Chapter 510: 418 Invitation from the Qingmei Realm_1

"Commissioned by the major forces of the Qingmei Realm to come and deal with the Tianyuan Tribe?"

Wang Kun was completely bewildered.

Why on earth would the Qingmei Realm initiate an inter-realm war without any apparent reason?

"Taoist Friend Xu, why has the Qingmei Realm suddenly decided to target the Tianyuan Tribe? Why drag our Qianyang Realm into this? Unless you clarify, I’m afraid I can’t help you."

Wang Kun said.

"I come from the Seven Stars Sect of the Qingmei Realm, following the orders of our Big Dipper Pavilion in the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot to deal with the Tianyuan Tribe. Both the Qingmei and Qianyang Realms are dominated by the Human Clan, whereas the Tianyuan Realm is dominated by the Tianyuan Tribe. The Tianyuan Tribe once invaded your Qianyang Realm. It is reasonable for us to join forces against them. Simply put, the strength of the Tianyuan Tribe is not weak; our Qingmei Realm alone cannot bring them down."

Xu Qingyun slowly said.

"Orders from the Big Dipper Pavilion in the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot?"

Wang Kun’s brow furrowed.

"Correct, this is a modest gift prepared by our Qingmei Realm. Please do not disdain it, Taoist Friend Wang. If we can eliminate the Tianyuan Tribe of the Tianyuan Realm, the realm can be managed by both our realms."

Xu Qingyun raised his right hand, and a green Storage Bracelet flew out of his hand toward Wang Kun.

Wang Kun caught the green Storage Bracelet. After a sweep of his Divine Sense, a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes. There was a set of Spiritual Treasure and a batch of Cultivation Resources.

"I cannot decide on this matter alone; I have to consult with the other daoists. Taoist Friend Xu, why don’t you stay on Heavenly Beast Island for now? I will send someone to contact the others and ask for their opinions."

Wang Kun said politely.

"Then, I shall impose and stay on Heavenly Beast Island. Taoist Friend Wang, feel free to invite the other daoists to come and discuss with me."

Xu Qingyun agreed.

"Taoist Friend Xu, the inter-realm passageway you used to get here?"

Wang Kun asked, curious.

"It’s temporarily closed. Only I know the location, and only I can pass through. Without me to lead the way, others might cause unnecessary misunderstandings,"

Xu Qingyun said with profound meaning.

Wealth tempts the heart. Having come alone to the Qianyang Realm, it was inevitable that Soul Transformation Cultivators might have designs on his life.

"Alright, Wang He, take Taoist Friend Xu down to rest and arrange a decent cave dwelling for him."

Wang Kun instructed.

Wang He acknowledged the order and left to carry it out.

······

On a desolate island shrouded in a white mist, a golden Escape Light came from afar and stopped with a flicker.

The Escape Light dissipated, revealing a tall, thin elder in golden robes.

"Wu Quan, why have you come? Have you found what I wanted?"

An authoritative male voice emanated from within the white mist.

"Senior Huangfu, the junior has gathered some of the items you wanted."

Wu Quan spoke respectfully, taking out a green Storage Bag.

A strong suction emerged, and the green Storage Bag flew into the white mist.

"Not bad, they indeed are what I was looking for. This is your reward. As long as you do a good job, I will not treat you poorly. But if you betray me, you know what will happen."

An authoritative male voice came from the desolate island.

No sooner had the words finished than a blue Storage Bag flew out from the white mist and landed in Wu Quan’s hand.

"I thank Senior Huangfu. I will never betray the senior. I swear loyalty unto death."

Wu Quan earnestly pledged his loyalty.

"You didn’t bring anyone else with you, did you?"

The authoritative male voice sounded again.

"No, without your orders, the junior would not dare to act rashly."

Wu Quan said respectfully.

"So you’re telling me this person came on their own, thinking they could hide right under my nose with their invisible Spiritual Treasure? They’re asking for death."

The male voice was ice-cold.

As soon as the words were spoken, ripples echoed in the void. A pitch-black claw, dark as ink, appeared and slapped towards a certain point in space.

A flash of green light, and a slender woman in a green dress appeared, her expression frantic.

She hurriedly sacrificed a green shield, blocking the black claw.

A flash of black light, and a vast black pagoda emerged above her head.

Cries of ghosts and howls of wolves sounded as the black pagoda emitted a black auspicious light, enveloping the woman in green, pulling her into the pagoda.

