Chapter 4326: Storm Approaches

The Wang family now has six Grand Unity Golden Immortals. Three of them have mastered Dao Arts, and Wang Mengbin is stationed in the Sky Morning Sea, deterring troublemakers.

Wang Ruyan nodded. Wang Qingcheng and Sun Yuejiao have opened 104 immortal apertures and will need to spend a significant amount of time refining their immortal elemental power to prepare for their next attempt to reach the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage.

Six Grand Unity Golden Immortals are sufficient to defend a terrestrial city, but Wang Changsheng was somewhat surprised by how quiet the Chaos Beasts had been.

"It's been many years since the Hundred Tribes Assembly concluded, yet the Chahar tribe has been surprisingly well-behaved. This isn't like them at all." Wang Changsheng said, puzzled.

"Perhaps they were badly hurt last time! In that previous battle, they lost several Grand Unity Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts, including two nine-colored ones," Wang Ruyan speculated.

Grand Unity Golden Immortals are powerful fighters. The Chahar tribe suddenly lost over twenty Grand Unity Golden Immortals, and it will take hundreds of thousands of years for them to recover their vitality.

"Perhaps! It's best if they don't invade, so we can develop in peace," Wang Changsheng said.

He took out a blue, shimmering formation plate, activated a spell, and Wang Yixin's voice came through: "Ancestor, Senior Ye Xuanji has advanced to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage, and Master Miaode has also advanced. They are here to visit."

"Please invite them to Qinglian Peak immediately," Wang Changsheng instructed.

Ye Xuanji and Master Miaode shared a deep friendship with them. Wang Changsheng recalled that Ye Xuanji had been in secluded cultivation for many years, with no news of her.

"Yes, Ancestor," Wang Yixin assented.

Wang Changsheng put away the blue formation plate and wondered, "Fairy Ye has been in secluded cultivation for many years, hasn't she? Why has she only just now advanced to Grand Unity Golden Immortal? That seems too long!"

"Perhaps she advanced to Grand Unity Golden Immortal a long time ago but just didn't announce it publicly," Wang Ruyan speculated, taking out tea leaves to brew tea.

Not long after, Ye Xuanji and Master Miaode arrived.

"Long time no see, Fairy Ye, Master Miaode," Wang Changsheng greeted them with a smile.

"You've come at a good time. Try some Green Apricot Immortal Tea; we acquired it from the Myriad Immortals Alliance." Wang Ruyan picked up the teapot and poured each of them a cup.

Ye Xuanji and Master Miaode accepted without hesitation, picking up their cups and taking a large sip.

The four began to chat. Wang Ruyan's guess was correct; Ye Xuanji and Master Miaode had indeed advanced to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage long ago. They had simply been in secluded cultivation to delve deeply into the laws, which they had now fully comprehended.

"Master Miaode, when you attempted to reach Grand Unity Golden Immortal, the power of your heavenly tribulation must have been considerable!" Wang Changsheng said with a smile.

Master Miaode nodded and said, "Thanks to that Myriad Wisdom Immortal Talisman, this monk had already comprehended the laws fully before advancing to Grand Unity Golden Immortal."

The Myriad Buddha Sect boasts numerous experts. He had cultivated a peak True Spirit during his Golden Immortal stage and fully comprehended the laws, marking him as an elite within the Myriad Buddha Sect and earning him the attention of several Grand Unity Golden Immortal-stage martial uncles.

"When you hold your Grand Unity celebration, we will certainly come and have a few drinks," Wang Changsheng said, beaming.

"I don't plan to hold a celebration; there's no need. Fellow Daoist Wang, are you able to refine high-grade Chaos Armor now? Don't worry, I won't tell anyone," Ye Xuanji asked.

"This monk won't tell anyone either," Master Miaode chimed in.

Wang Changsheng thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "I can refine it now, but the success rate isn't high."

"Indeed, I knew it." Ye Xuanji let out a bitter laugh.

After so many years, she had guessed that Wang Changsheng's artifact refining skills had improved significantly; otherwise, he wouldn't have put multiple high-grade immortal artifacts up for auction.

