Heavenly Court’s Entrustment

```
**Contains Spoiler**

```

Heavenly Court’s Entrustments were given out when the Heavenly Court needed to deal with some matter but didn’t have enough available personnel to deal with it by themselves. They would entrust these matters to the Nine Imperials or other top-rated sects and reward them with a certain amount of compensation.

Theoretically speaking, the Heavenly Court ruled over the Kingdom of the Nine States, which the Four Great Sects were also a part of. However, the Four Great Sects were beyond the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court. They existed within the Nine States, yet they stood detached from the Nine States.

## Mission

*Heavenly Court’s Entrustment.*

*Trustor: Celestial Thearch.*

*Entrusted Task: Investigate the reasons behind the riots in the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool.*

*Reward: Based on intelligence gathered, the reward may vary from one million to twenty million spirit stones.*

*Time limit: Unlimited.*

According to rumors, five Return to Void Stage immortal beasts had died during one of the riots. Right now, the riots were still ongoing.

As for why these riots were occurring, people were coming up with all sorts of speculations. However, there wasn’t any reliable information.

Indigenous beasts, which were too low in rank, didn’t know of the reasons either, and high-rank beasts all kept tight-lipped regarding the riots.

## Riots in the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool

The Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool was indeed a colossal power, however they were more interested in fighting each other than with their neighbors.

However, this happy balance had recently been shattered.

This was because the beast tribes had grown even more violently, and they fought not only just among themselves now, but also against other powers. Apparently, a nearby mid-grade power, the Green Soul Tribe, had already been razed to the ground as a result of this unrest.

According to the Jade Bone Immortal Bug, the reason for the riots in the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool was due to the appearance of Vast Land of Blood within the Realm of the Fallen Demonic Blood Kirin.

“If the Vast Land of Blood appears within the Realm of the Fallen Demonic Blood Kirin, crimson light is going to enshroud the entire sky, upon which the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool will become a truly terrifying land of senseless slaughter. When that time comes, most of the beasts are going to lose all sanity and be reduced to killing machines governed only by their most primal instincts of slaughter!

“A passageway connecting the Vast Land of Blood to the outside world is already gradually being opened up, and many of the beast tribes have already been affected. This situation will worsen as the passageway opens up further.

“A while ago, four Return to Void Stage immortal beasts entered the passageway and had all gone insane upon their return. During our efforts to slay those four immortal beasts, another one of our immortal beasts had unfortunately passed away.”

In order to deal with those affected by the Vast Land of Blood, the Ghost Emperor Po Jun from the Opposite Shore Realm was invited to carry out a purge, with those who managed to survive being allowed to enter the Vast Land of Blood.

The mission of these Soul Formation Stage cultivators who managed to survive the purge performed by Ghost Emperor Po Jun is to find the Kirin Blood Jade and deliver it to the Divine Bat Emperor.

For those who managed to find the Kirin Blood Jade the Divine Bat Emperor promised to grant three immortal tools and ten immortal pills! On top of that, they will receive the esteemed title of the Realm Guarding Beast General as well as the position of City Lord to five of the one hundred most important cities within the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool.

However with regard to the promises of the Jade Bone Immortal Bug of countless opportunities and guarantees of personal safety to anyone who chooses to participate in the exploration, no one believed even for a minute. However, after seeing the fate of those who opposed participating in this mission, all opposition was silenced.

However, when the Jade Bone Immortal Bug was feeling satisfied with himself and was preparing to take everyone present to the Vast Land of Blood, a dissident voice rose and the owner of that voice was of course An Lin.

After speaking he immediately started to instigate all the other beasts to rebel and attack the Jade Bone Immortal Bug that wanted to force them to their own death.

As expected from battle-loving animals, after someone among them got up for battle they immediately went into action and attacked the Jade Bone Immortal Bug without caring about anything.

Seeing this An Lin and Xu Xiaolan also joined the battle, occasionally attacking the Jade Bone Immortal Bug.

Seeing that the situation was proving to be dangerous for her, the Jade Bone Immortal Bug with no other alternative started the transformation of the second stage, transformation of the butterfly.

When transformed into its butterfly shape, the Jade Bone Immortal Bug exuded an aura of the Return to Void Initial Stage and killed almost instantly all the attacking animals of the Soul Formation Stage, leaving only An Lin and Xu Xiaolan.

