Xiao Chou put on his Azure Battle Arhat Mask, and his aura suddenly soared dramatically. Then, he smashed his staff down toward the charging Ancient Moon Emperor.

Boom!

As the sword and silver staff collided, a spherical shaped vacuum formed. Then, it exploded with a loud rumble.

This explosion whipped up fierce winds and caused heaven and earth to tremble.

Xiao Chou was sent stumbling back dozens of feet, and the Ancient Moon Emperor was also pushed back a few steps.

The Ancient Moon Emperor was astonished by the monkey’s strength. It didn’t expect for the monkey to be so evenly matched with it.

“Come again!”

It roared loudly and continued to lunge at Xiao Chou.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Ancient Moon Emperor and Xiao Chou were locked in an intense battle in the sky. Vital energy raged around them and the sounds of their collisions reverberated over two kilometers into the distance.

The powerful beings of Green Island were all stunned as they watched the battle raging on in the sky. They didn’t expect for this monkey—who was not even of the Soul Formation Stage—to be on such equal footing with the Ancient Moon Emperor.

Boom!

The longer Xiao Chou battled, the more fearless he became. He swept out another devastating strike and knocked the Ancient Moon Emperor back dozens of meters.

Seeing this, the expressions of Green Island’s inhabitants changed once again.

“Heavens! The monkey king commander is actually pressing the Ancient Moon Emperor back! Don’t tell me that Green Island is going to change owners again?!”

“That’s impossible,” an old tree person said while shaking its head. “The monkey king’s attacks can’t break through the Ancient Moon Emperor’s Moonlight Shield Domain. Moreover, the monkey king has most likely used a technique which grants him a burst of explosive power. This type of technique can’t last for long. The moment its effects disappear is the moment that this monkey king dies…”

The old tree person was absolutely spot on in its analysis. The effects provided by Xiao Chou’s Azure Battle Arhat Mask was almost about to disappear.

“Are we still a bit off…” An Lin grabbed the Evil-Slaying Sword out from his storage ring.

The Ancient Moon Emperor and Xiao Chou were still locked in a fierce battle. No one would take notice of a mediocre cultivator’s actions.

Right at this moment, however, heaven and earth suddenly became pitch-black.

Second technique, Shadow Tiger!

Everything became silent. The Ancient Moon Emperor suddenly started shuddering, and a feeling of impending doom enveloped its entire body. This was a feeling of danger that it had never felt before.

It frantically drove its Moonlight Shield Domain to the max of its abilities, and the full moon behind its back released a boundless white glow.

However, the darkness was like sharp claws as it ripped through the white glow and consumed the full moon…

“No!” The Ancient Moon Emperor was terrified and it immediately begged for mercy.

At that moment, it recalled the ruthlessness of the dragon tribe female’s sword strike. It once again felt the terror of being at the mercy of others.

“I’ll borrow your arm for a moment.”

Amid the absolute darkness and deathly silence, an indifferent voice suddenly sounded. An Lin appeared from within the darkness and ferociously slashed at the Ancient Moon Emperor!

A black sword projection which stretched thousands of feet long suddenly cut down. The tormented wails of the Ancient Moon Emperor echoed through the skies.

Light reappeared. The darkness had come quickly, and it also left quickly.

When the beings of Green Island finally regained their vision, what they saw was a giant white dog holding a thick greenish-yellow arm in its mouth. It was currently fleeing off into the distance with the monkey king.

“Humph! What bullsh*t emperor of Green Island! It can’t even block a single strike of mine! Sword Immortal An Lin will spare your life so you can reflect upon yourself!”

After performing a single sword slash, the handsome male threw down these comments and left the beings of Green Island to gaze upon the back of his mighty figure. He trod on his strange black brick and flew off into the skies. No one dared to stop him.

Shock gripped at their hearts. They couldn’t fathom why this Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator was so strong.

However, there was one thing that they were especially clear about. That was, Sword Immortal An Lin had defeated the Ancient Moon Emperor with a single strike of his sword! His achievement would definitely spread throughout Green Island and even the East Sea.

Of course, this was on the premise that the Ancient Moon Emperor didn’t mind…

After surviving this great catastrophe, the Ancient Moon Emperor had already lost its Long Aotian temperament. It shivered slightly as it descended back onto the stone altar. It knew that if An Lin didn’t spare it just then, it definitely would have lost more than just a single arm. Its entire body would have been cleaved into two halves…

The male with terrifying sword techniques has left? Why did he leave after throwing a single strike?

