I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

The result was that before he'd gotten far, a large hand reached out and grabbed him, dragging him back.

The one who made the move was Xu Yan, who used the Great Sky Hand to recapture Blood Shadow.

Li Xuan sat calmly, in no hurry to ask Cheng Zhan some questions, but rather focused on the battle of Xu Yan and the others.

As Meng Chong killed the last person, he looked up at the True King Blood Shadow who was fiercely battling with the eldest apprentice brother.

"Eldest apprentice brother, I'll help you!"

Meng Chong soared into the sky, his body began to shrink to its normal size, covered with boundless divine energy, he charged forth with his sword.

"Today, we brothers will slay a True King Heavenly Venerable!"

Fang Hao laughed loudly as countless weapons flew out from the Weapon Box, the Domain Qimen emerged, the Great Formation opened, and instantly enveloped the Blood Shadow.

Su Lingxiu thought for a moment and finally did not make a move; instead, she returned to the Evergreen Pavilion's Flying Ship.

Roar!

Red Cat let out a roar and pounced into the fray.

But it wasn't long before it was beaten down from mid-air, crashing to the ground.

Nevertheless, with its thick skin and strong defense, although it wasn't injured, the fall still caused the Red Cat to grimace in pain.

Looking up, Red Cat felt deflated, turned into a little fat cat, and returned to the Evergreen Pavilion. It first cozied up at Li Xuan's feet then approached Su Lingxiu.

"Meow meow!"

It let out pitiful meows, indicating it was hurt and needed a healing pill!

Seeing this scene, Cheng Zhan and the others didn't quite know how to feel at the moment. Why did it seem that everyone here was a bit unusual?

The distant battle grew increasingly fierce, but three against one, the Blood Shadow couldn't hold on much longer.

Meng Chong's divine energy was unparalleled in defense, entirely fearless of the opponent's attacks, demonstrating the ferocity and dominance of his physical body. What was even more terrifying was that, with the restraint of Fang Hao and Xu Yan, Meng Chong got up close and personal, engaging in close-quarters combat!

The Blood Shadow was strong, but his physical body was far inferior to Meng Chong's. Once engaged in close combat, Blood Shadow was completely on the defensive, being battered until his skin split and flesh broke.

The outcome had been determined.

Li Xuan nodded silently; all three of his disciples were very strong, and each one had their specialties. Fang Hao's Divine Skills Qimen also showed impressive powers.

The Blood Shadow was indeed much stronger than any one of Xu Yan's group, but unable to break through the defenses of the three, his fall was inevitable!

"A True King Heavenly Venerable in the early or middle stages can't break through Xu Yan's Yin Yang Undying Sword, which means Xu Yan stands unbeatable against ordinary True King Heavenly Venerables.

"Meng Chong's physical body is formidable, and with his Divine Skills, early-stage True King Heavenly Venerables can't hurt him.

"Fang Hao, relying on Domain Qimen and formations, also doesn't fear early-stage True King Heavenly Venerables."

Li Xuan made his judgment about the strength of his three disciples.

Ordinary True King Heavenly Venerables couldn't threaten Xu Yan and his group.

His gaze fell on Cheng Zhan; the situation in the Divine Realm could be learned from this man.

"I pay respects to senior!"

Cheng Zhan greeted him respectfully, carefully asking, "May I ask Senior, do you come from the Spiritual Realm?"

He was deeply puzzled; how could there be such a powerful being from the Spiritual Realm?

The Immortal Heavenly Venerable?

He had already seen that behind this mysterious ship were martial artists from Leiyun Mountain Manor, which was a Sect under the Myriad Thunder Sect.

Among the crowd were Spirit Body Prodigies, surely those nurtured by Leiyun Mountain Manor this time, making it certain that these people all came from the Spiritual Realm.

"Yes, and no," Li Xuan responded indifferently.

Cheng Zhan was taken aback. Yes and no?

Confused but not daring to ask for details, he respectfully said, "May I ask senior, how is the Spiritual Realm now?"

After all, the collapse of the Divine Bridge and the fall of the elders who were headed to the Spiritual Realm meant that a great disaster had befallen the Spiritual Realm.

"The Spiritual Realm is unscathed."

Li Xuan's tone was flat.

Cheng Zhan wanted to ask what exactly had happened in the Spiritual Realm, why the Netherworld Cave had appeared there, and who had killed the elder.

However, upon further thought, he felt that he perhaps was not qualified to ask his senior about such trifles.

For a moment, Cheng Zhan did not continue to inquire.

Li Xuan nodded silently, thinking that Cheng Zhan had a sense of propriety, so he asked in an even tone, "What happened, tell me."

What he was asking, of course, was about the current situation in the Divine Realm's Qinghua state.

Su Lingxiu and the others all looked over as well.

The Divine Realm, a place with numerous strong Martial Artists, was actually in such chaos, as if it had been beaten into disarray by the enemy, faring worse than the Spiritual Realm.

