Translator: 549690339 I

Gu Sanqiu furrowed his brows, “A calamity?”

He didn’t need to doubt Tianji Zi’s words, but something didn’t add up. The Immortal Court sent Heavenly Soldiers and Generals to escort them, and they had already arrived safely in the Kunlun Realm. So, what calamity could there be?

Tianji Zi nodded calmly, “Brother Gu assigned the Pill League to be stationed here, and the Immortal Court naturally gave face, not making things difficult in the slightest and even providing an escort. However, in these past three months, a large number of powerhouses have rushed to the Kunlun Realm.”

With this explanation, Gu Sanqiu immediately understood.

He had been comprehending the Dao inside the Seven Mystery Tower during this period, unaware of the influx of powerhouses to the Kunlun Realm. Now, hearing Tianji Zi’s words, he instantly realized that the Immortal Court was secretly moving against them!

On the surface, they had shown enough respect to the Pill League and the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, but behind the scenes, they had already prepared to make things difficult for the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.

Gu Sanqiu’s frown deepened as he communicated telepathically, “The Immortal Court has been targeting you for nearly 20,000 years, tell me the truth—are they coveting something?”

Tianji Zi didn’t hide anything, “20,000 years ago, our sect came into possession of an item which the Immortal Court believes is related to the secret of becoming a deity.”

“And in reality?”

“In reality, that item is likely the source of disaster. I can only see that if the Immortal Court gets it, there will be untold suffering, but 1 can’t know what it specifically is.”

Gu Sanqiu was at a loss for words; telling this to the Immortal Court would naturally be met with disbelief.

“Can I see it?” Gu Sanqiu pondered, looking at Tianji Zi. His curiosity was piqued.

Just as Tianji Zi was about to speak, a vast fluctuation of Immortal Yuan came from the east!

At this moment, everyone’s attention was focused eastward.

“Over 300 Immortal Emperors, more than 2,000 Immortal Venerables, and over 5,000 Immortal Kings. Such a huge force, there are only a few powers capable of amassing it, and the Immortal Court is undoubtedly one of them,” Gu Sanqiu said, his expression grim.

His Pill League had sent people to join the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, yet the Immortal Court was relentless, clearly not taking the Pill League seriously.

“The Immortal Court has already distanced itself from any relationship, so what if we guess that these people were sent by the Immortal Court? They would never admit it,” Tianji Zi said.

Gu Sanqiu nodded, somewhat annoyed, “That’s true, and the aura of these people is very unfamiliar. They’re probably secretly cultivated by the Immortal Court, or conscripted. I don’t believe it!”

Saying this, Gu Sanqiu rose into the air, confronting the 8,000 powerhouses.

“Pill League Alliance Hierarch Gu Sanqiu stands here, who goes there?”

Gu Sanqiu’s voice echoed through heaven and earth.

The 8,000 powerhouses continued their advance, unresponsive.

As the distance closed, Gu Sanqiu’s brow furrowed tighter; his status as the Alliance Hierarch of the Pill League was being ignored?

At the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, Tianji Zi turned to the seven people by his side, “Assist Mu Xingzhi in activating the Sect Protection Array, everyone, retreat into the array.”

Mu Xingzhi looked at the seven individuals, all of them with Immortal Emperor Realm cultivation levels. Could they be the seven disciples of the Ancestor Master?

The Ancestor Master had seven disciples, this he knew, but he had never seen them, and there were no portraits of them in the sect.

“Sect Master, let’s go!” one of them said, bringing Mu Xingzhi back to his senses.

Mu Xingzhi nodded and immediately began to act.

Far away, Gu Sanqiu’s aura burst forth, his Perfect Immortal Emperor aura was surging. Being ignored as the formidable Alliance Hierarch of the Pill League, he grew angry!

This was an unprecedented event.

However, facing Gu Sanqiu’s aura, the 8,000 powerhouses were undeterred, drawing out Immortal Artifacts in unison. In an instant, a barrage of colorful attacks was launched at Gu Sanqiu.

“Damn it!”

Gu Sanqiu cursed, turning and stepping back to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, avoiding the attack of the 8,000.

