Chapter 266: Reporting to Long Yuanguang
Chapter 266: Reporting to Long Yuanguang
The Cultivators of Wanxian Gate and Chaotian Palace all witnessed the abnormalities coming from the Divine Beast Sect's side.
Seeing the Wu Brothers, who were as anxious as ants on a hot pan, everyone couldn't help but inexplicably wear smiles on their faces.
Li Chengqing smiled and said to Cheng Yuanshan beside him,
"Brother Cheng, it seems that Long Aotian of the Divine Beast Sect still hasn't returned. Could it be that he died in the Secret Realm?"
Cheng Yuanshan responded indifferently,
"Who knows? Long Aotian's nature is arrogant and domineering. It is already a miracle that he has lived until now."
"The Taixu Secret Realm is nothing like the outside world; there is no one there to protect him."
"There are high-level Chaos Beasts everywhere in the Secret Realm, as well as various lingering Formations."
"If you told me he died inside, I wouldn't feel surprised in the least."
Li Chengqing nodded silently in agreement.
Given Long Aotian's arrogant personality, everyone merely feared the strength of the Divine Beast Sect
and couldn't do anything to him.
However, things were completely different inside the Taixu Secret Realm.
The Cultivators who entered the Secret Realm had a maximum cultivation base of only the Golden Immortal Realm.
Nobody feared anyone there.
Moreover,
there were so many high-level Chaos Beasts living in the Secret Realm, as well as countless Tai Xu Sect
Formations lingering within the Secret Realm.
If Long Aotian continued to be as arrogant and defiant as he was outside,
then he would indeed easily encounter danger.
Even if he carried countless trump cards on him, it wouldn't necessarily guarantee his safety.
After all, the Taixu Secret Realm had once served as a King-Level Immortal City.
Many lethal moves within the Secret Realm
even posed a certain threat to the Great Luo Immortal King.
If Long Aotian recklessly ran around everywhere, it was indeed possible that he would die inside.
Moreover, aside from the dangers of the Secret Realm itself,
there were as many as twelve thousand Golden Immortal Cultivators who entered the Secret Realm.
Usually, when outside, these people might not dare to provoke Long Aotian easily.
However, in the Secret Realm, the heavens were high and the emperor was far away.
As long as one had sufficient strength, so-called status and background were mere floating clouds.
It was entirely possible to be beaten to death by someone.
Thinking of this,
Li Chengqing's gaze swept across the group of Disciples from Chaotian Palace and Wanxian Gate.
Back then, the two major Sects had a total of six thousand Golden Immortal Disciples entering the Taixu Secret Realm.
Now, fewer than three thousand had returned.
They had lost well over half.
However, the people who returned were all truly elite forces.
As long as a few of them joined forces, they wouldn't necessarily fear Long Aotian.
"Could it really be that some Disciples here killed Long Aotian?"
"If that really is the case, then we will likely face considerable trouble next."
Thinking of this, Li Chengqing turned back and said to Cheng Yuanshan,
"Brother Cheng, if Long Aotian cannot return, won't the Divine Beast Sect vent their anger on us?"
Hearing this, Cheng Yuanshan responded indifferently,
"What is there to fear? Relying just on the Wu Brothers, if they want to court death, I don't mind sending them on their way."
Cheng Yuanshan didn't take the Divine Beast Sect's potential actions to heart at all.
The two major Sects had a total of three Grand Yi Immortal Lords come, and both he and Li Chengqing were at Grand Yi Immortal Perfection.
Coupled with Qian Yuanjiang, their strength was fully capable of suppressing the Wu Brothers.
What's more, they had two Yellow-Rank Immortal Ships, whereas the Divine Beast Sect had only brought one.
As long as the Wu Brothers weren't out of their minds, they wouldn't dare to make a move here.
As for whether any further conflicts would erupt between the three major super forces after returning,
that wasn't a matter they should worry about.
When that time truly arrived, naturally the Great Luo Immortal King would handle it.
