Chapter 705: Enter the Wild Heaven Region, overlooking the vast world

The Void Transmission Disk in his storage ring activated, and the slight unease in his heart was hidden away.

He had two transmission disks, one for external use and one that only contained Heling's divine sense aura.

He kept one separate, fearing he might miss Heling's call while in seclusion.

If there was only one transmission disk, he would know it was her as long as the divine sense aura was triggered.

However, that transmission disk hadn't been used in years, and he didn't know what to talk about or where to start.

He raised his finger lightly; this divine sense aura belonged to someone from the Feng family.

Feng Jinyu looked at the light screen, expressionless, and asked, "What is so urgent?"

"Young master, Miss Nangong...!"

"What happened?!"

"Young master, both the Immaculate Immortal Ridge and the garbage recycling plant have issued obituaries... Miss Nangong and others fell on their way to the battlefield beyond the boundary..."

A mournful voice pierced the air, the Feng family member's voice fell low, speaking cautiously, knowing well that the young master had never chosen a Dao companion over the years, seemingly waiting for someone.

Upon hearing this, Feng Jinyu's pupils contracted sharply, his face turning as pale as paper, and the Image Stone in his hand fell to the ground with a "clatter."

He muttered blankly, "Heling, has fallen?" as if even his own voice felt unfamiliar.

The Feng family member on the other end slowly cupped his hands, "The young master had us keep an eye on Miss Heling's return over the years, but... this news came from Lord Ji Yan, and the tombstone is already set in the Immaculate Immortal Ridge on Li Chen Island."

"I... understand." Feng Jinyu nodded gently, his eyes vacant, only murmuring that he understood, not even noticing when the voice on the other end disappeared.

Between the sea and sky, dark clouds rolled, waves surged, and a cold wind howled, as if echoing the turmoil in his heart.

Yet Feng Jinyu sat there quietly, unmoving, his face showing no joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness, filled with confusion and bewilderment, sitting from noon until dusk.

His heart was ashen, expressionlessly gazing at the vast starry sky, until a shooting star streaked across, prompting him to rise gently and walk to the edge of the cliff.

The waves crashed against the cliff, sending up a spray of snow-like foam, and Feng Jinyu gazed into the distance, his face appearing especially pale in the night, as if all the vitality of the world had left him at that moment.

He even murmured in a daze, "Why would you go to such a dangerous place as the battlefield beyond the boundary... Wasn't eldest brother just taking you to experience the mortal world..."

This voice grew smaller, slowly swallowed by the boundless night.

Three days later, a solitary figure walked away from the island, still holding a cluster of three-colored immortal peach blossoms.

For hundreds of years, he had fought across these islands, partly for cultivation, partly because these islands were home to various rare flowers and plants.

Because she had said she loved flowers, perhaps one day, she would reappear, joyfully accepting the flowers he picked for her...

On Li Chen Island, at the Immaculate Immortal Ridge, the sky was clear and cloudless.

The place was no longer bustling as before; Song Heng, due to his professional methods of arranging grand tombs, took advantage of the factory owner's 'falling wind' to earn a fortune in spirit stones, specializing in arranging grand tombs for small families and sects.

Many came personally to invite him every day, and his reputation was well established.

It was said that Song Heng's business was booked for two years ahead, while Gu Lisheng accompanied him as a guardian, splitting the profits nine to one, constantly lamenting...

Now, the Immaculate Immortal Ridge no longer saw their presence; it was said they were saving spirit stones to head to Xuanwei Heaven, then to the Wild Heaven Region.

There, with many immortal tombs, they planned to dig up treasures for the factory owner's family tomb, especially Brother Dog, who loved to get free things from immortal tombs in life, a wish they naturally had to fulfill.

But today, the Immaculate Immortal Ridge was much livelier.

Before the graves of Old Man Crossing the World and Ximen Black Bull, two women stood for a long time.

But they did not know each other; one was named Yuxuan, the other Qionghua Shuiyu, accompanied by Mo Fuyang, whose eyes were vacant.

The news of Ximen Black Bull's fall spread from the Nine Heavens Immortal Sound Array Disk, shaking the Xuanwei Heaven domain, while Chen Xun and others remained unknown, without even a name.

"Steward Mo."

Yuxuan spoke coldly, her eyes still filled with disbelief, "Did Chen Xun really die like this?! He survived a thousand years in the Immortal Prison, only to be killed by evil spirits from beyond the boundary? How could he be so useless?!"

"Venerable!" Mo Fuyang's honest face flashed with anger, scolding, "There must be something suspicious about the elder's fall, but he has passed away, so please do not speak recklessly before his grave!"

"Hmph." Yuxuan snorted coldly, finding the tombstone unsightly, "I will investigate this matter using the resources of Yao Terrace Immortal Palace and the Ling family of the Immortal Kingdom. My disciple regarded him as a close friend, and his death is too ridiculous."

"Thank you, Venerable!" Mo Fuyang's eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope, bowing solemnly, "If the elder knows in the afterlife, he will surely be grateful to you!"

Yuxuan frowned slightly, ignoring Mo Fuyang, instead gazing at the tombstones of Crossing the World, Black Bull, Heling, and Lion Dog... Why weren't their real names here?!

"You cunning boy, are you really dead?"

Yuxuan thought to herself, a trace of sharpness in her eyes, "If you don't show up at Yao Terrace Immortal Palace before I pass away, I'll definitely flatten your grand tomb!"

She glanced at Mo Fuyang, then turned into a stream of light and disappeared, returning to the Wild Heaven Region, Yao Terrace Immortal Palace, to seek her master!

Once Yuxuan left, the tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed.

Qionghua Shuiyu stood gracefully before the four tombstones, her eyes filled with respect for the deceased.

