Chapter 1250: Chapter 1099: The Resolve of the Thousand Crafts Sect "Rest assured, Peak Master, I will relay this message to the Palace Master unchanged." Since the Thousand Crafts Sect’s stance was clear, Mingzhu felt there was no need to stay and turned to leave.
Before Mingzhu left, Feng Xian Liuyi added, "Tell Palace Master Zhuo that if necessary, I, Feng Xian Liuyi, can go to Zeming Palace alone for a detailed discussion!"
Upon hearing this, Mingzhu’s steps faltered.
Visit Zeming Palace personally!
She never expected Feng Xian Liuyi to be so determined. After all, many people from Zeming Palace had died at her hands. Going to Zeming Palace was akin to walking into a trap.
It was evident that the Vortex Map and Vortex Killing Artifact from the Purple Device Pavilion exerted enormous pressure on the Thousand Crafts Sect.
"Understood by Mingzhu."
Mingzhu responded and, after bidding farewell, turned into a streak of light and left the Thousand Crafts Sect’s premises.
...
Purple Device Pavilion.
The auction had ended, but Si Haixian and the others were still basking in the joy it brought.
Those who acquired the Four-Vortex Vortex Map started absorbing it right there in the Purple Device Pavilion.
Wenping didn’t stop them, as long as nothing like what happened to Si Haixian occurred, it wouldn’t impact the Purple Device Pavilion.
"I’ll leave the Purple Device Pavilion in your care. If Master Zi Ran returns to the sect, you can also visit the sect." Wenping advised Celestial String before preparing to activate the Teleportation Array.
Just then, the Sound Transmission Stone in his pocket began to stir.
Wenping took out the Sound Transmission Stone.
Chen Xie’s voice immediately came through.
"Sect Leader, the resolve of the Thousand Crafts Sect and Zeming Palace to ally against us is strong, with the Thousand Crafts Sect particularly more determined than Zeming Palace. Given the current situation, an alliance between them is inevitable."
Upon hearing this, Wenping hadn’t yet reacted when Celestial String beside him frowned, also unable to believe the truth.
"How could they, having been opposing each other for hundreds of years, suddenly unite in peace?"
Chen Xie responded, "Elder Celestial String, don’t doubt it. The threat and fear brought by the Purple Device Pavilion are beyond what you imagine."
After explaining, Chen Xie further inquired to Wenping, "Sect Leader, should we send Black Shadow to follow them into Zeming Palace and the Thousand Crafts Sect to keep an eye on the Palace Master of Zeming Palace and the Sect Leader of Thousand Crafts Sect?"
"I happen to have some Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted cultivator corpses you can convert into Black Shadows." Wenping paused for a few moments, then instructed, "Have they returned yet?"
"Not yet, but they’re already discussing their return." Chen Xie replied.
"Then let them return, and send Black Shadow to watch them. In any case, every move of Zeming Palace and the Thousand Crafts Sect must be monitored. It’s not yet extravagant to use Celestial Unrestricted corpses to convert Black Shadows, so when sending Black Shadows to watch over the Palace Master and Sect Leader, be careful. Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm cultivators can’t detect Black Shadows, but that doesn’t mean Heaven Unrestricted Upper Realm cultivators can’t."
Though Wenping cautioned, he really didn’t care much about Zeming Palace and the Thousand Crafts Sect.
Why monitor them?
It’s just to prevent any flies from suddenly buzzing around and biting the Immortal Sect.
Even if bitten, it wouldn’t hurt but it’d certainly itch!
"Black Shadow?"
Celestial String beside him was a bit surprised.
Is this the means of the All-Knowing Tower?
Zeming Palace and Thousand Crafts Sect can really be watched!
No wonder the All-Knowing Tower claims to know everything!
"You’ll understand when you visit the Immortal Sect." Wenping faced Celestial String’s surprise without further explanation, instead continuing, "Have you informed Master Zi Ran about Mingzhu’s matter?"
"I already have! At the time, Master Zi Ran didn’t say much, just mentioned everything could be discussed after the auction ends."
"Understood. If there’s nothing else, carry on with your own matters." At this moment, Wenping dismissed the thought of immediately returning to the sect and instead decided to meet Zi Ran and You Yue first.
"Sect Leader, Elder Mulong might not hold out much longer. The Sky-Split Race seems to have awakened something stronger than the Demon Emperor. Just now, this will descended into the Howling Abyss from underground."
"Stronger than the Sky-Split Race Demon Emperor, above Heaven Unrestricted? What’s Mulong’s situation now?"
"Whether it’s above Heaven Unrestricted is unclear, probably we’ll only know when Elder Mulong returns. However, when the will descended, the billions of demons in the Sky-Split Race trembled, even the Demon Emperor with Heaven Unrestricted Upper Realm strength wasn’t spared. Following that, the overall assault of the Sky-Split Race became several times more intense, indicating that the will commanded them to quickly kill Elder Mulong."
"Keep an eye on it, I’ll be back soon."
"Understood!"
After Chen Xie responded, Wenping put away the Sound Transmission Stone, then directed his gaze to Celestial String, who had a look of shock but didn’t dare to interrupt.
"Sect Leader, what’s the situation with the Howling Abyss and Sky-Split Race?" Celestial String found himself even more bewildered by the Immortal Sect.
He knew about the Howling Abyss.
Located in the Black Domain.
One of the Ten Great Forbidden Lands in Heaven-Gazing Gorge.
Rumor has it that even Heaven Unrestricted cultivators have only a one-in-ten survival chance if they get lost in it, illustrating its terrifying nature.
From Elder Chen Xie and the Sect Leader’s conversation, it seemed the Immortal Sect had an Elder Mulong fighting in the Howling Abyss and possibly even stirred a presence above Heaven Unrestricted.
Above Heaven Unrestricted...
