Western Fields, a nameless mountain.

A very aged old man rode the wind to this place. The old man’s enormous eyebrows were pure white, as were his beard and whiskers, yet his eyes were like dim candles. Although he was in his advanced years, his every movement exuded formidable power. The old man did not need a riding sword to soar hundreds of zhang through the sky. He was one with Heaven and Earth, having reached Lord Of Heaven Realm.

Old trees grew all over the infertile mountainscape. Boundless yellow earth covered the area, but Earth Essence Qi was emitted from the ground. This Earth Essence Qi corresponded to the “Earth Element” of the “Five Elements,” which were very blessed grounds.

Seeing this place, the old man’s dim eyes suddenly burned like torches.

“It was not a waste for This Old Man to have entered the Western Fields. It seems This Old Man will be able to find this Earth Essence Red Ginseng.1 Once the Red Sage is obtained, This Old Man can live for another fifty generations. This Old Man will use this blessed earth to cultivate well for a month, truly wonderful.” The old man muttered to himself. Although he had powerful Lord Of Heaven Realm, he was helpless to resist the passage of time. The moment his Realm were to be unable to advance a step, his longevity and lifetime of cultivation would vanish into dust.

Cultivators said that only Lords Of Heaven who passed through Return To Truth Nine Calamities could live as long as the heavens. Before this point, longevity was extremely important to cultivators.

The old man’s Divine Intent swept through this mountain. The Earth Essence Red Ginseng had sentience and could travel as they pleased through the earth. Once detected by his Divine Intent, they could not escape.

“Show yourself to This Old Man!!”

The Lord Of Heaven’s voice was like thunder, resounding.

The yellow qi of the earth gushed like a swelling tide. A ginseng jumped out of the ground and endlessly scattered.

The old man looked. This was none other than the Earth Essence Red Ginseng. The old man flipped his wrist to reveal a “Sun-covering Bag” treasure. Every golden ray of this treasure was like magma, emitting scorching beams of light. The Earth Essence Red Ginseng was particularly sensitive, for among the Five Elements, Fire engendered Earth. To capture the Red Ginseng, it was necessary to use an engendering treasure. Once used, other attributes might make the Red Ginseng lose its spiritual power.

The Lord Of Heaven walked forward, stepping onto the ground. That Red Ginseng scurried about endlessly, drilling in and out of the ground, but no matter where it ran, it could not escape the Lord Of Heaven’s magic energy.

The old man gently moved his hand. The Sun-covering Bag flew towards the Earth Essence Red Ginseng, instantly capturing it. The Red Ginseng let out an infant-like wail and struggled. The old man looked in satisfaction at this Red Ginseng and then looked for a place to refine it.

Seeing that he obtained the Spirit Medicine he wanted so easily, the old man sighed in relief.

The old man prepared to look for a hidden location to avoid the qilin while he refined this Earth Essence Qi. All of a sudden, a terrible air blew by, and the Sun-covering Bag was surprisingly disintegrated by this power. The Red Ginseng that was formerly inside the bag drilled into the ground with a whoosh. The old man turned his head around in shock to see a gigantic and absolutely gorgeous Spirit Beast wrapped in white jade light staring covetously at him with its tiger eyes.

“White Tiger!!”

The color drained from the old man’s face. His finger moved, and boundless magic energy was unleashed. Innumerable Flying Swords descended upon the White Tiger, and a Little Thousand World also unfolded towards it in an attempt to trap it.

The White Tiger growled, shattering the Little Thousand World. The Lord Of Heaven’s Flying Swords were scattered by white light.

The old man turned around and fled.

Holy Beast White Tiger. Only Return To Truth Nine Aftermath Lords Of Heaven were qualified to be able to fight it. He came to the Western Fields not to actually hunt qilin, but only to search for treasure.

The Lord Of Heaven urged on his boundless magic energy, instantly fleeing several thousand li. He turned his head to look, and the Lord Of Heaven was frightened out of his wits. That white shadow was following close behind, its speed honestly like a white steed flitting by. Even he was unable to track it clearly.

Not good.

That white shadow pounced in his face, and a terrifying Star Energy swatted at him from the White Tiger’s paw. The Lord Of Heaven resisted with all his might, using magic treasures and his powers. The White Tiger opened its jaws and bit the Lord Of Heaven to death. The Four Symbols Holy Beast’s power was immense. Even a Lord Of Heaven would be seriously injured by this bite. The old man still struggled on death’s door.

