Chapter 190: Revisiting the old place, the immortal guides

During the time that Chu Zheng was in seclusion, Geng Yiyang had already coordinated all the forces under the Taixuan Holy Land.

There is only a month left before the six-month deadline set by the Immortal Alliance.

As the influence of Chu Zheng continues to expand, the vassal forces of Taixuan Holy Land are no longer a minority. In terms of influence, it has become a veritable holy land.

Before leaving, Chu Zheng went to Taixuan City and took away a batch of antiques from the Song family in the Southern Territory. At the same time, he helped them open a secret realm of inheritance.

The Southern Territory Song family has been helping Chu Zheng secretly search for some ancient fragments. It has been some time now and they have accumulated quite a few.

After getting this batch of fragments, Chu Zheng carefully distinguished them. Most of them were fragments of magic weapons. Top-grade magic weapons were rare, and there was no Tongxuan spiritual treasure at all.

Fragments that can be easily found are generally not of high value. Fragments of high-level spiritual treasures are very likely to be collected by someone. Although it is extremely difficult to refine the materials again, there are still people who will do it.

After all, some of the monks' time is not valuable.

Chu Zheng did not invite the elders of Taixuan to accompany him. He handed in a visiting card first, and then he went alone with Bai Nian, driving a chariot, and set off for Huanling City.

He has two Tongxuan magic treasures, the Lihuo Gun and the Liuyun Umbrella, on him. Ordinary Tongxuan fake immortals cannot threaten him, so there is no need to trouble those elders anymore.

They are busy with many things at the moment, and there is no need to waste their time on such trivial matters.

…………

…………

Chu Zheng did not deliberately speed up, and it took him several days of travel before he arrived at the Huanling Mountains.

Due to many successive changes, the dispute between the Huanling Sect and the Yeguang Pavilion had to be left unresolved. Even after Ling Qi's death, the Taixu Holy Land had no time to spare any new personnel to mediate.

In front of Huanling City, a group of more than ten people were waiting at the door.

The Huanling City today was different from what Chu Zheng had remembered. It was very quiet, with almost no sound coming out. It was like a dead city.

Chu Zheng could feel a lot of fluctuations of life energy. There were still a large number of mortal cultivators in the city, but they just stayed in the pavilions and palaces and did not show up.

Apparently they had been warned in advance and had temporarily stopped all activities.

Chu Zheng opened his spiritual eyes and scanned the area, then he knew the identities of the people in front of the city gate.

The Grand Elder, Sect Master, and a group of inner sect elders of the Huanling Sect.

In the previous battle outside the domain, the Huanling Sect also participated, but they were too insignificant and mixed in with the armies of other sects. In addition, Chu Zheng had never seen these people before, so they did not attract his attention at the time.

After a moment, Chu Zheng's gaze rested on one of the young men.

The man looked to be in his early twenties, dressed in a sky blue robe, with a tall figure, a full forehead, and a refined temperament.

Qin Feng.

This was the first immortal cultivator Chu Zheng had ever seen in his life.

Back then, it was he who brought Song Lingqing back home, and that was the starting point of all the disputes.

After not seeing each other for several years, Qin Feng has already entered the Divine Infant stage. With his aptitude of a mid-grade immortal bone, it is not easy to reach this stage.

Looking at Chu Zheng on the chariot, Qin Feng looked a little dazed. He had never thought that he would meet Chu Zheng under such circumstances just a few years later.

When they first met, Chu Zheng left some impression on him, and he even felt sorry for him at that time.

Who could have imagined that such a huge change would happen to Chu Zheng, and within a few years, he would become the master of a holy land.

Even his cultivation level has surpassed others and he has entered the stage of Divine Infant. He has also crossed the border and defeated the descendant of the Immortal King who was in the middle stage of Divine Infant.

By the time he reached the stage of Soul Condensation and Infant Transformation, he had already practiced for three hundred years, a time consumed that was almost a hundred times that of Chu Zheng. The gap between them was difficult for others to comprehend.

Among the group of people, the one with the same interesting expression was Han Yuliang.

The memory of immortal cultivators is quite good.

He also had a deep impression of Chu Zheng. In an accident that occurred in the mine, only that menial disciple survived by chance.

When the wanted bounty for Chu Zheng was flying everywhere, he happened to be seriously injured due to his forced transformation into a baby in the battle, and was in seclusion to recuperate, so he didn't know much about it.

After coming out of seclusion, the extraterritorial war followed immediately, and he had no extra time to understand these things.

Now that they met again suddenly, he was even a little overwhelmed to react.

The young man standing at the head of the crowd walked out slowly and bowed:
"Feng Qiyuan from Huanling Sect greets the Holy Lord Taixuan."

