The Yellow River of Nine Winds flowed at an incredible speed. The white froth washed over the riverbank.

The sound of the water disturbed the quiet peace of the surroundings. It was like a melodious melody that made everyone daydream.

At that moment, a man holding a gourd and wine pot was walking on the river.

He looked drunk and seemed as though he would fall into the river at any moment.

He took a big swig of the wine and exclaimed at how good it was.

He staggered and fell into the river.

With a splash, he was submerged in the water.

Under the water, Si Cheng descended rapidly and passed through sand and mud. He arrived in front of a palace.

There was a vortex here, and he was instantly sucked into it.

He fell heavily to the ground.

After a long time, he stood up and patted his clothes clean.

There was not a single drop of water on him.

There was no sand in the river.

It was as if he had just fallen on hard ground and gotten up without a scrape.

“You’re back?” Wan Xiu walked out.

Bi Zhu and Qiao Yi were also there.

“It was so far away. It’s quite tiring to go back and forth.” Si Cheng sat down. “There isn’t any good wine nearby either.”

“Good wine?” Bi Zhu thought for a moment and said, “I remember that there is a master brewer in Nine Songs Town. The wine is not bad.”

“Really?” Si Cheng’s eyes lit up. “Shall we go take a look then?”

“That is… We haven’t finished exploring this place yet,” said Bi Zhu awkwardly.

She was not leaving yet.

She wanted to leave when the issue was resolved. He might die outside the palace.

If immortal sects could swoop in and fix things, she would stay put.

“What are you afraid of?” Wan Xiu asked curiously.

‘I’m afraid of dying.’ Bi Zhu thought.

It was the end of April, and Gu Changsheng would appear to talk to her in the next two days.

“Are you afraid of the danger out there?” Si Cheng was a little surprised. “You have a senior at the Primordial Spirit Realm following you. It’s normal for dangers to exist in the world. Are you still afraid despite having someone in the Primordial Spirit Realm to protect you?”

“A cultivation of the Primordial Spirit Realm is very extraordinary,” Wan Xiu added.

Qiao Yi lowered her head. She felt ashamed. She felt weak and useless.

“That’s true. There is someone at the Primordial Spirit Realm beside me, so I don’t need to be afraid of many things,” said Bi Zhu and nodded.

“That’s right. We’ve traveled the cultivation world for so long, but we’ve rarely seen a Primordial Spirit Realm cultivator,” Si Cheng said. “Let’s go buy some wine.”

They walked side by side and left the Human Emperor’s Palace.

“Senior, did you give the dragon egg to the person?” Bi Zhu asked.

“I did,” said Si Cheng who nodded. “He seems like a decent person. I like him. It’s a pity he was only at the peak of the Golden Core Realm. We could have been friends.”

Bi Zhu was speechless.

“How’s the situation over there?” Bi Zhu asked. “I heard that something big happened over there recently.”

“Yeah, the situation isn’t optimistic. People might end up dead. We might end up dead while drinking our wine,” Si Cheng said bluntly.

Bi Zhu was speechless.

She felt that it was better to return to the Human Emperor’s Palace. There was no need for her to wander into danger.

Unfortunately, she was still young and had no choice but to be embroiled in things she could not control.

The southern region was not like it used to be.

Everyone was friendly then. Her life had been easier.

“It’s so dangerous outside. Did you two find anything, Seniors?” Bi Zhu asked.

“Of course, we did,” said Si Cheng. “I already left something behind. Now, it’s up to Wan Xiu.”

“Me?” Wan Xiu smiled.

“I’ve left some means as well, but they only address the symptoms, not the root cause. They serve merely as assistance. Who knows what the situation over there is exactly,” he added.

Bi Zhu was silent.

After talking with Gu Changsheng, she would find a way to report to Jing that everything was in order.

The rest would depend on the immortal sects.

Beyond that, she was helpless.

At the Astronomical Academy, Yan Yuezhi arrived in the backyard.

“Little girl, why are you here again?” Jing Dajiang asked while holding the teapot.

“I have something to tell you, Senior.” Yan Yuezhi bowed.

It had been much more difficult for her to reach here.

“If you have something to say, look for the Sect master. Why do you always look for us old geezers?” Jing Dajiang said unhappily.

Why did she have to come with very bad news every time? It was always a life-and-death situation with her.

“I don’t know where the Sect master is,” Yan Yuezhi said.

“So? Why do you need us again?” Jing Daijiang asked.

“The situation isn’t good. It’s said that the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl has been activated and is expanding in the South. It’s not suppressed right now,” Yan Yuezhi said.

“The Bright Moon Sect has intervened. The other immortal sects can’t interfere. Someone has already gone over there, but it won’t be enough.” Jing Dajiang drank his tea. “If it really doesn’t work out, we can prepare for a big funeral.”

Yan Yuezhi was speechless.

She was stunned for a moment before she appeared in front of the backyard’s threshold.

It was as if he had never stepped in.

Everything felt like a dream.

Yan Yuezhi shook her head and left.

She had already done what could. She was not sure what would happen after this.

However, she did not expect that the Bright Moon Sect had already interfered.

They acted fast.

After Jiang Hao sealed the Xuanyuan Sword, he returned to the edge of the lake.

When he saw the lake again, he realized it had expanded to the foot of the mountain. It would not be long before the entire mountain disappeared into the lake.

There was no life around the lake. Even birds and insects avoided going near it.

He thought that all the cultivators would disappear unless they found higher ground.

The lake grew higher and higher.

No one dared to come close.

Jiang Hao found Zheng Shijiu and the others. They were all still waiting for orders, but they were terrified that the lake would expand and drown them.

It was expanding quicker than before.

Jiang Hao sighed.

Previously, it was because of the help of the Fallen Immortal Clan that the lake was expanding/ It seemed that even without their influence, the lake was capable of expanding rapidly.

The Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl could erupt at any time.

“Is everyone out?” Jiang Hao asked Senior Brother Zheng.

“I haven’t seen anyone come out from the moment they went in,” he said.

Jiang Hao lowered his head. It seemed that the people who went in were doomed.

Even with the lantern bearer leading the way, they might not be able to come out alive.

He could enter and exit safely because he did not cross over to a new world. Otherwise, no one knew what would happen.

The new world was definitely different from the old world. He had no idea what was going on inside.

Who would know anything about the Dream World?

After a moment of silence, Jiang Hao finally decided.

It was not good to stay here for long. He needed to prevent the lake from erupting and covering the entire place.

He had to increase the distance between him and the lake.

In addition, he would leave behind a Mountain Sea Seal in the surrounding area. The seal had the power to suppress. He hoped it would help even if it was for a short time.

Three days later, the gathering was held.

Jiang Hao heaved a sigh of relief.

It was finally here!

It was time for him to enter the stone tablet.
