"Could it be another boss?" Before Jin Tong could speak, the Pixiu beneath her suddenly said.

"What are you saying? Xiaobai, are you losing your mind?" Jin Tong frowned, displeased.

"No... no, what I meant was, another Gold Devouring Immortal?" The white jade Pixiu, realizing its mistake, said with a smile.

"Another Gold Devouring Immortal... what are they doing here? Can you sense its strength?" Han Li asked, pondering.

"Seems a little stronger than me..." Jin Tong said after a moment of silence.

Han Li's expression didn't change upon hearing this, but he was shocked inside.

Jin Tong's cultivation is now a bit stronger than his, already in the late stage of Golden Immortal. Stronger than her? Could it be a Gold Devouring Immortal at the Grand Luo realm?

"Master, then let's run..." Upon hearing their words, the Pixiu shuddered, its voice trembling.

Before it could finish speaking, a rumble like thunder rolled in from outside, shaking the heart and soul.

The once quiet valley immediately became noisy, and figures shot out from various residences, transforming into streaks of light and soaring into the sky.

Seeing this, Han Li frowned slightly.

"You guys stay in the cave for now, I'll go take a look." He said, turning and walking out of the cave.

At this moment, more and more members of the beast race flew out of Darkstar Valley, a dense mass heading outwards.

Just then, a streak of light flew in from afar and landed in front of the cave entrance, revealing the figure of Nuo Qinglin.

"Fellow Daoist Li, how have you been these days?" Nuo Qinglin said with a chuckle.

"Not bad, thank you for the hospitality, Clan Leader. May I ask what is happening in the valley?" Han Li asked calmly.

"The insect race has suddenly launched a large-scale attack, but we expected this and have made preparations in advance, so there's nothing to fear," Nuo Qinglin said confidently, waving his hand.

"That's good. I wonder why the Clan Leader has come here at this time?" Han Li asked again.

"To be honest, we will need to use the restrictions within Darkstar Valley to activate a secret technique later, and no one can stay in the valley. Therefore, I have come to ask Fellow Daoist Li to move outside the valley, please forgive us," Nuo Qinglin said.

"Of course, no problem, I'll pack up and come out," Han Li nodded and turned to walk into the cave.

Nuo Qinglin stood outside the cave, waiting quietly, without leaving.

Han Li walked into the cave, his brow furrowing, and walked into the secret chamber.

"The battle between the insect and beast races, and a Grand Luo Gold Devouring Immortal is coming. Master, this is not a place to stay for long, let's leave as soon as possible," the Pixiu exclaimed as soon as Han Li entered the secret chamber.

"Jin Tong, what do you think?" Han Li didn't speak, but asked Jin Tong.

"Uncle, you should know what happens when we Gold Devouring Immortals meet," Jin Tong said slowly, looking up at Han Li.

A hint of golden light flickered in her eyes, with a touch of solemnity and determination.

Han Li saw Jin Tong like this and didn't say anything.

"Boss, actually, I used to follow Gongshou Jiu in other immortal realms and had some contact with Gold Devouring Immortals. They are much more powerful than our desolate true spirits at the same level, let alone a Grand Luo Gold Devouring Immortal. Even if we join forces, we definitely can't fight it. It's better to run," the white jade Pixiu said hastily.

"We can't escape... Gold Devouring Immortals are extremely sensitive to each other. Even if we escape, that Gold Devouring Immortal will definitely continue to chase us," Jin Tong shook her head and said.

The white jade Pixiu opened its mouth, seemingly wanting to say something, but didn't.

"Just as Jin Tong said, even if we leave here, that Gold Devouring Immortal will definitely continue to hunt us down, and may even attract other existences. It's better to stay here and wait," Han Li said.

Seeing Han Li speak, the Pixiu's face turned bitter, and it could only nod.

Han Li waved his hand and released a green light, enveloping them, and said, "You guys hide in the spirit beast pouch first and don't show yourselves for now."

With a flash of green light, the figures of Jin Tong and the Pixiu disappeared without a trace.

Han Li then removed the restrictions in the secret chamber and walked out of the cave.

"Clan Leader, sorry to keep you waiting." He said to Nuo Qinglin.

"Fellow Daoist Li, you are too polite, please come with me." Nuo Qinglin smiled, and his whole body rose up into the sky with a streak of light.

Han Li transformed into a streak of green light and followed.

During the flight, he suddenly turned his head and looked towards the depths of the valley.

A cloud of black air rolled in the depths of the valley, like a fountain.

Although the black air was dense, his eyesight was extremely strong, and he could still see dozens of huge stone pillars standing in it, forming a magic circle. From time to time, obscure spatial fluctuations emanated from the black air, which looked somewhat similar to a teleportation array.

A trace of surprise flashed in Han Li's eyes, but he didn't ask any questions.

Nuo Qinglin didn't intend to explain to Han Li either, and flew straight up.

Inside Han Li's spirit beast pouch.

