Compared to Circulatory World, Nine Heavens walane of existence that was far inferior to the former.
What was most obvious was the concealment of these two worlds in the starry sky, as well as their ability to protect themselves.
The rough location of the Circulatory World in the starry sky was already known to most of the foreign forces. However, the Sector lord s of the Circulatory World were able to set up an immortal formation outside of the plane and combined with the dual concealment of the world’s barriers, making it impossible for the foreign forces to pinpoint the specific location of the Circulatory World even now.
In the past, it was fine that no one had discovered the specific location of this Surface World. But now that it had been found out, it also meant that the World Barrier of Nine Heavens could be assaulted by the foreign forces at any time.
Of course, it wouldn’t be that easy to break through a world’s barrier. Back then, the foreign forces had to use a giant starship to invade their Circulatory World, so Nine Heavens couldn’t be compared to the profound strength they had accumulated in their foundation. However, if they wanted to forcefully break through the barrier, they would probably need at leaseavy weapon on the level of the Star Ocean Ship.
As for Dao Ancestor Huang Ting, forcing his way through the world barrier was simply courting death, even if he succeeded in ascending to the Immortal Realm and his fleshly body became a Saint and directly entered into the realm of the Golden Body Immortal, he should still not be able to charge into the Nine Heavens with the Heavenly Emperor of Sector lord watching over him.
Aesult, after Yang Junshan chose to smash his head into the world barrier of Nine Heavens, Zhang Yueming, along with Sang Song, Zhu Zhu, Mei and the others simultaneously chose to give up.
No one moved. Even though Xiao Xunqian was extremely envious of the immortal treasure that might exist on Yang Junshan’s body, he still did not have the courage to send him off by himself. He could only grit his teeth and watch Yang Junshan commit suicide.
However, immediately, Xiao Xunqian’s eyes lit up. Just as Yang Junshan was about to smash into the spatial barrier of the Nine Heavens, everyone’s consciousness detected a weak spatial fluctuation at the same time, and a cold light flashed in midair for a moment. Yang Junshan, who was already powerless, could only watch as his chest was pierced, and then, his entire body was engulfed by the spatial fluctuation that suddenly appeared in the air.
A human figure slowly appeared from the ripples in the air like a wave, and then, he watched Yang Junshan disappear into the distance without moving an inch.
“Why bother doing so, Ghost King?” Daoist Bai Qing asked when he saw the person.
That person’s body trembled when he heard this. He then slowly turned around and looked at everyone with an expressionless face. There waint of coldness in his tone as he said: “I only believe in the dead!”
Daoist Bai Qing frowned. He seemed to have sensed that the Spirit King Lu Jin’s expression was strange and said, “Could it be that His Excellency Ghost King has discovered something?”
Lu Jin’s eyes congealed, just now when he was stabbing Yang Junshan’s chest, the strange smile that suddenly appeared on his face flashed across his mind, after that his expression relaxed, and he said coldly: “Since he is dead, then wouldn’t it make everyone more at ease if he died completely?”
“Fellow Daoist Lu Jin’s words are very kind,” Xiao Xunqian first agreed, but then changed his tone and said, “However, if Sir Ghost King had taken Yang Junshan’s storage treasure from his body at that time, it would have been even safer!”
Ghost King Lu Jin’s lifeless eyes stared at Xiao Xunqian until he felt somewhat scared. Then, he coldly spat out two words, “Boring!”
Zhang Yueming then opened his mouth: “If there is no source imprint, then Yang Junshan will be dead for sure once he enters Nine Heavens. I have already completed my mission, let’s report back to Celestial Sovereign!”
The Sword Bamboo Daoist heard this and said, “Without Yang Junshan aotential threat, Circulatory World would be maintained under the control of the Sector lord for at least another three hundred years. At that time, even if the Sector lord controlled all of the Essence Will s within the Circulatory World, they would still be affected and controlled by the will of the Sector lord himself even if they were to transform into the Zhou Tian Star Realm.
Hearing that, Spirit Child Honored Warrior Shixiu chanted a Buddhist prayer in a low voice and clasped his hands together, unsure of what he was thinking.
“We should not stay in this place for long. Once the Sector lord s of the Nine Heavens sense our existence, they might send people to chase us down, or shift the location of the entire plane out of the starry sky. We should leave this place first!” Daoist Feng Hua also spoke up.
Everyone got ready to leave using the light source, but Ghost King Lu Jin suddenly said: “Everyone go first, I still have some other miscellaneous matters to take care of. I will need to return later to the Circulatory World.”
Everyone was stunned, Daoist Bai Qing said in a deep voice: “Ghost King should not forget about the oath made by the Haotian’s mirror before we left the palace.”
Lu Jin’s expression was cold, causing people to not be able to see what he was thinking, he only spoke: “Rest assured, I know what to do!”
Daoist Bai Qing had only warned him once, as though he was not worried that Lu Jin would take the opportunity to link up with the other Ghost Clan people, and left the place with the rest.
