On ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍this day, the heavens suddenly changed.

A ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍streak of firelight appeared at the horizon, blazing intensely, crimson like blood.

The ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍ice and snow of the Northern Plains, which never melted year-round, began to rapidly dissolve at a visible speed.

Glaciers ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍collapsed, snowfields disintegrated, and surging waters gathered into torrents, sweeping across the land.

Countless ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍demon clans fled in panic from their caves, looking toward the horizon with terror in their eyes.

Demon cultivators at the Demon Core stage trembled all over, prostrating on the ground.

Even those of the Transformation Spirit stage revealed fear, summoning their magic treasures and standing on guard.

Atop a ten-thousand-zhang ice peak, the Nine Nether Ice Phoenix stood quietly.

Looking at the firelight on the horizon, there was no fear in its phoenix eyes—only complexity.

This day had finally come.

As early as decades ago, through its innate divine ability, Iceheart Peering into Heaven, it had foreseen today’s scene.

Heavenly fire descending, living beings plunged into suffering.

It had once considered leaving early to avoid this calamity.

However, although that descending existence would land in the Northern Plains, it would not stay there long.

Thus, it had not bothered to relocate.

The firelight on the horizon drew closer and closer.

Finally, it pierced through the clouds and crashed down upon the earth.

The ground trembled, the ice plains shattered.

A massive pillar of fire shot into the sky. Moments later, the flames subsided.

A figure slowly stepped out from within the pillar of fire.

It appeared as a human male.

Tall in stature, with fiery red hair, and a pair of dark crimson eyes.

He wore a scarlet robe embroidered with flame patterns.

His aura burned like fire—wherever he passed, the ground charred black and the air distorted.

The Nine Nether Ice Phoenix’s pupils shrank sharply.

The other party was not human, but a great demon.

A great demon from the Immortal Realm.

Although the aura he emitted was only at the peak of the Tribulation Crossing stage, the pressure from the depths of his bloodline, that unique aura belonging only to Immortal Realm beings, could not deceive it.

This was a fire-attributed great demon that had descended from the Immortal Realm.

After landing, the great demon glanced around.

His gaze swept over the fleeing demon clans, over the collapsing glaciers, and finally landed on the Nine Nether Ice Phoenix.

With just one glance, he looked away.

As if an existence like the Nine Nether Ice Phoenix was nothing more than an ant in his eyes.

The next moment, his figure blurred and shot into the sky, heading straight toward the east.

That direction—Eastern Continent.

......

The name of this great demon was True Lord Scarlet Flame.

Originally a descendant of a Fire Phoenix from the Southern Bright Lihuo Domain of the Immortal Realm, after tens of thousands of years of cultivation, he had reached the Earth Immortal Realm.

This time descending to the lower realm was because he sensed a treasure of utmost importance to him had appeared on a small island in the Eastern Continent of the Spirit Realm.

That treasure was called the Lihuo Mysterious Pearl.

This pearl was a fire-attributed supreme treasure born of heaven and earth, a divine object coveted by all fire-attributed cultivators and beings.

If he could obtain it, he could use it to break through his bottleneck and step into the Heavenly Immortal Realm in one stroke.

To descend, he had paid an enormous price.

Between the Immortal Realm and the Spirit Realm existed a barrier of Heavenly Dao.

Descending was easier—but the cost was immense.

He sealed his cultivation, forcibly suppressing his Earth Immortal Realm down to the Tribulation Crossing stage, and expended three thousand years’ worth of accumulated merit before barely passing through the barrier and arriving in the Spirit Realm.

Moreover, he could only remain for seven days.

After seven days, the power of Heavenly Dao would forcibly send him back to the Immortal Realm.

If he refused to leave, he would be erased by the laws of Heavenly Dao.

Thus, he had to be fast.

True Lord Scarlet Flame transformed into a streak of firelight, rushing southward.

To save time, he even used a divine ability—Heaven-Burning Escape Technique.

Once activated, this technique increased his speed tenfold, covering a thousand li in an instant.

But the cost was severe environmental destruction.

Wherever he passed, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth would ignite, turning into towering flames.

Any being below the Golden Core stage would die instantly if touched by those flames.

Even Golden Core or Transformation Spirit cultivators, if too close, would be gravely injured if not killed.

True Lord Scarlet Flame knew this would cause countless deaths.

But he did not care.

The living beings of the Spirit Realm were nothing but ants in his eyes.

What did it matter if some ants died?

As long as he obtained the Lihuo Mysterious Pearl, everything would be worth it.

The firelight streaked across the sky.

Below lay the lands of the Eastern Continent.

Wherever it passed, vegetation turned to ash and rivers dried up.

Countless villages and towns were reduced to scorched earth in an instant.

Screams and cries rose one after another.

