100-year-old foundation building, starting from the maximum level of understanding

Boom!
The surging ripples spread.

The seven-story pagoda that the black-haired man had summoned exploded in mid-air.

Immediately afterwards, his entire body, following the seven-story pagoda, suddenly disintegrated in mid-air.

Large amounts of immortal blood were spilled.

The black-haired man was instantly killed, both physically and mentally.

This scene left Fairy Haiyue and Zhou Ping completely stunned.

They were utterly terrified; they never imagined this person could be so vicious.

In just a few moves, Kong Ge killed the black-haired man.

Does he really not care about their identities at all?
Seeing Ji Haoyuan's gaze turn towards them.

For a moment, Fairy Haiyue and Zhou Ping felt as if they were being targeted by a ferocious prehistoric beast, making the hairs on their bodies stand on end.

escape!
The thought arose irresistibly in both of their minds.

In fact, that's exactly what they did.

Just kidding, even a half-immortal treasure can be shattered with bare hands.

Such a formidable person is far beyond their ability to contend with.

The only possible outcome for those who remain is the same as the black-haired man; there is probably no other possibility.

"Where to escape?"

Seeing that Fairy Haiyue and Zhou Ping turned to run away, Ji Haoyuan immediately clenched his fist.

Suddenly, an extremely dazzling golden light burst forth from between his fingers.

There was a bang.

It looked like a comet falling.

A large cloud of blood mist suddenly rose from the bodies of Fairy Haiyue and Zhou Ping, who were fleeing rapidly forward.

Fortunately, Ji Haoyuan did not have much intention to kill the two of them.

Just now, when the black-haired man proposed to kill everyone, these two people stopped him.

Although they also had their own selfish motives and considerations about their own situation.

But in the end, these two were not as bad as the black-haired man.

This is also the main reason why Ji Haoyuan only injured them and did not actually kill them.

Soon, news of the incident that occurred in Tianji Garden spread throughout countless immortal cities in the surrounding area.

In an instant, countless people were in an uproar and shocked.

No one expected that such a change would occur during the opening of Tianji Garden.

Not only was an immortal mixed in, but that immortal was also incredibly audacious, directly killing the black-haired man from the Divine Heaven Palace after leaving the Heavenly Pole Garden.

This is simply a provocation against the three major traditions of Taoism.

Especially the Divine Palace.

Not long after, a True Immortal from the Divine Heaven Palace stationed nearby issued a decree ordering everyone to investigate and search for the person's whereabouts.

Once discovered, kill on the spot.

They even offered an extremely high reward for this.

One of the most enticing aspects is that, regardless of your background or cultivation level, as long as you can provide clues about that person, you may be recruited as an outer disciple by their Divine Heaven Palace.

If they can capture him alive, or even kill him, they can directly join the formal ranks of their Divine Heaven Palace.

This is one of the strongest religious traditions in their upper realm.

Normally, ordinary people are not even qualified to join.

But now, Ji Haoyuan's actions have given many people an opportunity.

Even just entering its outer perimeter is an immense fortune that many people can only dream of.

In an instant, all cultivators, and even immortals, who aspired to join the Divine Heaven Palace began to quickly investigate and search for the whereabouts of Ji Haoyuan's primordial spirit avatar.

Inside a restaurant called Hongyu Immortal City.

Ji Haoyuan's primordial spirit clone, whose appearance had already changed, frowned slightly as he listened to the news about him being told by the people around him.

It seems I underestimated the impact of this matter.

Especially the Divine Heaven Palace, such a great religious sect, has a significant influence in this upper realm.

"Wang!"

Suddenly, a loud bark rang out throughout the restaurant.

This has drawn attention from many people.

Although guests are not prohibited from bringing their spirit pets into this Immortal City Restaurant.

However, it is relatively rare for such a spirit pet to make sounds that affect the behavior of others.

"it's him!"

Suddenly, behind a large dog with black and white stripes, a young man pointed excitedly in the direction where Ji Haoyuan was.

Beside him were several immortals dressed in the robes of the Divine Heaven Palace.

This immediately surprised everyone.

what's the situation?
How could a dignified immortal from the Divine Heaven Palace suddenly descend upon a tavern beneath immortals like theirs?

But soon, everyone noticed something was amiss.

Because those immortals from the Divine Heaven Palace sealed off the void within a radius of hundreds of miles almost immediately.

