Chapter 1247: Chapter 412: Celestial Master Slays the Mortal World Emperor at Penglai (Four-in-One Chapter, 14,000 Words)

Penglai, as one of the Nine Heavens, has maintained its renowned reputation for many years.

Upon entering it, Lei Jun felt as if he had stepped into another world entirely filled with oceans.

Among the vast Jade Sea, there were countless islands, large and small, scattered like stars.

The larger islands resembled land, with many celestial mountains shrouded in mist, where numerous Spirit Lights flickered.

A rough glance would evoke a slight sense of desolation.

In the past, during the great calamity of Heaven and Earth, it affected both the Mortal World and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and Penglai seemed greatly influenced.

Although it is still a wondrous paradise of immortal mountains, it has yet to recover the peak glory depicted in ancient records.

When Xu Yuanzhen visited here, it also underwent significant changes.

The current appearance of Penglai might be related to that time.

Mists and clouds covered the sea, obstructing vision while also blocking cultivators’ Spiritual Souls from sensing the outside world.

However, this posed no difficulty for Lei Jun.

Xu Yuanzhen had once traversed this place and later narrated it to Lei Jun, giving him an initial understanding of Penglai’s general environment and geography.

Currently, the Jade Pure Heavenly Mirror had also been brought into Penglai by him.

As the mirror’s light flowed silently, it continued to lock onto the position of the Taiyi Primordial Tower.

Lei Jun took the lead, followed closely by Ji Dongquan and Li Miaozhen.

With Lei Jun’s connections and guidance, a little later, Ye Dongming, wielding the North Abyss Divine Spear, would also arrive.

At the same time, the light flowing from the Heaven-piercing Earth-penetrating Taliscript within Lei Jun’s eyes was connecting him with Xu Yuanzhen and Tang Xiaotang in the Khanate Mortal Realm, to see if they were interested in coming to Penglai as well.

Lei Jun still remembered, Tang Xiaotang had previously mentioned wanting to trouble the Western White Emperor, Han Qingtao.

Back in the Great Tang Mortal World, when Tang Xiaotang had just advanced to the Ninth Heavenly Layer, she had once engaged with her.

Ultimately, Tang Xiaotang succeeded in repelling her, but Han Qingtao was cunning and quickly left the Great Tang Mortal World, causing Tang Xiaotang to never find her again.

When Xu Yuanzhen last opened the portal to Penglai, Tang Xiaotang was busy troubling the Sumi Vajra Division, and thus missed the opportunity again.

Lei Jun remembered she always held a grudge about this.

A certain National Master of the Great Tang was indeed conflicted upon hearing the news.

However, at this moment, someone more infuriating caught her attention.

Compared to Han Qingtao, it was Li Yuanheng and the Great Witch of Kong Sang, who had previously thwarted her plans, that drew more of her focus.

But Xu Yuanzhen remarked, "As for Penglai, since the opportunity arises, I might as well go take a look again. Last time, someone felt somewhat odd there."

Lei Jun: "Li Hang? Han Qingtao? Or someone else?"

Xu Yuanzhen: "Someone else, I recall he is known as the Central Yellow Emperor?

I didn’t interact face-to-face, but he seemed a bit strange. After missing out last time, I got busy with other matters and haven’t bothered to go back and look, but I’ll take a convenient detour this time.

You all go your way, I’ll go mine, no need to wait for me."

"Mm, big sister, as you wish." Lei Jun ended the conversation with Xu Yuanzhen and continued forward.

Simultaneously, opposite Penglai, one of the Nine Heavens, the Netherworld, ranked among the Ten Earths, suddenly stirred.

Lu Changpeng, the High Merit Elder of the Inner Mount Shu Sect, who stayed behind in the Netherworld, looked in surprise at Sect Leader Ji Yao, who had just left not long ago, suddenly returning.

Ji Yao not only returned personally, but also contacted Tian Lingfeng, another Mahayana High Immortal who had likewise left for the Khanate Mortal Realm, urging him to return to the Netherworld promptly.

He instructed the somewhat baffled Lu Changpeng, "Immediately contact that Witchcraft Sect member in the Great Tang Mortal World."

"Does Sect Leader mean that there are changes in the Great Tang Mortal World?"

Lu Changpeng dared not delay and immediately contacted Zonghan, Holy Master of the Gu Technique Sacred Land, Golden City Stronghold Lineage in the Great Tang Southern Wilderness, previously in communication with them.

Previously, as Wangchuan’s sinking, the Netherworld was completely sealed, causing their connection to be severed.

In recent years, with the reopening of the Netherworld, although it has not reconnected with the Great Tang Mortal World, the Inner Mount Shu Sect has successfully reestablished contact with Zonghan.

Zonghan’s situation was equally unfavorable.

With Wei Ancheng’s demise, the Witchcraft Sect in the Great Tang Southern Wilderness has undergone earth-shattering changes over the years.

Zonghan attempted to return to the Southern Wilderness quietly a few times, but found it rather unsuccessful.

Not only were the new rising stars Xing Feng and Li Tianqing troublesome.

Previously not allies but aligned in direction, the Holy Master of Yintuo Mountain in the Worm Arts Sacred Land, Hu Hengyuan, also became unfamiliar.

Due to Sun Li’s reasons, the Samsara Abyss Lineage seemed internally unsettled.

But for Zonghan, Saint Ruler Feng Gui also became hard to deal with.

The Southern Wilderness Lands felt foreign to Zonghan.

It seemed to have become much more peaceful and stable, yet made it difficult for him to find a place.

What made him wary was the Celestial Master Mansion at Mount Longhu of Tang, which was also greatly changed from before.

New and old rivals exerted pressure on him, forcing Zonghan to retreat to the Snowy Plateau’s desolation to avoid risk over the years.

But he never intended to spend his life here.

Born in the Southern Wilderness, Zonghan firmly believed in his own strength.

Previous collaborations with the people of the Netherworld had greatly benefited his cultivation in the Ghost Tao.

Under the Surge of Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi, his cultivation became increasingly stable.

Though no longer young, Zonghan was confident of achieving further advancement, reaching the Ninth Heavenly Layer’s Domain of Ghost Tao Divine Descent Great Witch, possibly surpassing his old acquaintances Hu Hengyuan and Feng Gui.

Achieving the Ninth Heavenly Layer’s domain, although not enough to dominate the Mortal World, it would certainly allow him greater freedom of movement than now.

He only needed a bit more opportunity.

The current reconnection with the Netherworld provided a great relief for Zonghan’s heart.

The final opportunity had arrived.

Gaining something again from the Netherworld this time would give him time to accumulate and prepare, granting him confidence to tackle the difficult chasm between the Eighth and Ninth Heavenly Layers.
