Immortal of the Nine Realms-Chapter 932: Do Your Best, Leave the Rest to Fate
Chapter 932: Do Your Best, Leave the Rest to Fate
As Tai Yin Dragon King and the rest disappeared into the sky, the crowd withdrew their gaze and exchanged puzzled looks.
"Did we... just imagine that?"
This dragon skull was huge, several hundred zhang in suze. It was almost like a small mountain.
Such a monstrous creature was unlike anything they had ever seen before, and they couldn't tell whether it was a member of the demon race or the result of some kind of magical technique.
Li Badao sighed with admiration. "Truly impressive, even when in the mortal realm..."
He ushed the wandering souls into the Underworld. These days, he was often summoned to the Mortal Realm, making him very busy. Even though it was tiring, he was happy to serve such important figures. For other Day Walkers, this was an opportunity that even money couldn't buy.

"As expected of a Tribulation Realm cultivator. Just this spiritual treasure alone is worth a great deal."
Fang Chen stood atop the Tai Yin Dragon King's head, holding two items in his hands. One was a storage ring left behind by the Spirit Blood Sect's Spirit Immortal. Inside were over a thousand mid-grade spirit stones, tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones, and several kinds of spiritual materials.
The other item was a black gourd. When gently activated with spiritual energy, two unique patterns—completely different from Dao Imprints—flashed on its surface. Since Fang Chen had not refined the gourd, he couldn't truly unleash its power. But based on its aura, it seemed to be an earth-rank spiritual treasure.
The two special patterns were likely Spiritual imprints.
Shen Ji glanced at the black gourd and gave a warning. "Two Spiritual Imprints. Even Dao Union Realm cultivators would struggle to activate it. It is more suitable for use by a Profound Immortal. You should avoid refining it for now, or you might end up turning into a dry corpse in one go."
Fang Chen smiled and asked, "Fourth Princess, how much would this item be worth if sold for spirit stones?"
"Sell it? You should keep it for future use. The crafting of earth-rank spiritual treasures involves various rare spiritual materials. There are very few refiners in the world capable of making such items. If you sell it now, you might not be able to find another one in the future."
Shen Ji's expression was strange. "If you really want to sell it, it should not go for less than ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones. If you happen to encounter a cultivator who has just ascended to the Profound Immortal realm, selling it for twenty or thirty thousand might even be possible."
Fang Chen understood. It seemed this kind of spiritual treasure didn't have a fixed market price; it depended on the buyer and their demand.
He had no intention of selling it. He planned to keep it as a supply for Little Sword. After all, such an earth-rank, dual Spiritual Imprint treasure might help Little Sword advance from the fifth rank to the sixth rank. The only thing he had to consider was the time it would take to absorb the power.
Fang Chen suddenly asked, "Fourth Princess, earlier in the Immortal Qin Clan, when you were able to see my divine soul, was it related to the Primordial Immortal Eyes?"
A faint smile appeared in Shen Ji's eyes. The next moment, a gleam of light flashed, and Fang Chen recognized it immediately. That was the phenomenon created when the Primordial Immortal Eye was activated.
Fang Chen's thoughts moved, and his Primordial Spirit stepped out from his physical body. However, Shen Ji's gaze did not follow.
Shen Ji suddenly asked, "You just left your body?"
Fang Chen nodded lightly, a bit curious. "Did you not see it this time?"
Shen Ji, while deep in thought, shook her head. "I didn't see it. Over this period, your Primordial Spirit should have undergone some changes. If my Primordial Immortal Eyes cannot perceive it, then ordinary cultivators definitely won't be able to sense it. Compared to normal Enlightenment Realm cultivators, your Nascent Soul should already be undefeated after leaving your body."
At this point, Shen Ji became more curious about Fang Chen's recent experiences. He had advanced to the Enlightenment Realm in such a short period, and then there was the person in the big red bridal palanquin and the bone dragon under their feet....
Each of these events was full of mystery. However, even though she was curious, her nature made it so that she didn't ask anything
"The clues you gave me before have been verified. Yu Qingzhi is indeed very likely to be the Radiant Sun Spirit Lord. But you might not know that, a few days ago, he died. I heard he had an accident while using the Path of Yin Technique."
