Ancient God Ruins.
Burial God Hill.
Spirit Tomb.
Somewhere in the Dragon Grotto.
Two graceful, charming figures walked side by side. Everywhere they went, they stunned those from the Upper Realm, who couldn't help but marvel at how such peerless beauties could exist in the Lower Realm. However, the cold aura the two women naturally exuded seemed sharp enough to pierce one's soul, so no one dared to approach and strike up a conversation.
It wasn't until they reached the Azure Dragon Sword Array that the two women finally stopped.
Xun Mi looked at the ground strewn with skeletons, shook her head lightly, and said, "We're still a step too late. Someone has already broken through the Sword Array."
Then she noticed that even the Storage Magical Treasures carried by the skeletons had been scavenged. Who could be so greedy as to not leave even a single scrap?
Lin Xiyue also appeared helpless and asked, "Sister Mi, where shall we go now?"
Xun Mi thought for a moment and said, "You've already broken the Qilin Sword Array, and neither the Gluttonous Sword Array nor the Golden Roc Sword Array are suitable for you. Let's head to the Divine Organ Ground. Thinking about it, there's really nothing at Burial God Hill that you need right now. It just so happens that I've recovered quite a bit during this time, so I should be able to help you open the Divine Organ Gate."
...
「Land of Lawlessness」
First thing in the morning, Luo Xiu found Kuang Pi, who was still contemplating the copper piece in the Hundred Herbs Garden. He told him that he planned to leave the Land of Lawlessness today to continue exploring the Spirit Tomb.
Kuang Pi seemed quite helpless. "It's a pity," he said. "I'm at a crucial point, so I can't accompany you this time."
Luo Xiu smiled. "No worries. You just focus on your contemplation here."
"Right, Xiao Luo, take this." Suddenly remembering something, Kuang Pi opened his bear paw to Luo Xiu, and a glint of golden light erupted from above his palm. As the light faded slightly, Luo Xiu saw that it was a key fragment.
Kuang Pi smiled. "You gave the copper piece to your big brother to help me complete the Wild Thunder Destroying Divine Lance, so naturally I, as your big brother, can't take advantage of you. Take this key fragment."
Luo Xiu didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the key fragment. He then took out the one he had obtained earlier in the Black Fiend Domain. When he put the two pieces together, they fit perfectly. However, this was only half of the whole key.
Kuang Pi said, "It seems you still need two more pieces... but I believe that with your abilities, you'll surely find them all."
Luo Xiu replied, "When the time comes, we'll explore the Divine Oracle Cave Heaven together."
"Alright!"
...
After leaving the Land of Lawlessness, Luo Xiu followed the map of the Spirit Tomb left by Yan Daoling to find the exit of the Dragon Grotto. This time, aside from bringing Pig Dragon as his mount, Luo Xiu only brought along the two little girls, Dou Dou and Yaya, as well as Mu Xueyan, who had insisted on coming.
As for Luo Ying and Hua Muyan, they were busy training the Fox Clan warriors and the Zhangwei little demons, so they couldn't get away. Meanwhile, Xiao Luanzi and Yao Ritian had drunk themselves into oblivion the previous night and were still out cold.
Upon leaving the Dragon Grotto, Luo Xiu followed the map to the Gluttonous Palace, which was the closest location. The map from Yan Daoling was incredibly detailed; the reverse side even had comprehensive information about each area, including warnings and precautions.
There was a Sword Array in the Gluttonous Palace, which was the Gluttonous Sword Array of the Five Divine Sword Arrays. In terms of sheer danger, the Gluttonous Sword Array was far more perilous than the other four. This was because eerie Spiritual Power would periodically surge out from within the array, devouring all nearby life. In the face of that strange, devouring Spiritual Power, even Dao Jade powerhouses were as insignificant as ants.
...
After nearly a full day of travel, Luo Xiu and his group finally arrived at the Gluttonous Palace.
The Gluttonous Palace was once an exceptionally luxurious palace, with golden bricks, jade tiles, and countless treasures, truly epitomizing the Taotie's greed to the fullest. But now, the palace was in ruins. The reason for its ruin was not the erosion of time, but the fact that a Taotie lives in everyone's heart.
