“Void rift…” A thunderous shout shook the entire Misty Mountains.

Immediately after, much to the awe of countless Mutant Beasts, the sky split apart, revealing a fissure resembling a shattered mirror. At the same time, a purple Road to Heavens, stretching endlessly into the distance, appeared before the eyes of all Mutant Beasts.

“What’s this?” An astonished cry escaped Demoni Phoenix’s beak, her eyes flickering with an intrigued look.

“The path to the Celestial Realm, also known as the Road to Heavens.” Explaining in a solemn voice, Bull Demon added, “Just a short while ago, Master has instructed you to also be included in the list of individuals going to the Celestial Realm.”

Demonic Phoenix was further stunned by Bull Demon’s explanation.

[‘Celestial Realm…’] These familiar words had totally taken her by her surprise. However, it was well within her expectations.

[Misty Mountains has been advancing farther and farther on the path of dominating powers. Now, it has reached a point where people could hardly look up.]

Just at this moment, a thunderous Dragon Roar shook the entire Misty Mountains before a mountain-like towering slowly rose in the eyes of countless Mutant Beasts.

Sarcosuchus, an Atavistic-type Behemoth, with the purest Rock Dragon Bloodline. Furthermore, the form currently visible to everyone’s eyes was still not his true form.

Although he could not be compare to the Progenitor of the Rock Dragons, who sheltered the entire Dragon Clan, his true body was still the size of several cities.

It was just that he had shrunk himself using his Divine Ability — Enlarging and Shrinking at Will.

*Thump, thump…* Sending fearsome tremors through the ground, Sarcosuchus stepped onto the purple Road to Heaven.

Although it was called the Road to Heavens, it was actually a segment of Yu Zi Yu’s Cosmic Root. It was just that this segment of the Cosmic Root was so vast and immense that it seemed like a path leading to the sky.

“I’m leaving first,” bidding his goodbye in a resonant voice, Sarcosuchus, carrying several mid-sized Spirit Veins, started walking along the Road to Heavens.

*Thump, thump, thump…* With increasingly intense tremors and shining Spirit Veins, Sarcosuchus’ figure disappeared at the end of the Road to Heavens in the blink of an eye.

And then, a moment later…

*Screech…* At the urging of Bull Demon, Demonic Phoenix unfurled her jet-black wings with a sharp yet melodious screech.

The moment she unfurled her wings, the Mutant Beasts of Misty Mountains were completely stunned by the dreamlike glow, resembling fragments of stars, released by her jet-black wings and the beautiful, mesmerizing trail they left behind.

Perhaps, this was the first time in their lives they had seen such a beautiful sight.

Perhaps, it was too shocking.

For a moment, this part of Misty Mountains had fallen into complete silence.

Amidst this silence, Demonic Phoenix transformed into a streak of starlight, shooting towards the depths of the rift.

This was the first time Demonic Phoenix had truly revealed herself before many Mutant Beasts in Misty Mountains, but she had deeply imprinted her image in the hearts of many Mutant Beasts, and not because of her strength, but simply because of her elegance and extremely noble posture.

…

Shortly afterward, on the Moon, as if sensing something, Yu Zi Yu’s eyelids slightly twitched.

“They’re coming…” Murmuring, Yu Zi Yu’s Spiritual Energy surged.

*Booooom…* Then, a fearsome tremor travelled through the purple root entering the depths of the Void Space..

Immediately after, a faint layer of Spiritual Energy membrane enveloped the entire purple root.

At this moment, if one were to look towards the depths of the Void Space, they would certainly see a purple root, resembling an underwater tunnel constructed by Humans, stretching across.

Using ‘Spiritual Energy’ as a barrier, Yu Zi Yu had completely blocked off all the storms in the Void Space.

And the reason Yu Zi Yu was going through so much trouble was because apart from some Natural Disaster-Class Transcendents, there were also some Tier-2 and Tier-3 Transcendents ascending to the Moon.

By no means were they weak, actually most of them were quite stronger in their own Tier, yet it was still somewhat difficult for them to rely solely on themselves to block the cosmic storms.

As a result, Yu Zi Yu naturally needed to protect them.

…

Bit by bit, time slowly passed by. In the blink of an eye, half a day had already elapsed.

[I guess they have been delayed by those Tier-2 and Tier-3s.]

However, just in a moment…

*Rooooaar…* A thunderous Dragon Roar shook the entire Moon.

Looking up, from within a newly opened rift in space, a creature with fiendish eyes resembling a small mountain, slowly emerged, much to Yu Zi Yu’s pleasant surprise.

“Greetings, Master,” Sarcosuchus greeted in a thunderous voice, bowing his head.

“You’ve worked hard.” With a light chuckle, Yu Zi Yu’s root swished through space, branching into countless Rootlets, resembling Giant Pythons, and sweeping towards Sarcosuchus’ back, where several glittering Spirit Veins lay.

Spirit Veins were one of the most important resources. They not only could expand Yu Zi Yu’s nine Space Pockets, but also enhance the concentration of Spiritual Energy on the Moon.

Furthermore, the Moon itself was not large. If enough Spirit Veins were buried deep within the Moon, presumably the entire Moon, nourished by these Spirit Veins, would transform into a true Immortal Paradise within a short time.

Of course, the Moon itself also had Spirit Veins. However, perhaps because of the influence of the Lunar Energy, most of the Spirit Veins here were of Ice-Attribute, which happened to be quite beneficial to Yu Zi Yu’s Pocket of Ice.

…

Right then, as if sensing something, Yu Zi Yu suddenly narrowed his eyes, looking towards the rift.

Immediately, he was mesmerized by the sight of stars falling from the sky, accompanied by countless jet-black feathers.

“What is this?” Yu Zi Yu’s eyes narrowed slightly in surprise as he saw the black feathers interweaving in the starlight, weaving a cold yet extremely beautiful figure.

Despite they were of different species, Yu Zi Yu was still mesmerized by her beauty. This was a kind of ‘beauty’ that transcended races, just like Nine Tails.

He had now encountered another one, and she happened to be the Second Monstrosity of the Asian Continent — Demonic Phoenix.

“Nice to meet you, Phoenix…” Expressing his joy, Yu Zi Yu burst into a light laughter, his body trembling slightly.

“Uh…” Just as Divine Phoenix was about to respond, she suddenly froze. The moment she exited the rift, her eyes were caught by the Divine Tree soaring into the sky.

A Divine Tree with a canopy so huge that it blanketed the space above, giving the impression as if it was supporting the entire universe. Its glowing branches, dancing in space, resembled Divine Chains. Its canopy blanketed Heaven, seemingly supporting the entire universe. In addition, nine huge vortices swirled continuously around its trunk.

However, this was not the most shocking thing. The most shocking thing was the Green Dragon coiling around the trunk, continuously spiralling upwards straight to the canopy, where its head emerged.

Its eyes were majestic yet indifferent, silently overlooking, like a god, overlooking all living beings.
