'This storage spiritual treasure is convenient, but it obscures the six senses, and it's a bit uncomfortable to stay inside.'

Wu Wang was concerned about the battle outside, but he had confidence in the ability of the Great Elder and Celestial Sword Taoist to escape, so he didn't need to worry too much.

Huh? A gap? He can get out?

Wu Wang emerged from the treasure bag with a smile of joy.

Great success... oh...

Huh?

The sea breeze blew on his face, and the cold ice rain patted his face randomly.

Wu Wang stared at the beautiful goddess standing in front of him, then at the green-clothed woman who was about to crack, and glanced in both directions.

The sea, the crab's back, the storage spiritual bag thrown aside...

"Tsk."

The goddess, Junior Deity of Lifespan, actually covered her mouth and laughed, looking at Wu Wang with complex eyes, staring at the face that she had seen and "missed".

Wu Wang's Adam's apple moved up and down, but at this moment, he still maintained the last dignity of a male human, with a calm expression and a calm gaze.

That feeling, as if his appearance here at this moment was not an accident, but all part of his calculations.

Stand tall and firm!

Junior Deity of Lifespan smiled and said, "Little friend of the Human Emperor, the forgotten friendship of Shen Nong? I never thought that we would meet here."

Wu Wang forced a smile.

What should he do, greet calmly?

Junior Deity of Lifespan actually left the green-clothed woman aside, and her figure flickered several times, leaving several afterimages around Wu Wang, observing him from various angles.

She leisurely said, "Unexpected gains indeed."

Wu Wang:...

What's going on?

Did the Great Elder and Celestial Sword Taoist defect? That doesn't seem right... The battle just now was too intense, and he was "teleported" by the Great Elder, flying out from his sleeve?

Did the Great Elder use too much soap while bathing, causing his shoulder to slip because of the alcohol?

At this moment, Wu Wang could only suppress the heavy doubts in his heart. Complaining and blaming wouldn't solve the problem. Finding a solution was what he should do.

So, he revealed his perfect Dao realm in the Ascending to Immortality stage, concealed his spiritual fluctuations, and even retracted his spiritual consciousness into his body.

As a grand deity of the Heavenly Palace and the Heavenly Emperor's right-hand man, would they bully an insignificant ant like him?

Of course, they would.

Junior Deity of Lifespan's gaze became sharp, slowly sweeping across Wu Wang's face. She smiled and said, "Should I kill you here and make your old friend Shen Nong sad, or should I take you to the Heavenly Palace and let them see who Shen Nong's chosen successor is?"

Wu Wang calmly smiled, but still tried to reduce his "threat level".

He said, "Does Junior Deity of Lifespan really think that the inheritor of the Human Emperor, who can appear here and be easily captured by you, is me?"

Junior Deity of Lifespan's lips curled into a faint smile.

"You are quite good at sophistry.

I just want to see if anyone from the Human Realm will come to rescue you, or if they will hand you over to my elder brother and see how he will deal with the Human Realm."

Wu Wang deliberately changed the topic, "Elder brother? Deputy Deity of Lifespan? According to rumors, aren't you two a couple?"

"Hmph!"

A divine light flashed around Junior Deity of Lifespan, and Wu Wang felt as if his whole body had turned to stone, unable to move from his Elemental Infant outward.

"I'll deal with you later."

She said indifferently, with a hint of disgust in her eyes.

Wu Wang:...

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't defeat her, and he was afraid that his mother couldn't defeat her either, and he was worried about causing trouble for his own clan, he, as the esteemed Young Master of the North Wilderness, the legitimate Lord of the Punishment Hall in the Human Realm, and the prospective son-in-law of the Human Emperor, would he endure this humiliation?

What should he do?

It seems that Xiao Gu Duo and the others have been rescued. Judging from the number of people who were rescued and those who were left behind, it seems that they are not at a disadvantage.

But personally, he would definitely be at a disadvantage, and not just a little bit. His whole life would be tainted with darkness.

Is there any possibility of turning the tables?

Should he just accept it?

The worst result is death... No, if Junior Deity of Lifespan wants to use him as bait, and if the Human Realm comes to rescue, a big battle is inevitable.