Nobody would dare to take the attack of three hundred Immortal Emperors head-on, let alone that of the Immortal Venerables and Immortal Kings.

In the midst of those three hundred Immortal Emperors, there was no shortage of Perfect Immortal Emperors just like him; besides, Gu Sanqiu was a Pill Master, and combat was never his forte.

“There’s no need to be angry, Brother Gu, fall back into formation!” Tianji Zi said.

Gu Sanqiu shrugged, “I was merely testing them. Their disregard for my status as the Alliance Hierarch of the Pill League indicates that they’re acting under orders.”

“We were previously speculating that they were from the Immortal Court, but now, we can be certain of it!”

Tianji Zi nodded, “Who they are doesn’t matter anymore. Since they have targeted our Heavenly Mechanism Sect, let the battle begin!”

Seeing Tianji Zi’s calm demeanor, Gu Sanqiu couldn’t help but grow curious, “Those eight thousand men, capable of annihilating any sect with ease, yet you seem unworried. Could it be that you have gleaned some insights into the heavenly secrets?”

Tianji Zi simply smiled without saying a word.

Before long, the imposing throng of eight thousand arrived, stopping ten li outside the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.

The leader was a stern-looking bald man whose aura of a Perfect Immortal Emperor was much stronger than that of Gu Sanqiu and Tianji Zi.

The bald man stepped out from the crowd, his overwhelming presence pressing down on the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, his voice booming like thunder, “Hand over Li Cheng and the Seven Mystery Tower immediately, unless you wish your sect to be annihilated!”

Looking for Li Cheng?

The senior members of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect all frowned slightly. What was this situation?

“It’s just a pretext; their ultimate goal is that thing,” Tianji Zi said.

These people had been in the Kunlun Realm for some time, surely they had thoroughly investigated the affairs of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect and knew that the existence of Li Cheng and the Seven Mystery Tower held exceptional significance to the sect. That’s why they demanded Li Cheng and the Seven Mystery Tower right away.

They knew that the Heavenly Mechanism Sect would definitely not hand them over.

Thus, they could take the opportunity to make things difficult and obliterate the Heavenly Mechanism Sect to seize that item.

Moreover, by doing so, they could also drive a wedge between the Heavenly Mechanism Sect and Li Cheng, killing two birds with one stone.

Mu Xingzhi nodded and approached the edge of the Sect Protection Array, “Who are you? If you want my junior master-uncle and the Seven Mystery Tower, you should at least declare your names, shouldn’t you?”

The bald man scoffed, “The Heavenly Mechanism Sect is too insignificant to know us, but considering the Seven Mystery Tower, listen well—we are the Seven Mystery Hall!”

Seven Mystery Hall?

Gu Sanqiu pondered for a moment, then shook his head slightly, “I’ve never heard of it.”

“Of course, you haven’t. It’s a name they just made up, and they even borrowed the name of the Seven Mystery Tower,” Mu Xingzhi said.

“The strength of my Seven Mystery Hall is plain for your Heavenly Mechanism Sect to see. If you know what’s good for you, immediately hand over the Seven Mystery Tower and Li Cheng, or else, annihilation!” the bald man roared once more.

Tianji Zi snorted coldly, “Why resort to fabrications? If you desire that item, you may try to take it by force!”

The bald man’s expression grew stern, “Is that so? The Heavenly Mechanism Sect has no intention of handing them over?”

As soon as his voice fell, a surge of Immortal Yuan from the people behind him billowed into the sky, consolidating into an aura that made one’s scalp tingle. “What? If we hand them over, you will retreat?” Tianji Zi asked.

The bald man’s frown was imperceptible, could it be that the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was really willing to hand them over?

No, that couldn’t be right. They had thoroughly gathered information over the past few months, knowing that the Heavenly Mechanism Sect treasured Li Cheng like a gem and would by no means hand him over!

And the Seven Mystery Tower was the Heavenly Mechanism Sect’s treasure, just as unlikely to be surrendered.

If they truly handed it over, then other excuses would have to be found.

With this thought, the bald man spoke, “That’s right, my Seven Mystery Hall’s word is law!”

Tianji Zi laughed, a smile that sent a shiver down the bald man’s spine..
