“Alright, I understand.”

………..

Purple Sun Mountain isn’t just a single large mountain, but a continuous mountain range, and currently, everyone’s main objective is to guard this mineral vein!

Standing on top of a stone snake with the cultivation level of a Three Flowers Heavenly Immortal, Chen Jiuge boldly charged into the dense forest on one side.

After walking for a full quarter of an hour, Chen Jiuge turned around and saw that the castle at the guard post was almost out of sight, and he muttered to himself, “This should be far enough!”

“Hiss, hiss, hiss.”

One stone snake after another emerged, and these stone snakes, carrying a hint of murderous intent, instantly lowered the temperature of the dense forest.

“Spread out, eliminate all the ghost monsters you see!”

“Hiss, hiss, hiss.”

The massive stone snakes dispersed in all directions, leaving large grooves in the underbrush of the dense forest.

“Hmm?”

Chen Jiuge suddenly closed his eyes tightly, and his mind entered the Chaos World.

The originally peaceful and harmonious Chaos World was in complete chaos, with numerous birds and beasts fleeing in panic from the center.

Chen Jiuge even saw a rabbit riding on a tiger’s back, and the tiger surprisingly didn’t mind!

“Chaos, Chaos, where are you? What’s going on?”

“I’m coming, I’m coming!”

Covered in mud, Chaos emerged from the ground, looking exhausted and holding a small whip.

“What kind of entrance is this?” Chen Jiuge asked, somewhat confused.

“It’s all because of that little kid you brought in, Master!” Chaos replied with a face full of grievance.

Chaos still couldn’t figure out why such a small body could emit such a loud cry. The most critical part was that the cry contained a unique rhythm of the Great Dao, which even the strongest fierce beasts in the Chaos World couldn’t resist.

Although Chaos was quite special and immune to most harm, the remaining bit was just enough to be slightly irritating. Not life-threatening, but annoying.

“Cough, cough, take me to see it,” Chen Jiuge said somewhat embarrassed.

“Master, are you sure it’s okay?” Chaos asked skeptically.

The area where the Sorrowful Girl resided still had many Heavenly Immortal Spiritual Beasts lying there groaning, and if the master got injured by the cry there, it would be troublesome.

After all, Chen Jiuge entered with his Divine Soul, and injuries to the Divine Soul are much more problematic than physical injuries!

“Just take me there!”

The area where the Sorrowful Girl was located was a plain. This once boundless plain was full of those herbivorous spiritual beasts. It was arguably the most prosperous and vibrant area in the entire Chaos World.

Initially, Chen Jiuge placed the Sorrowful Girl here because the environment was good. But who would have thought that in just a few days, it would turn into such a ghostly scene, truly terrifying.

As soon as he landed on the plain, Chen Jiuge heard a muffled crying sound. Maybe the Sorrowful Girl’s power had grown stronger, as he felt his Soul Body trembling.

“Sorrowful Girl, stop crying!”

The crying abruptly stopped, and a small figure shot into Chen Jiuge’s arms like a cannonball, the impact almost scattering his Soul Body.

Smiling, Chen Jiuge patted the Sorrowful Girl’s head and said helplessly, “Just a few days without seeing you, and how did you get so strong?”

“Yiya ya.”

The Sorrowful Girl looked unhappy, gesturing with her hands and feet, meaning she didn’t recognize the beasts here and felt scared!

Smiling wryly, Chen Jiuge comforted her, “Don’t be scared, don’t be scared. I’ll take you out, okay?”

At this moment, Chen Jiuge missed Dabai especially. With Dabai, settling the Sorrowful Girl wouldn’t be a problem. For some reason, the Sorrowful Girl never cried when with Dabai. Indeed, he couldn’t compete!

“Yiya ya.”

The Sorrowful Girl clapped her small hands happily, and nuzzled Chen Jiuge’s big face with her soft cheeks.

“But you have to promise me not to cry easily outside!” Chen Jiuge said earnestly.

The Sorrowful Girl patted her chest and nodded solemnly.

“Alright!”

Holding the Sorrowful Girl, Chen Jiuge turned to Chaos and said, “I’ll leave things here to you. I’ll take the Sorrowful Girl first!”

“Wait, Master, this little one might be unusual!” Chaos suddenly said.

“What’s up?”

“I wasn’t clear before, since I was hiding underground, but now I seem to sense something. The Chaos World seems a bit different,” Chaos said seriously.

“What’s specific?” Chen Jiuge asked, getting serious seeing Chaos’s earnest expression.

