Aspiring to the Immortal Path C.912: Mountain Water

Bang.

In a burst of rippling light, Tang Jie and Xu Miaoran appeared in the Five Origins Estate, though this time, they were accompanied by the Vermillion Bird.

After spending more than a hundred days in the Rosecloud Domain, they had finally returned to the Vast Wilderness Continent. They had spent so long mostly because they had gone back to their sects to take a look around and stay for a time.

Xu Miaoran had gone back to Horizon Ocean Pavilion to see her father and handle all the sect matters that had accumulated while she had been gone. As the newly-appointed "Myriad Wonders Celestial Sovereign" of Horizon Ocean Pavilion, Xu Miaoran wasn't as idle as Tang Jie.

Tang Jie went to the Basking Moon Sect, where he left behind some of the treasures he had gained from the Court of Myriad Domains.

He had killed many people in the Court of Myriad Domains and obtained countless treasures. While some had been used to refine the Myriad Yin Yang Furnace and some had been detonated on his enemies, he still had many left, which he now contributed to the sect.

The Basking Moon Sect had done a lot for him, after all, mobilizing all its power to help him attain victory in his battle against the Jewel Immortal Sovereign. This had been partially in repayment for his manipulation of Fate to assist Yun Tianlan in his ascension, but it was also a reflection of how highly the Basking Moon Sect valued him. Now that he had the chance, he had to repay this kindness.

Taking out a hundred divine treasures all at once was truly a blinding sight.

Other people risked their lives and took hundreds of years to get a single divine treasure, but he was throwing a whole pile to the sect, leaving everyone speechless.

Of course, Tang Jie didn't intend to go back empty-handed. He had the Basking Moon Sect gather materials for him, primarily for laying down formations, and he also took back the Eternity Sarcophagus.

The old dragon was still sleeping in the coffin, and Tang Jie wanted it primarily to comprehend the Dao of Time. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

After all this was done, Tang Jie returned to the Vast Wilderness Continent with Xu Miaoran. It was a lucky thing he had come back at this time, for if he had come back a little later, Flowing Wind, equipped with Tang Jie's name, might have been able to trace him all the way to the teleportation formation, at which point the passage between the Vast Wilderness Continent and Rosecloud would be open, with disastrous consequences.

Even so, the moment he returned, Tang Jie felt the power of Fate locking onto him.

"Not good!" Tang Jie frowned. "The Stellar Net Gate and Heaven's Equal Sect must have found me."

"How did they find you?" Xu Miaoran urgently asked.

Tang Jie began to calculate with his fingers, but then he shook his head. "No good. The other side is protected by Fate and is stronger than me in this aspect. I can't find out."

In truth, Flowing Wind's grasp of the Dao of Fate was not actually stronger than Tang Jie's. It was just that Tang Jie had chosen to weave Fate to create his own system within the Yellow Court, which meant that he had removed himself from the greater Web of Fate. As a result, he could no longer gather detailed information.

"But just because I can't divine it doesn't mean I can't guess. These people hadn't been able to catch me before. Such clear targeting can only mean one of two things. The first is that their Dao Art suddenly grew much more powerful, but making a Dao Art more powerful in so little time is no easy task, which leaves the other scenario: they gathered more clues about me."

"Who could it be?"

After some thought, Tang Jie shook his head. "Hard to say. I spent a hundred years in Vast Wilderness and left behind a lot of traces. If someone was diligent, they could easily pick up on those things. But this isn't important. In any case, I planned to have a battle with them so that I could kill a few Earth Immortals and upgrade my Yellow Court World."

Tang Jie spoke of killing Earth Immortals like they were dogs, making the Vermillion Bird roll her eyes. Even though she knew that Tang Jie had killed two Earth Immortals, she still couldn't believe it.

Earth Immortals!

These were Earth Immortals they were talking about! The disparity between realms was most apparent here!

But Tang Jie had not only created a miracle never seen before, he planned to keep it up and kill a few more, to which the Vermillion Bird really had nothing to say. However, she was keenly aware of his current level of strength, and this freak was so absurdly strong that the average Earth Immortal really might not be a match for him.

"Before that, however, we have to move this teleportation formation. If it's discovered, it will bring endless disaster." As Tang Jie spoke, he collected the hall in which the teleportation formation was located. But rather than putting it into the diagram, he used his powers to refine it into a treasure and shrink it down so that he could put it directly into his body's Divine Palace.

The Divine Palace was a small dimension created in the cultivator's body by their Divine Will and was much more reliable and convenient than a Mustard Seed Bag. However, the space inside was limited, so most cultivators used both methods. It took some time and effort to eventually get that hall inside.

He then said, "They probably already know of this location, so we might as well turn it into the battlefield. I have some time to get ready before they get here."

He took out the Mountain River State Diagram and threw it into the air, and for the first time, he fully revealed the Yellow Court World contained within this diagram.

This land slowly descended, half-real and half-illusory, like a landscape painting brought to life. As it descended, it began to overlap with the Five Origins Estate.

Despite these being two completely different worlds, there was no conflict. They bizarrely existed at the same time, neither of them influencing the other.

Tang Jie began to take out a large number of materials.

As these materials were thrown out, the two worlds began to seep into each other.

It was a strange kind of incursion, a kind that transcended the concept of space, incomprehensible yet happening nonetheless. Just like that, these two different worlds slowly merged together, like two paintings laid on top of each other.

Then, the Yellow Court World began to retreat and fade, the entire world once more taking on the appearance of the Five Origins Estate. But everyone present knew that this was only true on the surface.

Another, more majestic, world was hidden behind it.
