Heaven knows exactly how deep that sinister Celestial Immortal has ventured at this moment.

Indeed, for Celestial Immortals of the same level, unless one seizes the opportunity, is advantaged by time, place, and harmony, or unless the opponent is determined to fight to the death.

If one is determined to flee, it is generally extremely difficult to kill them.

After waiting in place for three days, with Superdimensional Perception fully activated, he still didn't see that sinister man emerging from the Sea of Clouds.

It seems he is truly trapped.

Lu Ren sighed for no particular reason; these Tribulation Cultivators all seem quite stubborn, preferring to stay trapped in the Dark Zone, still utterly bewildered yet unwilling to die under his axe.

After hesitating a little, Lu Ren finally turned away and left.

Two days later, Lu Ren slowly manifested from within the void, his brows slightly furrowed, his eyes opening and closing with the Celestial Eye Divine Technique shining upon the Sea of Clouds like a bull's-eye.

Amidst the surging sea of mist, it still remained unfathomably deep, a pitch-black void, imperceptible, inaudible, and utterly silent.

Lu Ren slowly withdrew his gaze, confirming in his heart that the other was indeed deeply trapped in this Dark Zone, unable to return.

After all, if he went down and didn't emerge within a day, he too would be drawn into the Dark Zone, unable to extricate himself.

After utterly defeating this group of Tribulation Cultivators, Lu Ren did not intend to pursue them further. This sinister man ventured deep into the Dark Zone, with no hope of resurfacing again.

As for the other, spending two days here at this moment, using Celestial Immortal means, would have long escaped. Even if Lu Ren wanted to track them, it would be to no avail.

After all, each of them possesses exceedingly clever escape techniques, likely having already used various means and Secret Techniques to conceal their tracks.

Even Lu Ren is well-practiced in such matters, knowing that if anything was to slip, the consequences could be unpredictable.

Without further delay, Lu Ren resumed his journey along the Path of Success, turning into a stream of light and rushing forward along the winding road.

After nearly half a year of relentless acceleration, Lu Ren finally sensed the presence of the Jade Emperor, Tathagata, and Queen Mother of the West.

These three immediately noticed Lu Ren lingering behind them, instantly accelerating their Shield Technique speed as if avoiding a disaster. Seeing this, Lu Ren didn't hesitate, surging forth True Power, accelerating in pursuit.

Repeatedly, the Jade Emperor and Tathagata found Lu Ren clinging to them like a stubborn leech, truly annoying.

Tathagata's eyes flashed with a dangerous look, viciously suggesting, "Why don't we seize the chance to eliminate him?"

The Jade Emperor shook his head helplessly, saying nothing. If they could have done it, they would have done it long ago. Though, previously upon meeting again, they had more than harbored such thoughts; if not for Lu Ren exuding the aura of a Half-step Ultimate Celestial Immortal, they would have long rolled up their sleeves to grind his bones and scatter his ashes, annihilating him completely.

How could they possibly watch him swaggering right under their noses without acting? Such provocation made them twitch with irritation.

Hearing this, the Queen Mother of the West couldn't help but chuckle, saying, "He's already risen. Honestly, over these years, the blood of the Human Race on your hands, if not over a billion, is in the tens of millions. Now, as the Human Race's fortune retaliates, sooner or later you'd have to go through a bout; waiting further, given his cultivation progression, he might enter the Golden Immortal Realm before you, overthrowing you all might lead to regrets beyond reconciliation."

The Jade Emperor's eyes flickered as he calmly said, "Junior Sister, the three of us share the same roots, and speaking these words to exclude yourself might be somewhat inappropriate."

The Queen Mother of the West showed a hint of coldness, lightly smiling, "Those I've killed were all deserving of death. Moreover, I've left a legacy among the Human Race for posterity, both emotionally and rationally, I can remain detached."

Seeing the Queen Mother of the West's hardened words, the cracks in the already discordant group widened further, and the Jade Emperor snorted without saying more.

Inwardly, his heart was filled with murderous intent, yet the legacy left by the Supreme on the Path of Success requires the cooperative strength of the three to unlock the opportunity at its end. Otherwise, with their persistent disputes, how would it be possible to maintain harmony?

Though their words were filled with subtleties, constantly countering each other, none of them mentioned disbanding.

From four or five billion miles away, watching the fluctuating aura of the three before him, Lu Ren was puzzled. These three had been fiercely fighting for reputation in Hantu in the present era.

Now, it seemed as though under some external force, they were quite harmonious.

Considering this, Lu Ren suddenly recalled the Heaven-Reaching who entered from here along the Path of Success, yet there's still no trace of him, causing a slight unease within Lu Ren's heart.

Could it be that this guy has long perished beneath the Sea of Clouds in that very Dark Zone?

After all, Heaven-Reaching sees himself highly, relying on his skills and courage to charge ahead recklessly, also being well-protected by the Four Immortal Slaying Swords, initiating the Immortal Slaying Sword Array would make him matchless at his level.

However, to speak truthfully, on the Path of Success, Celestial Immortals are almost ubiquitous, with 99.999% of them never touching the threshold of the Golden Immortal Realm in their lifetime, not even experiencing the Celestial Immortal Extreme Realm.

The Celestial Immortals who come to the Path of Success, despite the majority holding onto their convictions with no regrets, of those who've witnessed the endless bizarre sight of the Golden Immortal Dao Experience on the Path of Success, Lu Ren has seen only once in all these years.

That was the figure of a Golden Immortal seen only once in nearly a million years by Huang Gong on Xuankong Mountain.

After this journey, Lu Ren's playful intent settled, as did the schemes of the Jade Emperor, Tathagata, and the Queen Mother of the West ahead, all racing forward mechanically with numb faces.

The four of them, one after another, had no mind for private contests anymore, and even maintaining such high speeds gradually turned into a torment that could be called painful.

Asking someone to run without rest for thousands or tens of thousands of years, anyone would be unable to endure it.

Along this journey, Lu Ren saw many strange creatures diving and dancing above and below the Sea of Clouds, some so massive that half their bodies protruded from the Sea of Clouds, resembling a continent as vast as a Solar System.

The splendor and magnificence were truly astonishing.

As for danger, to tell the truth, in such a dreadfully monotonous environment, Lu Ren somewhat looked forward to encountering potentially manageable crises as a flavoring to the boring journey.

However, to his surprise, after tens of thousands of years of running, Lu Ren still hadn't encountered the dangers previously emphasized by Huang Gong on Xuankong Mountain.

Yet in these ten thousand years, he encountered four or five temporary resting spots like the ones he'd seen before, mostly located at spatial anomalies, safe from the surging eerie mist behind.
