The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

The Outer Realm Island shook with thunderous tremors.

The booming echoes from the battle between two Divine Beasts reverberated across the sky, even reaching beyond the island.

However, the Outer Realm Island was situated deep within space, far away from the earth.

Even the loudest commotion here could never travel down to the surface.

After resting briefly in the territory of the Taotie, Li Muyang didn’t dare delay and immediately took off on his escape route.

True to form, the Zhu Diao followed swiftly behind.

However, upon entering the Taotie’s domain, the Zhu Diao once again faced the wrath of the Taotie.

The Taotie, clearly far more vicious and ruthless than the venomous Ice Python, retaliated ferociously.

Not only did it try to drive out the Zhu Diao, but the greed and savagery of the Taotie also led it to incessantly try to rip pieces of the Zhu Diao’s flesh during the attack, attempting to grab a quick bite of its blood and meat.

Amidst such chaotic evasion, Li Muyang crossed through the territories of five Divine Beasts in one breath. Behind him, the relentless Zhu Diao finally gave up its pursuit and turned to leave.

When the Zhu Diao turned back, Li Muyang, who had been sprinting like mad, nearly collapsed on the spot.

Ever since stepping onto the path of cultivation, rarely had he ever been this exhausted, feeling as though every ounce of power within his body had been drained.

“Damn it, this temple run game is hellishly hard to play…”

Li Muyang hid under a massive lotus leaf, lying on his back as he gasped for breath in fatigue.

Though he inhabited a clay body, he still experienced exhaustion.

The deeper the game progressed, the more realistic it felt.

The sensation of dying was so authentic it felt as if he had truly perished once already, and now the fatigue surging within his body made him so worn out that his vision darkened—he just wanted to lie still.

“… This time, I need a few hours of rest before heading out to hunt again.”

Li Muyang muttered to himself.

He was now at the edge of the territory belonging to the Divine Beast Feiyi.

He had been to this place several times, and it had become relatively familiar to him.

Meanwhile, back in the direction where he had fled, the Zhu Diao engaged in another round of intense battle upon returning.

The sounds of the Divine Beasts’ clashes reverberated across the skies, earth-shaking explosions occasionally raining onto the island, causing the whole Outer Realm Island to quake.

The cacophony made Li Muyang shake his head repeatedly.

“Was there really a need for all this…”

After being chased this far…

Li Muyang lay under the lotus leaf to rest, leisurely waiting for his strength to recover.

It wasn’t until the sun disappeared and the stars filled the sky that Li Muyang finally crawled out from under the leaf and began moving forward.

He was ready to start hunting in the expansive Lotus Pond.

The vast lotus pond spread endlessly, with lotus leaves stretching to the horizon in magnificent abundance.

A faint mist hung in the air, complementing the blooming lotuses between the leaves—serene and breathtaking, their charm akin to that of an Immortal Realm.

But amidst this Immortal Realm, a clay dragon now moved stealthily.

Li Muyang swam quietly through the pond and quickly located his prey.

A giant frog with bloody pupils on its back.

After observing the frog’s power and speed briefly, confirming it was weak, Li Muyang charged forward directly and bit down onto the frog’s head.

In an instant, the frog died on the spot, perishing in silence.

—Not every prey required an ambush like the eel he had hunted before.

At level 69, Li Muyang had achieved some measure of strength.

Most of the exotic creatures on the island could be overpowered by him with sheer force.

After devouring the frog’s blood, essence, and flame energy, Li Muyang swam away, searching for the next prey.

In Feiyi’s territory, the hunting limit was five.

But at that precise moment, an unexpected event occurred.

As Li Muyang moved away from the frog’s corpse, an earth-shattering disturbance suddenly erupted from the edge of the Outer Realm Island, spreading rapidly across the entire island.

In the Lotus Pond, instinctively turning his head, Li Muyang was met with shockwaves of tremors rippling towards him.

Amid roaring explosions, the pond water exploded outward.

Countless lotus leaves burst into the air, while icy sprays battered everything in their path.

Li Muyang stared dumbfounded before instinctively rising into the sky, gazing into the distance.

At the eastern edge of the Outer Realm Island, radiant flashes of light went berserk.

Something terrifying was repeatedly blasting the edge of the Outer Realm Island.

The immense force of the attack shook the island to its core, revealing the protective array covering it in blinding flashes.

Countless ancient talismans materialized in the sky as enormous light webs spread out from the peak of the central stone mountain to the island’s edges.

The entire Outer Realm Island now resembled a massive transparent light bowl being covered.

But that monstrous force at the eastern edge was relentlessly bombarding this light bowl, trying to shatter the island’s array.

Seeing the scene unfold, Li Muyang’s eyes nearly popped out in shock.

“Holy shit! Who’s the lunatic trying to break the island’s array?”

His mind raced furiously—there were few True Immortal-level forces alive in the heavens and earth now.

It could only be the Otherworldly Demon Gods, the Ancient Resentment Well Evil God, or Miao Fengjun…

The Otherworldly Demon Gods of the Deep Space Temple were the closest, making them the prime suspects.

But why would those Demon Gods choose now to act, after all this time? They could’ve done it earlier or waited longer…

Li Muyang’s expression darkened as he muttered, “These Demon Gods are the sore losers here!”

Earlier, one of those Divine Sovereigns had even taunted Li Muyang, inviting him to the Outer Realm Island to seize the statue of the Little Wild Grass.

But now, sensing activity on the island and perceiving that an Ascendant might truly have arrived, they decided to destroy the island’s barrier?

The massive force outside had an incredibly simple goal.

As long as it broke the protective barrier around the Outer Realm Island, the Divine Beasts imprisoned here would rush out, flooding into the Mortal World.

These Divine Beasts had long been enslaved and trapped here by the Otherworldly Demon Gods. If given the chance to leave, they undoubtedly would.

Once those raging beasts broke free, the path to the island’s central Divine Altar would be unobstructed.

From there, the statue of the Little Wild Grass on the altar could be taken.

“Damn it, they can’t handle losing!”

Li Muyang gritted his teeth.

The commotion from the Zhu Diao’s chase had been too great, alerting the nearby Deep Space Temple.

Those Otherworldly Demon Gods had lived as neighbors to the Outer Realm Island for tens of thousands of years—they knew that these Divine Beasts wouldn’t act out of line unless disturbed.

Hearing the upheaval now indicated that an Ascendant had indeed arrived.

And so, they came to disrupt everything.

Li Muyang sped across the island, rushing toward the stone mountain at its center.

Swearing under his breath, he cursed those Demon Gods for ruining everything.

They had left him no time to level up further.

If the barrier protecting the Outer Realm Island shattered and the Divine Beasts rushed out, he would have to race to the Divine Altar as fast as possible.

But how could his speed match that of a true Immortal-level being?

Li Muyang gritted his teeth, pushing himself to race toward the central stone mountain of the island.

In this moment, he fervently prayed, hoping the island’s array could hold out a little longer—just enough for him to reach the summit.

The only silver lining was that, due to the massive commotion in the east, all of the Divine Beasts on the island took to the skies, rushing toward that direction.

Even those creatures hidden in the blood mist had departed.

With no obstacles in his path, Li Muyang pressed on.

The only remaining challenge was time.

The LV69 Half-Evil Dragon—damn it, it flew too damn slow!

He had to reach the Divine Altar before the barrier shattered!
