Wait a minute, where is my master?

While the young Taoist was puzzled in his heart,

a faint transmission suddenly rang out in his mind.

"Want... still want."

He wrinkled his features immediately upon hearing this and looked at the Origin of the Demon Realm that was clung to his hand, thinking to himself.

"How can this thing get addicted to purification!?"

...

...

At West Pole Peak, located in the eastern part.

On the peak, the middle one of three arena platforms.

Creatures of various clans were quietly waiting for the arrival of Xue Po, the Clan Leader of the Snow Wolf Clan.

However, when anomalies such as the reversal of day and night appeared, all the demon cultivators, originally either meditating, eyes closed, or casually chatting, stopped what they were doing and looked up towards the sky.

A moment later,

the expressions of surprise and confusion appeared on the faces of the top-tier demon cultivators present.

Not far from the Clan Leader of the Purple Spirit Elephant Clan, a demon cultivator from the Glazed Glass Pangolin Clan hesitated, looked around at the familiar people, and then asked with uncertainty in his eyes.

"Old Elephant, did you feel anything when the anomaly emerged just now?"

The Clan Leader of the Purple Spirit Elephant Clan was filled with confusion at this moment. Hearing his old friend's question, he hesitated for a moment before he silently nodded and said,

"Yes, I felt it..."

"I thought it was just me getting older and my spiritual senses degrading. Since you felt it too, Old Elephant, there must be no mistake. But..."

The old face of the Glazed Glass Pangolin Clan's demon cultivator was filled with confusion at this moment.

On this vast arena platform,

similar conversations were happening among many top-tier demon cultivators of various clans.

And right now, by the Clan Leader of the Purple Spirit Elephant Clan,

there was a slightly less cultivated Little Purple Spirit Elephant who could not hold back his curiosity, so he secretly transmitted his voice to inquire from his clan leader.

"Clan Leader, what were you and Senior Shi talking about? I don't understand at all?"

"It's none of your business, kid!"

the Clan Leader scolded, turning his face to reprimand, then continued,

"Stay here and behave. I'm going to consult with Brother Shi and the other top-tier cultivators from different clans to understand what just happened with the anomaly, and... ahem,"

The Clan Leader of the Purple Spirit Elephant Clan stopped speaking mid-sentence with a cough and then stepped forward with the old member of the Glazed Glass Pangolin Clan to go and exchange their recently acquired sensations with the top-tier demon cultivators of the other clans.

The rebuked Little Elephant felt a bit aggrieved, mumbling softly,

"I'm already four hundred and thirty-seven years old this year, how am I still little..."

Afterward, he tentatively turned to another elderly clan member next to him and asked,

"Grandpa Third, do you know what Clan Leader and Senior Shi were talking about just now?"

"Be quiet, don't ask about things you shouldn't,"

the unenlightened Old Third scolded sternly and then silently sent a transmission to the Clan Leader.

...

...

Inside the graveyard of the Purple Spirit Elephant Clan,

the young Taoist had a hard time and finally managed to remove the Origin of the Demon Realm that had been sucking on his left hand.

Jin Xu did not dare to pull it off forcefully or to break it open directly, for fear of accidentally causing it harm.

Thankfully, the qing color substance didn't possess too much autonomous consciousness. In the end, when he brandished the "Hand Palm Thunder" with his right hand and employed both kindness and intimidation, coaxing and threatening with words like,

"Once we get to the Nine Provinces, I'll use the 'Body Purification Skill' on you again. If you don't come down, this Golden Thunderbolt is going to shock you,"

only then did the World Origin of the Demon Realm reluctantly let go of his left hand and obediently lay down inside the source box.

"Phew—I remember that the Heavenly Dao rules of the Nine Provinces Realm, as well as the World Origin of the Qingmu Secret Realm, aren't like this. How come the World Origin of the Demon Realm seems to be addicted to the 'Body Purification Skill'?"

The young Taoist muttered to himself as he carefully secured the source box and tucked it into his bosom.

At the same time, he prepared to meet up with the two women within the territory of the Purple Spirit Elephant Clan.

Then he planned to hurriedly return to the Nine Provinces and bring this World Origin to the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Dao rules there.

It is known that whether it's the World Origin leaving the small world or the small world losing the presence of its World Origin, if too much time passes, both would encounter significant problems.

Therefore, his actions needed to be as quick as possible.

Only by handing over the World Origin of the Demon Realm to the Heavenly Dao rules of the Nine Provinces Realm, and after they establish a connection with the Demon Realm through their authority, can he ensure that this world won't decline due to the temporary loss of the World Origin.

However, not long after the young Taoist used his Escape Technique to fly towards the Purple Spirit Elephant Clan territory,

he noticed a huge Snow Wolf on the ground carrying a Little Purple Spirit Elephant, sprinting towards him like a white whirlwind.

"A Snow Wolf carrying an elephant?"

Jin Xu promptly halted his own Escape Technique, and Little White on the ground, who had clearly scented her temple master, abruptly came to an emergency stop on the ground.

Then...

The young Taoist saw that the Little Purple Spirit Elephant on her back and Yu Yaoer, who had been sitting cross-legged with eyes closed on top of the elephant, were both propelled out due to the inertia.

"..."

Jin Xu, without the time to criticize anything, swiftly maneuvered three times mid-air and steadily rescued both the Little Purple Spirit Elephant and Yu Yaoer before they hit the ground.

"Little White, what's with all the fuss?"

First, he reprimanded the Husky, then he bent down to set the Little Purple Spirit Elephant and Little Fish Demon—who had just opened her eyes to find herself mid-air—gently on the ground.

"Ahem, my apologies, Little Fish, and also Little Zi."

The Husky first came over to apologize to the bewildered Yu Yaoer and the Purple Spirit Elephant, and then excitedly said to the young Taoist,

"Temple master, I was just comforting Little Zi with Little Fish. Suddenly, the sky darkened and a wild wind arose. Then Little Zi said she sensed the World Origin of the Demon Realm, seeming to convey two thoughts to her."

"I thought that our purpose for this journey was for the World Origin, so I quickly carried them over to find you!"

"Little Zi? She sensed two thoughts conveyed by the World Origin of the Demon Realm?"

Jin Xu looked at the Little Purple Spirit Elephant nearby with some curiosity.

At this time, although there was still deep terror and unease in her eyes, it was much better than at first, when her eyes were filled with numbness and lifelessness.

"Such a big emotional change in such a short time. It seems that the decision to leave the two ladies to look after her was the right one,"

he pondered in his heart.

Meanwhile, Little White nodded vigorously, saying,

"Yes, it was Little Zi who sensed it. She said the first thought conveyed to her by the World Origin was the words 'comfortable,' and the second was 'want... more.'

"..."

The young Taoist stood frozen on the spot upon hearing this.

Unaware of what was odd, the Husky continued after finishing her story and suddenly changed the topic,

"Temple master, Little Fish and I just asked Little Zi what exactly happened within her clan. Could you consider letting her move to Xuanxu Temple to live with us in the future?

"And she even said she wants to acknowledge me as the boss."

After speaking, her eyes fluttered at Jin Xu as if trying to look pitiful.

However, in her current Snow Wolf form, this action failed to evoke any pity,

Instead, it made the Husky in front of him seem

incredibly "wise."
