In the northern part of Northern Continent lies the Great Wilderness.

This place is no longer shrouded in miasma and poison fog, yet it is notoriously barren and infertile.

Scarcely can one see a living creature in the Great Wilderness, nor any green vegetation; there are only endless dunes and rocks.

The ground is covered with thick gravel, and every day, the piercing Gang Wind howls in from the north, slicing and tearing the mountains into all kinds of strange shapes.

Only a very small number of creatures can barely survive in this harsh environment.

This vast and desolate Great Wilderness seems as if it had been abandoned by the entire world.

Deep within the treacherous mountain named Buxian within the Great Wilderness, a giant of a man strides as nimbly as if flying, rushing towards the heart of the mountain.

This robust man is at least ten feet tall, his body a mass of knotted muscles, his entire being wreathed in a thick, scorching aura of blood that has almost solidified into substance.

He wears nothing but a skirt sewn from tiger skin, no other garment to cover his body. His hair is tousled, and dangling from his earlobes are two fiery-red little snakes that hiss and spit out their tongues from time to time.

If Yu Yuan were here, he could recognize this robust man as the Red Sun Witch King he had previously encountered.

He sprints all the way, soon reaching his destination.

From afar, one can see a treacherous mountain pass up ahead.

On both sides of the mountain pass, jagged rocks stand erect.

They are studded with all sorts of carcasses, mostly the skeletons of the Demon Clan and Fierce Beasts.

Among them are not a few Demon King level powerhouses, and even the skeleton of a Demon God is nailed to the highest point.

The Witch Clan nails these skeletons here to declare their sovereignty and as a silent warning to the Demon Clan and Fierce Beasts.

Trespass upon the Witch Clan's territory, and death is the only path!

Beyond the mountain pass, there lies a relatively open and flat valley.

Many caves have been carved into the rocks of the valley, which are interconnected and virtually hollow out the mountain, inhabited by many bulky Witch Clan people.

At the center of the valley stands a huge stone pillar, engraved with ancient patterns, seemingly a portrait of a figure, only with a human body and a snake's tail, and seven palms growing on its back.

The pillar is covered with mottled dark brown bloodstains, and a strong stench of blood lingers around it.

Clearly, these Witch Clan people frequently anoint this pillar with fresh blood.

The Chi Yang Witch King approaches a cave, where the many Witch Clan people inside promptly come to greet him.

"You've finally returned."

A Witch Clan brawny man anxiously said: "Yesterday in our clan, a full seven of our companions perished..."

"What?!"

The Chi Yang Witch King's bushy eyebrows immediately knit together, he grabbed the brawny man speaking, and, unable to contain his rage, roared: "I was only out for a few days, and so many clansmen have died? Tell me clearly, what exactly happened?"

It is difficult for the Witch Clan to reproduce, and their numbers are extremely sparse; the death of any one Witch Clan member is a major event, perhaps even a matter of life and death for a tribe.

The Chi Yang Witch King's tribe only has a little over seventy adult Witch Clan members; now losing one-tenth of their fighting power at once, they will inevitably be hard-pressed when facing future invasions from the Demon Clan and Fierce Beasts.

"It was that Primordial One Qi Immortal!"

The brawny man hurriedly spoke: "Yesterday, when we were hunting the Big Green Snake, that Primordial One Qi Immortal riding a Golden-eyed Five Clouds Camel passed by, and asked us to skin the snake for him. We refused, and he made his move.

He is very powerful; even several of our clansmen together were not his match, and instead, he killed seven of our people..."

"You said he was riding the Golden-eyed Five Clouds Camel?"

The Chi Yang Witch King seemed to recall something, and with a fierce blow, he smashed his fist against the nearby stone pillar, directly crushing it into a heap of loose gravel.

"If I had known that scoundrel was the One Qi Immortal, I should have slapped him to death then and there! No, after he has killed so many of my clansmen, I absolutely cannot let him off!"

"But that Primordial One Qi Immortal has already left a long time ago, where can we find him?" asked the anxious brawny man with a frown.

"We can ask the Clan Leader to take action!"

The Chi Yang Witch King had already planned, he swiftly walked over to that stone pillar, bit his finger to draw blood, and smeared the scalding blood on the pillar, then he solemnly said:

"The Chi Yang Clan of Zhu Rong Tribe respectfully requests the Clan Leader to manifest!"

With his words, something that had been slumbering within the pillar seemed to awaken.

A resolute and valiant face emerged on that pillar.

"Da Pan, Clan Leader!"

The Chi Yang Witch King gazed at the face on the pillar and said gravely: "An Immortal God claiming to be the One Qi Immortal has invaded Buxian Mountain, slaughtering seven of our Chi Yang clansmen. I implore the Clan Leader to avenge them!"

"Again, this One Qi Immortal!"

The face of Da Pan, Clan Leader on the pillar appeared very angry and declared in a deep voice: "In the past two days, eight clans have reported this One Qi Immortal's murderous acts against their clansmen... It seems this fiend really is heartless to the extreme!

Chi Yang, immediately select the elite warriors of our clan to join me. Even if we must deploy the Heaven and Earth Net, I will catch that scoundrel and personally rip him apart, alive!"

"Right away!"

The Chi Yang Witch King agreed with a shout, immediately gathered his clansmen, hand-picked ten elite warriors, instructed the others to stay and guard the caves, forbade them to go out, and then hurriedly left.

Similar scenes unfolded in other parts of the Great Wilderness.

Fuyu Mountain, Yushan, Hengtian Mountain, Ancestor Mountain, Da Feng Mountain...

Scattered Witch Clan people from various places began to converge, and under the arrangement of Da Pan, Clan Leader, they dispersed in all directions, searching for the whereabouts of that One Qi Immortal.
