Chapter 4486: Requesting Help from the Tribe

In the Fire Glass Sea, the sun was setting, and the lingering glow of the sunset cast its light upon the sea.

In a certain area of the sea, the surface churned and surged as a figure flew out, revealing a robust man in a blue shirt. Judging by his aura, he was a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

The burly man in blue flew towards a nearby small island and, with a flash, landed in a small valley surrounded by mountains on three sides. Inside the valley was a cave about ten feet wide, which the man entered. Not long after, he reached the end, arriving in a cavern approximately an acre in size.

The robust man's facial features blurred, then resolved into his true appearance: Wang Lin. He flicked his sleeve, summoning the Four Seasons Map, which then hung on the wall. A brilliant blue light emanated from Wang Lin's body as he entered the Four Seasons Map, arriving at the entrance of the Azure Lotus Hall.

Wang Tunian, Wang Yang, Wang Mengli, Wang Chan, and others stood at the doorway with solemn expressions.

"How is he? Has Master gotten any better?" Wang Lin asked with concern.

Wang Changsheng had observed the situation in the market city and instructed Wang Ruyan to hide inside the Four Seasons Map. He then took the map and fought his way out. Using two Daoist techniques, he managed to escape, though he was severely wounded by the Blazing Sun Immortal Lord. He entered the Four Seasons Map to heal, while Wang Lin fled with the map.

"His life is not in danger; he's recuperating. Wang Lin, where are you now?" Wang Ruyan's voice rang out as she emerged.

Escaping alone from a Grand Luo Golden Immortal was less strenuous. Wang Changsheng had told her to hide in the Four Seasons Map while he confronted the Blazing Sun Immortal Lord by himself.

"I'm currently on a deserted island in the Fire Glass Sea," Wang Lin replied truthfully.

They had been cornered once and dared not enter the market city again.

"Tunian, go out and flee with the Four Seasons Map. Leave the Fire Glass Sea immediately. You will take turns carrying the map to escape; you cannot stay long in one place. We won't go out ourselves, to avoid the Blazing Sun Immortal Lord sensing our aura, and we'll wait for Qiulin to arrive," Wang Ruyan instructed.

The Blazing Sun Immortal Lord recognized Wang Changsheng as the one whom the Green Plum Immortal Lord had teleported away. However, it was fortunate that the Blazing Sun Immortal Lord had not yet discovered Wang Ruyan's presence. The Blazing Sun Immortal Lord had recognized him by his aura and did not know their true identities. Wang Huanyu and Wang Chan had returned to the Northern Sea Immortal Realm to see if Wang Qiulin had any other solutions, as continuous evasion was not a sustainable strategy.

"Yes, Mistress," Wang Tunian agreed.

Wang Ruyan gave a few more instructions before Wang Tunian left the Four Seasons Map.

"You should all go back and rest now! Just take turns. Oh, and keep an eye out for valuable artifact refining materials," Wang Ruyan said. If they could acquire precious artifact refining materials, it might awaken Qingxuan and allow him to act against the diviner once more.

Wang Lin and the others agreed and entered the Azure Lotus Hall to rest.

In a secret chamber, Wang Changsheng sat cross-legged on a cyan stone bed. His clothes were stained with blood, yet there was not a single visible wound or even a bloodstain on his body. His immortal body possessed strong regenerative abilities. Wang Changsheng had consumed Golden Lotus Brew, a third-tier immortal wine for healing, so his life was no longer in danger, but he would need a period of quiet recovery to fully recuperate. Had he not cultivated an immortal body, Wang Changsheng would have been killed.

Wang Changsheng's eyes were slightly closed, and his body was enveloped in a blue light. The Azure Lotus Creation Cauldron lay motionless not far in front of him. Until Qingxuan awakened, they could only evade the Blazing Sun Immortal Lord. The Immortal Realm was vast, and even if a diviner could deduce their general location, as long as they constantly changed positions, it would be difficult for the Blazing Sun Immortal Lord to find Wang Changsheng.

Wang Tunian put away the Four Seasons Map, walked out of the cave, transformed into a yellow light, and pierced through the air, disappearing into the horizon with a flash.

On the Chaotic Continent, there was a continuous stretch of lush green mountains. Murong Bing stood at the peak of a tall mountain, gazing solemnly at the thunderclouds in the sky. Wang Chuanming was attempting to break through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage, and she was personally protecting him.

