Chapter 717: Five Immortals
Chapter 717: Five Immortals
Day after day passed without realizing it, and a month had passed since Xiao Shijian transferred all the cultivators from the Seven Moon Realm to the Beast Plane.
In the Azure Mystic Realm. Sheng Hongfei, who was watching Xia Quxian treat some of the battle victims from the Ancient King Island, suddenly sensed several powerful auras approaching the realm. He immediately moved to help her heal them before taking her away to fetch Chang Tian, and he took the two of them to Bai Lanhua’s place afterward.
In a few minutes, the two had already arrived at the location of the other four women, but Bai Lanhua immediately spoke. “As expected, our old enemies have finally arrived in this realm.”
“One of them is Zu Zhoushi, and he came with four others.” Sheng Hongfei then looked up at the sky. “I’m sure there are several other immortals around this realm, so we should be careful, and we should flee immediately if they find us.”
“Do you think they will find us?” Chang Tian inquired as he peered outside. freēwebnovel.com
However, Xiao Kong’qi suddenly appeared in front of them and immediately waved her hand, creating an invisible wall covering the entrance to the place. After all, they had already guessed that the cultivators from the Five Divine Heavens would make their move after Xiao Hei absorbed the darkness, so Xiao Shijian ordered her to keep an eye on the Azure Mystic Realm. “Zu Zhoushi, huh? I think this is a good opportunity to capture him, so we can release Long Tianshi from his curse.”
However, Xiao Diqiu suddenly appeared at that place, and he immediately spoke to her sister. “Sister Kong’qi, our eldest sister asks you not to move first, especially since there are several other immortals moving towards the lower realms. Moreover, Tian Shiwang is not far from this realm area, and he is not alone, but he is with the two leaders of the dark race.”
“The leaders of the dark race?”
“Yes.” Xiao Diqiu nodded to Xiao Kong’qi. “I don’t know where our eldest sister got the information, but we know that she is never wrong, and those three seem to be headed to the lower realms, specifically to the cultivator forbidden land.”
After he said that, Xiao Diqiu immediately stomped her right foot on the ground, and a stone wall covered the area, giving them double protection.
“What do Tian Shiwang and the two leaders of the dark race want in the cultivator forbidden land?” Bai Lanhua suddenly asked the two spirit women.
“What else?” Xiao Diqiu raised both hands. “They must have never thought that Long Wang would leave Feng Xian’er there, let alone that she was also reincarnated there, especially since there is no Qi there. That’s why they never searched that place before and only moved there now. Fortunately, eldest sister knows everything, so they have already erased all their traces there, and the people of the Seven Moon Realm will also be safe in the Beast Plane.”
Bai Lanhua nodded in understanding. “Xiao Shijian’s abilities are always terrifying; not only does she have the ability to control time, but she also knows many things without having to move herself.”
“Haha.” Sheng Hongfei laughed at that. “Xiao Shijian is the first living being born in this universe, and she has gone through far more eras than the rest of us; even the spirit emperor has to bow down to her, so it’s natural that she can find out all that easily.”
“Quiet! They have already entered this realm.”

“Do you guys sense that faint aura?” A man with short red hair asked his four friends. As they flew into the Azure Mystic Realm, Zu Zhoushi answered his question. “Xian Feng, the faint aura we sensed just now does not belong to a cultivator from this realm; otherwise, that person would not have been able to escape our detection so quickly. In this universe, only a few people can avoid our senses, so I think Tian Shiwang’s guess that the spirit race has returned is correct, and that person must be one of them.”
“Do you think Song Tianyi is still alive?” Zu Zhoushi, Xian Feng, and the other two immediately turned to the woman with back-length blue hair. “I know Long Wang has an affinity with the spirit race, but that old fool’s relationship with them is deeper, and he even has contracts with some of them. Didn’t Tian Shiwang mention that there was a possibility that the spirit of darkness had absorbed the darkness in this realm? According to my memory, Xiao Hei was one of the spirits who made a contract with him, so I think he might still be alive now.”
“Are you senile, Shui Xian?”
Shui Xian’s face instantly darkened as she turned to the man with a muscular body and long gray hair. “What do you mean by that, Wang Zhi?”
“Heh!” Wang Zhi snorted softly. “Back then, I was the one who confronted Song Tianyi, and I injected him with the poison of the dark race, so it’s impossible for him to still be alive now. However, his soul strength is one of the strongest among us thanks to his contract with the spirit race, so his soul might still be able to survive even though his body is dead. Even if his soul still survives today, I’m sure he can’t do anything, and his soul will also disappear sooner or later.”
“I also think that Song Tianyi is dead now, Shui Xian.” A woman with a gentle face and long green hair nodded in agreement. “However, his contract with the spirit race members is embedded in his soul, so he should still be able to contact them. Moreover, we know that his character is quite similar to Long Wang, and Xiao Hei might act on his instructions.”
