Chapter 549: Three Immortals Sect

"We have safely survived this Great Tribulation once again."

"Indeed, it is thanks to the people of the Three Immortals Sect for guiding it away. Otherwise, we would never have been able to withstand it here and would have been crushed by the Calamity and the monsters. But what has been going on with that place lately? It is surprisingly active."

"How would I know? That place is wicked. Ever since it shattered, we haven't even been able to speak its name directly. However, guiding the Calamity and the monsters away has certainly been hard on the Great Void outside."

"Heh, you are actually capable of pitying others? That is rare."

At the intersection of two Great Worlds, in this hyperspace, two figures with terrifying auras, resembling gods and saints, stood tall while overlooking the flow of the River of Time and watching the birth and destruction of all things. They were conversing, but the atmosphere did not seem very good.

"It is just the fox mourning the rabbit's death. After all, such a method always treats the symptoms but not the root cause, and it harbors hidden dangers. If the Great Void outside becomes full, this thing will eventually wander back."

A mighty figure shook his head in rebuttal.

"Since you have such concerns, why not simply merge into the Three Immortals Sect? Those three of the Three Immortals Sect are all supreme existences, enough to protect you and me so we need not fear those monsters and the Calamity."

A thin, small figure beside him teased with a laugh.

"That sounds nice, but why don't you join? Although the Three Immortals Sect has the word 'immortal' in it, you and I both have our guesses about what it is actually like. I dare not enter."

The mighty figure curled his lips, expressing speechlessness.

"You dare not do this and you dare not do that; how can you achieve great things? Don't forget why you and I came here! It is for the Great Dao, for the opportunity; otherwise, we should both be hiding and skulking in some corner of the Great Void!"

"I will tell you the truth: I have already accepted the invitation of the Three Immortals Sect, and it is from the Longevity Sect, the head of the Three Immortals Sect! They promised that as long as I merge my world into the Three Immortals Sect, I will obtain the position of Guest Elder and receive the protection of the Three Immortals Sect!"

"By then, there will be no worries about exploring that place!"

The thin, small figure said decisively.

"What! Xuelianzi, have you gone mad?"

The mighty figure exclaimed in disbelief upon hearing this.

"I've gone mad? Heh, let's say I have. In this place, without the protection of the Three Immortals Sect, one is just a withered bone in a grave. If the opportunity is right in front of me but I cannot grasp it, then I might as well be mad."

"Wang Bo, you must remember, there is no gain without sacrifice!"

This existence named Xuelianzi sneered.

Upon hearing this, Wang Bo's expression became uncertain.

He had not expected his old friend of many years to make such a bold decision: to enter the Three Immortals Sect, receive its protection, and be able to stay for a long time to explore that place.

However, all of this came with a price.

As for the price, he was not very clear.

But one hundred thousand years ago, he had once seen a female cultivator of the same realm as him enter the Three Immortals Sect, but in the end, that female cultivator never returned and there was no news of her whatsoever.

There were even rumors that once one enters the Three Immortals, one is no longer master of one's own fate; one is neither human nor non-human, neither ghost nor non-ghost... A series of rumors had cast a very mysterious and terrifying aura over the Three Immortals Sect.

Therefore, among all the Sacred beings gathered here, there was not one who did not fear, or even dread, the Three Immortals Sect.

"Wang Bo, I hope you will also make your choice. Will you stay on the periphery forever, eating the leftovers that others don't want, or join the Three Immortals Sect to drink and eat meat!"

Xuelianzi said this last sentence, flicked his sleeves, and prepared to leave. He had said all he could to this old friend. If he still could not grasp this opportunity, then he could only...

The next moment, his train of thought was suddenly interrupted, and his face revealed astonishment.

Because he was still standing in place and had not left.

What was going on? Could it be that someone had restrained him?

Did Wang Bo make a move against him?

He hadn't made a move first, yet Wang Bo had made a move against him? Xuelianzi was extremely astonished in his heart and looked at Wang Bo, only to discover that there was suddenly one more person opposite Wang Bo, yet he had not perceived it at all.

"Two fellow Daoists, what exactly is this Three Immortals Sect?"

Li Heng smiled slightly as he looked at the two of them.

He had found this cluster of worlds surrounding the Ten Thousand Worlds Great Reincarnation to be somewhat strange, so he had chosen a Great World along the way to investigate and happened to hear the conversation between these two.

And the cultivation of these two was considered quite good; they were also Sacred.

Although they were only at the Initial Holy level.

In fact, it was not just Xuelianzi who was shocked; Wang Bo was even more shocked.

This person was clearly closer to him, yet he had not perceived him at all. Did this not mean that if this person who had suddenly appeared wanted to kill them, it would be simply effortless?

What kind of cultivation did this person have?

He suppressed the shock in his heart, tried to appear calm, and bowed to Li Heng. "I do not know your honorific, fellow Daoist. This poor Daoist's surname is Wang, given name Bo. I am used to being a wanderer and have not taken any good Daoist name; you may simply call me by my name."

"This poor Daoist is Xuelianzi. Greetings, fellow Daoist."

Xuelianzi felt fear arise in his heart, with a faint sense of unease.

Could it be that his inability to leave just now, remaining stuck in place, was the work of this person? He speculated in his heart, but on the surface, he remained calm and performed a very polite salute.

"I do not have any Daoist name either; just call me Li Heng. I have disturbed you two fellow Daoists today. I happened to be passing by this place and heard your conversation, so I became curious. What exactly is this Three Immortals Sect? I ask that you two fellow Daoists enlighten me."

Li Heng continued to say with a smile.

"You do not know of the Three Immortals Sect, fellow Daoist?"

Hearing Li Heng mention this, Wang Bo exclaimed in surprise, appearing extremely astonished. Xuelianzi was also very surprised, his expression somewhat strange, as if he felt this should not be the case.

"I just arrived here, so naturally I do not know."

Li Heng stated the simple truth directly, not bothering to hide it.

"Are you from the Great Void outside, fellow Daoist?"

The two looked at each other and asked in suspicion.

"That is natural. Are people like me rare?"

Li Heng said with a smile.

The two shook their heads.

"On the scale of the Great Void, the number is naturally not small, but for what an individual encounters, outsiders are the rarest of guests."

"However, it is no wonder that you do not know of the Three Immortals Sect, fellow Daoist."

"So, what exactly is the Three Immortals Sect?"

Li Heng chose to get straight to the point and continued to press for answers.

If it were not for the fact that the conversation between these two involved many suspicious points, and that the appearance of the wave of Disaster monsters on the Reincarnation Path seemed related to their conversation, he would not have revealed himself to ask.

After all, these two were merely at the Initial Holy stage.

They were not worth his effort.

"Since you, fellow Daoist, chose to come here, you must have come for that thing in this place, right?"

Wang Bo pondered for a moment and asked.

"That thing, the Ten Thousand Worlds Great Reincarnation?"

Li Heng raised his eyebrows.

Wang Bo was startled upon hearing this.

"Fellow Daoist, watch your words. This place is already within the coverage of that thing's power; such a name cannot be spoken or uttered. Once said, it is very easy to attract Great Terror and Inauspiciousness!"

After speaking, he looked around, seemingly wary of something.
