Chapter 1082: Chapter 1082: The Legendary Immortal

Huang Shi shook his head, "Actually, regarding this, the Five Great Sects of Kunlun had also explored it, but in their view, they are the secret realms of legacy left behind by powerful predecessors."

"However, the truly powerful experts in Kunlun are merely at the Pseudo-Dan Realm, according to current records, the powerful legacies found within the secret realms have already surpassed the Pseudo-Dan Realm."

"So, we have always speculated that the legendary Celestial Beings are the cultivators who have truly cultivated to a higher realm, and they might even possibly be the fabled immortals!"

Ning Fan furrowed his brows, pondering over Huang Shi’s words.

If these secret realms really were left by the fabled immortals, perhaps there would be news regarding a deity’s transformation back into a human.

"Since the secret realm has appeared, it shouldn’t only be the people from the Tieshi Sect who have come, right?" Ning Fan asked.

"Yes, according to the information I have received, aside from the Tieshi Sect, there are at least four or five medium-sized sects that have arrived, all intending to compete for this secret realm."

Huang Gu thought for a moment, then said in a low voice, "If your excellency is looking for news about your companions, perhaps some clues can be found in this secret realm. Those medium-sized sects’ search efforts are much greater than ours, so they should have more information."

Ning Fan pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Alright, let’s head to the secret realm right now."

Following that, he took out elixirs from the Qiankun Ring and distributed them to the surviving people for healing.

As for Huang Gu, when he was defeated by Ning Fan, he had already lost control over the Sect Disciples.

And those independent cultivators, they have always only recognized strength, not allegiance.

For them, following Ning Fan wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

The Five Great Sects had held sway over Kunlun for many years, so if a cultivator at the lower levels did not join a sect, it was very difficult to have a chance to become a high-level cultivator.

Back when Ning Potian caused havoc in Kunlun, actually quite a few lower-level independent cultivators inwardly supported Ning Potian.

After all, if Ning Potian really managed to overturn the Five Great Sects, it wouldn’t be a bad thing for those cultivators who hadn’t received cultivation resources.

Unfortunately, later on Ning Potian was hunted by the Five Great Sects relentlessly, and the independent cultivators could only suppress such thoughts in their hearts.

But now, the son of Ning Potian had reappeared, stirring the thoughts of those independent cultivators who had heard of Ning Potian’s past deeds.

"Ning fellow daoist, besides looking for your father this time... do you have other plans?" inquired Huang Gu in a low voice during a rest.

Ning Fan frowned, "What are you trying to say?"

Huang Gu hesitated for a moment, then said solemnly, "Actually... If you really want to deal with the Five Great Sects, I suggest that you first unite the other sects."

"The Five Great Sects have controlled Kunlun for far too long, so long that none of us can stand it any longer."

"One command from the Five Great Sects, and we must act accordingly, but any resources are entirely theirs."

"These guys demand everything from us, and in fact, besides those sects that depend on the Five Great Sects, most of us can no longer tolerate it."

Upon hearing this, Ning Fan narrowed his eyes and sized him up, then suddenly sneered, "You want me to fight to the death with the Five Great Sects, don’t you?"

"If I do as you say and rally the other sects to trouble the Five Great Sects, and end up being destroyed by them, you could benefit from the situation."

"But if we succeed, we naturally can become the new Five Great Sects, and as the first to support me, you would be credited with a vital contribution; it seems you’d profit either way."

Caught with his intentions laid bare, Huang Gu looked somewhat embarrassed, but still nodded, "That... that... well, I also just want some changes to occur in Kunlun. After all, if things continue as they are, I don’t know how long the current state of Kunlun can be maintained."

"My cultivation has reached its peak, and without any other resources, I can only remain at this level for the rest of my life, then wait to die of old age, but I don’t want to die yet."

Ning Fan did not take issue with him and simply stood up and said dismissively, "Don’t worry, even without your words, I would inevitably confront the Five Great Sects sooner or later."

The attitude of the Flying Immortal Sect said it all.

Just knowing that I am the son of Ning Potian, they mobilized the whole sect, even at the cost of completely destroying another sect, just to force me out.

A glimpse gives an insight into the whole; from this, I can tell how the Five Great Sects regard me.

Moreover, the strange attitude of the Flying Immortal Sect toward me has also aroused my suspicion.

They seem eager to capture me, wanting urgently to extract news about my father from me, yet they are secretive and restrained with the other sects.

"Something is off. Within the Five Great Sects, there must be other secrets, perhaps even the whole of Kunlun is unaware of these matters."

Along the way, Ning Fan had subtly and overtly inquired many people.

The news gathered from their mouths was all about Ning Potian challenging the Five Great Sects back in the day, inciting them to a tireless hunt until his disappearance.

This story clearly didn’t line up with the situation displayed by the Flying Immortal Sect.

"Father... What on earth happened back then?"

As Ning Fan pondered, everyone had finished healing.

Following Ning Fan’s instructions, Huang Shi also took the others as disciples of the Jinmu Sect, to serve as a facade.

As for the bodies of the others, they were simply destroyed there and then. According to Huang Shi, these disciples were also just beginners and hadn’t consumed much of the sect’s resources after all.