Several massive logs, like wooden stakes, were driven deep into the surrounding void, instantly making the void incredibly solid.

Even immortals would find it extremely difficult to break through.

At the same time, the immortals instantly locked their auras onto Ji Haoyuan, making it impossible for him to leave.

"Could it be that he is...?"

Some quick-witted people immediately understood what was going on.

This caused their expressions to change slightly.

Ji Haoyuan's face immediately darkened.

If he remembered correctly, the person who had just pointed out his identity with the big dog was a rogue cultivator who had entered the Heavenly Extreme Garden with him that day.

You have to understand, Ji Haoyuan essentially saved all of them from what happened that day.

If it weren't for him, those people, even if they didn't die, would inevitably have had a large amount of treasures and their gains in the Heavenly Pole Garden plundered by the people of the three major sects.

However, now, those who are chasing after him with their big dogs are not grateful for what he did back then.

In order to curry favor and join the Divine Palace, the other party actually stepped forward to help the "culprit" who had tried to persecute them that day, so as to search for and deal with them.

How is this any different from ingratitude?
In an instant, a chilling killing intent flashed in Ji Haoyuan's eyes.

However, those immortals from the Divine Palace were even more direct.

One of the men, who appeared to be the leader and had a water-flowing rune mark on his forehead, suddenly produced a light blue ring in his palm.

Boom!
The ring shot out instantly, heading straight for Ji Haoyuan.

In an instant, countless ripples of Dao principles suddenly spread out from the void.

A terrifying aura enveloped the entire restaurant.

This caused a stir of horror among everyone in the restaurant.

What is he trying to do?

Are you planning to kill them all indiscriminately as well?
Isn't this too domineering and unreasonable?
boom!
In an instant, many people in the restaurant were enveloped in a celestial-level aura, which they used to protect themselves.

Ji Haoyuan was also caught off guard.

The people of the Divine Heaven Palace act with such unbridled recklessness, completely disregarding whether their actions will harm the innocent.

This made the murderous intent in his heart surge even more fiercely.

There was a bang.

Suddenly, a pillar of fire shot up from above his head.

In the blink of an eye, the pillar of fire transformed into a fire phoenix in the air.

The fire phoenix let out a loud, long cry.

Accompanied by bursts of brilliant crimson light, a loud thud was heard.

The wooden stakes used to seal off the surrounding void suddenly trembled.

Its surface is suddenly covered with numerous cracks.

This caused the expressions of several immortals from the Divine Heaven Palace to change.

Before they could react, the fire phoenix instantly transformed into a crimson spear wreathed in endless flame runes. With a hissing sound...

The flaming spear suddenly unleashed an endless barrage of Daoist runes, densely packed together.

It actually pierced a huge hole directly in the sealed void.

At the same time, Ji Haoyuan's figure immediately transformed into a streak of light, bursting out from the pierced hole and instantly flying towards the sky.

"Chase!"

Upon seeing Ji Haoyuan leave the restaurant, all the immortals from the Divine Heaven Palace, as well as the cultivator with the large dog, chased after him.

This immediately relieved the tense group of cultivators in the restaurant.

"Thank goodness, they didn't start a fight here."

One of the drinkers spoke up with a look of relief.

"Don't you guys think that the person being chased by the Divine Heaven Palace actually intentionally left this restaurant we're in?"

Someone suddenly spoke up.

Hearing his words, the others present were not fools.

They carefully recalled what had just happened and realized that it seemed to be true.

This caused many people to look at it with surprise.

The person being chased by the Divine Heaven Palace seems to have deliberately left because he didn't want the battle to affect them.

"Sigh, I hope he can escape the pursuit of the Divine Heaven Palace."

Someone couldn't help but sigh, but was quickly silenced by someone else covering their mouth.

"Please, even if you have this thought, don't say it out loud. Do you really think those people from the Divine Heaven Palace are some kind of saints who don't value their lives?"

at the same time.

Beyond the sky.

This is a vast space, as boundless as the starry sky below.

At this moment, Ji Haoyuan stood there, looking at the several immortals from the Divine Heaven Palace chasing after him, as well as the cultivator with the large dog, and said calmly:
"I never expected that no matter where I go, I'll always find sycophants."

His words caused some misunderstanding among those nearby.

But I roughly understood the meaning behind his words.

