Chapter 224: Chapter 197: Descending to the Lower World_1
“`
After a long while.
The many Immortal Generals of Xuan Yin Immortal City had already begun sealing information.
In a secret hall, only Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin stood, gazing at the unconscious Xuan Di with a grave expression.
Soon after, an old crone slowly walked out.
The crone’s body was somewhat hunched, her face full of wrinkles, but on her back, she still carried a seven-stringed zither!
“Disciple, what has happened, that you disturb my meditation?”
The old crone’s voice was somewhat hoarse as she spoke up.
She was Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin’s master!
Heavenly Lord Shengqin!
“Master…”
“I might have found… traces of the Immortal King’s Stratagem Melody!”
Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin spoke slowly, with great solemnity.
Upon hearing this, Heavenly Lord Shengqin’s face changed dramatically, she was hugely astonished!
“What?!”
Her aged face was extremely solemn as she asked, “Where?!”
Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin pointed at the unconscious Xuan Di!
Heavenly Lord Shengqin’s divine sense moved in an instant.
She scanned briefly.
“Heavens, such melodic laws, almost perfect, is it really… really the Immortal King’s Stratagem Melody?!”
Heavenly Lord Shengqin could barely believe it.
“The ancestral master of old, had reached the zenith of the Immortal Path in pursuit of the Saint Path, crossing the Taboo Sea. Before he departed, he left a secret tome with your senior sister…”
“And yet, that wretched woman, she actually fled the sect, truly deserving of death!”
“You and I, master and disciple, toiled earnestly, but in the end, we could only complete a mongrel version of ‘Celestial Monarch’s Formation-Breaking Tune,’ which possessed less than one percent of the power of the Immortal King’s Stratagem Melody…”
Heavenly Lord Shengqin uttered each word slowly, murmuring, with hatred in her eyes!
Xuan Yin Immortal City was originally just a city within the Saint Tone Immortal Country!
Saint Tone Immortal Country was one of the five great Immortal King-level forces of the Northern Border of the Northern Immortal Realm.
Saint Tone Immortal King once suppressed the entire Northern Immortal Realm and was hailed as the Celestial King!
During his reign, Saint Tone Immortal Country was unmatched in its prosperity.
But nearly a million years ago, in pursuit of higher realms within the Immortal Path, the Saint Tone Immortal King ventured into the Southern Immortal Domain, crossed the Taboo Sea, and from then on, there was no news of him!
Before he left, he bequeathed only a secret tome to Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin’s senior sister, Celestial Tone Immortal Lord.
Later, with Saint Tone Immortal King gone for so long, even the Soul Lamp he left at the sect was flickering between light and darkness.
The sect was in disarray, believing that Saint Tone Immortal King might have fallen.
When the news spread, the vast Immortal Country collapsed, devoured by surrounding nations.
Heavenly Lord Shengqin, being the only Celestial Monarch left in the nation, not only failed to resist the invasion of other nations but instead took this opportunity to coerce Celestial Tone Immortal Lord to hand over the secret tome.
What Celestial Tone Immortal Lord handed over, however, was just a blank book.
This enraged Heavenly Lord Shengqin, who ordered Celestial Tone Immortal Lord’s imprisonment and stripped her of her cultivation level!
But later, Celestial Tone Immortal Lord managed to escape.
For so many years since, their Xuan Yin Immortal City had been tracking the traces of Celestial Tone Immortal Lord!
“Could it be that the heavens have finally opened their eyes and seen my day and night pleas?”
Heavenly Lord Shengqin murmured, looking at Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin, saying:
“Who has wounded him?”
Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin said:
“In a lower world, he was hurt by a young woman!”
Upon hearing this, Heavenly Lord Shengqin was even more shocked, a lower world?
With gritted teeth, Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin said hatefully:
“`
“Master, I suspect in the Lower World…”
“It’s Senior Sister!”
Hate erupted in the aged eyes of Heavenly Lord Shengqin as he said:
“That bitch?!”
Her teeth clenched in anger, “It must be her!”
“Back then, I was the Celestial Monarch, yet when the ancestor departed, he left the inheritance to her… I hate! I hate!”
“This time, I want her soul to scatter, I want her to die without a place to be buried!”
Anger and jealousy twisted her aged face into something even more hideous!
“Master, judging from Xuan Di’s injuries, Celestial Tone hasn’t recovered to the Immortal Realm, this is our chance!”
Xuan Yin’s eyes also flashed with a hint of maliciousness!
“Start preparing for the Lower World!”
“You will go personally, this time, we must exterminate her!”
