Chapter 897 Five Terrifying Treasure Swords
“Wow! Sister is so amazing.”
Qianqian exclaimed, echoing Qi Huang’s words from the side without thinking.
However, Tao Chun and Ni Xian’er were the opposite. The two women exchanged glances, their beautiful eyes filled with worry. Who exactly was the Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor? He was one of the six great Immortal Emperors of the Immortal Realm. He had conquered countless battles throughout his life without a single defeat, stepping over the corpses of countless Ghost Tribe members to reach this point. His strength was immense, and the dense corpses on the walls of Extreme Violet City were the best testament to that.
“Fairy Chen, are you serious?”
Ni Xian’er asked cautiously.
“Fairy Chen, this Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor is incredibly powerful. His spiritual sense can encompass almost half a star domain. Under his watchful eye, let alone stealing a corpse, even stealing a brick would be as difficult as ascending to heaven. I think it’s best not to stir up trouble,”
Tao Chun advised sternly.
“Steal? I never said steal, I’m taking it,”
Qi Huang corrected confidently. Her spiritual sense had already reached the fourth level of Heavenly Immortal. Although she might not be able to defeat the Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor with a hundred percent certainty, in terms of speed, she was definitely a hundred percent faster than him.
Ni Xian’er and Tao Chun exchanged shocked glances, regretting following along. Were they going to save people or send themselves to their deaths?
Cheng Hong Ling, standing nearby, thought for a moment and then transmitted her thoughts telepathically: “I know you want to gain resources and become stronger as quickly as possible, but it’s still best to be cautious. You’ve made deals with so many evil spirits, and these clearly can’t be completed in a short period. Once your whereabouts are locked onto midway, we won’t just be facing the Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor, but potentially all the Immortals of the entire Immortal Realm.”
“Don’t worry, I will ensure absolute secrecy during the transaction. Besides, even if we are discovered, so what? Don’t forget we have the Assimilation Power on us. As long as we escape to the lower realm, what can those Immortals do to us?”
Qi Huang replied proudly.
Cheng Hong Ling was stunned for a moment and then realized with a look of understanding, “That method is quite good. Immortals cannot use the Assimilation Power, so they naturally cannot come to the Cultivation World to trouble us. However, that’s assuming you can escape! For the sake of safety, I suggest we conduct the transaction in the Cultivation World as well.”
“My wife is indeed considerate,”
Qi Huang thought for a moment before wholeheartedly agreeing.
After about half a month of teleportation, the women finally arrived at Extreme Violet City on Extreme Violet Star, which was the Imperial Capital of the Prosperous Stars Immortal Kingdom.
Qi Huang observed the East Gate with her spiritual sense and realized she had thought things were too simple. The corpses of the two Kings and three Queens were nailed to the city walls by five treasure swords. Not only were these five treasure swords made of special materials, but they were also continuously absorbing spiritual energy from the earth through the city walls. They were clearly not ordinary items.
In addition, the city walls of Extreme Violet City were indeed covered with dense evil spirits, a large portion of which were still struggling and letting out painful wails, which was truly terrifying.
“Sister, how is my Empress?”
Qianqian asked impatiently. The other two women also showed anxious expressions.
“It’s just as the rumors say, their heads were cut off by the Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor, and they are now displayed outside the East Gate as a warning,”
Qi Huang hesitated before telling the truth.
“This beast worse than an animal! It’s one thing to kill my Empress, but to let her old body be exhumed for ten years… If I don’t kill him, I am not human!”
Ni Xian’er gritted her red lips, trembling as she cursed.
“Just killing him is too good for him. If that day ever comes, I will hang his corpse in front of my Empress’s grave for a hundred years,”
Tao Chun added, still not feeling satisfied.
“Wuwu… Empress…”
Qianqian could only cry.
“Don’t worry, that day will come,”
Qi Huang comforted her. Most of these Immortals had become lackeys of the Heavenly Dao. Even if she and the Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor did not fight to the death this time, they would surely meet again in the future.
“When do you plan to act?”
Cheng Hong Ling asked.
“The corpses of their Empresses are pinned by three treasure swords, and they don’t seem to be ordinary items. I need to understand them first,”
Qi Huang replied after some thought.
“That’s fine. We’re newcomers, and acting rashly carries great risk,”
Cheng Hong Ling expressed her support.
“You three, disguise yourselves first. It seems we’ll be staying in Extreme Violet City for a while,”
Qi Huang instructed the three evil spirit princesses beside her, handing them the disguise items she had prepared from her storage ring.
The three evil spirit princesses began to disguise themselves. The most important part was to cover their crimson eyes with fake corneas.
After everything was ready, Qi Huang led the four women towards Extreme Violet City, deliberately choosing to enter through the West Gate.
“Why didn’t we go through the East Gate? I want to see my Empress,”
Tao Chun quickly noticed something was wrong and asked.
“Yes, I want to see my Empress too. I haven’t seen her for ten years,”
Ni Xian’er also said pitifully.
“Uh… I was afraid you would lose control and alert the snake while it is still in its lair,”
Qi Huang could only tell the truth.
“Don’t worry, we will definitely try our best to control our emotions,”
The two women promised.
“What about her?”
Cheng Hong Ling looked at the clueless Qianqian and asked.
