Chapter 1350: Chapter 1318: The Expedition Plan to the Ancient Divine Domain, Peering Above Harmonization

The Xianmen Sect and the Eight Great Immortal Sects engaged in heated debates over the post-war situation, occasionally shifting their arguments into physical confrontations, clashing repeatedly in the starry sky.

In the end, the Eight Great Immortal Sects were unable to break through the Xianmen Sect’s formation method, and the Xianmen Sect dared not step out of the Nine Spirits Realm, nor divide their forces to defend the Mother Star.

Both sides halted their war and resumed discussions on the necessity of a new treaty.

They exchanged sharp words and argued fiercely, presenting various perspectives and reasons.

Finally, a brand-new Heavenly Dao Treaty emerged.

This treaty of the Heavenly Dao consolidated the strongest binding curse power currently available to the Nine Great Immortal Sects, ensuring that violators would pay a heavy price, at least bordering death or severe injury, far beyond the weight of mere paper.

The Xianmen Sect ceded half of the Nine Spirits Realm, and the remaining Minor Thousand Worlds were defined based on their current territorial boundaries.

With the treaty signed, the atmosphere between the two sides calmed considerably, no longer bristling with hostility.

Only the Great Expert of Xuanwu Heavenly Palace wore a grim expression.

The interests of Xuanwu Heavenly Palace had not been satisfied.

In the Nine Spirits Realm, they controlled only ten Minor Thousand Worlds, and in the Horned Ming Realm, merely over twenty; these paltry figures could not compare to any other Immortal Sect and were unworthy of their sect’s strength.

He was unwilling and resentful.

Yet, the other Seven Great Experts did not support him.

Alone, he could not contend against the Eastern Devil School and was forced to endure.

“Sigh!”

“Nine Spirits Realm… truly a cursed place!”

The Great Expert of the Five Elements Heavenly Sect sighed deeply, “First, the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, and then you other meddling sects.”

“If the Five Elements Heavenly Sect were born in another domain, we would have already swept across the lands, claiming multiple domains in conquest, rather than exhausting ourselves in these internecine battles and stalemates.”

The surrounding Great Experts shook their heads faintly.

“Fellow Daoist of Five Elements speaks with reason; the path of internal warfare and annexation is indeed unwise.”

“We should look outward.”

A Great Expert of the Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace withdrew an ancient scroll and unfurled a drawing. It depicted a vast starry map, dazzling with countless starlights. At its center, three radiant worlds of Medium Thousand scale shined brilliantly—any one of them far surpassed the Nine Spirits Realm in luminescence.

These three Medium Thousand Worlds revolved together in adjacent starry spaces, forming an awe-inspiring World Ring.

“Do any of you know this place?”

The Great Expert of the Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace inquired.

His question was primarily aimed at the Xianmen Sect.

The other Great Experts remained composed, clearly already aware of the location, a key reason they were unwilling to engage in a life-or-death struggle here.

The Outer Realm’s starry sky held equal opportunities, making it unnecessary to fixate on the thorny Eastern Devil School.

Moreover, the army formations of the Eastern Devil School were undeniably terrifying. If they joined forces with the Eight Great Immortal Sects’ formations, their collective strength would skyrocket. This was evident during their campaigns in the Horned Ming Realm—a truth they often reminisced about.

“Ancient Divine Path?”

Far’s heart trembled with astonishment.

This was a direction unexplored by the Xianmen Sect, as the sect’s internal wars and bitter struggles consumed vast energy, leaving no room for broader distractions.

“Fellow Daoist, as always, you reveal your detestable savvy,”

The Great Expert of Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace sighed lightly.

The Heavenly Mechanism Dao thrives on overwhelming intelligence—crushing opposition with superior information, blocking others’ sight, and enabling meticulous strategies.

“Is it the young disciple?”

He turned to Jiang Ding, eyes kindly: “Would you permit an elder like me to inspect the Ancient God Order, the artifact that flew from the Yin-Yang Reversal Equalizing King Formation of Yama Hell that day?”

The collective will of the Xianmen Sect Fleet deliberated briefly.