“It seems that the Path of Sorrow in the Chaos World is converging within the Sorrowful Girl!” Chaos said in shock.

“Path of Sorrow?” Chen Jiuge was moved. Could this be the Chaos God Demon that Chaos previously mentioned, born from the Chaos World?

“That’s right, exactly. Master, you must keep an eye on her. She might be the first God Demon appearing in the Chaos World and will greatly help you!” Chaos affirmed earnestly.

“Alright, I understand. But will taking her out affect anything?” Chen Jiuge asked worryingly.

“No worries. The Great Dao has already locked onto her. As long as she doesn’t stray too far from you, it won’t affect anything.”

“That’s good then,”

“But you should still manage the Spiritual Beasts for me; I might need a large number of them for a while, especially those stone snakes!” Chen Jiuge instructed.

Chaos showed a helpless face, “Alright!”

Since finding out Chaos could also develop the ability to breed Spiritual Beasts, Chen Jiuge rarely engaged in breeding himself, only stepping in to research new species.

Once the breeding was done, the rest was Chaos’s work anyway, and she was quite free.

Not eliminating her presence and giving herself some work seemed quite reasonable!

Returning to reality, the Sorrowful Girl appeared in Chen Jiuge’s arms. The unfamiliar environment startled her, almost making her cry.

Luckily, Chen Jiuge acted quickly, comforting her to prevent a disaster.

The power of the Sorrowful Girl didn’t differentiate between friend and foe. Otherwise, Chen Jiuge wouldn’t consider hiding this formidable weapon.

“Hiss, hiss, hiss.”

The Stone Snake King shook its massive head, seeming to ask Chen Jiuge for permission to act.

“Go!”

Jumping off the snake’s head, Chen Jiuge summoned the recently transformed Yin Mud Beast. Its appearance had changed drastically, and its Yin Qi was gone, making it perfectly soft and suitable for playing with the Sorrowful Girl without any risk of bumps or bruises.

Hearing occasional ghostly cries and the excited snake sounds from the stone snakes in the distance, Chen Jiuge remained unmoved.

“I wonder how things are in the Golden Desert?”

It’s been over a thousand years since the Golden Desert disconnected from the True Realm. If not for the contract marks showing that Yue Meng, Dabai, and the others were safe, Chen Jiuge would have been anxiously worried.

“I suppose it should be soon. After all these years, even if some effort was diverted because of the ghost monsters, it should be sufficient!”

…..

Star Moon City

Dabai wandered idly down the streets. Since the expansion of Star Moon City, the number of traveling merchants in the city had increased, making the streets more prosperous.

Many loose cultivators said that Star Moon City would be the first to surpass the main city. Of course, cultivators who truly understood the main city knew it was mostly a joke.

Every main city is a metropolis constructed with countless efforts by the Major Sects, unmatched by Star Moon City in array, facilities, or foundation.

After not walking far, Dabai saw Zhan Ge coming, dragging a loose cultivator with a gloomy face.

“What’s this unlucky guy done now?” Dabai curiously asked.

“What else, dining and dashing again!” Zhan Ge said helplessly.

Outside the Golden Desert, where ghost monsters ran rampant, survival for loose cultivators became increasingly difficult. After discovering that being caught dining and dashing in Star Moon City meant being used as forced labor,

Most importantly, during the forced labor, meals are provided, and outstanding work is rewarded with some cultivation resources, opening a new world for the loose cultivators.

“Hehe, it’s Lord Dabai, a bit embarrassing, isn’t it?” the loose cultivator laughed unashamedly, greeting Dabai cheerfully.

Since Dabai’s artifact refining required a lot of labor, he might end up assigned to Dabai.

“Morality is declining, and people’s hearts are not what they used to be,” Dabai shook his head theatrically.

“Dong, dong, dong.”

The Ancient Bronze Bell on the city wall suddenly rang, and Mo Yu’s clear voice echoed throughout the city, “Everyone, the Golden Desert will reconnect with the True Realm in three days. This connection lasts only three months, so whether you want to leave or stay, please prepare.”

“What, it’s opening!”

“Finally, I can leave!”

“Leave? There’s no reason to. The Golden Desert now is so much better than before!” said a formidable loose cultivator.

Among the crowd’s cheers, Mo Yu’s face was momentarily bewildered. The sudden opening of the passage entirely caught Mo Yu off guard, with no prior signs.

“Let’s hope nothing unexpected happens!”