The black pagoda swiftly shrank and turned into a black Escape Light, disappearing into the white mist.

"Senior Huangfu, I truly do not know this person. I was unaware that she was following behind. Please discern the truth,"

Wu Quan said nervously, sweating profusely.

"If I had any suspicions about you, I would have taken action already. Be more careful next time and don’t let yourself get targeted. There’s nothing else; you may leave,"

the man instructed.

Wu Quan let out a long sigh of relief, bowed respectfully, and left the place.

Beneath the white misty sea was a deserted island, containing a secret underground cave.

Huangfu Lou stood in an open area, holding in his hands a Nascent Soul that bore a striking resemblance to the lady in the green dress, with several ghostly shadows behind him.

"Investigating the disappearance of high-level cultivators, fifth-stage early phase Swallowing Sea Whale! They almost traced it back to me,"

Huangfu Lou muttered to himself, frowning slightly.

Taishi Jin still hadn’t recovered his cultivation, after all, he was a remnant soul that had taken possession of a body to cultivate anew; it wasn’t so quick for him to return to the cultivation of the Divinity Transformation Stage.

...

In the Donghua Cultivation Realm, at the Spirit Control Sect.

Golden Roc Peak, inside a secret chamber.

Shen Long was sitting cross-legged on a red cushion, his eyes tightly closed, enveloped in a layer of red aurora.

After a while, a Sound Transmission Talisman flew in, hovering in front of Shen Long.

Shen Long quickly ended his meditation and opened his eyes.

He grabbed the Sound Transmission Talisman and brought his fingers together; the talisman self-ignited, and Lin Sen’s voice emerged: "Uncle Shen, Senior Ye from Medicine King Valley has come to visit, saying she has urgent matters to discuss with you."

"Ye Hongyao!"

Shen Long got up and walked out.

Lin Sen was standing at the door, his expression respectful.

"Where is Fairy Ye?"

Shen Long inquired.

"The reception hall!"

Lin Sen replied truthfully.

Shen Long nodded, transformed into a beam of Escape Light, and left Golden Roc Peak to arrive at the reception hall, where he met Ye Hongyao.

"Fairy Ye, it’s been a long time,"

Shen Long greeted.

Ye Hongyao smiled and nodded, taking out a green porcelain bottle and saying, "I’ve collected a bottle of fourth-stage Flood Dragon Essence Blood. How’s your recovery going?"

"Fourth-stage Flood Dragon Essence Blood? I don’t have any major problems now,"

Shen Long said, showing a joyful expression on his face.

He was not lacking fourth-stage Flood Dragon Essence Blood, he was just pretending to be very happy.

"It’s good that you’re fine. What will you exchange for the fourth-stage Flood Dragon Essence Blood?"

Ye Hongyao inquired.

Shen Long took out a golden jade box and handed it to Ye Hongyao.

Ye Hongyao opened it and glanced inside. There was a silver Demon Core inside, and she nodded.

"By the way, Fairy Ye, is there any news of those two fellow Daoists?"

Shen Long asked.

"No, maybe they’ve encountered an accident. Don’t you know them?"

Ye Hongyao asked curiously.

"I’ve never met them, but they know me. They shouldn’t have encountered any accidents, right? Could they have run into other fourth-stage Monster Beasts?"

Shen Long speculated.

"That I don’t know. Anyway, there has been no word from them to this day."

Ye Hongyao said indifferently.

"Fairy Ye, did you come all this way to the Spirit Control Sect just to trade the fourth-stage Flood Dragon Essence Blood with me?"

Shen Long asked, puzzled.

"Not just for that. I also wanted to see how well you’ve recovered. It seems you’ve recovered quite well. You’re quite fortunate, too. Recently, an eruption of a major Beast Tide took place, and more than eighty Nascent Soul Cultivators perished, including two in the late stage of Nascent Soul."

Ye Hongyao said, seeming somewhat relieved.

Shen Long nodded and said, "Yes, if I hadn’t encountered those two comrades, I might have also been lost."

"Oh, by the way, the Valley Master has ascended to the Divinity Transformation Stage and is holding an Ascension Ceremony. If you have time, come to Medicine King Valley for a cup of water wine!"

Ye Hongyao said.

Shen Long was momentarily taken aback, but quickly responded and agreed to come.

After chatting idly for a while, Ye Hongyao took her leave.
