Chapter 983: When the tiger is absent from the mountain, the monkey becomes king |
Song Heng and Gu Lisheng felt their minds almost shrinking at these words.
Such a precious high-grade magical artifact, how could it possibly malfunction so easily...
Little Chi retracted his lion head and smiled casually, not too concerned about whether Zun Wu could set off. He had already seen the top-grade spirit stones in the groove.
Who was Brother Xun? He was the Dao Ancestor of the Five Elements, who never wasted a single bit of immortal resources. The fact that he was willing to go all out for their return was enough.
Only because he knew Brother Xun's character did this matter seem all the more precious.
As for what Brother Xun said, he didn't care at all.
Little Chi chuckled and interjected, "Brother Xun, let's wait for Brother Bull to come out of seclusion and ride together. Besides, Sister Crane is still on the battlefield beyond the boundary. How could we leave them out?"
"That makes sense!" Chen Xun secretly gave Little Chi an approving look. As expected of his own brother, he understood him well.
Qionghua Shuiyu had a faint smile on her lips and didn't say a word.
Chen Xun turned to him and changed the subject, "Young Master Gu."
"Hmm? Is the Fishing Emperor about to start fishing?" Gu Lisheng raised an eyebrow, instantly pulling himself out of his low mood.
"A friend from my sect is waiting for you," Chen Xun smiled. "His name is Tian Yun, and you should meet him."
"Don't know him." Gu Lisheng thought for a moment and shook his head, his expression very deep. "But since the Fishing Emperor has spoken, this prince will naturally go to meet him."
"Let's go." Chen Xun pointed to the ground, and in an instant, they were all ejected by Zun Wu to the outside world, standing outside the massive ship.
Song Heng couldn't help but glance around. There were quite a few spaces here... Could it be that the factory owner wanted to collect a large number of Domain Crossing Space Boats? What a grand gesture.
"Where is Tian Yun!" Chen Xun called out, his voice spreading through the sea of clouds, causing the spirit beasts and fierce beasts within the ring-shaped mountain to roar along: "Where is Tian Yun?!"
This scene made many disciples of the Five Aggregates Sect twitch their expressions. The spirit beasts and fierce beasts in the sect were becoming more and more human-like, actually showing a bit of humanity.
Inside a small peak, this place was called Little Ten Peaks.
Every few miles within stood a tomb, and unsurprisingly, all the tomb names were Tian Yun.
Because of these tomb markers within Little Ten Peaks, he had never gotten lost again. Of course, outside Little Ten Peaks, he would be lost beyond recognition, as the Jade Bamboo Range was simply too vast.
Today, he was sitting quietly on a stone chair, reading a book, with a gourd on the table filled with dew.
At this moment, sunlight filtered through the dense bamboo leaves, casting on him, while a gentle breeze rustled the bamboo leaves, and the faint sound of a mountain spring came from afar, immersing him in the fragrance of books, enjoying a peaceful and harmonious time.
Tian Yun had been quite honest over the years, though slightly melancholic. He remembered the sect wanted him to train on the battlefield beyond the boundary...
He was forcibly taken by the Heavenly Melody Immortal Kingdom and sent here, then forcibly left by Chen Xun. He had grievances but couldn't voice them.
He wondered if his senior brothers could find him... But he had already left coordinates on the Immortal Kingdom's transport ship, so they should be able to locate him.
And what the Three Thousand Great Worlds didn't know was...
In the deep space of the battlefield beyond the boundary, Futian's face was grim, with a hint of shock in his heart. Motherfucker, which old guy took Tian Yun away, where is he?!!
But this was just a small episode and didn't affect anything.
The battlefield beyond the boundary was still filled with endless slaughter, with billions of races from the Three Thousand Great Worlds gathered, chaotic beyond measure, countless evil spirits transforming into the boundary lands, and Evil Marrow Crystals being laid out recklessly.
The Ancient Saint Clan had already moved, and Futian naturally wouldn't be absent. This matter was related to the chaotic ancient path mentioned by the Blood-Clothed Immortal King.
And below the immortals, many powerful juniors from billions of races had gradually begun to shine on the battlefield beyond the boundary. The unparalleled geniuses on the Chaos Immortal Spirit List, like the Ancient Star Sea and Ling Mengli, were also present.
The true immortal path powerhouses of the Three Thousand Great Worlds were all fighting bloodily on the battlefield beyond the boundary, not peacefully cultivating within the Three Thousand Great Worlds.
Now, the major news from the battlefield beyond the boundary began to spread throughout the Three Thousand Great Worlds, and countless beings finally understood why the Shi Rong Immortal dared to stir up chaos in the Nine Great Worlds back then.
This was a case of the mountain being without a tiger, and the monkey becoming king...
And because of the invisible influence of the battlefield beyond the boundary, even the Dao Ancestor of the Five Elements' sacrificial ceremony had dimmed significantly. Five hundred years, facing all sorts of bombardments from the Three Thousand Great Worlds' immortal sound formations.
It was enough to forget too many major events that had been dormant. If it were mortals, ten years would be enough to forget many major events.
Five Aggregates Sect, Little Ten Peaks.
Tian Yun murmured as he looked at the book, "Brother Chen has changed so much, no longer as approachable as before. It seems the immortal path realm is indeed a shackle for beings, this path is flawed."
There were a few more books on the table, "Cultivating Immortality Guide: 360 Ways to Conceal Breath and Play Dead," "How to Predict When Others Are Playing the Pig to Eat the Tiger," "How to Predict and Avoid Heavenly Tribulations."
They were illustrated, but the techniques were quite crude, clearly printed in the mortal world of the Kingdom Qian, saving to the extreme.
He couldn't help but laugh as he read, truly wondering what Brother Chen had gone through to write such books.
As for why he knew it was written by Chen Xun, each book, when opened to the first page, would say:
"This is personally written by this Dao Ancestor, piracy will be prosecuted!"
"How to prosecute, all rights of interpretation belong to this Dao Ancestor!"
Such antics were clearly learned from those divine sense techniques with Black Bull in the Mengmu Sea Region.
"Where is Tian Yun?!"
As he was deep in thought, a grand voice echoed through the sky, with all kinds of beings' voices joining in, even the ancient beast outside the mountain gate let out a roar.
To find someone in the Five Aggregates Sect, you had to shout like this, simple and efficient.
"Hmm?" Tian Yun was startled, a look of shock flashing across his face. This kind of setup seemed like they were going to send him to the Immortal Execution Platform.
"Tian Yun." A graceful figure in a green dress approached from not far away, her attire not showing off, only adorned with flowers and birds.
Tian Yun suddenly stood up. Having stayed in the Five Aggregates Sect for so many years, he naturally knew what the patterns on these clothes meant, and he recognized this woman, who had joined the sect with him.
"Fellow Daoist Chu Zhen." Tian Yun politely cupped his hands, "This kind of summoning sound, I'm afraid it's the Dao Ancestor wanting to meet the junior."
Chu Zhen's cold and beautiful face had become much more serene, carrying a faint tranquility, and she smiled, "The prince has returned, and the senior brother wants you to meet him."
"I'll set off immediately." Tian Yun adjusted the bamboo tube on his back without asking more, "Fellow Daoist Chu Zhen, please lead the way."
His words carried a hint of urgency. He actually wanted to leave the Five Aggregates Sect, as he felt no sense of belonging here, and it was not a place for sect training.
