Chen Nan and his allies arrive at the Outer Domain Battlefield. The Demon Path Supreme reveals that Chen Nan's master and other powerful figures who stayed behind to hold off the Heavenly People Clan have likely sacrificed their strength to activate a powerful ancient formation, leaving them as Divine Statues. The Ghost Lord attempts to console Chen Nan, suggesting there might be a way to restore them.

The Outer Domain Battlefield presented a stark contrast to the Panlong Star Domain; the celestial bodies in this region had completely broken away from the Four Extremes World. It existed as a realm beyond the Four Extremes World, whereas the Panlong Star Domain was merely a fraction within the Mortal World's celestial expanse.

This was an even more immense domain, so vast that even the divine sense of a Supreme Expert could not probe its extremities. Its boundless reach spanned an unquantifiable billions of light-years.

Xuan Tianji and his allies stood guard at the passage to the Mortal World, locked in a monumental conflict with the Heavenly People Clan. Faced with a dire predicament, they poured all their power into activating the Primordial Luotian Formation, a relic of the Primordial Heavenly Emperor, at the cost of their very essence.

Chen Nan gazed upon the familiar divine statues – his master, the No-Moral Taoist, the Monk of Abstinence, the Vermilion Bird Divine Girl, the two Demon Clan elders, and the Space King. These once-vivid visages had all been transformed into stoic statues.

In the subsequent moment, the Five Elements Heavenly Technique manifested as a Five Elements Wheel within Chen Nan’s eyes, erupting with a blinding brilliance. A Five Elements Seal then shot forth from his gaze, cleaving through the very void.

As this Five Elements Seal materialized, the divine statue of the No-Moral Taoist, positioned closest to Chen Nan, began to shimmer from its head to its toes.

The instant this ethereal shimmer concluded, a divine thought emanated from the No-Moral Taoist, conveying, "This feeling of powerlessness and descent into slumber is suffocating me. Demon Path Supreme, Dragon Emperor... you have finally arrived."

"You old turtle, Ghost Sovereign! We'd invited you before, but you refused. Yet, with just a word from your senior, you fled faster than anyone!" Even as a stone statue, the No-Moral Taoist miraculously regained a sliver of power, dispatching a divine thought to berate the Ghost Sovereign.

"Foolish Taoist, conserve your strength. The Five Elements Power within Chen Nan is merely at the First Rank, offering you little energy. Focus on what truly matters," the Demon Path Supreme chuckled, addressing the No-Moral Taoist.

The Demon Path Supreme immediately grasped that it was the surge from Chen Nan’s Five Elements Wheel and the potency of the Five Elements Seal that had enabled the No-Moral Taoist to briefly manifest a divine thought.

"What is the current standing of the Heavenly People Clan? Are there any formidable adversaries we must be wary of?" The Demon Path Supreme posed this vital question directly—it is said that knowing oneself and one's enemy guarantees victory.

During the ancient conflict, the Human Clan had suffered grievous losses, and the Heavenly People Clan had likewise endured severe attrition. Consequently, the powers within the Mortal World might reawaken, and similarly, the might of the Heavenly People Clan could return.

In any confrontation between powerful entities, even the smallest misstep can lead to catastrophic outcomes. Within the Secret Realm, Heart Demon was initially no match for the divine soul of Young Master Mo Qing. However, by exploiting the moment Young Master Mo Qing was fully occupied suppressing the Ancient Divine Worm and the Abyss Divine Tree, Heart Demon seized an opportunity to strike successfully.

Hence, when engaging the Heavenly People Clan this time, being aware of their formidable figures becomes paramount, underscoring the Demon Path Supreme's inquiry.

"Xuan Tianji and the Space King, these two anomalies – can they truly withstand the onslaught of the Heavenly People Clan? Isn't that question utterly self-evident?"

The No-Moral Taoist sounded quite vexed; while their individual strengths were not insignificant, the Heavenly People Clan, a veritable swarm of 'birdmen,' possessed overwhelming numbers, granting them a superior collective might.

"Had we not invoked the great formation established by the Primordial Heavenly Emperor at that critical juncture, we might have met our end. These birdmen are incredibly numerous and specialized in formation assaults. Exercise extreme caution when the time arrives."

