After traversing a long stretch of void, Xiao Sheng stopped at the peak of a very high snow-covered mountain.
Han Xiaopao stood behind Xiao Sheng, carefully observing the surroundings, and discovered that this was the Sorrowful Snowfield at the border of the Extre North Domain in the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm. They had not left the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm and were still within its domain.
Han Xiaopao was startled and thought, could it be... the Master is within the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm?
"Domain Master... Does the Master reside here?" Han Xiaopao quietly asked Xiao Sheng.
After speaking, Xiao Sheng gazed into the void before him and murmured, "What are you thinking? How could the Master possibly reside here?"
Upon hearing this, Han Xiaopao nodded and continued to ask, "Then where does the Master live?"
At this, Xiao Sheng also shook his head and said, "I don’t know. Not even I have seen the true face of the Master."
"We are here to et the Great Venerable and the Three Venerables."
"Rember to maintain absolute respect in a while."
Speaking of the "Great Venerable" and the "Three Venerables," Han Xiaopao also began to feel a bit of anticipation.
Because since arriving in this Cyan Origin Immortal Realm and following Zhao Kuo, Han Xiaopao had gradually learned so of the past secret histories of this Immortal Domain.
It is said that a hundred thousand years ago, the Domain Master of the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm was not Xiao Sheng, but another Domain Master with the surna Li. Later... the Li-nad Domain Master was slain, and overnight, the entire Cyan Origin Immortal Realm had a new ruler.
The ones who killed that forr Li-nad Domain Master were the Great Venerable and the Three Venerables.
After taking over the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm, the Great Venerable and the Three Venerables brought about a massive transformation in the realm within just a hundred thousand years, making its overall strength several tis more powerful than before.
Among the current seven Realm Masters, several followed the Great Venerable and the Three Venerables from other Lower-Rank Immortal Realms, including Xiao Sheng... who also ca from a Lower-Rank Immortal Realm to this Cyan Origin Immortal Realm and beca a Domain Master.
And the Great Venerable and the Three Venerables are just two generals under the Master’s command. From this, it can be seen... the height at which the Master stands is unimaginable.
....
The next second, a gust of wind arose, stirring the thick snow on the ground.
Instantly, space solidified at that mont, with snowflakes frozen mid-air, creating a scene like a snowfield painting.
Subsequently, a crack appeared without warning in the void before Xiao Sheng and Han Xiaopao, as if soone had sliced a knife through the canvas.
Two imnsely powerful auras emanated from the spatial rift. Even without approaching, Han Xiaopao felt as if his blood was about to solidify, and even Xiao Sheng’s aura was sowhat subdued.
In the blink of an eye, two figures appeared in front of Han Xiaopao.
The one on the left was dressed in a loose gray robe. Although his face was obscured, his slightly lean figure was apparent.
The one on the right had a slightly taller and sturdier build, with thick black hair and a dignified countenance. Particularly, his eyes resembled the abyss of a sacred dragon, rendering direct gazes intimidating.
As the two figures appeared and retracted their auras, Xiao Sheng and Han Xiaopao could finally exhale a breath of relief; otherwise, under such oppressive pressure, they might have been unable to speak.
"Your subordinate greets the Great Venerable and the Three Venerables."
Xiao Sheng, without any hesitation, clasped his fist and knelt on one knee, his tone filled with excitent and reverence.
Following suit, Han Xiaopao also knelt on one knee, his tone respectful: "This junior greets the Great Venerable and the Three Venerables."
The third nodded slightly, then said to Xiao Sheng, "Rise, have you found the item?"
Xiao Sheng stood up and said to Han Xiaopao behind him, "Bring it up."
Han Xiaopao stepped forward, took a wooden box out of his sleeve, and handed it to the third.
Receiving the wooden box, the third murmured, "Well done."
"This item was found by him; I didn’t assist much," Xiao Sheng explained to the Three Venerables.
Upon hearing this, Han Xiaopao was slightly surprised. He didn’t expect Xiao Sheng to actively give him credit.
Upon hearing this, the gaze of the first and the third fell on Han Xiaopao, noticing that his roots, physical body, and sea of consciousness were all very robust, marking him as a rare, promising talent.
"What is your na?" the third inquired.
"In response to the Three Venerables, this junior is Han Xiaopao, from the Lower Realm."
"I hail from a humble background and was fortunate enough to learn about the item the Master seeks. It’s my pleasure to assist."
Han Xiaopao spoke without leaving any room for error, in a few words subtly indicating that his success was due to luck since the item in question was just an ordinary thing and shouldn’t be overly boasted about, while also subtly hinting at his own humble origins.
Upon learning about Han Xiaopao’s background, the first and the third revealed a look of surprise.
"Not bad, to co from humble beginnings and reach this stage."
"Indeed."
The first uncommonly praised Han Xiaopao twice in succession.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Sheng felt a tidal wave of astonishnt within, knowing that... from this mont, Han Xiaopao’s rise would be unstoppable, being simultaneously noticed by the Great Venerable and the Three Venerables ant an unpredictable future.
"Keep it up, your current cultivation is too low."
"The domain conquest battle is not far off."
"If you can achieve a major breakthrough before then, reaching the Earth Immortal Realm, or even higher to the Celestial Immortal Realm, and earn military achievents in the domain conquest, I will consider transferring you to the Upper-Rank Immortal Realm."
The first slowly instructed Han Xiaopao.
He could see at a glance Han Xiaopao’s potential, having progressed step by step from the humble Lower Realm to this point, indicating that he carried significant luck and was worth nurturing.
"Thank you, Great Venerable, Three Venerables, for valuing ; this junior will strive hard."
Han Xiaopao clasped his fist and said.
He knew clearly that in this world, having a strong backing was crucial, especially in such a potent Immortal Domain, and only by demonstrating one’s value could one advance further in the future.
"Alright, the domain conquest battle is near."
"This ti, our target is a very powerful Upper-Rank Immortal Realm."
"Xiao Sheng, as the Domain Master of the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm, you must always vigilantly oversee preparations for battle; there can’t be the slightest carelessness."
The first advised Xiao Sheng.
"Your subordinate understands, the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm is always prepared and at the ready to follow the directives of the Master and the Great Venerable, Three Venerables!"
Xiao Sheng replied solemnly, word by word.
Upon hearing this, the first and the third nodded and then vanished from sight.
Once they departed, Han Xiaopao stared at the void ahead, his pupils shimring with traces of Immortal Light.....
This is the realm of true powerhouses, where with a re thought, one could decide the life or death of an Immortal Domain, and it was the mighty state Han Xiaopao aspired to attain.
At that mont, for so reason, he suddenly recalled the mysterious man he encountered when he first traversed to this Otherworld, to whom he still owed quite a debt.
After all these years, he hasn’t co searching.
However, even if that wasn’t a dream, and should he co, it wouldn’t matter now. No matter how strong he is, could he surpass the Great Venerable, the Three Venerables, or even the Master?!
He, after all, now had a formidable backing!
The most important thing now was to find ways to enhance his strength, to aim for stellar achievents in the upcoming domain conquest battle, and to continue rising in the ranks.
All past events were just fleeting monts, re frost in the wind.
"Han Xiaopao."
At this mont, Xiao Sheng turned around, looking at Han Xiaopao, his expression becoming serious.
