Chapter 846: Xiaosa Ge

Miao Miao Xianzi inhaled deeply, her fingertips unconsciously gripping the dust sweeper in her hand, the broken silver threads trembling faintly in the wind.

She looked up toward the ever‑churning Dark Cloud Sea deep within the No Return Path, her exquisitely beautiful face filled with an inescapable solemnity, and her voice carried a hint of unmistakable hoarseness:

"There were no signs at all; the great battle suddenly erupted from the deepest part of the No Return Path. No one knows the cause…"

"Three months ago, the seal of the No Return Path suddenly collapsed on its own, and endless Dark Creatures surged out like a tide. At first we thought it was just an ordinary dark disturbance, so each sect sent ordinary disciples and Elders to hold the line. But no one expected that the scale and terror of this incident were unlike any previous dark disturbance."

"This is a World‑Ending Calamity of Era Great Calamity grade."

Miao Miao Xianzi's gaze swept over the floating celestial corpses and shattered relics around her, a deep sorrow flashing in her eyes:

"Many supreme beings who had hidden for years were forced to emerge and join the battle. They entered the No Return Path to uncover the root of the dark disturbance, but never returned…"

"In just three months, we lost seventeen Ultimate Leaps, over three hundred Supremes, and as for ordinary cultivators and Elders, the casualties were countless, numbering in the hundreds of millions."

"One region of the Zhutian Wanjie has already suffered heavy losses. The entire Epoch… hangs on the precarious edge of annihilation."

"Undoubtedly this is the most terrifying, most dreadful Era Great Calamity the whole Epoch has ever seen. If we get through it, order will be restored; if we fail… perhaps… the entire Epoch will plunge into complete ruin and darkness, and countless lives will turn to ash, becoming nourishment for the No Return Path."

Her tone was extremely heavy; each word struck Ye Wuque's heart like a massive stone.

Beneath the Bronze Mask, Ye Wuque's brows twitched slightly.

He could feel the despair and helplessness in Miao Miao Xianzi's words.

A calamity that can drive even a supreme Ultimate Leap warrior into such despair must be unimaginably terrifying.

And this is only the beginning.

"This critical node is the final barrier leading to the core of the Huangxian Jiyuan, guarded jointly by me, the Carefree Heavenly Venerable, Jian Tianzun, and Huang Xie."

Miao Miao Xianzi continued, pointing her hand toward three different directions deep within the No Return Path: "The four of us each guard a pass. I was just at the West Pass, the Carefree Heavenly Venerable guards the North Pass, Jian Tianzun guards the South Pass, and Huang Xie guards the East Pass."

"At this moment, they must also be in fierce battle. Moreover, just like me earlier, they are facing overwhelmingly uneven sieges!"

"I was just besieged by the Three Sovereign Emperors, and it was already a perilous situation. The enemies the Carefree Heavenly Venerable faces will only be more numerous, not fewer."

Upon hearing this, Ye Wuque showed no hesitation.

He looked up toward the North Pass, where an even more terrifying energy surge resonated, accompanied by a thunderous shout that shook the heavens.

"Lead the way."

Ye Wuque's voice remained calm, yet carried an undeniable authority.

Miao Miao Xianzi understood that Ye Wuque intended to rush to support the Carefree Heavenly Venerable and the others.

Thus, without hesitation, she nodded: "Alright! Que Xiong, follow me!"

As the words fell, Miao Miao Xianzi's form shifted, turning into a streak of white light that surged toward the North Pass first.

Ye Wuque followed closely; both moved at the limit of speed, becoming two streams of light, darting through the shattered starry sky.

Along the way, the scene grew increasingly grim.

Countless massive stars were pulverized by the battle's aftershocks into fine powder, turning into star dust that filled the sky.

The rivers of stars that spanned the sky were brutally severed, their waters flowing backward as stars fell.

Huge celestial corpses and demon corpses floated in the cold cosmic void; some had been dead for endless ages, yet their celestial aura still lingered, while others had just fallen in battle, blood continuously streaming and staining the surrounding starry sky red.

Broken celestial swords, shattered celestial armor, extinguished divine flames, scattered relic fragments… were scattered in every corner.

The air was thick with a strong scent of blood, acrid demonic aura, and a faint, heart‑pounding whiff of death.

Occasionally, some surviving cultivators could be seen fighting the remaining Dark Creatures in a blood‑soaked clash.

Each of them was ragged, scarred, yet their eyes remained steadfast, showing no sign of retreat.

Ye Wuque and Miao Miao Xianzi did not pause, racing onward.

Their speed was such that after only half an hour, they passed through the endless region of the No Return Path and arrived at the North Pass deep within the No Return Path.

Here, terrifying destructive waves had completely shattered it open!

The once solid Void had now become a chaotic void, riddled with countless spatial fissures that intersected like massive snarling mouths, devouring everything around.

Furious energy turbulence raged across the area like a hurricane.

Any cultivator below Supreme who steps into this zone would instantly be torn to pieces by the energy turbulence.

And at the center of this chaotic void stood a short, squalid little figure, upright in the Void.

The figure was less than a foot tall, chubby, with a round head, wearing an ill‑fitting oversized robe, looking like a child who had stolen an adult's clothing.

A hint of cynical smile played on his face, his small eyes darting mischievously, giving him a very squalid appearance.

Yet this seemingly inconspicuous short figure exuded an infinitely terrifying, world‑shaking pressure and aura!

This pressure was far stronger than Miao Miao Xianzi's!

He was locked in an earth‑shaking battle against four supreme beings on the No Return Path!

Ye Wuque saw the figure and was slightly surprised.

"Based on the information Miao Miao Xianzi gave, this short squalid being should be a supreme being at the peak of the Zhutian, just like the Marvelous Law Heavenly Venerable… the Carefree Heavenly Venerable!"

But Ye Wuque's surprise lasted only an instant.

It's normal for many supreme beings to have unusual appearances.

Moreover, the moment Ye Wuque first saw this short figure, he sensed that he was no ordinary being.

He bore an infinite, ancient, vast, and overwhelming power, as if a universe were contained within him.

Indeed, without such might, he would not have the right to step onto this battlefield, guard a pass alone, and face the siege of the Four Sovereign Emperors.

What Ye Wuque did not know was that, had his true self been here, he would also instantly recognize this short squalid figure.

That person was, unmistakably, the mysterious Xiaosa Ge!

The Xiaosa Ge who, in the current Epoch, is like a divine dragon seen only by its head and never its tail, whose power is unfathomable, always appears at critical moments to save the Zhutian from peril!

He, astonishingly, also appeared within this Huangxian Jiyuan!

Like Miao Miao Xianzi, he is also an ancient being who survived from the Huangxian Jiyuan!
