"Someone from the Kunlun Exotic Realm came to find me."

Li Changming was taken aback, then became very interested and said, "Someone from Kunlun?"

"Didn't you already know?"

Lu Ren glanced sideways at Li Changming. This guy despised evil as his enemy, and if it weren't for giving Lu Ren an explanation, he might have dealt with Liu Quanqing himself. Yet his personality seemed quite... peculiar.

Indeed, once one's strength reaches a certain level, having some strange hobbies is not surprising.

For instance, Lei Zhao, according to the Security Bureau's data, liked affairs between men and women, needing at least ten women daily to feel satisfied.

But he was rich and healthy, and many women with high desires were quite willing, so the Security Bureau had nothing to say.

After all, it was reasonable and nothing more than keeping a mistress rather than prostituting.

Besides, today's girls are quite desirous inside, so it's nothing major.

"Knowing is one thing." Li Changming's face was full of longing: "If there's a chance, I must visit to see the people and affairs there. I heard you slayed a demon?!"

Lu Ren slightly nodded, gazing into the distance.

"Perhaps they came because of that; martial arts cultivation thrives in Kunlun, and the path of cultivation, with a balance of Spirit and body under abundant material conditions, prospers."

"Damn." Li Changming couldn't help but mutter, "Anyone who can come out from the Kunlun passage unscathed isn't an ordinary person."

Lu Ren calmly said, "There might be other routes to Kunlun that we haven't discovered yet."

"True enough."

After a pause, Li Changming said, "Maybe in Kunlun, the magical techniques and divine techniques can indeed be truly wielded."

Indeed, they can be. Back then, Kong Qiu performed a technique called 'Divide Land into River' right in front of Lu Ren, making Lu Ren regard him as a 'Celestial Being'.

"Here comes."

Lu Ren suddenly said.

"Here comes?"

Li Changming looked puzzled. About ten seconds later, he felt the Earth's magnetic field suddenly change, and a field entirely different from the real world arrived from a great distance.

He said in astonishment, "I didn't expect you to sense things from such a distance. It's a pity you don't pursue the path of pure Spirit. You should be able to sense the existence of the Spirit Realm by now, right?"

Lu Ren slightly raised his head, activating his Heart Eye. Above the real world appeared a layer of the illusory world, where traces of people's movements were faintly visible.

Since reaching Bright Awakening, he had been able to sense this Spirit Realm. The world is said to have been created by countless Qi Cultivation cultivators focusing on spiritual cultivation from ancient times to the present. But without an original Spirit Dimension world, constructing such a Spirit Realm is like making something out of nothing.

"Has Li Zhenshou been in?"

Li Changming slightly shook his head: "It's the main ground of the Qi Cultivation cultivators. If you enter rashly, there will be danger. Maybe you'll encounter some ancients in there."

Lu Ren, upon hearing this, became interested: "Then I'll look for an opportunity to go in and take a look."

Li Changming was taken aback: "Astral projection always involves danger. Without becoming a Yang God, how can you detach from the physical shell?"

As they talked, they watched the Taoist figure approaching from afar.

The Taoist took a step, shrinking the ground into inches. Clearly, he was far away in one moment, and in the next moment, he appeared before Lu Ren and Li Changming.

The Taoist circled around Lu Ren and Li Changming, then his gaze fell on Lu Ren, bowing, he said, "I am Chen Xuzi of the Mingyang Sect on Kunlun Qionglai Peak. I wonder who has been to Jade Bamboo Mountain."

Though he said he wondered who, Chen Xuzi's gaze was fixed on Lu Ren.

Lu Ren's expression was calm.

"That Jade Bamboo claimed to belong to the Immortal Sect of Qionglai Peak; is it you?"

Chen Xuzi's eyes shone brightly, causing the magnetic field around to manifest in colorful images, and purple Qi swirled around him densely.

"It was you who killed Jade Bamboo and took her Inner Core!"

Lu Ren neither confirmed nor denied: "That Tiger Demon had killed countless people. Not tormenting it was already my mercy."

Hearing such provocative words from Lu Ren, Li Changming's face turned unpleasant.

"The opponent has deep refinement in the Qi Cultivation path and can easily invoke the 'Ten Thousand Qi' with his Divine Thought. Be careful."

Am I afraid of Spirit?

Lu Ren's expression remained calm. He stepped forward.

"Just hold the position for me. Leave the rest to me."

Chen Xuzi's expression also dimmed. He had nurtured that Tiger Demon for many years; it had become formidable, forming an Inner Core. It was about to be taken as a lead to advance his cultivation to the next Realm. He didn't expect it to be usurped midway.

He said lightly, "The path of cultivation is indeed paved with white bones. If you don't harness ten thousand powers into oneself, how can we speak of transcendence?"

Chen Xuzi's expression was extremely grim: "Do you know, you have blocked my path?"

Blocking someone's path is more severe than killing their parents and children.

"If your path involves wantonly taking lives to increase your own power, Taoist, your path is skewed indeed."

Lu Ren didn't stop but continued to advance slowly step by step, until he stopped five meters away from Chen Xuzi.

"So, Taoist Chen, what are your insights? If not, I will send you along with that Tiger Demon."

Chen Xuzi snorted coldly.

"In the End of Dharma Era, it's still the foolish types. Without the sacrifice of mortals, how can we of the Immortal Sect move forward? Path Determination."

Lu Ren fell silent, realizing that discussing these matters with someone so entrenched in such thinking was akin to speaking different languages, achieving nothing.

Boom!

A colossal sonic boom suddenly erupted, and in a blink, Lu Ren approached Chen Xuzi, unleashing a punch like the collapsing heavens, pressing toward Chen Xuzi's head.

Then, in Li Changming's view, Lu Ren suddenly suffered a heavy blow, flying backward and crashing into the mountainside nearby, shattering the rock face.

Chen Xuzi's expression was calm; he was holding a yellow talisman that was dried and unknown when clasped in his hand.

Rumble!

Lu Ren slowly crawled out from the mountain, a contemplative look on his face, and curiously asked, "What was that attack just now? Talismanic Magic?"

Seeing Lu Ren unaffected as if nothing had happened, Chen Xuzi's expression grew so gloomy it could drip water.

Could someone like this exist in the End of Dharma Era?

Even the Qi Union Talisman in his hand hadn't inflicted any substantial harm. If it had been anyone else, taking such a direct hit would have shattered both body and Spirit, turning them into a mist of blood in the sky.

This move had never failed.

At this moment, Chen Xuzi realized that although this place was already the End of Dharma Era, the Martial Path cultivators were still thriving considerably.

It's quite tricky.

Chen Xuzi assessed inwardly, his expression remained grim, without a change in demeanor.

"Ding, you were attacked by a Qi Union Talisman, and your body got a little scratched."

"Qi Union Talisman? Is it a special talisman-making technique unique to your Mingyang Sect Immortal Sect?"

When the Qi Union Talisman appeared in Chen Xuzi's hand just a moment ago, its magnetic field waves erupted, causing even Lu Ren to be moved.

That was Chen Xuzi, who Li Changming continuously referred to as 'Qi'.

Lu Ren looked down at his slightly tattered clothing; Martial Path cultivators always had a huge demand for clothes during battles.
