The Immortal Sect proved to be far more powerful than expected, killing two Royal Family ancestors. This shocking development caused the You Country's Royal Family, led by Ji, to panic and attempt to cover up the losses. Ji desperately sought to negotiate with the Immortal Sect's leader, Wen Ping, even offering territorial concessions. However, Wen Ping refused any negotiations, confident in the Immortal Sect's strength. Meanwhile, the Immortal Daily published the news, causing widespread disbelief and leading the Long Family to openly align with the Immortal Sect.

"Negotiation? Quite amusing. Negotiating now, it’s too late." As the Sect Leader alone consecutively beheaded Fu Tianxie, Jiang Heshan, as well as the Wood Dragon, Si Haixian, and the Sword Demon’s Breaking Realm, Chen Xie understood clearly that the era belonging to the Immortal Sect was about to arrive.

No sect in Heaven-Gazing Gorge could impede the steps of the Jin High Tower.

The Jin High Tower and Immortal Daily could now expand even faster, even if You Country tried to obstruct their path.

As long as Ji doesn’t discover that Sikong Zhuxing is their man, the Jin High Tower can remain complacent, with no fear of harassment.

Moreover, they can target the Heaven Concealing Tower and You Country at the same time!

Because the world has too many loose cultivators.

Just from this battle alone, too many wish to join the Jin High Tower. Although surely some harbored ulterior motives, if the Jin High Tower cannot handle those infiltrators, he, the Hall Master of Jin High Tower, might as well step down and let someone else take over.

With this in mind, Chen Xie once more contacted Sikong Zhuxing with the Sound Transmission Stone.

Sikong Zhuxing, surprised by Chen Xie’s sudden contact, hurriedly asked, "Hall Master Chen, are there any further instructions?"

"Afraid you might overthink, so I remind you specifically. As long as you have merits, there will definitely be a place for you in the Immortal Sect in the future. The Sect Leader can consecutively behead two royal ancestors in the Upper Realm, and bring the Sect Leader into the Half-Step Primordial Vast, rendering him invincible in Heaven-Gazing Gorge!"

"Were the two ancestors slain by Sect Leader Wen?" Sikong Zhuxing was both astonished and delighted.

"I’ve said enough; weigh carefully how you should act. Don’t be too clever for your own good and end up harming yourself."

With that, Chen Xie put away the Sound Transmission Stone.

Why tell him the truth?

It’s to make Sikong Zhuxing work more diligently, without any disloyalty. Knowing the truth, Sikong Zhuxing, who inherently has a rebellious nature, if not foolish, would know what to do. As for how to arrange him in the future, Chen Xie couldn’t be bothered to think about it.

That would be up to the Sect Leader’s arrangement.

However, he wasn’t particularly keen on keeping Sikong Zhuxing. Since neither You Country nor his own master could tame him, how could the Immortal Sect?

After once more putting away the Sound Transmission Stone, Sikong Zhuxing couldn’t suppress his delight; the stronger the Immortal Sect, the more at ease he felt.

Whatever means the Immortal Sect’s Sect Leader used to kill at Half-Step Primordial Vast in the Upper Realm, let’s not worry, nor question its truth; it proves the strength of the Immortal Sect regardless.

"If there’s no way to escape from the Immortal Sect, being both the Hall Master of the Inspection Hall and a part of the Immortal Sect isn’t too bad. No one will want to kill me from either side!"

Immediately following, Sikong Zhuxing returned to the Royal Palace, dejected, with added anger, he informed Ji that the Immortal Sect was unwilling to negotiate.

Moreover, he did not forget to exaggerate the story.

At this moment, Ji’s face darkened, waving a hand, he said in a deep voice, "Enough, cursing won’t help. The Immortal Sect, like a thorn, has embedded deeply in You Country. The reason they dared not emerge before was simply because Heaven Concealing Tower and You Country had not declared war."

"Sovereign, what should we do then? The Immortal Sect refuses to negotiate, and Heaven Concealing Tower will soon learn of the fall of Ancestor Fu Tianxie and Ancestor Jiang Heshan. If Heaven Concealing Tower seizes this opportunity for a full-scale invasion, it could be quite troublesome."

