Looking at the elated Mu Xingzhi, Li Cheng teased with a smile, âSect Master, your timing is perfect. Let me introduce them to you.â
âThis is my newly accepted disciple, Qing Yun, and these two are his parents!
Mu Xingzhiâs face stiffened with surprise. In the past, accepting disciples was a formal affair.
But now? Heâd even brought the discipleâs parents along.
What was he planning?
âThis is the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, Mu Xingzhi. Qing
Yun, meet your Sect Master Brother,â Li Cheng said.
Qing Yun performed a respectful salute, âI pay my respects to Sect Master Brother!â
âSect Leader Mu, we are honored to meet you! I am Qing Yunâs father, Qingxuan.â Qingxuan made a fist and palm salute.
Mu Xingzhi quickly waved his hands and responded with a salute of his own:
âFriend Qing, you are too courteous!â
âSect Master, I will be taking them to the sect. From now on, Iâll rely on you to take care of them,â Li Cheng said with a smile.
Mu Xingzhi understood Li Chengâs plans and nodded seriously, âLittle Uncle Master, rest assured, I can see that friend Qing and his wife carry Immortal Bodies. It will likely be mere days before they can reenter the Immortal Realm, and Iâm afraid weâll need friend Qingâs help by then.â
The latter part was said to Qing Yunâs parents.
Qing Yunâs parents could also tell that Mu Xingzhi was a mighty Loose
Immortal, his words merely politeness. After all, with Mu Xingzhiâs cultivation, how could he possibly need their help?
Moreover, those who were setting up the formation not far away were all
powerful Immortals.
Was this the strength of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect?
Quite astonishing indeed!
Everyone thought the most powerful were gathered in the Central Continent, little did they know, the Southern Domain was not to be underestimated.
Li Cheng obtained a Space-Breaking Shuttle and steered it into the spatial wormhole.
Inside the Space-Breaking Shuttle, Qing Yun curiously observed the colorful world outside, while Qingxuan and his wife exchanged surprised glances, both noticing the astonishment in each otherâs eyes.
There were too many things that surprised them!
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan appeared and gazed through the Space-Breaking Shuttleâs window, sighing to himself, wondering about something.
âSenior Tianyuan, whatâs wrong?â Li Cheng asked.
âNothing much, just now I heard your plan to continue traveling around the Central Continent,â Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said.
Li Cheng glanced at Qing Yunâs parents and nodded, âJust a casual stroll.â Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said no more, displaying no emotion, but instead looked toward Qing Yunâs parents, âDid Emperor Qing leave any words or clues before his disappearance?â
Qingxuan shook his head, âNo, not even the Pen of Life and Death, which returned on its own.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan pondered and then gave a bitter smile; in his current state, he could do nothing.
âWeâve considered the possibility that our father may have left some clues in the Pen of Life and Death, but after many years of research, weâve discovered nothing,â Qingxuan added.
âOh? Let Li Cheng have a look,â Immortal Emperor Tianyuan quickly said. Qingxuan handed the Pen of Life and Death to Li Cheng, who looked puzzledly at Immortal Emperor Tianyuan. If they had studied it for years without success, what could he see?
He hesitated for a moment after taking the Pen of Life and Death and finally decided to infuse it with the Life Law and Law of Death to see if it would react.
The next moment, a rich aura of life and death emerged from the Pen!
âI didnât expect Brother Li to carry both of these Laws, activating the Pen of Life and Death!â Qingxuan inwardly clicked his tongue in amazement.
The aura of life and death that surged from the Pen grew more and more abundant, and it didnât dissipate oddly enough but instead converged above the Pen, slowly coalescing into a picture!
More accurately, it was a map!
The map covered an extremely wide range, marking over a hundred domains, including the South Mysterious Territory!
âThe South Mysterious Territory is where we were just located. On the map, it is merely the most marginal territory. Crossing these twelve territories will bring us to the location indicated by the map,â said Immortal Emperor Tianyuan.
There was a red dot marked near the center of the map, within the Divine Palace Region. To reach there, one would need to pass through twelve territories.
âCould Emperor Qing be there?â Li Cheng asked.
Qingxuan appeared somewhat excited, âI never expected that my father really left clues behind. However, back then the Pen of Life and Death flew back to the Immortal Realm, but the clues my father left were in the Kunlun Realm.â
âIt seems he arrived in the Kunlun Realm and discovered something in the Divine Palace Region, using the Pen of Life and Death to send a message. Yet all these years, I have discovered nothing.â
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan nodded, âItâs very possible that he is trapped in
the Divine Palace Region!â
Trapped?
Could Emperor Qing, no less powerful than Immortal Emperor Tianyuan, be trapped in the Kunlun Realm?
But considering the depths of the Kunlun Realm, it was indeed a possibility.
With a somewhat excited clenched fist, Qingxuan said, âWhat a pity that my current cultivation is limited. If it were like before, I could have made an attempt.â
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan glanced at Qingxuan, âEven if you were at your peak cultivation, what could you do if your father is trapped? Going there would just add to your fatherâs troubles. Leave this matter to Li Cheng.â
Li Cheng was stunned. The Immortal Emperor was trapped, and he was just a little Golden Immortal.
Had Immortal Emperor Tianyuan forgotten his cultivation level? Was he confusing him for an Immortal Emperor?
âWhatâs with that expression? No confidence?â Immortal Emperor Tianyuan saw Li Chengâs shocked face and could not help but laugh.
Li Cheng cleared his throat, âSenior, you think too highly of me. Iâm just a Golden Immortal.â
Pointing to the map, Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said, âTraveling from the South Mysterious Territory to the Divine Palace Region without utilizing a Transmission Array would take several years. In a few years, you will no longer be just a Golden Immortal.â
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan had a deep understanding of Li Chengâs cultivation speed!
With enough resources and the time flow acceleration of the Seven Mystery Tower, it wouldnât be impossible to reach the level of an Immortal Emperor in just a few years in the outside world.
Li Cheng was speechless; he only had a little over twenty million Immortal Stones. Advancing to a Daluo Golden Immortal was not a problem, but to go a step further, these resources were clearly insufficient.
âSince youâre going to travel anyway, head towards the Divine Palace Region. Emperor Qing must have discovered something there,â Immortal Emperor Tianyuan speculated aloud.
Li Cheng pondered and then nodded. After all, since he intended to journey, it didnât matter where. So he decided to head toward the Divine Palace Region!
If he could gather more disciples along the way, that would also be beneficial.
However, sending disciples back and forth to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was troublesome. Perhaps, he should craft another Immortal Artifact of Law!
After all, the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle lacked no Universe Mystery Stones. Feeling Li Chengâs gaze, the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle tensed up, thinking, this is definitely not going to be good news!
âWhat are you nervous about? Iâm just giving you a glance,â said Li Cheng casually, then turning to Qingxuan with a smile, âImmortal Emperor Tianyuan is right, when we arrive at the Divine Palace Region, I will take a look.â Qingxuan hurriedly bowed with a fist, âI thank you in advance, Brother Li. Take the Pen of Life and Death with you; when youâre within a certain range, it will surely lead the way.â
Li Cheng nodded and accepted the Pen of Life and Death.
Coming back to his senses, Immortal Emperor Tianyuan suddenly said, âCould Emperor Qing have discovered an ancient battlefield? He had a great interest in ancient battlefields.â
Ancient battlefields represented the end of an era, with rumors that even deities perished there in numbersâwho wouldnât be interested?
âThe so-called ancient battlefield is not in the Divine Palace Region. I have been there, so Iâm very clear about that!â Suddenly, the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle spoke up.
