Chapter 434 - 323: The Dead Ancient Owl (Part 2)
"Wuji..."
"You have finally returned."
Xiang Wuji took Rouyi’s hand and turned to look at that indescribably beautiful face.
Wen Xin.
Or perhaps now, one of the two leaders of the Everlasting Sect, Venerable Mu Xin.
Wen Xin didn’t understand Xiang Wuji’s complex feelings towards Jing Xueqi.
But what she needed to do was try her best to make Xiang Wuji feel better.
"I will always be by your side."
However, Wen Xin didn’t know the mindset of a Divinity Transformation Cultivator had long since become like clear water.
Divinity Transformation Cultivators are not without emotions, they just processed them with utmost rationality.
"Cough cough."
A gentle cough sounded, interrupting their gaze.
A red-clad, spirited woman was looking at the two.
Ye Lianqiu.
"Senior Sister, if outsiders were to see you like this, who knows what trouble they might stir up."
Wen Xin merely laughed softly, saying proudly, "My husband is a Divinity Transformation Cultivator, what have I to fear."
Ye Lianqiu didn’t speak, but looked at Xiang Wuji with complex emotions, hiding something deeper within her eyes.
Now Wen Xin and Ye Lianqiu have become the pillars of the Everlasting Sect.
The tides changed over hundreds of years.
The structure of the Five Great Cultivation Realms, which had not changed for thousands of years, suddenly shifted.
The Wei’e Pavilion fell apart internally.
The Everlasting Sect seized the moment, with Venerable Wen Xin and Venerable Ye Lianqiu, their power greatly enhanced.
Now they have swallowed up most of the Wei’e Cultivation Realm, their strength surging.
The Everlasting Sect is now first-class even within the Moon Dao Giant Cultivation Realm.
The name of the Changming Double Saints has spread to the Moon Dao Cultivation Realm.
Venerable Cyan Lotus manages external affairs, focusing on killing.
Venerable Mu Xin manages internal affairs.
Even though the Everlasting Sect’s old patriarch has fallen and the former Sect Leader never returned from traveling, their prominence is unrivaled.
Xiang Wuji looked at the two women.
He sighed lightly.
Forming a seal with his hands.
White light burst forth in his eyes.
Xiang Wuji’s physical form changed, transforming into Bai Ze, the white-haired lion-headed beast with horns, exuding an aura of divine power and majesty.
"Go."
Xiang Wuji uttered a clear light, shining upon the two.
"I have used Bai Ze Secret Technique to conceal the fate between you two and me..."
"There are some grievances between me and the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance, you all..."
Xiang Wuji sighed.
Ye Lianqiu’s gaze narrowed slightly.
"Wuji..."
Wen Xin’s gaze dimmed slightly.
"The Ten Thousand Dao Alliance?"
"Daring to offend my Senior Sister, once I break through to Divinity Transformation, I will make them pay."
Ye Lianqiu gently placed her hand on the longsword at her waist, exuding murderous intent.
Xiang Wuji’s first response was wondering when these two sisters had gotten so close.
His second response was probing Ye Lianqiu’s potential.
Xiang Wuji was stunned for a moment.
Ye Lianqiu was already at Nascent Soul Perfection.
Xiang Wuji had amassed the resources of the entire Celestial Sea Island and received immense assistance from Bai Wangtian, the Alchemy Master, to reach his current level.
Most importantly, he was the Undefeated Demon Blood Master.
His Demon Blood had awakened, granting him this tremendous talent.
Ye Lianqiu’s potential was so high that without a Spirit Pill Grandmaster in Everlasting Sect, her aptitude might be even higher than his own.
The potential for Divinity Transformation!
Xiang Wuji’s eyes shifted slightly; fortunately, he had cultivated a good relationship with this genius in advance, which might lead to an extra ally in the future.
With the deep foundation of the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance, having more allies to contend with them would naturally be beneficial.
Ye Lianqiu blushed as Xiang Wuji looked at her.
She felt an inexplicable guilt, afraid Xiang Wuji might notice something.
Her initial purpose for breaking ice with Wen Xin was certainly not pure.
Only Ye Lianqiu knew what her true motives were.
Xiang Wuji’s lips moved slightly.
The Mortal Transformation Technique was transmitted into Ye Lianqiu’s ear.
