Eternal Tale

The secrets she carries are far more numerous than those of Bull and myself, especially on Trash Island where there are too many prying eyes.

We don’t have the strength to protect her now, so the only option is to send her to the Dao Academy, where at least the powerful ones won’t dare to act openly.

”There’s no danger, but these dual identities might have caught some people’s attention. However, they’re still probing and haven’t fully confirmed anything.”

”I see, haha, it’s you who came to see me, not Third Sister. It seems she doesn’t want me to know about this.”

”Crossing the World, what do you plan to do?”

”I’ll follow her wishes and pretend I don’t know. It’s good to experience more, but let’s first investigate those things behind the scenes. After all, we outside the Dao Academy are considered her background.”

”I’ll send people to protect her in the Dao Academy. How about Yun Shao’s group? They’re relatively calm and also women.”

”That’s fine. If they encounter someone they can’t defeat, I’ll personally invite the Venerable of Longevity.”

”Crossing the World, I was waiting for you to say that, haha.”

”Hey, kid, what’s up? Are those Dao Academy juniors from some big backgrounds?””Yes, based on current speculation, there might be a Venerable behind those two clans. If we don’t intervene now, with Miss Nangong’s abilities, she can maneuver in the Dao Academy for quite some time.”

”Who?”

”The Southern Domain Continent, Chi, the ancient family of the Mengmu Sea Region, Mu, the Flood Dragon clan of the Eight Veins, the rest are minor clans.”

”Indeed, they have quite the background. Interesting.”

”But this is also a great opportunity. The more forces involved, the more chances to leverage them. Once we get through this small hurdle, the garbage recycling plant will become a major power in the Mengmu Sea Region.”

Ji Yan looked indifferent, his gaze still fixed on the auction venue, multitasking, ”Then we’ll officially step onto the grand stage of Xuanwei Heaven, and no one will dare to touch us.”

”Thank you for your hard work.”

”No need for such words between us. The journey to the Tower of Babel relies on you and Brother Bull. We’re just on different paths of immortality, but both are indispensable.”

”Don’t worry, leave the rest to me.”

”Alright.”

Ji Yan nodded, about to withdraw his aura, but paused, curiosity evident in his heart, ”Crossing the World...”

”Hmm?”

”Caught a few fish?”

”...One.”

”Crossing the World, maybe you should fish less often.” Ji Yan finished speaking and immediately withdrew his divine sense and aura, not giving Chen Xun a chance to respond.

Chen Xun also quieted down, his gaze becoming much deeper, as if he had become a different person.

”Moo!” Black Bull slowly approached, looking at Chen Xun, nudging him slightly.

”Bull, it’s fine. We’re no longer the young Chen Xun and Ximen Black Bull who couldn’t protect those around us.”

”Moo~” Black Bull’s eyes were filled with determination, nodding heavily.

Chen Xun slowly took out a small booklet, a cold smile gradually appearing on his lips, ”The Mu family, huh? That little girl does have something special, able to sense even the severed main body of Third Sister...”

”However, it seems you don’t want to continue your business in Mengmu. When it comes to cultivating spiritual plants, we’re your ancestors.”

Chen Xun’s voice gradually faded, but a chilling sentence could be faintly heard, ”Dare to touch even a piece of my Third Sister’s clothing, and I’ll bathe your ancient family... Mu family in blood!”

A bone-chilling killing intent descended upon the world, and the surroundings instantly became tense, filled with a murderous aura.

A vast starry sky map instantly filled the void, Chen Xun’s gaze focused, his primordial spirit directly entering it.

Black Bull quietly guarded the surroundings, his once simple gaze now incredibly sharp.

In the dark starry sky, the runes on Chen Xun’s forehead shimmered, waiting silently.

The Earth-tier Star Pivot could already detach from the Star Pavilion, allowing two people to converse and even trade within it at a cost.

Inside, there was even a grand starry sky auction, where experts from the Three Thousand Great Worlds gathered to communicate without barriers.

