I’m Really Not A Supreme Master!

Burial God Wasteland!

As the four characters were uttered, Nan Feng and the others all shivered.

“Burial God Wasteland… What a domineering name!”

Dugu Yuqing couldn’t help but mutter, “Does this name have any origin?”

Yun Xi tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said:

“I heard from Grandpa before that this vast wilderness really did bury divine spirits, and it seems there are many intimidating things there… I’m not very clear on the specifics though!”

At this time, Wu Dade followed up with another question, “So, what kind of existence is a ‘divine spirit’? It seems much stronger than a Saint Emperor!”

After all, they had encounters with divine spirits before and after.

In the Yin Realm, when they were subduing the Xuan Wu turtle, it had carried a statue of a True God with it.

Later on, people like the Tianxuan Ancestor seemed to be worshiping a god known as “Mysterious Yin True God!”

Yun Xi said:

“The Saint Emperor is merely the peak of the Saint Path. After the Saint Path comes the Divine Path.”

“The first realm of the Divine Path is called the Dao Fusion Realm, followed by realms such as Condensing Spirit, Refining Spirit, Uniting Spirit, Communicating Spirit, and Divinity Transformation. Only upon the perfection of the Divinity Transformation Realm can one be associated with half the character ‘divine’!”

“There are different levels of divine spirits, but they are all very strong. Even the lowest level ‘Wandering God’ can make all the spirits in the world worship and enjoy offerings.”

After listening, Wu Dade, Nan Feng, and the others began to understand.

This cultivation sequence… is the Divine Path!

“What level is a True God?”

Jiang Li followed up with the question.

Yun Xi said, “True God… I haven’t seen one before, they must all be in heaven.”

Jiang Li understood; he knew that the “heaven” Yun Xi referred to was naturally the Thirty-Three Heavens of the Divine Realm.

They took turns asking Yun Xi, learning a lot about this world.

Each realm in the Yang Realm is immensely vast.

And the Divine Path is the pursuit of all cultivators.

Unlike the broken Yin Realm, in the Yang Realm, the Saint Path is more complete, the heaven and earth are fully realized, so for the cultivators here, traversing this stage is not difficult.

Even in the Yang Realm, even if one completes the Saint Path, they are not called Emperor.

The Saint Emperor, in the Yang Realm, is merely referred to as a practitioner in the Peeking Path realm.

Only once they enter this stage, can they start to glimpse the Divine Path, hence the name Peeking Path.

And the Great Ruins Realm, vast and boundless, just this Burial God Wasteland alone is already a million li wide.

“Anyway, since we’re here, let’s be at ease, all of this must be within Master’s grasp!”

Nan Feng spoke.

The others nodded; whether it was the Yin Realm or the Yang Realm, as long as they could be in this mountain village, following their Master, they felt a sense of security and belonging.

This place, it was like a home.

And at this moment, not far away, Li Fan finally came over, holding Xiao Bai the cat.

“You guys have finally come back.”

Seeing the group of disciples at the entrance of the village, Li Fan couldn’t help but smile and speak!

The anxiety in his heart finally subsided.

Just now the sky was so dark, it felt like it was almost collapsing.

Now that the disciples had come back, the weather had also cleared up.

Reassured, very reassured.

The group of disciples turned around, saw Li Fan, and one by one came forward to salute.

“Greetings, Master!”

Li Fan waved his hand and smiled,

“No need for formalities, it’s good that you’re back!”

“Was there any danger on this long trip?”

Nan Feng said:

“Reporting to Master, everything went smoothly!”

She thought for a moment but still said,

“It’s just that… when we were entering the Yang Realm, Sister Jiang Xue… got separated from us.”

Li Fan was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this.

“Yang Realm…?”

He couldn’t help but look outside the village, it did feel somewhat unfamiliar!

“…What place is this?”

He couldn’t help but ask.

“This is the Great Ruins Realm!”

Yun Xi spoke up, looking at the Great Demon King, she thought that it seemed he was not a person from the Great Ruins Realm.

The Great Ruins Realm, in the countless worlds, was not renowned, and an existence as terrifying as the Great Demon King should come from a world of even higher order!

Yes, that must be it.

A hint of confusion flashed in Li Fan’s eyes.

Great Ruins Realm…

Had he and the others… entered another world??

But then he understood.

After all, a few days ago, he heard from Yun Xi, Fire Spirit, and others that someone wanted to destroy the world!

He panicked and sent the disciples away, looking for a path to escape.

Now it seemed, had the original world already been destroyed?

And did their small mountain village manage to luckily enter another world?

Thinking this, Li Fan couldn’t help but feel excited, excellent, this was too wonderful!

The end of the world had been evaded, his luck was heaven-defying!

He immediately said to Nan Feng:

“It’s alright, since Jiang Xue has also entered this world… we will naturally see her again if it’s fated.”

“Come with me back home. Tonight, Master will make you a delicious meal.”

Having survived a catastrophe, of course, it was time to celebrate with a good meal!

On hearing this, a group of disciples all became instantly delighted.

“Thank you, Master!”

They immediately headed back towards the small courtyard.

…

Meanwhile.

Burial God Wasteland.

In the endless desolation, fierce beasts roamed, and danger lurked at every turn.

In a certain part of the vast wilderness, there was another village.

At a glance, the village seemed quaint and primitive, with almost all the buildings constructed from wood.

The outskirts of the village were ringed by a peculiar grey fence, half a meter tall, built from tree branches, starkly delineating the village bounds from the outside world.

And now, at the entrance of the village, a group consisting of men, women, young, and old, were lined up in a queue.

