Chapter 4291: False News

Since Wang Changsheng did not destroy his Nascent Soul, Qin Xin was still alive, which made it difficult for him to transmit information to his sect.

Wang Changsheng nodded and said, "Have Chuanming inquire about Haotian Palace. The chance of Fiery Sun Immortal Monarch coming to us is low, but we still need to be prepared."

The Wang family was related by marriage to the Nangong Immortal Clan. Without significant benefits, other forces in the Beihai Immortal Realm had no reason to target the Wang family. However, forces from other immortal realms were different. Since their influence wasn't in the Beihai Immortal Realm, even if they dealt with the Wang family, would the Nangong Immortal Clan really travel to the Barren Immortal Realm to confront Haotian Palace?

Furthermore, they had entered the Qiankun Ruins to search for treasure in their early years and were pursued by a Taiyi Golden Immortal. This individual knew they possessed Dao techniques, so they also needed to eliminate this person.

Wang Changsheng's mastery of the Soul Law already made opposing Taiyi Golden Immortals wary. If he also mastered Dao techniques, even Da Luo Golden Immortals would be tempted.

They had discussed Dao techniques with Fang Xiong and Xue Yan. Even among the disciples of the Kunlun Dao Ancestor, not many Taiyi Golden Immortals mastered Dao techniques. This was mainly because cultivating Dao techniques required an object of origin, and obtaining such an object was not easy.

Wang Changsheng's comprehension of the Soul Law could be attributed to the Soul Cultivation Method. Other Taiyi Golden Immortals who cultivated the same method had not managed to comprehend the Soul Law, and there was nothing others could do about it. Dao techniques were different; as long as one met the cultivation conditions and possessed an object of origin, they could cultivate them.

"By the way, dear, didn't you refine an immortal island? Is it finished?"

Wang Ruyan recalled something and asked.

"It's finished," Wang Changsheng replied. "It requires pure crystal cores from an eight-colored Chaos Beast at the Taiyi Golden Immortal stage to provide energy for the immortal island to operate." Wang Changsheng explained that the immortal island was refined with spatial materials, and its area far surpassed Qinglian Island in Tianchen Sea Domain. Accommodating tens of millions of cultivators would be a minor matter.

"It needs pure eight-colored crystal cores for energy? Isn't that requirement too high?"

Wang Ruyan said with a frown.

"Besides Chaos Beast crystal cores, some special heavenly materials and earthly treasures can also provide energy. However, the latter are rarer, but it's not a problem for now." Wang Changsheng mentioned that the immortal island was also refined with temporal materials, making it even more advanced than an immortal battleship.

"It seems the immortal island is of a very high grade, requiring eight-colored crystal cores to function. No wonder the Myriad Treasures Sect's main headquarters is an immortal island."

Wang Ruyan commented.

Wang Changsheng nodded. After a brief chat, they went about their separate tasks.

News that the Qinglian Immortals were holding a Taiyi Grand Ceremony quickly spread. The Wang family dispatched many clan members to send invitations, widely inviting guests.

In Yunqiang City, the streets were bustling with people and traffic.

On a less crowded street, there were many buildings, including a three-story azure pavilion with "Qingyan Pavilion" written in silver characters on its plaque. The main gate was closed.

Inside a secret room in Qingyan Pavilion, Sun Yan sat on a red cushion, holding a red immortal transmission mirror. Yu Weiwei's face was visible on its surface.

"The Qinglian Immortals are holding a Taiyi Grand Ceremony. Wang Qiuting probably won't miss this opportunity. If she can obtain something good to offer to them, it will surely be a great merit," Sun Yan said. After leaving Qinglian City, he had come to Yunqiang City and had been staying there for about half a month.

"She wouldn't ask the Qinglian Immortals to break the restriction, would she?" Yu Weiwei said with some concern.

