“After all the preparations in the Roving Jade Heavens is completed, the Astro Sovereign and the others would cause a commotion to distract our enemies.”
All the Prime Clear experts present nodded in agreement.
Those that couldn’t find the Pill Hall were all staring closely at the World beyond Worlds and the Roving Jade Heavens, staring closely at the Dao universe. They were hoping to locate Yan Zhaoge and the others based on the tracks left behind.
The matter of the Roving Jade Heavens’ migration would cause a huge commotion. There was no need to attempt to hide it from others.
As such, Yan Zhaoge had to think of a way to drag away the attention of those surrounding surveillance. Then, he would use the short amount of opportunity to obtain success.
“While not everyone would be distracted, as long as a part of them are, our chances of succeeding would increase drastically,” explained Yan Zhaoge. “When that time comes, I would bring the Pill Hall back to the Dao universe, and fuse the Roving Jade Heavens within. After that, we would immediately leave, and conceal ourselves within the void’s boundless outskirts once more.”
The Profound Sovereign said, “Do whatever you feel like doing. I’ll order people to cooperate with you. Before succeeding with your plan, don’t make too much of a commotion to prevent your movements from being leaked.”
Yan Zhaoge nodded, “Naturally, which was why I brought the Brocade Emperor along with me.”
The Brocade Emperor – Fu Yunchi’s expression remained unchanged. Before coming here, plans were already made. The reason for him coming here was merely serving as Yan Zhaoge’s guise, covering up for Yan Zhaoge.
“Xuebo, you and Little Ye shall take turns to guide Zhaoge and Fu Yunchi to walk around outside.” The Profound Sovereign looked at her elder son. Gao Xuebo nodded, “Yes, I understand.”
The Profound Sovereign looked at Yan Zhaoge once more, “After discussing with my mother later, I would be entering seclusion during the next few days. If no accident happens, do everything according to your plan. There’s no need to care about me.”
“Profound Sovereign, are you attempting to challenge the Profound Origin Tribulation?” Yan Zhaoge’s heart wavered a little.
With the help of the Pill Hall’s internal pill qi, the Sword Sovereign – Yue Zhenbei had successfully gained some improvement, refining his four types of aura into his Immortal Aura.
With the Four Qis Fused Aura, Yue Zhenbei was now like the Lofty Sovereign – Zheng Buxu, the Astro Sovereign – Chen Xuanzong, and the previous Concealed Sovereign – Yang Ce. They were all currently in the peak of the Profound Immortal Realm.
Similarly, the Astro Sovereign – Chen Xuanzong had also produced some great news.
As long as sufficient planning was made to ensure that the Water Devil wouldn’t cause havoc when he challenged the tribulation, he had the confidence to pass the Profound Origin Tribulation within a hundred years, officially stepping into the territory of Five Qis Unification.
From the looks of it now, the Profound Sovereign – Gao Qingxuan also had the confidence to take that step forward, and even achieve it earlier than Chen Xuanzong.
During the war that happened twenty years ago, Yan Zhaoge had attempted to contact the Roving Jade Heavens. The news that he received was that Gao Qingxuan had been in seclusion for a few years. In the end, she failed to ascend to the Grand Virtual Immortal Realm, as she didn’t have the full confidence to breakthrough.
After twenty years, the time was finally ripe for her. Yan Zhaoge was also feeling happy for her.
Gao Han, Jiang Shen, and Ling Qing were all people who started cultivating after the Great Calamity.
Among the Three Clear Lineage successors that appeared after the Great Calamity, Gao Qingxuan might be the second person to achieve Five Qis Unification, ascending to the Grand Virtual Immortal Realm, with Suo Mingzhang being the first.
Sword cultivators would have a more challenging time experiencing any improvements than other martial art cultivators, especially when ascending to the Immortal Realm. Now that Gao Qingxuan had the confidence to ascend to a new realm, Yan Zhaoge felt extremely happy for her.
“In the end, it’s still slightly later than expected.” Gao Qingxuan did not deny it, nor was she feeling proud of it. She merely nodded peacefully, affirming Yan Zhaoge’s guess.
