Chapter 1016: Expedition Begins

In the past, the publicly acknowledged strongest True Immortal of the Spirit Luxuriant World was Zhang Xuansheng. His cultivation had reached the peak of the second tier Martial Void Realm. He was also half a step into the third tier.

Because of Yifeng’s failure at the very end and his sacrifice for his Eternal Palace and Yang Taihe, he managed to open the gates of the third tier Martial Void Realm for his ancestor.

What was surprising was that Yang Taihe didn’t choose to push further, allowing the rankings of True Immortals in the Spirit Luxuriant World to remain the same.

Above the heavenly screen, the True Immortals left up there stared at the scene with complex emotions.

However, since Yifeng failed his ascension, there was no need for any of them to remain. When they were about to return to their respective factions, they raised their heads in unison and stared at a certain point in the void.

Moments later, several transmission talismans appeared and landed in their hands.

“Someone called ‘Huang Yu’ in the Star Origin City requests to visit True Immortal Kou Chongxue of the Spirit Luxuriant World. It’s said that he has important matters to report!”

Those were the contents of those transmission talismans, and Kou Chongxue’s eyebrows started jumping. When he saw their gazes on him, Kou Chongxue knew that they received the same message. The only thing they didn’t know was the person indicated in the report.

When he chose to establish himself in Star Origin City, Huang Yu should have already changed his identity. He requested to meet Kou Chongxue with his old identity in order to keep his current identity safe, and he also wanted to draw the attention of the experts of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

Is this so urgent that he is afraid either Little Xia or I won’t be able to get the news in time? Or is he fucking around and trying to get the attention of the other True Immortals? Well... His identity as Huang Yu should have already attracted the attention of the factions by now. This report seems serious. He might truly have news that will affect our Spirit Luxuriant World...

Making up his mind, Kou Chongxue tossed 2 other transmission talismans at the You Continent and the Eternal Palace before addressing the rest with a chuckle. “Shall we head over together?”

Their gazes met the next moment, and they seemed to have reached an agreement.

With a smile forming on his face, Kou Chongxue rushed to the Three Unity Island and the other True Immortals quickly followed.

The spatial tunnel the Spirit Luxuriant World connected to Star Origin City was located on Three Unity Island. The great powers of the Spirit Luxuriant World had long since constructed the Three Unity Island into a giant trading hub. After establishing the spatial tunnel, the great powers of the Spirit Luxuriant World surrounded the transmission platform with powerful formations and stationed high-level experts there all year round. The entire area was heavily fortified, but that didn’t stop Three Unity Island from developing into a massive trade hub.

Without alerting anyone on the island, the True Immortals arrived directly on the platform that was surrounded by countless formations.

Only then did the Martial Dipper Realm experts stationed there discover those who came. They displayed expressions of reverence along with fear.

Kou Chongxue chuckled softly, “There’s no need to pay much attention to us. Feel free to be at ease. Connect the spatial tunnel now and allow that person to head over to our island.”

“Yes, True Immortal!”

The 5 True Immortals who arrived quickly retreated, and powerful spatial fluctuations soon filled the platform. A spatial tunnel was created and a figure tumbled out and quickly stabilized himself.

Huang Yu swept his gaze across the platform and shielded his eyes slightly while muttering, “Oh shit! Why are you all here?! Am I really that important right now?”

True Immortals were basically mobile World Origin Sources and even though those lower-level cultivators were merely looking at them while their domains had already been restrained the best they could, they would be unable to resist the power of assimilation.

Things were especially bad for Huang Yu since he was surrounded by 5 of them at once.

There was no way he could hide what he just said from those True Immortals either. However, Kou Chongxue didn’t seem to mind and he chuckled in response, “What’s the matter?! How important does it have to be for you to be so anxious that you need to meet me even if it means revealing your identity?”

Huang Yu didn’t plan to hide anything from the other True Immortals either. As he panted heavily, he muttered, “One of the flying ships from the Azure Flame World has been found by the Star Origin Guards. From those on the flying ship, they learned that the Azure Flame World is about to face a foreign invasion and the higher-ups of the Star Origin Guards have already heard the news...”

“What?!” The expressions of the True Immortals changed in unison. “How is that possible?! How did the flying ships of the Azure Flame World arrive at the Land of Star Origin?”

Huang Yu stared at Kou Chongxue whose expression was solemn at the moment and he explained, “The area of activity of the Star Origin Guards in the vast sea of stars is a lot further than we imagined. The Azure Flame World’s flying ship probably flew around randomly after their True Immortal sent them deep into the sea of stars and ran into the Star Ships that belonged to the Star Origin Guards.”

The True Immortals thought back to Kou Chongxue’s reminder that the Azure Flame World had been sending out flying ships to explore the sea of stars. They seem to be trying to look for foreign powers out there to ask for help.

Kou Chongxue muttered slowly, “From the looks of it, their Elysium should possess some sort of inheritance that Yuan Cangming obtained ever since entering the Martial Void Realm to learn that they aren’t the only ones in the vast sea of stars.”

Liu Jingsheng continued, “The problem now is... Have they found out the position of the Azure Flame World? Will our conspiracy against the Azure Flame World be revealed to Star Origin City?”

