Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques Chapter 1389 - 406: Lu Changsheng Returns to the Immortal Martial Palace! May I Ask, Fellow Daoist Lu, Have You Become Immortal? (Part 3)...

The Giant Cauldron Ancestor spoke.

He, at least, saw things very clearly.

"Breaking Illusion Ancestor, what do you think?"

Some people turned their gazes toward the Breaking Illusion Ancestor.

This was the number one person in the Immortal Martial Palace!

Back when Lu Changsheng was still around, the Breaking Illusion Ancestor was already a top-tier Ancestor Realm.

As for now, he had even broken through to the Strongest Ancestor Realm.

Only, the Breaking Illusion Ancestor was extremely low‑key.

He had always kept a low profile and never showed off.

Outside the Immortal Martial Palace, very few people knew that the Breaking Illusion Ancestor was in the Strongest Ancestor Realm.

However, even a Strongest Ancestor Realm wasn’t anything to be proud of in the current Boundary Sea.

After all, these days Immortals roamed the Boundary Sea like weeds on the roadside.

If a Strongest Ancestor Realm ran into an Immortal, it was still a dead end.

"Same old rule—endure!"

The Breaking Illusion Ancestor spoke slowly.

"We still have to endure?"

Many Ancestor Realms frowned.

How long had they already been enduring?

"If you won’t endure, then go talk to the Myriad Immortals Alliance yourself."

The other party fell silent.

Although the one notifying the Immortal Martial Palace’s people was not an Immortal of the Myriad Immortals Alliance...

He was indeed an Ancestor Realm of the Myriad Immortals Alliance.

Once they clashed with him and the Myriad Immortals Alliance intervened, who would they believe?

That went without saying.

"If we were to just directly join the Myriad Immortals Alliance as well..."

Someone could not help but speak up.

"Swoosh."

At once, everyone glared at him in anger.

In truth, such thoughts had surfaced in the minds of many within the Immortal Martial Palace.

But thoughts like this were extremely dangerous.

Because once they fully involved themselves with the Myriad Immortals Alliance, it would be equivalent to getting dragged into the struggle between Immortals.

With the slightest misstep, the Immortal Martial Palace would be wiped out overnight.

"Don’t ever say such things again in the future."

The Breaking Illusion Ancestor said crisply, cutting off all debate.

"Let’s first see what the Myriad Immortals Alliance wants us to investigate this time."

Thus, everyone went to read the Myriad Immortals Alliance’s notice.

And with one look, they were all shocked out of their wits.

"What, two Great Immortals of the Myriad Immortals Alliance are dead?"

"And a True Immortal of Heavenly Flame Dao Field is dead as well?"

"Suspected emergence of a third‑party force..."

Everyone stared at one another.

This news was tremendously shocking.

It was like the sky itself had been torn open.

Two Great Immortals and a True Immortal.

What kind of lineup was that?

As the Heavenly Realm’s upper limits kept descending, they had all learned the status and standing of "Great Immortals."

They knew that a Great Immortal was stronger than a True Immortal and held a higher position.

A single Great Immortal could almost sweep across the entire Boundary Sea.

And now?

Now they were dead.

Not just one—two Great Immortals were dead.

The True Immortal of Heavenly Flame Dao Field was no simple figure either.

Rumor had it his strength was comparable to a Great Immortal.

If that was really the case, then it meant the equivalent of three Great Immortals had been killed.

Even during the fiercest competition among Immortals in the Boundary Sea, three Great Immortals had never fallen in one stroke like this.

If a Great Immortal could not win, they could still escape.

How could they die?

The only Great Immortal who had died previously was besieged by countless Immortals and killed only after a very long battle.

That was the one and only Great Immortal to have fallen.

Even that incident had shaken heaven and earth and sent tremors through the Boundary Sea.

Not to mention that now, the equivalent of three Great Immortals had died at once.

Clearly, something monumental had happened in the Boundary Sea.

A colossal upheaval!

"We will not get involved in this matter. It may be that yet another powerful faction has descended from the Heavenly Realm. And this faction is extremely overbearing—its very first move was to slaughter three Great Immortals. If we get dragged into this, it’s a dead end!"

The Breaking Illusion Ancestor made a snap decision.

This time as well, they had to endure.

Whatever the other side wanted, they would hand over.

"But if they keep extorting us like this a few more times, our Immortal Martial Palace won’t last much longer..."

The Giant Cauldron Ancestor let out a long sigh.

He understood what the Breaking Illusion Ancestor meant.

He also knew that what the Breaking Illusion Ancestor was doing now was the best option.

But he just could not accept it.

All those years of painstaking accumulation, all extorted away by a single word from the other side.

They had been enduring this suffocating humiliation for over a hundred years now.

And it was foreseeable that they would have to continue enduring in the future.

Unless those Upper Immortals from the Heavenly Realm all went back to the Heavenly Realm.

Unless the Boundary Sea returned to what it once was.

At that time, with a Strongest Ancestor Realm sitting in town, the Immortal Martial Palace would fear no one.

But that was just wishful thinking.

To this day, the Treasure of that ancient Golden Immortal had yet to be found.

As long as that was the case, the Immortals would never leave.

"Golden Immortal... As long as we can find a clue to the Golden Immortal, those Immortals will leave the Heavenly Realm."

"Breaking Illusion Ancestor, wasn’t the clue we found last time a Golden Immortal clue?"

An Ancestor Realm asked.

"Swoosh."

At once, everyone’s gaze focused on the Breaking Illusion Ancestor.

So there was such a clue after all.

"A clue..."

The Breaking Illusion Ancestor’s expression turned solemn as he said in a deep voice, "There is indeed a clue, but I did not investigate it, and I don’t dare investigate it."

"If this information leaks, even if we report it to the Myriad Immortals Alliance, we will still die without a doubt!"

"Once the Myriad Immortals Alliance gets their hands on the clue left behind, they won’t give a damn whether the Immortal Martial Palace lives or dies."

"So everyone should just forget this clue ever existed. Not a single hint of it can be allowed to leak..."

The Breaking Illusion Ancestor’s words sent a chill through everyone’s hearts.

They were not stupid; they naturally understood what he meant.

This kind of matter was not something the Immortal Martial Palace could meddle in.

In truth, who didn’t covet a Golden Immortal’s Treasure?

If one obtained it, there was even a chance to soar straight up in a single step.

Those Immortals had gone mad over it; no Cultivator under heaven would remain indifferent.

But their reason was still very clear.

They knew how dangerous this matter was.

They were nothing more than mere Ancestor Realms.

If they dared interfere, so what if they actually found the Golden Immortal Treasure?

In the end it would most likely all come to nothing.

They might even perish body and soul, dragging the Immortal Martial Palace down with them.

Without sufficient strength, even if one had a Golden Immortal clue, one could only remain unmoved.
