Chapter 657: Formation!
...
There's actually such a good thing?
The sect disciples' faces lit up with joy.
Just by properly rebuilding Kunlun Immortal Palace, they could beco mbers of Kunlun Immortal Palace. This... this was practically a reward!
What these sect disciples didn't know was that Kunlun Immortal Palace currently had no people left, and Hua Jin the True One desperately needed to replenish disciples.
If this were normal tis, she would have killed them all long ago.
anwhile, the sect elders looked pale, bitterly pleading.
But Hua Jin the True One had already returned to being that decisive and efficient Her Eminence. With restored strength, she spoke and acted with confidence.
"Little YiYi, you handle this. Complete soul annihilation, leave no opportunities... As for settling accounts with their corresponding sects, we'll deal with that slowly later!"
Wang Shouyi saw the tenderness in Hua Jin the True One's eyes and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness, Her Eminence was still the sa Her Eminence from before, not soone who changed just because her strength had recovered.
Though it sounded sowhat selfish, when he first discovered Hua Jin the True One's strength had returned to Void Shattering, he had genuinely felt a trace of unease.
"Yes, Her Eminence. I'll go imdiately."
Wang Shouyi sharpened his taphorical blade, turning toward those sect elders.
Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng exchanged glances, then walked to Hua Jin's left and right sides, adopting postures ready to act at any mont.
But Hua Jin showed no intention of being defensive.
"Do you two seniors have sothing to ask?" She respectfully cupped her hands, not displaying any arrogance before the two elders despite her restored strength. "Please speak directly, seniors. Hua Jin will tell everything she knows without holding back!"
Zhang Yibai was montarily stunned.
This Hua Jin the True One... was so obedient?
But he still didn't let his guard down. Perhaps this current obedience was just an act?
"Hua Jin, this old man notices your strength seems to have recovered rather quickly..."
"It has recovered." Hua Jin the True One showed no intention of hiding anything. "However, the specific details of how it recovered cannot be told to you." 𝐑𝘼ＮỗᛒЁṢ
She looked at Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng with complex eyes, pausing briefly. "Two seniors, you absolutely must not go to Kunlun Immortal Palace's Underground Palace. It's also best if you don't stay at Kunlun Immortal Palace, and don't wander near Great Thunder Temple either.
Right now, Great Thunder Temple has already dispatched two Demon Immortal avatars with formidable strength. If they catch you, you likely won't have any chance to escape."
"This..." Zhang Yibai's face showed astonishnt.
After all, he possessed a Great Ascension Stage divine soul, and his preliminary judgnt was that Hua Jin the True One wasn't lying.
This Hua Jin the True One genuinely had his and Gu Changsheng's best interests at heart.
Though not allowing them to stay at Kunlun Immortal Palace was a bit extre, wasn't it?
Could it be that...
The existence behind Kunlun Immortal Palace... such as beings similar to the Demon Immortals above Great Thunder Temple.
Had already detected the abnormalities in him and Gu Changsheng?
"But is there so difficulty you cannot speak of?" he asked.
"Yes." Hua Jin the True One nodded. "This is all I can say. Revealing more might allow those existences to detect it, which would an certain death for this junior, and no benefit whatsoever for you two seniors.
As long as this junior remains alive, I can still provide so intelligence to you two seniors."
Zhang Yibai pondered for a mont, then solemnly nodded.
He believed about half of what Hua Jin the True One said, and didn't plan to insist on taking Gu Changsheng to explore Kunlun Immortal Palace's Underground Palace anyway—he preferred to take advice. If he wanted to investigate, he didn't need to do it personally; he had plenty of thods.
He could simply transfer any disciple from Wind Spirit Sect to serve as a spy at Kunlun Immortal Palace.
Why go through all that trouble?
"Fine, since you've said so, then Gu Changsheng and I won't stay at Kunlun Immortal Palace. However..." He stared at Hua Jin's expression, pausing briefly. "Old Chen ntioned earlier that he would handle the Alchemy Pavilion, so this old man won't interfere.
