Chapter 967: Chapter 418: The Narrow Path to Immortality_2

Currently, Yunluo Immortal Venerable is still apprehensive about the Heavenly Court and Shangguan Xiaoxiao. When he eventually uncovers the truth and exposes the facade of the Longevity Seeker, Li An will have no room left to maneuver.

Moreover, the reincarnations of Evergreen Immortal Venerable are constantly experiencing life and death. This person’s talent is astonishing. Who knows when he might comprehend the Dao of life and death?

Once he masters the true balance of life and death, Li An’s greatest advantage will cease to exist!

Therefore, there’s a need to hurry!

Before Yunluo Immortal Venerable sees through the truth, before Evergreen Immortal Venerable controls life and death, once that time comes, he won’t even have a fifty percent chance. The outcome will only be one.

Death!

Li An paused, starting to meticulously simulate the details of this deadly scheme, analyzing it repeatedly.

He stayed awake tirelessly, enduring for three months, simulating countless times in his cave abode before finally coming out.

"Thus it shall be!"

With firm determination in his eyes, after repeated research and contemplation, he felt confident that the success rate could reach sixty to seventy percent.

Then, he headed to an Immortal City in the Tenth Heaven Domain—Primordial Yang Immortal City.

This place was a crucial stronghold in the Tenth Heaven Domain’s defenses, commanded by Li Nianxue, the famed butcher of Dao Sect.

In reality, Primordial Yang Immortal City was not at the forefront; according to previous arrangements, Li Nianxue usually charged into the most dangerous places. Yet now she was slightly moved toward the rear, and Li An could see that An Li and Li Nianxue arranged this likely to facilitate contacting Li An.

After all, they couldn’t contact Li An. They could only let Li An contact them, and Li An only trusted Li Nianxue, so it was very important to have Li Nianxue in a relatively stable position.

Li An easily infiltrated the Immortal City. After a few days of investigation, he learned that Li Nianxue would go to cultivate on East Mountain every few days, a place where others were not allowed to approach.

Li An quietly arrived, left a letter on East Mountain, then left, watching secretly to ensure no one entered or exited East Mountain before Li Nianxue arrived.

A few days later, Li Nianxue went up the mountain alone and instructed other experts to guard after descending, then left.

Knowing she received the information, Li An stayed in the Immortal City, waiting.

...

Soon after.

Li Nianxue returned to the Heavenly Court. Like last time, she didn’t report but directly entered the Celestial Dao Hall to wait.

Soon after, An Li entered, and upon seeing Li Nianxue, his face slightly excited, he said, "Has Li Supreme sent new information again?"

Li Nianxue nodded and said, "I stayed in Primordial Yang Immortal City for two years and purposely left East Mountain vacant to facilitate Supreme’s message transmission. At last, I waited."

An Li asked, "This time, what does the Supreme require of us?"

Li Nianxue said, "First, he has discovered Shangguan Shengxian’s whereabouts. This person has already controlled the main reincarnation of Evergreen Immortal Venerable. The affair at the Cyan Ridge Mountain was orchestrated by her. Given time, she might even replace Evergreen Immortal Venerable!"

Her tone was heavy, and An Li instantly became serious as well.

In the past, to deal with the Master of Hongbo, An Li had cooperated with Shangguan Shengxian, knowing all too well how terrifying this woman was.

According to Xiao Xiao’s description, even the Supreme Li An often narrowly escaped death from her hands many times. It could be said that this person is the lifelong adversary of Supreme Li An!

She actually set her sights on the reincarnation of Evergreen Immortal Venerable...

This information is incredibly important!

He then asked, "Does the Supreme have any strategy concerning this?"

"According to the Supreme, this woman must be executed. However, her current cultivation is extremely high. We must make thorough preparations and wait for the Supreme’s command to act... Moreover, it’s best to have Supreme Shangguan oversee, as she knows Shangguan Shengxian best!"

An Li nodded, "It should be so. I will make arrangements."

"The second matter, the Supreme needs a batch of Daluo Level Array materials and an immense amount of Top Grade Immortal Crystals, the more the better, to the utmost capability. As for their use, he didn’t say..."

An Li pondered slightly and said, "Collecting Immortal Crystals is not too difficult, but back then, for establishing the Tenth Heaven Domain’s defenses, all major forces bled heavily. Now, trying to gather Daluo Law Jade and other items is probably not easy."

"Nonetheless, I will do it."

Li Nianxue also nodded, "Just these two matters."

"By the way, the Supreme also had one more instruction. He said, if Supreme Shangguan encounters Yunluo Immortal Venerable and cannot match him, don’t force it. Dissipating all of the Longevity White Mist and staying alive is the utmost priority."

An Li’s heart moved slightly. From this instruction, he keenly perceived that Supreme Li An should know that Shangguan Xiaoxiao couldn’t withstand Yunluo Immortal Venerable?

In that case, back when the Heavenly Court underwent great changes, the phantom that suddenly appeared in Shangguan Xiaoxiao’s Daluo World, could it have something to do with Supreme Li An?

Initially, he thought it was a backup system left by Shangguan Xiaoxiao, but now thinking in detail, it seemed that Supreme Shangguan was unaware of it!

He believed it strongly related to Li An, and his heart grew more complicated. Supreme Li An has indeed been helping Dao Sect all along!

If it weren’t for Li An’s continual secret assistance, who knows how many life-and-death crises the Heavenly Court would have encountered.

"The world only knows my divine schemes, yet they do not know that it is a remarkable person assisting in secret..."

He felt emotional, but when he looked up at Li Nianxue, he felt quite helpless:

"Rely on me to persuade Supreme Shangguan, I’m afraid it’s difficult..."

Shangguan Xiaoxiao has long sought death. Now she remains in seclusion, only living due to the responsibility shouldered, to protect the lives of all beings under heaven.
