Chapter 79: The Identity of the Southern Territory Experti
The battle at Taiyan Holy Land concluded swiftly.
But the impact of that battle was indeed tremendous!
Those who participated in the battle were almost all the major powers from the various territories.
Having witnessed everything that took place in the battle, all the major powers were profoundly shaken.
When they arrived, they all harbored thoughts of divvying up the Southern Territory, but upon departure, they had completely abandoned such ideas.
At the same time, they all turned their attention to another matter!
The peerless recluse living outside of the Cangli Mountain Range!
Cihang Holy Abode.
"Yujie, prepare immediately; I am taking you to the Cangli Mountain Range!”
As soon as she arrived at the sect gate, the Cihang Saint Lord spoke directly, filled with urgency!"It’s now confirmed that the peerless being resides around the outskirts of the Cangli Mountain Range, his realm unimaginable. Even Long Zixuan and Lu Rang, once deemed as waste, have become remarkable talents under his guidance. If you could be taken as his disciple, your future would be unimaginable…”
The Cihang Saint Lord was very earnest as he added,
“We must be quick!”
The eyes of Cihang Holy Maiden, Kong Yujie, were also filled with anticipation as she replied,
“Good!!”
Kongming Temple.
"Qing Chen, all of your cultivation has been destroyed, and even I can’t help you… Now, the senior living in the outskirts of the Cangli Mountain Range is your only hope.”
The Saint Teacher Kongming looked at the monk Qing Chen lying before him, sighed, and said:
” I will escort you there.”
Qing Chen, with sadness in his eyes, asked,
“But Teacher, now that I’ve become a cripple, would that senior still take me in…”
"Not necessarily. Everything is predestined, and for such a hard-to-find, distinguished person, this is all the more true.”
"It all depends on whether you have the destiny…”
Dugu Clan.
"Master, I will definitely gain that senior’s recognition on behalf of the Dugu Clan!”
The young man in white robes spoke seriously to Dugu Chenlu.
He was Dugu Chenlu’s only son, Dugu Yuqing.
Dugu Chenlu nodded and said,
“Inform the youths of the clan to assemble; I’ll take you there.”
"Even the ones with the lowest aptitude should go.”
Hearing this, Dugu Yuqing appeared stunned and questioned,
“Father, why would those with low aptitude go?”
Dugu Chenlu explained,
“That senior’s recruitment of disciples may not necessarily be based on one’s aptitude. After all, the aptitudes of Long Zixuan and Lu Rang were previously unspeakable…”
Almost all of the Holy Lands, clans, and so on had one thing in common after leaving—they sent the most elite individuals from their sects to the outskirts of Cangli Mountain Range.
If they could gain that person’s favor like Lu Rang and Long Zixuan, it would be the highest honor for their entire sect!
Meanwhile, at a certain location in the Xuan Tian Realm, where clouds stretched endlessly, the void blurred, at the edge of the Xuanhuang Mist Sea.
“Not good!”
The leader of the black robed figures suddenly let out a cry.
Two lamps appeared in his hands instantly, their flames already extinguished!
“The Soul Lamps have gone out… Have Luo Ming and the other perished?!” The other black robed figures, seeing this, were also struck with shock and dismay!
"Zang Xuan is dead, and now even Luo Ming and his companion have died in the Southern Territory? How is that possible!”
"Two True Immortals, there’s simply no force throughout the entire Xuan Tian Realm that could threaten them…”
"Exactly, this doesn’t make sense, what exactly is hidden in the Southern Territory?”
For a moment, everyone was discussing and doubting amongst themselves!
The leader of the black robed figures’ expression darkened to the extreme.
"I, Yu Chenbing, have eradicated three realms consecutively, obtaining three World Trees, and have never suffered setbacks!”
"In this minor Xuan Tian Realm, to lose three True Immortals is disgraceful!” He spoke with anger in his words.
"Leader, what should we do now? Shall we all head to the Southern Territory?” One of the black robed figures inquired.
"Idiots.”
Yu Chenbing issued a cold rebuke,
“The current situation in the Southern Territory is unclear, but clearly, there exists a being capable of killing a True Immortal… We must not rush in before we have understood the matter.”
“Wait, wait for Chen Yun to return!”
