Wang Jixuan also said, "So follow the mandate of the Heavenly Dao, naturally there are those who look unfavorably upon it; that’s roughly how it is."
Zheng Shiduo wanted to speak but hesitated.
He originally intended to remind Wang Jixuan that there is no free lunch, and these Immortal seniors wouldn’t help for no reason.
But then Zheng Shiduo thought again...
Does Wang need his reminder?
Usually it’s Wang giving him pointers.
A slight "eh" sound ca from the side.
"Han Xiao?"
Han Xiao, who was grinning happily, suddenly froze, frowning as he surveyed the elderly man over there.
Elder Shao’s avatar naturally had changed his appearance and Qi, but upon hearing that voice, Han Xiao couldn’t keep his composure.
"Senior Shao?"
"Hahaha! What brings you here, kid?"
Elder Shao’s avatar stood up and eyed Han Xiao for a few monts before dawning realization spread across his face.
Elder Shao laughed, "Was it Lao Chang who sent you here?"
"Ah, yes," Han Xiao instantly beca much more restrained, lowered his head, and made a Daoist bow to Elder Shao.
No choice—in the Immortal Realm, Alchemists and Artifact Refiners often held positions beyond their own cultivation due to their skills. This Elder Shao, an Artifact Refining Master, was a renowned figure in certain regions of the Immortal Realm, frequently appearing at major gatherings of loose cultivators and being courted by various factions.
Wang Jixuan looked left, then right.
He actually wanted to ask if he could forgo the three million Spirit Stones.
However, as he was about to speak, Master Wang swallowed his words.
He couldn’t be too petty; those Spirit Stones could be seen as a way to befriend experts in the Immortal Realm.
"Senior Shao, why are you here?"
"This is my disciple," Elder Shao pointed at Wang Jixuan and said:
"His talent in Artifact Refining is exceptional, so I stayed in the Lower Realm to teach him the Path of Artifact Refining, but then the Heavenly Dao suddenly intervened."
"So Brother Wang is actually Senior Shao’s disciple!"
Han Xiao clasped his hands and said:
"I apologize for my lack of respect... If you later refine so excellent treasures, don’t forget about your elder brother, hahaha!"
Wang Jixuan nodded in agreent and then explained to Elder Shao about the troubles on Earth and his plan.
Upon hearing that the Eight Immortals of the Firmant were here, Elder Shao’s expression did not relax; instead, it beca a bit troubled.
There were many complicated intricacies within.
Although Elder Shao was acquainted with Han Xiao and the others, he was, after all, an expert of Tianluo, whereas Han Xiao’s eight siblings were working for the Thousand Generation Alliance, which had old feuds with the Dark Sect, and its relationship with Tianluo was not particularly harmonious.
——Personal relations are one thing, official matters another.
Han Xiao and the eight had co to take Wang Zheng away;
This was sothing Elder Shao did not wish to see.
The cave fell into a subtle silence.
Four people, four different thoughts, and among them, the most straightforward and kind-hearted was probably... Zheng Shiduo.
Han Xiao took a half-step back voluntarily and clasped his hands, saying, "Elder Shao, let’s not delay here. Brother Wang doesn’t want the Dark Sect mbers to ruin his holand, so why don’t we deal with this batch of Dark Sect mbers first?"
"Well." Elder Shao nodded slowly, "Since you all are helping, this avatar of mine can just take a break; there’s a chaotic situation in the Immortal Realm keeping very busy."
Elder Shao looked at Wang Jixuan, and said earnestly:
"Disciple, don’t worry. The Eight Immortals of the Firmant are not evil people, and their allegiance, the Thousand Generation Alliance, often does so good deeds in the Immortal Realm.
"However, the Thousand Generation Alliance doesn’t believe in the Heavenly Dao and advocates for cultivators to be free and unrestrained, having many grudges with the Dark Sect.
"They have co looking for you probably because of the phrase ’Immortal Forbidden Wang Zheng, who destroys the Dark Sect Heavenly Dao.’
"You can ask them to help you resolve a few more crises; as for the compensation, I will handle it for them in the Immortal Realm."
With that said, Elder Shao’s avatar turned into a stream of light and entered Wang Jixuan’s sleeve.
Wang Daoist and Han Xiao exchanged glances.
Han Xiao smiled wryly and said, "Brother Wang, that’s not quite fair, you only told about that senior..."
Wang Jixuan hurriedly blinked.
Han Xiao got the hint, realizing Wang Jixuan probably hadn’t ntioned to Elder Shao about the existence of the expert practicing the Ti Dao, and decided not to continue.
"Let’s go quickly!"
