Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Xu Zhangqing slowly spoke his second target: "The Three Great Immortal Sects."

Zhu Rong said in surprise: "The Three Great Immortal Sects are the top powers of the Tianyuan Realm; how could they join forces to deal with the Xuanhe Spirit Clan?"

"And why would they do such a thing!"

Xu Zhangqing lightly shook his head: "Don't forget, although the Three Great Immortal Sects are three separate sects in the Tianyuan Realm, on the Tai Xu Lie Yuan side, they all belong to San Yuan Mi Luo Tian."

Therefore the Three Great Immortal Sects appear independent, but are actually bound by shared interests.

"One prospers, all prosper; one suffers, all suffer."

He paused, then continued: "What's more, the Dongting Immortal Sect originally developed to its current scale by sucking blood off the foundation of the Xuanhuang Spirit Sect."

The Xuanhe Spirit Clan back then was the strongest race in the Tianyuan Realm, bar none.

They controlled the power of the Xuan River, with deep foundations and vast clan power.

Back then, the Three Great Immortal Sects had not yet developed; they were merely a cultivation sect.

To the Three Great Immortal Sects, the Xuanhe Spirit Clan and the Xuanhuang Spirit Sect were the greatest obstacles.

Only by severing the Xuan River could the Xuanhe Spirit Clan be destroyed.

Only by destroying the Xuanhuang Spirit Sect could the Tianyuan Realm be controlled.

With interests at stake, nothing the Three Great Immortal Sects do would be surprising.

Zhu Rong pondered the deity's words: "Putting it that way, there really is that possibility."

"The Three Great Immortal Sects appear glorious on the surface, but behind the scenes hide countless schemes."

"The Seven Great Immortal Peaks, especially your Qingmu Peak, weren't they abandoned just like that?"

"If back then it really was they who destroyed the Xuanhe Spirit Clan, then today's status was all exchanged with the blood of the Xuanhe Spirit Clan."

Xu Zhangqing said in a flat tone: "The weak are prey to the strong; the fittest survive."

"Be it the Xuanhe Spirit Clan or the Xuanhuang Spirit Sect."

"They are too powerful, powerful enough to make all powers wary."

Therefore destruction was an inevitable result from the very beginning.

Zhu Rong couldn't help but ask: "So what do we do next?"

Wu Sheng Chong Mu only gave three days, and now there are only three Xuan Tie Tokens.

To gather nine, six are still missing; it's simply impossible to collect them within three days.

Xu Zhangqing coldly smiled: "Three days, impossible to gather nine Xuan Tie Tokens."

"Moreover, Wu Sheng Chong Mu is an old fox; how could she not know how clever she is?"

Therefore, it's obvious she deliberately let me look for clues, thus step by step falling into a quagmire.

Zhu Rong raised his eyebrows: "Therefore..."

Xu Zhangqing said with a playful expression: "Therefore, we go with the flow."

"On one hand, promise Wu Sheng Chong Mu and pretend to activate the Yin River restriction."

"On the other hand, plan slowly and continue searching for Xuan Tie Tokens."

"See if there really is a great calamity, or if Wu Sheng Chong Mu has other schemes."

He paused, adding: "If Wu Sheng Chong Mu's words are not false, and a great calamity is truly coming."

"Then everyone in the Tianyuan Realm cannot remain uninvolved; we are no exception."

Zhu Rong nodded: "Makes sense."

At this time, Tai Bai, Nu Tu, and Fenglong arrived one after another.

Tai Bai's face carried a hint of helplessness: "We searched around the island, and besides a large amount of Taiyin Grass, Yin Condensing Flower, Xuanbing Jade Marrow and other spiritual treasures, we found nothing related to the Yin River restriction."

Nu Tu echoed: "I probed the spiritual veins on the west side of the island; they were very stable, with no abnormal fluctuations."

Fenglong added: "The north side only has some weak Yin Beasts, posing no threat."

