Chapter 1024: Chapter 1024: River Map Displays Its Might

"I’m so hungry... I need to eat..."

The Chaos demonic fetus muttered to itself, its face ferocious as it quickly approached a corpse and began to feed.

It was born of countless resentful spirits, and in itself possessed over a thousand Divine Powers. It could speak from the moment it was born, a rare talent indeed; however, its nature was murderous and voracious, and it could not control itself.

It only wanted to eat, to keep eating endlessly.

Because it was incredibly hungry, hungry to the point of madness.

Zhao Gongming looked back and saw its grotesque form, feeling a chill in his heart; leaving such a monster alive was undoubtedly a disaster.

Although Zhao Gongming was no saint, he could not tolerate the existence of such evil beings.

With that thought, Zhao Gongming charged toward the Chaos demonic fetus once more.

Qin Jun then smiled at Fairy Nansu and asked, "Tell me, why should I cooperate with you?"

Fairy Nansu, still in a daze, quickly regained her senses upon hearing his words, took a deep breath, and said, "I can join forces with you against our enemies, and afterwards, I’ll reveal to you the secrets of the ’All-Encompassing Sacred Words’."

The All-Encompassing Sacred Words!

Qin Jun narrowed his eyes; whatever was hidden within the All-Encompassing Sacred Words was so dangerous that even the system judged it as perilous.

Having such a treasure at hand and not being able to use it was indeed frustrating.

While Qin Jun hesitated, Zhao Gongming reached the Chaos demonic fetus and slammed down his right hand, holding twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls, onto the back of the fetus. Blood burst open from its body, splashing out as the Chaos demonic fetus was smashed face down onto the bloody ground.

The next second, the Chaos demonic fetus vanished into thin air.

It then reappeared behind Zhao Gongming, its right fist enveloped in frost as it came crashing down, but Zhao Gongming, with his quick reflexes, turned around and dodged.

The Chaos demonic fetus seemed to go into a frenzy, propping itself up with its right hand, rolling forward, and as its left fist swirled with countless blades of wind, it aimed another punch to crush Zhao Gongming’s skull.

But Zhao Gongming, a veteran of many battles with extensive Divine Power, was not flustered at all.

"Bastard! Take your granddaddy’s palm strike!"

Zhao Gongming sneered, as he slapped out with his right palm, each carrying twenty-four small orbs of light.

When fist met palm, an unimaginable force stirred up a violent storm, sweeping in all directions, the surrounding ruins lifted up and turned into a cloud of dust.

Even Qin Jun, Qiang Liang, and Fairy Nansu had to retreat.

"His cultivation is so incredibly strong; where on earth does Heavenly Emperor of Qin come from?"

Fairy Nansu was shocked. She was a mid-level practitioner in entering the realm of the sage, but compared to Zhao Gongming, their presence was worlds apart.

She then glanced at Patriarch Bodhi in the distance, godlike.

Both were serving Qin Jun.

She couldn’t begin to imagine the background of Qin Jun, who could send two top-tier experts at his beck and call; his behind-the-scenes strength must be enormous, beyond her wildest imagination.

"Could he be from the Holy Sect?"

Fairy Nansu thought with trepidation, when suddenly, Qin Jun spoke, "What would it cost me to cooperate with you?"

He was still unable to resist the temptation of the All-Encompassing Sacred Words.

As long as Fairy Nansu did not make too excessive a demand.

"I only need you to accompany me to a forbidden land and ensure my safety!"

Fairy Nansu smiled, her eyes narrowing like crescent moons, beautiful and charming.

Forbidden land?

Qin Jun frowned; the forbidden lands in the cosmos were no simple matter, most of them being where strong practitioners met their end, with a slim chance of survival.

"Ding! Side mission triggered – Protect Fairy Nansu! Mission details: Fairy Nansu hopes the host will protect her as she ventures into a forbidden land. If the host successfully protects her in and out of the forbidden land, they will receive one opportunity for a ’God and Demon summon’ and one chance at a ’God and Demon Ultimate Opportunity’!"

The system notification followed, highlighting the certain danger of this mission.

Qin Jun spoke gravely, "I’ll have to accompany you after obtaining the heavenly scriptures. Can you wait?"

