed for some time, so I need to speed up."

Han Li shook his head.

"Alright then, Senior, please be careful on your journey. I hope Senior breaks through to higher Realms and dominates the world," Chi Yuan said with a smile.

"I'm leaving," Han Li's voice sounded, and the next second, he directly vanished into the void.

Watching Han Li disappear without a trace, Chi Yuan retracted his gaze.

"Li Feiyu..."

"If I succeed in Cultivation in the future, I must repay this Senior." Chi Yuan's gaze was firm. Immediately, he formed hand seals, and a wisp of blood-colored light instantly emanated from his body.

"Buzz—"

The blood-colored light gradually intensified. Suddenly, it vibrated, and the blood-colored light around him disappeared.

Chi Yuan opened his eyes, exhaled, and stood still, waiting.

After a while, a green rainbow sped over, and in an instant, it arrived in front of Chi Yuan.

Revealing his true appearance, it was a middle-aged man dressed in a black robe.

"Xiao Yuan, you... how did you end up like this?" Seeing Chi Yuan in such a disheveled, beggar-like state, the middle-aged man was startled.

"Uncle, I just came out of the Land of Punishment in the tribe," Chi Yuan explained.

"What? The Land of Punishment!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's pupils contracted, and he looked at him with a solemn expression.

"Yes, I made some mistakes, so I was imprisoned in the Land of Punishment. Fortunately, a Human Race Senior helped me remove the sin mark," Chi Yuan nodded and said.

The middle-aged man frowned deeply, looking at Chi Yuan: "Human Race Senior?"

"What is this person's name?" the middle-aged man asked Chi Yuan.

"This Senior is called Li Feiyu, but I don't know where he is from," Chi Yuan replied.

"I see..."

The middle-aged man nodded gently, then looked at him and said: "Since you came out of the Land of Punishment, you probably can't go back. Cultivate with me in the Nine Li Tribe. You, boy, have had good talent since childhood. If he becomes an emperor, I don't think the Chi Huang Tribe would dare to say anything."

"Thank you, Uncle," Chi Yuan said with a joyful expression.

"Alright, come with me. I'll arrange the rest."

"Yes!"

...The Ten Thousand Mountains, vast and boundless.

Peaks rose and fell, endless.

After several days, Han Li finally traversed the Ten Thousand Mountains.

At this moment, he had already reached the northern border region of the Southern Continent.

"Whoosh la la~"

Waves surged, and the turbulent seawater rolled up spray. Han Li's figure appeared on the seashore.

"North Sea..."

Looking at the surging and vast seawater, Han Li exhaled.

So far, this should be the farthest he had traveled.

Gazing into the distance, Han Li seemed to be able to see powerful Demonic Qi surging within the turbulent waves.

The Abyss of the North Sea, where great fiends lurked, known as the Northern Darkness. This place... was a world of demons!

Looking at the boundless North Sea, Han Li took out the ruyi compass.

The North Sea region was vast, no less than a continent.

There were numerous islands within it, and many overseas forces were stationed here.

However, in the outer regions, most were still Human Race. Only by going deeper was it truly the land of demons.

Activating the ruyi compass with his magic power, Han Li could see star-like light dots twinkling on the ruyi compass.

Each light dot was an island.

They varied in size; some islands were even larger than land cities.

Overseas forces were complex and countless.

There was no existence of countries.

Entering the sea, one would encounter forces from various islands.

After checking, Han Li put away the ruyi compass, his figure soaring into the sky, and he directly flew towards the vast sea.

Walking through the air, the continent behind him gradually shrank, and after an hour, it was completely out of sight.

Waves surged, and the seawater was bottomless. From within the seawater, Han Li felt powerful Demonic Qi rolling.

The demons in the sea were no less numerous than those on the continent; in fact, there were even more.

After an hour of travel, Han Li also saw sailing ships on the ocean.

Most of these ships formed a team.

An ocean caravan.

The main ship was several hundred zhang in size, with escort ships in front, back, left, and right responsible for protection.

Merchant ships of this scale were mostly only affordable by large commerce.

A single voyage out to sea would definitely incur considerable expenses.

However, a single voyage also yielded substantial profits.

The overseas islands also had many unknown Heaven And Earth Treasures.

Only large commerce had this capability.

"Tian Yuan..."

Han Li looked at the merchant ship's flag on the sea. The two large characters were very conspicuous.

The flag fluttered in the wind.

"Business reaching all corners of the world!"

Looking at the Tian Yuan Commerce's merchant ship, Han Li sighed.

The largest commerce in the Wu Dynasty, he hadn't expected to see a Tian Yuan Commerce merchant ship even on the North Sea.

