A hundred million years later.

Time flies; ever since Zhou Sui eradicated the Dark Clan Immortal Kings lurking within the Human clan, the Immortal Realm's Human Territory has become exceedingly peaceful, with large-scale internal conflicts occurring less frequently.

Even Dao-transformed beasts have become quite rare.

Because once such beasts appear, they are immediately captured and imprisoned in the Hell dimension.

Over time, the development of the Immortal Realm's Human clan has actually accelerated and reached unprecedented heights.

As for the Xuanhuang Sect's growth, with Zhou Sui's assistance, it seems as if it has entered the fast lane, growing rapidly, and its influence has spread across 1.296 billion major states.

Of course, more importantly, the Xuanhuang Sect has begun to appear within the Immortal Realm's Human clan, no longer concealing itself.

Because the current Xuanhuang Sect no longer fears the other sect forces of the Human clan.

Even if they encounter attacks from royal factions, there is no fear whatsoever.

...

Lihuo State.

This is a renowned major state of the Immortal Realm's Human clan, rich in resources, famous for producing various Immortal flames, particularly the Nanming Lihuo, hence named Lihuo State.

In a secret cave dwelling within a certain mountain range, this is where Great Luo Golden Immortal Tang Zishu undergoes closed-door training. Born in the royal faction Taiyi Sect, he is hailed as one of the most promising Great Luo Golden Immortals to advance to the Immortal King.

"Two hundred million years of closed-door training, and I've achieved some minor gains."

"However, there's still a considerable distance to the Immortal King Realm."

"It's truly difficult to advance to an Immortal King."

At this moment, Tang Zishu opened his eyes, his body emanating a powerful Great Luo Territory, causing tremors in the surrounding Heaven and Earth Laws, buzzing to the extreme.

He felt deeply moved inside.

For a Daluo Golden Immortal, a mere two hundred million years is nothing, just a fleeting moment.

Unfortunately, even after spending so much time, he's still unable to advance to the Immortal King Realm.

If he were to forcefully break through, he might face annihilation of both body and soul.

Even as a Daluo Golden Immortal of the Taiyi Sect, with Ancient Kings within the sect providing countless resources, it's still not an easy feat to advance to an Immortal King.

In reality, many Daluo Golden Immortals like him exist within the Human clan.

If breaking through were truly that easy, the Human clan wouldn't only have just over a thousand Immortal Kings to date.

Upon becoming an Immortal King, one truly soars to the skies, capable of ruling a region and becoming a king.

Thus becoming a significant figure within the Human clan, wielding supreme authority.

If Daluo Golden Immortals are mere minor lords, then Immortal Kings are genuine monarchs, governing countless lords and Daluo Golden Immortals.

"I wonder how the Taiyi Sect is faring now."

Tang Zishu looked extremely solemn.

To be honest, the reason he chose not to stay at the Taiyi Sect to break through to the Immortal King Realm is that he sensed a huge danger and malevolence lurking within the sect.

If he stayed in the Taiyi Sect, he would undoubtedly fail to break through and might even face annihilation.

Ever since the Taiyi Sect's Immortal Kings returned from the Eternal Night Land, they have become rather peculiar, completely different from before.

He even sensed occasional wisps of dark aura leaking from the Immortal Kings.

This made him even more wary of the Taiyi Sect's Immortal Kings.

However, these suspicions deep in his heart have not been spoken aloud, because he has no evidence.

Even if he were to speak out, nothing would change.

It might even trigger taboos, leading to his own annihilation.

So he found an excuse to leave the Taiyi Sect and hide in a secret cave dwelling in Lihuo State.

Unfortunately, he is still unable to break through to the Immortal King Realm.

Perhaps he still needs to gain an opportunity to become an Immortal King, advancing his cultivation further.

Without the assistance of such an opportunity, he estimates that it will be challenging to become an Immortal King in this lifetime.

"If I want to become an Immortal King, perhaps I need to travel around."

"Who knows, I might find the opportunity to break through to an Immortal King."

Tang Zishu took a deep breath, deciding to leave his cave dwelling and go outside for some fresh air.

After all, cultivation also requires a proper balance between tension and relaxation; constantly staying tense would be detrimental to cultivation.

Swish!

With this thought, his figure flashed, and he immediately stepped out of his cave dwelling.

"Strange, what exactly is going on?"

"Why has the resentment and death energy between Heaven and Earth decreased so much?"

"The Immortal Qi around has become incredibly pure."

Just after leaving his cave dwelling, with the sharpness of a Daluo Golden Immortal, Tang Zishu immediately noticed the changes in the Heavenly environment, remarkably different from two hundred million years ago.

He clearly remembered that before he began his closed-door cultivation, the Immortal Realm's Human Territory was filled with resentment and death energy, and these negative energies merged with the Immortal Qi, polluting it.

Thereby making the Immortal Qi contain traces of impurities.

Of course, since these impurities posed no significant threat to the Immortals, they didn't pay much heed to them.

But in reality, if too much was absorbed, it would easily lead to a state of mental disturbance.

Especially in moments of emotional agitation, under the influence of this resentment, Immortals would become more irritable.

This was like a powder keg, prone to explosion at the slightest spark.

Because of this, even within the Human Territory, the conflicts among Human Clan Immortals did not decrease significantly.

If any treasure were to appear, it would lead to life-and-death struggles among them, fighting until one side perishes.
