Nine Revolutions Star Technique

When Ye Qingchen arrived, he found Su Moran still sitting atop the small building. In his memory, every time he saw Su Moran, she was always leaning against the railing. Her brows furrowed as if she had some concerns.

”Did you need me for something?”

Ye Qingchen was intensely curious.

He wasn’t sure if it was an illusion, but he always felt that there was a strange, inexplicable feeling between Su Moran and Taotian Palace!

”It’s not that I need you for something, but Taotian Palace needs you!” Su Moran leaned on the railing, her eyes slightly open, ”Remember I told you before, Marquis Guangjun will sooner or later take action against you? I stopped him several times before, but this time he used the sect’s momentum to pressure me, and I can’t resist!”

”What does he need me for?” Ye Qingchen slightly frowned.

He had already anticipated this matter.

Marquis Guangjun was powerful and high-ranking, yet was publicly snubbed by a disciple. If he could swallow his pride, that would be unexpected.

”It’s just a sect mission about Human Immortals!” Su Moran sneered, ”Don’t worry, this time the mission is not just for you, there are others, and the difficulty is still within acceptance range. Once you complete it, I will publicly declare you are trying to break through to Human Immortal, and you won’t need to take these trivial tasks anymore!”

”But, that old man will probably have other means... As long as you are in Taotian Palace, you can’t avoid some sect missions!” Su Moran paused and continued.

”Alright!”

Ye Qingchen slightly nodded.

To him, Su Moran could shield him from seventy percent of malice, which was already enough.

”By the way, where is your Three-tailed Fox?” Su Moran glanced at Ye Qingchen and suddenly asked.

”I left her to guard the house!” Ye Qingchen replied.

Upon hearing this, Su Moran said no more, just waved her hand, indicating for him to leave.

After leaving Heaven-Shocking Peak, Ye Qingchen descended from Taotian Palace and, following Su Moran’s guidance, he came directly to a mansion at the foot of Lintian City. This mansion was quite secluded, like a Jiangnan water town.

Pavilions and towers, bridges over flowing water.

Ye Qingchen arrived leisurely, gazing around the mansion. According to Su Moran, this time it’s a search mission by the cooperation of Seven Peaks, about twenty people in total, but the highest cultivation was only Human Immortal Third Layer!

’This mission is at most tricky, shouldn’t be too difficult!’

Ye Qingchen stroked his chin, pondering quietly.

”However, once this mission ends, I can indeed try to step into Human Immortal... Human Immortal is different from other realms!”

”Besides cultivation! One needs mindset!”

”Simply put, one must have the mindset to control this power...”

As Ye Qingchen was deep in thought.

Meanwhile, several Human Immortals had already gathered in the mansion hall.

This mansion belonged to the Taotian Palace property, so before executing missions, some disciples would gather to get acquainted with each other’s abilities and cultivation, understand the mission’s details for smooth execution.

But once these people arrived, they immediately found something wrong.

”Why does this mission require so many people? Usually, there are at most five or six people... This time there are up to twenty or thirty people? Do you know what mission this is?”

In the hall, several early-arrived Seven Peaks disciples exchanged briefly, discovering that more than half had not arrived yet, feeling extremely shocked. A seemingly astute young man couldn’t help but ask.

”Not sure, I only know this is an exploration mission. Maybe this mission is complex and requires a lot of manpower!” A young woman in pink pondered briefly and said.

”Do you know who else will come?” The astute young man asked.

”Should be all disciples from our Seven Peaks, I estimate the place we are going might be some dangerous area, so most selected are those above Human Immortal!” The young woman in pink speculated.

Everyone heard this and nodded repeatedly.

In the Kunlun Realm, there is no shortage of such areas, whether dominated by beasts or fraught with dangers. However, most are clearly delineated, whenever a sect mission involves these areas, disciples of corresponding strength are sent to ensure safety.

But even so.

Every mission sees some disciples overwhelmed by greed and perish.

”Indeed, the location we are heading this time is the Withered Forest at the national border, otherwise, why would all attendees be Human Immortal?” At this time, a scar-faced young man slowly spoke.

Withered Forest?

Everyone in the hall felt their pupils contract.

This is a woodland located at the border of Liehuo Country, named for its trees resembling withered ones. Also, due to the rampant, violent Yin Evil Qi and the myriad ghosts and Yin Spirits within, it is classified as a perilous area, Celestial Venerable Cultivators face certain death if they enter.

”Thank you, Senior Brother Ning, for the enlightenment!”

The astute young man heard this and cupped his hands to the scar-faced young man.

This scar-faced young man, named Ning Hill, was considered an elder disciple among the Seven Peaks, deemed the small leader of this mission, specifically managing the disciples.

Since Ning Hill already spoke, the information was sure to be reliable.

The astute young man nodded, analyzing to himself:

”So it’s the Withered Forest, no wonder everyone is Human Immortal! Below Human Immortal, if one enters there, they would probably be instantly killed by the violent Yin Evil Qi!”

”Moreover, the Withered Forest is vast and complex in terrain. There are countless fragmented secret realms, indeed needing a lot of manpower!”

Others did not oppose.

Rumor has it.

The Withered Forest originally concealed a complete secret realm belonging to a Ghost Cultivator master. But later, in pursuit of cultivation, that Ghost Cultivator resorted to any means, even capturing Human Immortal Cultivators, refining their souls into Ghost Gods, which incited furious rage, leading to concerted attacks!

In a battle, the secret realm was torn, fragmented into pieces, and the massive Yin Evil Qi inside surged out, resulting in the current eerie characteristics of the Withered Forest.

”I heard, inside the Withered Forest, there are many Human Immortal-level Yin Spirits, even zombie beast walking corpses. Since we know the task location is Withered Forest, we need to prepare some protective Yin Evil Qi pills and talismans!”

The astute young man smiled.

”Exactly!”

Ning Hill, seated with wide legs on a chair, slowly nodded hearing this and said: ”It’s best for you people to prepare before going to the Withered Forest, if you hold others back, don’t blame me for being impolite!”

”We won’t, we won’t!”

The astute young man hastily shook his head and smiled apologetically.

Others also repeatedly said they wouldn’t dare.

Ning Hill saw this, a hint of pride on his face, he hadn’t had time to speak further when he suddenly heard the light sound of footsteps at the doorway.

At this moment, everyone’s pores stood up, a chill surged into their hearts. The Human Immortal’s perception told them an intense danger was rapidly approaching.

As if a peerless beast was slowly closing in. Such a terrifying feeling even made the crowd want to stand up and escape. Even Ning Hill was shocked to lose color!

”Tap!”

The footsteps were already near.

Everyone suddenly looked up and saw a young man in blue, unbeknownst to them, already standing at the door.

The newcomer was none other than Ye Qingchen!