The White Tiger chewed a few more times, and the Lord Of Heaven let out a scream. He was unable to resist the White Tiger’s formidable power and was bitten to death without the strength to resist. Then, the White Tiger gnawed on flesh and Primordial Spirit for its meal.

“Above is Turtle Beak Mansion,2 heroic in quality, solemn in quiet, mighty and quick, whose roar moves the river of stars…Pity, for you are also one of the Four Symbols of Heaven. By all rights, you should be protecting one of the four cardinal directions, esteemed for all ages. But now, you have been reduced to a man-eating beast. How lamentable.”

As the White Tiger devoured the Lord Of Heaven’s Primordial Spirit, a voice as clear as a flowing spring came from behind it.

“Wave Quelling Dragon King” Ma Yuan looked at the Holy Beast in front of her, showing an expression of sorrow and grief.

The Four Symbols White Tiger finished the Primordial Spirit and glared at the woman. Its eyes showed a vicious glint. It smelled the sweet Star Energy emanating from the woman’s body.

“Just let me free you, return you to the heavens.”

Ma Yuan revealed her Star Weapon, Water And Heaven United. All of a sudden, a hundred meter long river appeared. This river was like a whip, dancing like silk in the Wave Quelling Dragon King’s hands. A wave shaped like a dragon rolled endlessly, very quickly submerging the nearby hundred li of wilderness.

The White Tiger roared, having suffered the opponent’s strength. The Holy Beast’s aura shook in all direction, nearly dispersing all of the waves.

“For the princess!!”

With these words, Ma Yuan promptly charged towards the White Tiger.

The intense clash of weapons over the Western Fields threw sparks, the clanging collisions pouring endlessly into the ears.

The Ten Thousand Hu Dragon Combat Dagger-axe slashed out a scorching wind that malevolently nipped at Chen Mo. Zhou Panlong left him no leeway as she used her Yellow Rank and Dark Rank relentlessly. But Chen Mo’s Star Energy was more powerful than she had imagined.

No matter how profoundly a Star Warrior’s Star Energy was trained, it could not possibly be as skilled or impeccable as a Star General who naturally possessed a Star Name. But Chen Mo’s every move and technique were flawlessly mixing Star Energy into them. Everything flowed smoothly without the slightest opening.

This was even more practiced than a Star General.

In Star World, only a few exceedingly rare Astral Treasures were capable of allowing a Star Warrior to wield their Star Energy so freely to this extent.

“The Star Manual Of Masters Gan And Shi? You have this treasures?” Zhou Panlong kept her composure and asked. The Star Manual was able to let a cultivator convert magic energy into Star Energy. It was Star World’s strongest Star Energy magic treasure. When the Foreign Star Fields invaded, it was thanks to Bi Sheng manufacturing enormous quantities of imitation Star Manuals that allowed Star World to narrowly avoid utter catastrophe.

Because of the great danger, the Star Manual was already gone from Star World after the failed invasion. Rumor said that the Foreign Star Field still kept some remainders, but Star World’s cultivators could not possibly obtain them.

Of course, there was another possibility. Star Warriors who signed a Servant Star contract with a Star General possessed certain talents that could exhibit Star Energy.

Chen Mo’s breathing was steady as he allowed the Star Manual to maintain his Star Energy. He was in no mood to answer Zhou Panlong’s question.

He sought out Zhou Panlong this time to test his skill, and the results seemed pretty good after trading a hundred blows. At the very least, the more ample his experience battling Heavenly Spirit Star Generals, the less he would be at a loss of what to do like he was back then. However, Zhou Panlong’s attacks became fiercer and fierce, a bit thorny.

Chen Mo did not actually want to kill her. He had to leave the Five Emperors Seal to deal with the White Tiger.

He stole a glance at the Purple Rose chest. After a feint, he shot towards the chest, and reached for it with the Qiankun Seal. The chest’s purple light flashed, completely breaking the Qiankun Seal.

“What?” Chen Mo was surprised. Did a normal chest have such powerful capabilities.

“What, do you also have a coward’s mentality?” The woman continued to sneer. The Ten Thousand Hu Dragon Combat Dagger-axe swung again, murderous aura flying like a luan spreading its wings.

