Chapter 858: Chapter 68 Good Friends [Seeking Monthly Votes!]

Clank—

The two Universe Rings collided, with both the inner and outer circles desperately squeezing the other. However, the Universe Ring of the inner circle seemed to have a more profound spiritual power and more solid radiance, even showing a tendency to expand outward.

Daoist Cang Sheng’s cultivation was already slightly inferior to that of Master Wen Yuan, and now he had lost an arm, which also damaged his spiritual practice. Moreover, as he was simultaneously operating the Universe’s Time Wheel, the cultivation allocated to the Universe Ring had to be reduced by a large margin.

Consequently, he truly couldn’t withstand Master Wen Yuan’s Universe Ring.

But after all, he had the stronger Eastern Sea Time Wheel aiding him; with a turn of the Time Wheel’s glowing screen, the inner Universe Ring was pushed back to its position a moment before, and the outer Universe Ring advanced a bit more.

Master Wen Yuan, even with great effort to counteract, still couldn’t stop the decline.

But a divine artifact is not limited to such simple use. Master Wen Yuan’s Qi Sea surged as he said in a deep voice, "You don’t know how to use the Universe Ring at all!"

He then formed signs with his hands, and the Universe Ring of the inner circle suddenly flipped over, swiftly forming into a spherical light screen that once again separated the interior from the exterior into two realms, and even formed a solid barrier!

Compared to Daoist Cang Sheng’s method of using the Universe Ring to segment the secret realm, this secret realm was far more solid and harder to destroy.

Master Wen Yuan, who controls the Hongmeng Avenue, and with a compatible Universe Ring in hand, suddenly displayed even more formidable power. By contrast, the Universe Ring in Daoist Cang Sheng’s hands seemed more like a counterfeit.

"Even with the Universe Ring, you are no match for me!" Cang Sheng focused his gaze and exerted himself, mobilizing all his vast cultivation.

He previously had to be wary of Baize. Now, seeing a rainbow light flying over—Lu Mountain Old Man had finished recuperating and rushed over upon hearing the commotion—Daoist Cang Sheng immediately directed all his focus onto Master Wen Yuan, concentrating on operating the Eastern Sea Time Wheel.

Boom Clank—

The massive Time Wheel also smashed directly onto the inner circle’s spherical light screen.

The solid light screen began to age rapidly, the barrier between the two realms, which might have taken hundreds of years to damage, started to show mottled cracks in the blink of an eye.

Master Wen Yuan used the Heavenly Rights Token to mobilize Shu Mountain’s Spiritual Aura, repairing wherever was lacking. The Hongmeng and Wu Ya, two great avenues, violently collided in mid-air, inducing a trembling heart in the onlooker.

More and more powerful beings gathered outside the double secret realms, all of whom had received the news and wanted to come to mediate. They couldn’t intervene at this moment. Unless one side’s divine artifact intervened first, nobody could dissolve this double secret realm barrier momentarily.

But considering the issue of the Heaven Devouring Beast, is it really right to decisively come to Shu Mountain’s aid now?

The Regent Leader of the Heavenly King Sect suddenly looked up and said, "Tianshu Pavilion has confirmed what Cang Sheng said."

He had sent a message asking Tianshu Pavilion to verify the truth of Cang Sheng’s words with the ’ignorant’, and now he had received an affirmative response.

The Heaven Devouring Beast was indeed in Chu Liang’s hands!

This explained why the two Demon Kings of the Demonic Clan risked their lives to abduct Chu Liang. But Chu Liang certainly didn’t give them the Heaven Devouring Beast; otherwise, the Demon God of the Ninth Realm would have already returned.

Still, this was an extremely dangerous matter, and what in the world did Chu Liang intend to do with the Heaven Devouring Beast? Could he really be planning to use it to trade with the Demonic Clan, seeking to profit from it?

Only if he were mad would he do that.

"Now, unless Chu Liang appears and executes the Heaven Devouring Beast publicly, the calamity can’t be quelled," the Regent Leader stated resolutely.

In comparison, even the current situation at Shu Mountain seemed trivial. The calamity of the Demon God back then posed not just a crisis for the annihilation of Shu Mountain but for the extinction of the Human Clan!