Heavenly Lord Shengqin spoke coldly, pausing for a moment before continuing, “I heard that Sun Junior True Monarch of the White Tiger Immortal Nation has returned to the Immortal Kingdom?”
Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin immediately nodded, “Yes, it is said that he has just presided over the White Tiger Clan’s True Monarch Blessing Ceremony!”
Heavenly Lord Shengqin nodded and said:
“Before dealing with that bitch, come with me to the White Tiger Immortal Nation to meet this Sun Junior True Monarch, do not forget, there is a marriage arrangement between you and him.”
“Now… with the Immortal Great Calamity likely imminent, we must hold even tighter to the White Tiger Immortal Nation!”
——After the disappearance of the Saint Tone Immortal King, the Immortal Country almost perished.
To survive, Heavenly Lord Shengqin had made a marriage alliance with the White Tiger Immortal Nation at all costs, fixing an engagement between Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin and the Sun Junior True Monarch of the White Tiger Immortal Nation.
However, Sun Junior True Monarch was always cultivating abroad and the wedding never took place.
Now that Sun Junior True Monarch has returned to the Immortal Nation, Heavenly Lord Shengqin could wait no longer, for she was deeply troubled by the legend of the Immortal Great Calamity!
Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin nodded and said, “Very well!”
“But Master,”
“According to the reports, many powers in the Northern Immortal Realm have received contacts from the Lower World.”
“They claim that a great world, surpassing and approaching the level of the Three Great Heavenly Realms, has appeared in the Lower World!”
“Moreover, the Immortal Spirit Qi there is incredibly dense, even surpassing many areas of the Immortal Domain.”
“Now, many powers can no longer restrain themselves and are ready to explore the Lower World. After all, with such an abundance of Immortal Spiritual Qi in a world, no major power will let it pass!”
“And… that bitch is probably in that world right now!”
Hearing this, the old woman spoke icily, “Given the temperaments of those Immortal Cities, they’re more likely to exterminate that realm!”
“If that bitch is killed, it will save us a lot of trouble!”
…
At this moment.
In the Northern Immortal Realm.
Many powers are restless!
Today, many forces have received messages from the Lower World.
A new great world has emerged!
Lanming Immortal City.
“Immortal Monarch, the information passed from my clan is absolutely correct, this is a great opportunity to expand our territory and we must not miss it!”
An Immortal General was reporting to a powerful Immortal Monarch.
This Immortal General, named Chen Ao, was the elder ancestor of the Chen Imperial Dynasty from Diming Realm!
Immortal Monarch Lan Ming thought for a moment and said:
“Agreed.”
“Go and establish an Immortal City there, it will be good for us.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Ao’s face lit up with joy!
He immediately left.
“Hehe, a new great world… this is interesting.”
In Guangzhao Immortal City, Immortal Monarch Guang Zhao, shrouded in golden sunlight as if clad in rays of sunshine, offered a slight smile and said,
“Light Brilliance, Guang Chen, you two have worked hard. Go forth and establish a power that belongs to us.”
In front of him, the two Immortal Generals immediately complied and set out!
…
Many powers were making their moves!
After all, within the Immortal Domain, the competition among the great Immortal Kingdoms and Immortal Cities was extremely fierce.
Even though the Immortal Domain was boundlessly vast, there were just as many cultivators as the seas, and resources were limited!
To have a Lower World where the cultivation environment rivaled that of the Immortal Domain was exceedingly rare.
Such resources, no Immortal City could afford to miss!
…
Soon, within the Northern Border of the Northern Immortal Domain, over a dozen Immortal Cities began to dispatch people to the Lower World.
They were all Immortal Generals!
…
A few days later,
Heavenly Realm.
Cracks in the realm walls suddenly appeared.
From another world, streams of golden light stretched out, forming bridges akin to those of the immortals!
Upon those bridges, figures began to emerge.
All were powerhouses from the Immortal Domain!
Diqing State.
Difu State.
Ditong State.
Diming State…
Strong beings appeared in the sky of many states!
“Heh, this domain is indeed not simple. It’s second only to the Heavenly Realm.”
“This place shall be our territory!”
“You mortals of this world, kneel at once. From this day forth, you shall be the subjects of our Sect Gate!”
As soon as these visitors from the Immortal Domain appeared, they issued their commands!
In an instant, the states of the Heavenly Realm shook violently!
Many Immortal Generals appeared within the states.
“I am Chen Ao, the ancestor of the Chen Imperial Dynasty. Where are my descendants? Come forth and pay homage!”
In Diming State, the Immortal General Chen Ao from Lanming Immortal City appeared upon this land with a loud shout.