Upon concluding his statement, the No-Moral Taoist lapsed into absolute silence.

Not a flicker of spiritual energy could be detected, signaling the complete depletion of the minuscule power he had momentarily accessed.

"Master! You old fool!"

Chen Nan raised his hand, directing a seal towards Xuan Tianji's divine statue, attempting to rouse him. Yet, the power dispersed like a stone cast into the ocean, leaving Xuan Tianji's statue utterly unmoved.

"Chen Nan, cease your futile efforts. Your master's power is far too immense. With your current Chaos Sacred Body only at the First Rank, your strength is woefully insufficient to awaken him," the Demon Path Supreme stated, shaking his head.

"These old stalwarts will not perish, especially with the Defensive Array your ancestor established safeguarding them. There is no need for undue concern. Our primary objective now is to vanquish the Heavenly People Clan. Should we manage to claim the power from those formidable figures, they might just recover."

Supreme Demon Path gazed at Chen Nan. "Kid, you're cunning. The Heavenly People Clan comes in great numbers this time; do you have any clever plans to share with us elders?"

The Heart Demon had previously resided within Chen Nan, and had witnessed countless battles where Chen Nan's prowess, strategic thinking, and triumphs against formidable odds were made evident.

Chen Nan chuckled. "Seniors, there's no need to prod me; I've already devised a strategy. These 'birdmen' are numerous and possess a natural advantage in cultivation, even surpassing our Human Clan. However, we possess a 'turtle shell' – we can first wear them down before proceeding step by step!"

"Well said, Chen Nan, to refer to the Primordial Luotian Formation left by your ancestor as a mere 'turtle shell'!" the Nine Netherworld Evil Emperor guffawed. "Elaborate further!"

"I can serve as bait, luring the Heavenly People Clan towards the areas just outside the Defensive Array. They are undoubtedly planning to breach our formation, with their most powerful experts likely positioned at the rear."

"We can draw some of their formidable figures out to engage them directly. If we attract weaker opponents, we can handle them ourselves; should stronger ones appear, then I shall trouble the seniors to intervene. These birdmen remain unaware of your presence."

Chen Nan's gaze swept across the surroundings. "Consequently, the Heavenly People Clan's mobilized forces will be compelled to advance in waves. They will be in a reactive stance, while we, on the other hand, can adapt to the unfolding situation. By the time Supreme Demon Path and the Dragon Emperor make their move, the Heavenly People Clan's forces will be largely depleted."

"This is an excellent concept, but what if these damned Heavenly People Clan deviate from our expectations?" the Nine Netherworld Evil Emperor pondered, recognizing that while strategy is paramount in the face of overwhelming power, numerous variables remain.

"Naturally, every strategy has its potential flaws, which is why we are preparing for both possibilities. The seniors could enhance your respective strengths during this period to serve as our backup, while we endeavor to stir up as much chaos as possible."

Chen Nan appeared completely at ease.

Having previously faced the brink of life and death, he had long since seen through the nature of uncertainty, choosing to act as he saw fit, defying even Heaven, as the Heavenly Dao could not bind him.

"Chen Nan, your approach is sound, but remaining confined here will eventually drive us mad. Nevertheless, owing to the Primordial Heavenly Emperor's prohibition, those powerful birdmen likely remain unaware of our presence in the Outer Domain Battlefield," Supreme Demon Path conceded, a hint of frustration in his tone.

He had managed to seize a portion of Mo Qing Young Master's Netherworld Demon Technique, and even this limited success boasted renowned fame throughout the Haotian Realm, instilling fear in its ruler, which attested to its formidable capabilities.

Supreme Demon Path had initially harbored hopes of seizing the opportunity to test his skills within the Outer Domain Battlefield.

"Seniors, please endure this short period. Engage in conversation or share reminiscences, while I take the Haotian Tower to quickly assess the situation."

With his statement made, Chen Nan took his leave of everyone, preparing to traverse the vast expanse of the Primordial Luotian Formation to scout the exterior regions with the Haotian Tower.

However, at that precise moment, a voice emanated from within the Haotian Tower: "Ou Yifei has awakened!"
