Chapter 897 - Two Realms Are Watching in Secret! Taking the Ultimate Treasure by Force!
– Meanwhile, in the Innumerable-Immortal Sea –
In the vast ocean in Innumerable-Immortal Sea, huge waves surged up on the peaceful surface with howling gusts.
Dark clouds covered the sky as hidden currents surged in the depths of the ocean.
Countless tiny cracks were vaguely visible as thunderbolts from the void left horrifying cracks in the great ocean.
A huge vortex suddenly appeared in the ocean.
The vortex grew larger, surging up higher and higher waves.
The great disturbance alerted Green Sky Immortal, the Heavenly Supervisor of the Innumerable-Immortal Sea.
Sitting opposite to her was a weird-looking Daoist who was dressed in a black-and-white Daoist robe and had two braids dangling from the two sides of his face.
A small stove sat between them with immortal tea simmering in the high-quality Star Sand Pot.
Suddenly, the blue-robed woman’s eyes turned as cold as ice in the prehistoric times.
She looked into the distance.
…
At this moment, the vast ocean calmed down as if the great disturbance had never happened.
But…
Splash!
Hualala-!
With the splashing sounds of water, several heads poked out from the bright blue clear ocean.
A blind man who had his eyes covered said in astonishment, “Is this… the world of the grandmasters?!”
…
They had never seen a world so vast and with such abundant spiritual energy.
“Don’t stall! Old Ghost Zong! Let’s hurry up and get to the shore!” Some of them wore clothes of the East Continent while some were dressed in the style of the Continent of Immortal Relics.
Without exception, they were all draped in weird-looking protection spiritual treasures which looked like bamboo coats with a few snow-white feathers.
The feathers emitted holy presence which seemed to come from an ancient god.
It was these feathers that helped them remain intact as they traveled through the void where endless thunderbolts struck at everything within.
“Let’s go! Find a place to absorb some spiritual energy!”
“This is immortal spiritual energy!”
At this moment, Valkyrie Isabela lay in the pool and mused. When I recover thousands of years later, the first thing that I’ll do is take back my wings! I can’t leave them in the mortal world!
“But now… I loan you mortals borrow them for thousands of years…” After all, she couldn’t move right now!
…
At this moment, a secret report was sent from the Lower Region to the Gui Family in the Innumerable-Immortal Sea. No one knew about it.
In the secret palace, there was a bright mirror hovering in the air.
A vague shadow appeared in the mirror, but the vague outer shape of the figure seemed to reveal an extremely solemn-looking ultimate existence!
The figure was silent as if he was waiting for the people’s reply.
The many immortals in the palace including Wondrous Spell High Holiness all knelt before the mirror.
No one could imagine such a scene. No one could imagine what kind of existence would have the power to place these lofty and extraordinary immortals into submission.
“How does it go?”
Silence.
After a long while, the voice sounded.
“Martial Arts Ban, monitoring the mortal world, and sealing the path to Heaven… After so many years, you have received no information at all?” A streak of chilly light shot out from the mirror as the voice said coldly.
“Don’t worry,” Wondrous Spell High Holiness answered with great respect, “We’re not so useless like the Gods’ Palace that got their home base in the mortal world destroyed!”
With an extremely reverent expression on his face, he didn’t even dare to lift his head. Even with his lofty position, he didn’t dare to show a tiny trace of disrespect.
Then, he looked at the 30-year-old-looking young man beside him. “Li Feng, were they exposed?”
The young man immediately replied, “The Lower Region has many people. I picked several ordinary-looking subordinates, and I’m sure that they won’t cause suspicion.”
“According to my investigation, the shop might be related to the item that you’re looking for,” the young man said cautiously with his head almost lowered to the ground.
“Might be!?” The voice in the mirror suddenly turned cold.
Everyone felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar!
“No… it must be!” the young man added in a hurry, “I went there and investigated for a long time in secret. I’m sure that the figures behind them are not demonic gods from the Plane of Nine-Fold Darkness!”
Quickly, he organized the words in his mind before saying, “I searched those people’s souls. They all think that there are one or more masters or even gods guarding the shop. But according to my analysis, it’s not the case!”
“I even suspect that there’s no one guarding the shop. It’s just a trick that the young man named Fang Qi used to fool others!” he said, “It’s said that he rarely came out the shop from the very beginning. Also, no one has seen the ‘senior’ who is supposed to guard the shop showing his power in any situation outside the shop.”
“Besides, he always shows his power at the last moment. If he indeed has a tremendous force at his back, for example the Plane of Nine-Fold Darkness, they could have killed all troublemakers directly. Why did he go to such trouble then?!” the young man analyzed, “The only explanation is that he isn’t as powerful as he looks. He is borrowing those powers and thus can’t make them last, which is why he always waits until the last moment to make a move. Otherwise, people would have seen through his tricks!”
“State your conclusion.” The voice in the mirror seemed to soften a bit but was still a little impatient.
“Yes!” the young man said, “According to my analysis, this human has an extremely powerful supreme treasure! Even if it’s not the item that you need, the two are closely related.”
“As for the inconsistency of timing, I think… the ultimate treasure… has its own spirit and came out earlier!” he concluded, “Besides, I think that its amazing powers will even intrigue you! I’m sure even if it’s not the item that you are looking for, it’s not inferior to any ultimate holy items in legends!”
The moment he said the words, he was sent flying without a warning, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
“A mere minor immortal doesn’t deserve to use the words ‘ultimate holy’.”
The light on the mirror dimmed as a faint voice sounded, “If so, you go and take the so-called ‘ultimate holy’ item by force, so it won’t be wasted in the mortal world.”
…
-At this moment, in the depths of the Nine-Fold Darkness-
-In the dark abyss at the depths of the darkness-
There were countless prehistoric corpses.
The figures wore ancient immortal robes or… eroded heavy armor.
They knelt with heads lowered like the last members of ancient families.
In the depths of the direction that they were kneeling at, the most ancient king of this dark world hid there. It seemed like a pair of eyes slowly opened at the bottom of the abyss.
The powerful light could no longer be covered. How could an ultimate holy item fall in such a place?
The two realms shook!
Greedy gazes turned toward the mortal world which was stuck in the middle of the two realms and shivering at the moment!
