Seeing Changjiang No. 7 shrink, the Wang family and the Mu family were filled with surprise. The killing intent of the Mu family seemed to weaken slightly.
As Changjiang No. 7 shrank, everyone finally saw the fairyland-like valley, and their eyes revealed a trace of surprise.
It was clear that the Immortal Cloud Mystic Realm they were searching for was likely here.
“Everyone, I understand now. You should have encountered the Devouring Cloud…” Tai Ri walked forward and said in a low voice.
The moment they saw Tai Ri, Mu He, and the rest of the Mu family were shocked. Hearing his words, they could not help but frown.
Tai Ri did not say anything else and roughly explained the Devouring Cloud and the strange things they had encountered.
“So you only encountered those Devouring Clouds that have transformed into No. 7! Otherwise, with its strength, a single drop of water could shatter your souls!” Tai Ri said seriously.
He was not exaggerating. These people were indeed not strong enough.
“There’s actually such a thing!” Wang Lin and Wang Jiabao looked at each other. They did not expect that it was really a misunderstanding. Fortunately, this divine beast called No. 7 had a good temper. Otherwise, they would probably be dead by now.
Furthermore, this was Cultivator Li’s pet. This was really a big misunderstanding!
“I’ve really offended you just now!” Wang Lin hurriedly cupped his hands and apologized to Changjiang No. 7 and Tai Ri.
As for Mu He and the others, who had calmed down, they felt a lingering fear. They had really just escaped the gates of hell.
Therefore, he cupped his hands and said, “I apologize for my offense just now. Please forgive me!”
“It’s fine. It’s all those damned Devouring Clouds’ fault. It’s not your fault!” Changjiang No. 7 did not take it to heart.
“Senior Tai, if I’m not wrong, this is the Immortal Cloud Mystic Realm, right?” Wang Lin cupped his hands and asked.
“Probably!” Tai Ri nodded noncommittally.
The smiles on the faces of the Wang family intensified. Although they had experienced twists and turns and lost a few clansmen, they had finally found the Immortal Cloud Mystic Realm.
Although they hoped to find Emperor Yu Mountain, it was clearly not bad to find the fourth-ranked grotto-heaven.
“Senior Tai, can we cultivate here?” Wang Lin asked weakly.
“Probably. As long as we obtain the approval of the cultivators here, there shouldn’t be a problem!” Tai Ri said.
“Thank you, Senior Tai!” Wang Lin said happily.
In his heart, this place had probably already become Li Yu’s territory. As long as Li Yu’s men agreed, they could openly open a cave abode here to cultivate.
Tai Ri did not say anything else. Instead, he brought Ritian and Changjiang No. 7 back to the valley.
The Wang family and the Mu family hurriedly flew into the valley. The natives in the valley looked at them warily.
Wang Lin glanced at the surrounding natives and hurriedly caught up to Tai Ri. He cupped his hands and asked, “Oh yes, Senior Tai, I wonder if Cultivator Li is here too?”
“Yes!” Tai Ri nodded.
“This is great. We’re fortunate enough to see Cultivator Li with our own eyes today!” Wang Lin said excitedly.
Wang Jiabao’s eyes brightened as well. He had heard much about what had happened from his father, but he had just returned from the Ancient Road to Heaven, so he had never seen Li Yu with his own eyes.
Therefore, he was pleasantly surprised to hear that Li Yu was here. He looked forward to seeing this legendary figure who had destroyed the entire Demon Realm with one hand.
Seeing that the group of people seemed to know Li Yu and the others, the natives in the valley relaxed a little.
…
At Li Yu’s place, Mu Han brought them to the place where Venerable Xue was in seclusion. They saw the benevolent-looking old man with white hair and beard.
Li Yu also learned some information about the Primordial Emperor from Venerable Xue.
No one knew where this person came from. He was extremely powerful and possessed unfathomable power. He could control time and space with ease.
Currently, the entire Nether Cloud Void was under his control, and those Ghost Clouds listened to him.
“This person is already the absolute ruler of this void. No one is his match!” Venerable Xue said with a gloomy expression.
The power of the Primordial Emperor made him despair, and he could not think of resisting at all.
