Chi ng scrutinized Wang Xuan, astonished that a young man would dare show such intense hostility towards him. After all, the Hades Blood Sect was one of the strongest factions in the world beyond the veil.
The founder of the sect, Hades Blood, was a supre figure in that realm, a true overlord. His disciples, all at the level of true immortals, were not to be trifled with lightly by many.
The top-notch experts among the immortals were among the few who wielded significant power in their respective realms.
The Hades Blood Sect's realm was not directly connected to the New World, but secret pathways linked different realms, and they were preparing to descend on this unique life-bearing planet.
"It's you!" Chi ng realized. Soone had impersonated him days ago, acting arrogantly and plotting against Wang Xuan, leaving Chi ng to bear the brunt of the bla.
Wang Xuan eyed him skeptically. Was this really the sa person? It didn't seem so.
"Young friend Wang, I've been looking for you. I was frad, and we're natural allies in this situation. We should join forces to find and deal with our common enemy," Chi ng hurriedly explained, laying out various suspicions and insisting he was not involved in the incident.
His emotional agitation was evident, the true bones wrapped in his blood-red figure trembling with rage as he vehently denied any involvent.
"Did he also cross the veil to co here?" Wang Xuan asked.
"Yes!" Chi ng nodded, eager to collaborate with Wang Xuan to hunt down the perpetrator.
Wang Xuan remained silent, unsure if Chi ng was being frad or if there was a third party stirring trouble.
Chi ng, on his part, probably hoped to use Wang Xuan's artifacts to eliminate his adversary. If they targeted the wrong person, they would simply continue the search, with Chi ng planning to ally with Wang Xuan for the hunt.
"Let's join forces," Chi ng suggested.
Wang Xuan looked at him calmly, replying, "We'll wait for the truth."
Chi ng was at a loss for words. He had thought Wang Xuan, brimming with resentnt, would eagerly join the hunt for the culprit. Instead, all he got was a non-committal response.
Chi ng had hoped to use Wang Xuan as a tool to eliminate a formidable enemy first.
Wang Xuan said nothing more. He definitely wouldn't get involved, knowing that the real culprit was sowhere beyond the veil, although their na and faction remained unknown to him.
Both Wang Xuan and Chi ng nodded in agreent, deciding to set aside their differences for the mont.
The conch horn sounded, echoing across the night sky, its Buddha light engulfing the Qin residence. Many heard the grand Buddhist chant, resonating with a profound spiritual force.
Nearby, Chen Yongjie, draped in a monk's robe and holding the conch, resembled an enlightened monk. Golden scriptures swirled around him, the symbols spreading across the void.
Chi ng's eyes flickered with blood-red light, several tis tempted to seize the Buddhist treasure. But ultimately, he restrained himself, recognizing that the conch was already partially refined.
"To think that soone in this era can still grasp the true essence of Buddhism," he shook his head in wonder.
The descendants of the immortals and the demon race looked on enviously but helplessly. The conch was perfectly in sync with Chen Yongjie, their golden symbols resonating in unison, deterring anyone from forcefully seizing it.
Chen Yongjie approached with the formidable weapon, exerting a significant deterrent effect on so.
"I can't suppress my advancent much longer; I'm about to ascend to the next level," he communicated telepathically to Wang Xuan. After absorbing the dicinal soil, his cultivation had been steadily increasing.
However, he viewed this rapid growth with apprehension. His ti in the dicinal realm was too short, and he was uncertain about his future path. Ancient thods had their flaws, and he had yet to find a mature and powerful path to immortality.
"Find the seeds of the Nine Tribulations Lotus quickly and plant them in your spiritual land," Wang Xuan advised. "Absorbing the essence of the dicinal soil will help you, but it's also building up for a stronger breakthrough. Once the seeds sprout, you'll have to decide on your path and break through."
Wang Xuan pulled him aside to discuss the altar in the realm beyond the veil, preparing for an imminent battle.
"That's excessively malicious, using your flesh and blood for growth and stripping away all your achievents," Chen Yongjie comnted gravely.
After a private discussion, Chen Yongjie dimd his Buddha light and discreetly left to make his preparations.
In the Qin family courtyard, the descendants of the immortals watched regretfully as Chen Yongjie and the conch disappeared. The treasure was indeed precious, attracting many contenders.
"Brother Wang, would you like to join us?" Kong Yun invited. The descendants of the immortals planned to tour the new moon aboard a spaceship, curious about all the novel aspects of the New World.
Inwardly, Wang Xuan was keen to interact with them. Surprisingly harmless and different from what he had anticipated, he hoped to learn more about this group.
But Wang Xuan really didn't have ti right now; he had to deal with the life-threatening issue of the celestial fetus.
Otherwise, he assured them, he would have joined them on the ship to see if anyone dared to bombard the group along with him.
That night, Wang Xuan left and went straight to the Song family to et Song Yun. He secretly traded so Earth Immortal Spring with old Song, who was almost stupefied by shock.
After drinking a portion of the Earth Immortal Spring, Song Yun's hair roots darkened, and the wrinkles on his face rapidly diminished, showing a far stronger effect than Wang Xuan's previous life-prolonging efforts.
After the pleasant visit, Wang Xuan took the Golden Tree, leaving behind so "immortal liquid" for Song Yun. Without the Divine Slaying Banner, Wang Xuan wouldn't have even dared to approach the tree, as the golden birds on it could kill a person's soul!
