History's Strongest Senior Brother c1-1474

  However, he also believed that the people like Earthly Sovereign were also capable of gaining profits for the World beyond Worlds during this process.

  As a result, both parties took precautions against each other while cooperating with each other at the same time. There never lacked of prying or spying along the way.

  For thousands of years, even a long epic was not able to write down all the things that had happened in the dark.

  'But, what has happened in the Immortal Court that even Senior apprentice-uncle Yue and Earthly Sovereign are entangled there?' Yan Zhaoge pondered.

  After all, Earthly Sovereign and Sword Sovereign never belonged to the Immortal Court.

  So maybe they had taken the initiative to offer their help, but the Immortal Court wouldn't force them to stay and deal with the chaos.

  "Unless..." Yan Zhaoge stroked his chin, saying, "The chaos wasn't started by the blessed lands of the Buddhism, but was related to the Three Clear lineage.

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1199: The Essential Daoism Sect, the Broad Creed Mountain

  If it was related to the Three Clear lineage, then Earthly Sovereign and Sword Sovereign would have no excuse for avoiding their duties to help. Otherwise others would a.s.sume them as people who took pleasure in other people's misfortune.

  And that was not something the people of the World beyond Worlds would do.

  Although Sword Sovereign may be reluctant to help. However, under certain circ.u.mstances, he had to use different ways to deal with different situations. And now it seemed that he was in a kind of situation where he couldn't get away.

  The same thing might also happen to Earthly Sovereign.

  w.a.n.g Zhengcheng's death could give Earthly Sovereign a proper excuse to come back to the World beyond Worlds. And the Immortal Court couldn't find fault in that.

  Even so, Earthly Sovereign chose to lay the things with w.a.n.g Zhengcheng and the Broad Creed Mountain aside and stay in the outer s.p.a.ce.

  Thus it could be seen that something serious must have happened.

  Maybe it was not something critical, but definitely troublesome.

  Since Yan Zhaoge had no idea what was happening in the Immortal Court, he couldn't make any more guesses.

  However, it was still good news that Earthly Sovereign couldn't get back to the World beyond Worlds for the moment.

  That was an unexpectedly surprise.

  Now that Concealed Sovereign had been stuck in the Restful Immortal Valley because of Astro Sovereign, Yan Zhaoge and the Broad Creed Mountain could do lots of things without restrictions.

  Also, they got plenty of time to make plans.

  Earthly Sovereign might come back with a new ident.i.ty as the Heaven's Lord Jiang. That was a rather awful news.

  Although the pressure on the Broad Creed Mountain seemed to be reduced a lot, it didn't mean the people there could live at ease.

  A True Immortal would feel like being reborn when he or she pa.s.sed the Pure Profound Tribulation and entered the Profound Immortal Realm

  The same thing also happened when a Profound Immortal pa.s.sed the Profound Origin Tribulation and entered the Origin Immortal Realm where five qis toward its origin.

  Although it was not a completely certain thing that Earthly Sovereign would pa.s.s the Profound Origin Tribulation in a short period of time, the possibility still couldn't be ignored, like Astro Sovereign had said.

  Yan Zhaoge couldn't reveal too many things about the Immortal Court to w.a.n.g Pu.

  w.a.n.g Pu also sensed that vaguely. However, as a steady man, w.a.n.g Pu was never too curious about lots of things.

  “I sent the letter to my master before Astro Sovereign came back. So he didn't know about what happened to Astro Sovereign.” w.a.n.g Pu added, “After Astro Sovereign had come back, I tried to contact my master again and told him that news. However, I haven't got a letter in reply.”

  “His majesty Astro Sovereign might stay in the Restful Immortal Valley for a long time to block the door.” Yan Zhaoge told w.a.n.g Pu what had happened in the Restful Immortal Valley in brief.

  He also mentioned about some of Concealed Sovereign's deeds.

  w.a.n.g Pu was shocked by what he had heard. It took him a long time to come back to his sense. He stammered, “This is… this…”

  Then he gave out a wry smile and continued, “I have thought that the reason why my master had told me to keep an eye on what happened in the Restful Immortal Valley was only because Concealed Sovereign always supported Earthly Sovereign.”

