Chapter 289: The Price To Take The Eighth Prince Away Went Up Again
Three months later.
Jiang Lan walked out of the Netherworld Cave.
At this moment, the eruption of the Netherworld’s Entrance had stopped. There were no problems that surfaced in the past few decades.
It seemed like the demons had no spare energy to bother with this matter.
Or perhaps, they wanted to find another way.
In short, he had safely advanced to the Heaven Immortal Realm and had become familiar with the power of this realm over the past years.
He, who was at the early-stage Heaven Immortal Realm, needed to read cultivation insights now and understand the specific path of his advancement.
It was one thing for his Dao to be recognized by the Heavenly Dao, but there should be other things to pay attention to when it came to cultivation.
Just like when he was True Immortal.
He needed to learn to control the Immortal Body then.
If he lacked control over it, advancing would be much more difficult.
It would be slower for him to figure it out himself.
However, with the cultivation insights of others, he would be able to increase his speed quite a bit, and he would not neglect the important matters to take note of.
It would be as if he was standing on the shoulders of his predecessors.
Walking out of the Netherworld Cave, Jiang Lan looked up at the sky.
It was autumn again.
Woos.h.!.+
Suddenly, a sound came from the Kunlun Main Hall.
There seemed to be many people gathered there.
Was there something else?
He had been in seclusion for many years and knew very little about the outside world.
He did not have the time to leave the Netherworld Cave recently. Even if the Eighth Prince wanted to come and talk to him, he could not find him.
But…
Something seemed to appear on the Deity Position.
Or rather, it was already appearing.
“After all these years, is he finally going to completely succeed?”
Jiang Lan gazed at the sky for a moment before lowering his head, not paying too much attention.
Being able to sense it was sufficient.
If he kept looking up, he might be detected.
Right at this moment, he felt a streak of light lighting up where the Deity Position was.
Then came a grand and vast voice.
“Cangyuan Ancestral Dragon of the Ancient Imperial Four Seas Palace.”
When he heard this voice, Jiang Lan was expressionless as he quietly walked on the road.
Although he had no way of knowing the location or the source of the voice.
It was already shocking enough.
From the t.i.tle of the Deity Position, he knew that someone from the Dragon Race had obtained the Deity Position.
He was a little curious about how many Deity Positions there were in total.
…
Returning to the courtyard, Jiang Lan found a person standing in the courtyard.
It was not Xiao Yu, but his master.
Why did his master come down today?
“Master.” Jiang Lan came to the courtyard and called out softly.
“Not bad, Catoptric Deflection,” Mo Zhengdong said as he sensed the spiritual courtyard.
“I merely made some arrangements.” Jiang Lan lowered his head.
It was indeed made casually, although it took a lot of effort.
However, it was mainly to let Xiao Yu play in it.
Jiang Lan looked over.
He wanted to see his master’s cultivation level.
For a moment, he thought he saw his master’s cultivation level, but he didn’t think so.
What was going on?
He had just seen it, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
There was no certainty.
However, in an instant, he did not dare to look anymore.
If he could not see clearly, it meant that his master was not a Celestial Immortal.
He was at a realm above the Celestial Immortal Realm.
Was his master so powerful?
He was somewhat shocked and even suspected whether his master had discovered what he had been doing in the past.
However, he quickly stopped thinking about it.
It was highly unlikely for him to be able to do so.
“The Witchcloud Gathering has started again.” Mo Zhengdong did not care about the Catoptric Deflection. Instead, he started talking about serious matters.
“Master, this disciple’s cultivation is still a bit lacking,” Jiang Lan replied.
He did not want to go out.
If it was before, he could have gone out for a trip. However…
If he went out now, everything would be exposed, and he would almost certainly die.
The most important thing now was to calm down and cultivate in seclusion.
“Is it because you don’t want to go out or is it because you don’t want to partic.i.p.ate in it?” Mo Zhengdong looked at Jiang Lan with a faint smile.
Jiang Lan was confused.
“Master, what do you mean?” Jiang Lan asked.
“You don’t need to go out.” Mo Zhengdong looked at Jiang Lan and said.
“The Witchcloud Gathering will be held outside Kunlun. Go and take a look.”
“…” No wonder there had just been noise outside.
This was exactly what his master wanted.
However, with so many geniuses gathered, there was no lack of battles.
It was impossible that this gathering would finish without a storm.
