In the beginning, everyone looked down on True Monarch Jian Chen's actions. However, after a moment of lamentation, all of them changed their attitudes.
After all, even if they were in his shoes, they might have given up their dignity and cried for help like True Monarch Jian Chen in order to save their own lives.
After all, to be able to cultivate to the late Dongxu Realm, one had to go through a lot of hardships and obstacles. He had to go through an unimaginable amount of effort and perseverance to be able to succeed.
With his current cultivation, he was only a step away from passing the tribulation. Under such circumstances, no one would be willing to die so easily. They would not be willing to watch their efforts go down the drain.
True Monarch Jian Chen's actions were not just his final struggle. It was the epitome of the entire cultivation world. Therefore, everyone quickly expressed their understanding.
Although they understood, they were still happy to watch such a good show. After all, True Monarch Jian Chen's actions led to his current situation. This could be considered karma.
In the face of True Monarch Jian Chen's pleas for help, Transit Star Monarch chose to remain silent. He was unwilling to say anything more. He left True Monarch Jian Chen's life to Luo Ping and the others.
"Transit Star Monarch is indeed a righteous person. He is not soft-hearted at all. When his disciple has no more value, he gave up so easily. He did not even frown. No wonder he was able to cultivate to his current level."
"I don't care if you save this despicable person or not. You better release Xiao Yan immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless."
Helian Huozhi mocked Transit Star Monarch. Then, he demanded Transit Star Monarch to release Xiao Yan. Otherwise, he would attack immediately.
"Hahaha, what a merciless attack. You are only a Second Tribulation Loose Immortal now. How dare you say such big words? As your martial uncle, I would like to see how merciless you are."
Transit Star Monarch laughed.
According to seniority, he was Helian Huozhi's martial uncle. He had advanced to the Mahayana Realm many years earlier than Helian Huozhi. Even though Helian Huozhi was extremely talented and cultivated quickly, he was only a Second Tribulation Loose Immortal now.
The Transit Star Monarch had already reached the half-step Pseudo Immortal Stage. Unless Helian Huozhi advanced further and became a Three Tribulation Scattered Immortal, he might be able to contend against the Transit Star Monarch.
Although the Transit Star Monarch said so, he was still shocked by Helian Huochi's strength. Helian Huochi had only restrained him and didn't confront him head-on. However, it was still difficult for him to get rid of Helian Huochi easily. It was enough to see that Helian Huochi's methods were brilliant.
"So what if you're a Second Tribulation Scattered Celestial? We'll only know who's stronger and who's weaker after the battle. If you're not afraid of me, why don't you just attack me directly instead of wasting your breath here?"
Helian Huozhi said indifferently.
"Fine, fine, fine. Since you don't know what's good for you, then don't blame me. Today, I'll show you what true strength is."
Just as the Transit Star Lord was about to make his move, another figure appeared in the void, stopping him from making his move.
"Brother Ling Ri, please wait!"
Everyone looked over when they heard the voice. When they saw the appearance of the person, they were relieved.
"Brother Ling Ri, Brother Helian, I wonder if the two of you can give me some face and refrain from fighting in the Thunder Crane City. After all, the Thunder Crane City is the headquarters of our Chamber of Commerce. We can't let the city be destroyed because of your personal grudges, right?"
"Moreover, there are countless cultivators from the Human race and the Demon Race gathered in the Thunder Crane City. If the two of you really fight here, you'll definitely hurt the innocent. Blood will flow like a river. I'm afraid it'll affect your Dao Heart."
The person who suddenly appeared seemed to be asking the two of them not to fight. However, his words were firm and unyielding. It was more like a warning.
In the end, he even reminded the two of them that if they were to kill the innocent, it would affect their Dao Heart.
Although the masters of the Mahayana Stage had already crossed the Heaven Realm, if they killed too many people before they ascended, it was still possible to trigger the Inner Demon, which would affect the transformation of the True Core Power into Immortal Core Power. It was even possible to trigger the Inner Demon Tribulation again.
As for the Loose Immortals, they had to go through the Heavenly Tribulation once every thousand years. The power of the Heavenly Tribulation would gradually increase. If they killed too many people and the Heavenly Tribulation this time was too powerful, the Heavenly Tribulation in the future would be even more powerful.
Therefore, when the Transit Star Lord and Helian Huozhi heard the warning, they immediately calmed down and stopped the battle that was about to start.
"I came to the Thunder Crane City abruptly without informing Brother Lei He. I hope Brother Lei He won't be offended."
"Brother Lei He is right. The Thunder Crane City is not suitable for battle. However, I wonder what the other party's attitude is."
The Transit Star Lord said, expressing his rashness before he threw the question to Helian Huozhi.
"Hmph, not everyone likes to kill the innocent like you. You can do whatever you want to achieve your goal, but I can't."
"Brother Lei He, I hope you can forgive me for my previous offense."
Helian Huozhi looked at True Monarch Jian Chen with disdain. Then, he apologized to True Monarch Lightning Crane.
