Chapter 2592
Therefore, the Heavenly Palace should find it very difficult to associate him with the Great Emperor of the Nine Abysses and the Earth Mother.
"Good, very good." He Lingchuan laughed, "This misunderstanding, we must make good use of it."
As soon as he heard the conversation between the Carefree Immortal Maiden and Immortal Mingke, he keenly sensed a new opportunity.
The Heavenly God's attitude and methods toward Ling Mountain and toward his Great Emperor of the Nine Abysses must be completely different.
He Lingchuan must make the Spirit Essence Palace make a grave mistake!
"Once they think the enemy comes from Ling Mountain, the Heavenly God and the Spirit Essence Palace will not wait so long. They have been old rivals for many years, and they both know each other's weaknesses."
If the Spirit Essence Palace suspects that the mastermind behind this kidnapping is Cangyan, they will certainly be extra cautious, doubly so.
After all, the number of times the Heavenly Demon has stumbled in the hands of the Great Emperor of the Nine Abysses is really too many.
Ling Jinbao examined the sand table beside him: "Where do you plan to surface? The Earth Mother's surfacing causes less disturbance, but submerging can be earth-shattering and cannot be hidden."
During Shangguan Biao's control of Yujing City, both surfacing and submerging were grand spectacles; but when the Earth Mother herself took charge, surfacing could be light, slow, and steady, with only slight tremors felt ten li away, but submerging would be... magnificent.
Their pre-battle preparations would easily alert the Spirit Essence Palace.
"There are plenty of good places, we can choose freely." He Lingchuan pointed with his hand, "For example, here!"
Everyone looked and let out a long "oh."
No wonder he is the Great Emperor of the Nine Abysses; his thoughts are always broader than others'.

Wang Mao shi was individually inquiring about the details of the valley sniper battle when Heli Tian suddenly summoned him to the Quanyin Pavilion.
Not long after, Xiao Ping also arrived.
Heli Tian's voice rarely carried emotion:
"The divine gaze on Duan He Yun and A Lian has also been severed, just now."
The two were startled, and Xiao Ping's fist clenched instantly: "They, they actually dared to kill him?"
This "he" naturally refers to Duan He Yun.
"No, I can sense that A Lian is not dead." Heli Tian has a contract with A Lian and can feel her life-death state through the divine mark in her mind, "Only the 'divine gaze' has been shielded."
"How is this done? Could they have also entered a small world or small space?"
Xiao Ping asks this because, in the Spirit Essence Palace, the Heavenly God does not use the divine gaze. First, this is Heli Tian's territory, and he almost has absolute control; second, the divine gaze is isolated by small worlds or small spaces, making it less useful in the Spirit Essence Palace.
Therefore, when Heli Tian mentioned "shielding," Xiao Ping's first reaction was whether this person had entered a small world?
Wang Mao shi immediately said: "Immortal Mingke's spatial artifact."
"If A Lian is not dead but merely placed in a small world, Duan He Yun might be as well." Heli Tian analyzed rationally, "The other party went to great lengths to kidnap him; they would not easily kill him."
Xiao Ping composed herself and hurried out of the Quanyin Pavilion.
Not long after, she returned, her steps lightened and her tone rose:
"Duan He Yun's soul lamp is still lit; he is not dead!"
Important figures of the Spirit Essence Palace all leave a soul lamp to indicate their life and death.
"That is to say, A Lian and Duan He Yun are both alive, but their divine gaze has been shielded. Now, they are in a state where they cannot be tracked." Xiao Ping then looked at Heli Tian, "The divine gaze can no longer guide us; the enemy may soon disappear. Divine Venerable my lord, perhaps only you can now track their whereabouts."
Before Heli Tian could speak, Wang Mao shi strangely asked: "What does this mean?"
He had previously been running around in other small worlds and had not heard this before.
"A Lian is already Heli Tian's vessel; if he descends, he will naturally be guided by his exclusive divine mark to A Lian's body." Xiao Ping explained, "No matter where she is."
Wang Mao shi also knew A Lian's cleverness, so he was somewhat surprised: "Did A Lian agree? When did this happen?"
"Just before they entered Bai Song City." Xiao Ping took a deep breath, "Duan He Yun used touring Bai Song City as a condition to coax her into voluntarily becoming the vessel of the Divine Venerable Heli Tian."
"Ah, this is very likely the reason!" Wang Mao shi clapped once, "The enemy's target is not only Duan Shi, but possibly also A Lian!"
"Her?" Xiao Ping frowned, "Why would the enemy seize a vessel?"
"The vessel of the Divine Venerable Heli Tian, this is no ordinary matter." Wang Mao shi said quickly, "Whether the Spirit Essence Palace operates normally or defends against external enemies, it relies on Heli Tian's Yun Tai dispatch. Assuming the enemy's target is truly the Hidden God Lord, then the Divine Venerable my lord is the greatest obstacle standing between the enemy and their target!"
He said word by word: "Perhaps the enemy wants to use A Lian to deal with you!"
Wang Mao shi exhaled heavily: "From now on, we cannot rule out that the enemy already knew Duan Shi and others had been projected with the 'divine gaze,' and could even turn it against them. The valley battle might have been their trap set this way."
"As for the 'divine gaze,' few in this world know of it, but Ling Mountain must be among them." Do not look at the myriad divine temples in the world, but ninety-nine percent of the temple priests do not even know of the existence of the 'divine gaze.'
Heli Tian fell silent for a moment before asking: "You mean they want to hinder the operation of the Yun Tai?"
"Because it is connected to several small worlds, the Yun Tai cannot be arbitrarily withdrawn, but under your control it can be freely closed." Wang Mao shi emphasized the word "control," "But if it were to脱离 your control?"
Heli Tian did not answer with a question: "Do you think they can deal with me?"
"This is your avatar, whose power is far inferior to the main body. If it were to descend onto A Lian, it could not use more power." A Lian is an immature demon puppet, capable of bearing limited divine power, "Perhaps the enemy already has a trick to harm you?"
If the enemy could pull out this hinge nail of Heli Tian, would invading the Spirit Essence Palace become easier?
"Then the enemy would be too naive." Heli Tian said lightly, "Once this avatar perishes, I can immediately descend a new avatar."
"But during the process of replacing the old with the new, will the Yun Tai be temporarily without a master?"
The preparation for the divine descent ceremony requires considerable time; during the interval before the new avatar descends, could the enemy take the opportunity to invade the Spirit Essence Palace?
"In such a short time, do they intend to steal the body of the Hidden God Lord from the Spirit Essence Palace?" Heli Tian could not help but sneer, "Impossible."
Even if we overlook him, the Spirit Essence Palace's defensive forces are more than sufficient; the enemy could not possibly achieve their goal in just a few moments.
"Furthermore, the Yun Tai can be entrusted to a custodian." Heli Tian said slowly, "If the enemy thinks that, because my avatar is not here, the Yun Tai can be freely accessed by them, that would be too naive!"
