Chapter 1548: Chapter 1302: Unifying Heaven-Gazing Gorge

"So this is one of the purposes of my return to the Sect. If the Sect Leader nods, I’ll strike out; if the Sect Leader shakes their head, then I’ll stop."

The Dragon Sun Emperor spoke frankly.

He wanted to strike out because this was an excellent opportunity, and if missed, the Covering Heaven Tower would have a chance to catch their breath.

The amount of Vein Qi contained within the Geng Country’s territory now indeed far surpasses that of the Covering Heaven Tower’s territory, yet it is not something that can strengthen the people of Geng Country overnight.

He was worried that if Geng Country were to strike out again in decades, wouldn’t Nalan Muhong and Tian Wuxin be even more powerful by then?

However, no matter his thoughts, the Sect Leader had to make the decision.

Yun Liao pondered for a while and slowly spoke, "Let’s wait for the Sect Leader to emerge from seclusion. The Sect Leader’s seclusion was quite abrupt this time, implying a breakthrough."

"A breakthrough for the Sect Leader, what great news!" The Dragon Sun Emperor, overjoyed, promptly pulled out a Sound Transmission Stone to contact Sikong Zhuxing.

The Sect Leader’s breakthrough was a joyous event for Geng Country.

Prepare the congratulatory gifts!

Seeing this, Yun Liao didn’t stop him, as they were all on the same side.

The next day.

Wenping finally "emerged from seclusion."

To be precise, he walked out from the Undead Hell.

Following Wenping was a headless humanoid undead creature, towering three zhang high, its entire body black and red but with blood and flesh, threads of crimson occasionally flickering through the flesh, making one’s heart palpitate.

This was one of the Gods of the Dead that Wenping encountered in the eight days within the Undead Hell, a presence that could evenly match him. Of course, such evenly matched abilities were based on its ability to resurrect infinitely.

When Wenping simultaneously wielded the Cyan Lotus Sword and the Celestial Dao Cyan Lotus Body, it naturally wasn’t his match, bound to be shattered within a hundred breaths. Since Cyan Lotus Sword was a Sword Immortal’s Artifact, and the Celestial Dao Cyan Lotus Body completely restrained it.

As for the other Gods of the Dead he encountered in these days, their powers varied greatly, with the strongest approximating the Heaven Unrestricted Upper Realm level.

"Since you don’t have a name, let’s call you... Xing Tian." For a headless entity, the name Xing Tian naturally came to Wenping’s mind.

No help for it.

The previous life’s television culture influenced him greatly.

Buzz——

A brief sound of silence emitted from Xing Tian’s chest cavity, seemingly in agreement.

Wenping glanced at the Earthly Cyan Lotus in the pond of Tingyu Pavilion, sensing the continuously surging spirit within, he nodded in satisfaction.

From today, the Earthly Cyan Lotus would serve as a gateway connected to the Undead Hell. The spirit existing in the Undead World would continuously pour into the Heaven-Gazing Gorge, and who knows when a true prodigy, naturally possessing a Thunder Attribute Anomaly Vein, might be born.

The only pity is that the story of a fallen powerhouse reincarnating doesn’t exist. In this world, no matter how powerful you were, after death, you’re merely a spirit. At most, a slightly larger spirit might have stronger talents when reincarnated.

After withdrawing his gaze from the Earthly Cyan Lotus, Wenping suddenly remembered the battle in the Beize Domain, "It should be nearing its end, right?"

Wenping immediately pulled out a Sound Transmission Stone to contact Chen Xie.

Receiving the transmission, Chen Xie stood up in surprise.

"Sect Leader, could it be you’ve already reached the Primordial Vast Realm?"

Wenping was taken aback, "Who did you hear that from?"

"Elder Long Yue, she said that when you broke through, just a trace of your aura leaked, scaring everyone in the Sect witless, even soaking the back of the Celestial String in the Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm." Chen Xie said, slightly in awe.

Hmm?

Was fusing the Celestial Demon Body so outrageous?

Unlikely, right?

"No, no, it’s still early for that." Wenping quickly denied, "Do not believe her nonsense, can’t the back of the Celestial String be soaked with sweat from cultivation?"

"Mm?"

Chen Xie was also momentarily stunned.

Right.

Couldn’t it be sweat from cultivation?

Must it be from fear?

Wenping then asked: "How is the situation in the Beize Domain?"

Chen Xie suddenly understood and quickly responded: "One-sided, the Geng Country army now numbers six hundred million strong, having encircled the Covering Heaven Tower entirely, likely to annihilate them all within these two days. The only regret is that some Heaven Unrestricted managed to escape. By the way, Sect Leader, there’s something else, the Dragon Sun Emperor is waiting for you in the Sect; he prepared lavish gifts upon hearing of your breakthrough."

"Again?"

"Rest assured, he certainly isn’t here just to flatter you this time, but the gifts are indeed abundant. Frankly speaking, the Celestial Materials and treasures alone, if used solely by the Purple Treasure Pavilion, would suffice them for decades or even a hundred years."

"Alright, carry on with your tasks." Saying this, Wenping ended the Sound Transmission Stone connection, leaving Xing Tian at the Tingyu Pavilion before departing.

When the Dragon Sun Emperor saw Wenping appear, he was overjoyed and quickly paid respects while having others present those Jade Plates.

"Sect Leader, we heard of your breakthrough, so we specially prepared some gifts for you. We know you probably wouldn’t regard them, but it’s a token of our goodwill."

Wenping glanced at it, picked up a Storage Ring and probed it, finding countless Celestial Materials, treasures, and White Crystals inside.

Although he didn’t need them, they were of tremendous value to the Sect.

"Take it."

As Wenping finished speaking, Yun Liao and others quickly received it.

Following this, the Dragon Sun Emperor began showering Wenping with flattery as wildly as ocean waves during high tide.

Wenping quickly raised a hand to halt it, "Alright, just speak plainly if there’s anything."

"Sect Leader, I do have something." The Dragon Sun Emperor smiled obsequiously, but quickly turned serious, "With this battle, the Covering Heaven Tower’s Heaven Unrestricted Lower and Middle Realm forces will surely suffer a loss of over thirty to forty percent, presenting a great opportunity for Geng Country."
