Chapter 1439 The Treasure Brings Disaster, Dao Lords Confront Each Other
The moment Chen Xuan's chopsticks touched the thousand-year-old lotus root in the jade plate, a sharp, needle-like mental fluctuation suddenly pierced through the void and struck his sea of consciousness.
He suddenly stood up, his gaze sharp as lightning, locking onto the eastern side of Wujiang City. His expression instantly turned icy cold—the aura he exuded carried a strong sense of covetousness, his target being the Northern Netherworld Immortal Mansion on the second primordial spirit of the garrison.
No, it should be said that the resonance of the two small pagodas is Chen Xuan's most powerful support treasure.
At the same time, ripples appeared in the void outside Wujiang City, and two divine warships of the Dao, engraved with ancient immortal runes, slowly emerged. Their hulls were as majestic as the Kunlun Mountains, their sails blotting out the sky, and they sailed in a mighty manner, carrying a powerful Daoist aura.
After Qifeng and the Dark Night God King stepped forward to verify their identities, the warship passed through the city's protective array and sailed into the city.
On the deck of the leading warship, which flew the battle flag of "Immortal Ancient Holy Land," stood a handsome young man with a gentle and feminine demeanor, his hands behind his back. This was Gu Ningbing.
His eyes, which should have been calm and deep, were now surging with an uncontrollable excitement as he stared intently into the depths of Boundless City, following the direction of his spiritual connection.
"After searching through countless ancient ruins and battlefields, I finally found its aura here, and it's even in two parts!"
As the sharp words fell, a middle-aged woman with an exquisite face, dressed in a moon-white Daoist robe, slowly turned her head at the front of the deck. Her voice was indifferent: "Ning Bing, what have you discovered?" This person was none other than the Second Step Dao Lord of the Immortal Ancient Holy Land, Immortal Inkstone, whose Daoist name was Immortal Platform.
Gu Ningbing quickly bowed, her tone respectful but unable to hide her urgency:
“Master, when I was training in the outer battlefield in my early years, I accidentally obtained a piece of an inconspicuous tower body. I noticed its strangeness but could never figure out its mystery until I passed the Heavenly Tribulation. Only then did I realize that it was a fragment of an ancient immortal treasure, which would be of great benefit to my cultivation. I must find it no matter what.”
"Oh? Such a treasure exists?" Immortal Inkstone raised his eyes and looked towards the direction of Boundless City, his tone full of disdain.
"Once everything is settled, we'll send someone to investigate. If they're just ordinary juniors, a hefty sum can be used to ransom them; even if they're of noble birth, as long as they're not disciples of the Dao Lord, they'll know better than to hand them over."
“Master, you don’t understand the value of this treasure.” Gu Ningbing shook her head gently, her eyes growing increasingly fervent. “If the other party hasn’t yet realized the use of the fragments, it might be feasible; but once he has refined and used them, he certainly won’t let go easily.”
"How powerful could a mere fragment of a treasure that a junior could refine possibly be?" Immortal Inkstone frowned slightly, his tone impatient. "First, find out this person's background and origins. If that doesn't work... then..."
"Thank you for your kindness, Master!" Gu Ningbing was overjoyed and immediately bowed in gratitude, but a secret was hidden in his eyes—he had not revealed a word of the true wonders of this treasure to his master, for fear that the master would covet it.
"Ning Bing, this battle for destiny is led by the disciples of the Bright Moon Supreme lineage. You should focus your attention on the 'first strike' mission after the battle begins, rather than wasting your energy on these trivial matters," Immortal Inkstone warned in a deep voice.
"Disciple will remember Master's teachings." Gu Ningbing responded obediently, but her eyes still shone with excitement, clearly already regarding the treasure as hers for the taking.
A moment later, the two divine warships slowly entered the core area of Boundless City, causing cultivators along the way to stop and give way, their expressions filled with awe.
"Senior Brother June, are those the warships of the Immortal Ancient Land and the Supreme Holy Land?" Chen Xuan looked up at the void, his gaze fixed on the two imposing warships that had broken through the passage, his tone solemn.
June frowned slightly, her gaze sweeping over the warship, her tone calm yet carrying an air of superiority:
"It's quite rare to see Daojun personally leading the team."
He narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly, "The ship in front is from the Immortal Ancient Holy Land, led by the Second Step Dao Lord Immortal Inkstone, whose Daoist name is Immortal Platform; the ship behind is from the Supreme Holy Land, led by the First Step Dao Lord, whose blood energy is like a raging river, and whose strength is even stronger than Immortal Inkstone."
