Rippling azure waves, the sea and sky merge into one.

Yu Yuan stands between the sea and sky, staring agape at the figure formed from the mist in the Heavenly Vault.

Heavenly Dao?

Taoist Ancestor?

Yu Yuan is unsure, but a strong sense of danger arises from deep within his heart.

This sense of danger often comes naturally to many beings and can also emerge from cultivating to a high realm, forming Divine Skills.

It is usually referred to as spiritual perception, or sudden premonitions, among other terms.

At the advent of danger, this spiritual perception acts as an early warning.

And at this moment, Yu Yuan's spiritual perception is ringing in his ears like a hundred Chaos Bells!

Even his physical body has instinctively tensed up, ready to resist!

What's happening!?

Could it be that his frequent triggering of Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder has drawn the attention of the Taoist Ancestor?

In his current state, if he's perceived as a loophole by Heavenly Dao or the Taoist Ancestor, he would certainly face direct extermination, suppression, or expulsion!

What to do now... Right!

In his Qiankun Ruyi Bag, he still has a dozen Demon Gods in golden armor; could he use them to divert attention?

Now is not the time to ponder deeply; as soon as the idea pops up, Yu Yuan makes up his mind. Under the terrifying pressure above him, he loudly declares:

"As the Fourth Generation of Direct Disciples of Xuanmen, I did not intend to offend the Heavenly power!"

"It was merely my carelessness and oversight, allowing some Ancient Era Demon Gods with treasures to hide inside my Qiankun Ruyi Bag... I will capture them now!"

While speaking, he reaches into the Qiankun Ruyi Bag, grabs one of the Demon Gods in golden armor, and throws him out.

As soon as that Demon God in golden armor emerges from the Qiankun Ruyi Bag, before he can even discern his surroundings, a thick, dark red light column descends from the sky.

In just an instant, the Demon God in golden armor is reduced to ashes.

At the same time the Demon God in golden armor turns to ashes, Yu Yuan can distinctly feel the massive Heavenly might from above the Heavenly Vault diminish slightly.

It seems this method is effective!

Without hesitation, he continues to throw out the Demon Gods in golden armor one after the other.

Inside his Qiankun Ruyi Bag is a small world of its own, encompassing thousands of miles; though mostly used as a storage bag, this treasure can also capture people.

Once inside, one would be disoriented, their Divine Soul turned upside down, unable to distinguish directions, and even a Golden Immortal would need several hours to escape.

Initially, Yu Yuan did not want to waste precious time on these Demon Gods in golden armor and just stored them directly inside the Qiankun Ruyi Bag, partly intending to experiment.

Unexpectedly, this unintentional action now plays a critical role.

As more Demon Gods in golden armor are thrown out of the Qiankun Ruyi Bag, the Heavenly might enveloping him from the Nine Heavens gradually weakens.

"Is this possible?!"

On the Purple Ganoderma Cliff, Duobao Taoist is dumbstruck.

Even Tongtian Sect Hierarch nearby chuckles and shakes his head, muttering "Sly fox."

Bringing treasures back from the Ancient Era has a fixed impact on the past; but bringing back those who should have died in the past to the present, that's bound to cause significant chaos!

Every action of the "Ancients" can potentially have a profound and vast impact on the known past.

And the more renowned the "Ancients" are, the greater the impact they can cause.

Just like the long-perished Demon Emperor Jun, if he suddenly traveled through time to the present, it would undoubtedly be a disruptive event, enough to cause significant upheaval across Primordial.

Such situations, once detected by Heavenly Dao, would immediately result in a catastrophic Heavenly punishment.

Compared to Yu Yuan, who frequently triggers the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder, it is clearly more critical to deal with the "Ancient Era visitors."

At this moment, Yu Yuan has thrown out an even more severe incident to divert the attention of the Heavenly Dao... and even his identity has transformed.

From the "Space-Time Thief" who massively triggered the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder, he suddenly became an "Assistant" who helps the Heavenly Dao deal with this sudden issue of "Ancient Era visitors."

Each time an "Ancient Era visitor" is dealt with, the Heavenly Dao's "attention" on Yu Yuan weakens.

When the last Golden Armor Demon God falls under the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder, that terrible pressure has already disappeared, and the elderly Daoist's profile above the dark clouds slowly dissipates.

"Phew—"

Yu Yuan lets out a long breath; the huge stone in his heart finally settled.

It seems that the elderly Daoist's profile formed from the clouds was not the Taoist Ancestor himself but a higher level of Heavenly Dao's will.

Otherwise, his scheme of "diverting disaster eastward" could not have possibly been concealed.

Of course, it could also be because his identity as the "Fourth Generation of Direct Disciples" played a role.

While feeling relieved, Yu Yuan also quietly warns himself not to be so reckless in the future.

Everything has a limit; if he were to recklessly trigger the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder like today again, it probably wouldn't be so easily resolved.

As for the three Jade Trees he uprooted from the Taiyin Star, they can only temporarily stay inside the Qiankun Ruyi Bag now.

Although the little world inside this Qiankun Ruyi Bag is only a thousand miles in radius, it is a relatively independent and enclosed space. As long as the bag's mouth remains closed, the aura of the Jade Trees should not be detected by the Heavenly Dao.

"You really have some nerve!"

A cold, angry voice sounded. It was the Golden Spirit Saint Mother who, while sighing in relief, couldn't suppress the fire in her heart and couldn't help but scold loudly:

"Have you gone mad? Do you realize how dangerous it was just now? Can't you just stay quietly in your Tian Yuan Palace and focus on cultivation?! What in the world are you trying to do!"

The Golden Spirit Saint Mother felt a rush of nameless rage ascending her cabeza, her chest heaving intensely.

Her eyes were filled with fury, seemingly determined to strictly discipline this disobedient disciple.

"Um... I'd like to put some clothes on first." Yu Yuan said somewhat awkwardly: "Could I borrow a Magic Robe?"

Because his Daoist robe had previously frozen into powder on the Taiyin Star, and his spare Daoist robe was also turned to flying ash, he could only weave a loose Daoist robe with mana to barely cover his body.

But the problem is that the Daoist robe he wove with mana, compared to a real Magic Robe, lacked many important functions.

Such as shielding from others' senses, preventing others' Divine Thought from spying, and more.

The only function of the Daoist robe on his body was to some extent visual hiding.

But for Immortal Gods, vision is just the most basic of the five senses.

Using Divine Thought to assist senses in observing everything around them is already an instinct practiced by many Immortal Gods.

Some of those with profound Dao Xing can even perceive subtle changes across different dimensions and across time and space.

Golden Spirit Saint Mother was undoubtedly one of those with profound Dao Xing.

Thus, even without using vision, she could perceive Yu Yuan's appearance—

He stood proudly between heaven and earth, his shoulders broad, his physique sculpted and fit.

Every muscle was visible, fitting into the outlines and silently exuding a strong male energy.

His arms were full of blue veins, and each time he took a deep breath, his chest rose high, highlighting the unmatched strength of this robust body...

It's just that previously, because Yu Yuan was under the threat of the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder, she did not think anything was amiss.

Now, hearing Yu Yuan ask her for "clothes," she suddenly froze, her gaze unconsciously slipping downwards.

Even though she quickly recovered, a flicker of unnaturalness flashed in her eyes, and her face gradually reddened.

She fiercely glared at Yu Yuan, then turned into a streak of rosy light and disappeared into the sky.

"..."

Yu Yuan didn't expect her to leave just like that. After being stunned for a moment, he called out with tears in his eyes: "At least leave me a piece of clothing!"