"Woo—!"

Just then, a low roar came from the ocean.

The next second, the seawater exploded, Demonic Qi surged, and a demon with a body hundreds of zhang in size appeared.

A snake.

Its entire body was black, its scales forged like black gold, and its Demonic Qi soared into the sky.

It was clearly a Demon King of the Peak of the Acquired Realm.

"Whoosh—!"

At the same time, from the surrounding seawater, demons rushed out, hundreds of them, completely surrounding the entire caravan.

"Haha, humans again. It seems this time, this King will have a great harvest."

The Black Snake Demon King let out a wild laugh, and the surrounding demons also made excited sounds.

At this moment, the caravan's ships stopped, and one by one, Xiantian martial artists appeared from the escort ships around them.

Among the merchant ship's guard team, there was naturally no shortage of Xiantian martial artists.

These were Martial Artists cultivated by Tian Yuan Commerce, at great expense.

They were for use in times of danger.

Top-tier large commerce all had professional Martial Artist teams.

Even facing hundreds of demons, these people remained fearless.

"This is a merchant ship of Tian Yuan Commerce. Please, Great King, be accommodating and clear the way for us to pass."

At this moment, from within the merchant ship, the voice of a white-robed old man sounded, loud and clear.

"What damn Tian Yuan Commerce? This is this King's territory. Since you've come, all of you shall stay. Minions, attack!"

The Black Snake Demon King didn't waste words and directly ordered an attack on the merchant ship.

Hundreds of demons moved out at once.

Demonic Qi soared into the sky, and their Aura was terrifying.

Countless seawater exploded, and towering waves rolled up.

It looked quite intimidating.

"Blackwater Profound Snake... also a great and fierce demon!"

In the clouds, Han Li looked at the Black Snake Demon King.

The next second, he raised his hand, and in the sky, hundreds of sword shadows suddenly bloomed.

The sword shadows pierced the air, like peerless divine swords descending.

This scene instantly startled the demons.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!!!"

A bloody Aura permeated the air, and sword light flashed. Hundreds of demons were decapitated one by one, all perishing.

The Martial Artists on the merchant ship also looked up at the sky in shock.

In a single pass, hundreds of demons were instantly killed.

Blood dyed the nearby seawater red.

The leading Blackwater Profound Snake Demon King was startled and immediately released Demonic Qi to form a water wall to resist the sword shadows. However, under this sky-piercing sword strike, its defense was futile.

The sword shadows directly shattered it, severing the snake's body, and it died instantly.

Even an Peak of the Acquired Realm Demon King couldn't withstand a single sword strike.

This scene shocked the Martial Artists on the merchant ship.

"Thank you, Senior, for your assistance." A white-robed old man looked up at the sky and bowed.

However, he received no response. Light swept over the two halves of the Blackwater Profound Snake Demon King's corpse, and it disappeared without a trace.

Looking at the sea of clouds in the sky, the Martial Artists exchanged glances.

After killing the demons, this mysterious Senior had directly disappeared.

They didn't even have time to thank him... But they quickly recovered, looking at the dead demon corpses, and one by one, they moved to collect the demon corpses.

The Senior might not care for them, but for them, this was a considerable fortune... After a small disturbance, Han Li continued to walk through the air, deeper into the North Sea.

Half a day passed, and Han Li finally saw the first island.

This was an island a hundred li in circumference, with villages and towns located on it, quite prosperous.

However, Han Li only glanced at it and did not stop, flying over the island and continuing forward... Two days passed quickly, and Han Li had already traveled more than a hundred thousand li deep.

His speed was not fast; he maintained a normal pace.

Along the way, Han Li had encountered dozens of islands, but most were barren small islands, with only a few inhabited.

He had not yet encountered any large islands.

"Rumble rumble—!!"

Thunder rumbled from the sky, and streaks of lightning tore through the firmament. One moment it was bright and sunny, the next, dark clouds covered the sky.

The weather in the sea was unpredictable.

Han Li had already gotten used to it.

Traveling through the lightning, he wasn't greatly affected.

Compared to the Heavenly Tribulation, these lightning bolts were mere trifles.

The gloomy sky, with dark clouds covering everything.

Li Feiyu shuttled through the dark clouds, his gaze sweeping across the endless sea.

After a few minutes of travel, Li Feiyu spotted an island appearing on the sea.

It was a massive island, comparable to a small landmass.

It was even larger than Tianling Island of the Wu Dynasty.

On the island, towering cities could be seen.

This was the first large island he had encountered in two days.

"I'll go to this island first, and get some rest," Li Feiyu thought, then headed towards the large island.

