The two disciples of Baiwu Ancestor, Liu Nan Sheng and Zhou Zhenghai, walked out of the hall one after another. The former was about to leave when he was stopped by the latter.
“Junior Brother Liu, did you tell Master about Senior Sister sealing the teleportation array and the situation of searching the Immortal City?”
Zhou Zhenghai asked with a hint of a smile.
“Because of this matter, our Sun Bathing Sea’s relationship with several major commerce associations is still tense. I had previously ordered a precious elixir from the Grass Hall to break through a bottleneck, and it still hasn’t arrived. It must be because of this reason…”
Liu Nan Sheng complained a little, neither admitting nor denying it.
“Junior Brother Liu, Senior Sister is Master’s favorite disciple. If you keep tattling like this, you should be careful once Senior Sister attains the ’Nascent Soul Formation’.”
Compared to the later-entry Liu Nan Sheng, Zhou Zhenghai knew more. Besides being Baiwu Ancestor’s disciple, Zhu Jun was also a concubine.
Because of such an intimate relationship, Zhu Jun was able to cultivate all the way to the Perfect Core Formation realm, and Baiwu Ancestor even used a precious Sunwood Heart to help her acquire the Three Lights Divine Water.
Although Zhu Jun didn’t succeed in the ’Nascent Soul Formation’, her status in Baiwu Ancestor’s heart dropped a little, but even so, the other nine of the Ten True of Sun Bathing were still no match for her combined.
Liu Nan Sheng’s expression slightly changed upon hearing this.
“Brother Zhou, I have a treasured jar of White Dew Sparrow Tongue in my Cave Dwelling. Why not come over for a cup? There are many matters within the sect I need to consult you on.”
Hearing Liu Nan Sheng’s words, Zhou Zhenghai nodded with satisfaction.
White Dew Sparrow Tongue is a fourth-grade spirit tea, and the tea garden where the mother tree is located is tended by Liu Nan Sheng. Usually, only Baiwu Ancestor has the privilege to enjoy it freely.
Zhou Zhenghai could receive a few taels annually, which he had already finished.
Seeing Liu Nan Sheng being so savvy, it was not in vain for Zhou Zhenghai to offer a reminder.
Little did the two know, their conversation was overheard by Baiwu Ancestor.
However, he was currently preoccupied with disciplining the tender-skinned disciple in his arms.
After being heavily punished, Zhu Jun, breathing gently, inquired about the outcome of the recent battle among the Four Great Nascent Souls of the East Barbarians.
She couldn’t understand why Baiwu Ancestor suddenly returned from the Mysterious Sea and spared Kong Sang Valley.
“Originally, Mu Qin and Ku Zhu were about to be slain by me and Jin Feng working together. But at the critical moment, a pitch-black island unexpectedly emerged from the seabed where we battled, and a mysterious black-robed cultivator intervened, using a magic artifact to separate the four of us.”
“Fortunately, the black-robed cultivator had no intention to kill, merely taking Ku Zhu away, saying his constitution was special and could accept the inheritance of Submerged Abyss Island. If he could pass the trials, he would become one of the future Hall of Ten Directions Hall Masters.”
“Mu Qin went along with him. Jin Feng and I dared not follow, so we returned for now.”
“If Ku Zhu truly passes Submerged Abyss Island’s trials, his future achievements might be limitless. Hence, it wasn’t necessary for me to eradicate Kong Sang Valley completely, so I let them go.”
As he spoke, Baiwu Ancestor also snorted coldly.
The two sects had besieged Kong Sang Valley for over ten years. As long as Mu Qin and Ku Zhu were killed, with Golden Wind Ancestor having a limited lifespan, the East Barbarians’ territory would be at his beck and call.
But just as victory seemed within grasp, the situation was disrupted by Submerged Abyss Island, leaving him undeniably displeased.
“Unexpectedly, the inheritance of Submerged Abyss Island is still intact.”
Zhu Jun was also taken aback upon hearing this.
It’s one of the Hall of Ten Directions of the Eastern Emperor Court and at its peak, it was guarded by Divinity Transformation Cultivators, a force to reckoned with suppressing the Mysterious Sea on behalf of the court.
However, in the great battle between the Human Emperor and the Nine-Headed Great Saint, the Divinity Transformation of Submerged Abyss Island perished too, sending its lineage into decline. Yet surprisingly, remnants of it still remained within the Mysterious Sea.
“Now is the era where the Holy Land rules over the East Continent. Submerged Abyss Island belonged to the past along with the Eastern Emperor Court. Even if Ku Zhu receives the inheritance and sees rapid cultivation progress, I have Golden Crow Immortal City and am unafraid of him.”
Baiwu Ancestor spoke with an arrogant expression; their Sun Bathing Sea could trace its roots back to an ancient Holy Land of the East, with a legacy not inferior to that of Submerged Abyss Island.
Nonetheless, for not managing to kill Ku Zhu nor annihilate Kong Sang Valley completely, it wasn’t a necessity to push the matter any further.
“Why, then, didn’t Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace take any action? They clearly have a blood feud with Kong Sang Valley.”
Zhu Jun found this point very puzzling.
Sun Bathing Sea possesses the Eastern Barbarians’ leading Immortal City, guarded by a Fifth-Rank Great Formation, fearing nothing unless faced by a Divinity Transformation intervention. Thus, they have the confidence to reconcile with Ku Zhu.
But Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace is different. Ku Zhu would want to find Golden Wind Ancestor for revenge upon reaching the Nascent Soul stage, and for them it’s a matter of life and death.
“He indeed wanted to strike, but under the condition that I held back, even combined with Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace, they couldn’t breach the Fourth Grade Superior Great Formation of Kong Sang Valley in a short period.”
