Chapter 1398: Chapter 588: Ambushed on the Way, Ming Luo Hall Master Chapter 1398: Chapter 588: Ambushed on the Way, Ming Luo Hall Master Actually,

Han Yi attended the Immortal Convention of Ten Thousand Spirits for another reason; he wanted to experience the grand event of the Ten Thousand Spirits Sect and discover what made it unique.

The phrase “broad knowledge and wide perceptions” is equally applicable in the Cultivation World.

At the Immortal Convention, there were Ancestors preaching and Immortal Venerates discussing the Tao, which was greatly beneficial to him.

Although Nine Sparrows Hall had risen, its foundation was not strong. Even eight thousand years ago, when the nine veins coexisted, it was only a mid-tier Immortal Palace. Apart from a few Immortal Monarchs who noticed Jin Ming’s emergence, it caught the attention of the Fierce Sun Immortal Sovereign.

However, the Fierce Sun Immortal Sovereign’s expression was indifferent, showing no emotion, nor did he purposely probe Jin Ming. The attitude he exhibited towards the appearance of the Nine Sparrows Hall Master was almost of disinterest.

This attitude aligned with Jin Ming’s principle of keeping a low profile.

Suddenly,

Silver Sparrow Immortal Monarch leaned closer, directing his thoughts towards a certain direction, and whispered.

“Over there are the people from Ming Luo Hall, that young man with white eyebrows is Shu Li Immortal Monarch.”

“I have clashed with him in the past; though we only exchanged one move each, and no victor was determined, it was revealed that his strength is no less formidable than mine, making him a tricky opponent.”

“Now that I am severely injured, facing him, I could possibly hold him off with all my might, but no longer than the duration of an incense stick.”

Jin Ming Taoist followed his senses and looked in that direction, only to see a young man with white eyebrows who also noticed the gaze and turned to look back.

Their gazes met in the void, and although there were no extra fluctuations, both saw a meaningful gleam in the other’s eyes.

“Is there any clue about the Ming Luo Hall Master?” asked Jin Ming.

Silver Sparrow Immortal Monarch shook his head, “No, more than a thousand years ago, the Ming Luo Hall Master suddenly disappeared and has since been missing. It is rumored that even the other Immortals from Ming Luo Hall cannot contact him.”

“This matter is quite strange.”

“Inside the Fierce Sun Great Hall, some Immortal Monarchs speculate that the Ming Luo Hall Master might be trapped somewhere, or had an epiphany, which is why he lost contact for so long.”

Jin Ming Taoist nodded, his mind suddenly enlightened.

He had been the Nine Sparrows Hall Master for over a decade, and during this time, Ming Luo Hall had unusually taken no actions against Nine Sparrows Hall.

During this period, the Peak Immortal Monarch-level Hall Master disappeared, and the Deputy Hall Master, Star Dim Immortal Monarch, who possessed the strength of a senior Immortal Monarch, fell at Han Yi’s hands shortly after he received the legacy.

The remaining Shu Li Immortal Monarch, presumably upon hearing the news that Star Dim Immortal Monarch’s essence had perished, must have been utterly dumbfounded.

It was precisely because the Ming Luo Hall Master had disappeared, and Han Yi had taken action to eliminate Star Dim that in just a short period of time, the peak powers of both Nine Sparrows Hall and Ming Luo Hall had shifted.

Thanks to this, Nine Sparrows Hall had experienced rapid development over these dozen or so years. After undergoing the Immortal Assembly, Jin Ming felt that his cause and commitment with Nine Sparrows Hall were officially fulfilled.

After that, he would no longer be restricted, whether to stay or leave, he could decide for himself.

Things had gone so smoothly, it was something he had not anticipated at the start.

The Immortal Convention continued for no short duration, lasting a full month, but during this time, from the surface, all Immortals appeared harmoniously joyful, with no conflicts whatsoever.

That was also what the Immortal Assembly of Ten Thousand Spirits demanded.

One month later,

Jin Ming and Silver Sparrow led those from Nine Sparrows sub-branch who attended the Convention, prepared to leave the Island of Ten Thousand Spirits and head back to the Fierce Sun Mountains.

On the way,

Jin Ming and Silver Sparrow conjured an incarnation of Immortal Power, and then quietly departed.

This trip,

was to use the enemy’s method against them, preparing to ambush Shu Li Immortal Monarch.

This plan was proposed by Jin Ming Taoist, as to him, there was no logic in constantly being attacked without retaliation, nor in endlessly guarding against a thief day after day.

Had it not been for Han Yi; had he come alone, he would have fallen at the hands of Star Dim Immortal Monarch the very day he stepped out of Nine Sparrows Hall after receiving the legacy.

At their level, it wasn’t about good or evil, nor right or wrong, only positions mattered.

Thus, for the ambush of Shu Li Immortal Monarch, Jin Ming felt no burden.

However, Silver Sparrow Immortal Monarch initially hesitated upon hearing this, but in a moment, he gritted his teeth and agreed.

He was prepared to go all out.

However,

Along the way, Jin Ming Taoist reminded, “This time, there’s no need for you to take action.”

“With just the two of us, even in an ambush, we might not be able to detain the other party, and a slight misstep could easily lead to backlash.”

“The person who will take action this time is someone else; you will know when the time comes.”

Jin Ming’s words were not without aim, as he himself had just been promoted to Immortal Monarch less than a thousand years ago, and Silver Sparrow was deeply wounded, left with only a third of his strength.

If the two of them went, even in an ambush, they might not really manage to kill Shu Li Immortal Monarch, but rather easily present an opportunity for him to exploit their flaws and counterattack in one fell swoop.

Therefore,

This time, Jin Ming decided to invite Han Yi to cover the formation, to take action at the critical moment and eliminate the opponent in one strike.

Upon hearing this, Silver Sparrow Immortal Monarch was shocked.

He had always suspected that Jin Ming’s background was not simple. Ten years ago, he had only left for a few breaths when he sensed a tremendous battle unfolding in Nine Sparrows Hall. By the time he turned around and arrived, the battle had already ended, seeing the assassin, presumably Star Dim Immortal Monarch, perish above Nine Sparrows Hall.

The battle had concluded too quickly during this process.

He guessed that if it weren’t for Jin Ming’s great strength, then there must be a powerful Immortal Monarch or even an Immortal Sovereign by Jin Ming’s side.

Of these possibilities, the first one is less likely because the legacy of Nine Sparrows Hall, while not shabby, is only considered middle-tier among Immortal Monarchs. Having had contact, he naturally knew that even if the Nine Sparrows Hall Master were in peak condition, he could not instantly slash a senior Immortal Monarch.

Thus, only the second scenario remained.

Jin Ming had a mysterious and powerful companion, most likely hidden within his Immortal Spirit Realm.

This mysterious powerhouse, most likely a Peak Immortal Monarch in strength, could instantaneously slash Star Dim.