He studied it all night. It would take ti to refine, and he needed to protect himself first before activating it. This object, once handled by the strongest sorcerers of ancient tis, was no less powerful than the Soul Locking Bell.
The next morning, Wang Xuan went to the Zhong family to borrow the ash-covered pool, which seed to be the Pool of Reincarnation. Trading for this item would be difficult, as old Zhong was also a transcendent being and unlikely to agree.
The Zhong family had many visitors, mainly because of their rich collection of ancient artifacts that attracted beings from beyond the veil.
Recently, the relics in the Zhong family's secret repository, including the sarira and the incorruptible corpses, had disturbed their peace.
"I never thought our family's repository could be so lively. One night, I passed by and saw bones colliding, sarira hitting bells, and a creature with silver fur sticking a hand out of a coffin..." Zhong Cheng lanted to Wang Xuan upon seeing him. Their repository had "co to life," bustling with activity every night.
Now, with a group of flesh-and-blood young people outside, all with transcendent powers and persuasive words, it was overwhelming.
"Old Wang, let tell you, we're leaving. We're implenting the Tai Chu Plan. We have a premonition that sothing big is going to happen on Xing Xing!" Zhong Cheng revealed their secret.
"Leaving so decisively, so soon?" Wang Xuan was taken aback. "I wanted to help you build foundations. If I survive, there will be results in a few days."
Zhong Cheng was astonished. "Really? Actually, we also need a few days to wrap things up. Before leaving, I'll also give you a big gift!"
He added that it would be great if Wang Xuan could leave with them.
"I'm here to borrow the Pool of Reincarnation!" Wang Xuan stated his purpose and soon t Zhong Changming. After a brief private talk and so negotiations, Zhong Lao Er's bald head began sprouting fine black hair roots, and the deal was struck.
Wang Xuan also privately gave Zhong Cheng two jars of Earth Immortal Spring for him and his sister to share.
Having confird that Earth Immortal Spring couldn't help transcendent beings survive the mythological decline, Wang Xuan planned to give away most of it soon, sharing with acquaintances.
Wang Xuan's visit to the Zhong family's secret repository was indeed astonishing. The array of ancient artifacts was staggering, with piles of artifacts from pre-Qin sorcerers, sacred items from Taoist ancestral temples, important Buddhist instrunts, and various unknown ancient objects, including unique collections like coffins and well-preserved bodily remains of Bodhisattvas.
Upon entering, Wang Xuan maintained his focus, ignoring the strange artifacts and directly moving a dusty, grey pool.
The repository stirred with activity, but no one dared to extend their spiritual bodies, fearing their souls might be captured.
"Even with a physical body, facing this pool for too long is dangerous. They say it can send people to rebirth, but who knows where the souls it devours end up?"
Whispers echoed in the repository. Despite their envy, none interfered.
They knew the ashen pool was too perilous, not sothing ordinary individuals could handle. It was a divine item intended for suprely powerful beings.
"It's said that whoever takes the Pool of Reincarnation from the human world will et an early demise."
Wang Xuan now faced a major faction backed by an unparalleled powerhouse. He believed the more dangerous an item, the more reliable it could be in a crisis.
As Zhong Cheng accompanied Wang Xuan out of the secret repository area, they saw several young n and won in the distance. Among them, a particularly distinguished man exuded an air of immortal grace, engaging in lively conversation with Zhong Qing.
"That man is Cao Qingyu. He seems gentle and distinguished, but there's sothing off about his gaze. He appeared only yesterday and is here again today, always approaching my sister. Others seem to fear him, and he holds significant sway among the descendants of the immortals," Zhong Cheng shared.
"He does seem off. His spiritual energy is continuously expanding, subtly influencing how others perceive him," Wang Xuan noted.
Zhong Cheng grew concerned. "No wonder I feel he's agreeable up close but find his gaze invasive and alluring from a distance."
From afar, Wang Xuan flicked his finger, unleashing a burst of terrifying golden flas. A thunderous sound caught the attention of the superhuman beings, though ordinary people remained unaffected. The abrupt action drew Cao Qingyu's attention.
"Little Qing, is that your friend?" Cao Qingyu asked.
"Over here, Wang Xuan," Zhong Qing called out, waving him over.
"Don't use your spiritual realm to manipulate mortals, influencing their perceptions," Wang Xuan said calmly.
"So it's you. Interesting," Cao Qingyu nodded. His robust vitality and the faint aura of rosy clouds radiating from him exerted imnse pressure on other superhuman beings.
This indicated that he was likely close to the transcendent Xiaoyao realm. Wang Xuan furrowed his brows, sensing that Cao Qingyu might be even stronger than Kong Yun.
Ordinary people were unable to see their energetic states and remained unaffected.
Kong Yun's single fingertip strike could send Huang Ming flying six or seven ters away. Currently, even without utilizing mystical treasures, no superhuman on earth could match this level of physical prowess.
"Let's et again next ti. I have so matters to attend to today," Cao Qingyu said with a smile, nodding at them before taking his leave.
Wang Xuan watched his departing figure, aware of Cao Qingyu's formidable strength. In a world where mystical treasures were destined to dim, individuals like him would beco exceedingly dangerous.
"I'll co back in a few days," Wang Xuan also excused himself. With various issues erging on New Star, and the intentions of those returning from behind the veil unclear, he had to prioritize surviving his imdiate peril.
Subsequently, Wang Xuan discreetly visited several families, conducting a few transactions. He felt he was adequately prepared for whatever was to co, ready to see who would outmaneuver whom in this deadly ga.