They were clothed in primitive fashions, made from animal skins; every man exuded the rugged spirit of the Great Wilderness, nearly all of them tall and muscular, while the women were mostly dressed in coarse cloth.

At the front of the line stood an elder with white hair, hunched over in stature, but even so, it was clear that in his youth he must have been a magnificent man.

He was the chief of Wood Spirit Village, Mu Rantian!

Although Mu Rantian was old, he walked with steady and powerful steps towards a certain old vine at the front.

It was an ancient grapevine, with just a single branch remaining, exuding a certain extraordinary charm.

But… the whole vine was barely alive; its branches and leaves were wilted, with only a few yellowed leaves stubbornly clinging on.

“The people of Wood Spirit Village, young and old, pay their respects to the Vine God!”

Mu Rantian called out in a loud voice!

All present bowed deeply in respect.

Upon seeing the withered state of the old vine, Mu Rantian’s face immediately revealed a deep concern!

The Vine God… was the sacrificial spirit of Wood Spirit Village!

——The great powers of the Great Ruins Realm rarely interfered with the Burial God Wasteland; the only humans there were scattered across many primitive villages and tribes.

With danger lurking in every corner of the wilderness, resisting these terrible threats… they had to rely on sacrificial spirits!

Generally, each village or tribe would worship a sacrificial spirit, which often originated from the wilderness itself.

The sacrificial spirits varied greatly, some were powerful beasts, others extraordinary plants, and so forth…

Some sacrificial spirits were benevolent, some bloodthirsty…

The old vine of Wood Spirit Village was revered by the villagers as the Vine God.

It had protected Wood Spirit Village for hundreds of years.

But… now the lifespan of the Vine God seemed to have reached its end.

When the Vine God withered away, turning into dead branches… Wood Spirit Village would lose its sacrificial spirit.

Without the sacrificial spirit, extinction was impending!

“All able-bodied men, except for the old, sick, and women, will leave the village from today onward, venturing into the wilderness!”

Mu Rantian declared in a loud voice:

“We must find a treasure that can prolong the life of our sacrificial spirit… otherwise, Wood Spirit Village is finished!”

“Depart!”

At his command, nearly all of the village’s adult men, equipped with bows, arrows, and spears, left Wood Spirit Village!

“Village Chief Grandpa… may I go with Brother Mu Jing and the others?”

At this moment, a girl of around sixteen or seventeen eagerly approached Mu Rantian from behind and asked.

She was dressed in coarse garments, yet her appearance was graceful, her eyes clear and her skin as fair as jade.

Mu Rantian turned and glanced at the girl, then shook his head and said:

“Wanqing, you should stay in the village…”

But Mu Wanqing stubbornly shook her head, insisting:

“No!”

“Village Chief Grandpa, my spiritual sense is the strongest. I’ll have a better chance of finding the treasure that can prolong the life of our sacrificial spirit!”

Mu Rantian looked at Mu Wanqing with a deep sense of helplessness.

“Village Chief Grandpa, let Wanqing go with us; we’ll take good care of her.”

Just then, a youth clad in leather armor, holding an iron spear, walked over.

His name was Mu Jing, one of the strongest among the young generation in Wood Spirit Village, and his cultivation had already reached the Saint Path’s Slaying Self Realm!

Mu Rantian pondered for a moment before finally nodding his head.

It was settled—if their sacrificial spirit truly passed away, these children would face an even harsher situation! Letting them go out and gain experience might be for the better.

“Go then,” he said.

“Thank you, Village Chief Grandpa!”

Mu Wanqing cheered at once.

They immediately left Wood Spirit Village and headed towards the depths of the wilderness.

En route, led by Mu Wanqing’s powerful spiritual sense, they were able to avoid the territories of many formidable beasts.

“Wanqing, where are we headed?”

After some time, the group came to a stop, and Mu Jing looked towards Mu Wanqing.

They had ventured deep into the wilderness in search of a treasure, yet they lacked any clear direction.

It was all down to luck in the vast wilderness.

Mu Wanqing paused and calmed herself, carefully sensing her surroundings.

“Hm?”

Suddenly, as if attuning to something, she pointed in a direction and said:

“Over there… the aura seems different!”

“Spiritual Energy seems… denser than before!”

Upon hearing this, Mu Jing and the others had a slight change in expression, saying:

“That direction… Misty Mountain Ridge?”

They were quite familiar with the wilderness.

In the area indicated by Mu Wanqing, there was a mountain range perpetually shrouded in a mysterious grey mist!

According to the Village Chief Grandpa, that grey mist might be related to Yin and Yang!

They dared not explore it, as provoking something formidable could spell disaster for Wood Spirit Village, especially with dominant beings like the Howling Desolate Tiger and Skyhunter Eagle residing in that region!

“Yes! I feel like… as if the wilderness’s spiritual energy is slowly flowing towards that area…”

Mu Wanqing stated confidently.

“A treasure capable of attracting spiritual energy??”

Mu Jing pondered, then raising his head with determination in his eyes, he said:

“Let’s go!”

“No risk, no reward. To save our sacrificial spirit, let’s give it a try!”

The group of youths all nodded and advanced together!

…

And sometime later!

Back where they started, another group of people suddenly appeared!

Leading them was a man exuding wildness, his face wearing a sinister cold smile.

“Wood Spirit Village’s old vine is on its last legs, they’re searching for something to prolong the life of their sacrificial spirit…”

“Hehe, we mustn’t let them find it!”

“Only when that old vine perishes can our Pagoda Tree Spirit Village annex Wood Spirit Village!”

“Move out!”

This man, leading his group, quickly followed in pursuit!

…
