Chapter 947: Get ready, guys, let's do some big work

After speaking, he left the place, feeling quite assured about Chu Zhen and the Five Aggregates Sect.

Back then, he had survived the heavenly tribulation thanks to someone secretly helping him, owing a huge favor that only the Chu family could slowly repay in the future.

Above the sky.

Yun Shao and Qian Shan carefully observed Chu Zhen. Her talent was decent, but she couldn't break through the limits of the Heavenly Spirit Root and didn't possess any special constitution, far from reaching the level of a prodigy.

"I greet the two Great Venerables," Chu Zhen said, standing a few yards away, bowing her head in respect.

"I've long heard of your name, Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance, Yun Shao."

"Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance, Qian Shan."

The two introduced themselves with different expressions, showing no arrogance.

Chu Zhen's cold and beautiful face showed slight tension. She had spent most of her time in the Ancient City of True Spirits, rarely encountering such prominent figures.

"Yes, Great Venerable," Chu Zhen replied, pursing her lips, not daring to look directly at them.

Qian Shan remained calm, his gaze drifting into the distance. He had no desire to interact much with this person, having no connection to them.

After all, Ji Yan had once advised against too much interaction with the disciples of the Five Aggregates Sect.

"A blessed land has been prepared for you on the warship. In half a month, you'll reach the Jade Bamboo Range."

Yun Shao spoke kindly, giving a glance to the cultivators of the Immortal Alliance behind Chu Zhen, "Escort this young friend Chu Zhen over, and do not neglect her."

"Yes!" Several people responded, bowing.

Chu Zhen's brow twitched slightly. All the cultivators were no weaker than her. After paying her respects to the two Great Venerables, she followed them away, noticing they didn't wish to engage in much conversation with her.

Some questions in her heart could only be asked after reaching the Five Aggregates Sect.

After Chu Zhen left.

Yun Shao turned to the man with a calm gaze, "Qian Shan, does she have any special traits?"

"None," Qian Shan shook his head, speaking lightly, "Just an ordinary human cultivator, an old friend of Lord Crossing the World. It's best we don't meddle too much."

"Of course," Yun Shao smiled, shifting the topic, "The Heavenly Melody Immortal Kingdom has sent such vast immortal resources. Lord Crossing the World will surely be quite pleased."

"Heh," Qian Shan chuckled with a hint of meaning, "I've heard of that old general from the Immortal Kingdom, a truly cunning individual. For him to come personally suggests deeper intentions."

Ling Kongshen, trained by a Domain-Suppressing Immortal King of the Immortal Kingdom, the latter being a Great Venerable of the half-immortal realm, with one foot already in the immortal sect, invincible in the world if immortals do not appear.

Currently, the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance lacks even a single Great Venerable, let alone a figure of the half-immortal realm.

Upon hearing this, Yun Shao's eyes narrowed slightly, "It seems the Heavenly Melody Immortal Kingdom intends to bypass the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance and directly negotiate with Lord Crossing the World."

The Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance now exists in name only, relying on the lingering influence of Lord Crossing the World. Those remnant clans have retreated to various special heavenly domains, not recognizing them, barely holding on with Ji Yan's former arrangements.

Now, investing massive financial and human resources to rebuild is a necessity, dealing with a huge mess.

The Nine Great Worlds stabilized so quickly... thanks to several immortals intervening after the Shi Rong Immortal's turmoil, suppressing the origin of the Nine Great Worlds.

This also signifies that the Boundless Great World has fully intervened, no longer under human control, as seen by the influx of foreign great world forces from the Wild Heaven Region.

Qian Shan chuckled lightly, "Perhaps they're discussing a marriage alliance."

"Oh?" Yun Shao's eyes lit up with interest.

The two began to chat leisurely, the atmosphere shifting from tense to quite relaxed.

Time passed with their idle conversation, as the warship sailed through clouds and mist, heading towards the Jade Bamboo Range.

...

Seven days later, in the central region of the Wild Heaven Region—Ultimate Emperor Heaven.

The sky here was exceptionally high, with massive spirit beasts often roaring through the clouds. The vast mountain ranges, stretching millions of miles, were everywhere, with ancient secret realms frequently emerging from unknown corners.

This region was surrounded by seas on all sides, separating the east, south, west, and north, making it the most expansive territory in the Wild Heaven Region, where billions of cultivators from various races sought immortality and enlightenment.

In a bustling city, the noise of various races filled the air from all directions.

Auction events were everywhere in this city, featuring mineral veins, powerful immortal slaves, exotic beast eggs, and more. There's nothing you can't imagine, only things you can't afford!

Especially the immortal materials carried by massive spirit beasts, which made the cultivators on the roadside drool with envy.

Among them were Little Chi, Song Heng, and Gu Lisheng, watching with eager eyes, tears of envy trickling from the corners of their mouths...

As for how they arrived here, and where those two immortals went, that's a long story.

Since Gu Lisheng triggered the wrath of heaven, Immortal Wangyou led them towards the Ancient Immortal Realm, intending to divert the disaster. However, the wrath of heaven ultimately found Gu Lisheng himself!

Wangyou and Immortal Burial were entangled in great karma, retreating injured, and Song Heng advised them to leave, saying the prince would only bring them misfortune.

Seeing the prince unharmed, they nodded lightly, reassured to leave and heal, believing that Master Dao by his side might offer more stability than themselves.

Moreover, with the Dao Ancestor's fourth brother nearby, their current weakness might actually serve as a protective charm.

Their immortal status drew too much attention, as did the disciples of Taiyi Ghost Gate and Burial Heaven Mound. When the prince truly faced danger, they could return to rescue him.

As for Gu Lisheng, struck by the wrath of heaven, he reverted to a muddled state like in the junkyard, his cultivation falling once again to the Elemental Infant phase!

He even forgot the Milky Way War and his identity as a prince...

This was also one of the main reasons the two immortals left, as they could do nothing by staying with the memoryless prince.

On the street.

Little Chi squinted slightly, covering them with a tattered quilt, "Fatty, didn't you say you came to this city to prepare equipment?"

"Of course!" Song Heng's eyes were small but exceptionally shrewd, "Back when Gu Chuiniu and I explored tombs in the Wild Heaven Region, the methods for tombs in this era have changed, so we can't use outdated techniques."

"Master Dao... I've been to the Wild Heaven Region?!" A flash of fear crossed Gu Chuiniu's eyes, "It seems, as you said, I've lost my memory again."

"Gu Chuiniu, stay aside for now. You don't have the right to speak here."

Song Heng frowned, feeling a bit cramped, and looked at Little Chi, "Rengar, we're going to dive into the sea tomb this time. The Treasure-Seeking Compass has pointed the way, and I've calculated its location."

Gu Lisheng gave an embarrassed smile, making some room beside him, looking quite honest as he listened quietly. In his memory, he had never explored a great tomb before.
