Chapter 590 Forming Alliances and Struggling for Supremacy (Part 1)
"The Celestial Masters who sealed this place back then also considered that once the Demon Lord reappeared, he would inevitably cause harm to this world, so they have already made arrangements."

"Within the void passage, there is a secret mansion belonging to a senior member of the Celestial Masters sect. There are hidden features in the immortal mansion. Therefore, as long as we find this immortal mansion and activate its features, we can seal this void passage."

"The void passage is of a special nature, as it combines the forbidden techniques of the Celestial Masters Sect. Therefore, it is difficult for the Longevity True Person to enter. This situation requires the help of Void Step cultivators, and there are even heretical demons at the Heavenly Tribulation level among them. Everyone should be cautious."

"Therefore, our sect has a suggestion: everyone should put aside sectarian differences and past grievances, and prioritize the overall situation."

Master Puxiang said, his eyes sweeping downwards.

"Does anyone have any further questions?"

This immortal was kind and approachable. He briefly explained the cause and effect in a few words and then allowed the people below to ask questions freely.

"I dare to ask."

The first to speak was the Dragon Girl Yunluo, who looked at the True Man Puxiang sitting upright on the white lotus with neither arrogance nor servility.

"Now that the void passage is complete, it should be no difficult for the Heavenly Venerables of Xuandu Palace to seal it off. Why make us take such a great risk?"

"Indeed, sealing off the void passage is not difficult, but it is also a rare opportunity to hone the younger generation."

Master Puxiang replied frankly, "Our sect believes that instead of making minor repairs, we should encourage the younger generation to make progress."

"Moreover, that immortal abode contains many rare immortal treasures. It would be a pity if they were just left in the Blood River Realm."

The earth immortal's eyes swept over the area below: "Such ancient immortal treasures are truly rare and hard to come by..."

"Senior, don't these rare treasures all have owners?"

Xiao Feiyu, the Sword Master with numerous titles, asked, "It's not that this disciple doesn't believe in the promises of Xuandu Palace, but I'm truly afraid that some people will seek revenge later, and our small sect can't afford to bear that."

As he spoke, he glanced at Mingwei several times.

"Please rest assured, everyone. The Immortal Abode is an opportunity left to all people by our predecessors, not something for any one family or household."

Master Puxiang said kindly, "The Celestial Masters sect has also promised that if one is destined, all kinds of rare treasures can be taken by anyone."

It seems there's some kind of deal involved.

Su Che had witnessed the scene of Xuandu Palace bargaining with Huang Tiandao. If the Celestial Masters Sect wanted to give up the mansion of their predecessor, Xuandu Palace would definitely have to offer real gold and silver in exchange.

"Once the void rift opens, evil spirits and heretics will surely take the opportunity to cause trouble. May I ask, senior, if a conflict truly breaks out..."

Su Che then asked.

To be fair, Young Master Su would never cooperate with those guys from White Deer Cave.

"Our sect only hopes that everyone will unite as one. If a conflict does arise, it is simply a matter of fate."

Master Puxiang then spoke earnestly.

"There will inevitably be demons taking advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble, and some may even hope to fix this void rift. If such a thing happens, our sect will also have a backup plan. At that time, you may all be trapped in the Blood River Realm forever."

To put it nicely, they are trapped within the Blood River Realm; to put it bluntly, they have been corrupted by the extraterrestrial demons and are forever reduced to their slaves.

"Gentlemen, that's all I have to say. In three days, our sect will remove the restrictions and allow all forces to enter the void passage. You should all go back and make preparations in advance."

The way a powerful immortal saw off his guests was extraordinary. The people present felt dizzy and lightheaded, and in the blink of an eye, they were standing on the bustling streets of Jiankang City.

The area was filled with passersby and the sounds of vendors calling out their wares, but the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Pavilion, which had been clearly visible before them, had vanished without a trace, as if it had disappeared into the world.

It seems the duel between Master Puxiang and Buddha Bukong is not over yet, and those brothers in Jiankang who want to have some fun will have to be patient for a while longer.

Su Che dusted off his sleeves and walked directly to Bai Chi Tianya.

"It would be best if fewer people from Bailudong came this time, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to resist."