Lu Jin stood in place for a moment, then fled in another direction, and a moment later disappeared into the deep starry sky.
Nine Heavens, Yellow Soil Continent’s West.
A moment later, the whirlpool that had sunk deep into the ground formed a spatial tunnel, and a cultivator whose entire body was drenched in blood fell from it. The instant he fell to the ground, he could see yellow sand flowing everywhere, carrying the cultivator’s body deep into the ground.
However, it turned out that the cultivator’s luck was not good. He landed on the ground with heavy injuries, but alace where he landed on the ground was a quicksand pit.
The spatial whirlpool slowly began to dissipate in the air above the Gobi Desert. Not long after the spatial passageway disappeared, two streaks of light appeared from the east and the south.
A moment later, the two streaks of light seemed to have discovered each other. After pausing in midair for a moment, they then flew back to where they came from.
“Where did Fellow Daoist Huang Xuan come from?” The cultivator from the east was the first to ask.
The cultivator from the south smiled and said: “Fellow Daoist Xu Yan, why do you need to ask? I, Huang, have come with the same goal as Fellow Daoist Xu!”
After they finished talking, they smiled at each other and descended from the sky.
Daoist Xu Yan looked around and said, “Since both you and I have found this place, then I presume that my previous perception was accurate. What does Fellow Daoist Huang think?”
“There’s no mistake about it, I just don’t know where this person went. Currently, five of the eight Three Absolute Immortal Repositories of the eight floating continents have already been opened. Although we, the Yellow Division, all know that the outsider who is secretly passing through is an enemy with ill intentions, we all look forward to seeing him open the Immortal Repository!”
“It seems like Fellow Huang’s information is a bit late. According to the news that I just received, the immortal treasury of the Jade Water Continent has also been opened. Just like in the Black Wind Continent, the immortal foundation treasure has also been taken away by the alien smugglers.”
Taoist Huang Yun was flabbergasted when he heard that. “You took it?” Wasn’t it said that there were two immortal kings that specially descended to the mortal world? Furthermore, the strength of the Jadewater Continent was one of the best in the eight great floating continents. Could it be that the smuggler of the Jade Water Continent is even more powerful than the one from the Black Wind Continent who fought against the Immortal King? ”
It is said that the identity of the person who stole from the foreign lands is not simple. It is said that one of the two immortal lords that was stationed on the Jadewater Continent once toured the foreign lands, thus, when he attacked, he seemed to have pulled back his hands and feet, causing the other immortal king to be suspicious. In the end, it was the person who escaped, and the news that came from the Heavenly Court was that the immortal king who was in danger of releasing water did not seem to have been punished by the Emperor after he returned to the Heavenly Court. ”
“So that means that the identity of the smuggler is really extraordinary. Even the Celestial Emperor might be afraid of him now?”
Xu Yan sighed slightly and said, “This kind of thing will not have any concrete results in the Heavenly Court. For example, didn’t that alien stowaway of the Black Wind Continent spread the news that there was still another body that had reached sage realm, directly becoming Empyrean Golden Body’s Path?”
Taoist Huang turbid shook his head and said, “This news is too unreliable, I don’t really believe it.”
But Xu Yan said, “Who can say that clearly? The heavens have opened for thousands of years. Who knows how many secrets have been buried here? Forget about others, when the sky was opened, many Empyreans fought for the position of Heavenly Emperor, and some Empyreans even passed down their dao. However, after the Heavenly Emperor returned, in the past thousands of years, the only Heavenly Emperor in the cultivation world, have you ever heard of any other dao existence? ”
Taoist Huang turbid waved his hand and said in a low voice, “How can you just tell me all this? It’s still more important to find traces of the person who snuck in first. ”
The conversation between the two seemed to have touched upon some of the taboos of this world. For a moment, the two Daoists no longer spoke, instead concentrating on inspecting the traces left behind by the spatial ripples, attempting to deduce the direction in which the smuggler had left after entering this world.
However, Daoist Yellow Turbid spoke first, “It is said that the Black Wind and Jade Water Immortal Repository have been stolen by the alien cultivators. I heard that the most important treasure in the Black Wind Immortal Repository should be the Heavenly Wind Pillar, and it is said that it is one of the top three most precious treasures of all the Wind Elemental Treasures. This has even triggered a large-scale black storm in the Black Wind Continent, causing the Black Wind Continent to suffer heavy losses.
The expression on Xu Yan’s face was somewhat complicated. It was unknown if it was due to his grief or from gloating, but he said, “It’s the Three Light Divine Water!”
Taoist Huang Xuan was startled at first, but soon after, he sucked in a breath of cold air and said, “Then aren’t the people from the Jade Water Continent jumping around in a hurry?”
Xu Yandao said in a profound tone, “They’ve already started hopping. I’ve received news that quite a few people from the Greenwater Continent are already heading towards the Yellow Soil Continent and the Profound Ice Continent on a floating boat.”
Daoist Huang turbid said, “They’re here to fight for the flesh of others. I’m afraid there won’t be any more strife when the time comes!”
