Chapter 1036: The Situation in the Immortal Realm
"Two senior brothers, what is going on? Could you tell me more in detail?" Xu Nian looked at Wu Changchuan and the other man and said.
Wu Changchuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Junior Brother Xu Ping, here's the thing: there are nine dangerous zones in this Star Domain, each containing hidden secrets. However, these zones are extremely dangerous. One of them is called Ten Thousand Beast Mountain, which houses a powerful Demon Beast. Anyone who enters is almost sure to be obliterated by it. The four beauties you mentioned were forced into Ten Thousand Beast Mountain by someone, which is why they were captured."
"Forced into Ten Thousand Beast Mountain? You mean someone forced them to enter?" Xu Nian's eyes instantly turned sharp.
"That's right, it was people from the Reincarnation Sect. Their sect has a madman named Feng Cheng; his personality is extremely eccentric, just a lunatic. It was him who forced the four beauties into Ten Thousand Beast Mountain." Wu Changchuan said.
Xu Nian's eyes narrowed instantly, a killing intent flashed in his eyes.
Reincarnation Sect?
Feng Cheng!
If what these two said is true, then Feng Cheng is doomed.
Of course, Xu Nian didn't completely believe their words. What if these two are trying to use him as a tool to kill someone, wouldn't that make him a knife in someone else's hand?
"Brother Wu, what is Feng Cheng's strength? Is he very formidable?" Xu Nian continued to ask.
"Very strong. His Immortal Essence has fully transformed, and his insights have entered the realm domain. In the Chaos Sky Sect, he ranks among the top talents. He is extremely belligerent and his actions are crazy, so generally, no one dares provoke him, which is why we couldn't save those four beauties." Wu Changchuan said with slight remorse.
Xu Nian waved his hand and said, "It's not the fault of the two of you, if blame is to be laid, it falls on Feng Cheng."
Wu Changchuan nodded.
The Ye Tianyuan behind him also nodded.
"Could you two senior brothers tell me the direction of Ten Thousand Beast Mountain?" Xu Nian asked.
"Are you thinking of going to Ten Thousand Beast Mountain to rescue those four beauties, Junior Brother Xu Ping? If so, we happen to be headed that way and can take you along with us." Wu Changchuan said.
"That's great, thank you Brother Wu." Xu Nian quickly thanked him.
Wu Changchuan waved his hand, indicating no thanks were necessary.
Then he and Ye Tianyuan led the way in front.
Xu Nian and Sun Yuxiang followed behind.
"Senior Brother, Ten Thousand Beast Mountain is so dangerous, why are we headed there? Especially since those folks from the Reincarnation Sect might not have left yet." Ye Tianyuan asked Wu Changchuan through transmitted words.
"Don't worry, Junior Brother, the guy named Xu Ping behind us seems unusual. We can use him to deal with those people from the Reincarnation Sect, and then reap the benefits." Wu Changchuan replied with a smile through transmitted words.
"Is he really capable of dealing with the Reincarnation Sect?" Ye Tianyuan continued to ask.
"I'm not entirely sure. However, I deliberately mentioned Feng Cheng's strength being at the Peak Early Stage Earth Immortal, yet this guy not only showed no fear but directly showed killing intent, indicating he is confident in dealing with Feng Cheng. Even if his own strength isn't enough, he must have a card up his sleeve. I think he should come from some hidden major force. You should know, apart from our Four Great Sects, there are many hidden forces in the Nine Great Star Regions. Although they have few people, they are not forces we four sects can provoke." Wu Changchuan explained through transmitted words.
Ye Tianyuan nodded.
As a member of the Chaos Sky Sect, one of the Four Great Sects, he clearly knows this world is far more complex than they imagined.
In this world, some terrifying powerhouses exist.
Their strength is terrifying enough to threaten the Four Great Sects.
"If this is the case, then he can indeed pose a threat to those people from the Reincarnation Sect." Ye Tianyuan said.
"Not only that, but during crucial moments, we also need to lend him a hand. Befriending him can offer us great benefits as well." Wu Changchuan transmitted through words.
Ye Tianyuan nodded.
In his view, this Xu Ping clearly seemed inexperienced.
His emotions were all written on his face, obviously someone who just came out of seclusion.
So he believed Xu Ping's previous words even more.
Xu Nian chuckled lightly.
He had heard the entire conversation between the two clearly.
Of course, all of this was relayed to him by the Wentian Demon Sovereign.
"Kid, these two are trying to use you as a knife." Wentian Demon Sovereign yawned and said.
Recently, he had been asleep.
But he knew most things about Xu Nian.
Xu Nian was a bit surprised. He hadn't expected the Wentian Demon Sovereign, who usually didn't care about his affairs, to take initiative today.
"Senior Wentian, how come you're interested in coming out today?" Xu Nian curiously transmitted words to ask.
"Kid, I'm afraid if I keep sleeping, you'll miss out on a great opportunity, so I came out to give you some pointers." Wentian Demon Sovereign's voice rang out.
"A great opportunity? What opportunity?" Xu Nian asked in surprise.
What kind of opportunity could be considered great for him now?
"Kid, don't you find this Small World strange? Why did that Flying Sword fly out from the depths of the Star Domain? And why did the Four Great Sects send so many talents into such a Small World? Have you ever thought about it?" Wentian Demon Sovereign transmitted words again.
With these questions, Xu Nian fell silent.
Indeed, a place that could make the Four Great Sects send so many talents must have something special about it.
"To be honest with you, this place is a site for selection. The nine dangerous zones mentioned by that kid each represent one of the Nine Great Forces of the Immortal Realm. Each dangerous zone holds a token from one of these forces. Whoever obtains a token can join that force upon entering the Immortal Realm." Wentian Demon Sovereign said.
"Joining a force? What kind of opportunity is that?" Xu Nian frowned.
He felt a bit disappointed inside.
He originally thought there would be some huge opportunity.
Didn't expect it to be just joining one of the Nine Great Forces of the Immortal Realm.
If that's the case, he can totally choose not to join any force.
"If you really think you don't need to join any force, you're wrong. In the Immortal Realm, if you choose not to join a force, you won't be able to move an inch, and your cultivation will be severely limited." Wentian Demon Sovereign said.
"Why?" Xu Nian looked puzzled.
Why would not joining a force make his path of cultivation unable to progress?
Could it be that these forces can control Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy?
"Kid, you'll understand once you reach the Immortal Realm, but I advise you to try to obtain a token from one of the nine dangerous zones. It means more than just joining a force; it also means you can develop better in the Immortal Realm." Wentian Demon Sovereign said.
Xu Nian frowned slightly, unexpectedly hearing such words from Wentian Demon Sovereign.
In such a way, the Immortal Realm is obviously more complex than he imagined.