  “Now I know that my master was trying to tell me something else.”

  Although Sword Sovereign might not have found some concrete clues like Astro Sovereign had, he wouldn't see Concealed Sovereign as a man who was willing to live a simple life like others did.

  “If Astro Sovereign hasn't come back, we should pay attention to the Restful Immortal Valley indeed.” Yan Zhaoge said that with a smile on his face, “Though I have doubted that Concealed Sovereign was not a simple person and might have done something secretly, I still never realized that he had actually done so many things.”

  “It's like what the old saying goes, a biting dog…”

  Before Yan Zhaoge could finish his sentence, he saw w.a.n.g Pu looking at him helplessly and saying, “Junior apprentice-brother Yan…”

  Yan Zhaoge shrugged and changed the subject, “Anyway, we are a lot more relaxed than before since Astro Sovereign was back. But we still cannot put the weapons back in the a.r.s.enal.”

  With the expression on Yan Zhaoge's face turning serious, he said, “We should pay more attention to what will happen next.”

  After bidding farewell to w.a.n.g Pu, Yan Zhaoge left the Jade Capital Crag and the Kunlun Mountain, then he headed to the Eastern Vast Heaven Territory.

  In the middle of his journey, he got through the Central Jun Heaven Territory and pa.s.sed the Yuanzhou City on the Muye plain. So he decided to stop at the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion.

  Now the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion had already restored its property of the old days.

  Astro Sovereign's return and staying in the Broad Creed Mountain had brought thriving business to the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion.

  And lately, there was a rumor claiming that Astro Sovereign had come to the Kunlun Mountain and frozen the Restful Immortal Valley where Concealed Sovereign lived.

  That strong posture also gave people confidence to the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion.

  Of course, there were still a few people who felt anxious.

  Astro Sovereign's actions had shown that he would not remain neutral anymore. Instead, he had made it quite clear that he would be in favor of the Broad Creed Mountain.

  Therefore, the conflicts in the World beyond Worlds might be intensified.

  However, it was still uncertain if the situation would turn into a war among the four Sovereigns in 2v2 or the division of the whole World beyond Worlds.

  It had been peaceful in the World beyond Worlds for a long time. And people tended to let things stay that way.

  Anyhow, since the two parties were gradually well-matched in strength, they should be more cautious when they wanted to declare war. That's how the anxious people comforted themselves.

  Yan Zhaoge tried to sense those people's thoughts. And he believed his guess was pretty close.

  Without speaking too much, he started off to the Eastern Vast Heaven Territory again after inspecting the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion

  At present, everything in the Eastern Vast Heaven Territory had changed.

  Now the most intimidating people on the street were not the ones who wore a green rope with nine branches of the ancient tree on the sleeves.

  Instead, people are more afraid of the ones in white ropes and blue coats.

  And if the person in a white rope and a blue coat happened to have black edges on the coat, he would be treated more seriously.

  The Remote Cloud Mountain's Clear Light Locale was a yesterday's stor
y.

  The Broad Creed Mountain was the one which dominated the Eastern Vast Heaven Territory now.

  Moreover, even in the places out of the Eastern Vast Heaven Territory, no one dared to look down upon the disciples of the Broad Creed Mountain anymore.

  Yan Zhaoge headed all the way to the east and pa.s.sed the old site of the Remote Cloud Mountain's Clear Light Locale.

  However, the Clear Light Locale didn't exist anymore.

  As far as Yan Zhaoge knew, the people in the Broad Creed Mountain hadn't slaughtered everyone in the Clear Light Locale. And Yan Di had only killed the people who had hunted Xue Chuqing.

  Also, the Broad Creed Mountain had found another place to settle down instead of occupying the Remote Cloud Mountain.

  Nevertheless, Yan Di had moved part of the spiritual qis of the earth veins away from the Eastern Vast Heaven Territory with his infinity power.

  As a result, the Remote Cloud Mountain had no longer been the place where the spiritual qis were most abundant.

  Because most of the spiritual qis had flowed to the new gate of the Broad Creed Mountain along the veins of the earth.

  Thus, the Clear Light Locale had fell into decay with each pa.s.sing day.

