Outside the Immortal Light Array, the group of cultivators fell into despair after the Vermilion Bird, Divine Monkey, and Old Xuan Turtle charged out. They originally thought that the Vermilion Bird and Divine Monkey were the most vicious, immediately slaughtering a large swath of Human Clan practitioners and devouring their flesh. However, when the Old Xuan Turtle appeared, they realized that the most ruthless was this old turtle. Not only did it consume flesh, but it also intended to kill everyone here, leaving not a drop of blood for the Vermilion Bird and Divine Monkey. Killing and consuming flesh with a nonchalant expression, it was truly the most terrifying creature.

The black Order Divine Chain, the Old Xuan Turtle's magical artifact, caused great losses to both the Vermilion Bird, Divine Monkey, and people like Ye Tianchen. This black Order Divine Chain was incredibly formidable. Among all present, perhaps only Ye Tianchen could break it, as he possessed the supreme Treasure "Holy Heaven Prison," a powerful ultimate treasure. Within it lay the Chaos Qi from the birth of the Martial Arts World, a thing that could drive all cultivators mad. It was precisely due to the power of the Chaos Qi that Ye Tianchen could break the black Order Divine Chain. Otherwise, not only he, but Pangu Yun, Huo Xianer, Jing Wuhuan, and Little Zhu Yan would have all perished inside the Immortal Light Array!

"Heavens, what on earth is this black divine chain? Can't it be broken?"

"Could it be that we are all really going to die here?"

"The Human Clan has always been weak, always defeated by the Ancient Clan and Demon Clan. Is there really no one here who can stop these three monsters?"

"Throughout history, ever since the rise of the Human Clan, there have always been Saints and Emperors to protect us. Is there none this time? Is there no one who can save us?"

The remaining Human Clan cultivators were engulfed in hopelessness, all feeling the tragedy. Were they really all to die here? Was there truly no one who could save them?

"This black Order Divine Chain, not to mention you all, even if an Ancient Saint came, it might not be breakable. You all should just wait to die!" The Old Xuan Turtle coldly declared.

Whoosh!

Boom!

Suddenly, when everyone was feeling hopeless, even Ye Tianchen had no solution, unable to frequently use the power of the "Holy Heaven Prison." This supreme treasure was not something he could casually activate. Once again, they were enveloped by the Old Turtle's black Order Divine Chain. However, unexpectedly, from deep within the Original Restricted Zone, where the exotic treasure "God-beating Whip" had once appeared, emanated an incredibly powerful force. This force struck the black Order Divine Chain, forcibly tearing open a door, stunning everyone. Who was so powerful to open a path for everyone?

"Why are you all not leaving quickly?" A voice, though somewhat weak, exuded an aura of majesty palpable to all.

"Predecessor Qin Kongdao?"

Ye Tianchen was stunned. Perhaps everyone else was unaware, but he clearly understood because the voice belonged to Qin Kongdao. Despite his weakened state, sealed within a rock, Qin Kongdao exerted all his might to unleash such a powerful force, opening a path for the Human Clan practitioners trapped by the black Order Divine Chain. He was a predecessor with the world at heart, concerned for the Human Clan, deserving respect!

"Quickly leave, with my condition, this is all I can do. If you are enveloped by the Order Divine Chain again, fleeing will become impossible!" Qin Kongdao conveyed with Divine Thought to Ye Tianchen.

"Predecessor... you... I will definitely save you!" Ye Tianchen responded earnestly using Divine Thought.

"Don't trouble yourself; so many years have passed. I fear the Qin family no longer exists. My family, my friends, are likely all dead. There is no point in me leaving, I might as well wither away within this rock, to have a beginning and an end!" Qin Kongdao said calmly.

"Predecessor..." Ye Tianchen wished to persuade him but was interrupted by Qin Kongdao.

"Quickly leave, there's no more time! Don't come back here. After this event, the Original Restricted Zone will become even more chaotic and terrifying, leave now!" Qin Kongdao urged sternly.

Ye Tianchen gritted his teeth, glancing at Pangu Yun, Huo Xianer, Jing Wuhuan, and Little Zhu Yan behind him. By now, many Human Clan cultivators had escaped through the gap Qin Kongdao opened in the Old Xuan Turtle's black Order Divine Chain. The Old Xuan Turtle charged forward to stop them, but it hadn't expected its black Order Divine Chain to be broken, caught off guard!

Old Xuan Turtle furrowed its brow fiercely. Seeing that these Human Clan Practitioners had all run away, it couldn't help but grit its teeth and gazed coldly at the depths of the Original Restricted Zone where Qin Kongdao was sealed by stone and said, "You let those people escape so you must die. I never thought you could still wield such power after thousands of years; I truly underestimated you!"

