My Wife Divorced me At the Start but I Gained a Billionfold Repayment System Chapter 76 : Chapter 76

Chapter 76: The Qingxu Divine Pool

Deep within the Jade Emperor Sect.

“Patriarch, more than three hundred thousand people have already co today to offer birthday congratulations. Does the Patriarch intend to make an appearance?”

A middle-aged cultivator dressed in a golden robe with well-defined features bowed slightly and cupped his hands toward the imperial throne before him, which had been carved from a single block of Xuantian Immortal Jade.

Seated upon the throne was an amiable old man with a bald head and three-zhang-long white beard. At those words, he gave a slight nod.

He was none other than the founding Patriarch of the Jade Emperor Sect, the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch.

“This Venerable One is already aware. I shall make an appearance now.”

As the central figure of the birthday banquet, the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch naturally had to show himself. Besides, quite a few old friends had co, and he could not very well refuse to et them.

Hearing that, the Sect Master of the Jade Emperor Sect imdiately brightened and hurriedly straightened up.

“Patriarch, shall I accompany you out?”

“There is no need. Do as you please. This Patriarch will take a walk alone.”

The Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch waved his hand, and in the next instant, his entire figure vanished.

At the sight of this, Jade Emperor Sect Master Yu Baichuan froze for a mont, then revealed a bitter smile.

The Patriarch was still the sa familiar Patriarch as ever.

Forget it. He might as well go out himself and attend to the guests.

“Bah. They are always using this Patriarch to collect gifts, and the worst part is that none of the gifts ever make it into my hands.”

The Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch appeared outside the Jade Emperor Sect and spat out those words viciously.

Clearly, he had no desire at all to attend this sort of occasion. Over the course of his thirty-million-year life, he had already participated in far too many of them and had long since grown tired of it.

Just as the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch was planning to wander around for a while, he suddenly saw sothing, and his pupils could not help but tremble.

“That is... that fellow Wan Zhong? But did he not already fall?”

In the eyes of the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch, the people standing in the distance were precisely Lu Xunxian and his group. Yet his attention was not on Lu Xunxian and the others at all. Instead, he stared directly at the Immortal King of Myriad Weights standing beside them.

“No, that seems to be... his Divine Soul.”

“Well, that makes sense. That fellow had countless thods. It would not be strange for him to have left behind his Divine Soul.”

“It is just a pity that all three of them have already broken through to the Immortal Monarch Realm. Even if he has returned, he likely cannot turn the tide.”

Naturally, the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch knew about what had happened back then. Although he knew the Immortal King of Myriad Weights, they had only been acquaintances. Naturally, he could not possibly go so far as to kill three Immortal Monarchs for the sake of the Immortal King of Myriad Weights.

At that mont, Lu Xunxian looked in the direction of the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch.

“It seems that should be the person we are looking for.”

Before the others could react, Lu Xunxian brought them directly before the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch.

By now, the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch had already changed into a different appearance, looking like an utterly ordinary middle-aged man with no cultivation at all.

Seeing Lu Xunxian and the others approach, the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch imdiately put on an act, pretending to be foolish and trembling as he said, “Might these Seniors require sothing? If not, please allow to pass first.”

The Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch prided himself on his concealnt techniques. Unless the other party was at the sa Peak of the Immortal Monarch Realm, there was no way they could possibly see through his true body.

“Stop pretending. You are the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch, are you not?”

Lu Xunxian’s tone was calm, yet it admitted no doubt.

“No, I am not.”

The Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch stubbornly denied it, convinced that Lu Xunxian had rely gotten lucky.

Then Lu Xunxian casually raised a hand and stripped away the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch’s disguise.

At once, everyone froze.

The Immortal King of Myriad Weights was stunned. Luo Qianxue’s face filled with reverence. Lu Xiaoyao remained unchanged. Lu Qingyun, anwhile, looked openly disgusted.

But the one most shocked of all was the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch.

