Chapter 243: The Confident Long Aotian

Zhang Yuhe quietly sat cross-legged on the Immortal Battleship.

There were still a few days left before the Taixu Secret Realm opened.

Moreover, the people from the other two major forces had not yet arrived.

Everyone could only wait quietly.

However, for Cultivators,

a few days was nothing.

Usually, a single session of secluded cultivation could last for thousands or tens of thousands of years.

They did not mind waiting this little bit of time.

Two days later.

A streak of light flashed from afar.

Before long, a massive Immortal Battleship appeared before everyone.

A hearty voice echoed from the Immortal Battleship.

"Haha, Brother Cheng is still one step faster."

Cheng Yuanshan stood up and said with a smile,

"We are closer, after all, so it is only normal for us to arrive first."

"I just didn't expect that even though your Chaotian Palace is so far from here, Brother Li would actually arrive faster than the Divine Beast Sect."

The ones arriving on the Immortal Battleship were indeed the group from the Chaotian Palace.

The leader was Li Chengqing, a veteran Taiyi Immortal Lord of the Chaotian Palace who also possessed a Great Perfection cultivation.

After the two Immortal Battleships drew close,

Li Chengqing soared into the air and quickly landed on Cheng Yuanshan's Immortal Battleship.

In the South Sea Immortal Realm, due to facing the pressure of the Divine Beast Sect together,

the Myriad Immortals Gate and the Chaotian Palace had naturally established a solid Alliance.

The disciples of the two major Sects would also frequently visit and interact with each other.

They were relatively familiar with one another.

Zhang Yuhe stood up and silently observed the opposing Immortal Battleship.

He saw that the Golden Immortal Cultivators from the Chaotian Palace were exactly equal in number to theirs.

There were also exactly three thousand people.

"Could it be that every time the Taixu Secret Realm opens, there are only nine thousand slots?"

"And each of the three major forces occupies three thousand slots?"

Zhang Yuhe thought to himself.

After the two major Sects met, the disciples who knew each other quickly began to chat warmly.

"Brother He, we haven't met for many years. I didn't expect you to already be at the Great Perfection cultivation."

"I have only made some progress by luck; I cannot compare to you, Brother Wu."

"Years ago, you had already comprehended the Law to the state of Minor Achievement."

"Not having seen you for so many years, your strength has probably improved significantly."

"Do you know exactly which day the Taixu Secret Realm will open? How much longer do we have to wait?"

"What is the rush, Brother He? The people from the Divine Beast Sect haven't even arrived yet."

"Without waiting for the people from the Divine Beast Sect to arrive, this Secret Realm cannot be opened."

"Hmph, the Divine Beast Sect puts on too much of an air."

"Our Chaotian Palace is even further away than them, yet we have already arrived, and they still haven't."

"Why must you get angry over such a trivial matter, Brother?"

"Hasn't the Divine Beast Sect always acted this way?"

"We just need to wait patiently. In any case, we have the Immortal Lords looking after us, so there is no need to worry about missing the timing."

"True, let's not mention them."

"I hope that entering the Taixu Secret Realm this time will allow us to find some opportunities for breakthrough. Our Lifespan is running out."

"Opportunities are a minor matter. I only hope that I won't run into the disciples of the Divine Beast Sect in the Taixu Secret Realm."

"As for opportunities and such, we will just have to leave that to fate."

...

Far away from them, a massive Immortal Battleship

was flying rapidly forward through the wilderness of the Chaos Continent.

A large number of Golden Immortal Cultivators stood quietly on the Immortal Battleship.

They were indeed the group from the Divine Beast Sect preparing to enter the Taixu Secret Realm.

A dark-skinned young Cultivator stood proudly at the very front of the Immortal Battleship.

It was none other than the peerless prodigy of the Divine Beast Sect, Long Aotian.

Two Taiyi Immortal Lords with powerful auras followed respectfully behind Long Aotian.

They did not display even a hint of an Immortal Lord's majesty.

These two were named Wu Tianyi and Wu Tianer, respectively.

They were a pair of twin brothers.

After cultivating in the Divine Beast Sect for countless years, both brothers had ascended to the Grand Unity Realm.

After Long Aotian was born,

Long Yuanguang, the Sect Master of the Divine Beast Sect, specifically requested the Wu Brothers to take on the responsibility of guarding Long Aotian.

