Chapter 868: Chapter 748: Hero

Star Immortal Mansion Secret Realm.

Fang Xi’s eyes were cold and piercing as he transformed into a Tri-Horned Yuan Rhinoceros, charging unimpeded along his path.

"This Immortal Mansion is riddled with prohibitions everywhere... indeed, the Tri-Horned Yuan Rhinoceros is somewhat more useful."

Suddenly, the three horns on the head of the Tri-Horned Yuan Rhinoceros flashed wildly with light, and then he broke through a layer of fog prohibition.

Fang Xi looked around and couldn’t help but take a deep breath of the fresh air filled with the scent of grass and wood.

Before his eyes lay a Spiritual Medicine Garden!

Although many spirit medicines had withered due to neglect, some rare flowers and exotic herbs were still clinging to life.

Without any hesitation, he transformed back into his human form, spread his arms, and with a swift motion.

Patches of flowers, along with the spirit land, flew into his storage bag.

"That counts as a modest harvest."

Fang Xi nodded slightly, fairly satisfied with his progress for the day.

He employed the Turtle Breath Skills, concealing his own aura so well that even Integration cultivators might not detect him.

And within the Star Immortal Mansion, the highest level was but Returning to Emptiness cultivators; naturally, no one would notice anything amiss.

Fang Xi made his way back to the Dragon Pattern Wall and, touching the smooth white jade surface, he suddenly smiled faintly.

A blue silhouette materialized out of thin air, revealing Fang Xi’s true self!

He brought his hands together, and an Ancient Bronze Mirror surfaced, followed by a sky filled with silver light, enveloping the entire Dragon Pattern Wall.

He boldly used the Void Force of the Treasures of All Heavens to attempt the relocation of this piece of jade wall.

Boom!

The surface of the age-old Dragon Pattern Wall suddenly erupted in silver radiance, then disappeared without a trace.

In the midst of the Earth Immortal Spiritual Realm, a desolate wilderness appeared.

Accompanied by a booming sound, a wall of jade crashed down, embedding itself deep into the layers of soil.

"It’s been moved."

Fang Xi smiled faintly, retracted his external incarnation, and in an instant, he vanished, returning to Moon Invitation Immortal City.

Atop Lake Heart Island, the Wang Family Ancestor sat leisurely in a lounge chair, holding prayer beads and beginning to brew tea, thoroughly enjoying the moment.

He hadn’t been at ease for long when suddenly, urgent bell tones echoed in his ears!

"Hmm?"

Fang Xi’s expression changed, and he squinted his eyes, "Isn’t that the ’Moon Soul Bell’ that only resounds when the Immortal City is facing a life-or-death crisis?"

"Could it be that as soon as I got back, something’s gone awry?"

He knew well that this was an impossibility.

With a touch of irritation, Fang Xi arrived at Mingyue Palace and immediately saw the elder in golden robes along with Master Dongqiuzi.

One after another, Returning to Emptiness monks arrived, all of them wearing stern expressions.

"Fellow cultivators..."

As soon as the Returning to Emptiness cultivators had all assembled, the Grand Elder didn’t beat around the bush and got straight to the point, "recently, the Monster Clan, with the aid of a Treasure of Void, is preparing to open a gate within our human race’s territory to transfer a large Monster Clan army, even including True Spirit level beings..."

"What?"

"That’s impossible..."

The elders and guests below immediately burst into an uproar.

Fairy Chen was even more puzzled, "With our human race’s arrays, as well as the vast and treacherous terrain of the Earth Immortal Realm... a teleportation array capable of spanning the territories of the Monster Clan and human race simply cannot be erected. What kind of extraordinary Treasure of Void is needed to achieve this?"

"It must be of Immortal Mansion Rare Treasure grade..."

The Grand Elder replied, "In short, fortunately, our human race’s fortune is profound, and righteous individuals just happened to discover this conspiracy within the Monster Clan and relayed the message back to the human race..."

