Chapter 4274: Leave the Fire Gun

The Nangong Immortal Clan attached great importance to this celebration, widely inviting guests. Many major powers sent representatives, and numerous high-level rogue cultivators attended, including Grand Unity Golden Immortals who had mastered Supreme Laws.

"Other Supremes! How many are there?" Wang Changsheng became interested.

"According to Fellow Daoist Nangong, there were two Grand Unity Golden Immortals who had mastered Supreme Laws," Wang Ruyan said. "That was half a month ago; perhaps there are more now."

Wang Changsheng nodded and asked about the family's recent situation. Wang Ruyan answered truthfully.

The Chaos Beasts had been well-behaved in recent years, not attacking Qinglian City or its subordinate settlements. Benefiting from the cultivation resources of the Hulan Mountain Range, the Wang family developed rapidly. In over a millennium, the number of Golden Immortal cultivators increased by ten, and the number of True Immortal cultivators grew even more significantly. This was also a result of joint management with the Chu and Cao families.

Many immortal cultivation families sought marriage alliances with the Wang family, and a large number of high-level rogue cultivators wished to pledge allegiance. After rigorous screening, the Wang family formed alliances with several such families, extending their influence across thirty-six sea regions. Five new family merchant fleets were established, procuring cultivation resources from these thirty-six sea regions and then transporting them elsewhere for sale.

The Wang family's immortal puppets, Immortal-Slaying Arrows, Immortal-Slaying Cannons, and Chaos Armor were highly sought after by various powers. The Wang family leveraged these strategic materials to acquire many rare resources, such as Primal Stones, Grand Unity Soul Jade, and Seven-Star Gold Marrow Divine Crystals, leading to a flourishing family development.

"If our family continues to develop at this pace, it will only get better and better," Wang Changsheng said. "My lady, you have also reached the Golden Immortal Great Perfection stage. If you advance to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage, the safety of Qinglian City will be even more assured."

"After the Grand Luo Golden Immortal's celebration is over, I will go into seclusion to attempt to reach the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage," Wang Ruyan asked. "By the way, husband, are you able to refine high-grade immortal artifacts now?"

Wang Changsheng smiled faintly, then flipped his right hand. A red light flashed, and a long spear, shimmering with red light and emitting terrifying immortal energy fluctuations, appeared in his grasp. It was the Leaving Fire Spear, a high-grade immortal artifact!

He had cultivated the "Eight Desolations Immortal-Slaying Fist" to the seventh level, mastering seven stances. This was primarily because he had only mastered seven types of laws, thus limiting him to seven stances.

Having mastered new divine abilities, Wang Changsheng began to refine high-grade immortal artifacts.

The Qinglian Mountain Range contained a large-scale third-order immortal mine of Jinlang Divine Crystals. This material was typically refined into immortal artifacts to enhance their power. They regularly submitted a portion of the raw Jinlang Divine Crystals, retaining the rest for their own use. Additionally, the miniature Primal Stone mine was jointly controlled by the Wang, Cao, and Chu families, with all excavated Primal Stones belonging to them.

The Nangong Immortal Clan independently controlled a small-scale Primal Stone mine, whose reserves far exceeded that of the miniature Primal Stone mine.

Given the Wang family's foundation, presenting a high-grade immortal artifact as a congratulatory gift was already very valuable and showed great respect to the Nangong Immortal Clan.

"High-grade immortal artifact! Can primordial spirit treasures be refined into immortal artifacts now?" Wang Ruyan asked.

"I still can't refine them into the Sea-Stabilizing Beads," Wang Changsheng said, "but I have already upgraded the Sea-Stabilizing Beads to high-grade immortal artifacts."

The Sea-Stabilizing Beads were a set of immortal artifacts, making it quite difficult to upgrade their grade simultaneously. If a primordial spirit treasure were to be refined into a single immortal artifact, Wang Changsheng would be highly confident of success, but refining it into a set of immortal artifacts would be much harder.

Wang Ruyan suddenly realized, "It is indeed more difficult for a set of immortal artifacts. If successful, the power of the Sea-Stabilizing Beads could be significantly enhanced."

"Has Fellow Daoist Xu not emerged from seclusion yet?" Wang Changsheng asked, noting that Qinglian City required a Grand Unity Golden Immortal to guard it.

