Looking at that familiar face, Zhao Lie was so moved that he was almost in tears. He was finally saved.

Then Zhao Lie called out to Fox Fairy Nannan in demon language: "Little Fox, hurry and save me! This kid's got me captured!"

Fox Fairy Nannan picked up the honey jar, just about to open the lid, but upon hearing Zhao Lie's call, her hand trembled suddenly, nearly dropping the jar on the ground. Then she looked at Demon King Zhao Lie with eyes full of disbelief, her heart overwhelmed with shock: "How is this possible! How can he be the real Great Demon King!"

The Great Demon King Zhao Lie was an unparalleled powerhouse in the Demon Race, possessing all sorts of incredible powers, his prestige in the Demon Race unmatched. How could he have fallen to this place, becoming a newborn little tiger?

With the honey jar in her arms, Fox Fairy Nannan stared wide-eyed and speechless at Demon King Zhao Lie, who at this point didn't care about his fallen appearance being seen by others, and could only call out again: "Yes, it's me! Quickly get me out of here!"

Upon hearing this, Fox Fairy Nannan took a deep breath and put aside her mixed feelings. She turned her head to look at Zhao Lie, then grabbed Demon King Zhao Lie and held him to her chest, casually walking out of the stone cave. Only then did she lower her voice and ask in demon language: "Are you really the Great Demon King Zhao Lie? How did you end up like this?"

Demon King Zhao Lie was held in the palm of Fox Fairy Nannan's hand, his adorable little eyes full of helplessness: "Don't even mention it! The court's Twelfth Tier Mystery involved the Power of Time. I was struck by that mysterious force and was reverted to my youth, almost becoming Innate Qi and dissipating. The worst part is, I was picked up by this kid, fell into his clutches, and it's tough for me! Please save me, and I swear I'll repay you someday."

Upon hearing this, Fox Fairy Nannan had a bitter expression: "Sorry, ancestor, I can't save you."

Zhao Lie was taken aback and instinctively asked, "Why?"

"Because I was captured by that kid too! I'm that kid's slave, I've fallen into the tiger's den myself, so how could I possibly save you?" Fox Fairy Nannan said with a face full of bitterness.

Demon King Zhao Lie froze upon hearing this. He had been wondering how Fox Fairy Nannan got mixed up with Zhang Chen, but hearing her words, the truth became clear.

The two looked at each other. Fox Fairy Nannan poured out the honey and brought a spoonful to Zhao Lie's mouth: "Ancestor, you'd better eat it, so you'll grow up faster and save me sooner. I'm counting on you, old man, to save me."

Zhao Lie was completely speechless upon hearing this, and could only sulkily swallow the honey, fuming inwardly: "Grow up fast and I'll take this kid down when I grow up."

Over there, Zhang Chen was forming hand seals, falling into a state of visualization, using the Visualization Technique to restore his Essence, Qi, and Spirit, hoping to quickly recover his magical power.

As Zhang Chen fell into visualization, a figure of a Taoist appeared in the void. The Taoist formed a hand seal with his right hand and held a treasure vase with his left, collecting Sun and Moon Essence from Heaven and Earth.

The Meditation Realm is the Endless Void, a dark and profound void without a trace of light, with only the Dharma Image conjured by Zhang Chen sitting in the void. It radiated brightness all around, creating a world of light, illuminating the void, and becoming the solitary presence in the darkness.

As Zhang Chen's thoughts and will poured into the conjured Dharma Image, silently operating the key processes to gather Sun and Moon Essence, who would have expected that a peculiar laugh suddenly echoed from the endless darkness: Hehe ~

Accompanying the eerie laughter was the sound of waves rolling, the sound of ocean waves echoing throughout the void.

"Swish~"

The Dharma Image opened its eyes, its gaze full of fear: 'This is my Meditation Void, how can there be laughter here? Is it a Heart Demon arising? Has a Heart Demon Tribulation descended? Or is someone trying to harm me?'

While Zhang Chen was perturbed and uncertain, he suddenly saw red light flickering in the distant dark void, illuminating the endless darkness with thousands of rays.

As the sound of waves roared, he saw a blood-red river appearing from the endless darkness.

Accompanying the blood river's appearance, an indescribable stench filled the air, making him want to open his mouth and vomit. That aura was terrifying, even the light emitted by his Dharma Image seemed to be tainted by the stench, tinged with a faint red hue.

At this moment, Zhang Chen gazed at the distant red glow, his eyes full of caution. His Meditation Void had always been stable and peaceful, when had such anomalies arisen?

The Sea of Blood surged and boiled, transforming into a mighty red tide, covering the entire sky, wrapping around from all sides, looming high as it rushed and swept toward Zhang Chen's Dharma Image.

At that moment, the Meditation Realm constructed by Zhang Chen seemed like a small reef in the ocean, with no power to resist the overwhelming tsunami.

"Damn it, what the hell is going on?" Zhang Chen stared at the red tide, his eyes filled with horror.

"Bang~"

The blood-red tide swept across the Heaven and Earth, crashing down fiercely, but Zhang Chen's Dharma Image burst forth with boundless light, the world barrier formed around him unshaken.

"So it was just a facade." Seeing that the ten-zhang void around his Dharma Image remained as steady as Mount Tai, immune to all laws, fending off the overwhelming tide, Zhang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes showing a hint of ease.
