Black Lotus Soul Threshold, no one can imagine such freedom.

A crystal pure white figure darts across the battlefield, utterly transparent, and every sword strike is an instant kill.

On usual days, even the clan leader would treat the Netherworld Corpse Demon as a severe threat, yet in front of him, it was no more than weed.

And those Corpse Fiends capable of nearly exterminating the whole Ancient Race weren't much different.

Just like a breeze sweeping through.

Silent and unnoticeable in passing, but leaving a field of corpses behind.

Song Yan slightly tidied up the battlefield, then stood before the Twelve-Petaled Black Lotus Fire proudly blooming in the snow.

This fire, this environment, was something he remembered; it was where the old Black Lotus was tragically killed by the backlash of Black Lotus Fire; who would have thought the Master of Heaven and Earth would use the Formless Ancient Race to fill this pit.

Song Yan never doubted the Master of Heaven and Earth's control over his own world. Though he might not be omniscient and omnipotent, he's not far from it; otherwise, how could he be the Master of Heaven and Earth?

However, just as someone in Divinity Transformation sits on an island across the Sea of Suffering unable to return to their clan, the Master of Heaven and Earth's true form must also be shackled outside and unable to enter this world; otherwise... this world would become his complete backyard, and there wouldn't be any room for him to stir within this small plot of land.

So, the Formless Ancient Race being brought in to fill the pit was possibly a probe by the Master of Heaven and Earth.

The Fire Demon Dragon is dead, he ascended to that island and then achieved the Immortal Position...

The Master of Heaven and Earth surely knows these things.

This is why, aside from those Celestial Demons and Netherworld creatures, he is also placed on the table by the Master of Heaven and Earth because... he is indeed too peculiar.

Others do not know that he broke through to Divinity Transformation in an instant after three thousand years, but the Master of Heaven and Earth should be able to perceive it.

It's merely a question of how much he knows.

The enemy before him might not be the real enemy, nor the only enemy.

If he wishes to completely transcend from this level 4 Cultivation Profound Realm, he is still missing one last shackle.

The name of that shackle is the Master of Heaven and Earth.

He cannot fathom what the Master of Heaven and Earth intends to do to him, whether it's benevolence or malice?

Yet he never places hope on others.

If he were the Master of Heaven and Earth, finding a little being with obvious Marvelous Treasure within his small world, what would he do?

He cannot harbor malicious intent, but he must remain vigilant; this saying has a premise, which is: the power between the two sides is equal.

But when the power is unequal, the strong can find innumerable reasons to oppress the weak, fingering them while consuming them, and the weaker side must learn to bare its teeth and claws, presenting the demeanour of mutual destruction if unwilling to surrender.

Luck does not bring survival; in the power imbalance, for the weaker party to speak of righteousness and morality would be courting death; warm water can always cook frogs, hidden places hold thunder.

Looking at the Twelve-Petaled Black Lotus Fire fiercely burning, baring teeth and claws, threatening mutual destruction, Song Yan revealed a smile.

Suddenly, he slightly tilted his head, and asked, "Ningxin, when was our clan summoned here?"

Tang Ningxin was taken aback, looking at that distant pure white silhouette's side face, her heart incredibly complicated, yet her body was honest, swiftly collecting the ancient zither, transforming into a shadow, landing instantly behind Song Yan, half-kneeling, respectfully replying, "Reporting to Ancestor, it was eleven years ago."

Eleven years ago?

Song Yan pondered.

At that time, he should still be perfecting his "Abbot Bodhi" form in the Sea of Suffering Buddhist Sect.

It seems the Master of Heaven and Earth summoned the Formless Ancient Race to fill this Black Lotus Soul Threshold purely as punishment for Formless Ancestor's betrayal.

However...

His eyes lifted slightly, suddenly speaking again: "Little Xi."

Princess Xi in the distant was startled, hurriedly mimicking, soaring from afar, landing half-kneeling in reverence, straightforwardly saying, "Ancestor, what do you command?"

Song Yan said, "Since you once investigated the Dragon Elephant Ancient Race, has the Dragon Elephant Ancient Race ever incorporated outsiders into their clan like the Formless Ancient Race today?"

Princess Xi shook her head, saying, "Things are long past, but... some marriage alliances within the Dragon Elephant Ancient Race still existed, which is why Little Xi was later taken away by Ancestor Ningxin."

Song Yan asked further, "Ningxin, how many outsiders closely related to our clan have been drawn in?"

Tang Ningxin began to count the names one by one.

Each name had a connection to Song Yan.

As for those completely unrelated, none were drawn in.

With Tang Ningxin's last word, Song Yan squinted, a fleeting obscure shadow flickered, then he calmly smiled, saying, "It seems there's some misunderstanding between Song and the Master of this world; alas that we cannot meet and clarify in person."

Having said that, he turned to look at the Ice Crystal Flood Dragon hovering mid-air, slightly bowed, and said, "Song was born and grew here, the chance here, no intention of offense. I hear you once made a transaction with Handeng; why not be frank with me and trade?"

Song Yan, who had been ruthlessly slaughtering until now, seemed very sincere and courteous.

After the bow, he quietly stood there, waiting for a response.

Upon reaching his current Realm, he has been able to perceive... the Celestial Calamity Beasts are one of the few powers completely controlled by the Master of Heaven and Earth, just that the Master cannot possibly have the energy to split into thousands of divines, to meticulously control each Calamity Beast. To allow them to follow the action of "extinguishing Netherworld's Qi" is already the limit.

However, although unable to divide into thousands and descend into the human world, temporarily descending into one should still be feasible.

Indeed, soon after his voice fell, an energy shield isolating all probes enveloped him and an Ice Crystal Flood Dragon.
