Chapter 1138: 1042 True Immortal Great Perfection_2

Jin Qi, Qing Zhi, and a plump woman in a golden dress sat in a green stone pavilion, talking about something.

"Lady Wei, after thorough investigation, we still don’t know who destroyed the Wei family. The Tianyue Sect is highly suspect, and even the Ziyang Sect’s Golden Immortal cultivators acted in full force, leaving hardly a survivor."

Jin Qi said.

The Wei family’s ancestral grounds were wiped out by mysterious forces, leaving no survivors. However, a Golden Immortal cultivator of the Wei family, who was traveling elsewhere, escaped the calamity.

"I’ll settle this debt with the Tianyue Sect sooner or later. Thank you so much for sheltering the Wei family clansmen."

The woman in the golden dress said gratefully.

Wei Laiyue, Golden Immortal early stage.

The Golden Pig Tribe sheltered some Wei family cultivators, preserving a portion of their bloodline.

"Lady Wei, you’re too courteous. It was just a small effort. However, the Tianyue Sect’s power is immense, beyond what we can contend with. Lady Wei, it’s best not to act impulsively—revenge should wait until you are strong enough."

Qing Zhi advised.

"Thank you for your reminder, Lady Qing. I know my limits and won’t act rashly. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave."

Wei Laiyue rose to bid farewell and left.

"Sheltering the Wei family disciples was the right choice. In the future, if our Golden Pig Tribe clashes with the Ziyang Sect again, Lady Wei can provide support."

Jin Qi said with some relief.

Qing Zhi nodded: "In the last large-scale battle, numerous factions were annihilated. Many survivors of these factions might come in handy during future conflicts."

Myriad Beasts Sect, Myriad Beasts Peak. Shen Long, Shen Yuqing, and Shen Yuhong were sitting in the stone pavilion, chatting leisurely.

Shen Yuqing and Shen Yuhong had already ascended to the Mahayana Realm, and each possessed multiple spirit beasts and birds with powerful bloodlines.

"Once I ascend to the True Immortal Realm, I too want to visit the Ancient Cloud Continent."

Shen Yuqing said with a look of yearning.

"The Ancient Cloud Continent has many experts. Cultivate until you reach the True Immortal Realm first."

Shen Long said gently.

Shen Chan entered, her expression serious, and reported: "Master, Master Nephew Li and the others discovered a True Immortal cultivator’s Zouhua Cave, but the restrictions are too strong for them to open it. They’ve returned to report."

"A True Immortal cultivator’s Zouhua Cave? Didn’t they send True Immortal cultivators to break it open?"

Shen Long asked casually.

"Three True Immortal cultivators attempted it together, but they failed to break through the formation. They reported back because it’s an ancient cultivator’s cave."

Shen Chan took out a golden jade slip and handed it to Shen Long.

Shen Long swept it with his divine sense, his face revealing a pondering expression.

"It’s actually on Ziyang Sect’s territory!"

Shen Long said, his interest piqued.

After thinking for a moment, he said: "Let’s take a trip. Hopefully, it’s authentic."

Shen Chan summoned a golden flying boat, and Shen Long stepped aboard, followed closely by Shen Chan.

Shen Chan performed a spell, and the golden flying boat ascended into the sky, departing from Myriad Beasts Island.

Seven days later, the golden flying boat appeared over a vibrant blue sea, where ocean winds whipped fiercely.

Shen Chan’s eyes flashed with dazzling golden light as she sent a transmission: "Master, there’s an ambush on the island—remnants of the Qian Family. I’m not sure if there are Golden Immortal cultivators present."

If the Qian Family had Golden Immortal cultivators, they would have directly attacked Myriad Beasts Island. Nevertheless, Shen Long prudently released Shen Fu.

Shen Fu had secluded himself within the Ninth Layer of the Myriad Beasts Tower for many years, already reaching the late stage of the True Immortal Realm.

"Master, there are eight True Immortal cultivators on the island, but no Golden Immortals."

Shen Fu reported truthfully.

The island had a First Rank Immortal Formation that failed to conceal the fluctuations of divine souls. The Qian Family cultivators likely hadn’t anticipated Shen Fu’s ability to sense the strength of living souls and thus deduce their cultivation.

"Qian Family remnants, huh? Wipe them out."

Shen Long said coldly, shaking his sleeves as Shen Mei, Shen Jiu, and others flew out from the Spirit Beast Bracelet.

"Exterminate the cultivators on the island."

Shen Long ordered.

Shen Jiu and the others complied. Their palms radiated spiritual light as they struck toward the void, manifesting several giant palms. The palms fused into one, transforming into a colossal Sky-Supporting Giant Palm, which slammed toward the island.

With deafening rumbling sounds, the Sky-Supporting Giant Palm flattened dozens of peaks, causing the desolate island to tremble violently, forming thick, deep fissures while dust clouds filled the skies.

