The first battle between the Human Race and the Demon-Monster Alliance, after several waves of ups and downs, finally concluded.
Both sides suffered losses in this battle, but overall, the Human Race gained a significant advantage.
The Human Race lost a group of True Immortals, a portion of Heavenly Immortals, and one Immortal Lord.
However, the Demon-Monster races had three Holy Lands and numerous Grotto-Heavens wiped out, with countless True Immortals and Heavenly Immortals lost.
Furthermore, the Human Race managed to slay three Immortal Lords from the Demon-Monster races in this battle.
Whether calculated by the ratio of casualties or the achieved results, the Human Race held the upper hand.
The one who made the greatest contribution in this battle turned out to be a Human merchant named Xiao Youyi.
This man was merely the owner of a merchant caravan, previously unremarkable and low-key, with no outstanding qualities apart from possessing many rare treasures.
However, during this war, he revealed his true capabilities.
The Barbarian Slave Bandits, who struck fear into the hearts of many, were actually his subordinates, completely obeying his commands.
Under his direction, they breached two major Holy Lands of the Demon-Monster races and cleared over ten Grotto-Heavens, achieving formidable war merits for this conflict.
In addition, according to unofficial sources, the strength controlled by Xiao was far from limited to this.
He seemed to command Immortal Lord-level powerhouses and was rumored to have defeated the Blazing Heaven Demon Lord.
This immediately made Xiao Youyi's merchant caravan sought after throughout the Immortal Realm, becoming an object of acquaintance for many individuals and factions.
To commend Xiao Youyi for his contributions in this battle, the Palace Lord of Jade Void Palace and the Palace Lord of Qiankun Palace jointly hosted a banquet for Xiao Youyi in the Jun Tian Realm.
Xiao Youyi was rewarded with a batch of treasures, and it was publicly pledged that both palaces would engage in various forms of cooperation, including commercial ventures, with Xiao Youyi's merchant caravan in the future.
Besides Xiao Youyi, another individual who distinguished himself on the battlefield was Zhang Yi, the Peak Master of Morality Peak in Jade Void Palace.
When surrounded by demons and monsters on the battlefield, he managed to gather many severely injured Human Heavenly Immortals into an immortal artifact.
This single act alone saved the lives of nearly 20 Human Heavenly Immortals, reducing the Human Race's losses by nearly half.
Regarding Zhang Yi's merits, the Palace Lord of Jade Void Palace had already decided to focus on his cultivation.
This so-called focused cultivation was understood by everyone to mean grooming him to become an Immortal Lord.
Despite the envy and jealousy from many within Jade Void Palace, no one could voice any objections.
It could be foreseen that in the near future, Zhang Yi, the Peak Master of Morality Peak, would also become an Immortal Lord powerhouse.
On Morality Peak, besides Zhang Yi, there was also the rather detestable Jia Ren.
At a critical moment, he broke through the encirclement and rushed around, relaying information for the Human Race and seeking reinforcements.
This allowed the Human Race to react swiftly and played a significant role in turning the tide of the battle in their favor.
Jia Ren also received substantial rewards from Jade Void Palace this time and had a high probability of being heavily utilized in the future.
In addition to the significant contributions of these three individuals, many other Immortals also earned merits in this battle and were duly rewarded.
Xiao Fei had not anticipated that the three individuals who made the greatest contributions in this great war were all his clones.
He had gained a great deal from this battle.
Besides his three clones receiving rewards for their merits, he also obtained the inheritance of Immortal Lord Bing Huo.
Immortal Lord Bing Huo's over a million years of cultivation and comprehension were all passed down to him.
This was a treasure far more precious than cultivation techniques or immortal stones; it was a fortunate event that might not occur even after living several lifetimes.
The laws comprehended by Immortal Lord Bing Huo were also fire-elemental laws, which Xiao Fei already possessed.
However, as the saying goes, a different perspective can shed new light. Even with the same law, different individuals comprehend it from different angles and directions, offering strong reference value.
