Kunyuan Continent, Tianyue Mountain Range.
The Tianyue Tribe's stronghold had been breached by powerful enemies, resulting in heavy casualties. Two Mahayana cultivators, who were away traveling, managed to escape the catastrophe. After more than ten thousand years of recovery and recuperation, the Tianyue Tribe now boasted four Mahayana cultivators. However, their strength was significantly diminished compared to their past; notably, the Tianyue Tribe currently possessed no Profound Heaven Treasures.
Xun Yue was the Tianyue Tribe member with the highest cultivation, having reached the mid-Mahayana stage.
In a quiet manor, a graceful young woman in a silver dress and Xun Yue sat within a blue stone pavilion, deep in conversation.
"We've finally contacted Elder Gou," the young woman in the silver dress said excitedly. "Our kin in the Immortal Realm now have a Golden Immortal cultivator among them, granting them some influence in the Sky Morning Sea Domain."
Xun Yue nodded and said, "Indeed! It's said our ancestor perished on the Chaotic Continent, which led to our Tianyue Tribe's strength plummeting for so many years. It's truly a relief that we finally have a Golden Immortal cultivator again. It's a pity they can't descend to the lower realms; otherwise, even a few resources brought down would benefit us immensely."
"With a Golden Immortal cultivator in our Tianyue Tribe again," the young woman in the silver dress lamented, "when the Azure Cloud Palace assigns tasks, our people can now negotiate terms. Without a Golden Immortal, we would simply have to comply with whatever the Azure Cloud Palace demanded."
Xun Yue took out a silver-glowing magic disc and injected a spell into it. An excited female voice rang out: "Elder! Great news, truly tremendous news! Fragments of the Immortal Realm have appeared in the Tianyue Mountain Range, right on our doorstep! Heaven bless our Tianyue Tribe!"
"What? Immortal Realm fragments have appeared? Let's go, let's go see!" Xun Yue's face lit up with joy, and she flew out.
A colossal gate of light floated high in the sky, within which ethereal images of true spirits like celestial dragons and phoenixes could be seen. "Haha, this is wonderful! Our Tianyue Tribe's destiny has arrived!" Xun Yue exclaimed, trembling with excitement.
"Our Wang family's destiny has arrived as well!" A pleasant female voice drifted from the horizon.
A streak of green light appeared high in the sky, flickering once before stopping. It was a gigantic blue ship, over three hundred zhang long, and on its deck stood Wang Yidao, God-Blessed Monarch, Wang Xiuling, Wang Xiulong, Wang Yangsheng, Liu Yushuang, and others.
Wang Qiulin had divined for God-Blessed Monarch, foretelling a great opportunity for him on the Kunyuan Continent. Consequently, Wang Yidao, accompanied by Wang Xiuling and others, and carrying valuable treasures, followed God-Blessed Monarch to the Kunyuan Continent.
"Ancestor Qiulin's divination was incredibly accurate!" Wang Xiuling exclaimed excitedly. "No wonder so many major powers wish to cultivate diviners."
Xun Yue's face was filled with apprehension as she looked at the Azure Lotus.
"Fellow Daoist Gou," Wang Xiuling said with a smile, "we mean no harm. However, opportunities are for those who find them. We intend to enter the Immortal Realm fragments to seek treasures; you have no objections, do you?"
"No objections, Fairy Wang. Please proceed as you wish." How could Xun Yue dare to refuse them entry? The Tianyue Tribe had no deep-seated enmity with the Wang family, so there was no need to obstruct Wang Xiuling and her group. Besides, even if she wanted to, she couldn't stop them.
"Enter!" Wang Yidao commanded.
Wang Yangsheng made a hand seal, and the Azure Lotus immediately glowed with dazzling green light, flying into the nine-colored gate of light.
"Ever since the true spirits escaped from the Immortal Realm fragments," the young woman in the silver dress wondered aloud, "the intervals between the fragments' appearances have become shorter and shorter. They've appeared again after just over ten thousand years and will last for about a year. I wonder if anything else will change."
"That's not our concern right now. Immediately gather some experts to follow me into the Immortal Realm fragments to seek treasures. Do not confront the Wang family; try to avoid them as much as possible. We cannot afford to provoke them," Xun Yue instructed.
"That's strange," the young woman in the silver dress mused, her face full of confusion. "It's as if the Wang family knew the Immortal Realm fragments would appear here. Their cultivators arrived the moment the fragments manifested." She then took out a silver-glowing magic disc, injected a spell, and made some gestures.