"Haha, it's fine. I've heard about the enmity between the two of you. It's all because of the treasure map of the ancient ruins."
"It was precisely because of this treasure map that Brother Helian almost died ten thousand years ago. It also caused your family to almost lose their lives. Today, it even caused Xiao Yan to be dragged in and imprisoned by Brother Ling Ri."
"The root of all this is because of that treasure map. In my opinion, how about this? Brother Ling Ri, you release Xiao Yan and Brother Helian, you take out the treasure map. Let's take a look and see if it's really the ancient ruins."
True Monarch Lightning Crane's tone changed. He actually became a mediator and wanted to mediate the enmity between the Transit Star Lord and Helian Huozhi.
However, when the two of them heard his words, they revealed the same expression. Their faces changed and they looked displeased.
The two of them immediately understood True Monarch Lightning Crane's intentions. He wanted to look at the treasure map of the ancient ruins together. As for mediating, it was just an excuse.
"Brother Lei He is right. Why should we cause a ruckus over a treasure map? The two of you are experts who have cultivated for tens of thousands of years. Can't you see through this?"
"What we're after is nothing more than ascending to the Immortal Domain, cultivating a better cultivation method and coming into contact with a higher level world. We're pursuing the pinnacle of cultivation step by step."
"Although Brother Ling Ri's actions back then were despicable and shameless, it was to achieve his goal. Since Brother Helian has survived, I think the enmity between the two of you should be resolved."
"Brother Helian, as long as you take out the treasure map and we study it, I believe Brother Ling Ri will definitely release Xiao Yan."
Another voice rang out in the void. At the same time, a figure appeared out of thin air and stood before Helian Huozhi and the others.
"Fengyun Star Lord!"
Seeing the appearance of this person, True Monarch Lightning Crane was a little surprised.
At this moment, several figures appeared in the void at the same time. This made True Monarch Lightning Crane's face turn extremely ugly.
The crowd of onlookers below were all stunned. None of them dared to breathe loudly. They were very quiet and well-behaved.
"All these Great Ascension Stage old fellows have appeared. It seems like they're after the treasure map of the ancient ruins in Senior Helian's hands."
"I really didn't expect the temptation of the ancient ruins to be so great that even these Great Ascension Stage old fellows are drooling over it."
Looking at the dozens of figures above, Luo Ping was quite surprised. His interest in the ancient ruins increased by a lot.
In the ancient times, the density of the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was unimaginable. The cultivation speed of the cultivators at that time was at least a hundred times faster than now. The number of experts was also quite terrifying.
Legend has it that the Great Ascension Stage was not the strongest in the Cultivation Domain at that time. There were many Immortal Realm experts above the Great Ascension Stage.
However, with the loss of the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, it was difficult for those who reached the Great Ascension Stage to advance if they did not ascend.
It was probably because of this that the restriction of the Heavenly Tribulation for those at the Late Void Transformation Stage appeared. In other words, the Immortals of the Upper Region knew the changes in the Cultivation Domain like the back of their hands.
"I truly didn't expect that all of you would gather here so soon. It's truly an honor for my Lightning Crane City to have all of you gathered here."
"I guess everyone's purpose of coming here should be for the treasure map of the ancient ruins in Brother Helian's hands, right?"
True Monarch Lightning Crane said to everyone after recovering from his shock.
The powerhouses of the Dacheng stage who appeared at this moment were all those who worked together to deal with the three Demon Ancestors in the previous war between the three clans. Even the two Demon Emperors of the monster race appeared, which was enough to show how attractive the ancient ruins were.
"Of course. In the ancient times, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was extremely dense. There were countless Heavenly Treasures and Earthly Treasures. Even the number of False Immortal Realm experts was frightening."
"There must be a lot of treasures in the ruins of that era. There might even be the inheritance of False Immortal Realm experts. How can we not be tempted?"
"Don't think that we're Great Ascension Stage experts who stand at the peak of the Cultivation Domain. Once we ascend to the Immortal Domain, we'll be nothing more than ants. If we don't have some life-saving means, we might die very quickly in the Immortal Domain."
True Monarch Lightning Crane admitted his purpose of coming here. Since everyone had the same purpose, there was no need to hide anything.
Great Ascension Stage experts like them were close to ascending to the Immortal Domain. Especially Vast Sky Starlord of the Immortal Confucian Sect, who would ascend in a few years.
Although they stood at the peak of the Cultivation Domain, once they ascended, they would be nothing more than ants. After all, in the Immortal Domain, False Immortals were the lowest level of Immortals.
Therefore, the ancient ruins were very important to them. As long as they could enter and obtain some treasures, or even the inheritance of False Immortal Realm experts, it would greatly increase their chances of survival.
Hearing Fengyun Star Lord's words, everyone nodded in agreement. Clearly, they all had the same thoughts in their hearts. At this moment, Thunder Crane Star Lord's words changed everyone's train of thought as they realized a problem.
"Eh, something's not right. Why isn't the Star Moon Chamber of Commerce's Star Moon Immortals here?"