His cultivation had reached the second stage of the Divine Infant, which made him much stronger than Chu Zheng. But at this moment, he did not dare to have the slightest intention of offending.

Although Chu Zheng’s cultivation is not as good as his now, it is only a matter of time before he surpasses him.

Moreover, soon, disputes will arise outside the domain again. Although there are bans within the Cangyun Realm, Taixuan cannot openly take action against the Huanling Sect.

But outside the domain, there are not so many restrictions. Taixuan Holy Land can kill them all quietly and effortlessly.

Looking at the Fantasy City in front of him, Chu Zheng's mind was a little confused for a moment.

Previously, he was extremely repulsive to the many methods of the Huanling Sect, but looking back now, he has a different opinion.

They started a big fight for a mere top-grade immortal bone, and carefully planned a big drama, even putting the whole clan's strength into it.

Most of these actions were forced out by the Taixu Holy Land.

Is Taixu Holy Land really so short of disciples? Of course not.

Top-grade immortal bones are certainly treasures to many sects, but in the holy land, it is difficult for even the top 100 of the same generation to squeeze into the list.

But even so, once a top-grade immortal bone appears in the world, the Taixu Holy Land will still take action and use various means to force the immortal seedling to join.

From today's perspective, Chu Zheng can already see some of the reasons.

The reason why Taixu Holy Land attaches so much importance to top-grade immortal bones may be because of the example of Zhao Tingxian.

No one can be sure whether there will be a second Zhao Tingxian among these top-grade immortal bones. It is only normal to want to hold them firmly in one's own hands.

Different standpoints naturally lead to different perspectives on things.

Before leaving the Song Mansion, his thoughts were too simple, limited to the land of a few countries. The Huanling Sect was already the sky above his head. Then the holy land tore off the veil covering his eyes, and the sky above his head became higher and reached beyond the starry sky.

Vision determines the upper limit of one's pattern. After all, he is just an ordinary man and it is difficult for him to see the whole picture. As his horizons continue to broaden, many of his ideas are constantly changing.

There are some things that you will never know unless you experience them yourself.

Now, the Huanling Sect is no longer in Chu Zheng’s sight, and he has no intention of caring about the situation of the Song Mansion in the past.

It is unknown how many of these Divine Infant Elders will survive after participating in this war.

In Chu Zheng's eyes, many things are now much more important than the Huanling Sect.

"Excuse me, Lord Taixuan, what brings you here today?" Feng Qiyuan bowed slightly, with a hint of caution in his words.

"I have some personal matters to attend to. I will not join the Huanling Sect. I will stay for a while and then leave."

Chu Zheng didn't say much, gave Feng Qiyuan a reassurance, and tilted his head to look at Bai Nian.

Looking at the Huanling City in front of him, Bai Nian was a little dazed for a moment. He left in a hurry and had never stood at this angle to take a good look at this piece of land. The city that was originally so big that it seemed to be only this big now.

Chu Zheng brought Bai Nian into the city and soon returned to the small courtyard.

The lock on the gate had some rust on it.

After standing at the door for a long time, Bai Nian did not unlock the door and enter. Instead, he turned around and thanked: "Thank you, Holy Lord, that's enough."

Chu Zheng said nothing more and turned to walk out of the city.

When passing by the north of the city, Chu Zheng went back to take a look at the clinic he opened. The steps in front of the door were covered with dust and no footprints were seen. It was obvious that no one had been there for a long time.

Not only was the situation like this in front of the clinic, but also in front of the brothel, there was a thin layer of dust.

Soon, Chu Zheng and the other person arrived in front of the city gate. Feng Qiyuan accompanied them without saying a word.

In front of the city gate, Chu Zheng glanced at Feng Qiyuan and suddenly sent a message, going straight to the point:

"Regarding the matter of the Song family's top-grade immortal bone, I want to hear the whole story. Ling Qi died at my hands. If you conceal anything, you will not be able to bear the consequences."

Chu Zheng still wanted to know what the real situation was like regarding some of the things that happened before.

Feng Qiyuan was silent for a while, but chose not to hide anything. He told Song Lingqing and Xiao Yuanqing everything since the day they joined his school, no matter how big or small.

When Chu Zheng heard the news of Song Lingqing's disappearance and Xiao Yuanqing's death, he had already guessed the whole truth.

"Where is Wei Changqing now?"

Thinking of the simple-looking boy back then, Chu Zheng asked casually.

A top-grade immortal bone and a candidate for the true inheritance of Taixu Holy Land, these two identities have destined this young man to be extraordinary.

Hearing Wei Changqing's name, Feng Qiyuan was slightly surprised. He had never thought that Chu Zheng would know it so clearly, as if he knew everything.

