You, a druid, go to practice Taoism?.

"Hahaha, what a magnificent Kunpeng bloodline!"

Qi Ping controlled his thousands of feet long Kunpeng body, shuttling back and forth between heaven and earth.

Under the ultimate profound meaning of the Peng body, a thousand miles is but a moment, and in the blink of an eye, one arrives at the highest heavens.

He could wield Yin-Yang supernatural powers with ease, and every move he made was favored by the wind element.

At this moment, he truly became the darling of heaven and earth.

Mythical beasts, divine beasts, are born sacred beasts that are born to receive blessings from heaven and earth.

At this moment, Qi Ping truly felt the immense advantage of being a divine beast. With every breath and gesture, he possessed powerful divine abilities that others could only dream of.

Because switching from Kunpeng form to human form requires a lot of energy, Qi Ping did not choose to switch to human form.

He decided to exist in the form of a Kunpeng for a very long time to come, until he obtained enough Mahayana cultivation techniques.

Or rather, he was also considering refining the Druid's Beast King true form, the Kunpeng form, into his second clone, sharing the soul, so that the clone could advance to the eighth rank in the Kunpeng form.

After soaring for quite some time in the high sky, Qi Ping swooped down and landed steadily in front of the bald golden crow.

"Brother Jin, I am very grateful for your help in enabling me to have this opportunity."

Qi Ping used the wings of his roc body to bow in front of him, expressing his sincere gratitude.

Although there was scheming and exchange of benefits involved, Qi Ping didn't find anything wrong with it. Of course, you have to pay a price to get something. At least the eighth-order resentment tea he obtained on this trip was genuine, and the blood essence inheritance of the Kunpeng Ancestral Beast was also genuine.

"Good heavens, you really are Brother Qi! How did you do that? How did you transform into a Kunpeng?"

Upon hearing Qi Ping's words, the bald-headed Golden Crow's expression of shock deepened:

"Even I can't be sure if you are a real Kunpeng or a fake one? If I hadn't met you before, I would never have been able to tell that you are a human. Now, how are you any different from a real Kunpeng?"

As the bald-headed Golden Crow spoke, its form changed, instantly transforming into a gigantic Golden Crow exceeding ten thousand feet in length.

"Since you've also transformed into a divine beast, I won't transform into human form anymore. Being confined in such a small body is more uncomfortable than being in prison. My original form is much more comfortable," the bald golden crow said with a sigh.

The moment the bald Golden Crow revealed its true form, the golden-red solar fire blazed fiercely throughout the entire space, and the terrifying pressure caused Qi Ping's Kunpeng body to shiver.

"What terrifying bloodline power!" Qi Ping thought in shock.

Compared to the human body, this Kunpeng body with the bloodline of the eighth rank lower grade is more able to truly feel the terrifying pressure from the eighth rank golden crow in front of it.

"This is absolutely far beyond the bloodline power of the early stage of the eighth rank!" Qi Ping was extremely shocked. The powerful pressure made him almost speechless, and it seemed that every pore of his body was flashing with a strong sense of crisis.

Fortunately, after a while, the bald golden crow seemed to realize that its aura was affecting Qi Ping, so it quickly suppressed its aura.

Qi Ping finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sorry, Brother Qi, I forgot to conceal my aura for a moment. By the way, you still haven't told me how you transformed into a Kunpeng?"

"Well, I need to be able to speak first!" Qi Ping rolled his eyes at the golden crow in front of him before explaining:

"This is an innate supernatural ability of my physique. I can comprehend the power of a demon beast's bloodline and then transform into a real demon beast. It is a kind of bloodline power that is compatible with demon beasts."

"However, this transformation can only be done once, and after transforming into a demon beast, it is very difficult and consumes a lot of energy to transform back into human form. Since there are currently no cultivation techniques in the Star Sea World to break through to the Mahayana stage, I want to break through to the eighth rank in my demon beast form first. This way, my chances of obtaining a Mahayana stage cultivation technique will be much higher."

Qi Ping didn't hide anything from this, nor was there much need to. For the Forest Sea Demon Realm, there were many bloodline supernatural abilities far more powerful than this. In a real fight, even the Kunpeng Ancestral Beast might not be able to win, let alone someone like him.

Even more importantly, Qi Ping wanted to ask the bald Golden Crow for advice on his experience and insights in breaking through to the eighth-tier demon beast.

