Chapter 414: 268: The Fury of the Heisha Palace_1
Watching his daughter, Master Peach Blossom, leaving, Daoist Unlimited felt increasingly sorrowful. It seemed to him that his beloved daughter was getting further away from him, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Whoosh!
At that moment, a man in black appeared in front of Daoist Unlimited, his aura seemingly merged with the emptiness around him as if it had completely vanished.
It was Daoist Liufeng, who was at the core of Daoist Unlimited’s most trusted subordinates and the head of the most significant intelligence organization in the Wuji Alliance.
He had reached the stage of Nascent Soul’s mid-term development.
“What do you think of that lad you’ve investigated? Is he reliable?”
Daoist Unlimited asked.
Ever since he became aware of Zhou Sui’s presence, he immediately sent Daoist Liufeng to investigate everything about Zhou Sui.
After all, this is the very man his daughter fancied; how could he not thoroughly investigate?
“To be honest, this Zhou Sui is very mysterious.”
“Despite being accompanied by several companions, he is not frivolous.”
“He usually stays on Immortal Mist Peak, devoting himself to cultivation and rarely descends the mountain.”
“It is rumored that he comes from a Loose Cultivator background but managed to establish his foundation by courting the Sect Master of Immortal Mist Sect, Leng Yuexi.”
“Moreover, this man is extremely charming. Several female cultivators at the Golden Core stage willingly offer themselves to him.”
“Even the recently promoted Nascent Soul female cultivator, Lin Yazhu, is also his companion.”
“In other words, he is the real controller of Immortal Mist City.”
Daoist Liufeng announced in a deep voice and shared all kinds of information he had gathered.
Frankly speaking, he was intrigued by Zhou Sui. This man seemed mysterious, as if he held big secrets.
“This is just common knowledge.”
“Can anyone inquire about such things? Haven’t you tried to get closer to that lad and find more secretive news?”
Daoist Unlimited was disgruntled.
“I also wanted to approach Immortal Mist Peak.”
“But when I got close, I had an ominous feeling.”
“It seemed like if I entered, it would be the end, so I decided to give up.”
Daoist Liufeng helpless explained.
He too wanted to probe deeper into Immortal Mist Peak.
But he realized he had underestimated this place. His Divination skill, which he had been cultivating, could predict fortune and danger.
This skill alerts him whenever he faces a life-and-death situation.
With this skill, he had managed to escape countless crises.
But as he approached Immortal Mist Peak, it gave him a chilling feeling, as if a disaster was imminent.
So, he decisively escaped and dared not to get close again.
“What do you mean?”
“Are you saying that even you cannot handle Immortal Mist Peak?”
Daoist Unlimited was taken aback and found it hard to believe. He knew Daoist Liufeng’s abilities very well. If he wanted to escape, even Daoist Unlimited himself wouldn’t be able to stop him.
However, now this fellow was afraid of approaching Immortal Mist Peak. It was truly beyond comprehension.
“That’s right, at first, I was puzzled as to why I was having such a feeling.”
“But when I learned about the deaths of the old Fliying Ancestor and Fire Cloud Ancestor, I finally understood.”
“That sea area was set up with a top-class Fourth stage formation, with immense power.”
“If I set off Immortal Mist Peak’s cultivators, I will be completely stuck there.”
“Even if I’m proficient in the Escape Technique, it would be of no use.”
Daoist Liufeng shared his speculation.
“A top-class Fourth stage formation? Does the Immortal Mist Sect have such profound resources?”
“Or have they stumbled upon an ancient relic and mastered that Fourth stage formation?”
Daoist Unlimited could hardly believe it.
Because a top-class Fourth stage formation was the most potent formation in the current Canglan Sea area. Even the formations protecting the headquarters of the five major Nascent Soul forces were also only top-class Fourth stage.
With this top-class Fourth stage formation, it was enough to resist a large army and ensure that the inheritance could continue for tens of thousands of years with no worries.
One could imagine how extraordinary this formation was.
Even him wouldn’t dare to break into it.
