Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

In the sea of ​​sand, Yun Yudie glanced at the huge crater created by Lu Chen's explosion, then looked into the distance. After not sensing the aura of Wuya Immortal Venerable, she knew that Wuya Immortal Venerable must have escaped.

She had no intention of pursuing Immortal Venerable Wuya. After all, Immortal Venerable Wuya had comprehended the Great Dao of Time and Space, and he could mobilize the power of space. If he wanted to escape, he could directly mobilize the power of space to traverse space, and she would most likely not be able to catch up.

Yun Yudie then returned to Xuan Yue Palace.

She had just returned to her palace when Lu Chen's celestial body appeared in the main hall.

Lu Chen glanced at him and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that Master actually has an immortal body."

Yun Yudie ignored Lu Chen's words and said instead, "He has escaped. When he returns to Tianhua Palace, he will likely bring more Immortal Venerables with him. You should think carefully about how to deal with this next."

If there is only one Immortal Venerable, she can handle it by herself, but if there are several more Immortal Venerables, or even bring powerful magic weapons, she definitely cannot withstand it alone.

Lu Chen said, "What are you afraid of? He..."

Before Lu Chen could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a tightness in his heart, and a nameless panic surged into his heart. This feeling made him very uncomfortable, as if he were being targeted by some great enemy.

Lu Chen suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of the Sunset Mountains. The feeling was coming from the Sunset Mountains. Could it be that the Tianhua Palace had sent an even stronger Immortal Venerable?

This feeling wasn't just felt by Lu Chen; Yun Yudie also sensed it. Her gaze turned towards the direction of the Sunset Mountains, and she released her divine sense to investigate what had happened there.

However, after she released her divine sense, she found nothing; the Sunset Mountains were calm and peaceful.

Lu Chen then turned to look at Yun Yudie, "You felt it too?"

Yun Yudie withdrew her divine sense and hummed in agreement.

Lu Chen muttered to himself, "It's a bit strange. There's no aura at all, yet it can instill fear in people. What exactly is inside the Sunset Mountains?"

If a powerful figure appeared in the Sunset Mountains and released their aura, it would be normal for people to panic. However, the feeling of panic instantly enveloped Lu Chen's heart, as if a great calamity was about to befall him. Most importantly, he did not sense any powerful figure's aura.

This seems rather strange.

Lu Chen looked at Yun Yudie and asked, "Did you sense anything?"

Yun Yudie replied with a solemn expression, "No."

She only sensed danger within the Sunset Mountains through intuition, but after probing with her divine sense, she found nothing unusual. Of course, it's also possible that the anomaly originated from deeper within the Sunset Mountains.

After all, the Sunset Mountains are so vast that even her divine sense cannot completely cover them.

Lu Chen thought for a moment, then said, "Why don't we go take a look?"

At this point, Lu Chen was about to use the Spirit Domain Transcending Array. Seeing this, Yun Yudie sent her immortal power to Lu Chen before he could even speak.

The next moment, the Spirit Realm Transcending Array was activated, and the two of them disappeared from the main hall. When they reappeared, they were already above the Sunset Mountains.

The Sunset Mountains are vast, and many dangerous areas lie within them, making it impossible even for a Celestial Venerable to fully explore them with their divine sense. Lu Chen only teleported to the edge of the Sunset Mountains and did not venture deep into them.

After the two arrived high in the sky above the Sunset Mountains, they looked deeper into the mountains. At this time, the Sunset Mountains were full of life, with birds singing and flowers blooming, and there was nothing wrong with them at all.

However, Lu Chen and Yun Yudie believed that their perceptions were correct. If it were just one person having a misperception, that would be understandable, but it was impossible for both of them to have the same misperception at the same time. There must be something strange and unusual in the Sunset Mountains, but they just couldn't perceive it.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Chen said to Yun Yudie, "Let's go back. This place is really strange."

As they spoke, Lu Chen set up the Spirit Domain Transcending Array again, and then they instantly returned to the Xuan Yue Palace.

Back at the Xuan Yue Palace, Lu Chen asked Yun Yudie, "What do you think that was just now?"

Yun Yudie did not answer immediately. A thoughtful look appeared on her cold, jade-like face. After a while, Yun Yudie finally spoke, "Perhaps a powerful figure from the desolate Sunset Mountains has emerged."

The Sunset Mountains contain many forbidden lands that even immortals dare not easily set foot in. What lies within these forbidden lands remains unknown to this day, but there has always been a suspicion that some self-proclaimed ancient immortals exist within them.

Of course, whether this is true or not, no one knows, since no one has verified it.

Lu Chen thought for a moment. The fact that the thing in Sunset Mountain Range could make him feel a sense of crisis without him releasing his aura proved that it would definitely have some impact on him in the future. He had to keep a close eye on Sunset Mountain Range at all times.

……

half year later.

Tianhua Hall.

The Star River Immortal Venerable sat on the throne made of immortal gold directly above the Star River Palace, discussing recent events with the other Immortal Venerables.

At this moment, a Celestial Venerable said, "I believe that immortals from other realms have also discovered this."

Another immortal said, "This is somewhat similar to the previous situation of the Great Dao of Propagation, perhaps it is only temporary."

Recently, the immortals have gradually discovered that the path they follow is being eroded by some strange force, and the power of the path they can mobilize is becoming less and less. Almost all immortals, whether immortals or ordinary immortals, have experienced a significant decline in strength.

This plunged all the immortals in the Southern Region into panic. The current situation was as if the end of the Dharma era was about to arrive. Although they had not experienced the so-called end of the Dharma era, people could see some records about the end of the Dharma era in some ancient historical records.

Listening to the discussions among the immortals in the main hall, Immortal Venerable Xinghe fell into deep thought. His cultivation had reached the peak of the immortal realm, and he had gone further on the path he cultivated. Therefore, he was able to more clearly feel the strange corrosive power on the path he cultivated.

At this moment, another Immortal Venerable said, "I think what Immortal Venerable Tianfeng said makes sense. Didn't the Great Dao of Procreation also have problems for a period of time in the past? In the end, it returned to normal. This should only be temporary."

After the problem with the Great Dao of Reproduction occurred, it suddenly became extremely difficult for the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm to reproduce. This caused great panic among all forces in the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm, and the major immortal sects began to devote resources to cultivating mortals in order to replenish the number of disciples.

However, just a few decades ago, the Great Dao of Procreation in the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm had already returned to normal, so some Immortal Venerables speculated that this situation was likely only temporary and might return to normal after a while.

Of course, this "some time" could be hundreds of years, or it could be billions of years, after all, the issue of the Great Dao of Reproduction has persisted for billions of years. (End of Chapter)