He hoped no one would mess with him.
It would be good if everyone was nice and cordial.
In the end, Jiang Lan agreed. Since he didn’t have to leave Kunlun, there was no reason for him to refuse.
After his master left, Jiang Lan headed towards the Jade Pool.
He wanted to see if his Senior Sister had come out of seclusion.
Before he left, he watered the vegetative egg and Udumbara Flower with spirit liquid.
Even after several decades, they were still as strong as ever.
These two did not die. His master must have found time to help him water them with spirit liquid.
On the road to the Jade Pool, Jiang Lan started to think.
Xiao Yu would already be at the perfected Void Refinement Realm when she came out of seclusion. His cultivation base was still at the early-stage Void Refinement Realm on the surface while his hidden cultivation base was at the mid-stage Void Refinement Realm.
On the surface, it would take another thirty to forty years for his cultivation to advance.
Arriving at the edge of the Jade Pool, he found the place where he had left the message earlier. This place was covered by his array formation.
Ordinary people would not be able to detect it.
Only Xiao Yu could.
When Jiang Lan came over, there was another message. “I’m still in seclusion. Junior Brother, remember to wait for me to come out of seclusion(Cute Emoji).”
Jiang Lan: “…”
Then, he left a message which said, “I’ll wait for you.”
After leaving Kunlun, Jiang Lan wanted to find out more about the Witchcloud Gathering.
He hoped that everyone would be friendly and low-key.
However, he, who had just advanced, urgently wanted to read the cultivation insights of the Heaven Immortal Realm.
Without any hesitation, he returned to the Ninth Summit and went to the library.
He began to examine the cultivation insights inside the library.
He flipped through the book that his master had left behind.
A moment later.
Previously in the Kunlun Hidden Library, he had found out that one could only advance to become a Celestial Immortal when their own Dao was approved by the Heavenly Dao.
His master’s cultivation insight also wrote about the Dao.
However, it also said that Dao was not everything. There was still the cultivation aspect.
Dao was a process of comprehension.
The cultivation process was to cultivate the Golden Body.
One needed to refine his Immortal Body to become a Golden Body and have his Dao approved by the Heavenly Dao. Only by doing both could one become a top Celestial Immortal.
Then, he continued browsing through the book for a while. He didn’t see the expected time for one to advance to become a Celestial Immortal from a Heaven Immortal.
Not yet.
So far, he had noted everything that he needed to pay attention to.
This could prevent himself from going astray.
“Brother-in-law, Brother-in-law, I heard that you’ve come out of seclusion.”
A voice suddenly sounded.
Jiang Lan looked outside curiously.
He was puzzled.
He had just come out of seclusion today. Who had the Eighth Prince heard it from?
Jiang Lan put the book back and walked out to the square.
As soon as he went out, he saw the Eighth Prince, who was panicking.
Jiang Lan was shocked.
At this moment, the Eighth Prince had another strand of fortuitous opportunity on him.
Did it come from the Cangyuan Ancestral Dragon of the Dragon Race?
“His value has increased again,” Jiang Lan thought.
The Dragon Race did not redeem the Eighth Prince last time. This time, they definitely had to raise their offer even higher. Otherwise, there was no way Kunlun would give the Eighth Prince back.
Whether he could leave Kunlun in this lifetime was another story.
“Did something happen?” Jiang Lan came to the Eighth Prince and asked.
He might know what had happened.
The Eighth Prince looked around. After confirming that no one was around, he said.
“Brother-in-law, you won’t believe me. I heard a third voice. It should be from my race this time. After that, I had the feeling that I have an even smaller chance of going back now.”
The Eighth Prince knew his place.
Jiang Lan was a little surprised when he heard that.
Because when he approached the Eighth Prince, he felt that his control of the Deity Position had made some progress.
This…
The Eighth Prince had such an effect?
“Aren’t you living comfortably here anyways?” Jiang Lan asked.
There was a reason why the Eighth Prince was worth so much. The Eighth Prince, who had three fortuitous opportunities, was very valuable.
It was surprising.
“That’s right. I feel that I will definitely live here for a long time in the future. Therefore, I want to buy a mountain from Kunlun. I want to establish myself as the king at the foot of Kunlun.
I will be the Third Boss. Brother-in-law and my sister will be the First and Second Boss.” The Eighth Prince spoke.
Jiang Lan: “…”
