"This is definitely not a good thing!"

Han Jue muttered to himself, not wanting the Crimson Cloud Realm to become too strong and attract the attention of gods.

It was best if it remained in the middle stage all along, completely lacking any presence.

It was fine for now, having only risen by a few hundred places; if it kept growing continuously, then there would be a problem.

Han Jue felt that it would be necessary to frequently pay attention to the Heavenly Dao Tablet in the future.

He hadn't even done anything, so why was the Crimson Cloud Realm still growing stronger?

After becoming an immortal and god, Han Jue's Luck was no longer tied to the Crimson Cloud Realm.

Could it be the influence of the Mountain of Bitter Cultivation to Immortality?

Han Jue couldn't figure it out, so he couldn't be bothered to think about it anymore.

…

Inside the discussion hall on the Main Peak of the Yuqing Sacred Sect.

True Person Jiuding sat on the throne with a worried expression.

The faces of the Elders in the hall were similarly shrouded in dark clouds of worry.

Liu Bumie spoke up, "This matter cannot be bypassed. Murong Qi is the Grand-disciple of the God Slaying Elder. Although this relationship hasn't spread out, if anything happens to Murong Qi, the God Slaying Elder will surely be furious."

The other Elders followed suit and agreed.

True Person Jiuding had a headache and said helplessly, "It's not that something happened to Murong Qi right now; it's that he wants to stir up trouble and destroy the Holy Land. Which of you can dissuade him? Could it be that you want me to go find the God Slaying Elder? He did say that he wouldn't interfere in worldly affairs, including the grudges of his Disciples and Grand-disciples. He said he wouldn't care, but if Murong Qi dies, he will definitely hold a grudge in his heart. I called you all here precisely in hopes that you could come up with a foolproof plan."

Silence.

The grand hall quieted down once more.

Trying to persuade Murong Qi was simply too difficult.

Today's Murong Qi could already be considered a top powerhouse of the Yuqing Sacred Sect; he was no longer as simple as just a chief Disciple.

"That's right, Murong Qi has a good relationship with Fang Liang, and Fang Liang has a gentle disposition. Why not let Fang Liang go persuade him?" someone suggested.

Fang Liang and Murong Qi were revered by the Yuqing Sacred Sect as the Dual Prodigies, and both were already powerhouses running rampant across the world.

True Person Jiuding's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Fang Liang is not in the Yuqing Sacred Sect. Who will go find him?"

Liu Bumie replied, "I'll go. I can also represent the intentions of the Yuqing Sacred Sect."

True Person Jiuding glanced at him and nodded slightly.

The matter was thus settled.

…

In the blink of an eye, another seven years passed.

On this day, an old friend came to visit Han Jue.

It was precisely Huang Jihao of the True Martial Sect, who was formerly an Elder of the Vermilion Bird Sword Sect of the Great Yan and had once challenged Han Jue, nearly being instantly killed.

This person possessed Innate Luck, an Innate Sword Heart, and had even been to the River of Sword Dao.

Han Jue had always had an impression of him because this fellow was a combat maniac who could go toe-to-toe with Immortal God Ji and consistently occupied the top three spots on the list of being attacked the most.

After thinking it over, Han Jue decided to see him anyway.

When Huang Jihao entered the Mountain of Bitter Cultivation to Immortality, he was instantly shocked.

Such dense Spiritual Qi!

Even after traveling all over the world, he had never felt such Spiritual Qi.

When he reached the top of the mountain and saw the Three-Headed Flood Dragon King and the two Golden Crows, his hair stood on end even more.

The aura of the three demons made him instinctively feel danger.

Tu Ling'er glanced at him, ignored him, and continued to Cultivate.

The Black Hell Chicken curiously looked over at him.

It seemed somewhat familiar.

Chu Shiren was still Cultivating.

Zhou Mingyue opened her eyes and sized up Huang Jihao.

"Come in."

Han Jue's voice drifted out from the Immortal Cave. The Immortal Cave doors opened, and the Enlightenment Sword walked out with a curled lip and an unhappy expression.

Huang Jihao looked at her, inwardly startled.

This woman's cultivation was also extremely high; although inferior to his own, placed in the Cultivation World, she was definitely a mighty Cultivator.

Several hundred years had passed; how did Han Jue have so many powerhouses emerge under his command?

In his heart, Huang Jihao inexplicably felt some regret.

