After arriving in the mid-sized world of the Red Spirit Realm, Su Ping followed the Purple-haired Desert Wolf in flight for some time.
Accompanied by ripples that spread out around the space before him.
Su Ping’s Primordial Spirit Avatar entered into a secret realm space composed of multiple Grotto Heavens, similar to the one at Chi Yuan’s main peak.
Within this Grotto Heaven space, Su Ping discovered dozens of pavilions, towers, and fortresses, all in architectural styles indicative of different cultures and wisdom civilizations.
These distinctively styled architectural complexes should have been incongruous.
Yet within this secret realm, they harmonized well with the environment.
And there must have been Formation nodes arranged inside.
Each one made Su Ping’s Primordial Spirit Avatar sense an impending crisis!
"Are the Arrays in this secret realm also arranged by the master of this place?"
Su Ping’s Primordial Spirit Avatar looked around and asked at an undiminished pace.
The Purple-haired Desert Wolf hesitated before responding disdainfully:
"These were not arranged by the king, but by an Unparalleled Genius of our clan."
Upon saying this, the Purple-haired Desert Wolf appeared somewhat proud, but then, thinking of something, did not continue.
Instead, it looked ahead and said:
"Here we are. That’s the palace where the king receives guests."
"I hope your answer will not disappoint the king, otherwise..."
At this point, the Purple-haired Desert Wolf noticed that the man before it radiated not a trace of negative emotions, and with some irritation, decided to stop speaking and moved to one side.
Su Ping sincerely smiled at the Purple-haired Desert Wolf who had led the way and thanked him.
Then he proceeded into the palace where the Red Spirit King resided.
Su Ping had sensed upon stepping into the secret realm that it was much as he had guessed.
For cultivation and Array arranging considerations, these important figures’ core area was also the location of the core Earth Veins of this mid-sized world!
Su Ping made ready to use them.
What remained was a bit of curiosity.
Curiosity about those stronger than those who had achieved Harmonization.
Unfortunately, Su Ping was somewhat disappointed the moment he met the other party.
The other had not come in person to receive visitors.
Instead, an Avatar was sent.
And it seemed that the Avatar had a Cultivation realm similar to his own.
Such a Returning to Void Realm Avatar must be as insignificant to the Mahayana Realm Desert Wolf King as one of the branches he had fashioned from the Golden Leaf Bodhi Tree.
Moreover, as soon as they met, Su Ping’s Divine Thought could tell that the other party was in various ways somewhat imbalanced.
It felt as if the Avatar had been hastily crafted, so the Red Spirit King’s consciousness had not yet had time to adjust well to this Avatar shell.
What is this, do they think that because I am an Avatar, to save face they should only use an Avatar of the same realm?
The Red Spirit King got straight to the point upon meeting and inquired what great secret Su Ping wished to disclose.
Su Ping, with his hands clasped behind his back, looked at the Desert Wolf’s Avatar seated on the gleaming golden throne on the platform.
Su Ping slowly began to speak:
"The secret I wish to convey to your clan... is related to the Dark Calamity and the Abyss."
When he heard about the Dark Calamity, the Red Spirit King didn’t take much notice, as a high-ranking combatant of the Demon Alliance, it too was privy to some information that the Heavenly Demon had returned with.
But... the mention of the Abyss!
This high-ranking member of the Desert Wolf clan was jolted in spirit, and even the Red Spirit King, concealed deep within the multiple Grotto Heavens, abruptly opened hundreds of its demonic blood eyes.
While the other awaited with bated ears,
after a pause—actually timed to open the Abyss Challenge Scroll and select the highest difficulty available—Su Ping continued with surprising... no, shocking words:
"The secret I have to tell you is..."
"The Abyss has set its sights on you."
Su Ping spoke with utter calmness.
The other side’s Red Spirit King Avatar, however, swelled up in an instant, its wolf body taking up nearly the entire space of the grand hall in front of Su Ping.
It glared at Su Ping’s Primordial Spirit Avatar angrily.
"Do not doubt the authenticity of this secret."
"The sound of time and space being torn apart?"
"The Abyss is descending upon this space-time."
These words from Su Ping actually stunned the enraged Red Spirit King Avatar for a moment.
Almost immediately, the emergence of a space-time rift made the Red Spirit King realize that this irksome talker was not engaging in alarmist talk!
But there was just too much strangeness within it all.
It made the Red Spirit King want to devour Su Ping, but its rationality was stopping it from actually doing so.
In the blink of an eye, the Desert Wolf clan came up with a plan, preparing to use Divine Skills to seal this Primordial Spirit Avatar, then resolve the current crisis before having a proper talk with him.
If the situation was grave, the Red Spirit King might even invite the Clan Leader and the Old Priest of the Desert Wolf clan to come and discuss countermeasures.
In just that split second,
The Red Spirit King, who was about to use a Divine Skill, suddenly discovered that Su Ping’s Primordial Spirit Avatar had vanished without a trace.
"How could it be possible for a Divine Skill to disappear without a trace without my main body noticing!"
"With so many Formations and prohibitions in the Red Spirit Realm, even a Heavenly Demon who takes action should leave some sign!"
As the Red Spirit King was shocked and enraged,
Su Ping’s Primordial Spirit Avatar had, after delivering the gift, directly chosen to accept the invitation and enter the Pot Cave Heaven.
Because he was an invitee,
even the Pot Cave Heaven itself didn’t manifest that vulnerability.
To outsiders, it appeared as a sudden, unheralded disappearance!
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"It must be some special Illusion Technique or a Divine Skill that hides one’s presence and traces!"
The Red Spirit King roared lowly, its body emitting astonishing waves of heat that swept all around.
But within the range of the heat wave, no abnormalities were found!
The Red Spirit King wanted to take further action, but suddenly felt a chill in its heart.
