Chapter 2235: Volume 11: Descent of the True Immortal, Chapter 2216: Gathering
"It turns out Fellow Daoist Baohua already has a countermeasure. In this way, entering that Place of Origin Seal should have a few chances of success. But I don't know how many other helpers from other realms will arrive for this gathering," the bald strong man turned his eyes and asked suddenly.
"Up to now, except for the Black Flame Realm, other realms adjacent to our Holy Realm have sent people again. Although they cannot be compared with the number sent the first time, there are more than forty Grand Ascension existences. Among them, the most powerful Heaven Crow Realm even sent nine Grand Ascension existences in one go, and even the legendary Copper Crow Old Man has come to this realm personally," Xie Lian replied with a smile.
"Copper Crow Old Man, could it be the famous Copper Crow among the Four Birds! How could he come here personally?" The bald strong man gasped upon hearing this.
"It seems Brother Jin has also heard of this old man's name. This is not strange. However, the reason why Copper Crow came to the Holy Realm personally is said to be because among the foreign powerhouses trapped in the Place of Origin Seal earlier, one is a direct descendant that Copper Old Man values extremely, so he had to come out personally," Xie Lian replied with a trace of sarcasm.
"With the cultivation reaching the level of Copper Crow Old Man, actually taking risks for a mere descendant, this is really somewhat beyond expectation," the bald strong man scratched his bald head and sighed.
"It is said that Copper Crow Old Man only has this one direct descendant, and I don't know how much effort and rare materials he spent to push him to the Grand Ascension realm, so he naturally cannot sit by and watch him be in danger," this time, Xie Lian replied indifferently.
"That is true. Thinking about it carefully, if I also had a Grand Ascension descendant, I would naturally value him immensely," Jin Cha blinked and laughed.
"Since Fellow Daoist Xie Lian has explained everything, then Brother Crab and I will definitely participate in the gathering not long from now. When the time comes, I will trouble Fellow Daoist Xie Lian to notify us," Han Li thought silently for a while, then said with a long breath.
"This is natural. When the departure date arrives, I will personally send a letter to the three Fellow Daoists," Xie Lian agreed without hesitation.
"Then the three of us will not disturb you any longer, I will take my leave first," Han Li nodded, stood up without any hesitation, and said.
Crab Daoist and Yin Yue followed him, appearing to follow Han Li's lead.
"Why is Brother Han so impatient? I have several kinds of special spiritual fruits here, why don't the three Fellow Daoists taste them before leaving?" The woman in palace attire said with a smile.
"No need. Tasting spiritual fruits, there will always be opportunities in the future," Han Li chuckled, bowed slightly, and shook his sleeve. A sheet of golden light flew out, rolled the three of them into it, and turned into a golden rainbow breaking through the air in an instant. With just a flash, it disappeared outside the hall door.
Seeing this, Xie Lian didn't try to keep them, but her eyebrows couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Haha, it seems this Fellow Daoist Han doesn't want to associate with you, a Holy Ancestor of the Demon Realm, too much. This is not strange, your Demon Realm just had a great war with the Spirit Realm. This grudge is not so easy to resolve!" The bald strong man laughed.
"Whether the relationship between the Holy Realm and the Spirit Realm is good or bad is not something you, Brother Jin, can ask about. Now that Fellow Daoist Han has decided to participate in the gathering, I don't know what Brother Jin's plans are?" Xie Lian's expression sank slightly and asked.
"This still needs to be asked? Naturally, I will participate together when the time comes. However, Brother Shi and I have no interest in sleeping in the open, I'm afraid we will have to borrow your place for a period of time," the bald strong man laughed and said without hesitation.
"Good, since Brother Jin and the others are also willing to go together, that is naturally the best. As for borrowing, it is no problem at all. It is my honor that the two Fellow Daoists are willing to stay in my humble abode," Xie Lian replied with a smile upon hearing this.
The bald strong man and his companion naturally showed satisfaction upon hearing this.
At this time, several women in palace attire walked in from outside the hall, holding plates of spiritual fruits and cups of fragrant spiritual tea...
At this time, Han Li and his party were flying in the high sky.
Not long after, the three of them landed in a secluded valley in the Wanhua Mountain Range.
Han Li raised his hand to release several giant ape puppets, and opened a temporary cave dwelling on the cliff on one side of the valley.
As soon as the three of them entered this temporary cave dwelling, they each entered a secret room and began to sit cross-legged and rest quietly.
Before participating in the gathering of those Holy Ancestors and foreign powerhouses, the three of them naturally had nothing to discuss about the next step.
Of course, Yin Yue naturally couldn't help but worry about Ancestor Aoxiao.
But after she knew that everyone was just trapped in the Place of Origin Seal and had no life-threatening danger for the time being, she couldn't help but feel relieved in her heart.
