The old man with a worried expression hurriedly got off the phoenix tree and headed towards Jiuyi Mountain. He was both shocked and fearful in his heart: "Something big has happened, the Meng Po Soup has lost its effect!"

Xu Ying drank ten bowls of Meng Po Soup in one gulp, but this time the soup didn't make him sleep like a baby as it used to. He still remembered that big bell!

He was supposed to forget all the memories since he was six years old.

He was supposed to only remember the fire in the Xu family village and that he was an orphan who escaped from the fire.

The seal in his mind would soon generate new memories for him, opening up a new chapter in his life.

But this time, the Meng Po Soup clearly didn't work!

"I must report this immediately, no time to waste!"

Just then, the worried old man saw Zhou Qiyun. The young man with white eyebrows stood with his hands behind his back, looking indifferent.

The worried old man's heart skipped a beat, he slowed down his pace, his brows furrowed, and he said, "We meet again."

Zhou Qiyun's face was cold, and his voice was somewhat chilly as he said, "I chose to undergo tribulation in Yongzhou not only because it is my hometown, but also because it is a new place. There are fewer entanglements and fewer powerful experts here."

The worried old man listened quietly without interrupting.

Zhou Qiyun continued, "By undergoing tribulation here, I can focus on it without worrying about a powerful expert suddenly appearing behind me. For this tribulation, I have cleared twenty-six ancient tombs and opened thirty-four immortal mountains. I have collected all the treasures. Those old immortals from other families have been mocking me for being a grave robber and tomb raider."

The worried old man said, "You must have a great plan if you are willing to bear such infamy. Ascension has become your obsession."

Zhou Qiyun said, "Anyone who threatens my ascension will face my retaliation, no matter who they are or what their background is."

The worried old man sighed and said, "And yet, I have appeared by your side twice. The first time, you could tolerate me, but the second time, you won't."

Zhou Qiyun smiled slightly and said, "You are clever, but you shouldn't have gotten too close to me, shouldn't have gotten too close to Xu Ying. Xu Ying is the key to my ascension. I need him to decipher and complete the cultivation method of the Qi Refiners. Whoever dares to harm me, I will kill them!"

The worried old man realized the danger and took a step back, suddenly leaped into the air, turning into a streak of green light and rushing towards the sky. He thought to himself, "I took a few steps back just now without any flaws. Zhou Qiyun couldn't make a move!"

Just as he thought this, the world spun around, and the direction he was flying in also reversed. He was actually flying towards Zhou Qiyun!

The worried old man was shocked, "When I met him at the Wangxiang Platform, he was not as good as me! When I met him again at the Wuwang Mountain, he gave me great pressure and could already stand on equal footing with me! Now it seems that his abilities have improved even more!"

The two of them got closer and closer. The worried old man's primordial spirit appeared behind him, vast and boundless, resonating with all his power. He pointed his finger!

His true essence shook, exerting all his strength, and he thought, "In such a short time, I don't believe you can integrate the cultivation method of the Qi Refiners and create a new divine technique! Witness my Immortal Slaying Finger!"

With this finger, an astonishing immortal light surrounded it, with immortal energy flowing around the fingertip. The fingertip trembled, revealing illusory figures, some fast and some slow, attacking Zhou Qiyun from different time and space!

Zhou Qiyun also pointed his finger, and the worried old man's pupils contracted in shock: "The Immortal Slaying Finger? Where did he learn the finger technique of the Immortal Slaying Finger? Right, he became a grave robber and dug up so many graves, most likely he also dug up my teacher's grave!"

A series of dull sounds rang out, and all the immortal lights and illusions disappeared, leaving only the collision of their fingertips.

With a crisp sound, the worried old man's finger broke, and he cried out in pain, turning around and leaving, thinking, "He has incorporated all the vitality of the Mud Pill Secret Treasure into his physical body. This body is already close to that of an immortal, surpassing me!"

He leaped into the air, but the world turned upside down again, and he found himself flying towards Zhou Qiyun!

"He has already reached the level of a divine technique!"

He was both shocked and angry, and forced to attack Zhou Qiyun again. They exchanged blows once more, and the worried old man was injured again. He retreated once more, but the world turned upside down again, making him upside down, and he charged towards Zhou Qiyun for the third time!

They exchanged blows again, and the worried old man suffered even more injuries. He leaped into the air and fled once more.

This time, Zhou Qiyun's cultivation technique was slightly sluggish, allowing the worried old man to escape!

The worried old man spat out blood and fled in panic, thinking, "Zhou Qiyun has made rapid progress. Xu Ying must have given him the true method, not deceiving him! He has cultivated the Qi Refiners' cultivation technique and combined it with the nine levels of the Mud Pill Secret Treasure. His cultivation strength has surpassed mine!"