Wu Wang fell into contemplation, standing on the turtle shell, looking at Junior Deity of Lifespan playing with the Gate of Resentful Souls that he had seen before.

However, at this moment, the gate was suppressed by Junior Deity of Lifespan's divine power, and it didn't look too terrifying.

The giant crab squatted obediently in the sea, and its shell was as stable as land.

Junior Deity of Lifespan seemed to be pondering how to deal with the Gate of Resentful Souls. Her habits were somewhat similar to Ling Xianzi's - they both liked to walk in the air.

Wu Wang sighed inwardly:

[If the experts from the Human Realm don't come to rescue later, it's fine. But if a large number of experts from the Human Realm come to rescue, he's afraid it will be difficult for him to escape.]

This place is too close to the Yang Valley, and there must be powerful innate gods hidden in the Yang Valley, but they have never appeared before.

The senior should know, right?

Moreover, Wu Wang shouldn't be that important to the Human Realm and the senior, right?

If the answer to this question is affirmative, why does he feel a little disappointed?

Wu Wang pondered solutions outside the Human Realm, but he subconsciously isolated his mother and the North Wilderness. Even if he was insulted, humiliated, and disgraced by Junior Deity of Lifespan later, he couldn't involve his mother and his own clan!

What situation could be worse than knowing that he would die but still rushing towards the wormhole?

Come on!

Wu Wang stared at the goddess, waiting for the moment when he could speak and open his mouth!

"Huh?"

Junior Deity of Lifespan glanced at him with the corner of her eye, but didn't pay any attention to him. She continued to focus on the Gate of Resentful Souls in front of her, lost in thought.

In this way, she stood quietly for half an hour.

For Wu Wang, it was the first time he could observe the true form of a deity at such a close distance.

Junior Deity of Lifespan, as a goddess of the Great Wasteland, indeed had a temperament that was completely different from cultivators and immortals. After all, immortals had to merge with the heavens and the earth, while she seemed to be the condensation of the essence of the heavens and the earth, the will of the heavens and the earth.

"Are gods and the various races truly the same existence?"

Junior Deity of Lifespan raised her right hand, and her slender and fair palm brushed past. Suddenly, dark clouds appeared around the giant crab, and under the dark clouds, lightning flickered as thunder dragons rushed into the sea.

Wu Wang caught a glimpse of it with his peripheral vision. More than ten figures were forced out of the sea, retreating towards the distance.

The Great Elder and Celestial Sword Taoist were present.

Wu Wang felt a slight warmth, but still wanted them to leave.

Things can be done once or twice, but not three times. The reason why the sneak attack was effective before was largely because Junior Deity of Lifespan didn't care much about the Heavenly Immortals they wanted to save.

But this Master Wuwang had clashed with Junior Deity of Lifespan together with the Heavenly Emperor!

At that time, Shen Nong intended to have a "three-party talk" and mentioned him everywhere and asked him questions. But Junior Deity of Lifespan didn't know Wu Wang's background. In her eyes, Shen Nong treated Wu Wang extremely well.

Unexpectedly, that meeting could really become today's "foreshadowing".

Who should he reason with?

"Next, we can't be disturbed."

Junior Deity of Lifespan murmured softly, and a small jade disc appeared on her fingertip. She flicked her finger towards the east.

A stream of light flashed, and immediately, streams of light flew out from the direction of Yang Valley and shot towards this place.

After a moment, more than a hundred humanoid beings wearing golden armor and with wings on their backs appeared in the sky above the giant crab. They were all over ten meters tall, with their faces hidden behind face masks. They spread out evenly near the giant crab, guarding the edges of the dark clouds on all sides.

Yang Valley guards?

Wu Wang felt a pressure close to the Heavenly Immortal realm from them.

Just as these guards settled down, two figures appeared, one to the south and one to the north, hidden in the high sky.

Wu Wang sensed two powerful and subtle fluctuations of divine power. Obviously, two Sky Gods were guarding the north and south, protecting Junior Deity of Lifespan here.

Junior Deity of Lifespan no longer paid much attention to her surroundings. Facing the Gate of Resentful Souls, her figure floated in mid-air, and white lightning burst from her fingertips, completely entwining the Gate of Resentful Souls.

