He looked around at everyone, "All of you and I are of the second rank, so you must have had personal experiences, the process of ascension is earth-shattering, exposed to the gaze of the world."
But this newly erged second rank is extrely bizarre, the ascension process was completely silent, like a ghost."
Tianxing Old Immortal frowned deeply, his expression solemn, "What do you all think, how did this person manage it?"
Everyone looked at each other, montarily baffled.
Seeing this, Sect Master Baili stroked his beard and said with a smile, "To accomplish such a thing is not impossible."
Tianxing Old Immortal and others brightened up and listened intently.
Sect Master Baili slowly said, "Have you forgotten, there is an artifact in the world that can completely avoid the Heavenly Tribulation and completely conceal one’s aura."
Upon hearing this, Lord of Hundred Birds Cave was the first to react, slapped his thigh and said, "Immortal artifact! That person has an Immortal artifact!"
Everyone’s expressions changed dramatically, utterly shocked.
Cen Shujun gasped, "But Immortal artifacts can only be refined by Daluo Golden Immortals, and are distributed by the Heavenly Court for use in the Lower Realm.
Each Immortal artifact is recorded, none are lost outside, where did that person get an Immortal artifact?"
Tianxing Old Immortal muttered, "Is it possible that a Daluo Golden Immortal secretly gave an Immortal artifact to that person without us knowing?"
Sect Master Baili waved his hand and said, "Such a possibility is absolutely impossible, Immortal artifacts are Holy Artifacts that can interfere with Heavenly Dao Laws and are strictly controlled by the Heavenly Court.
Bound by heavenly rules, even if a Daluo Golden Immortal wanted to do such a thing, they couldn’t."
Tianxing Old Immortal took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "So, that person’s Immortal artifact didn’t co from the Heavenly Court, where did it co from?"
Everyone looked at Sect Master Baili, hoping he could provide an answer.
But Sect Master Baili just shook his head, sighed, and said, "An Immortal artifact is not the possession of whoever obtains it; the fact that this person could gain its approval shows their extraordinary ability. Finding such an individual is not sothing we can just decide to do."’
Tianxing Old Immortal was dumbstruck, speaking anxiously, "Old Sect Master, you are a First Grade Golden Immortal, even you can do nothing?"’
Sect Master Baili retorted, "If I find that person, what do you intend to do?"’
Tianxing Old Immortal resolutely said, "Of course, kill them, they must not be allowed to appropriate so much luck."’
Sect Master Baili continued, "What if that person is a disciple of my Haoran Heavenly Sect?"
Tianxing Old Immortal was imdiately choked, stamring, "A disciple of Haoran Heavenly Sect, I naturally dare not kill, but that person deliberately hides their identity, even from Haoran Heavenly Sect, clearly with malicious intent, we must be wary!"
Wisdom Taoist spoke, "This person sneakily ascended to second rank, stirring up a storm beyond imagination, we’ll most likely be drawn into it, even the people of your Haoran Heavenly Sect won’t escape.
So, now we’re like grasshoppers tied to the sa rope, with aligned interests, we should cooperate, find that person first and then deal with them, how about it?"
Lord of Hundred Birds Cave responded, "I agree."
Uncle Wu and others remained silent, acquiescing nonetheless.
Sect Master Baili smiled and said, "Alright, I permit you to use all ans to find this second rank."
Uncle Wu couldn’t contain himself and reminded, "Senior Brother, if I rember correctly, Immortal artifacts have a characteristic, as long as they encounter other Immortal artifacts, they can perceive each other."
Sect Master Baili nodded, "Indeed."
Uncle Wu continued, "As long as we find several people with Immortal artifacts and let them patrol everywhere, they will eventually discover that person."
Sect Master Baili squinted his eyes slightly, with aning in his words, "This thod is feasible, but it will take a long ti, while the storm might co soon."
Everyone’s faces tightened, their hearts a mix of emotions.
Soon after...
Cen Shujun and Ma Zhao’an flew into the sky, traveling through the air.
Their original plan was to report to Sect Master Baili about Fang Zhixing’s situation.
However, the sudden appearance of a second rank is clearly a larger issue, disrupting their plans, so they gave up.
Ma Zhao’an thought for a mont, still very curious, and said seriously, "Where is Fang Zhixing, I want to et him, see what he’s actually like."
