Chapter 864: Chapter 72: Immortal’s Guidance, Returning All Techniques
Agreeing to Xiao Jie’s invitation, Chen Tianwen suddenly became serious.
"Although your plan is good, you should know that defeating Wang Xie is not an easy task. Are you sure we can achieve it with just our group? While I am confident in my own mana, I am not so arrogant as to challenge the World Boss."
Xiao Jie, however, laughed and said, "Of course, I understand. Rest assured, I am not so arrogant as to think we can challenge the World Boss with just our strength. To counter the World Boss, we must rely on the power of NPCs; that much is clear to me."
Xiao Jie was very aware of Wang Xie’s terror, perhaps more than anyone present since he had faced the World Boss himself. Therefore, his plan was well thought out.
"Let’s prepare for tomorrow’s battle, which will determine the entire game’s future storyline and our Success on the Immortal Path. Everyone should give their all without holding anything back."
He sent this message to a small group and then bid farewell to everyone, preparing to leave alone.
"Feng, where are you going?" I Want to Be Immortal asked, seeing Xiao Jie leaving.
Xiao Jie replied calmly, "To pray!"
At this moment, all players in the game were gearing up for war. Potions and talismans in the auction house were almost sold out, with all battlefield survival items having skyrocketed in price, making a considerable profit for those players pursuing a lifestyle profession path.
As the great battle approached, some people were enhancing their equipment, buying elixirs and talismans, or practicing skills and techniques.
Others, however, chose to pray to gods and Buddha...
Half an hour later, Xiao Jie landed outside a ruined temple in the wilderness of Longhua State.
Since obtaining the black ebony incense, he had been gathering information on the various gods, Buddhas, and immortals in the game.
In the Jiuzhou World, beliefs were diverse, and the effects of praying to different deities varied greatly, so Xiao Jie wanted to be fully aware.
Thanks to Long Soaring’s intelligence network, he obtained detailed relevant information.
Especially concerning temples across Jiuzhou World, Xiao Jie was extremely familiar.
The temple before him was the Three Immortals Temple, dedicated to three nameless immortals, whose identity was now untraceable. Due to the decline of the human path, nearby villages had turned into monster lairs, making this temple a deserted ruin, noticed only by occasional resting players.
It was from these players’ game images that Xiao Jie deduced the identities of these three immortals.
Among them was the person he was looking for.
At this moment, Xiao Jie slowly walked into the ruined temple.
The statues of the three immortals were long broken, barely revealing their original forms: the one on the left wearing a tightly fitting Daoist robe and carrying a long sword, exuding a heroic aura.
The one on the right carried a large gourd with wide sleeves, looking very free and uninhibited.
The one in the middle was dressed in a soap robe, adorned with celestial stars and Taiji Bagua diagrams.
Xiao Jie’s impression of this attire was quite vivid.
This was exactly who he was looking for.
Before the statues lay a verdigris-green broken incense burner.
Xiao Jie gently lit the black ebony incense, inserted it into the burner, and bowed three times to the middle immortal.
The incense turned into a wisp of blue smoke, coiling above the burner like a spirit cloud, lingering without dispersing. freeweɓnøvel~com
System prompt: Your prayer has elicited a response from the statue, please choose your prayer target.
Option 1: The disciple humbly invites the Demon-sweeping Immortal Lin Xuance.
Option 2: The disciple humbly invites the Miao Suan Immortal Shen Jizi.
Option 3: The disciple humbly invites the Carefree Immortal Li Qianbei.
Xiao Jie decisively chose the second option.
The smoke hovering above the incense burner immediately entered the middle statue, and the statue suddenly opened its eyes and came to life.
Yet it wasn’t truly alive, but a celestial shadow appeared on the statue.
Xiao Jie recognized it instantly; indeed, it was Shen Jizi.
Shen Jizi still remembered Xiao Jie, "Oh, it’s you again? What brings you to me?"
"Greetings, Immortal. The great disaster is upon us; Long Wushang colludes with demons to sweep the world, putting the Nine Provinces Human Clan in grave danger. The disciple seeks your assistance."
"Hmph, how rude you are! We immortals have long severed mundane ties, not concerning ourselves with worldly affairs. Yet here you are, bothering me with such a mundane matter. If not for old times’ sake, I would frankly ignore you."
Xiao Jie thought it wasn’t that simple indeed, seeking help from an immortal was obviously impossible.
Fortunately, he did not truly intend that.
It was merely a small ploy of retreating to advance.
"I see, if the Immortal is unwilling to intervene, might you help me with two fortune-tellings concerning the fate of the world? I hope the Immortal will not refuse."
Hearing it was merely fortune-telling, Shen Jizi’s expression softened slightly.
"Speak, if feasible, I will calculate for you."
Xiao Jie thought, then it’s secured, "Please listen, Immortal, I wish to divine these two matters..."

The dawn sunlight slowly rose on the boundary between the snowfield and the forest. As the sunlight illuminated the allied army’s camp, the enormous encampment immediately began to operate like an awakening giant beast.
Countless soldiers emerged from their tents, forming military arrays, marching towards the front lines.
Fierce warhorses neighed, thunderous war drums were sounded, generals displayed their prowess, and chariots rumbled loudly...