The resentful spirits inside let out a mournful cry.

Wu Wang was too close and was also affected by the power of the resentful spirits' divine consciousness, feeling a chill all over his body.

When the white lightning was about to shatter the Gate of Resentful Souls, Junior Deity of Lifespan stopped and continued to ponder.

It seemed that she didn't want to destroy these resentful spirits.

At this moment, Wu Wang had almost figured it out. The Ten-Day Festival, the encounter with the Rain Mistress in the ancient country, and Junior Deity of Lifespan's appearance at this moment were all inevitably related.

It seemed that the Heavenly Palace wanted to create something similar to an "Evil God" by cultivating resentful spirits, in order to achieve a certain goal.

Junior Deity of Lifespan was in charge of the reproduction of living beings, representing new life and encompassing life in the order of the Heavenly Palace.

Her arrival was just to complete the final step of this plan.

【Bestow New Life】.

What could he do with this?

Or what could he do with this?

Could he make use of Junior Deity of Lifespan's inherent arrogance and arrogance?

Wu Wang stood there and fell into contemplation again. This matter was related to his life and death, and he had to be cautious.

What he didn't know was that in the sky above the ancient sea of this country, which was about to be bathed in the sunlight, in the temple of the endless starry sky, seven figures were standing quietly because of his presence.

Cang Xue was also contemplating at this moment, but the question she was considering was whether she should appear now to save her Ba'er.

The worst result would be to have a falling out with the Heavenly Palace. She would hang the "sword" in her hand above the Heavenly Palace.

This sword—destroy the connection between the Star God and the Heavenly Palace, separate the Stellar Dao from the seal of the Heavenly Emperor, and burn the body of the Star God, triggering the early return of the ancient gods and destroying the current order of the world.

What would be the consequences?

In fact, the timing is not ripe for this now, both for the Heavenly Palace and for the ancient gods who have been exiled outside the heavens.

Cang Xue didn't want to meddle in these matters.

In her most difficult moment, how could she step by step become the Seven-Day Festival under the gaze of the Star God and the Star God's divine artifact, without any support?

As a couple with Xiong Han for a lifetime, she would not interfere with Xiong Han's choice of lifespan. Even if Xiong Han chose not to extend his lifespan in the future, she would fulfill her promise as a wife and accompany him through thick and thin.

But if anyone touched her only child, the piece of flesh that fell from her body.

Then don't blame her for not caring about divine virtues or consequences.

Behind Cang Xue, the eyes of the six Sun Festival participants burst with a green divine light. The majestic body of the Star God had already lit up a faint light in the depths of the starry sky.

Cang Xue looked coldly at the back of the giant crab.

How the situation would develop now depended on Junior Deity of Lifespan's thoughts and what kind of decision Wu Wang could make to save himself.

...

"What are you waiting for?"

Six thousand miles south of the giant crab, the figures hidden in the high clouds and mist in the sky remained silent.

Lin Qi faced them directly, being pressed down by two Lin family guards, but he still cursed through gritted teeth:

"What are you waiting for? If the Heavenly Immortals can go and save, if Dalang Gu Duo can go and save, can't my teacher be saved? Can't you make way if you don't want to save?"

"Lin Qi!" Celestial Sword Taoist scolded, "Stop causing trouble! Who here isn't more anxious than you?"

"Then what are you waiting for? Won't those gods from the Heavenly Palace really kill my teacher? Who is my teacher? Don't they know?"

An elder said, "Precisely because they know, they won't kill Lord Wuwang now. Instead, they will use Lord Wuwang for more calculations. The Heavenly Palace has always acted like this."

"I am ashamed of the Human Realm, ashamed of the Sect Master..."

The Great Elder trembled all over, tears streaming down his face. There was anger and determination in his eyes.

But the Great Elder was also stopped by the high-level experts from the Human Realm who had just arrived. There were already seven or eight Transcendents here, and more experts were still on their way. It seemed that the high-level of the Human Realm was urgently discussing this matter.

At this moment, Ling Xiaolan was quite calm. She sat quietly behind the group of experts, wiping the short sword in her hand. Several experts from the Mysterious Female Sect stood behind her.

