Chapter 184: Anlan: Dear Friend Liu Shen, Let Me Explain

Yutuo has lived longer than Anlan and indeed does not know much about the origins of the Foreign Realm.

Never did he expect that the Foreign Realm and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were actually of the same origin.

"Anlan, you are the youngest Immortal King, and the ancient Immortal Kings all have high hopes for you. In this great war against the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, you must perform well," Yutuo said.

He thought highly of Anlan and even felt that Anlan might go further than he himself could.

"Mn, I will certainly dampen the arrogance of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths," Anlan said.

"Hehe, there is no need to be so tense. As eras cycle, our side has several times more Immortal Kings than the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths; this is a battle without suspense," Yutuo patted Anlan on the shoulder.

"This first offensive is not to launch a full-scale war directly, but to target the geniuses of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, especially the descendants of the Ten Fiends."

"The Ten Fiends, although they are quasi-Immortal Kings, possess strength comparable to Immortal Kings. Once they unleash their precious techniques, they can even suppress Immortal Kings and force them to avoid the brunt of their power."

A ruthless look appeared on Yutuo's face; strangling geniuses was more painful to the enemy than killing millions of their cultivators.

"Yutuo, do you mean to ambush the Ten Fiends? Which ones specifically?" Anlan asked.

"Tianjiaoyi, Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, Lei Di, Kunpeng!"

"We have already secretly dispatched four Immortal Kings to surround the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass and the Kunpeng. As for the frontal battlefield, we must target Tianjiaoyi and Lei Di. Especially Lei Di; he must die."

"Anlan, when the time comes, you and I will strike together to attack Lei Di."

Yutuo felt very at ease with this close friend of his and laid out the plan completely.

"No problem, let us wipe out the geniuses of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths together," Anlan vowed solemnly.

Afterward, Yutuo left the Imperial City to prepare for the great war.

As Yutuo walked away, Anlan's expression became serious, and he said:

"It is a pity that my strength is insufficient, otherwise I would definitely stop this great war. Although the Foreign Realm will win this war, the price paid will not be small."

……

Late at night, Anlan used a secret technique to arrive outside the Imperial Pass and transmitted his voice across space to the Immortal Ancient Liu Shen.

Inside the Imperial Pass, Liu Shen, who was discussing how to deal with the Foreign Realm with Wuzhong, Lunhui, and the Ancestor of the Seven Kings, had a slight change in expression.

"Everyone, I shall take my leave for a moment," Liu Shen said.

"Has something happened?" Wuzhong asked.

"I am not quite sure," Liu Shen said.

In the universe of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, above a certain primordial star in the starry sky.

Liu Shen arrived at this place, where Anlan was waiting from afar.

Sensing the aura on Liu Shen's body, Anlan felt a bit intimidated.

The Dao Fruit aura of the Immortal Ancient Liu Shen was too strong; it had almost transformed to the extreme, nearly equivalent to a Supreme Giant.

"If I remember correctly, you are the Immortal King Anlan of the Foreign Realm. You called me here; are you not afraid that I will suppress and kill you?" Liu Shen said calmly.

"Liu Shen, we are both at the Immortal King Realm; even if you want to kill me, it will not be that easy," Anlan said.

"You may try!"

Having said that, Liu Shen unleashed the Liu Shen Technique, and a magnificent, heaven-reaching willow tree Dharma Aspect appeared behind her. Each willow branch was like an Order Chain, and on the branches of the willow tree, galaxies floated and sank, with stars standing like a forest.

An incomparably ancient aura of an Ancestor Sacrificial Spirit rushed toward him. Anlan hurriedly waved his hands and said:

"Liu Shen, I did not come here to fight. If you fight me, it will not be long before your Nine Heavens and Ten Earths lose a genius monster!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Shen frowned.

"The Supreme Giants of the Foreign Realm have already sent four Undying Kings to surround the Nine-Leaf Grass and have set up an ancient forbidden array that isolates auras; you cannot perceive it," Anlan said.

"Nine-Leaf Grass!"

Liu Shen's expression was one of surprise. Being a plant herself, her relationship with the Nine-Leaf Grass was naturally very good.

The Nine-Leaf Grass was rooted beneath the Heavens; although it was not at the Imperial Pass, that location was also the closest to the Foreign Realm.

