Qin Yun met Ancestral Master Zhang along the way. Ancestral Master Zhang had come to receive him in order to save as much time as possible.

”Whoosh.”

A purple bolt of lightning blazed through the sky at a speed much faster than anything Qin Yun was capable of.

”Qin Yun, listen to what I have to say carefully. The World Entrance connects to another world. You can imagine how big a threat that poses. That mysterious fiendish demon has set up a massive array around the World Entrance, and in it are fifty thousand mortal humans. They are his hostages. The strength he produces has reached the outset of the third Firmament Essence Soul realm. In order to resolve this disaster, one solution is to send immortals that are at the peak third Firmament Essence Soul realm at the very least and risk the lives of the fifty thousand mortals to kill the fiendish demon before the tribulations befall us.” As Ancestral Master Zhang traveled with Qin Yun, he explained the situation in detail.

”An immortal at the third Firmament Essence Soul realm has to be sent to his death? And fifty thousand mortals have to die as well?” Qin Yun shook his head.

”The other solution is to send mortal cultivators. Thankfully, we currently have two reincarnated immortals,” said Ancestral Master Zhang.

”Two reincarnated immortals?” Qin Yun was alarmed.

As they rushed to their destination, Ancestral Master Zhang continued to explain.

…

Ancestral Master Zhangʼs speed was the fastest in the world. Even people like Human Emperor and Mahākāśyapa Bodhisattva were not his match. After Qin Yun met him, they arrived in the southernmost South Sea Prefectureʼs Mt Torturous within ten minutes.

There was a crowd of immortals and demons gathered on a cloud.

”Ancestral Master Zhang is back.”

”And with Sword Immortal Qin Yun.”

After a purple flash of lightning lit up across the horizon, Qin Yun and Ancestral Master Zhang arrived on the cloud.

Qin Yun instantly saw Human Emperor and immediately bowed. ”Greetings Your Majesty. Greetings everyone.”

A number of the present experts were stronger than Qin Yun but there was quite a number that were weaker than him.

”Sword Immortal Qin.”

”Qin Yun.”

Each of them responded. Many of them were scrutinizing him. They had thought nothing much of a mortal sword immortal, but since Ancestral Master Zhang had claimed that Qin Yunʼs strength was almost equal to the mysterious fiendish demonʼs, it meant that his strength was close to the third Firmament Essence Soul realm. He was naturally someone every faction in the world had to look up to.

The two reincarnated immortals, Hong Lingtong and Eighth Zhu, looked at Qin Yun with a smile.

”Brother Hong, I never expected you to be a reincarnated immortal. You sure hid it well,” said Qin Yun through a voice transmission. They had close ties after all. His nephew was already engaged to Hong Lingtongʼs daughter.

”It hasnʼt been long since my memories were awoken. I informed Human Emperor only when I discovered the appearance of a new catastrophe,” explained Hong Lingtong through a voice transmission.

”Qin Yun.” Human Emperor pointed to the billowing black fog in the distance and said, ”I believe you have been briefed on the situation with this World Entrance. That mysterious fiendish demonʼs world node is very unique. In less than half a day, the World Entrance has expanded to a size that a first Firmament Essence Soul realm fiendcelestial could enter through. I believe in about a dayʼs time, this World Entrance will expand to a size that allows for fiendcelestials at the third Firmament Essence Soul realm to enter.”

Qin Yun nodded. ”Ancestral Master Zhang has informed me.”

”Yes, as such, we will be relying on the three of you,” said Human Emperor seriously.

”With you aiding Ninth Hong and Eighth Zhu, thereʼs at least a seventy percent chance of success,” said Ancestral Master Zhang with a smile. ”I have already informed Human Emperor that if you three are able to resolve this disaster, we will definitely reward you handsomely.”

After all, Elder Qian would have to risk his life if the trio failed.

”Right, I have a huge gift that is specially prepared for you, Qin Yun,” said Human Emperor.

Qin Yun said immediately, ”This disaster threatens our world. It is my duty to resolve it. How can I request any reward from Your Majesty and Ancestral Master Zhang?”

When Ancestral Master Zhang heard that, he was further impressed by Qin Yun.

Unfortunately…