Ji pondered for a moment, gritting his teeth, "Contact the Immortal Sect’s Sect Leader again, give them a little more time, and let them name their conditions. If they still refuse, then go to Beize Domain to negotiate with Heaven Concealing Tower, even if it means ceding Beize Domain; I’m willing. The Immortal Sect wants to profit from our life-and-death struggle with the Heaven Concealing Tower; truly wishful thinking!"

"Sovereign, wouldn’t that be too risky? If Beize Domain is ceded, in the future Heaven Concealing Tower could reach straight into the Central Divine Domain."

Sikong Zhuxing was stunned.

No!

Why the sudden leap off the cliff?

Isn’t it better to maintain the current situation?

Sikong Zhuxing added, "If Heaven Concealing Tower harbors an undying desire to destroy You Country and collaborates with the Immortal Sect, then it will be troublesome."

Ji’s eyes narrowed with cold fury, "Don’t speak such nonsense. If the ancestors were here, the scenario you described wouldn’t happen. A battle among top Half-Step Primordial Vast experts could tear Heaven-Gazing Gorge asunder. If they don’t want mutual destruction, they won’t do so."

"But..."

"Enough, continue contacting the Immortal Sect. Also, don’t stop the plans against the Jin High Tower, and accelerate the infiltration plans for their province."

"Yes, Sovereign!"

With no choice, Sikong Zhuxing could only leave the hall. The first thing upon returning to the Inspection Hall was to contact Wen Ping and disclose everything.

But this time, he was wiser, providing only information without opinions.

Upon hearing this, Wen Ping was not overly concerned, "Let him do as he wishes; Heaven Concealing Tower won’t agree."

"Yes, Sect Leader Wen." Sikong Zhuxing hesitated as he put away the Sound Transmission Stone, uncertain whose direction to follow.

After putting away the Sound Transmission Stone, Wen Ping gave a wry smile, "This Sovereign of You Country is truly willing to do anything. Such a disgraceful atrocity as ceding land, he’ll do just to maintain his position. Truly willing to go all out against the Immortal Sect."

After murmuring a few words, Wen Ping prepared to head to the Immortal Pu Garden to absorb the wood Qi generated there. Just as he left Tingyu Pavilion, the Sword Demon approached.

"Sect Leader."

Wen Ping gave the Sword Demon a once over, "Realm stabilized?"

"Stabilized, thanks to the old Sect Leader’s wife’s small Mirror-Breaking Pill. Without it, who knows when I could enter the Upper Realm."

"Now that your revenge is avenged, and the Upper Realm is achieved, if nothing urgent arises, focus on cultivation and don’t leave the Sect. If Huaikong needs assistance, you can help. Other matters, unless necessary, don’t get involved; focus on cultivation."

"Yes, Sect Leader! I will work hard in cultivation, not to disappoint your high expectations."

"Alright, if there’s nothing else, go cultivate."

"Sect Leader, there’s actually something I came to find you for. Since breaking the realm, my Spiritual Power has grown, so I wish to ask, if I boldly choose both Meridian Gate and Magic simultaneously, is it feasible? Will it waste time and result in accomplishing neither?"

"Yun Liao once had your confusion. However, he ultimately chose the path of the Full Element Mage. Though this path may take time, it’s feasible within the Immortal Sect. The Fifth World is available; merely enter a few times."

"Thank you, Sect Leader!" The Sword Demon was overjoyed to hear it was feasible. During these days of stabilizing his realm, he was terribly troubled over this matter.

Choosing to focus entirely on magic seemed redundant with his Upper Realm status already a certainty.

On the other hand, if he cultivated the Meridian Gate concurrently, the Vein Technique, Spirit Body, battle experience, and such, all required extensive accumulation and tempering.

Suddenly.

Wen Ping thought of something.

"Right, you can actually go to the Final Forbidden Area. If you happen to gain some opportunities there, perhaps it will be more promising than dual cultivating the Meridian Gate and Magic. Just look at Weiseng Xingyu. Life Technique—the ability to change fate is incomparable to Magic or Vein Technique."

In the Heaven Unrestricted Upper Realm, there shouldn’t be any life-threatening worries in the Final Forbidden Area. So venturing inside is better than merely retreating in cultivation.

The Sword Demon nodded, "Yes, Sect Leader! I’ll head to the Final Forbidden Area later."

"Alright, go cultivate."