“If it is what the elder needs, then there is no reason to refuse.”

Jiang Ding bowed respectfully.

Soon, an ancient token flew out from the army formation, landing in the hands of the white-haired, highly cultivated expert of the Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace wielding an abacus.

In appearance, male cultivators seemed to prefer the mature and steady look of a venerable elder, while female cultivators often leaned toward youth and beauty—there was a marked difference.

“Ancient Divine Path, Ancient God Order.”

“In ages past, a sect wielding unrivaled power named the Ancient Divine Path ruled this domain. The Horned Demon Imperial Clan, the Black Corner Ant Clan, and the Skull Blood Vine Demon Clan—all Harmonization forces—were its slaves. Its strength was awe-inspiring.”

The Great Expert of Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace carefully scrutinized the Ancient God Order, introducing it to the group: “The Ancient God Order was the sect’s method of selecting inheritance disciples.”

“There are two types of orders—Yin Orders and Yang Orders.”

“Yang Orders are meant for true disciples, with stringent requirements on origin, disposition, and innate talent. These disciples inherit the core teachings of the sect.”

“Yin Orders are similar to Yang Orders but differ in a sinister aspect invisible even to envoys conducting the selection.”

“Reportedly, holders of Yin Orders would, at a specific moment when disciples fully mature, be seized by some eerie presence from the Ancient Divine Path, undergoing silent replacement. Some of these replacements display drastic personality shifts, while the majority behave entirely as usual, evoking dread.”

“It’s uncertain whether this young cultivator holds a Yang Order or a Yin Order.”

The Great Expert of Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace shook his head.

He deduced the Ancient God Order’s coordinates within two realms before returning it to Jiang Ding, losing interest in the token.

Jiang Ding dared not retrieve it directly.

The Xianmen Sect Fleet projected beams of light to seize the Ancient God Order, repeatedly scanning and intending to analyze it for another century before returning it.

“Elder’s mastery of the Heavenly Mechanism Dao is inspiring,”

Far admired earnestly.

The Central Array Spirit Computer could achieve such feats too, but only with sufficient clues to analyze traces left by the Horned Demon Imperial Clan’s legacy and remains, reverse-engineering the findings. Only then could clarity be achieved.

The prediction technique of Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace was akin to conjuring miracles, profoundly astonishing.

“A mere superficial skill.”

“Some knowledge comes from dealings with the Jiaoming Emperor, whom I intentionally fought leniently to avoid a death match.”

The Great Expert of Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace displayed amusement.

“This…”

Far froze in disbelief.

Would anyone dare admit such matters outright?

While the Xianmen Sect also wavered and allocated much strength to guard against the Eight Great Immortal Sects’ treacherous moves—given their untrustworthy nature—the admission was shocking.

“Hahaha!”

“Merely jesting; Fellow Daoist need not take it seriously.”

The Great Expert of Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace laughed warmly: “This Horned Ming Realm once belonged to the Ancient Divine Path. Thirty millennia ago, this sect suffered a catastrophic upheaval, with two major slave clans rebelling. They slew their masters and annihilated the disciples of the Ancient Divine Path, claiming dominance over this domain.”

“To this day, the Ancient Divine Path has yet to return.”

“Hence, I conclude that the Ancient Divine Path must either have not recovered its strength or already been completely obliterated, likely lacking any existence beyond Harmonization.”

“This is our opportunity.”

“Far,”

The Great Expert of Heavenly Mechanism Immortal Palace’s gaze burned with endless ambition: “I propose an expedition to the Ancient Divine Domain, the domain that possesses three Medium Thousand Worlds. If entities beyond Harmonization dwell within, we will face annihilation or retreat to continue building strength until reaching Harmonization Peak.”

“If the Ancient Divine Domain lacks any existence beyond Harmonization,”

His eyes gleamed with killing intent.

“Then, you and I shall divide paths, each seeking a direction to expand, expand, expand to the utmost limit, ascend to cultivation base beyond Harmonization!”

“Should the domain prove vast enough, it would be best if neither of us ever crosses paths again in our lifetime.”
