How is this possible? Didn’t this Alliance Leader send an oral command to Elder Zou? Could it be that some immortal force is acting against us!
Alliance Leader Wei roared emotionally, because he understood what that meant.
Hearing this, all the high-level figures in the Great Hall turned their attention to an Elder. This person’s surname was Ding, and he was the uncle of Ding Yao.
“Elder Ding, it wouldn’t be your Ding family, would it? If I remember correctly, your nephew Ding Yao is a suitor of the Sect Leader of Lingxi Sect.”
Alliance Leader Wei’s expression turned stern.
“Alliance Leader, please be clear. It is absolutely not our Ding family. The Immortal Alliance and the Immortal Families are a community of interest. We wouldn’t be so foolish as to do something so detrimental and unrewarding for a woman. If you don’t believe me, you can send people to investigate.”
Elder Ding quickly bowed and explained.
“Elder Feng, tell this Alliance Leader, is it the Ding family?”
Alliance Leader Wei immediately turned to the Elder who had reported the news and asked.
“Alliance Leader, it is indeed not the Ding family. The immortal from Lingxi Sect came to the Cultivation World through those evil spirits’ teleportation gate.”
Elder Feng quickly explained.
“Then it’s not surprising.”
Alliance Leader Wei’s gaze became extremely cold.
Upon hearing this, Elder Ding breathed a long sigh of relief. He had already learned the news of his nephew’s death. If he were to cause further trouble, it would be like adding frost to snow for the Ding family.
“Alliance Leader, we need to think of a countermeasure. One immortal is enough to threaten the rule of the Immortal Alliance.”
“Yes, you sent Elder Zou to deliver the oral command, which directly offended Lingxi Sect. That immortal will definitely not let us off.”
“This group of damn evil spirits! Why would they create a teleportation gate out of nowhere? Now not only we will suffer, but they won’t have it easy either.”
…
A group of high-level figures were as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
What are you panicking about? So what if she’s an immortal? Since she can come to the Cultivation World, it means her strength has at most reached the Heavenly Punishment Realm, or perhaps it’s just a clone!
“Alliance Leader is wise. I heard that she is indeed just a clone of the immortal from Lingxi Sect.”
Elder Feng said admiringly.
“Is that so? That’s great. Alliance Leader is also a Heavenly Punishment Realm expert, so she might not be weaker than her.”
Hearing this, the high-level figures below suddenly realized, and they all calmed down one by one.
“Alliance Leader, your subordinate has one more thing to report. During the ancestral ceremony of Lingxi Sect, the leader of that foreign evil spirit interfered and killed all the experts present who had reached the Shentong Realm or above.”
Elder Feng continued to report.
“Elder Zou didn’t escape? Didn’t he have the protection of the Immortal Tablet?”
Alliance Leader Wei asked subconsciously.
“The opponent was too strong, they could actually resist the Immortal Might, so not a single cultivator below the Shentong Realm could escape alive.”
Elder Feng sighed.
“What? Resisting Immortal Might? What kind of strength does that require? Mid-stage Heavenly Punishment Realm, or late-stage?”
“Only cultivators at least at the late-stage Heavenly Punishment Realm can withstand the backlash of the Immortal Might protection.”
“If that evil spirit is equivalent to a late-stage Heavenly Punishment Realm cultivator, then wouldn’t it be stronger than the Alliance Leader?”
The high-level figures below showed expressions of horror.
“Didn’t he fight with that immortal from Lingxi Sect?”
Alliance Leader Wei asked with a grave tone.
“They fought, and they shattered a large area of the spatial barrier. No one knows the outcome, but it seems both of them are alive.”
Elder Feng explained the situation.
“A draw?”
Alliance Leader Wei pondered.
“By the way, Alliance Leader, that evil spirit leader also declared that he would kill all cultivators above the Shentong Realm in the Cultivation World of our Kaiyuan Star.
Elder Feng reported with a solemn expression.
“What? Then what should we do? If the opponent is truly a late-stage Heavenly Punishment Realm expert, we have no ability to resist.”
“Alliance Leader, you must save us. Now the Immortal Alliance only has you as a Heavenly Punishment Realm expert!”
“But the problem is that Alliance Leader is only in the mid-stage Heavenly Punishment Realm. How can he save us?”
As soon as this was said, all the high-level figures in the Great Hall panicked because they were all cultivators in the Shentong Realm.
Alliance Leader Wei’s expression was solemn, and he fell into deep thought, while the scene below had already descended into chaos.
“Alas, if we had known this would happen, we should have helped Lingxi Sect open the spatial barrier. As long as we were on good terms with them, we would have the protection of an immortal now and wouldn’t have to fear that foreign evil spirit.”
