Chapter 1077: Chapter 994: Return to the Heaven Ascending Plateau

After relaying Wen Ping’s words, Chen Xie did not linger in Jun Tianyi’s camp, but immediately returned to the Sect.

He of course knew why Jun Tianyi had reacted so urgently.

Because there had always been a Black Shadow watching him.

As soon as he came out of the Teleportation Array, Chen Xie headed straight for Tingyu Pavilion.

To meet Wen Ping face to face!

"What is it this time?"

Before Chen Xie arrived, Wen Ping had been preparing to make a trip to the Final Forbidden Area. He hadn’t even stepped out the door yet before Chen Xie intercepted him.

Chen Xie hurriedly said, "I just learned that the matter of Di Chen’s death has blown up on Jun Tianyi, and it was even taken by the Long Family, one of the six great families of the Primordial Yang Domain, all the way to the Primordial Yang Domain Lord’s Mansion. Sect Leader, if they really dig into this, they won’t just trace it back to Jun Tianyi, they might even trace it to our Immortal Sect."

Hearing this, Wen Ping murmured softly.

"The Long Family..."

After murmuring, he spoke again.

"So now my Immortal Sect and the Red Domain Lord’s Mansion have become grasshoppers tied to the same rope?" Wen Ping gave a helpless smile.

More than helpless, he felt resigned at how "coincidences" kept piling up.

He wasn’t particularly bothered about them "thoroughly investigating" anything.

Chen Xie picked up the thread, "You could say that. Before I went over, Jun Tianyi had just ordered the Di Family wiped out. I’d guess that after today, there won’t be a single Di clansman left alive who can talk. The reason he is so desperate and willing to go all in is because he’s pinned all his hopes on cooperating with our Immortal Sect. So, Sect Leader, I believe that Jun Tianyi in his current state can actually be used a bit, to buy us more time. After all, you’ve already decided to establish our mountain gate in the Black Domain. If we can avoid fighting on two fronts, then we should avoid it."

"That’s workable. When the time comes, we can let a few Vortex Maps with weaker Special Abilities leak out and let the Primordial Yang Domain Lord’s Mansion see our value." Ever since feeling the pressure from the Sky-Shrouding Tower, Wen Ping now felt that, regarding the matter with You Country, the later the conflict came, the better.

No matter what, he had to drag things out until after the mountain gate was built in the Black Domain.

Because by then, the Immortal Sect’s Celestial Unrestricted battle power would definitely not be limited to just the Sword Demon.

"Then what do you need me to do?"

"You don’t need to do anything. When I meet him tomorrow, I’ll tell him. Right, there is one more task for you."

"Please instruct me, Sect Leader."

"Run an ad every day in your Immortal Daily, offering a reward for Demon corpses. They don’t need to be alive, just the corpses are fine. Even if they’re somewhat damaged, that’s acceptable, but the Bloodline Level must be extremely high, or their Innate Divine Techniques extremely strong. As long as someone finds a Demon corpse that satisfies me, I’ll give them a Four-Vortex Vortex Map with a Special Ability attached."

No one knew about the Incubation Egg, so Wen Ping naturally planned to turn everyone under heaven into tools.

A Four-Vortex Vortex Map with a Special Ability attached as bait.

Who could resist?

Besides, for a huge portion of people, the corpse of a dead Demon was basically useless.

Chen Xie asked, "Sect Leader, should that ad be issued in your name, or...?"

"In your name."

"Understood."

"Alright, go handle your business."

"Then I’ll go find Elder Sword Demon first."

Chen Xie bowed in farewell and left Tingyu Pavilion.

But on his way down from Tingyu Pavilion, he kept guessing what the Sect Leader wanted Demon corpses for.

He racked his brains but couldn’t figure it out, and finally gave up.

After Chen Xie left, Wen Ping immediately made a trip to the Final Forbidden Area, first to locate the corpse of Qiongji that had been killed the other day by Dark Stream Annihilation.

When he left, Wen Ping went to the ancient tomb where Weisheng Xingyu was.

He opened the system panel, which showed that the Life Technique inheritance in the ancient tomb had reached seventy percent.

Just thirty percent more and the inheritance would be complete.

Wen Ping was somewhat looking forward to the Life Technique.

After Weisheng Xingyu obtained the Life Technique inheritance, would she be able to become a Wei Demi-Immortal who could "defy heaven by half"?

