"So it was Taoist Friend Shou Ji from the Pantheon."

"Taoist Friend Po Xu, Taoist Friend Yuan Ying, greetings." Shou Ji smiled and nodded, slightly surprised in his heart.

Unexpectedly, apart from them, Jing Qiu also brought in two other sects.

Both of these are forces that the Pantheon needs to win over.

Did the Primordial Palace, newly emerged, already establish contact with other Daoist Sects?

"Have the two of you also been on guard?" Shou Ji's thoughts turned, and he softly spoke.

The two nodded successively: "Rest assured, Brother, we know that the brothers we brought in this time have immediately cut off communication channels to the outside world, preventing any inside informants from appearing and leaking information."

Shou Ji smiled: "That's good, I have done the same on my side. It seems this time, we'll catch the tail of [This Shore]."

Po Xu spoke with a cold tone: "Let's hope none of our disciples are among the encircled today."

Yuan Ying reminded: "Fellow brothers, if you encounter acquaintances, you must not show mercy. The opponent, to survive, must kill us to find a way to escape, and escaping is just fleeting survival."

Everyone nodded, their expressions cold, all carrying a bit of killing intent.

Off to the side, Jing Qiu listened in astonishment.

These individuals have been wary of potential insiders from the start, and to prevent the ambush from being leaked prematurely, they had already planned arrangements when calling people—truly seasoned veterans.

In other words… the force of [This Shore] is indeed substantial, even the Pantheon, one of the implicit leaders, may have those with ulterior motives.

Jing Qiu secretly shook his head; according to the ultimate goal of [This Shore], this could be considered as betraying one's master, no wonder these people were brimming with killing intent.

Shou Ji turned around: "Taoist Friend Ji, please lead the way."

Jing Qiu nodded, and as his thoughts emerged, it was as if he touched upon that unspeakable thing in the void.

Vast beyond measure, boundless in breadth, infinitely deep…

Omnipresent, yet nowhere to be found…

Buzz——!

In a trance, he saw a profound net reflecting all, encompassing heavens, showing All Phenomena in full display, with myriad Qi interwoven, the principle of creation and extinction, and the operation mechanism of all things, all flowing ceaselessly within.

Off to the side, Shou Ji and the others looked on with a peculiar gaze.

This is… the Harmonization Dharma Realm?

The Harmonization Dharma Realm itself amounts to nothing special, even a Heavenly King can achieve it, but here's the Void Realm; to execute Heaven Heart Harmonization, only a Dao Ancestor reaching the end of the Dao has the right to do so.

Jing Qiu, newly promoted to Heavenly Venerable, could Harmonize the Dharma Realm.

"Karma Path…"

Po Xu murmured, he and Yuan Ying were equally startled but had at least personally witnessed Jing Qiu's breakthrough process, providing them a foundation to accept this.

"Not long ago, was the one who ascended to Heavenly Venerable perhaps Taoist Friend Ji from the Primordial Palace?"

Behind Shou Ji, a Dao Ancestor inquired.

Shou Ji nodded: "Indeed."

"No wonder." The latter sighed, "The classic configuration of sun and moon in the sky, with the Group Stars surrounding, merely serves as a background for his Inner Universe. Truth be told, what kind of cosmic phenomenon could this person establish."

It was at this time.

A world-shaking thunderous roar erupted, causing the entire Void Realm to tremble violently, this Dao-seismic resonance resonated in all directions, capturing people's Spirit God.

Soon, an infinitely clear and vast river, with no known beginning or end, manifested in front of all beings, filling the vast universe from the void in an instant.

At this moment.

Jing Qiu slowly opened his eyes, wherein the sun and moon reflected the Karma Net.

His gaze locked onto a certain spot in the starry sky.

"Everyone, I found it; the opponent seems to have also received reinforcements, there's chaotic Qi over there, and plenty of strong entities."

The crowd was first taken aback by yet another phenomenon in the Void Realm, then followed where Jing Qiu was pointing.

After a moment of contemplation, Shou Ji spoke: "It seems… it's in the same direction?"

The place that Jing Qiu pointed to seemed exactly like the projection's center of that mighty river.

"Could it be that this group excavated some treasures or vaults left by that individual?"

The atmosphere suddenly became lively.

Originally, everyone was filled with killing intent, prepared to actively attack and purge [This Shore] intruders, but now it seemed they might also have a surprise gain.

"Hehe." Shou Ji chuckled, "Everyone, let's proceed on one trip to check out the situation."

Everyone gladly agreed, led by Jing Qiu as they headed out together.

...

...

"This is..."

Fu Shan looked ahead, shocked, at the young figure's back. The third disciple under the Red Lotus Realm Master had just arrived at the Void Realm, yet invoked the hidden opportunities here—notorious for bearing Heavenly Destiny!

Ahead, the boy standing alone turned around; tall and handsome, with an indescribable defiance between his brows.

"The two of you, it seems before matters will have to be put on hold for now. With the Dao opportunity ahead, I must apologize for not being able to meet the appointment," said Xuan.

At this moment, with the scattered standing figures, including Fu Shan and Qing Yu, there were over ten people.

The degree of emphasis the Red Lotus Realm Master placed on this exceeded their expectations; they initially thought reinforcements would only be two to three at most, not expecting that he even sent his third disciple, Xuan Chongguang…

Fu Shan and Qing Yu exchanged a glance, showing helplessness, letting Jing Qiu temporarily escape disaster once more.

They had no choice; these powerful beings who followed Xuan Chongguang heeded only his arrangements.

"With the opportunity ahead, naturally, it's important," Fu Shan nodded, praising, "I've long heard that Brother Xuan was born with fortune, even getting gifted with Ginseng Jade Dew by a celestial crane while walking; truly, today's phenomenon, as soon as he arrived at the Void Realm, is not in vain!"

Beside him, Qing Yu covered her mouth with a smile: "In that case, Jing Qiu's fate is also inexhaustible, as he still gains a few more days of life."

Xuan Chongguang chuckled, turning back to gaze at the vast river's projection ahead, with a peculiar look in his eyes.
