Chapter 4540: Cause and Effect Pearl in Hand

The deed was already done; sending anyone to the lower realm again would be pointless.

“It’s baffling,” Jiang Bin analyzed. “Even if Immortal Lord Jiugong could deduce that Qian Qingzi was in the Golden Rock Realm, the Wang family cultivators actually managed to find Qian Qingzi before Yang Shizhi and his group. The Golden Rock Realm is not small. According to the intelligence gathered by Yang Shizhi and others, after the Wang family cultivators appeared in the Golden Rock Realm, they specifically went to places with ‘Golden Flame’ in their names. Immortal Lord Jiugong’s divination ability is clearly superior to Heavenly Weaver Immortal’s, not just by a small margin. Considering the previous incident with the Grand Unity Creation Pot, Immortal Lord Jiugong very likely comprehended the Law of Fate.”

Just in case, if Wang Qiulin truly mastered the Law of Fate, should similar incidents occur again, they would be utterly unable to compete with the Wang family.

Liu Qian’s gaze was gloomy. Though also a diviner at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage, a Grand Unity Golden Immortal who has mastered the Law of Fate is more powerful and holds a higher status.

Last time, the Nangong Immortal Clan intercepted the Grand Unity Creation Pot, and it fell into their hands. This time, the Wang family intercepted the Karma Orb, and it fell into their hands. Wang Qiulin’s involvement was evident in both incidents.

“Tell me your thoughts!” Liu Qian said.

“Immortal Lord Jiugong is a menace; it would be better to find someone to eliminate him,” Jiang Bin suggested. “We cannot personally get involved in this matter. We can find a high-level immortal skilled in curse arts to act and curse Immortal Lord Jiugong to death. Even if it fails, it will have no connection to us.”

The Myriad Beasts Palace could not personally get involved; if the matter were exposed, it would be difficult to handle.

“To curse him to death, we would need his direct descendant’s Nascent Soul or his own essence blood and hair,” Liu Qian said with a frown. “We would also need to know his specific cultivation level. Immortals with lower cultivation levels cannot curse him to death, and it would only raise his suspicions.”

“Where there’s a will, there’s a way. As long as we are determined, we will find an opportunity,” Jiang Bin said.

Liu Qian pondered for a moment, then said, “Forget it. The risk is too great. We haven’t reached the point of being mortal enemies with the Wang family. If we really kill Immortal Lord Jiugong, the Wang family will become our sworn enemies.”

Wang Qiulin is Wang Changsheng’s grandson. If the Myriad Beasts Palace hired someone to assassinate Wang Qiulin, there would be no room for reconciliation between the Myriad Beasts Palace and the Wang family. It would truly be a fight to the death.

It wasn’t that Liu Qian feared the Wang family; it was simply unnecessary. Eliminating Wang Qiulin would not bring significant benefits but would instead cause enormous trouble.

“As long as we don’t directly get involved, they shouldn’t be able to trace it back to us,” Jiang Bin said.

“No need,” Liu Qian instructed. “There are many ways to eliminate him, but we cannot be involved. Spread the news that he has mastered the Law of Fate. I believe that when the Chahar Tribe learns this news, they will certainly view the Wang family with great concern. We absolutely must not be involved, understand?”

The Myriad Beasts Palace could create obstacles, but absolutely must not participate in killing Wang Qiulin. Otherwise, the Kunlun Dao Ancestor would not spare Liu Qian lightly.

“Yes, disciple understands. I will go at once,” Jiang Bin agreed.

“Wait,” Liu Qian instructed. “Immortal Lord Taihao ascended to Grand Immortal of Great Luo so quickly. His cultivation speed is so fast, he must have had a fortuitous encounter. Spread the news that the Azure Lotus Immortal Couple received a Grand Immortal of Great Luo’s legacy. Release more false information; it’s good enough just to make the Wang family squirm.”

Jiang Bin acknowledged and left to carry out the order.

Soon, news of Immortal Lord Jiugong mastering the Law of Fate and the Wang family obtaining a Grand Immortal of Great Luo’s legacy quickly spread.

In Chahar City, within a hidden underground cave, runes flickered on the uneven stone walls.

Qu was reporting to Fu; Yu was not present.

“What? Immortal Lord Jiugong has mastered the Law of Fate!” Fu exclaimed.

If so, Immortal Lord Jiugong’s divination and deduction abilities would be even more formidable, which would not be good news for the Chahar Tribe.