"Xiaobai, I remember you once said that your body has its own space, completely isolated from the outside world?" Jin Tong suddenly asked.

"That's right, Boss, you have a great memory!" The Pixiu said flatteringly.

"Okay, swallow me." Jin Tong said.

The white jade Pixiu was naturally taken aback, but then shook its head like a rattle:

"Boss, do you want to use my internal space to conceal your aura? No, living things can't survive in my internal space at all. Anything that enters it will be digested quickly..."

"Hmph, with your little ability, you still want to digest me! Stop talking nonsense, hurry up, it's definitely no problem to stay in your body for a short time!" Jin Tong urged impatiently.

The Pixiu shrank its head, and seeing Jin Tong say this, it had no choice but to obey.

It opened its mouth and sucked, and a swallowing force enveloped Jin Tong.

Suddenly, Jin Tong transformed into a golden light, disappeared into its mouth.

……

Han Li followed Nuo Qinglin and quickly flew out of Darkstar Valley and arrived outside the valley.

The various tribes of the beast race had already prepared for this great battle, so they reacted extremely quickly. At this moment, they had all come out, a dense mass that almost filled the sky outside the valley, numbering tens of thousands.

Han Li glanced around, and there were about thirty or forty groups here. The Xiang Jing tribe and others he had seen before were also here, but they were standing on the edge.

There were also nearly a thousand black chariots, hundreds of feet in size, floating in the air, also filled with members of the beast race.

These black chariots gave off a metallic luster, and black纹路 were engraved on them, emitting bursts of black light, looking indestructible.

In front of the warriors of each tribe, there were even more demon beast armies of various types, at least a million.

The beast race people used some means to arrange these demon beast armies into several neat square formations, without any sense of chaos.

Seeing the scene before him, Han Li couldn't help but reveal a bit of surprise.

"Fellow Daoist Li, you are an outsider and have seen a lot. Is our beast race army pleasing to the eye?" Nuo Qinglin said with some pride.

"Indeed extraordinary." Han Li praised.

Nuo Qinglin laughed and took Han Li towards the sky.

In front of those chariots floated a black platform, a hundred feet in size, shimmering with spiritual light, obviously a rare treasure.

At this moment, thirty-four members of the beast race were standing here, their bearing and clothing indicating that they were the leaders of various tribes.

Nuo Qinglin took Han Li and landed directly on the platform.

"A human race wilderness hunter! Clan Leader Nuo Qinglin, why did you bring this person here!" A thick voice rang out, full of anger.

Han Li's expression didn't change, and he looked up.

The speaker was a burly man with dark skin, who looked like a big black bear at first glance.

This big man's cultivation was quite profound, already reaching the peak of the early stage of Golden Immortal, seemingly even more powerful than Nuo Qinglin.

The other members of the beast race also glared at Han Li with hostility.

The strength of these people was not weak either. There were more than ten Golden Immortals, but they were all in the early stage of Golden Immortal, standing near the center. The others standing around were mostly in the late stage of True Immortal.

"Clan Leader Wulu, and everyone, please calm down. This is Fellow Daoist Li Feiyu. Although he is a human race, he is not a wilderness hunter. He just wants to cross the desolate wilderness, and he also helped our beast race and the Xiang Jing tribe before, he is not an enemy," Nuo Qinglin hurriedly stepped forward and said.

"My daughter went to various places to contact the tribes, and was attacked by the insect race on the way. Thanks to Senior Li's rescue, she returned to Darkstar Valley safely." Nuo Yifan was also here at this moment, and said loudly.

"That's right, Fellow Daoist Li is a friend of our Xiang Jing tribe forever." Although Tan Shi was standing on the edge, his voice was exceptionally loud.

The people present heard this, their expressions eased slightly, but their gazes towards Han Li still carried doubt and distrust.

"Fellow Daoist Li, please don't blame them, our desolate wilderness tribes have a deep-seated hatred for wilderness hunters, they are not targeting you," Nuo Qinglin said with an apologetic smile towards Han Li.

"Li would not dare, the war is imminent, Clan Leader Nuo need not entertain me. Although Li doesn't have much strength, it is enough to protect myself," Han Li said with a faint smile.

"Fellow Daoist Li's strength is profound, how would Nuo not know, if my race is defeated in the upcoming war, please help us again," Nuo Qinglin laughed and cupped his hands.

Hearing Nuo Qinglin's words, the expressions of the other clan leaders changed.

"Nuo Qinglin, we are the noble beast race, how can you seek help from a lowly and cunning human race cultivator!" The dark man said in anger.

"Brother Wulu, our beast race's mortal enemy is the insect race. In order to resist the insect race and protect our compatriots, we should unite all forces that can be united, and fight against the enemy with common hatred. Moreover, I have already asked the 'King' about this matter, and he also agrees with my opinion," Nuo Qinglin cupped his hands towards a certain side of the void, and said seriously.

Hearing the word 'King', the dark man's expression changed, and his aura immediately weakened.

The expressions of the other clan leaders also turned serious, and they fell silent.
