Chapter 1239: Chapter 1093: The Mission

"Huh?"

Within the three thousand miles of Purple Qi, inside the Eight Treasures Fragrant Carriage.

Suddenly, a soft exclamation was heard.

"Master?"

The Qiu Dragon Monarch immediately halted and asked, "Is the ride too bumpy, making it uncomfortable for the master?"

"It’s not that, continue the journey."

Moments later, Fang Xi’s voice came from within the Eight Treasures Fragrant Carriage, and the vast expanse of Purple Qi continued to advance.

This carriage, as the vehicle of a Prime Taoist Master, naturally epitomized luxury. Inside, it contained a refined Dragon Palace, where many Pearl Girls and Bell Girls were hidden, for his pleasure.

Outside the Dragon Palace lay an area of eighty thousand miles of ocean, filled with many magnificent spectacles.

Fang Xi had already browsed through them all, but now he waved for the Mussel Girls to withdraw, sitting cross-legged on a cloud bed: "Little immortal has finally become an Immortal..."

Thinking of the Fang Immortal Taoist Master from his past life, he couldn’t help but fall silent.

"Still, ascending in the True Immortal Realm with Kuyong Skills, and even within the Beichen Immortal Domain, that does take audacity!"

"After all, he still hasn’t learned my steadiness."

Fang Xi sighed.

Naturally, he sensed all of this through the Void Coordinates of the Treasures of All Heavens.

Compared with the Time and Space Taoist Master, the Treasures of All Heavens could tear through any part of the Void, and not just in the True Immortal Realm. Its might, without a doubt, was even more formidable.

Therefore, he could support Fang Xian at any time, without any concern for his disciple’s safety.

’Still, this disciple needs to undergo more trials to appreciate the preciousness of survival on the edge...’

’The Lord Yin Yang of the Heavenly Palace wouldn’t bother with a little ant, it was most likely that Zi Yin Daozi at the start, presumably Fang Xian can hold out for a while...’

The Fang Immortal Taoist Master should have ample experience in avoiding assassinations and escaping dangers at the limit.

Fang Xi pondered for a moment, paying a bit of attention, then no longer minded it.

Instead, he turned his gaze westward, with a trace of contemplation: "A Wisdom King of this world? It’s about time to repay that arrow from the ’Supreme Heavenly Sovereign’s True Demon Art of Controlling All Spirits’..."

With the Qiu Dragon Monarch’s stride, it would not take long to enter the range of the Beichen Immortal Domain.

Within the passage of Divine Sand of the vast sea.

Whether traveling Immortals or lurking dangers, upon seeing the formidable Purple Qi approaching, they bowed their heads and dared not entertain any thoughts.

"Could it be a Prime Taoist Master?"

One after another, immensely powerful immortals and sand beasts looked at the Purple Qi with caution, trying their best to conceal their own presence, not daring to reveal the slightest, for fear of attracting that fearsome Prime Taoist Master’s notice.

Only a few immortals who had seen the Qiu Dragon Monarch remembered that Purple Jade Qiu Dragon pulling the carriage, disbelief in their eyes at first, then their complexions turned pale: "Another one... heading to the Beichen Immortal Domain?"

...

Ten Thousand Coral Island.

The Mountain Pearl incarnation was still of Immortal’s cultivation, but finding joy in its own way.

At this moment, with a thought, he activated the mark of the ’Sun Moon Divine Breath Array’ and entered the virtual Sun Moon Divine Mountain.

Last time, the Thousand Swords Old Man released a bounty as a formal disciple, causing quite a stir within the Sun Moon Divine Mountain.

But after so much time had passed with no one claiming the reward, the excitement had long since faded.

The Thousand Monument Mountain had now returned to its occasional tranquility.

Fang Xi came to a white jade peak on his own.

This peak was outside the Three Thousand Sword Steles, which Fang Xi still often observed and pondered...and had gained much from.

However, this particular white jade peak was different.