His pupils trembled violently. He was at the Peak of the Immortal Monarch Realm, yet Lu Xunxian had stripped away his disguise with a casual gesture. More importantly, he could not sense Lu Xunxian’s aura in the slightest.

Was he an Immortal Venerable? Or perhaps an even more terrifying Immortal Emperor?

At that thought, the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch could not help but feel his heart tremble. He swallowed hard, forcibly suppressing the shock in his heart, then cupped his hands respectfully toward Lu Xunxian.

“This junior, the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch, greets you, Senior. I did not know Senior had arrived. I ask Senior to forgive my lack of manners.”

In the Immortal Realm, strength was everything. The Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch might appear infinitely glorious before countless powerful figures, but before experts such as Immortal Venerables and Immortal Emperors, he was little more than a slightly stronger ant.

“You may rise. This ti, This Venerable One has co to your Jade Emperor Sect for the sake of borrowing your Qingxu Divine Pool. You do not object, do you?”

Lu Xunxian’s tone remained calm, but the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch understood perfectly well that he could only agree. He was not allowed to object. Otherwise, the Jade Emperor Sect would beco history.

“Senior, I have no objections.”

The Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch hurriedly answered, then took the initiative to personally lead them to the Qingxu Divine Pool.

He was no fool. Naturally, he knew this was a perfect opportunity for the Jade Emperor Sect to attach itself to a mighty expert at the level of an Immortal Venerable, or perhaps even an Immortal Emperor.

Although being at the Peak of the Immortal Monarch Realm looked glorious, he had been trapped at this realm for a full ten million years. Though his lifespan was endless, if there were a chance to go one step further, who would not want it?

“Lead the way.”

Very soon, under the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch’s guidance, they arrived at the depths of the Jade Emperor Sect, where a grand formation stood.

The Qingxu Divine Pool was the very foundation upon which the Jade Emperor Sect was established, so naturally it had to be protected by a grand formation.

With a wave of the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch’s hand, a golden token flew out from within his body. The mont it landed upon the formation, an opening appeared within it.

“Senior, please enter.”

After passing through the formation and entering the Qingxu Divine Pool, they were instantly overwheld by an incomparably mysterious sensation that spread through the air. The mont it entered their bodies, Luo Qianxue and the other two were all struck with shock.

They felt themselves being continuously improved.

Then they looked into the distance. There lay a milk-white pool, quietly resting there. Wisps of white Immortal Qi drifted upward from it, but the formation sealed them in place, making the entire Qingxu Divine Pool appear to be shrouded in immortal mist.

“Senior, this is the Qingxu Divine Pool of my Jade Emperor Sect. As long as one enters it and soaks within it, it can greatly temper the physical body and enhance one’s aptitude.”

As he said this, the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch looked extrely proud, for sothing like this was exceedingly rare even in the entire Immortal Realm.

He had rely been fortunate enough to seize one for himself.

“Oh? Then in all this ti, has no great expert ever tried to seize it by force?”

Looking at the Qingxu Divine Pool before him, Lu Xunxian seed sowhat surprised.

At those words, the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch looked slightly awkward.

“Naturally, there have been. It is only because I have so connection to a certain Immortal Venerable, and by borrowing that Immortal Venerable’s na, no one has dared co to my Jade Emperor Sect and cause trouble.”

What the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch said was indeed the truth. It was simply that he did not say the latter half aloud.

Seeing that the Jade Emperor Immortal Monarch did not continue, Lu Xunxian did not bother to chat further with him either. Instead, he looked toward Luo Qianxue and the other two.

“Make your preparations. Go down into the Qingxu Divine Pool and improve your aptitudes.”

“Yes, Master.”

As Luo Qianxue looked at the Qingxu Divine Pool, she felt an intense attraction toward it. If her master had not been standing beside her, she would already have leaped in.

But just as she was about to go down, she suddenly rembered one extrely important matter.

Should she enter wearing clothes or not?