"Fellow Daoist Wang's artifact refining skills are extraordinary! Martial Uncle Qian is our Myriad Buddha Sect's foremost immortal artifact refiner, and he only managed to refine high-grade Chaos Armor after reaching the late Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage," Master Miaode praised.

The Myriad Buddha Sect has several Grand Luo Golden Immortals and numerous experts, including many skilled artisans. However, an immortal artifact refiner as outstanding as Wang Changsheng has never appeared in the Myriad Buddha Sect before.

"You flatter me. I failed many times in order to refine a single piece of high-grade Chaos Armor," Wang Changsheng explained. What he said was true, but with the Azure Lotus Creation Cauldron's ability to restore materials, he could continue refining until he succeeded.

"Chaos Armor itself is not easy to refine. The fact that you can refine even one piece is impressive. Could you offer some pointers?" Ye Xuanji asked politely, her face full of anticipation.

Wang Changsheng nodded and briefly shared his insights on refining high-grade Chaos Armor. Ye Xuanji asked detailed questions, and Wang Changsheng patiently answered. Meanwhile, Wang Ruyan exchanged knowledge of talisman crafting with Master Miaode.

The four conversed for an entire day and night, each benefiting from the exchange.

"It's a pity there aren't enough Primordial Stones; otherwise, I could freely refine high-grade Chaos Armor," Ye Xuanji said with regret. The Ye family started relatively late, and the Wang family even later, but by taking control of the Hulun Mountain Range and its miniature Primordial Stone mine, Wang Changsheng was able to refine Chaos Armor without restraint.

"Fairy Ye is too modest. I heard that the number of immortal armored soldiers in your Ye family has increased by more than tenfold. Most of those Chaos Armors must have been refined by you!" Wang Changsheng said.

Ye Xuanji's artifact refining skill was very high. Among the many Third-tier immortal artifact refiners Wang Changsheng knew, Ye Xuanji could rank among the top three.

Ye Xuanji nodded proudly and said, "Unfortunately, I still haven't been able to refine high-grade Chaos Armor. I'll need to consult with Fellow Daoist Wang more often."

The Ye family had over five thousand immortal armored soldiers. It wasn't that they couldn't support more; rather, they lacked sufficient Primordial Stones.

"We're simply exchanging knowledge; there's no need to speak of consulting. Fairy Ye, you are too kind," Wang Changsheng said modestly. The Wang family's immortal armored soldiers already numbered over fifteen thousand, but their growth rate had slowed because the miniature Primordial Stone mine was nearly depleted.

The Nangong Immortal Clan only controlled a small-sized Primordial Stone mine, while the Chahar tribe controlled several small-sized ones.

"You've had a long journey. Please rest well first. In a few days, I'll introduce you to some fellow Daoists so everyone can exchange ideas and progress together," Wang Ruyan said.

She had Wang Yixin arrange accommodation for them, and Master Miaode and Ye Xuanji settled down in Qinglian City.

Yunmeng City, a Profound City controlled by the Chu family.

Inside a secret chamber, mysterious runes covered the stone walls. Xu Yun sat cross-legged on a green stone bed, holding a golden immortal transmission mirror in her hand, on whose surface Qin Man's face could be seen.

"A large-scale auction! Did many Grand Unity Golden Immortals attend?" Qin Man said with a frown.

"Yes, there were high-grade immortal artifacts, third-tier immortal pills, and third-tier immortal talismans, which attracted quite a few Grand Unity Golden Immortals. Qinglian City's east gate has three high-grade Immortal Extermination Cannons, while the west and south gates each have one. The north gate doesn't have a high-grade Immortal Extermination Cannon, or it might be hidden," Xu Yun said.

"You've done very well. I will send someone to deliver you a sum of cultivation resources to help you reach the Golden Immortal Great Perfection stage soon," Qin Man promised.

"Senior Qin, are you planning to attack Qinglian City?" Xu Yun asked cautiously. The Chaos Beasts had ordered her to investigate Qinglian City's defenses, and she had only managed to find out after great difficulty.

"That's not for you to ask. That's all for now. I'll contact you if anything comes up." After saying this, Qin Man cut off the connection.

Xu Yun sighed softly, a worried expression on her face. She murmured to herself, "They wouldn't attack Qinglian City at a time like this, would they? I hope I'm just overthinking things."