As he prepared to deal with these two ants, the situation changed, a massive spell formation unfolded to cover the entire environment and a colossal black dragon came into view.

At first he thought it was Long Aotian, a nightmare figure for him, but it was none other than Xiao Ze who had gone into hiding to establish the formation of spells to prevent the Jade Bone Immortal Bug from escaping.

After the Jade Bone Immortal Bug was sure that Xiao Ze was not Long Aotian he renewed his courage and tried to engage in combat with Xiao Ze, but was beaten up in a sad figure by Xiao Ze, reaching the point of begging for mercy, opening the eyes of An Lin and his group that not all the beasts of the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool are courageous and fearless, in the end not to die the Jade Bone Immortal Bug established a slave contract with An Lin and spilled all the bean on the truth about the riots at the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool.

According to the Jade Bone Immortal Bug most of what he said earlier the other beasts of the Soul Formation Stage was the truth, Vast Land of Blood has really insignificant effects on Spirit Nurturing and Soul Formation cultivators, and there really are many opportunities there.

However what he didn’t say are the dangers involved and the details about Kirin Blood Jade, when the passageway first opened up, the Divine Bat Emperor sent a small army of one thousand into the Vast Land of Blood. The army consisted of thirty Soul Formation Stage soul beasts, three hundred Spirit Nurturing Stage spirit beasts, and over six hundred high-rank Dao Body mutant beasts. In the end, only about two dozen of them returned.

The Realm of the Fallen Demonic Blood Kirin is fraught with perils, and the environment is extremely dangerous. There are also many terrifying Demonic Blood Beasts and dead souls as well… It is an extremely hazardous place, which is why the Divine Bat Emperor is trying to recruit more beasts in order to better search the Vast Land of Blood.

Aside from that, the Kirin Blood Jade isn’t actually the key to closing the passageway. According to the Jade Bone Immortal Bug, the Divine Bat Emperor has other uses for it, yet the details he is not sure about, but one thing he does know is that the Kirin Blood Jade is very valuable, extremely valuable.

Although the Realm of the Fallen Demonic Blood Kirin is part of the Divine Bat Emperor’s territory, all the other emperors have also been alerted to its existence. All of them are trying to send their beast cultivators into the Vast Land of Blood under the guise of protecting the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool. The Divine Bat Emperor is enduring a lot of pressure from the other emperors, but this situation is going to reach a breaking point soon. Hence, the Divine Bat Emperor wants to find the Kirin Blood Jade for himself within the next few days.

Finally, the Divine Bat Emperor announced that all troops under his command will be mobilized to start a new war as soon as everything is resolved, however the Jade Bone Immortal Bug is not in a position high enough to know against whom they will start a war.

After transmitting all the information he received from the Jade Bone Immortal Bug to Heavenly Court, An Lin received the response from Celestial Thearch.

*“Well done. This information is worth five million spirit stones!*

*“If you can gather more information in the Vast Land of Blood, I can offer a base price of ten million spirit stones with no upper limit! If you can obtain the Kirin Blood Jade, the Heavenly Court is willing to purchase it for fifty million spirit stones!”*

After discussing the Celestial Thearch proposal with Xu Xiaolan and Xiao Ze, and receiving news from the Jade Bone Immortal Bug that the Divine Bat Emperor is busy guarding himself against the other emperors on the Divine Mountain of the Celestial Beast, along with three others powerful figures from Return to Void and that the only one who would guard the opening of the passage would be one of the trusted subordinates of the Divine Bat Emperor, the Nightmare Mud Man, a Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure. An Lin and Xu Xiaolan then decided to enter the Vast Land of Blood and Xiao Ze would be in charge of running away with the two of them when they left.

## Vast Land of Blood

After deciding his next steps An Lin and his group left for Vast Land of Blood. The place where the passage to the Vast Land of Blood was located was a famous place in the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool, the Heavenly Basin.

That place was a vast expanse of sunken earth surrounded by extremely precarious rock faces, as if this place had caved in upon being struck by a gigantic hammer.

They could see the rock face behind them, but they couldn’t see the other three rock faces clearly even as they peered as far as they could into the distance. All the other three rock faces were black lines in their field of vision. These were massive rock faces close to a kilometer tall; for them to appear like black lines was an indication of just how massive this expanse of land was.

