Chapter 709 - 382: Ghost Disaster
Chapter 709: Chapter 382: Ghost Disaster
Ever since the Ghost Immortal, transformed from Bao Ling Saint Mother, emerged, the Earth Immortal Realm has become extremely dangerous.
In any case, Li Qian seldom went out anymore.
He was even more reluctant to let the disciples of the Yuhua Immortal Palace enter the Earth Immortal Realm.
At first, the Ghost Immortal lurked around the edges of the Heavenly Dao Domain, roaring and devouring anyone it saw...
A You also frequently kept vigil at the boundary of the Heavenly Dao Domain, watching her mother...
Although her mother no longer recognized her, she didn’t care... She was just happy to see her mother every day.
The Immortal Court’s Immortal Golden Immortals all hid within the Heavenly Dao Domain, not daring to come out.
Though they didn’t know why this was happening, they were grateful to have survived.
Originally, they thought they were doomed.
As time went on, the Ghost Immortal’s encircling of the Heavenly Dao Domain became less frequent.
But whenever someone dared to venture out of the Heavenly Dao Domain, this Ghost Immortal would emerge suddenly and launch an attack...
Li Qian had ventured out a few times and found that the Divine Witch Forbidden Land had not changed much... It was clear that this Ghost Immortal was not attacking ordinary beings in the Earth Immortal Realm.
Piecing together various information, it seemed that the Ghost Immortal’s target was likely Immortal Golden Immortals, or beings who had comprehended the Law...
After all, this Ghost Immortal was set up by the Chaos Organization in the Divine Witch Forbidden Land to harvest for the Unity Tribulation.
In this way, many years passed.
Li Qian essentially determined that the Ghost Immortal dared not enter the Heavenly Dao Domain, so he shifted his focus away from the Ghost Immortal created by Bao Ling Saint Mother.
His cultivation advancement had been slow these years, and he felt it necessary to clear out the Ghostly Land again, enhancing the laws like Winter Chill.
Moreover, from various sources, the Hell Ghost Clan had shown no signs of activity.
He couldn’t just watch out for the Hell Ghost Clan and not clear out the Ghostly Land, right?
This was his best shortcut for rapidly increasing his power.
Thus, Li Qian left Chenzhong Cave Heaven and headed to other layers to clear out the Ghostly Land.
....
The Thirty-Three Heavens.
A mysterious place, known as the Ghost Tomb.
On the Immortal Court’s wanted list, the Shenxiao Secret Society couldn’t even break into the top ten.
But the Ghost Tomb consistently held the third spot on the wanted list.
The Ghost Tomb was intricately linked to the Hell Ghost Clan.
And every time the Unity Tribulation occurred, the Ghostly Land would appear, and the Ghost Tomb was always seen...
However, the Ghost Tomb was so deeply hidden that it rarely surfaced outside of Unity Tribulation, making it difficult for the Immortal Court to find traces of this organization despite the perennial bounty.
The main base of the Ghost Tomb was in the Thirty-Three Heavens, right under the Immortal Court’s nose.
Inside the Secret Realm of the Ghost Tomb.
Three fearsome ghostly figures sat on thrones, with numerous black-robed figures kneeling below them.
The aura from these people was reeking with ghostly energy, their cultivation techniques clearly belonging to the ghostly path.
"How’s the arrangement going?"
Leading the group, a Hell Ghost Clan member spoke in a deep voice.
"Sir, we have contacted the forces of the Demon Cave, Demon City, and Dark Witch; they will cooperate with us to forcibly open Earth Immortal City."
One of the kneeling black-robed figures quickly replied respectfully.
"It must be done as soon as possible; it’s been delayed too long already."
The Hell Ghost Clan member said.
"Sir, there’s another matter. The Qian Yuan from the Yuhua Immortal Sect has appeared again, disrupting the Ghost Realm in the Thirty-First Heaven."
The black-robed figure quickly added.
"This one is connected to the Ji Family and is a native of this land, posing a great threat to our Ghost Clan... Since he’s in the Thirty-First Heaven destroying the Ghostly Land... let’s choose to open the Earth Immortal City in the Thirty-First Heaven this time."
The leading Hell Ghost Clan member said.
"Sir... if we open the Earth Immortal City in the Thirty-First Heaven, I’m afraid we won’t be able to catch the Immortal Court off guard."
The black-robed figure said.
After some discussion among the three Hell Ghost Clan members, they ultimately decided to open the Earth Immortal City in the Thirty-Three Heavens.
Even though Qian Yuan posed a significant threat... the main target this time was the Immortal Court.
Once the Immortal Court was dealt with, the threat of a single Qian Yuan would no longer be of consequence.
Moreover, Qian Yuan’s link to the Ji Family meant it was best left alone for now, lest the Ji Family truly get involved, adding unpredictability.
Also, they had evaluated Qian Yuan’s speed in clearing the Ghostly Land... in the long run, it posed a great threat.
If they could conquer the Immortal Court in the short term, there wouldn’t be a big problem.
....
The Thirty-First Heaven.
Within a Ghostly Land, Li Qian was surrounded by rays of sword light, forming a unique Bell Shadow.
The twenty-three bases of the Two Forms Bell Sword Formation, damaged by the Ghost Immortal transformed from Bao Ling Saint Mother over ten years ago, took him several years to repair.
Now it had been restored to its peak state.
"It’s satisfying to clear the Ghostly Land."
Li Qian felt the Law growing stronger, feeling quite pleased.
Purely comprehending it, even with the assistance of the Immortal Device Chen Bell, was less effective now.
But directly absorbing the regional source was different.
And so, over four years passed.
One day, Li Qian suddenly received a message from White Fox’s incarnation.
Since he resided within the Ghostly Land and couldn’t return to Chenzhong Cave Heaven, he had to rely on White Fox’s incarnation for communication.
He quickly left the Ghostly Land, returned to Chenzhong Cave Heaven, and then used the transmission array to reach the Yuhua Immortal Palace, where he met with Ji Ying.
"Fellow Daoist Ji, what matter is so urgent that you sought me out?"
Li Qian asked curiously.
"According to information obtained by my Ji Family, a powerful Ghost Immortal suddenly emerged from the Earth Immortal Realm and broke into the Thirty-Three Heavens, causing the Immortal Court severe losses..."
