Urban Undying Lord
Chapter 255 - 255 254 Erlang Reveals the Saint True Monarch

255: Chapter 254 Erlang Reveals the Saint True Monarch 255: Chapter 254 Erlang Reveals the Saint True Monarch The wealth of the Heavenly Court was unimaginable, and that was why Ye Xuan had been so patient, never leaving; he planned everything for the sake of his own cultivation.

Yet Ye Xuan also knew that there were far too many forbidden areas in the Heavenly Court.

First was the Immortal Peach Orchard, where peaches that ripened every three thousand to nine thousand years were grown, Immortal items of sanctity.

Second was Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad’s Doushuai Temple, filled with countless spiritual elixirs, including divine elixirs that could turn mortals into immortals on the spot and the legendary Nine Revolutions Golden Pill that could elevate an Immortal’s realm significantly.

Third was the Heavenly Court Treasury, housing boundless Immortal Techniques and Divine Weapons and countless amounts of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Essence.

But now, Ye Xuan was infuriated.

The Immortal Peach Orchard was protected by the Sealing Heaven Formation; even with secret techniques like the Primordial Spirit Void, he could not sneak into the orchard, and forcibly breaking the formation would undoubtedly lead to great upheaval.

The Doushuai Temple was the abode of Lord Lao Zi, an embodiment of The Three Pure Ones and an aide to the Jade Emperor in governing the Three Realms.

Even if Ye Xuan had the guts of dragons and hearts of phoenixes, he wouldn’t dare to sneak into the Doushuai Temple to steal elixirs.

And the key to the Heavenly Court Treasury was managed by the Jade Emperor.

Trying to obtain the key to the treasury from the Jade Emperor was simply suicidal.

Racking his brains, Ye Xuan could only helplessly shake his head; these three forbidden places tantalized him, yet he had no way to approach them.

Ye Xuan couldn’t help but sigh.

That monkey from the past ate the peaches and consumed the golden pills, truly a stroke of incredible fortune.

However, Ye Xuan also knew that the monkey’s havoc in the Heavenly Court had been tacitly permitted by both the Buddhist and Daoist branches.

How could he compare himself to that monkey?

Pondering without solution, Ye Xuan grew more anxious.

But before he could think of a strategy to improve his cultivation, a series of urgent footsteps came from outside the Luanyun Palace.

“Daoist Ye, you must descend to the Lower Realm and hide for a thousand years.”

Ye Xuan saw Changsheng Immortal Venerable, his face tense with urgency, stride into the Luanyun Palace, and before Ye Xuan could ask what had happened, the Immortal Venerable was already urgently pressuring him.

“Daoist brother, what has happened?” Ye Xuan’s expression froze, a bad premonition rising within him.

Seeing Ye Xuan’s confused look, Changsheng Immortal Venerable spoke with a hint of rebuke: “I ask you, did you secretly sneak into Guanghan Palace?”

As Changsheng Immortal Venerable spoke, Ye Xuan’s face paled.

He knew that his infiltration of Guanghan Palace was a secret between him and the Guanghan Fairy.

How could it have reached Changsheng Immortal Venerable’s ears?

Observing Ye Xuan’s stunned expression, Changsheng Immortal Venerable heaved a sigh and said, “Daoist friend, what am I to do with you?

That day I repeatedly emphasized that you should circumvent Guanghan Palace; why didn’t you heed your brother’s advice and instead acted so recklessly?”

At that moment!

Ye Xuan strove to calm himself, recalling his trip to Guanghan Palace.

Suddenly, a flash of spiritual light crossed his mind, and he finally realized where the problem had occurred.

On the day he left Guanghan Palace, a single sentence from the Guanghan Fairy had agitated his energy, causing his Primordial Spirit Void to reveal a flaw, exposing his figure for just an instant—something Ye Xuan hadn’t concerned himself with at the time.

But now, it seemed that the issue had arisen in that very moment, revealing his entrance into Guanghan Palace.

“Daoist brother, from where did you learn I had entered Guanghan Palace?” Ye Xuan asked, his eyes narrowing slightly.

