“And now I am halted at 720, still some distance from the True Immortal List.”

“Indeed, the true immortals of this world, just within the Age Candle Immortal Court alone, are bursting with formidable beings, and I am still not among the topmost, not for a moment can I relax.”

If Han Yi’s thoughts were known to other true immortals, they would undoubtedly glare with anger. After all, he has cultivated for less than five hundred years, and the youngest among those on the True Immortal List are already three thousand years old.

This list is no trivial matter; true immortals who make it onto the list possess combat power comparable to some of the more ordinary Profound Immortals.

And as for those ranked in the top ten among the true immortals, they are even more powerful than the average Profound Immortal.

These are true and honest positions fought for in the Void Tower, and not limited by merely one’s realm.

Having assimilated the experience gained from hundreds of battles, he next checked the Immortal Marks he had now acquired.

[Immortal Marks: 420,981 points]

Han Yi’s face brightened with joy; these four hundred twenty thousand Immortal Marks could provide him with stronger equipment and an ample supply of Immortal Stones.

With his realm advanced to the peak of True Immortal, the number of Immortal Swords that he could sustain within Sword Realm was no longer just four.

He teleported away and arrived at the Original Art Dojo, then headed straight for the Immortal Trading Palace and directly sought out the Original Art Pavilion.

The Original Art Pavilion is the commercial pavilion of the Original Art Dojo, conducting business openly to both insiders and outsiders, offering certain preferential prices to the immortals of the dojo, and thus Han Yi naturally would not go to the Yi Long Pavilion to purchase Immortal Artifacts but instead turned to the Original Art Pavilion, where he had previously bought the Immortal Swords named Nirvana, State Altar, and Thunder Shock.

The true immortal who received him bore the Taoist title Jade Sun and had presided over the pavilion as the caretaker more than a hundred years ago when Han Yi bought the three Immortal Swords. More than a hundred years was not long for a true immortal, and the Jade Sun Taoist, despite his age, was not yet frail and naturally recognized Han Yi.

“Young friend Han Yi, it’s been many years since we’ve met, a distinguished guest arrives… Eh, your realm, that’s not right, peak True Immortal?”

“How… How is that possible?”

The Jade Sun Taoist started with a smile of welcome, but in less than half a breath, his eyes dramatically narrowed, his complexion changed, and he exclaimed in shock.

Because he was truly too astonished; most true immortals in the dojo knew of Han Yi when he first joined the Original Art Dojo.

Yet, after that, his position as a Profound Immortal was taken away, and he rarely went out to undertake dojo missions, naturally causing his fame to wane.

Of course.

As for Han Yi later receiving the Yuandao Immortal Stele given by a Jin Ming Golden Immortal to enter the Yuandao World, and then falling into the Yuandao World, this event, due to the storm in the Yuandao World, had not spread.

So, most true immortals who knew Han Yi believed that he was still in seclusion because it is not unusual for true immortals to seclude themselves for hundreds of years.

Inside the Original Art Pavilion, Han Yi nodded, which was as good as confirming it. He did not wish to dwell too long on this issue but instead directly stated his demands.

After staying in the pavilion for two full hours, Han Yi left with a face full of satisfaction.

After he departed, Jade Sun Taoist, with a solemn expression, entered a secret room, recorded Han Yi’s advancement to the peak of True Immortal and his substantial purchase of Immortal Artifacts–specifically second-stage Immortal Artifacts–onto a jade slip, preparing to report it to the Original Art Dojo.

This is the other purpose of the dojo’s commercial pavilion, collecting intelligence. Although Han Yi is a member of the dojo, the dojo requires that any key pieces of intelligence must be passed upward.

After leaving the Original Art Pavilion, Han Yi planned to return to the Original Art Dojo for cultivation. But midway, he suddenly halted because he sensed that far away in the Suigu Immortal City, the thread of Immortal Sense he had left on the Immortal Puppet transmitted a sense of urgent warning.

Too distant to convey specific information, but this urgent warning had been purposefully set up by Han Yi when he left the Immortal Sense behind, so that Lian Tingxi could trigger it if an emergency arose, and thus transmit this sense of urgency.

With a turn of thought, not daring to be negligent, he dashed to Jiu Chuan Plaza and then traveled through the Cross-realm Teleportation Array to arrive at the Ziwei Immortal City of the Daluo Fairy Court before proceeding to the Suigu Immortal City. Once in the Suigu Immortal City, the Immortal Sense he had left within the Immortal Puppet in the Xuandan Sect could now clearly discern what had happened.

His expression turned slightly cold, and a glint of killing intent flashed in his eyes: “Nine Lofty Immortal Sect.”

Then, without hesitation, he mounted his Escape Light and headed towards the Xuandan Sect.

The reason for the alarm from the Immortal Sense he had left in the Immortal Puppet was due to the emergence of an Immortal Sect called Nine Lofty in the Suigu Immortal City.

This Immortal Sect, which had moved from the western Lingxiao Immortal Court a hundred years ago, reestablished itself in the Suigu Immortal City. Positioned at either side of Suigu Immortal City with the Dazhuang Mountain Range, the sect openly declared having three true immortals within its ranks.

