Inside the cave.
Zhilan stared in shock at the two top-grade breakthrough pills in Qin Feng's right palm, and gasped deeply.
"Top-grade...top-grade breakthrough pill!"
"Where...where did you get that?"
Qin Feng smiled slightly. "I refined it myself."
"What?"
Zhilan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in disbelief. "This is an Emperor-level pill! Even the most skilled alchemists in the Xuan Tian Immortal Realm might not be able to refine it!"
"How...could it be something you made?"
Qin Feng pursed his lips. "Why can't it be something I refined?"
"Stop talking nonsense, do you want it or not?"
Zhilan took a deep breath, and after only a slight hesitation, immediately took the two Emperor Realm Pills.
"Qin Feng, thank you!"
Qin Feng waved his hand. "Don't be so polite!"
"Based on what you just said, you can be considered my senior sister, so it's only right for a junior brother to be filial to his senior sister."
Zhilan glanced at Qin Feng, but without any pretense, she swallowed an Emperor Realm Pill and sat down to meditate, entering a state of cultivation.
Qin Feng sat down to the side and also entered a state of cultivation.
Kunlun Void is too dangerous. It's not too late to go out after Zhilan has made a breakthrough in her cultivation.
Time always flies when you're practicing, and two months passed quickly.
Zhilan consumed a total of nine Emperor Realm Pills and successfully broke through to the late stage of the Immortal Emperor Realm.
Having broken through two minor realms in a row, Zhilan was not satisfied.
In Kunlun Void, only those at the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm are relatively safe.
So she asked Qin Feng for a few more Emperor Realm Pills, intending to advance to the peak of the Immortal Emperor Realm in one fell swoop.
As for Qin Feng, he made no progress in the past two months and remained at the peak of the Immortal King realm.
Two more months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhilan successfully advanced to the peak of the Immortal Emperor Realm. Although she was promoted with the help of the Emperor Realm Pill, there were no drawbacks.
This woman's combat power is still at the top level among those of the same realm.
Compared to veteran powerhouses like Zi Yun and Hao Yue, she is no weaker than them.
Qin Feng was ready to break through at any time, but he suppressed it and did not.
He planned to wait until he could no longer suppress the attack before making a breakthrough.
In that case, once he breaks through to the Immortal Emperor Realm, even if he isn't the ceiling among those of the same realm, he will definitely belong to the first tier.
Zi Lan spent half a month stabilizing her cultivation level before walking out of the cave with Qin Feng.
After discussing it, the two decided to leave Kunlun Mountain.
For them, staying at Kunlun Mountain now has no meaning.
One no longer requires a special opportunity, and the drawback of using pills to improve cultivation has been perfectly resolved.
Staying in Kunlun Mountain would be a waste of energy and time.
Qin Feng and Zhilan arrived at the outer area of Kunlun Void. Zhilan suddenly stopped, her brows furrowed, and she looked ahead with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.
Qin Feng stopped, looking puzzled, and asked Zhilan, "What's wrong?"
Zhilan took a deep breath, a complex look flashing in her beautiful eyes. "I sensed that woman's presence!"
"That woman?"
Qin Feng was stunned for a moment before realizing that "that woman" must be Zhilan's master, Meng Xiyao.
He immediately closed his eyes and focused on sensing, and sure enough, he sensed Meng Xiyao's presence.
Besides Meng Xiyao, he also sensed the auras of Zi Yun and Hao Yue, as well as the auras of more than a dozen unfamiliar peak Immortal Emperors.
Because of the great distance, his divine sense was unable to detect it.
Zhilan then looked puzzled. "Why didn't they fight?"
"Not only did they not fight, they even went together!"
Qin Feng frowned but did not reply.
He had already guessed that Zi Yun, Hao Yue's aura was very similar to Meng Xi Yao's.
Zhilan looked at Qin Feng and asked, "Should we go and meet them?"
Qin Feng hesitated for a moment, then shook his head. "Never mind!"
"I don't know if Ziyun and Haoyue have reconciled with Meng Xiyao, so it would be unwise to go there rashly."
Zhilan smiled slightly. "Aren't you curious why they're together?"
Qin Feng glanced at Zhilan. "Of course I'm curious, but I won't take risks just because I'm curious!"
"You're really cautious!"
Zhilan's eyes flickered. "I know Ziyun very well; there's absolutely no way she'd reconcile with Meng Xiyao."
"I suspect that they came to Kunlun Mountain together because they had no choice but to cooperate for some reason."
Qin Feng asked suspiciously, "What could be the compelling reason?"
Zhilan pondered for a moment, then guessed, "It's possible that an opportunity to break through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm has appeared in Kunlun Void!"
"I really can't think of any other reason besides that."
"Junior brother, I suggest we secretly follow them later!"
"What if there really is an opportunity to break through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm?"
After pondering for a moment, Qin Feng finally agreed to Zhilan's suggestion.
Then, both of them completely concealed their auras and disappeared underground.
Before long, Zi Yun and her group flew over Qin Feng and Zhi Lan.
After Zi Yun and her group flew far away, Qin Feng and Zhi Lan emerged from underground and slowly followed them.
With Zi Yun and her group leading the way, Qin Feng and Zhi Lan encountered no trouble and traveled smoothly all the way.
Two weeks later.
Zi Yun and her group stopped at the Blood Sea in the central area of Kunlun Xu.
The Blood Sea truly is a Blood Sea; the water is red, just like fresh blood.
The sea exuded a terrifying aura, like a fog, with extremely low visibility.
Although Qin Feng and Zhi Lan were still far from the Blood Sea, they could already feel its terrifying malevolent aura.
The two stopped.
Qin Feng knew nothing about the Blood Sea, but the Overlord Immortal Emperor certainly did, though he had lost that part of his memory.
Qin Feng looked at Zhilan and asked, "How could there be such terrifying malevolent energy where they are?"
Zhilan looked at Qin Feng with some surprise. "You don't even know that's the Sea of Blood?"
Although somewhat surprised, she patiently told Qin Feng about the legend of the Blood Sea.
The Blood Sea was not originally blood red. Legend has it that it was stained red by the blood of fallen immortals and demons after a fierce battle between immortals and demons in ancient times.
It is said that after that great war between immortals and demons, the Xuan Tian Immortal Realm, which was originally a high-level realm, was directly demoted to a mid-level realm.
This resulted in the path from Immortal Emperor Realm to Heavenly Emperor Realm being cut off!
Since then, no Heavenly Emperor Realm has ever appeared in the Xuan Tian Immortal Realm.
After listening to Zhilan's story, Qin Feng asked curiously, "A war between immortals and demons? Was it between the demon race and the immortal race?"
Zhilan was stunned for a moment, speechless. "How can you be so ignorant?"
"What immortal race is there?"
"The so-called immortals and demons are cultivators and demons!"
Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "I see!"
"By the way, where do those demons come from?"
"The Demon Realm?"
Zhilan looked at Qin Feng with some surprise. "You actually know about the Demon Realm? It seems you're not as ignorant as I thought!"
"But you're wrong. It's not the Demon Realm, but the Holy Demon Realm, which belongs to a super realm!"