Everyone turned to stare at Huang Yu once again. Even though the Elysiums sent their spies into the city to look for news, they were clearly far from comparable to Huang Yu’s skills and they didn’t have his connections. None of their spies had the qualifications to come into contact with news like that.

With such an urgent matter at hand, they couldn’t be bothered with the institution’s methods. They needed to learn of the Star Origin City’s intentions before anything else.

2 more figures appeared at that moment as Yang Taihe rushed over with Shang Xia.

The instant they appeared, the True Immortals present turned to stare at Yang Taihe whose projection still seemed a little off. Huang Yu was the only person who was staring at Shang Xia and when he discovered the strange aura around the youngster, he quickly lowered his gaze. It seemed as though the ability Shang Xia’s aura had to assimilate those around him was even stronger than Kou Chongxue and Liu Jingsheng!

This brat... Not only did he enter the Martial Void Realm... Could he actually be stronger than Kou Chongxue?!

Huang Yu’s thoughts started to spin as strange lights flickered in his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking about.

Whatever it was, everyone present relayed the news to Yang Taihe and Shang Xia and after learning what happened, their expressions sank.

Kou Chongxue noticed that Huang Yu was still feeling uneasy, and he quickly asked, “Is there something else you need to inform me?”

“Oh...” Huang Yu grunted once. “The Martial Dipper Realm leader of the Azure Flame World was assassinated by me when we discovered them.”

“WHAT?!” Those True Immortals were no longer able to keep their calm and Li Jidao couldn’t help but scold him. “How did you do something like that?! Why didn’t you start with this?”

Huang Yu’s expression flickered continuously. Even though he was questioned by a True Immortal, he was able to maintain his composure. Eventually, he mumbled, “You... You guys didn’t ask!”

“Preposterous! You...” No junior had ever spoken so disrespectfully to Li Jidao. Anger surged in his heart as he got ready to rage, but he seemed to recall something as he turned to stare at Kou Chongxue and Shang Xia before snorting once. He no longer spoke after that.

Huang Yu’s composure and Li Jidao’s anger were clearly presented to the True Immortals present, and all of them revealed strange expressions.

Eventually, Kou Chongxue growled and snapped at him, “Enough! Mind your manners. What else do you have to report? Spit all of it out right now. If you continue hiding these things and utter nonsense...”

Huang Yu pouted slightly before he shot several quick winks at Shang Xia. Turning to put on a respectful attitude, he continued, “The Martial Dipper Realm expert on their flying ship seemed prepared. After he was saved and brought back to the city by the Star Origin Guards, he immediately requested help. He didn’t mention anything about the position of the Azure Flame World and he said that he wanted to see the True Immortals of at least 3 powers. He had a Void Artifact on him and would be able to communicate with his True Immortal in case anything happened. He would also be able to determine if the coordinates of their world had been revealed.”

Lu Wuzi interrupted suddenly, “So... You assassinated the Martial Dipper Realm leader of the Azure Flame World when the Star Origin Guards were gathering their True Immortals?”

Huang Yu nodded in response. “Exactly. That’s the best method I could think of to delay the Star Origin Guards from locating the Azure Flame World.”

As for how Huang Yu learned of the Star Origin Guards’ discovery of the flying ship, how he assassinated their Martial Dipper Realm leader while retreating unharmed, how he avoided suspicion from the True Immortals in the Star Origin Guards, and how he was able to run all the way over to the Spirit Luxuriant World to make the report... Those weren’t things the other True Immortals could look into.

Of course, Kou Chongxue and Shang Xia were exceptions. They could pretty much guess that it had something to do with Luo Qi and Feng Ziyuan.

The only thing was... It had been less than 2 years since Huang Yu changed his identity to enter the Star Origin City. How was he able to establish a connection with the Star Origin Guards, much less Feng Ziyuan of all people?

From the looks of it, he managed to gain their trust.

The super spy of the Tongyou Institution truly had skills...

Huang Yu would most definitely tell Kou Chongxue and Shang Xia about what happened in detail, but it clearly wasn’t the time when there were so many True Immortals around.

“Right. Young Friend Huang, how long do you think you will be able to buy after killing the Azure Flame World’s Martial Dipper Realm expert?” Yang Taihe asked. His voice seemed slightly hoarse at the moment, but it was understandable after all he had been through.

Huang Yu shrugged his shoulders and replied, “That’s something only True Immortals like yourselves can guess. In my opinion, the True Immortal of the Azure Flame World that is shackled to his Elysium will most likely leave some traces in the flying ship. Not to mention the person I killed wasn’t the only Martial Dipper Realm expert on board... There were a bunch of Martial Extermination Realm juniors and I couldn’t kill them all in time.”

Yang Taihe nodded slightly before turning to Kou Chongxue. “We can’t waste any more time. Even if we aren’t fully prepared, I’m afraid you 3 have to take action now. All of us will provide assistance to the best of our abilities. We have to send the experts of our world over as soon as possible and we’ll be here to receive them when it’s over!”

Kou Chongxue’s expression was also solemn as he addressed everyone present. “Looks like we have no way out now. We need to take action before Star Origin City and the other worlds discover the Azure Flame World in order to reap the greatest benefits!”