"Not yet," Wang Ruyan said. "I sent him a voice transmission talisman. Old Ancestor Chu Tianfeng from the Chu family has arrived, intending to represent the Chu family at the Grand Luo celebration. Cao Mingjing came to substitute for Cao Yuanxing, as Cao Yuanxing has gone to Tianfeng City for a Grand Luo celebration. The Chaos Beasts shouldn't cause trouble at this time; with several Supremes present, causing trouble now would have severe consequences."

Wang Changsheng nodded and said, "Let's hope so! Let's head to Tianfeng City!"

The city had a direct teleportation array leading to Tianfeng City, ensuring that if the Chaos Beasts attacked, the Nangong Immortal Clan's reinforcements could arrive with the utmost speed.

Wang Ruyan took out a blue-glowing spell disk and cast a spell into it. Wang Qingcheng's voice rang out: "Mother, what are your instructions?"

"Have Qing Shan and the others gone to Tianfeng City?" Wang Ruyan asked.

Wang Qingshan, Wang Qingbai, Wang Qingling, Wang Qiulin, and several other Golden Immortals had already gone to Tianfeng City to meet other Golden Immortal cultivators and expand their social circle.

"They have all gone," Wang Qingcheng asked, "Do you need me to call them back?"

"No, that's not necessary," Wang Ruyan instructed. "We are preparing to go to Tianfeng City. Gather some True Immortal clansmen and depart with us in half an hour."

The Nangong Immortal Clan had invited many powers to the celebration, which was a great opportunity for the younger generation to expand their social circle and broaden their horizons.

"Understood," Wang Qingcheng agreed.

Wang Ruyan put away the spell disk and followed Wang Changsheng to the Divine Mechanism Immortal Lord statue. She lit a stick of sandalwood incense and placed it in the censer.

"Rest assured, Feng'er, Father will revive you as soon as possible," Wang Changsheng said. Wang Qingfeng had contributed significantly to his ability to advance to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage.

"Father, your child trusts you," the Divine Mechanism Immortal Lord statue spoke.

This statue was crafted from Soul-Awakening Divine Clay, allowing it to speak.

The Wang family had refined hundreds of Divine Mechanism Immortal Lord statues using Soul-Awakening Divine Clay. Most were enshrined in the Wang family's territory, while a smaller portion was sent to the lower realms, existing in both the Spirit and Mortal Realms, spanning multiple planes. Billions of beings worshipped the Divine Mechanism Immortal Lord statues, leading to flourishing incense offerings.

Half an hour later, Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan arrived at a vast bluestone plaza. On the plaza stood a magnificent, golden palace, its plaque bearing the three golden characters "Heavenly Lotus Palace." The teleportation array leading to Tianfeng City was located inside the Heavenly Lotus Palace.

Over a hundred immortals were gathered at the entrance of the Heavenly Lotus Palace, and Wang Qingcheng was also among them.

"Let's go!" Wang Changsheng said. "Join us in Tianfeng City for the Grand Luo Golden Immortal's celebration. Opportunities like this are rare." After speaking, he and Wang Ruyan strode into the Heavenly Lotus Palace, with Wang Qingcheng and the others following closely.

In Tianfeng City, within a magnificent hall, there were over a dozen large-scale teleportation arrays.

One teleportation array glowed with dazzling golden light. As the golden light faded, the figures of Wang Changsheng and his group appeared.

A hubbub of voices drifted in from outside the hall; they could see cultivators walking past the entrance.

Wang Changsheng and his group walked out, appearing on a bustling street.

The Wang family members dispersed, each going their own way. Tianfeng City was very safe; the Wang family had also opened two shops there and rented a manor for traveling clansmen to rest.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan strolled along the street. As they passed an intersection, a tall young man in black robes swiftly approached, bowed respectfully, and politely asked, "Senior, are you Immortal Lord Taihao?"

"Indeed. And you are?" Wang Changsheng asked.

Demonic energy surged from the black-robed youth, clearly indicating he was from the Demon Race.

"This junior is Liu Huang," the black-robed youth introduced himself, stating his purpose. "By the Palace Master's order, I wish to invite Senior for a discussion."

"Palace Master?" Wang Changsheng asked. "What is their name, and how should they be addressed?"

"Demon Lord Xuanfu," Liu Huang said. "The Palace Master mentioned that Senior Wang might have heard his other name—Saint Ancestor Xuanfu."
