That shouldn’t be possible. Our Southern Region hasn’t produced a Godly Monarch in tens of thousands of years.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then how do you explain that God Beast?” Lin Beisheng asked. “A God Beast that could make a Grand Empyrean back down, how could it be following Qiu’er’s commands?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well…” Lin Juemie fell silent for a moment, lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No matter what, this doesn’t concern us much anymore. Qiu’er has his own path to follow. Perhaps his destination is the Immortal Bridge,” Lin Beisheng said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We just need to manage the Nine Heavens Sect of today. Record everything truthfully in the Epoch Chronicle, and let future generations judge for themselves.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Lin Juemie gave a small nod, accepting it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Swamp Lands, Xu Zimo awoke from his cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the saying goes, time is forgotten in the mountains; years pass in an instant when cultivating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had spent an entire month absorbing the mist, finally slowing down after breaking through another meridian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The results of this month’s cultivation were significant. The tenth extraordinary meridian, the second cycle, the Sacral Chakra, had been opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spiritforce within his body now flowed like a mighty ocean instead of a mere river, surging endlessly and continuously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body had become even more refined and powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the further he progressed with the strange meridians, the more mist he needed. Xu Zimo decided to find the source of this mist, thinking it would benefit his cultivation greatly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mist in the Swamp Lands merged with the air, and sharp cries echoed from deep within the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo stood up and walked deeper into the marsh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After about ten minutes, the ground beneath his feet suddenly gave way, and he fell without warning into a marsh pit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mist obscured everything, and the surrounding mud pulled at him with suction force, trying to swallow him whole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pungent, foul smell assaulted his nose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mud quickly rose to his waist. The more he struggled, the deeper he sank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo tested the situation. Even a Fusion Heaven cultivator might not escape from this kind of suction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was worse was that anyone who entered the marsh and inhaled the mist wouldn’t be able to integrate it as he did with his strange meridians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the mist clung to the meridians, over time, it would block the flow of spiritforce entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, even a Fusion Heaven cultivator would become no different from an ordinary person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was why the Swamp Lands were considered forbidden ground. The Grand Empyreans couldn’t see through the mist and would get lost, and the deadly marshes would stop 90% of intruders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, above the marsh was a barrier-like force that prevented people from flying through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite all the danger, Xu Zimo’s Godly Monarch realm made him quite safe here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pulled himself out of the marsh, looking ahead into the endless white mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Closing his eyes slightly, he released his spiritual sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his God-Soul, he could detect abnormalities within several kilometers, an ability gained after advancing to Godly Monarch and igniting the God-Flame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through this sense, Xu Zimo found something odd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was supposed to be the habitat of the Lizard Race. No matter the species, there should be some sign of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in his perception, not a single living thing could be found.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using his divine sense to avoid more marsh pits, Xu Zimo kept walking forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rain eventually cleared. Even the downpour seemed tired and stopped around dusk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The climate in the marsh grew more humid and cold. The mist remained, thick and white, obscuring the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo had walked for half a day and still hadn’t seen any living creature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This doesn’t make sense,” he frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stopped under a large old tree, sat on a branch, and extended his spiritual awareness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed slowly, and the night grew darker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until midnight, when a disturbance deep within the marsh woke Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes snapped open. In the next instant, a faint afterimage remained on the branch while he appeared several hundred meters away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, in a patch of blooming wisteria, a girl in a green robe was cautiously picking flowers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking closely, her pupils were green, and her ears were triangular like a cat’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xu Zimo appeared behind her, the green-robed girl sensed him instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Frightened, she cried out, dropped her basket, and instantly opened a spatial gate in front of her and stepped through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A Particle World?” Xu Zimo murmured in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the gate about to close, he waved his right hand. With the power of creation, he locked the entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After quickly stepping inside, the space rippled before returning to calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His vision gradually became clearer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo landed on solid ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking around, he found himself on a plain, surrounded by fruit orchards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were green grapes, yellow plums, purple fire fruit, all decent varieties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Up ahead, wisps of smoke rose into the air. A village could be vaguely seen in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Xu Zimo understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder he couldn’t find the Lizard Race, they lived in a Particle World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only occasionally did they venture into the outside world. If the entrance to the Particle World wasn’t open, even he wouldn’t have found it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the fusion technique manual left by the World Sovereign Empyrean Sect, the Lizard Race weren’t ordinary lizards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From birth, they could take human form. But their dream had always been to become dragons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo walked toward the village along a path paved with broken stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, several women emerged from the fruit orchards on either side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had well-maintained skin and also wore green robes, with baskets hanging from their arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They too had folded triangular ears. Laughing and chatting, they walked toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, they looked puzzled when they saw Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After sizing him up, their expressions changed slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who are you?” the leading woman asked cautiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I came to explore the Swamp Lands and accidentally got lost and ended up here,” Xu Zimo replied with a smile. “I was hoping to ask for directions.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re not one of us, you're not from the Lizard Race,” another woman said after looking him over. “You’re human, aren’t you?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1067,"2026-06-06T01:06:54.961Z",1,"novelbin.me","31f8cc2a880095346ad456ebead679a95c33deb1f3fe7d518ea72ff55f62f89d","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-679","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-677",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