Shentu Yang looked at the current battle and urgently said, "It seems Shu Mountain can hold on for only a moment longer. The method Shu Mountain has of copying the Universe Ring, we don’t know how long it can last. Where exactly is Chu Liang?"

...

Some time earlier.

In Central State’s Yama Valley, several special guests had arrived.

In a little valley hidden among the jungle, a few bamboo buildings stood, with two or three children sweeping fallen leaves in front of them. A middle-aged man of short stature, sporting a handlebar mustache, relaxed in a rocking chair, wearing a black hat and a green robe, looking at ease.

From a distance, a group of people landed, led by a handsome man with a weathered face, wearing a bamboo hat.

Upon seeing the man, the middle-aged man immediately revealed a happy expression, "Ah, isn’t this my best friend?"

"Haha, my dear brother," Immortal Qi Jing also opened his arms, hugging the middle-aged man and saying, "I’ve missed you to death."

"I’ve missed you too." The middle-aged man patted his shoulder, "It’s just a pity I know you wouldn’t want to see me."

"Why would you think that?" Immortal Qi Jing laughed, "It’s not like I only come when I’m injured. I’m here to introduce you to another good friend."

"That’s wonderful, for your sake I will definitely charge a little less." The middle-aged man led everyone into the house, saying, "Come in quickly for some tea."

On the two sides of his loft hung wooden couplets, on the left read, "Have money, keep life," and on the right, "No money, meet death."

Quite straightforward.

The man before them was Xie Wumming, the renowned Divine Doctor of Central State, famous for charging highly for saving lives. Although his reputation as a divine doctor was loud and clear, not many had sought him for saving lives.

That was because the prices Xie Wumming charged were often exorbitant; if the Sect Leader of a mid-sized Immortal Sect were to be saved by him, they would return home only to become a laborer.

Back to before any cultivation.

Yet there were some whose situations only he could salvage, but he would absolutely not lift a finger without payment, which is why the number of people who died before his eyes outweighed those he saved. Consequently, Xie Wumming had far more enemies than the number of people he’d saved. Even those he saved might turn into enemies afterwards.

Perhaps when one is on the brink of death, they think anything can be negotiated as long as they can live. But once they really come back to life, they might find that being penniless is even worse than death. At that moment, they would hate the person who had taken their money in exchange for their life.

Therefore, Xie Wumming’s whereabouts were always erratic, known only to "good friends."

Immortal Qi Jing pointed to Chen Erniu standing behind him and said, "Today’s main purpose is to reconstruct the physical body for my good friend here. Such technique is something, I believe, only you and the Mad Lady are capable of in this world. You’re the only one who can help us."

"Aren’t you looking in the right place then? That crazy woman, she might be good for killing people, but saving them?" Xie Wumming stroked his mustache with his left hand. "Rest assured, since it’s a friend’s friend, I will definitely use the best materials..."

"We’ve prepared all the materials ourselves," Immortal Qi Jing immediately said, "Collected from all over, they’re absolutely the best, you don’t need to worry."

"Hehe." Xie Wumming chuckled, "You do understand me."

Immortal Qi Jing returned the smile, knowing that if materials were to be sourced from him, the quality wouldn’t just be worse, but also the price would be at least five times higher than market rates.

"However, even if the materials are ready, the price won’t be cheap." Xie Wumming glanced at Chen Erniu, "Can you afford it?"

Chen Erniu turned his head towards Immortal Qi Jing, who then looked at Jiang Yuebai, and Jiang Yuebai looked behind her, where Chu Liang stood.

Chu Liang chuckled, "Please use the best medicine for the Elder Sword Emperor."

Xie Wumming fixed his gaze on the boastful young man, sensing his extraordinary demeanor, and asked, "This is...?"

"He’s my son-in-law," Immortal Qi Jing said. "You might not have heard of Chu Liang’s name, but surely you’ve heard of Red Cotton Peak of Shu Mountain, right?"

"Ah!"

At the sound of a gasp, Xie Wumming had already moved in front of Chu Liang, gripping his hands tightly.

"Although we have never met, I have long regarded Warrior Chu as a kindred spirit," Xie Wumming said with sincere conviction, "Today we should become sworn brothers! You must not refuse."

Immortal Qi Jing: "Eh?"
