Xu Zimei unleashed his full power, overwhelming Thousand Calamities Doomsday with his ultimate attack. Despite Thousand Calamities Doomsday's desperate measures, he was ultimately defeated and conceded. Xu Zimei then departed for Yao Pond, intending to seek out Thousand Calamities Doomsday again if needed. Afterward, Xu Zimei located Zhong Shanshen and his sibling, who had been hiding with Feng Jiu and others during the battle.

"S-Senior, is the battle over?" Zhong Shanshen asked cautiously.

Xu Zimei nodded slightly.

Zhong Shanshen didn't dare ask who won or lost, but he couldn't help letting out a breath of relief inside.

After all, the momentum of that battle just now had been too terrifying.

Ending it as soon as possible was better than anything.

In that battle just now, who knew how many of the Monster Race had died in it.

Feng Jiu had originally planned to take advantage of the vacuum period after Ba Tian's death to reestablish her rule here as soon as possible.

But looking at it now, that was probably not going to be easy either.

"Senior, was that person just now the Dominator of the Ghost God Realm?" Elder Jin braced himself and asked.

"Yes," Xu Zimei replied.

That single word set off Shocking Waves in Elder Jin's heart, it could be said.

After all, what kind of strength a single-domain Dominator possessed—though they couldn't know the specifics, they could at least imagine it.

And now it seemed that, facing a Dominator of a whole domain, Xu Zimei still had such a great chance of winning.

Then what exactly was Xu Zimei's identity, what kind of strength did he himself possess?

Elder Jin couldn't help falling into deep thought.

"Right, I want to ask you something," Xu Zimei said.

"Senior, please ask whatever you wish," Elder Jin replied hurriedly.

"During this period, have you seen any meteors streak across the sky?" Xu Zimei asked.

"Meteorites?" Everyone looked at one another and all shook their heads.

This meteorite was very likely related to the True Martial Great Emperor.

Back when the True Martial Great Emperor failed in his Heaven Challenge, Xu Zimei had been in the Ghost God Realm and had seen a meteor streak across the Firmament.

It was just that he couldn't be sure where exactly it had gone.

Seeing everyone shake their heads, Xu Zimei guessed that the meteorite might not be in the Cangxuan Realm either.

Then he could only continue upward, to take a look at the Kun Ruins Domain and the Robbery Immortal Domain.

That meteorite was extremely important to him.

There was a great possibility that it contained information left behind by the True Martial Great Emperor.

Right after that, Xu Zimei flicked his right hand.

"Let's go!"

He took the Zhong Shanshen siblings and stepped across the void.

Watching the figures of the few of them leaving, Feng Jiu finally let out a sigh of relief.

Once her entire body relaxed, she almost couldn't hold on and nearly collapsed to the ground.

"Your Highness, are you all right?"

The Monster Race member beside her supported her worriedly and asked.

"It's nothing, deal with the mess in front of us first,"

Feng Jiu shook her head slightly.

Mainly, things had risen and fallen too quickly in this period, leaving her unable to accept it all at once.

Originally, after the decline of the Monster Fire Phoenix Clan, she had to constantly resist the Monster Race led by the Tyrannosaur Clan.

Later, when the Tyrannosaur Clan was wiped out by Xu Zimei, she had felt she had hope of turning the tables.

Now, Phoenix Imprisoning Phoenix had been destroyed in a great battle, and countless Monster Race were caught up and killed.

Even if they wanted to once more rule over the Monster Race, they probably had the will but not the strength.

In truth, this was also something Xu Zimei had done intentionally.

Although Feng Jiu and the others were polite to Xu Zimei during this period, that was only because they lacked the strength and had no other choice.

But no one could forget that Xu Zimei was the great enemy of the Monster Race.

The Monster Race had once been the rulers of the Cangxuan Realm, especially the clans led by the Sixteen Monster Race.

The fact that they had fallen to their current state was entirely thanks to Xu Zimei.

So if, in the future, they should ever gain the upper hand again, they would definitely not forget this hatred.