  Being too shameful to stay in the Eastern Vast Heaven Territory, the rest of the people of the Clear Light Locale had all moved to another place.

  Though the Remote Cloud Mountain was not as outstanding as before, it was still a place endowed with the fine spirits.

  But there was no other party taking occupation of this place. So as strange as it might look, the Remote Cloud Mountain was left unused.

  Yan Zhaoge didn't stay in the Remote Cloud Mountain. He kept going until he reached the east of the Royal Reed Sea.

  And as he arrived at the seaside and overlooked, he saw a delicately beautiful mountain.

  That was the essential Daoism sect, the Broad Creed Mountain!

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1200: Rebuild the Broad Creed Mountain

  Like the Southeastern Yang Heaven Territory which situated on the Royal Reed Sea, now the Broad Creed Mountain was also on the sea as if it was an island.

  When looking from a distant place, Yan Zhaoge could see rays of light enveloping the Broad Creed Mountain and white smokes rising from all around.

  Having gone across the sea, Yan Zhaoge arrived at the gate. The first thing he did was looking above.

  There were also rays of indistinct flowing light covering the sky above the Broad Creed Mountain and spreading to the surrounding area.

  That was the protecting ritual of the Broad Creed Mountain. Now it hadn't been stimulated to its full power, so normal people wouldn't notice its capability.

  However, when enemies came to attack, the ritual would play its role and let anyone who tried to break in get serious injured.

  If someone thought he could sneak into the mountain while the ritual hadn't exerted its full strength, he would definitely be taught a good lesson.

  Of course, if the enemy was too powerful, the situation would be different. However nowadays only the people who were truly powerful would be able to defeat the protecting ritual of the Broad Creed Mountain.

  And there were actually a few people in the World beyond Worlds who were capable of doing that.

  But since Yan Di was staying in the Broad Creed Mountain now, he would definitely cope with the emergency.

  “Huh, something has changed.” Yan Zhaoge pondered while he was looking above, “It must from my mother's work.”

  The first time the Broad Creed Mountain tried to establish itself in the World beyond Worlds, the gate of the mountain had been rebuilt. And Yan Zhaoge had already made some improvements of the protecting ritual.

  Under the condition at that time, Yan Zhaoge had already made the ritual reach its perfection.

  Even those experts who had already pushed the door to the immortality open wouldn't have done better than Yan Zhaoge due to the restriction of the local condition.

  This time the Broad Creed Mountain had arrived at the Eastern Vast Heaven Territory and rebuilt the mountain gate. Thus the ritual which had been improved by Yan Zhaoge had also been moved here.

  As sensitive as he was, Yan Zhaoge had already found out quickly that the ritual had been improved again on the basis of the location.

  After all, the geographic condition of the Broad Creed Mountain now was much better than Spirit Inheritance Region of the Royal Reed Sea.

  However, to make further improvements on the modified ritual needed really high attainments.

  At present, the only person of all the experts in the Martial Saint realm in the World beyond Worlds including the exalts whose ritual forming ability was at the same level with Yan Zhaoge who was able to do that was only Xue Chuqing, besides Upper Exalt whose power was too unpredictable.

  It could be concluded by looking at Xiao Ai's extraordinary achievements in this aspect.

  Yan Zhaoge had already reached a higher cultivation realm when compared to his mother. However, the ritual Xue Chuqing had formed could still rival the ones Yan Zhaoge had formed.

  When the Broad Creed Mountain had moved and the protecting ritual had to be rebuilt, Xue Chuqing had put a lot of efforts in it.

  “Young Master, you are back.” Ah Hu who had already learned that Yan Zhaoge was back came out to greet his young Master.

  Yan Zhaoge laughed and said, “I haven't seen Xiao Ai in the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion. Did she run back secretly?”

  Ah Hu smirked and said, “Madam finally returned. So Xiao Ai came back more often than before. Madam did have scolded her about that. However, Master said that it was all right for Xiao Ai to visit Madam as long as the affairs in the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion were not affected.”

  “Little girl…” Yan Zhaoge couldn't help laughing and shaking his head.

  As he arrived at his parents' place, he saw Xiao Ai trying to sneaking out covertly.