“You, you,” sighed Changsheng Immortal Venerable with frustration, “it’s not just me who knows about this now, the entire Heavenly Court is aware that you’ve entered Guanghan Palace without permission.

You should hurry to the Lower Realm and hide for a thousand years, or else disaster is sure to befall you.”

“My Daoist brother jests,” replied Ye Xuan.

“I have known the Guanghan Fairy since the primordial times.

Now that I have reemerged into the world, what’s wrong with seeing her once again?

Have I violated some Heavenly rule?”

Ye Xuan was now like a dead pig not fearing scalding water; since the matter had been exposed, he might as well let things take their natural course, even speaking righteously in defense of his actions.

“My friend, even if you’ve broken the Heavenly rules, it doesn’t matter, because you were ordained by Yuanshi Tianzun as the Protector of the Jade Purity, and the Heavenly Court can’t really do much to you.

But you absolutely should not have gone to the Guanghan Immortal Palace….”

Changsheng Immortal Venerable explained the gravity of the situation to Ye Xuan, darkening his face further, only now realizing why Changsheng Immortal Venerable was so anxious.

There are countless admirers of the Guanghan Fairy among the gods of all heavens, the Buddhas filling the skies, and the great demons of the Three Realms.

Ye Xuan’s actions had directly transgressed their taboos.

Not to mention others further away, if Yang Jian, the True Monarch who Manifested the Saintly Way, were to learn of this, he would certainly ascend to teach Ye Xuan a lesson.

Ye Xuan had not forgotten that once, even a Taiyi Golden Immortal like Yuan Mo was chased by Yang Jian for billions of miles, and in the end was sealed by a group of immortals in the reverse passage.

Now he was merely a Taiyin Mystic Immortal; if Yang Jian actually came from Heaven to trouble him, even though he was an ordained protector and shared the same lineage as Yang Jian and would not be in mortal danger, his fate would be absolutely miserable.

“My friend, Pure Yang Golden Immortal Lv Dongxuan is a close ally of mine.

He has a cultivation ground on Dongxuan Mountain in the Earth Immortal Realm.

Go down to the Lower Realm quietly with this Spirit Talisman of mine and seek refuge with him.

When the commotion subsides, you can return to the Heavenly Court.”

Changsheng Immortal Venerable handed over a Spirit Talisman to Ye Xuan, urging him continuously to quickly descend to the Lower Realm.

At this moment!

With a grim expression, Ye Xuan stood unwavering.

He knew Changsheng Immortal Venerable meant well, wanting him to escape the imminent disaster, but Ye Xuan also understood that if he fled to the Lower Realm now, his reputation would be utterly ruined.

“True Monarch who Manifested the Saintly Way?”

Ye Xuan spoke with a somber voice, his eyes flashing with blood, and he pushed the Spirit Talisman back, saying, “If he truly comes to trouble me without discerning right from wrong, then I shall face him unafraid.”

Watching Ye Xuan’s fearless demeanor, an exasperated Changsheng Immortal Venerable said, “My friend, you are truly foolish.

My brother, Yang Jian, is a Luotian Golden Immortal, just one step away from entering the Golden Immortal Realm of Daluo.

Even the Jade Emperor doesn’t intimidate him, and within the Chan Sect, he is exceedingly oppressive.

Apart from his master Yu Ding, Real Man, nobody can make him listen.” “My Daoist brother’s good intentions are well-received,” retorted Ye Xuan with a stern voice.

“Even if Yang Jian is the first War God of the Three Realms, if he thinks me easy to bully, then he is gravely mistaken.”

At that, Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed, a flash of bloodlight streaking through them.

“Someone, show Changsheng Daoist brother out.”

Without allowing Changsheng Immortal Venerable to continue persuading him, Ye Xuan turned to leave abruptly, leaving Changsheng Immortal Venerable with no choice but to sigh helplessly and depart Luanyun Palace riding the clouds.

Truthfully, Changsheng Immortal Venerable had done more than enough for Ye Xuan out of consideration for the Jade Purity Token.

He wouldn’t have interfered in such matters otherwise.

Knowing that Yang Jian was among the most dazzling of the Chan Sect’s third-generation disciples, Changsheng Immortal Venerable himself was no match for him.
