When Gu Qingfeng regained his senses, he was astonished to find himself in the midst of a lush, verdant mountain forest.
The scenery was breathtaking—crystal-clear streams, towering ancient trees, exotic flowers in full bloom, and the harmonious chorus of birdsong filling the air.
Clearly, the spatial turbulence had transported him here.
"Cough, cough..."
Gu Qingfeng suddenly erupted into violent coughing.
Pfft!
A dazzling golden blood spurted from his mouth.
As the golden droplets landed on the nearby grass and flowers, something miraculous happened.
The plants instantly began to grow at an alarming rate—one meter, two meters, three meters!
In mere moments, the once-small vegetation had grown to rival the height of the ancient trees nearby.
"Damn it! That hurts like hell! Cursed spatial turbulence! If not for my innate Sacred Body and the protection of my Prison-Suppressing Dragon-Elephant Physique, I would’ve been torn to shreds."
Gu Qingfeng shuddered at the thought. The spatial turbulence had been terrifyingly powerful, nearly tearing his body apart—or rather, it had torn him apart, but his physique was so robust that he regenerated instantly.
He wiped the blood from his lips and glanced at the overgrown plants, sighing at the waste.
"Who knew my blood had become this potent? This must be the legendary Sacred Blood. What a waste."
By the time he finished grumbling, his life-threatening injuries had completely healed.
"This must be the Cangming Realm," Gu Qingfeng murmured, surveying his surroundings.
His deduction wasn’t baseless.
With his innate Sacred Body and his connection to the Heavenly Dao, he could perceive the nature of all things with exceptional clarity. Though the spatial turbulence had been chaotic, he had gleaned some insights from it.
When space shattered, it created a void—like throwing a bomb into a lake.
Boom!
The explosion would send water flying, leaving a temporary crater in the lake’s surface. But would the crater remain forever?
Of course not. Once the bomb’s force dissipated, the water would rush back to fill the gap.
The same principle applied to spatial ruptures. When a void appeared, it wouldn’t linger. The surrounding space would flow back like water to fill the emptiness.
Since the spatial rift he had been in belonged to the Cangming Realm, the space that filled the void naturally came from the Cangming Realm as well.
Thus, Gu Qingfeng concluded he was now in the Cangming Realm.
"But where exactly in the Cangming Realm am I? And is it safe?"
Gu Qingfeng couldn’t help but feel a twinge of unease. Unlike the Qing Realm, the Cangming Realm was teeming with formidable experts. If he ran into some supreme powerhouse, things could get messy.
Alone in an unfamiliar wilderness, he had to tread carefully.
In an unknown land, the safest course of action was to find a demonic lair to take shelter in.
After all, nothing was more reassuring to him than encountering demons when traveling alone.
Reaching a demonic nest would mean he was home.
As for returning to the Qing Realm, Gu Qingfeng decided to secure a safe haven first.
He didn’t want to emerge from his palm-sized world only to bump into some supreme expert.
The odds were low, but caution never hurt.
Just as he was about to explore his surroundings—
Boom!
The ground began to tremble violently, as if a colossal beast were stirring beneath the earth.
Gu Qingfeng’s gaze snapped toward the north, the source of the disturbance.
Extending his divine sense, his expression instantly darkened.
Creatures were charging toward him—not just one, but an entire group!
Their speed was staggering, and the sheer magnitude of their movements suggested they were massive and powerful.
Could they be demons?
Gu Qingfeng’s anticipation grew, and he remained still, waiting.
Moments later, the arrivals revealed themselves.
Gu Qingfeng was taken aback.
They weren’t demons—they were people.
Well, calling them "people" might not be entirely accurate. More precisely, they were giants!
A group of towering figures, each over five meters tall, clad in beast-hide garments, their muscles bulging like boulders.
Their wild, unkempt hair flowed freely as they brandished stone axes and spiked clubs, their eyes gleaming with predatory hunger as they slowly encircled Gu Qingfeng, treating him like prey.
Staring at the dozen or so giants, Gu Qingfeng was momentarily stunned.
Were these giants considered demons?
Or was this what humans looked like in the Cangming Realm?
He probed their strength but found no trace of energy fluctuations—as if they had never cultivated.
Yet, despite the absence of cultivation, their sheer presence was overwhelming, exuding an aura of primal terror.
Suddenly, the ground shook even more violently!
Something far larger was approaching.
Gu Qingfeng turned his head just in time to see distant trees collapsing in waves, as if flattened by some monstrous force.
Then, the behemoth emerged.
Another giant—but this one stood a staggering ten meters tall, like a moving skyscraper.
Unlike the others, this titan was covered in intricate, arcane patterns that writhed like serpents across his skin with every flex of his muscles.
The five-meter giants had similar markings, but sparse in comparison—nowhere near as dense as the ten-meter giant’s full-body inscriptions.
As an innate Sacred Being, Gu Qingfeng instantly recognized these patterns.
They were Dao Marks—mystical sigils capable of channeling the power of heaven and earth, granting extraordinary abilities.
This giant was strong.
How strong? Gu Qingfeng couldn’t tell, since they lacked detectable energy fluctuations. But judging by their aura alone, they were likely stronger than him.
The ten-meter giant glared at Gu Qingfeng, nostrils flaring as if savoring the scent of a delectable feast.
He inhaled deeply, greed flooding his eyes.
Then, the giant spoke—slowly, as if struggling with human speech, but his voice boomed like thunder.
"Such a delicious scent. Today, I feast! Seize him!"
At his command, the five-meter giants let out savage howls and lunged forward.
"Wait!" Gu Qingfeng suddenly shouted.
The giants hesitated.
Gu Qingfeng continued, "Tell me, honored elder—are you demons?"
The ten-meter giant blinked, his dull mind taking a moment to process the question before replying, "I am no demon."
"Don’t lie. If you’re not demons, why eat humans?" Gu Qingfeng retorted, as if exposing a hidden truth.
"Because you’re tasty!"
With that, the giant ceased talking and attacked.
A five-meter brute swung his stone ax straight at Gu Qingfeng’s head.
Bam!
Gu Qingfeng retaliated with a punch, smashing into the ax and sending the giant stumbling back several meters.
Though he had struck first, his expression remained grim.
Because these giants… truly weren’t demons.
