The colossal scorpion, realizing its prey had fled, became uncontrollably enraged. It brandished its pincer-like mountains and its towering, steeple-high tail shot up as it charged towards Chu Mo.

"You just don't give up, do you?" Chu Mo bellowed.

Then he turned and ran.

If he didn't run, what else could he do? Against such a large creature, he was no match at all. Even if he could defeat it, he didn't want to fight it.

He might have been able to obtain numerous top-quality materials from the scorpion's body, but to tell the truth, Chu Mo didn't really value them. It wasn't that he looked down on the resources of the Immortal Realm, but rather that the pulsations from Heaven Slaying had grown increasingly intense!

Such fluctuations were something Chu Mo had never experienced before!

Even when he found a fragment of Heaven Slaying's blade, it had never been this restless!

Yes, restless!

This agitation was like a hungry infant wailing loudly; though Heaven Slaying didn't make any noise, Chu Mo was nonetheless disturbed and anxious, wishing he could find sooner what was causing such a reaction in Heaven Slaying.

Once he was sure of the direction, he immediately used Shrinking Ground into Inches, appearing in the far distance with each step.

Booming sounds continuously came from behind him.

The giant black scorpion relentlessly pursued him.

At that moment, Chu Mo recalled what the Fire Dragon had mentioned: The strong non-human creatures of the Immortal Realm had extremely keen senses and would never let him go once they spotted him.

"It seems I really need to find some technique that can seal the aura of my bloodline and physique for cultivation," Chu Mo muttered to himself.

He had many supreme inheritances, but most of those divine abilities were offensive or defensive. There was nothing for concealing his aura.

When you think about it, what need would a supreme have for disguise? Whatever the aura might be, probably any creature that sensed it would retreat immediately, right?

As for me, from now on, wherever I go, whenever I encounter a powerful non-human creature, it will want to eat me. Then, they'll hang behind me like a string of tails… How annoying is that!

Thinking about this, Chu Mo felt somewhat depressed because none of the cultivation techniques he practiced included such a method.

Forget it, let's get through this current dilemma before worrying about the future.

Although Chu Mo's Phantom Wind Step couldn't be considered the fastest technique in the world, it was certainly rare. Its speed was so incredible that in almost no time, he had thrown the mountainous black scorpion so far behind that it was out of sight.

The vibrations on the chest piece of Heaven Slaying grew even more intense. By this time, Chu Mo had already seen a vast expanse of ancient buildings towering among the distant, vast mountains ahead.

Upon closer inspection, many of the buildings were in ruins. Some had even collapsed into rubble.

Yet, these remnants still exuded an air of Xionghun magnificence!

As Chu Mo gazed at these ruins, a vision suddenly appeared before him.

More accurately, it surfaced within his divine sense sea.

It was an image from a very ancient era, where ferocious beasts roamed, and the essence of Heaven and Earth was fundamentally different from what it is now!

Is this... Dao Energy?

Is this the former Heavenly Realm?

Chu Mo's heart trembled slightly. He thought of many possibilities.

Because he felt as if he could sense the aura of Heaven and Earth, the sensation was extremely real, and strands of Dao Energy seemed within his grasp!

This place was still very desolate, with various mountains and rivers exuding a Primordial Chaos essence. And then, numerous cultivators were practicing their cultivation here; the divine abilities and techniques they used appeared rough, far less refined than the various techniques of the present time.

But their bodies were robust, their blood energy like dragons, enshrouded in a blood-red glow from afar; their bloodlines were also incredibly powerful, with appearances that vastly differed from the people of the present.

They worked hard to exist in this place, building their own habitats here!

Because there were so many mighty beasts in this area, their buildings also had to be constructed very sturdily.

Thus, gigantic blocks of stone, dozens or even hundreds of feet high, were cut out and then stacked one by one. In the end, towering structures rose up here!

When the last... and also the largest hall was completed, everyone gathered in the plaza, celebrating the occasion with high spirits and joy.

From then on, their lives seemed to stabilize, and everyone's faces beamed with happiness.

Then, time flew by, and the constellations shifted.

From weakness to strength, this place slowly rose, and more and more people came!

It seemed as if it took ten thousand ages to truly flourish.

Chu Mo even clearly saw several exceptionally noteworthy figures emerging from this place!

Because their figures were all hazy, shrouded by the laws of the Great Dao! Their faces were completely indiscernible! Even a Heaven Slaying... when appearing in the world, didn't have such an aura, did they?

Could these people... perhaps be... supreme beings?

Chu Mo's heart trembled enormously.

He became ever more convinced that these ruins were extraordinary. Although he did not understand why he was able to see these things, he still watched quietly, his expression solemn, like an audience from the future paying homage to the ancestors of the ancient past.

In the end, as the merciless passage of time went on, this place... finally began to decline. A great number of disciples left from here, carrying their bags and looking back reluctantly. Ultimately, they made the resolute decision to leave.

Many years later, this place finally became almost deserted, with only a few old elders remaining here.

With their deaths, this place finally collapsed completely!

Many, many years went by, and suddenly one day, deep within that hall, a rumbling noise emerged, and a blood moon rose directly, shedding its glow. Then... the seals on many buildings were instantly erased.

The buildings, no longer protected by the power of the laws, began to decay and collapse.

Following that, the blood moon swooshed back into the depths of the hall.

At this point, the scene came to an abrupt end.

Chu Mo shook his head, his face a picture of shock, muttering, "Blood moon? One of the ten blood moons? How could this thing... appear here?"

The big rooster had once mentioned that the Sky Mirror, the Chaos Furnace, and Heaven Slaying, these three super divine weapons, were thoroughly shattered and lost, and their whereabouts unknown, during the war of the bigwigs in the Heavenly Realm.

But according to the big rooster, that war seemed to be post-supreme era... a war of a group of Heaven Slayers!

At most, they were only Quasi-Supreme!

So, no matter how much time had passed, it should not have surpassed ten thousand years.

But the scenes that flashed through Chu Mo's spiritual sea just now must have spanned at least several hundred thousand years!

The big rooster said that of the ancient Sky Mirror, only six blood moons were embedded, and even the owner of the Sky Mirror back then had not found the remaining four.

Then this world must have collapsed in an extremely ancient era, much earlier than the war of those Heaven Slayers.

So that means, this ancient ruin must have also existed in the Immortal Realm in an incomprehensibly remote era!

So... the identity of this blood moon?

Chu Mo was suddenly frightened by his own speculation.
