Chapter 696

"This is also a fine place in the Lower Realm — there's an arena inside where you can temper yourself. If you can clear all the trials, it will be very beneficial to your cultivation base. In the future, you may find it useful."

Fang Yu said.

"In the future?"

A feeling rose in Shi Hao's heart: "Is Master about to leave?"

It was a premonition of his.

"After we go to Bulao Mountain this time, your master can begin preparing to leave this place. The Lower Realm is still too small — your master must go to the Upper Realm's Three Thousand Daozhou."

Fang Yu nodded.

"Alright, Master. I will certainly work hard at cultivating and ascend to the Upper Realm as soon as possible."

Shi Hao listened to Fang Yu's words with some reluctance, but he also knew that master and disciple would inevitably part one day. He had long foreseen such a day.

"But you need not rush to advance to Venerable. Soon the entire Lower Realm's Eight Domains will fall into chaos. Above Venerable, you are very likely to encounter a tribulation. Remember this well."

Fang Yu and Shi Hao stepped through the void and arrived at another place. Here too there surged waves of chaotic Qi, no one knew where it came from.

Though he did not know where it originated, wherever Fang Yu passed, all that chaotic Qi was drawn into him.

"The Lower Realm is about to fall into great chaos?"

A look of curiosity appeared on Shi Hao's face. He knew a little about the coming great chaos of the Lower Realm — many people seemed to know — but why exactly, he did not quite understand.

"Knowing too early is no blessing. In short, do not let your cultivation base exceed the Venerable realm. After that great tribulation passes, work hard to ascend to the Upper Realm, and then come back to change some things."

"Yes."

Master and disciple traveled through the Desolate Domain, then visited other domains such as the Mystic Domain — also a great domain with many sects.

As Fang Yu moved through the Mystic Domain, he sensed a violent fluctuation back in the imperial city of the Stone Country in the Desolate Domain.

The void there split open, revealing a decree.

A decree, as if a heavenly god had descended into the Lower Realm, swept across the vast Desolate Domain, emitting a blaze of golden light tens of thousands of zhang high. Upon it were character after character, each seemingly containing the great Dao's true words.

In the end, this decree descended upon the imperial capital of Stone Country, burning like golden flames. Symbol after symbol flickered, as if to annihilate the entire imperial city.

The decree of Bulao Mountain pierced through the domain wall and descended upon the Desolate Domain!

A terrifying aura manifested upon that decree — the aura of deities pervaded — and it reached straight for the three Bulao Mountain people still kneeling on the ground, seizing at them.

"Damn it — to humiliate my Bulao Mountain like this is a heinous crime! Under heaven and earth, no one will be able to save you!"

Arriving together with Bulao Mountain's decree was a middle-aged man — astonishingly a Venerable — radiating terrifying majesty. With the slightest movement, the entire imperial capital of Stone Country felt violent tremors; one by one, faces drained of color, unable to resist falling to their knees in worship.

"Did I tell you to save my dog?!"

But at this moment, the five-colored divine mountain that had been suppressing Qin Shoucheng suddenly transformed into Fang Yu's form, sleeves fluttering, radiating a terrifying majesty that suppressed the nine heavens and ten earths.

This incarnation of Fang Yu, formed from the five-colored divine mountain, was still invincible in combat. With a great grab, five-colored divine thunder filled the air, and in an instant it devoured that Bulao Mountain decree. Then with another grab, it suppressed the arriving Bulao Mountain Venerable as well, forcing him to his knees on the ground.

"What?"