He adjusted his mindset and walked into the Innate Cave Mansion.

Zhou Mingyue asked curiously, "Who is this person? He doesn't feel as powerful as you all, so why was he able to enter the Grandmaster's manor?"

Chu Shiren didn't even open his eyes as he said, "Cultivate properly. You don't even have the qualifications to be summoned by the Grandmaster."

Hearing this, Zhou Mingyue felt awkward.

Her cultivation speed was already very fast, it just didn't stand out under the fusang tree.

She often wondered what kind of freaks these people were!

Outside, a Nascent Soul could already be considered a mighty figure, but here…

Two suns were lying on the tree; if she said that out, who would dare believe it?

Zhou Mingyue sighed and continued to Cultivate.

Inside the Innate Cave Mansion.

Seeing Han Jue once more, Huang Jihao fell into a brief trance.

He was still just as handsome, enough to amaze people.

Even among women, there had never been anyone whose appearance could amaze him like this.

Han Jue couldn't stand his gaze and asked, "What are you looking for me for?"

Huang Jihao snapped back to his senses and said, "Is Murong Qi your Grand-disciple?"

"That's right. What is it?"

"This brat is too arrogant, claiming to be Number One in the World."

"He's alright."

"If he is Number One in the World, then what about you? He doesn't put you, his Grandmaster, in his eyes at all."

"I do not belong to the world; I belong to the heavens."

"…"

Huang Jihao was choked with no words to say.

Han Jue frowned and said, "You came to find me just to talk about this?"

Nothing better to do?

Huang Jihao said, "Murong Qi provoked my people, so I cannot stand by and do nothing. I must fight him, but since he is your Grand-disciple, I can spare his life."

"No problem."

Han Jue replied, a strange smile appearing on his face.

Huang Jihao hesitated and asked, "How strong are you now, Senior?"

That respectful address showed his caution.

Han Jue said, "Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand. Could it be that you want to spar with me again?"

Huang Jihao hurriedly shook his head.

Are you kidding?

Han Jue was an existence that had already fought against immortals and gods; how could he dare to fight?

Back then, his Master Shangguan Qiujian came to challenge Han Jue and instantly fell into deep self-doubt, and his Realm hasn't increased much to this day.

"When will you Ascend, Senior?" Huang Jihao asked cautiously.

Han Jue smiled and said, "Ascend? Absolutely impossible. I will just stay in the Mortal Realm forever."

Huang Jihao's expression changed drastically.

…

An incense stick's time later, Huang Jihao walked out of the Innate Cave Mansion.

His expression was dazed, as if he had lost his soul.

The Black Hell Chicken teased, "I remember now. He seemed to have come to challenge Master before, and even brought his Master along."

Zhou Mingyue asked curiously, "What was the result?"

"The result, of course, was an instant defeat, and his Master was almost scared to death."

"Grandmaster is truly amazing."

The person and the chicken seemed like a comedic duo, making Huang Jihao frown as he listened.

Although Huang Jihao felt uncomfortable inside, he didn't flare up and quickly left.

Han Jue took out the heavenly dao token and began to observe Murong Qi.

What had Murong Qi been doing all these years?

Murong Qi was Cultivating on top of an isolated Peak, sitting cross-legged against the wind with his robes billowing, quite possessing the demeanor of an otherworldly expert.

Seeing that he was Cultivating, Han Jue lost interest.

He had to admit that Murong Qi's cultivation speed was indeed fast, having just broken through to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm not long ago.

Han Jue couldn't help but think of the Immortal Emperor Reincarnation in the Divine Palace.

Could it be that after a mighty figure reincarnated, their cultivation speed could surpass their past self?

Going at this rate, in several hundred years, Murong Qi would be able to reach the mortal Peak.

It might even be faster!

Fang Liang wasn't slow either, already possessing the cultivation of the eighth layer of the Body Integration Realm.

Just as Han Jue was pondering, three lines of words popped up before his eyes.

[Your Disciple Su Qi has Ascended, bringing misfortune to the Immortal Realm and causing drastic changes to the Luck of the Immortal Realm. You have the following choices]

[One: Immediately Ascend to stop Su Qi. You can obtain a supreme treasure.]

[Two: Continue to Cultivate without interfering in the Heavenly Court's conspiracy. You can obtain a random powerful Bloodline.]
