The Talisman Daoist's destruction of the Moon-Swallowing Demon Cave has angered many high-tier demons, who are now planning to trap him. Meanwhile, Jiang Fan returns to the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall with great spoils, including three hundred thousand Immortal Stones and a fragment of the Immortal Artifact Flag of Equality. He fuses the fragment, enhancing the flag and reducing its cooldown period to ten years, before entering seclusion to cultivate.

A decade passed, and within the Void Realm on the Southern Continent, the concentration of Spiritual Qi had significantly amplified. Though not yet fostering the birth of Integration Cultivators, its potency far surpassed previous levels, making it incomparably stronger. Divinity Transformation Cultivators, once exceedingly rare, now emerged prolifically, akin to bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Even native human Void Refining Cultivators began to appear. Concurrently, ancient cave mansions and ruins surfaced, unleashing a torrent of opportunities. Fortunate individuals who seized these chances ascended rapidly, marking this as a golden era of Cultivation. Such transformations in the Void Realm greatly benefited not only native forces but also the Cultivators from ancient Sects, who also reaped numerous rewards. Lu Fucheng, a Late-stage Void Refining Cultivator from the Divine Weapon Sect, was dispatched as a vanguard to investigate the Void Realm's intelligence. In essence, he served as cannon fodder for the Sect, as the so-called Ten Great Ancient Sects had already deployed a considerable number of Void Refining Cultivators, yet the mortality rate had surged past ninety percent. This grim statistic thoroughly alarmed the Cultivators of the various Ancient Sects. How could such a seemingly weak Great Thousand Worlds boast such a high death rate? Lu Fucheng, lacking status, background, and backing, and having furthermore offended a high-ranking Elder of the Divine Weapon Sect, was assigned this perilous mission. He was not alone; over a dozen other Void Refining Cultivators from the Divine Weapon Sect shared his grim fate, huddling together for mutual support. Boom~~ Inside a Secret Realm World. This was a ruin once left behind by the Divine Weapon Sect in the Void Realm, housing an ancient cross-world Teleportation Array. It was through this array that they transmitted from other worlds into the Void Realm, though each transmission demanded immense energy, rendering it unusable at all times. Presently, more than a dozen Void Refining Cultivators from the Divine Weapon Sect were teleported once more. Some of these individuals were compelled to come, while others volunteered. Regardless of their initial intent, upon arrival, they found themselves in the same precarious situation. Lu Fucheng, as the guide, was responsible for receiving this new contingent of Void Refining Cultivators. This was not his original post; however, with all Cultivators senior to him having perished, he was the sole remaining figure, naturally becoming the Divine Weapon Sect's representative on the Southern Continent. He did not relish this unexpected burden. Yet, as a member of the Divine Weapon Sect, betrayal was unthinkable and unnecessary. Thus, he approached his guiding duties with utmost seriousness. "Welcome, fellow junior brothers, to the Void Realm." Lu Fucheng offered a faint smile, his tone conveying warmth to the assembled fellow disciples. He believed in fostering friendships and avoiding unnecessary enmity, seeing no need for arrogance that could lead to unnecessary conflict. In a foreign world, such behavior was a direct invitation to doom. "Senior Brother Lu, your esteemed name has long been known to us; it is an honor to finally meet you." "Indeed. We have just arrived in the Void Realm and hope Senior Brother Lu can provide us with some information about this world." "By all accounts, the strongest native Cultivators here should only be at the Void Refining level." "Under normal circumstances, it should be exceedingly difficult for them to fell Cultivators of our caliber, regardless of the situation." "Then why has the mortality rate exceeded ninety percent?" Some Divine Weapon Sect Cultivators inquired with genuine concern, as this directly impacted their future operations. The Void Realm appeared deceptively safe, yet it harbored an astonishingly high death rate, a fact they struggled to comprehend, unaware of the hidden dangers. They recognized that Senior Brother Lu, having survived in the Void Realm for over a decade, possessed extraordinary capabilities. None of them wished to meet a foolish end in this place.

"Indeed, if it’s the native Cultivators of the Void Realm, it truly is difficult for them to kill us."

"What’s more, the Cultivation of the local Cultivators is extremely weak; the vast majority are below Divinity Transformation."

"To us, these Low-Tier Cultivators are as weak as ants and not worth mentioning at all."

"In fact, the cause of death for the vast majority of Void Refining Cultivators who come here is greed."

Lu Fucheng said faintly.

At this moment, he recalled those fellow disciples of the Divine Weapon Sect from before.

At the beginning, each one had been high-spirited and incomparably arrogant, feeling that they could do as they pleased here, and even make a huge fortune, but now they had all turned into fertilizer for this world.

And it was not only the Divine Weapon Sect; the Cultivators of the other Sects were the same.

He hoped that the fellow disciples entering the Void Realm this time would not tread the same path.

"Greed? Why is that?"

The many Void Refining Cultivators of the Divine Weapon Sect asked in curiosity.

They had already obtained quite a bit of intelligence about the Void Realm beforehand, but as for what exactly had happened in this world, the details could not be known unless one had personally experienced them.

At present, no one understood what had happened in this world better than Lu Fucheng.

"I believe you all know that the Void Realm contains countless opportunities."

"Because in the Ancient Era, the Cultivation civilization of the Void Realm was incomparably flourishing; even we, these Ten Great powers, all came from the Void Realm, and even obtained Ancient inheritances from the Void Realm."
