Cyan Lotus Island in the Tianchen Sea Area.
Inside a manor filled with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, Wang Yongqian sat in a stone pavilion. A handsome, tall young man in a white robe stood before her, with Wang Changluo standing to one side.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, we have thoroughly investigated, and the information you provided is true. I agree to you joining our Wang family. From now on, you will be a guest elder of our family, and we will provide you with cultivation techniques and secret methods for opening apertures," Wang Yongqian said.
The young man in the white robe was Ye Fusheng. He had ascended from the lower realm and landed on the Wang family's Ascension Platform.
The Wang family currently possessed three Ascension Platforms. Cultivators ascending from the lower realms to the Immortal Realm could join the Wang family, serving as new blood.
"Many thanks, Immortaless Wang!" Ye Fusheng said, cupping his hands. The Wang family had multiple Golden Immortal cultivators and was powerful; it was good to take shelter under a big tree.
"Changming, take Fellow Daoist Ye to arrange a new immortal abode for him. Then, take him to the Scripture Pavilion to select a cultivation technique. Also, have the Divine Weapon Hall help elevate Fellow Daoist Ye's natal treasure to a natal immortal artifact," Wang Yongqian instructed.
"Yes, Family Head," Wang Changluo replied, then led Ye Fusheng away.
Wang Yongqian took out a golden magic disk and infused it with a spell. Wang Mengbin's voice sounded: "Family Head, is the Old Ancestor on Cyan Lotus Island?"
"Yes, he is! What's wrong?" Wang Yongqian paused slightly, surprised.
"Good, then it's fine. Nothing serious, but we acquired something good and are bringing it back to the Old Ancestor," Wang Mengbin said, then cut off the connection.
Wang Qingfeng, Ye Haitang, and Wang Mengbin stood above Cyan Lotus Peak. Below them was a vast sea of green mist, obscuring the view of what lay within.
The green mist churned and rolled, revealing a sprawling manor. Wang Changsheng sat in a green stone pavilion.
"Qingfeng, come in!" Wang Changsheng said.
He was in seclusion, comprehending laws, when he unexpectedly received a sound transmission talisman from Wang Qingfeng. Wang Yang had checked the talisman's message before notifying Wang Changsheng. During Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan's seclusion, their spirit beasts stood watch, only notifying them for significant matters.
The three of them flew down and landed before Wang Changsheng. Wang Qingfeng took out an exquisite red jade box and handed it to Wang Changsheng.
"Father, this is something that Seventh Brother, Haitang, and Yingjie obtained from an ancient tomb," Wang Qingfeng said.
"An ancient tomb!" Wang Changsheng took the red jade box and opened it. Inside were a golden token and a black jade slip.
"Golden Kylin Token!" A hint of surprise flashed in Wang Changsheng's eyes. He picked up the jade slip, immersed his divine sense into it, and gasped.
"Daoist Art: Soul-Subduing Melody!" Wang Changsheng's expression became excited.
He had previously used Daoist Arts and understood their power.
The Soul-Subduing Melody was a large-scale offensive Daoist Art that could only be played by sound cultivators who had mastered the Law of Soul. Wang Ruyan was perfectly suited for it.
The only drawback was that they lacked the Origin Item.
"Seventh Brother asked the three of us to personally escort it back, fearing any mishaps, so that we could deliver it into your hands ourselves. Now we can rest easy. Oh, and there's also the corpse of a Seven-Colored Chaos Beast," Wang Qingfeng said with a smile, taking out a green storage bracelet and handing it to Wang Changsheng.
"The corpse of a Seven-Colored Chaos Beast!" Wang Changsheng's eyes lit up. Now, they had the means for a mid-grade Immortal Slaying Arrow.
"Is everything alright on Chaos Continent? Have the Chaos Beasts attacked the city?" Wang Changsheng asked. Calculating the time, it was almost time for a tide of Chaos Beasts to erupt on the Chaos Continent.
"Nothing significant. When we returned, there was no tide of Chaos Beasts," Ye Haitang replied.
"You've had a long journey; rest well." Wang Changsheng chatted with them for a while, and then they left to rest.
"Golden Kylin Token!" Wang Changsheng muttered to himself, holding the Golden Kylin Token.
The Golden Kylin Elder had been famous for many years. With a Golden Kylin Token, one could request him to perform a divination once.
He took out a blue-glowing magic disk, infused it with a spell, and asked: "Yongqian, are there any unusual movements from the Murong family or the Qian family?"
"No. Oh, by the way, Old Ancestor, the Shangguan family from the Skyfire Sea Area sent a message saying that True Lord Sky Puppet perished while out on business," Wang Yongqian replied.