“That’s how the news is spreading, but the senior members of the Wang family have not acknowledged it, refuting it as false information,” Qu said.

“The Wang family actually has three individuals who have mastered supreme laws; this has already caught up with established powers like the Nangong Immortal Clan and the Myriad Beasts Palace,” Fu’s voice was heavy.

“Rumor has it that Immortal Lord Taihao received a Grand Immortal of Great Luo’s legacy, which is why his cultivation speed is so rapid, allowing him to reach the Grand Immortal of Great Luo stage in a short time,” Qu reported. “There are even rumors that Immortal Lord Taihao possesses a top-grade immortal artifact and has mastered Dao Arts.”

The stronger the Wang family becomes, the greater the threat to the Chahar Tribe.

“Regardless of whether the news is true or false, we need to find a way to deal with Immortal Lord Taihao and Immortal Lord Jiugong,” Fu said. “The Wang family’s threat is growing.”

“The Yama Palace is no longer paying attention to us,” Qu said. “Last time, Heavenly Star Immortal killed one of our clansmen who was at the Grand Immortal of Great Luo stage. Even exposing the Yama Palace cultivators’ previous dealings with us would be useless now.”

Since the Yama Palace is unwilling to help, they cannot resolve the issues with Immortal Lord Taihao and Immortal Lord Jiugong relying on their own strength.

“Send people to gather intelligence on Immortal Lord Jiugong. It would be best if we could collect his essence blood and hair,” Fu’s voice was heavy. “I refuse to believe we won’t find an opportunity to eliminate him.”

“Yes, Lord Fu, I will arrange it immediately,” Qu said. “Unfortunately, Immortal Lord Jiugong rarely appears, so gathering information on him won’t be easy.”

“As long as we are vigilant, we will always find an opportunity,” Fu instructed.

Northern Sea Immortal Realm, Heavenly Dawn Sea.

Azure Lotus Island, Azure Lotus Peak.

Wang Changsheng sat in a green stone pavilion, holding a green orb in his hand, as Wang Yongqian reported to him.

After Wang Xiaolong and others returned to Azure Lotus Island, they immediately used a formation to notify their clansmen in the Immortal Realm. Wang Yongqian immediately sent people to the lower realm, who landed directly on Azure Lotus Island, retrieved the Karma Orb, and brought it back to the Immortal Realm, handing it to Wang Changsheng.

Qian Qingzi was rewarded for presenting the treasure. The Wang family recruited him as a guest elder, providing him with cultivation resources to help him recover his cultivation.

The clansmen in the lower realm strengthened their defenses, and their in-law allies also heightened their vigilance, strictly guarding against attacks from forces affiliated with the Myriad Beasts Palace.

“Generously reward the clansmen who participated in finding Qian Qingzi and the Karma Orb, especially the five, Xiaolong and his group,” Wang Changsheng instructed. “Once they ascend to the Immortal Realm, they should be given priority in training.”

“Yes, Old Ancestor,” Wang Yongqian agreed.

“Send people to keep a close watch on the Myriad Beasts Palace,” Wang Changsheng cautioned. “Instruct the clansmen in the lower realm to strengthen their defenses. Last time, when they were searching for the Grand Unity Creation Pot, the Myriad Beasts Palace was intercepted by the Nangong Immortal Clan. Now they’ve been intercepted by our family again, so they definitely won’t be content and might retaliate against us.”

“Understood, Old Ancestor,” Wang Yongqian agreed and left to carry out the order.

“The Karma Orb!” Wang Changsheng gazed at the Karma Orb, his eyes burning with excitement.

In the Immortal Realm, there are six supreme laws: the Soul as the root, Reincarnation as the foundation, Time as supreme, Space as sovereign, Fate unrevealed, and Karma as king.

All things have karma. This Karma Orb, refined into a Grandmist Spirit Treasure, possesses considerable power.

Murong Bing’s karmic ties to the lower realm were severed by a top-grade immortal artifact imbued with the power of karma, causing her to forget her past companions and old friends from the lower realm, such as Demonic Lord Xuanfu.

Besides the Karma Orb, there is also a high-level cultivation method, the “Karma Immortal Scripture.” Perhaps a clansman will be able to comprehend the Law of Karma with the aid of this cultivation method.

Wang Changsheng put away the Karma Orb and returned to his secret chamber to continue refining artifacts.