He hurriedly fled, passing by one mountain after another in the new land. Suddenly, he saw two people playing chess on a mountain ahead. One was an old man in white, and the other was a woman in red. The worried old man was delighted and hurriedly landed!

The two people were the ones who had intercepted Xiao Fengxian. When they saw him injured, they were both surprised and approached to check on him.

The woman in red asked anxiously, "Who injured you?"

The worried old man spat out blood and shouted, "Zhou Qiyun!"

Before he could finish speaking, they felt a dangerous attack coming. The old man in white didn't have time to turn around, so his primordial spirit leaped up and his palm met Zhou Qiyun's Immortal Slaying Finger.

Although it was just a finger, the power of the finger gathered all the strength of his body, and the primordial spirit couldn't withstand it. It was pierced through the palm and penetrated from the back, exploding in the chest!

The old man in white spat out blood, staining his white clothes red.

His strength should not have been so weak, but it was mainly because Zhou Qiyun had launched a surprise attack, catching him off guard, and thus he was severely injured in one blow!

Zhou Qiyun's voice came, "Two more powerful experts, but what does Zhou have to fear?"

The other woman in red flew away, but the world spun around, and the next moment she was pulled back. She leaped and jumped, as if tied to an extremely elastic rope, and was pulled back every time, forced to confront Zhou Qiyun head-on.

After more than ten times, the woman in red spat out blood, looking disheveled.The old man with a worried expression exerted all his strength and attacked Zhou Qiyun, finally forcing Zhou Qiyun to reveal a flaw. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the three of them turned into three streams of light and escaped.

Zhou Qiyun did not pursue them. The turbulent aura gradually calmed down, and a trace of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He stood on the mountaintop in silence for a long time until his qi and blood gradually stabilized.

"It's still not enough. The immortal technique still cannot fully connect with the secret treasure. There are still flaws when it operates."

He swallowed the blood that surged up his throat and silently thought in his heart, "Xu Ying, Yuan Weiyang must decipher the immortal book as soon as possible! I can't wait any longer!"

He sat in front of the chessboard, looking at the half-finished game in front of him. He casually moved the chess pieces with a determined look in his eyes. "Since I met Xu Ying and Yuan Weiyang, I have encountered various obstacles. In the past, I couldn't even meet so many experts in ten or a hundred years, but these few days have been like a fish in water!"

He looked up at the sky and silently said, "Could it be that the heavens have already sensed that I am about to undergo tribulation, so they sent calamities in advance to ruin my chance of ascension? Even if the heavens descend tribulation, I am not afraid at all!"

Zhou Qiyun stood up, put away the chessboard, and collected all the chess pieces in his arms. He tidied up and headed towards Jiuyi Mountain, thinking to himself, "These chess pieces are all treasures, they cannot be wasted."

On the other side, the old man with a worried expression and the other two fled thousands of miles away.

Unable to hold on any longer, they stopped to rest. The three of them looked back and saw that Zhou Qiyun did not chase after them, finally letting out a sigh of relief.

They exchanged glances, all with lingering fear in their hearts.

"To cultivate to the level of Zhou Qiyun, the secret treasure must have been developed to the extreme, right?"

The old man in white frowned and said, "When the Tantian system was developed to replace the Qi cultivation system, did you ever think it would be so powerful?"

The old man with a worried expression shook his head and said, "The secret treasure is indeed powerful, but Zhou Qiyun himself is even more powerful. He has already cultivated the Tantian system to the same level as us, and now he has turned to Qi cultivation. The two paths are advancing side by side and have already achieved some success."

The woman in red carefully wiped away the bloodstains from the corner of her mouth and said, "What's more important is that he has learned the top-level techniques in Qi cultivation. He has dug too many graves."

The old man in white suddenly exclaimed, "My Qingyun Chessboard is still on that mountain!"

The old man with a worried expression casually said, "Leave it on that mountain. We'll go get it later. Can anyone steal it from you? There is something more important now."

He sighed and said, "Ten bowls of Mengpo Soup only exchanged for a short dream. Everyone, Mengpo Soup has lost its effect."

The old man in white and the woman in red were shocked, and the woman in red blurted out, "Could it be that Mengpo diluted the soup with water?"

The old man with a worried expression said, "Even if it's diluted with water, ten bowls would still make him pass out. Mengpo Soup is no longer effective for him. It can't strengthen his seal. At the current rate of deterioration, he will probably break through the seal soon!"

The other two's faces changed dramatically, even showing fear.

The three of them fell silent, unable to speak for a long time.

After a while, the woman in red said bitterly, "In that case, Zhou Qiyun has become his protector? No wonder Zhou Qiyun has repeatedly blocked you. Baidu search for 'Zhou Qiyun's purpose' to read more."

The old man in white's face became serious. From Zhou Qiyun's current performance, it does seem like he is Xu Ying's protector, protecting Xu Ying from being killed by powerful enemies!

