To practice the Righteous Skill, one must leave this continent.

This is what that incredibly ancient memory told Mei Gemu.

This land is peculiarly special beyond belief. Heterodox paths run rampant—by this point alone, it might not seem very unusual. In truth, the domination of heterodox paths in certain worlds isn't uncommon. However, this world harbors so many entities capable of annihilating immortals, which is quite suspicious.

This world may have hidden immortals. Yet... the speed and probability of their avatars being consumed are appalling.

—This world... no... not only this world, even including the heavenly vault of this world[known to immortals as the Sun System], harbors many hidden monsters.

Due to the critical parts being erased by the Divine Plague Curse Technique, Mei Gemu actually doesn't know the memories of "himself" in other incarnations. However, the Banished Immortal inhabiting the body of the Qiangdi Plain Wildcat managed to salvage a little. This bit of impression let Mei Gemu know, this world is different.

Thus, he embarked on the path to leave Shenzhou, in pursuit of the Righteous Skill.

He vaguely remembered that there were dark stakes placed by True Law Practitioners in this area.

"Another me" seems to have been some significant figure, who had quite good relations with the True Law Practitioners far overseas—at least seemingly harmonious. He knew of many dark stakes set by True Law Practitioners in Shenzhou—in honesty, these dark stakes hadn't been of much use for centuries. The greatest achievement in the past hundred to two hundred years was merely killing a Golden Core Cultivator of the Five Absolutes True Inheritor. Additionally, several years ago, he laid many back-up moves in Xiaodong of Shenzhou, having people even within the Immortal Alliance. But with the loss of memory, he's unsure if he can still command those lurking within the Immortal Alliance. On the other hand, Xiaodong has been relentlessly swept by the Immortal Alliance since a few years ago, and those back-up moves left by "himself" are not necessarily safe.

So, now, searching for those dark stakes of Ancient Method practitioners, and then smuggling overseas is his best choice.

—There is no conflict between "me" and the Holy Emperor Venerable.

—"I" and the Holy Emperor Venerable are different entities, but there is no conflict.

This is what the fragmented memory told Mei Gemu.

As long as Mei Gemu can leave Shenzhou, and restore half his cultivation, he can remove the divine body hidden in the void with his Divine Body to refine a Golden Body, escaping the extremely weak physical bodies of the human clan in this world with innate deficiencies, and ascend once more.

As long as he can leave Shenzhou and restore some mana.

His original plan was to find those dark stakes near the Tianjiang Plain. But after arriving at the Tianjiang Plain, he found that those dark stakes were eliminated six or seven years ago[when Wang Qi returned home several years ago]. He then immediately headed to nearby contact points. Strangely, those contacts were exterminated just days ago[silenced by Lian Yichen]. With no other choice, he could only follow this path, heading towards the arrangement he wasn't sure still existed in Xiaodong.

That day, he finally arrived at Su Family Town—the essential route south to the land of the two Xiaos.

"I remember, there's something like an ancient teleportation array nearby... but it doesn't lead overseas; instead, it's to a secret realm, unwise, unwise." Mei Gemu pondered his way to leave.

Suddenly, he felt a trace of shadow.

"Something... that can threaten me..."

The golden eyes were instantly ignited. He remembered.

He was killed by something similar to "this aura"...

Countless times...

Killed countless times!

........................................................................

"It's getting late." Wang Qi wasn't particularly afraid of the dark. He could naturally see at night, and creating light was very easy for him.

"Hey, old man."

"What?"

"Did you find it? Someone who looks like you or your godfather or your brother?"

Zhen Chan sighed: "Probably not... I can't say for sure. Knowing that the Su Family and the Luo Family haven't died out and have so many descendants makes me quite happy... but after looking around, none really feel like me... or like those old acquaintances."

"That's normal." Wang Qi closed the book: "Asked if any caught your eye?"

"A few... not that grotesque."

"I'm getting a little tired." Wang Qi put away the book, saying: "After we finish here, let's return to Langde. Since you're not too concerned, we won't go to Xiaoxi."

"I wasn't caring before, but hearing you say it, I do feel a bit odd now..." Zhen Chan's tone was gloomy: "Your blabber..."

"I have quite a few fine ideas." Wang Qi said: "We've played enough this month."

"Forget it, since the Luo Family and Su Family have persisted without our cultivator protection, why should I care? " Zhen Chan lamented: "Rather than care for the Primordial Essence Bloodline Root, I should care more about my future cultivation path... No place like home, no place like home."

Reaching a consensus with Zhen Chan, Wang Qi began recalling his Mechanical Bird. The faces of all Su-named individuals in this town have been entered into the database, and by morning, the calculation results will be complete, allowing Zhen Chan to identify them swiftly.

What I need to do is provide the name and address of the person whom Zhen Chan noticed to the Immortal Alliance. The relevant agency of the Immortal Alliance will collect samples and send them to Tianling Ridge, as one of the materials of Zhen Chan's bloodline.

In the last two or three years, Zhen Chan can wait for news within the ring.

At this moment, the long sword behind Wang Qi suddenly trembled.