“Yes, Alliance Leader thought he could control the situation, which was purely playing with fire and burning himself!”
“How about asking the Alliance Leader to go and apologize? As long as the people of Lingxi Sect are appeased, they might help us through this tribulation.”
The high-level figures below began to single out Alliance Leader Wei, the culprit, and verbally denounce him.
“Be quiet!”
Alliance Leader Wei was furious. He crushed the armrest of the chair with his hand, then stood up and roared, “Are there any problems with the decisions this Alliance Leader made? If we had helped the immortal from Lingxi Sect descend, what kind of say would you have in the Cultivation World of Kaiyuan Star in the future?”
The middle and high-level figures were instantly silenced, but they all muttered in protest.
Alliance Leader Wei took a deep breath before speaking slowly, “Everyone, if that evil spirit’s strength is equivalent to a late-stage Heavenly Punishment Realm, I cannot deal with it. However, it’s not entirely without a chance. Now we only have one method to defeat it.”
What method?
The high-level figures quickly asked.
“Doesn’t our Kaiyuan Star Cultivation World have thirteen Immortal Tablets? Carve my name onto your family’s Immortal Tablet, and gather the protective Immortal Might of the thirteen Immortal Tablets. I don’t believe I still can’t suppress that evil spirit.”
“Alliance Leader revealed his plan.
“Alliance Leader is wise. The thirteen Immortal Tablets combined would probably make even an immortal tremble.”
Elder Ding said excitedly.
“Alliance Leader, we fully support you! As long as we can eliminate that evil spirit, your name can remain on our sect’s Immortal Tablet forever.”
“Us too. As long as you give the order, I will immediately have my family carve your name.”
“Alliance Leader, there is no time to delay. Please give the order.”
The high-level figures pondered for a moment, then spoke in unison, because they also knew they had no other choice.
“Good, very good! Since that’s the case, then I’ll trouble everyone. Let’s take action now.”
A hint of smugness appeared on Alliance Leader Wei’s face. With the thirteen Immortal Tablets added to his body, if he succeeded in killing the evil spirit, he would become the supreme being of Kaiyuan Star, both in status and strength.
Just two hours later, the thirteen major immortal forces of the Cultivation World fulfilled their promise and carved Alliance Leader Wei’s name onto their family’s Immortal Tablets. His full name was “Wei Zhuo.”
Qi Huang saw everything with her spiritual sense, and the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but curve slightly. The thirteen Immortal Tablets added to one’s body were indeed terrifying, but that was only from the perspective of cultivators. From the perspective of someone at her level, the thirteen Immortal Tablets combined only touched the threshold of a Human-level immortal, while that Evil General was a mid-stage Human-Demon Level zombie. The gap between them was vast, so the Immortal Alliance’s plan was destined to fail.
Qi Huang came back to her senses, then looked at the large expanse of shattered spatial barrier in the sky, hesitating in her heart.
Wife, what should we do about this large area of spatial rifts? Should I mend it or not?
Qi Huang sought advice from her lover in the storage ring.
“Can you mend it?”
Cheng Hong Ling asked curiously.
“I should be able to!”
Qi Huang was somewhat uncertain. She released a strand of boundless demonic hair and inserted it into a piece of spatial fragment, dragging it to the side. Then, she used her hair to pierce another spatial fragment, connecting the two like mending clothes.
The two spatial rifts closed, and the rift in the middle began to heal rapidly.
“You can!”
Qi Huang immediately reaffirmed affirmatively.
“Then mend it. Otherwise, when Zhong Zhen arrives, we won’t be able to play along.”
Cheng Hong Ling suggested.
“But…”
Qi Huang hesitated again and again, still unable to make up her mind.
“What’s wrong?”
Cheng Hong Ling asked doubtfully.
“Wife, you also know that I have seen Lu Yao’s memories, and I empathize with her experiences, so I am very disgusted with the matter of mending the sky.”
Qi Huang spoke her mind directly.
Cheng Hong Ling was quiet for a moment, then said, “If you don’t want to mend it, then don’t. We have Lu Yao’s blood on us, and we are considered her descendants. We cannot do anything unfilial. However, you need to think of a plan. Once Zhong Zhen appears, how will you deal with her?”
“Okay, but I still hope she doesn’t appear before these spatial rifts heal.”
Qi Huang prayed inwardly.
In the following days, Qi Huang arranged for the reconstruction of Lingxi Sect while monitoring the movements of the Evil General.
Just the next morning, the Evil General attacked the Immortal Alliance Main Altar. It was obvious that he wanted to gnaw on this “hard bone” first, thereby deterring the entire Cultivation World.
