Chapter 601 - 27: Taixu Token, Undying Jade

Fang Cheng had a realization. "I’ve heard quite a few rumors in Yuhua Tower these past few days. So you’re the Saintess of the Beiming Immortal Race, the legendary Spirit Immortal’s daughter."

He then added, "I am from the Red Profound Realm, which is indeed extremely far from this realm. This is merely one of my incarnations. You may call me Ascendant Pu Hua."

"The Red Profound Realm..." Beiming Cang Xue frowned, pondering for a moment. After confirming she had never heard of this World Heaven, she said, "I previously thought that this Spiritual Mechanism Body was your true self, Senior... It seems you must be the Realm Master of the Red Profound Realm."

Fang Cheng was taken aback and chuckled, hearing the term "Realm Master" for the first time.

However, if he had to say, the Realm Master of this world was likely the Palace Master of the Beiming Immortal Palace.

He shook his head and smiled. "Not at all. The Realm Master of my World Heaven is a Tier Six Demon Fiend."

Beiming Cang Xue was startled. The look of astonishment on her fair, beautiful face was surprisingly captivating.

Fang Cheng continued, "Since you are the Saintess of the Beiming Immortal Race, a clan of such immense power, why must you rely on the help of an outsider?"

Beiming Cang Xue replied helplessly, "The title of Saintess is nothing more than a gimmick. After my father’s incarnation returned to the Upper Realm, I instead became an outcast. Only my Seventh Uncle still treats me well and is willing to truly help me."

This was tantamount to admitting that she was indeed the blood descendant of the Spirit Immortal Incarnation in Beiming Heaven.

Fang Cheng had met a Spirit Immortal Incarnation before. Logically, such a being shouldn’t leave their bloodline behind in a Lower Realm. It would only create unnecessary troubles for their descendants’ ascension. ’I wonder if Beiming Cang Xue’s father had a sudden whim and ended up with a daughter...’

However, since this woman was a descendant of a Spirit Immortal Incarnation and her talent was so outstanding, her true strength was likely on par with the top few on the Ascension to Immortality List of Qianyu Heaven back in the day.

Since both parties had now introduced themselves frankly, Fang Cheng didn’t say any more and made his decision. "I’ll take the job."

A dazzling smile bloomed on Beiming Cang Xue’s face. She and Fang Cheng immediately settled on a time and place, preparing to depart for the Lingkong Celestial Ruins together when the time came.

After the two exchanged Jade Talisman Tokens for communication, they resumed their casual conversation.

Fang Cheng was also quite curious about the Lingkong Celestial Ruins. Especially since he was currently in an incarnation, it was the perfect time to explore the various Secret Realms and dangerous lands within the Outer Void.

Beiming Cang Xue was very interested in the Mechanical Spirit Dao. As the two chatted and laughed, half a day passed without them realizing it.

「Celestial Snow Plateau.」

Silver snow-capped mountains rose high from the earth like coiling dragons. The land was covered by ten-thousand-year-old glaciers, a vast expanse of white.

Within a few days, the Beiming Immortal Palace had located the Grotto Heaven Secret Realm hidden in the sky.

The Immortal Palace’s Grand Elder and Second Elder jointly presented a formal visiting request and were subsequently led into the Secret Realm by Xia Yue.

The Third Elder, Ascendant Tianyu, remained high in the sky, sitting cross-legged on a Cloud Couch, waiting quietly.

A few other Tribulation Realm Cultivators, all of them Elders of the Immortal Palace, were around him.

In less than half a day, the two Elders from the Immortal Palace walked out of the Grotto Heaven and returned to the sky, shaking their heads and sighing.

Ascendant Tianyu’s usual gentle and refined demeanor was gone. His eyes were now like an eagle’s, his gaze sharp, and his killing intent was palpable.

He said coolly, "As per the Palace Master’s arrangements, I will be taking command of the situation here."

The Grand Elder and Second Elder nodded silently. The expressions of the other few Elders also grew solemn.

Ascendant Tianyu said in a deep voice, "Everyone, summon our people. We will first join forces to lay down the Five Elements Divine Light Destruction Array."

The Elders acknowledged the order. They then each sent out either a Flying Sword Communication or a Spirit Talisman voice transmission, summoning the Tribulation Realm Cultivators who were already waiting ten thousand li away.

The Beiming Immortal Palace had eleven Elders, each with their own cloisters for teaching Disciples. Among all the Elder Disciples, three had broken through to the Tribulation Realm.

Furthermore, there were many Tribulation Realm Cultivators from the other major sects and clans of the Jade Flower Realm who had pledged allegiance to these Elders, becoming Guests of the Immortal Palace.

Each Elder had two or three such Tribulation Realm Guests under their command.

「At that moment.」

Following Ascendant Tianyu’s order, in less than a moment, twenty-eight brilliant streaks of Escape Light flashed across the horizon, arriving nearby in utter silence.

Adding the eleven Elders of the Immortal Palace, a total of thirty-nine Tribulation Realm Great Powers appeared around the Grotto Heaven Secret Realm.

With the eleven Immortal Palace Elders as the core, they each brought out Array Flags, Array Discs, and Five Elements Celestial and Earthly Spiritual Objects, quickly laying down a formidable and profound Grand Array.

The five major array cores surrounded the Grotto Heaven Secret Realm, each anchored by a Celestial and Earthly Spiritual Object: a ball of brilliant white Geng Metal Qi, a towering ancient tree rooted in the void, a vast, flowing river of azure water, a crimson fireball like a blazing sun, and a majestic, massive mountain.

These five Celestial and Earthly Spiritual Objects were all Tier Five Top Grade, their Spiritual Qi immense. Such items were rarely seen even in the shops on the upper three floors of Yuhua Tower.

Once the Array was formed, the thirty-nine Tribulation Realm Great Powers channeled their Magical Power in unison. Instantly, an endless torrent of five-colored wondrous light emerged from the void.

This wondrous light was exquisitely beautiful, yet it radiated an extremely dangerous aura of destruction.

Wherever the five-colored wondrous light passed, the void trembled. A towering, magnificent, and exquisite Cyan Jade Gate was revealed, only to be instantly swept over by the light.

The Cyan Jade Gate was immediately annihilated.

The five-colored wondrous light flooded into the Grotto Heaven Secret Realm. Wherever it went, the floating clouds and lake water within the Grotto Heaven were all annihilated, turning into a ball of chaos.

In the blink of an eye, the five-colored wondrous light surged to the center of the Grotto Heaven, where it was blocked by a layer of soft spiritual light.

This layer of spiritual light was shaped like an inverted jade bowl. Inside was a solitary reef, and from a crevice in the rock grew an incredibly lush peach tree.

A cold, clear, and pleasant voice rang out, "Have you all come here seeking death?"