Although Liu Shen was slightly shocked in her heart, she still said:

"Why should I believe you? You are also an Undying King of the Foreign Realm; could this not be a conspiracy of yours?"

"To tell the truth, for certain reasons, this seat does not wish for the Foreign Realm and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths to go to war, because this benefits no one.

Secondly, a close friend told me that countless eras ago, the people of the Foreign Realm were also creatures of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths; we are of the same origin.

Thirdly, although the Foreign Realm has done many things that anger both gods and men, I fear that within the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, there are some existences that are no better," Anlan said.

Liu Shen was silent; Anlan's words were not wrong.

The Foreign Realm and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were indeed of the same origin, and the interior of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was not as united as it appeared on the surface.

"I sense traces of my aura on you; what is going on?" Liu Shen asked.

She sensed her own aura on Anlan, but that aura felt very weak when probed and differed from her own, as if it had already undergone Nirvana.

Anlan showed a look of realization. Having previously gone to the space-time of Xiao Shi and having been whipped by the Liu Shen of the lower realm, he had become stained with a bit of the Ancestor Sacrificial Spirit's aura, so he said:

"I have met you from another space-time, the future you. In that timeline, we are close friends, bosom buddies who talk about everything."

"?" Liu Shen.

"I know you might not believe me, Liu Shen."

Anlan then materialized a portion of his Primordial Spirit memories, and scene after scene appeared before their eyes.

Those were scenes in the Shi Village of the later generations, with the Liu Shen of the lower realm, Xiao Shi, and Xuanzang all present!

To Liu Shen, these scenes were both familiar and strange.

"I will believe you for now, but I believe that even in that space-time, we would not be close friends. Do not lie to me," Liu Shen said.

"……" Anlan.

Afterward, Liu Shen and Anlan rushed toward the place where the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass was rooted.

On the way, Anlan felt slightly relieved in his heart; Liu Shen was still easy to talk to. If it had been any other Immortal King, they would have whipped him to death.

However, for this seat to be in the same frame as Liu Shen is also an event rarely seen in eternity. Next, there will inevitably be some fighting side-by-side, so I shall start a live stream to commemorate it.

"Ding, Immortal King Anlan has started a Chat Group live broadcast!"

"Ding, Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei has joined the Live Broadcast Room!"

"Ding, Zui Ai He Shounai has joined the Live Broadcast Room!"

"Ding, the Journey to the West Scripture Seeker has joined the Live Broadcast Room!"

"Ding, Invincible Yuwentuo has joined the Live Broadcast Room!"

"Ding, the Number One Golden Core of the Nine Provinces has joined the Live Broadcast Room!"

In an instant, many group members joined one after another.

Within the live broadcast screen, stars flashed by like a blur, and the boundless galaxy felt within reach; the scene was astonishing.

Number One Golden Core of the Nine Provinces: "Little Lanzi, where are you? So many stars?"

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Brother Anlan, causing trouble again?"

Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "Could it be that the war of the Immortal Ancient Era has begun?"

Demon Queen: "Damn, what a massive scene!"

Immortal King Anlan: "Xuan Ge has eyes like torches; everyone, look at who is beside me?"

The camera shifted, and the noble and beautiful Immortal Ancient Liu Shen appeared before everyone's eyes.

Zui Ai He Shounai: "Liu Shen!

"

Xiao Shi was the first to recognize her, but he felt there were some differences between the Immortal Ancient Liu Shen and the current Liu Shen.

The Immortal Ancient Liu Shen was more majestic, and her aura was more powerful?

The current Liu Shen, after her nirvana, was more approachable.

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Big Boss Liu Shen, how could you appear here? Brother Anlan, you beast, don't tell me you poached Xiao Shi's corner."

Demon Queen: "It has to be you, Ye Hei, what kind of wild imagination is this."

Number One Golden Core of the Nine Provinces: "What a huge piece of gossip!"

The Number One Extraordinary Woman of the Yin-Yang School: "Indeed huge!"

Han Paopao of the Seven Profound Sect: "At this moment, a certain milk-drinking baby has developed killing intent!"

Immortal King Anlan: "Don't talk nonsense, the Karma is too great, I won't take the blame. At this time, we are just fighting side by side to go save the Nine-Leaf Grass."