Wang Chuanming had followed Sun Hai to the Chaotic Continent. He hadn't achieved great merits nor made serious mistakes. Having cultivated to the peak of the Golden Immortal stage, he was now attempting to reach the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage, with Murong Bing acting as his protector. The Wang family could also send someone to protect Wang Chuanming, but if the Yama Palace discovered them, Wang Chuanming's identity would be exposed. Murong Bing was Wang Chuanming's referrer, so her protecting him was perfectly justifiable.

Rumbling thunder sounded, accompanied by flashes of lightning. Thick bolts of six-colored immortal lightning struck down, creating billowing waves of energy.

After the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, the thundercloud was still several tens of feet in size. Murong Bing frowned slightly and turned her head to look into the distance. A blue light flew over, stopped with a flash, revealing Sun Hai's figure.

"Fellow Daoist Sun, why have you come?" Murong Bing asked, puzzled.

"I heard Fellow Daoist Song is attempting to reach the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage. Since I have nothing else to do, I came to take a look," Sun Hai replied.

"Just 'to take a look' because you have nothing else to do? Fellow Daoist Sun seems quite leisurely," Murong Bing said with a meaningful tone.

Sun Hai hesitated slightly, then said, "I received news that the Snow Tusk Clan once dispatched six Golden Immortal cultivators to assassinate young Fellow Daoist Song, but he killed them all in retaliation. He never mentioned this matter."

"Six Golden Immortals attacked him, and he killed them all? How did you find out?" Murong Bing asked, surprised.

"The Snow Tusk Clan has never given up searching for him. Our people encountered some Snow Tusk cultivators during a mission, and after killing a few of them, we learned this information," Sun Hai explained. He didn't understand why Song Dongli would conceal this. If he possessed a treasure, concealing it would be understandable, but if there were other reasons, they needed to be investigated.

"Let's wait until he passes his lightning tribulation. A little time won't hurt. Speaking of which, the Snow Tusk cultivators never gave up searching for him, so how is it that we only just found out?" Murong Bing asked, puzzled.

"Some of the Snow Tusk cultivators who knew about this went to the underground city on the Chaotic Continent for a mission. Unexpectedly, the Golden Insect King Tribe and Heavenly Witch City engaged in a full-scale war, and all those Snow Tusk cultivators perished. The Snow Tusk Clan suffered heavy losses and a significant drop in strength, so they couldn't spare the effort to search for him. If our people hadn't coincidentally killed a few Snow Tusk cultivators and soul-searched them, we wouldn't have known about this," Sun Hai explained.

Murong Bing suddenly understood. A deafening clap of thunder sounded as the six-colored thundercloud transformed into a gigantic six-colored lightning phoenix. With a gentle flap of its wings, it swooped down from high above, plummeting towards the ground. A thick golden light shot up into the sky, piercing through the body of the six-colored lightning phoenix. The lightning phoenix's body exploded, transforming into a massive sphere of six-colored lightning that enveloped a large area.

Before the lightning dissipated, a joyous peal of laughter rang out. A golden light flew out from the six-colored lightning and, with a flash, landed in front of Murong Bing and Sun Hai. It was Wang Chuanming, who had successfully advanced to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Song!" Murong Bing congratulated Wang Chuanming.

Sun Hai also offered his congratulations, then changed his tone and asked about Wang Chuanming killing the six Snow Tusk Clan members in retaliation. Wang Chuanming's right hand glowed brightly with golden light, and a high-grade Immortal Annihilation Cannon appeared. He said, "Fellow Daoist Sun, is this explanation reasonable?"

"A high-grade Immortal Annihilation Cannon!" Sun Hai exclaimed in surprise, his face full of envy.

"So that's it. No wonder the Snow Tusk cultivators were no match for you. However, Fellow Daoist Song, now that you've advanced to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage, according to our rules, a special person will come to examine you before you can be given access to more confidential information," Sun Hai said.

"An upright person fears no slander! Let them investigate!" Wang Chuanming said indifferently.

"Alright, Fellow Daoist Song has just advanced to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage and needs proper recuperation. Let's head back now!" Murong Bing said.

Sun Hai had no objections, and the three of them left the area.