Soon, he arrived at the large island.

Concealing his Aura, he descended from the sky, landing in a desolate area on the island, while in the distance, there were large docks.

Many boats were moored by the docks.

The small ones were dozens of zhang long, and the large ones were hundreds of zhang long.

Standing still, Li Feiyu glanced at the city in the distance.

"Luo Xing Island..."

Taking out his ruyi compass, Li Feiyu confirmed the exact location of the current island.

Luo Xing Island!

It was a very large island, and the ability to build a city on it proved its sufficiently profound foundation.

"The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi is good, it seems this is also a place rich in Spiritual Qi..."

Stepping away from his spot, Li Feiyu took a breath.

Large islands are not so common in the North Sea.

Moreover, a large island with a city not only symbolizes the island's prosperity but also serves as a safe haven in this endless sea.

Li Feiyu strode towards the city gate.

Along the way, he saw many figures, most of whom were Martial Artists. In the North Sea, without strength, ordinary people basically had no space to survive.

It was even less safe than the land, with dangers that could arise at any time. If some terrifying demon were to attack, the entire island would be submerged.

Here, basically no ordinary people could be seen.

Most were Martial Artists, and their strength was not weak; there were quite a few in the Vein Opening Realm and Innate Realm.

"Why are they in such a hurry?"

Nearing the city gate, Li Feiyu stopped and looked towards it.

In front of the city gate, which was several zhang tall, many people had gathered, creating a clamor.

Everyone wanted to enter the city.

However, the city gate was guarded by special personnel who blocked it, preventing entry.

Li Feiyu felt very strange.

This situation seemed a bit different.

Could it be that some special event had occurred?

After a careful observation, Li Feiyu discovered another problem.

Another passage was open on the side, allowing entry into the city.

However, very few people used this passage.

Moreover, those who entered through this passage were basically Xiantian martial artists.

Or, the entrants would produce a token, and then they would be allowed through.

But most people were still blocked at the main gate.

The side passage was guarded by many Martial Artists, and Li Feiyu even saw some people enter this passage, but for some reason, they were thrown out before even entering the city.

This scene made Li Feiyu feel very strange.

The main city gate was closed.

Instead, a small side gate was opened, and only a very small number of people could use this small side gate. What kind of operation was this?

"Brother, what happened? Why is the city gate closed?"

Li Feiyu asked a young man standing nearby.

"Sigh, don't even mention it, it's because of the beast tide."

The young man said.

Beast tide?

Hearing the young man speak, Li Feiyu was stunned.

What did a beast tide have to do with the city gate being closed?

Moreover, there didn't seem to be any beast tide near Luo Xing Island, right?

"You're from out of town, aren't you?" The young man looked at Li Feiyu and asked.

"Yes, I just arrived at Luo Xing Island today." Li Feiyu nodded.

"Don't you know about the beast tide?" The young man looked at him in surprise.

Li Feiyu was even more confused.

He had traveled all the way to Luo Xing Island and had not found any traces of a large number of demons.

How did this beast tide come about?

"I don't know." Li Feiyu shook his head.

The young man glanced at him and said, "It seems your area hasn't been invaded by the beast tide yet. The reason so many people are blocked here is because their hometowns have been invaded by the beast tide, and many islands have fallen. They were forced to flee here because Luo Xing Island is the largest island within tens of thousands of miles and also has a top-tier major power. So, everyone comes here seeking refuge, but too many people have come, and it's already overloaded. That's why they are blocked outside."

"I see..."

Hearing the young man's explanation, Li Feiyu's mind became clear.

"Then, do the major powers not care about this beast tide?" Li Feiyu asked.

"This is the North Sea, not somewhere else. If they want to care, they need to have the strength. When demons launch a beast tide, there are terrifying existences at the Demon Emperor level behind them. Even major powers are unwilling to confront them directly, unless absolutely forced to act."

The young man replied.

"Demon Emperor overseeing it..."

Hearing this, Li Feiyu's eyes lit up.

"Sigh, just wait. Today's entry quota is already full. Let's wait until tomorrow and see if there's a chance to enter the city."

The young man sighed.

"Is there a fixed quota every day?" Li Feiyu looked at him and asked.

"Of course. This is a special period. With demons causing chaos and the beast tide invading, Luo Xing City only has three hundred entry slots per day."

The young man nodded.

"Then... is this passage on the side only for locals to enter?"

Li Feiyu looked at the small passage not far away, then at the young man beside him.

The young man nodded: "Yes, besides locals, you must have Innate cultivation to enter the city."

"Because there's also a shortage of experts now, Innate experts receive special treatment," the young man added.