Shui Xian did not refute the woman’s words, but she proceeded to ask her a question. “What was his purpose in sending the spirit of darkness into this realm, Lu Shen? How could he possibly know about the darkness in this realm if he was already dead?”
“Haha.” Lu Shen laughed softly before telling her. “You may not know about it, but I have accompanied Feng Xian’er to this realm several times in the past, and she frequently spent time here for quite a long time. Moreover, the people in this realm greatly revere Long Wang, and he even appointed some of them to be leaders of his armies, such as Chang Hou.” “Does that mean Feng Xian’er has a special place in this realm? If that’s true, she might be hiding somewhere in this realm, and it would be great if we could find her here.” “You’ve really gone senile now.” Lu Shen’s answer caused Shui Xian to frown. “Feng Xian’er does have a special place in this realm, but she’s much more cautious than Long Wang, so she’s never brought me there. Moreover, we don’t have any definite information on whether she’s returned or not, so it would be a waste of our time if we blindly searched for her. Instead, we should focus on our original purpose for coming to this realm, which was to investigate the disturbance in the darkness.”
“All right, let’s go to Beidao Island now to meet Fei Long and the others.” Zu Zhoushi immediately increased his flying speed, and the four of them followed behind him.
.

Sometime later, they arrived at the forest city, or more precisely, at Fei Long’s residence. The demihumans immediately greeted them, but they ignored the men, and Zu Zhoushi led the other four into the palace before sitting on the throne. “Explain the whole situation to us
clearly.”
Fei Long and the others immediately kneeled in front of them, and they began to explain the events in their respective territories that occurred about two months ago.
After the demihumans told them everything, Zu Zhoushi and the others’ expressions turned serious, and they seemed to be seriously thinking about the identity of the foreigners and the people who saved them.
Shui Xian immediately spoke to her companions. “In this universe, there is only one person with such a strong ice element, and that person is Feng Bing’er, so I am sure she was the one who froze the city. However, she is always cold and never cares about others, so I don’t understand why she saved those foreigners. Moreover, I remember clearly that her injuries were really severe, so she shouldn’t have fully recovered by now, and her injuries would get worse if she used that much power.”
“You’re not wrong, but you forgot that a thousand years have passed, and Feng Bing’er’s other identity is Xiao Bing, the spirit of ice. Although the spirit of light is dead, they still have the spirit of fire, and Xiao Huoli is a renowned alchemist under the alchemy goddess. Moreover, she always fights from the back, and she is the one who suffers the least injuries. She can’t possibly let her sister continue to be injured, so I’m sure she has already refined pills for all of them, making their recovery faster than expected.” Shui Xian gave an approving nod to Lu Shen, who immediately continued. “As for the person who saved the foreigners on Nandiao Island, I’m sure that person is the spirit of earth, Xiao Diqiu. However, I have no idea about the identity of the person who attacked Xie Long, especially since he couldn’t clearly describe that person’s attack.”
“The spirit of air, Xiao Kong’qi.” Lu Shen and the others immediately turned to Wang Zhi, who right away took off his upper garment, revealing a long and deep scar. “Far back in the past, I fought with her once, and I got this scar from her attack. That’s why I’m sure the identity of the mysterious person is her, especially since their attacks are similar and both are
invisible to the eye.”
“The spirit of fire, the spirit of ice, the spirit of earth, the spirit of air, and the spirit of darkness. Five of the spirit race members who had contracts with Song Tianyi have resurfaced again, so I’m sure the others have also returned, but they probably haven’t gathered with those five people yet, and they’re likely still hiding in some other realms.” Xian Feng then
turned to Zu Zhoushi. “Since they’ve returned, and they were able to avoid our surveillance to come to this realm, then I’m sure the spirit of void must have also returned, especially since she’s the only one who could send them to this realm without our knowledge.”
“I think the same as you.” Zu Zhoushi then fell silent for a while. “If all our guesses are correct, it is possible that the spirit of time has already left her private realm, especially since Xiao Shijian is their true leader, and those spirits will only move at her command.”
“Sir, I would like to say one more thing.” Zu Zhoushi immediately looked at Fei Long. “Two hundred years ago, there was a powerful cultivator named Sheng Hongfei who came to Xifeng City, and he claimed to be the direct descendant of Sheng Xifeng. At first, people doubted him, but he then used all of his predecessor’s medical skills to prove his words. Since then, they have recognized him as his direct descendant, and he has full authority over the city
now.”
Hearing that, Zu Zhoushi immediately turned to his companions. “Lu Shen and Wang Zhi, go to that city to inspect it, and the rest of you go to Donghai City. As for me, I will go to the
Ancient King Island to inspect the darkness there.”