"Perished? Did a cultivator from the Shangguan family witness it personally?" Wang Changsheng asked, puzzled. He had no conflicts with the Shangguan family, so there was no reason for them to deceive him.
"No, True Lord Sky Puppet left a natal soul lamp at the Shangguan family. When the natal soul lamp extinguished, he naturally died," Wang Yongqian said.
The Northern Sea Immortal Realm was vast, and the death of a Golden Immortal cultivator was not uncommon.
"Understood. Also, send someone to investigate the whereabouts of the Golden Kylin Elder," Wang Changsheng instructed.
Given the example of True Lord Sky Puppet, he decided it was best to find the Golden Kylin Elder as soon as possible and have him perform a divination. Otherwise, if the Golden Kylin Elder died, he wouldn't be able to help him with the divination.
"Yes, Old Ancestor," Wang Yongqian affirmed.
Wang Changsheng entered a secret chamber, where the Cyan Lotus Creation Cauldron floated above a formation.
He formed a hand seal, and the Cyan Lotus Creation Cauldron flew towards him, landing before him.
He took out the corpse of the Seven-Colored Chaos Beast, peeled off its hide, and collected its essence blood and teeth.
He opened his mouth and spat out a stream of snow-blue flames, which settled at the bottom of the Cyan Lotus Creation Cauldron. The Glazed Ice Flame was already a second-tier immortal flame, significantly increasing the efficiency of artifact refining. He then dropped the Chaos Beast's teeth into the cauldron and closed the lid.
The power of a mid-grade Immortal Slaying Arrow was far greater than that of a mid-grade Immortal Slaying Cannon, and its destructive range was also very wide.
If the family possessed a mid-grade Immortal Slaying Arrow, the Wang family would be able to cope even if the Murong family and the Qian family initiated a war.
He wanted to ask the Golden Kylin Elder for a divination, but first, he needed to find him. Such matters could be entrusted to the younger generation.
In Chiyan Market, people bustled through the streets, and the clamor was ceaseless.
Inside a secluded manor, Murong Yuxue was speaking with Murong Yunfeng.
"Sell us some low-grade Immortal Slaying Arrows? Would the Five Immortal Sect be so benevolent?" Murong Yunfeng asked, frowning.
The Cao family and the Five Immortal Sect were rivals, and the Murong family was subordinate to the Cao family, so getting too close to the Five Immortal Sect was not a good idea.
"Of course they aren't that benevolent; they have a condition: they want Old Ancestor Tianyan to perform a divination for Fellow Daoist Qin of the Five Immortal Sect," Murong Yuxue explained.
"Hmph, they want Tianyan to perform a divination for just a few low-grade Immortal Slaying Arrows? What do they take a Golden Immortal diviner for? A mid-grade Immortal Slaying Arrow would be more like it," Murong Yunfeng scoffed derisively.
"That's what I told them. They can't provide it, but they said they are willing to give a mid-grade Chaos Armor," Murong Yuxue replied.
"A mid-grade Chaos Armor!" Murong Yunfeng was somewhat tempted. The Murong family's immortal artifact refiners had attempted to forge Chaos Armor before, but the failure rate was too high, forcing them to give up.
"Contact Fellow Daoist Qin. With a mid-grade Chaos Armor plus some low-grade Immortal Slaying Arrows, it would be acceptable to ask Tianyan to perform a divination for him," Murong Yunfeng instructed.
"Yes, Old Ancestor Yunfeng," Murong Yuxue replied. Then, as if remembering something, she added, "Oh, when I was returning, I ran into True Lord Zixiao and two others. Three Golden Immortal cultivators returning to the Tianchen Sea Area together. I wonder if they acquired something good."
"Just have Youming keep an eye on it. It would be best if he can find out, but the most urgent matter is to acquire the mid-grade Chaos Armor and Immortal Slaying Arrows. Also, this matter must not be publicized; it needs to be kept confidential," Murong Yunfeng warned.
The Cao family hadn't sold them mid-grade Chaos Armor or Immortal Slaying Arrows. Given their own interests, if news spread that they were purchasing these from the Five Immortal Sect, it would be hard to guarantee that the Cao family wouldn't become suspicious.
"Yes, Old Ancestor Yunfeng," Murong Yuxue agreed, accepting the order and departing.
Murong Yunfeng took out a golden magic disk, infused it with a spell, and instructed: "Youming, investigate the purpose of True Lord Zixiao and the other two returning to the Tianchen Sea Area. See if the Wang family acquired anything good."
"Yes, Old Ancestor Yunfeng," came Murong Youming's voice from the magic disk.
Murong Yunfeng put away the golden magic disk, a smug smile appearing on his face. He muttered to himself, "Heaven blesses my Murong family. With Tianyan here, our Murong family will never lack opportunities."