Other than the Dragon Spring Emperor, everyone else, including Long Xueji, Gao Xuebo, the Cloud Conquest Emperor, and the Brocade Emperor, were surprised. They came to congratulate Gao Qingxuan.
“Then, senior apprentice-uncle Long, you…” Yan Zhaoge looked at the Dragon Spring Emperor – Long Xingquan, and looked at the Cloud Conquest Emperor.
Long Xingquan smiled and said, “Daoist Cloud Conquest and I are both nurturing our swords. There’s no need to care about us as well. Just do whatever you want to do.”
The Cloud Conquest Emperor also smiled slightly.
Yan Zhaoge nodded, and the Profound Sovereign – Gao Qingxuan quickly added, “I will control the suppression of the Green Duckweed Sword’s sword mark. Just do whatever you’re supposed to, and don’t worry too much about it.”
“That couldn’t be any better,” said Yan Zhaoge.
Now, he already knew that the Roving Jade Seven had established the Roving Jade Heavens under the Incongruence Divine Mother’s secret support.
Just like how the establishment of the World beyond Worlds had received the assistance of the Primordial Heavenly Lord’s Triratna Jade Scepter, the establishment of the Roving Jade Heavens had received the assistance of a treasure left behind by the Lord of Prime Clear Numinous Treasure.
The Lord of Numinous Treasure’s sword, the Green Duckweed Sword!
After the Lord of Numinous Treasure had transcended, this sword had been held by the Incongruence Divine Mother, up until now.
When Yan Zhaoge first visited the Roving Jade Heavens, he could feel the exceptionally sharp pulse of spirit qi within the Green Duckweed Mountain. While he felt extremely uncomfortable, he had a vague guess in his heart.
And now, his guess had been verified.
Gao Qingxuan’s gaze towards Yan Zhaoge became softer, “Currently, the situation is still uncertain. After everything settles down, I’ll talk to you and your father again.”
Long Xingquan wasn’t the only one. She also desired to see her junior apprentice sister’s descendent.
History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1338 - Making Preparations
After hearing the words of the Profound Sovereign – Gao Qingxuan, Yan Zhaoge’s North Ocean clone bowed to her, “You’re too courteous, Profound Sovereign. My father and I also hope to meet you and senior apprentice-uncle Long.”
Gao Qingxuan nodded, and Yan Zhaoge and others left the cave manor.
They all knew that Gao Qingxuan and the Vine Sovereign would be having a conversation.
Though, Yan Zhaoge didn’t have any hopes of the Vine Sovereign changing her mind.
After exiting the cave manor, Yan Zhaoge did not remain by here any longer. He bid farewell to Long Xingquan, Long Xueji, and the Cloud Conquest Emperor, and left together with Gao Xuebo.
Since he had already made up his mind, there was no need to delay any further. He instantly started taking action.
From the surface, Gao Xuebo merely looked like he was guiding the Brocade Emperor – Fu Yunchi to walk around leisurely within the Roving Jade Heavens as if they appreciated the view.
Although the Brocade Emperor – Fu Yunchi had left the World beyond Worlds together with Yan Zhaoge, he was still of the Grand Clear lineage. He was much more independent.
Walking around the Roving Jade Heavens wouldn’t be so attention-grabbing under the guidance of Gao Xuebo.
No one could tell if Fu Yunchi decided to join the Roving Jade Heavens instead.
As for Yan Zhaoge, he was currently hiding within a dark spot. Just like what he did in the World beyond Worlds, he was methodically laying down his preparations.
&
nbsp; He was currently hiding within Gao Xuebo’s sleeves, writing sheets after sheets of radiating talismans.
Then, the talisman turned ethereal within the void and flew out on its own, landing upon the Roving Jade Heaven’s territories that spanned billions of miles.
“So subtle. Now that I’m looking at it myself, it’s truly extraordinary.” While Gao Xuebo was casually conversing with Fu Yunchi, he was also observing Yan Zhaoge’s actions and was amazed by it.
He was also a sword cultivator. However, unlike his brother – Long Xueji, he wasn’t as devoted to cultivating the sword.
