Chapter 1211: Chapter 404: Tang Xiaotang’s New Pleasure (Double-Length Chapter)

As long as there was no repeat of Li Yan and Li De’s former attempt to erode the Mortal World from within the Earth Sea, Lei Jun himself did not pay much attention to internal changes among the Jiuli.

What interested him now was the person who had made the Jiuli change their name back then.

It sounded simple, but could not withstand careful thought.

The Earth Sea Jiuli had always been closed off and self-contained; to make them undergo such a large-scale change in their traditions as a whole was not something just anyone could accomplish.

Linking it to the timeline, Lei Jun, almost unconsciously, had the intuition that this was related to that great upheaval between Heaven and Earth at the end of the Han.

He still lacked solid grounds at present, but Lei Jun’s intuition was that the Earth Sea Jiuli’s transformation had also occurred in that period.

Back then, there were still Ascended experts in existence; he did not know if this might be connected.

Lei Jun was currently quite interested in beings related to the Immortal Realm.

He arrived at the ancestral land of the Tanli clan.

Strictly speaking, this could only be considered an old site.

The vast majority of the Tanli clan had followed their clan chief Li Yuanheng in an emergency migration, withdrawing from the Earth Sea, heading to the Khanate Mortal Realm of the foreign tribes, taking refuge in the Lightless Territories there.

One should say that Li Yuanheng had made some preparations in advance.

Although by relying on his own Worm Arts he had a chance to control the Corpse Flea King and seize control of "Li Zhongding," that was, after all, a Great Demon equivalent to a Human Race cultivator at the Ninth Heavenly Layer, and Li Yuanheng himself was still injured.

Therefore, in this scheme he likewise planned for the eventuality of failure.

Thus this time the Tanli clan’s withdrawal and relocation did not appear hasty. 𝖋𝘳ℯ

Most things in the ancestral land had been sorted out and successfully taken away.

The very few items that truly could not be moved in a short time had also been properly dealt with and cleared.

Whether Worm Arts, Cursed Prayers, or Blood River, each had its own methods of destruction and cleanup.

Hence the Tanli clan’s ancestral land was now basically a blank space.

As Lei Jun walked within it, there were still remnants of Worms and fluctuations of curse power from time to time.

"Zzzzzzz..."

The sound of current arose; violet lightning flowed around Lei Jun, the masculine and fierce Nine Heavens Divine Thunder turning into serpents of electricity that shuttled back and forth, completely washing away the sinister power remaining here.

In his dual pupils, the Heaven-piercing Earth-penetrating Taliscript quietly circulated, flashing with faint light.

After careful discrimination, a few traces were preserved by Lei Jun.

The electric serpents turned into violet Thunder Dragons, swallowing those clues that Lei Jun had singled out, but did not immediately annihilate them.

Lei Jun first performed a rough cleanup, and would start carefully pondering later.

The traces worth attention were condensed by his Mana into one Spirit Talisman after another.

Lei Jun studied them in detail.

He did not know how long had passed before he waved his hand, putting away the other Spirit Talismans, leaving only one floating in midair.

Then Lei Jun brought out the Heaven-Sealing Mark.

Light flickered and flowed on the Heaven-Sealing Mark for an instant.

The remaining Spirit Talisman in midair likewise had Spirit Light flashing across its surface.

"Someone connected to the Heavenly Palace from before?" Lei Jun understood. "No wonder they relied on the stars to change the Jiuli’s name."

He just did not know whether that person was still alive.

Once the Fairy Sect gate was pushed open and one ascended to the Immortal Realm, a cultivator’s lifespan would increase greatly once more.

But for most people, lifespan still had a limit.

Thousands of years had passed since the Late Han; if those entities active at that time had not continued to advance in cultivation, then even without calamity or disaster, most of them would long since have died.

Lei Jun pressed the Heaven-Sealing Mark down onto that Spirit Talisman.

The Spirit Talisman immediately began to emit wisps of blue smoke.

The blue smoke coiled without dispersing, as if it were ceaselessly deducing.

Lei Jun waited patiently.

During this period, everything in the Earth Sea gradually settled.

Over in Guicang, after the Great Ming’s offensive declined, there had been no further movement, even showing signs of further beating a retreat.

It did not feel like they were holding back for something big, but more like the Great Ming was once again staging one of its traditional stock performances.

It was instead in the Khanate Mortal Realm of the foreign tribes that Senior Sister Tang Xiaotang did not disappoint, stirring up another major event.

First, after continuously causing the deaths of Saleheng and multiple other top experts, creating a power vacuum in the newly conquered Old Song Territories of the Golden Khanate, the Golden Khanate did not sit idly by.

Although the Golden Khan himself still had not appeared in person, a top expert had come south from the Northwest.

Zongjia, Lotus Division leader of the Sumeru Lotus Sect, at the Fifth Layer Perfection of the Ninth Heavenly Layer Dharma Body Realm and already having achieved a Vajra Body, came to the South in the Old Song Territories.

Whether the Golden Khanate or the Sumeru Lotus Sect, both valued the changes in the Old Song Territories extremely highly, to the point of not hesitating to adopt a defensive posture against the White Deer Khanate and Gray Wolf Khanate, making partial concessions.

The Ninth Heavenly Layer’s world-pacifying Great Scholar Zhu Junjie, if left unchecked, already wielded enough destructive power to draw attention.

Moreover, Zhu Junjie alone could not possibly have directly ended Saleheng, Master Baima, Liang Zhuo, and so many other experts.

Although virtually all the Golden Khanate cultivators present at the time died, Li Hang showed no courtesy to Lei Jun and Tang Xiaotang, helping them make quite a name for themselves in the Khanate Mortal Realm of the foreign tribes.

Without needing Lei Jun’s instruction, Zhu Junjie likewise did not stand on ceremony, spreading the news of Li Hang and the Mortal Tao Country of the Great Song until everyone knew.

Adding the Earth Sea Tanli clan that had withdrawn to this Mortal World along with Li Yuanheng, the Golden Khanate’s backfield was not just on fire; it was practically a sea of flames.

No matter how unwilling they were, they had no choice but to send experts south to hold the line.

According to Tang Xiaotang, Zongjia’s arrival this time had shaken the very foundations more than Vajra Sect Leader Garuda of the Vajra Division back then.

Of the three supreme treasures of the Sumeru Lotus Sect, aside from the Dharma Paramita Bodhisattva Mother Picture which had not appeared, the remaining two—the Solitary Cobalt Vajra Pestle and the Amitabha Peacock Throne—were all carried at Zongjia’s side, his combat power fully drawn out.

Even so, Zongjia still could not assert that he could, by his own strength alone, simultaneously suppress a group of experts such as Lei Jun, Tang Xiaotang, Li Yuanheng, Li Hang, and Zhu Junjie.