Dongfang Mumu suddenly spoke, "If we keep waiting, won't more and more gods come?"

"But we don't have any strong experts who can match Junior Deity of Lifespan at the moment. Moreover, it's not just Junior Deity of Lifespan. The god closest to us besides Junior Deity of Lifespan is She Bi Shi, who is in the north. These are the experts guarding Yang Valley for the Heavenly Palace.

Moreover, if a major battle really breaks out, I'm afraid it will also alarm another Primordial God in Yang Valley..."

Celestial Sword Taoist whispered:

"I am to blame for losing Lord Wuwang. It is my fault. Even if I have to exchange my life, I want to bring Lord Wuwang back. But we can't be impatient. No one can predict the consequences if we take action now.

At this moment, I believe that our Master has already consulted with the Heavenly Emperor. We just need our Master..."

"He's here."Suddenly, there were slight fluctuations in the surrounding universe. A silent crack opened up, and Liu Bairen's figure emerged from it, followed by several other figures, the second of which was Feng Yezi.

The transcendent dao stood tall in the depths of the East Sea.

In the Eight Pavilions of the Human Realm, four pavilion masters appeared here.

The top experts of the eighteen sects of the Ten Great Immortal and Demon Sects of the Human Realm were called here.

Liu Bairen's expression became solemn like never before as he revealed his own dao in the world, facing away from everyone and overlooking the gods.

"His Majesty has given orders for us to wait.

If Master Wuwang cannot free himself, then we will spare no effort to rescue him."

The cultivators nodded to each other and most of them sat down, adjusting their own aura to the best state.

Suddenly, a dragon's roar was heard, and the cultivators and gods all turned their gaze to the east.

There, like the dawn breaking, a golden carriage floated in the air. From the carriage, a figure sat quietly, gazing at the gathering of experts in the Human Realm, causing the cultivators to feel pressure.

After the Heavenly Emperor, the God of the Sun.

Xi He.

...

On the back of the crab, Junior Deity of Lifespan furrowed her brows slightly and glanced at Wu Wang, who couldn't move.

"You're so important?"

As she spoke, Wu Wang's body returned to normal, and he could finally speak.

He immediately closed his eyes tightly... his eyes were dry.

Then, Wu Wang chuckled, imitating Junior Deity of Lifespan's voice, and said, "You're so inflexible."

"What? Do you want me to let you go?"

Junior Deity of Lifespan floated down from mid-air and suspended herself in front of Wu Wang. "The Heavenly Emperor cannot leave the Heavenly Palace, but the Human Emperor can leave the Human Realm."

"Our indulgence in the Human Realm is actually just to avoid too much damage."

Junior Deity of Lifespan's voice was pleasant, relaxed, and natural. She said, "Generation after generation, the Human Realm is inferior. The sparks created by the Fire God will eventually be worn down by time.

In the ever-changing era of gods, living beings have not been without their peak, but they are ultimately just living beings, parasitic in the world, not the masters of the world.

We have never regarded you as opponents. The opponents of gods can only be gods."

"Is that so?"

Wu Wang looked towards the Gate of Resentful Souls. "What if I, as a member of the human race, can help you solve the problems that you cannot solve? How would you feel?"

"Oh?"

Junior Deity of Lifespan floated back, her hair and skirt fluttering in the wind.

She stared at Wu Wang and said, "Do you know what I am doing?"

"Creating gods."

Wu Wang crossed his arms, trying to appear more confident, and said slowly, "You have planned a god-creating event that spans countless years in the Rain Mistress' Country. Among the power of the minds of living beings, hatred is the strongest and the easiest to generate.

But hatred is extremely difficult to control, and resentful souls cannot become an existence like the Evil God. You also don't want to create a monster that only knows how to kill. It is of no benefit to the Heavenly Palace.

Is the Heavenly Palace also exploring how to use the potential of living beings?

It's just that you inherently disregard living beings, which is why you made such a decision."

Junior Deity of Lifespan fell silent.

Wu Wang asked, "How many witches from the Rain Mistress' Country have you tortured to create this gate?"

"Including the one over there, it should be around a hundred thousand."

Junior Deity of Lifespan looked at the large gate, her gaze slightly complicated, and said calmly, "Let me tell you, the god who created the Ten-Day Sacrifice is different from me. He never observes living beings and has no sympathy for you.

