The location of Xizhou is on the western border of Godrealm, with endless seas to the west and south. The headquarters of Han Lan, the leader of the Bamen sect, is situated on top of a hundred-zhang cliff here, overlooking the sky above and connecting to the Southern Sea below. It is considered a sacred place on the continent.

"We Xizhou are different from the chaotic air and constant warfare in the Western Wilds. The Xizhou Great Grassland is also a quite famous place." Han Junyan, the leader of the Wuying Pavilion, spoke endlessly about his hometown, leaving Yuanhui no choice but to smile and nod.

"Yes, but... shouldn't the senior return to Xizhou earlier? The junior is still waiting for your news." Unable to resist Yuanhui's repeated persuasion, the old man finally stopped and bid a respectful farewell to Wuxian, who was standing on a prominent rock resting.

Seeing Wuxian smile faintly, the old man released a powerful aura and transformed into a shadow soaring towards the southwest of Godrealm.

"Teacher!"

Although Wuxian was an acquaintance, Yuanhui couldn't help but treat him like an elder, showing a hint of skepticism towards the seemingly mysterious old man.

Wuxian smiled without speaking, making a beckoning gesture with his index finger. Yuanhui quickly struggled to sit on the edge of the rock like a puppy, bending his knees to listen intently in front of his teacher.

"Oh, I always feel it's unreliable?"

"Do not worry. You may doubt him, but you must believe in his ancestral master, also his ancestor, a figure who once dominated the continent!" Upon hearing the teacher's reply, Yuanhui sighed. "Why trust a fallen immortal powerhouse?"

"Naive!" *Slap!*

Misinterpreting Yuanhui's behavior, Wuxian angrily slapped him, then continued to instruct his disciple who was covering his swollen face, "How could a young generation like you understand? Back then, Immortal Emperor Han Tianxing participated in the battle against the Black Emperor!”

Immortal Emperor! So...

"Ah!” Yuanhui suddenly realized, “So the so-called pinnacle of limitless mastery is not the end yet!"

Wuxian smirked slyly, "Mastering the limitless is different from other realms, requiring four expansions to cover and reach the level of immortality."

He then added, "As for the so-called Black Emperor, he was a true immortal emperor powerhouse, reaching the highest realm of immortality! With the joint attack of our four pavilions and the assistance of eight limitless-level powerhouses from various domains, we managed to defeat the Black Emperor."

Listening to the story, Yuanhui was filled with astonishment. Just the limit-level powerhouses could already destroy the heavens and earth!

If it were an Immortal Emperor, could this continent... really endure it?

Seeing his disciple's worries, Wuxian could only smile at his ignorance, “Haha, did you always think the Holy God Empire was the whole world then?”

"Isn't it? The Wujia Clan under the Holy God Emperor is currently the top power on the continent!" Yuanhui grew up in the Prince Xuwu's Mansion in the Imperial City, and the Holy God Emperor's power was considered nearly limitless. On the continent, it was difficult to find ten people as powerful as them!

"How laughable, a frog in a well!" Mocking Yuanhui, Wuxian began to tell a story about a person that this playboy had never heard of.

Han Tianxing, the former leader of the Wuying Pavilion, was recommended as the leader of the Four-Pavilion Alliance sixty years ago.

Yuanhui, feeling exhausted, slowly slid down the wall to the floor, while Wuxian, unfazed, spread his hands in resignation. The map in his hand slid down the wall, unfolding perfectly in front of Yuanhui.

"Did you see that? The location of the Holy Empire only occupies less than a quarter of the continent, and compared to the power of the Eight Sects, in fact... it doesn't even hold a significant position!"

(At the same time, in Yujia City on the West Coast)

"Big steamed buns, three copper coins each!"

An old uncle had tied a headscarf early in the morning and was selling by the roadside.

The streets of the town had just awakened from the darkness, and immediately caught the attention of a man and a woman.

"Selling buns... Huh?!"

There were breakfast stalls calling out all over the street, but almost all were attracted by the peculiar demeanor of this couple.

The likely reason was because of their outfits that were far too different from ordinary people.

People were very familiar with these clothes.

On the clothes of the man and the woman, there were embroidered nine-colored flower petals of the Nine-colored Heavenly Pattern.

These were the attire that only Inner Disciples of the Four Great Sects could wear.

For people like them, pedestrians on the street, even those dressed in luxurious silk and satin, had to give way!

"Never provoke anyone from the Four Sects, especially the Inner Disciples!"

An old man on the street was advising his grandson, perhaps his voice was slightly heard by the woman.

She revealed a frosty gaze from beneath her long bangs and gave them a glare.

"Do remember...!"

Seeing the woman getting angry, the old man immediately quieted down.

He was initially baffled, just now...

