Chapter 642 - 331 Secret Talks, Treasure Land
The three years inside the Time Tower, Yang Ji had successfully broken through to the Great Luo Immortal Sage, also known as the Daluo Golden Immortal.
With the resources given by Jia Yi, the master of Celestial Court, the Wings of Time-Space were promoted to the level of a Quasi-Imperial King Weapon, and the Time Tower reached the status of a Superior Immortal Artifact.
Now, the flow of time within the outer Time Tower had once again changed; a year on the outside equated to a hundred years within the tower.
Indeed, while years passed slowly in the outside world, a hundred years had gone by within the tower.
Yang Ji knew that with time, becoming a Quasi-Immortal King, or even an Immortal King, would no longer be an issue for him.
But now, the situation had undergone some changes.
Yang Ji had originally thought that the Immortal Realm was filled with rich Immortal Qi everywhere, suitable for cultivation, but once he stepped outside Gengzhou, he realized that not all domains were like the Celestial Court filled with heavenly locations everywhere.
There were hardly a few strands of Immortal Qi in the air, while Gale winds could be seen everywhere.
This was surely because he had just broken through to the Great Luo Immortal Sage, which affected the Dao essence and rules here, causing the originally unstable space to become extremely violent.
In just an instant, a death storm that swept across heaven and earth formed and coiled towards him.
Yang Ji frowned and stretched out a single hand; a massive Destruction Hand Seal struck out, and the death storm that even Daluo Golden Immortals wouldn't dare to lightly touch was instantly shattered.
This move greatly surprised the three hidden observers within the dimensional space.
"This? This!"
"This person is amazing, he just broke through to the Great Luo Immortal Sage, and with one palm, he destroyed such a storm. Too strong."
"The three observers have watched for quite some time, shouldn't it be time to show yourselves?" Yang Ji suddenly lifted his gaze and looked towards the Sky Firmament.
"Fellow Daoist, I am Cheng Pin from the Xianluan Sect, and these two are my junior brothers, Liu Hua and Fang Ye," above, space fluctuated, and three elders dressed in splendid robes appeared.
"Fellow Daoist, we did not intend to spy. This place is under the jurisdiction of our Xianluan Sect, and an extraordinary phenomenon suddenly occurred, so we came to investigate," Cheng Pin said very politely.
"So it turns out to be the esteemed domain of your Sect. I have been remiss not to greet the three Daoist fellows upon arrival," seeing that the newcomers were polite, Yang Ji also clasped his hands together in a greeting.
"Fellow Daoist, this place is desolate. How about you come with us to our Sect to talk?" Cheng Pin offered with a smile.
"No, thank you. I still have matters to attend to and will leave this place shortly," Yang Ji declined. He was only interested in enhancing his strength now.
After exchanging courtesies, he stopped paying attention to them and burrowed into the ground, intending to consolidate his cultivation before leaving the place.
"Junior brothers, what do you think of this person?" Cheng Pin looked towards the place where Yang Ji had disappeared, speaking to Liu Hua and Fang Ye through a voice transmission.
"He is unfathomable! When he broke through, clouds covered the sky, and a royal canopy crown appeared above his head, with myriad golden lights and pervasive Dao essence. I have seen a genius who had slain ten Dao Calamities during his breakthrough, and even he did not have such extraordinary phenomena as this person. I speculate that he must be a demon-level figure who has slain more than ten Dao Calamities, with the potential of an Immortal King," Liu Hua said in a deep voice.
"Such a figure, our Xianluan Sect must not provoke. It is best that he intends to leave," Fang Ye stated gravely.
"Indeed, this person is extraordinary. With such a character, I'm afraid even the three of us combined would not be a match for a single move of his. If I'm not mistaken, that technique he just used is a top Immortal Technique," Cheng Pin sighed, "If this person is willing to join our Xianluan Sect, then our sect's position in Zetian Immortal Domain will be completely secured. At the very least, if we could use this person's grand fate to open that treasure site..."
"Oh? What treasure site? Tell me more!" Yang Ji tore through space with the Quasi-Immortal King Weapon Wings of Time-Space and appeared in front of the three men in a flash, startling them.