One side of the mountain had been sheared off at some point, revealing a cliff face smooth as a mirror.

On this cliff, golden seal script characters emerged one after another, forming lines of text.

At the very top, naturally, was the task of finding ’Lord Reincarnation’.

Below it, there were columns of information:

[The Triple Flower Sect of the Myriad Flowers Immortal Domain seeks to hire a high-tier Spirit Plant Immortal, with negotiable remuneration...]

[Bounty for the ’Thousand-Faced Ghost Leader’s’ eyeball, willing to exchange for ten bottles of ’Taoist Cultivation Pills’...]

[Assassinate the ’City Lord Yuping’ of the Nine Lives Immortal Domain, the successful person will receive a volume of the ’Star River Sword Jue’...]

...

Line by line, they were all various bounties and tasks.

This was a mission wall set up by the Array Spirit following the example set by the Thousand Swords Old Man’s task release.

As the immortals discovered the convenience of this place, which could nearly cover real-time information across the entire True Immortal Realm, they directly utilized it for business.

The Array Spirit tacitly approved and took a cut from the transactions...

By now, it was showing early signs of commercial prosperity.

Fang Xi arrived, casually scanned the missions, and prepared to continue pondering the sword steles.

Although his ’A Sword Creates the Universe’ was perhaps superior to the Thousand Swords Old Man’s ’One Sword Creates the Universe’, the old man’s lack of the Reincarnation Law had made it challenging for ’One Sword Creates the Universe’ to reach ultimate mastery. However, his insights into other laws were profound.

Now these insights were being absorbed by Fang Xi to enhance his own foundation.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, his Divine Consciousness swept across and he saw a line of golden seal script.

"Rescue Mission—Immortal Luofu in Beichen Immortal Domain is trapped by the ’Four Mystic Arhats Great Array’. If the rescue is successful, the Luo Family is willing to offer..."

"Immortal Luofu... is actually trapped?"

Fang Xi was somewhat surprised. As he focused his Divine Thought into that line of golden seal script, more information emerged immediately.

’The Four Mystic Arhats Great Array, set up by four ’Great Arhats’, is a top-grade ninth-tier Immortal Array from the Brahman Sect capable of trapping Taoist sons... Has Luofu provoked someone from the Brahman Sect?’

’If trapped in the array for too long, one might not be in mortal danger, but there’s the possibility of being converted into a female Bodhisattva...’

"Why would she go to the Beichen Immortal Domain, and to provoke the Brahman Sect at that?"

He was a bit puzzled, but after thinking it through carefully, he understood.

It was all the doing of Thousand Swords Old Man!

That old man offered such a generous bounty, naturally there would be many Immortals eager to claim it.

To track down Lord Reincarnation, one naturally had to start from Beichen Immortal Domain!

Encountering a Truly Enlightened Immortal from the Brahman Sect and then experiencing conflict seemed inevitable.

’Although the Luo Family is a Prime Taoist Master’s clan, in the current Beichen Immortal Domain, they are truly not enough... The Brahman Sect has profound depths, and nearby ’The Free-Wisdom King Buddha in the World’ is actually a Prime Taoist Master! And within the Brahman Sect, there are several ancient ’Buddhas’ whose Cultivation is said to be of Taoist Master level! Even if they converted Luofu, the Luo Family would probably be helpless!’

’Moreover, even if they wanted to pour everything into a rescue for this promising descendant of a Prime Taoist Master, with the vastness of the True Immortal Realm, it would still be too late to suffice...’

Fang Xi, with wisdom that penetrated deeply, and a keen understanding of many secrets, quickly thought through the cause and effect.

At this time, however, he stroked his chin and sighed in his heart, "I did not expect that I would have to return to the Earth Immortal Realm, Avatar of the Universe Emperor rush to Beichen Immortal Domain... Now even this last incarnation, which is still experiencing the Cycle of Reincarnation and comprehending the Great Path of All Heavens Reincarnation, has to make a move..."

