The whole world is cultivating qi, only I am cultivating the body

Turning around and sitting on the ground looking behind him, Zeng Wenyu could see a large number of centipedes constantly hitting the thin film. They seemed unable to feel the film and kept hitting it to try to break through. However, although the film was thin, it was not something the centipedes could break through. Their final fate was to fall into the magma and be burned by the high temperature.

After sitting on the ground and taking a breath, Zeng Wenyu stood up and observed the place he suddenly broke into.

This is a very vast grassland with flowers blooming here and there. The fragrance he smelled was the scent of these flowers.

There were herds of cattle and sheep on the grassland. They were not disturbed by Zeng Wenyu's sudden appearance. They lowered their heads and ate the grass on the ground. Only a sheepdog was watching Zeng Wenyu not far away, as if it was afraid that Zeng Wenyu would suddenly appear and steal the cattle and sheep from under its nose.

Looking up, there is a blue sky with white clouds floating above your head.

"How can there be a sky under this ground?"

Zeng Wenyu was very surprised. He knew that he was not teleported away by the teleportation array. He was still in the underground space. So when he saw the blue sky and white clouds, he asked subconsciously.

"That's not the real blue sky. It was created by the king with his supreme cultivation."

The voice came from the mouth of the sheepdog. It started to explain only after it was sure that Zeng Wenyu had no bad intentions towards the cattle and sheep it was looking after.

"king?"

Zeng Wenyu was puzzled. This place seemed to be vast, with grasslands everywhere and not even a single person in sight. How could there be a being called a king?

"Yes, our King, He created this place so that we can survive here."

When the sheepdog said this, he turned around, his eyes were looking into the distance, his body was crawling on the ground, and there was only respect in his tone, as if even when mentioning the "king" in his mouth, he had to be very respectful.

Seeing the sheepdog being so pious and respectful, Zeng Wenyu asked, "Can you tell me who your king is?"

"The king is the king. He is the leader and savior of all of us. If the king wants you to know, you will know. If the king does not want you to know, you will never know who the king is."

"You're talking so mysteriously? Then can you tell me where exactly this place is? How can I get out of here?"

"This is the land beyond the heaven. Unless the land beyond the heaven opens up on its own initiative, everyone will live on the land built by the king. However, since the king built this place until now, the land beyond the heaven has never opened up on its own initiative. You will live here forever, and you will never grow old, die, or get sick."

The shepherd's words made Zeng Wenyu frown. He felt that instead of saying this place was a paradise, it was more like a prison built by the king that the shepherd's dog mentioned. Once you came in, you couldn't get out. No one here could get out. Then what was the point of being immortal, undying and free from disease?

Perhaps this is a good thing for the sheepdog and other monsters here, but it is definitely not a good thing for Zeng Wenyu, because he has people he cares about.

Zeng Wenyu turned around and there were no centipedes outside the membrane. He wanted to get out through the membrane, but when his hand touched the membrane, he found that no matter how hard he tried, the membrane was very solid and there was not even a dent, and it would not let him out.

"Don't waste your time. In order to protect our safety, the king has poured almost all of his remaining strength into this protective barrier. Unless your cultivation is higher than the king's, you will never be able to get out."

Zeng Wenyu stopped his hand when he heard what the sheepdog said. He turned to look at the sheepdog and said, "You put almost all your remaining power into the barrier? Are you saying that your king is actually dead?"

"No, the king just fell into a deep sleep. He is not dead. He will wake up eventually and lead our demon race to the peak again!"

The sheepdog was in a calm mood. It looked at Zeng Wenyu quietly without any extra emotion. The cattle and sheep it was herding were also eating the grass slowly on the grassland.

Zeng Wenyu had a guess in his mind, and he asked the sheepdog: "Do you know where your king is sleeping? Can you take me to see your king?"

"You want to see the king? It's not easy to see the king. Unless the king agrees to let you see him, I can't take you there."

"Didn't you say that the king has fallen into a deep sleep? Why did you agree to an audience with me?"

"Although the king is asleep, his consciousness permeates the whole world, so he will naturally know what you are saying. If you really want to see the king, just shout loudly into the sky, and the king will naturally respond to you."

Zeng Wenyu nodded, raised his head and shouted loudly to the sky a few times. Just a few seconds later, a response appeared in the sky. Zeng Wenyu didn't understand what the response meant, but the sheepdog who was also looking at the sky did. It stood up and shook its body: "Wang agreed to see you, come with me."

After barking a few times at the herd of cattle and sheep, the sheepdog led Zeng Wenyu to the center of the grassland. It did not walk fast, but Zeng Wenyu had to use all his strength to keep up. Only then did Zeng Wenyu realize that the sheepdog, which looked harmless, had a much higher level of cultivation than him.

Following the sheepdog, he didn't know how long he walked. Until Zeng Wenyu felt tired, he saw a huge mound of earth in front of him, with a closed door on it.

The sheepdog brought Zeng Wenyu to the door and then stepped aside. According to it, its king wanted to see Zeng Wenyu, not it, so it could not accompany Zeng Wenyu in, but just brought him here.

"Go in. Since the king has agreed to see you, he will not harm you. The king is merciful. Whether you are a human or a demon, the king treats everyone equally."

Zeng Wenyu no longer hesitated. He pushed open the door in front of him and walked in. The mound was not as dark as he had imagined. The passage inside was inlaid with cold light beads, illuminating every detail of the passage.

Entering the mound, looking at the several roads in front of him, when he was wondering which one to take, the roads suddenly changed, and finally only one was left in front of him. Zeng Wenyu knew that this was the king in the tomb who pointed out the correct path to him. He walked on this road all the way to the end and entered a very large space.

There is a small house in the space. Just as he walked here, Zeng Wenyu saw an old man walking out of the room. He had a pair of dragon horns on his head and was looking at him kindly.

Approaching the old man, Zeng Wenyu bowed to him and said, "Hello, senior."

The old man looked at Zeng Wenyu in front of him. He pointed to the stone bench in front of the room and asked Zeng Wenyu to sit down. Then he wiped his hand on the stone table, and a pot of hot tea and two tea bowls appeared on the table.