Over the years, under the protection of the Wu Brothers,

Long Aotian indeed had not encountered any danger.

However, this trip to the Taixu Secret Realm would be completely different.

Only Golden Immortal Cultivators could enter the Taixu Secret Realm.

Once a Taiyi Immortal Lord stepped into the passage, the spatial crack would collapse immediately.

Therefore, the Wu Brothers could not accompany Long Aotian into the Taixu Secret Realm.

This could not help but make them somewhat worried.

Wu Tianyi said in a low voice to Long Aotian,

"Young Master, in truth, you have absolutely no need to take risks in the Taixu Secret Realm."

"In any case, the Sect lacks no resources."

"With your talent, Young Master, cultivating to the Grand Luo Realm is completely within your reach."

"The Taixu Secret Realm is filled with high-Level Chaos Beasts, and there are also various damaged Formations."

"If any accident occurs, the losses will outweigh the gains."

Long Aotian replied indifferently,

"I have already made ample preparations for this trip to the Taixu Secret Realm. What accident could possibly happen?"

"Are you actually worried that I will be killed by those Chaos Beasts?"

"As for those remnant Formations, there is even less reason to worry."

"I have the Array Breaking Hammer protecting me. Even if it were a complete Tier Three immortal formation, I could shatter it with just two strikes."

"Let alone those damaged Formations."

"Seniors, there is absolutely no need to worry."

Hearing this, Wu Tianyi nodded silently and said no more.

In truth, he also knew.

Although the Taixu Secret Realm was very dangerous, it was not an absolute death trap.

The so-called danger was only relative to ordinary Golden Immortal Cultivators.

With Long Aotian's strength, there was indeed no need to worry too much.

Furthermore, in order to enter the Taixu Secret Realm,

Long Aotian had long prepared various trump cards.

He had prepared dozens of Tier Three immortal talismans alone.

He had even brought along a Tier Four immortal talisman

to deal with any potentially dangerous situations.

One had to know

that a Tier Four immortal talisman was equivalent to a single strike from a Great Luo Immortal King.

as the Level increased, the difficulty of drawing immortal talismans also grew.

Drawing a Tier Four immortal talisman not only required superb skill,

but the materials needed for the talisman paper were also extremely precious.

In the entire Divine Beast Sect, there were only a few Tier Four immortal talismans in total.

Only someone like Long Aotian could obtain a Tier Four immortal talisman from the Sect.

With a Tier Four immortal talisman protecting him,

even a Nine-Star Chaos Beast could be instantly killed with a single talisman.

Wu Tianyi felt that he was indeed worrying excessively.

The Immortal Battleship flew rapidly along the way.

The three of them continued to chat in low voices.

At this moment, Wu Tianer suddenly spoke up,

"The Young Master likely does not fear other dangers."

"However, there is one person whom I must ask the Young Master to pay special attention to."

Hearing this, Long Aotian said indifferently,

"Oh? Could the Senior be referring to that Zhang Yuhe who slayed a Seven-Star Chaos Beast?"

"Yes. This person is not to be underestimated. If you encounter him in the Taixu Secret Realm, Young Master, try your best to avoid him."

Hearing this,

Long Aotian sneered and replied,

"Me, afraid of him?"

"He is merely a Supreme Prodigy. Who knows if it is just a boast."

"A minor figure from a remote place, ignorant of how vast the Immortal Realm is, yet daring to pretentiously call himself a Supreme Prodigy."

"He had best pray that he does not run into me."

"Otherwise, this so-called Supreme Prodigy's journey will, I'm afraid, end right there."

Clearly,

Long Aotian did not take Zhang Yuhe seriously at all.

Although Zhang Yuhe had achieved an astonishing battle record in the last beast tide,

Long Aotian still did not care.

In Long Aotian's eyes,

killing a Seven-Star Chaos Beast was nothing impressive.

By utilizing talismans and an High-Grade Immortal-Extermination Cannon, he could likewise slay a Seven-Star Chaos Beast.

What was there to boast about?

If there was an fated opportunity,

he would not mind getting rid of Zhang Yuhe.

In Long Aotian's heart,

there should not exist anyone in this South Sea Immortal Realm who was more formidable than him.

If there was, then that person should be a dead man.

Who dared to steal his, Long Aotian's, spotlight?

...