The Ancient Moon Emperor was puzzled. However, thinking back to the giant dog which was holding one of its arms in its mouth, it seemed to come to some understanding.

Back then, didn’t the dragon tribe female also leave after hacking off one of its limbs?

A feeling of extreme terror gripped at its heart as it mulled over the familiarity of these events. It shivered involuntarily.

“I’ve beaten away all those who dared challenge me…

“Now, I’m the emperor of Green Island. Who refuses to accept this?!”

The Ancient Moon Emperor’s mighty voice boomed across the stone altar.

The beings of Green Island all felt as if their intelligence had been insulted. However, they still didn’t dare say a thing. Although the Ancient Moon Emperor had lost an arm, there still wasn’t any being here who could defeat it…

“Since no one objects, then I’m the emperor of Green Island from today onward!”

After saying this, the Ancient Moon Emperor ascended Green Island’s throne.

“Congratulations on becoming emperor! May the almighty Ancient Moon Emperor enjoy boundless longevity!”

The tree people and spirit beasts of Green Island all hailed their new emperor in unison.

Somewhere on Green Island, a male trod atop the rolling waves.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. The ‘power of wood’ on this island is so rich. It’s a good place to cultivate.

“Huh? It seems like there’s a gathering over there. How can I, Spring Male, let slip such an interesting event?!

“Since they’re all gathered together, I may as well take this opportunity to install myself as this island’s owner. That way, I can build a rich, powerful, democratic, and cultured island nation. Hehehe…”

Up in the sky, An Lin placed the Ancient Moon Emperor’s arm into his storage ring.

He had already examined this arm with his Divine Inspection Technique. This was a Ten Thousand Year Moon Sinking Wood, and its quality was numerous times better than what he had anticipated.

He was a bit regretful now. How good would it have been if he directly slaughtered the Ancient Moon Emperor back then? They could sell the excess material, couldn’t they? These were valuable materials…

Next, he needed to collect the Ancient Purple Vine and True Blood of the Winged Dragon. He could find both of these materials at the East Sea’s ancient battleground.

He had seen this ancient battleground in the scenes that Shen Yin had shown them.

This was where the Godfiend of Six Paths—a failed Dao Integration Stage experiment of the Purple Star Realm—led a hundred thousand ghostly soldiers and waged war against the Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas.

Countless powerful beings died in that earth-shaking and brutal war. The casualties included five Return to Void Stage winged dragons and the Vermilion Bird Sect’s peerless prodigy, Dongfang Ming.

Now, that battleground had already become an isolated deathtrap. Spatial turbulences ripped through the area, and ghostly apparitions roamed. Supreme beings of the Return to Void Stage dared not set foot upon that place, as doing so would cause that fragile piece of heaven and earth to crumble and collapse.

Only a few cultivators of the Soul Formation Stage or Spirit Nurturing Stage would risk venturing there in search of great opportunities.

It was in some realm of that ancient battleground that Shen Yin found the Ancient Purple Vine and True Blood of the Winged Dragon.

“Hopefully the cultivators who entered later haven’t discovered that independent realm yet,” An Lin said uneasily.

It wasn’t that he was worried about the Ancient Purple Vine wilting or the True Blood of the Winged Dragon drying up. The Ancient Purple Vine could feed off the atmosphere of death to survive, while the True Blood of the Winged Dragon was immortal and existed within the bones of winged dragons.

“What if the Ancient Purple Vine has become a spirit and run away?” Da Bai suddenly asked worriedly.

An Lin: “…”

Before, he didn’t believe that things could become spirits after living for a long time. However, the incident relating to the Moon Sinking Tree rendered him speechless.

An Lin didn’t respond to Da Bai’s question. He chose to remain silent.

After a long time.

After seeing an overgrown island, they started to dive down further.

On the floor of the deep sea, a white, ripple-like barrier stretched thousands of kilometers.

Once upon a time, this place had the strongest defensive spell formation and was the most prosperous city of the Dragon Court. However, a sudden battle destroyed everything. Now, it had already become an isolated deathtrap…

“M-hm… I see it. The entrance is over there!”

Following his memory, Xiao Chou navigated around the white barrier and finally located a large white door with his searchlights.

They were delighted as they made their way before this large white door.

Light rippled within this door, and it gave off a feeling that was both mysterious and dangerous.

Looking into this door, An Lin’s eyes became snowy white.

“The passage through this barrier is still clear and unobstructed. Moreover, its relatively stable today… This truly is a divine blessing!

“Ancient battleground, here I come!”
