708 The Might of the Comical Sky

On a vast, green plateau, a beautiful woman with pink hair stood alone.

Liu Qianhuan looked up at the comical faces in the sky before abruptly slamming the heel of her palm against her forehead.

"What the hell? Have all the mobile phone games I've been playing finally caused me to hallucinate?"

"No! This is definitely some sort of blatant provocation!"

"Eat this, Final Spark!"

Liu Qianhuan's six-feathered staff flew through the air, and vital energy surged violently as a bolt of scorching white energy flew toward one of the comical faces in the sky.

Boom!

The face exploded.

However, there were still countless more faces hanging in the sky, all of which were looking down at her with taunting sneers.

"Ahhhhhh… this is gonna make me go crazy!"

She felt like she had gone mad. That was the only plausible explanation behind the hallucinations she was seeing, and these were most definitely illusions as there was no way the real world could be so absurd!

Meanwhile, on the crimson plains in the south.

Su Wenjun made his way across the scorching earth as he launched a palm through the air, instantly pulverizing a flying lizard dragon to dust.

He looked up at the comical faces in the sky before muttering to himself with a solemn expression, "The faces in the sky above must contain some sort of information. What an indescribable unsettling expression though. Just looking at it makes me feel uneasy…"

In the mountain ranges of the east, a black-robed man stepped through the air with black mist underfoot. With each step he took, he covered a distance of a few hundred meters. This was the sect leader of the Life Harvesting Sect, Duan Hunzi.

"Ah… Is that the mighty portrait of the Death God? I can't help but tremble when I look up at the faces in the sky!" Duan Hunzi panted heavily as his teeth chattered. "The twisted face, the half-moon crescent eyes, the pupils peering toward the left, the unnatural curvature of the smile… The corners of the lips curve all the way up to the cheeks, but there are no signs of the tissue ripping apart! It's so peculiar, yet so natural… This is terrifying and magnificent at the same time!

"This is an extremely blissful and elated state! This smile… It is the smile of the Death God! Hahaha…" Duan Hunzi became more and more excited as he spoke, and he felt like he was attaining enlightenment in his dao of dead souls just by looking up at the sky. "The icon of my Life Harvesting Sect is going to be this smile of the Death God from now on! Hahaha…"

In a forest elsewhere, Su Qianyun was given quite a fright by those comical faces.

She couldn't shake the feeling that she had seen faces like those in the past, but she couldn't pinpoint when or where she had seen them.

This was a frightening aspect to her. Those faces were like the faces that appeared in her nightmares; the ones that looked at her with mysterious smiles.

Just as she was walking along with her heart in her throat, she encountered a group of people.

There were five people in the group, and they all wore the same uniform, so it was safe to assume that they were all from the same sect.

Su Qianyun and the five of them all faltered upon seeing one another.

"Don't come any closer! We're from the Heaven and Earth Extreme Sect!" A tall man immediately pulled out his longsword as he stared at Su Qianyun with a pair of nervous eyes.

It was impossible not to be scared; the Green Wood Imperial Family and the Four Nine Immortal Sect were simply far too impactful.

Not only was Su Qianyun an extremely important member of the Green Wood Imperial Family, but she was also a core member of the Four Nine Immortal Sect, so she was not someone they could mess with.

Su Qianyun was slightly taken aback upon hearing this name. The name of their sect was quite a bold one, but they were actually just a second-rate sect in the Purple Star State. Who would have thought that she would encounter them here?

She was just about to speak when the man at the forefront of their group said, "Meng Yang, there's no need to be scared. Don't forget that she's the only person here in this peculiar space!"

A sinister smile appeared on the man's face as he spoke, and his scorching gaze traveled over Su Qianyun's body.

The tall man faltered slightly upon hearing this before coming to a sudden realization. "Sect Leader, are you saying…"

The man at the forefront clapped his hands together. "That's right! We have three Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivators, one Soul Formation Initial Stage cultivator, and a Soul Formation Intermediate Stage cultivator. We'll be able to take care of a Half-Step Soul Formation Stage cultivator like her easily! Don't forget that imperial princesses carry lots of treasures with them. Furthermore, this princess is quite the beauty…"

The other four cultivators immediately became excited upon hearing this, and they pulled out their weapons as they stared at the ridiculously beautiful woman they had stumbled upon with scorching eyes.

Su Qianyun: "…"

She was planning to have a chat with them, but it looked like there wasn't much to say now.

The five Heaven and Earth Extreme Sect cultivators unleashed powerful auras as they closed in on Su Qianyun.

It was also at this moment that a bright blue Moonlight Disc suddenly flew through the air silently, like the scythe of a Death God.

In the next instant, all five of the Heaven and Earth Extreme Sect cultivators were rooted to the spot as they stared at Su Qianyun with expressions of incredulity on their faces.

"H-how could this be? You're only half, half-step…"

Splat!

Five fountains of blood shot forth as all five cultivators were sliced cleanly in half.

The Moonlight Disc flew around Su Qianyun like a spritely, blue fairy.

Su Qianyun shook her head lightly before departing.

One Soul Formation Initial Stage and one Soul Formation Intermediate Stage?

She could already beat the crap out of these guys when she was just at the Spirit Nurturing Final Stage, let alone now, when she was already at the Half-Step Soul Formation Stage.

There were often misunderstandings about the abilities of prodigies from the Heavenly Court. They did not know just how much of a difference it made when bloodlines, aptitudes, cultivation methods, and weapons were taken into consideration.

Everyone would be ashamed to call themselves students of the Heavenly Court if they couldn't even defeat enemies a rank or two above them.

"Sigh, why do people always lust over my looks? It looks like being too beautiful is a concern as well…" Su Qianyun pouted as she muttered to herself and continued wandering around aimlessly.

Atop an incredibly tall mountain in the north.

There was a miniature white dog halfway up the mountain, who had obscured his aura, and was waiting to be rescued.

This miniature white dog was none other than Da Bai in his miniature form.

Da Bai had just witnessed an epic battle between two Return to Void Stage mighty figures, and although the battle had ended quickly, he still pissed himself in fear during that time. It appeared that all the cultivators from the Realm of the Fallen Phoenix had been transferred here! He was just a Spirit Nurturing Stage dog! Who could he defeat in this world?

He couldn't beat anyone here, so he could only hide himself away…

Da Bai hid behind a massive rock as he looked up with a disconsolate expression at the comical faces in the sky.

"Save me, Big Brother An! This world is too dangerous; I can't live without you! Waah… woof!"

An Lin leaped onto his brick and searched the system of valleys below him but was unable to find anything of particular interest aside from a few weak trash cultivators.

"How the hell do I get out of this stupid place?" An Lin's brows furrowed.

Since he had the golden egg on his back, he would be targeted by everyone.

His top priority was to get out of this place before finding a place where he could reunite with his companions.

An Lin suddenly turned toward the incredibly tall mountain in the north. "According to my experience with mystic realms, there is a very good chance that this mountain could provide the exit to this mystic realm. Alright! The mountain it is then!"

Thus, he flew atop his brick toward the gargantuan mountain in the distance.

Right at this moment, a spatial rift appeared above the system of valleys down below.

A gate of light appeared from the spatial rift.

A tall and slender woman in a suit of white armor made her way out from the gate of light before surveying the world around her with curious eyes.

"Could this be the real Realm of the Fallen Phoenix? Not bad, it really is quite a beautiful place…

"Voice transmission talismans are ineffective here, but that doesn't matter. I should be able to find Su Wenjun and the others in no time with my powerful divine sense…"
