The Upper Exalt Chen Qianhua strode off.
The Earthly Young Master Chen Kunhua regained his wits, shaking his head in disbelief, "The Brocade Emperor actually …"
"How did Zhuang Shen do it?"
He had to admit that not only was his elder brother interested in this matter, but he was also very curious about it.
Because this was very likely to be a major event that would change the structure of the World beyond Worlds!
Its influence far surpassed that of the Southern Exalt Zhuang Shen's death.
Unfortunately, the implications of this matter were too great, and he could not interfere as he pleased like Chen Qianhua.
From the Brocade Emperor, Chen Kunhua thought of that dazzling, dazzling figure, "I wonder if there is anything worth plotting in this matter?"
He left the back mountain of the Overgrown Jade Island without alerting anyone.
The Evil Woman's corpse turned into black smoke and disappeared without a trace.
The three Immortal Bridge Martial Saints of Overgrown Jade Island had all been personally dealt with by him. It looked like they had died from cultivation deviation as no flaws could be seen at all.
It was normal for a cultivator in death seclusion to not come out for decades or even centuries.
Even if the other martial practitioners on the island discovered that their three Immortal Bridge bigwigs had died, they would only think that they had been careless in their cultivation, thus losing their lives, their many years of hard work going down the drain.
The grand Overgrown Jade Island, famed far and wide in the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory, dominating the Duckweed Sea, would fall from the clouds after today.
Everything happened in silence.
Chen Kunhua left the Duckweed Sea and headed north, returning to the central Jun Heaven Territory.
The whereabouts of the Upper Exalt Chen were uncertain as he did not have a fixed location, everything going according to his mood.
His cave dwelling in the central Jun Heaven Territory's Kunlun Mountain had actually become Second Young Master Chen's.
Although Second Young Master Chen traveled widely and often traveled, he still spent more than half of his time in Kunlun Mountain.
After all, this was the central region of the World beyond Worlds where spiritual qi was most abundant, far surpassing the other eight Territories as well as other places in the central Jun Heaven Territory.
Cultivating here would yield twice the result with half the effort, and it was a unique advantage.
However, when Second Young Master Chen returned to Kunlun Mountain, he suddenly received a message.
"Yan Zhaoge has come to Kunlun Mountain?" Chen Kunhua wondered, "The Sword Sovereign has yet to return to the World beyond Worlds. What is he doing here? Was it for the Brocade Emperor or for the other experts? Or is it about his mother? "
…
Yan Zhaoge was currently standing amidst the numerous mountains of Kunlun Mountain.
Feeling the flow of spiritual qi here, Yan Zhaoge nodded repeatedly, "Inheriting the name of Daoism's Middle Peak, it is indeed extraordinary."
As one of the Five Peaks of Daoism, Kunlun Mountain's status was different from the other four mountains.
To some extent, it was different from other famous mountains.
This was because this was the place where the Jade Clear Primordial Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning, one of the Three Clear Grand Masters, was located.
Kunlun Mountain in pre-Great Calamity times had been where the Jade Clear direct lineage had been active.
Unfortunately, after the Great Calamity, Kunlun Mountain had also become history.
It was only when the World beyond Worlds had been reestablished that Kunlun Mountain had appeared once more. Therefore, it was also known as New Kunlun.
According to the introductions of Nie Jingshen, Wang Pu and the others, if one were to trace the origins of the new Kunlun Nine Luminaries of the past, most of them originated from the orthodox Kunlun Jade Clear direct lineage of pre-Great Calamity times.
The lineage of the Sword Sovereign, his own grandfather Yan Xintang, originated from the Jade Cauldron Cultivated Deity, a personal disciple of the Lord of Primordial Beginning and one of the Twelve Fairies of the Jade Clear lineage of the Investitures of the Gods.
The Jade Cauldron Cultivated Deity had been one of the few great sword cultivators in the history of Daoism. His legacy had always been the highest attainments in the dao of the sword of the Jade Clear direct lineage.
His grandfather had innovated the old and created the Jade Illusory Heaven Opening Sword which had brought about a new atmosphere for Daoism's sword dao after the Great Calamity.
"While I have never been to the true Kunlun Mountain of pre-Great Calamity times, the abundance of spiritual qi here has already surpassed the average level of the great thousand worlds of pre-Great Calamity times. There are only a few blessed lands that can compare to it."