In the central region of Heavenly Basin where the entrance to the Vast Land of Blood An Lin and Xu Xiaolan saw a gigantic vortex. That's right, the entrance to the Vast Land of Blood was not a space gate or passageway, instead of, it was a gigantic red vortex on the floor.

The crimson vortex appeared to be over ten kilometers in diameter. The peripheries were as red as blood, and this color only darkened as you approached the center of the vortex, to the extent that the central area of the vortex was already an inky black.

It was like a gigantic, sinister mouth that cackled maliciously as it waited for everyone to fall into its depths.

After reporting to Nightmare Mud Man, the latter waved his hand, and a black bridge materialized from the edge of the vortex and stretched to the center before plunging into the boundless darkness.

Just as An Lin suspected he and Xu Xiaolan to enter the Vast Land of Blood would have to jump on the vortex. In the end, as he could not break his cover, he could only clench his teeth and go along with the other beasts across the bridge and when his turn arrived An Lin kept Xu Xiaolan's hand tightly together to his and the two jumped into the vortex.

### Entering in the Vast Land of Blood

When An Lin reopened his eyes, he discovered that he had arrived at an extremely foreign place. This place was completely different from his mental image of what the Vast Land of Blood would be like.

The Vast Land of Blood sounded like an extremely gruesome place. It felt like it should have been a chaotic and sinister place instead of the world before them, where a sea of stars lit up the night sky overhead and the pitch-black earth was completely silent.

Xu Xiaolan looked up into the sky, and the galaxy of stars was reflected in her eyes, making them appear even more vibrant and dazzling.

After stargazing for a short while, her eyes locked onto a certain star, which was crimson like blood.

According to the Jade Bone Immortal Bug, to find the exit they must first locate a yellow star, which indicates the south and the blood star, which indicates the north and after that they must find the place where the two stars are connected in a line and walk towards the yellow star, that was the best way to find the exit.
Everything was deathly silent. The galaxy of stars overhead was incapable of speech, and the vast expanse of pitch-black earth was devoid of any living creatures. The entire place appeared extremely lonesome and desolate.

In that place the flight is prohibited, those who try to fly in this world will be oppressed by the stars.

According to a witness that happened to be in the right place at the right time, it bore witness to a flying beast being reduced to mincemeat by the oppressive power of the stars upon it taking flight. Its companion, a Steel Saber Penguin, gave up on flight upon witnessing the death of its companion and chose to crawl along the ground instead, thereby allowing it to become the only flying beast survivor.

In fact, there were three phenomena unique to the Vast Land of Blood.

The Oppressive Stars, the Heavenly Judgement, and the Almighty Reversal.

The oppressive power of stars wasn’t really too much of a concern as it only inflicted punishment on those that took flight, which meant all that they had to do to avoid it was to refrain from flying.

However, the Heavenly Judgement was different, and it was also known as the roulette wheel of death.

This was a massacre that would befall any place the eyes in the sky focused on!

Also known as I look, you die!

It was a large scale attack that was delivered completely at random!

After being able to survive the encounter with the eyes of Heavenly Judgment, an event of very low probability of happening if one takes into account the size of Vast Land of Blood, An Lin, Xu Xiaolan and Ao Niu, a member of the beast tribe of the Soul Formation Stage that An Lin subdued, left for towards the location of the blood star.

### Floating Continent of Blood Star

As they continued onward, the location of the blood star overhead also seemed to change slowly, and it also seemed to become bigger and brighter.

They could easily detect the changes in the location of the blood star overhead, which meant that it wasn’t all that far away!

Before they knew it, the outline of the blood star had slowly materialized before their eyes.

“That’s not a star!” An Lin stared blankly at the “star” up ahead.

“Hmm… It looks quite flat, like a small patch of land.” Xu Xiaolan nodded.

That’s right, what appeared before them was a flat, floating continent that looked like a pizza smeared with too much tomato sauce!

As they drew closer, the floating continent expanded in their field of vision. They could even see some peculiar buildings on that floating continent!

This meant that living creatures inhabited, or they had once inhabited the floating continents. Also, according to their vast experience in exploring ruins, all the signs pointed to the notion that this was where precious treasures would be gathered!