"Now, several of our human race’s Mahayana Monks have already set out, aiming to surround and eliminate the leader of the Sky Demon Association. We are meanwhile tasked to seal off the Star Domain and the nearby Flowing Spring Domain... we cannot let any high-ranking members of the Sky Demon Association escape!"

"So, it is a mission personally assigned by our race’s Mahayana Individual Immortals!" Fairy Shi exclaimed in extreme surprise.

According to past precedent, shouldn’t it be the Five Sons of Human Race who assigned the tasks?

"This matter..."

The Grand Elder’s face turned serious, and then he cast a ray of light.

Mingyue Palace rumbled, revealing a layer of prohibition.

Seeing this development, Fang Xi’s expression turned solemn, recognizing that the Grand Elder was about to reveal some critical information.

"This matter concerns the true identity of the Sky Demon Association’s leader!"

The Grand Elder announced, "That Sky Demon Association leader, in truth, is none other than one of the Five Sons of Human Race, ’Fu Youzi’!"

"What?"

At this revelation, all the cultivators were greatly shocked.

"One of the Five Sons of Human Race, serving as a spy for the Monster Clan?"

Chi Songzi was astonished and pale.

The Five Sons of Human Race were part of the human race’s high echelon, and aside from Jin Gangzi, Changqingzi, and Wu Xingzi, there were Fu Youzi and Mo Yunzi, representing the demon cultivators and demon magicians within the human race.

The fact that Fu Youzi was now implicated could bluntly affect the overall status of demon cultivators within the human race!

From now on, it was possible that demon cultivators in the human race would be universally condemned!

"Such scum of the human race deserves death by everyone’s hand!"

Master Dongqiuzi snorted coldly, making his judgment.

No matter whether Fu Youzi defected to escape the human race, or if he had always been a spy for the Monster Clan, there was no room left for turning back now. Upon their next encounter, it would surely be a battle to the death!

Although... Fang Xi had his doubts that even if the cultivators of Moon Invitation Immortal City joined forces, they wouldn’t be enough to crush even one of Fu Youzi’s fingers!

"Ahem!"

The Grand Elder glared at Dongqiuzi, feeling that ever since the Puppet Grandmaster had refined the quasi-seventh level Dragon and Phoenix Puppets, his attitude had changed somewhat.

Even if it was just bragging, those kinds of words were best left unspoken.

What if they really ran into him?

"In conclusion... since Fu Youzi and Mo Yunzi were responsible for the original defenses of the human race, we were truly caught off guard... Besides this, many secret orders and arrangements need to be changed. Therefore, the previous hand orders of the Five Sons of Human Race have been invalidated and will now be personally issued by Mahayana Individual Immortals..."

"I see..."

Fang Xi lightly rotated his prayer beads, displaying an air of calm as if Mount Tai were collapsing before him: "This old man would like to know the name of the undercover hero from the Monster Clan..."

The Grand Elder’s face revealed a hint of oddness upon mentioning this:

"Although the human race previously sent quite a few spies into the Monster Clan, the one who alerted the higher-ups this time was not among them. Instead, it was an Individual Cultivator who went to seek Integration opportunities within the Monster Clan... um, he had even appeared on a wanted list before, but in the face of such major issues, all past misdemeanors can be written off..."

"Speaking of which... we have heard of his great reputation. Many have even seen him with their own eyes and exchanged blows with him."

Having said this, the Grand Elder turned to look at Chi Songzi.

Chi Songzi showed a puzzled expression: "I too am eager to know the identity of this human hero who could achieve such a feat of saving us from peril. I truly admire him from the bottom of my heart..."

"This person goes by the name—Fang Immortal Taoist Master!" the Grand Elder said with a light smile.

"It’s him?!"

Chi Songzi’s eyes bulged and his cheeks twitched involuntarily, as he was reminded of that being from years ago who had killed the Saint of the Star Sect along with Lord San Jian, Master Zi Feng, and broken the Flying Swords of Guang Qianjian, causing this swordsman to lose his sword spirit and never recover from his decline, also wounding himself!

"Fang Immortal Taoist Master... it turns out to be him?"