Beyond laws, for an Immortal Lord to advance to Golden Immortal, one must comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
This Dao is superior to laws and is a principle that all beings across the myriad worlds must abide by.
Golden Immortal powerhouses can master this Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, using it to attack or restrain enemies.
Their might far surpasses what can be achieved by mastering a few laws.
Sometimes, certain Great Daos of Heaven and Earth are formless and traceless, yet everyone is influenced by them.
For instance, Xiao Fei possessed the Creation Jade Disk. Anyone who intended to deal with Xiao Fei or seize his Creation Jade Disk would be deliberately targeted by certain Great Daos of Heaven and Earth, leading to constant misfortune, repeated setbacks, and all endeavors going awry.
Stronger individuals might fare slightly better, but those too weak would be tormented to death.
Immortal Lord Bing Huo had remained in the Immortal Lord realm for hundreds of thousands of years, constantly seeking to break through to the Golden Immortal realm.
Although he had not yet comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, after years of exploration, he had at least found a glimmer of insight.
This insight would be of great help to Xiao Fei's future cultivation and advancement.
In addition to Immortal Lord Bing Huo's million years of comprehension, he also received his ultimate treasure, the Southern Bright Flame.
The Southern Bright Flame uses immortal energy or spiritual energy as fuel. Any treasure in the Immortal Realm would turn to ash before it.
With this, he gained another trump card.
Xiao Fei felt immensely indebted to Immortal Lord Bing Huo for his many favors and felt he could never repay them.
Feeling deeply indebted, Xiao Fei sought out Huang Feifei and asked her to use the Law of Life to reverse Immortal Lord Bing Huo's vitality.
To repay Immortal Lord Bing Huo, Xiao Fei intended to resurrect him.
Huang Feifei spent a month to finally reverse Immortal Lord Bing Huo's vitality.
As for Immortal Lord Bing Huo being injured to the point of only having a head and a toe remaining, it was not an issue for Xiao Fei.
He directly attached the toe to the neck and submerged both in a large vat filled with medicinal liquid.
Immortal Lord Bing Huo's physical body rapidly regenerated under the nourishment of the medicinal liquid.
However, Immortal Lord Bing Huo's current state was one of recovery from injury, which was quite different from Xiao Fei cultivating his clones.
Once his body fully recovered, he would be able to return to the Immortal Lord realm.
The energy consumption required for this process was terrifying, but fortunately, Xiao Fei was wealthy and possessed numerous immortal herbs in his spatial dimension.
Immortal Lord Bing Huo's body was placed in the Second Jianmu World, and after more than a hundred years, he finally made a full recovery.
"Where am I?"
Immortal Lord Bing Huo climbed out of the medicinal vat, looking at the world before him, completely different from the Immortal Realm, and felt very confused.
According to legends, some people are reborn or transmigrate after death. Had he died and transmigrated?
If he were to start anew like this, it seemed not bad; it might add a little excitement and make life less tedious.
If I wish for a new life, Heaven shall not deny it!
As Immortal Lord Bing Huo was lost in thought, a rather discordant figure appeared before him.
"Congratulations, Immortal Lord, on your recovery!"
Xiao Fei greeted Immortal Lord Bing Huo with a smile.
"So it was you, kid, who saved me again!"
Xiao Fei cupped his hands and said with a smile.
"I am greatly indebted to you, Immortal Lord, and feel I have no way to repay you, so I can only bring you back to life and repay you properly!"
Immortal Lord Bing Huo waved his hand impatiently.
"Didn't I say it? I'm tired of living!
"Try living for over a million years!"
"It's too boring!"
Immortal Lord Bing Huo knew he would still face this monotonous Immortal Realm, living a dull and uninteresting life, and felt a bit disappointed.
"If you are truly bored, Immortal Lord, you could also wait until I have repaid my gratitude before taking your own life."
Xiao Fei offered another suggestion to repay his debt.