Han Xiao waved his hand grandly, saying with a fierce smile:
"With Elder Shao as a guarantee, you need not worry that us eight siblings are villains."
"However, since Elder Shao has spoken, it wouldn’t be appropriate for us eight juniors to not ask for a reward. Regarding the Dark Sect mbers in this realm, shall I help you eradicate them?"
Wang Jixuan calmly nodded.
That would be perfect.
...
Even though the Eight Immortals of the Firmant and Elder Shao’s avatar were present, Wang Jixuan remained cautious.
He, along with Zheng Shiduo, ticulously arranged the area, and headed to the ’Immortal Spirit Road Confluence Point’ near Earth, ditating quietly on the path that Master Bao Yan would lead the Dark Sect mbers through.
The internal area of the Immortal Spirit Road does not allow fighting, and even a slightly intense mana collision would cause a temporary collapse of the Immortal Spirit Road.
Wang Jixuan prepared a retreat path.
He was now just bait, waiting for the fish to appear.
Thus, he waited for about two days and nights.
The Eight Immortals of the Firmant were quite leisurely, hiding in normal space-ti, drinking, chatting, playing chess and cards; Zheng Shiduo had seamlessly integrated, bringing new gas to the Eight Immortals.
— The gas referred to are Pai Gow, Mahjong, and Dou Dizhu, normal recreational activities.
Wang Jixuan, with a sudden intuitive insight, opened his eyes from cultivation and looked towards the Immortal Spirit Path ahead, seeing streams of flowing light.
He proactively removed his camouflage, revealing his Qi, and let out a long cry.
"Bao Yan, you old thief!"
Master Bao Yan, who was rushing forward, abruptly lifted his head upon hearing the shout.
Those flowing lights suddenly halted, transforming into dozens of large and small Cloud Boat Tower Ships, on which there were more than three hundred figures.
The Dark Sect mbers hadn’t just deployed a single group of forces;
They seed to have mobilized a large number of personnel from neighboring areas.
Their objective, naturally, was to use Earth to compel Wang Jixuan to appear.
Among these individuals, Wang Jixuan detected more than a dozen energy waves similar to Elder Shao.
Visitors from the Immortal Realm.
But they were all avatars or possessions.
"Hahaha!"
Master Bao Yan laughed heartily:
"Searching high and low in vain, only to find without effort! Wang Zheng, oh Wang Zheng, just as those ants said, you cannot let go of the land you were born in!"
"Rest assured, today I will catch you and take you back, and then I’ll have people stationed on Earth."
"Then, you won’t dare defy us!"
Wang Jixuan sneered: "Both are Hall Masters of branch departnts, but why does Yin Lin Hall Master’s deanor and cultivation surpass yours so greatly? Do you not even reflect on this?"
Master Bao Yan squinted slightly: "Now, you must only have a sharp tongue left. The Tianluo forces have been stalled by us; what you rely on is rely that avatar from the Immortal Realm... Today, how do you plan to escape?"
"Escape?"
Wang Jixuan’s palm held a Jade Talisman, which trembled lightly, revealing a vortex behind him.
He said calmly: "I’m just here to tell you, even if you shatter Earth, it ans nothing to but makes loathe you more... Fellow, thirty years East of the river, thirty years West, don’t think I cannot rise again. Otherwise, fellow, why do you not ponder, why the Dark Sect Heavenly Dao fears a Tribulation Crossing Realm cultivator like so much."
"Attack!"
Master Bao Yan shouted loudly.
Even before his shout had fully descended, dozens of figures lunged towards Wang Jixuan.
The entire Immortal Spirit Road was filled with various flowing lights, seemingly crowded.
Wang Jixuan smiled composedly, as a rope suddenly appeared behind him, extending from the vortex and gently pulling him away.
In the next mont!
A sword light suddenly swept across, causing an entire section of the Immortal Spirit Road to abruptly collapse, as a colorful curtain was cleaved open.
Subsequently, a broken large bell softly vibrated, immobilizing these hundreds of figures instantly.
Then, they watched in astonishnt, as eight powerful auras erged from all directions.
Heavenly Immortals, Originals, not Avatars.
"Quickly retreat!"
Master Bao Yan shouted loudly.
An Immortal avatar hiding among the Dark Sect mbers roared in anger: "Damn you! Your Tianluo does not abide by the rules! Then do not bla our Dark Sect for being rciless!"
Sword light flashed, flute sounds played.
From all directions, the void suddenly lifted a blue tsunami, and these hundreds of bodies possessing Unification, Tribulation Crossing, and Mahayana abilities, powerless, were effortlessly engulfed by the tsunami.
The disparity here, akin to Heaven and Earth.
