Yang Xiaotian cultivated two divine avatars using a nine-billion-year-old divine medicine, but found it insufficient for further advancement. He learns of an even rarer ten-billion-year-old divine medicine that even the Master of the Holy Realm cannot obtain. Meanwhile, the Ancestor Clan vows revenge on Yang Xiaotian and his followers for past grievances. Yang Xiaotian also learns that the Feiyang Emperor, who once aided him, might not be dead and is being pursued by the Hou Clan, prompting him to rush to the Feiyang Emperor's location.

Having successfully rescued the Feiyang Emperor, Yang Xiaotian and the emperor found refuge in a mountain range, where he proceeded to aid the emperor in his recovery from injuries.

Thanks to Yang Xiaotian’s supreme life-saving techniques and the potent Primordial Life Fruit, the Feiyang Emperor’s wounds were fully mended in mere days.

Upon his complete recovery, the Feiyang Emperor chose to depart independently.

He was acutely aware that his own abilities paled in comparison to Yang Xiaotian’s. Lingering by Yang Xiaotian’s side would only serve as a liability, potentially hindering Yang Xiaotian’s acquisition of contribution points.

Recognizing the Feiyang Emperor’s resolute decision to leave, Yang Xiaotian bestowed upon him a generous quantity of Primordial Life Fruits and numerous elixirs he had personally refined.

The sheer value of these crafted elixirs represented an immense fortune.

Yielding to Yang Xiaotian’s earnest insistence, the Feiyang Emperor accepted the Primordial Life Fruits and elixirs, offered a profound bow of gratitude, and then departed by shattering the void.

Following the Feiyang Emperor’s departure, Yang Xiaotian resumed his activities, hunting fierce beasts and gathering the necessary ingredients to concoct the Creation Pill.

An additional few years elapsed.

Yang Xiaotian’s standing within the rankings ascended into the top ten, positioning him at ninth place.

On this particular day, shortly after dispatching a fierce beast, Yang Xiaotian observed a multitude of powerful cultivators moving with great urgency towards a specific direction, their faces alight with palpable excitement.

At that precise moment, a cultivator from a distant Sect zipped past, his expression radiating intense enthusiasm.

Witnessing this spectacle, Yang Xiaotian instinctively halted the individual, inquiring about the reason for the widespread convergence of experts.

Without hesitation, the cultivator responded, “I’ve heard that the King of Divine Medicine has appeared!”

“What!” The exclamation of shock escaped even Yang Xiaotian’s lips.

The King of Divine Medicine on the Eternal Realm Battlefield!

Could this refer to the legendary Hundred-Million-Year Divine Medicine?

As Yang Xiaotian stood in stunned silence, the informant continued his journey without pause.

After a moment of contemplation, Yang Xiaotian too took flight, heading in the same direction.

To think that the King of Divine Medicine would manifest!

This development was unequivocally tremendous news!

If he could acquire the King of Divine Medicine, he might finally possess the means to break through to the Harmonization Third Layer!

Furthermore, with the emergence of the King of Divine Medicine, it was plausible that the Master of the Holy Realm might also make an appearance.

This presented an ideal opportunity to confront and resolve the issue of the Master of the Holy Realm!

Yang Xiaotian activated a Space-Time Instantaneous Movement technique.

Through his continuous use of Space-Time Instantaneous Movement, it wasn’t long before he beheld an unforgettable spectacle.

Sprawled across the plain ahead, tens of thousands of formidable cultivators were frantically pursuing a single, vibrant green, sky-hued ginseng!

This extraordinary ginseng, under the relentless pursuit of countless powerful individuals, continually employed Space-Time Instantaneous Movement, its playful giggles echoing as if deliberately taunting the experts without truly attempting to evade them.

“Chase me, chase me!” the ginseng chuckled.

The Green Sky Ginseng!

The King of Ginseng!

Up to this point, only a single Green Sky Ginseng had ever appeared across all the heavens and realms, and it was the very one before them.

This Green Sky Ginseng King was indeed the King of Divine Medicine on the Eternal Realm Battlefield!

The Green Sky Ginseng King emanated an intoxicatingly enchanting medicinal fragrance.

Even from outside the plain, Yang Xiaotian found himself entranced by its alluring scent.

At this precise juncture, the same expert who had informed Yang Xiaotian of the King of Divine Medicine's appearance also arrived. Upon noticing Yang Xiaotian, he was momentarily taken aback.

He had set out considerably earlier than Yang Xiaotian, who had barely moved initially, yet surprisingly, Yang Xiaotian had reached the scene before him.

He cast his gaze upon the Green Sky Ginseng King and involuntarily swallowed hard.

A Hundred-Million-Year Green Sky Ginseng King—who wouldn't be enticed by such a treasure?

However, just as he was contemplating joining the pursuit of the Green Sky Ginseng King, a boisterous, arrogant, and wild laughter erupted from a distant vantage point.

Instantly, a crimson sea materialized on the horizon.

The Blood Sea surged, unleashing terrifying and chilling wails that instilled widespread panic, causing the Divine Souls of all present to tremble.

Éxperiencing the horrifying, boundless Blood Sea, the Sect expert’s countenance was etched with dread: “Blood Ancestor!”

The newly arrived entity was none other than the notorious Blood Ancestor!