"Back in the day, you were weaker than me. When I entered here, you hid in the depths of the Original Restricted Zone, otherwise I would have killed you long ago and not let you be the strongest being in this Original Restricted Zone!" Qin Kongdao's voice was neither hot nor cold, very indifferent as he spoke.

"Hmph, it looks like I really need to compete with you!" Old Xuan Turtle snorted coldly, speaking with utmost seriousness.

"Then come and try, I'm afraid you're still not my match!" Qin Kongdao said with a look of disdain.

Swish!

In the next moment, Old Xuan Turtle no longer attacked these Human Clan Practitioners. In its view, Qin Kongdao was its strongest enemy. This Human Clan Martial Artist, sealed within this peculiar rock of the Original Restricted Zone for thousands of years, was unexpectedly so strong. Even in this state, he was able to break its Black Order Divine Chain—truly remarkable. Old Xuan Turtle also wanted to seize the opportunity to kill Qin Kongdao. As for Vermilion Bird and Divine Monkey, if they joined forces, perhaps it would be a battle, but in a scattered fight, they were not its opponents. In this aspect, Old Xuan Turtle was quite confident, fearing neither Vermilion Bird nor Divine Monkey.

Old Xuan Turtle rushed towards where Qin Kongdao was sealed by the rock, and Vermilion Bird and Divine Monkey, after hesitating for a moment, also headed towards the place where Qin Kongdao was sealed without exchanging a word. Ye Tianchen furrowed his brows; Vermilion Bird and Divine Monkey were not simple characters and were different from ordinary beings. They both wanted to seize the chance to kill Old Xuan Turtle, and Qin Kongdao, although sealed in this world for thousands of years, was still so strong—something they hadn't expected and found particularly shocking. Perhaps Qin Kongdao could truly engage in a life-and-death battle with Old Xuan Turtle. If that were the case, they might be able to use Qin Kongdao to kill Old Xuan Turtle. Then, in the Original Restricted Zone, only Vermilion Bird and Divine Monkey would remain as the strongest. When the time came, their murderous confrontation would determine who truly was the strongest, but that was a matter for the future. Overall, Vermilion Bird and Divine Monkey felt Old Xuan Turtle's formidable and unfathomable power. As long as Old Xuan Turtle was alive, they could not hope to rule the Original Restricted Zone and faced the constant threat of being killed, so they desired Old Xuan Turtle's death. Ideally, with Qin Kongdao's help, they could obliterate Old Xuan Turtle completely.

Ye Tianchen, Huo Xianer, Pangu Yun, Jing Wuhuan, and Little Zhu Yan all rushed out, and after doing so, Pangu Yun and Jing Wuhuan bid farewell, leaving Ye Tianchen and Huo Xianer behind. Huo Xianer glanced at Ye Tianchen and said, "Hey, I'm leaving!"

"Take care, goodbye!" Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

"You… don't you have anything to say to me?" Huo Xianer asked after a brief pause.

"We'll still be friends when we meet again!" Ye Tianchen chuckled as he replied.

"That's not what I meant…" Huo Xianer said, her sweet face darkening.

"Then what do you want to say?" Ye Tianchen asked, somewhat puzzled.

"The Fire God Gourd is a supreme treasure of our Fire God Sacred Land, refined for the Ancient Fire God. Shouldn't you return it to me?" Huo Xianer asked with intense eyes fixed on Ye Tianchen.

Ye Tianchen knew well that Huo Xianer had been persistently following him with some motive, and just as he expected, Huo Xianer had been coveting the Fire God Gourd on him, wanting Ye Tianchen to hand it over. How was that possible? Not to mention whether Ye Tianchen was willing to give it to Huo Xianer, the key fact is that the Fire God Gourd was not Ye Tianchen's treasure but was borrowed from Tianshuang'er of the Heavenly Number Mysterious Sect. Just handing it to Huo Xianer would make it difficult to explain to Tianshuang'er, and Ye Tianchen couldn't make such a decision lightly.

"I can't be sure whether the Fire God Gourd is the supreme treasure of your Fire God Sacred Land. What's important is that the gourd was given to me by a friend for self-defense, and if I hand it over to you, how can I explain it to my friend?" Ye Tianchen said, shaking his head.

"You… you're making excuses because you don't want to return the supreme treasure to our Fire God Sacred Land!" Huo Xianer grouched, glaring fiercely at Ye Tianchen.

"I'm telling the truth; here's what we can do: I promise to bring the Fire God Gourd to your Fire God Sacred Land. By then, if it truly is your sacred treasure, I'll persuade my friend to return it to you, how about that?" Ye Tianchen said seriously as he looked at Huo Xianer.

"Is that true?" Huo Xianer looked at Ye Tianchen, somewhat incredulous.

"Absolutely true. If you don't believe me, we can leave lip imprints as a guarantee, how about that?" Ye Tianchen said with a mischievous smile, looking at Huo Xianer. (To be continued.
