Atop a towering peak in the Nether Immortal Dynasty.

The surrounding mountain peaks were grim and forbidding.

In the distance, clouds swirled unpredictably, accompanied by a radiant glow.

At present, a large black carriage was parked atop a massive boulder.

Four fluffy little cats of different colors were lying atop the carriage, looking utterly adorable.

A robust black horse was also resting on the rock, its eyes closed as if in the midst of Cultivation.

On top of the carriage stood a small black bird, looking here and there as if searching for something.

Beside the carriage stood three youths, their extraordinary auras prominent as they stood against the wind.

These three individuals were none other than the future leading figures of the Dragon God Sect: Sect Master Luo Li, Senior Sister Su Wanyi, and Junior Brother Jun Moxiao.

Three months had passed, and all three had reached Level Two of the Nirvana Realm in their cultivation.

Jun Moxiao was even further ahead, on the verge of breaking through to the Third Level of the Nirvana Realm.

"The Old Ancestor has been away for over three months now. Why hasn't he returned yet? I wonder how he is doing," Luo Li said, withdrawing her gaze from the distance, her expression melancholic as she lowered her head.

"Indeed. When the Old Ancestor went to the Divine Land before, he returned quickly. I wonder why he's delayed this time. Could he have encountered some powerful spirit that's managed to entangle him?" Su Wanyi speculated.

Jun Moxiao's face was somewhat pale as he gazed into the distance and murmured, "Senior Sister, I have a bad feeling. I'm afraid the Old Ancestor... might not return this time."

"What nonsense are you spouting, Junior Brother!" Luo Li lifted her head, glaring at him unhappily.

"The Divine Land is teeming with spirits, and powerful experts are numerous. I'm afraid the Old Ancestor might have encountered some danger," Jun Moxiao's face flushed crimson as he said awkwardly.

"Are you cursing the Old Ancestor to die?" Luo Li abruptly put her hands on her hips, glaring fiercely at Jun Moxiao.

"Senior Sister, please don't misunderstand! I would never think such a thing," Jun Moxiao quickly explained.

"Junior Sister, don't be so hard on Junior Brother. He's still just a child," Su Wanyi gently advised from the side.

"Sigh, I know Junior Brother wouldn't think that way," Luo Li sighed.

The Big Black Horse suddenly yawned, opened its eyes, and looked at the three youths. It chuckled, its lips twitching slightly as it said, "Young Masters, there's no need to worry about Master. In this world, there's no one who can even threaten him."

A hint of pride flashed in the Big Black Horse's eyes as it finished speaking.

As a Divine Pet from the warehouse, it naturally had some understanding of Master's foundation. Not to mention other things, just one of the terrifying Divine Pets from that warehouse—if an Immortal Level one were released—the rules of this world simply couldn't withstand it. As far as it knew, Master possessed many such warehouses; his resources were unimaginably profound. Therefore, Master was definitely in no mortal danger. His prolonged stay in the Divine Land must be for a specific reason.

"Little Horse, you're right. We'll wait a bit longer then," Luo Li said with a smile.

Jun Moxiao clenched his fists, his gaze fixed on the horizon. He murmured despondently, "The Nether Immortal Ancient Land has been open for several days now, and the Old Ancestor still hasn't returned. It looks like we're going to miss out this time."

"The Nether Immortal Ancient Land isn't such a great place anyway. It doesn't matter whether we go or not," at this, the Azure Sea Heavenly Dragon, sprawled on the carriage, lazily opened one eye and drawled.

As the Divine Dragon with the highest cultivation base in the Cangnan Continent, it too had sensed the Nether Immortal Ancient Land and detected an unsettling aura emanating from it. By using its divine skills to invade the sea of consciousness of a cultivator, it had learned more about the Nether Immortal Ancient Land. It discovered that this small world housed many bizarre creatures. Even though numerous cultivators ventured there for training, the chances of perishing were extremely high.

"The Nether Immortal Ancient Land is known as one of the Ten Great Immortal Lands. Naturally, it contains many treasures. It would indeed be a pity to miss out," Luo Li didn't agree with the Azure Sea Heavenly Dragon. On the contrary, she felt her Junior Brother Jun Moxiao's words made a lot of sense.

The Azure Sea Heavenly Dragon snorted, tucked its head beneath its fluffy belly, and resumed its deep slumber.

As long as these three little ones weren't in any danger, its mission would be considered complete. That was why it had been diligently trying to prevent Luo Li and the others from entering the Nether Immortal Ancient Land.

"Luo Li is right. It seems after three months, you've all been cooped up in this carriage so long you're about to grow mold!" a warm, gentle male voice suddenly drifted down from mid-air.

Upon hearing this voice, everyone, including the several demon beasts, felt a jolt of energy. They all stood up and looked towards the sky.

"The Old Ancestor is back!" Luo Li cried out, her face flushing crimson with excitement.

A gentle smile graced Su Wanyi's beautiful face.

The void rippled, and a figure in white, resembling a celestial being from a painting, stepped out.

"Old Ancestor, you're finally back!" Jun Moxiao exclaimed, tears streaming down his face as he spoke, his voice choked with emotion, a mix of crying and laughing.

"I'm back." Ye Yun descended from mid-air. He reached out and gently ruffled the hair of the three young members of the Dragon God Sect.

"You've all done well. Your cultivation hasn't slacked; you've all reached Level Two of the Nirvana Realm," Ye Yun said approvingly.

"Old Ancestor, now that you're back, you won't be leaving again after just a few days, will you?" Jun Moxiao asked anxiously, forgetting to wipe away his tears.

"Rest assured, I won't be leaving again anytime soon," Ye Yun chuckled, then looked towards the four little cats on the carriage.

Little Cat's cultivation base had broken through to the First Level of the Nirvana Realm, progressing with remarkable speed. The Big Black Cat was at the Fifth Level of the Destiny Realm. There wasn't much change in the Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon; after all, breaking through each level in the Eternal Realm required a considerable amount of time. As for the Azure Sea Heavenly Dragon, it had no opportunity to break through on the Cangnan Continent. The Xuan bird also showed little change. Mu Qing, inside the carriage, had also advanced to the Eighth Level of the Destiny Realm. She had been stuck at the Seventh Level of the Destiny Realm for a long time, so this breakthrough was a natural progression.

"Wow, what a huge silkworm baby!" Luo Li exclaimed, snapping back to attention. She had just noticed a plump, white silkworm floating behind the Old Ancestor. It was round and utterly adorable, and in her excitement, she gasped.

Silkworm baby? A dark line instantly appeared on the Immortal Divine Silkworm's forehead. I'm this old, and I'm still being called a baby?

Ye Yun chuckled. A silkworm baby that has lived for an epoch? This little girl Luo Li is truly adorable! She almost stunned me the moment she spoke.

"Little Silkworm, this young lady is Luo Li, the current Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect whom I mentioned to you," Ye Yun said, turning with a faint smile.

What?! This... this is the Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect? The Immortal Divine Silkworm was instantly flustered. It hurriedly flew over and prostrated itself at Luo Li's feet.

"Immortal Divine Silkworm greets Sect Master!" it kowtowed repeatedly, its voice loud and its demeanor utterly respectful.

On the carriage, the Azure Sea Heavenly Dragon craned its neck, staring at the plump white silkworm, its eyes wide with utter shock.

This inconspicuous white silkworm had a higher cultivation base than it did. The white silkworm had reached the Third Level of the Divine Monarch Realm.

The Big Black Horse stared at the Immortal Divine Silkworm, its eyes widening in astonishment. "Master," it exclaimed, "you let it out?"
