A mortal who has been a god for eight hundred years takes Han Li as his disciple!

Upon returning to the Star Palace in the Chaotic Star Sea, the first thing Zhao Changsheng did upon his return was to inquire about Wen Qing.

In the Star Palace, is there any Void Crystal, the necessary material for a long-distance teleportation array?

"If we had this material, the Star Palace would have already set up many more teleportation arrays to the Outer Sea. This material has been extinct since ancient times. Moreover, when the Star Palace set up all the teleportation arrays to the Outer Sea, the Void Crystals and many other materials came from the Great Jin Immortal Cultivation World."

Although Zhao Changsheng had expected this answer, he was still extremely disappointed, and his face turned rather ugly.

"Are you perhaps planning to set up a long-distance teleportation array? Where do you intend to go?"

Seeing Zhao Changsheng's change in expression, Wen Qing became worried and pressed him for details.

Now that their relationship has improved considerably, they've naturally become bolder.

"Do you remember what I told you before about the ancient demon sealed in the Fallen Demon Valley of the Tiannan Immortal Cultivation World? Although the ancient demon has now been killed by me and another fellow Daoist, the teleportation array was completely destroyed in the process, and there is no possibility of repairing it. The most lacking thing to set up this kind of long-distance teleportation array is void crystals."

"Without the Void Crystal, it would be impossible to set up this teleportation array, and thus impossible to safely enter the Fallen Demon Valley. Although the teleportation array is not the only way to enter the Fallen Demon Valley, other methods are too dangerous. Even for a Nascent Soul cultivator like myself, it would be very difficult to enter safely."

Zhao Changsheng briefly recounted what had happened outside the Fallen Demon Valley.

After listening to Zhao Changsheng's explanation, Wen Qing's face showed a relieved expression.

"I see. Then I'm afraid I can't help you. Even if you rally the entire Chaotic Star Sea, it will be very difficult, if not impossible, to obtain Void Crystals. But if you want to go to the Great Jin Immortal Cultivation World, I can help you."

Wen Qing's words made Zhao Changsheng shake his head and laugh, his tone becoming much gentler.

"I don't need your help with that. If I wanted to go, I could find a way. I could just fly there. There's a grassland in between. Although there are two tribes on that grassland, each of them is quite strong, but they're not enough to pose any threat to me. If I went there, they would be too busy avoiding me to even think about provoking me."

"Moreover, another fellow cultivator from the Great Jin cultivation world has already gone. Whether we can obtain this Void Crystal depends on luck."

"Did you come back for something else?"

After Zhao Changsheng finished speaking, Wen Qing also realized what was going on.

"You really do understand me. I do have other things to attend to, and I need your help to invite someone. I need that person to come to the Star Palace as quickly as possible."

He nodded and then explained the purpose of his visit.

"Who is it?"

"If the Supreme Elder of Qingyang Sect is unwilling to come, the Sect Leader of Qingyang Sect can also come. In any case, any Nascent Soul cultivator from Qingyang Sect will suffice."

As soon as Zhao Changsheng finished mentioning the people he was inviting, a look of surprise involuntarily appeared on Wen Qing's captivating face.

Because she had no idea that Zhao Changsheng was actually going to invite a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Qingyang Sect.

But she didn't refuse; she agreed immediately.

"no problem."

"Alright, I'll wait then. By the way, what's the situation in the Chaotic Star Sea? Have the demon race made any moves?"

Zhao Changsheng was satisfied, but at the same time he asked about the situation in the Chaotic Star Sea. Now he was not only the number one person in the Tiannan cultivation world, but also the number one person in the Chaotic Star Sea.

Naturally, we should be concerned about the current situation of this chaotic star sea.

"Nothing much. It's just that the demon race destroyed a lot of teleportation arrays, making it a bit difficult to connect the inner and outer star seas. Other than that, there's nothing too serious. As for the inner star sea, with you in charge of the Star Palace, who would dare to be presumptuous? Even the major sects of the righteous and demonic paths have sent people to deliver many good things to the Star Palace."

Wen Qing smiled and explained the current situation of the Inner Star Sea and the Outer Star Sea.

Clearly, they were very satisfied and pleased with the situation in the Inner Star Sea.

"That's good. As long as nothing serious happens, that's fine. If something does happen, I'll have to step in and take care of it. It'll be a good opportunity to stretch my muscles."

Zhao Changsheng nodded slightly, quite satisfied.

"Alright, I'll go into seclusion and rest for a while. Once the people from Qingyang Sect arrive, notify me immediately. I have something to ask them."

Zhao Changsheng then gave further instructions.

After all, this task is related to whether or not the teleportation array outside the Fallen Demon Valley can be set up.

Therefore, absolutely no mistakes can be made.

If you can't complete the Soul Crying Beast quest, then you'll have to choose other quests.

Completing the other tasks would be extremely difficult, and even Zhao Changsheng wasn't very confident.

"no problem."

Wen Qing naturally wouldn't refuse Zhao Changsheng's repeated instructions.

Afterwards, Zhao Changsheng went to the secluded cultivation place of the Star Palace to recover.

Although Wen Qing didn't understand why Zhao Changsheng wanted to invite the Nascent Soul cultivators from Qingyang Sect, he still immediately sent the elders of Xinggong to invite them.