True Lord Scarlet Flame ignored them entirely.

His gaze was fixed firmly ahead.

The small island was getting closer and closer.

......

Eastern Continent, Azure Wave Sect.

Hero Island.

This was the cultivation ground for inner sect disciples of the Azure Wave Sect, nestled among mountains and waters, with beautiful scenery.

At this moment, inside a pavilion, a man and a woman sat together.

The man was an inner sect disciple named Zhou Ming, at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

The woman was also an inner sect disciple, named Li Wan’er, at the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

They sat close together, chatting idly.

“Wan’er, how has your cultivation been lately?” Zhou Ming asked.

Li Wan’er sighed. “Don’t even mention it. I’ve been stuck at the early stage of Foundation Establishment for so long. It always feels like I’m just a little short of breaking through.”

“What about you?”

Zhou Ming smiled. “I just broke through to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment. Feels pretty good.”

Li Wan’er pouted. “Show-off.”

“But speaking of which, have you been going to ask Senior Brother Zhang for guidance again?”

Zhou Ming nodded. “Yeah. Senior Brother Zhang is really kind. Every time I ask, he patiently teaches me.”

“Last time he taught me a sword technique. I practiced it for half a month and gained a lot.”

Li Wan’er blinked. “Speaking of which, that Senior Brother Zhang is quite handsome. Many fellow disciples say he somewhat resembles the Supreme Elder.”

Zhou Ming’s face stiffened. “...Isn’t your focus a bit off?”

Li Wan’er giggled. “What, jealous?”

Zhou Ming coughed and said seriously, “Jealous? Of what? Do I look like that kind of person?”

“Besides, no matter how handsome Senior Brother Zhang is, can he be more handsome than me?”

Li Wan’er looked him up and down. “Hmm… that question deserves some thought.”

Zhou Ming: “……”

Seeing his gloomy expression, Li Wan’er burst into laughter.

“Alright, alright, just teasing you.”

“In my heart, you’re of course the most handsome.”

Zhou Ming’s expression eased slightly as he snorted. “That’s more like it.”

After laughing and chatting for a while, Li Wan’er suddenly turned serious.

“Senior Brother Ming, when do you think we’ll break through to Golden Core?”

“I heard that after Golden Core, we can go to farther places to train.”

“The Spirit Realm is so vast—I haven’t even gone out to see it yet.”

Zhou Ming thought for a moment. “It should be soon.”

“We’re still young. Take it slow—no need to rush.”

“Besides, don’t you remember what Elder Lin said back then?”

Li Wan’er was startled. “What did he say?”

Zhou Ming replied, “On the path of cultivation, persistence is key.”

“Some cultivate quickly, but cannot go far.”

“Some cultivate slowly, but walk steadily.”

“We don’t seek speed—only steady progress, step by step. In the future, we might go even farther.”

Li Wan’er nodded. Just as she was about to speak, her brows suddenly furrowed.

“Hm? Why did it suddenly get so hot?”

Zhou Ming was also startled and quickly sensed something was wrong.

The surrounding air was becoming scorching at a visible speed.

Moments ago, it had been cool and pleasant—now it felt like a furnace.

The two exchanged glances, seeing the same confusion in each other’s eyes.

“What’s going on?”

At the same time, the entire Azure Wave Sect sensed the anomaly.

Outside the mountain gate, disciples on duty looked up at the sky, their expressions changing drastically.

At the horizon, a streak of firelight was rapidly approaching.

That firelight was crimson like blood, tearing through the sky, carrying a destructive, world-burning aura.

Wherever it passed, the sky itself seemed dyed red.

Even from hundreds of li away, the scorching heat was already overwhelming.

“What is that?!”

“Heavens, what is that thing?!”

“Quick! Report to the elders!”

In an instant, chaos erupted throughout the Azure Wave Sect.

......

Nether Soul stood in the void, hands behind his back.

His gaze pierced through hundreds of li of space, landing upon that rapidly approaching firelight.

True Lord Scarlet Flame.

Earth Immortal Realm, self-sealed to the Tribulation Crossing stage.

From the Northern Plains all the way here, committing endless slaughter.

Nether Soul looked at that firelight, a trace of coldness flashing in his eyes.

He wanted to act.

Wanted to crush this beast with a single palm.

But he did not act rashly.

Through his soul, he contacted his true body, Gu Yan.

“A great demon from the Immortal Realm has descended. Earth Immortal Realm, self-sealed to the Tribulation Crossing stage. It has slaughtered its way here from the Northern Plains, causing countless deaths.”

“Can I kill it?”

Moments later, Gu Yan’s voice sounded in his mind.

“Kill it.”

“It has no backing in the Immortal Realm.”

“As for the item it seeks—the Lihuo Mysterious Pearl—it was already taken by the Dragon Lord.”
