Por dez mil anos, no grande reino de Qian, deuses e humanos conviveram juntos, mergulhados no caos. Sempre que a noite caía, criaturas demoníacas devoradoras de pessoas eram libertadas, deixando o povo em constante terror. Felizmente, havia praticantes do cultivo espiritual, capazes de voar pelos céus e atravessar a terra, transformando-se em deuses para proteger suas regiões. Eles perseguiam incessantemente o ápice, buscando ascender além dos nove céus. No entanto, ninguém poderia imaginar que, depois de enfrentar incontáveis perigos e finalmente alcançar os nove céus, eles se tornariam... uma deliciosa refeição.

Yet none of the four showed any relief or even glanced at the outcome. Instead, they suddenly transformed into gusts of wind and fled.
Within moments, they had escaped at least fifty miles.
Only then did they slightly breathe easier and glance back, just in time to see the celestial net swallowed whole by the paper figure, which then drifted leisurely toward them once more.
Ling Xuzi’s face turned deathly pale. “At this rate, we’