I, on the other hand, think that all living beings are beautiful, and the birth of living beings is even more beautiful. I often sit among the flowers and plants, watching them sprout and grow from the muddy and cold earth, adorning the originally dull world with vibrant colors.

Do you know, this is something that makes me intoxicated...

Hmph!"

Junior Deity of Lifespan suddenly realized that she shouldn't have said these things and put on a fierce expression, staring at Wu Wang and said in a low voice, "You know too much."

Wu Wang:...

Weren't you just talking to yourself?

"Ah, why did I suddenly go deaf? The wind on the sea is so strong.

Anyway, let's talk seriously. If I can help you solve the current problem, will you let me go?"

"Help me? With you?"

"With me," Wu Wang smiled and said, "I am a close friend of the Human Emperor. His Majesty the Human Emperor respects my opinions very much, have you forgotten?

If you have no other solution, why not try the wisdom of living beings?

If I fail, the current situation will not change.

If I succeed, you will have completed your mission for this trip, and we can avoid a war that neither of us can control. It will be beneficial for both of us."

Junior Deity of Lifespan impatiently said, "You always try to talk to me as equals."

"Oh," Wu Wang bowed with his hands clasped together, "this esteemed goddess, may I ask for your mercy in a bet?"

Junior Deity of Lifespan remained silent, seemingly considering.

In the Starry Sky Temple, Cang Xue furrowed her brows slightly as she looked at Wu Wang, who was now leading the conversation, and couldn't help but glance at Junior Deity of Lifespan a few times...

Although they were enemies, opponents, and archrivals, it was widely known in the divine circle that this guy was naive and carefree.

Hmm... not bad...

"Alright."

Junior Deity of Lifespan floated to the side, but her voice echoed in Wu Wang's mind.

She said, "The Heavenly Palace needs a minor god to patrol the four seas and solve the problem of accumulating resentful souls in various places.

What I cannot solve at the moment is the hatred of these resentful spirits. They cannot calm down, resist my call, and cannot reveal their divinity."

"Let's give it a try."

Wu Wang clasped his hands together and stared at the gate.

At this moment, he not only saw the terrifying eye inside the gate, but also the unquenchable hatred within.

No wonder Junior Deity of Lifespan was so troubled.

This couldn't be resolved with divine power or controlled by gods. They could only take another path.

Wu Wang sighed softly, "Can you make that woman in the green dress appear?"

Junior Deity of Lifespan said, "She is just the manifestation of the resentful spirits."

Wu Wang said, "But that is what these tortured witches hoped to look like before they died."

"Alright."

Junior Deity of Lifespan raised her right hand, and strands of divine light surrounded her. Soft white light bloomed from her fingertips.The grand door crumbled into a mist of grey, reforming into the woman in green.

She stared at the Junior Deity of Lifespan, ready to pounce and fight, but was bound by chains that materialized out of thin air.

The woman in green let out a series of mournful howls, struggling and crying incessantly.

Hatred, fear, madness, destruction.

She seemed to be the embodiment of all negativity.

Wu Wang sat down cross-legged, holding a clay flute, and blew out a sobbing sound.

He had been pondering how to soothe the resentful spirits. The first thing that came to mind was various scriptures, such as the Buddhist scriptures from his previous life.

Unfortunately, he hadn't memorized any.

Now, he could only use music as a medium, just like the first time he met the woman in green, communicating with her through music.

The clay flute was a popular instrument in the North Wilderness.

Wu Wang didn't observe the woman in green, but played a desolate tune on the clay flute. It was as if an old man wandering the world was sighing and wailing at the end of his journey.

When Wu Wang stopped playing and looked up, the woman in green was standing on the back of a crab, her cheeks wet with tears, her head bowed as she sobbed.

"I can't really persuade you to be open-minded," Wu Wang said softly.

"I can't understand your pain, nor can I know the suffering you've endured.

I'm trying to persuade you now, just so I can survive. This might be the most despicable thing I've ever done.

I'm sorry."

The woman in green slowly raised her head, looking at Wu Wang, but said:

"Will you stay with me?

