Li Chen decides to travel with Xiao Chihan and Cang Ku, leaving Konggu Venerable behind. He corrects some of Xiao Chihan's cultivation mistakes and bestows upon him three sealed swords of varying power, warning him about the most dangerous one. After leaving the chaotic External Edge Sea World, Li Chen sets up a self-destructing teleportation array to reach the Star Land of Heavenly Might. Meanwhile, Venerable Lann Luo arrives at the Sea Edge Realm, enraged by the death of his descendant and vowing brutal revenge.

Venerable Lann Luo’s strength is not weak at all.

In a certain era, Venerable Lann Luo once dominated his peers, and even if he fought with strong individuals at the same level, he rarely faced defeat.

It was precisely because of this immense power that he triumphed all the way and reached the realm of Venerable.

Several hundred years ago, he went into seclusion once more, a seclusion that wasn’t completely broken until a century ago.

However, after emerging from seclusion, he consistently stabilized his realm and never behaved as arrogantly to challenge others as he did in the past.

Because he thought that since he was already a top-level powerhouse, he should maintain the dignity of such a powerhouse; constantly getting into fights, what did that look like?

Afterwards, his descendants took over the Heaven Sea Alliance he founded, and since then, he began his hermit-like seclusion.

Until not long ago, he learned that his descendants were killed by a mysterious individual, causing him to burst out of seclusion in anger.

Venerable Lann Luo’s strength is not weak, nor is his intellect.

Back then, he was extremely aggressive, ready to fight to the death at the slightest disagreement. But at the same time, he was smart and would only fight to the death against opponents he was confident in defeating.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have survived until now.

Seeing several individuals emerge from the Sea Edge Realm, Venerable Lann Luo’s mind immediately started turning.

The Sea Edge Realm is a place that others might not understand, but he knows perfectly well. Because many years ago, he personally entered the Sea Edge Realm.

For most people, the Sea Edge Realm is a place where one can enter but cannot exit.

Even for him, entering and exiting took a tremendous cost.

And now, facing these individuals who suddenly appeared, being able to come out from the Sea Edge Realm, there are only two major possibilities.

First, among them is a strong individual who understands formations, whose mastery of the Formation Path is powerful enough to directly teleport from the Sea Edge Realm.

Second, they possess a powerful treasure that allows for traveling back and forth from the Sea Edge Realm.

Regardless of which of these possibilities, either point can make Venerable Lann Luo’s heart skip a beat.

A formation path expert signifies that his Heaven Sea Alliance would gain an additional layer of solid protection, potentially making it unbreakable.

And as for the second possibility, it goes without saying.

Looking at the few individuals, a flash of greed gradually passed through Venerable Lann Luo’s eyes.

"Out already?" A young man opened his mouth, surveying the surrounding scenery: "Out here is better, the scenery, the air, everything is on a different level!"

Beside the young man, an old man glanced at him: "As long as you’re happy."

"Gentlemen," at this time, Venerable Lann Luo rarely squeezed out a smile, stepped through the void towards them, bowed slightly, ready to speak, but was interrupted by the young man who first spoke after emerging from the Sea Edge Realm.

"Alright, alright, don’t bring your disgusting old face over here, just say what you have to, we’re very busy!" The young man said in a serious tone.

"I..." Venerable Lann Luo was somewhat dumbfounded, not knowing how to continue. Following immediately was a rush of roaring anger.

How many years had it been since anyone dared to speak to him like this?

Yet now, there was a person almost pointing right at his nose and insulting him.

What do you mean by disgusting old face? Can’t they understand a friendly smile?

"Are you sure you’re talking to me?" Venerable Lann Luo laughed sarcastically and looked at the young man.

"Are you going on forever?" The young man marveling at the nice weather suddenly turned his head to look at Venerable Lann Luo: "Do you think I have a good temper, so you keep pestering?"

At being stared at by the young man in that instant, an overwhelming sense of dread emerged in Venerable Lann Luo’s heart, as if he were a chick caught in the gaze of an ancient beast, strong fear filled his heart instantly.

In that instant, Venerable Lann Luo started stammering: "I... I wasn’t... didn’t..."

"Get out!!"

The young man slapped Venerable Lann Luo’s body directly, the slap like heavens’ canopy, shattering half of Venerable Lann Luo’s body, and sending him flying far into the starry sky, his life or death unknown.

At this moment, the old man beside the young man couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh: "He was still a Ninth-Order Heavenly Venerate; you should have held back a little."

"I did hold back, okay?" Cain said righteously: "Who knew the Ninth Order of this era was so weak, if I had exerted more effort, this guy would have been dead. This guy compared to that young fellow named Li Chen is far inferior."

The transformed Blood Ox could only shake his head silently, and the other strong individuals who once defended the tower layer were also wordless.

If the Starry Universe were filled with demons like Li Chen, why would they fear the invasion by Era-Ancient Civilization?

