Chapter 166: Immortal King Linglong
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The immortals of the Central World were indeed arrogant. Not only did they call themselves immortals, but they also dared to call themselves Immortal Kings.
Clearly, the true identities of the man and woman who had suddenly appeared were those of the Immortal Race. They hid behind the scenes and did not appear until the matter was over.
From the beginning to the end, the true goal of the immortals was the Nine Nether Gate. Be it to sow discord between the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, the Nine Nether Ghost Sect, and the Endless Abyss, or to find the Battle Sacred Body, these things were only done conveniently.
From the beginning, the goal of the immortals was to ‘awaken’ the Nine Nether Will and let the Nine Nether Gate reappear. Although the process was a little complicated, the immortals had already achieved their goal.
The Nine Nether Gate was opened.
Yang Li, You Tianling, and Woodius joined forces to seal the Nine Nether Gate, but the immortals had the corresponding backup plan. They used the Immortal Token to break the seal array formation, and a gap appeared.
This way, the gap in the sealing array formation had already been opened. Nine Nether Qi slowly flowed out from the Nine Nether. Although the gap was not big, there was not much Nine Nether Qi slowly seeping out.
However, as time passed, this gap would gradually widen and more and more Nine Nether Qi would flow out. In the future, when the sealing array formation completely shattered, the Nine Nether Gate would truly appear.
At that time, it would be extremely difficult to seal the Nine Nether Gate again, almost impossible.
It would still take a long time to reach that step.
“Let’s go.”
The male immortal said, “We should go back and report.”
The female immortal nodded.
They transformed into streaks of light and disappeared into the distance.
Heaven Enlightenment Sect.
Qi Ming and the others had also returned.
Daoist Martial Saint announced the end of this Heaven Enlightenment Sect legacy competition. However, in this competition, no legacy disciple of any peak had an outstanding performance.
Therefore, in this Heaven Enlightenment Sect legacy competition, no legacy disciple of any peak could enter the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain to cultivate.
After the legacy competition ended, Yang Li and the Grand Elders left one after another. Everyone naturally dispersed. The palaces and twelve floating palaces of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect’s legacy competition became quiet.
“I should return to the Heaven Secrets Manor.”
Qi Ming bid farewell to Feng Zimu and the others.
In this legacy competition, the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, the Nine Nether Ghost Sect, and the three great factions of the Endless Abyss had a conflict. There was even a considerable battle.
But in fact, this was still the initial confrontation between Qi Ming and Immortal King Linglong, who had grasped the Dao of Heaven Secrets. Although the two of them had not met, they had both deduced the Heaven Secrets.
Somehow, there had already been a battle of the Dao of Heaven Secrets.
Of course, this battle could not determine who would win or lose. Moreover, it was not a head-on clash. They had only crossed paths.
Qi Ming deduced the matter of the legacy competition and interfered with this matter, allowing the matter of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect’s legacy competition to be resolved.
Therefore, Qi Ming had actually succeeded this time. He had achieved his goal.
As for Immortal King Linglong, he had deduced that if he wanted to open the Nine Nether Gate, he could use the help of this legacy competition of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect and let the Nine Nether Ghost Sect and the Endless Abyss participate. The Nine Nether Gate would successfully open in the Myriad Ghost Cave.
Moreover, he had deduced that the Battle Sacred Body was extremely likely to exist in the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.
From the results, the Nine Nether Gate had indeed successfully opened. Moreover, the Battle Sacred Body was indeed in the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, although they could not really confirm who the person with the Battle Sacred Body was.
However, from the results, Immortal King Linglong had also succeeded this time.
The process of obtaining the results changed.
The Dao of Heaven Secrets was mysterious and unfathomable. The changes in fate and the various things in the future were originally unfathomable. Even if one truly grasped the Dao of Heaven Secrets and could calculate the changes in the heavenly secrets, it was always filled with various variables.
Even without knowing each other, they had already crossed paths.
Additionally, the history of the past was already predestined and difficult to change, but the future of the heavens was filled with changes.
Late at night.
In the Heaven Secrets Manor, in the cultivation courtyard.
Qi Ming sat cross-legged. In front of him, the Heaven Secrets Book and the Heaven Secrets Brush appeared. The power of the Heaven Secrets surged, and it also contained a trace of a change in fate.
The Heaven Secrets Book kept turning pages. There was even a page that was separated from the book and floated above it, containing light.
Immediately after, the Heaven Secrets Brush wrote something on this divided page.
“This is…”
Qi Ming’s expression changed slightly.
Not long after, on this page.
The Heaven Secrets Brush wrote a name—Linglong!
“Linglong.”
Qi Ming pondered for a moment and did not understand the meaning behind it.
Swish!
The page of this Heaven Secrets Book contained the word ‘Linglong’. It transformed into a pure white stream of light that entered Qi Ming’s eyebrows and fused into his mind.
All kinds of information appeared.
“The Immortal Race.”
Qi Ming opened his eyes, and they were filled with understanding, “Immortal King Linglong, so there’s also an existence among the immortals who has grasped the Dao of Heaven Secrets. That existence is Immortal King Linglong.”
“Moreover…”
“In the unseen world, I actually began the initial confrontation with Immortal King Linglong. However, the goal of the Heaven Secrets that we deduced was different, so we only crossed paths and did not directly conflict.”
“Impressive.”
“There’s actually such a thing.”
Qi Ming took a deep breath, “The Dao of Heaven Secrets is really mysterious.”
He felt a hint of reverence for the Dao of Heaven Secrets.