Eight escape lights shot out of the dust cloud: six men and two women. The most powerful among them was a tall golden-robed youth who possessed True Immortal Great Perfection cultivation.

"Taoist Friend Xu, that’s the Sect Leader of the Myriad Beasts Sect. They wiped out both our Qian Family and the Mysterious Spirit Sect. Let’s strike together and kill him."

A plump woman in a golden dress urged.

"Kill them! Make it quick."

Shen Long’s tone was icy.

"Yes, Master."

Shen Jiu and the others responded in unison and launched another attack.

A Sky-Supporting Giant Palm rushed toward the eight golden-robed youths. Wherever the palm passed, thick fissures appeared in the void, seemingly collapsing the heavens and earth. The sea divided, sending two towering waves surging upward.

"Combined Attack Technique! Evade quickly."

The golden-robed youth frowned and commanded.

Shen Mei mocked: "Why don’t you surrender obediently and give up resisting?"

She had cultivated in the Myriad Beasts Tower to the late stage of the True Immortal Realm, rendering even those with True Immortal Great Perfection vulnerable—except for those who mastered Supreme Laws.

Upon hearing her words, the eight True Immortal cultivators became dazed and fell into an illusion.

The Sky-Supporting Giant Palm struck them, their bodies exploded into blood mist, and their Nascent Souls escaped only to be enveloped by a blue radiance. Shen Jiu swallowed them whole.

The eight True Immortal cultivators perished!

Ordinary True Immortal cultivators didn’t require Shen Long’s intervention; Shen Jiu, Shen Mei, and the others sufficed.

"Master, they set a trap to assassinate you and Madam. They overestimated themselves."

Shen Jiu reported.

"Are there leads on other remnants?"

Shen Long asked.

"Yes, they are at the marketplace under Heavenly Ghost Sect’s control. Taking them out won’t be easy."

Shen Jiu answered frankly.

"Forget it then; let’s go back."

Shen Long said.

Shen Jiu collected items from the enemies’ corpses and handed them to Shen Long. They returned to the golden flying boat.

Shen Chan performed a spell, and the golden flying boat flew back on its previous course, disappearing into the horizon.

Upon returning to Myriad Beasts Island, they learned that Ye Qingli had arrived.

Shen Long went to the reception hall and saw Ye Qingli chatting with Shen Lang.

"Taoist Friend Shen, you’ve ascended to True Immortal Great Perfection! Congratulations!"

Ye Qingli said in celebration.

"I’ve consumed a substantial amount of Immortal Pills that enhance Immortal Yuan Power, hence my rapid progress. By the way, Taoist Friend Ye, your visit this time—is it to summon me?"

Shen Long asked curiously.

"Not really. Here’s the matter: Xuan Yu Immortal Sovereign fled to Nine Stars Island. She has something very important, and I’d like your assistance. If we succeed, there will be generous rewards."

Ye Qingli explained slowly.

"Xuan Yu Immortal Sovereign! What’s her background? And what exactly are you seeking to reclaim?"

Shen Long probed.

"She’s a Loose Immortal, bought off by the Heavenly Ghost Sect. She carries critical intelligence, and it’s best to capture her Nascent Soul. This matter is of great importance to me, so after much deliberation, I decided to seek your help."

Ye Qingli responded truthfully, presenting a green scroll to Shen Long.

Shen Long opened the scroll to reveal the image of a plump woman in a white dress.

"You’re certain she fled to Nine Stars Island and won’t leave?"

Shen Long asked skeptically.

"I personally pursued her and witnessed her entering Nine Stars Island. The place is riddled with restrictions; it won’t be easy for her to leave. I worry she might join forces with disciples of the Heavenly Ghost Sect—that’s why I’m asking for your intervention."

Ye Qingli said solemnly.

Shen Long nodded in understanding and replied: "A minor task. I’ll personally make the trip and see if we can find Xuan Yu Immortal Sovereign."

"Thank you, Taoist Friend Shen."

Ye Qingli expressed his gratitude.

After chatting briefly, Ye Qingli departed, and Shen Long summoned Shen Lang, giving him a few instructions before leaving Myriad Beasts Island with Shen Chan for Nine Stars Island.

Heavenly Moon Island, Profound Moon Garden.

Zhao Yang, Xu Hao, and Han Lei sat in a green stone pavilion, discussing something.

"From the intelligence we currently possess, the Heavenly Ghost Sect completely trusts that traitor. We can proceed to the next step. I want the Heavenly Ghost Sect to suffer heavily."

Zhao Yang said gravely.

"Understood, Sect Leader Senior Brother. I’ve already given the orders; everything will proceed according to our plan."

Xu Hao affirmed.

"Don’t rush. Let them fall step by step into the traps we’ve meticulously set up."

Zhao Yang instructed.

Xu Hao nodded, complying.
