The outside world still believed he was staying at the new Tianxuan Mountain, so they naturally didn’t dare to provoke a True Martial Realm power lightly. Tianxuan Mountain also had ample time to develop and settle.

Wait a few decades or a hundred years, and his strength probably would have advanced to the Divine Yuan Realm. At that time, he could just make an appearance at Tianxuan Mountain.

“Many thanks, senior.”

“We at Tianxuan Mountain will never forget the great kindness and great virtue of the senior.”

Gongsun Yun and the three founding ancestral masters were overjoyed. They immediately spoke, their faces full of excitement.

With the escort of this powerful True Martial Realm figure, they would be able to safely reach their destination, and they would have enough time to develop. A middle-phase True Martial Realm personally vowing to protect them for a century was like a golden signboard, Tianxuan Mountain’s lifesaver.

Soon, Tianxuan Mountain made some brief arrangements and, under the protection of Han Li, set out anew towards their destination.

In recent days, Gongsun Yun and the others had already chosen a new place for Tianxuan Mountain; they intended to go to the territory of the Qitian Teaching.

To the north of the Daqian Empire was the Da Jing Empire, and to the northwest of the Da Jing Empire was the Ancient Empire, while to the northeast was the Qitian Teaching.

The Qitian Teaching’s ruling area was a quarter larger than the Daqian Empire’s. Like the Yinyang Sect, which was adjacent to the Devil Region, the Qitian Teaching was next to the Dao Domain, a chess piece of the Dao Sect in the Xuan Domain.

Tianxuan Mountain is considered a branch of the Taixuan Clan Dao Sect, so moving into the scope of the Qitian Teaching to develop is most appropriate. It would also distance them from the conflicts of the Daqian Empire, allowing for better growth. Additionally, it brought them much closer to the Dao Domain, which might even enable them to establish contact with the Tai Xuan Sect.

The three founding ancestral masters had no intention of returning to the Tai Xuan Sect. They couldn’t cultivate to the True Martial Realm there, so they planned to spend the rest of their days at Tianxuan Mountain, strengthening it.

Tianxuan Mountain, boasting four Myriad Phenomena Realm Great Grandmasters, would be able to have a good development within the Qitian Teaching’s territory, essentially being equivalent to the first power under the Qitian Teaching.

Since the Qitian Teaching was a branch of the Dao Sect, it showed the least rejection towards Tianxuan Mountain. Tianxuan Mountain was also no threat to the Qitian Teaching’s status, after all, Han Li would not stay on Tianxuan Mountain forever.

The Heavenly Sky Plural Ship was incredibly fast, on par with the middle-phase True Martial Realm, and continued on its way towards the Qitian Teaching. As it passed through Yuanzhou, Han Li vanished for a moment to communicate with Lu Tianxiang and the other lovely wives and concubines at Chengsheng Mountain, then he returned to the Heavenly Sky Plural Ship.

Leizhou was located at the southernmost part of the Daqian Empire; the Heavenly Sky Plural Ship needed to traverse the entire Daqian Empire, then the Da Jing Empire before entering the Qitian Teaching territory—an incredibly distant journey, exceeding twenty million miles.

And to reach the destination chosen by Gongsun Yun, they still had to advance another six million miles after entering the Qitian Teaching territory, a total distance of twenty-six million miles.

The Heavenly Sky Plural Ship’s extreme speed was on par with the fifth heaven of the True Martial Realm, reaching three hundred and fifty thousand miles in a single breath. However, this required consuming a vast amount of Spirit Stones, burning one million lower-grade Spirit Stones in a breath’s time.

At this rate, the Heavenly Sky Plural Ship would need at most seventy-five breaths, requiring seventy-five million lower-grade Spirit Stones. Tianxuan Mountain naturally didn’t have so many Spirit Stones.

Over the years, Tianxuan Mountain had accumulated less than thirty million lower-grade Spirit Stones, which was not enough to support the Heavenly Sky Plural Ship for seventy-five breaths of flight, and Han Li didn’t need so long either.

According to the initial plan of Gongsun Yun and the others, it would suffice to maintain a speed equivalent to the regular Myriad Phenomena Realm. If they encountered an attack by the True Martial Realm, they would accelerate.

Moreover, they could also use their own Gang Yuan to substitute for the consumption of Spirit Stones, thereby significantly reducing the need for Spirit Stones.

Han Li naturally didn’t want to waste too much time, so he took action himself, channeling his own True Yuan into it, propelling the Heavenly Sky Plural Ship forward.

His True Yuan reserves were equivalent to the second heaven of the True Martial Realm. He only maintained the speed of the first heaven of the True Martial Realm for the Heavenly Sky Plural Ship’s flight, partly to avoid detection, and partly to conserve True Yuan for any possible attacks.

However, the journey was smooth. They encountered no attacks within the Daqian Empire, the Da Jing Empire, or upon entering the territory of the Qitian Teaching, as nobody wished to provoke a powerful True Martial Realm Emperor Wu.

