Chapter 13122 — To Receive an Exploration Invitation

He Piaoliang wore an expression as though she were looking at something not quite human. "Every time a divine-war secret realm is discovered, there is only one chance to explore it, and every exploration slot is strictly controlled by the Divine War Alliance."

"Anyone who receives an exploration invitation is bound to be a long-renowned, elite team."

"Teams at our level—even with a single championship from the Divine Assembly Grand Tournament—under normal circumstances wouldn't even register in the eyes of the Divine War Alliance."

"The Divine War Alliance has always recognized only divine-war results. Every other internal tournament counts for nothing."

Wei Zhao fell into thought...

After seeing Hong Xixiang off, Meng Liangfeng turned around and cast his gaze toward the white-haired Daoist by the water pool.

As for Chen Qingshi himself, he was now only one step short of that minimum threshold: condensing one more tribulation scar upon his true body's dao-body.

"Wash your hands, we're eating right away." After the kiss, Shen Yuxiu did not wait for Zhao Hui to react; she at once walked lightly toward the kitchen.

In Liu Qi's estimation, with his tier-three strength, he could not claim to walk the jianghu sideways, but...

"Hey, hey, slow down, girl. Jinggui, see your auntie home—the road's bad, mind your step and watch the way." Granny Fang answered while calling for Shen Jinggui to fetch the lantern and escort the guest.

Zhang Yuqing's eyes were half closed, his five hearts upturned toward heaven; two faint trails of smoke coiled around him, winding and refusing to disperse, calming the heart and steadying the spirit.

Tao Tianze had assumed that even if the Ji Ping and Ji Hong families were on bad terms, the worst would be a refusal to speak to one another. He had never imagined it would come to this. Yet it was not his place to comment, so he glanced at Ji Ping—and saw Ji Ping's brows already knitting tight.

In the council hall, the elders Bai Xia and Bai Chi sat at the lower seats on either side, while in the center sat Bai Yunzong's Fourth Elder, Bai Da, draped in white robes.

"Those are vampire bats—creatures of the demon realm! One bite, and without a hemostatic elixir we'll bleed dry and die!" Lin Ruyan shouted at the top of her voice.

These days Fang Yan and the children no longer took their breakfast in the Fang family courtyard. The main reason was that Shen Yusui still needed nursing; Fang Yan, having looked after the child all night, was exhausted and none too willing to hurry over here at the crack of dawn.

As he spoke, Chen Xiao's body gave a shudder, and at once a white flame enveloped him from head to toe—Chen Xiao had directly set the Heavenly Dragon Star Fire of the Heavenly Dragon Star Scripture circulating. Then his gaze turned toward the Infernal Flame Realm.

"Xuan Zhan, how many times have I told you—your master likes you too!" Zhao Yangran's reproachful tone carried a measure of doting affection.

"What on earth is going on?" You Ma muttered to himself in terror. At this moment, he realized that something terrible had happened.

A humming vibration arose, and the next instant those streams of dim yellow breath began to condense, directly forming the figure of a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man's gaze fell upon Immortal Wan Xu, his eyes full of coldness and indifference.

Yet the heart-demon Jiang Xie flicked aside the black-gold lightning with a single hand, as easily as swatting away a mosquito.

In the days that followed, Yan Yuncheng studied medicine under Elder Jun. Thanks to the 'Illustrated Compendium of the Myriad Spirits of Heaven and Earth', Yan Yuncheng was thoroughly versed in the five pharmacopoeias—herbs, wood, insects, stone, and grain—and his talent for the art of medicine left even Elder Jun clicking his tongue in amazement.

All the natives of the micro-planes who knew of this powerful neighbor did their utmost to conceal their plane coordinates, yet the powerful gravitational fluctuations inherent to lower planes left them nowhere to hide. Submission or destruction—this was the leitmotif of planar war.

The silver blood-demon worm they had dealt with earlier had merely been Beast-Emperor rank, and it had nearly wiped them out entirely. To what horrifying degree would this Saint-rank one reach?

"We shouldn't be killing one another, is that it? Then why did more than two hundred of my clansmen wither and die in the Buddha Mother's Tomb? Explain that to me." Xie Gongbao demanded.

Seeing the horse, Lin Yu and Chu Zifeng both narrowed their eyes and leaned their heads forward a fraction, studying closely just what sort of liquor was cradled in his arms—and what could give so many taverns in this Land of Drunkenness such confidence.

"Stop!" At that furious shout, the blade actually halted dead in midair, and the golden-armored guard captain seemed turned to stone as well, both hands raising the long saber, standing there utterly motionless.