Breaking through to the eighth rank for a spirit beast is just as difficult as breaking through to the Mahayana stage for a human. In particular, the bloodline power must have the potential to break through to the eighth rank; otherwise, forcing a breakthrough will undoubtedly lead to death.

However, thanks to the bloodline inheritance of the Kunpeng Ancestral Beast, Qi Ping's first transformation into the true form of the Beast King was with an eighth-grade low-level bloodline, so the difficulty of breaking through to the eighth grade will be much lower.

However, he still knows very little about the cultivation of demonic beasts, so the more he learns, the more confident he will be.

"I see, this road is indeed feasible!" Bald Golden Crow suddenly realized.

"Speaking of which, Brother Jin, what exactly happened just now? After I entered that altar space, there were endless strange creatures inside. If I hadn't gotten used to your Mahayana stage pressure and the power of refining that eighth-order Vengeful Tea, I probably would have really been killed inside. Those things inside are extremely bizarre."

"That's the power of the Heavenly Evil!" The bald Golden Crow's expression darkened, becoming extremely serious.

"Brother Qi, it's not that I'm trying to trick you, but we have no other choice."

"Before you, we sent more than one seventh-tier demon beast from the demon realm, including the strongest geniuses of the current generation from powerful divine beast groups such as True Dragon, Black Tortoise, and Heavenly Phoenix. They were invincible among their peers in the seventh tier of combat power, but without exception, they all failed. Even when we sent a batch at a time, it was the same. In the end, they all turned into nourishment for the creatures in the altar."

"Fortunately, your appearance has given us hope again. Within your seventh rank, you possess power that countless living beings cannot match. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to slaughter that demon race. But that is not enough. Only when you successfully absorb the eighth-rank Resentful Tea will you truly have the qualifications to venture into the center of the altar!"

"Fortunately, your power did not disappoint us. You truly deserve to be the one who brought the Star Sea World from ruin to revival!"

The bald-headed Golden Crow, a renowned and powerful demon, unusually raised a few feathers burning with the true fire of the sun to express his admiration for Qi Ping.

"Then why don't you just send in beings at the Mahayana stage?" Qi Ping retorted. If seventh-tier demonic beasts can't kill them, why not just send eighth-tier ones?

Although those beings within the altar space are difficult to kill, as long as an eighth-tier demon beast takes action, wiping them all out should not be too much of a problem.

However, upon hearing this, the bald-headed Golden Crow shook his head with a wry smile:
"No, at this stage of Tianxie, even an eighth-order being cannot enter. If they force their way in, the Tianxie altar will detonate and they will escape. That would only bring about a result we don't want to face. We spent a lot of effort to seal it in this location."

"What exactly is this Heavenly Evil? Why did I never see any records about it when I was in the Star Sea World?"

Thinking of that figure that looked so much like Old Man Zhou, Qi Ping felt a little uneasy.

"Sigh." The bald Golden Crow sighed, "The Heavenly Evil is not some kind of living being, but one of the evil calamities in the universe!"

"Tianxie, as one of them, is a malignant tumor that parasitizes the world. They seem to be able to reflect completely related worlds through some mysterious means. Once a world is targeted by Tianxie, it will unleash a terrifying catastrophe in a very short time."

"It can conjure billions of life seeds smaller than dust, scattering them in every corner of the world. These life seeds then secretly grow within the bodies of various creatures, manipulating them to devour and kill to grow rapidly!"

"These methods are too subtle; I can't even completely rule them out. Once Tianxie's billions of clones grow to a certain extent, they will spread at an explosive speed, causing an unpredictable super catastrophe to all living beings in the world!"

"As a result, the losses are unpredictable, because Tianxie, the Forest Sea Demon Realm has already lost more than one race, including the Xuanwu clan, leaving only some mixed-blood demon beasts with weak bloodlines."

"There is only one chance to deal with the Heavenly Evils: after they have devoured enough fortune, bloodline, and soul, they will uncontrollably give birth to the most powerful individual, powerful enough for us to gather the power of the entire world and completely shatter the Heavenly Evils!"

"However, at the last moment, it self-destructed and escaped. Millions of years later, it was reborn, and an unstoppable catastrophe was unleashed once again. Fortunately, the old tortoise calculated the weakness of this Heavenly Evil and finally sealed it in the altar state, which is what you just saw. You know what happened after that."