"Moonset Glaze?" Wang Qi took the sword in hand, his fingers stroking the purple spine of the sword, using the Heart Clarity Spell to calm the sword-shaped True Dragon. Moonset Glaze is a Transformation Stage member of the Dragon Clan, equivalent to the Human Clan's Primordial Spirit — perhaps even superior. If she kills someone in her dreams, Wang Qi really doesn't have much confidence in surviving.

More than a month ago, Mi fell into unexpected severe injuries and incapacity, needing to "seclude himself for cultivation." Meanwhile, Xi also suffered significant damage. Since then, the task of taking care of Moonset Glaze fell solely on Wang Qi.

Moonset Glaze was already in a severely injured state. Previously, Mi always represented the Immortal Alliance in dealing with her, communicating about laws and such. Without Mi, Moonset Glaze simply relied on sleeping to accelerate the healing process.

Moonset Glaze's essence suddenly flowed backward into Wang Qi's body via the fingers he used for the Heart Clarity Spell. Wang Qi was startled, and heard Moonset Glaze growl, "Parasitic Beast!"

"What?" Wang Qi was somewhat puzzled: "Princess, were you talking in your sleep just now?"

"Not a dream. We dragons do not dream!" Moonset Glaze roared: "It's a parasitic beast!"

Wang Qi's expression became serious: "Banished Immortal... what mana?"

"Not the cultivation of this world, cannot be classified into your Human Clan's unique Immortal Dao or Witch Dao, nor the updated New Divine Tao, nor the newly emerged Demon Path or Demon Path." Moonset Glaze said: "If judged solely by the total amount of mana, it's approximately equivalent to the early stage of Core Formation."

"Not the cultivation of this world..." Wang Qi immediately sensed the seriousness of the matter. Back when he directly confronted those two Banished Immortals in the Divine Capital, Lu Wan and Shu Rongrong, they could crush Divine Separation Stage cultivators with their Primordial Spirit Bodies. Yet, such beings were not completely awakened. They hadn't fully freed themselves from this world's Nascent Soul Skill, just picked up some moves from their previous lives.

This one is more thoroughly awakened, and more terrifying.

Moonset Glaze released herself. Wang Qi understood, mana flowed, entering Moonset Glaze's body, circulating within Moonset Glaze's large and small acupoints. The "backdoor" that Mi washed away months ago reappeared inside Moonset Glaze.

"My injuries are not yet healed, I might not be able to retain that parasitic beast. I entrust my essence demon energy to you to use. It's up to you now."

"Understood." Wang Qi responded, splitting a strand of consciousness, entering the Ten Thousand Immortals Illusion Realm through the calculator. This strand of his consciousness followed that special dedicated channel to find Feng Luoyi.

In an illusion realm, he saw Mi. Mi's Human Clan form wore a small jacket, her feet bare, swaying within the illusion. Seeing Wang Qi, she seemed somewhat happy: "Junior Brother, it's been a long time since we met."

"Senior Sister, where is the teacher? I have urgent matters to ask."

"Urgent matters? The teacher seems to be quite busy recently." Mi frowned: "Is there anything you can ask me."

"Can I ask about the Banished Immortal?"

"Banished Immortal? I do know part of it..." Mi hesitated: "But my access isn't that high."

"Part of it is enough." Wang Qi asked: "Is there currently a Banished Immortal north of the Xiaodong and Xiaoxi regions?"

Mi quickly answered: "Absolutely not. The known Banished Immortals by the Immortal Alliance can't reach a place where mortals gather without permission."

"Oh, I understand now."

Wang Qi smiled, disconnecting from the Ten Thousand Immortals Illusion Realm.

"That means, that guy is definitely an enemy!"

The dragon clan essence of Moonset Glaze mixed with Wang Qi's spiritual sense was cast out. Then, in just an instant, Wang Qi locked onto the enemy wearing a conical hat.

Then, with a flash of purple light, the Moonset Glaze sword carried an unstoppable momentum, directly striking at the Banished Immortal from a few hundred feet away. The purple sword light soared into the sky, and at this moment Moonset Glaze also uttered the unique battle roar of the dragon clan.

"Parasitic Beast! Prepare to die!"

First-tier sword, Harmonious Sword.

Only within one sword stroke, the most perfect swordsmanship!

As the sword hadn't arrived yet, the sword qi already descended. The matchless sword qi shattered the ordinary bamboo mat-supported conical hat, revealing the Banished Immortal's animal-like golden eyes. In mid-air, the gazes of Wang Qi and the Banished Immortal crossed. The golden light in the Banished Immortal's eyes flashed, and the spiritual sense refined like a divine weapon of thousand hammers burst forth from his eyes.

God Destroying Sword!

Wang Qi groaned, feeling as though a sword was stabbing into his brain through his brow acupoint, stirring violently, seemingly wanting to annihilate everything. But he completed Unity of Magic and Self, so his mana carried the traits of the soul. The Heavenly Calculation Power, with his head as the core, immediately resisted, while fighting against the God Destroying Sword that sought to obliterate the soul, rapidly iterating, evolving a counter ability, Wang Qi shook his head and quickly regained his senses.

Mei Gemu was also shocked. His move targeted the soul rather than the mana, so it shouldn't be blocked by mana. It was also his reliance to overcome his own shallow mana. But since Wang Qi overcame it, it could only mean one thing...

"It really is, Unity of Magic and Self!"