The multitude of experts who had been pursuing the Green Sky Ginseng King, upon witnessing the arrival of the Blood Ancestor, were also overcome with fear. Many ceased their pursuit and rapidly retreated to a considerable distance, abandoning all interest in the Green Sky Ginseng King.

After all, the Blood Ancestor’s infamous reputation was immense, and his temper notoriously unpredictable; should he find someone displeasing, regardless of their status, he would mercilessly drag them into the Blood Sea, making them sustenance for its depths.

They certainly had no desire to become fodder for the Blood Sea.

Nevertheless, a select few cultivators, confident in their own strength and bolstered by the backing of their respective factions, persisted in their pursuit of the Green Sky Ginseng King.

Among those who continued to chase the Green Sky Ginseng King were three prominent figures: World Academy's esteemed ancestors—Cheng Zhan, Liao Yuan, and Li Quan.

A deep-seated resentment had always festered within the trio toward Yang Xiaotian; at one point, they had even proposed revoking his esteemed title as the Son of the World within the hallowed halls of World Academy.

Confident in the formidable backing of World Academy, they held the Blood Ancestor in comparatively low regard.

Before long, the Blood Ancestor materialized in the skies above the plain, and upon his initial glimpse of the Green Sky Ginseng King, his eyes ignited with an intense fervor. His form blurred, fragmenting into countless blood-red phantoms that surged forth, attempting to ensnare the Green Sky Ginseng King in a pincer-like embrace. Simultaneously, he bellowed towards Cheng Zhan, Liao Yuan, and Li Quan, declaring, “The Green Sky Ginseng King is mine!”

“Get out of my way!”

Other cultivators, cowed by the sheer might radiating from the Blood Ancestor, wisely retreated from the unfolding scene.

Nevertheless, Cheng Zhan, Liao Yuan, and Li Quan remained undeterred, resolutely continuing their pursuit of the Green Sky Ginseng King.

However, with a sudden spatial distortion, a blink-and-you'll-miss-it movement, the Green Sky Ginseng King effortlessly evaded both the Blood Ancestor’s myriad blood images and the grasp of the defiant trio.

Failing to secure the Green Sky Ginseng King, the Blood Ancestor’s fury reached a boiling point. Witnessing Cheng Zhan, Liao Yuan, and Li Quan blatantly disregard his territorial claim and persist in their chase, his killing intent flared with terrifying intensity.

“Despicable curs, perish!” With a vicious sweep of his arms, the Blood Ancestor summoned a colossal Blood Sea, its boundless expanse churning as it descended upon Cheng Zhan, Liao Yuan, and Li Quan with crushing force.

As the monstrous Blood Sea loomed, threatening to engulf them, the faces of Cheng Zhan, Liao Yuan, and Li Quan contorted with abject terror.

“We are esteemed ancestors of World Academy!” Cheng Zhan cried out in desperate urgency.

Yet, the Blood Ancestor showed no signs of relenting; instead, he amplified his assault.

The Blood Sea roared, unleashing spectral shrieks as an army of Blood Demons erupted forth, ravenously lunging to tear into the three individuals.

Gripped by panic, Cheng Zhan and his companions hastily erected their defensive shields and scrambled to escape.

Despite the considerable resilience of their protective barriers, the three were nonetheless violently hurled backward by the onslaught of the Blood Sea.

Suffering grievous injuries, the trio skidded to a halt, blood gushing from their mouths.

At this critical juncture, the Green Sky Ginseng King executed another instantaneous spatial shift, preparing to depart from the plains.

Observing the Green Sky Ginseng King on the verge of escaping the area, the Blood Ancestor momentarily abandoned his pursuit of the injured trio and gave chase to the elusive ginseng.

A collective sigh of relief escaped Cheng Zhan, Liao Yuan, and Li Quan as they noticed the Blood Ancestor ceasing his pursuit.

However, just as the Blood Ancestor was poised to resume his hunt for the Green Sky Ginseng King, he abruptly froze, his expression shifting to one of startled disbelief, as if confronted by an unimaginable horror.

A wave of confusion rippled through the onlookers, who followed the Blood Ancestor's stunned gaze. To their collective astonishment, they beheld a solitary figure, clad in azure robes, hovering inexplicably in the mid-air ahead!

And, crucially, the Green Sky Ginseng King was now hurtling directly towards this mysterious blue-robed individual.

The expert who had initially alerted Yang Xiaotian to the Divine Medicine King’s appearance, now standing a short distance away from Yang Xiaotian himself, watched as the Blood Ancestor prepared to surge forward. He had been nearly petrified by fear, but then he observed the Blood Ancestor’s sudden, fearful halt, his terror-stricken gaze fixed in their general direction.

What could possibly be happening?

The very atmosphere seemed to thicken, growing heavy and still.

Reaching Yang Xiaotian, the Green Sky Ginseng King promptly concealed itself behind him, then proceeded to make a series of impish faces towards the Blood Ancestor, its voice clearly heard taunting, “Old man, catch me if you can, come and catch me if you dare!”

Observing the Green Sky Ginseng King, now peeking out from behind him while making such playful gestures, Yang Xiaotian found himself utterly bewildered. This legendary King of Divine Medicine appeared to possess the demeanor of a mere mischievous child?

Was it entirely unconcerned about the possibility of him deciding to capture it instead?