After all, only through the activity of living creatures did cultural heritage get left behind.

An Lin could finally discern what the buildings looked like. All of them consisted of a crimson pillar with a crimson semi-sphere on top, appearing a lot like mushrooms.

At the very center of the floating continent, there was a huge mushroom that gave off a dazzling red light.

The rays of light and the floating continent blended seamlessly together, making it appear as if it was a red star in the distance.

The moment An Lin, Xu Xiaolan and Ao Niu were about to explore the floating continent, they were intercepted by the Divine Guardian Squad, a group under the direct command of the Divine Bat Emperor, with its members being between the most powerful Soul Formation Stage beings within the beast tribes.

However, in a short time, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan managed to annihilate them, remaining alive only, the Divine Poison Frog seriously wounded and the squad leader the Gluten Lord that, in order to survive undertook to answer all An Lin's questions without hiding anything, since An Lin promises to release him, because for him the notion of not carrying out the mission he was ordered to was more terrifying than being killed by An Lin.

After establishing the agreement with An Lin, he promptly started to disclose everything he knew, however the information he knew was practically useless for An Lin, in the end to save his life he had to disclose the results of the experiences he and his squad mates they did to ignore the power of the Oppressive Stars, the only way to reach the crimson continent.

According to their experiments, they found that there are loopholes that make it possible to bypass the power of the Oppressive Stars.

For example, the power of the Oppressive Stars will only act on things flying three meters or more above the ground for a duration of six seconds!

As long as there’s something connecting the life form to the ground, they won’t be struck by the power of the Oppressive Stars. For example, changing the terrain to elevate your body position won’t incur the wrath of the Oppressive Stars.

However, this method is not very effective in allowing someone to reach the floating continent, because there is a spherical restriction with a radius of one kilometer around the floating continent. Any life form that approaches it will be torn apart by a mighty force.

Even if someone like the Gluten Lord, who has an ability that gives him an eternal body immune to physical attacks is unable to withstand the destructive power of the Oppressive Stars, this is because the power of the Oppressive Stars is not just a physical attack, it is an attack that affects all aspects of the body, including conscience.

In addition, there is a unique feature about the restrictive barrier around the floating continent, which is that it requires two seconds after something enters for its energy to be activated. This characteristic of the restrictive barrier is very similar to the power of the Oppressive Stars, in addition to the fact that there are no signs of spell formation responsible for the creation of the restrictive barrier, as if it were created by a power that exists between heaven and earth, as well as the power of the Oppressive Stars.

So the only way to enter the floating continent is to try to breach the barrier and reach the floating continent in less than two seconds, however this is a hypothesis of the Gluten Lord and not an established rule.

The Gluten Lord then with the "encouragement" from An Lin and the others tried to prove his hypothesis, however unfortunately his hypothesis proved to be wrong and the power of the restrictive barrier had been activated, but it took three seconds instead of two and his eternal body it was sliced into countless pieces and the core of its existence was destroyed, however it was not the end, after being attacked by the power of the restrictive barrier he was still struck by the power of the Oppressive Stars, brutally devastating the body of the Lord of Gluten again, that fact meant that life forms on the red floating continent were still considered in the air and would be hit by the power of the Oppressive Stars, in the end the Gluten Lord was fine and truly dead.

### The Path of Starlight

At the very moment when An Lin was thinking what solution to the situation in his hands, a new group of beasts reached them, they were the remaining members of the Divine Guardian Squad, led by the Peerless Saber Demon.

After a brief stalemate, the Peerless Saber Demon made the first move, which was easily intercepted by An Lin and the remaining beasts were looked after by xu Xiaolan who instantly killed some of them.

Seeing that these humans were too strong and they were not opponents, the Peerless Saber Demon gave the order to withdraw, however at that moment something unpredictable happened.

A pair of blue hands suddenly appeared above the galaxy of stars.

This was a flawlessly intricate, but infinitely massive pair of hands.

It was impossible to describe just how big this pair of hands were. In any case, there was nowhere one could look without seeing those hands. Even if one was to close their eyes, they would still be able to see the pair of blue hands in the darkness.

It existed within the starry night sky, as if it were the entire world.

However, at the same time, it didn’t seem to exist within the starry night sky, as if it were just an illusion.