"It seems this River Heart Island, besides spiritual treasures and those three dried corpses, has nothing else of value."

Xu Zhangqing slightly nodded, not feeling surprised by this: "As expected, after all we've already searched here once."

"Being able to find one Xuan Tie Token now is already an unexpected joy."

"So what do we do next?"

"Leave?"

"Each go our separate ways?"

Everyone had different thoughts.

Xu Zhangqing shook his head, gazing toward the depths of the Yin River: "Since we've already entered deep into the Yin River, why not go deeper and see what other secrets there are."

Everyone nodded in agreement, with no objections.

Now their strength had all reached Nascent Soul Stage; even if the depths of the Yin River were dangerous, everyone was confident they could handle it.

Afterward, everyone returned to the shore together and boarded the iron ship again.

Xu Zhangqing continued to ferry, controlling the iron ship as it slowly sailed toward the depths of the Yin River.

The iron ship, like a ghost, sailed on the pitch-black river surface without making the slightest sound.

As they continued deeper, the surrounding environment gradually changed.

The already rich Yin Cold Qi became even more biting, like countless ice needles, pricking people's skin with pain; even the Nascent Soul Stage cultivators needed to circulate their magic power to resist it.

Besides, the air was also permeated with a strand of Yin Sha Qi; Yin Sha Qi and Yin Cold Qi intertwined together, forming a strange airflow.

Once inhaled into the body, it would make one's Divine Soul restless, and even cause one's magical power to fall into disorder.

The Yin Beasts in the river water were also becoming more and more numerous, and their kinds were growing increasingly strange.

Some had massive bodies, like small mountains, their whole bodies covered in pitch-black scales, their eyes flashing with dark green light.

Some had small bodies, like ants, gathering densely together, drifting along with the river current; once they neared the Iron Ship, they would pounce up and gnaw.

There were also Yin Beasts with bodies like ghosts, flickering uncertainly in the water, leaping out of the water surface from time to time, emitting a shrill, piercing shriek that made one's hair stand on end.

It is worth noting that the strength of these Yin Beasts was constantly rising.

Initially, the Yin Beasts encountered were mostly comparable to Human Cultivators' Golden Core Stage.

Before Xu Zhangqing and the others, they were simply not worth a single blow.

Either incinerated by Zhu Rong's blazing fire.

Or slain by Tai Bai's Iron Sword.

Or shattered by Fenglong's lightning.

But as they went deeper, Yin Beasts comparable to Nascent Soul Stage appeared.

Their strength was powerful and fierce, their auras violent.

It required everyone to join forces to slay them.

Tai Bai held a Golden Sword in hand, vigilant of the surroundings at all times, and said in a deep voice: "It seems the danger in the Deep Yin River is even higher than we imagined.

Nascent Soul Stage Yin Beasts are becoming more and more numerous.

If we continue deeper, I'm afraid we will encounter even stronger Yin Beasts, perhaps even..."

The female cultivator nodded, magical power erupting all around her, forming a heavy Defense Barrier that protected the Iron Ship within: "Moreover, the Yin Sha Qi here is too dense.

Staying long will damage our Divine Souls.

Even though everyone is at Nascent Soul Stage cultivation, it is still hard to endure."

"What is there to fear?"

Zhu Rong played with a ball of blazing fire, saying excitedly: "The more dangerous, the more likely an Encounter may appear.

These Yin Beasts comparable to Nascent Soul Stage, though powerful, are just right for practice."

The several Avatars had different ideas, therefore they all looked in unison at the Main Body.

Xu Zhangqing waved his hand: "Zhu Rong's words make sense; we cannot give up halfway.

But we must also act carefully, and not be careless.

Fenglong, you are responsible for probing the surrounding auras.

Tai Bai, you are responsible for resisting Yin Beast attacks.

Female Cultivator, you are mainly responsible for stabilizing the Iron Ship.

Zhu Rong, Xu Jiuyou, Xu Zixiao, you just kill!"