The golden bricks and jade tiles had been dug up and carried away by treasure hunters. The countless treasures had also been completely scavenged. The entire Gluttonous Palace resembled the skeleton of a colossal beast, picked clean of its flesh and blood by insects.
Luo Xiu's group didn't linger and went straight to the Gluttonous Sword Array, only to find that the area outside was already crowded with people. His entourage was quite eye-catching—a man with three women, riding on the back of a fierce-looking giant crocodile—so they attracted everyone's attention the moment they arrived.
But Luo Xiu didn't care. He felt no need to be low-key in front of these nobodies from the Upper Realm.
At that moment, a strange light flickered within the Gluttonous Sword Array ahead, accompanied by bursts of powerful energy fluctuations, indicating that someone was likely causing trouble inside.
Luo Xiu asked, "Master Ping, are there any treasures inside this Gluttonous Sword Array?"
Master Ping, cradled in Mu Xueyan's arms, laughed. "I can only say it's much richer than the Azure Dragon Sword Array. The Gluttonous Revered One was naturally greedy and loved to collect treasures."
Upon hearing this, a happy smile spread across Luo Xiu's face. Dou Dou and Yaya also grinned happily. Treasures were always good news.
Just then, Master Ping added, "But don't get your hopes up too high. Most of the treasures the Gluttonous Revered One collected were edible. It's been so long now; who knows if they're still good to eat."
Luo Xiu was momentarily speechless.
"Yo, little beauty from the Lower Realm, is that you?"
While they were talking, a mocking voice came from behind Luo Xiu. He turned to see five young men dressed in identical red outfits. They stood on a floating divine carpet, which appeared to be some kind of flying Magical Treasure. Their bright red clothes and exotic attire, combined with their handsome faces, gave them a rather flamboyant look.
The leader completely ignored Luo Xiu, his gaze fixed on Mu Xueyan. His eyes were filled with unabashedly malicious intent.
"You left without saying goodbye last time. I didn't expect we'd meet again here. This must be destiny," he said. "It seems our love is fated."
Mu Xueyan's expression turned ugly, her eyes brimming with absolute disgust. These five were the same lecherous scoundrels she and Yang Zhilu had encountered after entering the Ancient God Ruins. The two of them had narrowly escaped their clutches.
Dou Dou put her hands on her hips and said indignantly, "Destiny my ass! I can tell you're no good just by looking at you! You're nothing but a bunch of lechers!"
With a wave of her small hand, a black umbrella and a broken sword appeared in her grasp. "State your names! Dou Dou doesn't slay nameless nobodies!"
At that moment, the onlookers nearby all looked at Luo Xiu and his companions with pity.
"These mortals from the Lower Realm are nothing but ants, yet they act so high-profile when they're away from home."
"Bringing such a beautiful girl out without even trying to cover her up. They're screwed now that the Jade Delight Sect has its eyes on them."
"The one leading them should be Li Huan, the Chief Disciple of the Jade Delight Sect. He's already at the Earth Immortal level. I heard he's currently pushing for the Dao Jade Realm, and the sect even captured over a hundred virgins for him to help."
"I heard his master, the so-called Empress Mei Ji, entered the Emperor Realm three years ago. That's why he's been so arrogant and unrestrained in the Upper Realm these past two years!"
"I heard that Empress Mei Ji has been with many men... including her own disciples..."
"Shh! Do you have a death wish? Stop spouting nonsense! The Jade Delight Sect raises their strength through dual cultivation."
"Alas, it looks like this Lower Realm girl will become his Furnace Tripod."
...
Amidst the crowd's murmuring, Li Huan stepped off the divine carpet and walked through the air toward Luo Xiu's group. Seeing that Luo Xiu didn't dare to speak, Li Huan scoffed with disdain. "Lower Realm Mortal, you're not worthy of such a pretty girl. Get lost."
Luo Xiu still said nothing, as he had no interest in these riffraff.
Just then, a piercing howl echoed from within the Gluttonous Sword Array, and a figure flew out.
Li Huan looked up, his eyes instantly brightening.
"It's Master Huo!" he exclaimed, hurriedly rushing over. "Master Huo, are you alright? How is my master? Why hasn't she come out?"
