Chapter 2239: Chapter 2239: Emerging from Seclusion


Yuantong Immortal Venerable couldn’t help but feel a bit envious of Wuxia Immortal Venerable, but it wasn’t jealousy. Yuantong Immortal Venerable has a decent nature and a general sense of justice. He was quite happy for Wuxia stepping into the Immortal Venerable Realm.


On the way back, Yuantong Immortal Venerable asked Wuxia Venerable about her plans. Wuxia Immortal Venerable just said she had no other plans for now and would continue to administer the Wuxia City area.


Hearing Wuxia Immortal Venerable say this, Yuantong Immortal Venerable was also delighted. With Wuxia remaining in Wuxia City, his influence would undoubtedly increase significantly. If Wuxia Immortal Venerable left the area he controlled, even if he could rely on his relationship with Wuxia to seek help on certain matters, it would not compare to having Wuxia staying in his territory.


Wuxia had already stepped into the Immortal Venerable Realm and could manage an Immortal Venerable territory herself, just like Yuantong Immortal Venerable. Once Wuxia Immortal Venerable discussed with Wu Guo Heavenly Lord, Wu Guo Heavenly Lord would definitely agree.


However, Wuxia Immortal Venerable temporarily did not want to develop her own Immortal Venerable territory. Managing Wuxia City’s area was enough for her. Even if she only managed Wuxia City, being in the Immortal Venerable Realm, she was far beyond comparison to other Shen Zhou Heavenly Monarchs.


Yuantong Immortal Venerable returned to his palace, while Wuxia Immortal Venerable went back to Wuxia City.


When Wuxia Immortal Venerable returned to Wuxia City, Jing Yan was still in seclusion. Wuxia Immortal Venerable had left Wuxia City for a relatively short time, only about a hundred years in total.


Over six thousand years after Wuxia Immortal Venerable acquired the Sky Suppressing Seal and returned to Wuxia City, Jing Yan, who was in seclusion painstakingly cultivating the Fifth Level of the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique, had reached a critical juncture in its mastery.


Jing Yan had been in seclusion cultivating the Fifth Level of the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique for over thirty-six or thirty-seven thousand years.


At this time, his cultivation of the Fifth Level of the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique was at the critical point, just one step away from fully mastering this extremely domineering Immortal Venerable Technique.


Throughout the thirty thousand years of cultivation, Jing Yan did not encounter any major difficulties. With the assistance of resources like the Netherworld Crystal Stone, any obstacles could be overcome with some time. However, the final critical point truly blocked Jing Yan’s progress.


In fact, at this critical point, Jing Yan had already spent thousands of years. During these thousands of years, Jing Yan devoted nearly all his thoughts to figuring out how to take the final step.


Immortal Venerable level techniques are indeed not so easily mastered.


Jing Yan mastered the Thunder Origin through a direct inheritance from the Thunder Emperor, which is fundamentally different from cultivating a technique or an immortal art.


“Open!”


On this day, seated in the room, Jing Yan uttered a low shout.


With him as the center, the surrounding space suddenly darkened. If one observed closely, they would see the space around Jing Yan in a state of stillness. In this space, whether nature’s spiritual energy or various laws seemed to be frozen. A powerful cultivator would likely see something resembling a black seal faintly appearing and disappearing around Jing Yan.


Soon, an unusual expression appeared on Jing Yan’s face. He opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath.


“Succeeded!” Jing Yan shifted his gaze, observing the sealed space around him.


“Quite lucky! I thought I would need to absorb the energy of the Netherworld Heart to break through, but now I can save it,” Jing Yan murmured.


Not being able to fully master the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique had given Jing Yan thoughts of using the Netherworld Heart. In the Yellow Spring Cave, Jing Yan used one Netherworld Heart, fully aware of its effects and value. Thus, unless necessary, Jing Yan was reluctant to waste it.


Currently, he had only three Netherworld Hearts left. These items diminish with use, and resources like Black Crystal Stone can’t be used to buy more. Moreover, Jing Yan felt it might be difficult for him to get another chance to enter the Yellow Spring Cave. Even if he could enter again, who knows how long it would be before the Netherworld Map appeared again?


“The Fifth Level of the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique is truly domineering.”


“Sealing space, suppressing and killing everything.”


“Just with this move alone, there might not be many Immortal Rhythm Cultivators who could withstand it without dying. Many Immortal Venerable level experts would probably have a headache facing me wielding the Fifth Level of the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique,” Jing Yan squinted his eyes.


The Fifth Level of the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique combined with the Thunder Light Shining—if a somewhat weaker Immortal Venerable encountered these two moves from Jing Yan, they would likely have no escape.


Take Black River Heavenly Monarch as an example; he is harder to kill than many Immortals, but if he faced Jing Yan now, a moment of carelessness might lead to his demise.


After familiarizing himself with the power of the Fifth Level of the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique, Jing Yan left the room to meet with Wuxia Immortal Venerable.


Having fully mastered the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique, Jing Yan planned to prepare to head to Nightmare City to seek a Divine Soul Attack Technique. Before leaving, he naturally had to bid farewell to Wuxia.


“Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, you have finally come out of seclusion? This seclusion lasted over thirty thousand years.” Wuxia Immortal Venerable, upon seeing Jing Yan, stood up quickly and said with a smile.


“For us, a few thousand years is but a fleeting moment in life,” Jing Yan smiled back.


“Yes, you’re right. For people like us, a single seclusion lasting millions of years is normal. Especially when at the Immortal Rhythm Peak, striving to reach the Immortal Venerable Realm, some may even spend tens of millions of years in one seclusion,” Wuxia Immortal Venerable smiled charmingly.


“Oh?”


“Wuxia Heavenly Monarch, you broke through?” Jing Yan’s gaze fell on Wuxia.


Although Wuxia Immortal Venerable did not unleash her divine power in front of Jing Yan, his divine soul body was pure and unmatched, providing him with unmatched perception capabilities compared to other Immortals. He sensed Wuxia’s change but could not pinpoint that she had stepped into the Immortal Venerable Realm.


“Yes, I stepped into the Immortal Venerable Realm six thousand years ago. I’ve entered the Immortal Venerable Tower and received the Immortal Venerable Seal, the Sky Suppressing Seal,” Wuxia Immortal Venerable replied.


She hid nothing from Jing Yan. Without his help, she wouldn’t have stepped into the Immortal Venerable Realm.


“Congratulations to Wuxia Immortal Venerable!” Jing Yan bowed slightly with his hands.


“If it weren’t for you, how could I have stepped into the Immortal Venerable Realm? Jing Yan, I really thank you.” Wuxia Immortal Venerable approached Jing Yan and surprisingly extended her hand to hold his.


Her alluring eyes were like silk.


Even Jing Yan found his breath slightly rushed at that moment. Wuxia Immortal Venerable’s beauty could crown an entire Immortal Domain, and having stepped into the Immortal Venerable Realm, her allure was exceptionally great. In Faro Heaven, the number of cultivators desiring Wuxia Immortal Venerable was innumerable.


“Wuxia Immortal Venerable, you…” Jing Yan’s body slightly tensed.
