The floating continent came to a stop.

A figure flew out of the super-large-scale landmass that was enshrouded in thick mists.

It was a middle-aged man with jade-like skin and a handsome appearance. His pure white robes and loose azure hair gave him a confident and unbridled look.

After flying out, he stared unblinkingly at Pei Qiqi and said, “Is that you, Qiqi?”

Looking at him, Pei Qiqi sensed a strong but natural stir in her spatial bloodline. “Who are you?”

This made her realize that this man in front of her must have some sort of bloodline connection with her.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Off to the side, the unceasingly surging energies were still emanating intense spatial fluctuations.

Taken aback, the man took a glance at the surging energies. Blue light flashed across his eyes before he said, “This forming portal connects to the Second Demon Realm. Judging from the auras that are leaking through it, the newly-awakened Grand Monarch Eternal Purgatory is on the other side.”

With these words, he reached out with one hand and made a pressing motion towards the surging energies.

FIZZ!

Lines of pure spatial power instantly wove into a mysterious glowing symbol.

In the blink of an eye, the glorious symbol seemed to flatten and erase the fluctuating energies completely, destroying the portal that was just about to take form and establish a connection to the Second Demon Realm.

WHOOSH!

The mysterious symbol left his palm and flew into the forming spatial tunnel right before it collapsed.

...

Thick rolling Demon Qi formed what looked like a pitch-black, bottomless abyss in the open starry river outside the Second Demon Realm.

Millions of Demons and howling demonic beasts were gathered in the vicinity.

All of a sudden, a glorious symbol flew out of the abyss of surging Demon Qi.

FIZZ! FIZZ!

It exploded upon flying out.

Beams of extremely sharp light shot through the sea of Demons and demonic creatures that were rubbing their fists and palms, (Idiom: itching to fight) reaping tens of thousands of lives in a split second.

BAM!

Wreathed in rolling purple flesh aura, Grand Monarch Eternal Purgatory flung his huge arms, trying to swat and kill the light that carried the profound truths of spatial power.

“Damn Voidspirits!” Grand Monarch Eternal Purgatory bellowed, staring at the destroyed spatial tunnel.

His rich flesh aura rapidly condensed and morphed into an ancient demonic python and multiple sinister serpents that coiled around his waist as he said, “Sooner or later, I’ll kill every last one of them!”

Ophelia was confused after hearing of this race for the first time. “What are... Voidspirits, Lord Eternal Purgatory? There don’t seem to be any legends about them in our world or the human world. Do they have something to do with the Void Spirit Society?”

As noble as she was, she hadn’t heard about the wonders of this special race.

“You don’t know anything about them because your bloodline hasn’t reached the heights that allow you to learn about our people’s history.” Grand Monarch Eternal Purgatory’s voice rumbled through the void. “Once your bloodline enters the tenth grade, your deepest bloodline imprints will be awakened.

“Then, you’ll know that we’re not an indigenous people of the Spirit World. In fact, the origin of our bloodline lies in the Void World.

“The Devils in the Void World created us. The purpose of our existence was to help them take the Spirit World and the Mortal World one day.”

“What?!” A loud clamor burst through the Demons that were present.

After all, even Grand Monarch Primal Demon, the current Demon high chieftain, had never told them about this.

Therefore, many of them doubted the truthfulness of Grand Monarch Eternal Purgatory’s words as they turned to fix Grand Monarch Bloodlust with baffled and inquiring looks.

After the disappearance of Grand Monarch Primal Demon, Grand Monarch Bloodlust had temporarily taken over his position. Despite the fact that Grand Monarch Eternal Purgatory was a legendary grand monarch, he had been killed before, and wasn’t a grand monarch of this era. As much as they worshiped him, they don’t know him well enough.

“Grand Monarch Eternal Purgatory is right.” Grand Monarch Bloodlust gave a reaffirming response under everyone’s gazes. “The origin of our bloodline lies with the Devils in the Void World. Eventually, we’ll return to our actual ancestral land and uncover the secrets of bloodline transcendence!”

After a short pause, he added, “In fact, the high chieftain has taken the initiative to return to our ancestral land in search of the power that’ll help him transcend the late tenth grade! We’ll follow the high chieftain’s footsteps!”

With a snort, Grand Monarch Eternal Purgatory said, “We’ll find another way to the Mortal World. Since Voidspirits have shown up near the Realm of Ancient Heights, I suppose our people in the Realm of Ancient Heights are most likely dead.”

“March into the Mortal World with me!” Grand Monarch Remote Demon’s bellow echoed out in the distance. “I’m going back to transfer more of our forces to the Realm of Ancient Heights! All of my clansmen and followers in the Realm of Ancient Heights might have been killed by now, along with the spell formations I set up there.”

“We’ll go there soon enough,” Grand Monarch Eternal Purgatory said, wreathed in strong killing intent. “I can also sense the existence of the Ice Emperor’s shattered god domain. I’ll destroy his cold power legacy as well!”

...

The man who had wiped the spatial fluctuations away looked unblinkingly at Pei Qiqi. His eyes gradually welled up.

Pei Qiqi’s charming shoulders trembled as she looked back at him.

He turned to take a measuring look at Nie Tian, then said, “You’re Nie Tian, right? Good. You’re exactly how I imagined you would be.”

Just as Nie Tian was about to respond, he heard the Ripper Behemoth’s cry once again.

“I’ll leave you alone now.”

Very sensibly, he morphed into a streak of bright light that shot towards the floating continent.

In a flash, he flew through the thick mists, and the endless black sea on the floating continent entered his view.

He sensed unusually strong flesh aura fluctuations in the depths of the sea.

SPLASH!

Huge waves rose in an area of the endless black sea as the Ripper Behemoth’s immense soul awareness instantly filled the entire floating continent. “I’m fully awake.”

Nie Tian looked down, floating high in the sky.

At this moment, he could finally see an enormous creature looming in the pitch-black sea.

From what he could tell, the creature was even larger than a small-scale realm.

Compared to it, any titan, Ancientbeast, or dragon would look as puny as an insect.

The flesh aura coming from the depths of the sea was more immense and vast than anything Nie Tian had sensed in his whole life.

Perhaps such boundless flesh auras only existed in the endless blood sea inside his Blood Realm.

“Do you have an agreement with Voidspirits as well?” Nie Tian cut to the chase.

“Yes.” An incomparably clear soul message came through from the Ripper Behemoth.

“Do you have any memories of what happened in the Domain of Heaven Span?”

“I do. Every bit is well-preserved in my mind. However, all I’ve done in the Domain of Heaven Span was a result of me being overtaken with hunger. Now, after a session of feeding, I’ve finally returned to my senses. My sobriety came at a heavy price.”

WHOOSH!

The Star Behemoth bone suddenly flew out of Nie Tian’s hand and fell into the black sea.

This was willed by the Ripper Behemoth.