In the past, Qi Ming believed that he had grasped the Heavenly Constellation Thirty-six Techniques. He had the support of two mystic technique divine powers, Future Sight, and Heavenly Observation. Moreover, he had grasped the three Lesser Divine Powers that his master, Patriarch Heaven Secrets, had taught him. Finally, he had the Heaven Secrets Book and the Heaven Secrets Brush.
With these three factors combined, Qi Ming felt that he had already completely grasped the workings of the heavens and seen through fate. Everything was under his control and deduction.
Now it seemed this was not the case.
The battle of the workings of the heavens was extremely dangerous. Perhaps because of the changes in some details, it would cause the entire future to collapse, and all kinds of things would undergo unpredictable changes.
By deducing the secrets of the heavens and the future, he could only obtain some important information in advance and make the corresponding preparations according to these important information.
As for the final outcome, it still required his own effort and intervention.
Suddenly, the Dao runes of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao appeared around Qi Ming. The Three Pure Nascent Soul was chanting Dao Scripture scriptures. The power of the Purity Golden Body had already circulated in an invisible manner, exempting itself from a mysterious and unseen connection to the heavens.
“This is…”
Qi Ming’s eyes lit up. He understood in his heart and a smile appeared on his face, “With the support of the Purity Golden Body, I’m immune to all methods. This way, even if Immortal King Linglong sensed the change in the heavenly secrets, he would not be able to find any information about me. Instead, I learned some information about Immortal King Linglong.”
“In other words…”
The corners of Qi Ming’s mouth curled up slightly, “At the end of this battle of the heavenly secrets, I can be considered to have obtained a slight advantage. I reckon that even Immortal King Linglong would not be able to guess that I possess a divine power spell technique like the Purity Golden Body. It’s enough to resist all techniques.”
The scene changed.
In the Central World, Sacred Land of the Immortal Race, on the Myriad Immortal Mountain.
Immortal fog curled up like a paradise.
Not far away, there was an Exquisite Immortal Mountain.
At the top of the mountain, there was a nine-story Immortal Pavilion. A plaque was hung at the entrance of the Immortal Pavilion. On the plaque was written: Exquisite Immortal Pavilion, it was Immortal King Linglong’s Manor Pavilion.
In the Exquisite Immortal Pavilion, on the ninth level, in the secret room where Immortal King Linglong was.
On the mat, Immortal King Linglong sat cross-legged. There was an extremely dense aura of the workings of the heavens around him, and it transformed into a hazy mist that enveloped his entire body. It was ethereal and immortal qi, and it was extremely mysterious.
It was impossible to see clearly.
“I actually can’t calculate it.”
Immortal King Linglong’s tone was filled with shock and confusion. He fell into deep thought. After a long time, he said, “This is impossible.”
“The Dao of Heaven Secrets has changed. There must be an existence who has cultivated the Dao of Heaven Secrets participating in this matter. Under the guidance of the Heaven Secrets, I will definitely be able to deduce the other party’s identity. Even if I can’t deduce it, it’s impossible for me to not obtain any information.”
“This is too abnormal.”
“Could it be…”
Immortal King Linglong took a deep breath and felt slight disbelief in his heart, “The other party’s cultivation in the Dao of Heaven Secrets has already completely surpassed me and reached an unbelievable realm?”
“If that’s the case, he will definitely become a great enemy of the Immortals. We have to find him as soon as possible and kill him no matter the price.”
The night passed.
The next day arrived.
In the morning.
Su Qingyin arrived at the Heaven Secrets Manor and visited Qi Ming. She brought Yang Li’s words and summoned Qi Ming. Qi Ming and Su Qingyin headed to the Sect Master Hall.
This time, Qi Ming saw all the Grand Elders of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect in the Sect Master Hall.
Of the twelve branches of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain, there were a total of 28 Grand Elders. Every one of them had reached the Tribulation Transcendence realm. However, even in the Tribulation Transcendence realm, there were high and low strengths.
In addition, apart from the 28 Grand Elders, Qi Ming also saw eight personal disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect’s ancestor. Patriarch Heaven Secrets only had one personal disciple, but the other two ancestors of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect accepted a total of eight personal disciples during the period of sealing themselves in the forbidden land.
Of course, Su Qingyin also participated.
She was Yang Li’s personal disciple, and her status was not low.
“Qi Ming, you’re here.”
Yang Li sat on the Sect Master’s seat and gestured at Qi Ming.
Qi Ming nodded slightly and sat at the end.
The highest level of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect was gathered in the Sect Master Hall. There was naturally something important. Yang Li also slowly explained the reason why he gathered everyone.
Yang Li said, “Since everyone is here, let’s officially begin.”
“The matter of this legacy competition is important. It’s not only the conflict between the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, the Nine Nether Ghost Sect, and the Endless Abyss.”
Yang Li said in a low voice, “It’s also a scheme of the immortals.”
“Moreover…”
Yang Li continued, “The reason why we were able to survive this time was mainly because of Qi Ming. If not for him deducing the heavenly secrets, we would not have discovered anything beforehand.”
“Senior Brother Qi.”
“Qi Ming!”
“Legacy Disciple Qi…”
In the surroundings, the 28 Grand Elders, eight personal disciples, and Su Qingyin all looked at Qi Ming with shocked expressions.
“Cough cough…”
Qi Ming coughed lightly, “Grand Elders, Senior Brothers, and Senior Sisters, I only casually deduced and accidentally discovered this situation. Everyone, don’t be too shocked.. It’s fine as long as you’re used to it.”