The two hands positioned themselves, one high, one low, and the two sets of fingers slowly bent, as if something peculiar was going to appear between the two palms.

An Lin, Xu Xiaolan, and all the beasts’ expressions instantly shifted drastically upon seeing this.

This was the third phenomenon of the Vast Land of Blood, the Almighty Reversal!

This was a large scale attack that encompassed the entire world. When those unfathomable hands appeared, the entire world would be flipped upside down, upon which all living creatures were to fall into the starry sky!

Over ninety of the last group of a hundred beasts that had been deployed into the Vast Land of Blood died within the starry sky during an Almighty Reversal!

Suddenly, the hands began to slowly revolve around as the hand on the bottom switched positions with the hand on top.

Heaven and earth began to drastically transform.

Immediately afterward, everyone felt an irresistible suction power from the starry sky.

The gravity on the ground began to disappear as heaven and earth began to reverse!

The inky-black earth became the dark, rocky sky.

The boundless starry sky began to condense to become the invisible earth!

An Lin, Xu Xiaolan, and all the beasts were all sucked toward the starry sky.

Heaven and earth really had reversed. They knew that they couldn’t resist the process, nor fly toward the black, rocky sky, or they would be oppressed by the sky!

After plummeting at a high speed for close to a hundred kilometers, they crashed heavily onto a section of the starry sky.

They really were situated within a sea of stars this time, and dazzling starlight entered their eyes everywhere they looked.

An Lin turned his eyes below him. Even though he was standing on an empty space, it was as if he was standing atop an invisible spatial force. Below him lay a dark sky with specks of starlight stretching as far as the eyes could see.

An Lin did not want to remain standing rooted to the spot, where he was completely at the mercy of heaven and earth. As such, he activated his Divine Inspection Technique and looked around in an attempt to find something that he could use to escape.

The Divine Inspection Technique was capable of finding all weak points in the world, and it really did help An Lin discover something.

Some of the beasts tried to escape from the starry sky by flying into the air.

However, all of them were gnashed between the pitch-black sky and the starry ground before dying in an extremely gruesome manner, where even their bones had been pulverized to powder.

If the beasts wanted to live, they could only wait for the next Almighty Reversal!

The stars seemed to attack at random, so the beasts that walked out of here alive were not necessarily the most powerful, but they were definitely the luckiest.

In this aspect, it was quite similar to the Heavenly Judgement, in that survival essentially hinged on luck…

However, an extremely baffling scene suddenly emerged.

All the beasts turned toward a certain direction with shock and befuddlement on their faces.

In the distance, An Lin was holding Xu Xiaolan’s hand as they abused single people in public!

An Lin walked with Xu Xiaolan, hand in hand, with Ao Niu and the Divine Poison Frog trailing behind them. They looked like a couple taking their beast pets for a leisurely stroll!

That’s right, they were on an unhurried, leisurely walk!

All the beasts were dumbstruck.

Furthermore, the starry sky under their feet seemed to be providing extremely stable footing, and the stars around them were extremely docile, placing them in no danger at all!

All the beasts were extremely shocked upon seeing this.

Was this a coincidence… or had they discovered something?

Most of the beasts felt like it was the latter. After all, if this were just a coincidence, only a stupid c\*nt would be walking around aimlessly in a place like this!

An Lin’s gaze constantly roamed around him as he maintained his Divine Inspection Technique and ran through a series of high-speed calculations in its head.

All the stars within this starry sky were constantly changing locations!

They were like real stars being influenced by faint gravitational forces as they revolved around extremely complex trajectories. If one didn’t survey the situation around them with extreme attention to detail, it would be very difficult to notice this.

The light shining from each of the stars stacked in layers under everyone’s feet, thereby forming the basis upon which they stood!

The type and amount of star power contained in each star was different, and they weren’t all equidistant away from one another either.

The stars in the sky were constantly moving, so the starlight stacked up underfoot would also be constantly changing. When there wasn’t enough starlight converging to one place, one’s footing would give away, and they would be engulfed by the starry sky…

The reason why An Lin was constantly maintaining his Divine Inspection Technique was so that he could find the best way forward! A path upon which the most starlight converged!

The distribution of the stars, their brightness, the trajectories at which they revolved, the amount of starlight converging underfoot…

All these parameters were within his range of calculations, and this applied to all the stars within a radius of several dozen kilometers.