Fairy Chen’s beautiful eyes lit up: "I’ve heard that he can even, with a Returning to Emptiness physique, injure the Mahayana old ancestor of the Star Sect, Zhai Xingzi... such exceptional brilliance indeed."

"Exactly, this person has recently gained a great opportunity in the Monster Clan and has ascended to Integration..."

As the Grand Elder spoke, his tone was filled with envy.

After all, the cultivation level of Fang Immortal Taoist Master had been close to his, perhaps even a little less.

Yet, he gained the greatest benefits from an Immortal Mansion overseas, rapidly progressing his cultivation to complete Returning to Emptiness.

Then... he obtained a great opportunity amongst the Monster Clan, ascending to Integration!

And he himself was still struggling to even glimpse the edge of Integration.

By comparison, he felt as though a lifetime of cultivation had gone to the dogs.

Fang Xi: "..."

He was speechless for a long time. As soon as the Grand Elder had mentioned this matter, Fang Xi had a premonition, and it did turn out to be true.

’Sure enough, worthy of being Fang Immortal Taoist Master, he stirs up storms wherever he goes!’

"As per the instructions of a certain Mahayana senior, the arrest warrant for him has been revoked. Even if the Star Sect is reluctantly, they can only accept their loss... Of course, after the great battle between humans and demons, Zhai Xingzi can seek personal revenge, and the human race will not interfere," the Grand Elder coughed.

"Now Fu Youzi will naturally be dealt with by Mahayana Monks. The super teleportation arrays in the nearby domains have been completely closed down. All we have to do is patrol the designated areas so that the remnants of the Sky Demon Association do not escape..."

"What should we do if we encounter Integration Cultivators?"

Shi Xianzi raised a question.

"Our Immortal City will provide a batch of ’Small Void Transfer Talismans.’ Although these talismans have limited effects, Integration Cultivators who are desperate to escape will not make things difficult for us... and I will also bring precious treasures from the Immortal City, leading teams separately with Master Dongqiuzi... By then, even if we encounter Integration Cultivators, we should be able to withstand them for a while until reinforcements arrive," the Grand Elder answered slowly.

Small Void Transfer Talismans could only transfer for ten thousand miles, not yet out of the Divine Consciousness sensing range of Integration Cultivators.

As long as one didn’t offend them fatally, withdrawing ten thousand miles would usually lead such escaping Integration Cultivators to avoid further pursuit...

Together with Dongqiuzi and the Grand Elder, one could say their preparations were quite thorough.

"Let us not delay, we shall depart immediately!"

The Grand Elder made a swift decision: "The great battle may well be over by now. Everyone, take your sensing arrays and Array Disks... and follow me to war!"

If the order had been from the Star Sect, Moon Invitation Immortal City would surely have prevaricated.

But now it was an order personally issued by a Mahayana Individual Immortal, something even Zhai Xingzi wouldn’t dare disobey.

Suddenly, streams of Escape Light flew out from Moon Invitation Immortal City, stirring up Primordial Energy as they sped towards the border of the Star Domain and the Flowing Spring Domain.

Fang Xi rode a stream of golden light, casually engaging in Divine Consciousness Transmission with Fairy Chen and Shi Xianzi, who wished to team up with him, discussing strategies.

At the same time, he was also secretly sensing the location of the fragments of the Treasures of All Heavens.

When he detected that one of the fragments was in a nearby domain, he finally confirmed:

’What treasure that can teleport without obstruction through the Void... it turns out it’s a fragment of my Treasures of All Heavens...’

’No, it seems the Monster Clan actually has two pieces!’

’The piece that was within the human race was in Fu Youzi’s hands, and he has been waiting for this opportunity!’

’So... should I take the opportunity to retrieve this piece of the Treasure Mirror?’

If the bronze fragment was still with Fu Youzi, Fang Xi would have to give up, but if it was with other Demon Cultivators...

Whoever was carrying the fragment of the Treasure Mirror was effectively carrying a locator. At a moment like this, it was practically a death warrant!