As for the origin of the Star Pivot, it was led by the first in the Chaos Immortal Spirit List, the ancient immortal clan! Inside, wise ones were as numerous as clouds, strong ones like rain, and those who plotted for eternity were countless.

They led the strongest myriad clans to complete the Star Pivot, its grandeur affecting the entire Three Thousand Great Worlds.

This event could be compared to the last glory of the Era of great slaughter among the myriad clans, leaving a significant mark in the vast history of immortals.

When the Star Pivot was completed, the heavens shook, immortal shadows descended, and the world celebrated. It was a truly supreme immortal artifact, beyond the control of any person or clan!

It had completely integrated into the essence of the grand world, operating on its own, merging with the entire Three Thousand Great Worlds, creating a truly new primordial spirit world!

And the Earth-tier Star Pivot was just the first step in opening this primordial spirit world, with the grand auction of the heavens, the main pavilion of the myriad worlds’ spiritual estate, and more...

Some legendary giants could all be seen within the Star Pivot.

It’s safe to say that the true cultivation civilization within has surpassed all imagination of the lower-level cultivators, completely unable to guess what kind of scenery lies within, or how magnificent the civilization of these Three Thousand Great Worlds truly is.

Countless cultivators spend their entire lives only glimpsing the tip of the iceberg, leaving it to the next generation to strive for more.

But the lower limit of the grand world’s cultivators is gradually rising. Countless years ago, lower-level cultivators couldn’t even guarantee their daily survival, but reaching Foundation Establishment was no problem, and later, neither was forming a Golden Core.

Now, reaching Nascent Soul is no longer a problem. It seems like a small step, but this subtle change is terrifyingly profound, and no one can imagine what the future holds.

Half an hour later.

A tall figure cut through the brilliant starry sky, standing before Chen Xun in an instant. It was none other than Shi Jianbai himself.

Surrounded by endless void, there were no living beings, no sounds, only the twinkling lights wandering.

Between heaven and earth, only the two of them existed, as if in this endless starry sky, they were the only ones, enjoying this silence and mystery alone.

”Chen Xun, what is it?”

”Senior Shi, I need to borrow some people from you. I now understand what you said back then.”

”Oh?”

”If I can’t return, they won’t be able to protect the garbage recycling plant, and my sister will be harmed.”

Chen Xun’s eyes held sincerity and respect. He hadn’t fully understood those words back then, thinking they were just pleasantries about protecting his family, ”I’ve already found some clues.”

”Hehe.” Shi Jianbai smiled with his hands behind his back, a meaningful look in his eyes, ”I thought you’d come to me, but I didn’t expect it so soon. You have capable people under you.”

Chen Xun smiled, realizing he had been right all along. They were never on the same level, seeing things differently.

Seeing Chen Xun remain silent, Shi Jianbai continued, ”Be careful of the Chi family from the Southern Yu Continent. When we first came to the Mengmu Sea Region, we found some information. They seem very interested in the garbage recycling plant.”

”Yes.” Chen Xun nodded. The profits were astronomical, and such vast benefits naturally attracted attention.

However, the Chi family had never been overt, with many concerns. They never wanted to dominate alone, nor did they want others to interfere.

If Chen Xun and his group didn’t make a move now, there was still the colossal entity of Xuanwei Heaven, Misty, looming overhead.

They could be swallowed without a trace, as there were connections between them.

However, Chen Xun wanted to turn the tables and swallow Misty’s subordinate force responsible for cleaning up trash. Cooperation would be better, and the benefits more enduring.

”What do you plan to do, and how many people do you need? At what level?”

”Great Ascension Venerable, at least five.”

Chen Xun took a deep breath, making a bold request right away, ”Early Great Ascension will do... Senior, I don’t mind.”

Shi Jianbai’s heart trembled, his brows furrowing deeply, ”Chen Xun, do you think Great Ascension Venerables are everywhere? Asking for five at once!”
