Duan Gujin rushed into the white fog along with Xiao Yueyue, his Divine Sense scanning around, only to find that the white fog hindered his Divine Sense Inspection, limiting his perception to only tens of meters nearby.

"It seems that the Nine Nether Earth Fire must be very familiar with this place!"

This thought flashed rapidly through his mind.

But since the Nine Nether Earth Fire urged him to rush inward quickly, he complied with its request and charged deeper inside.

After covering roughly a kilometer, he stopped. Setting down Xiao Yueyue, he sat cross-legged on the ground, regulating his breathing and recovering his Primordial Power.

After a while, having ingested a drop of Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk, he regained his strength to Peak State.

Seeing that Duan Gujin had finally opened his eyes, Xiao Yueyue let out a sigh of relief.

She looked around and immediately became fearful.

She was well aware that even a Martial Saint Expert would have to tread lightly in this place, with the elders of the Spirit-controlling Immortal Sect repeatedly warning their disciples never to venture here.

Previously, she would have avoided this place at all costs and never dreamt that she would one day enter it.

"When will that ball of fire return?"

Xiao Yueyue asked.

"We'll just wait for it right here!"

Duan Gujin believed that the Nine Nether Earth Fire would not be easily captured by the Demon Saint, as it was a genuine Innate Spiritual Object.

Sure enough, after a while, the Nine Nether Earth Fire returned.

"I'll take you two and run out of here immediately!"

This was the first thing the Nine Nether Earth Fire said upon returning, indicating it would lead Duan Gujin to escape.

Thus, Duan Gujin carried Xiao Yueyue on his back and, under its guidance, continuously dashed forward.

Through communication, Duan Gujin learned that the Nine Nether Earth Fire could sense everything within a radius of several kilometers.

"This environment is perfect for me to unleash my full potential! The white fog here contains power from the Netherworld!"

The Nine Nether Earth Fire said so.

"Oh, I see!"

Duan Gujin suddenly came to a realization.

Under the Nine Nether Earth Fire's lead, he spent two days and finally emerged from the region shrouded in white fog.

At first, he wasn't sure whether he was in the Human Race World or at Hundred Saints Mountain.

Releasing his Divine Sense, after a while, he spotted several Human Warriors slaying demons.

In a flash, he transformed into a streak of light and hurried toward them.

Upon seeing the Human Warriors, he immediately inquired about their current location.

The Human Warriors told him the name of the place, and after hearing it, Duan Gujin was convinced that he had truly returned to the Human Race World.

"This is excellent!"

After a while, he found a nearby town.

In that town, he replenished some food and then decided to first take Xiao Yueyue back to the Spirit-controlling Immortal Sect.

Five days later, he finally brought her to the gates of the Spirit-controlling Immortal Sect.

Reflecting on this experience, Xiao Yueyue felt profoundly shaken.

"Duan Gujin, will we have the chance to meet again in the future?"

Xiao Yueyue suddenly asked with a blush on her face.

"If fate allows, we will naturally meet!"

Duan Gujin replied indifferently.

"Mm, that's good. Can I come to find you?"

Xiao Yueyue asked.

"Yes! I am the Honorary Elder of the Blood Killing Sect. When you come to the gate of the Blood Killing Sect, just tell the disciples there that you are looking for the Honorary Elder Duan Gujin of the Blood Killing Sect, they should then recognize my status!"

Duan Gujin spoke indifferently.

"How old are you this year? And you say you're actually an Honorary Elder? Is that possible?"

Xiao Yueyue laughed.

Her heart was filled with confusion and disbelief.

"That's right, I am indeed an Honorary Elder of the Blood Killing Sect! If you ever want to find me, just mention my name, Duan Gujin, and that will do!"

Duan Gujin smiled faintly.

In his heart, he didn't believe Xiao Yueyue would take the initiative to find him. Many people were just passers-by in life.

"Oh! Thank you for taking care of me on this journey!"

"It's nothing, you should go back! I have to leave now!"

"Okay!"

As soon as Xiao Yueyue entered the Spirit-controlling Immortal Sect, she saw her mother waiting for her at the gate with several people.

Her mother, although a middle-aged woman, was very well-kept and looked not much different from a woman of twenty-four or twenty-five.

Beside her were six young women, all younger than her, but standing together, they made her look the youngest.

"My darling, you're finally back! I've been so worried since you disappeared!"

When her mother saw Xiao Yueyue return, she rushed over and checked her from head to toe, fearful she might be missing an arm or leg.

Xiao Yueyue immediately said, "Mother, I'm fine, don't worry about me! I'm okay!"

"My darling, let's go back! Tell me your story from these past few days!"

The middle-aged woman said.

"Alright!"

Xiao Yueyue replied.

An hour later, after hearing about the events that transpired during Xiao Yueyue's disappearance, the middle-aged woman gasped.

"God! Are you saying that the Honorary Elder from the Blood Killing Sect named Duan Gujin has obtained that Innate Spiritual Object?"

"Yes! Mother, are Innate Spiritual Objects really that precious?"

Xiao Yueyue asked, her understanding of the concept of Innate Spiritual Objects was limited.

She had only heard some legends about Innate Spiritual Objects before and didn't really know much about their value.

"The combined value of all the treasures in our entire Spirit-controlling Immortal Sect might not even match one high-grade Innate Spiritual Object! The value of Innate Spiritual Objects is extremely hard to measure; some are priceless and can even elevate a sect rapidly to be a first-class sect, while others may not be of much value. However, any Innate Spiritual Object is a treasure, and the value that can be drawn from it depends on the ability of its owner! I can't believe that young man named Duan Gujin actually got an Innate Spiritual Object; if this gets out, it will definitely cause a sensation in the Jiuzhou Continent!"

The middle-aged woman said.

Hearing her mother's words, Xiao Yueyue was shocked; she realized she had a close encounter with a rare treasure.

"However, even if I had the Green Stone, I would hardly dare to communicate with that ball of fire!"

Reflecting on her previous experience, Xiao Yueyue immediately understood the gap between herself and Duan Gujin was truly immense.

Duan Gujin did not immediately run away when pursued by that ball of fire, but instead, he used his Divine Thought to communicate with it.

Moreover, they eventually reached a cooperation, with Duan Gujin even promising to take the Nine Nether Earth Fire back home, to a place which she had never heard before.

So, even if she were to communicate with the Nine Nether Earth Fire, she definitely wouldn't be able to cooperate with it to help it return home.

"So that's how it is, that person named Duan Gujin really is incredibly lucky!"

Xiao Yueyue remarked.

"Where is he now?"

Her mother quickly asked.

"After he dropped me off here, he left!"

Xiao Yueyue said.

"Oh!"

The middle-aged woman's eyes flickered, and a gleam of light flashed through her pupils.