After a slight hesitation, he told the truth:
"I have accepted him as my disciple."

Hearing this, Chu Zheng said nothing more. After a moment of silence, he returned with Bai Nian.

The relationship between the Huanling Sect and the Taixu Holy Land now seems very subtle, but it has little to do with him.

Not until the chariot in the sky completely disappeared did Feng Qiyuan let out a long sigh, his eyes looking a little complicated.

Chu Zheng originally thought that this trip was meant to cause trouble, but in the end, everything went peacefully, which made him feel relieved.

After coming to his senses, Feng Qiyuan couldn't help feeling a little unwilling.

After all, the Huanling Sect is still too weak. No matter in which aspect, it is difficult to compare with the Holy Land. This is a qualitative gap.

The most despairing thing is that this gap is almost impossible to narrow.

Unless... a monster like Chu Zheng emerges within the Huanling Sect and can rewrite the situation of Cangyun by his own strength.

…………

…………

Chu Zheng took Bai Nian without stopping and rushed straight back to Taixuan Holy Land. The journey was safe and there were no accidents.

Less than two days after returning to Taixuan, the Immortal Alliance's accurate transfer order had already reached Chu Zheng, much earlier than expected.

The content of the transfer order was very simple, with only the time and place, including a spatial coordinate located in the starry sky not far outside the Cang Yun Realm.

Three days later, they will cross the universe on their own and head to this reception point.

The true immortals of the Immortal Alliance will set up a domain gate across the starry sky here to lead them to the battlefield.

This time when leaving the world, Chu Zheng originally wanted to take Song Lingxue with him and find a new way to survive, but considering the risks were too great, he had to give up.

The Ten Thousand Realms do not allow for the two paths of immortality and martial arts. If Song Lingxue goes to the Ten Thousand Realms, she will not have an easy time. Until there is a better way out, the Martial Palace is the best choice.

At least, there are more complete methods of practice and a world where practice can be normal.

The dispute over the orthodox doctrine is too bloody and cruel. Chu Zheng's current strength is not enough to support Song Lingxue in the world.

He needs time, and a long time.

…………

…………

Three days passed in a flash.

At dawn, more than a hundred flying boats took off from the Taixuan Holy Land, with star-shaped flags and lightning spears on them, covering the sky and the sun.

The same scene happened in the four regions of Cang Yun.

Chu Zheng followed Geng Yiyang's side. This was his special instruction. The situation outside the domain was chaotic and no one could predict the next change.

The closer he was, the more confident he would be in sending Chu Zheng away.

In fact, if it weren’t for the Immortal Alliance, Geng Yiyang even wanted to keep Chu Zheng in the Cangyun Realm and not get involved in this dispute.

However, Chu Zheng's cultivation level improved too rapidly, and he was involved in a battle of this level so quickly.

In this regard, Geng Yiyang could only sigh at the fate. He had lived for tens of thousands of years and had never experienced a foreign war. However, in the short few years since he had known Chu Zheng, he had already participated in two wars.

The coordinates given by the Immortal Alliance were not far from the Cangyun Realm. In addition, with the help of many Immortal Tribulation Realm cultivators who were able to move through space, many warships had arrived after less than two days of sailing.

A huge illusory light gate stands under the starry sky, absorbing the starlight from all around, as if it is rooted in the universe and cannot be shaken.

In front of the light gate, there stood quietly a middle-aged woman in palace dress, with a voluptuous figure, a dignified and elegant demeanor, and an immortal aura all over her body. At this moment, her face was solemn and a bit cold.

Several saints walked out of the flying boat and were about to ask questions when the middle-aged woman had already spoken first:
"The other great realms have already headed for the battlefield. Cang Yun is the last one, so get on the road as soon as possible."

Seeing this, the several saints could only hurriedly salute, return to their respective flying boats, and enter the light gate one after another.

After passing through the gate, there is a long road, which is hazy and unclear.

Chu Zheng slowly closed his eyes. He did not look at the strange sight in the space channel. He calmed his mind and prepared to face the upcoming war.

On the road, the passage of time seemed to have become much slower.

I don’t know how much time passed before the road finally came to an end.

When Chu Zheng opened his eyes again, he was surrounded by an extremely unfamiliar starry sky, and behind him was also a huge illusory light gate.

After all the flying boats flew out, the light gate slowly dissipated.

Chu Zheng stood up, looked around, and when he saw the starry sky not far away, he was stunned for a moment.

A huge barrier formed by hundreds of stars stretches under the starry sky dome.

The thick array patterns covered the entire huge pass, creating a huge fluctuation of spiritual energy in the dead silent universe.