Shen Ji transmitted, "The person from Li Xiao Empire wasn't planning to act so early, but after Yu Qingzhi's unexpected death, he sensed a trace of danger and decided to act ahead of time. He's planning to forcefully ascend to the Immortal King Realm. During this time, the number of Blood Spirit Pills that have been sent to him through various means is countless.
"Without Yu Qingzhi's help in alchemy, the Spirit Blood Sect sent a Pill Dao Grandmaster to refine the pills for him. It seems the person from the Li Xiao Empire must have paid a considerable price for this. If he succeeds in becoming an Immortal King, he will certainly make up for everything he has lost a hundred or a thousandfold. At that time, the flames of war will spread to an unimaginable extent."
Fang Chen frowned slightly. "The Immortal Kings from the Central Continent should have noticed such a big move by now. Why hasn't anyone intervened? Why does it have to be the Killing Spiritual Division handling this?" frёewebηovel.cѳm
Shen Ji smiled faintly. "You're still too naive. To an Immortal King, this isn't considered a major issue—it's even a trivial matter. So what if some mortals die or get injured? As long as it doesn't threaten their interests, it's fine.
"In fact, not only would they not get involved, they would also avoid it intentionally. The Spirit Blood Sect has a First Rate Sect Leader in the background. Unless absolutely necessary, why would an ordinary Immortal King risk offending a First Rate Sect Leader over such a small matter?"
After pausing, Shen Ji's smile faded. "What's more, there are many Immortal Kings who, while debating the Dao, have expressed some understanding of the Spirit Blood Sect. The situation is changing. As the resources for cultivation continue to dwindle day by day, more and more cultivators will support the actions of the Spirit Blood Sect.
"I have a few uncles who have even said that, if necessary, the Central Continent could try following the path of the Spirit Blood Sect in the future."
Fang Chen was taken aback. "Is the situation already this bad?"
If more and more cultivators accepted the Spirit Blood Sect's teachings and methods, wouldn't the mortal world turn into a slaughterhouse, where people are butchered whenever needed and sold to others?
"Actually, the best path is to keep immortals and mortals apart, to never interfere with each other. Back when it was still possible to ascend to the Immortal Realm, the Spirit Blood Sect had been small and insignificant. Everyone had the opportunity to go to a broader world and fight for greater things—who would stay here to fight for a few scraps of silver?"
Shen Ji continued indifferently, "Now, the Killing Spiritual Division can only do what it can and leave the rest to fate. In the long run, it will eventually be disbanded. You will return to being Sword Leader Fang, and I will return to being the fourth princess. For these dirty matters here, we will neither care, listen, nor interfere."
"Separating the mortals from the immortals...."
Fang Chen suddenly thought about what Xia Xuanji had been doing recently.
Perhaps this was an attempt from the old man. Like Shen Ji, he also felt that only by keeping immortals and mortals apart could the current situation in the mortal world change.
Shen Ji suddenly asked, "What are you thinking?"
Fang Chen replied, "There are also those who, like you, think the mortal world needs to be separated from immortals, that cultivators shouldn't interfere with mortal affairs."
"There are many who think this way. But while it's easy to say, the difficulty is sky-high. It's probably easier to shatter the Heavenly Gate with a sword than to try to separate immortals from mortals."
Shen Ji looked toward the vast emptiness, her gaze sharp like a newly forged immortal sword.
"Fourth Princess, will there be any Profound Immortals sent to Li Xiao?"
"I know of three Profound Immortals who are going, but unfortunately, they are all Profound Immortals who failed their tribulation and lost their chance to ascend to Immortal King. This has weakened their abilities by fifty to sixty percent, and even if they join forces, they may not be able to defeat the ancestor of the Li Xiao Empire."
Shen Ji turned to Fang Chen. "This time, it will depend on the help you brought."
Fang Chen nodded lightly, "Once we reach their territory, I'll set up a blind date for the ancestor of the Li Xiao Empire."