After sending the Sword Demon away, Wen Ping hastily went to Immortal Pu Garden, found an Immortal Tree, and sat down cross-legged, operating the Changmo Technique to begin absorbing Wood Qi.

However, the Wood Qi generated by both the Immortal Tree and Jianmu was quickly depleted. Wen Ping couldn’t help but extend his clutches towards those celestial treasures and medicinal herbs, hundreds of years old, yet they still could only bring him a little Wood Qi.

No choice, Wen Ping left Immortal Sect, began piloting the Flying Ship among the mountains, constantly absorbing Wood Qi.

With that, Wen Ping let the system set the Flying Ship’s course throughout the mountains of the Red Domain, and commenced the journey of absorption.

When Wen Ping had only persisted on this journey for about three or four days, the system’s prompt suddenly woke him from his cultivation state.

[The Sword Demon in the Final Forbidden Area has been chosen by the Nine Extremes Demon Master’s inheritance, forcibly receiving the Nine Extremes Demon Master’s inheritance...]

"Hmm?"

Wen Ping was startled.

Immediately commanded the system to project the situation before him.

The Sword Demon was deep within an unknown place in the Final Forbidden Area. Here, whether trees, mountains, or land, all emitted dense black demonic Qi. On this land, there was a huge black stele, although only a hundred zhang tall, it emitted black Qi that trapped the Upper Realm Sword Demon.

The dense demonic Qi continuously poured into the Sword Demon’s body, gradually dyeing his Spirit Body black and causing his aura to climb steadily.

"System, what is this inheritance?"

The system responded: "The inheritance of the Nine Extremes Demon Master of the Demon Race. Although it doesn’t match the inheritance of the Cyan Lotus Sword Immortal, it is stronger than the Life Technique inheritance. Life Technique can change fate but requires a price. The Demon Master’s inheritance, cultivated to the extreme, allows for direct immortality and rebirth from a drop of blood!"

"This kid really struck luck." Wen Ping originally intended for the Sword Demon to try his luck in the Final Forbidden Area, but who would have thought he would be caught by the Demon Master’s inheritance as soon as he entered.

Wen Ping dare to ensure.

It must be the attraction of like forces!

Otherwise, he couldn’t find another reason.

Otherwise, why did the Wood Dragon wander the Final Forbidden Area for so long without encountering a single inheritance?

Thinking of this, Wen Ping put away his thoughts and closed the projection before him. Although the Sword Demon obtained the Demon Master’s inheritance, he didn’t mind.

Whatever demon or not.

Does Immortal Sect care about this?

Wen Ping continued to operate the Changmo Technique, absorbing Wood Qi from the mountains below, but not long into cultivation, he received a Sound Transmission from Yun Liao.

"Sect Leader, Huaikong, the Demon Emperor, has broken through, and he is preparing for a decisive battle with the Demon Emperor of the Sky-Split Race. He didn’t want to disturb you, so he asked me to pass the message along."

"Excellent, excellent."

Good things come in pairs.

Another Upper Realm added to Immortal Sect!

Since Huaikong has already reached the Upper Realm, with his S-level bloodline, he shouldn’t lose to the Sky-Split Race Demon Emperor.

"Sect Leader, do we need to help?" Yun Liao asked.

Wen Ping shook his head and said, "The Demon Race at Demon Emperor Lake needs to experience more, unless absolutely necessary, don’t help them. Tell Wood Dragon to keep an eye on Huaikong and his company, if other Upper Realm Demon Ancestors assist the Sky-Split Race Demon Emperor, let him drive them away."

Any Demon Ancestor can be experience for the Demon Race at Demon Emperor Lake, hence don’t let people from the sect intervene unless necessary.

"Yes, Sect Leader!" Yun Liao said, exchanged pleasantries and then cut off contact with the Sound Transmission Stone.

Wen Ping continued to cultivate.

However, good things keep happening.

Sect matters also arrived successively.

This time, it was Long Ke.

"Sect Leader, it has been confirmed that Yiluo Tian is on the battlefield of the Beize Domain. And just yesterday, Elder Weiseng killed a subordinate of Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm belonging to Yiluo Tian."

Long Ke opened with quite an eventful matter.

This completely distracted Wen Ping from cultivation.

Forget it.

Don’t cultivate.

Too many things are happening.

Better handle sect affairs first.