If the other party arrives at the Star Palace at top speed but disagrees, say that it is Zhao Changsheng's order.

If Zhao Changsheng is kept waiting, then Zhao Changsheng will have no choice but to pay him a visit in person.

Although the elders sent by Wen Qing were shocked as to why Zhao Changsheng had invited a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Qingyang Sect, they still obeyed orders and went to the sect.

……

In just half a month, the elders of the Star Palace brought over the sect leader of the Qingyang Sect.

Upon hearing that it was Zhao Changsheng's order, the other party did not refuse at all, and arranged everything inside the gate before following the elders of the Star Palace to the Star Palace as quickly as possible.

After all, he dared not, and could not, offend Zhao Changsheng.

Most importantly, they couldn't afford to offend Zhao Changsheng, because if they did, the entire sect would cease to exist.

Just as the elders of Qingyang Sect and Xinggong were about to arrive at Xinggong, Wen Qing used a sound transmission talisman to notify Zhao Changsheng, who was in seclusion recovering.

After receiving the telepathic message, Zhao Changsheng emerged from seclusion and waited for the other party in the VIP hall of the Star Palace.

Beside him sat Wen Qing, the Holy Lord of the Star Palace.

……

Before long, the Qingyang Sect Master, brought by the elders of the Star Palace, stepped into the main hall.

Upon entering the main hall, the other party did not hesitate at all and bowed to Zhao Changsheng and Wen Qing.

At the same time, the elder of the Star Palace also bowed.

"This junior, the sect leader of Qingyang Sect, pays respects to Senior Zhao and greets the Holy Lord."

"Greetings, senior. Greetings, Holy Lord."

"Alright, no need for formalities. Please have a seat. As for you, you may leave now. I have a few questions to ask the Qingyang Sect Master."

Zhao Changsheng gestured for the Qingyang Sect Master to sit down, while the Xinggong Elder dismissed his men.

There was no politeness whatsoever; on the contrary, it carried an air of superiority.

However, neither the Qingyang Sect Master nor the Star Palace Elder dared to harbor resentment or get angry, otherwise they would die without even knowing how they died.

"Yes, sir. Thank you, senior."

"This junior takes his leave."

And so, the two who had just entered the hall took a seat, while the other left.

The sect leader of Qingyang Sect was a man in his thirties or forties. He was quite handsome, but he exuded a cold and unsettling aura. He was a cultivator at the peak of the early Nascent Soul stage.

"May I ask what brings you here, senior?"

This was the biggest question that the Qingyang Sect Master had been pondering all the way, and it was also the question that had kept him trembling with fear the entire time.

He really didn't understand why Zhao Changsheng would invite him, the leader of the Qingyang Sect, for anything.

Moreover, unlike their Qingyang Sect, they did not offend Zhao Changsheng.

Otherwise, we could just send the Star Palace Elders to wipe out the entire clan.

Such things have happened many times in the Chaotic Star Sea, and they are already used to it.

"I've heard that your sect possesses a strange beast, which is neither a spirit beast nor a spirit insect, nor a ghost, but a strange beast called the Soul-Crying Beast, is that correct?"

Zhao Changsheng gave a very direct answer to the Qingyang Sect Master's question, asking directly whether there were any Soul-Crying Beasts.

The Qingyang Sect Master was quite surprised by Zhao Changsheng's question. He really hadn't expected Zhao Changsheng to be so interested in the Soul-Crying Beast.

"What you say is true, senior. Our sect does indeed have a method for cultivating a creature called the Soul-Crying Beast. But unfortunately, in the past ten thousand years, the Northern Gate has only cultivated two Soul-Crying Beasts, and both of them have perished. We are currently cultivating a third one, but it will take nearly a hundred years to cultivate. Moreover, even if it is cultivated, it will not be considered a success. It needs to continuously devour Yin spirits and ghosts to advance to its complete form before it can be considered a success."

The Qingyang Sect Master patiently explained, fearing that if he said a single wrong word, Zhao Changsheng would wipe out his entire sect.

Upon hearing the timeframe given by the Qingyang Sect Master, Zhao Changsheng frowned, clearly displeased. This made the Qingyang Sect Master even more uneasy, fearing that he might be silenced at any moment.

"Then, is there a faster way?"

Zhao Changsheng paid no attention to the Qingyang Sect Master's concerns and instead pressed for details, as he didn't have much time to wait.

Furthermore, he believed that Qingyang Sect must have a faster method.

"What you say is right, senior. There is indeed a faster way, but... however, the required materials are somewhat special. It requires a material called Soul Crystal, which disappeared thousands of years ago, and our sect has not found a single piece to this day. If we could have enough Soul Crystals, we could speed up the cultivation of this Crying Soul Beast."

The Qingyang Sect Master immediately offered a solution, which made Zhao Changsheng's eyes light up, even revealing a hint of surprise.

"Soul Crystal? Is this what you mean by Soul Crystal?"

Zhao Changsheng immediately took out the Soul Crystal he had obtained in the Netherworld.

As soon as he took it out, the Qingyang Sect Master's eyes lit up when he saw the Soul Crystal in Zhao Changsheng's hand, and he immediately nodded with great certainty.

"That's right, it's this Soul Crystal."