"I see..."

Li Feiyu nodded.

The situation was basically clear.

"Thank you." Li Feiyu cupped his hands, then headed towards the special passage not far away.

The young man: "??"

"Stop!"

Li Feiyu arrived at the entrance of the special passage, and immediately someone blocked him.

A burly man looked at him and said, "Show your identity token. Here, only people from this city can enter, or please reveal your cultivation. Only Xiantian martial artists can enter the city."

"Buzz—!"

Li Feiyu's expression was calm, and a wisp of Aura was released.

"God... God Realm Supreme!"

Feeling the Aura from Li Feiyu's body, the burly man's face instantly changed drastically.

"Can I enter the city now?" Li Feiyu asked the big man.

"Senior, please come in!" The burly man immediately recovered, his attitude making a complete 180-degree turn.

Li Feiyu then stepped forward, entering the city through this special passage.

"God Realm Supreme??"

Not far away, the young man was stunned.

The young man just now was a God Realm giant???

..."Senior, please wait." As soon as he stepped through the passage into the city, a young man in white immediately came forward and bowed respectfully.

Li Feiyu frowned, looking at the young man in white.

He was in the Innate First Realm.

"What is it?" Li Feiyu asked faintly, looking at the young man in white.

"Senior, I am a True Disciple of the Luo Xing Sect. Your entry into our Luo Xing City is truly a blessing for our Luo Xing City. Now that demons are invading and causing chaos in the surrounding areas, I would like to invite you, Senior, to rest at our Luo Xing Sect's encampment."

The young man in white said respectfully.

"Luo Xing Sect..."

"Then it seems this is the top power on Luo Xing Island..."

Hearing the young man in white speak, Li Feiyu's mind became clear.

A top power would more or less have a God Realm giant overseeing it.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to hold down an area.

"It must be because of the beast tide, so they want to invite me... This is a good thing."

Li Feiyu's thoughts raced.

What did he need most? Killing Qi!

A beast tide meant a large number of demons.

To form a beast tide, there must be at least tens of thousands of demons.

Moreover, within the beast tide, there were also Demon Emperor-level existences.

This piece of information was very important.

"Through the power of the Luo Xing Sect, perhaps I can get more specific information about the beast tide... Then it will be easier to act."

As his thoughts churned, Li Feiyu quickly came back to his senses.

"In that case, lead the way."

Li Feiyu said with a calm expression.

The young man in white immediately showed joy.

"Senior, please follow me."

Saying that, he turned and led the way.

Li Feiyu followed behind the young man in white.

Luo Xing City was very large and prosperous.

However, now, Li Feiyu seemed to be able to feel a chilling atmosphere. Although there were many people on the streets, most of them seemed to be in a hurry.

The pressure brought by the beast tide made them all feel a sense of oppression.

Although Li Feiyu had not experienced any beast tides in his Cultivate to date, he had learned something from ancient texts.

Even the smallest beast tide involved tens of thousands, while larger ones involved hundreds of thousands, or even millions, or several millions.

Li Feiyu had not expected to encounter a beast tide so soon after entering the North Sea.

For others, it was something to avoid, but for him, it was an opportunity to increase his strength.

Blood Qi rushing through the orifices!

Li Feiyu's current Cultivate required a large amount of Blood Qi for advancement.

The beast tide was a very good opportunity... In a short while, Li Feiyu followed the young man in white to a mansion in the south of the city.

The mansion looked grand and magnificent. The entire mansion was enveloped by a Formation, blocking Divine Sense probing.

At the entrance of the mansion, there were also dedicated guards.

"Senior, this is the resting place. What do you think, Senior?"

The young man in white looked at Li Feiyu and asked.

"It's fine." Li Feiyu nodded.

A smile appeared on the young man's face, and he said, "Then please, Senior, come in and rest."

Saying that, he opened the mansion gate and gestured.

Li Feiyu's expression was calm, showing no change in his demeanor, as he stepped into the mansion.

The interior of the mansion was well-decorated.

In the front courtyard upon entry, there were neatly planted spiritual plants, and the air was fresh.

Stepping through the front courtyard, Li Feiyu arrived at the middle courtyard, which was even larger and featured a rockery and a stream.

The young man in white continued to lead the way, and Li Feiyu followed silently behind him.

After passing through two courtyards, they officially entered the mansion's main hall.

Li Feiyu sat on a chair in the main hall, while the young man beside him poured him tea.

"Senior, this is a place specially for our Luo Xing Sect's distinguished guests. Whatever you need, Senior, please say so, and we will surely meet your demands."

The young man in white said with a smile.
