"There are treasures in the southwest …" In a palace in the Central Emperor Residence's guest house, Fairy Zhining finally said what she had been suppressing in her heart for five years.
But what surprised her was that Ye Kong's first concern was not the treasure.
"How is Elixir King? Where did you meet him? How many years has it been? How was he then? "Ye Kong asked quickly.
For the past 30 years, Ye Kong had been ordering the Iron Prison Mountain to search for Elixir King. But Qian Youren was indeed shrewd and meticulous. In addition, Elixir King trusted him too much, so there was no news of Elixir King's whereabouts.
Ye Kong always had a bad premonition, he always felt that the Pill King had encountered something. So when he heard Qian Zhining's words, he quickly asked.
Fairy Zhi Ning sighed in her heart. The outside world said that Ye Kong was a person who valued relationships and loyalty, and this was indeed true. If it was someone else, the first thing they would care about would be treasures, but Ye Kong seemed to have never heard of treasures.
But even so, Fairy Zhining could not tell the truth. If Elixir King was trapped in the South Emperor Residence, this guy would have led his troops to Planet South Ming by now.
"It's like this. You know that I'm in charge of many things in the South Emperor Residence, especially the business. Five years ago, I was discussing some matters on Planet East Hua and happened to be on my way out …" Fairy Zhining was already prepared and said what she had thought of beforehand.
Fairy Zhining was also a meticulous person. She really went to Planet East Hua a few years ago and met an acquaintance there. They even chatted for a while alone. She believed that even if the Iron Prison Mountain's secret service investigated, they would not be able to tell the truth in her words.
"So that's how it is." Ye Kong nodded and smiled relaxedly. "Then I'm relieved. What does it mean that there are treasures in the southwest? Which southwest is the southwest? Did you ask?"
Fairy Zhining said, "I asked, but Elixir King did not say anything other than these four words. But it has been five years, and I did not have the chance to tell you … I also helped you investigate … "
Fairy Zhining was a little embarrassed. She did not tell him the news for five years and even sent people to investigate. Wasn't it obvious that she wanted to get the treasure herself? However, she was also a person who wanted to do big things. These small details only made her feel awkward. She continued, "I think the so-called southwest should be referring to the southwest of the Immortal World …"
As Fairy Zhi Ning spoke, she waved her hand, and a light jade slip flew out of her Qiankun Bag. She pinched the light jade slip with her sharp white fingers and rubbed it, forcing out the contents with her immortal power.
Suddenly, a vast star map appeared in front of Ye Kong and Fairy Zhining.
"This is the latest star chart of our South Deity Territory." Fairy Zhi Ning raised her jade-like finger and explained, "The star region here is your Middle Thearch's territory. Breaking down from this planet is the East Thearch's territory. West of the shattered stone galaxy is the West Thearch's territory. This is our South Ming Planet …"
Fairy Zhi Ning roughly introduced the map, then pointed at the bottom left corner of the map, at a blurry area, and said, "This is the southwest of the Celestial World! The Immortal Realm is too vast, and there are many truths that even we are unable to investigate. There are also many incomparably powerful existences. The southwest region was one of them! Moreover, after thinking about it, the southwest that Senior Elixir Monarch mentioned … 99%, or even 100%, was referring to this place! "
When Fairy Zhi Ning heard the words "Elixir Monarch", she thought to herself, Was Elixir Monarch not afraid that she would tell her father about it? However, after investigating the situation, she realized that Elixir Monarch was not afraid that she would tell her father about it!
It was also because this place was incomparably blurry and mysterious that outsiders were unable to enter, which proved that the southwest that Elixir Monarch mentioned was here!
"This place …" Ye Kong asked curiously, "Although this place is at the very edge of the star map, it is also adjacent to your South Thearch's territory. But why is it blurry? Could it be that you can't even draw out the star map inside? Or is this a strange celestial phenomenon? "
"This is the chaotic starry sky," Fairy Zhi Ning said. Fairy Zhining said, "The Firmament is expanding infinitely. Even our Celestial World is constantly expanding. Although this expansion is very slow, as time goes by. After tens or hundreds of thousands of years, the scale of expansion will be quite considerable. "
Ye Kong nodded to himself. Even in the world he came from, science had already recognized that the universe was constantly expanding.
Qian Zhining continued, "Over the past millions of years, new planets have continuously appeared in those expanded spaces. There are traces of immortals on them. Some have established immortal kingdoms, and some have formed alliances. They are scattered at the edge of the firmament in the Celestial World, forming their own entity."
Ye Kong was the Immortal Emperor of the Chinese side. He was not close to the four sides, so he had no idea what a savage planet was. He asked again, "Then do the various Immortal Emperors allow the existence of these organizations and groups? Why didn't you suppress them and expand your territory? Could it be that you couldn't defeat them? "
"There are many troubles here." Fairy Zhi Ning pointed to the star map and said, "Look, actually, our South Thearch's territory is separated from the chaotic starry sky. There are millions of miles between us, and there are countless savage planets within these millions of miles! These savage planets were originally at the edge of the Celestial World, but as the Celestial World expanded, they were no longer at the edge. However, they are still uncivilized and unwilling to interact with the orthodox Celestial World. If we want to conquer the chaotic starry sky, we must first conquer these layers of savage planets. It is very troublesome. Most importantly, these planets have not been born for a long time, and they have not nurtured mines and resources. After conquering them, it will only add to our troubles. "
Ye Kong nodded slightly, thinking that the last sentence was the key. The immortals in the Celestial World all had immortal bodies. There were many people who were bored every day. They were not afraid of trouble, but they were afraid that there would be no benefits after the trouble!
Those savage planets, as well as the chaotic starry sky further away, had no resources or benefits. They could be said to be extremely barren and very far away. To conquer such a planet … was it stupid?
Ye Kong looked at the star map and asked again, "What's going on with the chaotic starry sky in the southwest? Is there something special about it? Why is the star map showing that it is a blur? Is the chaotic starry sky such a blur? "
Qian Zhining smiled and said, "No. The chaotic starry sky also has firmament and planets. From the outside, it is no different from our starry sky. Look, you can see the distribution of planets in the chaotic starry sky here. "
Ye Kong asked curiously, "Then why is the southwest a blur? Don't tell me the people who made the star map can't understand the information there?"
He had said it casually, but he did not expect Qian Zhining to nod and say, "That's right! In fact, although the chaotic starry sky is uncivilized, it doesn't refuse to trade. So our people can enter and draw the star map. But the southwest region was different. The people here are extremely xenophobic and hate outsiders! Moreover, there is a very powerful existence whose strength is comparable to an immortal emperor. So the people we sent to trade and draw the star map all died. So we don't know what the star map looks like. "
Ye Kong asked in shock, "What is this place?"
Qian Zhining said, "They call themselves the Dao Immortal Kingdom."