The cultivator with the large dog immediately showed a hint of anger in his eyes and couldn't help but say:

"You scoundrel, you dared to kill the seniors of the Divine Heaven Palace. Your crime is unforgivable. I advise you to surrender obediently. If you do so, the seniors of the Divine Heaven Palace may give you a quick death."

Otherwise, even if you wanted to die then, it probably wouldn't be so easy.

Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyuan's face immediately turned cold.

He stared at the monk with the large dog and said coldly:

"Do you think that by fawning over the Divine Palace like that, the Divine Palace will actually take you seriously?"

In their eyes, you're nothing more than an ant that can be used.

Why waste so much breath talking to him?
"Let's work together and take down this thief first!"

The man in the lead, who had a water-flow rune mark between his eyebrows, spoke in a cold voice.

The next moment, the light blue ring that he had previously summoned shot out again.

In an instant, terrifying Dao patterns of rules spread out.

The surrounding void instantly transformed into a swamp, and countless blue, rule-based ropes, like great dragons, rapidly coiled around Ji Haoyuan, attempting to bind him.

Seeing this, the others did not hesitate any longer and immediately joined forces.

In the blink of an eye, this world was filled with boundless celestial light.

Terrifying Dao patterns surged wave after wave, like a continuous tsunami, crashing towards Ji Haoyuan.

"Humph!"

Faced with this scene, Ji Haoyuan snorted coldly.

He showed no intention of avoiding it.

Just as people expected, the reason he was in such a hurry to leave was that he didn't want to affect unrelated people because of himself.

Now that they were in this deserted outer space, he naturally wouldn't hold back anymore.

Boom!
Ripples spread across the void.

At that moment, an extremely dazzling golden light suddenly bloomed on Ji Haoyuan's fist.

Then there was a loud bang.

The fist imprint, shimmering with golden light, had pierced through the boundless water formed by the azure ring, carving a huge pit in its center.

A surge of pure yang energy permeated the area, preventing the vast expanse of water from closing up again.

"what?"

The man in the lead's expression changed slightly.

The next instant, before he could react, a terrifying blade of light surged from Ji Haoyuan's palm.

Its surface was shrouded in bursts of crimson smoke.

Chi!
As he unleashed that blade of light, fire dragons and the phantom of a crimson tiger instantly appeared in the void.

The dragon and tiger combine to unleash boundless, regular patterns, like a divine chain.

Brush it.

At that moment, all the water in the sky evaporated.

Immediately afterwards, a flash of crimson light appeared on the blade.

The monk with the large dog immediately had his head fall off his neck.

His eyes still seemed to hold a lingering sense of astonishment and disbelief.

Yes.

That one strike had severed all his life force.

Along with his primordial spirit, he vanished into the void.

"Wang!"

Upon seeing this, the large dog with black and white markings immediately let out a loud bark.

Its eyes held the swirling energy of Yin and Yang, and its entire body seemed poised to dissolve and flee this place.

How could Ji Haoyuan let such a dog with a special nose escape?

Almost at the same time, his second strike came down.

The crimson clouds surged.

The blade flashed like a ribbon of silk.

In just a moment, they were right in front of the big dog.

The big dog was horrified.

Upon seeing this, the leading man on its side, along with the other immortals, immediately roared in anger.

"How brave!"

As the words were spoken, the light blue ring once again radiated endless blue light.

Circles of rules, like divine chains, spread out and instantly wrapped around Ji Haoyuan's sword light.

At the same time, the attacks from the other immortals transformed into a waterfall, shimmering with boundless Daoist patterns in the air, and actually pierced through Ji Haoyuan's body.

This scene startled the leading man and the other immortals.

Because that last move was far too easy.

Judging from the strength Ji Haoyuan just displayed, he shouldn't have been defeated so easily.

The same is true.

Just as they were stunned, Ji Haoyuan suddenly appeared from the other side.

Immediately afterward, terrifying lightning flashed across the sky.

Bolts of lightning, imbued with rules and order, crashed down upon them all.

The large black and white dog was the first to be unable to withstand the onslaught; its entire body was instantly engulfed by endless lightning and turned into a wisp of green smoke.

Next came the leading man, and the others.

The celestial light emanating from his body suddenly dimmed and went out.

Their flesh, blood, and souls, along with everything else, began to dissolve. (End of Chapter)