I'm so lonely, I want someone to accompany me. Can you play for me every day?

As long as you enter its mouth, we can always be together."

Wu Wang shook his head with a smile.

She was still saying those harmful words, it seemed that's all she knew.

Just like an instinct, to devour the souls of living beings.

Wu Wang said, "You hate the Great Wasteland, don't you?"

The woman in green showed a faintly beautiful smile, murmuring those instinctive words, looking so poignant.

"Do you hate the Rain Master's Concubine Kingdom?

You can understand what I'm saying, because you all once ensured the smooth weather for the Rain Master's Concubine Kingdom, and to protect your own people, generation after generation, you voluntarily went to those earth towers.

Isn't that right?"

The woman in green remained silent.

Wu Wang continued:

"When I first saw this giant crab here, I was thinking... The giant crab stirred up the waves, but used its pincers to block the sides of the waves, so they wouldn't affect the living beings in the north and south of the Rain Master's Concubine Kingdom.

Because you only hate them, right?

Even in this state, you still retain that kindness, don't you?"

Tears streamed down the woman in green's cheeks again, breaking into specks of light as they fell from her chin.

She kept repeating, "Will you stay with me?"

Wu Wang looked at the Junior Deity of Lifespan and said something through Voice Transmission.

The Junior Deity of Lifespan gently shook her soft fingers, and a somewhat terrifying body emerged from the light, placed between the woman in green and Wu Wang.

This was the girl who had sacrificed herself in the Sun Festival ten days ago.

Wu Wang didn't dare to look too much, he sighed in his heart, and simply said:

"She's still alive."

The woman in green was taken aback, she looked down at the girl covered in green, who still had a faint breath, her eyes full of sorrow, and reached out to touch her.

The chains around her slowly dissipated.

The woman in green sat down next to the girl, raised her hand to touch the girl's face, her eyes filled with tears, her hands trembling.

Wu Wang sat quietly, having done all he could.

So he lowered his head and started playing the clay flute again, the tune still as desolate as before.

"Will you stay with me?"

The woman in green asked softly, behind her appeared two hazy grey shadows, which trembled lightly and then turned into four, eight, sixteen...

In a moment, the place was filled with grey shadows.

Fierce aura, malicious aura;

Resentment, lament, anger.

Ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine grey shadows, emitting a strong sense of foreboding.

The severely injured girl lying there, her finger trembled slightly;

Her disfigured body was trying to raise her hand to wipe the tears from the woman in green's cheeks.

A shadow of a door appeared in mid-air.

The severely injured girl made a weak sound, speaking would cause her immense pain, but she said:

"I... can..."

"Mm," the woman in green's tears were flowing, she looked at the girl, looked at herself after the past suffering, tears falling drop by drop.

The foreheads of the surrounding grey shadows lit up with faint light.

At this moment, Wu Wang closed his eyes, as if he could see:

A group of black-skinned girls with skin as shiny as silk, playing and frolicking in the forest, running and chasing on the beach, swinging their bare feet on the tree branches, singing and laughing hand in hand.

Those faint lights were gathering;

The originally terrifying ancient door was gradually turning golden;

It then scattered into a fine rain of light, enveloping the severely injured girl, gradually restoring her body, strengthening her breath and consciousness, allowing her to sob out loud, covering her face and crying.

A misty light rose from the sea, like the aurora Wu Wang had always wanted to see in his previous life but never had.

It seemed as if the world had become peaceful.

Those figures watching this place were just quietly watching.

The goddess sitting on the divine chariot had a gentle smile;

The Taoist standing on the cloud showed a hint of emotion in his eyes;

Those figures who had gathered on the beach at some point, knelt down towards the light, sobbing softly.

"Hey?"

A call, Wu Wang stopped playing and opened his eyes.

In front of him was the woman in green, her figure had become incredibly faint, she nodded at Wu Wang.

"Thank you."

Wu Wang shook his head with a smile.

A breeze blew, the woman in green dispersed like light smoke, leaving only the girl in green, sobbing continuously.

"Ah..."

Wu Wang sighed softly, somewhat lost in thought, in the end, he couldn't say anything, he just slowly got up from his seated position.

...

...

...

'May the world be as beautiful as you imagine.