Yan Zhaoge said excitedly, "The Northern High Peak, the Southern High Peak and the Restful Immortal Valley are probably comparable to the Immortal realms of pre-Great Calamity times."
He was currently standing in the vicinity of the Restful Immortal Valley with Nie Jingshen and the others.
Kunlun Mountain was divided into north and south. The main peak of the south, Qilin Cliff, was where the dao arena of the Earthly Sovereign's cave manor was located. It was commonly referred to as the Southern High Peak.
The main peak of the north, Jade Capital Crag, was where the dao arena of the Sword Sovereign's cave manor was located. It was commonly referred to as the Northern High Peak.
Besides lofty mountains and lofty peaks, there were also many valleys between the two peaks.
The Restful Immortal Valley was one of them. Besides the abundance of spiritual qi, there seemed to be nothing special about it. The scenery was very ordinary.
This was where the most mysterious and low-profile Concealed Sovereign of the Three Sovereigns of the World beyond Worlds resided.
He had been one of the New Kunlun Nine Luminaries along with the Earthly Sovereign. Yet, he had kept an extremely low-profile after that.
Of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the World beyond Worlds, he was one of the rare bigwigs who stayed in the World beyond Worlds for a long time. However, his presence was extremely low, often giving others the misconception that his influence was inferior to that of the Five Emperors.
For so many years, the Concealed Sovereign had rarely expressed his opinion on the major matters of the World beyond Worlds. Most of the time, he would either remain silent or silently support the decisions of the Earthly Sovereign.
However, those who had truly ascended to a higher level would never neglect the existence of such a Sovereign.
As the head of the Three Sovereigns, the Earthly Sovereign usually held a leading position in the decisions of the World beyond Worlds. Other than his own strength, this was also related to the formless support of the Concealed Sovereign.
Due to his grandfather Yan Xintang and his senior apprentice-uncle Yue Zhenbei, Yan Zhaoge didn't have to pay a visit to others. However, according to etiquette, he still had to pay a visit to the Qilin Cliff and the Restful Immortal Valley.
The Earthly Sovereign was currently also not in the World beyond Worlds. Therefore, he could temporarily not go to Qilin Cliff.
Therefore, under the guidance of Nie Jingshen and Wang Pu, they first came to the Restful Immortal Valley before heading to the Northern High Peak.
However, according to the Concealed Sovereign's rules, he didn't have to go in. Since he had already made a trip here, it was enough for him to go through the formalities.
There was no one else in the Restful Immortal Valley other than a few boys who served them.
Among the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the Earthly Sovereign had disciples like Wang Zhengcheng, while the Sword Sovereign had disciples like Nie Jingshen, Bai Tao, and Wang Pu.
The Heaven Emperor had descendants like Qing Shuzi and Daoist Leading Mist while the Brocade Emperor had other disciples besides his daughter Fu Ting.
The other three Great Emperors, including Empress Jie Mingkong, all had successors.
Only the Concealed Sovereign had no children, no disciples, and no successors. He was all alone.
Yan Zhaoge and the others left the Restful Immortal Valley and headed for Northern High Peak's Jade Capital Crag.
The Southwestern Exalt Bai Tao had already returned to the southwestern Vermillion Heaven Territory alone earlier. Therefore, it had been Nie Jingshen and Wang Pu who had led Yan Zhaoge and the others to settle down.
Over the years, Wang Pu had been in charge of all the trifling matters of Jade Capital Crag.
Nie Jingshen spent most of his time cultivating.
They first paid their respects to the ancestral tablets of their ancestors.
Looking at the ancestral tablets of his grandfather, Yan Xintang, Yan Zhaoge felt emotional.
After settling them down, Nie Jingshen bade farewell to Yan Zhaoge and went to cultivate.
Wang Pu brought Yan Zhaoge along, leaving Jade Capital Crag and descending the Northern High Peak.
Their destination was a valley by the northern border of Kunlun Mountain.
This place was known as the Bright Connection Valley.
Needless to say, this was naturally the cave manor of Xue Chuqing's Grand Master, the former Bright Connection Emperor Hu Yuexin.
While outsiders didn't know about it, Hu Yuexin had a cave manor in Kunlun Mountain as well.
Of course, this place had already been thoroughly inspected by many people a thousand years ago. It had long since been abandoned now.
Still, Yan Zhaoge still decided to start searching from this place.