The two women looked at each other speechlessly, and could only accept the arrangement.
Qi Huang continued to lead the women forward, and soon they arrived at the city gate, where they saw the dense evil spirits on the city walls.
The three Ghost Tribe princesses trembled violently because they saw that many of the evil spirits were still struggling in pain, attracting a crowd to watch and mock them. The scene was simply unbearable to look at.
“Sister, they are really pitiful,”
Qianqian frowned.
“Don’t talk nonsense,”
Qi Huang quickly made a shushing gesture and continued to lead the women into the city.
After entering Extreme Violet City, Qi Huang found an inn to stay in and ordered a few small dishes.
“What are you ordering? Are you hungry?”
Cheng Hong Ling asked curiously via telepathic transmission.
“I want to gather information, so you naturally have to patronize their business,”
Qi Huang explained.
“Aren’t you patronizing their business by renting a room? You are truly a great benefactor!”
Cheng Hong Ling couldn’t help but tease.
Qi Huang immediately scratched her head with a silly smile; she never liked owing favors to others, even strangers.
After entering the room, the three Ghost Tribe princesses were lost in thought, and even little Qianqian was silent, clearly deeply shocked.
“Fortunately, I had the foresight not to take them through the East Gate, otherwise we would have been exposed by now,”
Qi Huang couldn’t help but think to herself.
“No wonder those Ghost Tribe members rushed to Extreme Violet City one after another to die. It turns out their relatives are still alive,”
Ni Xian’er gritted her teeth.
“The Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor is intentionally letting them linger on, with the purpose of attracting more Ghost Tribe members to die,”
Tao Chun deduced.
“He has quite a large appetite, isn’t he afraid of indigestion?”
Qi Huang couldn’t help but mock.
“Unfortunately, in the entire Immortal Realm, there are no longer any Ghost Tribe members who can give him indigestion,”
Tao Chun said sadly.
“The Ghost Tribe is no good, but I am! You just watch, this time I will make him vomit everything he has eaten, with interest,”
Qi Huang raised her chin slightly.
“Your orders, guests!”
At this moment, the innkeeper’s voice sounded from outside the door.
Qi Huang restrained herself a little and said, “Come in!”
As soon as she finished speaking, a short innkeeper walked in carrying the dishes. When he saw the room full of beauties, his eyes went straight and he forgot to put down the food.
“Are they good-looking? Do you want to close the door and take your time looking?”
Qi Huang kindly suggested.
“I beg your pardon… Fairy… I beg your pardon! It was my negligence!”
The innkeeper trembled and quickly put down the food and apologized.
“If you want to apologize, show some sincerity. I want to ask you some things,”
Qi Huang seized the opportunity to “extort” him.
“Please speak! Please speak! I will tell you everything I know,”
The innkeeper nodded and bowed.
“This is our first time in Extreme Violet City. When we just entered, we saw five powerful evil spirits nailed to the city wall at the East Gate. They should be those two Kings and three Queens, right? What is the origin of those five treasure swords?”
Qi Huang then asked.
“Reporting to the Fairy, these five treasure swords are no ordinary items. You should know about treasure lands, right? In the Immortal Realm, the best treasure land on a star is an Earth-grade treasure land. It is the convergence point of all spiritual veins. The Earth-grade treasure land of Extreme Violet Star is beneath our feet, which is where Extreme Violet City is located,”
The innkeeper explained first.
“So?”
Qi Huang asked curiously.
“The Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor forged those five treasure swords using the spiritual veins of this Earth-grade treasure land. The two are combined into one, like conjoined lotuses, closely linked. To shake them, you would need the power to shake the entire Extreme Violet Star,”
The innkeeper revealed with reverence.
“Although Extreme Violet Star is large, shaking it should not be difficult, right? Even the lowest-level Immortals can do it,”
Qi Huang showed a hint of disdain.
“Fairy, you are mistaken. Extreme Violet Star is different from other stars,”
The innkeeper shook his head.
“Oh? What’s different about it?”
Qi Huang became interested.
“The best treasure land on a star is an Earth-grade treasure land, but the best treasure land in a star system is a Heaven-grade treasure land. Extreme Violet Star is located above the Heaven-grade treasure land of this star domain. So, if anyone wants to move Extreme Violet Star, they have to ask themselves if they can shake the entire star domain,”
The innkeeper said with a surprising statement.
“Are you saying that if someone wants to move those five treasure swords, it’s equivalent to challenging the entire star domain?”
Qi Huang asked in disbelief.
“Yes, those evil spirits on the walls of Extreme Violet City are the best answer. They don’t even have the qualification to see the Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor,”
The innkeeper reminded her.
“It’s like a nesting doll here!”
Qi Huang was shocked.
“This is the meaning of the constant warfare between Immortal Kingdoms – the purpose is to compete for better treasure lands,”
The innkeeper further explained.
“I didn’t expect a mere innkeeper to know so much,”
Ni Xian’er said in surprise.
“You flatter me, Fairy. Living in the Imperial Capital and making a living in an inn, one naturally hears a lot,”
The innkeeper replied modestly.
“Do you have the ability to shake the entire star domain?”
Cheng Hong Ling transmitted her thoughts to Qi Huang, not feeling reassured.