Chen Mo cursed under his breath. The Northern Dipper sword became a staff, deflecting her attack.

“Huh?” Having seen the weapon in Chen Mo’s hands strangely morph, Zhou Panlong’s eyes were somewhat aglow. “Star Energy as endless as a river, an adaptable Divine Weapon…No wonder you dare to be so impudent as an Earthly Immortal, you have some skill.”

Zhou Panlong gripped her polearm, and the seven stars spun.

Earth Rank?!

Chen Mo snapped his fingers. It seemed that he could not avoid using the Five Emperors Seal. The woman stepped swiftly forward, swinging down.

Just at this moment, a green shadow suddenly appeared in front of Chen Mo and stopped his Five Emperors Seal. The woman’s hand slightly rose, raising a green chain to stop Zhou Panlong’s strike.

“You had best stop!”

The woman said with an ice-cold voice.

“Qingyi!”

Chen Mo was overjoyed.

“Ha, ha, as expected of Brother Mo Chen, you are actually fighting a Star General. What is happening here, to be so boisterous.” Lu Xuanjing hurried over, insincerely attempting to mediate.

Chen Mo was very puzzled to see this sect disciple, “This is Fellow Lu Xuanjing of the Three Thousand Sword Ocean. This is an honest coincidence to see you here.”

“Brother, you misunderstand, I came here together with Qingyi.” Lu Xuanjing said.

Chen Mo glanced at the woman in front of him.

“Helmet Attendant Zhou Panlong, you are here, too.” Qingyi stared at her counterpart.

Zhou Panlong creased her brow and took a step back. She sensed her opponent’s unfathomable might and realized she was a bit outmatched.

“So it turns out you two are fighting over the Purple Rose Chest, no wonder.” Lu Xuanjing spotted the Purple Rose Treasure Chest, his gaze also fervent. He unleashed his magic energy, but unsurprisingly, his cultivation was completely helpless against the purple light.

Qingyi raised her hand. Green light pounded the purple chest, and the purple light fiercely struggled. In the blink of an eye, the Purple Rose chest was under her control.

Zhou Panlong grit her teeth.

Chen Mo and Lu Xuanjing were also surprised. They did not expect the chest to be so easily seized by her.

“Just who are you.” Zhou Panlong stared at her.

“It is not important who Your Servant is. We seek you out to negotiate something.” Qingyi’s tone was flat.

Lu Xuanjing aptly interjected: “Right now, the Western Fields have an even more important treasure that needs us to unite in order to seize. What does this Purple Rose chest amount to in comparison.”

Chen Mo immediately understood his message.

“Can it be that you want us to join forces to go hunt the qilin?” Zhou Panlong also realized his intentions.

Lu Xuanjing smiled: “Exactly. Unite the Qilin Cubs and kill the qilin together, we can accomplish this feat.”

“Why would I work with you?” Zhou Panlong’s gaze shifted to Chen Mo, filled with ice-cold killing intent: “Collaboration is possible. He killed my sect’s disciples, and I must first take revenge. Do not interfere.”

“Huh?” Lu Xuanjing was taken aback. Were the Green Hell Sword Sect disciples not the Lord Of Heaven and a Great Sage.

This Earthly Immortal surprisingly was capable of killing a Lord Of Heaven?

Lu Xuanjing was a bit incredulous.

Qingyi calmly said: “Mo Chen is Your Servant’s companion. We need his assistance in order to hunt the qilin. Wait until after we kill the qilin, then whatever grudge exists between you two, Your Servant will not bother about. But right now, no one can harbor disloyalty!!”

Zhou Panlong was extremely displeased with Qingyi’s commanding tone.

“On what basis, just who do you think you are!!”

The woman lifted her Ten Thousand Hu Dragon Combat Dagger-axe, raising a foul wind again.

“On the basis that I can kill you right now!!”

Qingyi shouted, suddenly changing.

Qingyi’s green clothes suddenly split open, revealing the woman’s wonderful figure and her absolute beauty. She had shapely, starry eyes and a complexion like hibiscus. Her eyes were abyssal waters, and a frightening killing intent flowed out like a torrential waters covering Heaven and Earth. The shadow of a dragon coiled and rolled, manifesting arrogance of Heaven and Earth’s fury.

The terrifying power left Zhou Panlong nearly suffocated.

“‘Dragon Of Pushan’ Li Mi!!