His eyes shot out a cold light,
“I believe this matter must be related to the Immortal Domain!”
Immortal Domain.
The vast and boundless Immortal Domain, with territories spanning billions of li, endless and limitless!
The Immortal Domain is divided into the Five Domains and Thirty-Three Heavens!
The Five Domains refer to the Central Immortal Domain, Northern Immortal Domain, Southern Immortal Domain, Western Immortal Domain, and Eastern Immortal Domain.
Apart from the Central Immortal Domain, which is encircled by the other Four Immortal Domains and whose borders have been defined, the areas of the North, South, East, and West Immortal Domains have never been fully explored.
Beneath the Five Great Immortal Domains are what are claimed to be the Million Lower Realms.
The Million Lower Realms are each linked to different regions of the Immortal Domain.
Northern Immortal Domain.
The far northern border.
A colossal Immortal City stands upon the land; from afar, the city brims with spiritual energy, like clouds that billow and surge.
"Saint Cloud City!”
In the grand scheme of the Immortal Domain, this was merely the smallest of cities and located at the far edge of the Northern Immortal Domain, akin to a small city in a remote and impoverished region.
But it also boasts over nine million cultivators!
Around the city were countless minor sect gates.
At this moment, a middle-aged cultivator clad in a black robe stood before Saint Cloud City.
"The Five Great Immortal Domains correspond to a million Lower Worlds, finding the region of the Immortal Domain that corresponds to an obscure Lower World like Xuan Tian Realm is truly too difficult…”
“…After spending over a thousand top-grade Immortal Spirit Stones and reaching out to countless individuals, I have only managed to discover that Xuan Tian Realm should belong to one of the twenty-one Lower Realms connected to Saint Cloud City…”
Muttering to himself, he paid the thirty top-grade Immortal Spirit Stones required to enter the city and stepped into Saint Cloud City.
Upon entering Saint Cloud City, he headed directly to the
“Immortal History Pavilion”!
Due to the sheer vastness of the Immortal Domain, each of the Five Great Immortal Domains has a dedicated sect responsible for recording the chronicles of the Immortal Domain.
Such sects have established
“Immortal History Pavilions” in every city.
There, one could find all the noteworthy records about the city.
Before long, he had arrived at the Immortal History Pavilion.
After paying some Immortal Spirit Stones at the pavilion, a cultivator inside guided him.
"May I know what content you wish to inquire about?”
The cultivator dressed in linen said,
“All records concerning cultivators from Saint Cloud City entering the Lower Worlds!”
The person in charge nodded and responded,
“This information is available for perusal. Follow me.”
Shortly after, the middle-aged cultivator was led to a row of bookshelves.
The middle-aged cultivator began to search.
The records were not excessive because entering the Lower World from the Immortal Domain is extremely difficult and requires a significant sacrifice.
Even over the course of thousands of years, there weren’t many records.
“Huh?”
Suddenly, the middle-aged man in linen discovered an entry:
"Three hundred years ago, a Demon Cultivator infiltrated the Sect of the Heavenly Soul and stole the sect’s treasured Heaven Soul Bead, inflicting heavy damage on the Sect of the Heavenly Soul as he fled into the Lower World. His exact whereabouts are unknown.”
"Note: The individual is extremely vicious, with a cultivation level of a Heavenly Immortal. Ruthless in action, he has killed numerous True Immortals and Profound Immortals, and those slain by him often perish completely with their souls scattered!”
"Note: To this day, the Sect of the Heavenly Soul and Saint Cloud City continue to offer a bounty for this person, but he remains uncatchable due to the inability to determine which world he is in.”
His gaze firmly fixed on this particular record!
Ruthless in action, those he killed perished completely, their souls scattered!
” Isn’t that exactly how Zang Xuan died, with his life force cut off and his soul dissipated…”
"Moreover, upon reviewing the records of the past two thousand years, this is the only individual who went to the Lower World and has yet to return!”
“Could it be him?!”
The middle-aged man closed the records and departed.
Not long after, he left Saint Cloud City.
"In the Southern Territory of Xuan Tian Realm, the one who killed Zang Xuan must be this Demon Cultivator. I must immediately notify Yu Chenbing…”
He murmured to himself.
