Chapter 1521: Chapter 1480: Agree to Form an Alliance

"Keep a... memento, perhaps?"

The Tower Spirit chuckled wryly and sighed, before concentrating on guiding the altar.

"Lu Chuan, it’s about to begin."

The Little Tower trembled, and countless streams of Spiritual Power erupted, infusing the altar. In moments, the altar seemed to come alive, and Lu Chuan faintly heard the sound of a heartbeat.

The heartbeat grew stronger, until finally, a portal suddenly appeared, like a gaping mouth, and swallowed Lu Chuan in an instant!

"Lu Chuan, be careful!"

The Tower Spirit’s warning rang in his ears. Lu Chuan was baffled, but before he could speak, he experienced a dizzying whirlwind and the sensation of weightlessness spread throughout his body!

Looking around, there was nothing but whiteness, and Lu Chuan suddenly realized he was plummeting from the cloud-filled sky!

Even more troublesome, Lu Chuan was startled to find he couldn’t harness his Spiritual Power!

At this height, if he fell directly, it would be fatal!

"Tower Spirit, I can’t use my Spiritual Power!"

"Don’t panic, your body is just adapting. You’ll recover soon!"

Watching the ground rapidly approach, Lu Chuan felt a surge of fear.

"How long will the adaptation take?"

"...I don’t know."

"You!"

Boom!

After a thunderous crash that shook the mountain, the ground was smashed into a deep crater by Lu Chuan. At the bottom of the pit, Lu Chuan remained silent for a long time before he finally took a deep breath, struggled to sit up, and gasped for air.

"Almost... almost lost my life!"

Fortunately, just before Lu Chuan landed, he managed to summon his Spiritual Power to shield himself, avoiding a disastrous impact. Struggling out of the crater, he looked around and found himself on the peak of a desolate mountain.

"So, is this the world you created? It’s incredibly vast!"

Wherever he looked, the horizon stretched endlessly!

"Ah! I can feel it!"

Yun Yan suddenly spoke, emerging from Lu Chuan’s body, and pointed excitedly in front of him: "The aura of my physical form is coming from that direction!"

"Don’t be hasty, it’s dangerous here."

"Dangerous? What’s the danger?"

The Tower Spirit explained, "In the past, to protect the physical form stored here, I commanded a certain branch of the Demon Tribe to guard it for generations. Their strongest member used to possess the cultivation of the Union Realm. Today, I cannot determine how far they’ve advanced.

Moreover, after I abandoned my physical form, the seal on that branch of the Demon Tribe vanished, so whether they are friend or foe is still uncertain."

Upon hearing this, Yun Yan fell silent.

Though the Tower Spirit’s intentions were good, it seemed excessive to leave an entire Demon Tribe here.

"But what should I do! My physical form is within reach, I can’t just give up!"

"Don’t worry, I know their weaknesses. As long as we don’t encounter a Great Demon of the Integration Realm, we still have a chance."

...

At this moment, in Penglai Immortal Domain.

Kong Yuanliang sat solemnly in the grand hall. Below him, cultivators from the Penglai Immortal Sect gathered, filling the entire Teaching Peak.

Everyone was puzzled. Since the Sect Master returned, he suddenly summoned everyone, leaving them unsure of the purpose.

As one of the few insiders, Mu Changchen sighed, not optimistic about the situation.

"Elder Mu, is everyone here?"

"I assume everyone is present. I’ve sent stewards from each peak to count the numbers."

"No need. I’ve given ample time, and if anyone still doesn’t arrive, consider them voluntarily withdrawing from the Penglai Immortal Sect, return their Bright Lamps, and let them leave."

Saying this, Kong Yuanliang stood with a serious expression and said, "Compared to the crisis facing our Penglai Immortal Domain today, everyone here is well aware. People from the Small World are attempting to occupy Earth, sending strong emissaries to infiltrate internally and attack externally, threatening Penglai Immortal Domain.

Thanks to everyone’s united efforts, the Penglai Immortal Sect and the entire Immortal Domain survived the danger. I extend my gratitude to all of you."

As the words fell, Kong Yuanliang actually bowed deeply to everyone present, leaving them all astonished and causing them to exclaim.

"Sect Master, your words are too weighty! The Immortal Sect and Immortal Domain are our places of residence; protecting the Immortal Domain is our duty. We cannot accept such a significant gesture from the Sect Master."

"At least, when faced with temptation, you all chose to remain steadfast, unlike those who chose betrayal, paying the price of their lives. Now, the choice is in our hands.

Everyone must be curious why I gathered everyone today. As the Sect Master of Penglai Immortal Sect, I wish to announce something and solicit your opinions."

Kong Yuanliang’s voice echoed across the Teaching Peak. Outside the hall, ordinary disciples looked at each other, perplexed.

"Sect Master, please speak freely. We will fully support your decision!"

"I wish it were truly so."

Kong Yuanliang smiled wryly, paused for a moment, and then spoke clearly, his voice resonating like a great bell.

"After much consideration, I’ve decided to agree with Lu Chuan’s proposal to form an alliance with the secular world. I’d like to know your opinions."

As soon as these words were spoken, the Teaching Peak fell silent, even the insects in the woods stopped chirping!

After ten breaths of silence, the Teaching Peak abruptly erupted.

"Sect Master, this is impossible! How could Penglai Immortal Domain ally with the secular world!"

"People from the secular world despise us deeply. Who knows if they will agree to ally while secretly plotting against us!"

"No! Absolutely not!"

Amidst heated discussions, nine out of ten people refused. Although Kong Yuanliang expected this situation, he still felt a profound sense of helplessness when confronted.

Just as those in the secular world loathe Penglai Immortal Domain, the Immortal Domain’s perception of the secular world is similarly unfavorable. Years of resentment have positioned them as adversaries, at odds with each other.

"Quiet... let’s all calm down!"

Mu Changchen attempted to silence the crowd, but unfortunately, no one paid attention to his voice. Kong Yuanliang was left with no choice but to exert pressure, releasing the aura of Half-step Integration Realm, which swept through the Teaching Peak like a wave, silencing the clamoring crowd!

"Everyone, calm down and listen to my reasons; it’s never too late to decide! With formidable enemies before us, neither the Immortal Domain nor the secular world can face the threat from the Small World alone. At this moment, only alliance is the best choice. The principle of ’lips parted, teeth cold’ is clear enough; don’t you all understand?"