The profound principles within could not be orally transmitted, but Xiang Wuji enabled Ye Lianqiu to avoid some detours.
"Also..."
"After Great Wei collapsed two hundred years ago, Junior Sister Jiang sealed herself in ice, saying she wanted to see you more."
Wen Xin spoke.
"She hasn’t broken through to Nascent Soul yet?"
"Indeed, Junior Sister Jiang... is ultimately missing some opportunities."
"Hmm..."
Xiang Wuji saw Jiang Zhiqing, sealed in ice at the underground ice land of Everlasting Sect.
Jiang Zhiqing was preserved with a special sealing technique, radiating a cool temperament, truly an ice beauty now.
"I will take her somewhere, whether she can reach Nascent Soul depends on her destiny."
Xiang Wuji naturally intended to take Jiang Zhiqing to Heaven-Falling Valley.
To break the pill and form the Nascent Soul, only fate, not pills, could push through forcefully.
Some forces ban pills for this reason.
Pills can create batches of Golden Core Foundation Establishment cultivators, yet those lacking hardening face greater challenges at the breakthrough to Nascent Soul.
Nascent Soul Breaking Pill is useful but only assists and cannot guarantee a one hundred percent breakthrough to Nascent Soul.
Xiang Wuji bid farewell to the women and arrived at the entrance to the Great Wei Blessed Land.
The entrance was completely pierced through, yet no one dared to enter.
Because inside, the Blessed Land had transformed entirely into a Spiritless Land.
The Blessed Land itself had no Spirit Vein, beginning proactive fusion with Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm.
Xiang Wuji stepped inside.
Just as Xiang Wuji’s previous life foresaw through Jiang Zhao’s prediction, there was carnage everywhere.
Though Great Wei wasn’t deemed impressive now with Xiang Wuji’s current perspective.
But this Great Wei had configurations matching the Great Wei Immortal Dynasty...
Xiang Wuji landed on the ground.
He touched the scorched earth.
Which was devastated by extreme True Essence.
Xiang Wuji pinched the scorched earth, his eyes slightly narrowed.
"Very strong!"
Certainly not at the early stage of Divinity Transformation like Xiang Wuji.
It might be mid to late stage Divinity Transformation, most likely late stage.
That old woman of the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance surnamed Ji was only mid-stage Divinity Transformation.
The gap between Divinity Transformation power levels is immense; Xiang Wuji would flee upon seeing her even though he won’t be killed.
Even to defeat her, Xiang Wuji would pay a great price.
"That elder..."
Xiang Wuji dared not think deeply.
Beings of this tier could already sense the summons from the netherworld; Xiang Wuji, though Divinity Transformation, didn’t want to get tangled with such great powers, especially when the enemy’s position was unclear.
"I wonder what happened to Jiang Zhao..."
"Is she still practicing at the Great Wei Immortal Dynasty now?"
"I should go to the last place, oh..."
Xiang Wuji took out the remnant thought of the demon.
"Speak, what news do you have of Elder Ancient Owl."
The demon’s eyes, transformed, looked around in terror, "Upper Immortal sir, I didn’t mean it, if I knew that the esteemed being was your disciple, even with ten thousand guts, I wouldn’t dare to act!"
"Don’t waste words."
"Yes, yes, I am born from a trace of demon thought on Ancient Owl’s corpse..."
"Are you saying! The Ancient Owl Demon Emperor is already dead?!"
Xiang Wuji’s eyes squinted slightly.
From the deeds of Ancient Owl Demon Emperor, this Blood Lord was a cautious person, a survivalist.
Cultivating steadily in resources-limited Heaven-Falling, reaching mid-stage Divinity Transformation before daring confrontation with the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance.
Though eventually outmatched, Ancient Owl Demon Emperor’s multiple contingencies surprised the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance.
People would rather believe Black Heaven perished than Ancient Owl Demon Emperor.
"Where is Elder Ancient Owl’s corpse?!"
The demon trembled, pointing towards the sky, "In... in the void..."
"Ancient Owl practiced the Undying Demon Body to Great Success, neither the void streams nor Great Sun Golden Fire could destroy his corpse."
"His body remains intact in the void!"
The demon promptly said.
One last question.
Who killed Ancient Owl...
Xiang Wuji suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