This was only the beginning of their astonishment; even more shocking was that their conversation had been conducted through secret voice transmission. How could he know the content?
The three of them looked at Yang Ji as if they had seen a ghost.
"Gentlemen, I mean no harm; I'm just interested in the treasure site you mentioned. If the three of you wish to utilize my strength, we could discuss it," Yang Ji said with a slight smile. He was currently penniless, and if there was a treasure site, it would be great to find some Cultivation Immortal Pills or Immortal Stone Veins there.
The three exchanged glances and, after a moment of silent communication, turned to Yang Ji and said, "Friend, if that is the case, please follow us to discuss this inside our sect."
"Okay!" Yang Ji nodded and followed them back to the sect.
After some fruit and Immortal Tea were served, and after tasting a few sips, Yang Ji opened the conversation, "My name is Luo Xiong, and I would like to know where this treasure site you mentioned is and what dangers it harbors?"

"It turns out to be Friend Luo Xiong! That treasure site is within our Zetian Immortal Domain, in Immortal Meteor Valley. The valley is dismal and dark inside, hiding many strong wills. Many sects from our Zetian Immortal Domain have gone to explore it, and many have perished inside. Even the sect master of Cangsheng Sect, who is at the peak of the Great Luo Immortal Sage, returned with serious injuries. However, he did not come back empty-handed; he brought back a damaged Immortal King Artifact and stated there was a dazzling treasure inside," Cheng Pin said.
"A damaged Immortal King Artifact? Could it be an unknown Immortal King battlefield inside?" Yang Ji pondered aloud.
"We do not know. The Immortal Realm is vast, and since its origin, no one knows how many Immortal Kings have been born. If it truly is an Immortal King battlefield, it is possible," Cheng Pin said.
"Has no Quasi-Imperial Monarch or Immortal King ever gone in to explore that treasure site?" Yang Ji asked.
"No, that treasure site was accidentally opened not long ago due to the movement of the Immortal Realm's crust. All three major immortal sects of our Zetian Immortal Domain have kept this information secret, not disclosing it to outsiders, and have even placed restrictions around Immortal Meteor Valley," Cheng Pin explained, smiling bitterly, "We did not intend to tell you either, but you have such broad Divine Skills that you could hear our secret voice transmission."
"For the three major sects to keep such secrecy, it seems they want to claim this treasure site for themselves. It's normal not to share it with outsiders," Yang Ji nodded.
"I guess they can't swallow it!" Cheng Pin shook his head, "Without the strength of a Quasi-Immortal King, one simply cannot enter. We've tried once before, but we were scared off by a remnant killing intent inside. That intent was definitely left by a Quasi-Immortal King and is incredibly formidable."
"The most likely person to break in from our Zetian Immortal Domain would be the sect master of Cangsheng Sect. He now has obtained a damaged Immortal King Artifact, and if he were to go to the nearby Huangzhou and sell it, exchanging it for a part of a Supreme Immortal Stone Vein, there would be a sufficient supply of pure Immortal Qi to help him break through to Quasi-Immortal King," Liu Hua said.
"It's not that easy!" Cheng Pin shook his head, "To ascend to Quasi-Immortal King, one not only needs to refine and absorb a massive amount of pure Immortal Qi but also must comprehend the Dao Principles of a Quasi-Immortal King. Even if he obtains enough Immortal Stone Veins for his breakthrough, if his comprehension of the Dao Principles does not progress further, it's still just wishful thinking."
"I actually want to try and enter!" Yang Ji looked at the three men and said.
"Do you really want to try?" Cheng Pin looked at Yang Ji.
"If I really can break in and find treasures, we can split it eighty-twenty. You won't miss out on your share!" Yang Ji said with a smile.
Cheng Pin, Liu Hua, and Fang Ye exchanged glances and nodded, "Alright, let's try it! We just hope that Friend does not go back on his word!"
"Of course not; I may look a bit sly, but I'm known for keeping my word!" Yang Ji grinned and then made the most vicious oath.
"..." Cheng Pin, Liu Hua, and Fang Ye looked at each other, a strange expression on their faces. Who ever says they look sly?
Yang Ji, however, didn't care; his current appearance wasn't really his.
What do you think?