He paused, then slowly revealed the origins of their connection: "These two holy lands are closely linked. During the ancient battle of immortals, their founding sages were originally from the same tribe. It was only because they cultivated different eternal paths that they established their own sects."
Seeing Chen Xuan remain silent, Liu Yue teased with a half-smile, "Junior Brother, do you perhaps wish to go up and try to curry favor with me? If you're willing, I'll act as your go-between."
He had already seen through Chen Xuan's strange expression and guessed that he must have some karmic entanglement with the two holy lands.
“Senior brother, I am about to face a great calamity and would like to ask for your help. I will owe you a favor afterward.” Chen Xuan turned to look at Liu Yue, his tone solemn and his posture so natural that he seemed to be on equal footing with the Four-Step Dao Lord. This surprised Liu Yue inwardly – such demeanor was not something that an ordinary celestial being could possess.
"Oh? Tell me about it." June became interested. He had seen countless extraordinary talents, but this was the first time a junior had dared to ask him for a favor so directly.
Chen Xuan leaned close to June's ear and whispered a few words in a voice only the two of them could hear, before adding, "I have never met these two holy lands before, but from today onwards, irreconcilable conflicts are bound to arise."
After hearing this in June, she felt it was just a small favor and immediately nodded.
With a thought, his divine sense instantly covered all the cultivators on the previous life-or-death arena, his voice carrying the pressure of a Dao Lord, resounding throughout everyone's sea of consciousness:
"The fact that the cultivators of the Flame Dragon Realm obtained the Supreme Guidance Token today must not be revealed to anyone before the battle for destiny ends. Immediately swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao, or you will suffer the backlash of the Heavenly Dao and be annihilated, soul and spirit!"
On the eighth floor of Louwailou, Jue Wuqing and Zi Chen were drinking with a group of immortal kings and gods when they heard this. They were all startled and dared not hesitate for a moment. They immediately made a Heavenly Dao oath, and a faint Heavenly Dao mark appeared on their souls.
Those cultivators at the Void Realm, Celestial Immortal, and True Immortal levels who had already dispersed and returned to their lodgings reacted even more swiftly, obeying the order without hesitation and swearing an oath—"How dare I disobey the Dao Lord's command?"
In the blink of an eye, the matter was settled. June smiled at Chen Xuan: "The matter is over. Tell me, which side did you antagonize?"
Chen Xuan shook his head with a wry smile, his tone sincere: "Senior brother, I really don't know."
June's face darkened, and she feigned reproach: "You can know that."
"I really don't know." Chen Xuan said confidently, "But don't worry, senior brother, they will come to me soon."
"Oh? Coming to see you in person?" June glanced at the warship slowly approaching in the distance, gestured for Chen Xuan to sit down, and then took out a lustrous jade talisman and put it in his hand. "Very well. Keep this talisman safe. Crush it if anything happens, and I will be there immediately."
"This... isn't this inappropriate?" Chen Xuan was startled. This Dao talisman contained the life essence of a Dao Lord in June, and was a real trump card for saving his life.
“Alas, since we are fellow disciples, we should naturally look after each other when we are out in the world.” June looked at Chen Xuan, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes – he felt that Chen Xuan’s face was inexplicably familiar, but he could not find any corresponding fragments in his memory. He felt that this person was unfathomable, so he simply took the opportunity to make this favor.
Just as Chen Xuan was about to express his gratitude, a stream of light suddenly rushed into Lou Wai Lou, into the ninth-floor private room, and disappeared into Chen Xuan's true form. This person was none other than Chen Xuan's second primordial spirit.
However, just as June was about to ask a question, her brows furrowed slightly.
As expected, several other figures with powerful auras followed closely behind.
A chilling pressure swept over, and Gu Ningbing's shrill voice, filled with arrogance and threat, echoed throughout the entire floor: "Junior, do you think you can hide in Lou Wai Lou and be safe? If you know what's good for you, quickly hand over what doesn't belong to you!"
A mere Heavenly God Realm cultivator dared to make a scene at the banquet of a powerful figure from Lou Wai Lou in 109. His confidence clearly came from the two Dao Lords from the Immortal Ancient Land and the Supreme Holy Land behind him.
He was quite happy to have found a prodigy disciple for his master in June, but as the oppressive aura from outside swept in, the smile on his face slowly disappeared.