Gao Xuebo had involved himself in other martial arts, like the formation arts or pill techniques. In fact, he was quite proficient in them as well.
However, he still couldn’t catch up to watching Yan Zhaoge writing all sorts of runes. He could only tell that Yan Zhaoge’s runes were quite profound, but couldn’t fully interpret it.
“You praise me too much, senior apprentice-uncle Gao.” Yan Zhaoge chuckled. “Oh, right. I haven’t congratulated you for successfully pushing open the Immortal Door, and passing the Immortal Mortal Tribulation, ascending to the Leakless True Immortal Realm.”
Gao Xuebo smiled slightly, “I’m already old, so I had no choice but to do so. There’s nothing to congratulate about. I’m merely someone laughable in front of you guys.”
The Brocade Emperor – Fu Yunchi could also hear the sound transmission between the two. He immediately said, “What are you saying, Daoist Gao? You’ve successfully nurtured your sword. Your performance skyrocketed after successfully nurturing your sword. Now, you might even be closer to the Tranquil Profound Immortal Realm than I. If you say it like that, it’ll only make me feel bad.”
A few years ago, the Roving Jade Heavens finally had the addition of a True Immortal Emperor. That person was the Profound Sovereign – Gao Qingxuan and the Dragon Spring Emperor – Long Xingquan’s eldest son, Gao Xuebo.
It has been more than a thousand years since he ascended to the Exalt Realm.
Even if he wasn’t as old as Wang Zhengcheng and Yue Zhenbei, he was much older than Fu Yunchi.
Compared to his younger brother – Long Xueji, he was much older.
The reason why he had remained by the Exalt Realm was that he was cultivating the Prime Clear lineage’s secret art – the Sheathe Edge and Nurture Sword. A thousand years were like a day to him.
While this art caused this Prime Clear Sword Cultivator to remain in his current realm, it also continuously polished his sharpness.
When his divine sword was finally unsealed and reappeared in the world once more, he would have a higher chance of breaking through his current realm.
Moreover, such a positive effect could even last until the next realm, allowing him to rush towards an even further realm.
As such, when the conditions permit it, some Prime Clear experts would be cultivating this particular art. Among them, even the Dragon Spring Emperor of the Jade Clear lineage was cultivating it.
However, this art was extremely hard to cultivate. The number of people able to successfully cultivate this art was extremely little. In fact, a majority of them had even received a backlash from it.
Basically, those who were able to safely cultivate the secret art – Sheathe Edge and Nurture Sword, would have the potential and capabilities to push open the Immortal Door by themselves.
Part of the reason for them Sheathing their Edge and Nurturing their Sword was in consideration for actual combat. During the day that their sword becomes unsealed, they would surprise their enemies, becoming a trump card during a battle between life and death.
On the other hand, it was much more beneficial for them to ascend to a higher realm.
Since the conditions were so harsh, there were naturally minimal people who chose to cultivate it.
Gao Xuebo was among one of those who had succeeded in cultivating the technique.
Theoretically, the Sheathe Edge and Nurture Sword could continue infinitely. However, they had to put a problem into consideration as well, which was their lifespan.
The reason why Gao Xuebo finally unsealed his blade a few years ago, taking that step forward, was because his natural lifespan had already entered old age.
Simultaneously, the appearance of the Western Pure Lands and the Demon Race made the situation more unpredictable for the entire Roving Jade Heavens, and Gao Xuebo himself.
So, after careful consideration, Gao Xuebo finally decided not to nurture his sword any longer. Instead, he unsealed it by himself and took the final step forward, pushing open the Immortal Door.
When Gao Xuebo stepped into the True Immortal Realm, while he could increase the Roving Jade Heavens’ overall strength, he could also decrease the burden of his parents, the Profound Sovereign and the Spring Emperor.
Compared to an Exalt Martial Saint, a True Immortal handling matter would naturally become much more convenient.
With this, the Profound Sovereign and the others could become more relaxed and spend more time and effort on their cultivation.
“You’re too humble.” Fu Yunchi smiled softly.
