All races revere me as the Heavenly Emperor, solely because of my nine disciples!

"How dare you! Who do you think you are, to speak to me like that?"

Ye Haoran also had a temper. He raised his hand and pressed down, and countless Dao principles rushed towards the middle-aged man!

"boom!"

The void shattered, and the middle-aged man was struck as if by lightning. He didn't even have time to circulate his Daoist True Essence before he crashed heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood!

"you……"

His expression changed drastically, and he stared intently at Ye Haoran, wanting to get up but unable to do so!

Both were cultivators at the Purple Mansion Realm, but he was only at the first level of the Purple Mansion Realm, a world apart from Ye Haoran's cultivation!

"Who else wants me to kowtow to them?"

Ye Haoran's gaze was cold. He didn't cause trouble, but that didn't mean he was afraid of trouble.

If it's a sage, fine, but below a sage, who would dare to point fingers at him?

"you……"

The crowd behind the young man was furious and was about to step forward to argue with Ye Haoran, but the young man raised his hand to stop them!

"I'm sorry, senior!"

"It was our rudeness that started this, and we hope that you will forgive us, senior!"

The young man landed and bowed to Ye Haoran.

"Hmph, there better not be a next time!"

Ye Haoran snorted coldly, raised his hand and waved it, and the middle-aged expert in the Purple Mansion Realm spat out another mouthful of blood, flying backward.

"Let's go!"

With a wave of his sleeve, Ye Haoran turned and left with Qin Xiyao and the others.

"Senior, wait!"

The young man quickly called out.

"What's the matter?"

Ye Haoran said coldly.

"Senior, please forgive my rudeness, but I have a favor to ask of you!"

"If I am not mistaken, you must be from the Northern Wilderness!"

"Given the current strength of the Northern Wilderness, there should be no one who can fully utilize the value of the Primordial Demon Ape bloodline!"

"If you have any news about the Primordial Demon Ape, please let me know. My Purple Swallow Imperial Court will reward you handsomely and will never let you down!"

The young man cupped his hands and smiled.

"Demon Ape?"

Ye Haoran was taken aback, then suddenly realized something and glanced at the little monkey with a seemingly casual look.

But the other party remained calm and composed, as if what they were saying had nothing to do with him.

"Did I guess wrong?"

Ye Haoran thought to himself.

Having previously learned that the little monkey had transformed into a real person, even he himself couldn't see through it. He only dared to guess that the other party was a demon saint, and dared not think of anything else.

At this moment, he couldn't help but wonder if the other party was that demonic ape.

But the other party's calmness made him feel uneasy.

Is it that the other party simply doesn't care about these people looking for him, or is he not a demon ape at all?

"talk later!"

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and Ye Haoran led Qin Xiyao and the others straight away from this place.

"Little Lord!"

As they walked away, the group behind the young man looked resentful.

"Alright, what's with this reckless behavior?"

"This is a peak Purple Mansion level expert, whose strength is unfathomable. Do you really want to fight him head-on?"

"Even if my Purple Swallow Imperial Court is not afraid of this person, if he acts recklessly, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

"Be more restrained in the future, don't be so arrogant and domineering!"

The young man glanced at the crowd, then turned and left.

Seeing this, Ye Haoran, who had already walked a distance away, withdrew his divine sense and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Elder Ye, these people are going too far!"

"Yes, look at their arrogant manner, as if they're bestowing a reward upon someone. This isn't asking for a favor; it's clearly issuing orders!"

On the side, Chu Chen and the other disciples couldn't help but complain.

"That's enough. From now on, if you encounter anyone from the Purple Swallow Imperial Court, just keep your distance and take a look from afar!"

"This young man is only around thirty years old, yet he possesses the cultivation of the peak of the Enlightenment Realm. Among the younger generation in the Northern Wilderness, no one can rival him. But in the Purple Swallow Imperial Court, he might not even make it into the top ten!"

"The world is vast, and there are countless geniuses; you must not underestimate them!"

Ye Haoran waved his hand.

Upon hearing this, the disciples gasped, feeling immense pressure.

They then discovered that they were overshadowed not only by the geniuses of the three major academies' branch campuses, but also by the prodigies of the various holy lands of the Northern Wilderness.

Even more powerful than these people are the prodigies from various realms.

Compared to these people, they are utterly insignificant!

"Alright, no need to be discouraged. Focus on your cultivation, and the future is bright!"

"There is a secret realm eight thousand miles ahead, which no one but me knows about to this day!"

"Judging by the time, it should be time to start. I'll take you to see it; hopefully, we'll find it worthwhile!"

Sensing that something was wrong with everyone, Ye Haoran swept them up and flew away in a streak of light.

"Wait for me!"

The little monkey followed behind the crowd, and with a cry, the world spun around.

He clearly did not use any true energy, but wherever he went, the ground seemed to shrink, and he covered dozens of miles with each step.

Ye Haoran glanced back and couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

This incredible ability to shrink the distance between people made him completely certain that the other party was indeed the Demon Saint.

After all, cultivators at the Purple Mansion Realm can destroy the heavens and the earth, but destruction is easy, while changing the world is very difficult.

Only a saint-level being can make their words law and change the rules of heaven and earth at will.

Soon, the group arrived at a dense forest. As soon as they approached a rock about half a person's height, they felt a sudden dizziness.

When I came to my senses, the scene before me was completely different.

This is another dense forest, filled with the rich fragrance of fruit and the enchanting aroma of flowers!

Looking around, the various fruits are extremely tempting, and there is a wide variety of flowers.

In the distance stands a towering peak, thousands of feet high, with a waterfall cascading down from it, its tremendous roar audible even ten miles away.

"Squeak squeak squeak... squeak squeak squeak..."

Suddenly, a squeaking sound came from the side of everyone. Turning around, they saw the little monkey with its eyes shining, as if it were going home, hopping and skipping into the forest.

He casually picked a fruit tree from the roadside, then turned around and jumped onto a towering tree.

He then leaped up, grabbed a vine, and swung dozens of meters away before firmly grasping a branch of another large tree.

He had only taken two bites of the fruit in his hand when he casually tossed it aside and went to pick another one!

Everyone looked on with disbelief!

They could all see that these fruits were spiritual fruits, rarely seen in the outside world.

This monkey is so wasteful; it's a complete waste of resources.

Without realizing it, Chu Chen and the other disciples hurriedly ran into the forest.

However, as soon as they got close to the dense forest, they couldn't help but scream and fell to the ground with a thud!

"What's going on? What happened?"

Everyone lay sprawled on the ground, as if they were carrying a huge mountain, which pressed down on them and made them unable to move!

Before long, everyone was drenched in sweat.

My face turned bright red, and I could barely breathe!

"Hahaha……"

"I told you this is a secret realm, but you really think it's a treasure trove? You want everything you see that looks good!"

"Come on, unleash your comprehension and truly comprehend the Daoist principles within this realm!"

"Back then, it took me half a month to walk thirty steps, and my cultivation level broke through from the third level of the Divine Power Realm to the Enlightenment Realm!"

"How much you gain now depends on your abilities!"

Ye Haoran laughed heartily, looking at his disciples with schadenfreude.

He did not set foot in the dense forest, clearly not wanting to experience the fear of being dominated by the field again.

After all, here, cultivation level doesn't matter; all living beings are suppressed. As an elder, he absolutely cannot lie among a group of disciples—it would be too shameful!

The disciples turned around with a look of despair. They were now caught in a dilemma and could only lie on the ground and meditate as Ye Haoran had instructed, trying to sense the field between heaven and earth!