Zhongjia slowly took a step back.

"This matter concerns the overall situation in the Central Plains, so Marquis Changxin should be careful."

"With people like you around, what's the point of talking about the big picture?"

Su Che asked coldly, "Don't you know what the old emperor was doing outside Jiankang?"

Zhong Jia's expression turned serious: "Is Marquis Changxin trying to smear our sect? Too bad, we don't need to report to you how we act." "Stealing the fates of heroes from all over the world, then colluding with the demonic sects and thugs, you have other plans. Let me tell you, if you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place. I want to see how long your sect at the foot of Mount Lu can hold out."

"Then I'll trouble you with this, my lord."

Bai Chi Tianya bowed and turned to leave.

Su Che didn't try to stop him, but just snorted coldly and watched him walk away silently.

"Does Junior Brother Su have a grudge against those guys from White Deer Cave?"

Ji Boyuan asked curiously.

"As a friend of life and death, I am ashamed to say that before I became a disciple of my master, these friends from Bailudong wanted to kill me."

"How dare these scoundrels do this?"

Senior Brother Ji of Shenxiao Sect clapped his hands: "These bastards really don't want to live anymore. Junior Brother Su, let me tell you this, this is the perfect opportunity for you to vent your anger, so that these good-for-nothings will avoid you from now on."

This……

"Senior Brother Ji, we are from a reputable sect..."

"That's right. It's precisely because we are a reputable sect that anyone who finds fault with you is considered to be going against our sect, a treacherous villain who is plotting to undermine stability and unity. If everyone worships the same ancestor, it means they look down on the Supreme Dao Ancestor. If we don't stand up for him, how can we continue to roam the martial world?"

"Senior Brother Ji, you are truly a reasonable person."

"Junior brother, I have always won people over with virtue."

As the two were talking, Daoist Mingwei, standing nearby, raised an eyebrow and said...

"See, this is what you call birds of a feather flock together."

"What, you're not convinced?"

“We, the Celestial Masters Sect, are a small and insignificant sect. How dare we be dissatisfied? I’m afraid the heavenly soldiers and generals of the Divine Firmament Sect will wipe out our sect.”

Mingwei's tone was sarcastic and unfriendly.

"Young Master Su, please take good care of me when we are in the void rift in the future."

Yun Luo bowed and said, "You are all from the orthodox sects of the Xuanmen. I, a remnant of the demon god, will not linger any longer."

With that, she turned and left.

"That immortal abode was left behind by our Celestial Masters sect predecessors. If you want to take it, feel free to try."

Mingwei said confidently, "I will come back to ask the Huangtian and Shenxiao sects for their profound Taoist teachings later."

"Oh dear, it seems we've all become big bad guys."

Jing Shenjian laughed heartily.

"But I really enjoy this opportunity to be the villain. How about we team up and kick these little guys out of the game?"

"It's not impossible."

Ji Boyuan smiled slightly.

"The Celestial Masters Sect is practically the host, so let's be frank here: the Yellow Heaven Sect and the Sword Palace already have talismans bestowed by the Xuandu Palace, right?"

"Indeed, I am quite lucky. The gentlemen of Xuandu Palace have rewarded me with a meal."

“Our sect also has one.” Ji Boyuan was certainly not a fool, but his quirk was rather江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the world of martial arts and chivalry): “Actually, one talisman from the ancient underworld is enough, but that master from the Celestial Masters Sect back then, hehe, he has quite a story. His immortal abode is worth a visit.”

"Because that earth immortal was not from the Celestial Masters sect, but came from the ancient Heavenly Court and later joined the Celestial Masters sect."

Xiao Feiyu looked at Ji Boyuan and said with a sudden realization, "Speaking of which, the Celestial Masters Sect and your sect both originated from the ancient Heavenly Court."

"That senior has some connection with our sect. He was an official under the Three Heavens Destiny Bureau back then. When the ancient Heavenly Court was destroyed, he was a wandering immortal on earth for a period of time before joining the Celestial Masters Sect. Otherwise, the Celestial Masters Sect would never have given up this immortal abode."

Ji Boyuan smiled slightly: "If we're talking about who is the true successor of the ancient Heavenly Court, our Shenxiao Dao is second to none."
