“Am I eligible to adopt a new nickname like ‘Chen Paopao’ now?”
Chen Dengming muttered to himself sarcastically.
Looking up at the oppressive black fog floating overhead, he suddenly realized that this previously creepy Senluo domain now seemed somewhat familiar.
At least, it guaranteed his safety for the time being.
Only then did he feel the excruciating pain all over his body, as though he was falling apart.
Especially his back, it felt like it was on the verge of breaking apart, accompanied by a burning sensation on his skin.
He felt like meat roasting in a sealed container.
...
“Hiss——”
Chen Dengming gritted his teeth and barely managed to channel a trace of Dan power, quickly withdrawing the Ruyi Treasure Armor that had been covering his body.
The moment he removed the armor, he could smell the aroma of roasting meat.
Pain like being pricked all over his body erupted, making him feel hot and even produce smoke.
Bowing his head, Chen Dengming saw that after exiting his Human Immortal Dao body, his reddish skin looked just like a boiled shrimp, covered with water-filled blisters.
His skin bulged with large, almost transparent, blisters.
As for his back, he could faintly smell something scorched, and some parts of his body had lost sensation, probably because his superficial pain nerves had been damaged.
“It’s been a long time since I was injured this badly…
especially in my thick-skinned Human Immortal Dao body.”
Chen Dengming felt a cold sweat trickling down his forehead.
“As expected of a Mid-Nascent Soul stage Dragon Beast, if I had to take four or five more of these hits, I might just die, right?
It’s going to take some effort to recover now…”
He took a deep breath, struggling to sit up, feeling a burning pain in his buttocks.
Swiftly consuming a Replenishing Heart Pill, Pill of Strengthening Spirit, as well as a Pill of Body Enhancement, he then performed ‘The Rejuvenation Skill’ to absorb the vitality of nearby trees in order to heal his wounds.
Although the trees grew poorly in this Land of Fallen, and most of them were shady, they still contained a fair amount of tree vitality.
…
An hour later.
Thanks to the abundance of vitality, as well as the effects of the Dan power and medicinal pills, Chen Dengming quickly healed his searing pain and stinging wounds.
The surroundings, which were once lush groves, now looked decayed and exuded an aura of wilting and decline.
“Phew——”
Chen Dengming breathed out, feeling refreshed.
He felt so much more comfortable compared to before, except for a lingering itch on his skin.
He stood up, took off the Armor Wood Robe to have a look, and found that a layer of brown dead skin had come off him.
The dead skin was leftover from the burns he had suffered.
With a gentle pull, a large patch of skin came off without causing any sensation.
What was revealed beneath was new skin that was slightly tender, red, and white.
Seeing this, the itching sensation on the skin vanished.
“This new layer of skin feels even softer than Sister’s, it’s incredibly smooth…”
He stood up, yet his back still felt a bit swollen, as though his muscles and bones had not yet fully recovered.
Briefly deploying his Divine Senses and looking at his back, there were no visible signs of injury on the outside.
Inside, however, there were still minor injuries.
Chen Dengming did not use The Rejuvenation Skill again.

A little rest for some time would naturally heal these minor injuries.
In this Land of Fallen, it was not wise to call attention to himself.
It was crucial to somewhat respect the Senluo.
Chen Dengming put on his robe, then took out the Nascent Soul-level talisman and charms that he had exchanged, like “Mounting the Mountain’s Summit,” and “Myriads of things,” and placed them in his hand.
He also took out the Soul Fetching Bow and Rod and sensing the last Soul Arrow stored inside it, he couldn’t help but shake his head.
The only means he currently had to confront threats comparable to the Nascent Soul True Monarch were these.
Any of these means, when used against a Late-stage Golden Core or Complete cultivator, would pose a significant threat.
But against a Nascent Soul cultivator, their effectiveness would depend on the timing and luck.
Using his Heavenly Vision, he observed that the Dragon Beast had left the seashore outside the Land of Fallen.
There were only residual traces of its terrifying might and the huge rifts on the beach, marking the fierce battle that had taken place.
What was previously a village inhabited by many cultivators from Dragon Spirit Island was now deserted.
Just as he was about to leave, he perceived something and turned his head towards the Eastern Region.
He could barely make out seven or eight points of light, the size of thumbs, piercing through the black fog, flickering on and off.
Then they quickly retreated, turning into small black dots under Chen Dengming’s focused gaze.
The display of light flaring up and then engulfed by darkness, were obvious signs of a duel between experts at the Divine Transformation stage.
Chen Dengming’s face instantly turned grave, reminding him of the severe situation mentioned by Third Uncle Master Su Yanyan.
The reason why his Sect had prepared for evacuation earlier was precisely due to their foresight.
They foresaw that the Eastern and Northern Regions were going to lose the forthcoming war.
Even the top Sects would struggle to protect themselves, hence they had to plan ahead.
“Has a war between those at Divine Transformation stage already broken out?”
His brows furrowed, his heart suddenly feeling heavy as lead.
This sudden turn of events had happened too quickly.
He didn’t know how his Sect was doing right now.
Although Su Yanyan had told him not to worry because the Ancestor had prepared an escape route for the Sect,
Now that the war had actually begun, Chen Dengming couldn’t help but worry.
However, with his current strength, there’s nothing he could do even if he was worried.
He still had to seize this opportunity while the Dragon Beast had not returned to block his path, and he had to leave as quickly as possible.
“I hope the Ancestors have a backup plan so they can break free and come to find us.”
Chen Dengming no longer hesitated.
Gestures activating the Bead of All Gold, projecting the Gold Escape Skill, a flash of golden light flashed, and he shot out of the Land of Fallen.
Avoiding the radius of the fishing village, and keeping a low profile, he adjusted his direction towards his two Incarnations, who were leading the evacuation of the large troop of thousands of Disciples of Longevity.
