Tan Xiu let out a faint smile and asked, "What's your cultivation level now, Nine Nether Brother?"
Nine Nether Swordmeister stared blankly and immediately pondered for a while. Then, he slowly replied, "I've been stuck at the mid-stage of Golden Immortal for more than 2,000 years and have never been able to break through to the late-stage of Golden Immortal. Why do you ask? "
Tan Xiu didn't answer his question but asked another question instead. "If you know the Heaven Shrouding Art, what kind of cultivation level would you usually reveal to others?"
"The Heaven Shrouding Art?"
Nine Nether Swordmeister was surprised. "You mean, Battle Peng is proficient in the Heaven Shrouding Art? You must know that the Heaven Shrouding Art is a secret art unique to Lightning Seigneur, and it's also known that Battle Peng isn't one of his four disciples. Concealing one's cultivation level is something anyone can do, but to evade detection without putting up the slightest resistance, I'm afraid only the Lightning Seigneur and his four disciples can do that, right? "
"You just used a phrase that I think is very good." Tan Xiu shook his head. "It's known to all. But were there no exceptions besides the well-known ones? There are innumerable powerhouses in the entire Immortal World, and there are even more almighty beings. Maybe there are some heaven-defying peerless geniuses who can research the Heaven Shrouding Art that's almost on par with Lightning Seigneur? "
Nine Nether Swordmeister nodded solemnly and said, "What you said makes sense. It seems I've underestimated the almighty beings in the Immortal World. "
Having said that …
With a bit of regret on his face, he sighed faintly and said, "Those almighty beings who liked stirring up trouble the most have all disappeared. Some are dead, while others are hiding from the world. I'm afraid it's hard to see them stirring up chaos in the Immortal World and forcing countless powerhouses to take action. Else, the means of those almighty beings will continue to spread out and be known by us. "
Tan Xiu shook his head without a word and sighed inwardly.
He used to be.
Nine Nether Swordmeister said that he was the kind of person who liked stirring up trouble! Before he met Xue Qingcheng, he had stirred up chaos in the Immortal World countless times. In fact, after he became a Supreme Stage Great Divine Ability Practitioner, he had caused countless high-level battles. Amongst them, there were no less than 10 Exalted Realm experts that he'd personally killed, and there were even over 10,000 Perfected Golden Immortals amongst them.
He had become a supreme being by wading through rivers of blood and stepping on mountains of corpses to reach the top.
Looking at Nine Nether Swordmeister's complicated expression, Tan Xiu slowly said, "The Immortal World won't be peaceful for a long time. As batches of weaklings became strong, there would naturally be some people who would stand out and cause chaos. Some time ago, I heard of a person who seems to be very happy right now. "
"Who is it?" Nine Nether Swordmeister was surprised.
Tan Xiu said, "Hundred Dan Immortal Lord."
Nine Nether Swordmeister furrowed his brows and a disdainful look flashed in his eyes as he lightly said, "He's indeed causing quite a ruckus recently. It's quite rare for a Perfected Golden Immortal to be able to kill four experts of the same level. Great Tang Lil Bro doesn't seem to be very well-informed. Just three years ago, that brat was hunted down for half a year and nearly died countless times. If it weren't for his Senior and Junior Brothers coming out to rescue him, and if it weren't for his Master, Great Emperor Danqing, coming out of seclusion and laying out the Nine-Nine Annihilation Immortal Array to trap the other party inside and refine him to death, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to create any waves. "
Killing intent surged inside Tan Xiu's heart, but he maintained his composure on the surface and said, "Great Emperor Danqing? That Supremacy Stage powerhouse in the Immortal World? To think that he would actually refine his enemies to death just for his disciple? "
Nine Nether Swordmeister obviously didn't want to talk about Great Emperor Danqing and lightly said, "An in-name disciple is different from a personal disciple. If an in-name disciple dies, then so be it. But if a personal disciple is killed by someone else, it's like slapping the faces of those big shots. It would be strange if they didn't act. Back then, when a personal disciple of Star Cultivation Great Emperor was killed, he crossed hundreds of Immortal Domains and personally massacred the other party's entire sect, causing an uproar in most of the Immortal World. That kind of character is truly worthy of respect! "
Star Cultivation Great Emperor?
The killing intent in Tan Xiu's heart was replaced by complex emotions. It was such a familiar name, and no one in the entire Immortal World was more familiar with it than him. It was because he was the Supremacy of the Immortal World.
Suddenly …
Tan Xiu's expression shifted and he asked, "Brother Nine Nether, I heard you talk about this Star Cultivation Great Emperor. I've heard of his legend. He seems to be a very powerful Supremacy of the Immortal World. How come I haven't heard of his name in the past hundreds of years? "
"He failed to cross the divinity tribulation and died." Nine Nether Swordmeister shook his head and sighed.