...

The next day.

After breakfast, Wen Ping used the Teleportation Array to arrive at the Heaven Ascending Plateau.

However, he didn’t rush to find Jun Tianyi right away, intending to first go check on Yun Liao and the others.

When traveling outside, they represented the Immortal Sect.

How were their Essence Qi and spirit holding up?

"Where are they?"

Wen Ping asked Chen Xie beside him.

Chen Xie replied, "Sect Leader, the finals begin tonight, so right now they’re all at their lodgings, studying strategies for the finals."

"How far is it from here to where they’re staying?"

"Just up ahead."

Chen Xie pointed to a tall building not far away.

Wen Ping nodded.

He strolled toward it.

He hadn’t even reached the lodgings yet when Yun Liao and the others were already waiting outside.

Not only the many Disciples of the Immortal Sect, but also the family elders of those Disciples.

Because their children had made it into the finals, these family elders had all taken up residence nearby.

Seeing their kids, and seeing Elder Yun Liao, who led the group, come out of the Inn, they came out as well, curious.

"Sect Leader!"

Yun Liao bowed.

The other Disciples followed suit, bowing along with him.

The Earth Unrestricted Experts who had been watching curiously to see why Yun Liao and the others were coming out of the Inn suddenly stared in shock at Wen Ping and Chen Xie.

The bystanders who had no idea what was going on also crowded over.

The Immortal Sect’s name, thanks to the Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking and the Immortal Daily, had now become truly famous far and wide.

So everyone was extremely curious as to who exactly the Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect was and how strong he might be.

Now that the Immortal Sect’s Sect Leader was standing right before them, how could they not be shocked?

The Patriarchs from the surrounding Five-star Influences and Four-star Influences also moved over and bowed to Wen Ping from Yun Liao’s side.

"Yun Chen, Patriarch of the Yun Family, brings the entire clan to pay respects to Sect Leader Wen."

"Wang Jiutian, Patriarch of the Wang Family, brings the elders to pay respects to Sect Leader Wen."

...

Dozens of Four-star and Five-star Influences spoke in unison.

Thirty to forty Earth Unrestricted Experts bowed together.

In the eyes of the onlookers, this scene was shock upon shock.

In the past, only the three great influences of the Red Domain ever received such courtesy.

Just when everyone thought this was the end of it, two more groups flew in from the sky.

A grand and mighty entourage!

An overwhelming presence!

The leaders were even more astonishing!

"That’s Xuan Court Pavilion!"

"The Pavilion Master of Xuan Court Pavilion, Yun Shui Zai Tian, has come!"

"And the Yin Yang Two Elders, they’re here too!"

Gasps erupted from the crowd.

This kind of reception was probably something only a Domain Master could enjoy.

Of the three great influences of old, the Red Leaf Sect was now just an empty shell, while Xuan Court Pavilion and the Yin Yang Family were showing such respect to the Immortal Sect.

The moment the Immortal Sect’s Sect Leader arrived, they rushed over to pay respects. That was more than enough to prove that, in their eyes, the Immortal Sect’s status was already no less than that of the Domain Lord’s Mansion.

Under the stunned gazes of the crowd, Yun Shui Zai Tian’s bold laughter rang out, "Hahaha—Sect Leader Wen, long time no see, I trust you’ve been Wu Yang."

The Yin Yang Two Elders hurriedly spoke as well.

"Sect Leader Wen!"

"Sect Leader Wen!"

The three of them turned into streaks of light and in an instant arrived before Wen Ping.

Wen Ping frowned slightly, then glanced around at the surroundings and said with helpless humor, "With everyone being this enthusiastic, if I’d known, I would have slipped into the city quietly."

As soon as he said this, Yun Shui Zai Tian, the Yin Yang Two Elders, and the others burst into laughter.

While they were laughing, many people couldn’t help turning their gaze to Chen Xie behind Wen Ping.

Although Chen Xie wasn’t eye-catching, the few people standing behind him were all very familiar faces.

They were all powerful figures who had once been famous throughout the Red Domain.

Rumor had it, they had all defected to the All-Knowing Tower.

Now that they were standing behind the man behind Wen Ping, it indicated that the person behind Wen Ping was most likely the Tower Master of the All-Knowing Tower.

The mysterious Tower Master of the All-Knowing Tower who knew everything!