The Avatar of the Universe Emperor, of course, could use the Treasures of All Heavens to arrive at the Beichen Immortal Domain in an instant, but there was no urgency, so there was no need to reveal this secret to Qiu Dragon Monarch.

After all, riding on their back would only take a few days.

"Luofu..."

Thinking of that woman dressed in white, superior to snow, yet with somewhat silly eyes, Fang Xi laughed self-deprecatingly, "It’s indeed... time to repay the cause and effect."

With a flick of his finger, an imprint suddenly appeared beneath that line of golden seal script and the mission.

"I tell you, ever since Immortal Luofu emerged from her breakthrough amidst hidden dangers and forgetfulness of meditation, she truly does not recognize kin, causing much embarrassment to numerous Sirs and having very poor relations with others. Surely no one will go to her rescue this time... Huh?"

Know-it-All was just boasting to one or two Immortal friends, when he saw the mission list change, and the task posted by the Luo Family had already been accepted!

"Alas... How unwise of this Sir?"

He rolled his eyes and then shook his head, "Luofu is a being capable of the fourth step of Combined Daoist and at the level of Zhendao Daozi, the dangers that could trap her... Ordinary Daozi cannot deal with it, only if a Prime Taoist Master takes action is there a sure chance..."

...

As for the subsequent criticisms, Fang Xi simply did not bother to pay attention.

He only thought of the first time he came to the Sun Moon Divine Breath Array when Luofu had given him a couple of pointers.

Even though she was a bit silly at the time, she did in fact help him.

Now that he had the strength, he naturally wanted to return the favor.

’What is this Arhat Great Array, I can break it by myself...’

’If it’s beyond my Strength, then so be it... After all, I’m just an incarnation with limited strength.’

Mountain pearl incarnation snickered, then disappeared from Ten Thousand Coral Island with a flash of silver light.

...

Beichen Immortal Domain.

This place could be considered Fang Xi’s base of operations, with countless Void Coordinates marked.

Now that he had obtained more detailed information about the mission and the location where Luofu was trapped, Fang Xi naturally chose the closest coordinate point to teleport to.

Hum!

Amidst the flickering of silver light, a young man in a yellow robe appeared in the Beichen Immortal Domain.

He discerned the direction and immediately, Sword Light flashed, his whole being like a giant earthy yellow sword, tearing through the heavens towards a certain location.

...

In an unnamed mountain range.

Golden Sanskrit words soared to the skies, forming a light barrier.

In the core of the golden light barrier, sat a woman Sword Immortal in white.

Her features were picturesque, her aura ethereal and fleeting, it was indeed Luofu!

Luofu sat cross-legged, with a long sword in a snowy white scabbard resting on her knees, her expression unchanging like ancient ice: "Brahman Sect..."

"Amitabha Buddha..."

In each corner of the golden Sanskrit Great Array sat a Brahman Sect’s Great Arhat who had cultivated an Arhat Golden Body.

The leading one, an old Arhat with white eyebrows, had an aged face with two long white eyebrows drooping down, exuding an air of benevolence and sympathy for the world: "Noble Yipin, you have innocently killed three hundred and seventeen of our Buddhist sons; you’ve incurred a killing karma. Please join our Brahman Sect, become a female Bodhisattva... to complete the cycle of cause and effect, and to avoid further killing, which harms the harmony of heaven..."

Sword Immortals are beings of impulse and retribution, ones who draw their swords at the slightest disagreement.

Sword Immortals who Cultivate the Ruthless Sword Path are even more extreme.

Luofu, having traversed the True Immortal Realm, naturally had killed many.

This conflict with the Brahman Sect was both accidental and inevitable.

The old Arhat with white eyebrows had a face full of compassion, yet in his heart, he was pleased: ’This woman has a profound foundation; should she convert to Buddhism, the Free-Wisdom King Buddha in the World will surely be overjoyed...’

Backed by a Prime Taoist Master, they naturally wouldn’t consider a distant Daoist Master’s clan of any consequence...
