At that moment, a gentle female voice came through, "Honorable guests have arrived, won't you stay a while longer before leaving?"

The giant rolled his eyes and said, "It's over… we've been targeted."

Following that voice, an extremely beautiful woman, dressed in a floral skirt, emerged from the bushes, her eyes twinkling with complex light, as she stared at the two of them.

The giant felt a bit uneasy under her gaze and said, "Don't blame me, eh, it was this human kid who recklessly drew that swarm of mosquitoes over here."

"Oh?" the woman said indifferently, "Is that so?"

"Yes, you can ask him if you don't believe me," the giant said, his gaze shifting evasively in apparent fear of the woman.

The woman gently smiled, "A human who has never entered this area manages to lead the Blackwater Mosquitoes toward the Dragonfly Clan's territory, how clever indeed."

"Yes, he's very clever," the giant said.

The woman sighed softly, "Well, this group of Blackwater Mosquitoes has been entrenched here for many years, always acting without restraint, and has killed quite a few other creatures. We have long wanted to fight them, and taking this opportunity to exterminate them might be for the best."

The giant scratched his head, making a silly face that was laughably foolish.

At this time, the woman glanced at Chu Mo and said faintly, "Human, why have you come here? Has no one ever told you this isn't a place for humans?"

Chu Mo said, "I apologize for the inconvenience I've caused you; I'm here to look for a friend of mine. I don't know if you've heard, but it's a giant rooster."

"Giant rooster?" the giant's eyes swiveled around, his body shivered, and his head shook like a rattle drum, "No, I haven't heard of it."

At this, the woman's expression also changed slightly, and with knitted brows, she looked at Chu Mo, "That rooster is your friend?"

"Have you seen him?" Chu Mo's face lit up with surprise, as he didn't expect to come across a clue so easily.

The woman's expression instantly turned rather unpleasant. Frowning, she shook her head and said, "You should leave, I haven't seen him."

"Huh?" Chu Mo looked at the woman strangely, then glanced at the giant, saying, "Did it hurt you all?"

"No, no, as the young Clan Leader of the Elephant Clan, how could I be bullied by a rooster?" the giant said, his mouth twitching, "There's nothing here for me anymore, I'm leaving."

With that, he actually turned and walked away without looking back.

The woman looked deeply at Chu Mo and said, "If that rooster truly is your friend, I'd suggest you stop looking for it."

"What happened? Is there something wrong?" Chu Mo asked.

Considering the nature of Phecda, Chu Mo believed it could cause trouble, but he didn't believe for a second that it was evil enough to do anything atrociously wicked.

The woman hesitated for a moment as she looked at Chu Mo. Then, from afar, came the muffled voice of the giant, "Clan Leader of the Dragonfly Clan, if you don't wish for your clan's ruin, you'd best not mention that rooster to the kid."

With a deep sigh, the woman gave Chu Mo a long look, "You'd better hurry back. This isn't where you should be. Return to where you came from and never inquire about this matter again."

Chu Mo shook his head, "I can't do that, even if you don't tell me, I'll keep searching until I find him. Because he's my companion, my friend. If he has done anything that harmed you, then I apologize on his behalf."

The woman hesitated, and after a long while, she finally said, "He hasn't harmed us. Even though the Tianji Clan naturally opposes the Dragonfly Clan, he has never hurt us. He isn't a bad person."

Looking at Chu Mo, the woman said, "He has provoked a terrifying enemy. Human, heed my advice and return quickly. Otherwise, you might never be able to leave this place."

At that time, the sound of a giant elephant came from afar, "Clan Leader Dragonfly, you've said too much! This matter will implicate all of us!"

The woman sighed with a helpless smile, "You've seen it, I can't go on. This matter concerns the lives of all creatures on this continent. I really can't tell you too much. If you truly don't want to give up and still wish to seek that Phecda, then continue heading southwest. But you must be careful, because it's very likely that they already know you're coming."

Chu Mo furrowed his brows, looked deeply at the woman, and nodded, "I understand, thank you for telling me so much. So... we shall meet again!"

Having said that, Chu Mo bowed to the woman with clasped hands and then turned around to leave immediately.

In the sky, the Dragonfly Clan had completely suppressed the Blackwater Mosquitoes. Although giant dragonflies continued to fall, the extinction of the Blackwater Mosquito was just a matter of time.

Not long after Chu Mo left, the giant man transformed from a giant elephant actually came back. His face bore a troubled look as he said to the woman, "You're going to doom all the creatures in this region!"

The woman looked at the imposing figure before her and spoke solemnly, "Rather than being oppressed like this, it's worth a try. Perhaps this human can resolve this deadlock."

"Impossible!" the giant roared softly, "No one can stand against that entity! That place... that place..." As he spoke, endless fear showed in his eyes, and he dared not continue.

The woman said indifferently, "That entity has ruled this domain for far too long, always unwilling to leave. All the creatures in the entire domain, including us, are subject to its control. When we reach the pinnacle of the ascension phase, we don't even dare to trigger the Heavenly Tribulation. To avoid revealing the secret of its existence, we can't even leave this domain to transcend elsewhere. We can only waste away here. I'm tired of this tyranny."

"You..." The giant looked at the woman and said, "You truly... you truly have no regard for your own life!"

The woman replied, "If survival in this region of the Immortal Realm means living in such desperation, I'd rather die. Giant Elephant, don't you ever wish to go to the Heavenly Realm to find your clansmen?"

The Giant Elephant's expression changed unpredictably as he looked at the woman, who stood there with a calm face.

After a long while, the Giant Elephant sighed, "But if you're counting on this human, you at least ought to have told him what kind of being he's up against!"

The woman smiled, "If I told him what kind of being it is, do you think he would still go?"

"..." The Giant Elephant was momentarily speechless, "Your Dragonfly Clan wasn't this cunning in the past."

"That's a prejudice. I also thought the Elephant Clan was dumb, and yet you led the Blackwater Mosquitos right here, didn't you?" The woman sneered coldly.

The Giant Elephant was left speechless.

At that moment, the woman suddenly said, "If it were someone else, I would probably do everything in my power to stop them from going there, urging them to leave quickly. But if it's him, maybe, just maybe, we truly have a chance at freedom."

The Giant Elephant was stunned, "You know this human youth?"

The woman smiled, "Almost every creature that enters the Fantasy Spirit Realm knows of him."

The Giant Elephant curled his lip, "I can't enter the Fantasy Spirit Realm, so what's the point of telling me this?"

The woman said, "He is Chu Mo, a... very powerful human Heavenly Genius! Even the top Heavenly Geniuses of the Heavenly Realm, in my opinion, may not be better than him."

The Giant Elephant was somewhat surprised, "That strong? But the problem is... that being far surpasses the bounds of what we in the Immortal Realm can withstand. This human, no matter how powerful he is, can't possibly be the match of that one!"

"That remains to be seen," said the woman, before looking up at the sky.
