"The Wolf King is back!" Long Xueyi shouted.

Shen Xiang grabbed the newly refined purple pill and swiftly traveled through space before leaving!

The returning Wolf King saw only a few Purple Wolves and Leopards on the battlefield below, his anger boiling over. He roared fiercely, causing those still alive Leopards to hurriedly flee.

Shen Xiang didn't know that the moment he left, his pursuers arrived. This time, it wasn’t the Lightning King and co., but another team – the Ice Emperor from the Holy Ice Celestial Domain, the Patriarch of Tai Shengmen, and another powerful figure from the Holy Land, along with over a dozen formidable Holy Venerables.

Not long after, they arrived here. The enraged Wolf King saw humans and believed they were responsible for his predicament before starting a violent confrontation…

"What a powerful Wolf King!" Shen Xiang had already moved away from the battlefield. This time, his gains were significantly more than in his previous encounter.

After ingesting the pill and fusing it with his divinity, he continued searching for these purple beasts. Originally, he planned to take a seat and refine them properly, but due to being constantly pursued by various teams, he had to change his location frequently.

Over the next few days, while constantly changing locations, Shen Xiang continued refining the beast souls that he had previously ingested. His soul was growing steadily, but there was still a long way to go before he could cultivate his Imperial Soul.

Early in the morning, as Shen Xiang approached a purple lake, his communication jade talisman suddenly vibrated. Upon examination, he found that Qi Shi had sent him a message.

"Little devil, be careful. Old Black is indeed problematic; he’s not the old black we know anymore. Where are you We need to quickly meet up and discuss this in detail."

When Shen Xiang heard the message, he tightly gripped the communication jade talisman and frowned as he informed Long Xueyi while informing Qi Shi of his location.

Qi Shi and Jiang Sheng did not enter the Cold Wind Forest. Before doing so, they tested Old Black in various ways and indeed found something amiss before sending their message to Shen Xiang.

Shen Xiang waited for more than an hour before Qi Shi and Jiang Sheng arrived at the fastest possible speed.

"What’s wrong with Old Black" Shen Xiang asked anxiously.

Qi Shi sighed, "It’s a strange feeling. His body and soul remain the same, but they’re not the old black we know anymore. He’s changed significantly in terms of personality, but he pretends to have the familiar characteristics we know him for when trying to get closer."

Jiang Sheng added, "He revealed a hint of anger when we discovered him. Thankfully, our displayed strength wasn’t weak; otherwise, he might have started a fight with us and ended up fleeing. We suspect that he was targeting you!"

Qi Shi nodded, "Although he mentioned going to the Cold Wind Forest, he made various excuses for staying in Purple Leaf Forest during his journey. He hinted at our need to find you, suggesting that he was looking for an opportunity to ambush you."

Shen Xiang asked, "Is he the ancient wicked lion mentioned in legends I discovered his lingering evil power once before."

Qi Shi and Jiang Sheng didn't notice anything unusual at first glance. Black soil was common, but when they used intense fire to bake it in their hands, they sensed the terrifying evil aura emanating from it.

"Indeed," Qi Shi sighed, turning to Shen Xiang and asking solemnly, "Is it really from that footprint we found"

Shen Xiang nodded.

Jiang Sheng said, "Certainly, it’s a powerful evil aura! Big Lion, do you know something about this"

Qi Shi said, "Our old black might have been devoured. His soul and body memories were absorbed by the one who devoured him, making it likely that he’s the ancient wicked lion!"

Jiang Sheng exclaimed angrily, "One of our friends is dead like this! It’s so unfair!"

Qi Shi said solemnly, "If it really is the ancient wicked lion, we might find it hard to deal with. It would be best if we summoned Master and Vermilion Bird!" His goal was Shen Xiang, so he believed it wouldn’t be difficult to lure him out.

"You two can't defeat him" Shen Xiang was surprised.

Qi Shi said, "He’s in a repressed state now, making it hard to find him. If he reveals his true self, I’m afraid that even with my current strength, I can’t harm him. Back then, it would have been different," he shook his head. "We better find Master and Vermilion Bird as soon as possible!"

Long Xueyi’s voice suddenly boomed from the Purple Fairy Amulet, "How powerful is that ancient wicked lion Even a white cat and fire phoenix need to work together!"

"Peppy Dragon, you never encountered him back then and didn’t know his strength. Plus, he has been around for many years without being sealed or reborn, so his power must be even more terrifying. Even if he doesn’t have divinity, his strength would surpass that of a typical Imperial Realm," Qi Shi explained.

"Shen Xiang, be careful. Don’t let him get too close. With his strength, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to ambush you and take control," Qi Shi warned Shen Xiang seriously.

Shen Xiang looked at the purple leaves and lake, saying, "Come on, let’s go to Divine Fire Forest to find Vermilion Bird!"

Qi Shi and Jiang Sheng nodded!

Jiang Sheng took out a ship with a cabin, inside was a hall and several rooms. Although somewhat narrow, in the context of a quick-flying treasure, it was quite decent.

Entering the Cold Wind Forest which was extremely cold, they encountered harsh winter conditions superior to the Mystic Cold Ancient Domain of the Divine Sky. Jiang Sheng’s ship not only resisted extreme coldness but also enabled rapid flight, defending against powerful attacks.

Long Xueyi stepped out of the Purple Fairy Amulet, sitting by the window in the hall with her head bent. As she looked outside at the purple and mysterious scenery, she ate the Sacred Snow Pear that Qi Shi had compensated her with.

To help Jiang Sheng know how to proceed, Shen Xiang sent Dongfang Xin Yue out.

"You’re here!" Jiang Sheng smiled, recognizing Dongfang Xin Yue along with Qi Shi. Shen Xiang had asked Jiang Sheng to find the Ice Dragon Clan before, guiding her in crafting Divine Beasts with Liu Meng Er and others. Dongfang Xin Yue had been part of the team then.

"Greetings to both seniors!" Dongfang Xin Yue respectfully bowed.

Long Xueyi said with a slight scowl, "Be polite to them. Xin Yue, if you’re too polite to them, Vermilion Bird would blame you and probably scold you. Instead, learn from her and adopt a more straightforward attitude!"

Jiang Sheng chuckled, agreeing. "You’re right, young girl. Don’t be polite when you appear before Vermilion Bird; you’ll likely receive a scolding from her. Don’t worry, we won’t blame you."

"I wonder how Master is doing now. Is he giving Vermilion Bird a hard time Remember, back then, did Vermilion Bird and Xuwen ever have that kind of relationship… Did Vermilion Bird know about this" Qi Shi chuckled mischievously.

"She doesn’t know. Please don’t tell her or she’ll kill me," Jiang Sheng earnestly warned everyone.urn to the Du Family, Du Kang Sheng would have known.Since Du Hai didn't tell his son and granddaughter, Shen Xiang didn't mention it either. He knew Du Hai had another intention."Yanyao, what kind of...