Fairy Nansu was taken aback; she had not expected Qin Jun to come to the Ancient Immortal Realm for the heavenly scriptures.

But thinking that even Canghua Immortal Venerable was no match for Patriarch Bodhi, wouldn’t the heavenly book be an easy grab for Qin Jun?

"Alright!" Fairy Nansu agreed readily.

Meanwhile, Fuxi was relentlessly beating Ximen Qinggang on the other side of the Ancient Immortal Realm.

As the two flew over mountains and great rivers, it was mostly Fuxi attacking; with the strum of his phoenix zither, Ximen Qinggang had no way to parry.

With a boom!

Ximen Qinggang shot back like a cannonball, skimming across the sea surface, creating two rows of gigantic waves a thousand feet high.

He slid over tens of millions of miles without being able to stop, showing just how powerful Fuxi’s attack was.

"You are as good as dead!"

Fuxi, holding the zither with one hand, chased after his foe like an exiled immortal, leaving behind a series of afterimages amongst the giant waves, showcasing his casual elegance.

Bloodied all over, Ximen Qinggang bore none of the dignity of the Tao Court Sect Leader; he struggled to stabilize himself, but Fuxi was already atop him.

Fuxi raised his left hand, and a white scroll hovered above his palm, depicting mountains and rivers like a microcosm of a small world, seemingly twisting and turning.

It was none other than the River Map!

The sight of the River Map sent shivers down Ximen Qinggang’s spine, his scalp tingling. He immediately burst forth with all his magic power, causing the seawater below to churn and nearly blot out the sky.

Fuxi smiled in disdain as he cast the River Map down; in an instant, a bright light erupted, and the River Map turned into a beam of light that shot towards Ximen Qinggang with a speed beyond the reaction capability of someone entering the realm of the sage.

Ximen Qinggang raised his hands, ready to use his Divine Power, but before he could gather his magic power, the River Map pierced through his brow.

Directly forcing his Primordial Spirit out of his body!

Ximen Qinggang’s Primordial Spirit, like a flicker of light, was sucked into the bright light of the River Map. He screamed, attempting to escape, but it was to no avail.

"Aaah! How dare you scatter my soul! How cruel and malicious!"

Ximen Qinggang cursed furiously, his words filled with anger and despair.

Fuxi remained indifferent; joking aside, if he were to let the Primordial Spirit of an entity that had entered the realm of the sage escape, wouldn’t he be leaving a disaster in his wake, courting his own destruction?

He grasped at the void with his left hand, and the River Map swiftly flew into his sleeve, taking Ximen Qinggang’s Primordial Spirit with it, leaving no trace.

Ximen Qinggang’s bloody body also fell towards the ocean and was eventually consumed by the terrifying waves.

"Ding! Side mission completed — Fury of the Tao Court Sect! Obtained one chance for God and Demon summoning, one chance for God and Demon peak opportunity, and one random lottery draw!"

System notification sounds suddenly rang out in Qin Jun’s mind, causing his eyes to narrow.

With this chance at the God and Demon peak, he had accumulated five God and Demon peak opportunities!

He could exchange it for one undying peak loyalty!

Be it Fuxi or Qiang Liang, both were formidable beings on par with Patriarch Bodhi!

Just thinking about this made Qin Jun tremble with excitement, causing the nearby Fairy Nansu to look at him in surprise.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Fairy Nansu asked confusedly, while Qiang Liang was used to it.

Qin Jun’s lips curled into a smile, and his eyebrows raised as he chuckled, "Nothing. I just suddenly feel like I’ve gotten a bit more handsome."

Handsome?

The corner of Fairy Nansu’s mouth twitched slightly under her veil, clearly unimpressed.

Ximen Qinggang’s demise startled the creatures that had flown over from the boundless ocean.

"My heavens! Was that Ximen Qinggang just now?"

"How is that possible? Is Ximen Qinggang dead?"

"Who is that person? Their movements just now were so fast!"

"Such a strong presence... With Ximen Yu and Ximen Qinggang dead one after the other, the power of the Tao Court Sect has greatly diminished."

"What on earth happened?"
