Chapter 470: Chapter 470: Companions

"I am willing to go together."

Seeing the crowd remain silent, the Jade Pool Divine Lady’s face showed no emotion, yet just as she intended to enter the deep valley alone, from a certain direction in the crowd, a voice was heard.

A young man, dressed in fine clothes, appeared, and his aura seemed extraordinary.

He walked slowly to the Jade Pool Divine Lady and slightly cupped his fists, saying, "I am Li Huainan, greetings to the Divine Lady, I wish to accompany the Divine Lady."

"Is he Li Huainan?"

"One of the ten direct disciples of the Purple Mansion!"

Some were surprised and couldn’t help but discuss.

It is said that under the Purple Mansion Immortal Master’s seat, there are a total of ten direct disciples, any of whom can be considered top prodigies across the entire Immortal Domain.

Among them is a person named Li Huainan, who, it is said, was taken as a disciple by the Purple Mansion Immortal Master when he was young, following the Immortal Dao of the Purple Mansion, and successfully stepped into the Great Emperor Realm at the age of twenty.

Now, at twenty-six or twenty-seven, Li Huainan’s power has become even more profound, making him one of the King-level figures among the younger generation in the Nine Provinces of the Immortal Realm.

"I am Wei Pingsheng, also willing to accompany the Divine Lady."

After Li Huainan, another person stepped forward, also a young prodigy.

As soon as he appeared, someone couldn’t help but exclaim, "Chaos Dominator Body Wei Pingsheng!"

Clearly, this person is also a well-known top prodigy in the Immortal Domain.

Jingzhou Wei Family.

It is one of the most ancient Immortal Races in the world today.

Such ancient Immortal Races have immeasurable background strength and are among the few forces that can be compared to Ancient Immortal Sects like Jade Pool and Purple Mansion.

Wei Pingsheng, a pariah son of the Wei Family.

It is said that he did not receive much attention from the family at birth, and as a pariah son, he was often oppressed by many legitimate family members.

Until later, when he suddenly awakened the Dominator Body, did he truly receive the family’s focused cultivation.

However, after enduring much cold treatment from his fellow family members since childhood, Wei Pingsheng developed a cold personality.

And since his Dominator Body awakened late, though he later received a wealth of resources from the family, because the time was not long enough, there is still a considerable gap in cultivation compared to the true first-rate prodigies like the Jade Pool Divine Lady.

But everyone knows the Dominator Body is one of the nine special physiques in the Immortal Realm, which once deterred the Desolate Ancient age and dazzled an era.

If given enough time, Wei Pingsheng will inevitably become an Overlord Level figure in the Immortal Realm, standing on equal footing with the Immortal Masters of various Ancient Immortal Sects.

"The Forbidden Power here is extraordinary. Our cultivation is suppressed, and no techniques can be displayed. If the Dominator Body accompanies us, it can indeed alleviate many troubles." The Jade Pool Divine Lady nodded, evidently slightly surprised by Wei Pingsheng’s appearance.

"The Divine Lady is joking. In the presence of a Holy Spirit Body, the so-called Dominator Body is nothing but ordinary," Wei Pingsheng cupped his fists, speaking calmly.

Everyone knows the Jade Pool Divine Lady possesses the legendary ’Holy Spirit Body,’ which is also one of the nine special physiques in the Immortal Realm.

Moreover, compared to the Chaos Dominator Body, the Holy Spirit Body is even rarer. Legend has it that those with this physique can reach the pinnacle of their era, with all living creatures in front of them being like ants.

One Dominator Body and one direct disciple of Purple Mansion, both are brilliant prodigies in the Immortal Domain. Along with the Jade Pool Divine Lady, three young Kings have emerged here.

Such an event is rare in ordinary times.

"Is there anyone else wishing to join?"

The Jade Pool Divine Lady spoke, her gaze sweeping over the crowd again.

Ji Chen remained silent, hesitating.

But eventually, Ji Chen stepped forward, "I am also willing to go along."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s gaze shifted to him.

"A nobody dares to enter the valley, isn’t it courting death?"

"Others like Dominator Body Wei Pingsheng and Purple Mansion’s Li Huainan are among the prodigies of the present generation. Though they cannot use their cultivation, they must have many life-saving means to face the dangers of the valley. Who is this person, so bold?"

Many began to discuss.

Some were disdainful, feeling Ji Chen must be infatuated by the beauty of the Jade Pool Divine Lady, thinking that accompanying her could earn her favor.

The Jade Pool Divine Lady looked at Ji Chen, her face remaining expressionless.

Soon, she nodded, "In that case, we should not delay. Follow me into the valley."

With that, she took the lead and walked forward.

Ji Chen and the other three exchanged glances and followed without hesitation.

The Forbidden Power within the valley is exceptionally strong, at least twice as strong as outside.

Walking through it, Ji Chen could sense the faster loss of life’s breath within his body.

And this is even when he possesses the Hongmeng Body.

Had it been an ordinary person without a Special Physique, the speed of life’s breath loss would be even more astonishing.

Similar to him.

Wei Pingsheng’s Dominator Body and the Jade Pool Divine Lady’s Holy Spirit Body both have the effect of isolating the Forbidden Power in the valley, thus they need not worry too much about aging and dying from exhaustion.

Li Huainan, however, is different.

Though he is a direct disciple of Purple Mansion, with outstanding talent, in this Forbidden Land without the protective effect of a Special Physique, it’s hard to say how long he can persist.

Yet he still followed in, which shows he probably carries an Immortal Level Treasure to fend off much of the Forbidden Power’s invasion.

On the path forward, Ji Chen and the other three appeared very cautious, fearing any changes.

The Jade Pool Divine Lady led them, occasionally stopping, her jade fingers pinching as though calculating something.

It is known that what Jade Pool cultivates is the Way of Cause and Effect. It is said that at a very high realm, one can even glimpse the fate.

Everything in the world has cause and effect. Just a little calculation can uncover its mysteries.

"May I ask the Divine Lady, have you calculated what exists within this valley?" Li Huainan couldn’t help but inquire.

His intuition tells him there must be an astonishing Secret Treasure here, otherwise, how could it attract the Jade Pool Divine Lady to venture in?

Someone like her, inheriting an Ancient Immortal Sect’s legacy and being the future Immortal Master, wouldn’t risk exploring unless there truly is an astonishing Secret Treasure.

After all, her life is far more precious than many things in the world.

"I am certain there is an Immortal Monarch’s hidden treasure here. As for what exactly it is, it’s hard to say for now," she spoke without concealing from Ji Chen and the others.

"Immortal Monarch’s hidden treasure!"

Upon hearing this, even Wei Pingsheng, usually indifferent, couldn’t help but show surprise, saying, "It’s been rumored long ago, that within the Undying Immortal Monarch’s tomb, there are three hidden treasures, sealing many of his possessions before his passing. If this place is indeed one of the Immortal Monarch’s hidden treasures..."

At this point, he couldn’t help but exchange glances with Ji Chen and Li Huainan.

The Jade Pool Divine Lady said, "If we truly find the hidden treasure, I won’t monopolize it. Rest assured."
