Chapter 1002: Surprisingly, the Primordial Violet Qi
Compared to their anger, Laozi and the others were even more shocked by Yin Qi's intelligence-gathering capabilities, as he actually knew of the existence of the Anti-Shang Alliance, because the targets of the rumors Di Qi spread on the network had included the Anti-Shang Alliance.
If it were only the Witch and Demon races, along with Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun, it could still be explained away.
After all, they all held grudges against the Great Shang and the Human Race.
But the fact that the Western Two Sages, and even the Dragon and Phoenix races who were on good terms with the Great Shang Celestial Dynasty, were included was clearly contrary to common sense; only Di Qi knew the list of the Anti-Shang Alliance.
But, how did Di Qi know?
The matter of the Anti-Shang Alliance was known only to the high-level figures of each faction, and for the sake of secrecy, they communicated either through Traditional Secret Technique or direct meetings; logically, there should have been no leaks.
For this reason, the various factions held another emergency secret meeting.
They gathered at Shouyang Mountain.
……
Shouyang Mountain.
Eight Views Palace.
"That brat Di Qi is bullying us too much; if we don't tear him to pieces, how can we vent our hatred? This humble Daoist believes there is no need to wait any longer; let us immediately dispatch troops and flatten Zhaoge."
"We cannot. Since Di Qi knows of us yet remains unmoved, he must have long been prepared. Furthermore, as of now, in terms of the number of Golden Immortals and Great Luo Golden Immortals, our combined forces are barely on par with the Great Shang."
"I also believe there is no rush to dispatch troops; we should first find the mole. Otherwise, any plan we have in the future will be seen through by Di Qi before we even have a chance to implement it."
"This humble Daoist actually thinks that Di Qi does not necessarily know of our existence. The reason he is counterattacking us is very likely because he used the Heavenly Dao Network to learn that we were all involved. It is understandable that the Human Race, now almost dominant, has become the target of public criticism."
………
The various parties argued intensely.
Yuanshi Tianzun, Jieyin, Zhunti, and others actively advocated for dispatching troops, but the Witch, Demon, Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin races disagreed because they were not yet fully prepared.
Dispatching troops now would only make them cannon fodder for the Sages.
In the end, it was only through the mediation of Laozi that the parties did not break up in discord, and they decided to proceed according to the plan.
After returning, each party worked even harder to develop their strength.
Everyone was holding their breath.
………
Zhaoge.
Zichen Hall.
The Anti-Shang Alliance gathering at Shouyang Mountain naturally could not escape the surveillance of Immortal Tomb.
Yin Qi did not take it to heart, because unless Di Jun, Di Jiang, and Zulong were resurrected, the Witch, Demon, Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin races would never dispatch troops.
Relying solely on the Ren Sect, Chan Sect, and Buddhism, plus the Sea of Blood and the Demon Master Palace, they were far from being a match for the Human Race.
Therefore, even if they were furious, they could only endure it.
"By the way, are Haotian and Yaochi Jinmu still wandering above the East Sea?"
"Yes, Master."
A sharp light flickered in Yin Qi's eyes.
It had already been 1,500 years, and Haotian and Yaochi Jinmu were still wandering above the East Sea; they seemed to be looking for something.
What was more critical was that Haotian was disguised in the open, while Yaochi Jinmu was actually hiding in the void.
If not for Mobile Phone Positioning, he would not have been able to discover them.
After a long while, Yin Qi instructed: "Immortal Tomb, mark out the areas Haotian has wandered through over these past 1,500 years for me."
"Yes, Master."
As Immortal Tomb finished speaking, a map of the East Sea territory appeared in his mind, with Haotian's wandering footprints upon it.
"Huh!"
Yin Qi was surprised, his gaze narrowing.
He discovered that although Haotian's footprints on the map were scattered, they were always within a fixed area, and this area was not very far from the shattered Penglai Island.
The furthest point was about 3 trillion li away, and the closest was only a little over 50 billion li.
Being so close to Penglai Island, could it be that they were searching for the legacy treasures left behind by Dong Wanggong?
The legacy treasures of Dong Wanggong were no secret in Honghuang.
Back then, Dong Wanggong was the head of the male immortals personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor, with a reputation even higher than that of Di Jun and Di Jiang, and he had divided the world into three parts alongside the Witch and Demon races.
Such a behemoth surely had a deep foundation.