"Impossible. Divine Lord Ziyuan was only a Golden Immortal cultivator and indeed existed. If it were you, and you found the cultivation cave of a Grand Perfection Golden Immortal, would you ask a Taiyi Golden Immortal to intervene? Isn't it better to break the restriction yourself and monopolize the treasures?" Sun Yan stated with certainty.

He took out an immortal transmission mirror that glowed with a faint green light. The mirror trembled slightly.

"Someone's contacting me; it might be Wang Qiuting. I'll stop here for now." Sun Yan disconnected the call, put away the red immortal transmission mirror, and cast a spell into the green one. Wang Qiuting's face appeared on the mirror's surface.

"Fairy Wang, how is it? Have you opened the Heavenly Mechanism Casket?" Sun Yan feigned curiosity.

"I opened it. There wasn't even a single immortal artifact inside, Fellow Daoist Sun. You're quite the businessman! You got a Heavenly Mechanism Casket, put some random things inside, and exchanged it for four items." Wang Qiuting said with a frown.

"Fairy Wang, I swear on my inner demon that I truly never opened the Heavenly Mechanism Casket. I can only say your luck was bad. At most, I can return the mid-grade immortal artifact to you; I've already consumed the pills," Sun Yan said. He indeed hadn't opened the Heavenly Mechanism Casket; Yu Weiwei had put the items inside.

"No need. We agreed it was an exchange, so it's an exchange. I'll just consider myself unlucky," Wang Qiuting said.

"Fairy Wang, what exactly was inside? There's no need to store worthless things in a Heavenly Mechanism Casket!" Sun Yan asked curiously, pretending to be completely unaware.

"The last words of a Golden Immortal cultivator. This person was from the Jinhua Clan," Wang Qiuting said.

"Jinhua Clan?" Sun Yan looked thoughtful, recalling, and after a moment of contemplation, said, "I haven't heard of them. There are too many races in the Immortal Realm."

"If you haven't heard of them, then you haven't. That's all." After Wang Qiuting finished speaking, she disconnected the call.

Sun Yan let out a long breath of relief, took out the red immortal transmission mirror, and cast a spell into it. Yu Weiwei's face appeared on the mirror's surface.

"It was indeed Wang Qiuting. She contacted me to ask about the Heavenly Mechanism Casket." Sun Yan briefly recounted the content of his conversation with Wang Qiuting.

"It seems she has already located the ancient cultivator's cave, but she was worried it might be fake, which is why she consulted you. She should be setting off soon," Yu Weiwei said excitedly.

"With Fellow Daoist Li and the others cooperating with you, capturing her won't be a problem. Once you succeed, immediately send her to Fellow Daoist Yang, and Fellow Daoist Yang will deliver her to the Chaos Beast territory," Sun Yan instructed. To trap Wang Qiuting, the Chaos Beasts had dispatched many secret agents who had been lying in wait for years.

"Understood. Don't leave Yunqiang City yet, to avoid raising suspicion," Yu Weiwei advised.

"Don't worry, I've already planned my escape strategy; it won't raise their suspicions. Once she reaches her destination, contact me immediately," Sun Yan instructed. As soon as Wang Qiuting reached her destination, he would immediately flee. If Yu Weiwei failed, it wouldn't implicate him.

"Understood. That's all for now." Yu Weiwei agreed and disconnected the call.

"Wang Qiuting! Hmph, what an idiot, falling for it so easily. The Sword Venerable Qinglian's only daughter is nothing special after all," Sun Yan muttered to himself, his face full of smugness.

Qinglian City, Qingzhu Peak.

Wang Qiuting was reporting the situation to Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan. She had deliberately contacted Sun Yan to make him believe she had fallen into the trap.

"Ninth Uncle, we can depart now," Wang Qiuting said.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan's features blurred, and their appearances changed.

Wang Qiuting conjured a golden, shimmering flying boat that floated in mid-air. Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan boarded, standing at the rear, while Wang Qiuting stood at the front.

With a flick of her spell, the golden flying boat glowed with golden light and soared into the sky, leaving Qinglian City. Many cultivators witnessed its departure.
