Chi Ji swept over with cold eyes, "Given the current situation, our Holy King Lineage can barely hold onto this small patch of land in Daluo Heaven, how can we assist your Federation?"

"Has the situation deteriorated to such an extent?" Ji Jingqiu frowned, for this journey was not truly for the Federation, but to borrow land from the Holy King Lineage that would go unnoticed by the existence within the Burial Sea.

In the Netherworld, aside from Master He who can't make a move, perhaps only the Saint King at the helm of the Divine Lords can stand against that one.

This person stepped into the True Saint Peak years ago, now overseeing Daluo Heaven, with even the trend of merging with the Great Universe. Whether Heavenly Time or geographical advantage, none are inferior to that individual!

"Are you Ji Jingqiu?"

From the Thirty-Six Layers, someone approached, all were spectators, witnessing Chi Ji attaining the Heavenly Monarch Fruit Position.

A young man in appearance walked over, his gaze sharp, aura strong. He was not a native of the Netherworld, and his energy locked onto Ji Jingqiu.

Among the Outer Realm forces, some wish for the Holy King Lineage to perish, naturally, others attempt to win over the Holy King Lineage.

This young man named Li Hong has cultivated for less than ten thousand years, already reached the Heavenly Venerate in Daoist prowess, once treaded the Heavenly Monarch Domain, considered likely to reach the Supreme level in this epoch, giving him reasons for pride.

Li Hong scrutinized Ji Jingqiu, his smile gradually became peculiar, seemingly satisfied, he reconfirmed:

"Are you the Ji Jingqiu of the Yanhuang Federation who designed traps to harm Heavenly Monarchs of various Gates?"

Ji Jingqiu glanced at Chi Ji, "I just came from Cangqing Heaven, is the information channel of Holy King Heaven more hindered compared to the leaderless Cangqing Heaven?"

Chi Ji gave Li Hong a cold look, this person repeatedly showed her favor previously, the intent visible even to a fool, yet it annoyed her.

But she knew, Father God never wished to see Ji Jingqiu forcibly taken by Outer Realm forces.

"Taoist Friend Li, this is Holy King Heaven," Chi Ji said indifferently, then turned to Ji Jingqiu and said, "Recently, I've broken through to Heavenly Monarch and invited various forces to witness, including both our Netherworld and Outer Realm Gates, indeed there's been some information blockage externally."

She was reminding Ji Jingqiu that the other was an outsider.

Li Hong was unconcerned, stepping forward gracefully, he said harmoniously:

"Chi Ji, don't mind, it's just that this person went too far. The current situation in the Netherworld can be said to be caused by this person's hand. If not for him scheming against the Heavenly Monarchs of various Gates, those Gates wouldn't have formed an alliance to crusade against your realm."

"Give me some time after capturing this person, I'll use him as a bargaining chip to negotiate with various Gates to lessen the blockade against your realm, then you in the Nether..."

Ji Jingqiu curled the corners of his lips, suddenly his mind changed.

Given the current state, the previous plan seemed a bit unrealistic, the Netherworld was more tricky than he imagined. He required a more efficient and direct method, which also would be more... adventurous.

Ji Jingqiu suddenly turned around, delivering an airborne kick to his right shoulder, the latter's half body exploded instantly, blood and bones splattered!

A dignified Heavenly Venerate just exploded publicly in front of everyone!

This scene occurred in a flash.

Not only Chi Ji, even Li Hong himself didn't react!

With a thud, Li Hong only felt his head unimaginably heavy, as if a Divine Mountain crushed his head, instantly bringing him down.

That was a shoe, stamping him to kneel immediately.

Then, piercing pain surged, half of his Dao Body exploded, critically there was some invisible yet pervasive Dao force, severing through his Dao Body towards his Inner Universe!

"Ah..." Li Hong screamed in agony, struggling to rise, but that foot remained immovable like a mountain.

Ji Jingqiu didn't even glance at Li Hong, his gaze directed towards the depths of this Heaven and Earth, saying:

"When did the Holy King Lineage become so weak, allowing such foolishness to roam Daluo Heaven unchecked?"

Heaven and Earth gave no response.

Chi Ji once more looked at Ji Jingqiu in shock.

She misjudged, in just a few decades, this man not only stepped into Heavenly Monarch but also reached an unimaginable height in the Heavenly Venerate Domain, a single kick forced Li Hong, once also a Heavenly Monarch, to a state of begging!

"Ji Jingqiu!" Li Hong shouted in rage, frantically deploying his Lifebound Technique, yet never could touch Ji Jingqiu.

Around Ji Jingqiu countless transparent threads emerged, causing Li Hong's various Divine Skills to deviate from their trajectory, striking beside Ji Jingqiu, never reaching him.

As if separated from Ji Jingqiu by a layer of world.

Among the accompanying spectators, some showed fear, some were suspicious, some hesitated whether to make a move.

Until a voice akin to a mighty bell sounded from the depths of Heaven and Earth, calmly saying.

"Young friend, mighty skills, but today's actions are a bit excessive, remember those who humiliate others, themselves are bound to be humiliated."

"If you want to climb over my head, then be prepared for me to tread on yours." Ji Jingqiu responded without politeness, "What are you, less blabbering there, dare to touch me? Just try!"

"Impudence!"

Another angry rebuke rang, a towering figure stood in the void like a Divine, overlooking Heaven and Earth, stepping forward, each step sent tremors across this Heaven and Earth, the sound of Dao resonated incessantly, causing Heaven and Earth to vibrate with it!

"Dare to offend Xu Duo True Saint! You think no one dares to move against you?!"

"I'll see that once capturing you, what your Yanhuang Federation has to say! Whether that one in the Time River dares to risk their own demise, to stand for you!"

This was a Dao Ancestor, his Dao Body moved, as if even Daluo Heaven quaked, tidal wave-like Dao Light swept forth.

Witnessing this scene, Chi Ji's expression, already unpleasant, became increasingly frigid and cold.

Indeed they're attempting to steal the origin of their Daluo Heaven; why doesn't Father God intervene?!

"Dao Ancestor, no difference."

Ji Jingqiu responded indifferently, raising his hand to grip the handle as he tread on Li Hong's head, slashing a blade!

Puff!

In the pinhole-sized pupils of Li Hong lying sideways on the ground, the head of his senior brother rushing for rescue suddenly flew off.

Even for a Dao Ancestor, this wasn't a fatal blow, but the ease with which it was executed carried profound meaning, which was key!

Likewise, this was a deadly humiliation!

At this moment, Ji Jingqiu amidst the shocked and puzzled faces of everyone, slashed a second cut.

A line of sword light descended straight, like the first ray of light tearing through the Great Universe, distinguishing clear and turbid, also separating Heaven and Earth, the brilliance unparalleled, pointing towards the inner universe of this Dao Ancestor!

Suddenly, a figure as tall as heaven stood up in the depths of Heaven and Earth, reaching out to block this sword light, spoke with fury:

"From where did you learn [Taichu Peak]? This is my [Heavenly Cutting Sect] True Inheritance!"

Ji Jingqiu stood suspended in mid-air, a line of sword light swirled around him like fish, causing the attacking True Saint to be astonished, not daring to rashly reach towards Ji Jingqiu.

Ji Jingqiu sheathed the sword, speaking coldly:

"A group of late learners, even your Ancestor Master would address me as Taoist Friend upon meeting me, what are you, seeing me as something to be held, oppressed, trampled?"

"Ignorant!" 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"Let the Existence Trace left by Yu Hua come see me. I'll personally question if the alliance on the Returning to Truth Road holds true!"