Cen Shujun also wanted to know whether he had misjudged, so the two turned in another direction.
Soon, Ma Zhao’an looked at a wild field overgrown with weeds, and said in surprise, "This place is very desolate. Are you sure Fang Zhixing lives here?"
Cen Shujun nodded, "I personally recorded it, no mistake."
As he spoke, he took out a small bell and lightly shook it three tis.
Jingle Jingle~
The magical sound of the bell spread out, dispersing into invisible ripples.
Suddenly, a series of ripples appeared on the open ground not far away.
An invisible array was revealed.
Cen Shujun’s lips curled up as he called out, "Is Guest Elder Fang here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the array opened a door, and a voice ca out, "Ah, it’s Senior Brother Cen, please co in quickly."
Cen Shujun and Ma Zhao’an exchanged a glance, braced themselves, and stepped into the array.
Soon, they entered a spacious cave dwelling, which was empty inside, lacking any proper living supplies or even a beautiful maid.
"This..."
The two were a bit dumbfounded.
One must know, the cave dwellings of Golden Immortals are nothing but luxurious and grand, akin to the grandeur of the Crystal Palace, filled with immortal energy and fairies fluttering about, enchanting the dreams of mortals.
Fang Zhixing’s cave dwelling was more like an abandoned wasteland.
At this mont, Fang Zhixing ca out alone, smiling, "Welco to my humble abode, the two of you."
Cen Shujun looked around inside and tutted, "Guest Elder Fang, you certainly live a life of simplicity and restraint!"
Fang Zhixing quickly replied, "I don’t like noise and am not good at decoration, sorry to disappoint the both of you, please, take a seat."
The three of them sat around a stone table.
Fang Zhixing took out a pot of wine, but there were no wine cups, so he used enchantnt to form two ice cups, filling each of them.
"This is old wine from the Mu Chen Immortal Domain, please have a taste," Fang Zhixing raised his cup.
Cen Shujun and Ma Zhao’an didn’t stand on ceremony, downing their drinks in one go, unable to help but praise the fine wine.
Indeed it was good wine, a vintage stored in the Huangzhong Palace for thousands of years, how could it not be?
Fang Zhixing looked at Ma Zhao’an and asked, "And who might this Senior Brother be?"
Cen Shujun quickly introduced, "He is my junior brother Ma Zhao’an, also one of the Sect Master’s True Disciples."
Fang Zhixing understood and respectfully said, "I’ve heard much about you, a pleasure indeed."
Ma Zhao’an said nothing, rely nodding in greeting.
Fang Zhixing continued pouring the wine, casually asking, "Did the two of you co by surprise, is there anything you need?"
Cen Shujun imdiately said, "There’s sothing we’d like to ask Guest Elder Fang’s help with."
Fang Zhixing straightened up, "Speak freely."
Cen Shujun carefully explained, "Recently, a heavenly creature descended to the lower realm, causing chaos in our Haoran Immortal Domain. Junior Brother Ma and I plan to go hunt it down and hope Guest Elder Fang could lend us a hand."
Fang Zhixing’s eyes flashed, hesitantly asked, "That heavenly creature’s strength is...?"
Cen Shujun replied, "Around the Fourth Grade."
Fang Zhixing frowned deeply, showing difficulty, spreading his hands, "My abilities are humble, I’m afraid I won’t be much help..."
Ma Zhao’an couldn’t help interrupting, "Didn’t you previously kill a Fourth Grade Elder of the Mu Chen Immortal Sect?"
Fang Zhixing was taken aback for a mont, then slowly said, "To be honest with you two, that Fourth Grade Elder was indeed killed by , but when I slew him, he was already gravely injured and on the brink of death."
Cen Shujun imdiately said, "That still proves your strength isn’t weak. Moreover, joining us ans just assisting from the side, we won’t let you risk yourself."
Ma Zhao’an chid in, "If you encounter danger, you can flee anyti, surely that’s alright? Once it’s done, I’ll give you three Luck Talismans."
He pulled out a Luck Talisman and slapped it on the table, generously saying, "This is the deposit, the remaining two Luck Talismans I’ll give you when we return."
Seeing this, Fang Zhixing was moved, "Then I’ll respectfully comply with your request."
Ma Zhao’an imdiately stood up, grinning, "No ti to lose, let’s set off now."