Initially, the Nine Lofty Immortal Sect was unassuming, and its disciples, mostly Sword Cultivators, but sixty years ago, immortals from Nine Lofty began to mingle frequently with the major Immortal Sects of Suigu Immortal City, exchanging information in an exceedingly warm manner.

Forty years ago, the Jade Spring Immortal Sect, which had two true immortals, was exterminated overnight, shocking Suigu Immortal City.

“`

Twenty years ago, another Immortal Sect named Torino was also massacred, but just before their True Immortal perished, he let out an astonishing exclamation resounding throughout the land, a single phrase: ‘Nine Lofty Immortal Thieves’ disturbed the entire region.

Since then, the Immortal Sects of Suigu Immortal City reacted, no longer contacting the Nine Lofty Immortal Sect, but instead becoming highly vigilant.

The name of the Nine Lofty Immortal Thieves spread throughout Suigu Immortal City.

And during these sixty years,

Nine Lofty True Immortal made multiple trips to Xuandan Sect, but each time was rebuffed by Lian Tingxi under the pretense of the Supreme True Immortal being in seclusion.

However, six years ago, Nine Lofty True Immortal tried to forcefully enter Xuandan Sect, his attitude resolute, verbally claiming he wanted to form an alliance with Xuandan Sect, but the real intention was clear to both parties.

Luckily, Lian Tingxi activated the Great Return to One Mysterious and Ultimate Array, which shocked and repelled the intruding True Immortal.

A few days ago, a Half-immortal slipped through the Immortal Array and broke into the sect, attempting to assassinate many of the Xuandan Sect’s high-level members, including Lian Tingxi himself, but fortunately, with the power of the Immortal Puppet, they were able to slay that Half-immortal.

Since then, facing the crisis of sect extermination, Lian Tingxi dared not make decisions recklessly, and, using the method once taught by Han Yi, he activated his Immortal Sense to send out this information.

This is the predicament Xuandan Sect has faced since the emergence of the Nine Lofty Immortal Sect.

It could even be said that there is now the danger of sect extermination.

The moment Han Yi teleported to Suigu Immortal City, the vague information in his Immortal Sense instantly became clear, informing him of the situation.

He knew that Lian Tingxi would not activate his Immortal Sense contingency unless it was a critical moment.

Travelling with the speed of mental realm Immortal Skill, it took only twenty breaths for him to arrive outside the Dazhuang Mountain Range, where he swept over the area with his Immortal Sense without any concern, since this place was his territory after all.

Immediately, he raised his eyebrows, and killing intent surged to the skies.

“How daring.”

His eyes blazed like fire as he looked towards a patch of the void on the other side of the Dazhuang Mountain Range. In that location, hidden within a folded layer of deep space, was a faint breath of life.

Had it been a normal True Immortal, such presence would have been difficult to detect, but Han Yi possessed the Morphing Fairy Art and was endowed with the Ancient Divine Pupil Skill; unless it was a Profound Immortal, they would hardly be able to elude his detection.

With a cold chuckle, he drew Qingping and swung out his sword, releasing a bright Sword Light that tore through space and streaked forward.

Yu Guangjian Book, Dawn.

Moreover, he did not use his full strength in this strike, merely half of his power; his intent was not to slay but to force the assailant to show himself, using him as bait to capture all in one net.

The True Immortal hidden in the void sensed mortal danger and rapidly attempted to escape, but his Taoist Immortal aura was merely that of an average True Immortal, not even reaching the level of a senior. Under Han Yi’s sword, one of his arms was destroyed, and he fled in panic.

Han Yi, Qingping in hand, calmly strolled behind the fleeing True Immortal, neither hurried nor slow. The murderous intent on his body was not intense, but neither was it completely concealed and was easily detectable.

He planned to use the fleeing True Immortal as bait, and moreover, he intended to do so blatantly, in a way reminiscent of an open conspiracy, luring out the other Immortals.

If he had been of low realm, for instance at the Foundation Establishment stage, he certainly would not have acted so brazenly; he might have used his divine ability to change form and follow stealthily, then employed a soul skill to search the soul, avoiding putting himself in danger.

But as of today, he had become a True Immortal. If he were still timid and indecisive, hesitating at every step, those five hundred years of cultivation would have been no better than feeding a dog.

In the Immortal Realm, one’s strength is their foundation. Han Yi was now fully aware of this.

He leisurely pursued, while the True Immortal ahead of him had become terrified, his face stricken with horror, continuously fleeing towards Nine Lofty Mountain where the Nine Lofty Immortal Sect was located.

Many Immortal Sects along the way were startled. Some True Immortals concealed their forms and followed behind. Han Yi paid them no mind, allowing them to trail behind, which was a good chance to establish his authority.

Moments later, the True Immortal who had lost an arm fled into Nine Lofty Mountain; Han Yi did not pause but followed into Nine Lofty Mountain.

At the same time, a voice filled with anger emanated from deep within Nine Lofty Mountain, resounding from afar.

“Fellow Daoist, why are you being so reckless? You laid an ambush outside our Nine Lofty Sect, injuring one of our sect’s Supreme True Immortals.”

“Disregarding the Daluo Immortal Law entirely, you are truly detestable.”