Kunlun Immortal Palace needs rebuilding everywhere. For other areas, this old man can dispatch so Wind Spirit Sect disciples to lend a hand. So of them have received my true teachings and can also instruct new disciples in the Heavenly Divine Body Tempering Technique."
"No problem." Hua Jin the True One agreed without even thinking.
She wasn't unaware that Zhang Yibai was being cautious and planting spies.
But she didn't care.
As long as she had nothing to hide, then Zhang Yibai's planted spies would be genuine help for Kunlun Immortal Palace.
Wow.
She agreed just like that?
So obedient?
Then there was nothing more to say.
Even if Zhang Yibai wanted to remain suspicious, he couldn't maintain his vigilance anymore.
Even though Hua Jin the True One currently only had late-stage Void Shattering perfection cultivation, even if she advanced further, he still found her quite amiable.
The matter was settled.
Wang Shouyi dealt with the several elders who had led the looting. How many sect disciples had lied no longer mattered—this round's effect was mainly about making bloody examples.
Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng prepared to leave Kunlun Immortal Palace.
One returning to Exorcist Division to stand guard.
The other returning to Wind Spirit Sect to arrange for disciples to co to Kunlun Immortal Palace.
Just then, a surge of rich heaven and earth spiritual energy shot skyward.
The originally gloomy sky beca considerably clearer under the washing of that heaven and earth spiritual energy.
All three looked south simultaneously—the spiritual energy fluctuations were coming from that direction.
"This is..." Zhang Yibai narrowed his eyes.
"It's the Well of Heaven." Hua Jin the True One's face blossod with joy. "The third Well of Heaven has opened! It's the Demon Sealing Pagoda in Yun Province!"
"It must be Senior Chen." Wang Shouyi's face was full of worship. "Senior Chen ntioned earlier he was going to Yun Province's Demon Sealing Pagoda to find Muscle Tyrant. He must have found him now, and incidentally breached Yun Province's Demon Sealing Pagoda to open the Well of Heaven... Such capability is truly extraordinary!"
"With the third Well of Heaven opening, Celestial Jade Marrow will be born again." Hua Jin the True One pondered. "And this ti, the quality of the Celestial Jade Marrow will be no weaker than last ti, only...
Although Great Thunder Temple appears to exist in na only now, it actually has two Demon Immortal avatars stationed there.
For us to compete for the Celestial Jade Marrow probably won't be easy."
Her concerns were not without reason.
Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng couldn't be discovered by those Demon Immortal avatars, otherwise they would likely be captured.
This ti, the Celestial Jade Marrow could only rely on her, Wang Shouyi, and Senior Chen.
Although Senior Chen seed to be of the sa kind as Senior Zhang and Senior Gu.
Since he hadn't been targeted by the Celestial God Clan, he probably wasn't the variable?
Hua Jin didn't dare be certain.
But compared to Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng.
Chen Huaian's situation was relatively safer.
"No matter." Zhang Yibai, however, appeared fully confident, the corners of his mouth lifting as he stroked his beard. "Hua Jin the True One, can you predict the location where the Celestial Jade Marrow will be born?"
"This... naturally no problem." Hua Jin nodded.
After so many cycles of reincarnation, predicting Celestial Jade Marrow didn't just rely on divination abilities. Combined with her experience, she could basically narrow down the Celestial Jade Marrow's birth location to within a five hundred ter radius.
A five hundred ter radius—such a small area was precise enough for cultivators.
"No problem is good." Zhang Yibai said casually. "First draw the location for this old man."
"Draw the location? Senior, what are you planning to..."
Hua Jin the True One was slightly stunned, not understanding what Zhang Yibai intended to do.
"Set up formations!"
Zhang Yibai narrowed his eyes, a sharp gleam flashing in their depths as he uttered two concise words.