The path he had been walking had been extremely stable and safe, thereby vindicating his judgment!

It looked like the stars struck according to the density of starlight converging under one’s feet.

Perhaps it was a coincidence, but the direction An Lin was walking in was taking his group closer and closer to the red floating continent. After looking up into the sky, they could already see the upside-down mushroom houses.

This was a very unsettling feeling. It was as if there were an upside-down world above their heads.

### The Real Vast Land of Blood

At that time An Lin forced one of the beasts of the Divine Guardian Squad, who was stealthily following his group, as a matter of testing whether it would be possible to overcome the restrictive barrier and enter the floating continent without being killed, after the red light in the center of the continent floating has weakened unexpectedly.

As An Lin suspected, even though the shadow python was attacked, it managed to survive and successfully enter the floating continent. An Lin then realized that in this reversed world, the gravity of the floating continent is prioritized as the ground once you bypass the restrictive barrier. This being the perfect opportunity to get onto the floating continent.

Thus, the two of them, along with a cow and a frog, began to fly toward the floating continent.

The groundhog and all the remaining beasts also unleashed all their power to fly toward the floating continent. They were doing this to fight for the Kirin Blood Jade, but most importantly, it was also to escape from this accursed place!

Streaks of light flashed toward the upside-down floating continent.

Countless stars erupted into the air in hot pursuit, creating a majestic scene akin to a waterfall of reverse shooting stars.

However, the stars weren’t scenery; they were terrifying killers.

One spirit beast after another had their bodies pierced by the stars, and they died amid a chorus of bloodcurdling cries.

Some of the fast-flying spirit beasts managed to bypass the restrictive barrier with great difficulty, only to be mercilessly sliced into countless pieces by the beams of concentrated energy.

In the end, only the groundhog and two other members of the Divine Guardian Squad managed to survive. They were all soul beasts at the Soul Formation Pinnacle Stage!

An Lin and the others arrived on the floating continent earlier than the groundhog, and they had already set off in pursuit of the shadow python as well as for the Kirin Blood Jade.

There was no doubt that the largest mushroom on this floating continent was most likely where the Kirin Blood Jade was located.
However, as they headed towards the largest mushroom in the center of the floating continent, An Lin and his group, as well as the Peerless Saber Demon and the remaining survivors of the Divine Guardian Squad, were suddenly attacked by Demonic Blood Beasts with terrifying auras.

After a brief battle, where both An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were underestimated by their opponents, Xu Xiaolan killed one and wounded another while An Lin delivered the fatal blow. Meanwhile the groundhog, after great difficulties managed to defeat his opponent, however at that moment new opponents more terrifying than the first ones appeared.

They were none other than Gluttony and Lust, two of the Four Great Ferocious Beasts of the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool, who had sworn allegiance to the Demonic Blood Kirin, who were supposed to be dead, but unexpectedly appeared on this floating continent. Originally they were beings from the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage, however for some reason their current aura is at most Return to Void Initial Stage.

After a battle that showed out to be unexpectedly easy, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan managed to kill Lust, while Gluttony who had been enmeshed by Gundam Three managed to escape back to the largest mushroom building in the center of the floating continent. However in that moment they were unexpectedly attacked and imprisoned by a figure who hid in the shadows, but the most shocking was the identity of that figure, he was none other than the Demonic Blood Kirin who was believed to be dead.

He revealed that this floating continent was the real vast land of blood, which is actually a prison created by Pangu to arrest him and that the story that the Vast Land of Blood would spill over into the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool and contaminate all beasts transforming them into irrational killing machines, it’s also a lie, the reason for the leakage of Vast Land of Blood’s aura is that Pangu left this place a long time ago and this small world became unstable, which caused the aura leak, but the self-repairing system of this small world is already working and will lock him in that place, which is why he needs the help of An Lin and Xu Xiaolan to open the exit on Blood Star and allow her to get out of this prison.

## Subduing the Demonic Blood Kirin and Returning to the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool

He is unable to leave this place on his own, as he would be obliterated by the eyes of Pangu, also known as Heavenly Judgment, which is nothing more than a trace of the powers of laws left by Pangu to prevent him from running away.

