Wongg!
"..Will you stop holding my hand already?" Duan Li said as he looked at Queen Levy with a purple shade on his face right after they stepped out from the copper vortex.
While the Queen of the Parasitic Killerworm had already transformed herself into a ravishing beauty, the fact still remained that her true form was that of a hybrid snake and a leech!
The mere thought of holding hands with such a creature, even if he was desperate, there was no way that he would ever went for this woman ever!
"Ufufufu.. husband, why are you being so shy? Could it be that you are still.." the Queen said as she sniffed Duan Li's scent. Her eyes then brightened up as she found her initial conjecture to be correct!
This husband of her's was still a pure man! What a good find!
Seeing that lewd look of the woman licking on her lips, Duan Li's face stiffened. "You'd better not get too full of yourself. While I have indeed forgiven you, it doesn't mean that I have forgotten what you have done. Behave yourself!"
And who is your husband? Husband your granduncle!!
"Eh.. fine.." the Queen pouted her mouth as she let go of Duan Li's hand. She then turned to Di Rou and sized her up and down.
Body proportions and face..
"You are not too bad. But he is my husband! Hmph!" she said with an arrogant look on her as she spoke the human tongue.
The other party was definitely a beauty, but when compared to her more curvy figure and the way they dressed, this woman was a little bit lacking in that aspect because she was wearing all black without any other accessories.
When compared to her, just her loose robe had already accentuated her attractiveness that could lead to many men drool on their own wild imaginations. Not to mention on how she could release specific hormones that would drive any male species crazy.
However, she was bound to be surprised, because with a calm expression and her eyes closed, Di Rou retorted back, "Whether or not the Master is your husband, it is not for you to decide. Either way, I am but only his right hand. Surely, in terms of usefulness, an official subordinate like me could provide more than a self-proclaimed wife."
While she was usually a quiet person, that does not mean that she doesn't have a personality.
"You..!" the both of them then stared at one another as visible sparks flew in between.
Meanwhile, Duan Li laughed heartily in himself, trying hard to suppress it from coming out after hearing Di Rou's perfect counter. He nodded in satisfaction with a thumbs up.
That's my Di Rou!

However, there was one thing that bugged him. Just now, that Queen was clearly speaking in a human tongue!
Wasn't she complaining about how there was no one whom could understand her? If she could speak in the human tongue, then surely every single human could understand her!
Just what is wrong with this woman?
"Alright, knock it off. Di Rou, you may return back to my shadow, and you Levy.. I'll just put you inside my spatial ring along with the rest." Duan Li said as the two seemed to want to start a fight soon if he did not break them up.
Queen Levy was evidently confused when Duan Li said that, because as far as she know, living things could not be stored inside a spatial ring ever!
There would only be two possible outcome for such an action; either the spatial ring would reject her, or she would suffocate and die if it was successful
"Husband, don't tell me that you are still.." she said with a saddened face.
Noticing the befuddled expression on the latter, Di Rou chuckled slightly. "You country bumpkin. How would someone like you even try to question the means of the Imperial Overseer? Clearly you are a frog at the bottom of a well." she said with a trace of disdain and then single kneeled towards Duan Li. "Master, I will return first."
Whoosh..
Just like that, Di Rou merged back with Duan Li's shadow leaving the stifled Queen behind.
"Damned sl*t! I'll make sure to.." before she could even finish her sentence, Duan Li had already waved his hand and stored the latter inside his spatial ring.
Sigh..
This woman sure had some mouth. I guess I'll just have to ask her about being able to talk in the human tongue later on.
'Let's see now..'
Turning to look at the stone tablet, two of the four symbols were currently glowing in bronze and copper color respectively.
From the looks of it, he really needed to beat the next two trials in order to complete the maze!
Tap!
He stepped onto the gazebo to press at another symbol just like before.
Wengg!!
A silver colored ray of light shone out from the stone tablet and flew onto the stone statue on the South direction, causing it to glow in silver!
Weng!
This particular statue was dressed as a scholar contrary to the previous two statues; one which was wearing a martial artist uniform and another a cultivator's robe.
"If the bronze statue tested my martial arts prowess, and the copper statue tested my cultivation strength, then this scholarly looking statue.. would it test my knowledge next?" he thought to himself as he cupped his chin.
I guess I will just have to find out..
Walking towards the South statue, a vortex that was silver in color appeared and Duan Li stepped inside it.
Wongg!
...
High up above the volcano, Dugu Liubai was sweating profusely like crazy. His face was pale and his eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost! But it was understandable why someone of his status were in such a state.
After all, he had witnessed something that could rattle his very soul..
The Grand Immortal! That was the Grand Immortal damnit!