They hadn’t seen Li Chen blocking Cain’s Palm Realm strike. But the scene where Li Chen, with Soul Realm strength, obliterated a strong individual who had stepped into the threshold of True Realm, was vivid to Blood Ox. Moreover, through Blood Ox, other tower layer guardians knew about this.

To this, they had only one evaluation: Monster!

"Alright, enough with the pointless talk, the cosmos is so vast, I want to go see it, let’s go!" The young man’s expression returned to that playful smile, disappearing with the group above Heartless Sea.

As for the hint of sorrow deep in his eyes, he concealed it well.

Except for the Blood Ox, no one noticed it.

And the group that was originally surrounding Venerable Lann Luo dispersed in a panic shortly after seeing the youth and the others leave.

Damn it, how terrifying must a powerhouse be to almost kill Venerable Lann Luo with a single slap?

They didn’t even dare to imagine; the only thought in their minds now was to quickly escape this place of trouble.

Cain indeed showed mercy.

If he hadn’t held back, he could have turned Venerable Lann Luo to ashes with just one slap, rather than blasting him so far away.

It should be noted that during the era of the Seven Realms, he was also a notorious vicious character, having participated in the Blood Clan hunts, and drank the blood of countless powerful beings. Back then, he was already in the Heaven and Earth Realm, known as an Ancient Ancestor.

If it weren’t for the Dao Saint intervening at the time, hardly anyone could have stopped him.

He once slaughtered until the heavens darkened, and countless powerhouses died tragically beneath his fangs.

If the Blood Saint hadn’t personally intervened to imprison him, he might have caused even greater disasters back then, though ultimately he wouldn’t have escaped being slain by top-level powerhouses.

After spending countless years in the Ancient Tower, his temperament had become much milder, which is why he spared Venerable Lann Luo. Otherwise, with his temper in those days, he would have slapped such a figure to death long ago.

"Damn, damn!!" In the void, after confirming the youth and the others had indeed left, Venerable Lann Luo returned in a sorry state, roaring furiously towards the sky.

"Who exactly, who exactly is such a terrifying powerhouse?! What is his cultivation? True Realm? Palm Realm?" Venerable Lann Luo was filled with rage and fear.

"All because of you, that little beast who killed my offspring!" Venerable Lann Luo’s heart was full of resentment. He didn’t dare to be angry at powerhouses of that level, nor did he dare to harbor any thoughts of revenge, he merely shifted his fury to the person who killed his offspring.

In his view, all of this was caused by that person.

If it weren’t for that person, his offspring wouldn’t have died, and he wouldn’t have come to this place for revenge, nor would he have encountered that terrifying powerhouse.

All of this was caused by that person.

He must die!

After swallowing several pills, Venerable Lann Luo’s face turned somewhat pale as he repaired his half-destroyed, remaining body.

Repairing a damaged body might be extremely difficult for low-rank cultivators, but for powerhouses of their level, it’s a matter of seconds.

Of course, he didn’t have the terrifying peak physical cultivation of an Indestructible Body; one recovery not only required a large consumption of precious pills, but also drained considerable essence, leaving him greatly weakened.

Although there was not much loss in cultivation, the consumption of essence required a long time to replenish.

Glancing around, Venerable Lann Luo’s face darkened, as even those few small lackeys had fled.

"When I catch you all, I will make you ants wish you were dead!" Venerable Lann Luo gritted through his teeth.

Taking one last look at the entrance to the Sea Edge Realm, Venerable Lann Luo, originally planning to explore inside, felt somewhat anxious and decided to return to recuperate first, before entering when better prepared.

As long as no one as terrifying as that youth appears from the Sea Edge Realm again.

However, just as Venerable Lann Luo was about to leave, lights flickered once more at the entrance to the Sea Edge Realm.

"Hm?" Witnessing this scene, Venerable Lann Luo shuddered, instinctively wanting to retreat.

The terrifying youth from earlier had indeed frightened him somewhat.

Soon after, within Venerable Lann Luo’s view, a group of four emerged from the entrance.

"Oh, isn’t that Lann Luo?" Among the group, a slightly gaunt man greeted from a distance.

"You are... Konggu? Didn’t you disappear for a millennium? Have you been in the Sea Edge Realm all these years?" Venerable Lann Luo exclaimed in shock.

"Congratulations, you guessed right, but unfortunately, no prizes!" Konggu Venerable replied with a chuckle.

Venerable Lann Luo’s gaze turned cold.

The next moment, he saw the black-clad youth among the group and his eyes narrowed instantly.

"It’s you?!"

He had used the formations in Yantian City to trace back, and the images showed two figures appearing above Yantian City, one of whom was Li Chen.

And the other was his offspring whose soul jade had shattered.

Who killed him, he didn’t even need to guess.

"Do you know me?" Feeling the almost undisguised killing intent from Venerable Lann Luo, Li Chen couldn’t help but express his surprise.

"You killed my progeny; do you think I know you?!" Venerable Lann Luo growled.

Li Chen shrugged: "Sorry, I’ve killed a lot of people; who are you, and who is your offspring? How did they die? I don’t take on blame randomly."
