“Are you the yellow dog that guarded the gates at Qingyun Peak?”
The incredibly beautiful fairy spotted the big yellow dog, with a third eye yet to open on its forehead. Reminded of the days she cultivated with Lu Changsheng at Qingyun Peak, her clear eyes rippled with emotion.
“Mistress truly remembers me!”
Daoist Earth Hound was thrilled.
He hadn’t expected to run into his mistress just ten years after ascending to the Immortal Realm.
Having cultivated in the Immortal Realm for at least eight thousand years, she should be able to look out for him.
“Where is Master?”
Daoist Earth Hound fondly recalled the days when his master would now and then bestow Immortal Pills upon him.
“I, I don’t know either.”
The incredibly beautiful fairy was none other than Xia Ningxue, who had ascended to the Immortal Realm.
She had been cultivating in the Immortal Realm for quite some time, constantly searching for news about Lu Changsheng.
However, the vastness of the Immortal Realm, with its innumerable mighty Immortal Sects, perilous forbidden lands, evil waters, and Great Demons roaming about, Xia Ningxue had yet to find Lu Changsheng.
“Even you, Mistress, don’t know of Master’s whereabouts?”
Daoist Earth Hound crossed his arms and sat on the ice, lost in thought.
The Immortal Realm was truly vast; Daoist Earth Hound had been wandering through the icy desolation for a full ten years without finding a way out.
It seemed finding Master would not be easy.
“Junior sister, what’s the story with this big yellow dog? Why does it call you Mistress?”
“Could it be that before your ascension, you already had a Dao companion?”
A few senior sisters watched the big yellow dog, seated on the ice and deep in thought, speechless.
This big yellow dog seemed a bit ridiculous.
“Mm.”
Xia Ningxue nodded earnestly.
Although she was not married to Lu Changsheng, she had pledged her commitment to him with mountain-high promises and sea-deep vows, tacitly recognizing Lu Changsheng as her Dao companion.
“I never would have guessed that our Holy Land’s Holy Maiden junior sister had a Dao companion in the Mortal World. If this news were to spread, who knows how many young talents from Holy Lands and Immortal Sects would be greatly disappointed.”
“Junior sister, what kind of person is your Dao companion? Has he also ascended to the Immortal Realm?”
“Third senior sister, what are you saying? If junior sister’s Dao companion, the big yellow dog, has ascended, how could he not have?”
“Our junior sister is a ravishing beauty and a cultivation genius. The Dao companion she chooses must be a handsome gentleman.”
The senior sisters suddenly became interested and chatted non-stop while Xia Ningxue’s pretty face reddened, and she remained silent.
“Human women are so noisy, regardless of how high their realm is, all the same, except for Mistress…”
Daoist Earth Hound muttered under his breath as he watched several extremely high-ranked fairies gossip incessantly.
Of course, he dared not voice this out loud; otherwise, the fairies might end up making dog meat stew for dinner tonight.
Among them, Xia Ningxue may have had the highest aptitude, yet her cultivation level was the lowest. The other fairies had cultivated for who knows how many tens of thousands of years, their prowess was extremely terrifying.
“It seems the Immortal Realm isn’t so easy to navigate after all. Better to stick with Mistress for now and worry about finding Master later.”
Daoist Earth Hound thought the Immortal Realm was home to many mighty beings, deciding it was better to find a backer, and thus chose to follow Xia Ningxue.
“Senior sisters, why don’t we let it come back to the Holy Land to cultivate with us?”
Xia Ningxue, considering that Daoist Earth Hound had been Lu Changsheng’s Mountain-guarding Divine Beast, pleaded with her senior sisters on his behalf.
“An Earth Immortal, it won’t take up too many cultivation resources in our Holy Land.”
“Junior sister, it would be best not to let people in the Holy Land know about your Dao companion. Master’s requirements are quite strict. If she is dissatisfied, it could spell trouble. Moreover, your second senior sister has always been jealous of your talents…”
“Thank you for the reminder, third senior sister.”
Xia Ningxue knew that Master required disciples not to seek Dao companions rashly to avoid delaying their cultivation. Master’s wrath could be fearsome, and it might even affect Lu Changsheng later on.
Increasing her cultivation level as quickly as possible was the best course of action.
“Holy Land?”
Although Daoist Earth Hound didn’t yet understand the true significance of this Holy Land, he figured that following Mistress would at least ensure his safety.
Daoist Earth Hound followed them as they flew toward the depths of the glacier.
…
“Master, the Demonic Qi over there is so strong.”
“Strange, wasn’t Unparalleled City a human Sect? How has it come under the rule of the Demon Race?”
Lu Changsheng, journeying with his four disciples, arrived in a place called Unparalleled City.
Demons clouds gathered densely ahead, and Demonic Qi surged sky-high.
During his travels, Lu Changsheng heard that Unparalleled City was a mighty human Sect, and its Sect leader, a Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal, controlled the cultivation resources for over three hundred thousand miles around.
He never expected Unparalleled City to be enveloped in Demonic Qi.
“Disciple will capture a Great Demon and inquire about the situation.”
Dugu Aotian, who had cultivated with Lu Changsheng for six thousand years and had reached the peak of Earth Immortal status, was now more composed in his actions.
Dugu Aotian went alone toward Unparalleled City to investigate the reality.
“Is there a barrier?”
Dugu Aotian discovered that there was a barrier preventing entry into Unparalleled City, so he took out a Spatial Talisman.
Lu Changsheng had bestowed various magical treasures, Talismans, and Elixir Pills upon his disciples, Dugu Aotian was not lacking Spatial Talismans.
Unparalleled City, steeped in Demonic Qi, this city, home to hundreds of millions of people and a million cultivators, had turned into a hell on earth.
Great Demons roamed rampant, cultivators, and common people turned into slaves for the Great Demons, gathering cultivation resources for them, even becoming their food supply. Read new chapters at M V L
A Tiger Demon reached out, grabbed a girl, and swallowed her in one bite.
The surrounding cultivators and commoners were all filled with grief and anger but dared not revolt.
This Tiger Demon was at the pinnacle of Unity Realm.
If they offended the Tiger Demon, other Great Demons within Unparalleled City would go on a killing spree, and all living creatures within the city could be at risk of death.
With Unparalleled City sealed by a barrier, they had no escape and could only endure the rule of the Great Demons.
