Ch 321: The Three Immortals’ Secret
“I, I…” Blue Sword didn’t expect Li Hanzhou to be so unyielding.
“I can tell you some other things. I beg you to take me to Ascension.” Blue Sword’s tone softened at this moment.
He no longer had the arrogant demeanor from before.
“That depends on whether what you say is valuable. If it’s not valuable, I’m not interested in taking you,” Li Hanzhou said nonchalantly.
“It’s definitely valuable. I know a lot of things. Let me think.” Blue Sword pondered for a moment, then said to Li Hanzhou: “I’ll tell you, the three immortals who originally descended to the Lower Realm were very strong, each of them reaching the Nascent Soul Stage in cultivation level. Although in the Immortal Realm, the Nascent Soul Stage isn’t considered a top expert, in the Profound Heaven Realm, the Nascent Soul Stage is an absolute fighting force.”
“Nascent Soul Stage?”
Li Hanzhou wasn’t too surprised. As the Daoist Sect Successor, he naturally knew about this Realm. Not to mention that in his past life on Blue Star, there were many such online novels, so he was very familiar with cultivation Realms. However, Li Hanzhou was still slightly surprised.
When he had entered the Immortal Realm before, he had only just barely reached Foundation Establishment.
He was still very far from the Nascent Soul Stage; one could even say that a Nascent Soul Stage strong person could kill him with a breath.
There was even a Golden Core Stage in between.
If the three descending immortals were all Nascent Soul Stage Experts, how strong was the Old Daoist Priest? He could actually fight three Nascent Soul Stage cultivators alone and kill them all.
“My Master and the other two were sent down with a Task. Unexpectedly, they encountered you upon arrival,” Blue Sword said to Li Hanzhou. “I guess those above didn’t expect that someone in the Lower Realm would refuse the temptation of Ascension and cultivate to the Half-step Divine Transformation Realm.”
“Half-step Divine Transformation!”
Li Hanzhou suddenly understood. He didn’t expect the Old Daoist Priest to be such a powerful figure.
No wonder he could fight three Nascent Soul Stage cultivators alone.
“What happened after that?”
Li Hanzhou wanted to know what happened next. Emperor Yu Yang’s records didn’t mention anything further.
“After that?”
“After that, the three Masters died in battle, but Li Qingfeng was also injured and left,” Blue Sword continued. “But after Li Qingfeng left, a mysterious person arrived at the Northern Pass.”
“Who?”
Li Hanzhou pressed.
“Hehe, I’ll tell you, but can you take me to Ascension?”
Blue Sword smiled and made his Request to Li Hanzhou.
“I can consider it.” Li Hanzhou didn’t agree, but he didn’t deny it either. To Blue Sword, this was as good as an agreement.
“Actually, Nascent Soul Stage cultivators aren’t that easy to kill.”
Blue Sword continued, “Although Li Qingfeng killed the physical bodies of the three Masters, the Nascent Souls of two of them survived.”
“Although Li Qingfeng was at the Half-step Divine Transformation Realm, the three Masters possessed Immortal Treasures and Spirit Artifacts. Their equipment was completely different classes. Therefore, even a Half-step Divine Transformation cultivator couldn’t take advantage against three Nascent Soul cultivators with Immortal Treasures. Otherwise, Li Qingfeng wouldn’t have left in such a hurry without carefully checking.”
“So after Li Qingfeng left, someone came. That person’s cultivation level wasn’t high, barely reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage,” Blue Sword recalled. “He discovered the Nascent Souls and took them away. The owner of one Nascent Soul was named Lin Fang, a demonic cultivator in the Immortal Realm. The person who took him away originally wanted to search for other things, but then another person came.”
“Who?”
Li Hanzhou couldn’t guess who the first person was.
After all, it was hundreds of years ago, and he couldn’t possibly know them.
“An Elderly Person.”
Blue Sword said, “This Elderly Person was very strange. His cultivation level wasn’t high, but he gave off a very special feeling. Two Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators were protecting him, and he took away the other Nascent Soul and one of the Storage Rings.”
“Why weren’t you taken away?” Li Hanzhou was Curious.
This sword was a Spirit Artifact. No one took it?
“Because I hid.”
Blue Sword chuckled. “I didn’t want to be taken away. Neither the person who took Lin Fang nor the Elderly Person seemed capable of Ascension. I need to find someone who can take me to Ascension. I originally hoped Li Qingfeng would take me, but he left in a hurry. And now I’ve met you.”
“I’m not Li Qingfeng.”
Li Hanzhou shook his head.
“But your Soul tastes the same. Oh well, it doesn’t matter.” Blue Sword said, “As long as you can take me back to Ascension.”
Li Hanzhou smiled faintly. He had been hoping his Disciples would take him to Ascension.
“Tell me, what is the greatest Crisis in the Tianxuan Realm?” Li Hanzhou continued to ask.
“The greatest Crisis is that your Tianxuan Realm is being targeted.”
Blue Sword regained his confident tone. “Being targeted by those above isn’t a good thing.”
“What do you mean?”
Li Hanzhou asked with furrowed brows.
“The vast Heaven and Earth is immensely huge, containing countless great worlds and countless small worlds. The Tianxuan Realm is just one of these small worlds, and countless such small worlds exist. Your Tianxuan Realm is just a grain of sand among countless grains of sand. Such a small grain is so insignificant that no one would even glance at it. Even the Power controlling your small world wouldn’t have the time to look at you.”
“But in the Immortal Realm, three Genius individuals rose to prominence. These three individuals rose incredibly fast, becoming Overlords in the Immortal Realm. Later, after some investigation, it was discovered that the origins of these three individuals were all from your Tianxuan Realm.”
“So your Tianxuan Realm is being targeted. After all, in ten thousand small worlds, the probability of one producing a Divine Transformation cultivator is already quite good. But your Tianxuan Realm, a small world, produced three beings who surpassed Divine Transformation. Such a probability would naturally make people Curious as to why.”
“The three Masters were sent down to investigate this matter.”
“If the three of them don’t return for a long time, those above will definitely send stronger people down. At that time, the Tianxuan Realm will be even more dangerous. Even Li Qingfeng might not be able to protect it.”
Blue Sword’s words gave Li Hanzhou a sense of urgency.
He never expected that there was such a matter.
“When will those above approximately arrive?” Li Hanzhou quickly asked.
“Probably within a hundred years,” Blue Sword mused. “I’m not entirely sure. I only know that there are limitations on those descending from above. They can’t come down whenever they want; otherwise, the Order of the world would be in chaos.”