  “Xiao Ai.” Yan Zhaoge shouted.

  “… I'm here!” Having stood at attention at once, Xiao Ai turned around stiffly with a beaming smile on her face, “Young Master, it's been a long time I haven't seen you. You are even more charming than before.”

  “! Definitely !”

  Yan Zhaoge and Xue Chuqing both looked at Xiao Ai with annoyed but also amused look on their faces.

  Meanwhile, Xiao Ai looked up and down with her eyes darting all around, being afraid to look into Yan Zhaoge's eyes.

  “I'm not blaming you.” Yan Zhaoge who found her funny and annoying said, “Why do you seem so guilty?”

  Hearing his words, Xiao Ai laughed shyly. Then Yan Zhaoge measured her with his eyes, saying, “But I have to say, you are getting lazier and lazier lately. Now what, you are learning from Panpan now?”

  Panpan, who was in the arms of Xue Chuqing suddenly turned over while blinking her eyes innocently.

  After the chatting and laughing, Yan Zhaoge put on a serious look and said, “I have already seen Astro Sovereign. We had an in-depth discussion about the situation of the World beyond Worlds now.”

  “I'm planning to hit the road again.” Yan Zhaoge nodded and said, “According to Astro Sovereign's instruction, I should look for Exalted Fire Luminary… and Exalted Wood Luminary.”

  After saying that, he looked to Xue Chuqing. The latter remained a steady look on her face and nodded, “Great Grand Master secluded herself after being badly injured. Grand Master also knows about that. However, no one has ever heard from Great Grand Master ever since then.”

  “It would be a huge pleasure for us if she's still alive. But if… that is just human nature.”

  Yan Zhaoge said, “We don't need to be too pessimistic. After all, everything is not certain yet. At least we should find Exalted Fire Luminary first. If Astro Sovereign was telling the truth, then Exalted Fire Luminary must have been looking for Exalted Wood Luminary over these years. So he should have more clues than us.”

  “Since you got the hints from Astro Soverei
gn, we will do things as he told.” Xue Chuqing nodded while saying, “I'll leave my Area Lat.i.tude Formation aside for the moment.”

  “Has Astro Sovereign seen Jun'er and sister-in-law Yuzhen?” Yan Zhaoge asked.

  Yan Di took a deep breath and answered, “According to what Astro Sovereign has said, two big demons with high cultivation were reborn again after they had been destroyed. And they wanted to incarnate in Jun'er and his mother's body in order to return to this world.”

  “At the moment, we couldn't completely kill those big demons' thoughts. Because we are not quite ready to slay them.”

  Having paused for a second, Yan Di said slowly, “The great revival always comes after the great disaster. When it is the most dangerous, it also offers us the biggest opportunity.”

  “Sure enough…” Yan Zhaoge murmured that with his head raised gently.

  Xue Chuqing let out a slight sign.

  She had never met s.h.i.+ Jun and his mother before.

  However, she had made contacts with s.h.i.+ Tie and s.h.i.+ Songtao.

  At that time, s.h.i.+ Songtao, who had still been a teenager, had attended her wedding with Yan Di as a greeter boy.

  “I'll check on Jun'er and his mother later.” As Yan Zhaoge came back to his sense, he changed to another subject and talked about what he had seen in the Restful Immortal Valley.

  Yan Di and Xue Chuqing looked at each other in speechless astonishment when they heard this story for the first time.

  “Though I have thought that Concealed Sovereign was a complicated person. But your story still shocked me.” Xue Chuqing came back to earth and said that with a wry smile.

  Yan Di frowned and said, “Now I really doubt that he was behind a lot of things.”

  “Yeah.” Yan Zhaoge shrugged his shoulders.

  Xue Chuqing thought for a while and reminded Yan Zhaoge, “Maybe it was a strategy sowing discord. But now we really need to reconsider Brocade Emperor's stand.”

  “No matter he was in black or in white.”

  Actually, Brocade Emperor in white seemed more impulsive than the one in black.

  But if Concealed Sovereign had meant for what he had been saying, then he must have a method to let Brocade Emperor in white who was on the feeling side become a profound immortal.