But following the death of Dong Wanggong and the shattering of Penglai Island, the Monster Race Heavenly Court had only obtained a few scraps. For example, the Supreme Innate Spiritual Root of Penglai Island, the Dongyang Wood, had completely disappeared.
The Dongyang Wood, the companion spiritual root of Dong Wanggong, was just like the Ginseng Fruit Tree to Zhenyuanzi; its attributes were extremely rigid and Yang, and its Leaf could refine Pure Yang Heavenly Water, which had the effect of tempering the Primordial Spirit and the physical body.
"No!"
Yin Qi shook his head secretly.
Dong Wanggong's legacy treasures were not necessarily around Penglai Island; with Dong Wanggong's cultivation, they could have been stored anywhere in Honghuang.
Moreover, since ancient times, countless people, including the Sages, had searched for them, but there had never been any clues.
This, of course, included Haotian.
If so, why would they go searching for them?
Even taking a step back, even if Haotian obtained this legacy, for the Heavenly Court, it would at most be icing on the cake, and it was certainly not enough to make the couple search in secret for 1,500 years.
It looked like they would continue to search.
Please... you.... bookmark 6... 9... book....!
"That area must contain a treasure even rarer than the legacy of Dong Wanggong."
Thinking of this, Yin Qi sank into the depths of his mind and communicated with the Altar: "Altar, calculate the purpose of Haotian's wandering and searching in the East Sea."
Although he had already become a Sage, he still could not calculate Haotian's secrets.
He could only seek help from the Luck Altar.
"As you wish!"
As the grand voice finished speaking, a piece of information appeared in Yin Qi's mind, causing his entire body to tremble!
Hongmeng Purple Qi!
"No wonder, no wonder indeed."
Yin Qi whispered softly to himself.
He had said it himself; if it were worth Haotian and his wife joining forces to search for 1,500 years and still not be enough, it must be an extraordinary treasure.
It turned out to be Hongmeng Purple Qi.
According to the information calculated by the Altar, Haotian had previously made a trip to Zixiao Palace and obtained news of the Hongmeng Purple Qi from Hongjun Daozu, stating it was on Yingzhou Island.
And this strand of Hongmeng Purple Qi was precisely the one that had originally belonged to Hongyun.
Besides the Hongmeng Purple Qi, Yingzhou Island also contained the Supreme Innate Spiritual Root, the Five-Needle Pine; furthermore, because there was a mysterious connection between the Three Immortals Island, if Yingzhou Island were to manifest, Fangzhang Island would also appear.
And on Fangzhang Island, there were the Huangzhong Plum and the Twelfth-Grade Purifying World White Lotus.
These were all legendary Spiritual Roots and Spirit Treasures.
Because of the mysterious connection between the Three Immortals Island, they naturally could not be too far apart, which was also the reason why the area Haotian was searching was not very far from Penglai Island.
It was precisely because of this that Yaochi Jinmu had hidden herself within the void.
Haotian's goal was the Hongmeng Purple Qi and the Five-Needle Pine; when Yingzhou Island manifested, it would attract powerful figures from all sides to gather, and then Yaochi Jinmu could take the opportunity to enter Fangzhang Island first and collect the Huangzhong Plum and the Twelfth-Grade Purifying World White Lotus.
With Haotian's cultivation and foundation, once he obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi, becoming a Saint would not be a major issue.
Then, with the Huangzhong Plum, he could cultivate hundreds of Great Luo Golden Immortals.
At the very least, on the surface, the comprehensive strength of the Heavenly Court would leap to become the hegemon of Honghuang.
A look of intense eagerness flashed in Yin Qi's eyes.
This was, after all, Hongmeng Purple Qi.
Although he disdained to use it and did not need to use it, obtaining it would also allow him to cultivate a Saint.
Adding Nuwa to that, the Yin Shang would then possess three Saints.
However, in the end, Yin Qi suppressed the thought of immediately notifying his true self, and he communicated with the Altar: "Altar, calculate the whereabouts of Yingzhou Island, as well as the method to enter and exit."
"As you wish!"
As the grand voice finished speaking, a surge of information appeared in Yin Qi's mind.
Yingzhou Island drifted between the void and reality, its traces erratic and uncertain; it would only fully enter the real world for a brief moment every 100,000 years, after which it would immediately vanish back into the void.
This brief moment was only about one minute long.
During this minute, because Yingzhou Island was shrouded by an Array Formation, its traces would also be hidden.
Unless one happened to run into it, it would be impossible to discover. (End of this chapter)