Who would have thought that it was the Grand Immortal himself that would showed up at the very last moment just when Duan Li was about to destroy the whole trial room?
Initially, he thought that Duan Li would be in danger when the Queen of the Parasitic Killerworms appeared and was about to take action, but the one that was almost sliced into two was instead the Queen herself!
Imagine his shock when he saw that a monster that someone of his realm would have trouble in dealing with could almost be killed by a Core formation realm cultivator?
Granted that Duan Li was a special case whom could even rival Nascent Soul realm experts and would be able to make them run for their money, but this was a monster that had reached the realm of immortality!
Even amongst the juiciest gossips spread around the lower realm of Heaven, he had never even heard of a case as such from other people!
But that was not the end of his roller coster shocks; the Grand Immortal himself had to appear in the end!
Even though it was only a figment of the latter's will, the Grand Immortal was still THE Grand Immortal! A person whom they revered in utmost to the point of almost worshipping him!
Not to mention, he had never been able to witness the Grand Immortal himself even before he became the Guardian of the Second region. But he knew the will was THE Grand Immortal, because every single Guardians of the Eternal Maze would need to step onto the coronation altar and pay respects to the latter's statue, which contained the essence of the Grand Immortal's majestic presence!
Who was the Grand Immortal?
The Grand Immortal was a Celestial being, an Immortal that had ascended to the realms similar to that of a godhood!
Celestial beings were capable of performing numerous miracles under the realms of their governance, and the Eternal Maze was one of the realm made by the Grand Immortal!
What that means was that, the Grand Immortal could provide an impetus for one to ascend to immortality and beyond!
Without the grace and blessings of a Celestial being, no one would be able to step into the realm of immortality, just like his old homeworld..
The Tian Continent!
For some reason or another, despite their otherworldly powers, Celestial beings could not bless worlds below the realm of Heavens, which was the realms of the mortals.
The universe, which contained everything in existence, was separated into two realms; which was the Mortal realm and the Heaven realm. Rumors said that there was another realm beyond the two, but Dugu Liubai was not sure of whether that was true or not.
Regardless, the universe, if imagined into a single pillar, at the bottom of it were where the Mortal realm was located. Innumerable amounts of worlds similar to that of the Tian continent exists, and the races from each world were different from one another.
When he knew this for the first time, his worldview exploded and his horizon widened.
The Heaven realm on the other hand, was further divided into three; Lower Heaven realm, Higher Heaven realm and Upper Heaven realm!
Normal immortals like them, could only wander around the Lower Heaven realm, and the Higher Heaven realm was only accessible for Celestial beings!
In fact, the Lower Heaven realm could be said to be made up of worlds created by THE Celestial beings!
All the worlds, such as this Eternal Maze in the Lower Heaven realm, could only be accessible through numerous 'Gates' connected to worlds of the Mortal realm!
As such, if a cultivator wishes to truly ascend and become an immortal, they would have to enter these 'Gates' first!
But how would becoming an immortal be that easy? The Heavenly tribulation that one had to go through had reaped countless lives for those who dared to step into the realm through the eons, and he was only one among the luckiest ones to survive!
To put a salt into the wounds of those who survive and become an immortal - they could not go back into their own world!
At least not until they release the Second shackle and reach the Omnipresence realm state anyway, and by the time they did, time would have already advanced and past by the hundreds, if not thousands of years!
At that point, even if they did return, what would be even left for them in their old world where not a single person they knew was alive anymore?
Therefore, rarely do immortals ever went back to their home world, regardless if they have the capability. One might think that the immortals could lord over the mortals if they return and enjoy a lifetime of riches as their ruler, but how could things be that simple?
There were those nine inviolable entities in the highest of the Heaven realm - Upper Heaven realm! They were entities whom stood above even the Celestial beings, and they were called as the Soverigns, or Eternal Lords of All-Era!
They were truly undying beings, and all laws in existence was sourced from them!
If an immortal wishes to disturb the realms of the mortals, it was highly likely that they would be erased from existence on the spot!
Thus, only fools would dare to court a bastard's death!
The Soverigns had existed by themselves, and has been like so since the beginning of time itself. Each of them were symbiotic in nature, and they were in charge of many different aspects of the universe. Wisdom, Knowledge, Fulfillment, Emotions, Justice, Balance, Time, Existence and Power - their role was to disseminate and watch over each of these nine aspects in the whole universe!
As such, even Celestial beings, whom possessed many worlds of their own creations and blessings, was still under the scrutiny of the Sovereigns without exception, albeit has much more freedom when compared to the immortals.
Hais!
"If only I knew the Grand Immortal would appear.." Dugu Liubai shook his head and lamented on his luck.