However there is an outlet on the floating continent (Blood Star), but he is unable to even get close to it because of his very high cultivation base, the same goes for his pets, Lust and Gluttony, so he has captured the beasts from the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool who manage to reach this place to steal their Kirin Blood Jade to try to open the passage, but unfortunately they are very weak and die immediately without being able to give them their freedom.

But when he saw An Lin and Xu Xioalan he saw them as his lucky stars, as they are both the most powerful Soul Formation Stage cultivators he has ever seen and he has a great chance to set him free.

Shortly after freeing An Lin, Xu Xiaolan and the others from restraint, without fear that they would run away, as this was impossible with him present, he showed them the Kirin Blood Jade and started flexing without restrictions, claiming that a Kirin Blood Jade (which is nothing more than the accumulation of all the powers of a Kirin when he dies) as perfect as this, can only be worthy of him and all the other people who covet him are unworthy to have him.

He then started introducing the Kirin Blood Jade to each of An Lin's group, revealing their strengths and emphasizing that they are unworthy to own it, however when An Lin's turn came, something unexpected happened.

An Lin vomited An Kirin out of his sea of ​​energy and while everyone was shocked by this situation An Kirin attacked and swallowed the Kirin Blood Jade, which was absorbed by him and transformed into his clothes.

When the Demonic Blood Kirin managed to recover from his shocked state he went crazy seeing his Kirin Blood Jade disappear in this way, he then wanted to kill An Kirin to recover his Kirin Blood Jade but was unable to harm him as a slave master connection had been established between them, and when he tried to attack An Lin he was also unable to harm him, as a pet contract was established between them.

Seeing that he could do nothing with An Kirin and An Lin, just as he could not recover his Kirin Blood Jade he felt completely helpless.

After Demonic Blood Kirin realized that nothing could be done, he revealed to An Lin and his group his real name, Dongfang Zhuangshi and told An Lin that he couldn't live without him.

After realizing how ambiguous his statement was Dongfang Zhuangshi then clarified the misunderstanding of his statement and explained to An Lin that in fact Kirin Blood Jade is the manifestation of his essence, while the person standing before An Lin is now a manifestation of Kirin's sentient demon blood will. That way he needs to be constantly close to his body, otherwise he will cease to exist.

So since An Lin took his Kirin Blood Jade he should take responsibility and let him stay with him, however he doesn't need to be constantly with An Lin, it will be enough for him to absorb An Lin's energy at intervals, as soon as he accumulates enough energy he can recover his strength and rebuild a body of mythological animals, at that moment he can live independently and leave An Lin.

Without another solution An Lin could only accept it and so Dongfang Zhuangshi joined An Lin's party.

After Dongfang Zhuangshi officially joined An Lin's group, it was now time to release him from Pangu prison. He immediately took An Lin and his group towards the central region of the floating continent.

There, the passage between the two worlds existed, in the form of a huge blue gate more than a kilometer away, from within which a threatening icy aura exuded and threatened to freeze the space around it.

Dongfang Zhuangshi then told An Lin that the passage is guarded by a frost symbol carved by Pangu and has extremely frightening restraining power over the creatures on his cultivation base. However, its effects on Soul Formation Stage cultivators, such as An Lin and Xu Xiaolan, are minimal.

The frost symbol left behind by Pangu would increase in power as you walk further into the gate. An Lin can use his flame power to dissipate the power of frost, and when he reaches about a kilometer at the gate, he will find a core of power there. All An Lin needs to do is destroy this core of power so that Dongfang Zhuangshi can get out of this prison.

An Lin and Xu Xiaolan walked together towards Pangu's sigil and used combined power from the Destruction of Sun and Stars and managed to destroy the core of power, however at that moment Pangu's eyes appeared in the sky over the floating continent and looked at An Lin and Xu Xiaolan, but did nothing more and disappeared immediately, with the power of the restriction over him destroyed Dongfang Zhuangshi got his freedom and can get out of this prison.

However, before leaving, he kept the Vast Land of Blood, which was nothing more than a portable floating continent.

## Trivia

* According to the Jade Bone Immortal Bug, Heavenly Basin is a natural formation that has existed since Pangu created heaven and earth.
* The three phenomenon unique to the Vast Land of Blood are Oppressive Stars, Heavenly Judgement and Almighty Reversal.