Due to how much he had accumulated during the Sheathe Edge and Nurture Sword period, Gao Xuebo was now much closer to the Profound Immortal Realm than the Brocade Emperor.
The previous time that he had accumulated wouldn’t go to waste.
However, Fu Yunchi didn’t mind it either. After all, he had a clear understanding of his current condition.
During the past two decades, after he received Yan Zhaoge’s reminder, he had been continuously studying the Severing Feeling’s Parasitism art. Although he had yet to succeed, he had received some rewards.
Only, he didn’t know what emotions he should feel when he was continually exchanging information with Yan Zhaoge.
This teenager’s understanding of the various Grand Clear secret arts was much more profound than him, someone of the Grand Clear lineage living for thousands of years.
Even if Yan Zhaoge was walking the path of the Three Clear together, it still amazed him.
Although Fu Yunchi couldn’t see the Yan Zhaoge that was hiding within Gao Xuebo’s sleeves, his mind still drifted away to the myriad of thoughts surfacing within his head.
The three of them walked for a while and took some pauses, leaving down shapeless marks all over the Roving Jade Heaven’s Nine Regions.
…………
Within the Astro Mountains Starry Sea, various stars in the sky were floating up and down, with countless worlds being filled with stars.
Suddenly, a yellow cloud flew out from one of the worlds. The yellow cloud was thin and long, like a snake. The cloud was slithering within the skies, traversing through the vast Astro Mountains Starry Sea’s cosmos.
The yellow cloud traversed through the fabrics of space and finally reached the Astro Mountains Starry Sea’s central core location.
Over there, it was a vast, majestic world as pretty as a divine realm.
When the yellow cloud descended upon this world, the cloud dissipated, and a man with a Daoist appearance appeared, with a group of his disciples and servants along.
The Daoist brought his group along, traversed through countless divine mountains, and finally stopped at a cave manor’s door.
As soon as he stabilized his footing, the voice of the cave manor’s owner resounded, “Daoist Hundred Eyes, congratulations on successfully refining the divine pill.”
“Thanks, thanks.” When the Daoist entered the cave manor, a male servant guided him to meet up with the cave manor’s owner, “Why did you invite me over?”
History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1339 - Group of Demons Making Plans
After the cave manor’s owner welcomed the Daoist, he didn’t remain courteous. Instead, he went straight to the point, “Indeed, I’ve invited you here to discuss something.”
“What do you want to talk about?” The Daoist appearance middle-aged man took the wine goblet on the table and drank it.
>
The cave manor’s owner wasn’t in a rush to the main point. Instead, he first asked, “Previously, you have been busy refining pills. How much do you know of what’s happening in the outside world?”
The Daoist said frankly, “After coming out of seclusion, he had heard of some of the huge matters that happened.”
“Finally, we can leave this place. We won’t have to hide within the Astro Mountains Starry Sea any longer.”
For the entire Demon Race that lived and bred by the Astro Mountains Starry Sea, this was a grand matter worthy of showing solicitude, especially for the top-notch Demon Race bigwig experts.
“I heard that the Heavenly Court’s Divine Palace’s Pill Hall had also resurfaced within the world.” Speaking until here, a few hints of greed were leaking out from his eyes.
“Oh, right. It seems like a new Grand Heavenly Immortal had appeared within the Daoism’s Three Clear Lineage?” More hints of envy appeared beneath his eyes.
The owner of the cave manor nodded, “That’s right.”
The Daoist returned to his senses and looked at the cave manor’s owner, “Why did you invite me here for?”
“Haven’t you always been wanting to cause troubles to the Incongruence Divine Mother’s successors?” said the cane manor’s owner, “There’s an opportunity for you to do so now.”
The Daoist showed a face of doubt, “I’ve never heard anything about the Incongruence Divine Mother’s perishment.”
“Indeed, the Incongruence Divine Mother had yet to perish. However, the chance is still here.” The cave manor’s owner shrugged, “The Nine-headed Great Sage had come out of seclusion recently.”
“The Nine-headed Great Sage doesn’t even hold any grudges against the Incongruence Divine Mother.” The Daoist slanted his eyes, the suspicion on his face growing thicker.