“Girl, listen to me. Hurry up and bring your friend away from this place. If the Primordial Emperor really comes, none of you will be able to leave!” Venerable Xue added.
Zhong Yu did not speak. She could understand how Venerable Xue felt. After all, he did not know how powerful Li Yu was, nor did he know anything about the outside world.
Furthermore, he said that for their own good and did not want to implicate them.
Li Yu stood at the side and did not speak. He became increasingly curious about the Primordial Emperor.
Such a powerful person had never appeared on the Heavenly Dao Rankings. This person was indeed not simple.
Furthermore, not long ago, those Illusory Clouds turned into Devouring Clouds and took the appearance of Changjiang No. 7. This fellow clearly did it.
“Uncle Xue, rest assured and recuperate. We will handle this matter ourselves!” Zhong Yu said in a low voice.
“Girl, you shouldn’t have come back!” Venerable Xue said with a sorrowful expression.
He was well aware that they had killed Hong Zun and offended the Primordial Emperor. Even if they left now, it would probably be difficult for them to leave the Nether Cloud Void unscathed.
As they spoke, thick clouds suddenly gathered in the sky above the valley. It was as if the clouds in the entire Nether Cloud Void had condensed here, forming a giant spherical cage that imprisoned this area.
Countless Devouring Clouds transformed into creatures that looked like Changjiang No. 7. They surfaced in the dense clouds and roared.
The terrifying magic power was like a torrential flood that poured down from the sky and drowned the entire valley. Everyone immediately felt suffocated, and their hearts turned cold.
Upon seeing this, the natives in the valley were horrified and panicked. Some even crawled on the ground in fear.
“He’s here. The Primordial Emperor must be here!” someone shouted.
Snow Venerable, Zhong Yu, and Li Yu immediately sensed the terrifying magic power fluctuation. Snow Venerable’s expression darkened as he said worriedly, “It’s over. The Primordial Emperor is already here!”
“He’s here after all!” Li Yu’s lips curled into a smile as he immediately turned around and left.
In the valley, Tai Ri frowned as he looked up at the sky, thinking to himself that this guy was pretty quick.
The expressions of the Wang family and the Mu family were ugly. The powerful magic power that spread down from the sky terrified them instinctively.
“Senior Tai, what’s going on?” Wang Lin asked with an ugly expression.
“It’s nothing serious!” Tai Ri could not be bothered to explain.
“These imposters, I’ll devour you all!” Changjiang No. 7 was furious when it saw the Devouring Clouds in the sky that had transformed into its appearance.
Its body enlarged, and it opened its mouth to devour the Devouring Clouds.
However, right at this moment, a giant palm reached out from the dense clouds. It was as if the sky was pressing down on Changjiang No. 7.
It pressed Changjiang No. 7’s body to the ground, immobilizing it.
Tai Ri was shocked to see this. He did not expect the Primordial Emperor to be so impressive as to subdue Changjiang No. 7 so easily.
‘Looks like this guy does have an extraordinary background.’
However, right at this moment, a sword shadow seemed to flash past. The thick clouds that enveloped the valley were instantly combed into the middle.
Immediately, the Devouring Clouds in the shape of Changjiang No. 7 collapsed with a roar, and the dense clouds instantly dissipated.
“I didn’t expect you to still be alive.” A voice sounded in the world.
This voice seemed to come from all directions, making it difficult to find its source.
Li Yu looked around and frowned slightly. He could not sense the person who spoke at all.
“You’re the Primordial Emperor? Stop pretending. Do you dare to come out and fight?” Li Yu asked coldly.
At the same time, the space in the void twisted into a vortex, and an extraordinary figure walked out.
This person was tall, and his long green hair was like silk that fluttered without wind. His face was as white as jade, and he was extraordinarily handsome.
His eyes were like stars that emitted a dark blue glow, and his appearance and bearing were not much inferior to Li Yu.
“Long time no see, Emperor Yu!” The man’s lips curled into a faint smile.
Li Yu looked at this person and expressed that he did not know him, but it was clear that he knew him. Well, to be precise, he knew his predecessor.
