Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times

The scholar brother following behind him didn't speak, just silently nodded his head.

It had been a long time since he had last spoken.

The last time he seemed to have talked was in the small world within Da Xia Country, during the bonfire party with Brother Qiu and a few others.

The scholar knew his younger brother's situation well and didn't say much either, just turning his head to look at the other disciples of the Chao Tian Sect beside him and smiling, "Everyone, you must work hard."

He had named his team 'I Have a Sword.'

Perhaps it was because he hadn't made a move in too long, many people had already forgotten he was a Sword Cultivator, a Sword Cultivator who understood his own Sword Intent and was quite talented and strong, the Sword Cultivator who Brother Qiu had once said was even better than the Seventh Prince of Da Xia.

Of course, his strength was definitely not eye-catching within the Chao Tian Sect.

But in the First Grade Continent...

Well.

It was time for the Heavenly Prides of the First Grade Continent to witness what 'I Have a Sword' really meant!

...

Weiyang Continent, a second-grade continent beneath the Vast Continent.

At dusk, several uninvited guests appeared.

In the mountains spanning tens of thousands of miles, a towering and straight cliff stood like a sword, and atop the cliff was a family known as the Wang Family.

From the sky, Chen Qiu and his companions looked down at this family, the Bai Family Patriarch introducing from mid-air.

"The entrance to the collapse of the underworld on the Weiyang Continent is right at this Wang Family. This family is also a top power on the Weiyang Continent. They were once a small family, but then came a peerlessly evil Heavenly Pride who completed two milestone missions and smoothly ascended to the second-grade Vast Continent, and during the struggle for the throne, they even became the King of Weiyang!"

"And after that?"

"After that... before the battle for the Unique King began, they disappeared without a trace, probably self-defenestrated and fled to the underworld like the others who secured the throne," the Bai Family Patriarch said with a complex expression. "After all, Master Chen, your prestige back then was quite frightening."

Those who could secure the throne, who didn't have great courage? How could they self-defenestrate just because the enemy was too strong?

Shouldn't they at least fight to test it out?

Without trying, how could they know if they were unbeatable, making it seem as if nobody had any trump cards? However... in that battle for the throne on the Vast Continent, the other eleven kings almost unanimously chose to self-defenestrate and avoid battle.

When the disparity in strength is to a certain extent, there's no need to fight at all.

Better to self-defenestrate early and preserve their Divine Soul in the underworld, otherwise, once the fighting starts, it means soul extinguishment.

"I see."

Chen Qiu nodded, then looked at the Bai Family Patriarch with a weird expression: "The Wang Family finding the underworld collapse entrance, they wouldn't widely publicize it, would they? How does your Bai Family's information network come to know such secret news?"

"About that..."

The Bai Family Patriarch said somewhat awkwardly: "The Bai Family regularly assesses rising Heavenly Prides. If we feel that they have the strength to come to a Third Grade Continent, we make arrangements in advance, to ensure that when they arrive, we have absolute control over them."

"This person later changed his name to 'Xian Yi'."

"And this Xian Yi is one of the Heavenly Prides we assessed as very promising, so we planted people in Xian Yi's old home in the First Grade Continent early on."

"It was also after Xian Yi's ascension that the Wang Family started to rise."

"And just recently, through this person, we learned of the underworld collapse and that the entrance is at the Wang Family."

"..."

Chen Qiu's expression became slightly weird as he glanced at Fat Long and the others around him. Most of the people from the Chao Tian Sect were those he had brought out from Da Xia Country, and if there were any outsiders, it would only be the likes of the Sect Master of the Heavenly Axe Sect who he had taken in halfway, and the maids found by Xiong Gao.

If someone had been planted among them, the maids were the most likely suspects.

"No, no, no."

The Bai Family Patriarch quickly explained, "Master Chen, rest assured, our Bai Family has absolutely not planted anyone around you. We periodically select Heavenly Prides from the lower continents, but you, Master Chen, rose too quickly. We hadn't even started a new round of screening before you had already risen..."

"Hmm."

Chen Qiu nodded and didn't say anything else, just looking down at the Wang Family below, knowing he definitely couldn't just force his way in, which would cause too much commotion. He planned to sneak in stealthily, unbeknownst to anybody, to keep a low profile.

And with his Cultivation, after using the Invisibility Technique, nobody had any chance of seeing through him.

Cultivation was simply overwhelming.

Only after hearing the conversation between the two, did Xiong Gao's eyes flash with a hint of fierceness. How could he have forgotten this matter? When selecting maids, he only considered their personality, appearance, and figure, without thoroughly investigating their backgrounds. If there were people from other forces among them, then it was all his fault. No, he must thoroughly review them when he got back!

...

After stuffing the Bai Family Patriarch, Xiong Gao, and a few others into his small world, Chen Qiu, all alone, used the Invisibility Technique and headed for the Wang Family below.

At that moment, the Wang Family below was quite lively.

Brightly lit and festooned with decorations.

It was like a wedding celebration, with red lanterns everywhere, and everyone's face brimming with joy and smiles. The doorstep was bustling without a hitch, except that this wedding seemed to have not invited outsiders; it was all people from the Wang Family themselves.

That was somewhat strange—who doesn't invite guests to a wedding?

But his purpose for this trip wasn't that. According to the information from the Bai Family Patriarch, the entrance to the underworld collapse was in the dried-up well in the backyard, which had been ongoing for more than a day now. It was estimated that in a day or two, the entrance would close, so he had to act quickly, without delay.