A month's time, for a cultivator like Han Li, passed in a flash.
On this day, Han Li was sitting quietly in the secret room, his expression flickered, and he suddenly moved his arm, grabbing toward the void before him.
"Puchi" sound!
A crystal-clear white jade piece was actually grabbed by him from the void.
He didn't say a word, placed the jade piece between his palms, and rubbed them gently.
Suddenly, the jade piece shattered, and a ball of green flames erupted from it.
"Brother Han, the time has come. Please come to Chaotian Peak, I am going to set off today," Xie Lian's calm voice came from the green light, as if she were right in front of him.
Han Li smiled upon hearing this, rubbed his hands together again, extinguished the green flames, and stood up.
Half a day later, Han Li appeared in a small secret hall of the emerald green palace on Chaotian Peak with Crab Daoist and Yin Yue.
There, Xie Lian and two charming female disciples, as well as Jin Cha and his companion, were all there.
And in the center of the secret hall, a pale silver array about a zhang in size was flickering with faint spiritual light.
"This array of mine can transmit to a town nearest to the gathering place, and then you only need to walk for half a month to reach the agreed place. Brother Jin, Fellow Daoist Han, please," Xie Lian said indifferently to the others.
"Good, since that's the case, Brother Shi and I will go first," Jin Cha chuckled, and walked into the silver array with the disheveled strong man beside him without any hesitation.
After a flash of faint spiritual light, the figures of the two Grand Ascension existences from the White Light Realm disappeared into the teleportation array.
Han Li's expression remained as usual, greeted Crab Daoist and Yin Yue, and entered the silver array without standing on ceremony, and was transmitted away in a flash.
Seeing this, Xie Lian sneered, and entered the silver array with her two female disciples behind her.
Half a month later, in the center of a boundless yellow desert, the ground shook suddenly, and amidst the rolling sand, an earthy-yellow ancient city emerged from underground.
This earth city was only a few miles in size, but the surrounding city walls were ten or twenty zhang high, and amidst the low sound of drums, teams of armored soldiers actually surged onto the city walls.
These armored soldiers were expressionless, wearing armor of various colors, holding various weapons, and were actually a kind of specially made puppet, numbering in the tens of thousands.
And in the center of this earth city, a golden palace stood there.
The palace was exquisite and magnificent, not only appearing as if it were made of pure gold, but its surface was covered with various mysterious Demon patterns, and the top was inlaid with countless gems the size of a fist, colorful, emitting gorgeous light.
And not long after, suddenly a hiss came from the sky, and white light appeared in the sky, and a white jade beast carriage flew out from it.
The beast carriage was more than ten zhang long, elegant in form, crystal clear, and in front were four white dragons spraying clouds and mist, speeding along.
And on the beast carriage, a man and a woman stood side by side.
The man looked to be in his forties, with a cyan face, wearing a white robe, but with crystal light flowing on it.
The woman was a young woman in her twenties, with high hair, wearing light blue leather armor, and her face was extremely delicate.
The beast carriage flashed a few times, and under the drag of the four white dragons, it arrived above the earth city.
The man formed a seal with one hand, and suddenly white light flashed, and the beast carriage and the white dragons disappeared.
And this pair of man and woman flashed, turned into white Qi, and plunged into the golden palace below.
The palace was quiet, without any strange sounds coming from it.
A while later, spiritual light flashed in the sky on both sides of the earth city, and a black rainbow and a silver rainbow appeared in the sky at the same time. After a few flashes, they crossed a hundred miles and arrived near the earth city, and plunged into the palace gate in a flash.
Half an hour later, bursts of Sanskrit sounds came from the sky in another direction, and after a sheet of seven-colored light flashed, a team of more than a thousand people emerged in the void in the distance.
This team had an equal number of men and women, either wearing golden armor and holding axes, halberds, and swords, or wearing five-colored clothes, playing flutes and harps, as if they were heavenly soldiers and fairies.
In the middle of these people, they were surrounding a seven-colored halo about an acre in size, and the light was spinning.
In the halo, there was vaguely a giant chair, on which sat a tall figure wearing a long robe.
This team flew to the sky above the earth city unhurriedly, and after the seven-colored halo fell before the palace, the light converged, and a majestic old man wearing an imperial crown and a seven-colored long robe appeared.
The old man coughed slightly, looked at the palace before him, and walked toward the palace gate with an expressionless face.
At the same time, the armored soldiers and the fairies in colorful clothes above the earth city flashed, and turned into dots of spiritual light and disappeared into thin air, as if they were just illusions.
Just like this, in the next few hours, bursts of black Qi flew from outside the desert, or a ball of flames broke through the air, and some strange-looking people appeared at the earth city one after another, and all entered the golden palace without a word. ===== CHAPTER 2236 =====
