Chapter 979: Chapter 703: Family Seeking Refuge, Old Friends Visiting

"Within tens of thousands of years, it’s said that the Underworld had an anomaly once, but it was forcibly suppressed by a great power from the Human Race, and it was all pushed back into the Underworld."

"That battle shook the heavens and earth, it’s said that even the existence at the Mahayana stage in the Underworld took action, yet still couldn’t match that great power from the Human Race. The Netherworld Abyss was the result of the aftermath of that war."

"That great power from the Human Race was reportedly an ascended cultivator from the Lower Realm..."

Yao Tiannan, recalling some events, sighed deeply as he spoke.

However, it seemed he was merely hearing gossip and knew little.

Qin Ming felt a stir in his heart upon hearing this.

After all, if it was an ascended Human Race cultivator, he was from the same hometown as himself.

He had previously heard Qingyang the Old Demon reveal something when traversing the Underworld with the Realm-Breaking Shuttle.

Currently, his killer move, the Eight Gates Reincarnation Mirror, was precisely taken by the Cyan Emperor from the Underworld.

Could it really be him?

After all, it’s very possible that the other could advance from Divinity Transformation to Integration in just a few hundred years, achieving Mahayana Loose Immortal status.

Qin Ming didn’t expect the Human Realm big shot to be so formidable.

Even the Mahayana stage beings of the Underworld couldn’t suppress him.

He instantly felt the same sigh as Yao Tiannan.

"Brother Yao, do you know which alien races are part of the delegation coming to Celestial Star City this time?" Qin Ming asked again.

Yao Tiannan trusted Qin Ming greatly and did not hide anything, answering: "The alien race delegation coming this time consists of the Wood Crystal Race, Cyan Li Race, Feather Spirit Race, and Earth Spirit Race."

"Some territories of these alien races border the Netherworld Abyss, it makes sense they can’t sit still after this incident."

"Fortunately, all three races have interactions with the Human Race, and there’s never been any conflict or war so far."

"The Nine Spirits Commerce Association of the Wood Crystal Race is quite famous throughout the Spirit Realm, even has branches in Celestial Star City, and often trades with us people, considered a friendly alien race."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming immediately thought of the fairy-like girl Qian Mo Fairy and a few familiar faces of the Wood Crystal Race.

He had just returned from there not long ago, but this time the region bordering the Netherworld Abyss was clearly not the Red-Blue Immortal Wild, but other areas, so he didn’t need to worry about them.

"Additionally, I can share another piece of news with Fellow Daoist Qin." Yao Tiannan said.

Qin Ming asked puzzled: "Oh? What else is there?"

"With the arrival of the alien race delegation, it’s estimated that the internal fight for power in Celestial Star City’s upper echelon will quiet down for a while, can’t let outsiders laugh at us, right? Hehe!" For once, Yao Tiannan’s always stern face showed a smile.

Immediately.

He continued: "The purpose of the alien race delegation’s visit to Celestial Star City this time is not only to discuss solutions to the Abyss issue but also to engage in a trade exchange. It’s heard that a large merchant convoy is accompanying them, planning a six-month trading fair in Celestial Star City, even attracting cultivators from several spirit domains nearby."

"Oh? It’s actually such a large-scale trade exchange, according to Brother Yao, there must be many treasures appearing then?" Qin Ming asked in surprise.

"That’s a given. Without saying anything else, I’ve heard from my master that the Earth Spirit Race is extremely skilled in crafting, and many legendary relics in the Spirit Realm are handcrafted by them."

"The artifacts refined by them even appear multiple times on the Creation Profound Mirror’s Golden Scroll rankings... showing their powerful and exquisite artifact refining skills."

"Fellow Daoist Lii must seize this opportunity! Perhaps you might obtain some good fortune." Yao Tiannan said.

Qin Ming nodded: "Thank you Brother Yao for sharing, come, since you’re injured, let me toast you with tea instead of wine."

Having stayed in Celestial Star City for so long, naturally, he heard of this Creation Golden Scroll list.

Any item that could appear on the Creation Jade Pendant list was an extraordinary thing in the Spirit Realm.

Later.

Yao Tiannan conversed with Qin Ming for half a day and then took his leave.

But as he was leaving.

He suddenly remembered something.

Then he said to Qin Ming: "By the way, I’ve learned something related to Brother Lii. Master Su and Cloud-Fishing Elder, two of your friends, have been assigned to escort the alien race merchant convoy."

"When the time comes, if there are any rumors, Brother Lii can inquire from them, and I’ll share with you if I have any other information."

Evidently, Yao Tiannan had quite a bit of insider information, knowing that Su Yuqing and Cloud-Fishing Elder were close to Li Mou upon returning.

However, constrained by faction relations, even as Star Guards, they couldn’t directly communicate.

...

After sending off Yao Tiannan, Qin Ming processed the words just spoken by the other.

He couldn’t help but mutter to himself: ’Unexpectedly, how unpredictable things are, and such significant changes occur in the blink of an eye.’

’It seems I need to quickly break through to the Void Refining Stage.’

Qin Ming immediately summoned Mo Lingwei and Baili Hui, instructing them to always keep an eye on the situation in Celestial Star City.

He then returned to his cave mansion to continue cultivating the True Primordial Yin Yang Technique.

Accompanied by a Thick Earth Power emerging on him, he began operating the cultivation technique, Five Elements and Four Symbols...

...

Meanwhile.

In the forbidden valley within Yunmeng Mountain, belonging to the Wang Family.

Current within the valley seemed to have undergone intense magecraft, with chaotic Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi fluctuations lingering.

And now, there was already a corpse on the ground, along with a barely surviving body.

In an instant.

A massive nine-headed azure lion beast silhouette descended before the two, with one of its large heads missing.

But after a wriggle of its flesh, it unexpectedly grew a new head.

Nine Spirits Primordial Venerable stared coldly at the Wang Family Ancestor on the ground and said: "Nearly got capsized in the gutter, being tricked by you two ants!"

"You dared to tamper with my sacred food, but you miscalculated one thing, which is my bloodline talent is quite special... keh keh!"

The broken body of the Wang Family Ancestor on the ground, left with only the last breath, smiled sadly and said:

"Heaven doesn’t bless my Wang Family...otherwise you would be dead!"

Nine Spirits Primordial Venerable inhaled deeply and swallowed the two into its stomach, then transformed its shape.

Finally transforming into the chicken skin crane-haired appearance of Wang Family Ancestor Wang Xiaotian, he displayed a strange smile, licking the blood at the corner of his mouth and said:

"In the future, I’ll take good care of the Wang Family’s descendants for you... hehe!"