At once, Diming State trembled greatly.
Within an Imperial Dynasty, countless people flew out, eyes brimming with tears!
“Great Ancestor!”
The current Emperor of the Chen Imperial Dynasty, Chen Qing, immediately led his clan members to hurry over and then they all knelt down!
“Great Ancestor, you have finally come!”
“Our Chen Imperial Dynasty was nearly annihilated.”
“The Diming Realm has been absorbed by the Heavenly Realm and has become one of its states!”
They all spoke up.
“Hmph, do not worry. From this day forward, Diming State will be established as an Immortal City, and you all shall enjoy the utmost wealth and honor!”
Chen Ao towered above them all, basking in the worship of his descendants.
“Great Ancestor, there is now a lord over the Heavenly Realm…”
At this time, Chen Qing spoke up, albeit reluctantly, “There is a terrifying existence in Xuan Tianzhou, revered as the Lord of the Heavenly Realm. If we occupy Diming State and establish an Immortal City, it might trigger a war!”
His words carried a hint of fear!
Upon hearing this, Chen Ao’s face instantly turned to anger, and he said,
“What? A ruler over the Heavenly Realm!?”
“Such audacity, such presumptuous insects!”
“I shall descend upon Xuan Tianzhou, slaughtering all in my path. This domain, the Lower World insects are unworthy of touching it!”
Chen Ao waved his hand grandly, and in an instant, all from Lanming Immortal City vanished from the spot.
“Great Ancestor…”
Chen Qing’s expression changed drastically. It was over. He hadn’t yet informed the Great Ancestor that the existence in Xuan Tianzhou might very well be at the Immortal-level…
In the same way,
at this moment, many powers that had descended upon the Heavenly Realm from the Immortal Domain became aware of the existence of the Lord of the Heavenly Realm.
“For this domain to dare to name itself the Heavenly Realm is already a taboo, and then there’s someone who dares to call themselves the Lord of the Heavenly Realm; they deserve death!”
“It seems before we occupy this domain, we must purge some of the insects from this world!”
“Heh, let’s go exterminate this so-called Lord of the Heavenly Realm. Moreover, that Xuan Tianzhou, they say, is the center of the entire world, truly a land of great fortune!”
Many forces from the Immortal Domain instantly converged upon Xuan Tianzhou!
…
And at this moment,
Xuan Tianzhou.
“Alliance Hierarch, disaster looms!”
Messengers from different factions arrived continuously to report.
“People from the Immortal Domain have arrived in Ditong State and are now heading towards Xuan Tianzhou!”
“Envoy from Lanming Immortal City in the Immortal Domain has arrived in Diming State, only twenty states away from Xuan Tianzhou.”
“The powers of Guangzhao Immortal City have issued a declaration of war, stating they will annihilate the Lord of the Heavenly Realm!”
One urgent report followed another!
All in the Xuantian Alliance bore grave expressions.
“The Immortal Domain has finally discovered the changes in this domain…”
“The Heavenly Realm is now too conspicuous amongst the Million Lower Realms. It cannot be concealed… Alas, the Immortal Domain will not let such a juicy piece of meat go.”
“Could it be that we have to contend with the Immortal Domain for sovereignty?”
The mood was heavy amongst everyone.
In fact, since the Convergence of Myriad Realms, all in the Xuantian Alliance had been mentally prepared.
Such a significant event could not remain hidden forever; it would inevitably attract the covetous gaze of the Immortal Domain.
Yuanyang Holy Lord then turned to Fire Spirit and said,
“Alliance Hierarch, should we battle, or should we let the Immortal Domain establish their legacy and coexist peacefully with them?”
He posed the question.
Fire Spirit was silent for a moment before saying,
“If the visitors from the Immortal Domain are willing to respect the Lord of the Heavenly Realm and live in peace with the Heavenly Realm, then we can allow them to establish their legacy.”
“If the Immortal Domain wants to fight, then we have no choice but to battle!”
Her words were resolute!
“Summon the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals. Prepare for battle!”
Instantly, the Xuantian Alliance stirred!
The Heavenly Soldiers and Generals all gathered!
Shortly after,
“Chen Ao, the Immortal General of Lanming Immortal City, has arrived. People of Xuan Tianzhou, swiftly come and submit!”
“Light Brilliance and Guang Chen, the two Immortal Generals from Guangzhao Immortal City, have arrived! The lord of this domain, come forth and pay your respects!”
“Jiang Yun, the Immortal General from Yunfeng Immortal City, has arrived!”
Mighty voices resounded throughout Xuan Tianzhou!