At this point, the bald-headed Golden Crow's eyes were filled with helplessness and sadness, but also a hint of relief.

According to the old tortoise, this Heavenly Evil should have no chance to cause trouble in the Forest Sea Demon Realm.

"How could such a terrifying existence exist?" Qi Ping was filled with shock after hearing this.

The terrifying creatures that exist in this universe are far beyond his comprehension and imagination.

"Yes, how could such a terrifying life form exist?" The bald Golden Crow sighed helplessly.

"Let's not talk about that. Consider this my gift to you. If you encounter any difficulties in Chaos City, you can ask that white-feathered bird for help, if it's still alive."

After speaking, the bald-headed Golden Crow handed a feather, imbued with its own essence and will, to Qi Ping.

"Thank you very much, Brother Jin. But what kind of place is this Chaos City?" Qi Ping put away the feather, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"You don't know about the City of Chaos?" This time, it was the bald Golden Crow's turn to show surprise.

"I don't know!" Qi Ping nodded firmly.

"Then how dare you leave the world of ordered beings?"

"Do I have a choice?" Qi Ping sighed helplessly.

“That makes sense.” Bald Golden Crow recalled the appearance of the Star Sea World over the years and could understand it. He just didn’t expect that the Star Sea World had even lost the data on the Chaos City.

"Since you're looking for a Mahayana cultivation technique, you'll definitely have to go to the City of Chaos. Let me put it this way:"

"The Chaos City is the closest outpost to us within our Xuanxian Universe. It is a gathering place for all kinds of powerful beings and creatures from the Xuanxian Universe. There, the Void Refining stage is just the beginning, while the Integration and Mahayana stages are the mainstream. Many powerful beings cultivate and trade there. However, the main function of the Chaos City is not trading, but to defend against calamities like the Heavenly Evil and other creatures that attempt to invade the Xuanxian Universe!"

"Because beyond that world, there exists something far more terrifying than Tianxie!"

"What?" Upon hearing this, Qi Ping's heart was suddenly filled with shock and disbelief!
One was that he hadn't expected to find what he was looking for so long, but it came to him so easily. He might have found the place where he could obtain the Mahayana stage cultivation technique, and there he would surely be able to obtain many things and information that he wanted.

Perhaps he wants to build a multi-dimensional trade network, taking advantage of the world factory advantage of the Upper Star Sea world. A place like Chaos City might be the best entry point.

Another thing Qi Ping didn't expect was that the place he was in was actually in the Xuan Tian Universe region, and that there were even more terrifying enemies and disasters outside this world!
"I was just as shocked when I first heard this news. We usually don't reveal this information to demonic beasts below the seventh rank. When I had just reached the late stage of the seventh rank, I went on an adventure to the Chaos City with the elders of the Golden Crow clan."

"There, you can choose to trade and cultivate, or you can choose to go to the battlefield of demons and monsters. As long as you kill other threatening cosmic beings and gain enough merit and contribution, you can exchange them for all kinds of rare items in the Chaos City. Maybe the cultivation method you want is among them. In fact, that is the real battlefield for Mahayana stage cultivators and Integration stage cultivators. There you can achieve the fastest growth rate."

"However, that place is too dangerous. Even beings at the Integration Stage or even the Great Ascension Stage have a very high probability of dying there, so not everyone is willing to continue taking the risk."

"If too many Mahayana cultivators in a world perish, their own world will also be severely damaged. As for me now, I'm past the age of taking risks. It's difficult to advance further. It's better to just protect my home, the Forest Sea Demon Realm. But for you, the Chaos City might be a good opportunity. By the way, there, you might be able to find fragments of memories left behind by the Star Sea World. You'll be very shocked!"

Chaos City, outpost battlefield, exchangeable items, high mortality rate, fragments of memories from the Star Sea World… Upon hearing this, Qi Ping’s shock was beyond words.

"The City of Chaos? It seems our next destination is clear!"

Qi Ping felt that he had made the right decision to come out; otherwise, if he had stayed in the Star Sea World, he really wouldn't know how he would have been able to obtain this kind of information.

Next, Qi Ping pressed the bald Golden Crow for more information about the City of Chaos and how to get there.

At this moment, his journey through the universe finally had a very clear direction.

Moreover, this way, his cosmic trade route and resource acquisition route seem to have a clear and definite goal, which makes things much simpler.

Thinking of this, Qi Ping felt a surge of excitement in his heart! (End of Chapter)