"I heard the Wang family has a diviner who is highly proficient in the art of divination," Xun Yue remarked. "Even Mysterious Mechanism Monarch often exchanges divination insights with him," she added with praise.
Xun Yue speculated, then, recalling something, said, "I've heard our elders in the Immortal Realm mention that the Murong family in the Sky Morning Sea Domain has a Golden Immortal stage diviner. They divined that they had a great opportunity on the Chaotic Continent and consequently dispatched most of their experts there. It's rumored they acquired a high-grade immortal artifact, though I don't know if that's true."
"A Golden Immortal stage diviner is that formidable?" the young woman in the silver dress said, her face full of envy. "I wish we also had a high-level diviner!"
"The art of divination, like the way of formations, is incredibly difficult to cultivate without innate talent, even with a legacy," Xun Yue said slowly, her face filled with envy. "To some extent, diviners are even rarer than formation masters, though high-level formation masters also hold a very high status in the Immortal Realm."
The Wang family had the Azure Lotus Immortals, Azure Lotus Sword Sovereign, True Monarch Zixiao, and Overlord Saber True Monarch. Now, with a clan member proficient in divination, they had truly struck it rich.
Immortal Realm, Northern Sea Immortal Domain, Sky Morning Sea Domain.White Deer Islands, Azure Lotus Island.
In a secluded manor, Wang Ruyan and Chen Yueying sat within a blue stone pavilion, conversing. Chen Yueying had successfully ascended to the Immortal Realm, guided by Xiao Feng. She did not join the Nine Immortals Sect but instead followed Xiao Feng to Ziwei Market. Wang Moxian then piloted a flying Profound Heaven Treasure, bringing Chen Yueying to the White Deer Islands.
"Senior Sister Chen, please make yourself at home on Azure Lotus Island for now and first master your new divine abilities," Wang Ruyan said warmly.
Ni Tianlong, Gongsun Yang, Sun Tianhu, Li Tianhe, Li Qinghuan, Ni Wuting, Four Seasons Sword Sovereign, Lan Fukong, Ci Lei, and others had all consumed Soul Cleansing Pills provided by the Wang family. Chen Yueying, however, did not possess so many Soul Cleansing Pills. Zhao Yunxiao, Cheng Zhenyu, and Zheng Nan had all ascended to the Immortal Realm alongside Chen Yueying.
Ni Tianlong had already reached the late Mahayana stage, but he was not confident in his ability to pass the Nine-Nine Heavenly Lightning Tribulation. The Wang family offered him treasures and formations to help him overcome it.
The Wang family only possessed three islands with first-rank immortal veins, so it was impossible to allocate an island with an immortal vein to Chen Yueying. Thus, Chen Yueying could only temporarily reside on Azure Lotus Island, focusing on secluded cultivation to enhance her strength before making further plans.
"Very well, I'm grateful for your hospitality, Junior Sister Wang," Chen Yueying said thankfully.
"Don't mention 'trouble' among ourselves. If not for Senior Sister Chen's care, we wouldn't be where we are today," Wang Ruyan said with a smile. She noted that some members of the Wang and Wan families had also arrived in the Immortal Realm with Chen Yueying, indirectly bolstering the Wang family's reserves.
After chatting for a while, Chen Yueying left Azure Lotus Peak and returned to the cave abode arranged by the Wang family for her cultivation.
Finding suitable formation materials could upgrade an eighth-rank spirit vein into a first-rank immortal vein. However, such materials were quite rare, and the Wang family had already dispatched people to look for them.
Wang Ruyan took out a light blue magic disc and injected a spell into it. Wang Yongqian's voice chimed: "Ancestor, Fellow Daoist Ni has passed the Nine-Nine Heavenly Lightning Tribulation and become a True Immortal!"
"Arrange a cave abode for Fellow Daoist Ni so he can cultivate in peace," Wang Ruyan instructed.
Ni Tianlong, Gongsun Yang, Chen Yueying, and Li Tianhe were all spirit body cultivators. Their strength was considerable, but they lacked high-level enlightenment secret techniques. The Wang family could win them over with high-level secret techniques, and with their help, the Wang family's burden would be lighter.
"Yes, Ancestor," Wang Yongqian replied.
Wang Ruyan put away her magic disc and walked towards a nearby pavilion. She entered a secret chamber, took out talismaking materials, and began refining immortal talismans.
