On Jiuqu River, waves stretch for a thousand li. This river was the largest tributary of the Huai River, winding through mountains and gorges with nine bends and ten turns, including the most passable water route connecting Lu and Liang kingdoms. Between Lu and Liang kingdoms lay the vast Daqing Mountain range stretching ten thousand li, harboring countless demons and spirits of uncertain allegiance within. Not only mortals, but even ordinary cultivators were reluctant to traverse the…-

"...Xuanqing Sect?" The Taiwu Earth God pondered with furrowed brows for a long while. It wasn't because he'd never heard of this sect's name, but rather because there were far too many similar names. In this world, there were countless sects and factions of all sizes. If they weren't named after the location of their sacred grounds, most loved to incorporate terms related to their cultivation path—partly to distinguish themselves and declare their origins, and partly to constantly remind…

"How so fast..." Chang Andu murmured incredulously. He held his forehead, as if the dizziness from before his drunken dream had not yet dissipated. It was only one daytime, and the sun hadn't even set yet, when they had traveled from the Daqing Mountain range to Liang Kingdom. This was not something human power could accomplish. Was this a dream? Had he not yet sobered up from the wine? What kind of people were those two boatmen? Immortals? Demons and ghosts? What kind of boat had he taken on this…

"I see," Li Chi said. "You want the power in this river water?" The thick mist engulfed the pale-faced evil god's form. He hid among the mist and water ghosts, like a locust king hiding among a locust swarm. The cold mist obscured the darkness, obscured the river water, obscured the water ghosts' forms, and obscured the boat beneath their feet. That mist was mixed with traces of the muddy yellow river water's power. Just these traces were enough to devour most magical power. Any cultivator who…

A figure with cinnabar eyes and vermilion hair was outlined by the flowing flames. His eyes blazed bright as fire, his hair crimson as flame. He wore a loosely draped black robe that revealed part of his chest adorned with red-gold patterns, while the same red-gold flame markings flowed across the dark robe. Fierce blazing fire supported his feet, transforming the ground he trod upon into black-red burning soil. These violent yet docile flames coiled around him like a tiger returning to its den. Born as…
