Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

As the blue light pillar suddenly dissipated, Xu Zixiao's vision blurred with shifting light and shadow; after a strong tearing sensation, his feet finally touched solid ground.

But the next second, he felt something was off.

The ground beneath his feet was not ordinary soil, but a rugged surface made of dark-gold rock.

Remains of all kinds were everywhere, including giant beasts tens of zhang long.

Looking around, there was no end in sight.

Xu Zixiao looked up, and the sight before him was even more unbelievable.

Above and around were not the starry sky, but colorful rivers and lakes, some flowing slowly, others hanging motionless.

A blue waterfall poured down from overhead, its water crystal clear, yet it was horizontally severed midway by an amber-colored lake.

Two liquids of different attributes collided, steaming up twisting mist.

The light did not come from the sun or moon, but from the illusory cold light emitted by laws.

Colors of green, blue, purple, and gold intertwined, making the place look like a ghostly realm.

There was no alternation of day and night here, only constantly shifting light and shadow, and inexplicable whispers.

When Xu Zhangqing observed through Xu Zixiao with focused spirit, a large chunk suddenly broke off in the distance.

It was a mountain peak burning with green flames, its body covered in strange runes.

It struck the rock, its body shattering instantly, sending up sky-filling debris and law ripples.

Wherever the law ripples passed, a large number of things were extinguished along with them.

But not long after, it suddenly disappeared.

Xu Zhangqing was shocked and doubtful; the situation here was too strange.

The scenery was often broken, repeating, or bizarre.

For example, a ruined temple ahead could be seen one second, but after the light and shadow shifted, it was gone the next.

Xu Zhangqing's heart tightened; he dared not let Xu Zixiao explore rashly, and immediately ordered: "Prioritize finding a gathering place of human cultivators."

Xu Zixiao replied: "As you command, Master."

He no longer stayed, picked a direction, and flew away quickly.

But after just tens of li, the rock layer beneath his feet suddenly trembled violently, followed by a terrifying pressure far surpassing a Nascent Soul cultivator rolling in from behind.

Xu Zixiao turned back sharply, only to see a burly figure a hundred zhang tall striding over.

The figure had three heads and six arms; each head had a ferocious face, and the six arms held saber, spear, sword, halberd, axe, and battle-axe—six heavy weapons—with twisting law turbulence swirling around his body.

Wherever he passed, space groaned under the unbearable weight.

Roar!

The terrifying existence let out a deafening roar, and the six arms waved simultaneously; six attacks carrying law power boomed in instantly, shattering the dark-gold rock layers along the way, and countless things were directly reduced to powder.

Xu Zixiao dared not take it head-on, activated the spirit patterns all over his body, turned into a green light, and fled.

But that terrifying existence was far beyond imagination; though far away, the attacks followed like a shadow.

Although they did not hit, they caused Xu Zixiao's spirit patterns to flicker and his aura to decline.

"This thing is so strong!"

"Won't we lose a spirit plant puppet as soon as we arrive?"

"This Long Yuan Water Spirit Seal is a bit unreliable!"

Xu Zhangqing's expression changed slightly, feeling that Xu Zixiao might not come back.

At this critical moment, a man suddenly shouted ahead: "Dao Friend, don't panic, quickly enter the array!"

Xu Zixiao looked toward the sound and saw three cultivators wearing green Daoist robes not far away; they had already laid out an array, and array patterns lit up with a green radiance, sweeping toward them.

He hesitated not at all, and quickly flew over.

Running was useless; he could only gamble.

"Rise!"

The leading green-robed cultivator gave a low shout, and the three simultaneously activated their mana; the array instantly surged, forming a solid green barrier.

"Boom!"

The six attacks boomed against the barrier; the green radiance flickered violently, and the three cultivators each spat out a mouthful of essence blood, but they blocked this earth-shaking blow.

The leading cultivator's face turned pale: "This is a Slaughter God's patrol; run quickly!"

Xu Zixiao, while repairing the other's injuries, asked: "Where are we going?"

The leading cultivator was stunned upon hearing this, then explained: "Heading east is San Yuan Mi Luo Tian; there powerful experts hold the fort, and the Slaughter God cannot approach."

Immediately, the four flew eastward.

The Slaughter God roared in pursuit but was blocked by the array for a moment.

After fleeing for about half an hour, the four approached a floating immortal mountain.

When Xu Zhangqing thought they would fly up to it, he found instead they passed straight through; the immortal mountain was fake, merely a bewitching illusion.

After passing through a barrier, the scene before them suddenly opened up.

Three floating immortal mountains were connected by chains and rainbow bridges, with array runes covering the mountains.

This place was the base of the Three Purifications Alliance, and also one of the gathering places of cultivators, San Yuan Mi Luo Tian.

Only after stepping into the protective restriction of the gathering place did the three green-robed cultivators breathe a sigh of relief; the leader looked at Xu Zixiao and asked in a deep voice: "Dao Friend, which faction are you a member of?"

Why are you wandering alone outside Lie Yuan, even drawing the attention of a Demon God!

Xu Zixiao spoke vaguely: "Xia Ren is Xu Zixiao, from some backwater place.

Just entering Tai Xu Lie Yuan, I carelessly lost my way, many thanks to the three Dao Friends for lending a hand."

The leading Xiuxian Zhe frowned upon hearing this, but did not press further, instead reminding: "Lie Yuan is extremely dangerous, walking alone is no different from seeking death.

This is the Outer Perimeter gathering place of the Three Purifications Alliance, where one can stay long-term."

Xu Zixiao clasped his hands in thanks, taking out some spirit stones to hand over: "Thank you again!"

"It's clear that Dao Friend is indeed here for the first time!"

"There are no spirit stones here; the transaction currency is Long Marrow Crystal!"

"If you really want to thank us, just give us some cultivation resources!"

The three Xiuxian Zhe exchanged glances, each torn between laughter and tears.

Xu Zixiao, or rather Xu Zhangqing, immediately understood, taking out some cultivation resources.

To prevent accidents, besides carrying spirit stones, Xu Zixiao also took some Rare Spirit Rice and precious Lingti that Xu Zhangqing had previously stored.

As soon as the items were brought out, the three Xiuxian Zhe's eyes brightened, and the leader said joyfully: "These are enough."

Next, Xu Zixiao exchanged Communication Tokens with the three—communication tools for long-distance contact—before they separated.

Under the pretext of finding a place to stay, Xu Zixiao wandered around inside the gathering place, constantly listening to the conversations of nearby Xiuxian Zhe, secretly gathering information.

Especially he could hear discussions about the various major powers:

"The Three Purifications Alliance and the Demon Race Ancestral Court have clashed again over Long Marrow Crystal mines; the members of Jin Ding Lei Cheng suffered many casualties, and the members of Qing Yu Yun Ya have already rushed to support!"

"The Three Purifications Alliance is quite united; Qing Yu excels in Lingti, Jin Ding excels in Thunder Technique, Han Palace excels in Artifact Refining—the three complement each other, which is why they've been able to hold out against the Demon Race Ancestral Court for so long."

"The Demon Race Ancestral Court is no pushover either; it was built upon the remains of an ancient Demon God, and inside, every Demon Race member has a powerful bloodline, fighting fearlessly to the death!"

Xu Zhangqing, after listening, felt inexplicably familiar: "This Three Purifications Alliance sounds so similar to the Three Great Immortal Sects of Dongting, Longhu, and Yao Yue!"