They were curious about what kind of catastrophe had occurred and what sort of enemy they were facing.

Cheng Zhan's mind stirred, realizing that this senior must have gone into seclusion in the Spiritual Realm and only now returned to the Divine Realm.

As for why he would choose to seclude himself in the Spiritual Realm, where Spiritual Energy was relatively sparse, one could only guess that the powerful had their peculiar hobbies, or their mindset was beyond the understanding of the weaker.

Currently, the Qinghua state was facing a dire crisis, with all the major Heavenly Grottos nearly falling, and within the Qinghua state, the master of the Blood Shadow Tower had broken through to Immortal Heavenly Venerable, causing a great catastrophe.

Now, although he was being restrained by another Immortal Heavenly Venerable, the rest of the Immortal Heavenly Venerables had to defend the Heavenly Grottos to prevent the Netherworld Blood Children from breaking out.

If the Qinghua state had one more Immortal Heavenly Venerable at this moment, it would be enough to change and reverse the situation, to calm the chaos.

Even, together with another Immortal Heavenly Venerable, they could join forces to kill the master of the Blood Shadow Tower!

Hope shone in Cheng Zhan's eyes as he took a deep breath, his expression becoming even more respectful, "To go back to your inquiry, senior, the Qinghua state is currently facing devastation from the Netherworld Cave..."

Just then, there was a booming sound, followed by a scream.

The Blood Shadow finally couldn't hold on, as Meng Chong's punch had pierced through his chest. Taking advantage of the moment, Xu Yan delivered a sword strike, instantly killing the opponent.

In the midst of the booming sounds, the Blood Shadow was completely annihilated in an instant, turned to dust and disappeared!

Cheng Zhan watched with trepidation, although the Blood Shadow had weakened due to prolonged combat, Xu Yan's trio had managed to overcome the strong as the weak, fighting against adversity, which was incredibly shocking.

What prodigies they were!

Moreover, Cheng Zhan felt that the Martial Arts displayed by Xu Yan and his peers were unusual, different from the Martial Arts of the Divine Realm.

Yet he didn't dwell on it, as it wasn't unthinkable for an Immortal Heavenly Venerable to possess unique martial techniques, which only indicated that this strong individual had distinctive martial skills.

Xu Yan and his companions returned, their faces still showing unsatisfied longing.

Li Xuan nodded, pleased with the performances of his three disciples.

He looked at Cheng Zhan, signaling him to continue.

"...There are three major Netherworld Caves in the Qinghua state, each under the guard of an Immortal Heavenly Venerable, and every so often, a great battle erupts. It is a matter of pride for the Martial Artists of the Qinghua state to enter the caves and kill the Blood Disciples and Blood Slaves, as well as to gain Martial Arts resources..."

As Cheng Zhan narrated, everyone began to grasp a more comprehensive understanding of the current situation of the Qinghua state.

Chaos!

The Qinghua state was in great turmoil, even facing the crisis of collapse.

Especially Da Yue Country, it was almost entirely overrun, with Blood Slaves running rampant, Blood Disciples slaughtering in all directions, blood-sacrificing city after city, causing horrendous casualties.

And the Tianwu Sect and Myriad Thunder Sect, at this moment, had no strength to seek help and could only defend their own territories.

In the Qinghua state, countless small and large Heavenly Grottos abound, some of which had become ruins without any threat left, while others still harbored Blood Disciples and Blood Slaves, always ready to invade.

And in each of the three major Heavenly Grottos, there was a Netherworld Blood Child eyeing them covetously, each Netherworld Blood Child being a match for an Immortal Heavenly Venerable, immensely powerful.

"What is the Netherworld? How did the Heavenly Grottos come to be? Is it only possible to defend passively, without thinking of counterattack?"

Xu Yan asked, voicing the doubts in his heart.

Up to this point, what the Netherworld was and where the Netherworld Blood Disciples came from remained vague and unclear.

Cheng Zhan paused for a moment, but then suddenly understood. Xu Yan was young, and the senior likely had not spoken to his disciples about the Heavenly Grottos before, which was why Xu Yan was unaware.

So he began to explain, "The Netherworld, it is said, lies beyond our Domain, always seeking to invade our Domain, to consume it; and the Netherworld Blood Disciples are Netherworld Warriors, classified by strength, corresponding to the strength of True King Heavenly Venerables; whereas the Blood Slaves are Netherworld Warriors below the Condensation Law Heavenly Venerable state.

"Of course, there are also Blood Slaves from our Divine Realm, traitors who have accepted the infusion of Netherworld blood essence and transformed into bloodthirsty Blood Slaves.

"Some of the Blood Disciples also stem from the fall of Divine Realm Warriors.

"Blood Disciples are nameless, identified only by numerical codes, only the Blood Children have names..."

Cheng Zhan began to explain rumors regarding the Netherworld.