She had heard of Ximen Black Bull's fall in Xuanwei Heaven and had inquired about this place, stopping by to take a look.

"Miss Qionghua." Mo Fuyang cupped his hands, looking utterly dejected, he sighed softly, "Thank you for coming to see the elders."

"Steward Mo, my condolences."

Qionghua Shuiyu returned the gesture, her face much more mature, "I met Chen Xun and Ximen Black Bull twice, and I didn't expect that the next time we met, we would be separated by life and death."

Mo Fuyang nodded lightly, a hint of reminiscence in his eyes. With the factory owner gone, he naturally had to guard this legacy, as he loved wealth above all, his only hobby on the immortal path.

The Immaculate Immortal Ridge was purchased for fifty billion mid-grade spirit stones, and no mistakes could be allowed, or the factory owner would not rest in peace...

"Steward Mo."

"Please speak, Miss Qionghua."

"Who arranged this grand tomb? I am a descendant of the Nine Dragons Mystic Gate, proficient in this Dao."

"Oh? Miss Qionghua, is there something wrong with these grand tombs?!"

Mo Fuyang was startled, cupping his hands in inquiry. He hadn't heard of the Nine Dragons Mystic Gate, but he couldn't afford to be careless now, knowing Song Heng was somewhat unreliable.

"Steward Mo..." Qionghua Shuiyu's expression was solemn, her face serious, "These tombs have issues; they don't seem to be tombs for the dead, severing the death gate, suppressing fortune, moving stars to eighteen positions, all returning to seven, with three missing from the heavenly position, severing the cause and effect of heaven and earth..."

Qionghua Shuiyu continued speaking to herself, growing more and more alarmed as she spoke, an ancient immortal tomb prototype! The legendary living dead, a means to reverse tomb fortune!

Mo Fuyang was dumbfounded, greatly shocked, Master Dao was so professional?!

"Steward Mo."

"...Here!" Mo Fuyang was startled, not yet recovered.

"Are their bodies inside?"

"The factory owner fell beyond the boundary, no remains..."

"No body, what?!"

Qionghua Shuiyu exclaimed, her pupils tinged with fear, even taking a few steps back, "Steward Mo, don't speak of this tomb for now, I must return to my ancestral land."

"Alright, alright..." Mo Fuyang was somewhat bewildered, actually understanding nothing.

Qionghua Shuiyu was shaken, secretly taking a deep breath, feeling somewhat unskilled, and not daring to directly investigate the tomb.

The Nine Dragons Mystic Gate had too many taboos, some things couldn't even be touched.

But the means in this tomb seemed to be a cover, such strange methods, the real purpose seemed to be positioning!

She had once read in the Mystic Gate's ancient texts that several ancestors had followed an extraordinary person to learn, returning to establish the Nine Dragons Mystic Gate's legacy to this day, but there was no record of who that extraordinary person was.

But it recorded a sentence, the Dao of tomb fortune, I only know a little... the master was the true immortal of tomb fortune!

Qionghua Shuiyu paid her respects to the tombstone, then left with a heavy heart, the guardian outside the Immaculate Immortal Ridge also following her departure.

Half a day later.

A man with black eyes turning to gray eyes slowly arrived, holding only a cluster of flowers, which he placed before Nangong Heling's tombstone.

"Heling, I didn't expect to meet like this..."

The man was Feng Jinyu, now devoid of sorrow or joy, speaking coldly, "This time, I'm here to say goodbye, I will leave the sea domain, become stronger, strong enough to avenge your family..."

After speaking, he took out various rare flowers, covering the entire graveyard, wishing the sea of flowers to accompany her in eternal rest. She was dead, his heart was dead, and the carefree and pure young man was also dead.

Dead before this flower-covered grave, from then on, Feng Jinyu left, never to return, and no one knew where he went.

...

On a super island.

Ji Yan sat alone by a mountain stream, drinking tea, with a stone table beside him, scattered with disordered chess pieces, chaotically spread across the board.

Qian Shan stood nearby, his gaze deep, his thoughts unreadable. Since Tian Li went to the battlefield beyond the boundary, he had been following Ji Yan.

He seemed unable to hold back any longer, speaking in a deep voice, "Ji Yan, Lord Crossing the World..."

"Dead, even the Celestial Formation Dao Palace couldn't find out, we have no capability."

Ji Yan said lightly, his black hair scattered messily behind him, "No need to pay attention to this matter, someone may be more anxious about Crossing the World's death than us."

Qian Shan's gaze narrowed, taking a deep look at Ji Yan, "What are you really thinking?"

"Now, with the immortal kingdom's war beyond the boundary, cultivators of all races are in dire need of war artifacts, the Nether Sea Abyss can finally be put to use."

"Hmm?"

"Now we have a massive amount of top-grade spirit stones, and have hired over a hundred Great Ascension Venerables from various heavenly regions, you all should focus on cultivating, the top-grade spirit stones will pave the way."

Ji Yan smiled warmly, taking a sip of hot tea, "First, swallow up the cultivation industries across the Southern Yu Continent, mix into the Heavenly Melody Immortal Kingdom's court with war artifacts, and naturally, the battlefield beyond the boundary cannot be missed."

"...You?!" Qian Shan was shocked internally.

"The garbage recycling in the world of immortals is too lucrative, more forces are boarding the ship, the Chi family is nearing its end, this was once Crossing the World's grudge, it must be avenged."

"Ji Yan, how far have you planned?" Qian Shan took a deep breath.

Ji Yan's lips curled into a smile, slowly standing, his deep gaze looking out at the vast world:

"Naturally, to enter the Great World of Taiyi, the grand world of immortals' coveted land, the Wild Heaven Region, only there can we truly stand at the pinnacle of the immortal Dao in the Great World of Taiyi, overlooking the vast world."