If a genius like Zhou Qiyun protects Xu Ying, they will probably have little chance to attack Xu Ying.

"What should we do now?" he murmured.

The old man with a worried expression said, "There's no other way but to report it. You two come with me!"

The old man in white and the woman in red exchanged glances, and the old man in white hesitated, "My Qingyun Chessboard is still on that mountain. This matter is urgent, so we'll go with you first and come back to get the chessboard later!"

The three of them hurriedly rushed to Daozhou.

Daozhou had also been influenced by the new land, with many mountains and rivers appearing, and the geography had changed drastically. The three of them arrived at an inconspicuous dilapidated stone mountain. The mountain was not high, less than twenty zhang. At the foot of the mountain, there was a small earth temple, only half a person tall.

There were couplets on both sides of the temple gate, which read:

The temple is small but the divine power is great

The sky is high and the sun and moon are bright

The old man with a worried expression wrote about the failure of Mengpo Soup on a piece of paper, rolled it into incense, and burned it in front of the earth temple. The three of them stood respectfully, waiting for a response.

This small earth temple seemed inconspicuous, but it was a place of ascension. The incense burned, and the fragrance rose, drifting to the top of the earth temple, connecting to another dimension. The fragrance followed the thin barrier and spread to that dimension.

When the incense paper burned out, a land god jumped out of the earth temple. Unlike other land gods, this land god had no aura of incense.

"You can go back now."

The land god held a yellow paper in his hand, which was a reply, and said, "The higher-ups have already received it. Keep this reply, and when the orders come down, there will be words on the yellow paper. Then you will know how to deal with it."

The old man with a worried expression asked, "This matter is of great importance. May I ask how the higher-ups will arrange it? We also need to be prepared."

The land god impatiently said, "Stop talking nonsense. Don't the higher-ups have procedures to follow? Where does it say that they will finish processing your documents as soon as you hand them in? Besides, I don't know if your materials are prepared enough. If they are not enough, you will have to make several more trips. Go back first and wait for the instructions from the higher-ups. Do you think it will only take a few years?"

"A few years?" The three of them looked at each other, feeling hopeless.

The woman in red said, "This matter is special and should be handled specially. Please urge them!"

The land god sneered, "There are so many things to handle. Which one should I urge? Do I have the authority to urge them? Get out, get out!"

The three of them had no choice but to leave quickly, saying, "Then we'll wait for a while."

The old man in white said, "Let's go back to the mountain first and get my Qingyun Chessboard."

The three of them hurried back to the mountain, but there was no Qingyun Chessboard left, not even a single chess piece.

The three of them stood there, feeling the cool breeze. The corners of the old man in white's mouth twitched, and there were still traces of blood on his clothes.

The old man with a worried expression comforted him, "My Qingzhi Umbrella was also taken by someone. There's nowhere to reason with. If you lost the Qingyun Chessboard, you can refine another one."

In Wutong Palace on Jiuyi Mountain, Xu Ying was still feeling dizzy and dazed, only...Jue felt as if he was drinking not tea, but strong liquor. He thought to himself, "Did that old man with a worried look put something in my tea?"

Seeing Xu Ying's complexion was a bit off, Da Zhong said, "I'm afraid it's not tea in the medicine. What happened?"

Xu Ying recounted the series of events that had happened the night before. Da Zhong and Qi, who were sitting on the clock, were extremely surprised. They hadn't expected so many things to happen while they were away.

Every single event sounded quite interesting.

Da Zhong asked, "Did you really see that black mole on Xiao Die's body? Was it on the left or the right? The left?"

He pondered, "So, what you saw when you entered the Dao was real, and the stupid snake saving you while it was asleep was also real. This is strange, why would entering the Dao encounter such great terror?"

Xu Ying recalled the scene when he entered the Dao and voiced his guess, "I think, the great terror in the abyss is to prevent people from entering the Dao. If one enters too deeply, it will swallow the entrant, causing them to die an unnatural death!"

Qi jumped in fright and said, "Thank goodness I can't enter the Dao. Ah Ying, how did Guo Xiao Die end up on your bed? And she wasn't even dressed. Something's fishy."

"That's not important!"

Xu Ying's face was serious, "The important thing is the second matter, even Xiao Feng Xian couldn't break the seal within me. She said my seal has loosened, but I don't feel anything. We should get rid of Zhou Qi Yun as soon as possible!"

Da Zhong remained silent, and Qi also kept quiet, continuously winking at him.

Xu Ying's heart skipped a beat, but he kept his composure and continued, "So, we need to decipher the Tuo Ya Immortal Book as soon as possible! We need to fully decipher the Tuo Ya Immortal Book to help Elder Zhou achieve Ascension. Once he ascends, we will be free!"

He turned around and saw Zhou Qi Yun standing behind him in the Wutong Palace, having arrived at some unknown time.

Xu Ying was surprised and asked, "When did Elder Zhou arrive?"
