There is no wall in this world that doesn't have a crack, especially when it's something everyone loves to see.
Therefore, when the news of Ling Xian's return spread to the Ning and Lian Clans, it spread across the entire Bei Dou.
Everyone's first reaction was shock. They didn't think he would dare to return.
Then, they all had the mentality of watching a good show.
The Ning and Lian Clans were the rulers of the Bei Dou. Even when the Palace of the Moving Heavens ruled over the Bei Dou, they didn't dare to provoke them.
Yet Ling Xian dared to. Not only did he provoke them, but he also caused the Ning and Lian Clans to lose all face.
This hatred will not end until one of them dies!
Even if you think with your toes, you would know that the Ning and Lian Clans would send out all their forces to hunt Ling Xian!
Reality was exactly what happened.
The moment they learned of Ling Xian's return, the Ning and Lian Clans exploded. Every single one of them revealed their killer's intent and anger.
When they found out that the man had given him 50 million Upper Level Spirit Stones in order to free himself, the Ning and Lian Families were so angry that they trembled and almost went crazy.
To the Ning and Lian Clans, 50 million spiritual stones was not much. Even if they were of the highest quality, it was just a drop in the ocean.
But the meaning behind this was humiliation. This was hard to accept.
Therefore, other than the few ancestors, the Ning and Lian Clans sent out all their forces and vowed to tear Ling Xian into pieces!
For a time, the wind and clouds surged, and a storm was about to come.
...
On top of the mountain peak, Ling Xian stood alone. Like the moon in the sky, he descended from the heavens and was above all living beings.
His demeanor was enough to make others feel ashamed.
"The Bei Dou …" Ling Xian softly sighed, his emotions complex.
When he first arrived at the Bei Dou, he didn't feel anything special. But after the battle 30,000 years ago, he felt more complex.
Because from a certain perspective, the Bei Dou was created by the Keeper of Land and Sea.
During that battle, the seven stars of the Bei Dou collapsed. It was the Untainted who saved billions of lives. Then, the Unparalleled Emperor combined the seven stars and created the Bei Dou of today.
"The immortal world crumbled, the immortals fell, the foreign kinds … just how terrifying are they …"
Ling Xian exhaled a long sigh. He couldn't imagine just how powerful the foreign kind was.
Even though the number of foreign kind's ancestors during that battle was very clear – 28. But was that all?
Definitely not.
At least two of them were known. One was the handsome youth who had escaped, and the other was You Chen.
Not to mention anything else, just these two people were enough to sweep through the heavens and slaughter everything.
"It's already been more than thirty thousand years, the other side's heavenly dao hasn't collapsed. A new sacred ancestor will definitely emerge."
"As for this world, because of the collapse of the Immortal Realm, the Heavenly Dao is damaged, and no one can become an Immortal."
"Once the Sacred Ancestor descends again, what can this world use to resist?"
Ling Xian sighed deeply. He suddenly wanted to go to that place and see.
Firstly, he wanted to spy on the enemy. After all, the two sides were irreconcilable enemies, and there was no possibility of resolving the conflict.
Secondly, he wanted to find out the objective of the Extraterrestrial Demons and find out what exactly was the reason that caused the two worlds to fight from the Primordial Era until now.
As soon as this thought appeared, it became uncontrollable. Ling Xian wanted it more and more and more urgently.
Although he knew that this was an extremely difficult task, since the foreign races could descend upon this world, he could naturally go there as well.
However, he had to find the right method.
"Foreign lands …" Ling Xian frowned and fell into deep thought.
After some time, he suddenly remembered the Welcoming Array he encountered at the Xuan Wu Continent.
Since this array could allow the foreign races to descend, then it could also transport them back. Or else how would the foreign races leave?
Therefore, Ling Xian's eyes brightened. He felt like he only needed to reverse the array and he could arrive at the foreign lands.
However, this was difficult.
Setting up the blood-colored array was already very difficult. Reversing it was several times more difficult, maybe even dozens of times more difficult.
Even though Ling Xian was an array grandmaster, he didn't have much confidence.
"Luckily, I memorized the heavenly array. Or else it would be impossible."
Ling Xian softly smiled. Though he knew it would be difficult to reverse the heavenly array, there was still hope and he had to try.
"Just inscribing formation runes will definitely not be able to achieve the effect of teleportation. Only by setting up a true formation and reversing it will it be possible."
Ling Xian's brows were tightly locked together. After a moment of silence, he decided to set up a complete array and head to the foreign lands.
A complete array meant a lot of materials. Array carvings alone were not enough.
Therefore, Ling Xian thought long and hard about the materials needed for the heavenly array.
Luckily, he was careful and imprinted the blood array in his brain. He was also an array grandmaster. Or else he wouldn't have been able to figure out all the materials even in his dreams.
Despite that, it was extremely difficult.
Therefore, after two months, Ling Xian finally figured out all the materials. He couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.
This was because the array required 99 types of heavenly materials. Without an exception, they were all rare materials.
If they were merely rare, then it wouldn't be a big deal. With Ling Xian's capabilities and wealth, it wouldn't be hard for him to get them.
However, there were three types of heavenly materials that Ling Xian didn't know the names of.
In other words, they were unique to that land.
"The 96 heavenly materials are easy. I can get them with some effort. But the three unknown ones are troublesome."
Ling Xian's brows were tightly locked together, feeling troubled.
The three materials were unique to the foreign lands and he didn't know their names. It was impossible to get them.
Therefore, Ling Xian's head hurt. Other than annoyance, there was helplessness.
"Wait a minute …"
Ling Xian's brows furrowed. He suddenly remembered why he was so obsessed with finding the three heavenly materials. Couldn't he just use other materials to replace them?
Thinking of this, his dim eyes suddenly lit up.
The reason why Ling Xian was able to figure out the materials needed for the heavenly array was because of his knowledge with arrays and because of his knowledge with crafts.
He was someone close to being a grandmaster with crafts. He didn't dare to claim he knew all the materials in the world, but at the very least, he knew the properties of most materials like the back of his hand.
Therefore, he could guess the uses of the three unknown godly materials and find replacements for them.
Ling Xian calmed himself down and first confirmed the uses of the three heavenly materials. Then, he began to think about which material could replace them.
This was, without a doubt, a difficult task. If this was anyone else, they wouldn't have any hope.
Luckily, Ling Xian was someone close to being a grandmaster with crafts. Therefore, after a month, he finally thought of a replacement.
The Soil of Breath.
This was a legendary heavenly material that had the ability to absorb everything. It could replace the three unknown materials and it could also combine with the other 96 heavenly materials.
However, it still gave Ling Xian a headache.
This item was far too rare. In terms of value, it did not pale next to the nine immortal metals. In terms of rarity, it was even higher than immortal metals!
Even if it was just one grain, it was something hard to find in this world!
"What a headache."
Ling Xian softly sighed. It wasn't that he didn't think about giving up on the Soil of Breath and finding something else. But based on what he knew, the Soil of Breath was the only thing that could replace the other three heavenly materials and combine with other materials.
"Oh well, at least I have a direction. It's better than searching aimlessly."
Ling Xian sighed deeply and began to move. He planned on finding the Soil of Breath and the other 96 heavenly materials.