After Han Li and the others from Tianxuan Mountain left Leizhou on the Heavenly Sky Plural Ship, the strong onlookers disseminated the information of the battle at Leizhou, which quickly became known to all major powers.

Daqian Empire, Capital City.

Chu Dingqian sat cross-legged in a large hall of the Imperial Palace, feeling somewhat mentally and physically exhausted. He wanted to quit and find another place to plant the Devil Fetus, to possess and be reborn.

But, in doing so, his true body had to be well concealed after implanting the Devil Fetus; if it were accidentally discovered, all his efforts would be in vain.

And yet, he couldn’t bear to part with the Daqian Empire, an empire he had founded, which had flourished for three thousand years, and to which he had devoted so much of his hard work.

Chu Dingqian was waiting. Once the armies of Da Qian from all four directions retreated back to the Mid Six Province, he secretly sought help from some True Martial Realm Emperor Wu, willing to pay a great price if they were willing to station themselves in Da Qian.

If there were no results within two years, Chu Dingqian would give up, even if he couldn’t bear to leave the Qian Dynasty behind, he would have to go, find a safe place, and seek a Cultivator with potential to implant the Devil Fetus Possession.

The battle in the True Martial Realm in Leizhou made quite a stir, and with Chu Dingqian’s strength, even from far away in Yuanzhou, he could barely sense it, but he didn’t dare to go for fear of being ambushed.

When the great battle ended and specific intelligence arrived, Chu Dingqian immediate regretted his inaction, sighing and lamenting that he should have rushed over.

Against all odds, a powerful True Martial Realm fighter had emerged in Da Qian, who, with a few strikes, had severely injured Dugu Bing of the Yinyang Sect. This strength was at least equivalent to the Fifth Heaven of the True Martial Realm, not inferior to his own.

If he had rushed over, perhaps together they could have killed Dugu Bing, or at the very least cultivated a relationship with that refined True Martial Realm Emperor Wu.

Just when Da Qian needed the combat ability of the True Martial Realm, that Emperor Wu appeared. It was simply too perfect, but regretfully, he had missed the opportunity.

“Next time, if there is a next time, I will definitely rush over to see it as soon as possible,” Chu Dingqian said softly to himself.

He felt extremely regretful in his heart; that powerful True Martial Realm Emperor Wu was escorting Tianxuan Mountain to the Qitian Teaching territory, reportedly to protect the sect for a hundred years.

Chu Dingqian was envious. How could little Tianxuan Mountain be so lucky? It would have been wonderful if that True Martial Realm Emperor Wu were willing to protect Da Qian for a hundred years.

But all those opportunities were missed.

In the Da Jing Imperial Palace, Capital City.

When Emperor Da Jing and another True Martial Realm ancestor received the intelligence, they immediately thought of the True Martial Realm who had passed through the Da Jing Empire before.

They marveled at the formidable combat ability of this True Martial Realm and lamented the missed opportunity.

The background of this True Martial Realm was unknown, but he seemed to highly value loyalty and honor. The Founding Ancestral Master of Tianxuan Mountain had shown him kindness a thousand years ago, and even after a millennium, he came back to repay it, saving Tianxuan Mountain from peril.

Such a True Martial Realm was most suitable for alliance. If they could have won him over to the Da Jing Empire, the empire’s foundation would have immediately surged, bolstering their confidence to claim more territory from the central areas of the Qian Dynasty’s domain.

Atop Emperor Wu’s City,

Donning black and yellow battle garb, the tall and upright middle-aged man frowned slightly upon receiving this intelligence.

How had a True Martial Realm Emperor Wu of such great strength suddenly appeared in the Xuan Domain?

The strength of this True Martial Realm Emperor Wu was not much less than his own. Who was he, after all?

After pondering for a while, the middle-aged man could not guess the identity of the True Martial Realm. Though there were many in the Qianyuan Divine Province, he was familiar with almost all the renowned and named ones, but none of them used such sword techniques.

The Da Liang Empire, Kurong Sect, Qitian Teaching, Ancient Empire, and even the Yinyang Sect and other powers all received this intelligence. After learning the details of the battle in Leizhou, they all furrowed their brows, unable to deduce the origin of this person.

Elsewhere, within the Qitian Teaching territory, at the new gate of Tianxuan Mountain.

After speaking to Gongsun Yun and the others, Han Li was ready to take his leave; he had no intention of truly staying there for a hundred years.

Gongsun Yun and the others were astonished. It turned out that the powerful True Martial Realm’s promise to stay for a hundred years was just talk. But then again, they thought, how could their senior truly stay at Tianxuan Mountain for a hundred years?

This senior had shown great kindness to Tianxuan Mountain. As for his claims of being indebted to the Founding Ancestral Master, that was just what the senior had said, and whether it was true or not, they themselves did not know.

Besides, the outside world was unaware that this senior had quietly left. As long as no one came probing, it was as if Tianxuan Mountain had a True Martial Realm powerhouse stationed there.

Gongsun Yun and the others naturally wouldn’t say anything; they were more than grateful.

Just then, Gongsun Yue spoke up: “Senior, I wish to become your disciple and follow you in cultivation.”
