World's Strongest Martial Warrior

Acknowledging the disciple with a slight nod, Peter extended his immortal senses throughout the palace grounds, only to discover that Lu Xiaoqing was absent.    

That wasn't all.    

The ancient Immortal Venerables, including the Chasing Sun Immortal Venerable, were also missing.    

"Where's your palace master?" Peter inquired, his brow furrowing in concern.    

He had spent two years in deep cultivation within the second level of the Tower of Time, though mere days had passed in the external world. Could it be that significant events had unfolded in the Immortal Domain during this brief period?    

"Demons have abruptly emerged in the Longevity Immortal Domain," the disciple explained with urgency. "The Palace Master has taken the lead in quelling the disturbance."    

"Hmm?" Peter's eyes narrowed at this revelation. "Why would demons suddenly invade the Longevity Immortal Domain?"    

"I'm not sure," the disciple admitted, shaking his head. "However, there's speculation that the devil's appearance is linked to the profound transformations occurring within the Longevity Immortal Domain. Young Master Peter Parker, have you noticed the ease of cultivation here has increased?"    

Caught off guard, Peter focused his senses and, indeed, discovered that the Immortal Yuan energy was now significantly richer than before. The fabric of the universe itself appeared more whole, and even the Laws of the Immortal Dao were more accessible.    

"The Immortal Domain has truly undergone a transformation," Peter remarked, his expression growing serious.    

Having advanced to the Mixed Energy Realm, Peter's comprehension of the cosmos had deepened. He sensed that the Immortal Dao, which once seemed fragmented, now felt entirely whole.    

"The cosmos is shifting, and a tribulation approaches. Youngster, the tribulation of this era is likely imminent, and time is of the essence," intoned the solemn voice of the Immortal Monument Spirit within Peter's mind.    

Peter Parker was taken aback. He felt compelled to ask, "Senior, do you understand what's causing the changes in heaven and earth?"    

"In the ancient times, during a great catastrophe, numerous Immortal Emperors, led by the Green Emperor, engaged in a fierce battle with devils under the command of the Ancient Devil Palace."    

"However, the devils from the Ancient Devil Palace were formidable. The Immortal World struggled to fend them off."    

"Ultimately, many Immortal Emperors harnessed their divine powers and borrowed a strand of Immortal Dao Origin from the Immortal World. That's how they managed to confine the devils within a dimensional space. The Green Emperor and his peers paid the ultimate price, sealing away the Devil Emperor-level entities from the Ancient Devil Palace." ......    

"The scarcity of the Immortal World's Immortal Dao Origin is precisely why it's challenging for this era to rebound, making the emergence of Immortal Emperor Realm experts even rarer."    

The Immortal Monument Spirit was forthright, sharing with Peter Parker the intricate details of the ancient catastrophe.    

With a grave tone, Peter Parker said, "Senior, are you suggesting that the heaven and earth of the Immortal World have undergone a transformation? Could it be due to the return of the Immortal Dao Origin, indicating that the ancient seal on the devil race has been compromised?"    

"Exactly. And if my suspicions are correct, the Longevity Immortal Domain isn't the only place affected. Devils may have emerged in other regions of the Immortal World as well."    

The Immortal Tablet Spirit spoke gravely, "Logically, the seal should have held for much longer. If I'm not mistaken, the premature unraveling of the seal is likely tied to the Heavenly Demon Mountain in the Devil Suppressing Immortal Domain."    

Upon hearing this, Peter Parker's expression grew tense.    

He recalled the Immortal Monument Spirit's caution when he first arrived at the Heavenly Devil Mountain, suggesting they had a hidden agenda in conducting their blood sacrifices for the war.    

Could the true intent of the blood sacrifice ceremony have been to weaken the seal on the devil prematurely?    

It appeared that once he dealt with the demons in the Longevity Immortal Domain, his next move would be to investigate the Heavenly Demon Mountain within the Devil Suppressing Immortal Domain.    

As this realization dawned on him, Peter Parker lifted his gaze to the disciples of the Longevity Immortal Palace. "Where is your palace master now?" he inquired.    

The disciple responded quickly, "It's in the eastern part of the Longevity Immortal Domain, in the ravine."    

Without a second thought, Peter Parker transformed into a beam of light and made his way toward the eastern region of the Longevity Immortal Domain. Having advanced his cultivation base to the Mixed Energy Realm, he could traverse the entire domain in under an hour.    

In no time at all, Peter Parker reached the eastern sector of the Immortal Domain. Despite not knowing the precise location of the ravine, his potent immortal sense allowed him to pinpoint Lu Xiaoqing and her companions.    

In an instant, Peter Parker traversed the spatial expanse and materialized beside Lu Xiaoqing and the group. Their auras were in poor shape, and the air was thick with the remnants of bloodshed and violence, signaling a recent and fierce battle.    

Upon seeing Peter Parker's sudden arrival, Lu Xiaoqing's eyes widened in surprise. "Big Brother Peter Parker, have you emerged from your seclusion?"    

He nodded, surveying the ravine. "Xiaoqing, what's the current situation?"    

"It's not looking good," she replied gravely. "The demons here may not be particularly strong, but they're relentless. They keep coming, wave after wave. I fear they'll wear us down eventually."    

"I've reached out to the Purple Flame Emperor Palace for assistance, hoping they can dispatch help in time," she continued, her tone serious.    

Peter Parker shook his head. "The world is changing; a disaster looms. Demonic creatures have infested not just the Longevity Immortal Domain but others as well. I doubt the Purple Flame Emperor Palace can spare any attention for our plight right now."    

Lu Xiaoqing's expression grew concerned. "Big Brother Peter Parker, are you saying that devils have emerged in other Immortal Domains too?"    

He nodded solemnly. "I'll fill you in on the details later. For now, let's focus on clearing out the devils from this ravine."    

"Alright," she agreed, understanding the urgency.    

They proceeded with caution, aware of their ignorance regarding the full scope of the ravine's dangers.    

They could no longer afford to delay their confrontation with the demons lurking in the ravine. With Peter Parker among them, it was time to take the offensive and plunge into the heart of the ravine.    

Peter Parker's presence bolstered their confidence; even a confrontation with a devil king seemed surmountable, knowing they could make a safe retreat if necessary.    

"Those of you who have ascended beyond the Great Luo Realm, follow me into the ravine!" Peter Parker called out in a hushed yet commanding tone. Without hesitation, he spearheaded the charge into the shadowy chasm.    

Crossing the threshold of the ravine felt like stepping into an entirely different realm. They found themselves in a twilight world where devilish energy, or devil Qi, seeped continuously from a spatial fissure, coalescing into an oppressive miasma.    

Not far from where Peter Parker and his allies stood, a confluence of myriad devil Qi swirled menacingly. It was clear that if they did not strike decisively, these malevolent forces would soon mount another assault on the Longevity Immortal Domain.
