After some adjustments, Xiao Fei had transformed the Third Jianmu World into a place specifically for cultivating high-end combat power.
The giant army had played a crucial role in several major battles. They were loyal to Xiao Fei, brave in combat, and unafraid of death, making them his most outstanding warriors. To that end, Xiao Fei selected another 500 giants from the Second Jianmu World and placed them in the Third World for meticulous cultivation, serving as reserve forces for the future.
In addition, Huang Feifei had arranged for people to stake out the Second World, selecting outstanding individuals from the human race for careful cultivation. Once they had achieved success in their cultivation, they would be sent to the Third World for key development, ultimately becoming pillars of strength.
Even Fei Yu had been frequently visiting the Second Jianmu World. He was filled with a sense of novelty upon discovering he had so many descendants. It seemed his efforts during that period had not been in vain. To distinguish his descendants from the Golden Peng tribe, Fei Yu named this new race the Kunpeng tribe. On occasion, when in a good mood, Fei Yu would also impart some teachings, leaving behind a legacy for the Kunpeng tribe. With the special attention of their ancestor, the Kunpeng tribe developed rapidly, and a large number of talented bird-people emerged within the tribe.
To quickly cultivate a large number of talents and enhance combat effectiveness, Xiao Fei moved many accumulated immortal pills, immortal herbs, and other treasures from his spatial dimension and sent them to the Third World for safekeeping.
In the Third Jianmu World, Bing Huo Xian Jun and Yuan, an old man and a child, were getting along famously. When Xiao Fei found them, Yuan was sitting on Bing Huo Xian Jun's shoulder, her small hands tugging at his ear.
"What business do you have with me, kid?"
"It's like this, I'd like you to help me identify someone. I wonder if Immortal Lord recognizes this person."
"Who?"
Bing Huo Xian Jun was a bit curious, wondering who it was that required his identification.
"It's like this, last time I broke into a sacred land of the demon race, and within it, I discovered a massive blood lake..."
Xiao Fei described in detail the process of finding the woman's body. Upon hearing this, Bing Huo Xian Jun's brow furrowed, and he fell into deep thought. It seemed that in his million-plus years of life, he knew quite a bit of inside information.
With a flash of light, Xiao Fei produced a crystal coffin before him, sealing a young girl within.
"Wow! This sister is so beautiful!"
Yuan had already jumped down from Bing Huo Xian Jun's shoulder and was leaning over the edge of the coffin, peering inside. The girl in the coffin wore a blood-red long dress, but the pair of fluffy ears atop her head revealed her non-human identity.
Bing Huo Xian Jun glanced into the coffin and then revealed an expression of "as expected."
"If I'm not mistaken, you've gotten yourself into big trouble, offending someone you shouldn't have."
"Who is this person?"
Xiao Fei recalled that the demon lord at the time had said the same thing. He thought the other party was trying to scare him. Moreover, in such a hostile situation, he wouldn't return the person based on a few words.
"Most of the demons you usually see are likely hermaphroditic."
Xiao Fei nodded. The truly pure-blooded demons he had encountered were all hermaphroditic, naturally conceived by heaven and earth. Only a few demons who had interbred with humans or demon races had distinctions between male and female and could reproduce. These impure-blooded demons were not recognized by the true demons of the immortal realm.
"But you might not know that within the demon race, there is a race with extremely noble bloodlines, known as Demon Gods. They hold supreme status among the demons. The Demon God race has distinctions between male and female; the females are all stunningly beautiful, and the males are exceptionally handsome. However, the Demon God race possesses extraordinary talent and is extremely rare. The total number of Demon Gods in the entire immortal realm has never exceeded 500. Therefore, every Demon God is recorded. This one here, a million years ago, caused quite a stir, and even among the Demon Gods, she held a high position. Now that you've snatched her body and brought it here, do you think those demons will let you off? So, young man, don't just snatch anything you see."
Bing Huo Xian Jun stared at Xiao Fei with a half-smile as he spoke. Xiao Fei ignored Bing Huo Xian Jun's teasing remarks and continued to ask, "Do you know why she became like this, or where her soul is?"
"I'm not entirely clear on the specific reason. It's said to be related to an internal factional struggle within the demon race. After that incident, she disappeared and hasn't appeared in the immortal realm."
Bing Huo Xian Jun shook his head. A million years ago, he had only just become an Earth Immortal and was a mere nobody in the immortal realm. His status was too low, and the information he could access was too limited.
"Do you know her specific strength? If I find her soul and revive her, can you defeat her?"
Bing Huo Xian Jun shook his head upon hearing this.
"If it were her strength at her peak, I definitely couldn't defeat her. Besides, her soul is nowhere to be found. If there were a way to revive her, the demons would have done so long ago."
Xiao Fei remained noncommittal, but a sly thought began to form in his mind. Just then, he saw Yuan reaching her small hand into the crystal coffin and gently caressing the face of the woman within.
"Yuan, what are you doing?"
"This sister's face is so tender and smooth!"
Xiao Fei grabbed Yuan by the back and lifted her up.
"Let go of me! Let go of me!"
Yuan couldn't break free and could only flail her little hands and feet in the air.
"How did you break the seal just now and get your hand in?"
Xiao Fei ignored Yuan's struggles and inquired. Before he had put the woman's body into his spatial dimension, he had set up layers of seals. The crystal coffin before him was one of these seals. Although not unbreakable, it wasn't that easy to breach. Yuan's small body, with a strength inferior to even an Earth Immortal, could easily break through the seals he had laid.
"I don't know! I'm sorry, I didn't know you had seals here!"
Yuan thought she had accidentally broken the seal and quickly apologized. She didn't realize that such an apology was more hurtful to one's pride. Xiao Fei, as a Heavenly Immortal, had painstakingly set up seals, yet when someone broke through them, there was no resistance at all.
At this moment, Bing Huo Xian Jun also noticed the anomaly. The seals on the crystal coffin were such that even if he personally intervened, he couldn't do it as easily and freely as Yuan.
"Do it again! Let me see!"
"I don't dare anymore, I won't dare anymore!"
Yuan thought Xiao Fei was speaking sarcastically and shook her head repeatedly.
"Why are you so fierce? She's just a child!"
Bing Huo Xian Jun gently picked Yuan up and placed her in front of the crystal coffin, allowing Yuan to reach out and try again. Only then did Yuan, emboldened, reach out towards the coffin once more. This time, both Xiao Fei and Bing Huo Xian Jun focused their full attention on observing.
The moment Yuan extended her hand, a mysterious force emerged from the Third World, coordinating with her movements. This mysterious force easily dissolved the seals Xiao Fei had set up, and Yuan's small hand once again entered the crystal coffin without any obstruction.