After a little while longer,
the vortex passage in the sky began to slowly close, and soon completely disappeared.
Zhang Yuhe quietly unfolded the Space Law and probed toward mid-air.
He found that the surrounding space had completely returned to its original state.
He could no longer sense any abnormalities.
Clearly,
the Taixu Secret Realm had already merged into a spatial rift, having long since drifted off to who knows where.
Seeing that the spatial passage was completely closed, Cheng Yuanshan and the others remained silent.
Although Long Aotian of the Divine Beast Sect still hadn't returned until the very end,
their two major Sects weren't actually much better off either.
Over three thousand of their people had also vanished along with the Secret Realm.
These people were all elite forces within the two major Sects!
Yet, in pursuit of Opportunity and to walk further along the Immortal Dao,
they had no choice but to enter the Secret Realm to take risks.
However, when Cheng Yuanshan looked back at the remaining people, he nodded in satisfaction once more.
The result of this opening of the Taixu Secret Realm was considered relatively normal.
The lost personnel had just barely exceeded half.
Compared to previous openings of the Secret Realm, this kind of loss was probably considered relatively good.
Once during a Secret Realm opening, due to an accidental spatial riot inside the Secret Realm,
the number of people who finally came out from the two major Sects was left at only a few hundred.
In contrast to Cheng Yuanshan's somewhat satisfied expression,
the expressions of the Wu Brothers were ashen.
Now that the Secret Realm was completely closed, yet Long Aotian still hadn't returned,
that meant Long Aotian would never be able to come back.
Although his soul lamp was still burning,
now that the Taixu Secret Realm had completely merged into the Void Realm,
no one currently had the capability to fish Long Aotian out from the Taixu Secret Realm.
Even if a Dao Ancestor Emperor made a move, they wouldn't be able to fish a person back from the hazy Void Realm.
With an ashen face, Wu Tianer asked Wu Tianyi at a loss,
"Big Brother, what should we do now?"
Wu Tianyi was also extremely helpless.
Things had reached this point, and he didn't know what the best course of action was either.
After quite a long while, he slowly said,
"Let's report this to the Sect Master first and see how the Sect Master wants to handle it."
After saying this, he immediately took out the Immortal Transmission Mirror.
Long Yuanguang's projection quickly appeared on the Immortal Transmission Mirror.
"Reporting to the Sect Master…"
Wu Tianyi roughly recounted the course of events.
In a place far away from here,
Divine Beast Immortal City.
Long Yuanguang sat cross-legged in a certain grand hall.
Upon hearing Wu Tianyi's transmission, he was completely stunned.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! How could Aotian be trapped in the Secret Realm?"
Thinking that his precious son had actually failed to return from the Taixu Secret Realm,
Long Yuanguang muttered with a gloomy expression,
"Someone must have framed Aotian."
Thinking of this,
he immediately transmitted a message to Wu Tianyi, saying,
"Keep all the Cultivators who came out from the Taixu Secret Realm behind. Not a single one is allowed to leave; I am coming over right away."
Thinking that his precious son had actually failed to return from the Secret Realm,
Long Yuanguang's anger burned within him.
He immediately concluded that someone must have framed him.
Otherwise,
why could other people come out from the Secret Realm, yet Long Aotian couldn't return?
You must know,
Long Aotian carried all kinds of powerful trump cards on his body.
Even if a Great Luo Immortal King made a move, they wouldn't necessarily be able to keep him behind.
Therefore, Long Yuanguang believed
that the Golden Immortal Cultivators who entered the Secret Realm together must have launched a sneak attack in secret.
Otherwise, given Long Aotian's strength,
there was no reason he wouldn't be able to return.
"Hmph! I must find the person who framed my son, even if it means slaughtering everyone and searching their souls without hesitation!"
Long Yuanguang let out a cold snort.
Then, he soared into the air, his figure swiftly flashing out of the grand hall as he flew toward the distance.