Did Juxi and Yukari's outfits reveal some extraordinary identities?

Juxi was about to ask her why, but she hurriedly urged Juxi.

"Juxi, now is not the time to worry about them, let's get out of here first."

"Mm."

Under the persistent urging of his senior sister, Juxi finally threw away the pile of indifferent glances that they no longer had time to care about, and hastened towards the address given by their master.

They searched the entire South District but could not find the workshop.

"Well, this should be the place... Master, what do you think?"

"This is your trial, so don't go causing trouble!"

Oh, every time Juxi asked his senior sister, she immediately rebuffed him with a stern look.

After breakfast, they went to inquire about the whereabouts of their master's apprentice uncle, and in the end, Juxi had to settle for a random inn with his senior sister.

"Waiter, a room, and uh, some wine... just beef will do!"

As he spoke, Juxi took out a silver coin from his pocket.

"Hey, hey, you can't drink, can you? Is it really okay like this?"

"Alright, two persons, right? Upstairs, please!"

With that, Juxi and the inn's waiter ascended to the room next to Yuanhui on the second floor, where they made some adjustments inside.

Even though he was half asleep in the room, Juxi was still not someone to underestimate.

"You know what... maybe this is the way to go... I!"

Lying on the bed, Juxi yelled madly under the influence of alcohol.

"Sister, aren't we relying on our wits to roam the world? With your intelligence and my strength, aren't we like... roaming dragons and playing phoenixes?"

"Tsk, roaming dragons and playing phoenixes, who do you think you are? You're just an ugly duckling trying to be a swan!"

Although he looked drunk, his gaze seemed to intentionally remind his senior sister.

"Sigh... Alright, I promise you, but you have to promise me to drink less in the future!"

"Hahaha... Of course, no problem at all. It's just a small thing!!"

"Really, wild child, don't be so arrogant!"

Suddenly, Juxi fell completely silent, and Yukari looked at him, seeming to have already fallen asleep, so she didn't disturb him further.

Dusk was falling, but the sky was already adorned with countless stars like a river of banners.

"In fact, Master deceived everyone, I am not an orphan."

With his eyes still swollen, Juxi walked alone in the desolate bamboo forest behind the mountain, seeking the essence that should not belong to him.

"I don't understand!"

Bamboo forest? Cave entrance? Pool of water? Looking at the familiar surroundings, Juxi muttered to himself, "Regardless of this life or the next, am I really just a redundant existence without even the chance to shine alongside others?"

Using his divine sense, he tried to activate his spiritual energy with a bit of hope, but a soft and faint red firelight completely dispelled this thought.

He could only sigh helplessly and continue walking away.

Unconsciously, he found himself back at the dark and damp entrance of the cave. After hesitating for a moment, he wandered into the depths of the cave. Although the cave was not clean, compared to the colorful world outside, it had a touch of tranquility and peace.

Taking a whiff of the earthy scent in the cave, Juxi stretched lazily and lay on a flat rock, using the faint starlight from the entrance to admire the scattered "fairies" in the sky. Unable to help himself, Juxi couldn't help but ponder a question – what was the original intention of coming here through endless reincarnations?

In his previous life, he was just a high school student working in an unnamed small town, a mere supporting role on any stage of society.

But in his previous life, he had a deeply memorable youthful love.

At the age of seventeen, Juxi, with his outstanding grades, entered a prestigious high school, and everyone in his family and his teachers were overjoyed.

In his first year of college, he fell in love with the beauty from the neighboring class. He liked the fresh and beautiful camisole she wore, combined with her eye-catching figure, which immediately plunged him into an abyss from which there was no escape.

Yes, an abyss!

The first girl he met in college became his happiest and most joyful first love, but also the person who hurt him the most deeply!

In four years of college, Juxi spent only three.

It was all because Juxi was too honest, he actually believed her sweet words and spent the money earned from working at school on her, even the money for meals!

Almost every day for three years, he bought this and that for that girl! Day after day, year after year...

Finally, one day, in a chance encounter after class, he broke up with her in front of another man at the hotel entrance, putting an end to this relationship full of deception.

He still remembers the last words he said when saying goodbye: "Don't play with the emotions of innocent boys casually. If it's just pure deception, then please have some self-respect!"

Juxi, who had not been eating well for a long time and was malnourished, was already pale, with his body gradually becoming emaciated, looking listless. Coupled with this heavy blow, he could no longer bear the weight of this heavy price paid for deception.

The next day, a certain morning newspaper reported: "This morning, a college student from a university in our city fell to his death in front of the school building, and the cause is still under investigation."

The world immersed in darkness consumed his soul, and a brand new world appeared before him - the desolate continent!

An era where a brutal wildness is everywhere to be seen.

And it is precisely because of this that we have the present!
