Disagreements arise between the Vermilion Bird Camp and the Xuanwu Camp over dwindling resources and manpower. Xu Nian learns about the four major camps of Black Mountain Territory and the Vermilion Bird Camp's weakened state following recent battles. He also discovers the immense difficulty of reaching God Level and the scarcity of cultivation resources in the Divine World. The group registers with the Vermilion Bird Camp, receiving identity tokens, resources, and estates, but a hidden secret about Zhao Yanyun raises concerns.

Black Mountain Domain, North District, within a secluded courtyard.

Xu Nian and Zhao Yanyun were cuddled together.

Since their ascension, a full 24 hours had passed.

At this moment, they were filled with mixed emotions.

The life in the Divine World seemed completely different from what they expected.

"I’m sorry, husband, for causing you trouble. Should I change my appearance?" Zhao Yanyun said with a guilty look.

"It’s useless. Your transformation is just an ordinary secret technique, and for someone with a higher soul level than you, they can see through it at a glance; it doesn’t have much significance," Xu Nian shook his head and said.

A Divine-level expert can easily change their appearance.

But such a secret technique is utterly ineffective in the eyes of those with a powerful soul.

Otherwise, wouldn’t everyone in the Divine World be a beauty?

Of course, upon breaking through to the Divine-level, a person’s temperament and physical condition will be greatly improved, so unless someone has a very poor foundation, they generally won’t be ugly.

Like Zhao Yanyun, who was already a top beauty as a mortal, breaking through to the Divine-level would only make her more dazzling.

"Then what to do? Should I enter the Chaos Divine Palace?" Zhao Yanyun said worriedly.

Xu Nian smiled and said, "Don’t worry, nothing will happen. With your husband’s current strength, unless we meet the Great Lord, no one can do anything to me."

"Really?" Zhao Yanyun asked surprised.

"Of course, even before reaching the Divine level, your husband had the qualification to battle with a God-level expert. Now, as long as it’s not the Middle Stage of God, I can fight, and my insight is about to break through to the Heavenly Dao level. Once I break through, my strength will only be stronger," Xu Nian said confidently.

Hearing this, Zhao Yanyun was immediately delighted.

"However, Yanyun, I plan to enter the Chaos Divine Palace for a period of seclusion to break through the Gold Attribute Great Tao to the Heavenly Dao level," Xu Nian said.

"Okay, you can focus on your seclusion. I will protect you," Zhao Yanyun said.

"No need, you also enter the Chaos Divine Palace. This is Divine Origin Liquid. You should first strive to absorb it and quickly advance your cultivation to the mid-stage of the Divine level. As for insight cultivation, you can take it slow," Xu Nian said to Zhao Yanyun.

The Chaos Divine Palace has a time flow ratio of 1:1000.

In this state, Zhao Yanyun can absorb faster.

"Okay!" Zhao Yanyun hesitated for a moment before finally responding.

Then she entered the Chaos Divine Palace, where Xu Nian provided her with a large amount of Divine Origin Liquid for cultivation.

With the amount of Divine Origin Liquid Xu Nian currently possesses, it should be enough for both of them to reach the Peak of Divine level.

So at least in the short term, Xu Nian doesn’t need to worry about cultivation resources.

After arranging everything for Zhao Yanyun, Xu Nian’s Nine Infant Avatar entered the Chaos Divine Palace to consume the Arhat Fruit, preparing to attempt to comprehend the Heavenly Dao.

As for the outside world, Xu Nian summoned the Divine Demon Avatar.

In fact, right now, Xu Nian could completely let the Divine Demon Avatar break through.

However, once he breaks through, it will definitely cause a big commotion.

So it can only be postponed for now.

As for the Wind Attribute, Fire Attribute, and Water Attribute, suitable avatars still need to be found before breaking through is advisable.

Inside the Chaos Divine Palace, Xu Nian consumed the Arhat Fruit, and he immediately entered an incredibly mystical state.

The Great Tao Sound resonated, and the Heavenly Dao Qi enveloped his body.

Xu Nian, like a Golden Arhat, was covered in golden radiance.

Breaking through from the Ninth Level of the Great Tao to the Heavenly Dao is no easy task, requiring endless deductions.

Originally, this process was extremely slow, but with the Arhat Fruit, Xu Nian’s efficiency was naturally greatly enhanced.

Time quickly passed, and ten days had elapsed in the outside world.

Meanwhile, over three years had passed inside the Chaos Divine Palace.

During this period, Xu Nian had consumed three Arhat Fruits.

However, he was still just a bit short of breaking through to the Heavenly Dao level.

"Hmm?"

Just as Xu Nian was preparing to consume the fourth Arhat Fruit for another attempt, his Identity Token lit up, and a message from Li Tie came through.

The content was simple: the battle had begun, instructing them to gather at the city head of North City.

Seeing this, Xu Nian had to give up the idea of continuing cultivation and exit the Chaos Divine Palace.

At the same time, he released Zhao Yanyun as well.

She had obviously also received the message.

So the two of them headed to the city head of North City together.

Many people had already gathered there.

During the few days Xu Nian and Zhao Yanyun were in seclusion, the Vermilion Bird Camp had grown by over a hundred people.

It now numbered nearly two thousand people.

Xu Nian’s gaze quickly landed on four individuals standing on the city head.

These four were dignified and carried an extraordinary presence.

The aura surrounding them was extremely powerful, each movement exuding a fierce killing intent.

One could immediately tell they were people who had experienced countless battles, walking between life and death many times.

The leading man seemed to notice Xu Nian’s gaze and cast a sharp glance at him like a blade.

But it was only a glance before he turned his gaze away.

"Captain, we’re here."

Xu Nian approached Li Tie’s team and immediately greeted him.

"Hmm, it’s good that you’re here. Zhang Gong, explain the situation to him," Li Tie instructed a nearby late-stage Divine-level expert.

"Yes, Captain!" The man named Zhang Gong immediately responded.

Then he said to Xu Nian, "The people attacking us this time are from Wuwan Valley. They have dispatched a total of three thousand people, intending to attack our North Mountain Divine Stone Mine. There are always a thousand people stationed there, and our only goal is to rush over and support them, guard the mine, and repel them."

"North Mountain Divine Stone Mine?" Xu Nian said, somewhat surprised.

He hadn’t expected Black Mountain Domain to have a divine stone mine.

"It’s just a small mine, and it can only produce some Low Grade Divine Stones, but even so, this mine is considered an important resource for our Black Mountain Domain. Wuwan Valley and Ice Snow Mountain have always coveted the North Mountain Mine, and it has always been under the care of our Vermilion Bird Camp," Zhang Gong continued.

Xu Nian instantly understood.

The North Mountain Mine isn’t large, but in the resource-scarce Divine World, having a mine, even the most basic one, is a huge resource.

Black Mountain Domain naturally can’t tolerate any loss of the mine.

So this time, they were heading out to defend the mine.

"Set out!"

At this moment, the Great Commander gave a command.

Then Xu Nian saw nearly two thousand figures leap off the city wall and fly swiftly toward the North Mountain Mine region.

The North City Gate is only over ten thousand kilometers from the North Mountain Mining Area, which isn’t far for Divine-level experts like them.

Of course, Xu Nian and Zhao Yanyun followed along.

The surrounding Divine-level experts who had participated in battles all had a solemn and ready posture, clearly indicating that the battle they were about to face wouldn’t be easy.

Seeing this, Xu Nian felt a faint sense of anticipation in his heart.

A chaotic battle in the Divine World?

He hadn’t expected that right after ascending to the Divine World, he would encounter such a spectacle.