“So after I left with the disciples from the Sun Bathing Sea, that old ghost Jin Feng pretended to leave a way out for Kong Sang Valley and followed me in retreat.”
“But in his heart, he must be very worried, probably already considering his escape route.”
Baiwu Ancestor mentioned this, suddenly recalling the time when Ancestor Hunyuan passed away in meditation, and he and Golden Wind Ancestor schemed about the Eastern Wilderness.
However, he was interested in the Primordial Dao Fruit inherited by the Five Elements Sect, while Golden Wind Ancestor wanted to turn the Eastern Wilderness into his own backyard. Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace is an Alchemy Major Sect, and with more medicine fields, they could train more disciples. This might lead to the emergence of a Second Nascent Soul benefiting from this.
“Just right, that Jin Feng old ghost is also a Nascent Soul. In that rural area of Eastern Wilderness, the highest cultivation level is Core Formation. I can write a letter to him, saying that if he’s willing to lead Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace to leave the East Barbarians and retreat to the Eastern Wilderness, when Ku Zhu returns, I can mediate for Ku Zhu to leave Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace lineage there.”
Baiwu Ancestor suddenly thought of the tactic of driving wolves to swallow tigers. If Sect Master Chen of Five Elements Sect is truly a Taoist Child cultivated by First Origin Dao Palace, then in order to resist Golden Wind Ancestor, he will have to reveal his cards.
If not, and the Five Elements Sect is directly destroyed by Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace, that would be a good thing for Baiwu Ancestor.
Because the two of them, master and apprentice, have some karmic ties with the Five Elements Sect.
It’s a perfect opportunity to settle everything once and for all.
“Master, there’s one more thing. Our spies in Northern Abyss City just sent some intelligence…”
Zhu Jun, after hearing, also praised Baiwu Ancestor’s plan. However, the main premise is that Five Elements Sect doesn’t have Nascent Soul Cultivators.
“Previously, the Golden Sun Spirit Tree on the mountain top of Northern Abyss City crossed the tribulation to become Rank-4 Everlife Wood, but the power of that heavenly tribulation was a bit too strong. The spy suspected it might be the Sect Master Chen of Five Elements Sect undergoing the Yuan Infant Heavenly Tribulation…”
At this point, Zhu Jun reached towards the storage bag on her garment that had fallen to the ground, soon extracting the recorded intelligence from it.
Baiwu Ancestor immediately took it, carefully read through it, and then his expression relaxed immediately.
“It states that Sect Master Chen of Five Elements Sect easily destroyed the heavenly tribulation with the Thunder Purple Sword. This definitely indicates it’s not the Yuan Infant Heavenly Tribulation. In the thousands of years of history recorded in the Heaven Burning and Earth Cleansing Scriptures inherited by Sun Bathing Sea, such a thing never happened. It must be the heavenly tribulation from the level-up of a Rank-3 Spirit Plant. Only then could he easily help pass through.”
As for the intelligence mentioning the heavenly tribulation’s power was so great that it almost enveloped half of Northern Abyss City, Baiwu Ancestor dismissed it as the disciples being inexperienced.
That Everlife Wood is ultimately the foundation of the legendary Heavenly Sovereign. Maybe the one transplanted to Northern Abyss City was carefully cultivated by the Five Elements Sect, deeply rooted, resulting in a stronger heavenly tribulation during the level-up.
“Master is experienced and knowledgeable. I am far from your level.”
Zhu Jun sincerely praised Baiwu Ancestor after hearing his analysis.
“Hmph, you still have a lot to learn.”
Upon hearing this, Baiwu Ancestor reached out and pressed down his disciple, who appeared like a lady of a noble family.
After some minor reprimand and major admonition between master and apprentice, Zhu Jun’s mistake was considered forgiven and forgotten.
Later, Baiwu Ancestor personally visited, apologizing to several Commerce Association representatives of the Holy Lands. Some accepted, while others continued to give him a cold shoulder.
Although Baiwu Ancestor felt embarrassed, the gesture was made regardless.
Meanwhile, Zhu Jun, under the pretense of making amends, represented Sun Bathing Sea and headed to Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace.
When she returned to Golden Crow Immortal City, Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace suddenly dispatched disciples to harvest mature Spirit Plant Medicinal Materials from the medicine fields. Moreover, the cultivator army that had just returned was gathered again.
Such a commotion naturally couldn’t escape the attention of the Five Elements Sect members.
Zhou Shengqing immediately instructed Yu Lian to take this news back.
Zhou Shengqing had recently met True Person Ming Wen from Kong Sang Valley, but even she did not know the situation of Nascent Souls Mu Qin and Ku Zhu—only that Mu Qin sent a talisman instructing them to activate the large formation and guard themselves while waiting for their return.
Zhou Shengqing learned from this talisman that Mu Qin and Ku Zhu were alive.
He wanted to explore the outcomes of the East Barbarians’ battle of the Four Great Nascent Souls, but soon he had no time for it.
Because Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace suddenly dispatched a team of elite cultivators into the Ruins.
Zhou Shengqing personally tracked them for a while, discovering they were heading towards the Eastern Wilderness.
To avoid alerting the enemy, he held back from taking action.
Instead, he deliberately attracted some demonic beasts from the Ruins into the path of Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace cultivators, delaying their journey.
Northern Abyss City.
After receiving Yu Lian’s news, Chen Mobai instructed the Five Elements Sect Disciples on the Donghuang Border to hide, then allowed this group from Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace to enter.
Leading this group was a Foundation Establishment Practitioner, who cautiously disguised his team, pretending to be a small sect caravan from the East Barbarians. Upon entering Northern Abyss City, they investigated many things, even visited Sky Meal Building.
Seven days later, this group left the Eastern Wilderness with the false intelligence arranged by Chen Mobai.