"He actually failed to cross the divinity tribulation?" Tan Xiu pretended to be shocked and asked. "How is that possible? I heard that he's a true super powerhouse in the entire Immortal World. Even many Supremacy Stage powerhouses are not his match! "
"I never thought that he would fail to cross the divinity tribulation." Nine Nether Swordmeister sighed. "The divinity tribulation …"
Tan Xiu was silent for a while and then casually said, "I really didn't expect that Star Cultivation Great Emperor would die. It seems that the path of immortal cultivation is really full of dangers! That's right, I heard that Star Cultivation Great Emperor was the strongest person in the Rosefinch Holy Sect. He died and provoked so many enemies, so I'm afraid that he'll make things difficult for the Rosefinch Holy Sect, no? "
Nine Nether Swordmeister seemed to recall something and a contemptuous look appeared in his eyes. He lightly said, "The Rosefinch Holy Sect's life is indeed not that good nowadays. Speaking of which, Star Cultivation Great Emperor is really blind to have made friends with two people who are worse than pigs and dogs. After he failed to cross the divinity tribulation, his two friends even threatened that Star Cultivation Great Emperor had humiliated them. The two of them joined forces and found many Supremes and Perfected Golden Immortals who once had grievances with Star Cultivation Great Emperor to kill the Rosefinch Holy Sect. Nearly half of the once glorious disciples of the Rosefinch Holy Sect were killed and the rest are now holed up in the clan land of the Rosefinch Holy Sect, relying on the two Supremacy Stage powerhouses of the sect as well as the sect's protective array to survive. "
"There's such a thing?" Tan Xiu was surprised. "Could it be that the former disciples of Star Cultivation Great Emperor, his former subordinates, and even his other friends just tolerate others bullying the Rosefinch Holy Sect?"
"Monkeys scatter when the tree falls, and everyone pushes the wall when it's down." Nine Nether Swordmeister sighed. "These words were said by a Profound Immortal young man, and all the Immortals in the entire Immortal World felt that it was very reasonable. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's not an exaggeration. Of course, it can't be generalized. Star Cultivation Great Emperor once had countless disciples and countless powerhouses who were indebted to him. Those powerhouses who knew how to repay kindness bravely stepped forward and participated in the battle that lasted for hundreds of years. Millions of people died in the battle, and the rest also retreated after the chaos. Although they retreated, they still declared that if those enemies dare to provoke the Rosefinch Holy Sect again, they won't hesitate to attack them. "
Having said that …
Nine Nether Swordmeister seemed unwilling to talk about this heavy topic anymore. He took out a million Crystal Essences from his interspatial ring and gave them to Tan Xiu, saying, "You won this."
Despite his complicated feelings, Tang Xiu still let out a smile and accepted the 1 million Crystal Essences. Then, he said, "Then this Little Brother will respectfully accept these Crystal Essences. You're a Perfected Golden Immortal, Brother Nine Nether. I can tell from your words and actions that you seem to respect Star Cultivation Great Emperor very much. Could it be that you also participated in the Rosefinch Holy Sect's crisis? "
"Of course. Supreme Star Soul once did me a great favor, so how could I stand idly by when the Rosefinch Holy Sect was in trouble? Even that muddle-headed Empyrean Pole Madam also participated in it, "sighed Nine Nether Swordmeister.
"Madam Empyrean Pole Madam also participated in it?" Tan Xiu was surprised. "Does she also have a friendship with someone from the Rosefinch Holy Sect?"
"She acted on behalf of the Empyrean Pole Oldman." Nine Nether Swordmeister shook his head. "She had a deep friendship with Star Cultivation Great Emperor back then."
Suddenly …
Nine Nether Swordmeister stared at Tan Xiu and changed the topic. "Great Tang Lil Bro, you seem to be very concerned about Star Cultivation Great Emperor and the Rosefinch Holy Sect, no? Did you also … "
"No, no, no." Tan Xiu let out a hollow laugh and said, "How could a nobody like me have any relationship with those big shots? I'm just curious about the chaos that happened in the past. However, it would be great if I could have a relationship with them. At least I can follow Star Cultivation Great Emperor. After all, he's a super powerhouse who's very protective of his people. With his protection, I can really walk unhindered in the Immortal World. "
"Hahaha …"
Nine Nether Swordmeister burst into laughter. Even the two coquettish women on his other side couldn't help but laugh again and again.
Tan Xiu let out a hollow laugh a few times and said, "Even if I don't know Star Cultivation Great Emperor, it's still my blessing to get to know you, Brother Nine Nether! If anyone dares to bully me in the future, I'll use your name, Brother. When the time comes, all my enemies who are hostile to me will definitely be scared shitless and flee after hearing your name. "
Nine Nether Swordmeister rolled his eyes. He got up and smilingly said, "I have a lot of enemies. You can use my name if you're not afraid of further enmity. Alright, I've wasted a lot of time coming here today, so I'll go back first. May I know where Great Tang Lil Bro lives? I'll inform you later when I'm gambling with my enemies. "
Tan Xiu thought for a while and then said, "Then come to the Stargazing Pavilion to find me!"
Nine Nether Swordmeister nodded and gave Tan Xiu a Message Token. Then, he hugged the two coquettish women and walked outside. After walking for a kilometer, he sent a voice transmission to Xiong Xiu. "You can choose 20 Golden Immortal gladiators yourself! I'll pay the Immortal Crystals to the Convict Arena, so you don't need to worry about it. "
"Thank you, Brother Nine Nether."
Tan Xiu cupped his fists toward Nine Nether Swordmeister's back and replied with a voice transmission. His gratitude was only a small part of the Golden Immortal's gift. What he really thanked him for was his help to the Rosefinch Holy Sect.
