Chapter 495: Chapter 399 Compensation (Please Subscribe)

Piaomiao Immortal Palace.

Floating Island.

A streak of sword light sped forth, stopping outside the Heavenly Immortal Palace, revealing a youth with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes—it was Fang Xing!

A flicker of divine light passed through his eyes as he surveyed his surroundings, and he couldn’t help but nod, "Worthy of a Sixth Order Heavenly Vein, this spiritual energy is indeed more abundant than that of the sea veins... Moreover, this Sixth Order Array possessing void attributes is quite impressive."

With just one glance, he knew that challenging the entire sect by himself would be difficult.

It would be more feasible if his true self made a move.

"However... I must at least try."

The Rotten Iron Sword appeared in his hand, and Fang Xing slashed down!

Whoosh!

With this sword strike, heaven and earth seemed to enter night, the sky turning into a chessboard of stars, with a dazzling Milky Way wanting to pierce through the entire Piaomiao Immortal Palace!

The Sword Qi was piercingly cold, and immortal cranes shrieked, scaring numerous cultivators out of their wits.

Finally!

From atop the Jade Palace, rows of silver-white runes emerged, forming a mighty prohibition with columns of silver-white light, creating a vast array.

This grand array was elusive and hazy, yet it felt as if it could split two realms.

"Void phantasms like bubble shadows, two realms as vast as dust... Truly a magnificent Sixth Order Void Array."

Fang Xing laughed heartily, having spotted the ultimate treasure at the infinite center of the void—the Two Realms Banner!

If only considering the void attribute, this Two Realms Banner even surpassed the Wuji Demon Palace.

As for the Five Dragon Pillars? They simply didn’t compare.

"Ming Kun Venerable?!"

Amidst a clear and melodious cry, a Green Bird flew out of the Palace of the Polestar.

Mounted on the Green Bird, stood a resplendently dressed beautiful woman, the master of Piaomiao Palace—Qiong Immortal.

Qiong Immortal, looking at Fang Xing, flashed an uncertain expression, seemingly guessing his intentions.

"Why has the elder come here?"

A smile appeared on her face as she greeted him in her junior’s capacity, boldly inquiring.

"Hmph, your Piaomiao Immortal Palace doesn’t follow the rules, letting outsiders attack me."

Fang Xing snorted, throwing forth the ’Five Dragon Pillars,’ "That old beggar has been slain by me... Shouldn’t the Piaomiao Immortal Palace also give an explanation?"

Swoosh, swoosh!

As soon as he mentioned the Five Dragon Pillars, two streams of light immediately flew out from the depths of Piaomiao Immortal Palace, revealing themselves to be Venerable Gu and Venerable Jin.

Seeing the Five Dragon Pillars, they both inhaled sharply.

Although they indeed conspired in secret for Divine Beggar Venerable to deal with Death God Island and then observe the latter’s misfortune,

they had not expected that in such a short time, Divine Beggar Venerable would have fallen?

Moreover, it was not even the Body Cultivation Venerable who made the move?

Under their divine sense scanning, no matter how they looked at it, Ming Kun Venerable was still only at the early stage of God Transformation.

Venerable Gu began to sweat, sensing that the Two Realms Banner of their sect was still present, somewhat reassuring him.

With the Two Realms Banner anchoring the Sixth Order grand array and a God Transformation Venerable presiding over it,

even a God Transformation Venerable would absolutely not break through the Piaomiao Immortal Palace.

Even a Void Refining Great Power would need to attack for a long time!

"Elder... that old beggar was overbearing, and our Piaomiao Immortal Palace suffered a lot from his bullying. We thank the elder for taking revenge for our Piaomiao Immortal Palace."

Qiong Immortal’s expression shifted from dignified to one filled with indignation.

Such is the way of cultivators, with very flexible stances.

And indeed... Piaomiao Immortal Palace truly did not participate; at most, they were guilty of withholding information.

"To placate my anger, two things need to be done."

Fang Xing spoke calmly.

"Please speak plainly, fellow Daoist."

Venerable Gu and Venerable Jin looked at each other, both letting out a sigh of relief.

Facing an existence capable of slaying a God Transformation Venerable, they were under great pressure.

Perhaps... Venerable Fang Yun was lurking nearby?

If they completely offended Death God Island, unless they kept themselves hidden forever, they would barely have any peace.

"The first thing, those ancient transmission arrays—I want all of them, just right to transport to the Great Yang Immortal Cultivation World."

Fang Xing sneered, his words carrying a storm of blood and violence, causing Qiong Immortal to feel somewhat suffocated.

"That is easy."

Venerable Gu immediately agreed, "These ancient transmission arrays originated from Ancient Great Divine Power cultivators and belong to the wealth of the entire Cultivation World. If the fellow Daoist wishes to use them... it just requires the Void Power to protect the body, which you are certainly capable of satisfying."

"The second thing, present these as an apology, and this matter will be considered settled."

Fang Xing tossed over a Jade Scroll, which listed a large number of Fifth Order materials, mainly intended for crafting the Ten Thousand Transformation Cauldron and enhancing mana pill recipes.

Qiong Immortal took it, glanced over it, and almost fainted.

"Impossible... So much, are you planning to rob all the stores of Piaomiao Immortal Palace?"

Venerable Jin, with a sweep of his divine sense, flew into a rage.

For cultivators, progression in mana is their lifeline.

The Fifth Order Elixirs that Fang Xing demanded were crucial for their future enhancement of mana!

"If you don’t agree, I, along with the elders, will blockade Piaomiao Immortal Palace... The spiritual energy of the Sixth Order Heavenly Vein is good, but if cut off, how many years can it support?"

Fang Xing spoke indifferently.