Although, as he was now, Xu Zimei didn't fear whether the Monster Race united or fractured in the least.

Still, you always left yourself a margin when doing things.

So a Monster Race that was torn into pieces was exactly what Xu Zimei wanted to see.

...…

Yao Pond,

stood independently outside the Cangxuan Realm.

Even when the Monster Race was at its absolute peak, Yao Pond had managed to keep to itself.

The Queen of the West ruled over the vast Yao Pond.

Located along the full range of Mount Kunlun, the name of Yao Pond was celebrated throughout the entire Cangxuan Realm.

Especially since the decline of the Monster Race, Yao Pond's might had become even more imposing, and no force dared disturb or oppose them.

The Kunlun Mountain lineage.

This place had already become incomparably prosperous and bustling.

Apart from the Monster Race, nearly all the other races had gathered here.

Even if they couldn't enter Yao Pond, many people had begun to settle in the vicinity of the Kunlun mountain range.

This had led to the foot of the Kunlun range becoming incomparably prosperous and lively. Tens of thousands of people lived here, forming a vast market and settlement.

When Xu Zimei brought the Zhong Shanshen siblings to the foot of Mount Kunlun, even he was somewhat shocked by the prosperity before his eyes.

The last time he had come to Yao Pond, the area beneath Mount Kunlun had still been sparsely populated.

Now it was already full of worldly smoke and fire.

But a little thought made it easy to understand.

At present, Yao Pond was the safest place in the entire Cangxuan Realm.

The Monster Race was in chaos; if you weren't careful, you could be dragged into it.

And unlike the Monster Race, although Yao Pond's strength was great, they did not concern themselves with acting as overlords.

They had no intention of ruling the Cangxuan Realm.

That was why so many people's first choice was to seek refuge with Yao Pond.

...…

"So this is Yao Pond," the Zhong Shanshen siblings said in amazement as they looked around.

They very much had the air of Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden.

After all, the two of them had always lived within the Tianqi Family. The clan hid from the world and never went out; it was hard for them to imagine what the outside world had become.

So after coming here, everything they saw felt fresh and new to them.

"Not exactly, this is only the foot of Mount Kunlun where Yao Pond is located," Xu Zimei replied.

"The real Yao Pond has more Immortal Qi and less of this mundane smoke and fire."

"Can we go straight in?" Zhong Shanshen asked.

Just as Zhong Shanshen was asking, a commotion suddenly rose not far away.

They only heard someone shout, "The quota for recruiting Disciples for Yao Pond has started, everyone hurry and go take a look!"

"What are the requirements this time?"

someone asked.

"I don't know. Yao Pond has always recruited as they please. I've been waiting here for over ten years and only now encountered a round."

Hearing these people's heated discussion.

Xu Zimei smiled and said, "Let's go take a look. Maybe we'll even run into an old acquaintance."

At the center of this marketplace, there was a place called Azure Dragon Square.

The square was huge; it could hold tens of thousands of people standing here.

And this time, Yao Pond's recruitment of new Disciples was being held right here.

You had to know that ever since the last great war with the Monster Race, even though Yao Pond had been the victor, they themselves had suffered heavy losses.

They were in urgent need of fresh blood.

Even so, however, Yao Pond's requirements and standards for recruiting new Disciples remained extremely high.

Especially the Disciples' character, which was of paramount importance.

When Xu Zimei arrived at Azure Dragon Square, he found it was already a sea of people.

It could only be said that arriving early was not as good as arriving at the right time.

"Friend, are you here to take the assessment?"

A fat man suddenly appeared in front of Xu Zimei's group of three.

He asked with a beaming smile.

"Why?" Xu Zimei asked.

"The assessment time is limited; it's impossible for everyone to get a chance to participate. Once you miss it, you might find it hard to enter Yao Pond for the rest of your life."

The fat man said with a grin.

"I know someone who's queuing at the front.

If you need it, I can get you to cut in line."

Hearing the fat man's words, Xu Zimei smiled with interest.

He hadn't expected these people to actually turn this into a business opportunity.