Just a moment of carelessness could mean death.
“It’s unclear, but what I can confirm is that they’ve taken complete control of the fourth stage formation.”
“And the Array Master controlling the fourth stage formation is none other than Zhou Sui.”
“His Formation Cultivation Level is impressive, perhaps already reaching the level of a fourth stage Array Master.”
“The previous deaths of Fei Lian Ancestor and Fire Cloud Ancestor may have been down to this man’s support.”
Daoist Liufeng spoke in a solemn voice.
“So it seems, this fellow is indeed not as simple as we imagined.”
“No wonder he’s won the favor of so many female cultivators, even having them actively pursuing him.”
Daoist Unlimited raised his eyebrows slightly, his recognition of Zhou Sui slightly increased.
Such is the reality of the Cultivation World.
Those with strength will always earn respect.
If one possesses the cultivation level of a fourth stage Array Master, one’s status and power would be on par with that of a Nascent Soul Ancestor.”
“Alliance Hierarch, I think it is best if you stay out of this matter.”
“Your daughter is now over five hundred years old. Who she has taken a liking to is up to her to determine.”
Daoist Liufeng said helplessly.
“Shut up! No matter if she’s over five hundred years old or one thousand years old, she’s still my daughter.”
“But let’s put it aside for now, let’s deal with those Sea Clan cultivators first.”
“After dealing with the Sea Clan Nascent Soul cultivators, then we can have a talk with that young man.”
Daoist Unlimited spoke through gritted teeth.
……
At this moment, in the Heisha Palace.
Many Nascent Soul Ancestors gathered together, their faces solemn.
“Damn it, the two useless Fei Lian Ancestor and Fire Cloud Ancestor were actually slaughtered by a newly advanced female Nascent Soul from the Wuji Alliance. They’d bragged about their military prowess in front of me.”
The Palace Master of Heisha Palace cursed loudly, clearly angry.
Up until now, four Nascent Souls from the Heisha Palace had died.
Even for a Nascent Soul Sect like theirs, this was a heavy loss that would create a huge power vacuum.
It would take a considerable amount of time to recover.
“Palace Master, what should we do now? Should we take revenge on the Wuji Alliance?”
A Nascent Soul Ancestor asked.
“Revenge? Is it the time to take revenge on the Wuji Alliance?”
“The ruins of the ancient Ku Rong Sect have appeared. It’s a great opportunity for us.”
“In such ancient ruins, there are bound to be countless treasures.”
“There might even be Spiritual Medicines that can aid us in advancing to the Divinity Transformation.”
“Engaging the Wuji Alliance in battle now will only benefit other sects.”
“Even if we were successful in taking revenge on the Wuji Alliance, we wouldn’t gain much additional benefit. It will merely be an act of venting.”
“There is absolutely no sense in that.”
Heisha Palace’s Palace Master was brutally candid. He was never the type to let his anger cloud his judgment. He knew very well the difference between what is important and what isn’t.
Even though they had lost four Nascent Soul elders, he was ready to let go for the sake of a greater good.
Nothing was of greater importance than the ruins of the Ku Rong Sect at this point.
“You’re right! If our Heisha Palace can obtain a Divinity Transformation Spiritual Medicine in the ruins, and our Heisha Palace gives birth to one Divinity Transformation cultivator, we could immediately sweep across the entire Canglan Sea.”
“By then, not to mention annihilating the Wuji Alliance, even unifying the whole Canglan Sea wouldn’t pose much of a problem.”
“Our main goal now is still those ruins.”
The many elders of the Nascent Soul stage from Heisha Palace began to chit-chat.
All had an excited expression on their faces. For them also, this was an unprecedented opportunity.
So no matter what, they would absolutely not miss it.
As cultivators of the demonic path, who were naturally cold-blooded, they felt nothing for the death of Fire Cloud Ancestor and the others.
If they truly wanted to take revenge on the Wuji Alliance, it’s merely an excuse for starting a war.
Right now, the gains wouldn’t make up for the loss so they don’t want to seek revenge any longer.