Back then, even Meng Old Demon had the confidence to wage a long-term war, aiming for a prolonged siege, destroying the Sixth Order Heavenly Vein, rendering the Piaomiao Immortal Palace’s grand array useless, then slowly wearing them down.

Just like that, a war of attrition could last hundreds of years.

Fang Xing definitely wouldn’t have the patience for that.

But the cultivators of Piaomiao Immortal Palace didn’t know that!

In their view, if a mere few hundred years of war could secure the Hanhai Immortal Cultivation World for good, it would be worth it.

The Ancient Venerable immediately communicated a few words telepathically with Venerable Jin, and began to relent, "If fellow Daoist swears a Primordial Spirit oath, my junior and I... are willing to settle it thus."

"Humph."

Fang Xing snorted coldly, pondered for a moment, but then agreed.

...

A few days later.

In a warm, fragrant, and luxurious palace of the Piaomiao Immortal Palace,

"These cultivators of the Piaomiao Immortal Palace really know how to enjoy life."

Fang Xing stepped out of the fragrant bath, and a pair of tender hands gently helped him into his robe and tied his belt.

"Hehe... what capabilities do I possess to deserve the Palace Master’s services?"

He glanced at the gentle, dignified, and slightly shy face of the woman attending to him and spoke.

"Our honored guest deserves personal attention as a sign of respect," replied the Piaomiao Palace Master, Qiong Immortal softly,

"Mmm..."

Fang Xing touched his face, thinking that indeed being handsome had its perks.

He had conducted a Soul Search on the Divine Beggar Venerable and naturally knew how this Piaomiao Palace Master had unabashedly behaved towards another Divinity Transformation Venerable.

’Well... perhaps it’s because I’m stronger than the God Transformation Venerables?’

’Or perhaps... Piaomiao Immortal Palace being the local snake, has dug up some information? Although I didn’t plan to hide anything...’

Ming Kun Venerable came out of nowhere, along with such a formidable senior.

As a local Divinity Transformation power, they would definitely do some investigation.

Although the Great Wilderness Cultivation World is difficult to reach, it’s not completely inaccessible, otherwise, the pioneers would’ve perished on the way.

And Fang Xing had never hidden anything, his real name for example.

Further investigation might reveal his age and combining it with his current cultivation.

What’s this?

This is a "Banished Immortal Reincarnation"!

Sacrificing a Nascent Soul, Perfect palace master, is nothing at all.

Moreover, the Piaomiao Immortal Palace might even become suspicious, questioning if they are hosting a reincarnated great power linked to treasures of the Immortal Mansion...

Truthfully, these were all coincidences, yet no one would believe it if told.

After enjoying myriad favors, Fang Xing left the palace and saw a Green Bird preening itself in the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

He went up to stroke it, finding the touch quite pleasing.

Not long after, the Piaomiao Palace Master changed into formal attire and gracefully approached, handing over a storage bag.

Fang Xing received it and swept it with his Divine Sense, nodding in satisfaction.

Though they had developed a friendly connection, the promised compensation couldn’t be less.

"Very well, where is the Ancient Transmission Array leading to the Great Yang Immortal Cultivation World? I must go and collect some debts," Fang Xing declared with a smile.

"Are you just going to go like that? Aren’t you afraid we might destroy the transmission array and trap you there forever?" asked the Piaomiao Palace Master, batting her eyes.

"I’m not worried; my senior is still here."

Fang Xing was rather cavalier, confident that Piaomiao Immortal Palace wouldn’t dare to do such a thing.

The Fiery Sun Palace was already a tomb of bones; to offend two great powers for this Holy Land would be foolish of the Ancient Venerable and Venerable Jin.

Even if they planned to exile him, Fang Yun Venerable was still here, hence their schemes would be futile.

The Piaomiao Palace Master said nothing, her eyes filled with reluctance and a hint of humor, "To express sincerity, how about I accompany fellow Daoist on the journey?"

"You?"

Fang Xing assessed the Piaomiao Palace Master, "Qiong Immortal, you are truly talented. You’ve mastered a thread of Void Power in your Nascent Soul’s perfection?"

Blushing, the Piaomiao Palace Master replied, "Although I specialize in the Void Dao, one must undergo Divinity Transformation to perceive the void... however, the Ancient Transmission Arrays were not so inconvenient in ancient times. By crafting transportation runes or orders imbued with Void Protection, even low-rank cultivators can travel without fearing the pressure of the void, besides... don’t you have the ’Wuji Demon Palace’ in your hand?"

"Mm, that makes sense," nodded Fang Xing, casually agreeing, "It’s indeed rather dull to travel alone; having a beautiful companion to alleviate the loneliness wouldn’t be bad..."

Hearing this, Qiong Immortal’s eyes brimmed with laughter.

...

Great Yang Immortal Cultivation World.

In a misty, desolate mountain.

Deep within the mountain belly, an Ancient Transmission Array suddenly flickered with silver light.

Two figures appeared, precisely Fang Xing and Piaomiao Palace Master Qiong Immortal.

"This place?"

Fang Xing extended his Divine Sense, only to see a desolate, foreboding terrain devoid of Spiritual Energy, with surrounding mists forming a natural grand array.

Whether this was intentionally done by ancient cultivators or simply a natural wonder remained uncertain.

"Ancient transmission arrays don’t necessarily need to be situated atop a Spirit Vein... The several ancient arrays inside the palace were moved here from various parts of the Hanhai Immortal Cultivation World by a Void Refining Ancestor using great divine abilities as part of our foundation..." explained Qiong Immortal.

"Void Refining foundation is indeed impressive," nodded Fang Xing, "The Great Yang Immortal Cultivation World, being as resource-rich as the Hanhai Immortal Cultivation World, with Fiery Sun Palace dominating... I’m quite looking forward to it..."
